the guarantors listed on the signature pages hereto (collectively, the “Guarantors,” and together with the Company, the “Issuers”). 
  
 The Securities will have the benefit of a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights

of the neuter in this Agreement shall include the feminine and masculine wherever appropriate. Certain terms used herein are defined in Section 18 hereof.

 In connection with
the sale of the Securities, the Issuers have prepared a preliminary offering memorandum, dated July 22, 2004 (as amended or supplemented at the date thereof, including any and all exhibits thereto and any information incorporated by reference
therein, the “Preliminary Memorandum”), and a final offering memorandum, dated August 3, 2004 (as amended or supplemented at the Execution Time, including any and all exhibits thereto and any information incorporated by reference
therein, the “Final Memorandum”). Each of the Preliminary Memorandum and the Final Memorandum sets forth certain information concerning the Issuers and the Securities. Each of the Issuers hereby confirms that it has authorized the
use of the Preliminary Memorandum and the Final Memorandum, and any amendment or supplement thereto, in connection with the offer and sale of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers as contemplated by this Agreement, the Preliminary Memorandum and
the Final Memorandum. Unless stated to the contrary, any references herein to the terms “amend”, “amendment” or “supplement” with respect to the Final Memorandum shall be deemed to refer to and include any information

transfer taxes in connection with the original issuance and sale of the Securities; (vi) the printing (or reproduction) and delivery of this Agreement, any blue sky memorandum and all other agreements or documents printed (or reproduced) and
delivered in connection with the offering of the Securities; (vii) any registration or qualification of the Securities for offer and sale under the securities or blue sky laws of the several states and any other jurisdictions specified pursuant to
Section 5(d) (including filing fees and the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the Initial Purchasers relating to such registration and qualification); (viii) admitting the Securities for trading in the PORTAL Market; (ix) the
transportation and other expenses incurred by or on behalf of Company representatives in connection with presentations to prospective purchasers of the Securities; (x) the fees and expenses of the Issuers’ accountants and the fees and expenses
of counsel (including local and special counsel) for the Issuers; and (xi) all other costs and expenses incident to the performance by the Issuers of their obligations hereunder. It is understood, however, that the Initial Purchasers will pay all of
their own costs and expenses, including the fees of their counsel, transfer taxes, fees and commissions on resale of any of the securities by them, and any advertising expenses connected with any offers they may make. 
  

 -9- 

 (l) The Company will, for a period of twelve months following the Execution Time, furnish
to the Representative (i) all reports or other communications (financial or other) generally made available to stockholders, and deliver such reports and communications to the Representative as soon as they are available, unless such documents are
furnished to or filed with the Commission or any securities exchange on which any class of securities of the Company is listed and generally made available to the public and (ii) such additional information concerning the business and financial
condition of the Company as Representative may from time to time reasonably request (such statements to be on a consolidated basis to the extent the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries are consolidated in reports furnished to stockholders).

  
 (m) Each Issuer will comply with all
applicable securities and other laws, rules and regulations, including, without limitation, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and use its best efforts to cause each of their directors and officers, in their capacities as such, to comply with such laws, rules
and regulations, including, without limitation, the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. 
  
 6. Conditions to the Obligations of the Initial Purchasers. The obligations of the Initial Purchasers to purchase the Securities shall be subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the
Issuers contained herein at the Execution Time and the Closing Date, to the accuracy of the statements of the Issuers made in any certificates pursuant to the provisions hereof, to the performance by the Issuers of their respective obligations
hereunder and to the following additional conditions: 
  
 (a) The
Representative shall have received from Kramer Levin Naftalis & Frankel LLP, counsel for the Company, an opinion, dated the Closing Date and addressed to the Representative, substantially in the form of Annex A attached hereto.

  
 (b) The Representative shall have received from John R.
Wagner, General Counsel for the Issuers, the opinion, dated the Closing Date and addressed to the Representative, substantially in the form of Annex B attached hereto. 
  
 (c) The Representative shall have received from Cahill Gordon & Reindel LLP, counsel for the Initial Purchasers, such
opinion or opinions, dated the Closing Date and addressed to the Representative, with respect to the issuance and sale of the Securities, the Indenture, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Final Memorandum (as amended or supplemented at the
Closing Date) and other related matters as the Representative may reasonably require, and each of the Issuers shall have furnished to such counsel such documents as they request for the purpose of enabling them to pass upon such matters. 

 
 (d) The Company shall have furnished to the Representative a certificate
of the Company, signed by (x) the Chairman of the Board or the President and (y) the principal financial or accounting officer of the Company, dated the Closing Date, to the effect that the signers of such certificate have reviewed the Final
Memorandum, any amendment or supplement to the Final Memorandum and this Agreement and that: 
  
 (i) the representations and warranties of each Issuer in this Agreement are true and correct on and as of the Closing Date with the same
effect as if made on the Closing Date, and each Issuer has complied with all the agreements and satisfied all the conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied hereunder at or prior to the Closing Date; and 
  
 (ii) since the date of the most recent financial statements
included or incorporated by reference in the Final Memorandum (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto), there has been no material adverse change to the condition (financial or otherwise), earnings, business or properties of the Company
and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business, except as set forth in or contemplated in the Final Memorandum (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto). 
  
 (e) At the Execution Time and at the Closing Date, the Issuers shall have
requested and caused BDO Seidman, LLP to furnish to the Representative, a “comfort” letter, dated as of the Execution Time and 
  

 -10- 

 a bring-down “comfort letter”, dated as of the Closing Date, in form and substance satisfactory to the
Representative, confirming that they are independent accountants within the meaning of the Exchange Act and the applicable rules and regulations thereunder and confirming certain matters with respect to the audited and unaudited financial statements
and other financial and accounting information contained in the Final Memorandum. 
  
 (f) Subsequent to the Execution Time or, if earlier, the dates as of which information is given in the Final Memorandum (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto), there shall not have been (i) any change or
decrease specified in the letter or letters referred to in paragraph (e) of this Section 6; or (ii) any change, or any development involving a prospective change in or affecting the condition (financial or otherwise), earnings, business or
properties of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business, except as set forth in or contemplated in the Final Memorandum (exclusive of any amendment or supplement
thereto), the effect of which, in any case referred to in clause (i) or (ii) above, is, in the sole judgment of the Representative, so material and adverse as to make it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the
Securities as contemplated in the Final Memorandum (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto). 
  
 (g) The Securities shall have been designated as PORTAL-eligible securities in accordance with the rules and regulations of the NASD and the Securities
shall be eligible for clearance and settlement through The Depository Trust Company. 
  
 (h) Subsequent to the Execution Time, there shall not have been any decrease in the rating of any of the Company’s securities by any “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” (as defined
for purposes of Rule 436(g) under the Act) or any notice given of any intended or potential decrease in any such rating or of a possible change in any such rating that does not indicate the direction of the possible change. 
  
 (i) Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall have furnished to the
Representative such further information, certificates and documents as the Representative may reasonably request. 
  
 (j) The Company shall have entered into and delivered to the Representative an amendment to the Revolving Credit Facility in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Representative. 
  
 (k) The Company shall have
dissolved United Refining Marketing, Inc, a Delaware corporation and shall have delivered to the Representative a notice of dissolution or equivalent evidence of dissolution from the Delaware Secretary of State, in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Representative. 
  
 (l) The Company shall have
caused a notice of redemption to be mailed to the holders of the 10.75% Senior Notes due 2007 and irrevocably deposited an amount equal to such redemption with IBJ Schroder Bank & Trust Company, in each case, concurrently with the closing of the
Securities. 
  
 If any of the conditions specified in this Section
6 shall not have been fulfilled when and as provided in this Agreement, or if any of the opinions and certificates mentioned above or elsewhere in this Agreement shall not be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Representative and
counsel for the Initial Purchasers, this Agreement and all obligations of the Initial Purchasers hereunder may be cancelled at, or at any time prior to, the Closing Date by the Representative. Notice of such cancellation shall be given to the
Company in writing or by telephone or facsimile confirmed in writing. 
  
 The documents required to be delivered by this Section 6 will be delivered at the office of counsel for the Initial Purchasers, at 80 Pine Street, New York, New York 10005, on the Closing Date. 
  
 7. Reimbursement of Expenses. If the sale of the Securities provided
for herein is not consummated because any condition to the obligations of the Initial Purchasers set forth in Section 6 hereof is not satisfied, because of any termination pursuant to Section 10 hereof or because of any refusal, inability or failure
on the part of the Issuers to perform any agreement herein or comply with any provision hereof other than by reason of a default by any of the Initial Purchasers, the Issuers will reimburse the Initial Purchasers severally through Citigroup on
demand for all expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) that shall have been incurred by them in connection with the proposed purchase and sale of the Securities. 
  

 -11- 

 8. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) The Issuers, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify
and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser, the directors, officers, employees, Affiliates and agents of each Initial Purchaser and each person who controls any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act against any and
all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or other U.S. federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such
losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Final Memorandum or in any
amendment or supplement thereto or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading, and agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability
or action; provided, however, that the Issuers will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or
omission or alleged omission made in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Final Memorandum or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Issuers by or on behalf of any
Initial Purchaser through the Representative specifically for inclusion therein. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that the Company may otherwise have. 
  
 (b) Each Initial Purchaser severally, and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Issuer, each of their
directors, each of their officers, and each person who controls such Issuer within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from such Issuer to each Initial Purchaser, but only with reference
to written information relating to such Initial Purchaser furnished to such Issuer by or on behalf of such Initial Purchaser through the Representative specifically for inclusion in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Final Memorandum or in any
amendment or supplement thereto. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that any Initial Purchaser may otherwise have. Each Issuer acknowledges that (i) the statements set forth in the last paragraph of the cover page
regarding delivery of the Securities and (ii), under the heading “Plan of Distribution”, the paragraphs related to over-allotment, covering transactions and stabilizing transactions in the Preliminary Memorandum and the Final Memorandum
constitute the only information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Initial Purchasers for inclusion in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Final Memorandum or in any amendment or supplement thereto. 
  
 (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of
notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the
failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying
party of substantial rights and defenses and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above. The indemnifying
party shall be entitled to appoint counsel (including local counsel) of the indemnifying party’s choice at the indemnifying party’s expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case
the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel, other than local counsel if not appointed by the indemnifying party, retained by the indemnified party or parties except as set forth
below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s election to appoint counsel (including local counsel) to represent the indemnified
party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel
chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest; (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the
indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party; (iii)
the indemnifying party shall not have 
  

 -12- 

 employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after
notice of the institution of such action; or (iv) the indemnifying party shall authorize in writing the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party; provided, however, the indemnifying party
shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one such separate counsel (together with local counsel) in connection with any action or related proceeding in the same jurisdiction. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior
written consent of the indemnified parties, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or
proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an
unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding. 
  
 (d) In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 8 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified
party for any reason, the Issuers and the Initial Purchasers severally agree to contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending
any loss, claim, damage, liability or action) (collectively “Losses”) to which the Issuers and one or more of the Initial Purchasers may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by
the Issuers on the one hand and by the Initial Purchasers on the other from the offering of the Securities; provided, however, that in no case shall any Initial Purchaser be responsible for any amount in excess of the purchase discount
or commission applicable to the Securities purchased by such Initial Purchaser hereunder. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason, the Issuers and the Initial Purchasers severally shall
contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Issuers on the one hand and the Initial Purchasers on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that
resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by the Issuers shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by them, and benefits
received by the Initial Purchasers shall be deemed to be equal to the total purchase discounts and commissions. Relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information provided by the Issuers on the one hand or the Initial Purchasers on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and
opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Issuers and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation that
does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to
contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 8, each person who controls an Initial Purchaser within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and each director, officer,
employee, Affiliate and agent of any Initial Purchaser shall have the same rights to contribution as such Initial Purchaser, and each person who controls an Issuer within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and each officer and
director of an Issuer shall have the same rights to contribution as such Issuer, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this paragraph (d). 
  
 9. Default by an Initial Purchaser. If any one or more Initial Purchasers shall fail to purchase and pay for any of
the Securities agreed to be purchased by such Initial Purchaser hereunder and such failure to purchase shall constitute a default in the performance of its or their obligations under this Agreement, the remaining Initial Purchasers shall be
obligated severally to take up and pay for (in the respective proportions which the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite their names in Schedule I hereto bears to the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth opposite
the names of all the remaining Initial Purchasers) the Securities which the defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed to purchase; provided, however, that in the event that the aggregate principal amount of
Securities which the defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed to purchase shall exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth in Schedule I hereto, the remaining Initial Purchasers shall have
the right to purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to purchase any, of the Securities, and if such nondefaulting Initial Purchasers do not purchase all the Securities, this Agreement will terminate without liability to any
nondefaulting Initial Purchaser or any Issuer. In the event of a default by any Initial Purchaser as set forth in this Section 9, the Closing Date shall be postponed for such period, not exceeding five Business Days, as the Representative shall
determine in order that the required changes in the 
  

 -13- 

 Final Memorandum or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall
relieve any defaulting Initial Purchaser of its liability, if any, to the Issuers or any nondefaulting Initial Purchaser for damages occasioned by its default hereunder. 
  
 10. Termination. This Agreement shall be subject to termination in the absolute discretion of the Representative, by
notice given to the Company prior to delivery of and payment for the Securities, if at any time prior to such time (i) trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq National Market shall have been suspended or limited
or minimum prices shall have been established on such exchange or the Nasdaq National Market; (ii) a banking moratorium shall have been declared either by U.S. federal or New York State authorities; or (iii) there shall have occurred any outbreak or
escalation of hostilities, declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war or other calamity or crisis the effect of which on financial markets is such as to make it, in the sole judgment of the Representative, impractical or
inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Securities as contemplated in the Final Memorandum (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto). 
  
 11. Representations and Indemnities to Survive. The respective agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities
and other statements of the Issuers or their respective officers and of the Initial Purchasers set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Initial
Purchasers or the Issuers or any of the indemnified persons referred to in Section 8 hereof, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Securities. The provisions of Sections 7 and 8 hereof shall survive the termination or cancellation of this
Agreement. 
  
 12. Notices. All communications hereunder
will be in writing and effective only on receipt, and, if sent to the Representative, will be mailed, delivered or telefaxed to the Citigroup General Counsel (fax no.: (212) 816-7912) and confirmed to Citigroup at 388 Greenwich Street, New York, New
York 10013, Attention: General Counsel; or, if sent to the Issuers, will be mailed, delivered or telefaxed to (814) 723-4371 and confirmed to it at 15 Bradley Street, Warren, Pennsylvania 16365, attention of the Legal Department. 
  
 13. Successors. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be
binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the indemnified persons referred to in Section 8 hereof and their respective successors, and, except as expressly set forth in Section 5(h) hereof, no other person will have any
right or obligation hereunder. 
  
 14. Applicable Law. This
Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and to be performed within the State of New York. The parties hereto each hereby waive any right to trial by jury in any
action, proceeding or counterclaim arising out of or relating to this Agreement. 
  
 15. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

 SECTION 3. REGISTERED EXCHANGE OFFER 
  
 (a) Unless, due to a change in law or Commission policy after the date hereof, the Exchange Offer shall not be permissible under applicable federal law or
Commission policy, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall (i) cause to be filed with the Commission as soon as practicable on or prior to 135 days after the Closing Date, a Registration Statement under the Act relating to the New Notes and
the Exchange Offer and (ii) use their best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Commission as soon as practicable on or prior to 225 days after the Closing Date. In connection with the foregoing, the Company
and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall (A) file all pre-effective amendments to such Registration Statement as may be necessary to cause such Registration Statement to become effective, (B) if applicable, file a post-effective amendment to such
Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 430A under the Act, (C) cause all necessary filings in connection with the registration and qualification of the New Notes to be made under the Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as are necessary to permit
Consummation of the Exchange Offer (provided, however, that the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall not be obligated to qualify as foreign corporations in any jurisdiction in which they are not so qualified or to take any action that would
subject them to general service of process or taxation in any jurisdiction where they are not so subject) and (D) upon the effectiveness of such Registration Statement, commence the Exchange Offer and use their best efforts to issue on or prior to
45 days after the date on which such Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission, New Notes in exchange for all Old Notes tendered in the Exchange Offer. The Exchange Offer shall be on the 

 appropriate form permitting registration of the New Notes to be offered in exchange for the Transfer Restricted
Securities and to permit resales of New Notes held by Broker-Dealers as contemplated by Section 3(c) below. If, after such Exchange Offer Registration Statement initially is declared effective by the Commission, the Exchange Offer or the issuance of
New Notes under the Exchange Offer or the resale of New Notes received by Broker-Dealers in the Exchange Offer as contemplated by Section 3(c) below is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the Commission or
any other governmental agency or court, such Registration Statement shall be deemed not to have become effective for purposes of this Agreement during the period that such stop order, injunction or other similar order or requirement shall remain in
effect. 
  
 (b) The Company shall cause the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement to be effective continuously and shall keep the Exchange Offer open for a period of not less than the minimum period required under applicable federal and state securities laws to Consummate the Exchange Offer;
provided, however, that in no event shall such period be less than 20 business days nor longer than 90 days. The Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall cause the Exchange Offer to comply with all applicable federal and state
securities laws. The Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall only offer to exchange New Notes for Old Notes in the Exchange Offer, and only the New Notes shall be registered under the Exchange Offer Registration Statement. The Company and the
Subsidiary Guarantors shall use its best efforts to cause the Exchange Offer to be Consummated on the earliest practicable date after the Exchange Offer Registration Statement has become effective, but in no event later than 45 business days after
such effective date. 
  
 (c) The Company shall indicate in a
“Plan of Distribution” section contained in the Prospectus included in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement that any Broker-Dealer that holds Old Notes that are Transfer Restricted Securities and that were acquired for its own account
as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities (other than Transfer Restricted Securities acquired directly from the Company), may exchange such Old Notes pursuant to the Exchange Offer; provided, however, that
such Broker-Dealer may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Act and must, therefore, deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Act in connection with any resales of the New Notes received by such
Broker-Dealer in the Exchange Offer. Such “Plan of Distribution” section shall allow the use of the Prospectus by all Persons subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Act, including Participating Broker-Dealers, and shall
also contain all other information with respect to such resales by Broker-Dealers that the Commission may require to permit such resales pursuant thereto, but such “Plan of Distribution” shall not name any such Broker-Dealer or disclose
the amount of Notes held by any such Broker-Dealer except to the extent required by the Commission as a result of a change in policy after the date of this Agreement. 
  
 The Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall use their best efforts to keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement
continuously effective, supplemented and amended as required by the provisions of Section 6(c) below to the extent necessary to ensure that it is available for resales of Notes acquired by Broker-Dealers for their own accounts as a result of
market-making activities or other trading activities, and to ensure that it conforms with the requirements of this Agreement, the Act and the policies, rules and regulations of the Commission as announced from time to time. The Company shall provide
sufficient copies of the latest version of such Prospectus to Broker-Dealers promptly upon request at any time during such period in order to facilitate such resales. 
  
 (d) The Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall not consummate the Exchange Offer later than 270 days following the
Closing Date. 
  
 SECTION 4. SHELF REGISTRATION

  
 (a) Shelf Registration. If (i) the Company and the
Subsidiary Guarantors are not required to file an Exchange Offer Registration Statement or to consummate the Exchange Offer because the Exchange 

 Offer is not permitted by applicable law or Commission policy or (ii) any Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities shall
notify the Company within 20 business days of the Consummation of the Exchange Offer that such Holder (A) is prohibited by applicable law or Commission policy from participating in the Exchange Offer, or (B) may not resell the New Notes acquired by
it in the Exchange Offer to the public without delivering a prospectus and the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is not appropriate or available for such resales by such Holder or (C) is a Broker-Dealer and holds Old
Notes (including the Initial Purchasers who holds Old Notes as part of an unsold allotment from the original offering of the Notes) acquired directly from the Company or one of its affiliates or (iii) the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors do not
consummate the Exchange Offer within 45 days following the effectiveness date of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, then the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall (x) cause to be filed a shelf registration statement pursuant to Rule
415 under the Act, which may be an amendment to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement (in either event, the “Shelf Registration Statement”), on or prior to the earliest to occur of (1) the 135th day after the date on which the
Company determines that it is not required to file the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or (2) the 135th day after the date on which the Company receives notice from a Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities as contemplated by clause (ii)
above (such earliest date being the “Shelf Filing Deadline”), which Shelf Registration Statement shall provide for resales of all Transfer Restricted Securities the Holders of which shall have provided the information required
pursuant to Section 4(b) of this Agreement, and (y) use its best efforts to cause such Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Commission on or before the 225th day after the Shelf Filing Deadline. The Company and the Subsidiary
Guarantors shall use its best efforts to keep such Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective, supplemented and amended as required by the provisions of Sections 6(b) and (c) of this Agreement to the extent necessary to ensure that it is
available for resales of Notes by the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities entitled to the benefit of this Section 4(a) and to ensure that it conforms with the requirements of this Agreement, the Act and the policies, rules and regulations of
the Commission as announced from time to time, for a continuous period of two years following the date on which such Shelf Registration Statement becomes effective under the Act or such shorter period that will terminate when all the Notes covered
by the Shelf Registration Statement have been sold pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement. 
  
 (b) Provision by Holders of Certain Information in Connection with the Shelf Registration Statement. No Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities
may include any of its Transfer Restricted Securities in any Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to this Agreement unless and until such Holder furnishes to the Company in writing, within 20 business days after receipt of a request therefor, such
information regarding such Holder as the Company may reasonably request for use in connection with any Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus included in such Shelf Registration Statement. Each Holder as to which any
Shelf Registration Statement is being effected agrees to furnish promptly to the Company all information required to be disclosed to make the information previously furnished to the Company by such Holder not materially misleading. 
  
 SECTION 5. LIQUIDATED DAMAGES 
  
 If (i) any of the Registration Statements required by this Agreement is not
filed with the Commission on or prior to the date specified for such filing in this Agreement, (ii) any of such Registration Statements has not been declared effective by the Commission on or prior to the date specified for such effectiveness in
this Agreement (the “Effectiveness Target Date”), (iii) the Exchange Offer has not been Consummated within 45 business days after the Effectiveness Target Date with respect to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or (iv) any
Registration Statement required by this Agreement is filed and declared effective but shall thereafter cease to be effective or usable in connection with resales of Transfer Restricted Securities during the periods required by this Agreement (each
such event referred to in clauses (i) through (iv), a “Registration Default”), the Company hereby agrees to pay liquidated damages to each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities with respect to the first 90-day period immediately
following the occurrence of such Registration Default, in an amount equal 

 to $.05 per week per $1,000 principal amount of Notes constituting Transfer Restricted Securities held by such Holder for
each week or portion thereof that the Registration Default continues. The amount of the liquidated damages shall increase by an additional $.05 per week per $1,000 in principal amount of Notes constituting Transfer Restricted Securities with respect
to each subsequent 90-day period until all Registration Defaults have been cured, up to a maximum amount of liquidated damages of $.20 per week per $1,000 in principal amount of Notes constituting Transfer Restricted Securities. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company shall not be required to pay liquidated damages to each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities if the Registration Default arises from the failure of the Company to file, or cause to become effective, a Shelf Registration
Statement within the time period required by Section 4 of this Agreement and such Registration Default is by reason of the failure of the Holders to provide the information regarding the Holder reasonably requested by the Company, the NASD or any
other regulatory agency having jurisdiction over any of the Holders at least 10 business days prior to such Registration Default. All accrued liquidated damages shall be paid by the Company on each Damages Payment Date to the Holders by wire
transfer of immediately available funds or by federal funds check and to the Holders of certificated securities by mailing a check to such Holders’ registered addresses. Following the cure of all Registration Defaults relating to any particular
Transfer Restricted Securities, the accrual of liquidated damages with respect to such Transfer Restricted Securities will cease. 
  
 All obligations of the Company set forth in the preceding paragraph that are outstanding with respect to any Transfer Restricted Security at the time such
security ceases to be a Transfer Restricted Security shall survive until such time as all such obligations with respect to such Transfer Restricted Security shall have been satisfied in full. 
  
 SECTION 6. REGISTRATION PROCEDURES 
  
 (a) Exchange Offer Registration Statement. In connection with the
Exchange Offer, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall comply with all of the provisions of Section 6(c) below, shall use their best efforts to effect such exchange to permit the sale of Transfer Restricted Securities being sold in
accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution thereof, and shall comply with all of the following provisions: 
  
 (i) If, due to a change in law or Commission policy after the date hereof, in the reasonable opinion of special counsel to the Company
there is a question as to whether the Exchange Offer is permitted by applicable federal law or Commission policy, the Company hereby agrees to seek a no-action letter or other favorable decision from the Commission allowing the Company and the
Subsidiary Guarantors to Consummate an Exchange Offer for such Old Notes. The Company hereby agrees to pursue the issuance of such a no-action letter or favorable decision to the Commission staff level but shall not be required to take commercially
unreasonable action to effect a change of Commission policy. The Company hereby agrees, however, to (A) participate in telephonic conferences with the Commission, (B) deliver to the Commission an analysis prepared by special counsel to the Company
setting forth the legal bases, if any, upon which such counsel has concluded that such an Exchange Offer should be permitted and (C) diligently pursue a resolution (which need not be favorable) by the Commission of such submission. The Initial
Purchasers shall be given prior notice of any action taken by the Company under this clause (i). 
  
 (ii) As a condition to its participation in the Exchange Offer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, each Holder of Transfer Restricted
Securities shall furnish, upon the request of the Company, prior to the Consummation of the Exchange Offer, a written representation to the Company (which may be contained in the letter of transmittal contemplated by the Exchange Offer Registration
Statement) to the effect that (A) it is not an affiliate of the Company or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors, (B) it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, and has no arrangement or understanding 

 with any person to participate in, a distribution of the New Notes to be issued in the Exchange Offer and
(C) it is acquiring the New Notes in its ordinary course of business. In addition, all such Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities shall otherwise cooperate in the Company’ preparations for the Exchange Offer. 
  
 (iii) The Company and the Initial Purchasers acknowledge
that the staff of the Commission has taken the position that any broker-dealer that owns New Notes that were received by such broker-dealer for its own account in the Exchange Offer (a “Participating Broker-Dealer”) may be deemed to
be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Act and must deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Act in connection with any resale of such New Notes (other than a resale of an unsold allotment resulting from the original
offering of the Notes). 
  
 The Company and the
Initial Purchasers also acknowledge that it is the Commission staff’s position that if the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement includes a plan of distribution containing a statement to the above effect and the
means by which Participating Broker-Dealers may resell the New Notes, without naming the Participating Broker-Dealers or specifying the amount of New Notes owned by them, such Prospectus may be delivered by Participating Broker-Dealers to satisfy
their prospectus delivery obligations under the Act in connection with resales of New Notes for their own accounts, so long as the Prospectus otherwise meets the requirements of the Act. 
  
 (b) Shelf Registration Statement. In the event that a Shelf Registration Statement is required by this Agreement, the
Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall comply with all the provisions of Section 6(c) of this Agreement and shall use their best efforts to effect such registration to permit the sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities being sold in
accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution of such Transfer Restricted Securities and, in connection therewith, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors will as expeditiously as possible prepare and file with the Commission a
Shelf Registration Statement relating to the registration on any appropriate form under the Act, which form shall be available for the sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution of
such Transfer Restricted Securities. 
  
 (c) General
Provisions. In connection with any Registration Statement and any Prospectus required by this Agreement to permit the sale or resale of Transfer Restricted Securities (including, without limitation, any Registration Statement and the related
Prospectus, to the extent that the same are required to be available to permit resales of Notes by Broker-Dealers), the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall: 
  
 (i) use their best efforts to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective for the applicable
time period required hereunder and provide all requisite financial statements (including, if required by the Act or any regulation thereunder, financial statements of the Subsidiary Guarantors) for the period specified in Section 3 or 4 of this
Agreement, as applicable; upon the occurrence of any event that would cause any such Registration Statement or the Prospectus contained therein (A) to contain a material misstatement or omission or (B) not to be effective and usable for resale of
Transfer Restricted Securities during the period required by this Agreement, the Company shall promptly notify the Holders to suspend use of the Prospectus, and the Holders shall suspend use of the Prospectus, and such Holders shall not communicate
non-public information to any third party, in violation of the securities laws, until the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors have made an appropriate amendment to such Registration Statement, in the case of clause (A), correcting any such
misstatement or omission, and, in the case of either clause (A) or (B), the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall use their best efforts to cause such amendment to be declared effective and such Registration Statement and the related
Prospectus to become usable for their intended purpose(s) as soon as practicable thereafter; 

 (ii) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and post-effective amendments
to such Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement effective for the applicable period set forth in Section 3 or 4 of this Agreement, or such shorter period as will terminate when all Transfer Restricted Securities
covered by such Registration Statement have been sold; cause the Prospectus to be supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement, and as so supplemented to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the Act during the applicable time period required
hereunder and to comply fully with the applicable provisions of Rules 424 and 430A under the Act in a timely manner; and comply with the provisions of the Act and the Exchange Act with respect to the disposition of all Transfer Restricted Securities
covered by such Registration Statement during such period in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution by the sellers of such securities set forth in such Registration Statement as so amended or in such Prospectus as so
supplemented; 
  
 (iii) advise the
underwriter(s), if any, the Initial Purchasers, and, in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, each of the selling Holders promptly and, if requested by such Persons, to confirm such advice in writing, (A) when the Prospectus or any prospectus
supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed and, with respect to any Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto, when the same has become effective, (B) of any request by the Commission for amendments to the
Registration Statement or amendments or supplements to the Prospectus or for additional information relating to such Registration Statement or Prospectus, (C) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement under the Act or of the suspension by any state securities commission of the qualification of the Transfer Restricted Securities for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation of any proceeding for any of the
preceding purposes, (D) of the existence of any fact or the happening of any event that makes any statement of a material fact made in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement or
Prospectus, as the case may be, or any document incorporated by reference in such Registration Statement or Prospectus untrue in any material respect, or that requires the making of any additions to or changes in the Registration Statement or the
Prospectus in order to make the statements in such Registration Statement or Prospectus not misleading and that in the case of the Prospectus, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to
be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. If at any time the Commission shall issue any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement, or any state securities commission or other regulatory authority shall issue an order suspending the qualification or exemption from qualification of the Transfer Restricted Securities under state securities or Blue Sky laws, the Company
and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall use their best efforts to obtain the withdrawal or lifting of such order at the earliest possible time; 
  
 (iv) furnish to each of the underwriter(s), if any, the Initial Purchasers and, in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, each of the
selling Holders before filing with the Commission, copies of any Registration Statement or any Prospectus included in such Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendments or supplements to any such Registration Statement or Prospectus
(including all documents incorporated by reference after the initial filing of such Registration Statement), which documents will be subject to the reasonable review of such underwriter(s), if any, the Initial Purchasers, and such Holders for a
period of at least five business days, and the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors will not file any such Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to any such Registration Statement or Prospectus, as the case may be,
(including all such documents incorporated by reference) to which any underwriter, Initial Purchasers or selling Holder shall reasonably object within five business days after the receipt of such Registration Statement or Prospectus. A selling
Holder or underwriter, if any, shall be deemed to have reasonably objected to such filing if such Registration Statement, Prospectus, amendment or supplement, as applicable, as proposed to be filed, contains a material misstatement or omission;

 (v) promptly prior to the filing of any document that is to be incorporated by reference
into a Registration Statement or Prospectus, (a) provide copies of such document to the selling Holders and to the underwriter(s), if any, (b) make the Company’s and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ representatives available for discussion of
such document and other customary due diligence matters; provided that such discussion and due diligence shall be coordinated on behalf of the selling Holders by one counsel designated by and on behalf of such selling Holders and (c) include
such information in such document prior to the filing of such document as such selling Holders or underwriter(s), if any, may reasonably request 
  
 (vi) make available at reasonable times for inspection by the selling Holders, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant
to such Registration Statement and any attorney or accountant retained by such selling Holders or any of the underwriter(s), if any, at the offices where normally kept, during reasonable business hours, all relevant financial and other records,
pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors and cause the Company’s and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any such
Holder, underwriter, attorney or accountant in connection with such Registration Statement subsequent to the filing thereof and prior to its effectiveness; provided, however, that such persons shall first agree in writing with the
Company that any information that is reasonably and in good faith designated by the Company in writing as confidential at the time of delivery of such information shall be kept confidential by such persons, unless and to the extent that (i)
disclosure of such information is required by court or administrative order or is necessary to respond to inquiries of regulatory authorities, (ii) disclosure of such information is required by law (including any disclosure requirements pursuant to
federal securities laws in connection with the filing of the Shelf Registration Statement or the use of any Prospectus), (iii) such information becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure or failure to safeguard
such information by such person or (iv) such information becomes available to such person from a source other than the Company and its Subsidiaries and such source is not bound by a confidentiality agreement; 
  
 (vii) if requested by any selling Holders or the
underwriter(s), if any, promptly incorporate in any Registration Statement or Prospectus, pursuant to a supplement or post-effective amendment if necessary, such information as such selling Holders and underwriter(s), if any, may reasonably request
to have included therein, including, without limitation, information relating to the “Plan of Distribution” of the Transfer Restricted Securities, information with respect to the principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities being
sold to such underwriter(s), the purchase price being paid for Transfer Restricted Securities and any other terms of the offering of the Transfer Restricted Securities to be sold in such offering; and make all required filings of such Prospectus
supplement or post-effective amendment as soon as practicable after the Company is notified of the matters to be incorporated in such Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment; provided, however, that the Company shall not be
required to take any action pursuant to this Section 6(c)(vii) that would, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, violate applicable law; 
  
 (viii) furnish to each underwriter, if any, the Initial Purchasers and upon request to the Company to a selling Holder without charge, at
least one conformed copy of the Registration Statement, as first filed with the Commission, and of each amendment thereto, including, upon the request of such Person, all documents incorporated by reference therein and all exhibits to the extent
requested (including exhibits incorporated therein by reference); 
  
 (ix) deliver to each selling Holder, each of the underwriter(s), if any, and the Initial Purchasers, without charge, as many copies of the Prospectus (including each preliminary prospectus) and any amendment or
supplement thereto as such Persons may reasonably request; the Company and the 

 Subsidiary Guarantors hereby consent to the use of the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement to the
Prospectus by each of the selling Holders and each of the underwriter(s), if any, in connection with the offering and the sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities in accordance with the terms thereof and with U.S. Federal securities laws and Blue
Sky laws covered by the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto; 
  
 (x) enter into such agreements (including an underwriting agreement in form, scope and substance as is customary in underwritten offerings of securities of this type) and take all such other reasonable actions in
connection therewith in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of the Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement contemplated by this Agreement, all as may be reasonably requested by any Holder of Transfer
Restricted Securities or the underwriter(s), if any, in connection with any sale or resale of Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement contemplated by this Agreement; and whether or not an underwriting agreement is
entered into and whether or not the registration is an Underwritten Registration, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall (i) make such representations and warranties to the Holders of such Transfer Restricted Securities and the
underwriters, if any, with respect to the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries (including with respect to businesses or assets acquired or to be acquired by any of them), and the Shelf Registration Statement, Prospectus and documents, if
any, incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein, in each case, in form, substance and scope as are customarily made by issuers to underwriters in underwritten offerings, and confirm the same if and when customarily requested;
(ii) obtain opinions of counsel to the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors and updates thereof (which counsel and opinions (in form, scope and substance) shall be reasonably satisfactory to the underwriters, if any, and special counsel to the
Holders of the Transfer Restricted Securities being sold), addressed to each selling Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities and each of the underwriters, if any, covering the matters customarily covered in opinions requested in underwritten
offerings and such other matters as may be reasonably requested by such underwriters, if any, and special counsel to Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities; (iii) use their best efforts to obtain customary “cold comfort” letters and
updates thereof from the independent certified public accountants of the Company (and, if necessary, any other independent certified public accountants of any subsidiary of the Company or of any business acquired by the Company or any such
subsidiary for which financial statements and financial data is, or is required to be, included in the Registration Statement), addressed (where reasonably possible) to each selling Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities and each of the
underwriters, if any, such letters to be in customary form and covering matters of the type customarily covered in “cold comfort” letters in connection with underwritten offerings; (iv) if an underwriting agreement is entered into, the
same shall contain indemnification provisions and procedures no less favorable to the selling Holders and the underwriters, if any, than those set forth in Section 8 hereof (or such other provisions and procedures acceptable to Holders of a majority
in aggregate principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities covered by such Shelf Registration Statement and the underwriters, if any); and (v) deliver such documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested by the Holders of a majority
in aggregate principal amount of the Transfer Restricted Securities being sold and the underwriters, if any, to evidence the continued validity of the representations and warranties made pursuant to clause (i) above and to evidence compliance with
any customary conditions contained in the underwriting agreement or other agreement entered into by the Company. 
  
 If at any time the representations and warranties of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors contemplated in clause (A)(1) above cease
to be true and correct, the Company shall so advise the Initial Purchasers and the underwriter(s), if any, and each selling Holder promptly and, if requested by any of them, shall confirm such advice in writing; 

 (xi) prior to any public offering of Transfer Restricted Securities, cooperate with and
cause the Subsidiary Guarantors to cooperate with the selling Holders, the underwriter(s), if any, and their respective counsel in connection with the registration and qualification (or exemption from such registration or qualification) of the
Transfer Restricted Securities for offer and sale under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as the selling Holders and underwriter(s), if any, may reasonably request in writing and do any and all other acts or things necessary or
advisable to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by the Registration Statement; provided, however, that neither the Company nor the Subsidiary Guarantors shall be required to
register or qualify as a foreign corporation where it is not now so qualified or to take any action that would subject it to the service of process or to taxation, other than as to matters and transactions relating to the Registration Statement, in
any jurisdiction where it is not now so subject; 
  
 (xii) if a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 2(b), cooperate with the selling Holders of Registrable Securities and the managing Underwriters, if any, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates
representing Transfer Restricted Securities to be sold, which certificates shall not bear any restrictive legends and shall be in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company; and enable such Transfer Restricted Securities to be in
such denominations and registered in such names as the managing Underwriters, if any, or Holders may reasonably request; 
  
 (xiii) in connection with any sale or transfer of Transfer Restricted Securities that will result in such securities no longer being
Transfer Restricted Securities, cooperate with and cause the Subsidiary Guarantors to cooperate with the selling Holders and the underwriter(s), if any, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Transfer
Restricted Securities to be sold and not bearing any restrictive legends; and enable such Transfer Restricted Securities to be in such denominations and registered in such names as the Holders or the underwriter(s), if any, may request at least two
business days prior to any sale of Transfer Restricted Securities made by such underwriter(s); 
  
 (xiv) use its best efforts to cause the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be registered with or
approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to enable the seller or sellers of such Transfer Restricted Securities or the underwriter(s), if any, to consummate the disposition of such Transfer Restricted
Securities, subject to the proviso contained in clause (xi) above; 
  
 (xv) if any fact or event contemplated by Section 6(c)(iii)(D) of this Agreement shall exist or have occurred, prepare a supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or related Prospectus or
any document incorporated in such Registration Statement or Prospectus by reference or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of Transfer Restricted Securities, the Registration Statement will not contain
an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and the Prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements contained therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; 
  
 (xvi) provide a CUSIP number for all Transfer Restricted Securities not later than the effective date of the Registration Statement and
provide the Trustee under the Indenture with printed certificates for the Transfer Restricted Securities that are in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company; 

 (xvii) cooperate and assist in any filings required to be made with the NASD and in the
performance of any due diligence investigation by any underwriter (including any “qualified independent underwriter” that is required to be retained in accordance with the rules and regulations of the NASD); 
  
 (xviii) otherwise use its best efforts to comply with all
applicable rules and regulations of the Commission in regards to any Registration Statement, and make generally available to its securityholders, as soon as practicable, a consolidated earning statement of the Company meeting the requirements of
Rule 158 (which need not be audited) for the twelve-month period (A) commencing at the end of any fiscal quarter in which Transfer Restricted Securities are sold to underwriters in a firm commitment or reasonable best efforts Underwritten Offering
or (B) if not sold to underwriters in such an offering, beginning with the first month of the Company’s first fiscal quarter commencing after the effective date of the Registration Statement; 
  
 (xix) cause the Indenture to be qualified under the TIA not
later than the effective date of the first Registration Statement required by this Agreement, and, in connection therewith, cooperate with the Trustee and the Holders to effect such changes to the Indenture, if any, as may be required for such
Indenture to be so qualified in accordance with the terms of the TIA; and execute, and use its best efforts to cause the Trustee to execute, all customary documents that may be required to effect such changes and all other forms and documents
required to be filed with the Commission to enable such Indenture to be so qualified in a timely manner. 
  
 Each Holder agrees by acquisition of a Transfer Restricted Security that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the existence of any fact of the
kind described in Section 6(c)(iii)(D) of this Agreement, such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to the applicable Registration Statement until such Holder’s receipt of the copies of the
supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 6(c)(xv) of this Agreement, or until it is advised in writing (the “Advice”) by the Company that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed, and has received copies of any
additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated by reference in the Prospectus. If so directed by the Company, each Holder will deliver to the Company (at the Company’s expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such
Holder’s possession, of the Prospectus covering such Transfer Restricted Securities that was current at the time of receipt of such notice. In the event that the Company shall give any such notice, the time period regarding the effectiveness of
such Registration Statement set forth in Section 3 or 4 of this Agreement, as applicable, shall be extended by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the giving of such notice pursuant to Section 6(c)(iii)(D) of this
Agreement to and including the date when each selling Holder covered by such Registration Statement shall have received the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 6(c)(xv) of this Agreement or shall have received
the Advice. 
  
 SECTION 7. REGISTRATION EXPENSES

  
 (a) All fees and expenses incident to the Company’s and
the Subsidiary Guarantors’ performance of or compliance with this Agreement will be borne by the Company regardless of whether a Registration Statement becomes effective, including without limitation: (i) all registration and filing fees and
expenses (including filings made with the NASD (and, if applicable, the fees and expenses of any “qualified independent underwriter” and its counsel that may be required by the rules and regulations of the NASD)); (ii) all fees and
expenses of compliance with federal securities and state Blue Sky or securities laws; (iii) all expenses of printing (including printing certificates for the New Notes to be issued in the Exchange Offer and printing of Prospectuses); (iv) all fees
and disbursements of counsel for the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and, subject to Section 7(b) below, the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities; and (v) all fees and disbursements of independent certified public accountants of the Company
(including the expenses of any special audit and comfort letters required by or incident to such performance). 

 The Company will, in any event, bear its internal expenses (including, without limitation, all salaries
and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expenses of any annual audit and the fees and expenses of any Person, including special experts, retained by it. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything in this Agreement to the contrary,
each Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes shall pay all underwriting discounts and commissions of any underwriters with respect to any Notes sold by or on behalf of it. 
  
 (b) In connection with any Registration Statement required by this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Exchange
Offer Registration Statement and the Shelf Registration Statement), the Company will reimburse the Initial Purchasers and the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities being tendered in the Exchange Offer and/or resold pursuant to the “Plan of
Distribution” contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or registered pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, as applicable, for the reasonable fees and disbursements of not more than one counsel, who shall be Cahill Gordon
& Reindel LLP or such other counsel as may be chosen by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Transfer Restricted Securities for whose benefit such Registration Statement is being prepared. 
  
 SECTION 8. INDEMNIFICATION 
  
 (a) The Company and each of the Subsidiary Guarantors jointly and severally
agree to indemnify and hold harmless (i) the Initial Purchasers, each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities and each Participating Broker Dealer, (ii) each person, if any, who controls any of the foregoing within the meaning of Section 15 of the
Act or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act (any of the persons referred to in this clause (ii) being hereinafter referred to as a “controlling person”) and (iii) the agents, employees, officers and directors and the agents, employees,
officers and directors of any such controlling person (collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”) from and against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages and reasonable expenses whatsoever (including but not limited to
reasonable attorneys’ fees and any and all reasonable expenses whatsoever incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever, and any and all reasonable amounts paid in
settlement of any claim or litigation) to which they or any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are
based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or Prospectus, or in any supplement thereto or amendment thereof, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the Company and
the Subsidiary Guarantors will not be liable in any such case to the extent, but only to the extent, that any such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or
omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person relating to such Indemnified Person expressly for use therein; provided,
further, that the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall not be liable to any Indemnified Person under the indemnity agreement in this subsection with respect to any preliminary Prospectus to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage
or liability of such Indemnified Person results solely from an untrue statement of a material fact contained in, or the omission of a material fact from, such preliminary Prospectus that was corrected in the final Prospectus, if the Company or the
Subsidiary Guarantors shall sustain the burden of proving that such Indemnified Person sold Notes to the person alleging such loss, claim, damage or liability without sending or giving, at or prior to the written confirmation of such sale, a copy of
the Prospectus or of the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented even though the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors had previously furnished copies thereof to such Indemnified Person. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any
liability that the Company or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors may otherwise have, including, but not limited to, under this Agreement. 

 (b) In connection with any Registration Statement pursuant to which a Holder of Transfer Restricted
Securities offers or sells Transfer Restricted Securities, such Holder agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, their respective directors and officers and any person controlling
the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors to each Indemnified Person
but only with respect to information relating to such Holder furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Holder expressly for use in such Registration Statement. In any such case in which any action shall be brought against the Company or a
Subsidiary Guarantor, any director or officer of the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor or any person controlling the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor based on such Registration Statement and in respect of which indemnity may be sought against a
Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities, such Holder shall have the rights and duties given to the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors (except that if the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor shall have assumed the defense thereof, such Holder shall
not be required to do so, but may employ separate counsel therein and participate in the defense thereof but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Holder), and the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, their
respective directors and officers and any person controlling the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor shall have the rights and duties given to the Indemnified Persons by Section 7(a) hereof. 
  
 (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under subsection (a) or
(b) above of notice of the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding (collectively, an “Action”), such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under such subsection,
promptly notify each party against whom indemnification is to be sought in writing of the commencement of such Action (but the failure so to notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability that it may have
under this Section 8 except to the extent that it has been prejudiced in any material respect by such failure or from any liability which it may otherwise have). In case any such Action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies an
indemnifying party of the commencement of such Action, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in such Action, and to the extent it may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid
notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense of such Action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to employ its or their own
counsel in any such Action, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party or parties unless (i) the employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing by the indemnifying parties in
connection with the defense of such Action, (ii) the indemnifying parties shall not have employed counsel to take charge of the defense of such Action within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the Action, or (iii) such indemnified
party or parties shall have reasonably concluded that there may be defenses available to it or them that are different from or additional to those available to one or all of the indemnifying parties (in which case the indemnifying parties shall not
have the right to direct the defense of such Action on behalf of the indemnified party or parties), in any of which events such fees and expenses of counsel shall be borne by the indemnifying parties. In no event shall the indemnifying party be
liable for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (together with appropriate local counsel) at any time for all indemnified parties in connection with any one Action or separate but substantially similar or related Actions in the same
jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. Anything in this subsection to the contrary notwithstanding, an indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any claim or Action effected without its written
consent; provided, however, that such consent was not unreasonably withheld. 
  
 (d) In order to provide for contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification provided for in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 8 is for any reason held to be unavailable from the indemnifying party, or
is insufficient to hold harmless a party indemnified under this Section 8, the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Indemnified Parties shall contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses of the nature
contemplated by such indemnification provision (including any reasonable investigation, legal and other expenses incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any 

 Action or any claims asserted, but after deducting in the case of losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses
suffered by the indemnifying party, any contribution received by the indemnifying party, from persons other than the indemnified party who may also be liable for contribution, including persons who control the indemnified party within the meaning of
Section 15 of the Act or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act) to which the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Indemnified Parties may be subject, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and
the Subsidiary Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Indemnified Parties, on the other hand, from the offering of the Old Notes or, if such allocation is not permitted by applicable law or indemnification is not available as a result of the
indemnifying party not having received notice as provided in paragraph (c) of this Section 8, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to above but also the relative fault of the Company and the
Subsidiary Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Indemnified Parties, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total proceeds from the offering of Old Notes (net of discounts but before deducting expenses) received
by the Company as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus. The relative fault of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Indemnified Parties, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to,
among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors or the Indemnified Parties
and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. 
  
 (e) The Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to paragraph
(d) of this Section 8 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (d) of this Section 8, (i)
in no case shall an Indemnified Party be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total received by such Indemnified Party with respect to its sale of its Transfer Restricted Securities or New Notes, as the case may be,
exceeds the amount of any damages that such Indemnified Party has otherwise been required to pay by reason of any untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission and (ii) no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within
the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of paragraphs (d) and (e) of this Section 8, each person, if any, who controls an
Indemnified Party within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Indemnified Party, and each person, if any, who controls the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors
within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, subject in each case to clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 8(e). Any party
entitled to contribution will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any Action against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made against another party or parties under paragraphs 8(d) or (e) of this Section
8, notify such party or parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission to so notify such party or parties shall not relieve the party or parties from whom contribution may be sought from any obligation it or they may have under
paragraphs (d) or (e) of this Section 8 or otherwise. No party shall be liable for contribution with respect to any Action or claim settled without its written consent; provided, however, that such written consent was not unreasonably
withheld. 
  
 SECTION 9. RULE 144A 
  
 The Company shall use its best efforts, for so long as any Transfer
Restricted Securities remain outstanding, to make available to any Holder or beneficial owner of Transfer Restricted Securities in connection with any sale of such securities and any prospective purchaser of such Transfer Restricted Securities from
such Holder or beneficial owner, the information required by Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Act in order to permit resales of such Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to Rule 144A. 

 SECTION 10. PARTICIPATION IN UNDERWRITTEN REGISTRATIONS 
  
 No Holder may participate in any Underwritten Registration under this Agreement unless such Holder (a) agrees to sell such
Holder’s Transfer Restricted Securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Persons entitled under this Agreement to approve such arrangements and (b) completes and executes all reasonable questionnaires,
powers of attorneys, indemnities, underwriting agreements, lock-up letters and other documents required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements. 
  
 SECTION 11. SELECTION OF UNDERWRITERS 
  
 The Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement who desire to do so may sell such Transfer Restricted Securities
in an Underwritten Offering. In any such Underwritten Offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers that will administer the offering will be selected by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Transfer Restricted Securities included in such offering; provided, that such investment bankers and managers must be reasonably satisfactory to the Company. 
  
 SECTION 12. MISCELLANEOUS 
  
 (a) Remedies. Each Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided in this Agreement, in the Indenture, the Purchase
Agreement or granted by law, including recovery of liquidated or other damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. The Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors agree that monetary damages would not be adequate
compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby agree to waive the defense in any Action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate. 
  
 (b) No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company will not on or after the
date of this Agreement enter into any agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions of this Agreement. The Company have not
previously entered into any agreement granting any registration rights with respect to its securities to any Person. The rights granted to the Holders under this Agreement do not in any way conflict with and are not inconsistent with the rights
granted to the holders of the Company’s securities under any agreement in effect on the date of this Agreement. 
  
 (c) Adjustments Affecting the Notes. Without the written consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of outstanding Transfer
Restricted Notes, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors will not take any action, or permit any change to occur, with respect to the Notes that would materially and adversely affect the ability of the Holders to Consummate any Exchange Offer.

  
 (d) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this
Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to or departures from the provisions of this Agreement may not be given unless the Company has obtained the written consent of Holders of a majority of the outstanding
principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or consent to departure from the provisions of this Agreement that relates exclusively to the rights of Holders whose securities are being sold or tendered
pursuant to a Registration Statement and that does not affect directly or indirectly the rights of other Holders whose securities are not being sold or tendered pursuant to such Registration Statement may be given by the Holders of a majority of the
outstanding principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities being so sold or tendered. 

 (e) Notices. All notices and other communications provided for or permitted hereunder shall be
made in writing by hand-delivering, first-class mail (registered or certified, return receipt requested), telex, telecopier or air courier guaranteeing overnight delivery:
