NOTICE OF GRANT OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS

Effective September 15, 2014 (the “Effective Date”), you have been granted 150,000 restricted stock units (the “Restricted Stock Units”) of CIBER, Inc. (the “Company”) common stock (the “Stock”).  This award of Restricted Stock Units is an inducement grant made pursuant to Rule 303A.08 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual.  For the avoidance of doubt, this Award is not issued under the CIBER, Inc. 2004 Incentive Plan, as amended and restated, (the “Plan”) and does not reduce the share reserve under the Plan.  Any capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall be defined as indicated in the Employment Agreement with the Company dated as of June 13, 2014 (the “Employment Agreement”).
The Restricted Stock Units award shall vest as follows provided the conditions in this Notice of Grant of Restricted Stock Units and Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (the “Agreement”) are satisfied:

CIBER, INC.

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT
	
		
	Restricted Stock Unit Transferability
	Your Restricted Stock Units may not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated, whether by operation of law or otherwise, nor may the Restricted Stock Units be made subject to execution, attachment or similar process.

	Vesting
	Your Restricted Stock Units vest or have vested as to the number of units indicated in the vesting schedule on the cover sheet, on the Vesting Dates shown on the cover sheet, provided you continue to provide services to the Company or an Affiliate as an employee, officer or director, or a consultant or adviser (“Service”) and your Services do not end as a result of a Separation from Service before the applicable Vesting Date. Your Employment Agreement sets forth the circumstances in which vesting of the Restricted Stock Units will be accelerated, either partially or fully. 
“Affiliate” means, any company or other trade or business that controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the Company within the meaning of Rule 405 of Regulation C under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, including, without limitation, any Subsidiary. An entity may not be considered an Affiliate unless the Company holds a “controlling interest” in such entity, where the term “controlling interest” has the same meaning as provided in Treasury Regulation 1.414(c)-2(b)(2)(i), provided that the language “at least 50 percent” is used instead of “at least 80 percent.” 
“Subsidiary” means any “subsidiary corporation” of the Company within the meaning of Section 424(f) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

	Delivery of Shares
	Delivery to you of vested shares of Stock will be made within five (5) business days of the applicable Vesting Date; provided, that, if such Vesting Date occurs during a period in which you are (i) subject to a lock-up agreement restricting your ability to sell Stock in the open market or (ii) are restricted from selling Stock in the open market because a trading window is not available, you shall not sell the Stock until such restrictions expire.

	Forfeiture of Unvested Restricted Stock Units
	Unless your Separation from Service triggers accelerated vesting of some or all of your Restricted Stock Units pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other written agreement between the Company (or any Affiliate) and you, including the Employment Agreement, you will automatically forfeit to the Company all of the Restricted Stock Units that have not yet vested.

	Evidence of Issuance
	The issuance of the shares upon the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units shall be evidenced in such a manner as the Company, in its discretion, will deem appropriate, including, without limitation, book-entry, registration or issuance of one or more share certificates.

	Withholding Taxes
	You agree, as a condition of this grant, that you will make acceptable arrangements to pay any withholding or other taxes that may be due as a result of vesting in Restricted Stock Units or your acquisition of Stock under this grant. In the event that the Company determines that any withholding payment is required relating to this grant under applicable laws, the Company will have the right to: (i) require that you arrange such payments to the Company, or (ii) cause an immediate forfeiture of shares of Stock subject to the Restricted Stock Units granted pursuant to this Agreement in an amount equal to the withholding or other taxes due.

	Retention Rights
	Neither your Restricted Stock Units nor this Agreement gives you the right to be retained or employed by the Company (or any Subsidiary or Affiliate) in any capacity. Subject to the Employment Agreement, the Company (and any parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate) reserve the right to terminate your Service at any time and for any reason.

	Shareholder Rights
	You do not have any of the rights of a shareholder with respect to the Restricted Stock Units unless and until the Stock relating to the Restricted Stock Units has been transferred to you, which, as noted above, shall occur within five business days of the applicable Vesting Date.

- 3 -
109649341 

	
		
	Adjustments, Change of Control
	In the event of a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend or a similar change in the Stock, the number of Restricted Stock Units covered by this grant will be adjusted proportionately (and rounded down to the nearest whole number). 
In the event of a Change in Control, this award shall be subject to the provisions addressing Change in Control as set forth in the Employment Agreement.  
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, your Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to the terms of the agreement of merger, liquidation or reorganization in the event the Company is subject to such corporate activity. However, unless you subsequently expressly consent in writing to different terms, such definitive agreement, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement or the Employment Agreement, must provide for one of the following: (a) the assumption of this award by the surviving corporation or its parent; (b) the substitution by the surviving corporation or its parent of an award with substantially the same terms as this award; or (c) the cancellation of this award after full vesting and delivery to you of the Stock then subject to the award; provided, however, that such Stock shall be considered delivered effective as of the day immediately prior to the transaction so as to enable you to participate in the transaction. In the event the definitive agreement does not provide for one of the foregoing alternatives with respect to the treatment of this award, this award shall have the treatment specified in clause (c) of the preceding sentence. The Board may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the vesting of this award in connection with any of the foregoing alternatives, but only if such acceleration would not cause any of the Stock (or the proceeds thereof) to be subject to Section 409A.

	Applicable Law
	This Agreement will be interpreted and enforced under the laws of the state of Colorado, other than any conflicts or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation of this Agreement to the substantive law of another jurisdiction.

	The Agreement
	This Agreement and the associated cover sheet constitute the entire understanding between you and the Company regarding this grant. Any agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning this grant are superseded; except that any written employment (including the Employment Agreement), consulting, confidentiality, non-competition and/or severance agreement between you and the Company (or any Affiliate), whether entered into before or after this Agreement’s effective date, shall supersede this Agreement with respect to its subject matter, provided that no such superseding shall result in a failure to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”), provided further that the initial vesting installment shall be as specified on the cover sheet to this Agreement.

	Data Privacy
	The Company may process personal data about you. Such data includes, but is not limited to the information provided in this Agreement and any changes thereto, other appropriate personal and financial data about you such as home address and business addresses and other contact information, payroll information and any other information that might be deemed appropriate by the Company to facilitate the administration of the Agreement. 
By accepting these Restricted Stock Units, you give explicit consent to the Company to process any such personal data.

	Code Section 409A
	It is intended that this Award comply with Code Section 409A or an exemption to Section 409A.  To the extent that the Company determines that you would be subject to the additional 20% tax imposed on certain non-qualified deferred compensation plans pursuant to Section 409A as a result of any provision of this Agreement, such provision shall be deemed amended to the minimum extent necessary to avoid application of such additional tax.  The nature of any such amendment shall be determined by the Company.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that you are deemed to be a "specified employee" for purposes of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, and the Company determines that the delivery of shares of Stock hereunder is subject to the provisions of Section 409A, such shares of Stock shall not be delivered until the six-month anniversary of your Separation from Service, or, if earlier, your death.

Section 1.05 Acts of Holders. 
 (a)
Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by
such holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing. Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments or record or both are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is
hereby expressly required, to the Company and the Guarantors. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent, or the holding by any Person of a Note, shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and
(subject to Section 7.01) conclusive in favor of the Trustee, the Company and the Guarantors, if made in the manner provided in this Section 1.05. 

(b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved (1) by the affidavit of a witness of
such execution or by the certificate of any notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof or (2) in
any other manner deemed reasonably sufficient by the Trustee. Where such execution is by or on behalf of any legal entity other than an individual, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute proof of the authority of the Person executing
the same. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner that the Trustee deems sufficient. 

(c) The ownership of Notes shall be proved by the Note Register. 

(d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action by the holder of any Note shall bind every future
holder of the same debt as evidenced by such 

  
 -13- 

 
Note and the holder of every Note issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by the Trustee,
the Company or the Guarantors in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note. 
 (e) The Company may,
but is not obligated to, set a record date for purposes of determining the identity of holders entitled to make, give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to be
made, or to vote on or consent to any action authorized or permitted to be taken by holders; provided that the Company may not set a record date for, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to, the giving or making
of any notice, declaration, request or direction referred to in clause (f) below. Unless otherwise specified, if not set by the Company prior to the first solicitation of a holder made by any Person in respect of any such action, or in the case
of any such vote, prior to such vote, any such record date shall be the later of 30 days prior to the first solicitation of such consent or vote or the date of the most recent list of holders furnished to the Trustee prior to such solicitation or
vote. If any record date is set pursuant to this clause (e), the holders on such record date, and only such holders, shall be entitled to make, give or take such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action
(including revocation of any action), whether or not such holders remain holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless made, given or taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by
holders of the requisite principal amount of Notes, or each affected holder, as applicable, on such record date. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Company, at its own expense, shall cause notice of such record
date, the proposed action by holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Trustee in writing and to each holder in the manner set forth in Section 12.02. 

(f) During the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee may set any day as a record date. If any record date is set pursuant to this
paragraph, the holders on such record date, and no other holders, shall be entitled to join in such notice, declaration, request or direction, whether or not such holders remain holders after such record date; provided that no such action
shall be effective hereunder unless made, given or taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by holders of the requisite principal amount of Notes or each affected holder, as applicable, on such record date. Promptly after any record date
is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee, at the Company’s expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Company and to each holder in the manner set
forth in Section 12.02. 
 (g) Without limiting the foregoing, a holder entitled to take any action hereunder with regard to any
particular Note may do so with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Note or by one or more duly appointed agents, each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount. Any
notice given or action taken by a holder or its agents with regard to different parts of such principal amount pursuant to this paragraph shall have the same effect as if given or taken by separate holders of each such different part. 

(h) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a holder, including a Depositary that is the holder of a Global Note, may make, give or
take, by a proxy or proxies duly appointed in writing, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to be made, given or taken by holders, and a Depositary that is the holder of a
Global Note may provide its proxy or proxies to the beneficial owners of interests in any such Global Note through such Depositary’s standing instructions and customary practices. 

(i) The Company may, but is not obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Persons who are beneficial owners of
interests in any Global Note held by a Depositary entitled under the procedures of such Depositary, if any, to make, give or take, by a proxy or proxies duly 

  
 -14- 

 
appointed in writing, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to be made, given or taken by holders; provided that
if such a record date is fixed, only the beneficial owners of interests in such Global Note on such record date or their duly appointed proxy or proxies shall be entitled to make, give or take such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other action, whether or not such beneficial owners remain beneficial owners of interests in such Global Note after such record date. No such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action shall
be effective hereunder unless made, given or taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date. 
 (j) With respect to any record date set
pursuant to this Section 1.05, the party hereto that sets such record date may designate any day as the “Expiration Date” and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided that no
such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration Date is given to the other party hereto in writing, and to each holder of Notes in the manner set forth in Section 12.02, on or prior to both the existing and the new
Expiration Date; provided further, that no Expiration Date shall be later than the 90th day after the relevant record date. If an Expiration Date is not designated with respect to any
record date set pursuant to this Section 1.05, the party hereto which set such record date shall be deemed to have designated the 90th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to its right to change the
Expiration Date as provided in this clause (j). 
 ARTICLE 2 

THE NOTES 
 Section 2.01 Form and Dating;
Terms. 
 (a) Provisions relating to the Initial Notes, Additional Notes, Exchange Notes and any other Notes issued under this Indenture
are set forth in Appendix A, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Indenture. The Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall each be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, which is
hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Indenture. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, rules or agreements with national securities exchanges to which the Company or any Guarantor is subject, if
any, or usage (provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Company). Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. The Notes shall be in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of
$1,000 in excess thereof. 
 (b) The aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is
unlimited. 
 The terms and provisions contained in the Notes shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture, and
the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision of any Note conflicts with the express
provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling. 
 The Notes shall be subject to repurchase
by the Company pursuant to a Change of Control Offer as provided in Section 4.10, and otherwise as not prohibited by this Indenture. The Notes shall not be redeemable, other than as provided in Article 3. 

Additional Notes may be created and issued from time to time by the Company without notice to or consent of the holders and shall be
consolidated with and form a single class with the Initial Notes and the Exchange Notes and shall have the same terms as to status, redemption or otherwise (other 

  
 -15- 

 
than issue date, issue price and, if applicable, the first Interest Payment Date and the first date from which interest will accrue) as the Initial Notes; provided that if any such
Additional Notes are not fungible with the Initial Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such Additional Notes will have one or more separate CUSIP numbers. Any Additional Notes shall be issued with the benefit of an indenture supplemental to
this Indenture. 
 Section 2.02 Execution and Authentication. 

(a) At least one Officer shall execute the Notes on behalf of the Company by manual or facsimile signature. If an Officer whose signature is
on a Note no longer holds that office at the time a Note is authenticated, the Note shall nevertheless be valid. 
 (b) A Note shall not be
entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose until authenticated substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto by the manual signature of an authorized signatory of the Trustee. The signature
shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been duly authenticated and delivered under this Indenture. 
 (c) On the Issue Date, the
Trustee shall, upon receipt of a written order of the Company signed by an Officer (an “Authentication Order”), authenticate and deliver the Initial Notes; provided that the Trustee shall be entitled to receive an Officer’s
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel of the Company addressing such matters as the Trustee may reasonably request in connection with such authentication of such Notes. In addition, at any time and from time to time, the Trustee shall, upon receipt
of an Authentication Order, authenticate and deliver any Additional Notes and Exchange Notes in an aggregate principal amount specified in such Authentication Order for such Additional Notes or Exchange Notes issued hereunder. 

(d) The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Company to authenticate Notes. An authenticating agent may authenticate
Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with holders, the Company or an Affiliate
of the Company. 
 (e) The Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery upon a written order of the Company signed by one
Officer of the Company (a) Initial Notes for original issue on the Issue Date in an aggregate principal amount of $750,000,000, and (b) Additional Notes, (c) the Exchange Notes for issue only in an Exchange Offer and pursuant to
the Registration Rights Agreement and for a like principal amount of Initial Notes exchanged pursuant thereto and (d) any other Unrestricted Global Notes issued in exchange for any of the foregoing in accordance with this Indenture. Such order
shall specify the amount of the Notes to be authenticated, the date on which the original issue of Notes is to be authenticated, whether the Notes are to be Initial Notes, Additional Notes, Exchange Notes or other Unrestricted Global Notes and other
information the Company may determine to include or the Trustee may reasonably request. 
 Section 2.03 Registrar and Paying Agent. 

(a) The Company shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange
(“Registrar”) and at least one office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”). The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes (“Note Register”) and of their transfer
and exchange. The Company may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar, and the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying
agent. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without prior notice to any holder. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name 

  
 -16- 

 
and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Company fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Company or any
of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar. 
 (b) The Company initially appoints DTC to act as Depositary with respect to the
Global Notes. The Company initially appoints the Trustee to act as Paying Agent and Registrar for the Notes and to act as Custodian with respect to the Global Notes. The Company has entered into a letter of representations with DTC in the form
provided by DTC and the Trustee and each Agent are hereby authorized to act in accordance with such letter and Applicable Procedures. 
 (c)
The Company shall be responsible for making calculations called for under the Notes and this Indenture, including but not limited to determination of interest, Additional Interest, redemption price, Applicable Premium, premium, if any, and any
additional amounts or other amounts payable on the Notes. The Company will make the calculations in good faith and, absent manifest error, its calculations will be final and binding on the holders. The Trustee is entitled to rely conclusively on the
accuracy of the Company’s calculations without independent verification. 
 Section 2.04 Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. 

The Company shall, no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on each due date for the payment of principal and interest on any of the
Notes, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such amount, such sum to be held in trust for the holders entitled to the same, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of its action or
failure so to act. The Company shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that such Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of holders or the Trustee all money held by such Paying Agent for the payment of
principal and interest on the Notes, and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The
Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, a Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money. If the Company or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall
segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Company, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes. 

Section 2.05 Holder Lists. 
 The
Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of all holders and shall otherwise comply with Trust Indenture Act Section 312(b). If the Trustee is not
the Registrar, the Registrar shall, upon request by the Company, furnish to the Trustee at least two Business Days before each Interest Payment Date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such
date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the holders. The Company shall otherwise comply with Trust Indenture Act Section 312(a). 

Section 2.06 Transfer and Exchange. 

(a) The Notes shall be issued in registered form and shall be transferable only upon the surrender of a Note for registration of transfer and
in compliance with Appendix A. 
 (b) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute and the Trustee
shall authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02 or at the Registrar’s request. 

  
 -17- 

 (c) No service charge shall be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or
exchange (other than pursuant to Section 2.07), but the holders shall be required to pay any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes or similar governmental charge payable
upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.10, 3.06, 4.08(g) and 9.05). 
 (d) All Global Notes and Definitive Notes issued upon any
registration of transfer or exchange of Global Notes or Definitive Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global Notes or Definitive Notes
surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 
 (e) Neither the Company nor the Registrar shall be required (1) to
issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of any selection of Notes for redemption under Section 3.02 and ending at the close of business on the day of
selection, (2) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note so selected for redemption, or tendered for repurchase (and not withdrawn) in connection with a Change of Control Offer, in whole or in part, except the unredeemed or
unpurchased portion of any Note being redeemed or repurchased in part or (3) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note between a Record Date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date. 

(f) Prior to due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any Note, the Trustee, any Agent and the Company may deem and treat the
Person in whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal and (subject to the Record Date provisions of the Notes) interest on such Notes and for all other purposes, and none of
the Trustee, any Agent or the Company shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 (g) Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any
Note at the office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 4.02, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and mail, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more replacement Notes of
any authorized denomination or denominations of a like aggregate principal amount. 
 (h) At the option of the holder, Notes may be
exchanged for other Notes of any authorized denomination or denominations of a like aggregate principal amount upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Global Notes or Definitive Notes are so surrendered for
exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and mail, the replacement Global Notes and Definitive Notes which the holder making the exchange is entitled to in accordance with the provisions of Appendix A. 

(i) All certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to be submitted to the Registrar pursuant to this Section 2.06 to
effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by mail or by facsimile or electronic transmission. 
 Section 2.07 Replacement
Notes. 
 If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or if a holder claims that its Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully
taken and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the ownership and loss, destruction or theft of such Note, the Company shall issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate a replacement Note if the
Trustee’s requirements are otherwise met. If required by the Trustee or the Company, an indemnity bond must be provided by the holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee, any
Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Company may charge the holder for the expenses of the Company and the Trustee in 

  
 -18- 

 
replacing a Note. Every replacement Note is a contractual obligation of the Company and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes
duly issued hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.07, in case any mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead
of issuing a new Note, pay such Note. 
 Section 2.08 Outstanding Notes. 

(a) The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it
for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.09, a Note
does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Note; provided that Notes held by the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company will not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of Section 3.07(b).

 (b) If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it
that the replaced Note is held by a bona fide protected purchaser, as such term is defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State of New York. 

(c) On or after the maturity date or any redemption date or date for purchase of the Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer, those Notes
payable or to be redeemed or purchased on that date for which the Trustee (or Paying Agent, other than the Company or an Affiliate of the Company) holds money sufficient to pay all amounts then due will cease to be outstanding for all purposes under
this Indenture. 
 (d) If a Paying Agent (other than the Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on the maturity date,
any redemption date or any date of purchase pursuant to a Change of Control Offer, money sufficient to pay Notes payable or to be redeemed or purchased on that date, then on and after that date such Notes shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding
and shall cease to accrue interest. 
 Section 2.09 Treasury Notes. 

In determining whether the holders of the requisite principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes
beneficially owned by the Company, or by any Affiliate of the Company, shall be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or
consent, only Notes that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Notes so owned which have been pledged in good faith shall not be disregarded if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the
pledgee’s right to deliver any such direction, waiver or consent with respect to the Notes and that the pledgee is not the Company or any obligor upon the Notes or any Affiliate of the Company or of such other obligor. 

Section 2.10 Temporary Notes. 

Until definitive Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall
authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of definitive Notes but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without
unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Notes in 

  
 -19- 

 
exchange for temporary Notes. Upon surrender for cancellation of any temporary Notes the Company will execute and the Trustee will authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal
amount of definitive Notes of authorized denominations. Holders and beneficial holders, as the case may be, of temporary Notes shall be entitled to all of the benefits accorded to holders, or beneficial holders, respectively, of Notes under
this Indenture. 
 Section 2.11 Cancellation. 

The Company at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any
Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee or, at the direction of the Trustee, the Registrar or the Paying Agent and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer,
exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall dispose of cancelled Notes in accordance with its customary procedures (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act). Certification of the cancellation of all cancelled
Notes shall, upon the written request of the Company, be delivered to the Company. The Company may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 

Section 2.12 Defaulted Interest. 

(a) If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes under Section 4.01 of this Indenture, it shall pay the defaulted
interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are holders on a subsequent special record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01. The
Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the
aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such defaulted interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the
benefit of the Persons entitled to such defaulted interest as provided in this Section 2.12. The Trustee shall fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date; provided that no such special record date shall be
less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such special record date. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Company (or, upon the written request of
the Company, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company) shall mail or deliver by electronic transmission in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary, or cause to be mailed or delivered by electronic transmission in
accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary to each holder a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid. 

(b) Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.12, each Note delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of
or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue interest, which were carried by such other Note. 

Section 2.13 CUSIP and ISIN Numbers. 

The Company in issuing the Notes may use CUSIP or ISIN numbers (if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee may use CUSIP or ISIN
numbers in notices as a convenience to holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice and that reliance may be
placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such notice shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the CUSIP or ISIN
numbers.

 ARTICLE 3 

REDEMPTION 
 Section 3.01 Notices to
Trustee. 
 If the Company elects to redeem Notes pursuant to Section 3.07, it shall furnish to the Trustee, at least three
Business Days before notice of redemption is required to be mailed or sent to holders pursuant to Section 3.03 but not more than 60 days before a redemption date (unless a shorter notice shall be agreed to by the Trustee), an Officer’s
Certificate setting forth (1) the redemption date, (2) the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (3) the redemption price, if then ascertainable. If the redemption price is not known at the time such notice is to be given,
the actual redemption price calculated as described in the terms of the Notes will be set forth in an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee no later than two Business Days prior to the redemption date. 

Section 3.02 Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed or Purchased. 

(a) If the Company is redeeming less than all the Notes at any time, the Trustee shall select the Notes on a pro rata basis by lot or
by such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion deems to be fair and appropriate; provided, however, that Global Notes will be selected in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC. In the event of partial redemption
or purchase by lot, the particular Notes to be redeemed or purchased shall be selected, unless otherwise provided herein, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date by the Trustee from the then outstanding Notes not
previously called for redemption or purchase. 
 (b) The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Notes selected for
redemption or purchase and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption or purchase, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed or purchased. Notes and portions of Notes selected shall be in amounts of $2,000 or integral multiples of
$1,000 in excess thereof. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption or purchase also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase. 

(c) After the redemption date or purchase date, upon surrender of a Note to be redeemed or purchased in part only, a new Note or Notes in
principal amount equal to the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of the original Note, representing the same Debt to the extent not redeemed or not purchased, shall be issued in the name of the holder of the Notes upon cancellation of the original
Note (or appropriate book entries shall be made to reflect such partial redemption). 
 Section 3.03 Notice of Redemption. 

(a) The Company shall mail or deliver by electronic transmission in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary, or cause to
be mailed (or delivered by electronic transmission in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary) notices of redemption of Notes not less than 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder whose Notes
are to be redeemed pursuant to this Article at such holder’s registered address or otherwise in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary, except that redemption notices may be mailed or sent more than 60 days prior to a
redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with Article 8 or Article 11. 

  
 -21- 

 (b) The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed (including CUSIP and ISIN number, if
applicable) and shall state: 
 (1) the redemption date; 

(2) the redemption price, including the portion thereof representing any accrued and unpaid interest; provided that in
connection with a redemption under Section 3.07(a), the notice need not set forth the redemption price but only the manner of calculation thereof; 

(3) if any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the portion of the principal amount of that Note that is to be redeemed; 

(4) the name and address of the Paying Agent; 

(5) that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price; 

(6) that, unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment, interest on Notes called for redemption ceases to
accrue on and after the redemption date; 
 (7) the paragraph or subparagraph of the Notes or Section of this Indenture
pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed; 
 (8) that no representation is made as to the
correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP or ISIN number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes; and 
 (9) if
applicable, any condition to such redemption. 
 (c) At the Company’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the
Company’s name and at the Company’s expense; provided that the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least three Business Days before notice of redemption is required to be sent or caused to be sent to holders pursuant to
this Section 3.03 (unless a shorter notice shall be agreed to by the Trustee), an Officer’s Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting forth the notice to be given as an exhibit thereto. 

Section 3.04 Effect of Notice of Redemption. 

Once notice of redemption is mailed or sent in accordance with Section 3.03, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and
payable on the redemption date at the redemption price. The notice, if mailed or delivered by electronic transmission in a manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the holder receives such notice. In
any case, failure to give such notice or any defect in the notice to the holder of any Note designated for redemption in whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Note. Subject to
Section 3.05, on and after the redemption date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption, unless subject to a condition precedent that has not been satisfied. If any such condition precedent has not been
satisfied, the Company shall provide written notice to the Trustee prior to the close of business two Business days prior to the redemption date. Upon receipt of such notice, the notice of redemption shall be rescinded and the redemption of the
notes shall not occur. Upon receipt, the Trustee shall provide such notice to each holder of the Notes in the same manner in which the notice of redemption was given. 

  
 -22- 

 Section 3.05 Deposit of Redemption or Purchase Price. 

(a) No later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the redemption or purchase date (or such later time as such date to which the Trustee may
reasonably agree), the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption or purchase price of and accrued and unpaid interest on all Notes to be redeemed or purchased on that date. If a Note is
redeemed or purchased on or after a Record Date but on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, then any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the holder of record on such Record Date. The Paying Agent shall promptly mail to each holder
whose Notes are to be redeemed or repurchased the applicable redemption or purchase price thereof and accrued and unpaid interest thereon. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Company any money deposited with the Trustee or
the Paying Agent by the Company in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption or purchase price of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, all Notes to be redeemed or purchased. 

(b) If the Company complies with the provisions of Section 3.05(a), on and after the redemption or purchase date, interest shall cease to
accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase. If a Note is redeemed or purchased on or after a Record Date but on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, then any accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption
or purchase date in respect of such Note will be paid on such redemption or purchase date to the Person in whose name such Note is registered at the close of business on such Record Date. If any Note called for redemption or purchase shall not be so
paid upon surrender for redemption or purchase because of the failure of the Company to comply with Section 3.05(a), interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption or purchase date until such principal is paid, and, to the
extent lawful, on any interest accrued to the redemption or purchase date not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01. 

Section 3.06 Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part. 

Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed or purchased in part, the Company shall issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the
Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail to the holder (or cause to be transferred by book entry) at the expense of the Company a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered representing
the same Debt to the extent not redeemed or purchased; provided that each new Note shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. It is understood that, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture
to the contrary, only an Authentication Order and not an Opinion of Counsel or Officer’s Certificate is required for the Trustee to authenticate such new Note. 

Section 3.07 Optional Redemption. 

(a) At any time prior to August 1, 2022 (three months prior to the maturity date), the Company will be entitled, at its option, to redeem
all or a portion of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding the redemption date. Notice of such redemption must
be mailed by first-class mail (or delivered by electronic transmission in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC) to each holder’s registered address, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date. 

(b) In addition, on or after August 1, 2022 (three months prior to the maturity date of the Notes), we may redeem the Notes in whole or
in part at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including the redemption date. 

(c) Any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06.

unpaid interest in respect of Notes subject to redemption will be paid on the redemption date to the Person in whose name the Note is registered at the close of business, on such Record Date, and no additional interest will be payable to holders
whose Notes will be subject to redemption by the Company.

at the Company’s discretion, be given prior to the completion or the occurrence thereof and any such redemption or notice may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to,
completion or occurrence of the related transaction or event.

The Company may also from time to time designate additional offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all
such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations. The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

Section 2.03. 
 Section 4.03 Taxes. 

The Company shall pay, and shall cause each of its Significant Subsidiaries to pay, prior to delinquency, all taxes, assessments and

aggregate, a material adverse effect (1) upon the financial condition, business or results of operations of the Company and its Significant Subsidiaries and (2) on the ability of the Company and its Significant Subsidiaries to perform
their respective obligations under the Notes or this Indenture.

things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect (1) its corporate existence and the corporate, partnership, limited liability company or other existence of each of its Significant Subsidiaries, in accordance with the respective
organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary and (2) the material rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Company and its Significant Subsidiaries;
provided that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the corporate, partnership, limited liability company or other existence of any of its Significant Subsidiaries, if the Company in good faith

(B) all Attributable Debt of the Company and the Subsidiaries of the Company in respect of Sale/Leaseback Transactions with
respect to Properties (with the exception of such transactions that are permitted under clauses (1)-(4) of Section 4.11 below) 

would not exceed the greater of (x) $1,750.0 million and (y) the amount that would cause the Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio to exceed 2.50 to 1.00.

Offer”) stating:

 (8) (i) the Company or a Significant Subsidiary, pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy

 -32- 

 However, a default under clauses (4), (5), (6) and (9) of this Section 6.01 will not
constitute an Event of Default until the Trustee or the holders of 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes notify the Company (with a copy to the Trustee if given by the holders) of the default and the Company does not cure such default
within the time specified after receipt of such notice. In the event of any Event of Default specified under clause (7), such Event of Default and all consequences thereof (excluding any resulting payment default, other than as a result of
acceleration of Notes) shall be annulled, waived and rescinded, automatically and without any action by the Trustee or the holders, if within 30 days after such Event of Default arose: (a) holders thereof have rescinded or waived the
acceleration, notice or action (as the case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default or (b) the default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured. 

Section 6.02 Acceleration. 
 (a) If
an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may by written notice to the Company (and to the Trustee if notice is given by the holders) declare the principal
of and accrued but unpaid interest, if any, and premium, if any, on all the Notes to be due and payable. Upon such declaration, such principal, interest and premium, if any, shall be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default under
Section 6.01(a)(8) hereof occurs and is continuing, the principal of and interest (and premium, if any) on all the Notes will ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the
Trustee or any holders of the Notes. The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee on behalf of all of the holders rescind an acceleration may rescind any such acceleration
with respect to the Notes and its consequences. 
 (b) Subject to Article 7, in case an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the
Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the holders of the Notes unless such holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to it
against any loss, liability or expense and then only to the extent required by the terms of this Indenture. 
 Section 6.03 Other Remedies. 

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, premium, if
any, and interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture. 
 The Trustee may maintain a
proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any holder of a Note in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not
impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law. 

Section 6.04 Waiver of Past Defaults. 

The holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may on behalf of all holders waive any
existing Default and its consequences hereunder, except: 
 (1) a continuing Default in the payment of the principal or
interest on any Note held by a non-consenting holder; and 
 (2) a Default with respect to a provision that under
Section 9.02 cannot be amended without the consent of each holder affected, 

  
 -33- 

 provided that, subject to Section 6.06, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the then
outstanding Notes may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall
be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

Section 6.05 Control by Majority. 

The holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for
any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial
to the rights of any other holder of a Note (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not any such directions are unduly prejudicial to such holders) or that would involve the Trustee in personal
liability. 
 Section 6.06 Limitation on Suits. 

Subject to Section 6.07, no holder may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless: 

(1) such holder has previously given the Trustee notice that an Event of Default is continuing; 

(2) holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes have requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

 (3) such holders have offered the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or
expense; 
 (4) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt of the request and the offer
of security or indemnity; and 
 (5) holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes have not given
the Trustee a written direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period. 
 A holder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of
another holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another holder. 
 Section 6.07 Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any holder to receive payment of principal and interest on its Note, on or
after the respective due dates expressed or provided for in such Note, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such holder. 

  
 -34- 

 Section 6.08 Collection Suit by Trustee. 

If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(1) or (2) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own
name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company and any other obligor on the Notes for the whole amount of principal and interest remaining unpaid on the Notes, together with interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful,
interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable fees and expenses of the Trustee and its agents and counsel. 

Section 6.09 Restoration of Rights and Remedies. 

If the Trustee or any holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been
discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceedings, the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the holders
shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Company, Guarantors, Trustee and the holders shall continue as though no such proceeding has been instituted. 

Section 6.10 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. 

Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes in Section 2.07, no
right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy are, to the extent permitted by law, cumulative and in addition to every other
right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other
appropriate right or remedy. 
 Section 6.11 Delay or Omission Not Waiver. 

No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any holder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such
right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed
expedient, by the Trustee or by the holders, as the case may be. 
 Section 6.12 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 

The Trustee may file proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee
(including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company (or any other obligor upon
the Notes, including the Guarantors), its creditors or its property and is entitled and empowered to participate as a member in any official committee of creditors appointed in such matter and to collect, receive and distribute any money or other
property payable or deliverable on any such claims. Any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such
payments directly to the holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable fees and expenses of the Trustee and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07. To the extent that the
payment of any such fees and expenses of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be
secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the holders may be entitled to receive in such 

  
 -35- 

 
proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or
accept or adopt on behalf of any holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any holder in any such
proceeding. 
 Section 6.13 Priorities.

 (3) to the
Company or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct, including a Guarantor, if applicable. 
 The Trustee may fix a record date and
payment date for any payment to holders pursuant to this Section 6.13. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this Section 6.13, the Trustee shall cause notice of such record date and payment date to be given to the Company and
to each holder in the manner set forth in Section 12.02. 
 Section 6.14 Undertaking for Costs. 

In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted
by it as a Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’
fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.14 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a holder pursuant to
Section 6.07, or a suit by holders of more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes.

be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (1) through (4) below, and to have satisfied all of its other obligations under such Notes
and this Indenture, including that of the Guarantors under their Guarantees (and the Trustee, at the request of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until
otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: 
 (1) the rights of holders to receive payments in respect of the principal,
premium, if any, and interest on the Notes when such payments are due, solely out of the trust referred to in Section 8.04; 

(2) the Company’s obligations with respect to the Notes concerning issuing temporary Notes, registration of Notes,
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for Note payments held in trust; 

(3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee, and the Company’s obligations in connection
therewith; and 
 (4) this Section 8.02. 

(b) If the Company exercises its Legal Defeasance option, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default with
respect to the Notes. 
 (c) Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 8.02
notwithstanding its prior exercise of its option under Section 8.03. 

  
 -42- 

 Section 8.03 Covenant Defeasance. 

Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Company and the Guarantors
shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, be released from their obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.03, 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10 and 4.11, and the Guarantors shall be
deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all Guarantees, on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied (“Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes shall thereafter be
deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding”
for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to this Indenture and the outstanding Notes, the Company
may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any
reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this
Indenture and such Notes shall be unaffected thereby. If the Company exercises its Covenant Defeasance option, an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(4), 6.01(a)(5), 6.01(a)(6) (only with respect to covenants that are released as a
result of such Covenant Defeasance), 6.01(a)(7), 6.01(a)(8) (solely with respect to Significant Subsidiaries), Section 6.01(a)(9) or 6.01(a)(10), in each case, shall not constitute an Event of Default. 

Section 8.04 Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. 

(a) The following shall be the conditions to the exercise of either the Legal Defeasance option under Section 8.02 or the Covenant
Defeasance option under Section 8.03 with respect to the Notes: 
 (1) the Company must irrevocably deposit with the
Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the holders, cash in U.S. dollars, Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, a
nationally recognized investment bank or a nationally recognized appraisal or valuation firm delivered to the Trustee, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay the principal, premium, if any, and interest due on the outstanding
Notes on the Stated Maturity or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Company must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to maturity or to a particular redemption date; 

(2) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that, subject to
customary assumptions and exclusions, 
 (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the U.S. Internal
Revenue Service a ruling, or 
 (B) since the Issue Date, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax
law, 
 in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel will confirm that the beneficial owners will be subject
to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred; 

  
 -43- 

 (3) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Company has delivered to the Trustee
an Opinion of Counsel confirming that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, the beneficial owners will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if
such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred; 
 (4) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date
of such deposit or will occur as a result of such deposit (other than a Default or an Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to make such deposit and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Debt and, in
each case, the granting of Liens in connection therewith) and the deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, the Credit Agreements or any other material agreement or material debt instrument (other than this
Indenture) to which the Company or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Company or any Guarantor is bound; 
 (5) the
Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel (which Opinion of Counsel may be subject to customary assumptions and exclusions), each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal
Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, have been complied with; and 
 (6) the Company has delivered
irrevocable instructions to the Trustee to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at maturity or the redemption date, as the case may be. 

Section 8.05 Deposited Money and Government Securities to Be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. 

(a) Subject to Section 8.06, all money and Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee pursuant to
Section 8.04 in respect of the outstanding Notes shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the
Company or a Guarantor acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the holders of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal and interest on the Notes, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to
the extent required by law 
 (b) Anything in this Article 8 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee will deliver or pay to the Company
from time to time upon the request of the Company any money or Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, a nationally recognized
investment bank or a nationally recognized appraisal or valuation firm expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(a)), are in excess of the amount thereof that
would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 
 Section 8.06 Repayment to the
Company. 
 Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the
principal or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on its request or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and
the holder of such Note shall thereafter look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall

  
 -44- 

 
thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may cause to be published once, in The New York
Times or The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 10 days from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed
balance of such money then remaining shall be repaid to the Company. 
 Section 8.07 Reinstatement. 

If and for so long as the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any U.S. dollars or Government Securities in accordance with
Section 8.02 or Section 8.03, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company’s and the Guarantors’
obligations under this Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or Section 8.03 until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply
all such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or Section 8.03, as the case may be; provided that, if the Company makes any payment of principal or interest on any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company
shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent. 
 ARTICLE 9

 AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER 

Section 9.01 Without Consent of Holders. 

(a) Notwithstanding Section 9.02, without the consent of any holder of the Notes, the Company, the Guarantors and Trustee may amend or
supplement this Indenture: 
 (1) to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency, as determined in good faith by
the Company; 
 (2) to provide for the assumption by a successor Person of the obligations of the Company or any Guarantor
under this Indenture; 
 (3) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes (provided
that the uncertificated Notes are issued in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of the Code); 
 (4) to add
guarantees with respect to the Notes, including any Guarantees, or to secure the Notes; 
 (5) to add to the covenants of the
Company or any Subsidiary for the benefit of the holders of the Notes or to surrender any right or power conferred upon the Company or any Subsidiary; 

(6) to make any change that does not materially adversely affect the rights of any holder of the Notes, as determined in good
faith by the Company; 
 (7) to comply with any requirement of the SEC in connection with any required qualification of this
Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act; 

  
 -45- 

 (8) to provide for the issuance of Exchange Notes or private exchange notes
(which shall be identical to Exchange Notes except that they will not be freely transferable) and which shall be treated, together with any outstanding Notes, as a single class of securities; 

(9) to conform the text of this Indenture, Guarantees or the Notes to any provision of the “Description of notes”
section of the Offering Memorandum, as determined in good faith by the Company; 
 (10) to release a Guarantor from its
Guarantee when permitted by the terms of this Indenture; 
 (11) to provide for successor trustees or to add to or change any
provisions to the extent necessary to appoint a separate trustee for the Notes; or 
 (12) to make any amendment to the
provisions of this Indenture relating to the transfer and legending of Notes as permitted by this Indenture, including, without limitation, to facilitate the issuance and administration of the Notes, Exchange Notes or, if incurred in compliance with
this Indenture, Additional Notes; provided, however, that (A) compliance with this Indenture as so amended would not result in Notes being transferred in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable securities law and
(B) such amendment does not materially and adversely affect the rights of holders to transfer Notes, as determined in good faith by the Company. 

Section 9.02 With Consent of Holders. 

Except as provided in Section 9.01 and this Section 9.02, this Indenture may be amended with the consent of the holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange for the Notes) and any past default or compliance with any provisions may also be waived with the consent of the
holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding. However, without the consent of each holder of an outstanding Note affected thereby, an amendment or waiver may not, among other things: 

(1) reduce the amount of Notes whose holders must consent to an amendment; 

(2) reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest on any Note; 

(3) reduce the principal of or extend the Stated Maturity of any Note; 

(4) change the optional redemption dates or prices or calculations from those described in Section 3.07; 

(5) make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the Note;

holder’s Notes after any Interest Payment Date, Stated Maturity or any redemption date, as applicable; 
 (7) make any
change in the amendment provisions which require each holder’s consent or in the waiver provisions; 
 (8) make any
change in the ranking or priority of any Note or Guarantee that would adversely affect the noteholders; or 
 (9) release any
Guarantor from its Guarantee, except as provided for in this Indenture. 

  
 -46- 

 (b) The consent of the holders of the Notes is not necessary under this Indenture to approve the
particular form of any proposed amendment. It is sufficient if such consent approves the substance of the proposed amendment. 
 (c) After
an amendment under this Indenture becomes effective, the Company is required to mail (or deliver by electronic transmission in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC) to holders of the Notes a notice briefly describing such amendment.
However, the failure to give such notice to all holders of the Notes, or any defect therein, will not impair or affect the validity of the amendment. 

Section 9.03 Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. 

If this Indenture is qualified under the Trust Indenture Act, every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes shall be set forth
in an amended or supplemental indenture that complies with the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect. 
 Section 9.04 Revocation and Effect of
Consents. 
 (a) Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a holder of a Note is a continuing
consent by the holder of a Note and every subsequent holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such holder of a Note
or subsequent holder of a Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the waiver, supplement or amendment becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in
accordance with its terms. 
 (b) After an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, it will bind every holder unless it is of the
type requiring the consent of each holder affected. If the amendment, supplement or waiver is of the type requiring the consent of each holder affected, the amendment, supplement or waiver will bind each holder that has consented to it and
every subsequent holder of a Note that evidences the same debt as the Note of the consenting holder. 
 (c) The Company may, but shall not
be obligated to, fix a record date pursuant to Section 1.05 for the purpose of determining the holders entitled to consent to any amendment, supplement or waiver. 

Section 9.05 Notation on or Exchange of Notes. 

(a) The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Company
in exchange for all outstanding Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver. 

(b) Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or
waiver. 

  
 -47- 

 Section 9.06 Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc. 

Upon request of the Company, and if applicable upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the consent of holders, the trustee shall sign
any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment, supplement or waiver does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. In executing any amendment, supplement or
waiver, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 12.04, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel
stating that the execution of such amendment, supplement or waiver is authorized or permitted by this Indenture, subject to customary exceptions, and complies with the provisions hereof (including Section 9.03) and an Opinion of Counsel stating
that such amendment, supplement or waiver is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company and any Guarantor party thereto, enforceable against them in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions. The Trustee may, but is not
obligated to, execute any amendment, supplement or waiver that affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Indenture. 

ARTICLE 10 
 GUARANTEES 

Section 10.01 Guarantee. 
 (a)
Subject to this Article 10, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, on a senior unsecured basis, to each holder and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity
and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Company hereunder or thereunder, that: (1) the principal and interest on the Notes shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration,
redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Company to the holders or the Trustee hereunder or under the Notes shall be promptly paid in full or
performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (2) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same shall be promptly paid in full when due or performed in
accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”. Failing payment by the Company when due of any amount so guaranteed or any
performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection. 

(b) The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or
enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any holder with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to
enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event
of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that this Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the
obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture, or pursuant to Section 10.06. 
 (c) Each Guarantor’s obligations hereunder
will remain in full force and effect until the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes and all other amounts payable by the Company under the Indenture have been paid in full. If at any time any payment of the principal of,
premium, if any, or interest on any Note or any other amount payable by the Company under the Indenture is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company or otherwise, each
Guarantor’s obligations hereunder with respect to such payment will be reinstated as though such payment had been due but not made at such time. 

  
 -48- 

 (d) Each of the Guarantors also agrees, jointly and severally, to pay any and all costs and
expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustee or any holder in enforcing any rights under this Section 10.01. 

(e) If any holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee,
liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to the Company or the Guarantors, any amount paid either to the Trustee or such holder, such Guarantor’s Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force
and effect. 
 (f) Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the holders and the Trustee, on the
other hand, (1) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect
of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (2) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the
Guarantors for the purpose of this Guarantee. Each Guarantor that makes a payment under its Guarantee will be entitled upon payment in full of all guaranteed obligations under this Indenture to a contribution from each other Guarantor in an amount
equal to such other Guarantor’s pro rata portion of such payment based on the respective net assets of all the Guarantors at the time of such payment determined in accordance with GAAP. 

(g) Each Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Company
for liquidation or reorganization, should the Company become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of the Company’s assets, and shall, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Notes are, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or
returned by any obligee on the Notes or the Guarantees, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent transfer” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment or any
part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Notes shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned. 

(h) In case any provision of any Guarantee shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the
remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 
 (i) Each payment to be made by a Guarantor in respect of its
Guarantee shall be made without set-off, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any kind or nature. 
 Section 10.02 Limitation on Guarantor
Liability. 
 Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties
that the Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent conveyance or a fraudulent transfer for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to
the extent applicable to any Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of each Guarantor shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving
effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws and after giving effect to any collections 

  
 -49- 

 
from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 10, result in the
obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law.
Each Guarantor that makes a payment under its Guarantee will be entitled upon payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations under this Indenture to a contribution from each other Guarantor in an amount equal to such other Guarantor’s pro
rata portion of such payment based on the respective net assets of all the Guarantors at the time of such payment, determined in accordance with GAAP. 

Section 10.03 Execution and Delivery. 

(a) To evidence its Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01, each Guarantor hereby agrees that this Indenture (or a supplemental indenture
in the form of Exhibit C hereto) shall be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by an Officer or person holding an equivalent title. 
 (b)
Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of any notation of such Guarantee on the Notes. 

(c) If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note, the
Guarantees shall be valid nevertheless. 
 (d) The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall
constitute due delivery of the Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors. 
 Section 10.04 Subrogation. 

Each Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of holders against the Company in respect of any amounts paid by any Guarantor until payment
in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby; provided that, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Guarantor shall be entitled to enforce or receive any payments arising out of, or based upon, such right of subrogation
until all amounts then due and payable by the Company under this Indenture or the Notes shall have been paid in full. 
 Section 10.05 Benefits
Acknowledged. 
 Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements
contemplated by this Indenture and that the guarantee and waivers made by it pursuant to its Guarantee are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits. 

Section 10.06 Release of Guarantees. 

(a) The Guarantee of a Guarantor will be automatically released: 

(1) upon the sale or other disposition (including by way of consolidation or merger) of a Guarantor; 

(2) upon the sale or disposition of all or substantially all the assets of a Guarantor; 

(3) at such time as such Guarantor no longer guarantees any (i) Debt Facility with aggregate principal amount of $75.0
million or more (including, without limitation, the Credit Agreements) or (ii) Material Capital Markets Debt of the Company; 

  
 -50- 

 (4) upon the defeasance of the Notes, as provided under Article 8; or 

(5) as described under Article 9, 

in the case of clause (1) or (2), other than to the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company and as permitted by this Indenture. 

(b) If the Guarantee of any Guarantor is deemed to be released or is automatically released, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an
Officer’s Certificate stating the identity of the released Guarantor, the basis for release in reasonable detail, and that such release complies with this Indenture. At the written request of the Company, and upon delivery to the Trustee of an
Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, which may be subject to customary exceptions and qualifications, each stating that all conditions provided for in this Indenture to the release of such Guarantor have been complied with, the
Trustee shall execute and deliver any documents reasonably required in order to evidence such release, discharge and termination in respect of the applicable Guarantee (it being understood that the failure to obtain any such instrument shall not
impair any automatic release pursuant to Section 10.06(a)). 
 ARTICLE 11 

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE 
 Section 11.01
Satisfaction and Discharge. 
 (a) This Indenture will be discharged, and will cease to be of further effect as to all Notes issued
hereunder, when either: 
 (1) all Notes that have been authenticated and delivered (except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes
that have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has been deposited in trust) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 

(2) (A) all Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the
giving of a notice of redemption or otherwise, will become due and payable within one year or are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the
name, and at the expense, of the Company, and the Company or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee, as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the holders, cash in U.S. dollars, Government
Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire Debt on the Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for
principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption, as the case may be; 
 (B) no Default
or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit or will occur as a result of such deposit (other than a Default or an Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to make such deposit and any
similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Debt and, in each case, the granting of Liens in connection therewith); 

(C) the Company or any Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by the Company under this Indenture; and 

(D) the Company has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the
Notes at maturity or the redemption date, as the case may be. 

  
 -51-

Opinion of Counsel (which Opinion of Counsel may be subject to customary assumptions and exclusions) each stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied. Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture, the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the Company’s and Guarantors’ obligations in connection therewith shall survive, and if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to
Section 11.01(a)(2)(A), the provisions of Section 11.02 and Section 8.06 shall survive. 
 Section 11.02 Application of Trust
Money. 
 (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 11.01 shall
be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine,
to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 

(b) If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with Section 11.01 by reason of
any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company’s and any Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture, the
Notes and the Guarantees shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 11.01; provided that if the Company has made any payment of principal or interest on any Notes because of the reinstatement of
its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or Government Securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent, as the case may be.

Legend, and are accompanied by a certification from the transferor in the form provided on the reverse side of the Form of Note in Exhibit A for exchange or registration of transfers and, as applicable, delivery of such legal opinions,
certifications and other information as may be requested pursuant thereto. 
 (b) Restrictions on Transfer of a Definitive Note
for a Beneficial Interest in a Global Note. A Definitive Note may not be exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Global Note except upon satisfaction of the requirements set forth below. Upon receipt by the Trustee of a Definitive Note, duly
endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar, together with: 

(i) a certification from the transferor in the form provided on the reverse side of the Form of Note in Exhibit A for
exchange or registration of transfers and, as applicable, delivery of such legal opinions, certifications and other information as may be requested pursuant thereto; and

increase,

outstanding, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate, upon an Authentication Order, a new applicable Global Note in the appropriate principal amount. 

(c) Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes. 

(i) The transfer and exchange of Global Notes or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the Depositary, in
accordance with the Indenture (including applicable restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 2.2(d) of this Appendix A, if any) and the procedures of the Depositary therefor. A transferor of a beneficial interest in a Global Note shall
deliver to the Registrar a written order given in accordance with the Depositary’s procedures containing information regarding the participant account of the Depositary to be credited with a beneficial interest in such Global Note, or another
Global Note and such account shall be credited in accordance with such order with a beneficial interest in the applicable Global Note and the account of the Person making the transfer shall be debited by an amount equal to the beneficial interest in
the Global Note being transferred. 
 (ii) If the proposed transfer is a transfer of a beneficial interest in one Global Note
to a beneficial interest in another Global Note, the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of the Global Note to which such interest is being transferred in an amount equal to the principal
amount of the interest to be so transferred, and the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and a corresponding decrease in the principal amount of the Global Note from which such interest is being transferred. 

(iii) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Appendix A (other than the provisions set forth in Section 2.3 of this
Appendix A), a Global Note may not be transferred except as a whole and not in part if the transfer is by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by
the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. 
 (d) Restrictions on Transfer of
Global Notes; Voluntary Exchange of Interests in Transfer Restricted Global Notes for Interests in Unrestricted Global Notes.

 4 

 
transferor in the form provided on the reverse side of the Form of Note in Exhibit A for exchange or registration of transfers and, as applicable, delivery of such legal opinions,
certifications and other information as may be requested pursuant thereto. In addition, in the case of a transfer of a beneficial interest in either a Regulation S Global Note or a Rule 144A Global Note for an interest in an IAI Global
Note, the transferee must furnish a signed letter substantially in the form of Exhibit B to the Trustee.

transferee who takes delivery of such interest through a Rule 144A Global Note or an IAI Global Note shall be made only in accordance with the Applicable Procedures and the Restricted Notes Legend and upon receipt by the Trustee of a written
certification from the transferor of the beneficial interest in the form provided on the reverse side of the Form of Note in Exhibit A for exchange or registration of transfers. Such written certification shall no longer be required
after the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period. Upon the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, beneficial ownership interests in the Regulation S Global Note shall be transferable in accordance with applicable law and the
other terms of the Indenture. 
 (iii) Upon the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, beneficial interests in the
Regulation S Global Note may be exchanged for beneficial interests in an Unrestricted Global Note pursuant to Applicable Procedures or upon certification in the form provided on the reverse side of the Form of Note in Exhibit A for
an exchange from a Regulation S Global Note to an Unrestricted Global Note. 
 (iv) Beneficial interests in a Transfer
Restricted Note that is a Rule 144A Global Note or an IAI Global Note may be exchanged for beneficial interests in an Unrestricted Global Note if the holder certifies in writing to the Registrar that its request for such exchange is in respect of a
transfer made in reliance on Rule 144 (such certification to be in the form set forth on the reverse side of the Form of Note in Exhibit A) and/or upon delivery of such legal opinions, certifications and other information as the Company or
the Trustee may reasonably request. 
 (v) If no Unrestricted Global Note is outstanding at the time of a transfer
contemplated by the preceding clauses (iii) and (iv), the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate, upon an Authentication Order, a new Unrestricted Global Note in the appropriate principal amount.

as Custodian pursuant to Section 2.1 or issued in connection with an Exchange Offer may be transferred to the beneficial owners thereof in the form of Definitive Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such

part of a Global Note may have such Affiliate’s beneficial interest transferred to such Affiliate in the form of a Definitive Note by providing a written request to the Company and the Trustee and such Opinions of Counsel, certificates or other
information as may be required by this Indenture or the Company or Trustee.

Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated. 

1. INTEREST. IHS INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of
this Note at 5.000% per annum until but excluding maturity. The Company shall pay interest semi-annually in arrears on May 1 and November 1 of each year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”). If any such day is not a
Business Day, interest shall be payable on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect and no interest shall accrue for the intervening period. Interest on the Notes shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has
been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from and including October 28, 2014; provided that the first Interest Payment Date shall be May 1, 2015. The Company shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding
under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at the interest rate on the Notes to the extent lawful; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy
Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at the interest rate on the Notes to the extent lawful. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of
twelve 30-day months. 
 2. METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Company shall pay interest on the Notes to the Persons who are registered
holders of Notes at the close of business on the April 15 or November 15 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, immediately preceding the related Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture
with respect to defaulted interest. Principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes shall be payable at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest and premium, if any,
may be made by check mailed to the holders at their respective addresses set forth in the Note Register; provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds shall be required with respect to principal, premium, if any, and
interest on all Global Notes and all other Notes the holders of which shall have provided wire transfer instructions to the Company or the Paying Agent at least five Business Days prior to the applicable payment date. Such payment shall be in such
coin or currency of the United States as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. 
 3. PAYING

or supplemented from time to time, the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Guarantors named therein and the Trustee. This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of notes of the Company designated as its 5.000% Senior Notes due

6. DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of
$1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer
documents, and holders shall be required to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption or tendered for
repurchase in connection with a Change of Control Offer, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed or repurchased in part.

 The undersigned represents and warrants to you that: 

1. We are an institutional “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)), purchasing for our own account or for the account of such an institutional “accredited investor” at least $250,000 principal amount of the Notes, and we are
acquiring the Notes, for investment purposes and not with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution in violation of the Securities Act. We have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be
capable of evaluating the merits and risks of our investment in the Notes, and we invest in or purchase securities similar to the Notes in the normal course of our business. We, and any accounts for which we are acting, are each able to bear the
economic risk of our or its investment. 
 2. We understand that the Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act
and, unless so registered, may not be sold except as permitted in the following sentence. We agree on our own behalf and on behalf of any investor account for which we are purchasing Notes to offer, sell or otherwise transfer such Notes prior to the
date that is one year after the later of the date of original issue and the last date on which the Company or any affiliate of the Company was the owner of such Notes (or any predecessor thereto) (the “Resale Restriction Termination
Date”) only in accordance with the Restricted Notes Legend (as such term is defined in the indenture under which the Notes were issued) on the Notes 

  
 B-1 

 
and any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States. The foregoing restrictions on resale will not apply subsequent to the Resale Restriction Termination Date. If any resale or
other transfer of the Notes is proposed to be made pursuant to clause (e) above prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date, the transferor shall deliver a letter from the transferee substantially in the form of this letter to the Company
and the Trustee, which shall provide, among other things, that the transferee is an institutional “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act and that it is acquiring
such Notes for investment purposes and not for distribution in violation of the Securities Act. Each purchaser acknowledges that the Company and the Trustee reserve the right prior to the offer, sale or other transfer prior to the Resale Restriction
Termination Date of the Notes with respect to applicable transfers described in the Restricted Notes Legend to require the delivery of an opinion of counsel, certifications and/or other information satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee.
