	 -17-

consolidations and discontinued operations (and the change in any associated fixed charge obligations and the change in EBITDA resulting therefrom) had occurred on the first day of the four-quarter reference period. If since the beginning of such
period any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged with or into the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries since the beginning of such period shall have made any Investment, acquisition, disposition, Division,
merger, amalgamation, consolidation or discontinued operation that would have required adjustment pursuant to this definition, then the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect thereto for such period as if

reductions resulting from such Investment, acquisition, disposition, Division, merger, amalgamation or consolidation which is being given pro forma effect that have been or are expected to be realized based on actions taken, committed to be
taken or expected in good faith to be taken within 18 months). If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the
Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Calculation Date had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Hedging Obligations applicable to such Indebtedness). Interest on a Capitalized Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an
interest rate reasonably determined by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Issuer to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capitalized Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP. For purposes of making the computation referred to
above, interest on any Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility computed on a pro forma basis shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the applicable period except as set forth in the first
paragraph of this definition. Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a eurocurrency interbank offered rate, or other rate, shall be deemed to have been based
upon the rate actually chosen, or, if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as the Issuer may designate.

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 are
delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. 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 hereof) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Issuer, 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 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. 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 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 or the Issuer in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note.
  

(e) The Issuer may set a record date for purposes of determining the identity of Holders entitled to give any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or take any
other act, or to vote or consent to any action by vote or consent authorized or permitted to be given or taken by Holders. Unless otherwise specified, if not set by the Issuer 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 10 days prior to the first solicitation of such consent or, if the Trustee is not then also the Registrar, the date of the most
recent list of Holders furnished to the Trustee prior to such solicitation.
  
 (f) 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 Section 1.05(f) shall have the same effect as if
given or taken by separate Holders of each such different part.
  
 (g) Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, a Holder, including DTC, that is a 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 any Person, that is a Holder of a Global Note, including DTC, 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.
  
 (h) The Issuer may fix a record date for the purpose of determining
the Persons who are beneficial owners of interests in any Global Note held by DTC entitled under the procedures of such Depositary to make, give or take, by a proxy or proxies duly appointed in writing, any request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent,
   
 
	 
	-41-
	  

	 

  
 waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to be made, given or taken by Holders. If such a
record date is fixed, the Holders on such record date or their duly appointed proxy or proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled to make, give or take such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action,
whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date. No such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action shall be valid or effective if made, given or taken more than 120 days after such record
date.
  
 Section 1.06. Timing of Payment. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
if the date on which any payment is to be made pursuant to this Indenture or the Notes is not a Business Day, the payment otherwise payable on such date shall be payable on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made
on such scheduled date and (provided such payment is made on such succeeding Business Day) no interest shall accrue on the amount of such payment from and after such scheduled date to the time of such payment on such next succeeding Business Day and
the amount of any such payment that is an interest payment will reflect accrual only through the original payment date and not through the next succeeding Business Day.
  

Section 1.07. Financial Calculations for Specified Transactions. For purposes of calculating the availability under any basket, ratio or any financial metric under
this Indenture or compliance with any provision of this Indenture (including the absence of Defaults or Events of Default), in each case in connection with (a) any Limited Condition Transaction, (b) any incurrence or issuance of or repayment,
redemption, repurchase or refinancing of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock and the use of proceeds thereof, (c) the creation of Liens, (d) the making of any Asset Sale or any disposition excluded from the definition of
“Asset Sale”, (e) the making of an Investment (including any acquisition) or Restricted Payments, (f) the designation of a Subsidiary as restricted or unrestricted, (g) any other transaction or plan undertaken or
proposed to be undertaken in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction or any transaction set forth in clauses (b) through (f) or (h) any other purpose under this Indenture (the transactions referred to in clauses (a) through (h),
collectively, the “Specified Transactions,” and each, a “Specified Transaction”) and any actions or transactions related thereto, the date of determination of such basket, ratio or financial
metric or whether any such Specified Transaction is permitted (or any requirement or condition therefor is complied with or satisfied (including as to the absence of any Default or Event of Default)) may, at the option of the Issuer, any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries, a direct or indirect parent entity of the Issuer, any successor entity of any of the foregoing (including a third party) (the “Testing Party”) (which election may be made on or prior to the date
of consummation of such Specified Transaction), be the date the definitive agreements for such Specified Transaction are entered into (or, if applicable, the date of delivery of a binding offer or launch of a “certain funds” tender
offer), the date of declaration of a Restricted Payment or similar event, the date of the announcement of such Specified Transaction, or the date that a notice, which may be conditional, of repayment or redemption in connection with a repayment,
redemption, repurchase or refinancing of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is given to the holders of such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock or the date that an Officer’s Certificate is given with respect to
the designation of a Subsidiary as restricted or unrestricted (any such date, the “Transaction Test Date”) and such baskets, ratios or financial metrics shall be calculated with such pro forma adjustments as are
appropriate and consistent with the pro forma adjustment provisions set forth in the definitions of Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Total Debt Ratio and Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio after giving effect to such Specified Transactions and
any actions or transactions related thereto (including acquisitions, Investments, the incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock and the use of proceeds thereof, the incurrence of Liens, repayments, Restricted
Payments and Asset Sales) as if they occurred at the beginning of the applicable measurement period for purposes of determining the ability to consummate any such Specified Transaction, and, for the avoidance of doubt, (x) if any of such baskets,
ratios or financial metrics are exceeded or are not complied with as a result of fluctuations in such basket, ratio or related financial metrics (including due to fluctuations in Fixed Charges, Consolidated Net Income or EBITDA of the Issuer, the
target company or the Person that is otherwise the subject of the Specified Transaction after the applicable Transaction Test Date) at or prior to the consummation of the relevant Specified Transaction and any actions or transactions related
thereto, such baskets, ratios or financial metrics will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations and (y) such baskets, ratios or financial metrics shall not be tested at the time of consummation of such Specified
Transaction and any actions or transactions related thereto except as contemplated in clause (a) of the immediately succeeding proviso; provided, however, that (a) if financial statements for one or more subsequent fiscal quarters shall
have become available, the Testing Party may elect, in its sole discretion, to re-determine all such ratios, tests, baskets or financial metrics on the basis of such financial statements, in which case such date of redetermination shall
thereafter
  
	 
	-42-
	  

	 

  
 be deemed to be the applicable Transaction Test Date for purposes of such ratios, tests, baskets or financial metrics,
(b) if any ratios or financial metrics improve or baskets increase as a result of such fluctuations, such improved ratios, financial metrics or baskets may be utilized, (c) if the Testing Party elects to have such determinations occur on the
Transaction Test Date, any such transactions (including the Specified Transaction and any actions or transactions related thereto) shall be deemed to have occurred on the Transaction Test Date and to be outstanding thereafter for purposes of
calculating any baskets, ratios or financial metrics under this Indenture after the Transaction Test Date and before the consummation of such Specified Transaction unless and until such Specified Transaction has been abandoned, as determined by the
Testing Party, prior to the consummation thereof and (d) Consolidated Interest Expense for purposes of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio will be calculated using an assumed interest rate based on the indicative interest margin, as reasonably
determined by the Testing Party in good faith. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Testing Party has exercised its option pursuant to the foregoing and any Default or Event of Default occurs in connection with the applicable Specified Transaction
following the Transaction Test Date (including any new Transaction Test Date) for the applicable Specified Transaction and prior to or on the date of the consummation of such Specified Transaction, any such Default or Event of Default shall be
deemed to not have occurred or be continuing for purposes of determining whether any action that has been taken or that is being taken in connection with such Specified Transaction was or is permitted under this Indenture. 

 
 Section 1.08. Certain Compliance Calculations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this Indenture, in the event an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) is incurred or issued, any Lien is incurred or other transaction is undertaken in reliance on a ratio basket based on the Fixed
Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio or Consolidated Total Debt Ratio, such ratio(s) shall be calculated with respect to such incurrence, issuance or other transaction without giving effect to amounts being utilized under any other
basket (other than a ratio basket based on the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio or Consolidated Total Debt Ratio) on the same date. Each item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock that is incurred or
issued, each Lien incurred and each other transaction undertaken will be deemed to have been incurred, issued or taken first, to the extent available, pursuant to the relevant Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio or
Consolidated Total Debt Ratio test. 
 
ARTICLE 2

Section 2.01. Form and Dating; Terms.
  

(a) General. The Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1 or Exhibit A-2 hereto, as applicable. The Notes may
have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rules or usage. Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. The Notes shall be issued in minimum denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in
excess of $2,000.
  
 (b) Global Notes. Notes issued in global form shall be substantially in the form of
Exhibit A-1 hereto, in the case of the 2025 Notes, and Exhibit A-2 hereto, in the case of the 2028 Notes, in each case including the Global Note Legend thereon and the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached
thereto. Notes issued in definitive form shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1 hereto, in the case of the 2025 Notes, and Exhibit A-2 hereto, in the case of the 2028 Notes, but in each case without the Global Note Legend thereon and
without the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto. Each Global Note shall represent such of the outstanding Notes as shall be specified in the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global
Note” attached thereto and each shall provide that it shall represent up to the aggregate principal amount of Notes of the applicable series from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes of the
applicable series represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as applicable, to reflect exchanges and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal
amount of outstanding Notes of the applicable series represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee or the Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.06
hereof.
  
	 
	-43-
	  

	 

  
 (c) Temporary Global Notes. Notes of a series offered and sold in
reliance on Regulation S shall be issued initially in the form of a Regulation S Temporary Global Note, which shall be deposited on behalf of the purchasers of the Notes of such series represented thereby with the Custodian and registered in the
name of the Depositary or the nominee of the Depositary for the accounts of designated agents holding on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream, duly executed by the Issuer and authenticated by the Trustee as hereinafter provided.

 
 Following (i) the termination of the applicable Restricted Period and (ii) the receipt by the Trustee of (A) a
certification or other evidence in a form reasonably acceptable to the Issuer together with copies of certificates from Euroclear and Clearstream certifying that they have received certifications of non-United States beneficial ownership of 100% of
the aggregate principal amount of the Regulation S Temporary Global Note for a series, to the extent the Depositary, Euroclear and Clearstream provide such certificates in the ordinary course of their business (except to the extent of any beneficial
owners thereof who acquired an interest therein during the Restricted Period pursuant to another exemption from registration under the Securities Act and who shall take delivery of a beneficial ownership interest in a 144A Global Note bearing the
Private Placement Legend, all as contemplated by Section 2.06(b) hereof) and (B) an Officer’s Certificate from the Issuer, the Trustee shall remove the Regulation S Temporary Global Note Legend from the Regulation S Temporary Global Note for
such series, following which temporary beneficial interests in the Regulation S Temporary Global Note for such series shall automatically become beneficial interests in the Regulation S Permanent Global Note for such series pursuant to the
Applicable Procedures.
  
 The aggregate principal amount of a Regulation S Temporary Global Note for a series and a
Regulation S Permanent Global Note for such series may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee and the Depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, in connection with transfers of interest as
hereinafter provided.
  
 (d) Terms. The aggregate principal amount of Notes of a series that may be
authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is unlimited.
  
 The terms and provisions contained in the Notes of
each series shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture and the Issuer, the Guarantors from time to time party hereto 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 Issuer pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer as provided in Section 4.10
hereof or a Change of Control Offer as provided in Section 4.14 hereof. The Notes shall not be redeemable, other than as provided in Article 3 hereof.
  

Subject to compliance with Section 4.09 hereof, the Issuer may issue Additional Notes of any series from time to time ranking pari passu with the Initial Notes of such series
without notice to or consent of the Holders, and such Additional Notes shall be consolidated with and form a single class with the Initial Notes of such series and shall have the same terms as to status, redemption or otherwise as the Initial Notes
of such series, except that interest may accrue on the Additional Notes from their date of issuance (or such other date specified by the Issuer); provided that if any Additional Notes of a series are not fungible with the Initial Notes of
such series for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such Additional Notes will have a separate CUSIP or ISIN number, as applicable, from the Initial Notes of such series. Any Additional Notes may be issued with the benefit of an indenture supplemental
to this Indenture. 
  
 (e) Euroclear and Clearstream Applicable Procedures. The provisions of the
“Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System” and “Terms and Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear” and the “General Terms and Conditions of Clearstream Banking” and “Customer Handbook” of Clearstream
shall be applicable to transfers of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Temporary Global Note and the Regulation S Permanent Global Notes that are held by Participants through Euroclear or Clearstream.

 
 Section 2.02. Execution and Authentication. At least one Officer of the Issuer shall execute
the Notes on behalf of the Issuer, by manual, facsimile or electronic (including “.pdf”) signature.
  
	 
	-44-
	  

	 

  
 If an Officer of the Issuer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that
office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note, the Note shall nevertheless be valid.
  
 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-1 or Exhibit A-2 hereto, as applicable, by the manual signature of the Trustee. The signature shall be
conclusive evidence that the Note has been duly authenticated and delivered under this Indenture.
  
 On the Issue
Date, the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Issuer’s Order (an “Authentication Order”), authenticate and deliver the 2025 Initial Notes and the 2028 Initial Notes in the aggregate principal amounts specified in
such Authentication Order. In addition, at any time, from time to time, the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate and deliver any Additional Notes of a series for an aggregate principal amount specified in such
Authentication Order for such Additional Notes issued or increased hereunder.
  
 The Trustee may appoint an
authenticating agent acceptable to the Issuer 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 or an Affiliate of the Issuer.
  

Section 2.03. Registrar, Transfer Agent and Paying Agent. The Issuer shall maintain (i) an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration (the
“Registrar”), which shall be Wilmington Trust, National Association as of the date of this Indenture, (ii) an office or agency where the Notes may be presented for transfer or for exchange (the “Transfer
Agent”), which shall be Wilmington Trust, National Association as of the date of this Indenture and (iii) an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (the “Paying Agent”), which shall be
Wilmington Trust, National Association as of the date of this Indenture. The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes (“Note Register”) and of their transfer and exchange. The registered Holder of a Note will be
treated as the owner of such Note for all purposes and only registered Holders shall have rights under this Indenture and the Notes. The Issuer may appoint one or more co-registrars, one or more co-transfer agents and one or more additional paying
agents. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar, the term “Transfer Agent” includes any co-transfer agent and the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agents. The
Issuer may change any Paying Agent, Transfer Agent or Registrar without prior notice to any Holder. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Issuer fails to appoint or
maintain another entity as Registrar, Transfer Agent or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Issuer or any of the Issuer’s Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent, Transfer Agent or Registrar upon written notice to the Trustee.

 
 The Issuer initially appoints The Depository Trust Company, its nominees and successors
(“DTC”) to act as Depositary with respect to the Global Notes.
  
 The Issuer initially
appoints the Trustee to act as the Paying Agent, Transfer Agent and Registrar for the Notes and to act as Custodian with respect to the Global Notes.
  

If any Notes of a series are listed on an exchange and the rules of such exchange so require, the Issuer will satisfy any requirement of such exchange as to paying agents, registrars and
transfer agents and will comply with any notice requirements required under such exchange in connection with any change of paying agent, registrar or transfer agent.
  

Section 2.04. Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. The Issuer shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent
shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, on the Notes of a series and will notify the Trustee in writing of any default by the Issuer
in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to
pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Issuer or a Subsidiary or the Trustee) shall have no further liability for the money. If the Issuer or a Subsidiary of the Issuer 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
  

	 
	-45-
	  

	 

  
  any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Issuer, 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 of Notes of each series. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee at least two Business Days before each

(ii) No service charge shall be made to a holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note or to a Holder of a Definitive Note for any registration of transfer or exchange, but
the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover 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 2.07, 2.10, 3.06, 3.08, 4.10, 4.14 and 9.05 hereof).

 (iv) Neither the
Registrar nor the Issuer shall be required to register the transfer or exchange of any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part; provided that new Notes will only be
issued in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess of $2,000.
  
 (v)
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 Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this
Indenture, as the Global Notes or Definitive Notes for the same series surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.
  

(vi) Prior to due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any Note, the Trustee, any Agent and the Issuer shall 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 of (and premium, if any) and interest on such Notes and for all other purposes, and none of the Trustee, any Agent or the Issuer shall be affected by
notice to the contrary.
  
 (vii) Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the office or
agency of the Issuer designated pursuant to Section 4.02 hereof, the Issuer 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.
  
 (viii) At the option of the
Holder, subject to Section 2.06(a) hereof, 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 Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and mail, the replacement Global Notes and Definitive Notes for the same series which the Holder making the exchange is
entitled to in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02 hereof.
  
 (ix) All certifications,
certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to be submitted 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.

 
 (x) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, neither the Trustee nor
the Registrar shall be responsible for ascertaining whether any transfer complies with the registration provisions of or exemptions from the Securities Act, applicable state securities laws, ERISA (or, in the case of a governmental plan or a church

  
 
	 
	-55-
	  

	 

  
 plan (as described in ERISA Sections 3(32) and 3(33), respectively) any substantially
similar federal, state or local law), the Code or the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended; provided that if a certificate is specifically required by the express terms of this Section 2.06 to be delivered to the Trustee by a
purchaser or transferee of a Note, the Trustee shall be under a duty to receive and examine the same to determine whether on its face it conforms to the express terms of this Indenture and shall promptly notify the party delivering the same if such
certificate does not comply with such terms.
  
 Section 2.07. Replacement Notes. If either (x) any mutilated
Note is surrendered to the Trustee, the Registrar or the Issuer, or (y) the Issuer and the Trustee receive evidence to their satisfaction of the ownership and destruction, loss or theft of any Note, then the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee, upon
receipt of an Authentication Order and satisfaction of any other requirements of the Trustee, shall authenticate a replacement Note. If required by the Trustee or the Issuer, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the
judgment of both (i) the Trustee to protect the Trustee and (ii) the Issuer to protect the Issuer, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuer and the Trustee may
charge the Holder for their expenses in replacing a Note.
  
 Every replacement Note is a contractual obligation of the
Issuer and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes of the same series duly issued hereunder.
  

Section 2.08. Outstanding Notes. The Notes of a series outstanding at any time are all the Notes of such series authenticated by the Trustee except for those
cancelled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note of such series 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 hereof, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or a Guarantor or an Affiliate of the Issuer or a Guarantor holds the Note.
  

If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a
protected purchaser (as defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code).
  
 Notes in exchange for or in lieu of
which other Notes have been authenticated and delivered pursuant to this Indenture shall not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes hereof.
  

If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01 hereof, such Note shall cease to be outstanding and interest thereon shall cease to accrue.

 
 If the Paying Agent (other than the Issuer or a Guarantor or an Affiliate of the Issuer or a Guarantor) holds, on a
Redemption Date or maturity date, money sufficient to pay Notes (or portions thereof) payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes (or portions thereof) shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding (including for accounting purposes)
and shall cease to accrue interest on and after such date.
  
 Section 2.09. Treasury Notes. In determining
whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes of a series have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes of such series owned by the Issuer or by any Affiliate of the Issuer, 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 of such series that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually 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 such
pledged Notes and that the pledgee is not the Issuer or a Guarantor or any Affiliate of the Issuer or a Guarantor. 
  

Section 2.10. Temporary Notes. Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an
Authentication Order, shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Notes. Without unreasonable delay, the
Issuer shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Notes of a series in exchange for temporary Notes of the same series.
  
	 
	-56-
	  

	 

  
 Holders and beneficial holders, as the case may be, of temporary Notes of a series
shall be entitled to all of the benefits accorded to Holders, or beneficial holders, respectively, of Notes of the same series under this Indenture.
  

Section 2.11. Cancellation. The Issuer 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 such cancelled Notes in its customary manner (subject to the record retention requirements of the Exchange Act). Certification of the cancellation of all cancelled Notes shall be
delivered to the Issuer upon its written request therefor. The Issuer may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that they have paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

 
 Section 2.12. Defaulted Interest. If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest on the
Notes of a series, they 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 of such series and in Section 4.01 hereof. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note of such series and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same
time the Issuer 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 Issuer shall fix or cause to be fixed any 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 Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee of any such special record date. At least 10 days
before any such special record date, the Issuer (or, upon the written request of the Issuer, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuer) shall mail or cause to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, or otherwise deliver in accordance
with the Applicable Procedures, to each Holder of Notes of such series, with a copy to the Trustee, a notice at his or her address as it appears in the Note Register for such series that states the special record date, the related payment date and
the amount of such interest to be paid.
  
 Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.12 and for greater
certainty, each Note of a series delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note for the same series shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were
carried by such other Note of such series.
  
 Section 2.13. CUSIP Numbers; ISINs. The
Issuer in issuing the Notes may use CUSIP numbers and ISINs (in each case, if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee shall use CUSIP numbers and ISINs in notices of redemption or exchange 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 of redemption or exchange and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification
numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Issuer will as promptly as practicable notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the CUSIP numbers or ISINs. 

 
ARTICLE 3
REDEMPTION
  
 Section 3.01. Notices to
Trustee. If the Issuer elects to redeem Notes of a series pursuant to Section 3.07 hereof, it shall furnish to the Trustee, at least two Business Days (unless a shorter notice shall be agreed to by the Trustee) before notice of redemption is
required to be delivered or mailed to Holders pursuant to Section 3.03 hereof, an Officer’s Certificate setting forth (a) the paragraph or subparagraph of such Note and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the redemption shall occur,
(b) the date of redemption (as such date may be delayed pursuant to Section 3.07(f), the “Redemption Date”), (c) the principal amount of the Notes and the series of Notes to be redeemed and (d) the redemption price.

 
	 
	-57-
	  

	 

  
 Section 3.02. Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed. If less
than all of the Notes of a series are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee shall select the Notes of such series to be redeemed (a) if the Notes of such series are listed on a securities exchange (and such listing is known to the Trustee), in
compliance with the requirements of such exchange on which the Notes of such series are listed or (b) on a pro rata basis to the extent practicable, or, if the pro rata basis is not practicable for any reason, by lot or by such other method as the
Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and otherwise in accordance with the Applicable Procedures in minimum denominations of $2,000 and increments of $1,000 in excess thereof. In the event of partial redemption by lot, the particular Notes of such
series to be redeemed shall be selected, unless otherwise provided herein, not less than 10 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee from the outstanding Notes of such series not previously called for redemption.

 
 The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer in writing of the Notes of a series selected for redemption and, in the case of
any Note of such series selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Notes and portions of Notes selected shall be in integral multiples of $1,000 (but in a minimum amount of $2,000) and no Notes of $2,000 or less
can be redeemed in part, except that if all of the applicable Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed, the entire outstanding amount of Notes of such series held by such Holder shall be redeemed, even if not in a principal amount of at least $2,000.
Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption. For the avoidance of doubt, the Issuer may elect, at its sole discretion, to
redeem only 2025 Notes, only 2028 Notes, or any combination thereof.
  
 Section 3.03. Notice of Redemption. Subject to Section
3.08 hereof, the Issuer shall send electronically, mail or cause to be mailed by first-class mail, postage prepaid, notices of redemption at least 10 days but (except as set forth in Section 3.07(f)) not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date
to each Holder of Notes of a series to be redeemed at such Holder’s registered address stated in the Note Register or otherwise in accordance with the Applicable Procedures, except that redemption notices may be delivered or mailed more than
60 days prior to a Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with Article 8 or Article 11 hereof. Notices of redemption may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be conditional.
  

The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed and the applicable series and shall state:
  

(a) the Redemption Date;
  

(b) the redemption price;
  

(c) if any Definitive Note is to be redeemed in part only, the portion of the principal amount of that Note that is to be redeemed and that, after the Redemption Date upon
surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original Note representing the same indebtedness to the extent not redeemed will be issued in the name of the Holder upon cancellation of the
original Note; provided that new Notes will only be issued in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess of $2,000;
  

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

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

 
 (f) that, unless the Issuer defaults in making such redemption payment, interest on Notes
called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the Redemption Date;
  
 (g) the
paragraph or subparagraph of the Notes and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed;
  

(h) the CUSIP number and ISIN, if any, printed on the Notes being redeemed and that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of any such CUSIP number and
ISIN that is listed in such notice or printed on the Notes; and
  
	 
	-58-
	  

	 

  
 (i) any conditions to such redemption.

 
 In addition, any notice of redemption may include additional information, including any information pursuant to Section
3.07(f) hereof. 
  
 At the Issuer’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Issuer’s
name and at its expense; provided that the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least two Business Days before notice of redemption is required to be delivered electronically, mailed or caused to be mailed 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 information to be stated in such notice as provided in the preceding
paragraph.
  
 If the Notes of a series are listed on an exchange, for so long as such Notes are so listed and the rules of
such exchange so require, the Issuer shall notify the exchange of any such redemption and, if applicable, of the principal amount of any Notes of such series outstanding following any partial redemption of the Notes of such series.

 
 Section 3.04. Effect of Notice of Redemption. A notice of redemption, if delivered electronically, mailed or
caused to be mailed 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 deliver 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 of the same series. Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption shall become due and payable on the Redemption
Date, subject to satisfaction of any conditions specified in the notice. Subject to Section 3.05 hereof, on and after the Redemption Date, interest shall cease to accrue on Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption.

 
 Section 3.05. Deposit of Redemption Price

 
 (a) Prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Redemption Date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee or with
the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued and unpaid interest on all Notes to be redeemed on that Redemption Date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Issuer any money deposited with the
Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Issuer in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption price of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, all Notes to be redeemed.
  

(b) If the Issuer complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph (a), on and after the Redemption Date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called
for redemption. If a Note is redeemed on or after an applicable Record Date but on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, then any accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was
registered at the close of business on such Record Date. If any Note called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender for redemption because of the failure of the Issuer to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the
unpaid principal, from the Redemption Date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest accrued to the Redemption Date not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01
hereof.
  
 Section 3.06. Notes Redeemed in Part. Upon surrender of a Definitive Note of a
series that is redeemed in part, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder, at the expense of the Issuer, a new Note for the same series equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Note surrendered
representing the same indebtedness to the extent not redeemed; provided that each new Note will be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess of $2,000. It is understood that, notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Indenture, 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) Except as set forth in clauses (b), (c), (f), (g) and (h) of this Section 3.07, as applicable, the 2025 Notes will
not be redeemable at the Issuer’s option prior to May 1, 2022 and the 2028 Notes will not be redeemable at the Issuer’s option prior to May 1, 2023.

	-60-
	  

	 

  
 (g) On or prior to May 1, 2023, the Issuer may, at its option and on one or more
occasions, redeem up to 40.0% of the aggregate principal amount of 2028 Notes issued under this Indenture at a redemption price equal to 105.750% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2028 Notes redeemed, with an amount not to exceed the net cash

 (h) In connection with any tender offer for the Notes of a series, including without limitation any Change of Control
Offer or Alternate Offer, if Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes of such series validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in such tender offer and the Issuer, or any third party making such tender
offer in lieu of the Issuer, purchases all of the Notes of such series validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Issuer or such third party will have the right upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not
more than 30 days following such purchase date, to redeem all Notes of such series that remain outstanding following such purchase at a price equal to the price offered to each other Holder in such tender offer (which may be less than par and shall
exclude any early tender premium or similar premium and any accrued and unpaid interest to any Holder in such tender offer payment) plus, to the extent not included in the tender offer payment, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon, to, but

 (i) Any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall be made pursuant to the
provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06 hereof. Notice of any redemption, whether in connection with an Equity Offering, other transaction or otherwise, may be given prior to the completion thereof, and any such redemption or notice may, at the
Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of the related Equity Offering or other transaction. The Issuer may redeem the Notes of a series pursuant to one or more of the
relevant provisions in this Section 3.07, and a single notice of redemption may be delivered with respect to redemptions made pursuant to different provisions. Any such notice may provide that redemptions made pursuant to different provisions will
have different Redemption Dates and, with respect to redemptions that occur on the same date, may specify the order in which such redemptions are deemed to occur. In addition, if such redemption is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions
precedent, such notice shall state that, in the Issuer’s discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the
event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date so delayed. For the avoidance of doubt, if any Redemption Date shall be delayed pursuant to this Section 3.07(f) and the terms of
the applicable notice of redemption, such Redemption Date as so delayed may occur at any time after the original Redemption Date set forth in the applicable notice of redemption and after the satisfaction of any applicable conditions precedent,
including, without limitation, on a date that is more than 60 days after the date of the applicable notice of redemption. In addition, the Issuer may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and performance of the Issuer’s
obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person. The Issuer and its Affiliates may acquire the Notes of any series by means other than a redemption pursuant to this Section 3.07, whether by tender offer, open market
purchases, negotiated transactions or otherwise.
  
 (j) The Trustee shall have no duty to calculate or verify the
calculation of the Applicable Premium.
  
 Section 3.08. Offers to Repurchase by Application of
Excess Proceeds.
  
 (a) In the event that, pursuant to Section 4.10 hereof, the Issuer shall be required to
commence an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer shall follow the procedures specified below.
  
 (b) The Asset Sale Offer
shall remain open for a period of 20 Business Days following its commencement and no longer, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Offer Period”). No 

 
 
	 
	-61-
	  

	 

  
 later than five Business Days after the termination of the Offer Period (the “Purchase
Date”), the Issuer shall apply all Excess Proceeds (the “Offer Amount”) to the purchase of Notes of each series and, if required, Pari Passu Indebtedness (on a pro rata basis, if applicable, with
adjustments as necessary so that no Notes or Pari Passu Indebtedness will be repurchased in part in an unauthorized denomination), or, if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes of each series and Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered in
response to the Asset Sale Offer. Payment for any Notes so purchased shall be made in the same manner as interest payments are made.
  

(c) If the Purchase Date is on or after a Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, up to but excluding the Purchase Date,

8-K or any successor or comparable form; 
  
 in each case, in a manner that complies in all material respects with the requirements
specified in such form (except as described above or below and subject to exceptions consistent with the presentation of information included or incorporated by reference in the Offering Memorandum); provided, however, that if at
any time the Issuer shall not be so obligated to file such reports referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above with the SEC or if the SEC does not permit such filing, then the Issuer shall make available such information to the Trustee, the

Issuer’s Unrestricted Subsidiaries would, individually or in the aggregate, constitute a “significant subsidiary” (as such term is defined in Rule 1-02 of Regulation S-X promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act (as such
regulation is in effect on the Issue Date)), then the applicable annual and quarterly financial information required by clauses (a)(i) and (a)(ii) above

conditions of this Indenture (or, if a Default shall have occurred and is continuing, describing all such Defaults of which he or she may have knowledge and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto).

 
 (b) When any Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture, or if the Trustee or the holder of any other
evidence of Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Subsidiary gives any notice or takes any other action with respect to a claimed Default, the Issuer shall promptly (which shall be no more than 20 Business Days after becoming aware of such Default)
deliver to the Trustee by registered or certified mail or by facsimile transmission an Officer’s Certificate specifying such event and what action the Issuer proposes to take with respect thereto.

discharge is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders.
  
 Section 4.06. Stay,
Extension and Usury Laws. The Issuer and each of the Guarantors covenant (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) that they shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any
stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture and the Notes; and the Issuer and each of the Guarantors (to the extent that they may lawfully
do so) hereby expressly waive all benefit or advantage of any such law, and (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) covenant that they shall not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to

(xv)(I) and such payment would have been added back to (or, to the extent excluded from Consolidated

(c) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.07,
  

(i) in the event that a proposed Restricted Payment (or a portion thereof) meets the criteria of clauses (i) through (xvi) of Section 4.07(b) hereof and/or one or more of the
clauses contained in the definition of “Permitted Investments,” or is entitled to be made pursuant to Section 4.07(a), the Issuer will be entitled to divide or classify or later divide or reclassify (based on circumstances

Investments”, in any manner that otherwise complies with this Section 4.07; and
  

(ii) any payment made on or after the 2021 Notes Issue Date, but prior to the Issue Date, shall be deemed to be a “Restricted Payment” to the extent that such
payment would have been a Restricted Payment had this Indenture been in effect at the time of such payment (and, to the extent that such Restricted Payment was permitted by Section 4.07(a), clauses (i) through (xvi) of Section 4.07(b) hereof and/or
one or more of the clauses contained in the definition of “Permitted Investment,” such Restricted Payment may be deemed by the Issuer to have been made pursuant to such clause).

Such designation shall be permitted only if a Restricted Payment in such amount would be permitted at such time, pursuant to this Section 4.07, or pursuant to the definition of “Permitted Investments,” and if such Subsidiary
otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. Unrestricted Subsidiaries shall not be subject to any of the restrictive covenants set forth in this Indenture. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 4.07 shall not restrict the making
of any “AHYDO catch up payment” with respect to, and required by the terms of, any Indebtedness of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries permitted to be incurred under the terms of this Indenture.

 
 Section 4.08. Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries.

 
 (a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is not a Guarantor to, directly
or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or consensual restriction on the ability of any such Restricted Subsidiary to:

Subsidiary, any agreement or other instrument of such Unrestricted Subsidiary in existence at the time of such redesignation (but, in any such case, not created in contemplation thereof) and (B) any agreement or other instrument of a Person acquired
by or merged or consolidated with or into the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in existence at the time of such acquisition or at the time it merges with or into the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or assumed in connection
with the acquisition of assets from such Person (but, in any such case, not created in contemplation thereof), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person so
acquired and its Subsidiaries, or the property or assets of the Person so acquired and its Subsidiaries or the property or assets so acquired;
  

(vi) contracts for the sale of assets, including customary restrictions with respect to a Subsidiary of the Issuer pursuant to an agreement that has been entered into for the
sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the Capital Stock or assets of such Subsidiary;

 (xii) restrictions or conditions contained in any trading, netting, operating, construction, service, supply, purchase, sale or other
agreement to which the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is a party entered into in the ordinary course of business; provided that such agreement prohibits the encumbrance of solely the property or assets of the Issuer or such
Restricted Subsidiary that are the subject to such agreement, the payment rights arising thereunder or the proceeds thereof and does not extend to any other asset or property of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary or the assets or property of
another Restricted Subsidiary;
  
 (xiii) customary provisions restricting subletting or
assignment of any lease governing a leasehold interest of any Restricted Subsidiary; 
  

(xiv) customary provisions restricting assignment of any agreement entered into in the ordinary course of business;

of this Section 4.08(b); provided that such amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are, in the good faith judgment of the Issuer, not materially more restrictive
with respect to such encumbrance and other restrictions taken as a whole than those prior to such amendment, modification, restatement, renewal, increase, supplement, refunding, replacement or refinancing.

 
 Section 4.09. Limitation on Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and
Preferred Stock.
  
 (a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to,
directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise (collectively, “incur” and collectively, an

Disqualified Stock or any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor to issue Preferred Stock; provided that the Issuer may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) or issue shares of Disqualified Stock, and any Restricted
Subsidiary may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness), issue shares of Disqualified Stock and any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor may issue shares of Preferred Stock, if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio on a consolidated

then outstanding aggregate principal amount of all Indebtedness incurred or issued under this clause (i) does not exceed $6,725.0 million;
  

(ii) the incurrence by the Issuer and any Guarantor of Indebtedness represented by the Notes (including any guarantee thereof) but excluding any Additional Notes;

the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries providing for indemnification, adjustment of purchase price, earnouts or similar obligations, in each case, incurred or assumed in connection with the disposition of any business, assets or a Subsidiary,
other than guarantees of Indebtedness incurred by any Person acquiring all or any portion of such business, assets or a Subsidiary for the purpose of financing such acquisition; provided that such Indebtedness is not reflected on the
balance sheet of the Issuer, or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (Contingent Obligations referred to in a footnote to financial statements and not otherwise reflected on the balance sheet shall not be deemed to be reflected on such balance sheet
for purposes of this clause (vi));
  
 (vii) Indebtedness of the Issuer to a Restricted
Subsidiary; provided that any such Indebtedness owing to a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Subsidiary Guarantor is subordinated in right of payment to the Notes (for the avoidance of doubt, any such Indebtedness owing to a Restricted
Subsidiary that is not

is not a Guarantor shall be deemed to be expressly subordinated in right of payment to such Subsidiary Guarantor’s Guarantee of the Notes unless the terms of such Indebtedness expressly provide otherwise); provided, further,
that any subsequent issuance or transfer of any Capital Stock or any other event which results in any such Restricted Subsidiary ceasing to be a Restricted Subsidiary or any subsequent transfer of any such Indebtedness (except to the Issuer or
another Restricted Subsidiary or any pledge of such Indebtedness constituting a Permitted Lien) shall be deemed, in each case, to be an incurrence of such Indebtedness (to the extent such Indebtedness is then outstanding) not permitted by this
clause (viii);
  
 (ix) shares of Preferred Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary issued to the
Issuer or another Restricted Subsidiary; provided that any subsequent issuance or transfer of any Capital Stock or any other event which results in any such Restricted Subsidiary ceasing to be a Restricted Subsidiary or any other subsequent
transfer of any such shares of Preferred Stock (except to the Issuer or another of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any pledge of such Capital Stock constituting a Permitted Lien) shall be deemed in each case to be an issuance of such shares of
Preferred Stock (to the extent such Preferred Stock is then outstanding) not permitted by this clause (ix);
  

(x) Hedging Obligations (excluding Hedging Obligations entered into for speculative purposes) for the purpose of limiting interest rate risk with respect to any Indebtedness

Interests to the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries) as determined in accordance with clauses (C)(2) and (C)(3) of Section 4.07(a) hereof to the extent such net cash proceeds or cash have not been applied pursuant to such clauses to make Restricted
Payments pursuant to Section 4.07(b) hereof or to make Permitted Investments specified in clauses (h), (k), (m), (bb) or (cc) of the definition thereof, and (B) Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock of the Issuer and Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or

being understood that any Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock incurred pursuant to this clause (xii)(B) shall cease to be deemed incurred or outstanding for purposes of this clause (xii)(B) but shall be deemed incurred for the
purposes of 
  
	 
	-77-
	  

	 

  
 Section 4.09(a) hereof from and after the first date on which the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary
could have incurred such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock under Section 4.09(a) hereof without reliance on this clause (xii)(B);
  

(xiii) the incurrence or issuance by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock which serves to extend, replace, refund,

additional Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock incurred to pay premiums (including tender premiums), defeasance costs, and accrued interest, fees and expenses in connection therewith (the “Refinancing

Indebtedness deemed incurred pursuant to this clause (xxiii) shall cease to be deemed incurred or outstanding for purposes of this clause (xxiii) but shall be deemed incurred for the purposes of Section 4.09(a) hereof from and after the first date
on which the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiaries could have incurred such Indebtedness under Section 4.09(a) hereof without reliance on this clause (xxiii); 
  
	 
	-79-

 (c) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.09:

 
 (i) in the event that an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion
thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of permitted Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock described in clauses (i) through (xxvi) of Section 4.09(b) hereof or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section
4.09(a) hereof, the Issuer, in its sole discretion, may classify or reclassify such item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) and shall only be required to include the amount and type of such Indebtedness,
Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock in one of the clauses under Section 4.09(b) or under Section 4.09(a) hereof; provided that all Indebtedness outstanding under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities on the Issue Date shall be treated as
incurred on the Issue Date under clause (i) of Section 4.09(b) hereof; and
  
 (ii) the
Issuer shall be entitled to divide and classify an item of Indebtedness in more than one of the types of Indebtedness described in Section 4.09(a) and Section 4.09(b) hereof.
  

Accrual of interest or dividends, the accretion of accreted value, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount and the payment of interest or dividends in the form of
additional Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, as the case may be, of the same class shall not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock for purposes of this Section 4.09. Any Refinancing
Indebtedness and any Indebtedness permitted to be incurred under this Indenture to refinance Indebtedness incurred pursuant to clauses (i) and (xii)(B) of Section 4.09(b) hereof shall be deemed to include additional Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock
or Preferred Stock incurred to pay premiums (including tender premiums), defeasance costs, fees and expenses in connection with such refinancing.
  

For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. Dollar Equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness
denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term debt, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit debt;
provided that if such Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the
relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed (A) the
principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced plus (B) the aggregate amount of fees, underwriting discounts, premiums (including tender premiums) and other costs and expenses (including original issue discount, upfront fees or similar fees)
incurred in connection with such refinancing.
  
	 
	-80-
	  

	 

 

 The principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being
refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such respective Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any Subsidiary Guarantor to,
directly or indirectly, incur any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) that is contractually subordinated or junior in right of payment to any Indebtedness of the Issuer or such Guarantor, as the case may be, unless such Indebtedness is
expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee to the extent and in the same manner as such Indebtedness is subordinated to other Indebtedness of the Issuer or such Guarantor, as the case may be.

 
 This Indenture shall not treat (1) unsecured Indebtedness as subordinated or junior to Secured Indebtedness merely
because it is unsecured or (2) Indebtedness as subordinated or junior to any other Indebtedness merely because it has a junior priority with respect to the same collateral or because it is guaranteed by other obligors.

 
 Section 4.10. Asset Sales.

 
 (a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale,
unless:
  
 (i) the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at
the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Issuer at the time of contractually agreeing to such Asset Sale) of the assets sold or otherwise disposed of; and

 
 (ii) except in the case of a Permitted Asset Swap, at least 75.0% of the consideration for
such Asset Sale, together with all other Asset Sales since the Issue Date (on a cumulative basis), received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of Cash Equivalents; provided that the amount
of:
  
 (A) any liabilities (as shown on the Issuer’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most
recent balance sheet or in the footnotes thereto or, if incurred or increased subsequent to the date of such balance sheet, such liabilities that would have been shown on the Issuer’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s balance sheet or in
the footnotes thereto if such incurrence or increase had taken place on or prior to the date of such balance sheet, as determined by the Issuer) of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, other than liabilities that are by their terms subordinated
to the Notes, that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to a written agreement which releases or indemnifies the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from such liabilities;

 
 (B) any securities, notes or other obligations or assets received by the Issuer or such
Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary into Cash Equivalents (to the extent of the Cash Equivalents received) within 180 days (450 days in the case of any securities, notes or other
obligations or assets received in respect of any Asset Sale of the Specified Real Property Assets) following the closing of such Asset Sale; and
  

(C) any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate fair market value, taken together with all
other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (C) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed the greater of (i) $710.0 million and (ii) 5.0% of Total Assets at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-cash
Consideration, with the fair market value of each item of Designated Non-cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value,

 
 shall be deemed to be Cash Equivalents for purposes of this provision and for no other purpose.

 
	 
	-81-
	  

	 

 

 (b) Within 450 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, at its option, may apply the
Net Proceeds from such Asset Sale:
  
 (i) to permanently reduce Indebtedness as follows:

 
 (A) Obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, and to correspondingly reduce commitments
with respect thereto;
  
 (B) Obligations under Secured Indebtedness which is secured by a
Lien that is permitted by this Indenture, and to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto;
  

(C) Obligations under the Notes or any other Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (and, in the case of other Senior Indebtedness, to correspondingly
reduce any outstanding commitments with respect thereto, if applicable); provided that if the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary shall so repay any Senior Indebtedness other than the Notes, the Issuer will either (A) reduce Obligations
under each series of Notes on a pro rata basis by, at its option, (x) redeeming Notes as provided under Section 3.07 hereof or (y) purchasing Notes through open-market purchases or in privately negotiated transactions at market prices (which may be
below par), or (B) make an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth in Sections 3.08 and 4.10(c) hereof) to all Holders to purchase their Notes on a ratable basis with such other Senior Indebtedness for no less than 100.0% of the principal
amount of such Notes, plus the amount of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, to, but excluding, the date of repurchase; or

 
 (D) if the assets that are the subject of such Asset Sale are the property or assets of a
Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor, to permanently reduce Indebtedness of (i) a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor, other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, or (ii) the Issuer or a Subsidiary
Guarantor; or
  
 (ii) to make (A) an Investment in any one or more businesses,
provided that such Investment in any business is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock and results in the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, owning an amount of the Capital Stock of such business
such that it constitutes a Restricted Subsidiary, (B) capital expenditures or (C) acquisitions of other assets, in each of (A), (B) and (C), used or useful in a Similar Business; or 

 
 (iii) to make an Investment in (A) any one or more businesses, provided that such
Investment in any business is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock and results in the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, owning an amount of the Capital Stock of such business such that it constitutes a
Restricted Subsidiary, (B) capital expenditures, (C) properties or (D) acquisitions of other assets that, in each of (A), (B), (C) and (D), replace the businesses, properties and/or assets that are the subject of such Asset Sale;

 
 provided that a binding commitment entered into not later than such 450th day shall be treated as a permitted application of the
Net Proceeds from the date of such commitment so long as the Issuer, or such Restricted Subsidiary enters into such commitment with the good faith expectation that such Net Proceeds will be applied to satisfy such commitment within the later of such
450th day and 180 days of such commitment (an “Acceptable Commitment”) and, in the event any Acceptable Commitment is later cancelled or terminated for any reason before the Net Proceeds are applied in connection
therewith, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary enters into another Acceptable Commitment (a “Second Commitment”) within 180 days of such cancellation or termination; provided further that if any Second
Commitment is later cancelled or terminated for any reason before such Net Proceeds are applied, then such Net Proceeds shall constitute Excess Proceeds.
  

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 4.10, (i) to the extent that the application of any or all of the Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale by the Issuer or a Foreign Subsidiary
(a “Foreign Disposition”) is (x) prohibited 
  
	 
	-82-
	  

	 

  
 or materially delayed by applicable local law or (y) prohibited or materially delayed by applicable organizational
documents or any agreement from being repatriated to the United States, an amount equal to the portion of such Net Proceeds so affected will not be required to be applied in compliance with this Section 4.10, and such amount may be retained by the
Issuer or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary; provided that if at any time within one year following the date on which the respective payment would otherwise have been required, such repatriation of any of such affected Net Proceeds is
permitted under the applicable local law or the applicable organizational document or agreement, an amount equal to such amount of Net Proceeds so permitted to be repatriated will be promptly applied (net of any taxes, costs or expenses that would
be payable or reserved against if such amounts were actually repatriated whether or not they are repatriated) in compliance with this Section 4.10 and (ii) to the extent that the Issuer has determined in good faith that repatriation of any or all of
the Net Proceeds of any Foreign Disposition could have a material adverse tax consequence with respect to such Net Proceeds (which for the avoidance of doubt, includes, but is not limited to, any prepayment whereby doing so the Issuer, any
Restricted Subsidiary or any of their respective Affiliates and/or their equityholders would incur a material tax liability, including as a result of a tax dividend, a deemed dividend pursuant to Code Section 956 or a withholding tax), the Net
Proceeds so affected may be retained by the Issuer or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary and an amount equal to such Net Proceeds will not be required to be applied in compliance with this Section 4.10. The non-application of any prepayment amounts
as a consequence of the foregoing provisions will not, for the avoidance of doubt, constitute a Default or an Event of Default. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Indenture shall be construed to require the Issuer or any Subsidiary to
repatriate cash.
  
 (c) Any Net Proceeds from the Asset Sale that are not invested or applied as provided and within
the time period set forth in Section 4.10(b) hereof will be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $200.0 million, the Issuer shall make an offer (an
“Asset Sale Offer”) to all Holders of the Notes and, if required by the terms of any Indebtedness that ranks pari passu with the Notes (“Pari Passu Indebtedness”), to the holders of
such Pari Passu Indebtedness, to purchase the maximum aggregate principal amount of the Notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness that is in an amount equal to at least $2,000, or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, that may be purchased
out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price, in the case of the Notes, in cash in an amount equal to 100.0% of the principal amount thereof (or accreted value thereof, if less), plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date fixed for the
closing of such offer, and in the case of any Pari Passu Indebtedness at the offer price required by the terms thereof but not to exceed 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, in accordance with the
procedures set forth in this Indenture and the agreement(s) governing such Pari Passu Indebtedness. The Issuer will commence an Asset Sale Offer with respect to Excess Proceeds within ten Business Days after the date that Excess Proceeds exceed
$200.0 million by delivering the notice required pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, with a copy to the Trustee. The Issuer may satisfy the foregoing obligations with respect to any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale by making an Asset Sale Offer
with respect to such Net Proceeds prior to the expiration of the relevant 450 days (or such longer period provided above) or with respect to Excess Proceeds of $200.0 million or less.

 
 To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness, as the case may be, tendered
pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Issuer may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for any purposes not otherwise prohibited under this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes or the Pari Passu
Indebtedness, as the case may be, surrendered by such holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Issuer shall purchase the Notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness, as the case may be, on a pro rata basis based on the accreted value or
principal amount of the Notes or such Pari Passu Indebtedness, as the case may be, tendered with adjustments as necessary so that no Notes or Pari Passu Indebtedness, as the case may be, will be repurchased in part in an unauthorized denomination.
Upon completion of any such Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds that resulted in the requirement to make an Asset Sale Offer shall be reset to zero (regardless of whether there are any remaining Excess Proceeds upon such completion).
Additionally, the Issuer may, at its option, make an Asset Sale Offer using the proceeds from any Asset Sale at any time after the consummation of such Asset Sale. Upon consummation or expiration of any Asset Sale Offer, any remaining Net Proceeds
shall not be deemed Excess Proceeds and the Issuer may use such Net Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited under this Indenture.
  

(d) Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds pursuant to this Section 4.10, the holder of such Net Proceeds may apply such Net Proceeds temporarily to reduce Indebtedness
outstanding under a revolving credit 
  
	 
	-83-
	  

	 

  
 facility, including under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, or otherwise invest such Net Proceeds
in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture.
  
 (e) The notice, if delivered electronically or mailed in a manner
herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. If (i) the notice is delivered electronically or mailed in a manner herein provided and (ii) any Holder fails to receive such notice
or a Holder receives such notice but it is defective, such Holder’s failure to receive such notice or such defect shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the purchase of the Notes as to all other Holders that properly received
such notice without defect. The Issuer shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws or regulations are applicable in connection with the
repurchase by the Issuer of the Notes of a series pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Indenture, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable
securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations described in this Indenture by virtue thereof.
  

The provisions of this Section 4.10 may be waived or modified with respect to a series of Notes at any time with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of all the Notes of such series then outstanding. With respect to the Notes of a series, an Asset Sale Offer may be made at the same time as consents are solicited with respect to an amendment, supplement or waiver of the Indenture, such
series of Notes and/or the applicable Guarantees.
  
 Section 4.11. Transactions with
Affiliates.
  
 (a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any
payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee
with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Issuer (each of the foregoing, an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $50.0 million, unless:

 
 (i) such Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are not materially less favorable to the Issuer or its
relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person on an arm’s-length basis or, if in the good faith judgment of the Issuer,
no comparable transaction is available with which to compare such Affiliate Transaction, such Affiliate Transaction is otherwise fair to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view and when such transaction is taken in
its entirety; and
  
 (ii) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee with respect to any Affiliate
Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $75.0 million, a resolution adopted by the majority of the Board of Directors of the Issuer approving such Affiliate Transaction and
set forth in an Officer’s Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (i) of this Section 4.11(a).
  

(b) The provisions of Section 4.11(a) hereof shall not apply to the following:
  

(i) transactions between or among the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;
  

(ii) Restricted Payments permitted by Section 4.07 hereof and the definition of “Permitted Investments”;

 
 (iii) transactions pursuant to the Transaction Agreements, or any amendment thereto or
replacement thereof so long as any such amendment or replacement is not materially disadvantageous in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Issuer to the Holders when taken as a whole, as compared to the applicable agreement as in
effect immediately prior to such amendment or replacement;
  
	 
	-84-
	  

	 

 

 (iv) (A) employment agreements, employee benefit and incentive compensation plans and arrangements and (B) the payment of reasonable
and customary fees and compensation paid to, and indemnities and reimbursements and employment and severance arrangements provided on behalf of or for the benefit of, current or former employees, directors, officers, managers or consultants of the
Issuer, any of its direct or indirect parent companies or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;
  

(v) transactions in which the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, delivers to the Trustee a letter from an Independent Financial Advisor stating
that such transaction is fair to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view or stating that the terms are not materially less favorable, when taken as a whole, to the Issuer or its relevant Restricted Subsidiary than
those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person on an arm’s-length basis;

 
 (vi) any agreement or arrangement as in effect as of the Issue Date, or any amendment
thereto (so long as any such amendment is not disadvantageous in any material respect in the good faith judgment of the Issuer to the Holders when taken as a whole as compared to the applicable agreement as in effect on the Issue Date);

 
 (vii) the existence of, or the performance by the Issuer or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries of its obligations under the terms of, any stockholders agreement (including any registration rights agreement or purchase agreement related thereto) to which it (or any parent company of the Issuer) is a party as of the Issue Date and
any similar agreements which it (or any parent company of the Issuer) may enter into thereafter; provided that the existence of, or the performance by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or such parent company) of obligations
under any future amendment to any such existing agreement or under any similar agreement entered into after the Issue Date shall only be permitted by this clause (vii) to the extent that the terms of any such amendment or new agreement are not
otherwise disadvantageous in any material respect in the good faith judgment of the Issuer to the Holders when taken as a whole;
  

(viii) the Spin-Off Transaction and the payment of all fees and expenses related thereto;

 
 (ix) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers, contractors, joint venture partners or
purchasers or sellers of goods or services that are Affiliates (including hotel management or franchise agreements entered into with any of the foregoing), in each case in the ordinary course of business or that are consistent with past practice
and, in each case, otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture which are fair to the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, in the reasonable determination of the Issuer, or are on terms at least as favorable as might reasonably have
been obtained at such time from an unaffiliated party;
  
 (x) the issuance or transfer of
Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Issuer to any direct or indirect parent company of the Issuer or to any Permitted Holder or to any employee, director, officer, manager or consultant (or their respective Affiliates or
Immediate Family Members) of the Issuer, any of its direct or indirect parent companies or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;
  

(xi) sales of accounts receivable, or participations therein, or Securitization Assets or related assets in connection with any Qualified Securitization Facility;

 
 (xii) [Reserved];

the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries and Preferred Stock (and cancellation of any thereof) of any Restricted Subsidiary to any future, current or former employee, director, officer, manager or consultant (or their respective Controlled
Investment Affiliates or Immediate Family Members) of the Issuer, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its direct or indirect parent companies pursuant to any management equity plan or stock option plan or any other management or employee benefit plan

(xiv) (i) investments by Permitted Holders in securities or loans of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (and payment of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred
by such Permitted Holders in connection therewith) so long as the investment is being offered by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary generally to other investors on the same or more favorable terms, and (ii) payments to Permitted Holders in
respect of securities or loans of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries contemplated in the foregoing subclause (i) or that were acquired from Persons other than the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, in each case, in accordance with

would constitute an Affiliate Transaction solely because the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiary owns an equity interest in or otherwise controls such Subsidiary, joint venture or similar entity.

 
 Section 4.12. Liens. The Issuer will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary Guarantor to,
directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien (except Permitted Liens) that secures Obligations under any Indebtedness or any related guarantee of Indebtedness, on any asset or property of the Issuer or any Subsidiary
Guarantor, or any income or profits therefrom, or assign or convey any right to receive income therefrom, unless:
  

(a) in the case of Liens securing Subordinated Indebtedness, the Notes and related Guarantees of the applicable series are secured by a Lien on such property, assets or proceeds that is
senior in priority to such Liens; and
  
 (b) in all other cases, the Notes or the Guarantees of the applicable series
are equally and ratably secured, 
  
	 
	-86-
	  

	 

 

 except that the foregoing shall not apply to or restrict Liens securing obligations in respect of the Notes and the related Guarantees of such series.

 
 Any Lien created for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes pursuant to this Section 4.12 shall be deemed
automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of each of the Liens described in clauses (a) and (b) above.
  

With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the incurrence of such Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure
any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness. The “Increased Amount” of any Indebtedness shall mean any increase in the amount of such Indebtedness outstanding in connection with any accrual of interest, the accretion of
accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference and increases in the principal amount of
Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies or increases in the value of property securing Indebtedness.
  

Section 4.13. Company Existence. Subject to Article 5 hereof, the Issuer shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and
effect its corporate existence, and the corporate, partnership, limited liability company or other existence of each of its Restricted Subsidiaries (including the Issuer), in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the same may
be amended from time to time) of the Issuer or any such Restricted Subsidiary; provided that the Issuer shall not be required to preserve the corporate, partnership or other existence of its Restricted Subsidiaries, if the Issuer in good
faith shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole. For the avoidance of doubt, the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries will be
permitted to change their organizational form; provided that for so long as an Issuer is organized as a partnership or a limited liability company, it will maintain a corporate co-issuer of the Notes. 

 
 Section 4.14. Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control Triggering Event. If a
Change of Control Triggering Event occurs with respect to the Notes of a series, unless the Issuer has previously or concurrently sent a redemption notice with respect to all the outstanding Notes of such series as described under Sections 3.03 and
3.07 hereof, the Issuer shall make an offer to purchase all of the Notes of such series pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”) at a price in cash equal to 101.0% of the aggregate principal
amount thereof (or such higher amount as the Issuer may determine (any Change of Control Offer at a higher amount, an “Alternate Offer”)) (such price, the “Change of Control Payment”) plus
accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of purchase, subject to the right of Holders of the Notes of such series of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date falling
prior to or on the purchase date. Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuer will send notice of such Change of Control Offer electronically or by first-class mail, with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder of Notes
of such series to the address of such Holder appearing in the Note Register or otherwise delivered in accordance with the Applicable Procedures with the following information:

 
 (a) that a Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.14 and that all Notes of such series
properly tendered pursuant to such Change of Control Offer will be accepted for payment by the Issuer;
  
 (b) the
purchase price and the purchase date, which will be no earlier than 10 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is sent (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), except in the case of a conditional Change of
Control Offer made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event in accordance with clause (l) of this Section 4.14;
  

(c) that any Note of such series not properly tendered will remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest;
  
	 
	-87-
	  

	 

 

 (d) that unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, all Notes of such series accepted for payment pursuant to the
Change of Control Offer shall cease to accrue interest on the Change of Control Payment Date;
  
 (e) that Holders
electing to have any Notes of such series purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer shall be required to surrender such Notes, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of such Notes completed or
otherwise in accordance with the Applicable Procedures, to the Paying Agent specified in the notice at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date;

 
 (f) [Reserved]
  

(g) that Holders whose Notes are being purchased only in part shall be issued new Notes of such series and such new Notes will be equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the
Notes surrendered. The unpurchased portion of the Notes must be equal to at least $2,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess of $2,000;
  

(h) if such notice is delivered prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, stating that the Change of Control Offer is conditional on the occurrence of such Change of
Control Triggering Event and shall describe each such condition, and, if applicable, shall state that, in the Issuer’s discretion, the Change of Control Payment Date may be delayed until such time (including more than 60 days after the notice
is mailed or delivered, including by electronic transmission) as any such condition shall be satisfied, or that such repurchase may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any such condition shall not have been satisfied by the
Change of Control Payment Date, or by the Change of Control Payment Date as so delayed; and
  
 (i) any other
instructions, as determined by the Issuer, consistent with this Section 4.14 that a Holder must follow in order to have the Notes repurchased.
  

The notice, if delivered electronically or mailed in a manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. If (a) the
notice is delivered or mailed in a manner herein provided and (b) any Holder fails to receive such notice or a Holder receives such notice but it is defective, such Holder’s failure to receive such notice or such defect shall not affect the
validity of the proceedings for the purchase of the Notes as to all other Holders that properly received such notice without defect. The Issuer shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and
regulations thereunder to the extent such laws or regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase by the Issuer of Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations
conflict with the provisions of this Indenture, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations described in this Indenture by virtue thereof.

 
 (j) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer shall, to the extent permitted by law:

 
 (i) accept for payment all Notes of the applicable series issued by it or portions thereof properly
tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;
  
 (ii) deposit with the Paying Agent an
amount equal to the aggregate Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes of such series or portions thereof so tendered; and
  

(iii) deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee for cancellation the Notes of such series so accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee
stating that such Notes or portions thereof have been tendered to and purchased by the Issuer.
  
 (k) The Issuer
shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control Triggering Event if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer (including, for the avoidance 
  
	 
	-88-
	  

	 

  
 of doubt, an Alternate Offer) in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in
this Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer.
  

(l) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Change of Control Offer (including, for the avoidance of doubt, an Alternate Offer) may be made in advance of a Change of Control
Triggering Event, conditional upon such Change of Control Triggering Event, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control Triggering Event at the time of making of the Change of Control Offer.

 
 (m) Other than as specifically provided in this Section 4.14, any purchase pursuant to this Section 4.14 shall be made
pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.02, 3.05 and 3.06 hereof, and references therein to “redeem,” “redemption,” “Redemption Date” and similar words shall be deemed to refer to “purchase,”
“repurchase” and “Change of Control Payment Date” and similar words, as applicable.
  
 The
provisions of this Section 4.14 may be waived or modified with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of all the Notes of the applicable series then outstanding. With respect to the Notes of a series, a Change of
Control Offer (including, for the avoidance of doubt, an Alternate Offer) may be made at the same time as consents are solicited with respect to an amendment, supplement or waiver of the Indenture, such series of Notes and/or the applicable
Guarantees so long as the offer to purchase a Holder’s Notes of such series in the tender offer is not conditioned upon the delivery of consents by such Holder. In addition, the Issuer or any third party approved in writing by the Issuer that
is making the Change of Control Offer (including, for the avoidance of doubt, an Alternate Offer) may increase or decrease the Change of Control Payment (or decline to pay any early tender or similar premium) being offered to Holders at any time in
its sole discretion, so long as the Change of Control Payment is at least equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes of such series being repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

 
 Section 4.15. Limitation on Guarantees of Indebtedness by Restricted Subsidiaries. The
Issuer shall not permit any of its Wholly Owned Subsidiaries that are Restricted Subsidiaries (and non-Wholly Owned Subsidiaries if such non-Wholly Owned Subsidiaries guarantee other capital markets debt securities of the Issuer or any Subsidiary
Guarantor), other than a Subsidiary Guarantor, a Foreign Subsidiary or a Securitization Subsidiary, to guarantee the payment of (i) any Credit Facility permitted under clause (i) of Section 4.09(b) hereof or (ii) capital markets debt securities of
the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor unless:
  
 (a) such Restricted Subsidiary within 60 days after the guarantee
of such Indebtedness executes and delivers a supplemental indenture to this Indenture, the form of which is attached as Exhibit D hereto, providing for a Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary, except that with respect to a guarantee of
Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, if such Indebtedness is by its express terms subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee, any such guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary with respect to
such Indebtedness shall be subordinated in right of payment to such Guarantee substantially to the same extent as such Indebtedness is subordinated to the Notes; and
  

(b) such Restricted Subsidiary waives and shall not in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any rights of reimbursement, indemnity or subrogation or any other
applicable rights against the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary as a result of any payment by such Restricted Subsidiary under its Guarantee;
  

provided that this Section 4.15 shall not be applicable to any guarantee of any Restricted Subsidiary that existed at the time such Person became a Restricted Subsidiary and was not incurred in
connection with, or in contemplation of, such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary. The Issuer may elect, in its sole discretion, to cause any Subsidiary that is not otherwise required to be a Guarantor to become a Guarantor, in which case such
Subsidiary shall not be required to comply with the 60 day period described in clause (a) of this Section 4.15.
  

Section 4.16. Termination of Covenants.
  
	 
	-89-
	  

	 

 

 (a) With respect to any series of Notes, if on any date (i) the Notes of such series have an Investment Grade Rating from either of the Rating
Agencies and (ii) no Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture with respect to such series of Notes, then, beginning on that day and continuing at all times thereafter regardless of any subsequent changes in the rating of the Notes
of such series, each of Section 4.07, Section 4.08, Section 4.09, Section 4.10, Section 4.11, Section 4.15 and clause (iv) of Section 5.01(a) hereof shall no longer be applicable to the Notes of such series.

 
 (b) The Trustee shall have no obligation to determine if the Notes of any series have an Investment Grade Rating at
any time or to provide Holders with notice of whether the Notes of any series have an Investment Grade Rating or no longer have an Investment Grade Rating.

(d) [Reserved]
  
 (e) Subject to Section 10.06 hereof, no
Subsidiary Guarantor shall, and the Issuer shall not permit any Subsidiary Guarantor to, consolidate or merge with or into or wind up into or consummate a Division as the Dividing Person (whether or not such Subsidiary Guarantor is the surviving

other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary, whether such Indebtedness or guarantee now exists or is created after the issuance of the Notes, if both:

 
 (A) such default either results from the failure to pay any principal of such Indebtedness at its stated
final maturity (after giving effect to any applicable grace periods) or relates to an obligation other than the obligation to pay principal of any such Indebtedness at its stated final maturity and results in the holder or holders of such
Indebtedness causing such Indebtedness to become due prior to its stated maturity; and

event such judgment is covered by insurance, an enforcement proceeding has been commenced by any creditor upon such judgment or decree which is not promptly stayed;

 
 (vi) the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary (or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that

Issuer or any such Subsidiary or such group of Restricted Subsidiaries is to be adjudicated bankrupt or insolvent;
  

(B) appoints a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or other similar official of the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary (or any group of Restricted
Subsidiaries that together (as of the latest audited consolidated financial statements of the Issuer for a fiscal quarter end provided as required under Section 4.03 hereof) would constitute a Significant Subsidiary), or for all or substantially all
of the property of the Issuer or any such Significant Subsidiary or such group of Restricted Subsidiaries; or
  

(C) orders the liquidation of the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary (or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that together (as of the latest audited consolidated financial
statements of the Issuer for a fiscal quarter end provided as required under Section 4.03 hereof) would constitute a Significant Subsidiary);
  

and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days; or
  
	 
	-93-
	  

	 

 

 (viii) the Guarantee of HLT Parent, HWP or any Significant Subsidiary (or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that together (as of
the latest audited consolidated financial statements of the Issuer for a fiscal quarter end provided as required under Section 4.03 hereof) would constitute a Significant Subsidiary) of the Notes of such series shall for any reason cease to be in
full force and effect or be declared null and void or any responsible officer of HLT Parent, HWP or any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary (or the responsible officers of any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that together (as of the latest
audited consolidated financial statements of the Issuer for a fiscal quarter end provided as required under Section 4.03 hereof) would constitute a Significant Subsidiary), as the case may be, denies in writing that it has any further liability
under its Guarantee of the Notes of such series or gives written notice to such effect, other than by reason of the termination of this Indenture or the release of any such Guarantee in accordance with this Indenture.

 
 (b) In the event of any Event of Default specified in clause (iv) of Section 6.01(a) hereof, such Event of Default and
all consequences thereof (excluding any resulting payment default, other than as a result of acceleration of the Notes of a series) 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:
  
 (i) the Indebtedness or guarantee that is the basis
for such Event of Default has been discharged;
  
 (ii) the requisite number of holders
thereof have rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or action (as the case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default; or
  

(iii) the default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured.
  

Section 6.02. Acceleration. If any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default of the type specified in clause (vi) or (vii) of Section 6.01(a) hereof) occurs
with respect to the Notes of a series and is continuing under this Indenture, the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 30.0% in aggregate principal amount of all the then outstanding Notes of the affected series may, by notice to the Issuer and
the Trustee, in either case specifying in such notice the respective Event of Default and that such notice is a “notice of acceleration”, declare the principal, premium, if any, interest and any other monetary obligations on all the then
outstanding Notes of such series to be due and payable immediately.
  
 Upon the effectiveness of such declaration,
such principal of and premium, if any, and interest for such series of Notes will be due and payable immediately.
  

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising under clause (vi) or (vii) of Section 6.01(a) hereof, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable without
further action or notice. The Trustee may withhold from the Holders notice of any continuing Default, except a Default relating to the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest.
In addition, subject to Section 6.05, the Trustee will have no obligation to accelerate the Notes of a series if in the judgment of the Trustee acceleration is not in the interests of the Holders of all of the Notes of such series.

 
 Section 6.03. Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing in respect of
a series of Notes, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the applicable series of Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes of such series 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. Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of all the Notes of a series then outstanding, by written notice to the Trustee (with a copy to the Issuer, provided that any 

 
	 
	-94-
	  

	 

  
 waiver or rescission under this Section 6.04 shall be valid and binding notwithstanding the failure to provide a copy of
such notice to the Issuer) may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes of such series waive any existing Default and its consequences under this Indenture with respect to such series (except a continuing Default in the payment of interest on,
premium, if any, or the principal of any Note of such series held by a non-consenting Holder) (including in connection with an Asset Sale Offer or a Change of Control Offer) and rescind any acceleration with respect to the Notes of such series and
its consequences under this Indenture (except if such rescission would conflict with any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist with respect to the Notes of such series, and any Event
of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured with respect to the Notes of such series for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent
thereto.
  
 Section 6.05. Control by Majority. Subject to Section 7.01(e) hereof, the
Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of all the then outstanding Notes of a series, may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or
power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Notes of such series and the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction. 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 or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability.

 
 Section 6.06. Limitation on Suits. Subject to Section 6.07 hereof, no Holder of a Note of
any series may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes of such series unless:
  
 (a) such
Holder has previously given the Trustee written notice that an Event of Default is continuing;
  
 (b) the Holders of
at least 30.0% in the aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of such series have requested in writing the Trustee to pursue the remedy;
  

(c) the Holders of the Notes of such series have offered the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense;

 
 (d) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt thereof and the offer of security
or indemnity; and
  
 (e) the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of all the then outstanding Notes of
such series have not given the Trustee a direction in writing inconsistent with such written request within such 60-day period.
  

Any notice of Default, notice of acceleration or instruction to the Trustee to provide a notice of Default, notice of acceleration or take any other action (a “Noteholder
Direction”) provided by any one or more Holders (each a “Directing Holder”) must be accompanied by a written representation from each such Holder to the Issuer and the Trustee that such Holder is not Net
Short (a “Position Representation”), which representation, in the case of a Noteholder Direction relating to a notice of Default shall be deemed repeated at all times until the resulting Event of Default is cured or
otherwise ceases to exist or the Notes of a series are accelerated. In addition, each Directing Holder must, at the time of providing a Noteholder Direction, covenant to provide the Issuer with such other information as the Issuer may reasonably
request from time to time in order to verify the accuracy of such Holder’s Position Representation within five Business Days of request therefor (a “Verification Covenant”). Notwithstanding anything otherwise to
the contrary, in any case in which the Holder is DTC or its nominee, any Position Representation or Verification Covenant required hereunder shall be provided by the beneficial owner of the Notes of such series in lieu of DTC or its nominee and such
beneficial owner shall provide proof of its holdings in a manner satisfactory to the Trustee.
  
 If, following the delivery of a
Noteholder Direction, but prior to the acceleration of the Notes of such series, the Issuer determines in good faith that there is a reasonable basis to believe that a Directing Holder was, at any relevant 

 
	 
	-95-
	  

	 

  
 time, in breach of its Position Representation and provides to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that
the Issuer has initiated litigation (“Litigation”) in a court of competent jurisdiction, attaching a copy of any related court filings, seeking a determination that such Directing Holder was, at such time, in breach of
its Position Representation, and seeking to invalidate any Event of Default that resulted from the applicable Noteholder Direction, the cure period with respect to such Default shall be automatically stayed or reinstituted pending a final and
non-appealable determination of a court of competent jurisdiction on such matter (a “Final Decision”). Once such an Officer’s Certificate has been provided to the Trustee, the Trustee shall take no further action
pursuant to the related Noteholder Direction until a Final Decision. If, following the delivery of a Noteholder Direction, but prior to the acceleration of the Notes of such series, the Issuer determines in good faith that a Directing Holder has
failed to satisfy its Verification Covenant and provides to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate that such Directing Holder failed to satisfy its Verification Covenant (a “Verification Officer’s
Certificate”), the cure period with respect to such Default shall be automatically stayed and the cure period with respect to any Event of Default that resulted from the applicable Noteholder Direction shall be automatically
reinstituted and any remedy stayed pending satisfaction of such Verification Covenant, and the Trustee shall take no further action pursuant to the related Noteholder Direction until the Issuer provides a subsequent Officer’s Certificate to
the Trustee that such Verification Covenant has been satisfied (a “Covenant Satisfaction Officer’s Certificate”). The Company shall promptly deliver a Covenant Satisfaction Officer's Certificate following
satisfaction by the applicable Directing Holder of its Verification Covenant. Any breach of the Position Representation shall result in such Holder’s participation in such Noteholder Direction being disregarded; and, if, without the
participation of such Holder, the percentage of the Notes of such series held by the remaining Holders that provided such Noteholder Direction would have been insufficient to validly provide such Noteholder Direction, such Noteholder Direction shall
be void ab initio, with the effect that such Event of Default with respect to the Notes of such series shall be deemed never to have occurred, acceleration voided and the Trustee shall be deemed not to have received such Noteholder
Direction or any notice of such Default or Event of Default. 
  
 Notwithstanding anything in the preceding two
paragraphs to the contrary, any Noteholder Direction delivered to the Trustee during the pendency of an Event of Default as the result of a bankruptcy or similar proceeding shall not require compliance with the foregoing paragraph. 

 
 For the avoidance of doubt, the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any Noteholder Direction delivered
to it in accordance with this Indenture, shall have no duty to inquire as to or investigate the accuracy of any Position Representation, enforce compliance with any Verification Covenant, verify any statements in any Officer’s Certificate
delivered to it, or otherwise make calculations, investigations or determinations with respect to Derivative Instruments, Net Shorts, Long Derivative Instruments, Short Derivative Instruments or otherwise and shall have no liability for ceasing to
take any action, staying any remedy or otherwise failing to act in accordance with a Noteholder Direction during the pendency of Litigation or a Noteholder Direction after a Verification Officer’s Certificate has been provided to it but prior
to receipt of a Covenant Satisfaction Officer’s Certificate. The Trustee shall have no liability to the Issuer, any Holder or any other Person in acting in good faith on a Noteholder Direction.

 
 Section 6.07. Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Indenture, the contractual right expressly set forth in this Indenture or the applicable Notes of any Holder of a Note of each series to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Note of such series, on or after the
respective due dates expressed in the Note of such series (including in connection with an Asset Sale Offer or a Change of Control Offer), or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be
amended without the consent of such Holder. 
  
 Section 6.08. Collection Suit by Trustee.
If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(i) or (ii) hereof occurs and is continuing with respect to either series of Notes, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the
Issuer for the whole amount of principal of, premium, if any, and interest remaining unpaid on, the Notes of such series and interest on overdue principal on such series, if applicable, 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 compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.
  
	 
	-96-
	  

	 

 

 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 Issuer, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the 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 hereof, 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 shall, to the extent permitted by law, be 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 6 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 is authorized to file such 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 allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Notes including the Guarantors), their
creditors or their property and shall be 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 and 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 compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof. To the extent that the payment of
any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof 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 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. If the Trustee or any Agent collects any money or property pursuant to this Article 6 with respect to the Notes of any series, it shall
pay out the money or property in the following order:
  
 (a) FIRST, to the Trustee, such Agent, their
agents and attorneys for amounts due under Section 7.07 hereof, including payment of all compensation, expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee or such Agent and the costs and expenses of collection;

 
 (b) SECOND, to Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes of such series for principal,
premium, if any, and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes of such series for principal, premium, if any, and interest, respectively; and

 
 (c) THIRD, to the Issuer or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct
including a Guarantor, if applicable.
  
	 
	-97-
	  

	 

 

 The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section 6.13.

 
 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 the 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 and expenses, 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 of a Note pursuant to Section 6.07 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than 10.0% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of the applicable
series.
  
 ARTICLE 7
TRUSTEE
  

Section 7.01. Duties of Trustee.
  

(a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to any series of Notes, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and
use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs.
  

(b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:
  

(i) the duties of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture and the Trustee need perform only those duties that are specifically set
forth in this Indenture and no others, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and
  

(ii) in the absence of willful misconduct or negligence on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions
expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. However, in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be
furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not investigate or confirm the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other
facts stated therein).
  
 (c) The Trustee may not be relieved from liabilities for its own negligent action, its own
negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that:
  
 (i) this paragraph does not limit the effect
of paragraph (b) of this Section 7.01;
  
 (ii) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment
made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it is proved in a court of competent jurisdiction that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

 
 (iii) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take
in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.02, 6.04 or 6.05 hereof.
  
 (d)
Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 7.01.

 
 (e) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under this Indenture at the
request or direction of any of the Holders unless the Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense.
  
	 
	-98-
	  

	 

 

 (f) The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Issuer. Money held
in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.
  

Section 7.02. Rights of Trustee.
  

(a) The Trustee may conclusively rely upon any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or
matter stated in the document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it
shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost of the Issuer and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason
of such inquiry or investigation.
  
 (b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an
Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. The Trustee may consult with
counsel of its selection and the advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in
reliance thereon.
  
 (c) The Trustee may act through its attorneys and agents and shall not be responsible for the
misconduct or negligence of any agent or attorney appointed with due care.
  
 (d) The Trustee shall not be liable for
any action it takes or omits to take in good faith that it believes to be authorized or within the rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture.
  

(e) Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture, any demand, request, direction or notice from the Issuer shall be sufficient if signed by an Officer of the Issuer.

 
 (f) None of the provisions of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise to
incur any liability, financial or otherwise, in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if an indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not assured to it.

 
 (g) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of
the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a Default or Event of Default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office, and such notice references the Notes of the series affected
and this Indenture.
  
 (h) In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, or
consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

 
 (i) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation,
its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder.

 
 (j) [Reserved]
  

(k) Delivery of reports, information and documents (including without limitation reports contemplated under Section 4.03 hereof) to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the
Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Issuer’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to
which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officer’s Certificates).
  
	 
	-99-
	  

	 

 

 (l) The permissive rights of the Trustee to take certain actions under this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty unless so specified
herein.
  
 (m) The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any
resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond, debenture, note or other paper or document unless requested in writing to do so by the Holders of not less than a majority in principal
amount of the Notes at the time outstanding, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or
investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Issuer, personally or by agent or attorney, at the expense of the Issuer and shall incur no liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation.

 
 (n) The Trustee may request that the Issuer deliver an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the names of
individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture, which Officer’s Certificate may be signed by any Person authorized to sign an Officer’s Certificate, including any Person
specified as so authorized in any such certificate previously delivered and not superseded.
  
 (o) The Trustee shall
not be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under this Indenture arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including, without limitation, acts of
God; earthquakes; fire; flood; terrorism; wars and other military disturbances; sabotage; epidemics; riots; loss or malfunction of utilities, computer (hardware or software) or communication services; strikes or similar labor disputes; and acts of
civil or military authorities and governmental action.
  
 (p) The Trustee shall have no duty to inquire as to the
performance of the Issuer with respect to the covenants contained in Article 4, Section 1.07 and Section 1.08 or to make any calculation in connection therewith or in connection with any redemption of Notes. In addition, except as otherwise
expressly provided herein, the Trustee shall have no obligation to monitor or verify compliance by the Issuer or any Guarantor with any other obligation or covenant under this Indenture.

 
 Section 7.03. Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee in its individual or any other
capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or any of its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest (as
such term is used in the Trust Indenture Act) it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as Trustee (if this Indenture has been qualified under the Trust Indenture Act) or resign. Any Agent may do the
same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11 hereof.
  
 Section
7.04. Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes, it shall not be accountable for the Issuer’s use of the
proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Issuer or upon the Issuer’s direction under any provision of this Indenture, it shall not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than the
Trustee, and it shall not be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Notes or any other document in connection with the sale of the Notes or pursuant to this Indenture other than its certificate of authentication.

 
 Section 7.05. Notice of Defaults. If a Default occurs and is continuing with respect to a
series of Notes and if it is known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall deliver to Holders of such series a notice of the Default within 90 days after it occurs, unless such Default shall have been cured or waived, or if
discovered after 90 days, promptly thereafter. The Trustee may withhold from the Holders notice of any continuing Default, except a Default relating to the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, if it determines that withholding notice
is in their interest.
  
 Section 7.06. [Reserved]

 
	 
	-100-
	  

	 

 

 Section 7.07. Compensation and Indemnity. The Issuer shall pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation for its
acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder as the parties shall agree in writing from time to time. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer shall
reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and
expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel.
  
 The Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall
indemnify the Trustee and its officers, directors, employees, agents and any predecessor trustee and its officers, directors, employees and agents for, and hold the Trustee harmless against, any and all loss, damage, claims, liability or expense
(including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by it in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder (including the reasonable costs and expenses of enforcing this
Indenture against the Issuer or any of the Guarantors (including this Section 7.07) or defending itself against any claim whether asserted by any Holder, the Issuer or any Guarantor, or liability in connection with the acceptance, exercise or
performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder) (but excluding taxes imposed on such Persons in connection with compensation for such administration or performance). The Trustee shall notify the Issuer promptly of any claim of which a
Responsible Officer has received written notice for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer or the Guarantors of their obligations hereunder. The Issuer shall defend the claim and the
Trustee may have separate counsel and the Issuer shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. Neither the Issuer nor any Guarantor need reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Trustee
through the Trustee’s own willful misconduct or negligence. Neither the Issuer nor any Guarantor need pay for any settlement made without its consent.
  

The obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors under this Section 7.07 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or the earlier resignation or removal of the
Trustee.
  
 To secure the payment obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors in this Section 7.07, the Trustee
shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except money or property held in trust to pay principal and interest on particular Notes. Such Lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture.
  
 When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section
6.01(a)(vi) or Section 6.01(a)(vii) hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the reasonable fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy
Law.
  
 Section 7.08. Replacement of Trustee. A resignation or removal of the Trustee and
appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.08. The Trustee may resign in writing at any time and be discharged from the trust hereby
created by so notifying the Issuer. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Issuer in writing at least 30 calendar days prior to the date of such removal.
The Issuer may remove the Trustee if:
  
 (a) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof;

 
 (b) the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent or an order for relief is entered with
respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law;
  
 (c) a custodian or public officer takes
charge of the Trustee or its property; or
  
 (d) the Trustee becomes incapable of
acting.
  
 If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any
reason, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of 
  
	 
	-101-
	  

	 

  
 a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may appoint a successor Trustee to
replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Issuer.
  
 If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days
after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee (at the Issuer’s expense), the Issuer or the Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for
the appointment of a successor Trustee.
  
 If the Trustee, after written request by any Holder who has been a Holder
for at least six months, fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof, such Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

 
 A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuer.
Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall send a notice of its
succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee; provided all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in Section
7.07 hereof. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Issuer’s obligations under Section 7.07 hereof shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

 
 Section 7.09. Successor Trustee by Merger, etc. If the Trustee consolidates, merges or
converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation, the successor corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee.

 
 Section 7.10. Eligibility; Disqualification. There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder
that is a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by
federal or state authorities and that has, together with its parent, a combined capital and surplus of at least $150.0 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition.

 
 This Indenture shall always have a Trustee who satisfies the requirements of Trust Indenture Act Sections 310(a)(1),
(2) and (5). The Trustee is subject to Trust Indenture Act Section 310(b). 
  
 Section 7.11.
Preferential Collection of Claims Against Issuers. The Trustee is subject to Trust Indenture Act Section 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in Trust Indenture Act Section 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been
removed shall be subject to Trust Indenture Act Section 311(a) to the extent indicated therein.
  
 ARTICLE 8
LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND
COVENANT DEFEASANCE
  
 Section 8.01. Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant
Defeasance. The Issuer may, at its option and at any time, elect to have either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof applied to all outstanding Notes of a series and all obligations of the Guarantors with respect to the Guarantees of such Notes upon
compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article 8. To the extent the Issuer exercises its option to effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, such election may be made with respect to the 2025 Notes only, the 2028 Notes only, or
any combination thereof.
  
 Section 8.02. Legal Defeasance and Discharge. Upon the
Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.02 with respect to the Notes of a series, the Issuer and the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04
hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes of such series and the related Guarantees and all Events of Default cured on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied
(“Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer and the Guarantors shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes of such series,
which shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only
  
	 
	-102-
	  

	 

  
 for the purposes of Section 8.05 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (a) and (b) below (it
being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes), and to have satisfied all their other obligations under the Notes of such series and this Indenture including that of the Guarantors (and the Trustee, on
demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same) and to have cured all then existing Events of Default, except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or
discharged hereunder:
  
 (a) the rights of Holders of Notes of such series to receive payments in
respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes of such series when such payments are due solely out of the trust created pursuant to this Indenture referred to in Section 8.04 hereof;

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

 
 (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee, and the Issuer’s
and the Guarantors’ obligations in connection therewith; and
  
 (d) this Section
8.02.
  
 Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Issuer may exercise its option under this Section 8.02
notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.03 hereof.
  
 Section 8.03.
Covenant Defeasance. Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03 with respect to the Notes of a series, the Issuer and the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction
of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from their obligations under Sections 3.08, 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.14, 4.15 and 4.16 hereof, and clauses (iv) and (v) of Section 5.01(a), and
Section 5.01(e) hereof with respect to all outstanding Notes of such series and the related Guarantees, on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof are satisfied (“Covenant Defeasance”), and the
Notes of such series 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 the Notes of such series shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with
respect to all outstanding Notes of a series and the related Guarantees, the Issuer and the Guarantors 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 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture with respect to such series, the Notes of such series and the related Guarantees shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon
the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03 hereof, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, Section 6.01(a)(iii) (solely with respect to the covenants
that are released upon a Covenant Defeasance), 6.01(a)(iv), 6.01(a)(v), 6.01(a)(vi) (solely with respect to Restricted Subsidiaries (other than the Issuer) subject thereto), 6.01(a)(vii) (solely with respect to Restricted Subsidiaries (other than
the Issuer) subject thereto) and 6.01(a)(viii) hereof shall not constitute Events of Default.
  
 Section
8.04. Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. The following shall be the conditions to the application of either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof to the outstanding Notes of a series:

 
 In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance with respect to the Notes of a series:

 
 (a) the Issuer must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders of
Notes of such series, cash in U.S. dollars, U.S. Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of,
premium, if any, and interest due on the Notes of such series on the 
  
	 
	-103-
	  

	 

  
 stated maturity date or on the Redemption Date, as the case may be, of such principal, premium, if any, or
interest on the Notes of such series and the Issuer must specify whether such Notes are being defeased to maturity or to a particular Redemption Date; provided that upon any redemption that requires the payment of the Applicable Premium
with respect to any series of Notes, the amount deposited shall be sufficient for purposes of this Indenture to the extent that an amount is deposited with the Trustee equal to such Applicable Premium calculated as of the date of the notice of
redemption, with any deficit as of the Redemption Date (any such amount, the “Applicable Premium Deficit”) only required to be deposited with the Trustee on or prior to the Redemption Date. Any Applicable Premium Deficit
shall be set forth in an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee simultaneously with the deposit of such Applicable Premium Deficit that confirms that such Applicable Premium Deficit shall be applied toward such redemption for the
applicable series of Notes;
  
 (b) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to
the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions:
  

(i) the Issuer has received from, or there has been published by, the United States Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or

 
 (ii) 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 shall confirm that,
subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, the beneficial owners of the Notes of such series will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and 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;
  

(c) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions,
the beneficial owners of the Notes of such series will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and 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;
  

(d) no Event of Default with respect to the Notes of such series (other than that resulting from borrowing funds to be applied to make such deposit and any similar and
simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness and, in each case, the granting of Liens in connection therewith) shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit;

 
 (e) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation
of, or constitute a default under, the Senior Secured Credit Facilities or any other material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Issuer or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Issuer or any Guarantor is bound (other
than that resulting from any borrowing of funds to be applied to make the deposit required to effect such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness, and, in each case, the
granting of Liens in connection therewith);
  
 (f) the Issuer shall have delivered to the
Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuer with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any creditors of the Issuer or any Guarantor or others; and

 
 (g) the Issuer shall have 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 provided for or relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, have
been complied with.
  
 
	 
	  -104-

	  

	 

    
 Section 8.05. Deposited Money and U.S. Government Securities
to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. Subject to Section 8.06 hereof, all money and U.S. Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of
this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof in respect of the outstanding Notes of a series 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 Issuer or a Guarantor acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of the Notes of such series of all sums due and to become due
thereon in respect of principal, premium and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.
  

The Issuer shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or U.S. Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04
hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes of such series and the related Guarantees.

 
 Anything in this Article 8 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Issuer from time
to time upon the request of the Issuer any money or U.S. Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification
thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(a) hereof), 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 Issuer. Subject to any applicable abandoned property
law, any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Issuer, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note of a series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal,
and premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuer on its request or (if then held by the Issuer) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of the Note of such series shall thereafter look only to the
Issuer for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Issuer as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease.

 
 Section 8.07. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any United
States dollars or U.S. Government Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, 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 Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture and the Notes and the Guarantees shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof until such
time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be; provided that, if the Issuer make any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any
Notes of a series following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of the Notes of such series 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. Notwithstanding Section 9.02 hereof, the Issuer, any Guarantor (with respect to a Guarantee or this Indenture) and the
Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture with respect to any series of Notes, any Guarantee or Notes of a series without the consent of any Holder:
  

(a) to cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency;
  

(b) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes;

 
 (c) to comply with Section 5.01 hereof;

 
 (d) to provide for the assumption of the Issuer’s or any Guarantor’s obligations
to the Holders;
  
	 
	-105-
	  

	 

 

 (e) to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders or that does not materially adversely
affect the legal rights under this Indenture of any such Holder;
  
 (f) to add covenants
for the benefit of the Holders or to surrender any right or power conferred upon the Issuer or any Guarantor;
  

(g) to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes of such series in accordance with the terms of this Indenture;

 
 (h) to comply with the requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the
qualification of this Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act;
  
 (i) to evidence and
provide for the acceptance and appointment under this Indenture of a successor Trustee or a successor Paying Agent hereunder pursuant to the requirements hereof;
  

(j) to make any amendment to the provisions of this Indenture relating to the transfer or legending of the Notes;

 
 (k) to add an obligor or a Guarantor under this Indenture or to release an obligor or a
Guarantor in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; 
  
 (l) to conform the text of
this Indenture with respect to such series, Guarantees or the Notes of such series to any provision of the “Description of the Notes” section of the Offering Memorandum to the extent that such provision in such “Description of the
Notes” section was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of this Indenture, Guarantee or Notes of such series as provided in an Officer’s Certificate; 

 
 (m) 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; provided, however, that such amendment does not materially and adversely affect the rights of
Holders to transfer Notes;
  
 (n) to secure the Notes of such series and/or the related
Guarantees or to add collateral thereto; and
  
 (o) to make any other modifications to the
Notes of such series or the Indenture with respect to such series of a formal, minor or technical nature or necessary to correct a manifest error, so long as such modification does not adversely affect the rights of any Holders of Notes of such
series in any material respect.
  
 Upon the request of the Issuer accompanied by a resolution of the Board of
Directors of the Issuer authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02 hereof (to the extent requested by the Trustee and subject to the last
sentence of Section 9.06), the Trustee shall join with the Issuer and the Guarantors in the execution of any amended or supplemental indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of this Indenture with respect to a series of Notes and to make any
further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall have the right, but not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental indenture that affects its own rights, duties or immunities under
this Indenture or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither an Opinion of Counsel nor an Officer’s Certificate, nor a board resolution, shall be required in connection with the addition of a Guarantor under this Indenture upon
execution and delivery by such Guarantor and the Trustee of a supplemental indenture to this Indenture, the form of which is attached as Exhibit D hereto.
  

Section 9.02. With Consent of Holders. Except as provided in Section 9.01 and this Section 9.02, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement
this Indenture with respect to a series of Notes, the Notes of such series and the related Guarantees with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal 
  
	 
	-106-
	  

	 

  
 amount of all the Notes then outstanding of each series affected thereby, including consents obtained in connection with
a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes of such series and, subject to Section 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, any existing Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium,
if any, or interest on the Notes of such series, except a payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with any provision of this Indenture, the Guarantees or the Notes of such series issued thereunder may be
waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of all the Notes then outstanding of each series affected thereby (including consents obtained in connection with a purchase of or tender offer or exchange offer for the Notes
of such series). Section 2.08 hereof and Section 2.09 hereof shall determine which Notes are considered to be “outstanding” for the purposes of this Section 9.02.
  

Upon the request of the Issuer accompanied by a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Issuer authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon the
filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders as aforesaid, the Trustee shall join with the Issuer and the Guarantors in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture, unless such amended or
supplemental indenture directly affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental
indenture.
  
 For clarity, a Guarantor will only be required to execute amendments of the type described in this
Section 9.02 if it relates to such Guarantor’s Guarantee. It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such
consent approves the substance thereof.
  
 After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes
effective, the Issuer shall send to the Holders affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Issuer to send such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect
the validity of any such amended or supplemental indenture or waiver.
  
 Without the consent of each affected Holder,
an amendment or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not, with respect to any Notes of a series held by a non-consenting Holder:
  

(a) reduce the principal amount of such Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;

 
 (b) reduce the principal of or change the fixed final maturity of any such Note or alter or
waive the provisions with respect to the redemption of such Notes (other than provisions relating to (i) notice periods (to the extent consistent with applicable requirements of clearing and settlement systems) for redemption and conditions to
redemption and (ii) Section 3.08, Section 4.10 and Section 4.14 hereof);
  
 (c) reduce the
rate of or change the time for payment of interest on any such Note;
  
 (d) (A) waive a
Default in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on such Notes, except a rescission of acceleration of such Notes by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of all the Notes of such series then outstanding, and a
waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration, or (B) waive a Default in respect of a covenant or provision contained in this Indenture, the Notes or any Guarantee which cannot be amended or modified without the consent of all
affected Holders of Notes of such series;
  
 (e) make any such Note payable in money other
than that stated therein;
  
 (f) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture
relating to waivers of past Defaults or the contractual rights of Holders to receive payments of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on such Notes;
  

(g) make any change in these amendment and waiver provisions;
  
	 
	-107-
	  

	 

 

 (h) amend the contractual right expressly set forth in this Indenture or the Notes of any Holder to institute suit for the enforcement
of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Notes on or after the due dates therefor;
  

(i) make any change to or modify the ranking of such Notes that would adversely affect the Holders; or

 
 (j) except as expressly permitted by this Indenture, modify the Guarantees of any
Significant Subsidiary, or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together (as of the latest audited consolidated financial statements for the Issuer), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary in any manner materially adverse to the
Holders of such Notes.
  
 Section 9.03. [Reserved]

 
 Section 9.04. Revocation and Effect of Consents. Until an amendment, supplement or waiver
becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder is a continuing consent by the Holder 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 or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective. An amendment,
supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder.
  
 The Issuer
may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any amendment, supplement, or waiver. If a record date is fixed, then, notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, those Persons who
were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only such Persons, shall be entitled to consent to such amendment, supplement, or waiver or to revoke any consent previously given, whether or not such Persons continue to be
Holders after such record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 120 days after such record date unless the consent of the requisite number of Holders has been obtained.

 
 Section 9.05. Notation on or Exchange of Notes. The Trustee may, at the direction of the
Issuer, place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Issuer in exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate new
Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver.
  
 Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new
Note shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.
  
 Section 9.06.
Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc. 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. The Issuer may not sign an amendment, supplement or waiver until the Board of Directors of the Issuer approves it. In executing any amendment, supplement or waiver, the Trustee shall be provided with, upon request, and
(subject to Section 7.01 hereof) shall be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 12.04 hereof, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that the execution of such amended or
supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such amendment, supplement or waiver is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer and any Guarantors party thereto, enforceable against them in accordance with
its terms, subject to customary exceptions, and complies with the provisions hereof (including Section 9.03 hereof). Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither an Opinion of Counsel nor an Officer’s Certificate, nor a resolution, shall be required
for the Trustee to execute any supplemental indenture to this Indenture, the form of which is attached as Exhibit D hereto adding a new Guarantor under this Indenture.

 ARTICLE 10
GUARANTEES
  

Section 10.01. Guarantee. Subject to this Article 10, from and after the Issue Date, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, irrevocably and
unconditionally, guarantees, on an unsecured senior basis, to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee 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 Issuer hereunder or thereunder, that: (a) the principal of and interest and premium, if any, on the Notes of each series shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or
otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes of each series, if any, if lawful, and all other Obligations of the Issuer to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or under the Notes shall be promptly paid in full, all
in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (b) 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 in accordance with the terms of the
extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same promptly. Each
Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.
  
 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 Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor (other than
payment in full of all of the Obligations of the Issuer hereunder or under the Notes of each series). Each Guarantor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in
the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that this Guarantee shall not be discharged except by full payment of the
obligations contained in the Notes of each series and this Indenture or by release in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.
  

Each Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Trustee or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this
Section 10.01.
  
 If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer, the
Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Issuer or the Guarantors, then any amount paid either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged,
shall be reinstated in full force and effect.
  
 Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of
subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and
the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 hereof for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such
acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6 hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due
and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Guarantee. The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any nonpaying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the
Guarantees. Each Guarantor that makes a payment under its Guarantee shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, 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.

 
 Until terminated in accordance with Section 10.06, each Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue
to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Issuer for liquidation, reorganization, should the Issuer 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 Issuer’s assets, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, continue 
  
	 
	-109-
	  

	 

  
 to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment 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 Guarantees, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent transfer” or otherwise, all as
though such payment 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.
  
 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.
  

The Guarantee issued by any Guarantor shall be a general unsecured senior obligation of such Guarantor and shall be pari passu in right of payment with all existing and future
Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor, if any.
  
 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 transfer
or conveyance 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 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 applicable law or being void or voidable under any law relating to insolvency of debtors.

 
 Section 10.03. Execution and Delivery. To evidence its Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01
hereof, each Guarantor hereby agrees that this Indenture (or a supplemental indenture in the form of Exhibit D hereto) shall be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by one of its authorized officers.

 
 Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 hereof shall remain in full force and
effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of any notation of such Guarantee on the Notes.
  
 If an
officer whose signature is on this Indenture (or a supplemental indenture in the form of Exhibit D hereto) no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates a Note, the Guarantee of such Guarantor shall be valid nevertheless.

 
 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.
  
 If required by Section 4.15 hereof, the
Issuer shall cause any newly created or acquired Restricted Subsidiary to comply with the provisions of Section 4.15 hereof and this Article 10, to the extent applicable.
  

Section 10.04. Subrogation. Each Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of Holders against the Issuer in respect of any amounts paid by any Guarantor pursuant
to the provisions of Section 10.01 hereof; 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 Issuer 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) Each Guarantee by a Subsidiary Guarantor with respect to a series of Notes shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged, and shall thereupon terminate
and be of no further force and effect, with respect to such series, and no further action by such Subsidiary Guarantor, the Issuer or the Trustee is required for the release of such Subsidiary Guarantor’s Guarantee, upon:

 
 (i)          (A) any sale, exchange, disposition or
transfer (by merger, amalgamation, consolidation, dividend, distribution or otherwise) of (x) the Capital Stock of such Subsidiary Guarantor, after which the applicable Subsidiary Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary or (y) all or
substantially all the assets of such Subsidiary Guarantor, in each case if such sale, exchange, disposition or transfer is made in compliance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture;

 
 (B) the release or discharge of the guarantee by such Subsidiary Guarantor of Indebtedness
under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, or the release or discharge of such other guarantee that resulted in the creation of such Guarantee, except a discharge or release by or as a result of payment under such guarantee (it being understood
that a release subject to a contingent reinstatement will constitute a release for the purposes of this provision, and that if any such Guarantee is so reinstated, such Guarantee shall also be reinstated to the extent that such Subsidiary Guarantor
would then be required to provide a Guarantee pursuant to Section 4.15 hereof);
  
 (C) the
designation of any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Subsidiary Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in compliance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture; 

 
 (D) the merger or consolidation of any Subsidiary Guarantor with and into the Issuer or
another Guarantor or upon the liquidation of such Guarantor following the transfer of all of its assets to the Issuer or another Guarantor; or
  

(E) with respect to such series of Notes, the exercise by the Issuer of its Legal Defeasance option or Covenant Defeasance option with respect to such series in accordance with
Article 8 hereof or the discharge of the Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture with respect to such series in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; and
  

(ii) such Subsidiary Guarantor delivering to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate of such Subsidiary Guarantor or the Issuer and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that
all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to such transaction or release and discharge have been complied with. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Opinion of Counsel shall be required in the case of a merger or consolidation in
accordance with clause (i)(D) of this Section 10.06(a).
  
 (b) The respective Guarantee by each of HWP
and HLT Parent, as the case may be, of a series of Notes shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged, and shall thereupon terminate and be of no further force and effect, with respect to such series of Notes, and no further
action by HWP, HLT Parent, the Issuer or the Trustee is required for the release of such Guarantee, upon:
  

(i)           (A) the release or discharge of any guarantee by HWP or HLT Parent, as applicable, of Indebtedness under the
Senior Secured Credit Facilities (it being understood that a release subject to a contingent reinstatement will constitute a release for the purposes of this provision); or
  

(B) with respect to such series of Notes, the exercise by the Issuer of its Legal Defeasance option or Covenant Defeasance option with respect to such series in accordance with
Article 8 hereof or the discharge of the Issuer’s obligations with respect to such series under this Indenture in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; and
  
	 
	-111-
	  

	 

 

 (ii) HWP or HLT Parent, as applicable, delivering to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate of HWP or HLT Parent, as applicable,

ARTICLE 11
SATISFACTION
AND DISCHARGE
  
 Section 11.01. Satisfaction and Discharge. This Indenture shall be discharged and shall cease
to be of further effect as to all outstanding Notes of a series when either:
  
 (a) all Notes of such
series theretofore authenticated and delivered, except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes of such series which have been replaced or paid and Notes of such series for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust, have been delivered to
the Trustee for cancellation; or
  
 (b) (i) all Notes of such series not theretofore
delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the making 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 Issuer, and the Issuer has 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 of the Notes of such series cash in U.S. dollars, U.S. dollar-denominated U.S. 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 indebtedness on the Notes of such series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption;
provided that upon any redemption that requires the payment of the Applicable Premium with respect to such series of Notes, the amount deposited shall be sufficient for purposes of this Indenture to the extent that an amount is deposited
with the Trustee equal to such Applicable Premium calculated as of the date of the notice of redemption, with any Applicable Premium Deficit only required to be deposited with the Trustee on or prior to the Redemption Date. Any Applicable Premium
Deficit shall be set forth in an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee simultaneously with the deposit of such Applicable Premium Deficit that confirms that such Applicable Premium Deficit shall be applied toward such redemption of
the applicable series of Notes;
  
 (ii) no Event of Default (other than that resulting from borrowing
funds to be applied to make such deposit or any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness and, in each case, the granting of Liens in connection therewith) with respect to this Indenture or the Notes of such series shall have
occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or shall occur as a result of such deposit and such deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities or any other material
agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Issuer or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Issuer or any Guarantor is bound (other than resulting from any borrowing of funds to be applied to make such deposit and any similar
and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness and, in each case, the granting of Liens in connection therewith);
  

(iii) the Issuer has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by it under this Indenture with respect to such series of Notes; and

 
 (iv) the Issuer has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee to apply the deposited
money toward the payment of the Notes of such series at maturity or the Redemption Date, as the case may be.
  
 In
addition, the Issuer must deliver an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied. Such Opinion of Counsel may rely on such
Officer’s Certificate as to matters of fact, including clauses (b)(i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) of this Section 11.01.
  
	 
	-112-
	  

	 

 

 Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to clause (b)(i) of
this Section 11.01, the provisions of Section 11.02 and Section 8.06 hereof shall survive such satisfaction and discharge.
  

Section 11.02. Application of Trust Money. Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06 hereof, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 11.01 hereof
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 Issuer or a Guarantor acting as its own Paying Agent) as the
Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) 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.
  
 If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Securities in
accordance with Section 11.01 hereof 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 Issuer’s and any
Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 11.01 hereof; provided that if the Issuer has made any payment of principal of, premium,
if any, or interest on any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Securities held by the Trustee or Paying
Agent.

5.375% Senior Notes due 2025
  
 Except for the references to
“Notes” and “Additional Notes” herein, which refer solely to the 5.375% Senior Notes due 2025, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise
indicated.
  
 1. Interest. Hilton Domestic Operating Company Inc., a Delaware corporation (such Person, and its
respective successors and assigns under the Indenture hereinafter referred to, being herein called the “Issuer”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at a rate per annum of 5.375% from April 21,
20201 until maturity. The Issuer will pay interest on this Note semi-annually in arrears on May 1 and November 1 of each year, beginning November 1, 2020, or, if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day
(each, an “Interest Payment Date”). The Issuer will make each interest payment to the Holder of record of this Note on the immediately preceding April 15 and October 15 (each, a “Record
Date”). Interest on this Note will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from and including April 21, 2020. The Issuer will 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 rate borne by this Note; the Issuer 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 rate borne by this Note. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

 
 2. Method of Payment. The Issuer will pay interest on this Note to the Person who is the registered Holder of this
Note at the close of business on the Record Date (whether or not a Business Day) next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if this Note is cancelled after such Record Date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in
Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Cash payments of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Note will be payable at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 4.02 of
the Indenture or, at the option of the Issuer, cash payment of interest may be made through the Paying Agent by check mailed to the Holders at their respective addresses set forth in the Note Register of Holders, provided that (a) all cash
payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to Notes represented by Global Notes registered in the name of or held by DTC or its nominee will be made through the Paying Agent by wire transfer of immediately available funds to
the accounts specified by the registered Holder or Holders thereof and (b) all cash payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to certificated Notes may, at the option of the Issuer, be made by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar
account maintained by the payee with a bank in the United States of America if such Holder elects payment by wire transfer by giving written notice to the Trustee or the Paying Agent to such effect designating such account no later than 30 days
immediately preceding the relevant due date for payment (or such other date as the Trustee may accept in its discretion). Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for
payment of public and private debts.
  
 3. Paying Agent, Transfer Agent and Registrar. Initially, Wilmington
Trust, National Association, the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent, Transfer Agent and Registrar. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent, Transfer Agent or Registrar without prior notice to the Holders. The Issuer or any of its
Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity upon written notice to the Trustee.

the Notes under an Indenture, dated as of April 21, 2020 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Indenture”), among the Issuer, the Guarantors from time to time party thereto and the
Trustee. This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of notes of the Issuer designated as its 5.375% Senior Notes due 2025. The Issuer shall be entitled to issue Additional Notes pursuant to Sections 2.01 and 4.09 of the Indenture. The terms of the
Notes include those stated in the Indenture. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture for a statement of such terms. To the extent

 (d) On or prior to May 1, 2022, the Issuer may, at its option and on
one or more occasions, redeem up to 40.0% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under the Indenture at a redemption price equal to 105.375% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes redeemed, with an amount not to exceed the net

 transaction or otherwise, may be given prior to the completion thereof, and any such redemption or notice may, at the
Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of the related Equity Offering or other transaction. The Issuer may redeem the Notes pursuant to one or more of the relevant
provisions in the Indenture, and a single notice of redemption may be delivered with respect to redemptions made pursuant to different provisions. Any such notice may provide that redemptions made pursuant to different provisions will have different
Redemption Dates and, with respect to redemptions that occur on the same date, may specify the order in which such redemptions are deemed to occur. In addition, if such redemption is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such
notice shall state that, in the Issuer’s discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any
or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date so delayed. In addition, the Issuer may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and performance of the Issuer’s
obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person. The Issuer and its Affiliates may acquire the Notes by means other than a redemption pursuant to this paragraph 5, whether by tender offer, open market purchases,
negotiated transactions or otherwise.

Indenture, any notice of redemption shall be delivered electronically or mailed by first-class mail, postage prepaid, at least 10 but (except as set forth in paragraph 5(f) above and Section 3.07(i) of the Indenture) not more than 60 days before the
Redemption Date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at such Holder’s registered address or otherwise in accordance with the Applicable Procedures, except that redemption notices may be delivered electronically or mailed more than 60

no Notes of $2,000 or less can be redeemed in part, except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder shall be redeemed, even if not in a principal amount of at least $2,000.
On and after the Redemption Date, subject to satisfaction of any conditions precedent specified in the applicable notice of redemption, interest ceases to accrue on this Note or portions thereof called for redemption.

the Issuer may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed
portion of any Note being redeemed in part; provided that new Notes will only be issued in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess of $2,000. Also, the Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of
any Notes for a period of 15 days before the mailing of a notice of redemption of Notes to be redeemed.

	A-1-7
	  

	 

 

 11. Defaults and Remedies. 
  

(a) The Events of Default relating to the Notes are defined in Section 6.01 of the Indenture. If any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default of the type specified in
clause (vi) or (vii) of Section 6.01(a) of the Indenture) occurs and is continuing under the Indenture with respect to the Notes, the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 30.0% in aggregate principal amount of all of the then outstanding Notes
may, by notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, in either case specifying in such notice the respective Event of Default and that such notice is a “notice of acceleration”, declare the principal, premium, if any, interest and any other
monetary obligations on all the then outstanding Notes to be due and payable immediately. Upon the effectiveness of such declaration, such principal of and premium, if any, and interest will be due and payable immediately. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising under clause (vi) or (vii) of Section 6.01(a) of the Indenture, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture, the
Notes or the Guarantees except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of all the Notes then outstanding may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power with
respect to the Notes. 
  
 (b) The Trustee may withhold from the Holders notice of any continuing Default, except a Default
relating to the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. In addition, subject to Section 6.05 of the Indenture, the Trustee will have no obligation to accelerate the Notes if
in the judgment of the Trustee acceleration is not in the interests of the Holders of all of the Notes. 
  
 (c) Holders of
a majority in aggregate principal amount of all the Notes then outstanding, by notice to the Trustee (with a copy to the Issuer, provided that any waiver or rescission under Section 6.04 of the Indenture shall be valid and binding
notwithstanding the failure to provide a copy of such notice to the Issuer) may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default and its consequences under the Indenture (except a continuing Default in the payment of interest
on, premium, if any, or the principal of any Note held by a non-consenting Holder) (including in connection with an Asset Sale Offer or a Change of Control Offer) and rescind any acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences under the
Indenture (except if such rescission would conflict with any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist with respect to the Notes, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be
deemed to have been cured with respect to the Notes for every purpose of the Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

 
 (d) The Issuer is required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the
Issuer shall promptly (which shall be no more than 20 Business Days after becoming aware of such Default) deliver to the Trustee by registered or certified mail or by facsimile transmission an Officer’s Certificate specifying such event and
what action the Issuer proposes to take with respect thereto.
  
 12. Guarantees. The Issuer’s obligations
under the Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by the Guarantors from time to time party to the Indenture. 
  

13. Authentication. This Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose until authenticated by the manual
signature of the Trustee.
  
 14. [Reserved]
  

15. Governing Law. THIS NOTE, AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO THIS NOTE, WILL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
  
 16. CUSIP Numbers and ISINs. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the
Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Issuer has caused CUSIP numbers and ISINs to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers and ISINs in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No 

 
 
	 
	A-1-8
	  

	 

  
 representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice
of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

 11. Defaults and Remedies. 
  

(a) The Events of Default relating to the Notes are defined in Section 6.01 of the Indenture. If any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default of the type specified in
clause (vi) or (vii) of Section 6.01(a) of the Indenture) occurs and is continuing under the Indenture with respect to the Notes, the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 30.0% in aggregate principal amount of all of the then outstanding Notes
may, by notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, in either case specifying in such notice the respective Event of Default and that such notice is a “notice of acceleration”, declare the principal, premium, if any, interest and any other
monetary obligations on all the then outstanding Notes to be due and payable immediately. Upon the effectiveness of such declaration, such principal of and premium, if any, and interest will be due and payable immediately. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising under clause (vi) or (vii) of Section 6.01(a) of the Indenture, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture, the
Notes or the Guarantees except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of all the Notes then outstanding may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power with
respect to the Notes. 
  
 (b) The Trustee may withhold from the Holders notice of any continuing Default, except a Default
relating to the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. In addition, subject to Section 6.05 of the Indenture, the Trustee will have no obligation to accelerate the Notes if
in the judgment of the Trustee acceleration is not in the interests of the Holders of all of the Notes. 
  
 (c) Holders of
a majority in aggregate principal amount of all the Notes then outstanding, by notice to the Trustee (with a copy to the Issuer, provided that any waiver or rescission under Section 6.04 of the Indenture shall be valid and binding
notwithstanding the failure to provide a copy of such notice to the Issuer) may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default and its consequences under the Indenture (except a continuing Default in the payment of interest
on, premium, if any, or the principal of any Note held by a non-consenting Holder) (including in connection with an Asset Sale Offer or a Change of Control Offer) and rescind any acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences under the
Indenture (except if such rescission would conflict with any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist with respect to the Notes, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be
deemed to have been cured with respect to the Notes for every purpose of the Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

 
 (d) The Issuer is required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the
Issuer shall promptly (which shall be no more than 20 Business Days after becoming aware of such Default) deliver to the Trustee by registered or certified mail or by facsimile transmission an Officer’s Certificate specifying such event and
what action the Issuer proposes to take with respect thereto.
  
 12. Guarantees. The Issuer’s obligations
under the Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by the Guarantors from time to time party to the Indenture. 
  

13. Authentication. This Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose until authenticated by the manual
signature of the Trustee.
  
 14. [Reserved]
  

15. Governing Law. THIS NOTE, AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO THIS NOTE, WILL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
  
 16. CUSIP Numbers and ISINs. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the
Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Issuer has caused CUSIP numbers and ISINs to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers and ISINs in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No

 representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice
of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.
