“Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio” means the ratio of (A) Consolidated EBITDA of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries during the most recent four consecutive full fiscal quarters for which financial statements are available (the “Four-Quarter Period”) ending on or prior to the date of the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (the “Transaction Date”) to (B) Consolidated Fixed Charges of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries for the Four-Quarter Period.

For purposes of this definition, Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Fixed Charges shall be calculated after giving effect on a pro forma basis for the period of such calculation to the incurrence of any Indebtedness or the issuance of any Preferred Stock of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (and the application of the proceeds thereof) and any repayment, retirement or extinguishment of Indebtedness or redemption of other Preferred Stock (and the application of the proceeds therefrom) (other than the incurrence or repayment of Indebtedness in the ordinary course of business for working capital purposes pursuant to any revolving credit arrangement unless such Indebtedness has been permanently repaid and has not been replaced) occurring during the Four-Quarter Period or at any time subsequent to the last day of the Four-Quarter Period and on or prior to the Transaction Date, as if such incurrence, repayment, retirement, extinguishment, issuance or redemption, as the case may be (and the application of the proceeds thereof), occurred on the first day of the Four-Quarter Period.

For purposes of making the computation referred to above, investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, amalgamations, consolidations and disposed operations (as determined in accordance with GAAP) and operational changes that have been made by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries during the Four‑Quarter Period or subsequent to such Four‑Quarter Period and on or prior to or simultaneously with the Transaction Date shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming that all such investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, amalgamations, consolidations, disposed operations and operational changes (and the change in any associated fixed charge obligations and the change in Consolidated EBITDA resulting therefrom) had occurred on the first day of the Four‑Quarter Period. If since the beginning of such period any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged or amalgamated with or into the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries since the beginning of such period shall have made any investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, amalgamation, consolidation, disposed operation or operational change that would have required adjustment pursuant to this definition, then the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect thereto for such Four-Quarter Period as if such investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, amalgamation, consolidation, disposed operation or operational change had occurred at the beginning of the Four-Quarter Period; provided that, notwithstanding any classification under GAAP of any Person or business in respect of which a definitive agreement for the disposition thereof has been entered into as discontinued operations, such transaction shall not be treated as a disposition or a discontinued operation for purposes of the calculation of the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio until such transaction shall have been consummated.

For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to a transaction, the pro forma calculations shall be made in good faith by a responsible officer of the Issuer (and may include, for the avoidance of doubt and without duplication, cost savings, operating expense reductions and synergies resulting from any asset sale or other disposition or such investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, amalgamation or consolidation or discontinued operation which is being given pro forma effect that have been or are expected to be realized, in each case any such adjustments may be incremental to (but not duplicative of) pro forma adjustments made pursuant to clause (7) of the definition of “Consolidated EBITDA” and calculated in accordance with and subject to the limitations set forth in clause (7) of the definition of “Consolidated EBITDA”). In addition to such adjustments pro forma calculations may also include Pro Forma Cost Savings.

-14-

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 Transaction Date had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Hedging Obligations applicable to such Indebtedness with a remaining term of 12 months or longer, and in the case of any Hedging Obligation applicable to such Indebtedness with a remaining term of less than 12 months, taking into account such Hedging Obligation to the extent of its remaining term). Interest on a Capitalized Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a responsible 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 or, if lower, the maximum commitments under such revolving Credit Facility as of the Transaction Date. 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.

THE SECURITIES

Section 2.01 Amount of Notes.

The Trustee shall initially authenticate $250,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes for original issue on the Issue Date upon an Issuer Order, together with an Officer’s Certificate; provided that an Opinion of Counsel shall not be required in connection with such issuance, authentication and delivery of the Notes on the Issue Date. The Trustee shall authenticate additional Notes (“Additional Notes”) thereafter in unlimited amount for original issue upon an Issuer Order (an “Authentication Order”) in aggregate principal amount as specified in such Authentication Order. The Trustee shall also authenticate (i) replacement Notes as provided in Section 2.08, (ii) temporary Notes as provided in Section 2.11, (iii) Notes issued in connection with certain transfers and exchanges as provided in Sections 2.07, 2.16 and 2.17, (iv) Notes issued in connection with a partial redemption of the Notes as provided in Section 3.06 or a partial repurchase of a Note as provided in Sections 4.07 and 4.08 and (v) Notes exchanged as provided in Section 8.05, in each case, upon an Authentication Order in aggregate principal amount as specified in such order. Each such written order shall specify the principal amount of Notes to be authenticated and the date on which the Notes are to be authenticated. Unless the context requires otherwise, references to “Notes” for all purposes of this Indenture include any Additional Notes that are actually issued.

Section 2.02 Form and Dating; Legends.

The Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication with respect thereto shall be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A, each of which is incorporated in and forms a part of this Indenture. Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication.

The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, rule or usage to which the Issuer is subject. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Notes offered and sold to Qualified Institutional Buyers in reliance on Rule 144A (“Rule 144A Notes”), Notes offered and sold to Non-U.S. Persons in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S (“Regulation S Notes”) and all other Restricted Global Notes shall bear the Private Placement Legend. All Global Notes shall bear the Global Note Legend. Regulation S Notes shall bear the Regulation S Legend. Notes issued with original issue discount shall bear the Original Issue Discount Legend.

-54-

The terms and provisions contained in the Notes shall constitute, and are expressly made, a part of this Indenture and, to the extent applicable, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and agree to be bound thereby. If there is a conflict between the terms of the Notes and this Indenture, the terms of this Indenture shall govern.

The Notes may be presented for registration of transfer and exchange at the offices of the Registrar.

Section 2.03 Execution and Authentication.

The Notes shall be executed on behalf of the Issuer by one Officer of the Issuer. The signature of such Officer on the Notes may be manual, facsimile or electronic (including “.pdf”).

If an Officer whose signature is on a Note was an Officer at the time of such execution but no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note, the Note shall be valid nevertheless.

No Note shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Note a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by manual, facsimile or electronic (including “.pdf”) signature, and such certificate upon any Note shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Note has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Note shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Issuer, and the Issuer shall deliver such Note to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 2.12, for all purposes of this Indenture such Note shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

The Trustee may appoint one or more authenticating agents reasonably acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate the Notes. Unless otherwise provided in the appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate the 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 the Issuer and Affiliates of the Issuer. Each Paying Agent is designated as an authenticating agent for purposes of this Indenture.

Notes shall be issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

-55-

Section 2.04 Registrar and Paying Agent.

The Issuer shall maintain (a) an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the “Registrar”), (b) an office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, the State of New York or in the city in the United States in which the Trustee’s Corporate Trust Office is located, where Notes may be presented for payment (the “Paying Agent”) and (c) an office or agency where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer, if any, in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Registrar shall provide a copy of such register from time to time upon request of the Issuer. The Issuer may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional Paying Agents. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrars. The term “Paying Agents” means the Paying Agent and any additional Paying Agents. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice. The Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiaries may act as Registrar or a Paying Agent.

The Issuer shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Agent that is not a party to this Indenture. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such Agent. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of any such Agent. If the Issuer fails to maintain a Registrar or any required co-registrar or Paying Agent, or fails to give the foregoing notice, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation in accordance with Section 7.07.

The Issuer initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar, Paying Agent and Depository Custodian.

The Issuer initially appoints The Depository Trust Company to act as Depository with respect to the Global Notes. The Issuer may change the Depository at any time without notice to any Holder, but the Issuer will notify the Trustee of the name and address of any new Depository.

The Issuer shall be responsible for making calculations called for under the Notes, including but not limited to determination of redemption price, premium, if any, and any additional amounts or other amounts payable on the Notes. The Issuer will make the calculations in good faith and, absent manifest error, its calculations will be final and binding on the Holders. The Issuer will provide a schedule of its calculations to the Trustee when reasonably requested by the Trustee, and the Trustee is entitled to rely conclusively on the accuracy of the Issuer’s calculations without independent verification. The Trustee shall forward the Issuer’s calculations referred to above in this paragraph to any Holder upon the written request of such Holder.

Section 2.05 Paying Agent To Hold Money in Trust.

The Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of the Noteholders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of or premium or interest on the Notes (whether such money has been paid to it by the Issuer, one or more of the Guarantors or any other obligor on the Notes), and the Issuer and the Paying Agent shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Issuer (or any other obligor on the Notes) in making any such payment. Money held in trust by a Paying Agent need not be segregated except as required by law and in no event shall a Paying Agent be liable for any interest on any money received by it hereunder. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and account for any funds disbursed and the Trustee may at any time during the continuance of any Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(1) or (2), upon written request to a Paying Agent, require such Paying Agent to pay forthwith all money so held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed. Upon making such payment, such Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the Trustee.

Section 2.06 Noteholder 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 the Noteholders. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee at least two Business Days before each Interest Payment Date, and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Noteholders.

Section 2.07 Transfer and Exchange.

Subject to Sections 2.16 and 2.17, when Notes are presented to the Registrar with a request from the Holder of such Notes to register a transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Notes of other authorized denominations, the Registrar shall register the transfer as requested. Every Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorneys duly authorized in writing. To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Issuer shall issue and execute and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.01, the Trustee shall authenticate new Notes (and the Guarantors shall execute the Guarantees thereon) evidencing such transfer or exchange at the Registrar’s request. No service charge shall be made to the Noteholder for any registration of transfer or exchange. The Issuer or the Trustee may require from the Noteholder payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer taxes or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation to a transfer or exchange, but this provision shall not apply to any exchange pursuant to Section 2.11, 3.06, 4.07, 4.08 or 8.05 (in which events the Issuer shall be responsible for the payment of such taxes). The Registrar shall not be required to exchange or register a transfer of any Note for a period of 15 days immediately preceding the mailing of notice of redemption of Notes to be redeemed or of any Note selected, called or being called for redemption except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.

-57-

Any Holder of a Global Note shall, by acceptance of such Global Note, agree that transfers of the beneficial interests in such Global Note may be effected only through a book entry system maintained by the Holder of such Global Note (or its agent), and that ownership of a beneficial interest in the Global Note shall be required to be reflected in a book entry. By its acceptance of any Note bearing the Private Placement Legend, each Holder of such Note acknowledges the restrictions on transfer of such Note set forth in this Indenture and in the Private Placement Legend and agrees that it will transfer such Note only as provided in this Indenture.

Section 2.08 Replacement Notes.

If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Registrar or the Trustee, or if the Holder of a Note claims that the Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Issuer shall issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.01, the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note (and the Guarantors shall execute the Guarantees thereon) if the Holder of such Note furnishes to the Issuer and the Trustee evidence reasonably acceptable to them of the ownership and the destruction, loss or theft of such Note and if the requirements of Section 8‑405 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code as in effect on the date of this Indenture are met. If required by the Trustee or the Issuer, an indemnity bond shall be posted, sufficient in the judgment of all to protect the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee, the Registrar and any Paying Agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if such Note is replaced. The Issuer may charge such Holder for the Issuer’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in replacing such Note and the Trustee may charge the Issuer for the Trustee’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements) in replacing such Note and may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, assessment, fee or other charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith. Every replacement Note shall constitute a contractual obligation of the Issuer. The provisions of this Section 2.08 are exclusive and will preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of lost, destroyed, mutilated or wrongfully taken Notes.

Section 2.09 Outstanding Notes.

The Notes outstanding at any time are all Notes that have been authenticated by the Trustee except for (a) those canceled by or on behalf of the Trustee, (b) those accepted by the Trustee for cancellation, (c) those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, (d) to the extent set forth in Sections 9.01, 9.02 and 9.03, on or after the date on which the conditions set forth in Section 9.01, 9.02 or 9.03 have been satisfied, those Notes theretofore authenticated by the Trustee hereunder and (e) those described in this Section 2.09 as not outstanding. Subject to Section 2.10, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or one of its Affiliates holds the Note.

-58-

If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.08, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to the Trustee and the Issuer that the replaced Note is held by a bona fide purchaser in whose hands such Note is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer.

If a Paying Agent holds, in its capacity as such, on any Maturity Date, Redemption Date or purchase date, U.S. Dollars sufficient to pay all accrued and unpaid interest and principal with respect to the Notes payable on that date and is not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders thereof pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, then on and after that date such Notes shall cease to be outstanding and interest on them shall cease to accrue.

Section 2.10 Treasury Notes.

In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any declaration of acceleration or notice of default or direction, waiver or consent or any amendment, modification or other change to this Indenture, Notes owned by the Issuer or any other Affiliate of the Issuer shall be disregarded as though they were not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent or any amendment, modification or other change to this Indenture, only Notes as to which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actually received an Officer’s Certificate stating that such Notes are so owned shall be so disregarded. Notes so owned which have been pledged in good faith shall not be disregarded if the pledgee established to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right so to act with respect to the Notes and that the pledgee is not the Issuer, a Guarantor, any other obligor on the Notes or any of their respective Affiliates.

Section 2.11 Temporary Notes.

Until definitive Notes are prepared and ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.01, the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of definitive Notes but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Notes. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.01, the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes. Until such exchange, temporary Notes shall be entitled to the same rights, benefits and privileges as definitive Notes.

-59-

Section 2.12 Cancellation.

The Issuer at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall dispose of such canceled Notes in its customary manner. The Issuer may not reissue or resell or issue new Notes to replace Notes that the Issuer has redeemed or paid, or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

Section 2.13 Defaulted Interest.

If the Issuer defaults on a payment of interest on the Notes, the Issuer shall pay the defaulted interest then borne by the Notes plus (to the extent permitted by law) any interest payable on the defaulted interest, in accordance with the terms hereof, to the Persons who are Holders thereof on a subsequent special record date, which date shall be at least five Business Days prior to the payment date. If such default continues for thirty (30) days, the Issuer shall fix such special record date and payment date in a manner satisfactory to the Trustee. At least 10 days before 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 to each affected Noteholder a notice that states the special record date, the payment date and the amount of defaulted interest, and interest payable on defaulted interest, if any, to be paid. The Issuer may make payment of any defaulted interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements (if applicable) of any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed and, upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after written notice given by the Issuer to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this sentence, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee. If the Issuer elects for the Trustee to send such notice to the Holders then the Issuer shall provide such notice to the Trustee at least five (5) days (or such shorter time as may be agreed by the Trustee in its discretion) before such notice is required to be mailed to the Holders.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any interest which is paid prior to the expiration of the 30-day period set forth in Section 6.01(1) shall be paid to Holders as of the record date for the Interest Payment Date for which interest has not been paid.

Section 2.14 CUSIP and ISIN Numbers.

The Issuer in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP” and “ISIN” numbers, and if so used, such CUSIP and ISIN numbers shall be included in notices as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP or ISIN numbers printed in the notice or on the Notes, that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such notice shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such CUSIP or ISIN numbers. The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee, in writing, of any such CUSIP or ISIN number used by the Issuer in connection with the issuance of the

-60-

Notes and of any change in any such CUSIP or ISIN number. In the case of any Additional Notes that are not fungible with the Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such Additional Notes will have a separate CUSIP number and ISIN number from the Notes.

Section 2.15 Deposit of Moneys.

Prior to noon, New York City time, on each Interest Payment Date and Maturity Date, the Issuer shall have deposited with the Paying Agent in immediately available funds U.S. Dollars sufficient to make cash payments, if any, due on such Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date, as the case may be, in a timely manner which permits such Paying Agents to remit payment to the Holders on such Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date, as the case may be. The principal and interest on Global Notes shall be payable to the Depository or its nominee, as the case may be, as the sole registered owner and the sole Holder of the Global Notes represented thereby. The principal and interest on Physical Notes shall be payable, either in person, by wire transfer or by mail, at the office of the Paying Agent. Final payment of principal on the Maturity Date will only be made by the Trustee upon surrender of the related Note to the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office.

Section 2.16 Book-Entry Provisions for Global Notes.

(a) Rule 144A Notes initially shall be represented by one or more Notes in registered, global form without interest coupons (collectively, the “Rule 144A Global Note”). Regulation S Notes initially shall be represented by one or more Notes in registered, global form without interest coupons (collectively, the “Regulation S Global Note”). The term “Global Notes” means the Rule 144A Global Note and the Regulation S Global Note. The Global Notes shall bear the Global Note Legend. The Global Notes initially shall (i) be registered in the name of the Depository or the nominee of such Depository, in each case, for credit to an account of an Agent Member, (ii) be delivered to the Trustee as custodian for such Depository and (iii) bear the Private Placement Legend.

Members of, or direct or indirect participants in, the Depository (“Agent Members”) shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the Depository or under the Global Notes. The Depository may be treated by the Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee as the absolute owner of the Global Notes for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Issuer, the Trustee or any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depository or impair, as between the Depository and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a Holder of any Note. None of the Issuer, the Trustee, the Paying Agent nor the Registrar shall have any responsibility or liability for any acts or omissions of the Depository with respect to such Global Note, for the records of the Depository, including records in respect of the beneficial owners of any such Global Note, for any transactions between the Depository and any Agent Member or between or among the Depository, any such Agent Member and/or any Holder or beneficial owner of such Global Note, or for any transfers of beneficial interests in any such Global Note.

-61-

(b) Transfers of Global Notes shall be limited to transfer in whole, but not in part, to the Depository, its successors or their respective nominees. Interests of beneficial owners in the Global Notes may be transferred or exchanged for Physical Notes only in accordance with the applicable rules and procedures of the Depository and the provisions of Section 2.17. In addition, a Global Note shall be exchangeable for Physical Notes (i) if requested by a holder of such interests upon receipt by the Trustee of written instructions from the Depository or its nominee on behalf of any beneficial owner and in accordance with the rules and procedures of the Depository and provisions of this Section 2.16 or (ii) if the Depository notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depository for such Global Note and the Issuer thereupon fail to appoint a successor depository within 120 days or (iii) if the Depository has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act or (iv) if there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default with respect to such Global Note and the Depository has requested such exchange. In all cases, Physical Notes delivered in exchange for any Global Note or beneficial interests therein shall be registered in the names, and issued in any approved denominations, requested by or on behalf of the Depository in accordance with its customary procedures.

(c) In connection with the transfer of a Global Note as an entirety to beneficial owners pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section 2.16, such Global Note shall be deemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Issuer shall execute and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.01, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, to each beneficial owner identified by the Depository in writing in exchange for its beneficial interest in such Global Note, an equal aggregate principal amount of Physical Notes of authorized denominations.

(d) Any Restricted Physical Note delivered in exchange for an interest in a Global Note pursuant to Section 2.17 shall, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.17, bear the Private Placement Legend.

(e) The Holder of any Global Note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Agent Members and Persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Notes.

Section 2.17 Transfer and Exchange of Notes.

(a) Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes. A Global Note may not be transferred as a whole except as set forth in Section 2.16(b).

Global Notes also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in part, as provided in Sections 2.08 and 2.11. Beneficial interests in a Global Note may be transferred and exchanged as provided in Section 2.17(b) or 2.17(f).

-62-

(b) Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in Global Notes. The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in the Global Notes shall be effected through the Depository, in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture and the applicable rules and procedures of the Depository. Beneficial interests in Restricted Global Notes shall be subject to restrictions on transfer comparable to those set forth herein to the extent required by the Securities Act. Beneficial interests in Global Notes shall be transferred or exchanged only for beneficial interests in Global Notes. Transfers and exchanges of beneficial interests in the Global Notes also shall require compliance with either subparagraph (i) or (ii) below, as applicable, as well as one or more of the other following subparagraphs, as applicable:

(i) Transfer of Beneficial Interests in the Same Global Note. Beneficial interests in any Restricted Global Note may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the same Restricted Global Note in accordance with the transfer restrictions set forth in the Private Placement Legend; provided, however, that prior to the 40th day after the later of the commencement of the offering of the Notes represented by a Regulation S Global Note and the issue date of such Notes (such period through and including such 40th day, the “Restricted Period”), transfers of beneficial interests in a Regulation S Global Note may not be made to a U.S. Person or for the account or benefit of a U.S. Person (other than an Initial Purchaser). A beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note. No written orders or instructions shall be required to be delivered to the Registrar to effect the transfers described in this Section 2.17(b)(i).

(ii) All Other Transfers and Exchanges of Beneficial Interests in Global Notes. In connection with all transfers and exchanges of beneficial interests in any Global Note that is not subject to Section 2.17(b)(i), the transferor of such beneficial interest must deliver to the Registrar (1) a written order from an Agent Member given to the Depository in accordance with the applicable rules and procedures of the Depository directing the Depository to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in another Global Note in an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged and (2) instructions given in accordance with the applicable rules and procedures of the Depository containing information regarding the Agent Member account to be credited with such increase. Upon satisfaction of all of the requirements for transfer or exchange of beneficial interests in Global Notes contained in this Indenture and the Notes, the Trustee shall adjust the principal amount of the relevant Global Note(s) pursuant to Section 2.17(f).

-63-

(iii) Transfer of Beneficial Interests to Another Restricted Global Note. A beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Note may be transferred to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Restricted Global Note if the transfer complies with the requirements of Section 2.17(b)(ii) above and the Registrar receives the following:

(A) if the transferee will take delivery in the form of a beneficial interest in a Rule 144A Global Note, then the transferor must deliver a certificate in the form of Exhibit F, including the certifications in item (1) thereof; and

(B) if the transferee will take delivery in the form of a beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Note, then the transferor must deliver a certificate in the form of Exhibit F, including the certifications in item (2) thereof.

A beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Note may be exchanged by any holder thereof for a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note or transferred to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note if the exchange or transfer complies with the requirements of Section 2.17(b)(ii) above and the Registrar receives the following:

and, in each such case, an Opinion of Counsel in form reasonably acceptable to the Registrar to the effect that such exchange or transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act and that the restrictions on transfer contained herein and in the Private Placement Legend are no longer required in order to maintain compliance with the Securities Act. If any such transfer or exchange is effected pursuant to this subparagraph (iv) at a time when an Unrestricted Global Note has not yet been issued, the Issuer shall issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.01, the Trustee shall authenticate one or more Unrestricted Global Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of beneficial interests transferred or exchanged pursuant to this subparagraph (iv).

-64-

Upon satisfaction of the conditions of this subparagraph (ii), the Trustee shall cancel the Restricted Physical Notes and increase or cause to be increased the aggregate principal amount of the Unrestricted Global Note.

Upon receipt of a request for such an exchange or transfer, the Trustee shall cancel the applicable Unrestricted Physical Note and increase or cause to be increased the aggregate principal amount of one of the Unrestricted Global Notes.

and, in each such case, an Opinion of Counsel in form reasonably acceptable to the Issuer to the effect that such exchange or transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act and that the restrictions on transfer contained herein and in the Private Placement Legend are no longer required in order to maintain compliance with the Securities Act.

(iii) Unrestricted Physical Notes to Unrestricted Physical Notes. A Holder of an Unrestricted Physical Note may transfer such Unrestricted Physical Notes to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of an Unrestricted Physical Note at any time. Upon receipt of a request to register such a transfer, the Registrar shall register the Unrestricted Physical Notes pursuant to the instructions from the Holder thereof.

(iv) Unrestricted Physical Notes to Restricted Physical Notes. An Unrestricted Physical Note cannot be exchanged for, or transferred to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of, a Restricted Physical Note.

-68-

Note has been redeemed, repurchased or canceled in whole and not in part, each such Global Note shall be returned to or retained and canceled by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.12. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note or for Physical Notes, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note shall be reduced accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depository at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note, such other Global Note shall be increased accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depository at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such increase.

(g) Private Placement Legend. Upon the registration of transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes not bearing the Private Placement Legend, the Registrar shall deliver Notes that do not bear the Private Placement Legend.

(h) General. All Global Notes and Physical Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Notes or Physical 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 Physical Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

The Registrar shall retain for a period of two years copies of all letters, notices and other written communications received pursuant to Section 2.16 or this Section 2.17.

None of the Issuer, the Trustee, Paying Agent nor any Agent of the Issuer shall have any responsibility or liability in any respect of the records relating to or payment made on account of beneficial interests in a Global Note, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.

Section 2.18 Computation of Interest.

Interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year, comprising twelve 30-day months and, in the case of an incomplete month, the number of actual days elapsed.

Section 2.19 Additional Amounts.

All payments made by or on behalf of any of the Guarantors under or with respect to the Notes and the Note Guarantees will be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature imposed or levied (including any penalties and interest related thereto) (“Taxes”) unless the withholding or deduction of such Taxes is then required by law or by the official interpretation or administration thereof. If, with respect to a Guarantor, any withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any Taxes imposed or levied by or on behalf of (i) any jurisdiction (other than the United States) in which such Guarantor is then incorporated, organized, engaged in business or resident for tax purposes, or any political subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein having power to tax or (ii) any jurisdiction (other than the United States) from or through which payment is made by or on behalf of such Guarantor (each, a “Tax Jurisdiction”), will at any time be required to be made from any payments made by or on behalf of such Guarantor with respect to the Notes or its Note Guarantee, including, without limitation, payments of principal, redemption price, purchase price, interest or premium, such Guarantor will pay such additional amounts (the “Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary in order that the net amounts received in respect of such payments by each Holder (including payments of Additional Amounts) after such withholding or deduction will equal the respective amounts that would have been received in respect of such payments in the absence of such withholding or deduction; provided, however, that no Additional Amounts will be payable with respect to:

(1)any Taxes that would not have been imposed but for the Holder or beneficial owner of the Notes being a citizen, resident or national of, incorporated in or carrying on a business in the relevant Tax Jurisdiction in which such Taxes are imposed, or having any other present or former connection with the relevant Tax Jurisdiction in which such Taxes are imposed other than by the mere acquisition or holding of any Note or the enforcement or receipt of payment under or in respect of any Note or any Note Guarantee;

-70-

(2)any Taxes imposed or withheld as a result of the failure of the Holder or beneficial owner of the Notes to comply with any written request, made to the Holder or beneficial owner in writing at least 90 days before any such withholding or deduction would be made, by the Issuer or any of the Guarantors to provide timely or accurate information concerning the nationality, residence or identity of such Holder or beneficial owner or to make any valid or timely declaration or similar claim or satisfy any certification information or other reporting requirements (to the extent such Holder or beneficial owner is legally eligible to do so), which is required or imposed by a statute, treaty, regulation or administrative practice of the relevant Tax Jurisdiction as a precondition to exemption from all or part of such Taxes;

(3)any Taxes that are imposed or withheld as a result of the presentation of any Note for payment (where Notes are in the form of definitive notes and presentation is required) more than 30 days after the relevant payment is first made available for payment to the Holder (except to the extent that the Holder would have been entitled to Additional Amounts had the Note been presented on the last day of such 30 day period);

(4)any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, use, transfer, personal property or similar Taxes;

(5)any Taxes which are payable otherwise than by deduction or withholding from payments made under or with respect to any Guarantee;

(6)any Taxes that were imposed with respect to any payment under or with respect to the Notes and the Note Guarantees to any Holder of a Note who is a fiduciary or partnership or Person other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment to the extent that a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or a partner of such partnership or a beneficial owner would be required to include such payment in its income under the laws of the relevant Tax Jurisdiction and would not have been entitled to receive payment of the Additional Amounts had the beneficiary, settlor, partner or beneficial owner been the Holder of such Note;

(7)any Taxes that are imposed or withheld pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code, as of the Issue Date (or any amended or successor version of such sections that is substantively comparable and not materially more onerous to comply with), any regulations promulgated thereunder, any official interpretations thereof, any intergovernmental agreement between a non-U.S. jurisdiction and the United States with respect to the foregoing or any law or regulation adopted pursuant to any such intergovernmental agreement, or any agreements entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b)(1) of the Code; or

(8) any combination of items (1) through (7) above.

-71-

In addition to the foregoing, the Dutch Guarantor will pay and indemnify the Holders for any present or future stamp, issue, registration, transfer, court or documentary taxes, or any other excise, property or similar taxes levied by The Netherlands on or in connection with the execution, delivery, registration or enforcement of the Note Guarantee provided by the Dutch Guarantor or with respect to any payment to a Holder of Notes thereunder (limited, solely in the case of taxes attributable to the receipt of any payments with respect thereto, to any such taxes that are not excluded under clauses (1) through (4) and (6) through (7) or any combination thereof).

If the Issuer or any Guarantor becomes aware that any Guarantor will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to any payment under or with respect to any Note Guarantee, the Issuer or the relevant Guarantor, as the case may be, will deliver to the Trustee on a date at least 30 days prior to the date of payment (unless the obligation to pay Additional Amounts arises after the 30th day prior to that payment date, in which case the Issuer or the relevant Guarantor shall notify the Trustee promptly thereafter) an Officer’s Certificate stating the fact that Additional Amounts will be payable and the amount estimated to be so payable. The Officer’s Certificate must also set forth any other information reasonably necessary to enable the Paying Agent to pay Additional Amounts on the relevant payment date. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely solely on such Officer’s Certificate as conclusive proof that such payments are necessary. The Issuer or the relevant Guarantor will provide the Trustee with documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee evidencing the payment of Additional Amounts.

The relevant Guarantor will make all deductions and withholding of Taxes required by law and will remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Tax authority in accordance with applicable law. The relevant Guarantor will use its reasonable efforts to obtain Tax receipts from each relevant Tax authority evidencing the payment of any Taxes so deducted or withheld. Upon written request, the relevant Guarantor will furnish to the Holders, within 60 days after the date the payment of any Taxes so deducted or withheld is made, certified copies of Tax receipts evidencing payment by the Guarantor, or if, notwithstanding such Guarantor’s efforts to obtain receipts, receipts are not obtained, other evidence of payments by such Guarantor.

Whenever this Indenture mentions the payment of amounts based on the principal amount, interest or any other amount payable under, or with respect to, any Note Guarantee, such mention shall be deemed to include the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof.

The above obligations will survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of this Indenture, any transfer by a Holder or beneficial owner of its Notes, and will apply, mutatis mutandis, to any jurisdiction in which any successor Person to any Guarantor is then incorporated, organized, engaged in business or resident for tax purposes, or any political subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein having power to tax or any jurisdiction from or through which payment is made by or on behalf of any Guarantor.

ARTICLE III.
REDEMPTION

Section 3.01 Election To Redeem; Notices to Trustee.

If the Issuer elects to redeem Notes pursuant to paragraph 5 of the Notes, at least 2 Business Days (or such shorter time period as the Trustee may agree) before notice of redemption is required to be sent or caused to be sent to Holders pursuant to Section 3.03 but not more than 65 days before the Redemption Date (except as set forth in the last paragraph of Section 3.03), the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate setting forth (a) the paragraph or subparagraph of such Note pursuant to which the redemption shall occur, (b) the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed, (c) the Redemption Date and (d) the redemption price(s) (or manner of calculation if not then known); provided that no Opinion of Counsel pursuant to Section 12.04 or otherwise shall be required in connection with the delivery of such notice of redemption or redemption.

Section 3.02 Selection by Trustee of Notes To Be Redeemed or Purchased.

If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed or purchased at any time, selection of such Notes for redemption or purchase will be made by the Trustee in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes to be redeemed or purchased are listed or, if the Notes are not so listed, on a pro rata basis (or, in the case of Global Notes, the Notes will be selected for redemption or purchase based on the Depository’s applicable procedures). Such Notes to be redeemed or purchased shall be selected, unless otherwise provided herein, not less than 10 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date or the purchase date from the outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption or purchase.

The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer in writing of the Notes selected for redemption or purchase and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption or purchase, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed or purchased. Notes and portions of Notes selected shall be in amounts of $1,000 or whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof; provided that no Notes with a principal amount of $2,000 or less shall be redeemed or purchased in part, except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed or purchased, the entire outstanding amount of Notes of such series held by such Holder, even if not a multiple of $1,000, shall be redeemed or purchased. For all purposes of this Indenture unless the context otherwise requires and except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption or purchase also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase.

-73-

If any Note is to be redeemed or purchased in part only, the notice of redemption or offer to purchase that relates to such Note shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed or purchased. With respect to Physical Notes, a new Physical Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of the original Physical Note will be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Note; provided that any new Notes will be only issued in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. On and after the Redemption Date or purchase date, interest will cease to accrue on such Notes or portions thereof called for redemption or purchase. Redemption or purchase price shall only be paid upon presentation and surrender of any such Notes to be redeemed or purchased.

Section 3.03 Notice of Redemption.

At least 10 days but, except as set forth in the last paragraph of this Section 3.03, no more than 60 days, before a Redemption Date or purchase date, the Issuer shall send, or cause to be sent, a notice of redemption electronically or by first-class mail to each Holder to be redeemed at his or her last address as the same appears on the registry books maintained by the Registrar pursuant to Section 2.06 or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of the Depository, 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 IX. Notices of redemption may be conditional.

The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed (including the CUSIP and/or ISIN numbers thereof) and shall state:


1.	the Redemption Date;


2.	the redemption price and the amount of premium (or manner of calculation if not then known), if any, and accrued and unpaid interest to be paid;

if any Note is being redeemed or purchased in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Note to be redeemed or purchased and that, with respect to Physical Notes, after the Redemption Date and upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of the original Note representing the same indebtedness to the extent not redeemed or repurchased will be issued in the name of the Holder of such Notes upon cancellation of the original Note; provided that the new Notes will be only issued in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof;

-74-


4.	the name and address of the Paying Agent;


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


6.	that unless the Issuer defaults in making the redemption payment, interest on Notes called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the Redemption Date;


7.	that paragraph or subparagraph of the Notes pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed;


8.	the aggregate principal amount of Notes that are being redeemed;


9.	any condition to such redemption; and


10.	that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP or ISIN numbers printed in the notice or on the Notes.

A notice of redemption need not set forth the exact redemption price but only the manner of calculation thereof.

At the Issuer’s written request made at least 2 Business Days prior to the date on which notice is to be given (unless a shorter notice shall be agreed to by the Trustee), together with the notice of redemption to be given, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Issuer’s name and at the Issuer’s sole expense.

Notice of any redemption of, or any offer to purchase, the Notes may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be given subject to one or more conditions precedent. In addition, if such redemption or purchase is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Issuer’s discretion, the Redemption Date or the purchase date may be delayed until such time (including more than 60 days after the date the notice of redemption or offer to purchase was mailed or delivered, including by electronic transmission) as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such redemption or purchase 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 the purchase date or by the Redemption Date or the purchase date as so delayed, or such notice or offer may be rescinded at any time in the Issuer’s discretion if the Issuer reasonably believes that any or all of such conditions will not be satisfied. In addition, the Issuer may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption or purchase price and performance of the Issuer’s obligations with respect to such redemption or offer to purchase may be performed by another Person.

-75-

Section 3.04 Effect of Notice of Redemption or Purchase.

Once a notice of redemption described in Section 3.03 is sent (including electronically) and subject to the proviso to this sentence, Notes called for redemption or purchase become due and payable on the Redemption Date or purchase date, as applicable, and at the redemption price or purchase price, as applicable, including any premium, plus interest accrued and unpaid to, but excluding, the Redemption Date or purchase date; provided, however, that any redemption or purchase and notice or offer thereof pursuant to this Indenture may, in the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent described in such notice and in which case if and/or to the extent such condition(s) precedent is/are not satisfied the Issuer shall have no obligation to redeem or purchase Notes on such Redemption Date or purchase date. The notice, if sent in a manner herein provided (including electronically), shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to give such notice or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Note designated for redemption or purchase in whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption or purchase of any other Note or portions thereof. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Notes shall be paid at the redemption price or the purchase price, as the case may be, including any premium, plus interest accrued and unpaid to, but excluding, the Redemption Date or purchase date and such Notes shall be cancelled by the Trustee; provided that if the Redemption Date or purchase date is after a regular record date and on or prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, the accrued and unpaid interest shall be payable to the Holder registered on the relevant record date; and provided, further, that if a Redemption Date or purchase date is a Legal Holiday, payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and no interest shall accrue for the period from such Redemption Date or purchase date to such succeeding Business Day. Subject to Section 3.05, on and after the Redemption Date or purchase date, as the case may be, interest shall cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption or purchase.

Section 3.05 Deposit of Redemption or Purchase Price.

On or prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time (or such later time as the Trustee may agree), on each Redemption Date or purchase date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent U.S. Dollars sufficient to pay the redemption price or purchase price of, including premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on any and all Notes to be redeemed or purchased on that date (other than Notes or portions thereof called for redemption or purchase on that date which have been delivered by the Issuer to the Trustee for cancellation). 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 or purchase price of, including premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on any and all Notes to be redeemed or purchased.

-76-

On and after any Redemption Date or purchase date, as the case may be, if money sufficient to pay the redemption price or purchase price of, including premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all Notes called for redemption or purchase shall have been made available in accordance with the immediately preceding paragraph, the Notes called for redemption or purchase will cease to accrue interest and the only right of the Holders of such Notes will be to receive payment of the redemption price or purchase price of and, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date falling on or after the Redemption Date or purchase date, as the case may be, accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes to the Redemption Date or purchase date. If any Note surrendered for redemption or purchase shall not be so paid, interest will be paid, from the Redemption Date or purchase date, as the case may be, until such redemption or purchase payment is made, on the unpaid principal of the Note and (to the extent permitted by applicable law) any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case, at the rate and in the manner provided in the Notes.

Section 3.06 Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part.

Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed or purchased in part, the Issuer shall execute and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.01, the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder thereof a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered representing the same indebtedness to the extent not redeemed or purchased; provided that each new Note will be issued in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. It is understood that, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, only an Officer’s Certificate and not an Opinion of Counsel is required for the Trustee to authenticate such new Note.

Section 3.07 Mandatory Redemption; Open Market Purchases.

Subject to Sections 4.07 and 4.08, the Issuer shall not be required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. The Issuer and its Affiliates may acquire Notes at any time and from time to time by means other than a redemption, whether by tender offer, open market purchases, negotiated transactions or otherwise, in accordance with applicable securities laws, so long as such acquisition does not otherwise violate the terms of this Indenture.

(b) The Issuer may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Issuer of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York. The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Issuer and its Subsidiaries shall be permitted to change their organizational form.

Section 4.04 Waiver of Stay, Extension or Usury Laws.

The Issuer and each of the Guarantors covenant (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that they shall not at any time insist upon, or plead (as a defense or otherwise) or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law or any usury law which would prohibit or forgive the Issuer and the Guarantors from paying all or any portion of the principal of, premium, if any, and/or interest on the Notes as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) the Issuer and the Guarantors hereby expressly waive all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that they will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

(7) that if the Issuer is redeeming less than all of the Notes, Holders whose Notes are purchased only in part will be issued new Notes in a principal amount equal to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered; provided, however, each new Note issued shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof;

(8) if such notice is sent prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control, stating that the Change of Control Offer is conditional on the occurrence of such Change of Control or such other conditions specified therein 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 as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or that such purchase 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 Change of Control Payment Date, or by the Change of Control Payment Date as so delayed; and

-81-

(9) the other instructions, as determined by the Issuer, consistent with this Section 4.07 that a Holder must follow.

-82-

(f) The Issuer will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if (1) a third party approved in writing by the Issuer makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 4.07 with respect 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 or (2) notice of redemption has been given or will be given pursuant to this Indenture as described in paragraph 5 of the Notes or as set forth in Section 9.01 prior to the date the Issuer is required to send notice of the Change of Control Offer to the Holders, unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditioned upon the consummation of such Change of Control, or such other conditions specified therein, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Change of Control Offer is made and such Change of Control Offer is otherwise made in compliance with the provisions of this Section 4.07. The Issuer’s obligation to make a Change of Control Offer shall not continue after a discharge of the Issuer, satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or defeasance from the Issuer’s obligations with respect to the Notes.

(g) 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 and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with provisions of this Section 4.07, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.07 by virtue thereof.

(h) Other than as specifically provided in this Section 4.07, any purchase pursuant to this Section 4.07 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.02, 3.05 and 3.06.

(i) The provisions of this Section 4.07 relating to the Issuer’s obligation to make a Change of Control Offer with respect to the Notes upon a Change of Control may be waived or modified with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes.

Section 4.08 Limitation on Asset Disposition.

(a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, consummate any Asset Disposition unless:

-83-

(1) the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary receives consideration at least equal to the Fair Market Value (such Fair Market Value to be determined in good faith by the Issuer on the date of contractually agreeing to such Asset Disposition) of the equity and assets subject to such Asset Disposition;

(2) except in the case of a Permitted Asset Swap, at least 75% of the consideration for such Asset Disposition received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents, Additional Assets or any combination thereof (collectively, the “Cash Consideration”); and

(3) within 540 days from the later of the date of such Asset Disposition or the receipt of the Net Available Cash from such Asset Disposition, an amount equal to 100% of the Net Available Cash from such Asset Disposition is applied by the Issuer, at its option (or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be):

(A) to the extent the property that is subject to such Asset Disposition (i) constitutes ABL Collateral, to repay or prepay ABL Debt, (ii) does not constitute Collateral, to repay any Indebtedness of a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary (other than Indebtedness owed to Holdings, the Issuer or another Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer) or (iii) repay Notes;

(B) to the extent the Issuer elects (or is required by the terms of any applicable Indebtedness), to prepay, repay, redeem or purchase any Fixed Asset Debt of the Issuer or any Guarantor, and, if the assets or property disposed of in the Asset Disposition were not Collateral, Pari Passu Indebtedness of the Issuer, or any Guarantor (other than Indebtedness referred to in clause (A) above or owed to the Issuer or another Restricted Subsidiary); provided such prepayment, repayment, redemption or purchase permanently retires, or reduces the related loan commitment (if any) (other than commitments in respect of any asset-based Credit Facility to the extent the assets sold or otherwise disposed of in connection with such Asset Disposition constituted “borrowing base assets”) for, such Fixed Asset Debt in an amount equal to the principal amount so prepaid, repaid, redeemed or purchased; provided, further, that the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary will either (i) reduce the aggregate principal amount of the Notes on an equal or ratable basis with any Fixed Asset Debt or Pari Passu Indebtedness repaid pursuant to this clause (B) by, at its option, (x) redeeming Notes as provided under paragraph 5 of the Notes and/or (y) purchasing Notes through open-market purchases or in privately negotiated transactions and/or (ii) make an offer (in accordance with the provisions set forth below for an Offer) to all Holders to purchase the Notes on an equal or ratable basis with any Fixed Asset Debt or Pari Passu Indebtedness repaid pursuant to this clause (B) (which offer shall be deemed to be an Offer for purposes hereof);

-84-

(C) to the extent the Issuer elects, to invest in the business of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries, including acquiring Additional Assets or making any other capital expenditures; provided that (x) if such investment is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock of a Person, such acquisition is the acquisition of Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary or such acquisition results in such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary and (y) to the extent the investment, assets or property are of the type that would constitute Collateral, such investment, assets or property are added as Collateral pursuant to the terms of this Indenture; provided further that this requirement shall be deemed satisfied if the Issuer by the end of such 540-day period has entered into a binding agreement under which it is contractually committed to acquire Additional Assets, make any other capital expenditures or investments and such acquisition, capital expenditure or investment is consummated within the later of the end of such 540-day period and within 180 days from the date on which such binding agreement is entered into; or

(D) any combination of the foregoing.

(b) For the purposes of this Section 4.08, the following are deemed to be Cash Consideration:

(1) the greater of the principal amount and the carrying value of any liabilities (as shown on the Issuer’s or any Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet or in the footnotes thereto, or if incurred, accrued or increased subsequent to the date of such balance sheet, such liabilities that would have been reflected on the balance sheet of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary or in the footnotes thereto if such incurrence, accrual or increase had taken place on or prior to the date of such balance sheet, as determined in good faith by the Issuer) (other than contingent liabilities) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets (or are otherwise extinguished in connection with the transactions relating to such Asset Disposition) pursuant to a written agreement which releases or indemnifies the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from such liabilities;

(2) any securities, notes or other obligations or assets received by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash or Cash Equivalents, or by their terms are required to be satisfied for cash or Cash Equivalents, in each case, within 180 days after such Asset Disposition, to the extent of the cash and Cash Equivalents received in that conversion; and

(3) any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in such Asset Disposition having an aggregate Fair Market Value, taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause that has at that time not been converted into cash or Cash Equivalents, not to exceed 5.0% of Consolidated Total Assets at the time of contractually agreeing to such Asset Disposition (with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-cash Consideration

-85-

being measured at the time of contractually agreeing to the related Asset Disposition and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value).

(c) The amount of Net Available Cash not applied or invested as provided above will constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $25.0 million, the Issuer shall make an offer to purchase Notes (an “Offer”), and, if required or permitted by the terms of such Indebtedness, other Fixed Asset Debt and/or other Pari Passu Indebtedness within twenty Business Days thereof, and shall purchase the aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) of Notes tendered pursuant to an Offer, Fixed Asset Debt and/or other Pari Passu Indebtedness that requires the purchase, prepayment or redemption of such Indebtedness that is, in the case of the Notes only, equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof, that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at a purchase price, in the case of the Notes only, of 100% of their principal amount without premium, plus accrued but unpaid interest to but excluding, the purchase date (or, in respect of such Fixed Asset Debt or other Pari Passu Indebtedness, such lesser price, if any, as may be provided for by the terms of such Fixed Asset Debt or Pari Passu Indebtedness) in accordance with the procedures (including prorating in the event of oversubscription) set forth in this Indenture and the terms of such other Fixed Asset Debt or Pari Passu Indebtedness. The Issuer may satisfy the foregoing obligation with respect to such Excess Proceeds from an Asset Disposition by making an Offer in advance of being required to do so by this Indenture (an “Advance Offer”) with respect to all or part of the available Excess Proceeds (the “Advance Portion”).

(d) If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Offer and the contemporaneous offer with respect to any other Fixed Asset Debt or Pari Passu Indebtedness contemplated above, the Issuer may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) of Notes, Fixed Asset Debt and/or Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered pursuant to an Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds (or in the case of an Advance Offer, the Advance Portion), the Issuer shall allocate the Excess Proceeds between the Notes, such Fixed Asset Debt and/or such Pari Passu Indebtedness on a pro rata basis but with such adjustments as necessary so that no Notes, Fixed Asset Debt or Pari Passu Indebtedness, as the case may be, will be repurchased in an unauthorized denomination and will select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis but in denominations of $1,000 principal amount or integral multiples thereof. The remainder of the Excess Proceeds allocable to the other Fixed Asset Debt or Pari Passu Indebtedness will be repurchased as provided pursuant to the terms of such Indebtedness. Upon completion of such an Offer to purchase, Excess Proceeds will be deemed to be reset to zero (regardless of whether there are any remaining Excess Proceeds upon such completion) and in the case of an Advance Offer, the Advance Portion shall be excluded in subsequent calculations of Excess Proceeds.

-86-

(e) Pending application of an amount equal to the Net Available Cash pursuant to this Section 4.08, such Net Available Cash may be applied to temporarily reduce revolving credit Indebtedness (including under the ABL Credit Facility) or in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture.

(f) The Issuer shall comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to an Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.08, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.08 by virtue of its compliance with such securities laws or regulations.

(g) Other than as specifically provided in this Section 4.08, any purchase pursuant to this Section 4.08 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.02, 3.05 and 3.06.

(h) The provision of this Section 4.08 relating to the Issuer’s obligation to make an offer to repurchase the Notes as a result of an Asset Disposition may be waived or modified with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Notes.

Section 4.09 Limitation on Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock.

(a) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, Incur, directly or indirectly, any Indebtedness or issue any shares of Disqualified Stock and the Issuer will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to issue any shares of Preferred Stock; provided, however, that the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries will be entitled to Incur Indebtedness or issue shares of Disqualified Stock and any Restricted Subsidiary may issue shares of Preferred Stock if, on the date of such Incurrence and after giving effect thereto on a pro forma basis, the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio equals or exceeds 2:00 to 1.00; provided, further, that the aggregate amount of Indebtedness that may be Incurred and Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock that may be issued pursuant to the foregoing by Restricted Subsidiaries that are not Guarantors shall not exceed the greater of (x) $105.0 million and (y) 4.25% of Consolidated Total Assets at the time of Incurrence, at any one time outstanding.

(2) Indebtedness owed to and held by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary or shares of Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary issued to the Issuer or another Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that (A) any subsequent issuance or transfer of any Capital Stock which results in any such Restricted Subsidiary ceasing to be a Restricted Subsidiary or any subsequent transfer of such Indebtedness or Preferred Stock (other than to the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary) shall be deemed, in each case, to constitute the Incurrence of such Indebtedness by the obligor thereon not permitted pursuant to this clause (2), (B) if the Issuer is the obligor on such Indebtedness and a Subsidiary Guarantor is not the obligee thereon, such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all obligations with respect to the Notes and (C) if a Subsidiary Guarantor is the obligor on such Indebtedness and the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor is not the obligee thereon, such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor with respect to its Subsidiary Guarantee related to the Notes;

(3) the Notes and any Subsidiary Guarantee but excluding any Additional Notes;

-88-

(4) Indebtedness outstanding on the Issue Date (other than Indebtedness described in clauses (1), (2) or (3) of this Section 4.09(b));

(e) 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 or first Incurred (whichever yields the lower U.S. dollar-equivalent), 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 (i) the principal amount of such Indebtedness being Refinanced plus (ii) the aggregate amount of fees, defeasance costs, underwriting discounts, accrued and unpaid interest, premiums and other costs and expenses incurred in connection with such Refinancing.

(f) Accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value and the payment of interest or dividends in the form of additional Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable, will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock for purposes of this Section 4.09.

(g) This Indenture will not treat (1) unsecured Indebtedness as subordinated or junior to Secured Debt merely because it is unsecured or (2) senior Indebtedness as subordinated or junior to any other senior Indebtedness merely because it has a junior priority with respect to the same collateral.

(e) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.13, a Lien securing an item of Indebtedness need not be permitted solely by one category of Permitted Lien but may be permitted in part under any combination thereof and of any other available exemption, and if a Permitted Lien meets the criteria or more than one of the exceptions described in clauses (1) through (39) of Section 4.13(b), the Issuer may, in its sole discretion, classify or reclassify the Permitted Lien (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this Section 4.13.

(2) all current reports required to be filed with the Commission on Form 8‑K under Items 1.01, 1.02, 1.03, 2.01, 2.02, 2.05, 2.06, 4.01, 4.02, 5.01 and 5.02 (other than with respect to information otherwise required or contemplated by Item 402 of Regulation S‑K) as in effect on the Issue Date if the Issuer were required to file such reports; provided, however, that no such current report will be required to include as an exhibit, or to include a summary of the terms of, any employment or compensatory arrangement agreement, plan or understanding between the Issuer (or any of its Subsidiaries) and any director, manager or executive officer, of the Issuer (or any of its Subsidiaries);

in each case, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and regulations (and, during any period in which the Issuer is not required to file reports with the Commission, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and regulations applicable to a “non‑accelerated filer”); provided, however, that (i) in no event shall such reports be required to comply with Rule 3‑10 of Regulation S‑X promulgated by the Commission or contain separate financial statements for the Issuer, the Guarantors or other Subsidiaries the shares of which are pledged to secure the Notes or any Guarantee that would be required under(a) Section 3‑09 of Regulation S‑X, (b) Section 3‑10 of Regulation S‑X or (c) Section 3‑16 of Regulation S‑X, respectively, promulgated by the Commission.

-114-

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Issuer may satisfy its obligations in this Section 4.16 with respect to financial information relating to the Issuer by furnishing financial information relating to any Parent Entity; provided that if such Parent Entity has any material assets other than its direct or indirect Equity Interests of the Issuer, the same is accompanied by selected financial metrics, which may be unaudited, that show the differences (in the Issuer’s sole discretion) between the information relating to such Parent Entity, on the one hand, and the information relating to the Issuer and its Subsidiaries on a stand-alone basis, on the other hand.

(d) The Issuer will be deemed to have furnished the reports referred to in clauses (1) and (2) of Section 4.16(a) if the Issuer or any Parent Entity has filed reports containing such information (or any such information of a Parent Entity in accordance with the immediately preceding paragraph) with the Commission. The terms of this Indenture shall not impose any duty on the Issuer under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the related Commission rules that would not otherwise be applicable to it.

(e) At any time that any of the Issuer’s Subsidiaries are Unrestricted Subsidiaries, then the quarterly and annual financial information required by clauses (1) and (2) of Section 4.16(a) will include a reasonably detailed presentation, either on the face of the financial statements or in the footnotes thereto, or in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” of the financial condition and results of operations of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries separate from the financial condition and results of operations of the Unrestricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer.

Section 4.17 Suspension of Covenants.

(a) If on any date following the Issue Date (i) the Notes have Investment Grade Ratings from both Rating Agencies, and (ii) no Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture (the occurrence of the events described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) being collectively referred to as a “Covenant Suspension Event”), then beginning on such date, the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to Sections 4.08 (but only to the extent related to properties or assets of the Issuer, its Restricted Subsidiaries and Holdings that do not constitute Collateral), 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.15 and 5.01(a)(3) hereof (collectively, the “Suspended Covenants”).

(b) Upon the occurrence of a Covenant Suspension Event (the date of such occurrence, the “Suspension Date”), the amount of Excess Proceeds from any Asset Disposition shall be reset at zero. In the event that the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to the Suspended Covenants for any period of time as a result of the foregoing, and on any subsequent date (the “Reversion Date”) one or both of the Rating Agencies withdraw their Investment Grade Rating or downgrade the rating assigned to the Notes below an Investment Grade Rating, then the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries will thereafter again be subject to the Suspended Covenants with respect to future events. The period of time between (and including) the Suspension Date and the Reversion Date (but excluding the Reversion Date) is referred to in this description as the “Suspension Period.”

(c) In the event of any such reinstatement, no action taken or omitted to be taken by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries prior to such reinstatement will give rise to a Default or Event of Default with respect to Notes. On the Reversion Date, all Indebtedness Incurred during the Suspension Period will be classified to have been Incurred pursuant to Section 4.09(b)(4). With respect to Restricted Payments made on or after the Reversion Date, the amount of Restricted Payments made will be calculated as though Section 4.10 had been in effect prior to, but not during, the Suspension Period. In addition, for purposes of Section 4.12, all agreements and arrangements entered into by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary with an Affiliate of Holdings during the Suspension Period prior to such Reversion Date will be deemed to have been entered pursuant to Section 4.12(b)(8), and for purposes of Section 4.11, all contracts entered into during the Suspension Period prior to such Reversion Date that contain any of the restrictions contemplated by such covenant will be deemed to have been entered pursuant to clause (1)(a) of the first paragraph of Section 4.11. During any Suspension Period, the Board of Directors may not designate any of the Issuer’s Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries pursuant to this Indenture.

(d) In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, the continued existence after any reinstitution of the foregoing covenants of facts and circumstances or obligations arising from transactions that occurred during the Suspension Period shall not constitute a breach of any covenant set forth in this Indenture or cause a Default or an Event of Default thereunder. Following a Reversion Date, the Issuer and its Subsidiaries will be permitted, without causing a Default or Event of Default, to honor, comply with or otherwise perform any contractual commitments or obligations arising during the Suspension Period and to consummate the transactions thereby; provided that such

-116-

contractual commitments or obligations were entered into during the Suspension Period and not in contemplation of a reversion of the Suspended Covenants; provided further that, to the extent any such commitment or obligation results in the making of a Restricted Payment, such Restricted Payment shall be made under the Restricted Payments Basket or under the second paragraph of Section 4.10 and, if not permitted by any such provisions, such Restricted Payment shall be deemed permitted under the Restricted Payments Basket and shall be deducted for purposes of calculating the amount pursuant to the Restricted Payments Basket (which may not be less than zero).

(e) Upon the Reversion Date, the obligations to grant Note Guarantees pursuant to Section 4.15 will be reinstated (and the Reversion Date will be deemed to be the date on which any Subsidiary was acquired or created during the Suspension Period).

(f) The Issuer, in an Officer’s Certificate, shall provide the Trustee notice of any Suspension Date or Reversion Date. The Trustee will have no obligation to (i) independently determine or verify if such events have occurred, (ii) make any determination regarding the impact of actions taken during the Suspension Period on the Issuer’s future compliance with their covenants or (iii) notify the Holders of a Suspension Date or Reversion Date. The Trustee may deliver a copy of any such Officer’s Certificate to the Holders upon request.

(b) the Issuer or any Guarantor shall assert in writing that any security interest under any Notes Security Document is invalid or unenforceable.

Section 6.02 Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission.

If any Event of Default under this Indenture occurs and is continuing, either the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued but unpaid interest, on all of the outstanding Notes to be due and payable by notice in writing to the Issuer and the Trustee, in the case of notice by Holders, specifying the respective Event of Default and that it is a “notice of acceleration” and the same shall become immediately due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising under Section 6.01(7) with respect to the Issuer, the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued but unpaid interest, on all of the outstanding Notes shall become due and payable without further action or notice.

-122-

If the Notes are accelerated or otherwise become due prior to the Maturity Date, in each case, as a result of an Event of Default (including, but not limited to, an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(7) (including the acceleration of any claims by operation of law)), the amount that shall then be due and payable in respect of the Notes shall equal the amount which would be due on an optional redemption of the Notes, in each case, determined as of the date of such acceleration, as if the Notes had been optionally redeemed as of the date of such acceleration (i.e., principal plus the Make-Whole Premium if prior to June 1, 2022, and thereafter principal at the redemption price specified under paragraph 5 of the Notes as of such date) and, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date of redemption of such Notes (or payment in the case of a bankruptcy or insolvency event). The amount in excess of par represented by such redemption price, the “Redemption Premium” and, together with any Make-Whole Premium, the “premium”.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that if the Notes are accelerated or otherwise become due prior to the Maturity Date, in each case, as a result of an Event of Default (including, but not limited to, an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(7) (including the acceleration of any claims by operation of law)), the Make-Whole Premium or the Redemption Premium, as applicable, shall also be due and payable as though the Notes had been optionally redeemed on the date of such acceleration and shall constitute part of the Obligations with respect to the Notes in view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of each Holder’s lost profits as a result thereof. If the Make-Whole Premium or the Redemption Price Premium, as applicable, becomes due and payable, it shall be deemed to be principal of the Notes and interest shall accrue on the full principal amount of the Notes (including the Make-Whole Premium or the Redemption Price Premium, as applicable) from and after the applicable triggering event, including in connection with an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(7). Any premium payable pursuant to this paragraph and the immediately preceding paragraph shall be presumed to be equal to the liquidated damages sustained by each Holder as the result of the early acceleration or redemption of the Notes and the Issuer and each Guarantor agrees that it is a reasonable estimate under the circumstances currently existing of such Holder’s actual damages. The premium shall also be payable in the event the Notes and/or this Indenture are satisfied, released or discharged through foreclosure, whether by power of judicial proceeding, deed in lieu of foreclosure or by any other means and/or upon the satisfaction, release, payment, restructuring, reorganization, replacement, reinstatement or compromise of the Notes in any insolvency or liquidation proceeding. THE ISSUER AND EACH GUARANTOR EXPRESSLY WAIVES (TO THE FULLEST EXTENT THEY MAY LAWFULLY DO SO) THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW, RULE OR REGULATION THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE FOREGOING PREMIUM IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACCELERATION. The Issuer and each Guarantor expressly agrees (to the fullest extent they may lawfully do so) that: (A) the premium is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business entities ably represented by counsel; (B) the premium shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time of any acceleration or such payment is made; (C) there has been a course of conduct between the Holders, on the one hand, and the Issuer and the Guarantors, on the other hand, giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the premium; and (D) the

-123-

Issuer and each Guarantor shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph. The Issuer and each Guarantor expressly acknowledges that its agreement to pay the premium to the Holders as herein described is a material inducement to the Holders to purchase the Notes.

In the event of any Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(5), such Event of Default and all consequences thereof (excluding any resulting Payment Default, other than as a result of acceleration of the Notes) shall be annulled, waived and rescinded, automatically and without any action by the Trustee or the Holders, if within 30 days after such Event of Default arose:

(1)the Indebtedness or Guarantee that is the basis for such Event of Default has been discharged; or

(2)Holders thereof have rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or action (as the case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default; or

(3)the Payment Default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured.

In the event of a declaration of acceleration with respect to the Notes, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may, by written notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, on behalf of all of the Holders, rescind and annul such acceleration and its consequences, so long as such rescission and annulment would not conflict with any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction if:

(1) all Events of Default, other than nonpayment of principal, premium, if any, or interest that has become due solely because of the acceleration, have been cured or waived;

(2) to the extent the payment of such interest is lawful, interest on overdue installments of interest and overdue principal, which has become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration, has been paid; and

-124-

(3) the Issuer has paid the Trustee its reasonable compensation and reimbursed the Trustee for its reasonable expenses, disbursements, indemnities and advances.

No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

Section 6.03 Other Remedies.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy by proceeding at law or in equity to collect the payment of principal of, or premium, if any, and interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture and may take any necessary action requested by the Holders of a majority of the principal amount outstanding of the Notes to settle, compromise, adjust or otherwise conclude any proceedings to which it is a party.

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 Noteholder 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. Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes in Section 2.08, no remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is exclusive of any other remedy. All available remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

Section 6.04 Waiver of Existing Defaults and Events of Default.

(a) Subject to Sections 2.10 and 6.08 and the terms of the Notes Security Documents, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding shall have the right to waive any past and existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under this Indenture, except a Default in the payment of the principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on any Note held by a non-consenting Holder as specified in clauses (1) and (2) of Section 6.01 or in respect of a covenant or a provision which cannot be modified or amended without the consent of each Holder as provided for in Section 8.02 (which shall require the consent of all Holders); provided that, subject to Section 6.02, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration. In case of any such waiver, the Issuer, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder and under the Notes, respectively.

(b) Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

-125-

Section 6.05 Control by Majority.

Subject to Sections 2.10, 6.06 and 7.01 of this Indenture and the Intercreditor Agreements, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee or the Collateral Agent by this Indenture or the Notes Security Documents. The Trustee or the Collateral Agent, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or the Notes Security Documents or that the Trustee or the Collateral Agent determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of another Holder not taking part in such direction, and the Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction (it being understood that the Trustee or the Collateral Agent does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not any such directions are unduly prejudicial to such Holders) if the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, being advised by counsel, determines that the action so directed may not lawfully be taken or if the Trustee or the Collateral Agent in good faith shall, by a Responsible Officer, determine that the proceedings so directed may involve it in personal liability; provided that the Trustee or the Collateral Agent may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent which is not inconsistent with such direction. In the event the Trustee or the Collateral Agent takes any action or follows any direction pursuant to this Indenture or the Notes Security Documents, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to indemnification reasonably satisfactory to it against any cost, liability or expense that might be caused by taking such action or following such direction.

Without such direction and indemnification as described above, neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent will be obligated to act upon directions purported to be delivered to it such Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes, to foreclose upon or otherwise enforce any Lien or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to any or all of the Notes Security Documents, the Liens created thereby or the Collateral.

Section 6.06 Limitation on Suits.

Subject to Section 6.08, no Holder shall have any right to institute any proceeding with respect to this Indenture, the Notes Security Documents or the Notes or for any remedy hereunder or thereunder, unless:

(1)such Holder has previously given the Trustee or the Collateral Agent written notice of a continuing Event of Default;

-126-

(2)the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding have made a written request to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent to pursue the remedy;

(3)such Holder or Holders have offered the Trustee or Collateral Agent security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent against any costs, liability or expense;

(4)the Trustee or the Collateral Agent has not complied with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity against any cost, liability or expense that might be caused by complying with such request; and

(5)during such 60-day period, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee or the Collateral Agent a direction that is inconsistent with the request.

A Noteholder may not use any provision of this Indenture to disturb or prejudice the rights of another Noteholder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Noteholder.

Section 6.07 No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees and Stockholders.

No past, present or future director, officer, employee, manager, member, partner, incorporator or stockholder of the Issuer or of any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer or any Parent Entity of the Issuer (other than the Issuer in respect of the Notes and each Guarantor in respect of its Guarantee), as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or the Guarantors under the Notes, this Indenture, the Note Guarantees, the Notes Security Documents, the Intercreditor Agreements or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws.

Section 6.08 Rights of Holders To Receive Payment.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the contractual right of any Holder to bring suit to enforce the payment, of principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on its Note on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for in such Note shall not be amended without the consent of such Holder.

Section 6.09 Collection Suit by Trustee.

If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(1) or (2) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer or any Guarantor (or any other obligor on the Notes) for the whole amount of unpaid principal and accrued interest remaining unpaid, together with interest on overdue principal and, to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest on overdue installments of interest, in each case, at the rate

-127-

set forth in the Notes, and such further amounts 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.

Section 6.10 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

The Trustee may 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 any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07) and the Noteholders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer or any Guarantor (or any other obligor upon the Notes), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same after deduction of its charges and expenses to the extent that any such charges and expenses are not paid out of the estate in any such proceedings and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Noteholder 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 Noteholders, 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.

Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Noteholder any plan or reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Noteholder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Noteholder in any such proceedings.

Section 6.11 Priorities.

If the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article VI, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements, such money or property shall be paid out or distributed in the following order:

FIRST: to the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and any predecessor Trustee or Collateral Agent for amounts due under Section 7.07;

-128-

SECOND: to Noteholders for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes 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 for principal, premium, if any, and interest, respectively; and

Section 6.12 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 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 6.12 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Noteholder pursuant to Section 6.08 or a suit by Noteholders of more than 10% in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding.

Section 7.02 Rights of Trustee and Collateral Agent.

Subject to Section 7.01:

(1)The Trustee and the Collateral Agent may conclusively rely on any document (whether in its original, facsimile or electronic (including .pdf) form) reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper person.

However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest within the meaning of Section 310(b) of the TIA, it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the Commission for permission to continue as Trustee or resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights. The Trustee shall also be subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11.

The Issuer and the Guarantors shall pay to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent from time to time compensation as agreed upon for its services hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust). The Issuer and the Guarantors shall reimburse the Trustee and the Collateral Agent upon request for all reasonable disbursements, expenses and advances incurred or made by it in connection with the Trustee’s and the Collateral Agent’s duties under this Indenture, the Notes Guarantees, the Notes Security Documents and/or any other related documents including the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s and the Collateral Agent’s agents and counsel.

-134-

The Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall indemnify each of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent and its respective agents, employees, stockholders, attorneys, directors and officers and any predecessor Trustee or Collateral Agent for, and hold each of them harmless against, any and all loss, damage, claim, liability or expense, including without limitation taxes (other than taxes based on the income of any such Person) and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses (collectively, “Losses”) incurred by each of them in connection with the acceptance or administration of this Indenture, the Notes Guarantees, the Notes Security Documents and/or any other related documents or the performance of their respective duties under this Indenture, the Notes, the Notes Guarantees, the Notes Security Documents and/or any other related documents or the exercise of the respective rights and powers under this Indenture, the Notes, the Note Guarantees, the Notes Security Documents and/or any other related documents, including the reasonable costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture (including this Section 7.07), the Notes, the Note Guarantees, the Notes Security Documents, or any related documents or otherwise arising under such documents and including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by any Holder, the Issuer, any Guarantor or otherwise) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its rights, powers or duties hereunder (including, without limitation, settlement costs). The Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall notify the Issuer and the Guarantors in writing promptly of any third party claim of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable has actual knowledge asserted against the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, for which it may seek indemnity (each, a “Third Party Claim”); provided that the failure by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable to so notify the Issuer and the Guarantors shall not relieve the Issuer and Guarantors of their obligations hereunder except to the extent the Issuer and the Guarantors are actually prejudiced thereby. Neither the Issuer nor any Guarantor need pay for any settlement or provide any indemnification for any other Losses associated therewith to the extent such settlement is made in connection with any Third Party Claim without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall have the right to its own counsel and the Issuer shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel in connection with any Third Party Claim to the extent the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, reasonably determines that a conflict of interest exists or is required in connection with the performance of its duties under this Indenture.

-135-

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer and the Guarantors need not reimburse the Trustee or the Collateral Agent for any expense or indemnify it against any loss or liability to have been incurred by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent through its own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

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 for such money or property held in trust to pay principal of and interest on particular Notes. Such lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

The obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors under this Section 7.07 to compensate and indemnify the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, each predecessor Trustee and predecessor Collateral Agent and to pay or reimburse the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, each predecessor Trustee and each predecessor Collateral Agent for expenses, disbursements and advances shall be joint and several liabilities of the Issuer and each of the Guarantors and shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent and the satisfaction, discharge or other termination of this Indenture, including any termination or rejection hereof under any Bankruptcy Law.

When the Trustee or the Collateral Agent incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01 (7) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable Bankruptcy Law.

For purposes of this Section 7.07, the term “Trustee” shall include any trustee appointed pursuant to this Article VII; provided, however, that the negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of any Trustee hereunder shall not affect the rights of any other Trustee hereunder. The provisions of this Section 7.07 shall apply to Trustee in its capacity as Collateral Agent, Paying Agent, Registrar and any other Agent under this Indenture and/or the Notes Security Agreements and shall survive the termination of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee and/or the Collateral Agent in any capacity.

The Issuer may remove the Trustee or the Collateral Agent at its election if:

-136-

(2)the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law;

(3)a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property or the Collateral Agent or its property, as applicable; or

(4)the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

If the Trustee or the Collateral Agent resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee or the Collateral Agent for any reason, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or a successor Collateral Agent, as applicable.

If a successor Trustee or successor Collateral Agent does not take office within 30 days after the retiring Trustee or retiring Collateral Agent, as applicable, resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee or retiring Collateral Agent, as applicable, the Issuer or the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may petition at the expense of the Issuer any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee or successor Collateral Agent, as applicable.

If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10, Noteholders holding at least 10% in principal amount of the Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

A successor Trustee or successor Collateral Agent shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee or retiring Collateral Agent, as applicable, and to the Issuer. Immediately following such delivery, the retiring Trustee or retiring Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall, subject to its rights under Section 7.07, transfer all property held by it as Trustee or Collateral Agent to the successor Trustee or successor Collateral Agent, as applicable, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee or the retiring Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall become effective, and the successor Trustee or the successor Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, under this Indenture. A successor Trustee or successor Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall mail notice of its succession to each Noteholder. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ obligations under Section 7.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee or retiring Collateral Agent.

-137-

Section 7.09 Successor by Consolidation, Merger, etc.

If the Trustee or the Collateral Agent consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust assets to, another corporation, subject to Section 7.10, the successor corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee or successor Collateral Agent, as applicable; provided that such entity shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article VII.

Section 7.11 Preferential Collection of Claims Against Issuer.

The Trustee is subject to and shall comply with TIA § 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA § 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA § 311(a) to the extent indicated therein.

Section 7.12 Paying Agents.

The Issuer shall cause each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to it and the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 7.12:

(B) that it will at any time during the continuance of any Event of Default, upon written request from the Trustee, deliver to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by it together with a full accounting thereof; and

Section 8.02 With Consent of Noteholders.

(a) Except to the extent provided in Section 8.01 and subsections (b) and (c) of this Section 8.02, this Indenture, the Notes, any Note Guarantee or the Notes Security Documents may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes voting as a single class (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes), and any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision of this Indenture, the Notes, any Note Guarantee or the Notes Security Documents may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a

Section 8.03 [Reserved].

Section 8.04 Revocation and Effect of Consents.

(a) Until an amendment, supplement, waiver or other action becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder is a continuing consent, conclusive and binding upon such Holder and every subsequent Holder of the same Note or portion thereof, and of any Note issued upon the transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in place thereof, even if notation of the consent is not made on any such Note.

-142-

(b) 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 Noteholders 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 Noteholders after such record date.

(c) After an amendment, supplement, waiver or other action under Section 8.01 or Section 8.02 becomes effective, it shall bind every Noteholder, unless it makes a change described in any of clauses (1) through (9) of Section 8.02(b).

Section 8.05 Notation on or Exchange of Notes.

If an amendment, supplement, or waiver changes the terms of a Note, the Trustee (in accordance with the specific written direction of the Issuer) shall request the Holder of the Note to deliver it to the Trustee. In such case, the Trustee shall place an appropriate notation on the Note about the changed terms and return it to the Noteholder. Alternatively, if the Issuer or the Trustee so determines, the Issuer in exchange for the Note shall issue, the Guarantors shall endorse and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.01, the Trustee shall authenticate a new Note that reflects the changed terms. 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 8.06 Trustee and Collateral Agent to Sign Amendments, etc.

The Trustee and, as applicable, the Collateral Agent, shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article VIII if the amendment, supplement or waiver does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee and, as applicable, the Collateral Agent. If it does adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, if applicable, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, may, but need not, sign such amendment, supplement or waiver. The Issuer or the Guarantors may not sign an amendment, supplement or waiver until its Board of Directors approve it. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in signing an amendment, supplement or waiver, the Trustee and, as applicable, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to receive and, subject to Section 7.01, shall be fully protected in relying upon an Officer’s Certificate and (other than in the case of an amendment or supplement for the purpose of adding a Guarantor under this Indenture in accordance with Section 8.01(5)) an Opinion of Counsel stating, in addition to the matters required by Section 12.04, that the execution of such amendment, supplement or waiver is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such amendment, supplement or waiver is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer and

-143-

the Guarantors party thereto, enforceable against the Issuer and the Guarantors party thereto in accordance with its terms (subject to customary exceptions). Guarantors may, but shall not be required to, execute supplemental indentures that do not modify such Guarantor’s Note Guarantee.

The Issuer may, at its option and at any time, elect to have all of its obligations and the obligations of the Guarantors discharged with respect to all outstanding Notes on the date the conditions set forth in Section 9.04 are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, such 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 (including the Note Guarantees), to have cured all then existing Events of Default and to have satisfied all of its other obligations under such Notes, the Note Guarantees, this Indenture and the Notes Security Documents, and to have Liens on the Collateral securing the Notes released (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall, subject to Section 9.06, execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:

(1) the rights of the Holders of the outstanding Notes to receive solely from the trust described in Section 9.04 and as more fully set forth in Section 9.04, payments in respect of the principal amount of, premium, if any, and interest on such Notes when such payments are due;

Concurrently with any Legal Defeasance, the Issuer may, at its further option, cause to be terminated, as of the date on which such Legal Defeasance occurs, all of the obligations under any or all of the Note Guarantees, if any, then existing and obtain the release of the Note Guarantees of any or all Guarantors.

For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the Notes, the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries may omit or fail to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Issuer’s exercise of the option in this Section 9.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 9.04, Sections 6.01(3), (4), (5), (6), (7) (solely with respect to a Restricted Subsidiary that is a Significant Subsidiary and any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary), (8) and (9) shall not constitute Events of Default.

Each Guarantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by law) diligence, presentment, demand for 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 or notice with respect to any such Note or the Indebtedness evidenced thereby and all demands whatsoever, and covenants that this Guarantee will not be discharged as to any such Note except by payment in full of the principal thereof and interest thereon.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Article VII of this Indenture and the provisions of the Notes Security Documents, each of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent may (but shall in no event be required to), in its sole discretion and without the consent of the Holders, on behalf of the Holders, take all actions it deems necessary or appropriate in order to (i) enforce any of its rights or any of the rights of the Holders under the Notes Security Documents and (ii) collect and receive any and all amounts payable in respect of the Collateral in respect of the obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors (other than the Dutch Guarantor) hereunder and thereunder. Subject to the provisions of the Notes Security Documents, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall have the power, but not the obligation, to institute and to maintain such suits and proceedings as it may deem expedient to prevent any impairment of the Collateral by any acts that may be unlawful or in violation of the Notes Security Documents or this Indenture, and such suits and proceedings as the Trustee or the Collateral Agent may deem expedient to preserve or protect its interest and the interests of the Holders in the Collateral.

(b) None of the Collateral Agent, Trustee, Paying Agent, Registrar, such other agent nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys or agents will be responsible or liable for the existence, genuineness, value or protection of any Collateral (except the custody of Collateral in its possession using the same care it provides for its own possessory collateral and the accounting for monies actually received), for the legality, enforceability, effectiveness or sufficiency of the Notes Security Documents, or for the creation, perfection, priority, sufficiency or protection of any Liens or any defect or deficiency. In addition, none of the foregoing will have any duties or responsibilities or obligations other than those expressly assumed by it in this Indenture and the Notes Security Documents and will not be required to take any action that is contrary to applicable law or any provision of this Indenture or any of the Notes Security Documents.

Promptly upon the occurrence of any of the foregoing, the Issuer and the Guarantors (other than the Dutch Guarantor) will make all filings under the UCC and any other applicable laws that are required by this Indenture and/or the Notes Security Documents in order for the Collateral to be perfected subject to the Lien of the Collateral Agent under this Indenture and/or the Notes Security Documents in the manner and to the extent required by this Indenture or any of the Notes Security Documents, and shall take all necessary action so that such Lien is perfected with the same priority as immediately prior to such change to the extent required by this Indenture and/or the Notes Security Documents.

-161-

(b) The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent an Officer’s Certificate attaching supplemental schedules required under the Notes Security Documents to the extent required under and at the same time as similar supplemental schedules are delivered to the Term Loan Credit Facility Collateral Agent.

Section 11.10 Notes Security Documents.

The provisions in this Indenture relating to Collateral are subject to the provisions of the Notes Security Documents. The Issuer, the Guarantors (other than the Dutch Guarantor), the Trustee and the Collateral Agent acknowledge and agree to be bound by the provisions of the Notes Security Documents.

ARTICLE XII.

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 12.01 Currency Indemnity.

The U.S. Dollar is the sole currency (the “Required Currency”) of account and payment for all sums payable by the Issuer or any Guarantor under or in connection with the Notes, this Indenture and the Guarantees, including damages. Any amount with respect to the Notes, this Indenture or the Guarantees received or recovered in a currency other than the Required Currency, whether as a result of, or the enforcement of, a judgment or order of a court of any jurisdiction, in the winding-up or dissolution of the Issuer or any Guarantor or otherwise by any Holder or by the Trustee, Collateral Agent or Paying Agent, in respect of any sum expressed to be due to it from the Issuer or any Guarantor will only constitute a discharge to the Issuer or such Guarantor to the extent of the Required Currency amount which the recipient is able to purchase with the amount so received or recovered in that other currency on the date of that receipt or recovery (or, if it is not practicable to make that purchase on that date, on the first date on which it is practicable to do so).

-162-

If that Required Currency amount is less than the Required Currency amount expressed to be due to the recipient or the Trustee, Collateral Agent or Paying Agent under the Notes, the Issuer and each Guarantor will indemnify such recipient and/or the Trustee, Collateral Agent or Paying Agent against any loss sustained by it as a result. In any event, the Issuer and each Guarantor will indemnify the recipient against the cost of making any such purchase. For the purposes of this currency indemnity provision, it will be prima facie evidence of the matter stated therein, for the Holder of a Note or the Trustee, Collateral Agent or Paying Agent to certify in a manner satisfactory to the Issuer (indicating the sources of information used) the loss it incurred in making any such purchase. These indemnities constitute a separate and independent obligation from the Issuer’s and each Guarantor’s other obligations, will give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, will apply irrespective of any waiver granted by any Holder of a Note or the Trustee, Collateral Agent or Paying Agent (other than a waiver of the indemnities set out herein) and will continue in full force and effect despite any other judgment, order, claim or proof for a liquidated amount in respect of any sum due under any Note or to the Trustee or Collateral Agent. For the purposes of determining the amount in a currency other than the Required Currency, such amount shall be determined using the relevant currency exchange rate then in effect.

[FORM OF REVERSE OF NOTE]

COOPER-STANDARD AUTOMOTIVE INC.

13.000% SENIOR SECURED NOTE DUE 2024

1. Interest. Cooper-Standard Automotive Inc., an Ohio corporation (the “Issuer”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount set forth on the face hereof at a rate of 13.000% per annum. Interest hereon will accrue from and including the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from and including May 29, 2020 to but excluding the date on which interest is paid. Interest shall be payable in arrears on each June 1 and December 1, commencing on December 1, 2020, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an “Interest Payment Date”) and no interest on such payment will accrue in respect of the delay. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprising twelve 30-day months, and in the case of an incomplete month, the number of actual days elapsed. The Issuer shall pay interest on overdue principal and on overdue interest (to the extent lawful) at the rate borne by the Notes.

2. Method of Payment. The Issuer will pay interest hereon (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders at the close of business on May 15 or November 15, as the case may be, immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date (whether or not a Business Day). Interest may be paid by check mailed to the Holder entitled thereto at the address indicated on the register maintained by the Registrar for the Notes; provided that all payments of principal and interest and premium, if any, with respect to the Notes represented by one or more Global Notes will be made in accordance with the Depository’s applicable procedures. The Issuer will pay principal and interest in U.S. Dollars. Holders must surrender Notes to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments.

3. Paying Agent and Registrar. Initially, U.S. Bank National Association (the “Trustee”) will act as a Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice. The Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

4. Indenture. The Issuer issued the Notes under an Indenture, dated as of May 29, 2020 (the “Indenture”), among the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent. This is one of an issue of Notes of the Issuer issued, or to be issued, under 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 them. Capitalized and certain other terms used herein and not otherwise defined have the meanings set forth in the Indenture. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

A-1-4

5. Optional Redemption.

At any time prior to June 1, 2022, the Issuer may, at its option, on any one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under the Indenture, including any Additional Notes issued after the Issue Date, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at a redemption price equal to 113.000% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, with an amount of cash no greater than the cash proceeds (net of underwriting discounts and commissions) of all Equity Offerings to the extent such cash proceeds are received by or contributed to the Issuer since the Issue Date, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the applicable Redemption Date; provided that:

(1) at least 65% (calculated without giving effect to any issuance of Additional Notes) of the original aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under the Indenture (excluding Notes held by the Issuer and its Subsidiaries) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption; and

(2) each such redemption occurs within 120 days of the date of the closing of each such Equity Offering.

In addition, prior to June 1, 2022, the Issuer may, at its option, redeem the Notes on any one or more occasions, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the Make-Whole Redemption Date, plus the applicable Make-Whole Premium (a “Make-Whole Redemption”). The Issuer shall notify the Trustee of the Make-Whole Premium on or before the applicable Redemption Date, and the Trustee shall have no responsibility for verifying or otherwise for such calculation.

On or after June 1, 2022, the Issuer may, at its option, redeem the Notes on any one or more occasions, in whole or in part, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes redeemed to but excluding the applicable Redemption Date, if redeemed during the periods indicated below:




Period	Percentage
June 1, 2022 to May 31, 2023	106.500	%
June 1, 2023 to November 30, 2023	103.250	%
December 1, 2023 and thereafter	100.000	%

Unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable Redemption Date. 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.

A-1-5

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with any tender offer, if Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes 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 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 60 days following the effective date of such tender offer, to redeem (with respect to the Issuer) or purchase (with respect to a third party) all Notes 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 and any accrued and unpaid interest paid 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 excluding the Redemption Date or purchase date, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date falling on or prior to the Redemption Date or purchase date. In determining whether the Holders of at least 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes have validly tendered and not validly withdrawn Notes in a tender offer, Change of Control Offer, Offer or Advance Offer, as applicable, Notes owned by an Affiliate of the Issuer or by funds controlled or managed by an Affiliate of the Issuer, or any successor thereof, shall be deemed to be outstanding for the purposes of such tender offer, Change of Control Offer, Offer or Advance Offer, as applicable.

In addition, the Issuer and its Affiliates may acquire Notes at any time and from time to time by means other than a redemption, whether by tender offer, open market purchases, negotiated transactions or otherwise, in accordance with applicable securities laws, so long as such acquisition does not otherwise violate the terms of the Indenture.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the payment of accrued but unpaid interest in connection with any redemption of Notes is subject to the rights of a Holder on a record date for the payment of interest whose Notes are to be redeemed on or after such record date but on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date to receive interest on such Interest Payment Date.

6. Offers To Purchase. The Indenture provides that upon the occurrence of a Change of Control or an Asset Disposition and subject to further limitations and exceptions contained therein, the Issuer may be required to make an offer to purchase outstanding Notes in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture. Except as set forth in Sections 4.07 and 4.08 of the Indenture, the Issuer is not required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.

7. Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. A Holder may transfer or exchange Notes in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Issuer or the Trustee may require a Holder to pay to it any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar or

A-1-6

the Issuer need not register the transfer of or exchange any Notes or portion of a Note selected for redemption, or register the transfer of or exchange any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed.
