In authenticating the Notes and accepting the responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to the Notes, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the form and terms thereof have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture.

The Issuers will also maintain one or more transfer agents, including one in New

York City (the “U.S. Dollar Transfer Agent”) and one in the City of London (the “Sterling Transfer Agent” and, together with the U.S. Dollar Transfer Agent, the “Transfer Agents” and each, a “Transfer Agent”).

Payment of principal will be made upon the surrender of Definitive Notes following maturity thereof at the office of the applicable Paying Agent. In the case of a transfer of a Definitive Note in part, upon surrender of the Definitive Note to be transferred, a Definitive Note shall be issued to the transferee in respect of the principal amount transferred and a Definitive Note shall be issued to the transferor in respect of the balance of the principal amount of the transferred Definitive Note at the office of any Transfer Agent.

For the avoidance of doubt, upon the issuance of Definitive Notes, Holders will be able to receive principal and interest on the Notes and will be able to transfer Definitive Notes at the office of such Paying Agent or Transfer Agent, subject to the right of the Issuers to mail payments in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.

Upon distribution to the Trustee of all assets that shall have been delivered by the

Issuers to the applicable Paying Agent, such Paying Agent shall have no further liability for such money.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture (other than the provisions set forth in this Section 2.06(b)), Global Notes representing Sterling Notes may not be transferred except as a whole by the Common Depositary or by a nominee of the Common Depositary to the Common Depositary or another nominee of the Common Depositary or by the Common Depositary or any such nominee to a successor of the Common Depositary or a nominee of such a successor of the Common Depositary. Interests of Beneficial Owners in the Rule 144A Global Notes and the Permanent Regulation S Global Notes may be transferred or exchanged for Definitive Notes in accordance with the rules and procedures of DTC or the Clearing Agencies, as applicable, and the provisions of this Section 2.06, subject to the occurrence of the limited circumstances described in the following sentence. So long as such exchange complies with Section 2.07, all Global Notes shall be exchanged by the Issuers (with authentication by the Trustee upon receipt of an Issuer Order) for one or more Definitive Notes, if (a) DTC (with respect to the U.S. Dollar Notes) or any Clearing Agency (with respect to the Sterling Notes), as applicable, notifies the Issuers at any time that it is unwilling or unable to continue to act as a clearing agency and a successor depositary is not appointed by the Issuers

within 120 days of such notification, (b) DTC (with respect to the U.S. Dollar Notes) or any Clearing Agency (with respect to the Sterling Notes) or, as applicable, so requests following an Event of Default hereunder or (c) if a Holder requests such exchange in writing delivered through DTC or any Clearing Agency, as applicable, following an Event of Default and enforcement action is being taken in respect thereof. In such an event, the Issuers will issue Definitive Registered Notes, registered in the name or names and issued in any approved denominations, requested by or on behalf of DTC or any Clearing Agency (in accordance with their respective customary procedures and based upon directions received from participants reflecting the beneficial ownership of book-entry interests) (with authentication by the Trustee upon receipt of an Issuer Order); provided, however, that the principal amount at maturity of such Definitive Notes and such Global Note after such exchange shall be $200,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof for the U.S. Dollar Notes and £100,000 and integral multiples of £1,000 in excess thereof for the Sterling Notes. Whenever all of a Global Note is exchanged for one or more Definitive Notes, it shall be surrendered by the Holder thereof to the Registrar for cancellation. Whenever a part of a Global Note is exchanged for one or more Definitive Notes, the Global Note shall be surrendered by the Holder thereof to the Registrar who shall cause an adjustment to be made to Schedule A of such Global Note such that the principal amount of such Global Note will be equal to the portion of such Global Note not exchanged and shall thereafter return such Global Note to such Holder. A Global Note may not be exchanged for a Definitive Note other than as provided in this Section 2.06(b). Every Note authenticated and delivered in exchange for or in lieu of a Global Note, or any portion thereof, pursuant to Section 2.08, 2.11 or 3.08 or otherwise, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note.

(c) In connection with the transfer of Global Notes as an entirety to Beneficial Owners in the form of Definitive Notes pursuant to clause (b) of this Section 2.06, the Global Notes shall be deemed to be surrendered to the Registrar for cancellation, and the Issuers shall execute, and the Trustee shall upon receipt of an Issuer Order from the Issuers authenticate and make available for delivery, to each Beneficial Owner in exchange for its beneficial interest in the Global Notes, an equal aggregate principal amount of Definitive Notes of authorized denominations.

(d) Any Definitive Note delivered in exchange for an interest in a Global Note pursuant to clause (b) of this Section 2.06 shall, except as otherwise provided by Section 2.07, bear the Private Placement Legend.

SECTION 2.07 Registration of Transfer and Exchange. (a) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, so long as a Note remains outstanding, transfers of beneficial interests in Global Notes or transfers of Definitive Notes, in whole or in part, shall be made only in accordance with this Section 2.07 and upon delivery of a certificate from the Holder of the relevant Note substantially in the form of the certificate attached to Exhibit A. Beneficial interests in Global Notes or Definitive Notes representing U.S. Dollar Notes cannot be exchanged for, or transferred to Person who take delivery thereof in the form of, beneficial interests in Global Notes or Definitive Notes representing Sterling Notes and beneficial interests in Global Notes or Definitive Notes representing Sterling Notes cannot be exchanged for, or transferred to Person who take delivery thereof in the form of, beneficial interests in Global Notes or Definitive Notes representing U.S. Dollar Notes.

(b) If a holder of a beneficial interest in a Rule 144A Global Note wishes at any time to exchange its interest in such Rule 144A Global Note for an interest in a Regulation S Global Notes, or to transfer its interest in such Rule 144A Global Note to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of an interest in such Regulation S Global Notes, such holder may, subject to the rules and procedures of DTC or the Clearing Agency, to the extent applicable, and subject to the requirements set forth in the following sentence, exchange or cause the exchange or transfer or cause the transfer of such interest for an equivalent beneficial interest in such Regulation S Global Notes. Upon (1) written instructions given in accordance with the procedures of DTC or the Clearing Agency, to the extent applicable, from or on behalf of a holder of a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Note, directing the credit of a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Notes in an amount equal to the beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Note to be exchanged or transferred, (2) a written order given in accordance with the procedures of DTC or the Clearing Agency, to the extent applicable, containing information regarding the account to be credited with such increase and the name of such account and (3) receipt by the Registrar of a certificate given by the holder of such beneficial interest stating that the exchange or transfer of such interest has been made pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 903 or Rule 904 of Regulation S or Rule 144 under the Securities Act, the Registrar shall promptly deliver appropriate instructions to DTC or the Clearing Agency, as applicable, to reduce or reflect on its records a reduction of such Rule 144A Global Note by the aggregate principal amount of the beneficial interest in such Rule 144A Global Note to be so exchanged or transferred from the relevant participant, and the Registrar shall promptly deliver appropriate instructions to DTC or the Clearing Agency, as applicable concurrently with such reduction, to increase or reflect on its records an increase of the principal amount of such Regulation S Global Notes by the aggregate principal amount of the beneficial interest in such Rule 144A Global Note to be so exchanged or transferred, and to credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in such Regulation S Global Notes equal to the reduction in the principal amount of such Rule 144A Global Note.

(c) If a holder of a beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Notes wishes at any time to exchange its interest in such Regulation S Global Notes for an interest in a Rule 144A Global Note, or to transfer its interest in such Regulation S Global Notes to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of an interest in such Rule 144A Global Note, such holder may, subject to the rules and procedures of DTC or the Clearing Agency, to the extent applicable, and to the requirements set forth in the following sentence, exchange or cause the exchange or transfer or cause the transfer of such interest for an equivalent beneficial interest in such Rule 144A Global Note. Upon (1) written instructions given in accordance with the procedures of DTC or the Clearing Agency, to the extent applicable, from or on behalf of a holder of a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Notes directing the credit of a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Note in an amount equal to the beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Notes to be exchanged or transferred, (2) a written order given in accordance with the procedures of DTC or the Clearing Agency, to the extent applicable, containing information regarding the account to be credited with such increase and the name of such account and (3) in the case of the holder of a beneficial interest in a Temporary Regulation S Global Note, receipt by the Registrar of a certificate given by the holder of such beneficial interest stating that the exchange or transfer of such interest is being made to a Person (x) who the holder of the beneficial interest believes to be a QIB, (y) purchasing for its own account or the account of a QIB in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A and (z) in

accordance with all applicable securities laws of the States of the United States, the Registrar shall promptly deliver appropriate instructions to DTC or the Clearing Agency, as applicable, to reduce or reflect on its records a reduction of such Regulation S Global Notes by the aggregate principal amount of the beneficial interest in such Regulation S Global Notes to be exchanged or transferred, and the Registrar shall promptly deliver appropriate instructions to DTC or the Clearing Agency, as applicable, concurrently with such reduction, to increase or reflect on its records an increase of the principal amount of such Rule 144A Global Note by the aggregate principal amount of the beneficial interest in such Regulation S Global Notes to be so exchanged or transferred, and to credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in such Rule 144A Global Note equal to the reduction in the principal amount of such Regulation S Global Notes.

(d) Any beneficial interest in one of the Global Notes that is transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in the other Global Note will, upon transfer, cease to be an interest in such Global Note and become an interest in the other Global Note and, accordingly, will thereafter be subject to all transfer restrictions and other procedures applicable to beneficial interests in such other Global Note for as long as it remains such an interest.

(e) In the event that a Global Note is exchanged for Definitive Notes in registered form without interest coupons, pursuant to Section 2.06(b), or a Definitive Note in registered form without interest coupons is exchanged for another such Definitive Note in registered form without interest coupons, or a Definitive Note is exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Rule 144A Global Note or a Permanent Regulation S Global Note, such Notes may be exchanged or transferred for one another only in accordance with (i) such procedures as are substantially consistent with the provisions of Section 2.07(a), Section 2.07(b) and Section 2.07(c) (including the certification requirements intended to ensure that such exchanges or transfers comply with Rule 144, Rule 144A or Regulation S, as the case maybe) and as may be from time to time adopted by the Issuers and the Trustee.

(f) During the Distribution Compliance Period, beneficial interests in the Temporary Regulation S Global Note may only be sold, pledged or transferred in accordance with the Applicable Procedures and only (i) to the Issuers, (ii) in an offshore transaction in accordance with Regulation S (other than a transaction resulting in an exchange for an interest in a Permanent Regulation S Global Note) or (iii) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, in each case in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any State of the United States.

(g) Each Rule 144A Note issued hereunder shall, upon issuance, bear the legend set forth herein and such legend shall not be removed from such Note except as provided in the next sentence. The legend required for a Rule 144A Note may be removed from a Rule 144A Note if there is delivered to the Issuers and the Trustee such satisfactory evidence, which may include an opinion of independent counsel licensed to practice law in the State of New York, as may be reasonably required by the Issuers and the Trustee, that neither such legend nor the restrictions on transfer set forth therein are required to ensure that transfers of such Note will not violate the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Upon provision of such satisfactory evidence, the Trustee, upon receipt of an Issuer Order, shall authenticate and deliver in exchange for such Note another Note or Notes having an equal aggregate principal amount that does not bear such

legend. If such a legend required for a Rule 144A Note has been removed from a Rule 144A Note as provided in this Section 2.07, no other Note issued in exchange for all or any part of such Note shall bear such legend, unless the Issuers have reasonable cause to believe that such other Note is a “restricted security” within the meaning of Rule 144 and instructs the Trustee to cause a legend to appear thereon.

The Notes shall bear the following legend (the “Restricted Security Legend”) on the face thereof:

THE NOTES EVIDENCED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “U.S. SECURITIES ACT”) AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT (A) (1) TO A PERSON WHO THE SELLER REASONABLY BELIEVES IS A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER WITHIN THE MEANING OF RULE 144A UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT PURCHASING FOR ITS OWN ACCOUNT OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OF A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER IN A TRANSACTION MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF RULE 144A UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT, (2) IN AN OFFSHORE TRANSACTION COMPLYING WITH RULE 903 OR RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT, (3) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT PROVIDED BY RULE 144 THEREUNDER (IF AVAILABLE) OR (4) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT AND (B) IN ACCORDANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF THE STATES OF THE UNITED STATES AND OTHER JURISDICTIONS.

Temporary Regulation S Global Notes will bear an additional legend substantially to the following effect:

THIS GLOBAL NOTE IS A TEMPORARY GLOBAL NOTE FOR PURPOSES OF REGULATION S UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT. NEITHER THIS TEMPORARY GLOBAL NOTE NOR ANY INTEREST HEREIN MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, DELIVERED OR EXCHANGED FOR AN INTEREST IN A PERMANENT GLOBAL NOTE OR OTHER NOTE EXCEPT UPON DELIVERY OF THE CERTIFICATIONS SPECIFIED IN THE INDENTURE.

(h) By its acceptance of any Note bearing the Restricted Security Legend, each Holder of such a Note acknowledges the restrictions on transfer of such Note set forth in this Indenture and in the Restricted Security Legend and agrees that it will transfer such Note only as provided in this Indenture.

None of the Trustee or any Agent shall have any obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any transfers between or among Agent Members or Beneficial Owners of interests in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

The Registrar shall retain copies of all letters, notices and other written communications received pursuant to Section 2.06 or this Section 2.07. The Issuers shall have the right to inspect and make copies of all such letters, notices or other written communications at any reasonable time upon the giving of reasonable written notice to the Registrar.

(i) Definitive Notes shall be transferable only upon the surrender of a Definitive Note for registration of transfer. When a Definitive Note is presented to the applicable Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to register a transfer, the Registrar shall register the transfer as requested if its requirements for such transfers are met. When Definitive Notes are presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Definitive Notes of other denominations, the Registrar shall make the exchange as requested if the same requirements are met. To permit registration of transfers and exchanges, the Issuers shall execute and, upon receipt of an Issuer Order, the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Notes at the Registrar’s or co-registrar’s request.

(j) The Issuers shall not be required to make, and the Registrar need not register transfers or exchanges of, Definitive Notes (i) that have been selected for redemption (except, in the case of Definitive Notes to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed) or (ii) for a period of 15 days prior to a selection of Definitive Notes to be redeemed.

(k) Prior to the due presentation for registration of transfer of any Definitive Note, the Issuers, the Trustee, the applicable Paying Agent, the Registrar or any co-registrar may deem and treat the Person in whose name a Definitive Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Definitive Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal, interest or Additional Amounts, if any, on such Definitive Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Definitive Note is overdue, and none of the Issuers, the Trustee, the applicable Paying Agent, the Registrar or any co-registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

(l) No service charge will be made for any registration or transfer or exchange of the Notes, but the Trustee, the Registrar and the applicable Paying Agent and Transfer Agents may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Issuers may require a Holder to pay all taxes and fees required by law or permitted by this Section 2.07.

(m) All Notes issued upon any transfer or exchange pursuant to the terms of this Indenture will evidence the same debt and will be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as the Notes surrendered upon such transfer or exchange.

(n) Holders of Notes (or holders of interests therein) and prospective purchasers designated by such Holders (or holders of interests therein) will have the right to obtain from the Issuers upon request by such Holders (or holders of interests therein) or prospective purchasers, during any period in which the Issuers are not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, or is exempt from reporting pursuant to 12g3-2(b) under the Exchange Act, the information required by clause d(4)(i) of Rule 144A in connection with any transfer or proposed transfer of such Notes.

SECTION 2.08 Replacement Notes. If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder claims that such Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Issuers shall issue and, upon receipt of an Issuer Order, the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note in such form as the Note being replaced if the requirements of the Trustee, the Registrar and the Issuers are met. If required by the Trustee, the Registrar and the Issuers, such Holder must provide an indemnity bond or other indemnity, sufficient in the judgment of the Issuers, the Registrar and the Trustee, to protect the Issuers, the Registrar, the Trustee and any Agent from any loss which any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuers may charge such Holder for its reasonable, out-of-pocket expenses in replacing a Note, including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel. Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Issuers. The provisions of this Section 2.08 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement of mutilated, destroyed, lost, stolen or taken Notes.

SECTION 2.09 Outstanding Notes. Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes that have been authenticated by the Trustee except those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the Global Note effected in accordance with the provisions hereof and those described in this Section as not outstanding. Subject to Section 2.10, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuers or any of its Affiliates holds the Note.

If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.08 (other than a mutilated Note surrendered for replacement), it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a bona fide purchaser. A mutilated Note ceases to be outstanding upon surrender of such Note and replacement thereof pursuant to Section 2.08.

If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01, it ceases to be outstanding and interest, and Additional Amounts, if any, on it cease to accrue.

If on a redemption date or the Maturity Date the applicable Paying Agent holds cash sufficient to pay all of the principal, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, due on the Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes cease to be outstanding and interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on such Notes cease to accrue.

SECTION 2.10 Treasury Notes. In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Issuers or their Affiliates shall be disregarded, except that, for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be disregarded.

SECTION 2.11 Temporary Notes. Until permanent Definitive Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuers may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Definitive Notes upon receipt of an Issuer Order. Such Officer’s Certificate shall specify the amount of temporary Definitive Notes to be authenticated and the date on which the temporary Definitive Notes are to be authenticated. Temporary Definitive Notes shall be substantially in the form of permanent

Definitive Notes but may have variations that the Issuers consider appropriate for temporary Definitive Notes. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuers shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate upon receipt of an Issuer Order pursuant to Section 2.02 permanent Definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Definitive Notes. Holders of temporary Definitive Notes shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture.

SECTION 2.12 Cancellation. The Issuers at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the applicable Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee, in accordance with customary procedures, or at the direction of the Trustee, the Registrar or the applicable Paying Agent, and no one else, shall cancel and, at the written direction of the Issuers, shall dispose of (subject to the record retention requirements of the Exchange Act) all Notes surrendered for transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation; provided, however, that the Trustee may, but shall not be required to, dispose of such canceled Notes. Subject to Section 2.08, the Issuers may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. If the Issuers shall acquire any of the Notes, such acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of the Indebtedness represented by such Notes unless and until the same are surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation pursuant to this Section 2.12.

SECTION 2.13 Defaulted Interest. If the Issuers default in a payment of interest on the Notes, they shall pay the defaulted interest, plus (to the extent lawful) any interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Holders thereof as of the original Record Date; provided, however, if such default in payment of interest continues for 30 days, the Issuers shall (in the case of Definitive Notes) establish a subsequent special Record Date, which date shall be the fifteenth day next preceding the date fixed by the Issuers for the payment of defaulted interest. If no special Record Date is required to be established pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, (i) in the case of Definitive Notes, Holders of record on the original Record Date shall be entitled to such payment of defaulted interest and any such interest payable on the defaulted interest and (ii) in the case of Global Notes, Holders on the Default Interest Payment Date (as defined in the next sentence) shall be entitled to such defaulted interest and any such interest payable on the defaulted interest. The Issuers shall notify the Trustee and the applicable Paying Agent in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment (a “Default Interest Payment Date”), and the Issuers shall deposit with the Trustee or the applicable Paying Agent an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such defaulted interest no later than 10:00 a.m. London time, with respect to the Sterling Notes, or 10:00 a.m. New York City time, with respect to the U.S. Dollar Notes, on such proposed Default Interest Payment Date with respect to defaulted interest to be paid on the Note. In the case of Definitive Notes, at least 15 days before the subsequent special Record Date, if applicable, the Issuers shall deliver to Holders in accordance with Section 11.01 a notice that states the subsequent special Record Date, the payment date and the amount of defaulted interest, and interest payable on such defaulted interest, if any, to be paid. In the case of Global Notes, at least 15 days before the Default Interest Payment Date, the Issuers shall deliver to Holders in accordance with Section 11.01 a notice that states the Default Interest Payment Date, the payment date and the amount of defaulted interest, and interest payable on such defaulted interest, if any, to be paid.

SECTION 2.14 Issuance of Additional Notes. After the Issue Date, the Issuers shall be entitled to issue Additional Notes under this Indenture, which Notes shall have identical terms as the Original U.S. Dollar Notes or Original Sterling Notes, as the case may be, other than with respect to the date of issuance, issue price, and, if applicable, initial interest payment date and initial interest accrual date. Except as specified otherwise herein, all Notes issued under this Indenture shall be treated as a single class for all purposes of this Indenture including waivers, amendments and other modifications.

SECTION 2.15 CUSIP Numbers, ISINs and Common Codes. The Issuers in issuing the Notes may use CUSIP Numbers, ISINs or Common Codes, and if so, the Trustee shall use the CUSIP Numbers, ISINs and Common Codes in notices of redemption or exchange as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of such numbers or codes printed in the notice or on the Notes, and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes and any such redemption or exchange shall not be affected by an defect in or omission of such numbers or codes. The Issuers shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in any CUSIP Number, ISIN or Common Code.

SECTION 2.16 Deposit of Moneys. Prior to 10:00 a.m. London time, with respect to the Sterling Notes, and 10:00 a.m. New York City time, with respect to the U.S. Dollar Notes, on each interest payment date and Maturity Date, the Issuer shall have deposited with the Trustee or the applicable Paying Agent in immediately available funds money sufficient to make cash payments, if any, due on such interest payment date or Maturity Date, as the case may be, on all U.S. Dollar Notes or Sterling Notes, as applicable, then outstanding.

SECTION 2.17 Certain Matters Relating to Global Notes. (a) Members of or participants in DTC or a Clearing Agency (“Agent Members”) shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by DTC or its nominee or the Common Depositary or its nominee, as applicable, or under the Global Note, and DTC or its nominee or the Common Depositary or its nominee, as applicable, may be treated by the Issuers, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuers or the Trustee as the absolute owner of the applicable Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Issuers, the Trustee or any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by DTC or its nominee or the Common Depositary or its nominee, as applicable, or impair, as between DTC and its Agent Members or the Clearing Agency and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of a beneficial interest in any Note.

(b) The holder of a beneficial interest in any Global Note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any person, including DTC or the Clearing Agencies, as applicable, and their 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.

(c) None of the Issuer, the Trustee and each Agent shall have any responsibility or obligation to any beneficial owner in a Global Note, an Agent Member or other Person with respect to the accuracy of the records of a Clearing Agency or DTC or its nominee or of any Agent Member, with respect to any ownership interest in the Securities or with respect to the

delivery to any Agent Member, beneficial owner or other Person (other than a Clearing Agency or DTC) of any notice (including any notice of redemption) or the payment of any amount, under or with respect to such Securities. All notices and communications to be given to the Holders and all payments to be made to Holders under the Notes and this Indenture shall be given or made only to or upon the order of the registered holders (which shall be a Clearing Agency or DTC or its nominee in the case of the Global Note). The rights of beneficial owners in the Global Note shall be exercised only through a Clearing Agency or DTC subject to the Applicable Procedures. The Issuer, the Trustee and each Agent shall be entitled to rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by a Clearing Agency or DTC, as applicable, with respect to its members, participants and any beneficial owners. The Issuer, the Trustee and each Agent shall be entitled to deal with each Clearing Agency and DTC, and any nominee thereof, that is the registered holder of any Global Note for all purposes of this Indenture relating to such Global Note (including the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest and the giving of instructions or directions by or to the owner or holder of a beneficial ownership interest in such Global Note) as the sole holder of such Global Note and shall have no obligations to the beneficial owners thereof. None of the Issuer, the Trustee and each Agent shall have any responsibility or liability for any acts or omissions of a Clearing Agency or DTC with respect to such Global Note, for the records of any such depositary, including records in respect of beneficial ownership interests in respect of any such Global Note, for any transactions between the a Clearing Agency or DTC, as applicable, and any Agent Member or between or among a Clearing Agency or DTC, any such Agent Member and/or any holder or owner of a beneficial interest in such Global Note, or for any transfers of beneficial interests in any such Global Note.

(b) The Issuers and the Agents acknowledge and agree that in the event of an Event of Default, the Trustee may, by notice in writing to the Issuers and the Agents, require that the Agents act as agents of, and take instructions exclusively from, the Trustee. Until they have received such written notice from the Trustee, the Agents shall act solely as agents of the Issuers.

(c) No Agent shall be liable for interest on any money received by it. Moneys held by Agents need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

(d) No Agent shall be required to make any payment under this Indenture unless and until it has received in advance the full amount to be paid. To the extent that an Agent has made a payment for which it did not receive in advance the full amount, the Issuers will reimburse the Agent the full amount of any shortfall.

The Trustee or Issuers may remove any Agent at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice to any Agent. Upon such notice, a successor Agent shall be appointed by the Issuers, who shall provide written notice of such to the Trustee. Such successor Agent shall become the Agent hereunder upon the resignation or removal date specified in such notice. If the Issuers are unable to replace the applicable resigning Agent within 30 days after such notice, the Agent may, in its sole discretion, deliver any funds then held hereunder in its possession to the Trustee or may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Agent or for other appropriate relief. The costs and expenses (including its counsels’ fees and expenses) properly incurred by the Agent in connection with such proceeding shall be paid by the Issuers. Upon receipt of the identity of the successor Agent, the Agent shall deliver any funds then held hereunder to the successor Agent, less the Agent’s fees, costs and expenses or other obligations owed to the Agent. Upon its resignation and delivery of any funds, the Agent shall be discharged of and from any and all further obligations arising in connection with this Indenture, but shall continue to enjoy the benefit of Section 7.06 hereof.

The Issuers shall give notice of redemption as required under the relevant section of this Article III pursuant to which such Notes are being redeemed.

SECTION 3.03 Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed. If less than all of the Notes of any series are to be redeemed at any time, selection of such Notes for redemption will be made by the Trustee, the applicable Paying Agent or the Registrar in compliance with the requirements of the principal securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes of such series are listed, and in compliance with the requirements of DTC, with respect to the U.S. Dollar Notes, or each Clearing Agency, as applicable, or their Common Depositary, with respect to the Sterling Notes, or if such Notes are not so listed or such exchange prescribes no method of selection and the Notes are not held through DTC or a Clearing Agency, as applicable, or such Clearing Agency or DTC, as applicable, prescribes no method of selection, on a pro rata basis, by lot, or such other method as the Trustee deems fair and reasonable; provided, however, that no U.S. Dollar Note of $200,000 in aggregate principal amount or less shall be redeemed in part and no Sterling Note of £100,000 in aggregate principal amount or less shall be redeemed in part.

SECTION 3.04 Redemption for Taxation Reasons. If as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, or any change in the official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings (including a ruling by a court of competent jurisdiction in the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction), which change or amendment is announced and becomes effective on or after the date of the Offering Memorandum (or, in the case of a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction that becomes a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction after the date of the Offering Memorandum, after the date such jurisdiction becomes a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction), the

Issuers become or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts on a series of the Notes on the next applicable payment date (such change or amendment, a “Change in Tax Law”), the Issuers may, at their option, redeem such series of the Notes, in whole but not in part, on not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date and all Additional Amounts, if any, then due and which will become due on the redemption date as a result of the redemption or otherwise if the Issuers determine, in their business judgment, that the obligation to pay such Additional Amounts cannot be avoided by the use of reasonable measures available to the Issuers, not including substitution of the obligor under the Notes. Prior to the publication or mailing of any notice of redemption of the relevant Notes pursuant to this Section 3.04 (and as a condition to such redemption), the Issuers will deliver to the Trustee (i) an opinion of independent tax counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee to the effect that the Issuers are or will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts as a result of a Change in Tax Law and (ii) an Officer’s Certificate stating that the Issuers are entitled to redeem such series of the Notes pursuant to their terms and that the Issuers cannot avoid their obligation to pay Additional Amounts by taking reasonable measures available to the Issuers. If the Issuers redeem a series of the Notes under the circumstances described in this Section 3.04, then, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary set forth in this Section 3.04, payments of interest on the Notes on any interest payment date falling on or prior to the applicable redemption date for the Notes will be payable to the Holders of the Notes (or one or more predecessor Notes) of record at the close of business on the relevant Record Date.

The Trustee will accept and shall be entitled to rely absolutely and without further inquiry on such opinion and Officer’s Certificate as sufficient existence of the satisfaction of the conditions precedent in this Section 3.04, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on the Holders.

SECTION 3.05 Notice of Redemption. At least 10 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Issuers shall deliver to Holders in accordance with Section 11.01, a notice of redemption. Each notice for redemption shall identify the Notes to be redeemed and shall state:

(1) the redemption date or, if such notice states the redemption date may be delayed until such time as any and all applicable conditions precedent have been satisfied, the anticipated redemption date as of the time of the notice;

(2) the redemption prices and the amount of accrued and unpaid interest, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any, to be paid as of the redemption date that is anticipated as of the time of the notice (subject to the right of Holders of record of Definitive Notes on the relevant Record Date to receive interest and Additional Amounts, if any, due on the relevant interest payment date);

(3) the name and address of the applicable Paying Agent;

(4) that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the applicable Paying Agent to collect the redemption price plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any;

(5) that, unless the Issuers default in making the redemption payment, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on Notes called for redemption cease to accrue on and after the redemption date, and the only remaining right of the Holders of such Notes is to receive payment of the redemption price upon surrender to the applicable Paying Agent of the Notes redeemed;

(a) (i) if any Global Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Note to be redeemed and that, after the redemption date, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, shall cease to accrue on the portion called for redemption, and upon surrender of such Global Note, the Global Note with a notation on Schedule A thereof adjusting the principal amount thereof to be equal to the unredeemed portion, will be returned and (ii) if any Definitive Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Note to be redeemed, and that, after the redemption date, upon surrender of such Definitive Note, a new Definitive Note or Notes in aggregate principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued in the name of the Holder thereof, upon cancellation of the original Note;

(b) if fewer than all the Notes are to be redeemed, the identification of the particular Notes (or portion thereof) to be redeemed, as well as the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be outstanding after such partial redemption;

(d) the CUSIP, ISIN or Common Code, and that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP, ISIN or Common Code, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes; and

(e) if the redemption is conditional on any events, a detailed explanation of such conditions.

If and for long as any Notes are listed on the Official List of the Irish Stock Exchange and admitted to trading on the Global Exchange Market and the rules of the Irish Stock Exchange so require, any such notice to the Holders of the relevant Notes shall also be published in a newspaper (and, in the case of Definitive Notes, shall be mailed to Holders by first-class mail, postage prepaid, at their respective addresses as they appear on the registration books of the applicable Registrar) having a general circulation in Ireland (which is expected to be The Irish Times) or, to the extent and in the manner permitted by such rules, posted on the official website of the Irish Stock Exchange and, in connection with any redemption, the Issuers will notify the Irish Stock Exchange of any change in the principal amount of Notes outstanding.

Any redemption notice may, at the Issuers’ discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including completion of an Equity Offering or other corporate transaction. If such redemption 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 Issuers’ discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time 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 by the redemption date as so delayed.

The Issuers may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and performance of the Issuers’ obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.

At the Issuers’ request days before the redemption date (or such shorter period as may be acceptable to the Trustee), the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Issuers’ name and at the Issuers’ expense; provided, however, that the Issuers shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the following items and that such redemption will comply with the conditions hereof.

SECTION 3.06 Effect of Notice of Redemption. Once notice of redemption is given in accordance with Section 3.05, Notes called for redemption become due and payable on the redemption date and at the redemption price plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any; provided that any redemption and notice may, at the Issuers’ discretion, be subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, and such notice shall state that, in the Issuers’ discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall have been satisfied. Upon surrender to the Trustee or applicable Paying Agent, such Notes called for redemption shall be paid at the redemption price (which shall include accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any, to the redemption date), but (in the case of Definitive Notes) installments of interest, the maturity of which is on or prior to the redemption date, shall be payable to Holders of record at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates.

SECTION 3.07 Deposit of Redemption Price. Prior to 10:00 a.m. London time, with respect to the Sterling Notes, or 10:00 a.m. New York City time, with respect to the U.S. Dollar Notes, as applicable, on the redemption date (or pursuant to such other arrangements as may be agreed with the Trustee), the Issuers shall deposit with the Trustee or its designated Paying Agent (which shall be the applicable Paying Agent unless otherwise notified to the Issuers by the Trustee) an amount of cash sufficient to pay the redemption price plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any, of all Notes to be redeemed on that date. The applicable Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Issuers any cash in Sterling with respect to the Sterling Notes and in U.S. Dollars with respect to the U.S. Dollar Notes so deposited which is not required for that purpose upon the written request of the Issuers.

If the Issuers comply with this Article III, then, unless the Issuers default in the payment of such redemption price plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes to be redeemed will cease to accrue on and after the applicable redemption date, whether or not such Notes are presented for payment. With respect to Definitive Notes, if a Definitive Note is redeemed on or after an interest Record Date but on or prior to the related interest payment date, then any accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such Record Date. If any Note called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender for redemption because of the failure of the Issuers to comply with this Article III, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01.

SECTION 3.08 Notes Redeemed in Part. Upon surrender and cancellation of a Definitive Note that is redeemed in part, the Issuers shall execute and upon receipt of an Issuer Order the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder (at the Issuers’ expense) a new Definitive Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Definitive Note surrendered and canceled; provided, however, that each such Definitive Note shall be in a principal amount at maturity of $200,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof with respect to the U.S. Dollar Notes, and £100,000 or an integral multiple of £1,000 with respect to the Sterling Notes. Upon surrender of a Global Note that is redeemed in part, the applicable Paying Agent shall forward such Global Note to the Trustee who shall make a notation on Schedule A thereof to reduce the principal amount of such Global Note to an amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Global Note surrendered; provided, however, that each such Global Note shall be in a principal amount at maturity of $200,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof with respect to the U.S. Dollar Notes, and £100,000 or an integral multiple of £1,000 with respect to the Sterling Notes.

SECTION 3.09 Special Mandatory Redemption. If (i) the Escrow Agent has not received an officer’s certificate pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement on or prior to the Escrow Longstop Date to release the proceeds of the Original Notes in connection with completion of the Acquisition, (ii) the Issuers notify the Escrow Agent, the Escrow Security Agent and the Trustee in writing that the Parent has announced its intention to abandon the Acquisition or, in the reasonable judgment of the Parent, the Acquisition will not be completed by the Escrow Longstop Date or (iii) the Issuers notify the Escrow Agent, the Escrow Security Agent and the Trustee, or the Trustee notifies the Issuers, the Escrow Agent and the Escrow Security Agent, in each case, in writing that an Event of Default under Section 6.01(5) or (6) has occurred in respect of the Issuer (each of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of this Section 3.09, a “Special Mandatory Redemption Event”), then the Issuers shall redeem all of the Notes (the “Special Mandatory Redemption”) at a price (the “Special Mandatory Redemption Price”) equal to 100% of the issue price of the Notes, plus accrued but unpaid interest, if any, from the Issue Date to, but excluding, the Special Mandatory Redemption Date (subject to the right of the Holders on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date).

Written notice of the Special Mandatory Redemption will be delivered by the Issuers, no later than one Business Day following the Special Mandatory Redemption Event, to the Trustee, Paying Agents, the Escrow Agent and Holders, and will provide that the Notes shall be redeemed on a date that is no later than the fifth Business Day after such notice is given by the Issuers (the “Special Mandatory Redemption Date”). On or prior to the Special Mandatory Redemption Date, the Escrow Agent shall pay the Escrowed Property to the relevant Paying Agent in accordance with the terms of the Indenture for payment to each Holder on the Special Mandatory Redemption Date in connection with the Special Mandatory Redemption.

If the amount of the Special Mandatory Redemption Price plus accrued and unpaid interest from the Issue Date to, but excluding, the Special Mandatory Redemption Date for the U.S. Dollar Notes or Sterling Notes exceeds the Escrowed Property, the Issuers will pay such excess to the relevant Paying Agents prior to 10:00 a.m. London time, with respect to the Sterling Notes, or 10:00 a.m. New York City time, with respect to the U.S. Dollar Notes, as applicable, on the Special Mandatory Redemption Date.

To the extent any Subsidiary of the Issuer is required to provide a Guarantee, such Guarantee will be limited as necessary to recognize certain defenses generally available to guarantors or other considerations under applicable law, including fraudulent conveyance.

SECTION 4.06 Negative Pledge. The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries (including the Co-Issuer) to, secure any Indebtedness for money borrowed by placing a Lien (other than a Permitted Lien) on any property or assets now or hereafter owned or leased by the Issuer or any Subsidiary of the Issuer (including the Co-Issuer) or on any Capital Stock of any Subsidiary of the Issuer (including the Co-Issuer) without equally and ratably securing (or securing on a senior basis, in the case of a Lien securing Indebtedness for money borrowed that is by its terms expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or any Guarantee) all of the Notes.

Any Lien created for the benefit of the Holders pursuant to this Section 4.06 shall provide by its terms that such Lien shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of the Lien relating to such Indebtedness that gave rise to the obligation to so secure the Notes.

SECTION 4.07 Waiver of Stay; Extension or Usury Laws. The Issuers and each Guarantor covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or

extension law or any usury law or other law that would prohibit or forgive the Issuers or any Guarantor from paying all or any portion of the principal of 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 it may lawfully do so) the Issuers and each Guarantor hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it 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.

SECTION 4.08 Reports. (a) For so long as any Notes are outstanding, the Issuer will file with the Commission such annual reports and such information, documents and other reports that the Issuer would be required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) if the Issuer were so subject, and such documents will be filed with the Commission on or prior to the respective dates (after giving effect to any extensions under Rule 12b-25 (or any successor rule) of the Exchange Act) (the “Required Filing Dates”) by which the Issuer would be required so to file such documents if the Issuer were so subject, unless, in any case, if such filings are not then permitted by the Commission.

If such filings with the Commission are not then permitted by the Commission, or such filings are not generally available on the Internet free of charge, the Issuer will, within 15 days of each Required Filing Date, transmit by mail to Holders, as their names and addresses appear in the Note register, without cost to such Holders, and file with the Trustee copies of the annual reports and such information, documents and other reports that the Issuer would be required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act if the Issuers were subject to such Section 13(a) or 15(d), and promptly upon written request, supply copies of such documents to any prospective holder or beneficial owner at the Issuers’ cost.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) none of the foregoing reports shall be required to comply with (A) Rule 3-09, Rule 3-10 or Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X, (B) Regulation G or Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K with respect to any non-GAAP measures contained therein or (C) Section 302 or Section 404 of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002, or related Items 307 and 308 of Regulation S-K and (2)(A) if any parent of the Issuer becomes a Guarantor, the reports, information and other documents required to be filed and provided as described above may be those of the parent, rather than those of the Issuer, so long as such filings would satisfy the Commission’s requirements; provided that such reports include a reasonable explanation of the material differences between the assets, liabilities and results of operations of such parent and its consolidated Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and the Issuer and its Subsidiaries on the other hand or (B) the reports, information and other documents required to be filed and provided as described above may be those of any parent of the Issuer (regardless if such parent is or is not a Guarantor); provided that if and so long as that parent has Independent Operations, such reports include a reasonable explanation of the material differences between the assets, liabilities and results of operations of that parent and its consolidated Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and the Issuer and its Subsidiaries on the other hand.

In addition, to the extent not satisfied by the reports required by this Section 4.08 or otherwise made publicly-available by the Issuer, the Issuer will furnish to Holders thereof and prospective investors in the Notes, upon their request, the information, if any, required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) (or any successor provision) of the Securities Act.

The Issuers will also make available copies of all reports required by this provision if and so long as the Notes are listed on the Irish Stock Exchange and the rules of the Irish Stock Exchange so require, at the specified office of the listing agent in Ireland during normal business hours on any weekday.

Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, the Issuer will not be deemed to have failed to comply with any of its obligations described above for purposes of an Event of Default under Section 6.01(c) until 60 days after the date any report under this Section 4.08 is due. To the extent any information is not provided within the time periods specified in this Section 4.08 and such information is subsequently provided, the Issuer will be deemed to have satisfied its obligations with respect thereto at such time and any Default with respect thereto will be deemed to have been cured.

The Trustee shall have no obligation whatsoever to determine whether or not such information, documents or reports have been posted on the Issuer’s website or filed with the Commission. The posting or delivery of any such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute actual or constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Issuers’ compliance with any of the covenants under this Indenture (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on an Officer’s Certificate).

SECTION 4.09 Change of Control Repurchase Event. (a) If a Change of Control Repurchase Event occurs, the Issuers will make an offer to repurchase all of the Notes (the “Change of Control Offer”) at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of each of the Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but excluding, the date of repurchase (the “Change of Control Payment”) (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date).

Unless the Issuers have unconditionally exercised their right to redeem all the applicable series of Notes and given notice of redemption as described under Section 3.01 of this Indenture and all conditions to such redemption have been satisfied or waived, no later than the date that is 60 days after any Change of Control Repurchase Event, the Issuers will mail a notice to each Holder and the Trustee describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control Repurchase Event and offering to repurchase Notes on a date (the “Change of Control Payment Date”) specified in such notice, which date shall be no earlier than 10 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed, pursuant to the procedures required by the Indenture and described in such notice.

(b) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuers will, to the extent lawful:

(1) accept for payment all Notes or portions thereof (in integral multiples of $1,000 in the case of the U.S. Dollar Notes and in integral multiples of £1,000 in the case of the Sterling Notes) properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; provided that if, following

repurchase of a portion of such Note, the remaining principal amount of such Note outstanding immediately after such repurchase would be less than $200,000 in the case of a U.S. Dollar Note and £100,000 in the case of a Sterling Note, then the portion of such Note so repurchased shall be reduced so that the remaining principal amount of such Note outstanding immediately after repurchase is $200,000 in the case of a U.S. Dollar Note and £100,000 in the case of a Sterling Note;

(2) deposit with the relevant Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all U.S. Dollar Notes or Sterling Notes or portions thereof so tendered; and

(3) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes so accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of such Notes or portions thereof being purchased by the Issuer in accordance with the terms of this covenant.

(c) The applicable Paying Agent will promptly deliver to each Holder of any Notes so tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes and the Trustee or the Registrar will, upon receipt of an Issuer Order, promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that each such new U.S. Dollar Note will be in a principal amount of $200,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof and each such new Sterling Note will be in a principal amount of £100,000 or an integral multiple of £1,000 in excess thereof.

(d) In the case of Definitive Notes, if the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after a Record Date and on or before the related interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, will be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest or Additional Amounts will be payable to Holders who tender pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; in the case of Global Notes, the Issuer will pay accrued and unpaid interest to the Change of Control Payment Date to the Holder on such date.

(e) If and for so long as the Notes are listed on the Official List of the Irish Stock Exchange and admitted for trading on the Global Exchange Market and the rules of the Irish Stock Exchange so require, the Issuers will publish a public announcement with respect to the results of any Change of Control Offer in a leading newspaper having a general circulation in Ireland (which is expected to be The Irish Times) or, to the extent and in the manner permitted by such rules, post such notice on the official website of the Irish Stock Exchange.

(f) This Section 4.09 will be applicable regardless of whether any other provisions of this Indenture are applicable.

(g) The Issuers will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control Repurchase Event if (i) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with this Section 4.09 applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuers and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer or (ii) a notice of redemption for all of the outstanding Notes has been given pursuant to Article III and all conditions have been satisfied

and waived unless and until there is a default in the payment of the applicable redemption price plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any thereon to, but excluding, the proposed redemption date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Indenture or the Notes, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control Repurchase Event, conditional upon the consummation of the Change of Control, so long as a definitive agreement has been executed that contains terms and provisions that would otherwise result in a Change of Control upon completion of the transactions contemplated thereby.

(h) If Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in a Change of Control Offer and the Issuers, or any third party making a Change of Control Offer in lieu of the Issuers as described in this Section 4.09, repurchases all of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Issuers or such third party will have the right, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, within 30 days following such repurchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer described above, to repurchase all Notes that remain outstanding following such repurchase at a price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but excluding, the date of repurchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date).

(i) Notes repurchased by the Issuer pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will have the status of Notes issued but not outstanding or will be retired and canceled at the option of the Issuer. Notes purchased by a third party pursuant to this Section 4.09 will have the status of Notes issued and outstanding.

(j) The Issuers will comply with the requirements of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act to the extent applicable 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 Repurchase Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 4.09, the Issuers will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.09 by virtue of such conflict.

SECTION 4.10 Additional Amounts. All payments under and with respect to the Notes and the Guarantees will be made by or on behalf of the Issuers and the Guarantors without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature imposed by the United States or any jurisdiction from or through which any payment is made on the Notes or the Guarantees (including the jurisdiction of any Paying Agent), in each case including any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (a “Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction”), unless such withholding or deduction is required by (x) the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction or (y) an official written position regarding the application, administration, interpretation or enforcement of any such laws, regulations or rulings (including, without limitation, a holding by a court of competent jurisdiction or by a taxing authority in the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction). If any such withholding or deduction is required, the Issuers will, subject to the exceptions and limitations set forth below, pay such amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary in order that every net payment on such Note (including payment of the principal

of, and premium and redemption price, if any, and interest on such Note) by or on behalf of the Issuers and the Guarantors (including by a Paying Agent), after such deduction or withholding, will not be less than the amount provided in such Note to be then due and payable; provided, however, that the foregoing obligation to pay Additional Amounts will not apply to:

(1) any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been so imposed but for:

(i) the existence of any present or former connection between the relevant Holder or beneficial owner of such Note (or between a fiduciary, settlor or beneficiary of, or a person holding a power over, such Holder, if such Holder is an estate or a trust, or a member or shareholder of such holder, if such Holder is a partnership or corporation) and the Relevant Taxing Authority, including, without limitation, such Holder or beneficial owner (or such fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, person holding a power, member or shareholder) being or having been a citizen or resident of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction or treated as a resident thereof for tax purposes or being or having been engaged in a trade or business for tax purposes therein or having or having had a permanent establishment therein; or

(ii) such Holder’s or beneficial owner’s past or present status, as applicable (under prior or current law), as a personal holding company, foreign personal holding company, foreign private foundation or other foreign tax exempt organization with respect to the United States, passive foreign investment company, a controlled foreign corporation for U.S. tax purposes that is related to the Issuers directly, indirectly, or constructively through stock ownership, or a corporation that accumulates earnings to avoid U.S. Federal income tax;

(2) any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer, wealth or personal property tax or any similar tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge;

(3) any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for the presentation by the Holder of the applicable Note for payment more than 30 days after the date on which such payment became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof was duly provided for, whichever occurred later;

(4) any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge that is payable otherwise than by withholding from the payment on the Note;

(5) any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge required to be withheld by any Paying Agent from a payment on a Note, if such payment could be made without such withholding by any other Paying Agent;

(6) any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for a failure by the Holder or beneficial owner of the Note to comply with (upon receipt of a written request, with reasonable notice, from the Issuers or a Paying Agent addressed to the Holder) applicable certification, information, documentation, identification or other reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction of the Holder or a beneficial owner of a Note if such compliance is required by statute or regulation of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction or by an applicable tax treaty to which the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction is a party as a precondition to relief or exemption from such tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge;

(7) any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge imposed on a Holder or a beneficial owner that actually or constructively owns 10 percent or more of the combined voting power of all classes of the Issuers’ stock or that is a bank receiving interest on an extension of credit made pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary course of its trade or business; or

(8) any combination of items (1) through (7) of this Section 4.10,

nor shall Additional Amounts be paid with respect to a payment on a Note to a Holder or a beneficial owner that is a fiduciary or partnership or other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment to the extent a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or a member of such partnership or a beneficial owner would not have been entitled to Additional Amounts (or payment of Additional Amounts would not have been necessary) had such beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner been the Holder.

At least 30 days prior to each date on which any payment under or with respect to the Notes is due and payable (unless such obligation to pay Additional Amounts arises after the 45th day prior to the date on which payment under or with respect to the Notes is due and payable, in which case it will be promptly thereafter), if the Issuer will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to such payment, the Issuer will deliver to the Trustee and the Paying Agents an Officer’s Certificate stating that such Additional Amounts will be payable and the amounts so payable and setting forth such other information as is necessary to enable the Trustee and the Paying Agents to pay such Additional Amounts to the holders of such Notes on the payment date.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.10, the Issuers, the Trustee and any person making payments on behalf of the Issuers shall be entitled to deduct and withhold as required, and shall not be required to pay any Additional Amounts with respect to any such withholding or deduction imposed on or in respect of any Note, pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (such Sections commonly referred to as “FATCA”), any treaty, law, regulation or other official guidance enacted by any jurisdiction implementing FATCA, any agreements under Section 1471(b) of the Code, or any law implementing an intergovernmental approach to FATCA.

As used in this Section 4.10, the term “United States” means the United States of America (including the States and the District of Columbia) and its territories, its possessions and other areas subject to its jurisdiction.

Any references in this Indenture or in the Notes to principal, purchase prices in connection with a redemption of Notes, premium, interest, or any other amount payable on or in respect of any of the Notes shall be deemed to include payment of any Additional Amounts payable in respect thereof as set forth herein.

SECTION 4.12 Further Instruments and Acts. Upon request of the Trustee, the Issuer and each Guarantor will execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purpose of this Indenture.

SECTION 4.13 Limitations on Activities of the Co-Issuer. The Co-Issuer may not hold any material assets, become liable for any material obligations, engage in any trade or business, or conduct any business activity, other than (1) the issuance of its Capital Stock to the Issuer or any wholly owned Subsidiary of the Issuer, (2) the incurrence of Indebtedness as a co-obligor or guarantor, as the case may be, of the Notes, the Senior Secured Credit Facilities and any other Indebtedness that is permitted to be incurred under the Indenture and (3) activities incidental thereto.

(b) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity;

and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates the greater of $200.0 million and 12.5% of pro forma Consolidated EBITDA or more;

(5) a court having jurisdiction in the premises enters a decree or order for (i) relief in respect of the Issuer or Co-Issuer, or any of their Significant Subsidiaries or a group of Subsidiaries that, taken together (as of the latest audited consolidated financial statements of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, (ii) appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, examiner, administrator, sequestration or similar official of the Issuer or Co-Issuer, or any of their Significant Subsidiaries or a group of Subsidiaries that, taken together (as of the latest audited consolidated financial statements of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary or for all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Issuer or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or a group of Subsidiaries that, taken together (as of the latest audited consolidated financial statements of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary or (iii) the winding up or liquidation of the affairs of the Issuer or Co-Issuer, or any of their Significant Subsidiaries or a group of Subsidiaries that, taken together (as of the latest audited consolidated financial statements of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary and, in each case, such decree or order shall remain unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive days; or

SECTION 6.02 Acceleration. In the case of an Event of Default arising under Section 6.01(5) or (6) with respect to the Issuer or the Co-Issuer, the Notes shall become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any Event of Default occurs (other than

as specified in the preceding sentence) and is continuing, the Trustee (upon request of Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of Notes then outstanding) shall by notice in writing to the Issuers or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may, by notice in writing to the Issuers and the Trustee, declare the principal of, premium, if applicable, and accrued and unpaid interest, and Additional Amounts, if any, on all Notes to be due and payable and such notice shall specify the respective Event of Default and that such notice is a “notice of acceleration”, and such principal, premium, accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts shall become immediately due and payable. In the event of any Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(4), such Event of Default and all consequences thereof (including, without limitation any acceleration or resulting payment default) shall be annulled, waived and rescinded automatically and without any action by the Trustee or the Holders, if within 30 days after such Event of Default arose, (i) the Indebtedness or guarantee that is the basis for such Event of Default has been discharged, (ii) the creditors on such Indebtedness have rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or action, as the case may be, giving rise to such Event of Default or (iii) if the default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured.

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, interest or Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture.

SECTION 6.04 The Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities. All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Notes may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto.

SECTION 6.05 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes in Section 2.08, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders of Notes is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent or subsequent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

SECTION 6.06 Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Note to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders of Notes may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders of Notes.

SECTION 6.07 Waiver of Past Defaults. Subject to Sections 6.10 and 9.02, at any time after a declaration of acceleration with respect to the Notes as described in Section 6.02, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee, may, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, waive any existing Default or Event of Default and rescind and annul a declaration of acceleration and its consequences if (i) all existing

Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of, premium, if any, interest, Additional Amounts, if any, other monetary obligations on the Notes that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived and (ii) the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction. Such waiver shall not excuse a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest, premium, if any, principal or Additional Amounts, if any, on such Note held by a non-consenting Holder, or in respect of a covenant or a provision which cannot be amended or modified without the consent of all Holders. If the Holders wish to rescind an acceleration or waive a default, any and all fees, costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee in accordance with the terms of this Indenture must first be paid. The Issuers shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the requisite percentage of Holders has consented to such waiver and attaching copies of such consents. When a Default or Event of Default is waived, it is cured and ceases.

SECTION 6.08 Control by Majority. Subject to Section 2.10, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may, by written notice to the Trustee, direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on it. Subject to Section 7.01, however, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with any law or this Indenture or that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of another Holder, or that would involve the Trustee in liability or expense; provided, however, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction. Prior to taking any action under this Indenture, the Trustee will be entitled to indemnification and/or security (including by way of pre-funding) satisfactory to the Trustee in its sole discretion against all losses, liabilities, costs and expenses incurred by it in taking or not taking such action.

SECTION 6.09 Limitation on Suits. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, interest when due, and Additional Amounts, if any, no Holder may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the applicable series of Notes, unless:

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

(3) such Holders have offered the Trustee security (including by way of pre-funding) and/or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee, against any loss, liability or expense;

(4) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt of the request and the offer of security (including by way of pre-funding) or indemnity; and

(5) the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes of the applicable series have not given the Trustee a direction that, in the opinion of the Trustee, is inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period.

SECTION 6.10 Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture (including Section 8.09 hereof), the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of, premium, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on a Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Note, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holders.

SECTION 6.11 Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default in payment of principal, premium, if any, interest or Additional Amounts, if any, specified in clause (a) or clause (b) of Section 6.01 occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuers or any other obligor on the Notes for the whole amount of principal and accrued interest remaining unpaid and Additional Amounts, if any, 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 per annum borne by the Notes and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.06.

SECTION 6.12 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, accountants and experts) and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relating to the Issuers, its creditors or its property or other obligor on the Notes, its creditors and 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, and any custodian in any such judicial proceedings is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agent and counsel, accountants and experts, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.06. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, accountants and experts, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.06 hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties which the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise.

SECTION 6.13 Priorities. If the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article VI or, after an Event of Default, any money or other property distributable in respect of the Issuers’ obligations under this Indenture, it shall pay out the money or property in the following order:

First: to the Trustee, the Agents and their agents and attorneys (including any predecessor Trustee or Agent) for amounts due under Section 7.06, including payment of all compensation, fees, expense and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection;

Second: to Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, respectively; and

Third: to the Issuer, any Guarantor or any other obligor on the Notes, as their interests may appear, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

The Trustee, upon prior notice to the Issuer, may fix a record date and a payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section 6.13; provided that the failure to give any such notice shall not affect the establishment of such record date or payment date for Holders pursuant to this Section 6.13.

SECTION 6.14 Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder of any Note has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Issuer, the Trustee and the Holders of Notes shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders of Notes shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

SECTION 6.15 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 6.15 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.10, or a suit by a Holder or Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes.

TRUSTEE

SECTION 7.01 Duties of Trustee. (a) If an Event of Default actually known to a Trust Officer of the Trustee has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own affairs.

(b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default actually known to the Trustee:

(i) The Trustee and the Agents will perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth herein and no others and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee or the Agents.

(ii) In the absence of bad faith on their part, the Trustee and the Agents may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee or Agent and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. However, in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are required to be furnished to the Trustee or the Agents, the Trustee or the Agents, as applicable, shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts, statements, opinions or conclusions stated therein).

(c) No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligence, or its own willful misconduct or fraud, except that:

(i) This clause (c) does not limit the effect of subsections (b) and (d) of this Section 7.01.

(ii) Neither the Trustee nor Agent shall be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer of such Trustee or Agent, unless it is proved that the Trustee or such Agent was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts.

(iii) The Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.08.

(d) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee or any Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or to take or omit to take any action under this Indenture or take any action at the request or direction of Holders if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds is not assured to it or it does not receive an indemnity and/or security (including by way of pre-funding) satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against such risk, liability, loss, fee or expense which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.

(e) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to this Section 7.01.

(f) Neither the Trustee nor the Agents shall be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee and any Agent may agree in writing with the Issuers. Money held in trust by the Trustee or any Agent need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

(g) Any provision hereof relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee or Agent shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 7.01.

(h) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including its rights to be indemnified or secured (including by way of prefunding), are extended to, and shall be enforceable by the Trustee in each of its capacities it which it may serve, and to each Agent, custodian and other person employed to act hereunder.

SECTION 7.02 Rights of Trustee. Subject to Section 7.01:

(a) The Trustee and each Agent may rely conclusively on and shall be fully protected from acting or refraining from acting based upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, approval, appraisal, bond, debenture, note, coupon, security, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document believed by them to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper person. Neither the Trustee nor any Agent shall be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, approval, appraisal, bond, debenture, note, coupon, security, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee or its Agent, as the case may be, in its discretion, may make reasonable further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters stated in such document and if the Trustee or its Agent as the case may be, shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Issuers, at reasonable times during normal business hours, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost of the Issuers and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation.

(b) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice or any knowledge of any matter (including Defaults or Events of Default) unless written notice thereof is received by a Trust Officer of the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office and such notice references the Notes generally, the Issuers or this Indenture.

(c) Any request, direction, order or demand of the Issuers mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate or Issuer Order, in the case of the Issuers, and any resolution of the Board of Directors of the Issuers may be sufficiently evidenced by a resolution of the respective Board of Directors.

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

(e) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both, which shall conform to the provisions of Sections 11.02 and 11.03. Neither the Trustee nor any Agent shall be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such certificate or opinion.

(f) The Trustee or any Agent may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys and the Trustee and the Agents shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder.

(g) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it reasonably believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture.

(h) The Trustee or any Agent may consult with counsel of its selection and the advice or opinion of such counsel as to matters of law shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.

(i) The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the performance of its duties or the exercise of its powers under this Indenture or the Notes. For the avoidance of doubt, the Trustee shall have no obligation to determine whether any direction or action by the Holder is unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders.

(j) The Trustee shall have no duty to inquire as to the performance of the covenants of the Issuer or its Subsidiaries (including the Co-Issuer). Delivery of reports, information and documents to the Trustee under Section 4.08 hereof is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of the foregoing shall not constitute actual or constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Issuers’ compliance with any of their covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officer’s Certificates).

(k) The Trustee shall not have any obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance, and shall not be responsible or liable for compliance with restrictions on transfer, exchange, redemption, purchase or repurchase, as applicable, of minimum denominations imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law or regulation with respect to any transfer, exchange, redemption, purchase or repurchase, as applicable, of any interest in any Notes, but may at its sole discretion choose to do so.

(l) In the event the Trustee or any Agent receives conflicting, unclear or equivocal instructions, the Trustee or Agent shall be entitled to not take any action until such instructions have been resolved or clarified to its satisfaction and the Trustee or Agent shall not become liable in any way to any person for any failure to comply with any such conflicting, unclear or equivocal instruction.

(m) In the event the Trustee receives inconsistent or conflicting requests and indemnity from two or more groups of Holders, each representing less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, the Trustee, in its sole discretion, may determine what action, if any, will be taken and shall not incur any liability for its failure to act until such inconsistency or conflict is, in its reasonable opinion, resolved.

(n) The permissive right of the Trustee to take the actions permitted by this Indenture shall not be construed as an obligation or duty to do so.

(o) The Trustee will not be liable to any person if prevented or delayed in performing any of its obligations or discretionary functions under this Indenture by reason of any present or future law applicable to it, by any governmental or regulatory authority or by any circumstances beyond its control.

(p) The Trustee may request that the Issuers deliver a certificate setting forth the names of the individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture, which certificate may be signed by any person authorized to sign an Officer’s Certificate, including any person specified as so authorized in any such certificate previously delivered and not superseded.

(q) The Trustee may refrain from taking any action in any jurisdiction if the taking of such action in that jurisdiction would, in its opinion (based upon legal advice in the relevant jurisdiction), be contrary to any law of that jurisdiction or, to the extent applicable, the State of New York.

(r) The Trustee may assume without inquiry in the absence of actual knowledge that the Issuer is duly complying with its obligations contained in this Indenture required to be performed and observed by it, and that no Default or Event of Default or other event which would require repayment of the Notes has occurred.

(s) The Trustee may refuse to follow any direction of the Holders that conflicts with law or this Indenture or that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability.

(t) It may not be possible for the Trustee to take certain actions in relation to the Notes and, accordingly, in such circumstances the Trustee will be unable to take action, notwithstanding the provision of an indemnity to it, and it will be for Holders to take action directly.

(u) Notwithstanding anything else herein contained, the Trustee and the Paying Agents may refrain without liability from doing anything that would or might in its opinion be contrary to any law of any state or jurisdiction (including but not limited to the United States of America or any jurisdiction forming a part of it and England & Wales) or any directive or regulation of any agency of any such state or jurisdiction and may without liability do anything which is, in its opinion, necessary to comply with any such law, directive or regulation; provided, however, that the Trustee or Paying Agents shall notify the Issuers if legally permissible as soon as practicable of any such decision by the Trustee or Paying Agents, as applicable, not to act in accordance with this Section 7.02(u).

SECTION 7.03 Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee, the Paying Agents or any other such agent in its respective individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Issuers or any of their Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee, any Paying Agent or other such agent. However, in the event that the Trustee, any Paying Agent or other such agent acquires any conflicting interest of which it has actual knowledge, it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days or resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights. The Trustee must comply with Sections 7.09 and 7.10.

SECTION 7.04 Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee and the Agents shall not be responsible for and make no representation as to the validity, effectiveness, correctness or adequacy of this Indenture, any Guarantee or the offering materials related to this Indenture or the Notes; it shall not be accountable for the Issuers’ use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Issuers or upon the Issuers’ direction under any provision hereof; it shall not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Agent and it shall not be

responsible for any statement or recital herein of the Issuer, or any document issued in connection with the sale of Notes or any statement in the Notes other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication. The Trustee shall not be responsible to make any calculation with respect to any matter under this Indenture. The Trustee shall have no duty to monitor or investigate the Issuers’ compliance with or the breach of, or cause to be performed or observed, any representation, warranty, or covenant, or agreement of any Person, other than the Trustee, made in this Indenture.

SECTION 7.05 Notice of Default. If an Event of Default or Default occurs and is continuing and of which a Trust Officer of the Trustee has received notice from a Holder or the Issuers at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, the Trustee send to each Holder, as their names and addresses appear on the list of Holders described in Section 2.05, notice of the uncured Default or Event of Default within 60 days after the Trustee receives such notice. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note, including the failure to make payment on the Change of Control Payment Date pursuant to a Change of Control Offer, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interest of the Holders.

SECTION 7.06 Compensation and Indemnity. The Issuers shall, jointly and severally, pay to the Trustee and the Agents from time to time compensation as the Issuers and the Trustee shall from time to time agree upon in writing for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder. The Trustee’s and the Agents’ compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuers shall reimburse the Trustee and the Agent upon request for all disbursements, expenses and advances (including properly incurred fees and expenses of counsel) properly incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for their services. Such expenses shall include the properly incurred compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s and Agents’ accountants, experts and counsel and any taxes or other expenses incurred by a trust created pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof.

The Issuers shall, jointly and severally, indemnify each of the Trustee, any predecessor Trustee and the Agents (which, for purposes of this Section 7.06, include such Trustee’s and Agents’ affiliates, officers, directors, employees and agents) and in any other capacity the Trustee may serve hereunder for, and hold them harmless against, any and all loss, damage, claim, liability or expense, including the fees and expenses of counsel, including taxes (other than taxes based on the income of the Trustee) incurred by the Trustee or an Agent without negligence or willful misconduct or fraud on its part, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable decision in connection with acceptance of administration of this trust and exercise of performance of its powers or duties under this Indenture, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against any claim (whether asserted by the Issuers, or any Holder or any other Person) and the properly incurred expenses and attorneys’ fees and expenses of defending itself against any claim of liability arising hereunder. The Trustee and the Agents shall notify the Issuers promptly of any claim asserted against the Trustee or such Agent for which it may seek indemnity. However, the failure by the Trustee or the Agent to so notify the Issuers shall not relieve the Issuers of their obligations hereunder. The Issuers shall defend the claim and the Trustee or such Agent shall cooperate in the defense (and may employ its own counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee) at the Issuers’ expense. The Trustee or such Agent may have separate counsel and the Issuers shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Issuers need not pay for any settlement made without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

To secure the Issuers’ payment obligations in this Section 7.06, the Trustee and the Agents shall have a senior Lien prior to the Notes against all money or property held or collected by the Trustee and the Agents, in its capacity as Trustee or Agent, except money or property held for the benefit of the Holders to pay principal or premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest on particular Notes.

When the Trustee or an Agent incurs expenses or renders services after the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in clause (e) of Section 6.01, the expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) and the compensation for the services shall be preferred over the status of the Holders in a proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law and are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law. The Issuers’ obligations under this Section 7.06 and any claim arising hereunder shall survive the termination of this Indenture, the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the resignation or removal of any Trustee or Agent, the discharge of the Issuers’ obligations pursuant to Article VIII and any rejection or termination under any Bankruptcy Law.

SECTION 7.07 Replacement of Trustee. The Trustee and any Agent may resign at any time upon 30 days’ prior written notice to the Issuers. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee or Agent by so notifying the Issuers and the Trustee or such Agent, as the case may be, in writing and may appoint a successor trustee or agent with the Issuers’ consent. A resignation or removal of the Trustee or any Agent and appointment of a successor Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s or Agent’s acceptance of appointment, as the case may be, as provided in this Section. The Issuers may remove the Trustee or an Agent if:

(1) the Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, fails to comply with Section 7.09;

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

(3) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, or its respective property; or

(4) the Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, becomes incapable of acting with respect to its duties hereunder.

If the Trustee or an Agent resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee or Agent for any reason, the Issuers shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Agent, as the case may be. Within one year after the successor Trustee or Agent takes office, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may, with the Issuers’ consent, appoint a successor Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, to replace the successor Trustee or Agent appointed by the Issuers.

A successor Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee or Agent and to the Issuers. Immediately after that, the retiring Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, shall transfer, after payment of all sums then owing to the Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, pursuant to Section 7.06, all property held by it as Trustee or Agent to the successor Trustee or Agent, subject to the Lien provided in Section 7.06, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, shall become effective, and the successor Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee or Agent under this Indenture. A successor Trustee or Agent shall mail notice of its succession to each Holder.

If a successor Trustee or Agent does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee or Agent resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee or Agent (as the case may be), the Issuers or the Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee or Agent.

If the Trustee or Agent after written request by any Holder who has been a Holder for at least six months fails to comply with Section 7.09, such Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, and the appointment of a successor thereto.

Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee or Agent pursuant to this Section 7.07, the Issuers’ obligations under Section 7.06 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, and the Issuers shall pay to any replaced or removed Trustee or Agent all amounts owed under Section 7.06 upon such replacement or removal.

SECTION 7.08 Successor Trustee by Merger, etc.. If the Trustee or Agent consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall, if such resulting, surviving or transferee corporation is otherwise eligible hereunder, be the successor Trustee. In case any Notes shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by consolidation, merger or conversion to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Notes so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Notes.

SECTION 7.09 Eligibility; Disqualification. This Indenture shall at all times have a Trustee that is an entity organized and doing business under the laws of the United States or any state thereof, the United Kingdom or a Member State of the European Union or a political subdivision thereof, that is authorized under examination by federal or state authorities or by the authorities of a Member State of the European Union or a political subdivision thereof. No obligor under the Notes or Person directly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with such obligor shall serve as Trustee.

SECTION 7.10 Disqualification; Conflicting Interests. Within 90 days after obtaining actual knowledge that a conflict of interest exists between the Trustee’s role as a trustee and any other capacity, the Trustee shall either (i) eliminate such conflict of interest or (ii) resign from office; provided, however, that this Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees shall remain valid notwithstanding a conflict of interest of the Trustee.

SECTION 7.11 Force Majeure. In no event shall the Trustee or Agent, in each of its capacities hereunder, be liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under this Indenture because of circumstances beyond its control, including, but not limited to, acts of God, flood, war (whether declared or undeclared), terrorism, fire, riot, embargo and government action, including any laws, ordinances, regulations or the like which restrict or prohibit the providing of the services or the obligations contemplated by this Indenture.

SECTION 7.12 Consequential Loss. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, in no event shall the Trustee or Agent be liable for special, punitive, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to loss of business, goodwill, opportunity or profits of any kind), even if the Trustee has been advised of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

SECTION 7.13 Bail-in. Notwithstanding and to the exclusion of any other term of this Indenture or any other agreements, arrangements, or understandings among the parties hereto, each party hereto acknowledges and accepts that a BRRD Liability arising under this Indenture may be subject to the exercise of Bail-in Powers by the Relevant Resolution Authority, and acknowledges, accepts, and agrees to be bound by:

(a) the effect of the exercise of Bail-in Powers by the Relevant Resolution Authority in relation to any BRRD Liability of the Registrar to the Issuers under this agreement, that (without limitation) may include and result in any of the following, or some combination thereof:

(i) the reduction of all, or a portion, of the BRRD Liability or outstanding amounts due thereon;

(ii) the conversion of all, or a portion, of the BRRD Liability into shares, other securities or other obligations of the Registrar or another person, and the issue to or conferral on the Issuers of such shares, securities or obligations;

(iii) the cancellation of the BRRD Liability;

(iv) the amendment or alteration of any interest, if applicable, thereon, the maturity or the dates on which any payments are due, including by suspending payment for a temporary period;

(b) the variation of the terms of this Indenture, as deemed necessary by the Relevant Resolution Authority, to give effect to the exercise of Bail-in Powers by the Relevant Resolution Authority.

SECTION 8.02 Legal Defeasance and Discharge. Upon the Issuers’ exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the Issuers shall be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes of a series and the Guarantors shall be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to the Guarantees, in each case on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Legal Defeasance means that the Issuers shall be deemed to have paid and discharged all the obligations relating to the outstanding Notes of a series and the Notes of such series shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.06, Section 8.08 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to below in this Section 8.02, and to have satisfied all of their other obligations under such Notes, the Guarantees and this Indenture and cured all then existing Events of Default (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuers, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:

(1) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes of such series to receive payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, interest, Additional Amounts, if any, and premium, on such Notes when such payments are due (including on a redemption date) from the trust created pursuant to this Indenture and as more fully described under Section 8.08;

Subject to compliance with this Article VIII, the Issuers may exercise their option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of their option under Section 8.03 with respect to the Notes of any series.

SECTION 8.03 Covenant Defeasance.

series of Notes shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes).

For the purposes hereof, such Covenant Defeasance means that, (i) with respect to the applicable series of Notes, the Issuers and the Guarantors may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and (ii) payment on the applicable series of Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in clauses (3) (insofar as it relates to Sections 4.03, 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.11, 4.12 and 4.13 hereof), (4), (5) (other than with respect to the Issuers) and (6) (other than with respect to the Issuers) of Section 6.01 hereof.

SECTION 8.04 Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. The following shall be the conditions to the application of either Section 8.02 or Section 8.03 to the outstanding Notes:

(a) the Issuers must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee or such entity designated or appointed (as agent) by the Trustee for this purpose, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, U.S. Government Obligations or a combination thereof for the U.S. Dollar Notes or sterling, U.K. Government Obligations or a combination thereof for the Sterling Notes, or in such amounts as will be sufficient without reinvestment, in the opinion of an internationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, interest, premium and Additional Amounts, if any, on the outstanding applicable series of Notes on the stated maturity or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Issuers must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to maturity or to a particular redemption date;

SECTION 8.05 Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. This Indenture will be discharged, and will cease to be of further effect as to all Notes issued hereunder when either:

(a) (i) all Notes that have been authenticated (except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the Issuers) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or (ii) all Notes that have not been delivered to the Trustee or the Registrar for cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the making of a notice of redemption or otherwise, will become due and payable at their stated maturity within one year or are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee, and the Issuers have irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee (or such other entity designated or appointed (as agent) by it for this purpose) in trust for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. Dollars, U.S. Government Obligations or a combination thereof for the U.S. Dollar Notes, or cash in sterling, U.K. Government Obligations or a combination thereof for the Sterling Notes, in each case, in such amounts as will be sufficient without any reinvestment to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes not delivered to the Trustee or the Registrar for cancellation for principal, premium and Additional Amounts, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date of maturity or redemption, as the case may be;

(b) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or shall occur as a result of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit);

(d) the Issuers have delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under this Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at maturity or the redemption date, as the case may be; and

If requested by the Issuers, the Trustee may distribute any amounts deposited in trust to the Holders prior to maturity or the redemption date, as the case may be.

SECTION 8.06 Survival of Certain Obligations. Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and of the Notes and the Guarantees referred to in Section 8.01, 8.02, 8.03, 8.04 or 8.05, the respective obligations of the Issuers, each Guarantor and the Trustee under Sections 2.02, 2.03, 2.04, 2.05, 2.06, 2.07, 2.08, 2.09, 2.10, 2.11, 2.12, 2.15 (only with respect to the Issuers), 6.10, 7.06, 7.07, 8.07, 8.08 and 8.09 shall survive until the Notes are no longer outstanding, and thereafter the obligations of the Issuers and the Trustee under Sections 7.06 and 8.07 shall survive. Nothing contained in this Article VIII shall abrogate any of the obligations or duties of the Trustee under this Indenture.

SECTION 8.07 Acknowledgment of Discharge by Trustee. Subject to Section 8.10, after the conditions of Section 8.04 or 8.05 have been satisfied, the Trustee upon written request shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of all of the Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture except for those surviving obligations specified in this Article VIII.

SECTION 8.08 Application of Trust Moneys. All Sterling with respect to the Sterling Notes and U.S. Dollars with respect to the U.S. Dollar Notes deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 8.04 or 8.05 in respect of Notes shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of all sums due and to become due thereon for principal, premium, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

The Issuers shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 or 8.05 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of outstanding Notes.

SECTION 8.09 Repayment to the Issuers, Unclaimed Money. The Trustee and any Paying Agent shall promptly pay or return to the Issuers upon Issuer Order any cash held by them at any time that are not required for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes for which cash has been deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 or 8.05.

Any money held by the Trustee or any Paying Agent under this Article, for the benefit of the Holders for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuers upon Issuer Order or if then held by the Issuers shall be discharged from such

trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Issuers for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Issuers give notice to the Holders or, if and so long as the Notes are admitted to trading on the Global Exchange Market, and the rules of the Global Exchange Market so require, the Issuers will post on the website of the Irish Stock Exchange or in the case of Definitive Notes, in addition to such publication, mail to Holders by first-class mail, postage prepaid, at their respective addresses as they appear on the registration books of the Registrar (and, if and so long as the Notes are admitted to the Global Exchange Market, and the rules of the Global Exchange Market so require, the Issuers will post on the website of the Irish Stock Exchange)), that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Issuers.

SECTION 8.10 Reinstatement. If the Trustee or any Paying Agent is unable to apply any cash in accordance with Section 8.02, 8.03 or 8.04 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02, 8.03 or 8.04 until such time as the Trustee or applicable Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such cash in accordance with Section 8.02, 8.03 or 8.04; provided, however, that if the Issuers have made any payment of interest on, premium, if any, principal and Additional Amounts, if any, of any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuers shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or the applicable Paying Agent.

ARTICLE IX

AMENDMENTS, SUPPLEMENTS AND WAIVERS

SECTION 9.01 Without Consent of Holders of Notes. Notwithstanding Section 9.02 hereof, the Issuers, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees without the consent of any Holder to:

(1) cure any ambiguity, omission, defect, error or inconsistency;

(2) provide for uncertificated Notes of the applicable series in addition to or in place of Certificated Notes of such series; provided that such uncertificated Notes are in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of the Code;

(3) provide for the assumption of the Issuers’ or a Guarantor’s obligations to Holders in the case of a merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Issuers’ or such Guarantor’s assets, as applicable, in accordance with Article V;

(4) add to the covenants of the Issuers and the Guarantors or to the Events of Default, in each case, for the benefit of Holders or to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under this Indenture of any Holder or to surrender any right or power conferred on the Issuers or any Guarantor;

(5) add Guarantors with respect to the Notes or release a Guarantor from its obligations under its Guarantee or this Indenture, in each case, in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture;

(6) secure the Notes and the Guarantees;

(7) make any change that does not adversely affect the legal rights under this Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees of any Holder;

(8) evidence and provide the acceptance of the appointment of a successor Trustee under this Indenture;

(9) conform the text of this Indenture the Notes or the Guarantees to any provision of the Description of Notes contained in the Offering Memorandum to the extent such provision in the Description of Notes was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of this Indenture, the Notes of such series or the Guarantees;

(10) provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in accordance with this Indenture;

(11) comply with the rules of any applicable depositary; and

(12) make any amendment to the provisions of this Indenture relating to the transfer and legending of Notes as permitted by this Indenture, including, without limitation, to facilitate the issuance and administration of the Notes or any Additional Notes; provided, however, that (x) compliance with this Indenture as so amended would not result in the Notes being transferred in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable securities laws and (y) such amendment does not materially and adversely affect the rights of Holders to transfer Notes.

Upon the request of the Issuers, accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 9.05, the Trustee shall join with the Issuers and the Guarantors in the execution of any amended or supplemental indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of this Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations which may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into such amended or supplemental indenture which adversely affects its own rights, duties or immunities hereunder or otherwise.

In connection with the execution of any supplemental indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and rely absolutely on such evidence as it deems necessary, including Officer’s Certificates and Opinions of Counsel.

If and for so long as the Notes are listed on the Irish Stock Exchange and admitted for trading on the Global Exchange Market, and the rules of the Irish Stock Exchange so require, the Issuer shall post on the website of the Irish Stock Exchange of any of the foregoing amendments, supplements and waivers to the extent and in the manner permitted by such rules.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 9.01, in order to effect an amendment authorized by Section 9.01(5), it shall only be necessary for the supplemental indenture to be duly authorized and executed by (i) the Issuers, (ii) such additional Guarantor and (iii) the Trustee. Any other amendments permitted by this Indenture need only be duly authorized and executed by the Issuers and the Trustee.

SECTION 9.02 With Consent of Holders of Notes. The Issuers and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, and any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences or compliance with any provision of this Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees may be waived with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, the Notes of such series). However, without the consent of the Holders of at least 66²/3% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, an amendment or waiver may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder) release any Subsidiary Guarantor or modify its Guarantee in any manner materially adverse to the Holders, except in accordance with the terms of this Indenture. Further, without the consent of each Holder of an outstanding Note affected (including, without limitation consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, the Notes), an amendment or waiver may not:

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

(2) reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note;

(3) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest on any Note;

(4) reduce the premium or amount payable upon the redemption of any Note or change the time at which any Note may be redeemed as described in Article III;

(5) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, or interest or premium on any Note (except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of such series and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration);

(6) make any Note of such series payable in money other than that stated in such series of Notes;

(7) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of any Holder to receive payments of principal of, interest or premium, if any, on such Holder’s Notes or the rights of any Holder to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Notes or any Guarantee in respect thereof (such rights to receive payments and to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment are changed only when the terms of this Indenture or any Note are amended to reduce the specified principal amount, percentage or amount of premium or interest rate or to extend the maturity date of any Note or to amend the specified conditions or circumstances in which Additional Amounts are payable or the amount of Additional Amounts that are payable and this clause (7) shall not be construed as requiring the consent of Holders to any amendment or to any action, including an action undertaken by the Issuers or any Guarantor, except as specifically provided in this clause (7));

(8) waive a redemption payment with respect to any Note (other than a payment required under Section 4.09);

(9) make any change in respect of the Issuers’ obligations to redeem any Note pursuant to a Special Mandatory Redemption;

(10) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture described in Section 4.10 hereof that adversely affects the rights of any Holder or beneficial owner of Notes or amends the terms of the Notes in a way that would result in a loss of an exemption from any of the taxes described thereunder or an exemption from any obligation to withhold or deduct taxes so described thereunder unless the Issuers agree to pay Additional Amounts, if any, in respect thereof; or

(11) make any change in the amendment and waiver provisions of this Article IX which required each affected Holder’s consent.

All Notes issued under this Indenture shall vote and consent together on all matters (as to which any of such Notes may vote) as one class and no series of Notes will have the right to vote or consent as a separate series on any matter; provided, however, that if any amendment, waiver or other modification will only affect one series of Notes, only the consent of the Holders the specified percentage of principal amount of the affected series of Notes then outstanding (and not the consent of the Holders of at least a majority of all Notes), shall be required.

The aggregate principal amount of the Notes, at any date of determination, shall be the sum of (1) the principal amount of the U.S. Dollar Notes at such date of determination plus (2) the Dollar Equivalent, at such date of determination, of the principal amount of the Sterling Notes at such date of determination. With respect to any matter requiring consent, waiver, approval or other action of the Holders of a specified percentage of the principal amount of all the Notes (and not solely the U.S. Dollar Notes or the Sterling Notes), such percentage shall be calculated, on the relevant date of determination, by dividing (x) the principal amount, as of such date of determination, of Notes, the Holders of which have so consented by (y) the aggregate principal amount, as of such date of determination, of the Notes then outstanding, in each case, as determined in accordance with the preceding sentence and other provisions in this Indenture. Any such calculation shall be made by the Issuers and delivered to the Trustee in an Officer’s Certificate.

The consent of the Holders is not necessary under this Indenture to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment. It is sufficient if such consent approves the substance of the proposed amendment. After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Indenture becomes effective, the Issuer is required to deliver to the Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment or supplement. However, the failure to give such notice to all the Holders, or any defect in the notice, shall not impair or affect the validity of the amendment, supplement or waiver.

Upon the request of the Issuer, accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders of Notes as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 9.05, the Trustee shall join with the Issuers in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or supplemental indenture adversely affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities hereunder or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental indenture. It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders of Notes under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section becomes effective, the Issuers shall deliver to the Holders of Notes a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Issuers to deliver such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental indenture or waiver.

After an amendment, supplement or waiver under the foregoing paragraph becomes effective, the Issuers shall, in the case of Definitive Notes, mail to the Holders a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. However, the failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, will not in any way impair or affect the validity of such amended or supplemented indenture or waiver.

If and for so long as the Notes are listed on the Irish Stock Exchange and admitted for trading on the Global Exchange Market, and the rules of the Irish Stock Exchange so require, the Issuers shall post on the website of the Irish Stock Exchange any of the foregoing amendments, supplements or waivers to the extent and in the manner permitted by such rules.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 9.02, in order to effect an amendment authorized by Section 9.02(5), it shall only be necessary for the supplemental indenture to be duly authorized and executed by the Issuers and the Trustee.

SECTION 9.03 Revocation and Effect of Consents. (a) Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder is a continuing consent by the Holder and every subsequent Holder or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the waiver, supplement or amendment becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder.

(b) The Issuers may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for determining which Holders must consent to such amendment, supplement or waiver. If the Issuers fix a record date, the record date shall be fixed at (i) the later of 30 days prior to the first solicitation of such consent or the date of the most recent list of Holders of Notes furnished to the Trustee prior to such solicitation pursuant to Section 2.05 or (ii) such other date as the Issuers shall designate.

SECTION 9.04 Notation on or Exchange of Notes. If an amendment, supplement or waiver changes the terms of any Note, the Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Issuers in exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver. Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

SECTION 9.05 Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc.. The Trustee shall, at the cost and expense of the Issuers, execute any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article IX; provided, however, that the Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, execute any such amendment, supplement or waiver which adversely affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture. The Trustee shall be entitled to receive indemnity and/or security (including by way of pre-funding) satisfactory to it, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel and an Officer’s Certificate each stating that (i) the execution of any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article IX is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and (ii) constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Issuers enforceable in accordance with its terms.

ARTICLE X

GUARANTEES

SECTION 10.01 Guarantee. (a) The Notes will initially not be guaranteed. Upon completion of the Acquisition, the Issuer shall cause the Post-Completion Date Guarantors to execute a supplemental indenture as a Subsidiary Guarantor within 90 days of completion of the Acquisition. Subject to the provisions of Section 10.02 hereof and any other limitations under applicable law. Each Guarantor will, fully, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, jointly and severally with each other Guarantor, to each Holder and the Trustee the full and punctual payment when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, of the principal of, premium, if any, interest or Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes and all other obligations of the Issuers under this Indenture and the Notes (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the “Note Guarantee Obligations”). Each Guarantor further agrees (to the extent permitted by and subject to requirements under applicable law) that the Note Guarantee Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from it, and that it shall remain bound under this Article X (to the extent permitted by applicable and subject to requirements under applicable law) notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Note Guarantee Obligation.

(b) To the extent permitted by law, each Guarantor waives presentation to, demand of, payment from and protest to the Issuers of any of the Note Guarantee Obligations and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. Each Guarantor waives notice of any default under the Notes or the Note Guarantee Obligations. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not (to the extent permitted by and subject to requirements under applicable law) be affected by: (a) the failure of any Holder to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Issuers, any other Guarantor or any other person under this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement or otherwise; (b) any extension or renewal of any thereof; (c) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement; (d) the release of any security held by any Holder or the Trustee for the Note Guarantee Obligations or any of them; or (e) any change in the ownership of the Issuers.

(c) Each Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee herein constitutes a guarantee of payment when due (and not a guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder to any security held for payment of the Note Guarantee Obligations.

(d) Subject to the provisions of Section 10.02 hereof, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than payment of the Note Guarantee Obligations in full), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not (to the extent permitted by law) be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Note Guarantee Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor herein shall not (to the extent permitted by law) be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by (i) the failure of any Holder to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement, (ii) any waiver or modification of any thereof, (iii) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Note Guarantee Obligations, or (iv) any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity.

(e) Each Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of or interest or Additional Amounts, if any, on any of the Note Guarantee Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder upon the bankruptcy or reorganization (including examinership) of the Issuers or otherwise.

(f) Subject to the provisions of Section 10.02 hereof, in furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Issuers to pay any of the Note Guarantee Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, each Guarantor hereby promises to and will, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Trustee for and on behalf of itself and the Holders an amount equal to the sum of (i) the unpaid amount of such Note Guarantee Obligations then due and owing and (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such Note Guarantee Obligations then due and owing (but only to the extent not prohibited by law). Payments made under this guarantee shall be made to the Trustee on behalf of the Holders.

(g) Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between it, on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other hand, but subject always to Section 10.02 hereof, (x) the maturity of the Note Guarantee Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in this Indenture for the purposes of its Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Note Guarantee Obligations guaranteed hereby and (y) in the event of any such declaration of acceleration of such Note Guarantee Obligations, such Note Guarantee Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by each Guarantor for the purposes of its Guarantee.

(h) Each Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Trustee or the Holders in enforcing any rights under this Section.

(i) Neither the Issuers nor the Guarantors shall be required to make a notation on the applicable Notes to reflect any Guarantee or any release, termination or discharge thereof.

SECTION 10.02 Limitation on Liability. (a) Any term or provision of this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum aggregate amount of the Note Guarantee Obligations guaranteed hereunder by any Guarantor shall not exceed the maximum amount that can be hereby guaranteed without rendering this Indenture, as it relates to such Guarantor, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

(b) The liability of each Guarantor under this Article X shall be limited as necessary to prevent that Guarantee from constituting a fraudulent conveyance under applicable law and in any supplemental indenture executed by a Subsidiary providing for a Guarantee.

SECTION 10.03 Successors and Assigns. This Article X shall be binding upon each Guarantor and its successors and assigns and shall endure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Trustee and the Holders and, in the event of any transfer or assignment of rights by any Holder or the Trustee, the rights and privileges conferred upon that party in this Indenture and in the Notes shall automatically extend to and be vested in such transferee or assignee, all subject to the terms and conditions of this Indenture.

SECTION 10.04 No Waiver. Neither a failure nor a delay on the part of either the Trustee or the Holders in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Article X shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege. The rights, remedies and benefits of the Trustee and the Holders herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits which either may have under this Article X at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.

SECTION 10.05 Modification. No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Article X, nor the consent to any departure by any Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Trustee, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on any Guarantor in any case shall entitle such Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.

SECTION 10.06 Release of Guarantor. (a) Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, the Guarantee of any Guarantor will be released:

(1) upon Legal Defeasance, Covenant Defeasance or Satisfaction and Discharge of this Indenture as provided for in Article VIII; or

(2) upon the full and final payment and performance of all Obligations of the Issuers and the Guarantors under this Indenture and the Notes.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, the Guarantee of a Guarantor will be released:

(i) in the case of the Guarantee of a Subsidiary Guarantor:

(1) in connection with any sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of that Subsidiary Guarantor (including by way of merger or consolidation) to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Issuer or a Subsidiary of the Issuer;

(2) in connection with any sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of Capital Stock of that Subsidiary Guarantor or its direct or indirect parent entity to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Issuer or a Subsidiary of the Issuer, if such Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Issuer as a result of such sale or other disposition;

(3) upon the release of that Subsidiary Guarantor of its guarantee of the Senior Secured Credit Facilities (including, without limitation, upon repayment of obligations outstanding under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities) and obligations of that Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of any other Indebtedness at that time that would have otherwise given rise to a requirement to guarantee the Notes pursuant to Section 4.05 had that Person not already been a Subsidiary Guarantor; provided that should that Subsidiary Guarantor thereafter guarantee obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities (or such guarantee of the Senior Secured Credit Facilities is reinstated or renewed), then that Subsidiary Guarantor will guarantee the Notes on the terms and conditions set forth in this Indenture;

(4) in accordance with Article IX; or

(5) upon the release of the obligations of that Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of Indebtedness that gave rise to the requirement to guarantee the Notes pursuant to Section 4.05, so long as no Event of Default would arise as a result thereof and that Subsidiary Guarantor has no other obligations in respect of Indebtedness at that time that would have otherwise given rise to a requirement to guarantee the Notes pursuant to Section 4.05 had that Subsidiary not already been a Subsidiary Guarantor; and

(ii) in the case of the Guarantee of a Guarantor that is not a Subsidiary Guarantor, upon delivery of an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee stating that the Guarantee of such Guarantor is released.

In connection with any release specified in this Section 10.06, the Trustee will, at the request and expense of the Issuers, execute any documents reasonably necessary in order to evidence or effect such release, discharge and termination in respect of such Guarantee in accordance with these provisions, subject to customary protections and indemnifications. Neither the Issuers nor any Guarantor will be required to make a notation on the Notes to reflect any such release, termination or discharge. Each of the releases and amendments set forth above shall be effected by the Trustee without any consent of the Holders or any other action or consent on the part of the Trustee.

SECTION 10.07 Execution of Supplemental Indenture for Future Guarantors. Each Subsidiary and other Person which is required to become a Guarantor pursuant to Section 4.05 or Section 10.01(a) shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture in the form of Exhibit B hereto pursuant to which such Subsidiary or other Person shall become a Guarantor under this Article X and shall guarantee the Guarantee Obligations. Any Guarantee may be limited as necessary to recognize certain defenses generally available to guarantors (including those that relate to fraudulent conveyance or transfer, voidable preference, financial assistance, corporate purpose, capital maintenance or similar laws, regulations or defenses affecting the rights of creditors generally) or other considerations under applicable law. Any such limitation language may be included in the applicable supplemental indenture. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture, the Trustee shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel and an Officer’s Certificate each stating that (i) the execution of any supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article X is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and (ii) constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Issuers enforceable in accordance with its terms.

Each of the Issuers and the Trustee by written notice to each other such Person may designate additional or different addresses for notices to such Person. Any notice or communication to the Issuers and the Trustee shall be deemed to have been given or made as of the date so delivered if personally delivered; when receipt is acknowledged, if telecopied; and five calendar days after mailing if sent by first class mail, postage prepaid (except that a notice of change of address and any notice to the Trustee or any Agent shall not be deemed to have been given until actually received by the addressee).

In the case of Definitive Notes, all notices to Holders will be validly given if mailed to them at their respective addresses in the register of the Holders of such Notes, if any, maintained by the Registrar. In addition, if and for so long as the Notes are listed on the Irish Stock Exchange and admitted to trading on the Global Exchange Market thereof and the rules of the Irish Stock Exchange so require, all notices will be published in a newspaper having general circulation in Ireland (which is expected to be The Irish Times) or, to the extent and in the manner permitted by such rules, posted on the official website of the Irish Stock Exchange (xxx.xxx.xx). Each such notice shall be deemed to have been given on the date of such publication, or, if published more than once on different dates, on the first date on which publication is made, provided that, if notices are mailed, such notice shall be deemed to have been given on the later of such publication and the seventh day after being so mailed. For so long as any series of Notes are represented by Global Notes, all notices to Holders or such series of Notes will be delivered to DTC, in the case of the U.S. Dollar Notes, and each Clearing Agency, in the case of the Sterling Notes, each of which will give notice of such notice to the holders of beneficial interests in such series of Notes and all notices that are required to be delivered to Holders will be deemed delivered for purposes of this Indenture if delivered to such DTC and Clearing Agencies for communication to holders of book-entry interests on the date delivered to DTC and each Clearing Agency. Any notice or communication mailed to a Holder shall be mailed to such Person by first-class mail or other equivalent means and shall be sufficiently given to such Person if so mailed within the time prescribed. Failure to mail a notice or communication to a Holder or any defect in it shall not affect its sufficiency with respect to other Holders. If a notice or communication is mailed in the manner provided in this Section 11.01, it is duly given, whether or not the addressee receives it.

The Trustee shall have the right, but shall not be required, to rely upon and comply with notices, instructions, directions or other communications sent by e-mail, facsimile and other similar unsecured electronic methods by persons believed by the Trustee to be authorized to give instructions and directions on behalf of the Issuers. The Trustee shall have no duty or obligation to verify or confirm that the person who sent such instructions or directions is, in fact, a person authorized to give instructions or directions on behalf of the Issuers; and the Trustee shall have no liability for any losses, liabilities, costs or expenses incurred or sustained by the Issuers as a result of such reliance upon or compliance with such notices, instructions, directions or other communications. The Issuers agree to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic methods to submit notices, instructions, directions or other communications to the Trustee, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties. The Issuers shall use all reasonable endeavors to ensure that any such notices, instructions, directions or other communications transmitted to the Trustee pursuant to this Indenture are complete and correct. Any such notices, instructions, directions or other communications shall be conclusively deemed to be valid instructions from an Issuer to the Trustee for the purposes of this Indenture.

SECTION 11.02 Certificate and Opinion as to Conditions Precedent. Upon any request or application by the Issuers to the Trustee or an Agent to take any action under this Indenture, the Issuers shall furnish to the Trustee at the request of the Trustee:

(1) an Officer’s Certificate (which shall include the statements set forth in Section 11.03) stating that, in the opinion of the signers, all conditions precedent and covenants, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with; provided that no such Officer’s Certificate shall be required to be delivered in connection with the issuance of the Notes that are issued on the Issue Date; and

(2) an Opinion of Counsel (which shall include the statements set forth in Section 11.03) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all such conditions precedent and covenants have been satisfied or complied with; provided that no such Opinion of Counsel shall be required to be delivered in connection with the issuance of the Notes that are issued on the Issue Date.

In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an Opinion of Counsel of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all such matters be certified by, or covered by the Opinion of Counsel of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify or give an Opinion of Counsel with respect to some matters and one or more such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an Opinion of Counsel as to such matters in one or several documents.

Any certificate of an Officer of the Issuers may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon an Opinion of Counsel, unless such Officer knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that such Opinion of Counsel with respect to the matters upon which his certificate is based are erroneous. Any Opinion of Counsel may be based, and may state that it is so based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate of, or representations by, an officer or officers of the Issuers stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Issuers.

Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument.

SECTION 11.03 Statements Required in Certificate or Opinion. Each certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture shall include:

(a) a statement that the Person making such certificate or opinion has read such covenant or condition;

(b) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based;

(c) a statement that, in the opinion of such Person, such Person has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable such Person to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition has been complied with; and

(d) a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of each such Person, such condition or covenant has been complied with,

provided, however, that an issuer of an Opinion of Counsel may reasonably rely as to any matter of fact on an Officer’s Certificate or a certificate of a public official.

SECTION 11.04 Rules by Trustee, Paying Agents, Registrar. The Trustee, the Paying Agents or the Registrar may make reasonable rules for its functions.

SECTION 11.05 Legal Holidays. If a payment date is not a Business Day, payment may be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, and no interest shall accrue for the intervening period.

SECTION 11.06 Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial; Submission to Jurisdiction; This Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees, and the rights and duties of the parties hereunder and thereunder, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

EACH OF THE ISSUERS AND THE TRUSTEE HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE, THE NOTES OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

The Issuers irrevocably consent and submit, for themselves and in respect of any of its assets or property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any court of the State of New York or any United States Federal court sitting, in each case, in the Borough of Manhattan, Xxx Xxxx xx Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxxxxx Xxxxxx of America, and any appellate court from any thereof in any suit, action or proceeding that may be brought in connection with this Indenture or the Securities, and waives any immunity from the jurisdiction of such courts. The Issuers irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection to any such suit, action or proceeding that may be brought in such courts whether on the grounds of venue, residence or domicile or on the ground that any such suit, action or proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum. The Issuers agree, to the fullest extent that it lawfully may do so, that final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such a court shall be conclusive and binding upon the Issuers, and waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection to the enforcement by any competent court in the Issuers’ jurisdiction of organization of judgments validly obtained in any such court in New York on the basis of such suit, action or proceeding.

SECTION 11.07 No Adverse Interpretation of Other Agreements. This Indenture may not be used to interpret another indenture, loan or debt agreement of any of the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries. Any such indenture, loan or debt agreement may not be used to interpret this Indenture.

SECTION 11.08 No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees, and Stockholders. No director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Issuers or any Guarantor, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Issuers or any Guarantor under the Notes, the Guarantees or this Indenture 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 and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes.

SECTION 11.09 Currency Indemnity. Sterling is the sole currency of account and payment for all sums payable by the Issuers and the Guarantors under or in connection with the Sterling Notes and the Guarantees thereof, including damages. Any amount received or recovered in a currency other than sterling for the Sterling Notes, 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 any of the Issuers, any Guarantor or otherwise, by any Holder or by the Trustee, as the case may be, in respect of any sum expressed to be due to it from any of the Issuers or Guarantors will only constitute a discharge to the Issuers or the Guarantors, as applicable, to the extent of the sterling amount which the recipient could purchase in the London foreign exchange markets with the amount so received or recovered in that other currency in accordance with normal banking procedures at the rate of exchange prevailing on the first Business Day following receipt or recovery.

If that sterling amount is less than the sterling amount expressed to be due to the recipient under any Sterling Note, any Guarantee or to the Trustee, the Issuers and the Guarantors will indemnify them on a joint and several basis against any loss sustained by such recipient as a result. In any event, the Issuers and the Guarantors will indemnify the recipient on a joint and several basis against the cost of making any such purchase. For the purposes of this Section 11.09, it will be sufficient for the Holder of the applicable series of Notes or the Trustee to certify in a satisfactory manner (indicating the sources of information used) that it would have suffered a loss had an actual purchase of sterling been made with the amount so received in that other currency on the first Business Day following receipt or recovery (or, if a purchase of sterling on such date had not been practicable, on the first date on which it would have been practicable, it being required that the need for a change of date be certified in the manner mentioned in this Section 11.09). These indemnities constitute a separate and independent obligation from the Issuers’ and the Guarantors’ other obligations, will give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, will apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by any Holder or the Trustee 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, any Guarantee or to the Trustee.

SECTION 11.10 Currency Calculation. Except as otherwise specifically set forth herein, for purposes of determining compliance with any sterling-denominated restriction herein, the sterling-equivalent amount for purposes hereof that is denominated in a non-sterling currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such non-sterling amount is incurred or made, as the case may be.

SECTION 11.11 Information. If and for so long as the Notes are admitted to the Official List of the Irish Stock Exchange and admitted for trading on the Global Exchange Market, and the rules of the Irish Stock Exchange so require, copies of this Indenture will be made available through the offices of the Ireland listing agent.

SECTION 11.12 Successors. All agreements of the Issuers in this Indenture and the Notes shall bind their respective successors. All agreements of the Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successor.

SECTION 11.13 Counterpart Originals. All parties hereto may sign any number of copies of this Indenture. Each signed copy or counterpart shall be an original, but all of them together shall represent one and the same agreement. The exchange of copies of this Indenture and of signature pages by facsimile or electronic (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) transmission shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this Indenture as to the parties hereto and may be used in lieu of the original Indenture for all purposes. Signatures of the parties hereto transmitted by facsimile or electronic (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) transmission shall be deemed to be their original signatures for all purposes.

SECTION 11.14 Severability. In case any one or more of the provisions in this Indenture or in the Notes shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, in any respect for any reason, the validity, legality and enforceability of any such provision in every other respect and of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, it being intended that all of the provisions hereof shall be enforceable to the full extent permitted by law.

SECTION 11.15 Table of Contents, Headings, etc.. The Table of Contents, Cross-Reference Table and Headings of the Articles and Sections of this Indenture have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not to be considered a part of this Indenture and shall in no way modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.

XXXXXXX 00.00 XXX Xxxxxxx Xxx. The parties hereto acknowledge that in order to help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, pursuant to federal regulations that became effective on October 1, 2003, Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person establishing a relationship or opening an account with the Trustee.

2021		101.094	%
2022 and thereafter		100.000	%

(ii) the redemption occurs within 180 days after the closing of such Equity Offering.]

[At any time prior to November 15, 2020, the Issuers may redeem the Sterling Notes, in whole or in part on any one or more occasions, upon giving not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice to the Holders thereof, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the Applicable Premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date).


Year	Percentage

2021		100.969	%
2022 and thereafter		100.000	%

At any time prior to November 15, 2020, the Issuers may redeem up to 40% of the original principal amount of the Sterling Notes (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of Additional Sterling Notes), on any one or more occasions, upon giving not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice to the Holders thereof, with the Net Cash Proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings at a redemption price of 103.875% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date); provided that:

(iii) at least 50% of the original principal amount of the Sterling Notes (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of Additional Sterling Notes) remains outstanding after each such redemption; and

(iv) the redemption occurs within 180 days after the closing of such Equity Offering.]

If the redemption date pursuant to this Paragraph 6 is on or after a Record Date and on or before the related interest payment date, the accrued and unpaid interest will be paid to the Person in whose name the Note is registered at the close of business on such Record Date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders whose Notes will be subject to such redemption by the Issuers.

7. Special Tax Redemption. If as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, or any change in the official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings (including a ruling by a court of competent jurisdiction in the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction), which change or amendment is announced and becomes effective on or

after the date of the Offering Memorandum (or, in the case of a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction that becomes a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction after the date of the Offering Memorandum, after the date such jurisdiction becomes a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction), the Issuers become or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts on a series of the Notes on the next applicable payment date (such change or amendment, a “Change in Tax Law”), the Issuers may, at their option, redeem such series of the Notes, in whole but not in part, on not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date and all Additional Amounts, if any, then due and which will become due on the redemption date as a result of the redemption or otherwise if the Issuers determine, in their business judgment, that the obligation to pay such Additional Amounts cannot be avoided by the use of reasonable measures available to the Issuers, not including substitution of the obligor under the Notes. Prior to the publication or mailing of any notice of redemption of the relevant Notes pursuant to this Paragraph 7 (and as a condition to such redemption), the Issuers will deliver to the Trustee (i) an opinion of independent tax counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee to the effect that the Issuers are or will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts as a result of a Change in Tax Law and (ii) an Officer’s Certificate stating that the Issuers are entitled to redeem such series of the Notes pursuant to their terms and that the Issuers cannot avoid their obligation to pay Additional Amounts by taking reasonable measures available to the Issuers. If the Issuers redeem a series of the Notes under the circumstances described in this Paragraph 7, then, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary set forth in this Paragraph 7, payments of interest on the Notes on any interest payment date falling on or prior to the applicable redemption date for the Notes will be payable to the Holders of the Notes (or one or more predecessor Notes) of record at the close of business on the relevant Record Date.

The Trustee will accept and shall be entitled to rely absolutely and without further inquiry on such opinion and Officer’s Certificate as sufficient existence of the satisfaction of the conditions precedent in this Paragraph 7, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on the Holders.

8. Special Mandatory Redemption. The Issuers are not required to make mandatory redemption payments or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes, other than a Special Mandatory Redemption pursuant to the Escrow Agreement and Section 3.09 of the Indenture.

9. Notice of Redemption. Any redemption notice may, at the Issuers’ discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including completion of an Equity Offering or other corporate transaction. If such redemption 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 Issuers’ discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time 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 by the redemption date as so delayed. In addition, the Issuers may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and performance of the Issuers’ obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person. At the Issuers’ request made at least 10 days before the redemption date (or such shorter period as may be acceptable to the Trustee), the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Issuers’ name and at the Issuers’ expense; provided, however, that the Issuers shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the following items and that such redemption will comply with the conditions hereof.

10. Change of Control Repurchase Event Offer. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Repurchase Event, the Issuers will be required to make an offer to purchase all of the Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to the Change of Control Payment (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on the relevant interest payment date). Holders of Notes that are subject to an offer to purchase will receive a Change of Control Offer from the Issuers prior to any related Change of Control Payment Date and may elect to have such Notes purchased by completing the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” appearing below.
