WHEREAS, VOC Escrow Ltd, an exempted company incorporated with limited liability organized under the laws of Bermuda (the “Escrow Issuer”), has heretofore executed and delivered to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent an indenture, dated as of February 5, 2018 (the “Indenture”), providing for the issuance of 5.000% Senior Secured Notes due 2028 (the “Notes”);
WHEREAS, Section 13.01 of the Indenture provides that VOC may assume all obligations of the Escrow Issuer in respect of the Notes and the Indenture, as if VOC had itself issued such Notes, and the Escrow Issuer will be automatically released from all obligations under the Notes and the Indenture, so long as VOC and each Initial Guarantor have executed and delivered to the Trustee a supplemental indenture to the Indenture pursuant to which (i) VOC will become a party to the Indenture and expressly assume the Escrow Issuer’s obligations under the Notes and the Indenture, VOC will be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Escrow Issuer under the Indenture and the Escrow Issuer will be released from all obligations thereunder and (ii) each Initial Guarantor will become a Guarantor under the Indenture; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Indenture, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent are authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, VOC, the Initial Guarantors, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent mutually covenant and agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes as follows:
1. CAPITALIZED TERMS. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.
2. AGREEMENT TO ASSUME. VOC hereby agrees to unconditionally assume the Escrow Issuer’s Obligations under the Notes and the Indenture and to be bound by all other applicable provisions of the Indenture and the Notes and to perform all of the obligations and agreements of the Issuer under the Indenture.
3. AGREEMENT OF VCL. VCL hereby agrees to perform and observe all of the obligations in the Indenture to be observed and performed by the Company.

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.
