AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, the Company and the Guarantors covenant and agree with the Trustee, for the equal benefit of Holders of the 2021 Notes, and the equal benefit of Holders of the 2024 Notes, as applicable, as follows:
Section 1.Third Supplemental Indenture. As used herein “Third Supplemental Indenture,” “hereto’” “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” and similar expressions refer to this Third Supplemental Indenture and not to any particular Section or other portion hereof and include any and every instrument supplemental or ancillary hereto or in implementation hereof.
Section 2.Definitions in Third Supplemental Indenture. All terms contained in this Third Supplemental Indenture that are defined in the Indenture and not defined herein shall, for all purposes hereof, have the meanings given to such terms in the Indenture, unless the context otherwise specifies or requires.
Section 3.Acknowledgement of Liens; Release. The Trustee hereby acknowledges the granting of the Credit Agreement Liens on the Collateral to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders pursuant to the Security Agreement, to secure the payment of principal and interest and all other amounts due and owing pursuant to the terms of the Notes on an equal and ratable basis with the Secured Indebtedness and, in connection herewith, the Trustee hereby acknowledges on behalf of the Holders the execution and delivery of the Security Agreement pursuant to which such Credit Agreement Liens on the Collateral referred to herein shall be granted to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, the Trustee and the other Secured Parties.
Upon payment in full of the Secured Indebtedness or otherwise upon any agreement by the Collateral Agent or the required Secured Lenders to release the Credit Agreement Liens on the Collateral (or any portion thereof), the Trustee hereby agrees that the Collateral Agent may, and agrees to take any action required to cause the Collateral Agent to, release all the Credit Agreement Liens on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes and the Trustee pursuant to the Security Agreement to the same extent and on the same terms and conditions as the Collateral Agent, acting on behalf of the other Secured Parties, shall release such Credit Agreement Liens.
Section 4.Consent. The Company hereby consents to the granting of the Credit Agreement Liens on the Collateral for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes and the Trustee to secure the payment of principal and interest and all other amounts due and owing pursuant to the terms of the Notes on an equal and ratable basis as described in Section 3 above and in the Security Agreement until the release of the Credit Agreement Liens on the Collateral upon the repayment of the Secured Indebtedness or otherwise in accordance with the provisions described in Section 3 above.
Section 5.Execution as Supplemental Indenture. This Third Supplemental Indenture is executed and shall be construed as an indenture supplemental to the Indenture and, as provided in the Base Indenture, this Third Supplemental Indenture forms a part thereof.
Section 6.Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. If any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with another provision hereof, or with a provision of the Indenture, or with a provision of the Trust Indenture Act, which is required to be included in this Second Supplemental Indenture, or in the Indenture, respectively, by any of the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act, such required provision shall control to the extent it is applicable.
