Section 2.01. Title and Terms; Payments.

(b) Initial Issuance. Subject to Section 2.01(c) hereof, the aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be authenticated and delivered under the Indenture is limited to $75,000,000 (except for Notes authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Notes pursuant to Sections 304, 305, 306, 906 or 1108 of the Base Indenture and Sections 3.01 and 3.02 hereof).

The Company may, without notice to, or the consent of, Holders and subject to complying with the covenants of the Indenture applicable to the Notes, issue an unlimited principal amount of additional Securities under the Indenture having identical terms as the Notes issued under the Indenture on the Issue Date (such Notes, the “Initial Notes”) (other than date of original issuance, and if applicable, issue price, the first Interest Payment Date and the date from which interest will accrue) (such additional Securities, the “Additional Notes”), provided that if any Additional Notes are not fungible with the Initial Notes for United States federal income tax purposes, such Additional Notes will have separate CUSIP and ISIN numbers from

-26-

the Initial Notes. Any Additional Notes will, for all purposes of the Indenture, be treated as part of the same series of Securities as the Initial Notes.

(d) Purchases. The Company, the Guarantors and their Subsidiaries and other Affiliates may from time to time purchase Notes by tender offer or in open market purchases, negotiated transactions or otherwise, in accordance with applicable securities laws, without, notice to, or the consent of, Holders.

Any Note that is a Global Note will bear a legend substantially in the form of the legend designated as the “Global Legend” in Exhibit A hereto and shall also bear the “Schedule of Increases and Decreases of Global Note” set forth in Attachment 2 to Exhibit A hereto.

The terms and provisions contained in the Notes will constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of the Indenture and, to the extent applicable, the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Supplemental Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent that any provision of any Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of such Note will govern and control.

(b) Initial and Subsequent Form of Notes. The Initial Notes will be offered and sold by the Company to the Initial Purchasers pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. The Company may offer and sell Additional Notes from time to time, including, without limitation, offers and sales pursuant to one or more purchase agreements or underwriting agreements by and among the Company, the Guarantors and one or more initial purchasers or underwriters. The Initial Notes will be resold, and Additional Notes may be resold, initially only (i) to QIBs in reliance on Rule 144A (Notes so resold in reliance on Rule 144A, the “Rule 144A Notes”), (ii) to Persons other than U.S. persons in reliance on Regulation S (Notes so resold in reliance on Regulation S, the “Regulation S Notes”) and (iii) to Institutional Accredited Investors (Notes so resold to Institutional Accredited Investors, the “IAI Notes.”)

(c) Global Notes. Each Global Note will represent the aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes endorsed thereon and provide that it represents such aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes, which aggregate principal amount may, from time to time, be increased or decreased to reflect transfers, exchanges, redemptions, repurchases and cancellations of the Notes represented

-28-

thereby. Any endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby shall be made by the Custodian, at the direction of the Security Registrar, in accordance with Section 2.03 of this Supplemental Indenture and any applicable provisions of the Indenture.

Prior to the U.S. Resale Restriction Termination Date, every Note (whether a Global Note or a Certificated Note) representing any Rule 144A Note or IAI shall bear the Restrictive Legend, and prior to the Distribution Compliance Period with respect to a Regulation S Note, every Note (whether a Global Note or a Certificated Note) representing such Regulation S Note shall bear the Restrictive Legend. Every Restrictive Note shall be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in the Restrictive Legend and in this Section 2.03. Each Holder of a Restricted Note, by such Xxxxxx’s acceptance thereof, agrees to be bound by all such restrictions on transfer. To the extent

-29-

that any transfer or exchange of Restricted Notes (including, without limitation, beneficial interests in Restricted Global Notes) is not covered by a specific provision in the remaining provisions of this Section 2.03, the Company may implement such procedures and impose such conditions to such transfer or exchange (including, without limitation, the delivery of certificates, legal opinions and other documents) as the Company in its sole discretion may deem necessary or appropriate to implement the restrictions on transfer set forth in the Restrictive Legend.

(i) Subject to compliance with the other requirements of this Section 2.03(b), if the proposed transfer is a transfer of a beneficial interest in one Global Note to a beneficial interest in another Global Note, (A) the Security Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of the Global Note to which such interest is being transferred in an amount equal to the principal amount of the interest to be so transferred, and the Security Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and a corresponding decrease in the principal amount of the Global Note from which such interest is being transferred; and (B) the Security Registrar shall instruct the Custodian to increase or reflect on its records an increase in the principal amount of the Global Note to which such interest is being transferred (and to record such increase by endorsement on the Schedule attached to such Global Note) in an amount equal to the principal amount of the interest to be so transferred, and the Security Registrar shall instruct the Custodian, concurrently with such increase, to decrease or reflect on its records a decrease in the principal amount of the Global Note from which such interest is being transferred by a corresponding amount (and to record such decrease by endorsement on the Schedule attached to such Global Note). 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 another Global Note will, upon transfer, cease to be an interest in such original Global Note and will 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 so long as it remains such an interest.

(ii) If the proposed transfer is an exchange of a beneficial interest in a U.S. Global Note for a beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Note or the transfer of a beneficial interest in a U.S. Global Note to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Note, the transferor of such beneficial interest shall deliver to the Security Registrar prior to any such exchange or transfer (A) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto if such exchange or transfer is to occur prior to the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period with respect to such

Each Global Note may be transferred only as a whole and only (A) by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary, (B) by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or to another nominee of the Depositary, or (C) by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary.

-31-

the Base Indenture) on such Note, in connection with a Change of Control Repurchase, upon any exchange and for all other purposes whatsoever, for distribution of notices to such Holders or solicitations of their consent, whether or not such Note be overdue, and the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and any agent of the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall not be affected by notice to the contrary.

(f) Cancellation or Adjustments in Amount of Global Notes. At such time as all beneficial interests in a Global Note have either been exchanged for Certificated Notes or redeemed, repurchased or cancelled, the Security Registrar shall, upon receipt thereof, cancel such Global Note in accordance with standing procedures and instructions existing between the Depositary and the Custodian for the Global Note. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is transferred to a Person that takes delivery thereof in the form of a Certificated Note, transferred in exchange for an interest in another Global Note or redeemed, repurchased or cancelled or if a beneficial interest in a Certificated Note or another Global Note is transferred in exchange for an interest in such Global Note, then in each case, the Security Registrar shall cause the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Global Note or Global Notes to be reduced or increased, as applicable, and shall instruct the Custodian to decrease or increase, or reflect on its records a decrease or increase, as the case may be, in the principal amount of such Global Note or Global Notes (and to record such decrease or increase, as the case may be, by endorsement on the Schedule attached to each such Global Note in the applicable principal amount).

(b) Method of Payment. The Company will pay (or cause to be paid) the principal of, or the Redemption Price or Change of Control Repurchase Price for, and interest, if any, on, any Certificated Note to the Holder of such Note in cash at the office or agency maintained by the Company for such purpose in Chicago, Illinois, prior to 2:00 p.m., Chicago time, on the relevant payment date. The Company will pay (or cause to be paid) any interest on any Certificated Note to the Holder of such Note, at the Company’s Option, (i) by check mailed to such Holder’s registered address, or (ii) if such Holder delivers to the Security Registrar a written request that the Company make such payments by wire transfer to an account of such Holder within the United States, for each interest payment corresponding to each Regular Record Date occurring during the period beginning on the date on which such Holder delivered such request and ending on the date, if any, on which such Holder delivers to the Security Registrar a written instruction

to the contrary, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified by such Xxxxxx.

Calculation of the Applicable Premium and the Treasury Rate will be made by the Company or on behalf of the Company by such Person as the Company shall designate.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date for any Note whose redemption price may be determined by reference to the Applicable Premium, the yield to maturity at the time of computation of United States Treasury securities with a constant maturity (as compiled and published in the most recent Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15(519) that has become publicly available at least two Business Days prior to such Redemption Date or, in the case of redemption in connection with defeasance or covenant defeasance pursuant to Article Fourteen of the Base Indenture or satisfaction and discharge pursuant to Article Four of the Base Indenture, as applicable, at least two Business Days prior to the deposit of trust funds with the Trustee in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Indenture (or, if such Statistical Release is no longer published, any publicly available source of similar market data selected by the Company)) most nearly equal to the period from such Redemption Date to the Par Call Date; provided, however, that if such period is not equal to the constant maturity of the United States Treasury security for which a weekly average yield is given, the Treasury Rate shall be obtained by linear interpolation (calculated to the nearest one‑twelfth of a year) from the weekly average yields of United States Treasury securities for which such yields are given, except that if such period is less than one year, the weekly average yield on actually traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to a constant maturity of one year shall be used.

(8) that if any Note is repurchased only in part a new Note will be issued in principal amount equal to the unrepurchased portion of the Note surrendered.

(d) On or before the Change of Control Repurchase Date for the Notes, the Company will, to the extent lawful:

Further, the Company shall promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order, shall authenticate and mail or deliver (including by book-entry transfer) such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unrepurchased portion of the Note accepted for repurchase (it being understood that, notwithstanding anything in the Indenture to the contrary, no Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel will be required for the Trustee to authenticate and mail or deliver any such new Note). Any new Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered (including by book entry transfer) by the Company or the Trustee to the Holder thereof.

(c) The Trustee or the Collateral Agent, in taking any action under the Security Documents shall be entitled to receive, if requested, as a condition to take any action, an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel (which may be subject to customary assumptions, limitations, qualifications and exceptions) to the effect that such action does not violate the Indenture or the Security Documents, and the Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall be fully protected in relying thereon.

(d) In acting under the Security Documents, the Trustee and Collateral Agent shall each have all the protections, rights, indemnities and immunities given to them under the Indenture.

(a) On or before March 31 in each calendar year, commencing in 2018, the Company shall furnish to the Collateral Agent and the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, as of the date of such opinion, the Security Documents create in favor of the Collateral Agent a security interest in the Collateral and that such security interest is perfected. Such Opinion of Counsel may be subject to customary qualifications, limitations, exceptions and assumptions, and need only address such portion of the Collateral that is addressed in any similar security interest opinion delivered on the Issue Date.

(b) In the event, and solely in the event, that the Company in its sole discretion shall cause the Indenture to be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act and then only during such time, if any, as the Indenture is so qualified, the Company will comply with Sections 314(b) and 314(d) of the Trust Indenture Act, in each case following qualification of the Indenture pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act, if the Company in its sole discretion elects to qualify the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act, except to the extent not required as set forth in any Commission regulation or interpretation or guidance (including any no-action letter or exemptive order issued by the Staff of the Commission, whether issued to the Company or any other Person).

The Trustee shall, to the extent permitted by Section 602 of the Base Indenture, accept as conclusive evidence of compliance with the foregoing provisions the appropriate statements contained in such certificate or opinion.

(d) If any Collateral is released in accordance with the Indenture or any Security Document, and, if at the time of such release the Indenture is qualified under the Trust Indenture Act, the Company will determine whether it has delivered all documentation required by Section 314(d) of the Trust Indenture Act in connection with such release.

Section 6.07. Replacement of Collateral Agent.

(a) No resignation or removal of the Collateral Agent and no appointment of a successor Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section 6.07 shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Collateral Agent in accordance with the requirements of this Section 6.07.

(b) The Collateral Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee (if the Trustee is not the Collateral Agent). If an instrument of acceptance by a successor Collateral Agent shall not have been delivered to the Collateral Agent within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Collateral Agent may petition, at the expense of the Company and the Guarantors, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Collateral Agent.

(c) The Collateral Agent may be removed at any time by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes delivered to the Collateral Agent and to the Company and the Guarantors. If an instrument of acceptance by a successor Collateral Agent shall not have been delivered to the Collateral Agent within 30 days after the delivery of such Act to the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent may petition, at the expense of the Company and the Guarantors, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Collateral Agent.

(d) If at any time the Collateral Agent shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Collateral Agent or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, (i) the Company by or pursuant to a Board Resolution may remove the Collateral Agent and appoint a successor Collateral Agent or (ii) any Holder of a Note who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note for at least six months may, on behalf of itself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Collateral Agent and the appointment of a successor Collateral Agent.

(e) If the Collateral Agent shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of the Collateral Agent for any cause, the Company, by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Collateral Agent. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a

-60-

successor Collateral Agent shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes delivered to the Company and the Guarantors and the retiring Collateral Agent, the successor Collateral Agent so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Collateral Agent and to that extent supersede the successor Collateral Agent appointed by the Company. If no successor Collateral Agent shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders of Notes and accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter provided, any Holder of a Note who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note for at least six months may, on behalf of itself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Collateral Agent.

(f) The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Collateral Agent and each appointment of a successor Collateral Agent in the manner provided for notices to the Holders of Notes in Section 106 of the Base Indenture. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Collateral Agent and the address of its principal office.

(g) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Collateral Agent, such successor Collateral Agent shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and the Guarantors and to the retiring Collateral Agent an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Collateral Agent shall become effective and such successor Collateral Agent, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent; but, on request of the Company, any Guarantor or the successor Collateral Agent, such retiring Collateral Agent shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Collateral Agent all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Collateral Agent, and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Collateral Agent all property and money held by such retiring Collateral Agent under the Indenture, subject nevertheless to any lien and claim such Collateral Agent may have under the Indenture.

(h) Upon request of any such successor Collateral Agent, the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Collateral Agent all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in paragraph (g) of this Section.

(i) Any corporation into which the Collateral Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Collateral Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Collateral Agent, shall be the successor of the Collateral Agent hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto.

Section 13. Discharge, Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance; Covenant Suspension

Subject to certain conditions, the Company at any time may terminate some of or all its obligations under the Notes and the Indenture if the Company deposits with the Trustee money and/or Government Obligations for the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes.

A-10

of, any unpaid interest accrued on, all of the Outstanding Notes to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by the Holders) as provided in the Indenture. If an Event of Default resulting from any Bankruptcy Event involving the Parent, the Company or any Guarantor occurs and is continuing, then all unpaid principal of, and any unpaid interest accrued on, all of the Outstanding Notes shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes may rescind and cancel any such acceleration and its consequences on the terms and subject to the conditions provided in the Indenture.

Section 16. Individual Rights of Trustee and Other Agents

The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company and the Guarantors with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Paying Agent, Security Registrar, Authenticating Agent or any other agent of the Company or any Guarantor may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee must comply with Section 607 of the Base Indenture.

Section 17. Immunity of Partners, Members, Stockholders, Directors, Officers and Agents of the Company and the Guarantors. No recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement contained in the Indenture, the Notes, any Guarantees thereof or the Security Documents, or because of any indebtedness evidenced thereby, shall be had against any past, present or future partner, member, stockholder, employee, officer or director, as such, of the Company, any Guarantor or any Non-Guarantor Security Grantor or of any of the Company’s, any Guarantor’s or any Non-Guarantor Security Grantor’s predecessors or successors, either directly or indirectly, under any rule of law, statute or constitutional provision or by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding or otherwise, all such liability being expressly waived and released by the acceptance of the Notes by the Holders and as part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes.

Section 18. Successors

1. We understand that the Notes have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any state or other securities laws and may not be offered or sold except as permitted below. We agree, by our purchase or other acquisition thereof, on our own behalf and on behalf of any investor account for which we are purchasing or otherwise acquiring the Notes, that, if we decide to offer, sell or otherwise transfer any such Notes prior to (i) the date which is one year after the later of (A) the date of original issuance of such Notes and (B) the last date on which the Company or any Affiliate (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) of the Company was the holder or beneficial owner of such Notes (or any predecessor thereto) and (ii) such later date, if any, as may be required by any subsequent change in applicable law (the “U.S. Resale Restriction Termination Date”), then we will make such offer, sale or other transfer only (a) to the Company, any Affiliate of the Company or Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxx, Inc., Incapital LLC or Sandler X’Xxxxx & Partners, L.P. (b) for so long as such Notes are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act, to a person we reasonably believe is a qualified institutional buyer within the meaning of Rule 144A (a “QIB”) purchasing or otherwise acquiring such Notes for its own account or as fiduciary or agent for others (each of whom must be a QIB) and to whom notice is given that the transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, (c) to an institutional investor that qualifies as an “accredited investor” within the meaning of subparagraph (a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Rule 501 under the Securities Act (an “institutional accredited investor”) purchasing or otherwise acquiring such Notes for its own account or as fiduciary or agent for others (each of whom must also be an institutional accredited investor unless the acquiror is a bank (as defined in Section 3(a)(2) of the Securities Act) or a savings and loan association or other institution as described in Section 3(a)(5)(A) of the Securities Act,

whether acting in its individual capacity or in a fiduciary capacity) for investment purposes and not with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution thereof in violation of the Securities Act, (d) to a non-”U.S. Person” in an “offshore transaction” within the meaning of, and in accordance with, Regulation S under the Securities Act, (e) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, or (f) pursuant to another available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and the securities laws of each other applicable jurisdiction, subject, in each of the foregoing cases, to any requirements of law that govern the disposition of our property. If any sale or other transfer of the Notes is proposed to be made prior to the U.S. Resale Restriction Termination Date, we shall deliver a certificate to the Security Registrar in the form prescribed in the Indenture and, if the transferee is an institutional accredited investor, the transferee shall deliver a certificate to the Security Registrar in the form of this certificate.

We acknowledge that, prior to the U.S. Resale Restriction Termination Date, the Notes will bear a legend to the effect of the foregoing.

2. We are (i) not an Affiliate of the Company and (ii) an institutional accredited investor purchasing or otherwise acquiring the Notes for our own account or as fiduciary or agent for others (each of whom must also be an institutional accredited investor unless the acquiror is a bank (as defined in Section 3(a)(2) of the Securities Act) or a savings and loan association or other institution as described in Section 3(a)(5)(A) of the Securities Act, whether acting in its individual capacity or in a fiduciary capacity) for investment purposes and not with view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution in violation of the Securities Act.
