3. Collateral. Subject to the limitations set
forth in the Indenture (including Section 12.07 thereof) and the Security Documents, to the extent that the Lien on any Collateral is not created and/or perfected for the December 2020 Additional Notes on the date hereof after the Issuer’s use of
commercially reasonable efforts to do so or without undue burden or expense, the Issuer shall take all necessary actions to create and/or perfect such Lien pursuant to arrangements to be mutually agreed between the Issuer and the Notes Collateral
Agent acting reasonably.
4. Ratification of Indenture; First Supplemental Indenture
Part of Indenture. Except as expressly amended hereby, the Indenture is in all respects ratified and confirmed and all the terms, conditions and provisions thereof shall remain in full force and effect. This First Supplemental
Indenture shall form a part of the Indenture for all purposes, and every Holder of Notes heretofore or hereafter authenticated and delivered shall be bound hereby.
5. No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees
and Stockholders. No past, present or future director, manager, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner or stockholder of the Issuer or any Guarantor or any of their parent companies or entities, as such, shall have any
liability for any obligations of the Issuer or the Guarantors under the Notes, the Note Guarantees, the Security Documents, any Intercreditor Agreements, the Indenture or this First Supplemental 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.
6. GOVERNING LAW. THIS FIRST SUPPLEMENTAL
INDENTURE WILL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
7. Severability. In case any provision in this
First Supplemental Indenture or in the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
8. Counterparts. The parties may sign any
number of copies of this First Supplemental Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent the same agreement. The exchange of copies of this First Supplemental Indenture and of signature pages by facsimile, PDF
or other electronic transmission shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this First Supplemental Indenture as to the parties hereto and may be used in lieu of the original First Supplemental Indenture and signature pages for all
purposes. Signatures of the parties hereto transmitted by facsimile, PDF or other electronic transmission shall be deemed to be their original signatures for all purposes.

responsible in any manner whatsoever for or in respect of the validity, sufficiency or adequacy of this First Supplemental Indenture or for or in respect of the statements or recitals contained herein, all of which recitals are made solely by the
