The Securities, any notations thereon relating to the Guarantees and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be, with respect to the 2026 Securities, substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1 hereto, and with respect to the 2028 Securities, substantially in the form of Exhibit A-2 hereto. The Securities may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, securities exchange rule, the Company’s certificate of incorporation, memorandum of association, bye-laws, agreements to which the Company is subject, if any, or usage, provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Company. Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. The Securities shall be in registered form without coupons and issued only in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The terms and provisions contained in the Securities shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture and, to the extent applicable, the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision of any Security conflicts with the express provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture (to the extent permitted by law) shall govern and be controlling.

(b) Global Securities. Securities issued in global form shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1, with respect to the 2026 Securities, and substantially in the form of Exhibit A-2 hereto, with respect to the 2028 Securities (in each case including the Global Security Legend thereon and the Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Security attached thereto). Securities issued in definitive form shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1, with respect to the 2026 Securities, and substantially in the form of Exhibit A-2 hereto, with respect to the 2028 Securities (but without, in each case, the Global Security Legend thereon and without the Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Security attached thereto). Each Global Security shall represent such of the outstanding Securities as shall be specified therein, and each shall provide that it shall represent the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Securities from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Securities represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Security to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Securities represented thereby shall be made by the Securities Custodian, in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.06.

(c) Regulation S Global Securities. Any Securities of either series initially offered and sold in reliance on Regulation S shall be issued initially in the form of a Regulation S Global Security, which shall be deposited on behalf of the purchasers of the Securities represented thereby with the Securities Custodian, and registered in the name of the Depositary or the nominee of the Depositary, duly executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee as hereinafter provided. Prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period, any resale or transfer of beneficial interests in a Regulation S Global Security to U.S. Persons shall not be permitted unless such resale or transfer is made pursuant to Rule 144A or Regulation S.

(d) 144A Global Securities. Any Securities of either series initially offered and sold in reliance on Rule 144A shall be issued initially in the form of a 144A Global Security, which shall be deposited on behalf of the purchasers of the Securities represented thereby with the Securities Custodian, and registered in the name of the Depositary or the nominee of the Depositary, duly executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee as hereinafter provided.

(e) Definitive Securities. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article II, any issuance of Definitive Securities shall be at the Company’s discretion, except in the specific circumstances set forth in Section 2.06(a).

SECTION 2.02. Execution and Authentication. One Officer of the Company shall sign the Securities on behalf of the Company by manual or facsimile signature. The Company’s seal may be (but shall not be required to be) impressed, affixed, imprinted or reproduced on the Securities and may be in facsimile form.

If an Officer of the Company whose signature is on this Indenture or a Security no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates such Security or at any time thereafter, the Security shall be valid nevertheless.

A Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose until authenticated by the manual signature of an authorized signatory of the Trustee or an authenticating agent, as the case may be, which signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Security has been authenticated under this Indenture.

The Trustee shall authenticate and deliver: (1) on the date hereof, Initial 2026 Securities for original issue in an aggregate principal amount of $600,000,000, (2) on the date hereof, Initial 2028 Securities for original issue in an aggregate principal amount of $400,000,000 and (3) if and when issued, Additional Securities of either series (which may be issued in either a registered or a private offering under the Securities Act), in each case upon a written order of the Company signed by one Officer of the Company. Such order shall specify the amount of the Securities of the applicable series to be authenticated and the date on which the issue of such Securities is to be authenticated and whether the Securities are to be in global or definitive form and whether they are to bear the Private Placement Legend. The Company may issue Additional Securities of either series under this Indenture subsequent to the Issue Date, provided that no Additional Securities may be issued at a price that would cause such Additional Securities to have “original issue discount” within the meaning of Section 1273 of the Code. In authenticating such Securities, the Trustee shall receive, and shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon, an Opinion of Counsel substantially to the effect that such Securities and the related Guarantees, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company and the Guarantors, respectively, in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company and the Guarantors, as the case may be, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles.

The aggregate principal amount of Securities of either series outstanding at any time may not exceed the aggregate principal amount of Securities of such series authorized for issuance by the Company pursuant to such written orders of the Company, except as provided in Section 2.07. Subject to the foregoing, the aggregate principal amount of Securities of either series that may be issued under this Indenture shall not be limited.

The Trustee may appoint one or more authenticating agents acceptable to the Company to authenticate Securities. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate Securities whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with the Company, the Guarantors or any of their respective Affiliates.

SECTION 2.03. Registrar and Paying Agent. The Company shall maintain in the continental United States an office or agency where Securities of each series may be presented for registration of transfer or exchange (“Registrar”) and an office or agency where such Securities may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”). The Registrar shall keep a register of the Securities of each series and of their transfer and exchange. The Company may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents with respect to each series of Securities. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar and the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent.

The Company shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Registrar or Paying Agent not a party to this Indenture. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such Agent. The Company shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. If the Company fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

The place of payment with respect to the Securities shall be The City of New York, and the Company hereby initially appoints the Trustee as its Paying Agent in The City of New York, at its Corporate Trust Office in such city, as specified in Section 11.02, the intention of the Company being that the Securities shall at all times be payable in The City of New York.

The immunities, protections and exculpations available to the Trustee under this Indenture shall also be available to each Agent and each authenticating agent, and the Company’s obligations under Section 6.07 to compensate and indemnify the Trustee shall extend likewise to each Agent and each authenticating agent.

The Company initially appoints The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) to act as Depositary with respect to each Global Security.

The Company initially appoints the Trustee to act as Registrar with respect to each Global Security.

SECTION 2.04. Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. The Company shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust for the benefit of Holders of the applicable series or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of or premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest on the Securities of such series, whether such money shall have been paid to it by the Company or the Guarantors, and will notify the Trustee in accordance with Section 11.02 of any default by the Company or the Guarantors in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed. Upon payment over to the Trustee and upon accounting for any funds disbursed, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company) shall have no further liability for the money. If the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent.

SECTION 2.05. Holder Lists. The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of the Holders of each series of Securities and shall otherwise comply with TIA Section 312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar for a series of Securities, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee at least seven Business Days before each Interest Payment Date, and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders of such series of Securities, and the Company shall otherwise comply with TIA Section 312(a).

SECTION 2.06. Transfer and Exchange.

(a) Transfer and Exchange of Global Securities. A Global Security may not be transferred as a whole except by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or to another nominee of the Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. Global Securities also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole, as provided in Section 2.07. Owners of beneficial interests in Global Securities of either series of Securities shall not be entitled to receive Definitive Securities unless:

(1) the Company delivers to the Trustee and the Registrar notice from the Depositary that it is unwilling or unable to continue to act as Depositary or that it is no longer a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case, a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days; or

Upon the occurrence of any of the events in clause (1) or (2) above, Definitive Securities shall be issued in such names and authorized denominations as the Depositary shall instruct the Trustee and the Registrar in accordance with the Applicable Procedures. Neither the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee nor the Registrar will be liable for any delay by the Depositary in identifying the owners of beneficial interests in a Global Security, and each of the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Registrar may conclusively rely on, and will be protected in relying on, instructions from the Depository for all purposes of this Indenture.

(b) Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in the Global Securities. The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in the Global Securities shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture and the Applicable Procedures.

At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Security is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Security or for Definitive Securities, the principal amount of Securities represented by such Global Security shall be reduced accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Security by the Trustee or by the Securities Custodian at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Security, such other Global Security shall be increased accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Security by the Trustee or by the Securities Custodian at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such increase.

(i) General Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges.

(1) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate or cause to be authenticated Global Securities and Definitive Securities upon the Company’s order or at the Registrar’s request.

(2) No service charge shall be made to a holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Security or to a Holder of a Definitive Security for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge or other fee required by law and payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.10, 8.05 and 10.06).

(3) All Global Securities and Definitive Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Securities or Definitive Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global Securities or Definitive Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

(4) The Registrar will not be required to register the transfer of or exchange of any Security selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part.

(5) None of the Company, the Trustee or the Registrar shall be required (A) to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange any Securities during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of sending of a notice of redemption under Section 10.03 and ending at the close of business on such day, (B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Securities so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part or (C) to register the transfer of or to exchange a Security between the record date and the next succeeding interest payment date.

(6) Prior to the due presentation for registration of transfer of any Security, the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar may deem and treat the Person in whose name a Security is registered as the absolute owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving any payment on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security is overdue, and none of the Company, the Guarantor, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

(7) The Trustee shall authenticate or cause to be authenticated Global Securities and Definitive Securities upon receipt of a written order of the Company signed by one of its Officers and in accordance with the other provisions of Section 2.02 to the extent applicable.

(8) All certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to be submitted to the Registrar pursuant to this Section 2.06 to effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by facsimile.

The Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the Depositary with respect to its members, participants and any beneficial owners.

(10) Neither the Trustee nor any Agent shall have any responsibility or liability for any actions taken or not taken by the Depositary.

SECTION 2.07. Replacement Securities. If a mutilated Security is surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder of a Security claims that the Security has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Security if the requirements of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code are met, such that the Holder (a) satisfies the Company or the Trustee within a reasonable time after such Holder has notice of such loss, destruction or wrongful taking and the Registrar does not register a transfer prior to receiving such notification, (b) makes such request to the Company or Trustee prior to the Security being acquired by a protected purchaser as defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code (a “protected purchaser”) and (c) satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Trustee. Such Holder must furnish an indemnity bond that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee, any Agent or any authenticating agent from any loss which any of them may suffer if a Security is replaced. The Company and the Trustee may charge for their expenses in replacing a Security. If, after the delivery of such replacement Security, a protected purchaser of the original Security in lieu of which such replacement Security was issued presents for payment or registration such original Security, the Trustee shall be entitled to recover such replacement Security from the Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking therefrom, except a protected purchaser, and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the Trustee or the Company in connection therewith. Every replacement Security is a contractual obligation of the Company.

In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or wrongfully taken Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security.

The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or wrongfully taken Securities.

SECTION 2.08. Outstanding Securities. The Securities outstanding at any time are all the Securities authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Security effected by the Registrar hereunder and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding; provided, however, that in determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of outstanding Securities are present at a meeting of Holders of Securities for quorum purposes or have consented to or voted in favor of any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver, amendment or modification hereunder, Securities held for the account of the Company or any of its Affiliates shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding, except that in determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in making such a determination or relying upon any such quorum, consent or vote, only Securities which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows to be so owned shall be so disregarded.

If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Security is held by a protected purchaser.

If the principal amount of any Security is considered paid under Section 3.01, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue.

SECTION 2.09. [Reserved.]

SECTION 2.10. Temporary Securities. Until Definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate or cause to be authenticated temporary Securities. Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of Definitive Securities, but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Securities. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Securities in exchange for temporary Securities. Until so exchanged, temporary Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as Definitive Securities.

SECTION 2.11. Cancellation. The Company or the Guarantors at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment.

All canceled Securities held by the Trustee shall be disposed of in accordance with its customary practice (subject to the record retention requirements of the Exchange Act). The Company may not issue new Securities to replace Securities that have been paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

SECTION 2.12. Defaulted Interest. If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Securities, it shall pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest on the defaulted interest, in each case at the rate provided in the Securities and in the manner provided in Section 3.01. The Company may pay the defaulted interest to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date. At least 15 days before any special record date, the Company (or the Trustee, in the name of and at the expense of the Company) shall send to Holders a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid. The Trustee will not have any duty to determine whether any defaulted interest is payable or the amount thereof.

SECTION 2.13. Persons Deemed Owners. The Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent may treat the Person in whose name any Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payments of principal of or premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest on such Security and for all other purposes. None of the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee, any Agent or any authenticating agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

SECTION 2.14. CUSIP Numbers. The Company in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP,” “ISIN” or similar numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use such numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company will promptly notify the Trustee in accordance with Section 11.02 of any change in any such number.

The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies in the continental United States where Securities may be presented or surrendered for any and all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation under Section 2.03 to maintain an office or agency in The City of New York where any Securities may be presented or surrendered for payment. The Company will give to the Trustee prompt notice in accordance with Section 11.02 of the location of any such office or agency and of any change of location thereof. In case the Company shall fail to maintain any such office or agency or shall fail to give such notice of the location or of any change in the location thereof, such surrenders, presentations and demands may be made and notices may be served at the office of the Trustee indicated in Section 11.02, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee its agent to receive at the aforesaid office all such surrenders, presentations, notices and demands.

Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only, and the Trustee’s receipt thereof shall not constitute actual or constructive knowledge or notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any covenants under this Indenture (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officer’s Certificates). The Trustee shall not be obligated to monitor or confirm, on a continuing basis or otherwise, the Company’s compliance with this covenant and shall have no responsibility to determine whether any reports, information or documents have been filed with the Commission via the XXXXX (or successor) filing system, made available electronically or posted on any website.

Each of the Company and the Guarantors covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or 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, which would prohibit or forgive the Company or the Guarantors from paying all or any portion of the principal of or premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest on the Securities 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 they may lawfully do so) each of the Company and the Guarantors 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 3.07. Limitation on Liens. So long as any Securities are outstanding, the Company will not, nor will it permit any Subsidiary to, issue, assume, guarantee or suffer to exist any debt for money borrowed (“Debt”) if such Debt is secured by a mortgage, pledge, security interest or lien (a “mortgage” or “mortgages”) upon any properties of the Company or any Subsidiary or upon any securities or indebtedness of any Subsidiary (whether such properties, securities or indebtedness is now owned or hereafter acquired) without in any such case effectively providing that the Securities shall be secured equally and ratably with (or prior to) such Debt, except that the foregoing restrictions shall not apply to:

(j) mortgages arising by virtue of any statutory or common law provisions relating to bankers’ liens, rights of set-off or similar rights and remedies as to deposit accounts or other funds maintained with a depository institution; provided that:

For the avoidance of doubt, the Receivables Purchase Agreement by and among Nabors A.R.F., LLC, Xxxxxx Delaware, the purchasers party thereto and Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent (the “Receivables Purchase Agreement”), and the Receivables Sale Agreement among Nabors A.R.F., LLC, certain Subsidiaries of the Company and Xxxxxx Delaware (the “Receivables Sale Agreement”), each dated as of September 13, 2019, and related transaction documents do not constitute mortgages.

SECTION 3.08. Payment of Additional Amounts.

(a) All payments made by or on behalf of the Company or any Guarantor under or with respect to the Securities or any Guarantee, as applicable, will be made without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future tax, duty, levy, impost, assessment or other similar governmental charge (collectively, “Taxes”) unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. In the event that any such withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any Taxes is levied by or on behalf of:

(i) Bermuda or any other jurisdiction in which the Company or any Guarantor is incorporated or organized, has its place of central management or central control or is otherwise engaged in business or resident for tax purposes or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof; or

(ii) any jurisdiction from or through which payment is made by or on behalf of the Company or any Guarantor (including, without limitation, the jurisdiction of any Paying Agent) or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof (each of clauses (1) and (2), a “Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction”), the Company or the relevant Guarantor, as the case may be, will pay such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary so that the net amount received by each Holder of Securities will equal the amount that the Holder would have received if the Taxes had not been required to be withheld or deducted; provided that no Additional Amounts will be payable with respect to a payment made to a Holder to the extent:

(1) that any Taxes would not have been so imposed but for the existence of any present or former connection between the Holder and the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, other than the mere receipt of the payment, acquisition, ownership or disposition of such Securities or the exercise or enforcement of rights under the Securities, the Guarantees or this Indenture;

(2) of any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer or personal property Taxes imposed with respect to the Securities or any other Taxes payable other than by withholding or deduction, except as described below or as otherwise provided in this Indenture;

(3) that any such Taxes would not have been imposed but for the presentation of the Securities, where presentation is required, for payment on a date more than 30 days after the date on which the payment became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever is later, except to the extent that the beneficiary or Holder thereof would have been entitled to Additional Amounts had the Securities been presented for payment on any date during such 30-day period;

(4) that the Holder would not be liable or subject to such withholding or deduction of Taxes but for the failure to make a valid declaration of non-residence or other similar claim for exemption, if: (a) the making of the declaration or claim is required or imposed by statute, treaty, regulation, ruling or administrative practice of the relevant taxing authority as a precondition to an exemption from, or reduction in, the relevant Taxes; (b) at least 60 days prior to the first payment with respect to which the Company or such Guarantor shall apply this clause (iv), the Company or such Guarantor shall have notified all holders of the Securities in writing that they shall be required to provide this declaration or claim; and (c) the Holder is legally eligible to provide such declaration or claim;

(5) any Taxes imposed under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code, any successor law or regulation implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, such Sections, any agreement entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b)(1) of the Code, any intergovernmental agreement entered into in connection with the implementation of such Sections of the Code or any fiscal or regulatory legislation, rules or practices adopted pursuant to any such intergovernmental agreement;

(6) any Taxes imposed on overall net income or any branch profits Taxes;

(7) that a beneficiary or settlor with respect to a fiduciary, a member of a partnership or the beneficial owner of the payment would not have been entitled to the Additional Amounts had the beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner been the Holder of a Security in the case of a Holder that is a fiduciary or partnership or a person other than the sole beneficial owner of any such payment;

(8) or any combination of the Taxes and/or withholdings or deductions described in the foregoing clauses (1) through (7).

(b) The Company and such Guarantor shall also (i) withhold or deduct such Taxes as required; (ii) remit the full amount of Taxes deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing authority in accordance with all applicable laws; (iii) use reasonable efforts to obtain from each relevant taxing authority imposing the Taxes certified copies of tax receipts evidencing the payment of any Taxes deducted or withheld; and (iv) upon request, make available to the Holders of the Securities, within 60 days after the date the payment of any Taxes deducted or withheld is due pursuant to applicable law, certified copies of tax receipts evidencing such payment by the Company or such Guarantor and, notwithstanding the Company’s or such Guarantor’s efforts to obtain the receipts, if the same are not obtainable, other evidence of such payments. Each Holder and beneficial owner of the Securities agrees that it shall, upon the request of an applicable withholding agent, provide an applicable IRS Form W-8 or W-9 to the applicable withholding agent.

(c) In addition, the Company or any Guarantor will pay any stamp, issue, registration, documentary or other similar taxes and duties, including interest, penalties and additional amounts with respect thereto, payable in any Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction with respect to the creation, issue, offering, enforcement, redemption or retirement of the Securities or Guarantees.

(d) At least 30 days prior to each date on which any payment under or with respect to the Securities is due and payable, if the Company or any Guarantor becomes obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to such payment, the Company (or in respect of the Guarantees, such Guarantor) shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating the fact that such Additional Amounts will be payable, and the amounts so payable and will set forth such other information as is necessary to enable the Trustee or the Paying Agent to pay such Additional Amounts to the Holders on the payment date.

(e) All references in this Indenture to the payment of principal of and premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest (including defaulted interest), if any, or any other amount payable on or with respect to any of the Securities shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts provided for in this Section 3.08 to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3.08, and express mention of the payment of Additional Amounts in those provisions in this Indenture shall not be construed as excluding Additional Amounts where such express mention is not made (if applicable).

(f) The obligations of the Company and any Guarantor under this Section 3.08 shall survive the termination of this Indenture and the payment of all amounts under or with respect to this Indenture and the Securities.

SECTION 3.09. Limitations on Sale and Lease-Back Transactions. So long as any Securities are outstanding, the Company will not, nor will it permit any Subsidiary to, enter into any Sale and Lease-Back Transaction, other than any Sale and Lease-Back Transaction:

(a) entered into within 360 days of the later of the acquisition or placing into service of the property subject thereto by the Company or such Subsidiary;

(b) involving a lease of less than five years;

(d) between the Company and/or one or more Subsidiaries;

(e) as to which the Company or such Subsidiary would be entitled to incur Debt secured by a mortgage on the property to be leased in an amount equal to the Attributable Debt with respect to such Sale and Lease-Back Transaction without equally and ratably securing the Securities (1) under clauses (a) through (n) of Section 3.07 or (2) under the last paragraph of Section 3.07; or

(f) as to which the Company will apply an amount equal to the net proceeds from the sale of the property so leased to (1) the retirement (other than any mandatory retirement), within 360 days of the effective date of any such Sale and Lease-Back Transaction, of Securities or of Funded Debt of the Company or a Subsidiary or (2) the purchase or construction of other property, provided that such property is owned by the Company or a Subsidiary free and clear of all mortgages.

SECTION 3.10. Change of Control Offer. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event with respect to a series of Securities, each Holder of Securities of that series shall have the right to require the Company to purchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of the Holder’s Securities of such series at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, up to, but excluding, the date of purchase; provided, however, that if such date of purchase is after the taking of a record of the Holders on a record date and on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, the accrued and unpaid interest shall be payable to the Person in whose name the repurchased Securities are registered on such record date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no obligation to repurchase any Securities of a series pursuant to this Section 3.10 to the extent that the Company shall have exercised its right to redeem the Securities of that series pursuant to Section 10.07.

For purposes of this Section 3.10, the term “Change of Control” means the occurrence of any one of the following:

(a) the sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger, amalgamation or consolidation), in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and the Subsidiaries taken as a whole to any “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) other than to the Company or one or more of the Subsidiaries or a combination thereof or a Person controlled by the Company or one or more of the Subsidiaries or a combination thereof;

(b) the first day on which the majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company cease to be Continuing Directors; or

(c) the consummation of any transaction (including without limitation, any merger, amalgamation or consolidation) the result of which is that any “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) (other than any Subsidiary) becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the outstanding Voting Stock of the Company, measured by voting power rather than number of shares (excluding a redomestication of the Company).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction shall not be deemed to involve a “Change of Control” under clause (b) above if (i) the Company becomes a direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of a holding company and (ii)(A) the direct or indirect holders of the Voting Stock of such holding company immediately following such transaction are substantially the same as the holders of the Voting Stock of the Company immediately prior to such transaction or (B) immediately following such transaction no “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) (other than a holding company satisfying the requirements of this sentence) is the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the outstanding Voting Stock of such holding company, measured by voting power rather than number of shares.

For purposes of this Section 3.10, the term “Change of Control Triggering Event” means, with respect to a series of Securities, the ratings of the Securities of such series are lowered by at least two of the three Rating Agencies and, immediately following such lowering, the Securities of such series are not rated Investment Grade by at least two of the three Rating Agencies in any case on any date during the period (the “Trigger Period”) commencing on the date of the first public announcement by the Company of any Change of Control (or pending Change of Control) and ending 60 days following consummation of such Change of Control (which 60-day period will be extended for so long as the rating of the Securities of such series is under publicly announced consideration for a possible downgrade as a result of the Change of Control by any of the Rating Agencies); provided, however, that if the Securities of such series are not rated by all three Rating Agencies, then a “Change of Control Triggering Event” shall occur if the ratings of the Securities of such series are lowered by at least one of the Rating Agencies and, immediately following such lowering, the Securities of such series are not rated Investment Grade by at least one of the Rating Agencies in any case on any date during the Trigger Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Change of Control Triggering Event will be deemed to have occurred in connection with any particular Change of Control unless and until such Change of Control has actually been consummated.

Within 60 days following the date upon which the Change of Control Triggering Event with respect to a series of Securities has occurred, or at the Company’s option, prior to any Change of Control but after the public announcement of the transaction that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control, except to the extent that the Company shall have exercised its right to redeem the Securities of that series pursuant to Section 10.07, the Company shall send a notice (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder of Securities of such series with a copy to the Trustee, which notice will govern the terms of the Change of Control Offer, stating:

(1) that a Change of Control Triggering Event with respect to the Securities of such series has occurred and that such Holder has the right to require the Company to purchase such Holder’s Securities of such series at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to the right of holders of record on a record date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date as provided in the first paragraph of this Section 3.10);

(2) the circumstances regarding such Change of Control Triggering Event;

(3) the purchase date (which shall be (i) no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is sent, if sent after consummation of the Change of Control and (ii) on the date of the Change of Control, if such notice is sent prior to consummation of the Change of Control, in each case, other than as may be required by law) (such date, the “Change of Control Payment Date”); and

(4) the instructions that a Holder must follow in order to have its Securities of that series purchased.

Holders of a series of Securities electing to have Securities purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer must surrender their Securities of the applicable series, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the Security completed, to the Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice, or transfer their Securities to the Paying Agent by book-entry transfer pursuant to the Applicable Procedures, prior to the close of business on the third Business Day prior to the Change of Control Payment Date.

On the Change of Control Payment Date, all Securities purchased by the Company under this Section shall be delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Company shall pay the purchase price plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Holders entitled thereto.

The Company may make a Change of Control Offer in advance of a Change of Control and the Change of Control Payment Date, and its Change of Control Offer may be conditioned upon such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of making the Change of Control Offer.

If Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any series validly tender and do not withdraw the Securities of such series in a Change of Control Offer and the Company, or any third party making a Change of Control Offer in lieu of the Company, as described below, purchases all of the Securities of such series validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Company will have the right, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following such purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer described above, to redeem all of the Securities of such series that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, up to, but excluding, the date of redemption (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date).

Any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.10 shall be made, to the extent applicable, pursuant to the procedures set forth in Sections 10.01 through 10.06.

The Company shall have no obligation to make a Change of Control Offer if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements of this Section 3.10 for such an offer made by the Company, and such third party purchases all Securities properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer.

The Company shall comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Securities pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 3.10, the Company shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations by virtue thereof.

SECTION 3.11. Limitations on Subsidiary Debt.

(a) For so long as any Securities are outstanding, the Company will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to incur, directly or indirectly, any Debt other than:

(i) existing Debt of a Subsidiary of the Company outstanding on the date of issuance of the Securities (other than Debt described in clauses (vii)(A), (viii) or (xiv) of this Section 3.11(a));

(ii) intercompany loans and advances between or among the Company and its Subsidiaries; provided that (a) if the obligor on such intercompany loan or advance is a Guarantor, then such Debt must be expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all obligations with respect to the Guarantee of such Guarantor; and (b)(i) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Capital Stock that results in any such Debt being held by a Person other than the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company and (ii) any sale or other transfer of any such Debt to a Person that is not the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company, will be deemed, in each case, to constitute an incurrence of such Debt by such Subsidiary that was not permitted by this clause (2); provided further that (x) notwithstanding the foregoing, the Guarantors may owe such Debt to the Company or any such Subsidiary up to an aggregate amount $100,000,000 that is not subject to such subordination terms and (y) that any such standalone subordination or intercreditor agreement or such other arrangement shall permit payments in respect of such intercompany indebtedness as long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

(iii) Debt under any Interest Rate Protection Agreements or any Currency Rate Protection Agreements;

(iv) Debt (i) under unsecured lines of credit for overdrafts or for working capital purposes in foreign countries with financial institutions, and (ii) arising from the honoring by a bank or other Person of a check, draft or similar instrument inadvertently drawing against insufficient funds;

(v) Debt of a Person existing at the time such Person becomes a Subsidiary of the Company or is merged, consolidated or amalgamated with or into the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company;

(vi) Debt of any Guarantor that is subordinate in right of payment to the Guarantee of such Guarantor;

(vii) (A) Debt represented by the Securities and the Guarantees, (B) other Debt Incurred by any Guarantor and (C) Non-Guaranteed Debt, including in each case any extension, renewal, refunding, replacement or refinancing (collectively, a “refinancing”) of Debt incurred under this clause (vii), provided that after giving effect to any such refinancing, the principal amount of Debt incurred pursuant to clauses (vii)(A) and (B) in the aggregate and then outstanding does not exceed $1.5 billion;

(viii) Debt Incurred pursuant to Credit Facilities in an aggregate amount at any one time outstanding under this clause (viii) not to exceed an amount equal to (A) the greater of (i) $1.7 billion and (ii) 10.0% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets, less (B) the total Aggregate Debt outstanding at the time of such incurrence (without double counting for Aggregate Debt Incurred under this clause (viii)), measured at the time of incurrence of any such Debt and after giving effect to such incurrence;

(ix) Debt in respect of current accounts payable and accrued expenses incurred in the ordinary course of business;

(x) Debt, which may include purchase money Debt, capital lease or finance lease obligations or mortgage financings, incurred to finance the purchase, installation, construction, design or improvement, or capital lease or finance lease of assets (including equipment) or property (real or personal) (whether through the direct purchase of assets or the capital stock of any person owning such assets) and related taxes and transaction costs provided that (i) such Debt when incurred shall not exceed 85% of the purchase price of the asset(s) or person financed and all fees, premium, costs and expenses relating thereto, including attorney and legal, accounting, expert, and professional advisor fees and expenses; and (ii) no such Debt shall be refinanced for a principal amount in excess of the principal balance outstanding thereon at the time of such refinancing plus all fees, premium, costs and expenses relating thereto, including attorney and legal, accounting, expert, and professional advisor fees and expenses;

(xi) Debt under performance guaranties, performance bonds and letters of credit issued in the ordinary course of business and serving as a financial or performance guaranty (other than as a guaranty of Debt for borrowed money);

(xii) Debt under documentary credits issued in connection with the purchase of goods in the ordinary course of business;

(xiii) Debt in respect of any Permitted Accounts Receivables Sales Facility; and

(xiv) any refinancing of Debt Incurred pursuant to the foregoing clauses (i), (v) and this clause (xiv), provided, that (i) such refinancing Debt will not exceed the principal amount of Debt so refinanced plus an amount necessary to pay fees and expenses, including premiums, related to such refinancing (ii) the scheduled maturity date thereof is not shortened (except to the extent such shortened maturity date is subsequent to the Stated Maturity and (iii) such refinancing Debt and any guarantees thereof are Incurred solely by the obligors and guarantors, if any, of the Debt so refinanced).

Debt permitted by this Section 3.11(a) need not be permitted solely by reference to one provision permitting such Debt but may be permitted in part by one such provision and in part by one or more other provisions of this Section 3.11(a) permitting such Debt. In the event that an item of Debt meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Debt described in this Section 3.11(a), the Company will be permitted, in its sole discretion, to divide, classify or reclassify all or a portion of such item of Debt and only be required to include the amount of such Debt in one of such clauses. For the avoidance of doubt, the Receivables Purchase, the Receivables Sale Agreement, and related transaction documents do not constitute Debt.

(b) This covenant shall not apply during such time as the Securities are rated Investment Grade by at least two of the three Rating Agencies and no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture. The Trustee shall not have any obligation to monitor the ratings of the Securities.

ARTICLE IV

(i) the Person formed by such consolidation or amalgamation or into which the Company is merged or the Person which acquires by conveyance or transfer, or which leases, the properties and assets of the Company substantially as an entirety shall be a Person organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, and shall expressly assume, by an indenture supplemental hereto, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, the due and punctual payment of the principal of and interest on all the Securities and the performance of every covenant of this Indenture on the part of the Company to be performed;

(ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and

ARTICLE V
DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

SECTION 5.01. Events of Default. “Event of Default” means, with respect to a Series of Securities, any one of the following events (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):

(i) default in the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, on any Security of such series at its Maturity, and continuance of such default for a period of 10 days; or

(iv) the entry by a court having jurisdiction in the premises of (A) a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company or a Guarantor in an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable Bankruptcy Law or (B) a decree or order adjudging the Company or a Guarantor a bankrupt or insolvent, or approving as properly filed a petition seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect of the Company or a Guarantor under any applicable Bankruptcy Law, or appointing a custodian, receiver, receiver and manager, interim receiver, administrator, monitor, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or other similar official of the Company or a Guarantor or of any substantial part of the property of the Company or a Guarantor, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of the affairs of the Company or a Guarantor, and the continuance of any such decree or order for relief or any such other decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period of 90 consecutive days; or

(v) the commencement by the Company or a Guarantor of a voluntary case or proceeding under any applicable Bankruptcy Law or of any other case or proceeding to be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or the consent by either of them to the entry of a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company or a Guarantor in an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable Bankruptcy Law or to the commencement of any bankruptcy or insolvency case or proceeding against any of them, or the filing by any of them of a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization or relief under any applicable Bankruptcy Law, or the consent by any of them to the filing of such petition or to the appointment of or taking possession by a custodian, receiver, receiver and manager, interim receiver, administrator, monitor, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or similar official of the Company or a Guarantor or of any substantial part of the property of the Company or a Guarantor, or the making by either of them of an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the admission by either of them in writing of its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, or the taking of corporate action by the Company or a Guarantor in furtherance of any such action; or

(vi) the Guarantees of the Securities by any of the Guarantors of such series cease to be in full force and effect or become unenforceable or invalid or are declared null and void (other than in accordance with the terms of such Guarantees) or a Guarantor denies or disaffirms its obligations under such Guarantee.

The Trustee shall not be deemed to know of a Default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee has actual knowledge of such Default or Event of Default or the Trustee receives notice given in accordance with Section 11.02, at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, of such Default or Event of Default with specific reference to such Default, the Securities and this Indenture.

When a Default is cured, or when an Event of Default is deemed cured pursuant to Section 5.04, such Default, or Event of Default, as the case may be, ceases.

SECTION 5.02. Acceleration. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (iv) or (v) of Section 5.01) occurs and is continuing with respect to a series of Securities, the Trustee by notice to the Company and the Guarantors, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of that series by written notice to the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee, may declare the principal of, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on all then outstanding Securities of that series to be due and payable immediately. Upon any such declaration the amounts due and payable on the Securities of such series, as determined in accordance with the final paragraph of this Section 5.02, shall be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified in clause (iv) or (v) of Section 5.01 occurs, the principal of, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and interest on all Securities then outstanding shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration, notice or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.

At any time after such an acceleration of a series of Securities has occurred and before a judgment for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article V provided, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of that series, by written notice to the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such acceleration and its consequences if:

(1) the Company or the Guarantors have paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay:

(A) the principal of and premium, if any, on any Securities of that series which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and Additional Amounts, if any, and any interest thereon then due at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities or in this Indenture,

(B) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest and overdue Additional Amounts, if any, at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities or in this Indenture, and

(C) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the compensation, reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel; and

(2) all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of the principal of Securities which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.04.

No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

If the Maturity of the Securities is accelerated pursuant to this Section 5.02, 100% of the principal amount thereof and premium, if any, shall become due and payable plus Additional Amounts, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest to the date of payment.

SECTION 5.03. Other Remedies. If an Event of Default with respect to a series of Securities occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal of, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest on the Securities or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Securities of that series, the related Guarantees or this Indenture.

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Securities or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

SECTION 5.04. Waiver of Existing Defaults. Subject to Sections 5.07 and 8.02, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of either series then outstanding, by notice to the Trustee, may waive an existing Default or Event of Default with respect to that series and its consequences (including waivers obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for such Securities or a solicitation of consents in respect of such Securities, provided that in each case such offer or solicitation is made to all Holders of the Securities of that series then outstanding on equal terms), except (1) a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest on the Securities of that series or (2) a continuing Default relating to that series in respect of a provision that under Section 8.02 cannot be amended without the consent of each Holder affected. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

SECTION 5.05. Control by Majority. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of either series of Securities then outstanding may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee with respect to that series or exercising any trust or power conferred on it hereunder with respect to that series. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with applicable law or this Indenture that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not any such direction unduly prejudices the rights of such Holders), or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability; provided, however, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction. Prior to taking any action hereunder, the Trustee shall receive indemnification from such Holders satisfactory to it against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action subject to the Trustee’s duty to act with the required standard of care during a default.

SECTION 5.06. Limitations on Suits. Subject to Section 5.07, a Holder of Securities of either series may pursue a remedy with respect to this Indenture (including the Guarantees) or the Securities of that series only if:

(i) such Holder gives to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to that series;

(ii) the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such series then outstanding make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

(iii) such Holder or Holders furnish to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense;

(iv) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the furnishing of such indemnity; and

(v) during such 60-day period the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such series then outstanding do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request.

A Holder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not such action or forbearances are unduly prejudicial to such Holders or obtain a preference or priority over another Holder).

SECTION 5.07. Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Security to receive payment of principal of and premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and interest on the Security, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Security, or to bring suit against the Company or the Guarantors for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, is absolute and unconditional and shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder or obtain a preference or priority over another Holder.

SECTION 5.08. Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default specified in clause (i) or (ii) of Section 5.01 occurs with respect to a series of Securities and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company and the Guarantors (i) for the amount of principal of and premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and interest remaining unpaid on any Securities of such series and (ii) interest on overdue principal, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and, to the extent lawful, interest on overdue interest, and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the reasonable and documented costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable and documented compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

SECTION 5.09. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents and to take such actions, including participating as a member, voting or otherwise, of any committee of creditors, as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the compensation, reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company and the Guarantors or their respective creditors or properties and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding 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 compensation, reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07 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 of the Securities may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

SECTION 5.10. Priorities. If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article V, it shall pay out the money in the following order:

First: to the Trustee, its agents and attorneys for amounts due under Section 6.07 hereof, including payment of all compensation, expenses 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 Securities for principal, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and interest ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Securities for principal, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and interest, respectively; and

Third: to the Company and the Guarantors.

The Trustee, upon prior written notice to the Company and the Guarantors, may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Article V. At least 15 days before such record date, the Trustee shall send to each Holder and the Company a notice that states the record date, the payment date and amount to be paid.

SECTION 5.11. 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 a 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, 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 5.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 5.07, or a suit by a Holder or Holders of more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding.

ARTICLE VI
TRUSTEE

SECTION 6.01. Duties of Trustee.

(a) If an Event of Default 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 such exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.

(b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:

(i) the duties of the Trustee will be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture and the Trustee need perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

(ii) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee 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 and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. However, the Trustee shall examine such certificates and opinions to determine whether or not, on their face, they appear to conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein).

(c) The Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that:

(i) this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section 6.01;

(ii) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

(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 5.05 hereof.

(d) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 6.01.

(f) The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Company. Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

(g) In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

SECTION 6.02. Rights of Trustee.

(a) The Trustee may rely conclusively on any resolution, certificate, statement, direction, consent, order, bond, note or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in any such paper or document.

(e) Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture, any demand, request, direction or notice from the Company or a Guarantor shall be sufficient if signed by an Officer of the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be.

(f) No provision of this Indenture will require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or incur any liability.

(g) The Trustee is not required to give any bond or surety with respect to the performance of its duties or the exercise of its powers under this Indenture.

(h) The Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith at the direction of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Securities as to the time, method and place of conducting any proceedings for any remedy available to the Trustee or the exercising of any power conferred by this Indenture.

(i) The Trustee’s immunities and protections from liability and its right to indemnification in connection with the performance of its duties under this Indenture shall extend and be enforceable by the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder and shall extend to the Trustee’s officers, directors, agents, attorneys and employees. Such immunities and protections and right to indemnity, together with the Trustee’s right to compensation, shall survive the Trustee’s resignation or removal, the discharge of this Indenture and final payment of the Securities.

(j) 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.

(k) Except for information provided by the Trustee concerning the Trustee, the Trustee shall have no responsibility for any information in the Offering Memorandum or other disclosure material distributed with respect to the Securities, and the Trustee shall have no responsibility for compliance with any U.S. Federal or State securities or employee benefit plan laws in connection with the Securities.

(l) The Trustee may request that the Company or any Guarantor, as the case may be, deliver an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture, which Officer’s 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.

SECTION 6.03. Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Company, the Guarantors or any of their Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee. Any Agent may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee is subject to Sections 6.10 and 6.11.

SECTION 6.04. Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture, the Securities or the Guarantees, it shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the Securities or any money paid to the Company or upon the Company’s direction under any provision hereof, it shall not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee and it shall not be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Securities or any other document in connection with the sale of the Securities or pursuant to this Indenture other than its certificate of authentication.

SECTION 6.05. Notice of Defaults. If a Default or Event of Default with respect to a series of Securities occurs and is continuing and it is actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall send to the Holders of such Securities a notice of such Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of or premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest on any Security, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as it in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Holders.

SECTION 6.06. Reports by Trustee to Holders. By July 15 of each year, beginning with July 15, 2020, the Trustee shall send to Holders a brief report dated as of May 15 of such year that complies with TIA Section 313(a); provided, however, that if no event described in TIA Section 313(a) has occurred within the 12 months preceding the reporting date, no report need be transmitted. The Trustee also shall comply with TIA Section 313(b). The Trustee shall also deliver all reports as required by TIA Sections 313(c) and 313(d).

A copy of each report at the time it is sent to Holders shall be filed with the SEC and each securities exchange, if any, on which the Securities of either series are listed. The Company shall notify the Trustee in the manner provided in Section 11.02 if and when the Securities are listed on, or delisted from, any securities exchange.

SECTION 6.07. Compensation and Indemnity. The Company and the Guarantors jointly and severally agree to pay to the Trustee from time to time such reasonable compensation, for its acceptance of this Indenture and its services hereunder. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Company and the Guarantors jointly and severally agree to reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable and documented disbursements, advances and expenses incurred by it. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel.

The Company and the Guarantors jointly and severally agree to indemnify, defend and protect the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee and their agents, employees, officers and directors for and to hold them harmless against any and all loss, liability, damage, claim, or expense (including reasonable and documented fees and expenses of counsel and taxes, other than taxes based upon, measured by or determined by the income of the Trustee) and court costs incurred by it arising out of or in connection with this Indenture or the administration of this trust, including the reasonable and documented costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Company and of defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Company, the Guarantors, any Holder or any other Person), except as set forth in the next paragraph. The Trustee shall notify the Company and the Guarantors promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity; however, failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Company or the Guarantors of their obligations. The Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel, and the Company and the Guarantors shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither the Company nor the Guarantors shall be obligated to reimburse any fee or expense or indemnify against any loss, liability, damage, claim or expense incurred by the Trustee through its own gross negligence or willful misconduct (as found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment).

To secure the payment obligations of the Company and the Guarantors in this Section 6.07, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal of and premium, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any, and interest on the Securities. Such lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(iv) or (v) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

SECTION 6.08. Replacement of Trustee. A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 6.08.

The Trustee may resign and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so notifying the Company and the Guarantors. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of both series, voting as a single class, may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Company in writing. The Company may remove the Trustee if:

(i) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.10;

(ii) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law;

(iii) a Custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or

(iv) the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Company and the Guarantors shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of both series then outstanding, voting as a single class, may appoint a successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Company.

If a successor Trustee does not take office within 30 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee (at the Company’s expense), the Company or the Holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may petition any court of competent jurisdiction at the expense of the Company for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.10, any Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company and the Guarantors. Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall send a notice of its succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided for in Section 6.07. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.08, the obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under Section 6.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

SECTION 6.09. Successor Trustee by Merger, etc. Subject to Section 6.10, if the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another business entity, such entity without any further act shall be the successor Trustee; provided, however, that in the case of a transfer of all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to another corporation, the transferee corporation expressly assumes all of the Trustee’s liabilities hereunder.

In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Securities shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Securities either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Securities or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have.

SECTION 6.10. Eligibility; Disqualification. There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia and authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust power, shall be subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State (or the District of Columbia) authority and shall have, or be a Subsidiary of a bank or bank holding company having, a combined capital and surplus of at least $50 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition.

This Indenture shall always have a Trustee that satisfies the requirements of TIA Sections 310(a)(1), 310(a)(2) and 310(a)(5). The Trustee is subject to and shall comply with the provisions of TIA Section 310(b) during the period of time required by this Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture shall prevent the Trustee from filing with the SEC the application referred to in the penultimate paragraph of TIA Section 310(b).

SECTION 6.11. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. The Trustee is subject to and shall comply with the provisions of TIA Section 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA Section 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA Section 311(a) to the extent indicated therein.

ARTICLE VII
DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE

SECTION 7.01. Termination of Company’s and Guarantors’ Obligations.

(a) Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. This Indenture shall cease to be of further effect with respect to a series of Securities (except as provided in the last paragraph of this Section 7.01(a)), and the Trustee, on demand of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to such series, when:

(1) either

(A) all outstanding Securities of such series theretofore authenticated and issued (other than destroyed, lost or wrongfully taken Securities that have been replaced or paid) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

(B) all outstanding Securities of such series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation:

(i) have become due and payable,

(ii)   will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year, or

(iii) will be scheduled for redemption by their terms within one year, and the Company, in the case of clause (i) or (ii) above or this clause (iii), has deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as funds (immediately available to the Holders of such series in the case of clause (i)) in trust for such purpose an amount of cash or, in the case of clause (ii) or this clause (iii), U.S. Government Obligations or a combination thereof which, together with earnings thereon, will be sufficient, in the case of clause (ii) or this clause (iii), in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities for principal, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and interest to the date of such deposit (in the case of Securities which have become due and payable) or to the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be;

(2) the Company has paid all other sums payable by it hereunder with respect to such series of Securities; and

(3) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to such series of Securities have been complied with, together with an Opinion of Counsel to the same effect.

However, the Company’s obligations in Sections 2.03, 2.06, 2.07, 3.02 and 7.01, the Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations in Sections 6.07, 6.08 and 7.04 and the Trustee’s and Paying Agent’s obligations in Section 7.03 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture until the Securities of such series are no longer outstanding. Thereafter, only the Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations in Section 6.07 and the Trustee’s and Paying Agent’s obligations in Section 7.03 shall survive with respect to such series of Securities. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood that the Company may discharge its obligations with respect to a series of Securities without discharging its obligations with respect to the other series of Securities.

(b) Legal Defeasance. The Company and the Guarantors may, subject as provided herein, terminate by legal defeasance all of their obligations under this Indenture with respect to a series of Securities if:

(i) the Company has irrevocably deposited or caused to be irrevocably deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the following payments dedicated solely to the benefit of the Holders of such Securities (A) cash in an amount, or (B) U.S. Government Obligations, or (C) a combination thereof, sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay, without consideration of the reinvestment of any such amounts and after payment of all taxes or other charges or assessments in respect thereof payable by the Trustee, the principal of and premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any and interest on all Securities of such series on each date that such principal, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest is due and payable and to pay all other sums payable by it hereunder with respect to such series of Securities; provided that the Trustee shall have been irrevocably instructed to apply such money or the proceeds of such U.S. Government Obligations to the payment of said principal, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and interest with respect to the Securities of such series as the same shall become due;

(ii) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that all conditions precedent to such legal defeasance have been complied with, and an Opinion of Counsel to the same effect;

(iii) no Default or Event of Default with respect to such series of Securities shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or, insofar as clauses (iv) and (v) of Section 5.01 are concerned, at any time during the period ending on the 91st day after the date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such period);

(iv) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel from nationally recognized counsel acceptable to the Trustee to the effect that, based on a ruling of the Internal Revenue Service or a change in U.S. Federal income tax law occurring after the date of this Indenture, the Holders of Securities of such series will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. Federal income tax purposes as a result of the Company’s exercise of its option under this Section 7.01(b) and will be subject to U.S. Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such option had not been exercised;

(v) such deposit and legal defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other agreement or instrument to which the Company or any Guarantor is a party or by which it is bound;

(vi) such deposit and legal defeasance shall not cause the Trustee to have a conflicting interest as defined in TIA Section 310(b); and

(vii) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that after the passage of 91 days following the deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally.

In such event, payment of the Securities of such series may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default, Article IX and the other provisions of this Indenture shall cease to be of further effect (except as provided in the next succeeding paragraph), and the Trustee, on demand of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging such legal defeasance.

However, the Company’s obligations in Sections 2.03, 2.06, 2.07, 3.02 and 7.01, the Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations in Sections 6.07, 6.08 and 7.04 and the Trustee’s and Paying Agent’s obligations in Section 7.03 shall survive such legal defeasance with respect to such series of Securities until the Securities are no longer outstanding. Thereafter, only the Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations in Section 6.07 and the Trustee’s and Paying Agent’s obligations in Section 7.03 shall survive with respect to such series of Securities. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood that the Company may terminate by legal defeasance the obligations of the Company and the Guarantors with respect to one series of Securities without terminating their obligations with respect to the other series of Securities.

(c) Covenant Defeasance. The Company and the Guarantors may, subject as provided herein, be released from their respective obligations to comply with, and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation, set forth in Sections 3.07, 3.08, 3.09 and 4.01 and in Article IX, and such omission to comply with any of Sections 3.07, 3.08, 3.09 and 4.01 and Article IX shall not constitute an Event of Default with respect to a series of Securities under Section 5.01 (“Covenant Defeasance”), with the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities unaffected thereby if:

(i) the Company has irrevocably deposited or caused to be irrevocably deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the following payments dedicated solely to the benefit of the Holders of such series of Securities (A) cash in an amount, or (B) U.S. Government Obligations, or (C) a combination thereof, sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay, without consideration of the reinvestment of any such amounts and after payment of all taxes or other charges or assessments in respect thereof payable by the Trustee, the principal of and premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any and interest on all Securities of such series on each date that such principal, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest is due and payable and to pay all other sums payable by it hereunder with respect to such series of Securities; provided that the Trustee shall have been irrevocably instructed to apply such money and/or the proceeds of such U.S. Government Obligations to the payment of said principal, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and interest with respect to the Securities as the same shall become due;

(ii) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that all conditions precedent to the Covenant Defeasance contemplated by this provision have been complied with, and an Opinion of Counsel to the same effect;

(iv) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel from nationally recognized counsel acceptable to the Trustee to the effect that the Holders of Securities of such series will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. Federal income tax purposes as a result of the Company’s exercise of its option under this Section 7.01(c) and will be subject to U.S. Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such option had not been exercised;

(v) such Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other agreement or instrument to which the Company or any Guarantor is a party or by which it is bound;

(vi) such Covenant Defeasance shall not cause the Trustee to have a conflicting interest as defined in TIA Section 310(b); and

(d) In order to have money available on a payment date to pay principal of or premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest on the Securities, the U.S. Government Obligations shall be payable as to principal or interest on or before such payment date in such amounts as will provide the necessary money. U.S. Government Obligations shall not be callable at the issuer’s option.

(e) The Company may exercise its option under Section 7.01(b) notwithstanding its prior exercise of its Covenant Defeasance option under Section 7.01(c).

(f) For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood that the Company may exercise its covenant defeasance option with respect to one series of Securities without affecting the obligations of the Company and the Guarantors with respect to the other series of Securities.

SECTION 7.02. Application of Trust Money. The Trustee or a trustee satisfactory to the Trustee and the Company shall hold in trust money or U.S. Government Obligations deposited with it pursuant to Section 7.01. It shall apply the deposited money and the money from U.S. Government Obligations through the Paying Agent and in accordance with this Indenture to the payment of principal of and premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and interest on Securities with respect to which the deposit was made.

The Company will pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 7.01 hereof 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 the outstanding Securities.

SECTION 7.03. Repayment to Company. The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall promptly pay to the Company upon written request any excess money or securities held by them at any time. Subject to the requirements of any applicable abandoned property laws, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Company upon written request any money held by them for the payment of principal of, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest that remains unclaimed for two years after the date upon which such payment shall have become due; provided, however, that the Company shall have either caused notice of such payment to be sent to each Holder entitled thereto no less than 30 days prior to such repayment or within such period shall have published such notice in a financial newspaper of widespread circulation published in The City of New York. After payment to the Company, Holders entitled to the money must look to the Company for payment as unsecured general creditors unless an applicable abandoned property law designates another Person, and all liability of the Trustee and the Paying Agent with respect to such money shall cease.

SECTION 7.04. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 7.01 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 obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under this Indenture and the relevant series of Securities shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 7.01 until such time as the Trustee or the Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 7.01; provided, however, that if the Company or the Guarantors have made any payment of principal of or interest on any Securities because of the reinstatement of their obligations, the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be, shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or the Paying Agent.

ARTICLE VIII
AMENDMENTS

SECTION 8.01. Without Consent of Holders. The Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture or any of the Securities of either series or waive any provision hereof or thereof without the consent of any Holder:

(i) to convey, transfer, assign, mortgage or pledge to the Trustee as security for the Securities of such series any property or assets;

(ii) to evidence the succession of another Person to the Company or the Guarantors, or successive successions, and the assumption by the successor Person of the covenants, agreements and obligations of the Company or a Guarantor pursuant to Section 4.01 or 9.03;

(iii) to add to the covenants of the Company or the Guarantors such further covenants, restrictions, conditions or provisions as the Company or the Guarantors and the Trustee shall consider to be for the protection of the Holders of Securities of such series, to surrender any right or power herein conferred upon the Company or the Guarantors, and to make the occurrence, or the occurrence and continuance, of a default in any such additional covenants, restrictions, conditions or provisions an Event of Default with respect to such series of Securities permitting the enforcement of all or any of the several remedies provided in this Indenture, provided that in respect of any such additional covenant, restriction, condition or provision such amendment or supplement may provide for a particular period of grace after default (which period may be shorter or longer than that allowed in the case of other defaults) or may provide for an immediate enforcement upon such an Event of Default or may limit the remedies available to the Trustee upon such an Event of Default or may limit the right of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such series to waive such an Event of Default;

(iv) to cure any ambiguity or omission or to correct or supplement any provision contained herein or in any supplemental indenture which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision contained herein or in any supplemental indenture, provided that no such action shall adversely affect the interests of the Holders of the Securities of such series;

(v) to provide for uncertificated Securities of such series in addition to or in place of certificated Securities of such series, provided that the uncertificated Securities are issued in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of the Code;

(vi) to provide for the issuance of Additional Securities of such series and related Guarantees in accordance with this Indenture;

(vii) to effect or maintain, or otherwise comply with the requirements of the SEC in connection with, the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA;

(viii) to effect any provision of this Indenture;

(ix) to release the Guarantee of any Guarantor in accordance with Section 9.05 of this Indenture;

(x) to conform the text of this Indenture or the Securities of such series to the “Description of the Notes” set forth in the Offering Memorandum to the extent such provision in the “Description of the Notes” was intended to be a verbatim, or substantially verbatim, recitation of provision if this Indenture or the Securities of such series (which intent may be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate to such effect); or

(xi) to make any other change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder of the Securities of such series.

Upon the request of the Company and the Guarantors and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 8.06, the Trustee shall join with the Company and the Guarantors in the execution of any supplemental indenture entered into to effect any such amendment, supplement or waiver.

SECTION 8.02. With Consent of Holders. Except as provided in Section 8.01 or below in this Section 8.02, the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture or either series of the Securities with the consent (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for such Securities or a solicitation of consents in respect of such Securities, provided that in each case such offer or solicitation is made to all Holders of the Securities of such series then outstanding on equal terms) of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such series then outstanding affected thereby.

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of either series then outstanding may waive compliance in a particular instance by the Company or the Guarantors with any provision of this Indenture or the Securities of such series (including waivers obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for such Securities or a solicitation of consents in respect of such Securities, provided that in each case such offer or solicitation is made to all Holders of the Securities of such series then outstanding on equal terms).

Upon the request of the Company and the Guarantors and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the consent of the Holders as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 8.06, the Trustee shall join with the Company and the Guarantors in the execution of any supplemental indenture entered into to effect any such amendment, supplement or waiver. After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 8.02 becomes effective, the Company shall send to the Holders of each Security of the series affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to send such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amendment, supplement or waiver.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 8.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

Without the consent of each Holder of the series affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 8.02 may not:

(i) extend the final maturity of the principal of any of the Securities of such series;

(ii) reduce the principal amount of any of the Securities of such series;

(iii) reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest, including defaulted interest, or Additional Amounts, if any, on any of the Securities of such series;

(iv) reduce any amount payable on redemption of any of the Securities of such series (other than as a result of the shortening of the required notice period for redemption);

(v) change the currency in which the principal of or premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest on any of the Securities of such series is payable;

(vi) impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment of principal of or premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest on any Security of such series pursuant to Sections 5.07 and 5.08, except as limited by Section 5.06;

(vii) change the ranking of the Securities of such series or the Guarantees thereof;

(viii) make any change in the percentage of principal amount of the Securities of such series necessary to waive compliance with or to modify certain provisions of this Indenture pursuant to Section 5.04 or 5.07 or this clause of this Section 8.02; or

(ix) waive a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of or premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest, including defaulted interest, on the Securities of such series.

The right of any Holder to participate in any consent required or sought pursuant to any provision of this Indenture (and the obligation of the Company to obtain any such consent otherwise required from such Holder) may be subject to the requirement that such Holder shall have been the Holder of record of the Securities as of a record date fixed by the Company in accordance with Section 8.04 of this Indenture.

SECTION 8.03. Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Securities shall comply in form and substance with the TIA as then in effect.

SECTION 8.04. Revocation and Effect of Consents. A consent to an amendment, a supplement or a waiver by a Holder is a continuing consent by the Holder and every subsequent Holder of a Security or portion of a Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Security. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to its Security or portion of a Security if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation at any time prior to (but not after) the date the Trustee receives an Officer’s Certificate certifying that the Holders of the requisite aggregate principal amount of Securities of the applicable series have consented (and not theretofore revoked such consent) to the amendment, supplement or waiver.

The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any amendment, supplement or waiver or to take any other action with respect to the Securities under this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the provisions of the immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at the close of business on such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to consent to such amendment, supplement or waiver or to revoke any consent previously given, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date, and for this purpose the Securities then outstanding shall be computed as of such record date. No consent shall be valid or effective for more than 90 days after such record date unless consents from Holders of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities required hereunder for such amendment, supplement or waiver to be effective shall have also been given and not revoked within such 90-day period.

After an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder, unless it is of the type described in any of clauses (i) through (viii) of Section 8.02. In such case, the amendment, supplement or waiver shall bind each Holder who has consented to it and every subsequent Holder that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security.

SECTION 8.05. Notation on or Exchange of Securities. If an amendment or supplement changes the terms of a Security, the Trustee may require the Holder of the Security to deliver it to the Trustee. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Security regarding the changed terms and return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Company or the Trustee so determines, the Company in exchange for the Security shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Security that reflects the changed terms. Failure to make the appropriate notation or to issue a new Security shall not affect the validity of such amendment or supplement.

SECTION 8.06. Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc. The Trustee shall sign any supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article VIII if the supplemental indenture does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may, but need not, sign it. In signing or refusing to sign such supplemental indenture, the Trustee shall receive, and subject to Section 6.01, shall be fully protected in conclusively relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel and an Officer’s Certificate, as conclusive evidence that all conditions precedent to such supplemental indenture have been complied with, that such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture, that it is not inconsistent herewith, and that it will be valid and binding upon the Company and the Guarantors in accordance with its terms.

ARTICLE IX
GUARANTEES OF SECURITIES

SECTION 9.01. Unconditional Guarantees.

(a) For value received, each of the Guarantors hereby fully, irrevocably, unconditionally and absolutely guarantees to the Holders and to the Trustee the due and punctual payment of the principal of and premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and interest on the Securities and all other amounts due and payable under this Indenture and the Securities by the Company (including, without limitation, all costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and disbursements) incurred by the Trustee or the Holders in connection with the enforcement of this Indenture, the Securities and the Guarantees) (collectively, the “Indenture Obligations”), when and as such principal, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and interest and such other amounts shall become due and payable, whether at the Stated Maturity, upon redemption or by declaration of acceleration or otherwise, according to the terms of the Securities and this Indenture. The guarantees by the Guarantors set forth in this Article IX are referred to herein as the “Guarantees.” Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor’s liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Indenture Obligations and would be owed by the Company under this Indenture and the Securities but for the fact that they are unenforceable, reduced, limited, impaired, suspended or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving the Company.

(b) Failing payment when due of any amount guaranteed pursuant to the Guarantees, for whatever reason, the Guarantors will be obligated to pay the same immediately to the Trustee, without set-off or counterclaim or other reduction whatsoever (whether for taxes, withholding or otherwise). The Guarantees are intended to be general, unsecured, senior obligations of each Guarantor and to rank pari passu in right of payment with all indebtedness of such Guarantor that is not, by its terms, expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Guarantees of such Guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be full, irrevocable, unconditional and absolute, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the obligations and liabilities of any other obligor with respect to the Securities, the Guarantees or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof with respect to the same, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of such Guarantor.

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that in the event of a default in payment of the principal of or premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest on the Securities of either series or any other amounts payable under this Indenture and such Securities by the Company, whether at the Stated Maturity, upon redemption or by declaration of acceleration or otherwise, legal proceedings may be instituted by the Trustee on behalf of the Holders or, subject to Section 5.06, by the Holders, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Indenture, directly against such Guarantor to enforce the Guarantees of such series without first proceeding against the Company.

(c) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the obligations of each Guarantor under this Article IX shall be as aforesaid full, irrevocable, unconditional and absolute and except as set forth in this Article IX shall not be impaired, modified, discharged, released or limited by any occurrence or condition whatsoever, including, without limitation, (i) any compromise, settlement, release, waiver, renewal, extension, indulgence or modification of, or any change in, any of the obligations and liabilities of any other obligor with respect to the Securities contained in any of the Securities or this Indenture, (ii) any impairment, modification, release or limitation of the liability of the Company, any Guarantor or any of their respective estates in bankruptcy, or any remedy for the enforcement thereof, resulting from the operation of any present or future provision of any applicable Bankruptcy Law, or other statute or from the decision of any court, (iii) the assertion or exercise by the Company, any Guarantor or the Trustee of any rights or remedies under any of the Securities or this Indenture or its delay in or failure to assert or exercise any such rights or remedies, (iv) the assignment or the purported assignment of any property as security for any of the Securities, including all or any part of the rights of the Company or any Guarantor under this Indenture, (v) the extension of the time for payment by the Company or any Guarantor of any payments or other sums or any part thereof owing or payable under any of the terms and provisions of any of the Securities or this Indenture or of the time for performance by the Company or any Guarantor of any other obligations under or arising out of any such terms and provisions or the extension or the renewal of any thereof, (vi) the modification or amendment (whether material or otherwise) of any duty, agreement or obligation set forth in this Indenture of any other obligor with respect to the Securities, (vii) the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets, marshaling of assets and liabilities, receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors, reorganization, arrangement, composition or readjustment of, or other similar proceeding affecting, any of the Company or any Guarantor or any of its assets, or the disaffirmance of any of the Securities, the Guarantees or this Indenture in any such proceeding, (viii) the release or discharge of the Company or any Guarantor from the performance or observance of any agreement, covenant, term or condition contained in any of such instruments by operation of law, (ix) the unenforceability of any of the obligations of any of the other obligors under the Securities, the Guarantees or this Indenture, (x) any change in the name, business, capital structure, corporate existence, or ownership of the Company or any Guarantor, or (xi) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a legal or equitable discharge of, a surety or any Guarantor.

(d) Each Guarantor hereby (i) waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, notice of acceptance, filing of claims with a court in the event of the merger, amalgamation, insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company or any Guarantor, and all demands and notices whatsoever, (ii) acknowledges that any agreement, instrument or document evidencing the Guarantees may be transferred and that the benefit of its obligations hereunder shall extend to each holder of any agreement, instrument or document evidencing the Guarantees without notice to them and (iii) covenants that its Guarantees will not be discharged except by complete performance of the Guarantees or of the obligations guaranteed thereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that if at any time all or any part of any payment theretofore applied by any Person to the Guarantees is, or must be, rescinded or returned for any reason whatsoever, including, without limitation, the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of such Guarantor, the Guarantees shall, to the extent that such payment is or must be rescinded or returned, be deemed to have continued in existence notwithstanding such application, and the Guarantees shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, as though such application had not been made.

(e) Each Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of the Holders and the Trustee against the Company in respect of any amounts paid by such Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture; provided, however, that such Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce or to receive any payments arising out of, or based upon, such right of subrogation with respect to any of the Securities until all of the Securities and the Guarantees thereof shall have been paid in full or discharged.

(f) No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Trustee or the Holders, any right, power, privilege or remedy under this Article IX and the Guarantees shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any rights, power, privilege or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other rights, powers, privileges or remedies. The rights and remedies herein provided for are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided in law or equity. Nothing contained in this Article IX shall limit the right of the Trustee or the Holders to take any action to accelerate the Maturity of the Securities of either series pursuant to Article V or to pursue any rights or remedies hereunder or under applicable law.

SECTION 9.02. Execution and Delivery of Notation of Guarantees. To further evidence the Guarantees, each Guarantor hereby agrees that a notation of such Guarantees may be endorsed on each Security authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and that such notation shall be executed by either manual or facsimile signature of an Officer of such Guarantor.

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantees shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Security a notation of the Guarantees.

If an Officer of any Guarantor whose signature is on this Indenture or a Security no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates such Security or at any time thereafter, such Guarantor’s guarantee of such Security shall be valid nevertheless.

The delivery of any Security by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Guarantees set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors.

SECTION 9.03. Guarantors May Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms. A Guarantor may consolidate, merge or enter into a scheme of arrangement qualifying as an amalgamation with any Person or sell, lease, convey, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets to any Person, and the Capital Stock of a Guarantor may be sold or otherwise disposed of to another Person; provided, however, that in the case of the consolidation, merger or scheme or arrangement qualifying as an amalgamation or sale, lease, conveyance, transfer or disposal of all or substantially all of the assets of such Guarantor or the sale or other disposition of the Capital Stock of a Guarantor, if such other Person is not the Company or a Guarantor, such Guarantor’s obligations under its Guarantee must be expressly assumed by such other Person, except in connection with a transaction in which the Guarantee of such Guarantor would be released as provided in Section 9.05.

SECTION 9.04. Luxembourg: Guarantee Limitation. The guarantee granted by any Guarantor which is incorporated and established in the Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg (a "Luxembourg Guarantor") under this this Article IX shall be limited at any time to an aggregate amount not exceeding the higher of:

(a) 99% of such Luxembourg Guarantor's capitaux propres (as referred to in article 34 of the Luxembourg law dated 19 December 2002 on the commercial register and annual accounts, as amended (the "2002 Law"), and as implemented by the Grand-Ducal regulation dated 18 December 2015 setting out the form and the content of the presentation of the balance sheet and profit and loss account (the "Regulation")) determined as at the date on which a demand is made under the guarantee, increased by the amount of any Intra-Group Liabilities; and

(b) 99% of such Luxembourg Guarantor's capitaux propres (as referred to in article 34 of the 2002 Law) determined as at the date of this Agreement, increased by the amount of any Intra-Group Liabilities.The amount of the capitaux propres under this this Article IX shall be determined by the Trustee acting in its sole commercially reasonable discretion and shall be adjusted (by derogation to the rules contained in the 2002 Law and the Regulation) to take into account the fair value rather than book value of the assets of such Luxembourg Guarantor.

For the purpose of this Clause, "Intra-Group Liabilities" shall mean any amounts owed by such Luxembourg Guarantor to any other member of the group and that have not been financed (directly or indirectly) by any amounts raised in relation to the Securities. The above limitation shall not apply (a) in respect of any amounts due by a direct or indirect subsidiary of that Luxembourg Guarantor in relation to the Securities and (b) in respect of any amounts due by any person which is not a direct or indirect subsidiary of that Luxembourg Guarantor in relation to the Securities and which have been on-lent to or made available by whatever means, directly or indirectly, to that Luxembourg Guarantor or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries.

SECTION 9.05. Releases.

(a) The Guarantee of a Guarantor (other than, in the case of clause (iv) below, the Guarantee of Xxxxxx Delaware) will be automatically released with respect to the Securities of either series:

(i) upon the sale or other disposition (including by way of consolidation, merger or scheme or arrangement qualifying as an amalgamation) of a Guarantor, including the sale or disposition of Capital Stock of a Guarantor, following which such Guarantor is no longer a Subsidiary of the Company,

(ii) the sale or disposition of all or substantially all the assets (including by way of consolidation, merger or scheme or arrangement qualifying as an amalgamation) of a Guarantor,

(iii) if the Company exercises its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option with respect to such series of Securities or if the Company’s obligations under this Indenture governing such series of Securities are satisfied and discharged in accordance with Article VII with respect such series of Securities; or

(iv) if the Securities of such series are rated Investment Grade by at least two of the three Rating Agencies and no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture;

provided, however, that in the case of clauses (i) and (ii) above, such sale or other disposition is made to a Person other than the Company or an Affiliate of the Company and such sale or disposition is otherwise permitted by this Indenture.

(b) At the request of the Company and upon delivery of an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel, the Trustee shall execute and deliver an appropriate instrument evidencing the release of a Guarantor pursuant to this Section 9.05.

ARTICLE X
REDEMPTION

SECTION 10.01. Notices to Trustee. If the Company elects to redeem the Securities pursuant to the redemption provisions of Section 10.07, it shall furnish to the Trustee, at least five days before notice of such redemption is to be given pursuant to Section 10.03 (unless a shorter period is acceptable to the Trustee), an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the Redemption Date, the principal amount of such Securities to be redeemed, the redemption price (or the method of calculating the redemption price) and, if the redemption of such Securities is subject to any condition precedent, each such condition precedent.

SECTION 10.02. Selection of Securities to be Redeemed. If less than all of the Securities of either series are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select the Securities of such series to be redeemed on a pro rata basis (or, in the case of Securities represented by a Global Security, in accordance with the Applicable Procedures).

Securities and portions of them selected shall be in minimum amounts of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Securities called for redemption also apply to portions of Securities called for redemption.

SECTION 10.03. Notices to Holders.

(a) At least 20 days (or in the case of a redemption pursuant to Section 10.08, 10 days) but not more than 75 days before a Redemption Date, the Company shall give in conformity with Section 11.02 a notice of redemption to each Holder of the applicable series of Securities to be redeemed. The notice shall identify the Securities to be redeemed (including CUSIP, ISIN or similar numbers, if any) and shall state:

(i) the Redemption Date;

(ii) the redemption price (or the method of calculating the redemption price);

(iii) if any Security is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Security to be redeemed and that, after the Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Security, a new Security or Securities of the relevant series in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion will be issued;

(iv) the name and address of the Paying Agent;

(v) that Securities called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent at the address specified in such notice to collect the redemption price;

(vi) that unless the Company defaults in making the redemption payment, interest on Securities called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the Redemption Date and the only remaining right of the Holders is to receive payment of the redemption price upon surrender to the Paying Agent of the Securities;

(vii) the paragraph of the Securities and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Securities are being redeemed;

(viii) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Securities;

(ix) the aggregate principal amount of Securities being redeemed; and

(x) any condition precedent to such redemption.

If any of the Securities to be redeemed is in the form of a Global Security, then the Company shall modify such notice to the extent necessary to accord with the procedures of the Depositary applicable to redemptions.

(b) At the Company’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice required in Section 10.03(a) in the Company’s name; provided, however, that the Company shall deliver to the Trustee, at least 15 days prior to the requested delivery date (unless the Trustee consents in writing to a shorter period), 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 Section 10.03(a).

SECTION 10.04. Effect of Notices of Redemption. Notice of redemption may be given and any redemption of Securities may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including the consummation of a financing transaction or equity issuance, the proceeds of which are to be used to fund such redemption; provided that, if notice of redemption is given pursuant to Section 10.03, and such notice does not include a condition precedent to be satisfied in order for the Company to be obligated to redeem the Securities, the Securities called for redemption shall become due and payable on the Redemption Date at the redemption price. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent of Securities called for redemption, such Securities shall be paid out at the redemption price, plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the Redemption Date; provided, however, that if the Redemption Date is after the taking of a record of the Holders on a record date and on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, the accrued and unpaid interest shall be payable to the Person in whose name the redeemed Securities are registered on such record date. Failure to give notice or any defect in the notice to any Holder shall not affect the validity of the notice to any other Holder.

SECTION 10.05. Deposit of Redemption Price. At or prior to 11:00 a.m. New York City time on the Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent immediately available funds sufficient to pay the redemption price of all Securities to be redeemed on that date, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon up to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall return to the Company any money not required for that purpose less the expenses of the Trustee as provided herein.

If the Company complies with the preceding paragraph, interest on the Securities or portions thereof to be redeemed (whether or not such Securities are presented for payment) will cease to accrue on the applicable Redemption Date. If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender because of the failure of the Company to comply with the preceding paragraph, then interest will be paid on the unpaid principal, premium, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any, from the Redemption Date until such principal, premium, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any, are paid and, to the extent lawful, on any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Securities and in Section 3.01.

SECTION 10.06. Securities Redeemed in Part. Upon surrender of a Security that is redeemed in part, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder, at the expense of the Company, a new Security of the relevant series equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Security surrendered.

SECTION 10.07. Optional Redemption.

(a) The Securities of either series may be redeemed at any time at the option of the Company and on such terms and subject to such conditions (including conditions precedent) as are specified in such Securities. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood that the Company may redeem Securities of one series without redeeming the other series of Securities.

(b) Any redemption pursuant to this Section 10.07 shall be made, to the extent applicable, pursuant to the provisions of Sections 10.01 through 10.06.

SECTION 10.08. Tax Redemption.

(a) The Securities will be subject to redemption by the Company, in whole but not in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the outstanding principal amount of the Securities, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the applicable Redemption Date (including any Additional Amounts) at any time prior to their maturity if, due to a Change in Tax Law (as defined below):

(i) the Company or a Guarantor in accordance with the terms of the Securities or a Guarantee has, or would, become obligated to pay, on the next date on which any amount would be payable with respect to the Securities or a Guarantee, any Additional Amounts to the Holders of the Securities; and

(ii) such obligation cannot be avoided by such Guarantor or the Company taking reasonable measures available to it.

(b) In such case, the Company may redeem the Securities upon not less than 10 days nor more than 75 days’ notice provided, that, (i) no such notice of redemption shall be given earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be, would be obligated to pay any such Additional Amounts in respect of the Securities or applicable Guarantee and (ii) at the time such notice is given, such obligation to pay such Additional Amounts remains in effect. The Company’s right to redeem the Securities pursuant to this Section 10.08 shall continue as long as the Company or a Guarantor is obligated to pay such Additional Amounts, notwithstanding that the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be, shall have made payments of Additional Amounts. Prior to the giving of any such notice of redemption, the Company must deliver to the Trustee: (1) an Officer’s Certificate stating that the Company is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to the right of the Company so to redeem have occurred; and (2) an Opinion of Counsel or an independent accountant of recognized standing, selected by the Company or any Guarantor, as applicable, with respect to tax matters of the applicable Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction to the effect that the Company or such Guarantor has, or would, become obligated to pay such Additional Amounts as a result of such Change in Tax Law and the Trustee shall be entitled to accept such Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel as sufficient evidence of the satisfaction of the conditions precedent in which event they shall be conclusive and binding on the holders of the Securities. For the purposes of this Section 10.08, “Change in Tax Law” shall mean any changes in, or amendment to, any law of a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (including any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder and including, for this purpose, any treaty entered into by the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction) or any amendment to or change in the application or official interpretation (including judicial or administrative interpretation) of such law, which change or amendment becomes effective or, in the case of an official interpretation, is announced, on or after the date of this Indenture (or, if later, on or after the date on which such Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction became a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction).

Any redemption pursuant to this Section 10.08 shall be made, to the extent applicable, pursuant to the provisions of Sections 10.01 through 10.06.

The foregoing provisions will apply mutatis mutandis to any successor person, after such successor person becomes a party to this Indenture, with respect to a Change in Tax Law occurring after the time such successor person becomes a party to this Indenture.

REVERSE OF SECURITY

XXXXXX INDUSTRIES LTD.

7.25% SENIOR GUARANTEED NOTE DUE 2026

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of 7.25% Senior Guaranteed Notes due 2026 (the “Securities”) of Xxxxxx Industries Ltd., a Bermuda exempted company (the “Company”).

1. Interest. The Company promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Security at a rate of 7.25% per annum until Maturity. The Company will pay interest semi-annually on January 15 and July 15 of each year (each an “Interest Payment Date”), beginning July 15, 2020, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day. Interest on this Security will accrue from the most recent Interest Payment Date on which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from January 10, 2020; provided that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Security is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date. Further, to the extent lawful, the Company shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and interest (without regard to any applicable grace period), from time to time on demand at the rate then in effect on the Securities. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

2. Method of Payment. The Company will pay interest on this Security (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders of this Security at the close of business on the record date next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if this Security is canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date. The Holder must surrender this Security to a Paying Agent to collect payments of principal and premium, if any. The Company will pay the principal of and premium, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any, and interest on this Security in money of the United States of America that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. Payments in respect of the Securities represented by a Global Security (including principal, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and interest) will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by The Depository Trust Company. The Company will make all payments in respect of a certificated Security (including principal, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and interest) at the office or agency of the Paying Agent maintained for such purpose in The City of New York or, at its option, by mailing a check to the registered address of each Holder thereof; provided, however, that payments on a certificated Security will be made by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the payee with a bank in the United States if such Holder elects payment by wire transfer by giving written notice to the Trustee or the Paying Agent to such effect designating such account no later than 30 days immediately preceding the relevant due date for payment (or such other date as the Trustee may accept in its discretion).

3. Ranking and Guarantees. This Security is a senior unsecured obligation of the Company and is guaranteed pursuant to guarantees (the “Guarantees”) by the Guarantors to the extent set forth in the Indenture. The Guarantees are senior unsecured obligations of the Guarantors. References herein to the Indenture or the Securities shall be deemed also to refer to the Guarantees set forth in the Indenture except where the context otherwise requires.

Exhibit A-1-4

4. Optional Redemption; Purchases upon Change of Control Triggering Event.

(a) (a) On or after July 15, 2022, the Company may redeem the Securities, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at the redemption prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Securities, to, but excluding, the applicable Redemption Date, if redeemed during the periods indicated below:

Period	Percentage
July 15, 2022 to July 14, 2023		105.438	%
July 15, 2023 to July 14, 2024		103.625	%
July 15, 2024 to January 14, 2025		101.813	%
January 15, 2025 and thereafter		100.000	%

(b) At any time and from time to time prior to July 15, 2022, upon giving notice as provided in Section 10.03 of the Indenture, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities with an aggregate amount less than or equal to the cash proceeds less any underwriting spread paid in cash of one or more Equity Offerings, at a redemption price equal to 107.250% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to (but not including) the Redemption Date; provided, however, that, at least 50% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Securities (excluding any Additional Securities of such series) must remain outstanding immediately after each such redemption; provided, further, that such redemption shall occur within 180 days after the date on which any such Equity Offering is consummated.

(c) At any time prior to July 15, 2022, the Company may redeem the Securities, in whole at any time and in part from time to time, upon giving notice as provided in Section 10.03 of the Indenture, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed, plus the Applicable Premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.

“Applicable Premium” means, with respect to a Security, the greater of:

(1) 1.0% of the principal amount of such Security, and

(2) the excess, if any, of (a) the present value at such Redemption Date of (i) the redemption price of such Security at July 15, 2022 (such redemption prices being set forth in the table in the preceding paragraph (a)) plus (ii) all required interest payments, if any, due on such Security through July 15, 2022 (excluding accrued but unpaid interest to such Redemption Date), computed using a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate as of such Redemption Date plus 50 basis points, over (b) the then outstanding principal amount of such Security.

“Disqualified Stock” means any equity interest that, by its terms (or by the terms of any security into which it is convertible, or for which it is exchangeable, in each case, at the option of the holder of the equity interest), or upon the happening of any event, matures or is mandatorily redeemable, pursuant to a sinking fund obligation or otherwise, or redeemable at the option of the holder of the equity interest, in whole or in part, on or prior to the date that is 91 days after the date on which either series of the Securities mature. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, any equity interest that would constitute Disqualified Stock solely because the holders of the equity interest have the right to require the Company to repurchase such equity interest upon the occurrence of a change of control or an asset sale will not constitute Disqualified Stock.

Exhibit A-1-5

“Equity Offering” means any public or private sale of common shares or preferred shares (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Company, other than:

(1) public offerings of common shares registered on Form S-4 or Form S-8 or successor form thereto; and

(2) issuances to any Subsidiary of the Company.

“Treasury Rate” means as of any Redemption Date, the yield to maturity at the time of computation of U.S. Treasury securities with a constant maturity (as compiled and published in the most recent Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (or is obtainable from the Federal Reserve System’s Data Download Program as of the date of such H.15) that has become publicly available at least two Business Days prior to the Redemption Date (or, if such Statistical Release is no longer published, any publicly available source or similar market data)) most nearly equal to the period from the Redemption Date to July 15, 2022; provided, however, that if the period from the applicable Redemption Date to July 15, 2022 is not equal to the constant maturity of a U.S. 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 U.S. Treasury securities for which such yields are given, except that if the period from the redemption date to July 15, 2022 is less than one year, the weekly average yield on actually traded U.S. Treasury securities adjusted to a constant maturity of one year will be used.

The Company will (a) calculate the Treasury Rate on the second Business Day preceding the applicable Redemption Date and (b) prior to such Redemption Date file with the Trustee a notice setting forth the Applicable Premium and the Treasury Rate and showing the calculation of each in reasonable detail.

Notice of any redemption may be given and any redemption of Securities may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent.

(d) The Securities will be subject to redemption by the Company, in whole but not in part, at its discretion at a redemption price equal to 100% of the outstanding principal amount of the Securities, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the applicable Redemption Date under the circumstances set forth in Section 10.08 of the Indenture.

(e) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event with respect to the Securities, the Holder shall have the right to require the Company to purchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of this Security, pursuant to a Change of Control Offer made in accordance with Section 3.10 of the Indenture, at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount hereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest hereon up to, but excluding, the Change of Control Payment Date (subject to the right of the holder of record of this Security on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date as provided in Section 3.10 of the Indenture), except to the extent that the Company shall have exercised its right to redeem this Security pursuant to the preceding paragraphs (a), (b) or (c).

Exhibit A-1-6

(f) If Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities validly tender and do not withdraw their Securities in a Change of Control Offer and the Company, or any third party making a Change of Control Offer in lieu of the Company, purchases all of the Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Company shall have the right, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following such purchase pursuant to such Change of Control Offer, to redeem this Security and all other Securities that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, up to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (subject to the right of the holder of record of this Security on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date as provided in Section 10.04 of the Indenture).

5. Paying Agent and Registrar. Initially, Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A., the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

6. Indenture. The Company issued this Security under an Indenture dated as of January 10, 2020 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Indenture”) among the Company, the Guarantors and Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A. (the “Trustee”). The terms of this Security include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (15 U.S. Code Sections 77aaa-77bbbb). This Security and the Guarantees are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the Trust Indenture Act for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Security conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling (to the extent permitted by law). The Securities are unsecured obligations of the Company. The Company initially has issued $600,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Securities. The Company may issue Additional Securities of the same series as this Security under the Indenture, provided that no such Additional Securities may be issued at a price that would cause such Additional Securities to have “original issue discount” within the meaning of Section 1273 of the Code. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Security have the respective meanings given to such terms in the Indenture.

7. Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The Securities are issuable only in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of this Security may be registered and this Security may be exchanged only as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any transfer tax or similar governmental charge or other fee required by law and payable in connection therewith. The Registrar need not exchange or register the transfer of this Security during the period between a record date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date.

Exhibit A-1-7

8. Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Holder of a Security shall be treated as its owner for all purposes.

9. Amendments and Waivers. Subject to certain exceptions and limitations, the Indenture or this Security may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Securities, and compliance in a particular instance by the Company or the Guarantors with any provision of the Indenture with respect to the Securities may be waived (other than certain provisions, including any continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest on the Securities) by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding in accordance with the terms of Section 8.02 of the Indenture. Without the consent of any Holder, the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Security as provided in Section 8.01 of the Indenture.

The right of any Holder to participate in any consent required or sought pursuant to any provision of the Indenture (and the obligation of the Company to obtain any such consent otherwise required from such Holder) may be subject to the requirement that such Holder shall have been the Holder of record of this Security as of a record date fixed by the Company in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.

10. Defaults and Remedies. Events of Default with respect to this Security include: (i) default in the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, on any Security at its Maturity, and continuance of such default for a period of 10 days; or (ii) default in the payment of interest or Additional Amounts, if any, upon any of the Securities when they become due and payable, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days; or (iii) default in the performance or observance, or breach, of any covenant of the Company or the Guarantors in any Security or the Indenture (other than a covenant a default in whose performance or whose breach is elsewhere in Section 5.01 of the Indenture specifically dealt with), and continuance of such default or breach for a period of 90 days after there has been given, in conformity with Section 11.02 of the Indenture, to the Company and the Guarantors by the Trustee or to the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” under the Indenture; or (iv) certain events specified in the Indenture relating to the bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company or a Guarantor; or (v) the Guarantees cease to be in full force and effect or become unenforceable or invalid or are declared null and void (other than in accordance with the terms of such Guarantees) or any Guarantor denies or disaffirms its obligations under such Guarantees.

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default referred to in clause (iv) of the preceding paragraph) with respect to this Security occurs and is continuing, the Trustee by notice to the Company and the Guarantors, or by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Securities by written notice to the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee, may declare all of the then outstanding Securities to be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default referred to in such clause (iv) occurs, acceleration of all amounts payable on the Securities shall be automatic. The amount due and payable upon the acceleration of any Security is equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest to the date of payment. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or this Security except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee does require indemnity satisfactory to it before it enforces the Indenture or this Security. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Securities may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders notice of any continuing default with respect to the Securities (except a default in payment of principal, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interests. Each of the Company and the Guarantors must furnish an annual compliance certificate to the Trustee.

Exhibit A-1-8

11. Additional Amounts. If the Company or any Guarantor is required to withhold or deduct any amount for or on account of any Taxes for any payment made under or with respect to this Security, it will, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3.08 of the Indenture, pay any Additional Amounts.
