-72-

(a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing. Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent, or the holding by any Person of a Note, shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Issuer, if made in the manner provided in this Section 1.04.

(b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by the certificate of any notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Where such execution is by or on behalf of any legal entity other than an individual, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute proof of the authority of the Person executing the same. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner that the Trustee deems sufficient.

(d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action by the Holder of any Note shall bind every future Holder of the same Note and the Holder of every Note issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by the Trustee or the Issuer in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note.

(e) The Issuer may set a record date for purposes of determining the identity of Holders entitled to give any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or take any other act, or to vote or consent to any action by vote or consent authorized or permitted to be given or taken by Holders. Unless otherwise specified, if not set by the Issuer prior to the first solicitation of a Holder made by any Person in respect of any such action, or in the case of any such vote, prior to such vote, any such record date shall be the later of 10 days prior to the first solicitation of such consent or the date of the most recent list of Holders furnished to the Trustee prior to such solicitation.

(f) Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled to take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Note may do so with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Note or by one or more duly appointed agents, each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount. Any notice given or action taken by a Holder or its agents with regard to different parts of such principal amount pursuant to this Section 1.04(f) shall have the same effect as if given or taken by separate Holders of each such different part.

(g) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a Holder, including DTC, that is a Holder of a Global Note, may make, give or take, by a proxy or proxies duly appointed in writing, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to be made, given or taken by Holders, and any Person that is a Holder of a Global Note, including DTC, may provide its proxy or proxies to the beneficial owners of interests in any such Global Note, through such Depositary’s standing instructions and customary practices.

(h) The Issuer may fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Persons who are beneficial owners of interests in any Global Note held by DTC entitled under the procedures of such Depositary to

-73-

make, give or take, by a proxy or proxies duly appointed in writing, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to be made, given or taken by Holders. If such a record date is fixed, the Holders on such record date or their duly appointed proxy or proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled to make, give or take such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date. No such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action shall be valid or effective if made, given or taken more than 120 days after such record date.

Section 1.05. Timing of Payment. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the date on which any payment is to be made pursuant to this Indenture or the Notes is not a Business Day, the payment otherwise payable on such date shall be payable on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such scheduled date and (provided such payment is made on such succeeding Business Day) no interest shall accrue on the amount of such payment from and after such scheduled date to the time of such payment on such next succeeding Business Day and the amount of any such payment that is an interest payment will reflect accrual only through the original payment date and not through the next succeeding Business Day.

Section 1.06. Limited Condition Transactions. When calculating the availability under any basket or ratio under this Indenture or compliance with any provision of this Indenture in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction and any actions or transactions related thereto (including acquisitions, Investments, the incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock and the use of proceeds thereof, the incurrence of Liens, repayments, Restricted Payments and Asset Sales), in each case, at the option of the Issuer (the Issuer’s election to exercise such option, an “LCT Election”), the date of determination for availability under any such basket or ratio and whether any such action or transaction is permitted (or any requirement or condition therefor is complied with or satisfied (including as to the absence of any continuing Default or Event of Default)) under this Indenture shall be deemed to be the date (the “LCT Test Date”) either (a) the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into (or, if applicable, the date of delivery of an irrevocable notice, declaration of a Restricted Payment, the making of a Restricted Payment or similar event), or (b) solely in connection with an acquisition to which the United Kingdom City Code on Takeovers and Mergers (the “City Code”) applies, the date on which a “Rule 2.7 announcement” of a firm intention to make an offer or similar announcement or determination in another jurisdiction subject to laws similar to the City Code in respect of a target of a Limited Condition Transaction made in compliance with the City Code or similar laws or practices in other jurisdictions and, in each case, if, after giving pro forma effect to the Limited Condition Transaction and any actions or transactions related thereto (including acquisitions, Investments, the incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock and the use of proceeds thereof, the incurrence of Liens, repayments, Restricted Payments and Asset Sales) and any related pro forma adjustments (disregarding for the purposes of such pro forma calculation any borrowing under a revolving credit facility that is part of the Senior Secured Credit Facilities or any other revolving facility) and at the election of the Issuer, any other acquisition or similar Investment, Restricted Payment or Asset Sale that has not been consummated but with respect to which the Issuer has elected to test any applicable condition prior to the date of consummation in accordance with this paragraph, as if they had occurred at the beginning of the most recently completed four fiscal quarter period, the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries could have taken such actions or consummated such transactions on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with such ratio, test or basket (and any related requirements and conditions), such ratio, test or basket (and any related requirements and conditions) shall be deemed to have been complied with (or satisfied) for all purposes (in the case of Indebtedness, for example, whether such Indebtedness is committed, issued or incurred at the LCT Test Date or at any time thereafter); provided that (a) if financial statements for one or more subsequent fiscal quarters shall have become available, the Issuer may elect, in its sole discretion, to redetermine all such ratios, tests or baskets on the basis of such

-74-

financial statements, in which case, such date of redetermination shall thereafter be deemed to be the applicable LCT Test Date for purposes of such ratios, tests or baskets, (b) except as contemplated in the foregoing clause (a), compliance with such ratios, tests or baskets (and any related requirements and conditions) shall not be determined or tested at any time after the applicable LCT Test Date for such Limited Condition Transaction and any actions or transactions related thereto (including acquisitions, Investments, the incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock and the use of proceeds thereof, the incurrence of Liens, repayments, Restricted Payments and Asset Sales) and (c) Consolidated Interest Expense for purposes of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio will be calculated using an assumed interest rate based on the indicative interest margin contained in any financing commitment documentation with respect to such Indebtedness or, if no such indicative interest margin exists, as reasonably determined by the Issuer in good faith.

For the avoidance of doubt, if the Issuer has made an LCT Election, (1) if any of the ratios, tests or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date would at any time after the LCT Test Date have been exceeded or otherwise failed to have been complied with as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio, test or basket, including due to fluctuations in EBITDA or total assets of the Issuer or the Person subject to such Limited Condition Transaction, such baskets, tests or ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded or failed to have been complied with as a result of such fluctuations (provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary may rely upon any improvement in any such ratio, test or basket availability); (2) if any related requirements and conditions (including as to the absence of any continuing Default or Event of Default) for which compliance or satisfaction was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date would at any time after the LCT Test Date not have been complied with or satisfied (including due to the occurrence or continuation of a Default or an Event of Default), such requirements and conditions will not be deemed to have been failed to be complied with or satisfied (and such Default or Event of Default shall be deemed not to have occurred or be continuing); and (3) in calculating the availability under any ratio, test or basket in connection with any action or transaction unrelated to such Limited Condition Transaction following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the date that the definitive agreement or date for redemption, purchase or repayment specified in an irrevocable notice for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated, expires or passes, as applicable, without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such ratio, test or basket shall be determined or tested giving pro forma effect to such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of debt and the use of proceeds thereof (but without netting the cash proceeds thereof)) had been consummated.

Section 1.07. Certain Compliance Calculations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) is incurred or issued, any Lien is incurred or other transaction is undertaken in reliance on a ratio basket based on the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio or Consolidated Net Debt Ratio, such ratio(s) shall be calculated with respect to such incurrence, issuance or other transaction without giving effect to amounts being utilized under any other basket (other than a ratio basket based on the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio or Consolidated Net Debt Ratio) on the same date. Each item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock that is incurred or issued, each Lien incurred and each other transaction undertaken will be deemed to have been incurred, issued or taken first, to the extent available, pursuant to the relevant Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio or Consolidated Net Debt Ratio test.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) is incurred or issued, any Lien is incurred or other transaction is undertaken in reliance on a ratio basket based on the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio or Consolidated Net Debt Ratio, such ratio(s) shall be calculated

-75-

without regard to the incurrence of any Indebtedness under any revolving facility or letter of credit facility (1) immediately prior to or in connection therewith or (2) used to finance working capital needs of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (as reasonably determined by the Issuer).

Any calculation or measure that is determined with reference to the Issuer’s financial statements (including, without limitation, EBITDA, Consolidated Interest Expense, Consolidated Net Income, Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio, Consolidated Net Debt Ratio, Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Fixed Charges, and Section 4.07(a)(B)(1) hereof) may be determined with reference to the financial statements of any Parent Entity of the Issuer instead, so long as such Parent Entity does not hold any material assets other than, directly or indirectly, the Equity Interests of the Issuer (as determined in good faith by the Issuer).

ARTICLE 2

THE NOTES

Section 2.01. Form and Dating; Terms.

(a) General.

The Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rules or usage. Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. The Notes shall be issued in minimum denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

(b) Global Notes.

Notes issued in global form shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, including the Global Note Legend thereon and the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto. Notes issued in definitive form shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, but without the Global Note Legend thereon and without the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto. Each Global Note shall represent such of the outstanding Notes as shall be specified in the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto and each shall provide that it shall represent up to the aggregate principal amount of Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as applicable, to reflect exchanges and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee or the Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.06 hereof.

Notes offered and sold in reliance on Regulation S shall be issued initially in the form of the Regulation S Temporary Global Note, which shall be deposited on behalf of the purchasers of the Notes represented thereby with the Trustee, as Custodian for the Depositary and registered in the name of the Depositary or the nominee of the Depositary for the accounts of designated agents holding on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream, duly executed by the Issuers and authenticated by the Trustee as hereinafter provided.

-76-

Following the termination of the applicable Restricted Period, the Regulation S Temporary Global Note Legend shall be deemed removed from the Regulation S Temporary Global Note, following which temporary beneficial interests in the Regulation S Temporary Global Note shall automatically become beneficial interests in the Regulation S Permanent Global Note pursuant to the Applicable Procedures.

The aggregate principal amount of a Regulation S Temporary Global Note and a Regulation S Permanent Global Note may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Registrar and/or Paying Agent and the Depositary or their respective nominees, as the case may be, in connection with transfers of interest as hereinafter provided.

(d) Terms. The aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is unlimited.

The terms and provisions contained in the Notes shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture and the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, the Guarantors, the Agents and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, or a supplemental indenture to this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision of any Note conflicts with the express provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

The Notes shall be subject to repurchase by the Issuers pursuant to a Collateral Asset Sale Offer, a Collateral Advance Offer, an Asset Sale Offer or an Advance Offer, as the case may be, as provided in Section 4.10 hereof or a Change of Control Offer as provided in Section 4.14 hereof. The Notes shall not be redeemable, other than as provided in Article 3 hereof.

Subject to compliance with Section 4.09 and Section 4.12 hereof, the Issuers may issue Additional Notes from time to time ranking pari passu with the Initial Notes without notice to or consent of the Holders, and such Additional Notes shall be consolidated with and form a single class with the Initial Notes (except as otherwise provided for herein) and shall have the same terms as to status, waiver, amendment, redemption, offers to purchase or otherwise as the Initial Notes, except that interest may accrue on the Additional Notes from their date of issuance (or such other date specified by the Issuers); provided, however, that a separate CUSIP or ISIN will be issued for the Additional Notes, unless the Initial Notes and the Additional Notes are treated as fungible for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Any Additional Notes may be issued with the benefit of an indenture supplemental to this Indenture.

For the avoidance of any doubt, any Additional Notes that are issued in connection with a transaction in which an Officers Certificate and Opinion of Counsel was delivered shall be valid for all purposes and constitute Additional Notes hereunder, even if subsequently it is determined that such issuance was not in compliance with the covenants of this Indenture.

(e) Euroclear and Clearstream Procedures Applicable. The provisions of the “Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System” and “Terms and Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear” and the “General Terms and Conditions of Clearstream Banking” and “Customer Handbook” of Clearstream shall be applicable to transfers of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Global Notes that are held by Participants through Euroclear or Clearstream.

Section 2.02. Execution and Authentication. At least one Officer of each Issuer shall execute the Notes on behalf of the Issuer by manual, facsimile or electronic (including “.pdf”) signature.

-77-

If an Officer of the Issuer or Co-Issuer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note, the Note shall nevertheless be valid.

A Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose until authenticated substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto by the manual signature of the Trustee. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been duly authenticated and delivered under this Indenture.

On the Issue Date, the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Issuers’ Order (an “Authentication Order”), authenticate and deliver the Initial Notes in the aggregate principal amount or amounts specified in such Authentication Order. In addition, at any time, from time to time, the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate and deliver any Additional Notes for an aggregate principal amount specified in such Authentication Order for such Additional Notes issued or increased hereunder.

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent (an “Authentication Agent”) acceptable to the Issuers to authenticate Notes. An authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An Authentication Agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with Holders or an Affiliate of the Issuers.

Section 2.03. Registrars, Transfer Agents and Paying Agents. The Issuers shall maintain (i) one or more registrars with respect to the Notes where the Notes may be presented for registration (each, a “Registrar”), which shall be Citibank, N.A. as of the date of this Indenture, (ii) one or more offices or agencies where the Notes, as applicable, may be presented for transfer or for exchange (each, a “Transfer Agent”), which shall be Citibank, N.A., and (iii) one or more offices or agencies where the Notes, may be presented for payment (each, a “Paying Agent”), which shall be Citibank, N.A., as of the date of this Indenture. The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes (“Note Register”), and of their transfer and exchange and keep such Note Register in accordance with the rules and procedures of DTC or Euroclear and Clearstream, as applicable. The registered Holder of a Note will be treated as the owner of such Note for all purposes and only registered Holders shall have rights under this Indenture and the Notes. The Issuers may appoint one or more co-registrars, one or more co-transfer agents and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar, the term “Transfer Agent” includes any co-transfer agent and the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agents. The Issuers may change any Paying Agent, Transfer Agent or Registrar without prior notice to any Holder. The Issuers shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Issuers fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar, Transfer Agent or Paying Agent, the Trustee or an affiliate of the Trustee shall act as such. The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent, Transfer Agent or Registrar.

The Issuers initially appoint The Depository Trust Company, its nominees and successors (“DTC”) to act as Note Depositary with respect to the Global Notes.

The Issuers initially appoint the Trustee to act as the Registrar for the Notes and the Paying Agent and Transfer Agent for the Notes and to act as Custodian with respect to the Global Notes. In acting hereunder and in connection with the Notes, the Transfer Agents, the Paying Agents and the Registrars shall act solely as agents of the Issuers, and will not thereby assume any obligations towards or relationship of agency or trust for or with any Holder of the Notes.

If any Notes are listed on an exchange and the rules of such exchange so require, the Issuers will satisfy any requirement of such exchange as to paying agents, registrars and transfer agents and will

-78-

comply with any notice requirements required under such exchange in connection with any change of paying agent, registrar or transfer agent.

Section 2.04. Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. The Issuers shall require any Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that such Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of relevant Holders or the Trustee all money held by such Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium or Additional Amounts, if any, or interest on the Notes, and will notify the Trustee in writing of any default by the Issuers in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Issuers at any time may require the Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than Holdings or a Subsidiary thereof or the Trustee) shall have no further liability for the money. If any of Holdings or a Subsidiary thereof 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. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Issuers, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes.

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 all Holders. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuers shall furnish to the Trustee at least five 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.

Section 2.06. Transfer and Exchange.

(a) Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes. Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 2.06, a Global Note may be transferred, in whole and not in part, only to another nominee of the Depositary or to a successor thereto or a nominee of such successor thereto. A beneficial interest in a Global Note may not be exchanged for a Definitive Note unless, and, if applicable, subject to the limitation on issuance of Definitive Notes set forth in Section 2.06(d)(ii), (i) the Depositary (x) notifies the Issuers that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Note or (y) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and, in either case, a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Issuers within 120 days, (ii) the Issuers, at their option, notify the Trustee in writing that it elects to cause the issuance of Definitive Notes (although Regulation S Temporary Global Notes may not be exchanged for Definitive Notes prior to (A) the expiration of the applicable Restricted Period and (B) the receipt by the applicable Registrar of any certification of beneficial ownership required pursuant to Rule 903(b)(3)(ii)(B)), (iii) upon the request of a Holder if there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default, or (iv) the Trustee has received a written request by or on behalf of the Note Depositary to issue Definitive Notes. Upon the occurrence of any of the events described in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) above, Definitive Notes delivered in exchange for any Global Note or beneficial interests therein will be registered in the names, and issued in any approved denominations, requested by or on behalf of the Depositary (in accordance with its customary procedures). Global Notes also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in part, as provided in Sections 2.07 and 2.10 hereof. Every Note authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion thereof, pursuant to this Section 2.06 or Sections 2.07 or 2.10 hereof, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note, except for Definitive Notes issued subsequent to any of the events described in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) above and pursuant to Section 2.06(d) hereof. A Global Note may not be exchanged for another Note other than as provided in this Section 2.06(a); provided, however, beneficial interests in a Global Note may be transferred and exchanged as provided in Section 2.06(c), (d) or (g) hereof.

(b) [Reserved].

-79-

(c) Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in the Global Notes. The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in the Global Notes shall be effected through the applicable Depositary in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture and the Applicable Procedures. Beneficial interests in the Restricted Global Notes shall be subject to restrictions on transfer comparable to those set forth herein to the extent required by the Securities Act. Transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Notes also shall require compliance with either subparagraph (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) below, as applicable, as well as one or more of the other following subparagraphs, as applicable:

(i) Transfer of Beneficial Interests in the Same Global Note. Beneficial interests in any Restricted Global Note may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the same Restricted Global Note in accordance with the transfer restrictions set forth in the applicable Private Placement Legend; provided that prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period, transfers of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Temporary Global Note may not be made to a U.S. Person or for the account or benefit of a U.S. Person other than pursuant to Rule 144A. Beneficial interests in any Unrestricted Global Note may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note. No written orders or instructions shall be required to be delivered to the applicable Registrar to effect the transfers described in this Section 2.06(c)(i).

(ii) [Reserved].

The Trustee, the Registrars and the Transfer Agents shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Notes (including any transfers between or among the Depositary’s Participants or beneficial owners of interests in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation, as is expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the terms of this Indenture or the Notes and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

(xiii) The Issuers, the Trustee, the Registrars and the Transfer Agents reserve the right to require the delivery by any Holder or purchaser of a Note of such legal opinions, certifications or other evidence as may reasonably be required in order to determine that the proposed transfer of any Restricted Global Note or Restricted Definitive Note is being made in compliance with the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, or rules or regulations adopted by the SEC from time to time thereunder, and applicable state securities laws.

Section 2.07. Replacement Notes. If either (x) any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee, a Registrar or the Issuers, or (y) the Issuers and the Trustee receive evidence to their satisfaction of the ownership and destruction, loss or theft of any Note, then the Issuers shall issue and the Trustee, upon

-90-

receipt of an Authentication Order and satisfaction of any other requirements of the Trustee, shall authenticate a replacement Note. If required by the Trustee or the Issuers, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of both (i) the Trustee to protect the Trustee and (ii) the Issuers to protect the Issuers, the Trustee, any Agent and any Authentication Agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuers and the Trustee may charge the Holder for their expenses in replacing a Note.

Every replacement Note is a contractual obligation of the Issuers and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

Section 2.08. Outstanding Notes. The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those cancelled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.09 hereof, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer, Co-Issuer or a Guarantor or an Affiliate of the Issuer, Co-Issuer or a Guarantor holds the Note.

If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser (as defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code).

Notes in exchange for or in lieu of which other Notes have been authenticated and delivered pursuant to this Indenture shall not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes hereof.

If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01 hereof, such Note shall cease to be outstanding and interest thereon shall cease to accrue.

If a Paying Agent (other than the Issuers or a Guarantor or an Affiliate of the Issuers or a Guarantor) holds, on a Redemption Date or maturity date, money sufficient to pay Notes (or portions thereof) payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes (or portions thereof) shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding (including for accounting purposes) and shall cease to accrue interest on and after such date.

Section 2.09. Treasury Notes. In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Issuers or by any Affiliate of the Issuers shall be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Notes so owned which have been pledged in good faith shall not be disregarded if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right to deliver any such direction, waiver or consent with respect to such pledged Notes and that the pledgee is not the Issuers or a Guarantor or any Affiliate of the Issuers or a Guarantor.

Section 2.10. Temporary Notes. Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuers may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the Issuers consider appropriate for temporary Notes. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuers shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes.

Holders and beneficial holders, as the case may be, of temporary Notes shall be entitled to all of the benefits accorded to Holders, or beneficial holders, respectively, of Notes under this Indenture.

-91-

Section 2.11. Cancellation. The Issuers at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The applicable Registrar and the Paying Agent for such Series of Notes shall forward to the Trustee any such Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee or, at the direction of the Trustee, the applicable Registrar or the Paying Agent and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall dispose of such cancelled Notes in its customary manner (subject to the record retention requirements of the Exchange Act). Certification of the cancellation of all cancelled Notes shall be delivered to the Issuers upon their written request therefor. The Issuers may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that they have paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

Section 2.12. Defaulted Interest. If the Issuers default in a payment of interest on the Notes, it shall pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof. The Issuers shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Issuers shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such defaulted interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such defaulted interest as provided in this Section 2.12. The Issuers shall fix or cause to be fixed any such special record date and payment date; provided that no such special record date shall be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest. The Issuers shall promptly notify the Trustee of any such special record date. At least 15 days before any such special record date, the Issuers (or, upon the written request of the Issuers, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuers) shall send or cause to be sent to each Holder, with a copy to the Trustee, a notice at his or her address as it appears in the Note Register that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid.

Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.12 and for greater certainty, each Note delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Note.

Section 2.13. CUSIP, ISIN or Common Code Numbers. The Issuers in issuing the Notes may use CUSIP, ISIN, Common Code or other similar numbers (in each case, if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee shall use CUSIP, ISIN, Common Code or other similar numbers in notices of redemption or exchange 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 Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption or exchange and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption or exchange shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Issuers will as promptly as practicable notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the CUSIP, ISIN, Common Code or other similar numbers.

Notices of redemption or purchase may, at the Issuers’ discretion, be conditional. The Issuers may also provide in any redemption or purchase notice that payment of the redemption price and the performance of the Issuer’s obligations with respect to such redemption or purchase may be performed by another Person.

The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed or purchased and shall state:

At the Issuers’ request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption or purchase in the Issuers’ name and at its expense; provided that the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least two Business Days, in the case of Global Notes, or five Business Days, in the case of Definitive Notes, before notice of redemption or purchase is required to be delivered electronically, mailed or caused to be mailed to Holders pursuant to this Section 3.03 (unless a shorter notice shall be agreed to by the Trustee), 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 the preceding paragraph.

If the Notes are listed on an exchange, for so long as the Notes are so listed and the rules of such exchange so require, the Issuers shall notify the exchange of any such redemption or purchase and, if applicable, of the principal amount of any Notes outstanding following any partial redemption or purchase of Notes.

Section 3.04. Effect of Notice of Redemption or Purchase. A notice of redemption or purchase, if delivered electronically, mailed or caused to be mailed in a manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to deliver such notice or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Note designated for redemption or purchase in whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption or purchase of any other Note. Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase shall become due and payable on the Redemption Date, subject to satisfaction or waiver of any conditions specified in the notice. Subject to Section 3.05 hereof, on and after the Redemption Date, unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the redemption or purchase price, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes called for redemption or purchase.

If a Note is redeemed on or after an applicable Record Date but on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, then any accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such Record Date in accordance with Applicable Procedures. If any Note called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender for redemption because of the failure of the Issuer to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the Redemption Date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest accrued to the Redemption Date not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof.

Section 3.06. Notes Redeemed in Part. Upon surrender of a Definitive Note that is redeemed in part, the Issuer shall issue and, upon receipt of a Company Order, the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder, at the expense of the Issuer, a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Note surrendered representing the same indebtedness to the extent not redeemed; provided that each new Note will be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

Notice of any redemption or offer to purchase, whether in connection with an Equity Offering, Change of Control, Alternate Offer, Asset Sale Offer or other transaction or event or otherwise, may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be given prior to the completion or occurrence thereof, and any such redemption, offer to purchase or notice may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion or occurrence of the related Equity Offering, Change of Control, Asset Sale or other transaction or event, as the case may be. The Issuers may redeem the Notes pursuant to one or more of the relevant provisions in this Indenture, and a single notice of redemption may be delivered with respect to redemptions made pursuant to different provisions. Any such notice may provide that redemptions made pursuant to different provisions will have different Redemption Dates. In addition, if such redemption or offer to purchase is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall state that, in the Issuers’ discretion, the redemption or repurchase date may be delayed until such time (including more than 60 days after the date the notice of redemption or offer to purchase was sent) as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Issuers in their sole discretion), or such redemption or purchase may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied (or waived by the Issuers in their sole discretion) by the redemption or purchase date, or by the redemption or purchase date so delayed, or that such notice or offer may be rescinded at any time in the Issuers’ sole discretion if the Issuers determine that any or all of such conditions will not be satisfied or waived. For the avoidance of doubt, if any redemption or repurchase date shall be delayed pursuant to this Section 3.07 and the terms of the applicable notice of redemption or repurchase, such redemption or repurchase date as so delayed may occur at any time after the original redemption or repurchase date set forth in the applicable notice of redemption or repurchase and after the satisfaction of any applicable conditions precedent, including, without limitation, on a date that is less than 10 days after the original redemption or repurchase date or the redemption or repurchase date so delayed and more than 60 days after the date of the applicable notice of redemption or repurchase. In addition, the Issuers may provide in such notice or offer to purchase that payment of the redemption or purchase price and performance of the Issuers’ obligations with respect to such redemption or offer to purchase may be performed by another Person.

(i) The Issuer, the Co-Issuer, Holdings, their direct and indirect equityholders, including the Investors, any of their Subsidiaries and their respective Affiliates and members of management may acquire the Notes by means other than a redemption pursuant to this Article 3, whether by tender offer, open market purchases, negotiated transactions or otherwise.

(j) Neither the Trustee nor any Agent shall have any duty to calculate or verify the calculation of the Applicable Premium.

Collateral) (in the case of Collateral Excess Proceeds) or to any other Pari Passu Indebtedness (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Existing Notes) (in the case of Excess Proceeds) (on a pro rata basis, if applicable, with adjustments as necessary so that no Notes, other First Lien Obligations, Obligations secured by a Lien permitted under this Indenture on the Collateral disposed of (which Lien is not subordinate to the Lien of the Notes with respect to the Collateral) or Pari Passu Indebtedness, as the case may be, will be repurchased in part in an unauthorized denomination), or, if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes and other First Lien Obligations and Obligations secured by a Lien permitted under this Indenture on the Collateral disposed of (which Lien is not subordinate to the Lien of the Notes with respect to the Collateral) (in the case of Collateral Excess Proceeds), or all Notes and any other Pari Passu Indebtedness (in the case of Excess Proceeds), in each case, tendered in response to the Collateral Asset Sale Offer, the Collateral Advance Offer, the Asset Sale Offer or the Advance Offer, as the case may be.

(viii) that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes and, if applicable, other First Lien Obligations and Obligations secured by a Lien permitted under this Indenture on the Collateral disposed of (which Lien is not subordinate to the Lien of the Notes with respect to the Collateral) (in the case of Collateral Excess Proceeds) or any other Pari Passu Indebtedness (in the case of Excess Proceeds), in each case, surrendered by the holders thereof exceeds the Offer Amount (or, in the case of an Collateral Advance Offer or an Advance Offer, the Collateral Advance Portion or Advance Portion, respectively), the Issuer shall purchase such Notes (subject to applicable DTC or Euroclear or Clearstream, as applicable, procedures as to Global Notes) and such other First Lien Obligations, other Obligations or Pari Passu Indebtedness, as the case may be, on a pro rata basis based on the aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, if applicable) of the Notes or such other First Lien Obligations, other Obligations or Pari Passu Indebtedness, as the case may be, tendered (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Issuer so that only Notes in integral multiples of $1,000 are purchased); and

(ix) that Holders whose certificated Notes were purchased only in part shall be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer) representing the same indebtedness to the extent not repurchased; provided that new Notes will only be issued in denominations of $2,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

(e) On or before the Purchase Date, the Issuer shall, to the extent lawful, (1) accept for payment, on a pro rata basis as described in clause (d)(viii) of this Section 3.08, the Offer Amount of Notes or portions thereof validly tendered pursuant to the Collateral Asset Sale Offer, the Collateral Advance Offer, the Asset Sale Offer or the Advance Offer, as the case may be, or if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered and (2) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted, together with an Officer’s Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions thereof so tendered.

(f) The Issuer, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, shall promptly mail or deliver to each tendering Holder an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes properly tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Issuer for purchase, and the Issuer shall promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate and mail or deliver (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) such new Note to such Holder (it being understood that, notwithstanding

-99-

anything in this Indenture to the contrary, only an Officer’s Certificate and not an Opinion of Counsel is required for the Trustee to authenticate and mail or deliver such new Note) in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered representing the same indebtedness to the extent not repurchased; provided, that each such new Note shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Issuer to the Holder thereof. The Issuer shall announce the results of the Collateral Asset Sale Offer, the Collateral Advance Offer, the Asset Sale Offer or the Advance Offer, as the case may be, on or as soon as practicable after the Purchase Date on the website or online data system maintain pursuant to Section 4.03(a) hereof.

(g) Prior to noon (New York City time) on the Purchase Date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the purchase price of and accrued and unpaid interest on all Notes to be purchased on that Purchase Date; provided, however, that to the extent any such funds are received by the Paying Agent from the Issuer after such time on such due date, such funds will be distributed to such Persons within one Business Day of receipt thereof. The Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Issuer any money deposited with the Paying Agent by the Issuer in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the purchase price of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, all Notes to be redeemed.

Other than as specifically provided in this Section 3.08 or Section 4.10 hereof, any purchase pursuant to this Section 3.08 shall be made pursuant to the applicable provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06 hereof, and references therein to “redeem,” “redemption,” “Redemption Date” and similar words shall be deemed to refer to “purchase,” “repurchase,” “Purchase Date” and similar words, as applicable.

Section 3.09. Mandatory Redemption. The Issuers shall not be required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payment with respect to the Notes.

Section 3.10. Redemption for Taxation Reasons. The Issuers may redeem the Notes in whole, but not in part, at any time upon giving not less than 10 days’ prior notice to the Holders of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 100.0% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date fixed for redemption (a “Tax Redemption Date”) (subject to the rights of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date) and all Additional Amounts, if any, then due and which shall become due on the Tax Redemption Date as a result of the redemption or otherwise, if the Issuer determines in good faith that, as a result of:

(a) any change in, or amendment to, the law or treaties (or any regulations or rulings, if applicable, promulgated thereunder) of a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction; or

(b) any amendment to, or change in an official written application, administration or interpretation of such laws, treaties, regulations or rulings, if applicable, (including a holding, judgment or order by a court of competent jurisdiction or a change in published practice or revenue guidance) (each of the foregoing in clauses (a) and (b), a “Change in Tax Law”), a Payor is, or on the next interest payment date in respect of the Notes would be, required to pay Additional Amounts (other than Additional Amounts payable on the date of the Offering Memorandum, if payment were made by any Guarantor) with respect to the Notes, and such obligation cannot be avoided by taking reasonable measures available to the Payor (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the appointment of a new Paying Agent where this would be reasonable, but not including assignment of the obligation to make payment with respect to the Notes). Such Change in Tax Law must (i) not have been publicly announced before the Issue Date and (ii) become effective on or after the Issue Date (or, in the case of clauses (i) or (ii), if the applicable Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction became a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction on a date after the Issue Date, before or after such later date (as applicable)).

-100-

The foregoing provisions shall apply (a) to a Guarantor only if neither the Issuer nor any other Guarantor is able to make payments on the Notes without the payment of such Additional Amounts and (b) mutatis mutandis to any successor Person, after such successor Person becomes a party to this Indenture, with respect to a change or amendments announced after the time such successor Person becomes a party to this Indenture.

Notice of redemption for taxation reasons shall be delivered in accordance with the procedures described in Section 3.03. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such notice of redemption shall be given earlier than 60 days prior to the earliest date on which the Payor would be obligated to make such payment of Additional Amounts. Prior to the delivery of any notice of redemption of any Notes pursuant to the foregoing, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee (a) an Officer’s Certificate stating that it is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to its right so to redeem have been satisfied and (b) an opinion of an independent tax counsel of recognized standing qualified under the laws of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction to the effect that the Payor has been or shall become obligated to pay Additional Amounts as a result of a Change in Tax Law. The Trustee shall accept and shall be entitled to rely on such Officer’s Certificate and opinion as sufficient evidence of the satisfaction of the conditions precedent described above, without further inquiry, in which event it shall be conclusive and binding on the Holders of the Notes.

Section 3.11. Payment of Additional Amounts on the Notes. All payments made by or on behalf of the Issuers or any Guarantor (including, in each case, any successor entity) (each, a “Payor”) under or with respect to the Notes or with respect to any Guarantee thereof, as applicable, shall be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any Taxes unless the withholding or deduction of such Taxes is then required by law. If any deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any Taxes imposed or levied by or on behalf of:

(1) United States or Canada or any political subdivision or Governmental Authority thereof or therein having the power to tax;

(2) any jurisdiction from or through which payment on any such Note or Guarantee thereof is made, or any political subdivision or Governmental Authority thereof or therein having the power to tax; or

(3) any other jurisdiction in which any Payor is organized, engaged in business for tax purposes, or otherwise considered to be a resident for tax purposes, or any political subdivision or Governmental Authority thereof or therein having the power to tax (each of clause (1), (2) and (3), a “Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction”),

shall at any time be required by law to be made from any payments made by or on behalf of the Payor or the Paying Agent with respect to any such Note or Guarantee thereof, including, without limitation, payments of principal, redemption or purchase price, interest or premium, if any, the Payor shall pay (together with such payments) such additional amounts (the “Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary in order that the net amounts received in respect of such payments, after such withholding or deduction (including any such withholding or deduction from such Additional Amounts), shall not be less than the amounts which would have been received in respect of such payments on any such Note or Guarantee thereof in the absence of such withholding or deduction; provided, however, that no such Additional Amounts shall be payable for or on account of:

(1) any Taxes that would not have been so imposed but for the existence of any present or former connection between the relevant Holder or beneficial owner of the Note (or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member, partner or shareholder of, or possessor of power over the

-101-

relevant Holder or beneficial owner, if the relevant Holder or beneficial owner is an estate, nominee, trust, partnership, limited liability company or corporation) and the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (including, without limitation, being resident for tax purposes, or being a citizen or resident or national of, or carrying on a business or maintaining a permanent establishment in, or being physically present in, the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction) but excluding, in each case, any connection arising solely from the acquisition, ownership or disposition of such Note or the receipt of any payment or the exercise or enforcement of rights under such Note, this Indenture or a Guarantee of such Note;

(2) any Tax that is imposed or withheld by reason of the failure by the Holder or the beneficial owner of the Note to provide an applicable Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 (with any required attachments) or W-9 or to comply with a written request of the Payor addressed to the Holder, after reasonable notice (at least 60 days before any such withholding or deduction would be made), to provide other certification, information, documents or other evidence concerning the nationality, residence or identity of the Holder or such beneficial owner or to make any declaration or similar claim or satisfy any other reporting requirement relating to such matters, which is required by a statute, treaty, regulation or administrative practice of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction as a precondition to exemption from all or part of such Tax but, only to the extent the Holder or beneficial owner is legally entitled to provide such certification or documentation;

(3) any Taxes, to the extent that such Taxes were imposed as a result of the presentation of the Note for payment (where presentation is required) more than 30 days after the relevant payment is first made available for payment to the Holder (except to the extent that the Holder would have been entitled to Additional Amounts had the Note been presented on the last day of such 30-day period);

(4) any Taxes that are payable otherwise than by deduction or withholding from a payment on or with respect to the Notes or any Guarantee thereof;

(5) any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer, capital gains, personal property or similar Taxes;

(6) any Taxes imposed in connection with a Note presented for payment by or on behalf of a Holder or beneficial owner who would have been able to avoid such Tax by presenting the Note to, or otherwise accepting payment from, another paying agent;

(7) any Taxes imposed pursuant to FATCA;

(8) any Taxes imposed as a result of the beneficial owner being or having been (i) a “10-percent shareholder” of the Issuer as defined in Section 871(h)(3) of the Code or any successor provision or (ii) a controlled foreign corporation that is related to the Issuer within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Code or any successor provision;

(9) any Taxes imposed as a result of the Holder or beneficial owner being a bank receiving payments on an extension of credit made pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary course of its trade or business, as described in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code or any successor provision;

(10) any Taxes imposed by reason of the Holder’s or beneficial owner’s past or present status as a passive foreign investment company, a controlled foreign corporation, a foreign tax-exempt

-102-

organization or a personal holding company with respect to the United States or as a corporation that accumulates earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax;

(11) any Canadian federal or provincial Taxes imposed with respect to any payments under or with respect to the Notes which is subject to such Taxes by reason of: (i) such Holder or beneficial owner, or any other Person entitled to payments on the Notes, not dealing at arm’s length (within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada)) with the Issuers or the Guarantors, (ii) such Holder or beneficial owner being a “specified shareholder” (within the meaning of subsection 18(5) of the Income Tax Act (Canada)) of the Issuers or the Guarantors (including, in the case of an Issuer or Guarantor that is a partnership, of any corporation that owns a membership interest in such Issuer or Guarantor directly or indirectly through one or more partnerships), or (iii) such Holder or beneficial owner being a “specified entity” (as defined in proposals to amend the Income Tax Act (Canada) released on April 29, 2022 with respect to “hybrid mismatch arrangements”) in respect of the Issuers or the Guarantors, in each case, otherwise than where the non-arm’s length relationship arises or where such beneficial owner or such other person is a “specified shareholder” or “specified entity” solely as a result of the acquisition, ownership or disposition of the Notes or the receipt of any payment or exercise or enforcement of rights under the Notes, this Indenture or any Guarantee of the Notes; or

(12) any combination of the items (1) through (11) above.

In addition, no Additional Amounts shall be paid with respect to a Holder who is a fiduciary or a partnership or limited liability company or any person other than the sole beneficial owner of the Notes, to the extent that the beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary, the member of such partnership or limited liability company or such beneficial owner would not have been entitled to Additional Amounts had such beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner held such Notes directly.

The withholding agent shall (i) make any required withholding or deduction and (ii) remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing authority in the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction in accordance with applicable law. The Payor shall use all reasonable efforts to obtain certified copies of tax receipts evidencing the payment of any Taxes so deducted or withheld from each Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction imposing such Taxes and shall provide such certified copies, or if, notwithstanding the Payor’s reasonable efforts to obtain such tax receipts, such tax receipts are not available, other reasonable evidence of such payments as soon as reasonably practicable to the Trustee. Such copies or other evidence shall be made available to the Holders upon reasonable request and shall be made available at the offices of the Paying Agent.

If any Payor is obligated to pay Additional Amounts under or with respect to any payment made on any Notes or Guarantee thereof, at least 30 days prior to the date of such payment, the Payor shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating the fact that Additional Amounts shall be payable and the amount estimated to be so payable (unless such obligation to pay Additional Amounts arises less than 45 days prior to the relevant payment date, in which case the Payor may deliver such Officer’s Certificate as promptly as practicable after the date that is 30 days prior to the payment date). The Trustee shall be entitled to rely solely, without further inquiry, on such Officer’s Certificate as conclusive proof that such payments are necessary.

Wherever in this Indenture, the Notes or related Guarantees there is mentioned, in any context, with respect to the Notes:

(1) the payment of principal;

-103-

(2) purchase prices in connection with a purchase of Notes;

(3) interest; or

(4) any other amount payable on or with respect to any Guarantee of a Note,

such reference shall be deemed to include payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof.

The Payor shall pay and indemnify the Holders and beneficial owners of the Notes for any present or future stamp, transfer, issue, registration, court or documentary taxes, or any other excise, property or similar taxes or similar charges or levies (including any related interest or penalties with respect thereto) that arise in a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction from the execution, delivery, enforcement or registration of, or receipt of payments with respect to, any Note, any Guarantee of a Note, this Indenture, or any other document or instrument in relation thereto (other than in each case, in connection with a transfer of the Note after the Issue Date and limited, solely to the extent of such taxes or similar charges or levies that arise from the receipt of any payments of principal or interest on the Note, to any such taxes or similar charges or levies that are not excluded under clauses (1) through (3) and (5) through (11) above).

The foregoing obligations shall survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of this Indenture and shall apply mutatis mutandis to any jurisdiction in which any successor to a Payor is organized, engaged in business for tax purposes or otherwise resident for tax purposes, or any jurisdiction from or through which any payment under, or with respect to the Notes or Guarantees thereof is made by or on behalf of such Payor, or, in each case, any political subdivision or taxing authority or agency thereof or therein.

All such annual reports for periods ending after the Issue Date shall be furnished within 120 days after the end of the fiscal year (which fiscal year ends on September 30of each calendar year as of the date of this Indenture, subject to clause (J) of the immediately preceding paragraph) to which they relate; all such quarterly reports for periods ending after the Issue Date shall be furnished within 60 days after the end of the fiscal quarter to which they relate; and all such current reports for triggering events occurring after the Issue Date shall be furnished within 15 days of the due date specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations for reporting companies under the Exchange Act.

If the Issuer or any Parent Entity does not file reports containing such information with the SEC, then the Issuer shall make available such information and such reports to any Holder of the Notes and to any beneficial owner of the Notes, in each case by posting such information on a password-protected website or online data system which shall require a confidentiality acknowledgment, and shall make such information readily available to any bona fide prospective investor, any securities analyst (to the extent providing analysis of investment in the Notes) or any market maker in the Notes who agrees to treat such information as confidential; provided that the Issuer shall post such information thereon and make readily available any password or other login information to any such bona fide prospective investor, securities analyst or market maker; provided, however, that the Issuer may deny access to any competitively sensitive information otherwise to be provided pursuant to this covenant to any such Holder, beneficial owner, bona fide prospective investor, securities analyst or market maker to the extent that the Issuer determines in good faith that the provision of such information to such Person would be competitively harmful to the Issuer and its Subsidiaries; and provided, further, that such Holders, beneficial owners, bona fide prospective investors, securities analysts and market makers shall agree to (A) treat all such reports (and information contained therein) as confidential, (B) not to use such reports (and the information contained therein) for any purpose other than their investment or potential investment in the Notes and (C) not publicly disclose any such reports (and the information contained therein).

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer may satisfy its obligations under this Section 4.03 with respect to financial information relating to the Issuer by furnishing financial information relating to any Parent Entity; provided that if such Parent Entity is not a Guarantor then the same is accompanied by selected financial metrics that show the differences (in the Issuer’s sole discretion) between the information relating to such Parent Entity, on the one hand, and the information relating to the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries on a stand-alone basis, on the other hand.

(f) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Issuer will not be deemed to have failed to comply with any of its obligations hereunder for purposes of clause (iii) of Section 6.01(a) hereof until 180 days after the receipt of the written notice delivered thereunder.

-107-

Defaults of which he or she may have knowledge and what action the Issuers are taking or propose to take with respect thereto).

(b) When any Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture, or if the Trustee or the holder of any other evidence of Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Subsidiary gives any notice or takes any other action with respect to a claimed Default, the Issuer shall promptly (which shall be no more than 20 Business Days after becoming aware of such Default) deliver to the Trustee by registered or certified mail or by facsimile or electronic transmission an Officer’s Certificate specifying such Default (unless such Default has been cured or waived within such 20-Business Day time period).

The Issuers shall pay or discharge, and shall cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to pay or discharge, prior to delinquency, all material taxes, lawful assessments, and governmental levies except such as are contested in good faith and by appropriate actions or where the failure to effect such payment or discharge is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders.

Section 4.06. Stay, Extension and Usury Laws. The Issuers and each of the Guarantors covenant (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) that they shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture and the Notes; and the Issuers and each of the Guarantors (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waive all benefit or advantage of any such law, and (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) covenant that they shall not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law has been enacted.

Section 4.07. Limitation on Restricted Payments.

(a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly:

(i) declare or pay any dividend or make any payment or distribution on account of the Issuer’s, or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’, Equity Interests (in each case, solely to a holder of Equity Interests in such Person’s capacity as a holder of such Equity Interests), including any dividend, payment or distribution payable in connection with any merger, amalgamation or consolidation other than:

(A) dividends, payments and distributions by the Issuer payable solely in Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Issuer or in options, warrants or other rights to purchase such Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock); or

(B) dividends, payments and distributions by a Restricted Subsidiary so long as, in the case of any dividend, payment or distribution payable on or in respect of any class or series of securities issued by a Restricted Subsidiary other than a Wholly Owned Subsidiary, the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary receives at least its pro rata share of such dividend, payment or distribution in accordance with its Equity Interests in such class or series of securities;

(ii) the Issuer shall be entitled to divide and classify an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock in more than one of the types of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock described in Section 4.09(a) and Section 4.09(b) hereof;

(iii) guarantees of, or obligations in respect of letters of credit, bankers’ acceptances or other similar instruments relating to, or Liens securing, Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock that is otherwise included in the determination of a particular amount of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock shall not be included;

(iv) if obligations in respect of letters of credit, bankers’ acceptances or other similar instruments are incurred pursuant to any Credit Facility and are being treated as incurred pursuant to any clause of Section 4.09(b) or Section 4.09(a) hereof and the letters of credit, bankers’ acceptances or other similar instruments relate to other Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, then such other Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock shall not be included;

(v) the principal amount of any Disqualified Stock of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary, or Preferred Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary, will be equal to the greater of the maximum mandatory redemption or repurchase price (not including, in either case, any redemption or repurchase premium) or the liquidation preference thereof; and

(vi) for purposes of calculating the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, the Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio or the Consolidated Net Debt Ratio, as applicable, in connection with the incurrence of any Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.09(a) or Section 4.09(b) hereof or the creation or incurrence or any Lien pursuant to the definition of “Permitted Liens,” the Issuer may elect, at its option, to treat all or any portion of the committed amount of any Indebtedness (and the issuance and creation of letters of credit and bankers’ acceptances thereunder) which is to be incurred (or any commitment in respect thereof) or secured by such Xxxx, as the case may be (any such committed amount elected until revoked as described below, the “Reserved Indebtedness Amount”), as being incurred as of such election date, and, if such Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio or Consolidated Net Debt Ratio, as applicable, is satisfied with respect thereto on such election date, any subsequent borrowing or reborrowing thereunder (and the issuance and creation of letters of credit and bankers’ acceptances thereunder) will be deemed to be permitted under this Section 4.09 or the definition of “Permitted Liens,” as applicable, whether or not the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, the Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio or the Consolidated Net Debt Ratio, as applicable, at the actual time of any subsequent borrowing or reborrowing (or issuance or creation of letters of credit or bankers’ acceptances thereunder) is met; provided that for purposes of subsequent calculations of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, the Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio or the Consolidated Net Debt Ratio, as applicable, the Reserved Indebtedness Amount shall be deemed to be outstanding, whether or not such amount is actually outstanding, for so long as such commitments are outstanding or until the Issuer revokes an election of a Reserved Indebtedness Amount.

-128-

Accrual of interest or dividends, the accretion of accreted value, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount and the payment of interest or dividends in the form of additional Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, as the case may be, of the same class shall not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock for purposes of this Section 4.09. If Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock originally incurred in reliance upon a percentage of LTM EBITDA under this Section 4.09 is being refinanced and such refinancing would cause the maximum amount of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock thereunder to be exceeded at such time, then such refinancing will nevertheless be permitted thereunder and such additional Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock will be deemed to have been incurred under the applicable provision so long as the principal amount or liquidation preference of such refinancing Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock does not exceed the principal amount or liquidation preference of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock being refinanced plus amounts permitted by the next sentence. Any Refinancing Indebtedness and any Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock permitted to be incurred under this Indenture to refinance Indebtedness incurred pursuant to clauses (i), (xii)(B), (xxiii), (xxv), (xxix), (xxx) and (xxxi) of Section 4.09(b) hereof shall be deemed to include additional Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock incurred to pay accrued but unpaid interest or dividends, premiums (including tender premiums), defeasance costs, underwriting or initial purchaser discounts, fees, costs and expenses (including original issue discount, upfront fees or similar fees) in connection with such refinancing.

For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, the U.S. Dollar Equivalent principal amount or liquidation preference of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock was incurred, in the case of a term obligation, or upon execution of the definitive credit agreement, in the case of revolving credit debt; provided that if such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount or liquidation preference of such refinancing Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock does not exceed (A) the principal amount or liquidation preference of such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock being refinanced plus (B) the aggregate amount of accrued but unpaid interest, fees, underwriting or initial purchaser discounts, premiums (including tender premiums) and other costs and expenses (including original issue discount, upfront fees or similar fees) incurred in connection with such refinancing.

The principal amount or liquidation preference of any Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such respective Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

This Indenture shall not treat (1) unsecured Indebtedness as subordinated or junior to Secured Indebtedness merely because it is unsecured or (2) Indebtedness as subordinated or junior to any other Indebtedness merely because it has a junior priority with respect to the same collateral or because it is secured by different collateral or issued or guaranteed by other obligors.

Section 4.10. Asset Sales.

-129-

(a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale, unless:

(i) the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration (including, but not limited to, by way of relief from, or by any other Person assuming responsibility for, any liabilities, contingent or otherwise, in connection with, such Asset Sale) at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Issuer at the time of contractually agreeing to such Asset Sale) of the assets sold or otherwise disposed of; and

(ii) except in the case of a Permitted Asset Swap, at least 75% of the consideration for such Asset Sale, together with all other Asset Sales since the Issue Date (on a cumulative basis), received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of Cash Equivalents; provided that the amount of:

(A) the greater of the principal amount and the carrying value of any liabilities (as reflected on the Issuer’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent consolidated balance sheet or in the footnotes thereto or, if incurred or increased subsequent to the date of such balance sheet, such liabilities that would have been reflected on the Issuer’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s consolidated balance sheet or in the footnotes thereto if such incurrence or increase had taken place on or prior to the date of such balance sheet, as determined by the Issuer) of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, other than liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes, that are (i) assumed by the transferee of any such assets (or a third party in connection with such transfer) pursuant to a written agreement which releases or indemnifies the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from such liabilities or (ii) otherwise cancelled or terminated in connection with the transaction;

(B) any securities, notes or other obligations or assets received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted or reasonably expected by the Issuer acting in good faith to be converted by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary into Cash Equivalents (to the extent of the Cash Equivalents received or expected to be received) or by their terms are required to be satisfied for Cash Equivalents within 180 days following the closing of such Asset Sale; and

(C) any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate fair market value, taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (C) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed the greater of (i) $600.0 million and (ii) 37.5% of LTM EBITDA at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-cash Consideration (or, at the Issuer’s option, at the time of contractually agreeing to such Asset Sale), with the fair market value of each item of Designated Non-cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value, shall be deemed to be Cash Equivalents for purposes of this provision and for no other purpose.

(b) Within 450 days after the later of (x) the date of any Asset Sale and (y) the receipt of any Net Proceeds of such Asset Sale, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, at its option, may apply an amount up to the Asset Sale Prepayment Percentage of the Net Proceeds from such Asset Sale:

(i) (A) to the extent such Net Proceeds are from an Asset Sale of Collateral, to reduce Indebtedness (through a prepayment, repayment or purchase, as applicable) as follows:

(1) Obligations under the Notes;

(2) First Lien Obligations (other than the Notes), and, in the case of revolving obligations (other than Obligations in respect of any asset-based credit facility), to correspondingly reduce commitments with

-130-

respect thereto; provided that if the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary shall so reduce any First Lien Obligations other than the Notes, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary will either (a) reduce Obligations under the Notes on a pro rata basis with such other First Lien Obligations by, at its option, (x) redeeming Notes as provided under Section 3.07 hereof or (y) purchasing Notes through open-market purchases or in privately negotiated transactions at market prices (which may be below par), or (b) make an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for a Collateral Asset Sale Offer) to all Holders to purchase their Notes on a ratable basis with such other First Lien Obligations for no less than 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the amount of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, thereon up to the principal amount of Notes to be repurchased;

(3) ABL Obligations if such Net Proceeds are from an Asset Sale of ABL Priority Collateral (including indirect Asset Sales of ABL Priority Collateral due to the sale of the Capital Stock of a Person); or

(4) Obligations of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not the Co-Issuer or a Guarantor, other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, and, in the case of revolving obligations (other than Obligations in respect of any asset-based credit facility), to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto;

(B) to the extent such Net Proceeds are from an Asset Sale that does not constitute Collateral, to reduce Indebtedness (through a prepayment, repayment or purchase, as applicable) as follows:

(1) Obligations under a Credit Facility to the extent such Obligations were incurred under clause (i) of Section 4.09(b) hereof and, in the case of revolving obligations (other than Obligations in respect of any asset-based credit facility), to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto;

(2) Obligations under Secured Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary), and, in the case of revolving obligations (other than Obligations in respect of any asset-based credit facility), to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto;

(3) Obligations under any Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (and, in the case of Senior Indebtedness that consists of revolving obligations (other than Obligations in respect of any asset-based credit facility), to correspondingly reduce any outstanding commitments with respect thereto); provided that if the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary shall so reduce any Senior Indebtedness, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary will either (a) reduce Obligations under the Notes on a pro rata basis by, at its option, (x) redeeming Notes as provided under Section 3.07 hereof or (y) purchasing Notes through open-market purchases or in privately negotiated transactions at market prices (which may be below par), or (b) make an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth in Sections 3.08 and 4.10(c) hereof) to all Holders to purchase their Notes on a ratable basis with such other Senior Indebtedness for no less than 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the amount of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, thereon up to the principal amount of Notes to be repurchased;

(5) to the extent such Net Proceeds are from an Asset Sale of property or assets of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not the Co-Issuer or a Guarantor, Obligations of the Co-Issuer or a Guarantor other than Subordinated Indebtedness and other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary,

-131-

and, in the case of revolving obligations (other than Obligations in respect of any asset-based credit facility), to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto; or

(ii) to make (A) an Investment in any one or more businesses, so long as such Investment in any business is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock and results in the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, owning an amount of the Capital Stock of such business such that it constitutes or continues to constitute a Restricted Subsidiary, (B) capital expenditures or (C) acquisitions of other properties or assets that, in each of (A), (B) and (C), are used or useful in a Similar Business or replace the businesses, properties and/or assets that are the subject of such Asset Sale; provided that the Issuer may elect to deem expenditures that otherwise would be permissible Investments, capital expenditures or acquisitions of other property or assets within the scope of the foregoing clauses (A), (B) or (C), as applicable, that occur prior to the receipt of the Net Proceeds from such Asset Sale to have been invested in accordance with this clause (ii) (it being agreed that such deemed expenditure shall have been made no earlier than the earliest of (x) notice of such Asset Sale, (y) execution of a definitive agreement for such Asset Sale, if applicable and (z) consummation of such Asset Sale; or

(iii) any combination of the foregoing;

provided that a binding commitment or letter of intent entered into not later than such 450th day shall be treated as a permitted application of the Asset Sale Prepayment Percentage of such Net Proceeds from the date of such commitment or letter of intent so long as the Issuer, or such Restricted Subsidiary enters into such commitment or letter of intent with the good faith expectation that the Asset Sale Prepayment Percentage of such Net Proceeds will be applied to satisfy such commitment or letter of intent within the later of such 450th day and 180 days of such commitment or letter of intent (an “Acceptable Commitment”) or, in the event any Acceptable Commitment is later cancelled or terminated for any reason before the Asset Sale Prepayment Percentage of such Net Proceeds are applied in connection therewith, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary enters into another Acceptable Commitment (a “Second Commitment”) within 180 days of such cancellation or termination; provided, further, that if any Second Commitment is later cancelled or terminated for any reason before such Net Proceeds are applied, then the Asset Sale Prepayment Percentage of such Net Proceeds shall constitute Collateral Excess Proceeds or Excess Proceeds, as the case may be.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 4.10, (i) to the extent that the application of any or all of the Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale by the Issuer or a Foreign Subsidiary (a “Foreign Disposition”) (w) is prohibited or delayed by or would violate or conflict with applicable local law, (x) is restricted by applicable organizational documents or any agreement, (y) is subject to other organizational or administrative impediments from being repatriated to Canada and/or the United States or (z) would conflict with the fiduciary duties of such Foreign Subsidiary’s directors, or result in, or could reasonably be expected to result in, a material risk of personal or criminal liability for any Company Person of such Foreign Subsidiary, then, in each such case, an amount equal to the portion of such Net Proceeds so affected will not be required to be applied in compliance with this Section 4.10, and such amounts may be retained by the Issuer or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary; provided that if at any time within one year following the date on which the respective payment would otherwise have been required, such repatriation of any of such affected Net Proceeds is permitted under the applicable local law, the applicable organizational document or agreement or the applicable other impediment, then an amount equal to such amount of Net Proceeds so permitted to be repatriated will be promptly applied (net of any taxes, costs or expenses that would be payable or reserved against if such amounts were actually repatriated whether or not they are repatriated) in compliance with this Section 4.10 and (ii) to the extent that and for so long as the Issuer has determined in good faith that repatriation of any or all of the Net Proceeds of any Foreign Disposition would have a non-de minimis adverse tax or cost consequence to Holdings or its Subsidiaries or any Parent Entities, Affiliates or direct or indirect equity owners thereof

-132-

(taking into account any foreign tax credit or benefit actually realized in connection with such repatriation in the year of such repatriation), including any withholding tax, with respect to such Net Proceeds if such amount were repatriated as a dividend, the Net Proceeds so affected will not be required to be applied in compliance with this Section 4.10, and such amounts may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary. The non-application of any prepayment amounts as a consequence of the foregoing provisions will not, for the avoidance of doubt, constitute a Default or an Event of Default. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Indenture shall be construed to require the Issuer or any Subsidiary to repatriate cash.

(c) Any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale of Collateral (other than Retained Asset Sale Proceeds and any amounts excluded from this Section 4.10 as set forth in the final paragraph of Section 4.10(b)) that are not invested or applied as provided and within the time period set forth in Section 4.10(b) will be deemed to constitute “Collateral Excess Proceeds”; provided that any amount of Net Proceeds offered to Holders of the Notes pursuant to clause (b)(i)(A)(2)(b) of this Section 4.10 shall not be deemed to be Collateral Excess Proceeds without regard to whether such offer is accepted by any Holders. When the aggregate amount of Collateral Excess Proceeds exceeds $600.0 million (the “Collateral Excess Proceeds Threshold”), the Issuer shall make an offer (a “Collateral Asset Sale Offer”) to all Holders of the Notes and, if required or permitted by the terms of any other First Lien Obligations or Obligations secured by a Lien permitted under this Indenture on the Collateral disposed of (which Lien is not subordinate to the Lien of the Notes with respect to the Collateral), to the holders of such other First Lien Obligations or other Obligations, to purchase the maximum aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) of the Notes and such other First Lien Obligations or other Obligations that is, with respect to the Notes only, in an amount equal to $1,000, or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, that may be purchased out of the Collateral Excess Proceeds at an offer price, in the case of the Notes, in cash in an amount equal to 100.0% of the principal amount thereof (or accreted value thereof, if less), plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture, and in the case of such other First Lien Obligations or other Obligations, at the offer price required by the terms thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in the agreement(s) governing such other First Lien Obligations or other Obligations. The Issuer will commence a Collateral Asset Sale Offer with respect to Collateral Excess Proceeds within 20 Business Days after the date that Collateral Excess Proceeds exceed the Collateral Excess Proceeds Threshold by delivering to the Holders the notice required pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, with a copy to the Trustee. The Issuer may satisfy the foregoing obligations with respect to any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale by making a Collateral Asset Sale Offer with respect to such Net Proceeds prior to the time period that may be required by this Indenture with respect to all or a part of the available Net Proceeds (the “Collateral Advance Portion”) in advance of being required to do so by this Indenture (a “Collateral Advance Offer”).

To the extent that the aggregate amount (or accreted value, if applicable) of Notes and such other First Lien Obligations or Obligations secured by a Lien permitted under this Indenture on the Collateral disposed of, as the case may be, tendered pursuant to a Collateral Asset Sale Offer is less than the amount offered in the Collateral Asset Sale Offer (or in the case of a Collateral Advance Offer, the Collateral Advance Portion), the Issuer may use any remaining Collateral Excess Proceeds (or in the case of a Collateral Advance Offer, the Collateral Advance Portion) (“Declined Collateral Proceeds”) for any purposes not otherwise prohibited under this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, if applicable) of Notes or such other First Lien Obligations or other Obligations, as the case may be, surrendered by such holders thereof exceeds the amount offered in the Collateral Asset Sale Offer (or in the case of a Collateral Advance Offer, the Collateral Advance Portion), the Issuer shall purchase the Notes (subject to applicable DTC procedures as to global notes) and such other First Lien Obligations or other Obligations, as the case may be, on a pro rata basis based on the aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, if applicable) of the Notes or such other First Lien Obligations or other Obligations, as the

-133-

case may be, tendered with adjustments as necessary so that no Notes or such other First Lien Obligations or other Obligations, as the case may be, will be repurchased in part in an unauthorized denomination. Upon completion of any such Collateral Asset Sale Offer (or Collateral Advance Offer), the amount of Collateral Excess Proceeds (or in the case of a Collateral Advance Offer, the Collateral Advance Portion) that resulted in the requirement to make a Collateral Asset Sale Offer shall be reset to zero (regardless of whether there are any remaining Collateral Excess Proceeds (or Collateral Advance Portion) upon such completion). Upon consummation or expiration of any Collateral Asset Sale Offer (or Collateral Advance Offer), any remaining Net Proceeds shall not be deemed Collateral Excess Proceeds and the Issuer may use such Net Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited under this Indenture.

Any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale that does not constitute Collateral (other than Retained Asset Sale Proceeds and any amounts excluded from this Section 4.10 as set forth in the final paragraph of Section 4.10(b)) that are not invested or applied as provided and within the time period set forth in Section 4.10(b) hereof will be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds”; provided that any amount of Net Proceeds offered to Holders of the Notes pursuant to clause (b)(i)(B)(3)(b) of this Section 4.10 shall not be deemed to be Excess Proceeds without regard to the whether such offer is accepted by any Holders. When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $600.0 million (the “Excess Proceeds Threshold”), the Issuer shall make an offer (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to all Holders of the Notes and, if required or permitted by the terms of any Indebtedness that ranks pari passu in right of payment with the Notes (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Existing Notes) (“Pari Passu Indebtedness”), to the holders of such Pari Passu Indebtedness, to purchase the maximum aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) of the Notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness in an amount equal to $1,000, or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price, in the case of the Notes, in cash in an amount equal to 100.0% of the principal amount thereof (or accreted value thereof, if less), plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture, and in the case of such Pari Passu Indebtedness, at the offer price required by the terms thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in the agreement(s) governing such Pari Passu Indebtedness. The Issuer will commence an Asset Sale Offer with respect to Excess Proceeds within 20 Business Days after the date that Excess Proceeds exceed the Excess Proceeds Threshold by delivering to the Holders the notice required pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, with a copy to the Trustee. The Issuer may satisfy the foregoing obligations with respect to any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale by making an Asset Sale Offer with respect to such Net Proceeds prior to the time period that may be required by this Indenture with respect to all or a part of the available Net Proceeds (the “Advance Portion”) in advance of being required to do so by this Indenture (an “Advance Offer”).

To the extent that the aggregate amount (or accreted value, if applicable) of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness, as the case may be, tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the amount offered in the Asset Sale Offer (or in the case of an Advance Offer, the Advance Portion), the Issuer may use any remaining Excess Proceeds (or in the case of an Advance Offer, the Advance Portion) (“Declined Proceeds”) for any purposes not otherwise prohibited under this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, if applicable) of Notes or the Pari Passu Indebtedness, as the case may be, surrendered by such holders thereof exceeds the amount offered in the Asset Sale Offer (or in the case of an Advance Offer, the Advance Portion), the Issuer shall purchase the Notes (subject to applicable DTC procedures as to global notes) and such Pari Passu Indebtedness, as the case may be, on a pro rata basis based on the aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, if applicable) of the Notes or such Pari Passu Indebtedness, as the case may be, tendered with adjustments as necessary so that no Notes or Pari Passu Indebtedness, as the case may be, will be repurchased in part in an unauthorized denomination. Upon completion of any such Asset Sale Offer (or Advance Offer), the amount of Excess Proceeds that resulted in the requirement to make an Asset Sale Offer shall be reset to zero (regardless of whether there are any remaining Excess Proceeds upon such completion). Upon consummation or expiration of any Asset Sale

-134-

Offer, any remaining Net Proceeds shall not be deemed Excess Proceeds and the Issuer may use such Net Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited under this Indenture.

A Collateral Asset Sale Offer, an Asset Sale Offer, a Collateral Advance Offer or Advance Offer may be made at the same time as consents are solicited with respect to an amendment, supplement or waiver of this Indenture, the Notes, the Security Documents and/or the Guarantees (but the Collateral Asset Sale Offer, Asset Sale Offer, Collateral Advance Offer or Advance Offer may not condition tenders on the delivery of such consents).

(d) Pending the final application of the amount of any Net Proceeds pursuant to this Section 4.10, the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries may temporarily reduce Indebtedness, or otherwise use such Net Proceeds in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture.

(e) The Issuer shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws or regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes pursuant to a Collateral Asset Sale Offer, an Asset Sale Offer, a Collateral Advance Offer or an Advance Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Indenture, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations described in this Indenture by virtue thereof.

The provisions of Section 3.08 and this Section 4.10 may be waived or modified with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of all the then outstanding Notes.

Section 4.11. Transactions with Affiliates.

(a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Issuer (each of the foregoing, an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $200.0 million at such time, unless:

(i) such Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are not materially less favorable to the Issuer or its relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person on an arm’s-length basis or, if in the good faith judgment of the Issuer, no comparable transaction is available with which to compare such Affiliate Transaction, such Affiliate Transaction is otherwise fair to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view and when such transaction is taken in its entirety; and

(ii) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $300.0 million at such time, the terms of such transaction have been approved by a majority of the members of the Board of the Issuer or any Parent Entity.

Any Affiliate Transaction shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of clause (ii) of this Section 4.11(a) if such Affiliate Transaction is approved by a majority of the Disinterested Directors of the Issuer or any Parent Entity, if any.

(b) The provisions of Section 4.11(a) hereof shall not apply to the following:

Section 4.12. Liens. The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any Subsidiary Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien (except Permitted Liens) (each, a “Subject Lien”) that secures Obligations under any Indebtedness or any related guarantee of Indebtedness, on any asset or property of the Issuers or any Guarantor, or any income or profits therefrom, or assign or convey any right to receive income therefrom, unless:

(a) in the case of Subject Liens on any Collateral, (i) such Subject Lien expressly has priority that is junior to the Liens on the Collateral relative to the Notes and the Guarantees or (ii) such Subject Lien is a Permitted Lien; and

(b) in the case of any Subject Lien on any asset or property that is not Collateral, (i) the Notes (or a Guarantee in the case of Subject Liens on assets or property of a Guarantor) are equally and ratably secured with (or on a senior basis to, in the case such Subject Lien secures any Subordinated Indebtedness) the Obligations secured by such Subject Lien until such time as such Obligations are no longer secured by such Subject Lien or (ii) such Subject Lien is a Permitted Lien.

Any Lien created for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes pursuant to this Section 4.12 shall be deemed automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of the

-138-

Subject Lien that gave rise to the obligation to secure the Notes. In addition, in the event that a Subject Lien is or becomes a Permitted Lien, the Issuer may, at its option and without consent from any Holder, elect to release and discharge any Lien created for the benefit of the Holders pursuant to the preceding paragraph in respect of such Subject Lien.

With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the incurrence of such Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness. The “Increased Amount” of any Indebtedness shall mean any increase in the amount of such Indebtedness in connection with any accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies or increases in the value of property securing Indebtedness.

Section 4.13. Company Existence. Subject to Article 5 hereof, the Issuer shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence, and the corporate, partnership, limited liability company or other existence of each of its Restricted Subsidiaries, in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of the Issuer or any such Restricted Subsidiary; provided that the Issuer shall not be required to preserve the corporate, partnership or other existence of its Restricted Subsidiaries, if the Issuer in good faith shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of Holdings and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole. For the avoidance of doubt, the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries will be permitted to change their organizational form.

Section 4.14. Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control Triggering Event. If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, unless the Issuers have previously or concurrently sent a redemption notice with respect to all the outstanding Notes as described under Section 3.07 hereof, the Issuers shall make an offer to purchase all of the Notes pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”) at a price in cash (the “Change of Control Payment”) equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of purchase, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date falling prior to or on the Change of Control Payment Date. Within 60 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuers will send (or cause to be sent) notice of such Change of Control Offer electronically or by first-class mail, with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder of Notes to the address of such Holder appearing in the Note Register or otherwise in accordance with the Applicable Procedures with the following information:

(a) that a Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.14 and that all Notes properly tendered pursuant to such Change of Control Offer will be accepted for payment by the Issuers;

(b) the purchase price and the purchase date, which will be no earlier than 10 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is sent (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), except in the case of a conditional Change of Control Offer made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event in accordance with clause (l) of this Section 4.14;

(d) that unless the Issuers default in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, all Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer shall cease to accrue interest on the Change of Control Payment Date;

-139-

(e) that Holders electing to have any Notes purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer shall be required to surrender such Notes, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of such Notes completed or otherwise in accordance with the Applicable Procedures to the Paying Agent specified in the notice at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date;

(f) that Holders whose Notes are being purchased only in part shall be issued new Notes and such new Notes will be equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered. The unpurchased portion of the Notes must be equal to at least $2,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof;

(g) if such notice is delivered prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, stating that the Change of Control Offer is conditional on the occurrence of such Change of Control Triggering Event and shall describe each such condition, and, if applicable, shall state that, in the Issuers’ discretion, the Change of Control Payment Date may be delayed until such time (including more than 60 days after the notice is sent) as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied or waived, or that such repurchase may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the Change of Control Payment Date, or by the Change of Control Payment Date as so delayed, or such notice or offer may be rescinded at any time in the Issuer’s discretion if the Issuer determines that any or all of such conditions will not be satisfied or waived;

(h) any other instructions, as determined by the Issuers, consistent with this Section 4.14 that a Holder must follow; and

(i) that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their tendered Notes and their election to require the Issuers to purchase such Notes; provided that the Paying Agent receives, not later than the close of business on the tenth Business Day prior to the expiration date of the Change of Control Offer, a facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder of the Notes, the principal amount of Notes tendered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its tendered Notes, or a specified portion thereof, and its election to have such Notes purchased.

While the Notes are in global form and the Issuers make an offer to purchase all of the Notes pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, a Holder may exercise its option to elect for the purchase of the Notes or withdraw such election in accordance with the Applicable Procedures.

The notice, if delivered electronically or mailed in a manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. If (a) the notice is delivered or mailed in a manner herein provided and (b) any Holder fails to receive such notice or a Holder receives such notice but it is defective, such Holder’s failure to receive such notice or such defect shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the purchase of the Notes as to all other Holders that properly received such notice without defect. The Issuers shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws or regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Indenture, the Issuers shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached their obligations described in this Indenture by virtue thereof.

(j) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuers shall, to the extent permitted by law:

(i) accept for payment all Notes issued by them or portions thereof validly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

-140-

(ii) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the aggregate Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions thereof so tendered and not validly withdrawn; and

(iii) deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee for cancellation the Notes so accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee stating that such Notes or portions thereof have been tendered to and purchased by the Issuers.

(k) The Issuers shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control Triggering Event if (i) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuers and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer or (ii) in connection with or in contemplation of any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuers (or any Affiliate of the Issuers) have made an offer to purchase (an “Alternate Offer”) any and all Notes validly tendered at a cash price equal to or higher than the Change of Control Payment and has purchased all Notes properly tendered in accordance with the terms of the Alternate Offer.

(l) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event, conditional upon such Change of Control Triggering Event, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of making of the Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer.

(m) A Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer may be made at the same time as consents are solicited with respect to an amendment, supplement or waiver of this Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees and/or Security Documents (but the Change of Control Offer may not condition tenders on the delivery of such consents).

(n) Other than as specifically provided in this Section 4.14, any purchase pursuant to this Section 4.14 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.02, 3.05 and 3.06 hereof, and references therein to “redeem,” “redemption,” “Redemption Date” and similar words shall be deemed to refer to “purchase,” “repurchase” and “Change of Control Payment Date” and similar words, as applicable.

The provisions of this Section 4.14, including the definition of “Change of Control” may be waived or modified with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of all the then outstanding Notes.

Section 4.15. Limitation on Guarantees of Indebtedness by Restricted Subsidiaries.

(a) The Issuer shall not permit any of its Wholly Owned Subsidiaries that are Restricted Subsidiaries (and non-Wholly Owned Subsidiaries if such non-Wholly Owned Subsidiaries guarantee other capital markets debt securities of the Issuer or any Guarantor), other than the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, a Subsidiary Guarantor or an Excluded Subsidiary, to guarantee the payment of (i) any syndicated Credit Facility incurred under Section 4.09(b)(i) hereof or (ii) capital market debt securities of the Issuer or any Guarantor in an aggregate principal amount in excess of $200.0 million unless:

(i) such Restricted Subsidiary within 60 days after the guarantee of such Indebtedness executes and delivers a supplemental indenture to this Indenture, the form of which is attached as Exhibit D hereto, providing for a Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary, except that with respect to a guarantee of Indebtedness of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, if such Indebtedness is by its express terms subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or such Subsidiary Guarantor’s Guarantee, any such guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary with respect to such Indebtedness shall be subordinated

-141-

in right of payment to such Guarantee substantially to the same extent as such Indebtedness is subordinated to the Notes, and executes and delivers joinders to the Security Documents or new Security Documents, together with any filings and agreements, in each case to the extent required by the Collateral Requirements to create or perfect the security interests for the benefit of the Holders in the Collateral of such Subsidiary (provided that with respect to any actions taken with respect to the granting and/or perfection of security interests, notwithstanding the foregoing, no such actions shall be required to be taken in advance of the later of the time required for the taking of such action (or the actual taking of such action) in respect of the Senior Secured Credit Facilities); and

(ii) such Restricted Subsidiary waives and shall not in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any rights of reimbursement, indemnity or subrogation or any other applicable rights against the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary as a result of any payment by such Restricted Subsidiary under its Guarantee.

(b) [Reserved].

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 4.15, this Section 4.15 shall not be applicable to any guarantee of any Restricted Subsidiary that existed at the time such Person became a Restricted Subsidiary and was not incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary. The Issuer may elect, in its sole discretion, to cause any Subsidiary that is not otherwise required to be a Subsidiary Guarantor to become a Subsidiary Guarantor, in which case such Subsidiary shall not be required to comply with the 60-day period described in clause (i) of this Section 4.15.

Section 4.16. [Reserved].

Section 4.17. Suspension of Covenants.

(a) If on any date following the Issue Date, (i) the Notes have an Investment Grade Rating from either of the Rating Agencies and (ii) no Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture (the occurrence of the events described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) being collectively referred to as a “Covenant Suspension Event” and the date thereof being referred to as the “Suspension Date”) then, Section 4.07, Section 4.08, Section 4.09, Section 4.10, Section 4.11, Section 4.15, clause (iii) of Section 5.01(a), Section 5.01(e) and Section 5.01(f) hereof shall no longer be applicable to the Notes (collectively, the “Suspended Covenants”) until the occurrence of the Reversion Date.

(b) During any period that the foregoing covenants have been suspended, the Issuer may not designate any of its Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

(c) In the event that the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to the Suspended Covenants under this Indenture for any period of time as a result of the foregoing, and on any subsequent date (the “Reversion Date”) both of the Rating Agencies withdraw their Investment Grade Rating or downgrade the rating assigned to the Notes below an Investment Grade Rating (in each case, to the extent given an Investment Grade Rating by such Rating Agency), then the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries will thereafter again be subject to the Suspended Covenants under this Indenture with respect to future events. The period of time between the Suspension Date and the Reversion Date is referred to in this Indenture as the “Suspension Period.” The Guarantees of the Subsidiary Guarantors shall be suspended during the Suspension Period. Additionally, upon the occurrence of a Covenant Suspension Event, the amount of Collateral Excess Proceeds and Excess Proceeds from any Asset Sales shall be reset to zero.

-142-

(d) During the Suspension Period, the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries will be entitled to incur Liens to the extent provided for under Section 4.12 hereof (including, without limitation, Permitted Liens) and any Permitted Liens which may refer to one or more Suspended Covenants shall be interpreted as though such applicable Suspended Covenant(s) continued to be applicable during the Suspension Period (but solely for purposes of Section 4.12 hereof and the definition of “Permitted Liens” and for no other covenant).

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of any such reinstatement of the Suspended Covenants, no action taken or omitted to be taken by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries prior to such reinstatement will give rise to a Default or Event of Default under this Indenture with respect to the Notes, and no Default or Event of Default will be deemed to exist or have occurred as a result of any failure by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary to comply with any of the Suspended Covenants during the Suspension Period; provided, that (i) with respect to Restricted Payments made after such reinstatement, the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments will be calculated as though Section 4.07 hereof had been in effect prior to, but not during, the Suspension Period (including with respect to a Limited Condition Transaction entered into during the Suspension Period); (ii) all Indebtedness incurred, or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock issued, during the Suspension Period (or deemed incurred or issued in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction entered into during the Suspension Period) will be classified to have been incurred or issued pursuant to clause (iii) of Section 4.09(b) hereof; (iii) any Affiliate Transaction entered into after such reinstatement pursuant to an agreement entered into during any Suspension Period shall be deemed to be permitted pursuant to clause (vi) of Section 4.11(b) hereof; (iv) any encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary that is not the Co-Issuer or a Guarantor to take any action described in clauses (i) through (iii) of Section 4.08(a) hereof that becomes effective during any Suspension Period shall be deemed to be permitted pursuant to clause (i) of Section 4.08(b) hereof; (v) no Subsidiary of the Issuer shall be required to comply with Section 4.15 hereof after such reinstatement with respect to any guarantee or obligation entered into by such Subsidiary during any Suspension Period; and (vi) all Investments made during the Suspension Period (or deemed made in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction entered into during the Suspension Period) will be classified to have been made under clause (e) of the definition of “Permitted Investments.”

(f) Notwithstanding that the Suspended Covenants may be reinstated after the Reversion Date, (1) no Default, Event of Default or breach of any kind will be deemed to exist under this Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees with respect to the Suspended Covenants, and none of the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries shall bear any liability for any actions taken or events occurring during the Suspension Period, or any actions taken at any time pursuant to any contractual obligation arising during any Suspension Period, in each case as a result of a failure to comply with the Suspended Covenants during the Suspension Period (or, upon termination of the Suspension Period or after that time based solely on any action taken or event that occurred during the Suspension Period), and (2) following a Reversion Date, the Issuer and each Restricted Subsidiary will be permitted, without causing a Default or Event of Default, to honor, comply with or otherwise perform any contractual commitments or obligations arising during any Suspension Period and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby.

(g) Neither the Trustee nor the Agents shall have any duty to (i) monitor the ratings of the Notes, (ii) ascertain whether a Covenant Suspension Event or Reversion Date have occurred, or (iii) notify the Holders of any of the foregoing.

Section 4.18. After-Acquired Collateral.

(a) From and after the Issue Date, subject to Article 12, if the Issuers or any Guarantor acquire any property or rights which are of a type constituting Collateral under any Security Document (excluding, for

-143-

the avoidance of doubt, any Excluded Assets or assets not required to be Collateral pursuant to this Indenture or the Security Documents) or upon any new Subsidiary becoming a Guarantor, it will be required to execute and deliver such security instruments, financing statements and such certificates as are required to satisfy the Collateral Requirement (including the terms of any Security Document) to vest in the Applicable Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Notes Secured Parties, as applicable, a perfected security interest (subject to Permitted Liens) in such after-acquired collateral and to take such actions (including, without limitation, formalization before notary public and registration before the relevant public registries) to add such after-acquired collateral to the Collateral as are otherwise required pursuant to the Collateral Requirement, and thereupon all provisions of this Indenture and the Security Documents relating to the Collateral shall be deemed to relate to such after-acquired Collateral to the same extent and with the same force and effect.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, opinions of counsel will not be required in connection with the addition of new Guarantors or in connection with such Guarantors entering into the Security Documents or to vest in the Applicable Collateral Agent a perfected security interest in after-acquired Collateral owned by such Guarantors.

(c) With respect to any Collateral constituting Material Real Property (that is not an Excluded Asset) acquired after the Issue Date, to the extent likewise provided with respect to the Senior Secured Credit Facilities (at the request of the Administrative Agent thereunder) the Issuers shall cause the Collateral Requirement to be satisfied within 120 days of the acquisition of such Material Real Property or such longer period as permitted under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities (including pursuant to any waivers or extensions of deadlines thereunder) or as extended by the Notes Collateral Agent.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuers and Guarantors (and the Subsidiaries thereof) shall not be required to take any actions with respect to Collateral, if such actions are not required (or if required, no sooner than required) pursuant to the terms of the Senior Secured Credit Facilities (to the extent remaining outstanding).

and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days;

(viii) the Guarantee of Holdings or any Subsidiary Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary (or any group of Subsidiary Guarantors that together (as of the latest consolidated financial statements of the Issuer for a fiscal quarter end provided as required under Section 4.03 hereof) would constitute a Significant Subsidiary) shall for any reason cease to be in full force and effect or be declared null and void or any responsible officer of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary (or the responsible officers of any group of Subsidiary Guarantors that together (as of the latest consolidated financial statements of the Issuer for a fiscal quarter end provided as required under Section 4.03 hereof) would constitute a Significant Subsidiary), as the case may be, denies in writing that it has any further liability under its Guarantee or gives written notice to such effect, other than by reason of the termination of this Indenture or the release of any such Guarantee in accordance with this Indenture;

-150-

(ix) (A) the Liens created by the Security Documents shall at any time not constitute a valid and perfected Lien on any material portion of the Collateral intended to be covered thereby (unless perfection is not required by this Indenture or the Security Documents) other than (1) in accordance with the terms of the relevant Security Document and this Indenture, (2) the satisfaction in full of all Obligations under this Indenture or (3) any loss of perfection that results from the failure of the Applicable Collateral Agent or other Fixed Asset Representative, as applicable, to maintain possession of certificates delivered to it representing securities pledged under the Security Documents and (B) such default continues for 30 days after receipt of written notice given by the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 30% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes; and

(b) In the event of any Event of Default specified in clause (iv) of Section 6.01(a) hereof, such Event of Default and all consequences thereof (excluding any resulting payment default, other than as a result of acceleration of the Notes) shall be annulled, waived and rescinded, automatically and without any action by the Trustee or the Holders, if within 30 days after such Event of Default arose:

Section 6.02. Acceleration. If any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default of the type specified in clause (vi) or (vii) of Section 6.01(a) hereof) occurs and is continuing under this Indenture, the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 30% in aggregate principal amount of all the then outstanding Notes may, by notice to the Issuer and the Trustee (if given by Holders), in either case specifying in such notice the respective Event of Default and that such notice is a “notice of acceleration,” declare the principal, premium, if any, interest and any other monetary obligations on all the then outstanding Notes to be due and payable immediately.

Upon the effectiveness of such declaration, such principal of and premium, if any, and interest will be due and payable immediately.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising under clause (vi) or (vii) of Section 6.01(a) hereof, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable without further action or notice. The Trustee may withhold from the Holders notice of any continuing Default, except a Default relating to the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest.

Section 6.03. Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture.

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of a Note in

-151-

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 6.04. Waiver of Past Defaults. Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of all the Notes then outstanding, by written notice to the Trustee (with a copy to the Issuer; provided that any waiver or rescission under this Section 6.04 shall be valid and binding notwithstanding the failure to provide a copy of such notice to the Issuer) may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default and its consequences under this Indenture and the Security Documents (including in connection with a Collateral Asset Sale Offer, a Collateral Advance Offer, an Asset Sale Offer, an Advance Offer or a Change of Control Offer) and rescind any acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences under this Indenture and the Security Documents (except if such rescission would conflict with any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction and except a continuing Default in the payment of interest on, premium, if any, or the principal of, any Note held by a non-consenting Holder). 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 and the Security Documents; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereto and prior to such waiver, the Issuer has paid or deposited with the Trustee, a sum sufficient to pay all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee, Agents or Notes Collateral Agent hereunder and the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee, Agents or Notes Collateral Agent and their respective agents and counsel.

Section 6.05. Control by Majority. Subject to Section 7.01(e) hereof, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of all the then outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent, and the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent, as applicable, may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent that is not inconsistent with such direction. The Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent, as applicable, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or that the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent, as applicable, determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder (it being understood that neither the Trustee nor the Notes Collateral Agent have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not any such directions are unduly prejudicial to such Holders) or that would involve the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent, as applicable, in personal liability and may take any other action that is not inconsistent with any such direction received from Holders of the Notes. Prior to taking any action hereunder, the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent shall be entitled to indemnification and/or security satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action

Section 6.06. Limitation on Suits. Except to enforce the contractual right to receive payment of principal, premium (if any) or interest when due on or after the respective due dates expressed in an outstanding Note, no Holder of a Note may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless:

(a) such Holder has previously given the Trustee written notice that an Event of Default is continuing;

(b) the Holders of at least 30% in the aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes have requested in writing the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

(c) Holders of the Notes have offered the Trustee security and/or indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense;

-152-

(d) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt thereof and the offer of security and/or indemnity; and

(e) the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such written request within such 60-day period.

Section 6.07. Right of Holders to Sue for Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the contractual right expressly set forth in this Indenture or the Notes of any Holder of a Note to bring suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Xxxxxx’s Notes on or after the respective due dates expressed in this Indenture or the Notes, shall not be amended without the consent of such Holder.

Section 6.08. Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(i) or (ii) hereof occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer for the whole amount of principal of, premium, if any, and interest remaining unpaid on, the Notes and interest on overdue principal, if applicable, and, to the extent lawful, interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

Section 6.09. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceedings, the Issuer, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding has been instituted.

Section 6.10. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes in Section 2.07 hereof, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

Section 6.11. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Note to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article 6 or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

Section 6.12. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Notes (including the Guarantors), their creditors or their property and shall be entitled and empowered to participate as a member in any official committee of creditors appointed in such matter and 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

-153-

payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.06 hereof. 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 7.06 hereof 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 that the Holders 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 Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

Section 6.13. Priorities. Subject to the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, if the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article 6, it shall pay out the money or property in the following order:

(a) FIRST, to the Trustee, to the Agents, and to the Notes Collateral Agent, in each case, and their respective agents and attorneys for amounts due under Section 7.06 hereof, including payment of all compensation, expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee, the Agents, and the Notes Collateral Agent and the costs and expenses of collection;

The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section 6.13.

Section 6.14. 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 and expenses, 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.

Section 7.05. Notice of Defaults.

Section 7.06. Compensation and Indemnity. The Issuers and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall pay to the Trustee, the Agents, the Notes Collateral Agent and the Common Collateral Agent, from time to time such compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder as the parties shall agree in writing from time to time. The Trustee’s, Agent’s, Notes Collateral Agent’s and Common Collateral Agent’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuers and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall reimburse the Trustee, the Agents, the Notes Collateral Agent and the Common Collateral Agent promptly upon request for all out-of-pocket disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s, Agent’s, Notes Collateral Agent’s and Common Collateral Agent’s agents and counsel.

The Issuers and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the Trustee, the Agents, the Notes Collateral Agent, the Common Collateral Agent and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and any predecessor trustee and its officers, directors, employees and agents (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) for, and hold the Indemnified Parties harmless against, any and all loss, damage, claims, liability or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by them in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder (including the reasonable costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Issuers or any of the Guarantors (including this Section 7.06) or defending itself against any claim whether asserted by any Holder, the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or any Guarantor, or liability in connection with the acceptance, exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder) (but excluding taxes imposed on such Persons in connection with compensation for such administration or performance). The Indemnified Parties shall notify the Issuer promptly of any claim of which a Responsible Officer has received written notice for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Indemnified Parties to so notify the Issuers shall not relieve the Issuers or the Guarantors of their obligations hereunder. Except in cases where the interests of the Issuers and/or the Guarantors, on the one hand and the Indemnified Parties, on the other hand, may be

-158-

adverse, the Issuers shall defend the claim and the Indemnified Parties may have separate counsel and the Issuers and Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. Neither the Issuers nor any Guarantor need reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by an Indemnified Party through such Indemnified Party’s own willful misconduct or gross negligence (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment). After the Issuers have assumed the defense of an Indemnified Party or such other Indemnified Party as provided for hereunder, neither the Issuers nor any Guarantor need pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any settlement which affects an Indemnified Party may not be entered into without the consent of such Indemnified Party, unless the applicable Indemnified Party is given a full and unconditional release from liability with respect to the claims covered thereby, and such settlement does not include a statement or admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party.

The obligations of the Issuers and the Guarantors under this Section 7.06 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or the earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee and such other Indemnified Parties, as applicable.

To secure the payment obligations of the Issuers and the Guarantors in this Section 7.06, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except money or property held in trust to pay principal and interest on particular Notes. Such Lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

When the Trustee is requested to act upon instructions of one or more Holders, the Trustee shall not be required to act in the absence of indemnity and/or security against the costs, expenses and liabilities that may be incurred in compliance with such a request.

When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(vi) or Section 6.01(a)(vii) hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the reasonable fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

Section 7.07. 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 7.07. The Trustee may resign in writing at any time and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so notifying the Issuer. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Issuer in writing. The Issuer may remove the Trustee if:

(a) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.09 hereof;

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

(d) the Trustee 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 Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee.

If the Trustee, after written request by any Holder who has been a Holder for at least six months, fails to comply with Section 7.09 hereof, such 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 Issuer. 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 deliver a notice of its succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee; provided all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.06 hereof. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.07, the Issuer’s obligations under Section 7.06 hereof shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

Section 7.08. Successor Trustee by Xxxxxx, etc. If the Trustee or Agent consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation, the successor corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee or Agent. Any corporation into which the Trustee or any Agent for the time being may be merged or converted shall, on the date when such merger, conversion, consolidation, sale or transfer becomes effective and to the extent permitted by applicable law, be a successor Trustee or Agent under this Indenture without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties to this Indenture. After the effective date all references in this Indenture to that Trustee or Agent shall be deemed to be references to that corporation.

It is hereby expressly acknowledged and agreed that, in doing so, the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent and/or the Common Collateral Agent, as the case may be, are not responsible for the terms or contents of such agreements, or for the validity or enforceability thereof, or the sufficiency thereof for any purpose. Whether or not so expressly stated therein, in entering into, or taking (or forbearing from) any action under, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement or any other Security Documents, the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent or the Common Collateral Agent, as the case may be, each shall have all of the rights, privileges, benefits, immunities, indemnities and other protections granted to it under this Indenture (in addition to those that may be granted to it under the terms of such other agreement or agreements).

The Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent (or the Common Collateral Agent) shall have no duty to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms of this Indenture, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement or the Security Documents by the Issuer, any Guarantor or the Notes Collateral Agent (or the Common Collateral Agent).

Section 7.12. Resignation of Agents.

(a) Any Agent may resign its appointment hereunder at any time without the need to give any reason and without being responsible for any costs associated therewith by giving notice to the Issuer and the Trustee 30 days’ prior written notice (waivable by the Issuer and the Trustee); provided that in the case of resignation of the Paying Agent no such resignation shall take effect until a new Paying Agent shall have been appointed by the Issuer to exercise the powers and undertake the duties hereby conferred and imposed upon the Paying Agent. Following receipt of a notice of resignation from any Agent, the Issuer shall promptly give notice thereof to the Holders in accordance with Section 14.01 hereof.

Immediately following such appointment, the Issuer shall give notice of such appointment to the Trustee, the remaining Agents and the Holders whereupon the Issuer, the Trustee, the remaining Agents and the replacement Agent shall acquire and become subject to the same rights and obligations between themselves as if they had entered into an agreement in the form mutatis mutandis of this Indenture.

-161-

(c) Upon its resignation becoming effective, the Paying Agent shall forthwith transfer all moneys held by it hereunder, if any, to the successor Paying Agent or, if none, the Trustee or to the Trustee’s order, but shall have no other duties or responsibilities hereunder, and shall be entitled to the payment by the Issuer of its remuneration for the services previously rendered hereunder and to the reimbursement of all reasonable expenses (including legal fees) incurred in connection therewith.

(i) the Issuer or the Co-Issuer has received from, or there has been published by, the United States Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or

(ii) since the Issue Date, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law,

in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, the beneficial owners of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance 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 Legal Defeasance had not occurred;

(c) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, the beneficial owners of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance 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 Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

(d) no Event of Default (other than that resulting from borrowing funds to be applied to make such deposit and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness and, in each case, the granting of Liens in connection therewith) shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit;

(e) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or any Guarantor is bound (other than that resulting from any borrowing of funds to be applied to make the deposit required to

-165-

effect such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness, and, in each case, the granting of Liens in connection therewith);

(f) the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuer or the Co-Issuer with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any creditors of the Issuer or the Co-Issuer or any Guarantor or others; and

(g) the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel (which Opinion of Counsel may be subject to customary assumptions and exclusions), each stating that all conditions precedent provided for or relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, have been complied with.

Section 8.05. Deposited Money, U.S. Government Securities to Be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. Subject to Section 8.06 hereof, all money, U.S. Government Securities and euro-denominated Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof in respect of the outstanding Notes shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer, Co-Issuer or a Guarantor acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

The Issuers and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or U.S. Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 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 Notes and the related Guarantees.

Anything in this Article 8 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Issuers from time to time upon the written request of the Issuers any money, U.S. Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(a) hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

Section 8.06. Repayment to Issuer. Subject to any applicable abandoned property law, any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Issuers, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, and premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuers on their request or (if then held by the Issuers) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter look only to the Issuers for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Issuers as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease.

Section 8.07. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any United States dollars or U.S. Government Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Issuers’ and the Guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture and the Notes and the Guarantees shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be;

-166-

provided that if the Issuers make any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Notes following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuers shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

Upon the written request of the Issuer, and upon receipt by the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent of the documents described in Section 7.02 hereof (to the extent requested by the Trustee and/or the Notes Collateral Agent and subject to the last sentence of Section 9.05), the Trustee and/or the Notes Collateral Agent shall join with the Issuer and the Guarantors in the execution of any amended or supplemental indenture, security documents or intercreditor agreements authorized or permitted by the terms of this Indenture and the Security Documents and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee and/or the Notes Collateral Agent shall have the right, but not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental indenture, security documents or intercreditor agreements that affect its own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture, the Security Documents or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Opinion of Counsel or board resolution shall be required in connection with the addition of a Guarantor under this Indenture upon execution and delivery by such Guarantor and the Trustee of a supplemental indenture to this Indenture, the form of which is attached as Exhibit D hereto.

-168-

Section 9.02. With Consent of Holders. Except as provided in Section 9.01 and this Section 9.02, the Issuers, the Guarantors, the Trustee and/or the Notes Collateral Agent (and any other Agents party thereto (to the extent applicable)) may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees and the Security Documents with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of all the Notes then outstanding, including consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes and, subject to Section 6.04 and Section 6.07 hereof, any existing Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes (which shall be considered waived only with respect to Notes held by consenting Holders), except a payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with any provision of this Indenture, any Guarantee, the Notes or the Security Documents may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of all the Notes then outstanding, other than Notes beneficially owned by the Issuers or their Affiliates (including consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, the Notes). Section 2.08 hereof and Section 2.09 hereof shall determine which Notes are considered to be “outstanding” for the purposes of this Section 9.02.

Upon the written request of the Issuers, and upon the filing with the Trustee and/or the Notes Collateral Agent, as applicable, of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee and/or the Notes Collateral Agent, as applicable, of the consent of the Holders as aforesaid, the Trustee and/or the Notes Collateral Agent shall join with the Issuer, the Co-Issuer and the Guarantors in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture, security documents or intercreditor agreements unless such amended or supplemental indenture, security documents or intercreditor agreements affect the Trustee’s and/or the Notes Collateral Agent’s, as applicable, own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee and/or the Notes Collateral Agent, as applicable, may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental indenture, security documents or intercreditor agreements.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Issuer shall send to the Holders affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Issuer to send such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental indenture or waiver.

Without the consent of each affected Holder of Notes, an amendment or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not, with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder:

(a) reduce the principal amount of such Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;

(b) reduce the principal of or change the fixed final maturity of any such Note or alter or waive the provisions with respect to the redemption of such Notes (other than provisions relating to (i) notice periods (to the extent consistent with applicable requirements of clearing and settlement systems) for redemption and conditions to redemption and (ii) Section 3.08, Section 4.10 and Section 4.14 hereof;

(d) (A) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on such Notes, except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of a majority in

-169-

principal amount of all the then outstanding Notes, and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration, or (B) waive a Default or Event of Default in respect of a covenant or provision contained in this Indenture, the Notes or any Guarantee which cannot be amended or modified without the consent of all affected Holders;

(e) make any such Note payable in money other than that stated therein;

(f) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults;

(g) make any change in these amendment and waiver provisions;

(h) amend the contractual right expressly set forth in this Indenture or the Notes of any Holder to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Notes on or after the due dates therefor;

(i) make any change to or modify the ranking of such Notes that would adversely affect the Holders; or

(j) except as expressly permitted by this Indenture, modify the Guarantees of Holdings or any Subsidiary Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary, or any group of Subsidiary Guarantors that, taken together (as of the latest consolidated financial statements of the Issuer for a fiscal quarter end provided as required under Section 4.03 hereof), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary in any manner materially adverse to the Holders of such Notes.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of the Holders of at least 66-2/3% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, no amendment or waiver may (A) make any change in any Security Document or the provisions in this Indenture dealing with Collateral or application of trust proceeds of the Collateral with the effect of releasing the Liens on all or substantially all of the Collateral which secure the Obligations in respect of the Notes or (B) change or alter the priority of the Liens securing the Obligations in respect of the Notes in any material portion of the Collateral in any way materially adverse, taken as a whole, to the Holders, other than, in each case, as provided under the terms of this Indenture, the Security Documents or any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement then in effect (as applicable).

Section 9.03. Revocation and Effect of Consents. Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder.

The Issuers 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. If a record date is fixed, then, notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only such 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. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 120 days after such record date unless the consent of the requisite number of Holders has been obtained.

-170-

Section 9.04. Notation on or Exchange of Notes. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Issuer in exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver.

Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

Section 9.05. Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc. The Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment, supplement or waiver does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent, as applicable. Except as set forth in the last sentence of this Section 9.05, the Issuers may not sign an amendment, supplement or waiver until the Board of the Issuer and the Board of the Co-Issuer, as applicable, approves it. In executing any amendment, supplement or waiver, the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent shall be provided with and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) shall be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 14.03 hereof, an Officer’s Certificate and/or an Opinion of Counsel each stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture or security documents or intercreditor agreements is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such amendment, supplement or waiver is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuers and any Guarantors party thereto, enforceable against them in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions, and complies with the provisions hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Opinion of Counsel or resolution shall be required for the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent to execute any supplemental indenture to this Indenture, the form of which is attached as Exhibit D hereto, adding a new Guarantor under this Indenture.

Section 9.06. Additional Voting Terms; Calculation of Principal Amount.

(a) All Notes issued under this Indenture shall vote and consent together on all matters (as to which any of such Notes may vote) as one class and no Notes will have the right to vote or consent as a separate series on any matter. Determinations as to whether Holders of the requisite aggregate principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent shall be made in accordance with this Article 9 and Section 9.06(b) hereof.

(b) With respect to any matter requiring consent, waiver, approval or other action of the Holders of a specified percentage of the principal amount of all the Notes, such percentage shall be calculated, on the relevant date of determination, by dividing (i) the principal amount, as of such date of determination, of Notes, the Holders of which have so consented by (ii) the aggregate principal amount, as of such date of determination, of the Notes then outstanding, in each case, as determined in accordance with the preceding sentence, Section 2.08 and Section 2.09 of this Indenture. Any such calculation made pursuant to this Section 9.06(b) shall be made by the Issuer and delivered to the Trustee pursuant to an Officer’s Certificate.

Section 9.07. No Impairment of Right of Holders to Receive Payment. For the avoidance of doubt, no amendment to, or deletion of any of, the covenants under Article 4 or action taken in compliance with the covenants in effect at the time of such action shall be deemed to impair or affect any legal rights of any Holders of the Notes to receive payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Notes.

-171-

ARTICLE 10

GUARANTEES

Section 10.01. Guarantee. Subject to this Article 10, from and after the Issue Date, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, guarantees, on a senior unsecured basis, to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the Obligations of the Issuers hereunder or thereunder, that (a) the principal of and interest and premium, if any, on the Notes shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other Obligations of the Issuers to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or under the Notes shall be promptly paid in full, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (b) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same shall be promptly paid in full when due in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection. All payments under each Guarantee will be made in U.S. dollars.

The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder are equivalent to the obligations of a primary obligor and shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder, or any other amendment or modification, with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer or Co-Issuer, any action to enforce the same, or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor (other than payment in full of all of the Obligations of the Issuers hereunder or under the Notes). Each Guarantor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer or Co-Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer or Co-Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that this Guarantee shall not be discharged, except by full payment of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture or by release in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.

Each Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Trustee or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section 10.01.

If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuers, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Issuers or the Guarantors, any amount paid either to the Trustee or such Holder, then this Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.

Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 hereof for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6 hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Guarantee. The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any nonpaying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Guarantees. Each Guarantor that makes a payment under its Guarantee shall, to the

-172-

fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be entitled upon payment in full of all guaranteed obligations under this Indenture to a contribution from each other Guarantor in an amount equal to such other Guarantor’s pro rata portion of such payment based on the respective net assets of all the Guarantors at the time of such payment determined in accordance with GAAP.

Until terminated in accordance with Section 10.06, each Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Issuer or Co-Issuer for liquidation or reorganization, should the Issuer or Co-Issuer become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of the Issuer’s or Co-Issuer’s assets, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment of the Notes is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee on the Notes or Guarantees, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent transfer” or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. In the event that any payment or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Notes shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

In case any provision of any Guarantee shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

The Guarantee issued by any Guarantor shall be a general senior secured obligation of such Guarantor and shall be pari passu in right of payment with all existing and future Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor.

Each payment to be made by a Guarantor in respect of its Guarantee shall be made without setoff, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any kind or nature.

Section 10.02. Limitation on Guarantor Liability. Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of each Guarantor shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 10, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under applicable law or being void or voidable under any law relating to insolvency of debtors.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Guarantee of any Guarantor organized outside the United States of America may be limited as necessary or appropriate to (1) comply with applicable law, (2) avoid any general legal limitations such as general statutory limitations, financial assistance, maintenance of share capital, corporate benefit, “thin capitalization” rules, retention of title claims or similar matters or (3) avoid a conflict with the fiduciary duties of such company’s directors, contravention of any legal prohibition or regulatory condition, or the material risk of personal or criminal liability for any officers or directors (collectively referred to as “Agreed Guarantee Principles,” in each case as determined by the Issuer in its sole discretion).

-173-

Section 10.03. Execution and Delivery. To evidence its Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 hereof, subject to Section 10.07 hereof, each Guarantor hereby agrees that this Indenture (or a supplemental indenture in the form of Exhibit D hereto, with such modifications as the Issuer determines is appropriate to comply with the Agreed Guarantee Principles) shall be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by one of its authorized officers.

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of any notation of such Guarantee on the Notes.

If an officer whose signature is on this Indenture (or a supplemental indenture in the form of Exhibit D hereto) no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates a Note, the Guarantee of such Guarantor shall be valid nevertheless.

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

If required by Section 4.15 hereof, the Issuers shall cause any Restricted Subsidiary to comply with the provisions of Section 4.15 hereof and this Article 10, to the extent applicable.

Section 10.04. Subrogation. Each Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of Holders against the Issuers in respect of any amounts paid by any Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.01 hereof; provided that, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Guarantor shall be entitled to enforce or receive any payments arising out of, or based upon, such right of subrogation until all amounts then due and payable by the Issuers under this Indenture or the Notes shall have been paid in full.

Section 10.05. Benefits Acknowledged. Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Indenture and that the guarantee and waivers made by it pursuant to its Guarantee are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

Section 10.06. Release of Guarantees. Each Guarantee by a Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged, and shall thereupon terminate and be of no further force and effect, and no further action by such Guarantor, the Issuers or the Trustee is required for the release of such Guarantor’s Guarantee, upon:

(a) in the case of a Subsidiary Guarantor, any sale, exchange, issuance disposition or transfer (by merger, amalgamation, consolidation, dividend, distribution or otherwise) of (x) the Capital Stock of such Subsidiary Guarantor, after which the applicable Subsidiary Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary or (y) all or substantially all the assets of such Subsidiary Guarantor, in each case if such sale, exchange, issuance, disposition or transfer is made in compliance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture (including any amendments thereof);

(b) the release or discharge of the guarantee by, or direct obligation of, such Guarantor of Indebtedness under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, or the release or discharge of such other guarantee or direct obligation that resulted in the creation of such Guarantee, except a discharge or release by or as a result of payment under such guarantee or direct obligation (it being understood that a release subject to a contingent reinstatement will constitute a release for the purposes of this provision, and that if any such Guarantee is so reinstated, such Guarantee shall also be reinstated to the extent that such Guarantor would then be required to provide a Guarantee pursuant to Section 4.15 hereof);

-174-

(c) in the case of a Subsidiary Guarantor, the designation of any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Subsidiary Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in compliance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture or the occurrence of any event following which the Subsidiary Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary in compliance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary;

(d) upon the merger, amalgamation or consolidation of any Guarantor with and into the Issuer or another Guarantor or upon the liquidation of such Guarantor, in each case, in compliance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture;

(e) in the case of a Subsidiary Guarantor, the occurrence of a Covenant Suspension Event;

(f) as provided under Article 9 or in accordance with the provisions of any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement;

(a) all Notes theretofore authenticated and delivered, except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes which have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust, have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

(b) (i) all Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the making of a notice of redemption or otherwise, will become due and payable within one year or are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the

Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Issuers, and the Issuer or the Co-Issuer has or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, cash in U.S. dollars, U.S. Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on the Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption; provided that upon any redemption that requires the payment of the Applicable Premium, the amount deposited shall be sufficient for purposes of this Indenture to the extent that an amount is deposited with the Trustee equal to the Applicable Premium calculated as of the date of the notice of redemption, with any Applicable Premium Deficit only required to be deposited with the Trustee on or prior to the Redemption Date. Any Applicable Premium Deficit shall be set forth in an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee simultaneously with the deposit of such Applicable Premium Deficit that confirms that such Applicable Premium Deficit shall be applied toward such redemption;

(ii) no Event of Default (other than that resulting from borrowing funds to be applied to make such deposit or any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness and, in each case, the granting of Liens in connection therewith) with respect to this Indenture with respect to the Notes shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or shall occur as a result of such deposit and such deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or any Guarantor is bound (other than resulting from any borrowing of funds to be applied to make such deposit and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness and, in each case, the granting of Liens in connection therewith);

(iii) the Issuers have paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by them under this Indenture with respect to such Notes; and

(iv) the Issuers have delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at maturity or the Redemption Date, as the case may be.

In addition, the Issuers must deliver an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied. Such Opinion of Counsel may rely on such Officer’s Certificate as to matters of fact, including clauses (b)(i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above.

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to the Notes, the provisions of Section 7.06 shall survive with respect to the Notes and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to clause (b)(i) of this Section 11.01, the provisions of Section 11.02 and Section 8.06 hereof shall survive such satisfaction and discharge with respect to the Notes.

Section 11.02. Application of Trust Money. Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06 hereof, all money, U.S. Government Securities deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 11.01 hereof shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer or a Guarantor acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest for whose payment such money, U.S. Government Securities has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money, U.S. Government Securities need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Securities in accordance with Section 11.01 hereof by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or

-176-

judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Issuer’s and any Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 11.01 hereof; provided that if the Issuers have made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuers shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

The Trustee, the Issuers and the Guarantors hereby acknowledge and agree that, subject to the terms of the Initial Intercreditor Agreements and any other applicable intercreditor agreement and as further set forth below, the Applicable Collateral Agent will hold the Collateral for the benefit of the Holders, the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent and certain other secured parties pursuant to the terms of the Notes Security Documents, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and any other applicable intercreditor agreement.

(b) It is acknowledged and agreed that the security interests of the Notes Collateral Agent and the Notes Secured Parties required to be granted hereunder and under the other Notes Documents have been (and in the future are intended to be) granted to the Common Collateral Agent as collateral agent for all Pari Passu Secured Parties (as defined in the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement) including the Notes Secured Parties, and not to the Notes Collateral Agent in its capacity as such hereunder. Such security interests are (or will be) held by the Common Collateral Agent upon the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements.

(c) Subject to the provisions with respect to Single Lien Collateral set forth below, to the extent any security interests securing the Notes Obligations cannot be granted to the Common Collateral Agent for the benefit of all Pari Passu Secured Parties (as defined in the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement) after the use of commercially reasonable efforts (as determined by the Issuers in good faith) the Issuers may cause the Notes Collateral Agent hereunder to hold such security directly in its capacity as such hereunder (which, in the case of jurisdictions other than the United States and Canada, shall only be required if such a security interest can be granted to more than one collateral agent, trustee or other representative), subject to intercreditor arrangements otherwise substantially consistent with the provisions provided for herein or otherwise constituting Acceptable Intercreditor Agreements.

(d) The terms of the Initial Intercreditor Agreements, including the provisions thereof governing Single Lien Collateral, are hereby ratified and approved by the Trustee on its own behalf and on behalf of the Notes Secured Parties in all respects and the Trustee on its own behalf and on behalf of the Notes Secured Parties directs the Notes Collateral Agent and/or Common Collateral Agent to bind itself to the terms thereof on behalf of the Notes Secured Parties.

-177-

(e) In order to give effect to the foregoing, references herein and in the other Notes Documents to the Notes Collateral Agent hereunder (including as set forth below with respect to Single Lien Collateral) shall, unless the context otherwise requires, be deemed to include a reference to the Common Collateral Agent acting in such capacity, and the duties of the Notes Collateral Agent hereunder to take any action shall in such case include a corresponding duty to direct the Common Collateral Agent to take such action, to the extent applicable and to the extent such direction is permitted by the applicable Intercreditor Agreements.

(f) It is acknowledged and agreed that, if in accordance with applicable law or the law governing any applicable Security Document (including foreign law), security interests of a type (or on assets of a type) may not be (or customarily are not) granted to more than one collateral agent, trustee or similar representative (or in the interests of limiting the cost of more than one grant of security, including with respect to the notarization of any relevant security documents or inscription of any such security documents before relevant public registries, including any security over shares in German limited liability companies and certain Mexican assets, such as shares or equity interests), the security interests securing Notes Obligations may be (or have been) granted to either the ABL Collateral Agent, the Notes Collateral Agent or any Common Collateral Agent for the benefit of all Applicable Secured Parties (as defined in the ABL Intercreditor Agreement), including (but not limited to) the Notes Secured Parties, with the Security Documents creating such security interests allocated, to the extent feasible (in the good faith determination of the Issuers) between the ABL Collateral Agent, the Notes Collateral Agent and/or any Common Collateral Agent on the basis of whether the collateral the subject thereof is expected to primarily consist of ABL Priority Collateral or Fixed Asset Priority Collateral, respectively (the collateral subject to such security interests, “Single Lien Collateral”). The security interests in Single Lien Collateral will be held by the applicable agent upon the terms of the Initial Intercreditor Agreements and the Security Documents.

(g) In order to give effect to the foregoing, references herein and in the other Notes Documents to the Notes Collateral Agent hereunder shall, in relation to Single Lien Collateral, unless the context otherwise requires, be deemed to include a reference to the ABL Collateral Agent, the Notes Collateral Agent or any Common Collateral Agent, as applicable, acting in such capacity, and the duties of the Notes Collateral Agent or any Common Collateral Agent hereunder to take any action shall in such case include a corresponding duty to direct the ABL Collateral Agent or the Common Collateral Agent, as applicable, to take such action, to the extent applicable and to the extent such direction is permitted by the Intercreditor Agreements.

(h) In the case of Single Lien Collateral the subject of a security interest to be granted pursuant to a Security Document to be governed by the law of a jurisdiction other than the United States and Canada, if the Issuers determine in good faith that the grant of a single security interest for the benefit of all Applicable Secured Parties (as defined in the ABL Intercreditor Agreement) as described in the preceding clause (f) cannot be achieved after the use of commercially reasonable efforts, then (i) the ABL Collateral Agent may be granted and hold any such Lien granted pursuant to such a Security Document primarily relating to ABL Priority Collateral solely for the benefit of the ABL Secured Parties (as defined in the ABL Intercreditor Agreement) (and, for the avoidance of doubt, no such grant shall be required in favor of the Common Collateral Agent or any Notes Secured Party) and (ii) the Common Collateral Agent may be granted and hold any such Lien granted pursuant to such a Security Document primarily relating to Fixed Asset Priority Collateral solely for the benefit of the Controlling Pari Passu Secured Parties (as defined in the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement) (which, for the avoidance of doubt, may exclude the Notes Secured Parties).

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no inaccuracy or breach, as applicable, of any representation, warranty or covenant in any Notes Document relating to the grant, validity, enforceability,

-178-

perfection or priority of any security interest shall occur, and no Default or Event of Default or other breach of the terms hereof or thereunder shall occur, as a result of the collateral agency and intercreditor arrangements described in this Section 12.01 or in the Initial Intercreditor Agreements.

(j) Each Holder, by accepting a Note, consents and agrees to the terms of the Security Documents (including the provisions providing for the possession, use, release and foreclosure of Collateral), the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, ABL Intercreditor Agreement and/or any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement (as applicable), each as may be in effect or may be amended from time to time in accordance with their terms and this Indenture, and authorizes and directs the Applicable Collateral Agent and, as applicable, the Trustee to enter into or join (including pursuant to amendments or similar agreements), if applicable, the Security Documents, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, and any Security Documents and any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement at any time after the Completion Date, if applicable, and to perform its obligations and exercise its rights thereunder in accordance therewith. The Issuers shall deliver to the Applicable Collateral Agent copies of all documents required to be filed pursuant to the Notes Security Documents, and will do or cause to be done all such acts and things as may be reasonably required by the next sentence of this Section 12.01(j), to assure and confirm to the Applicable Collateral Agent the security interest in the Collateral contemplated hereby, by the Security Documents or any part thereof, as from time to time constituted, so as to render the same available for the security and benefit of this Indenture and of the Notes secured hereby, according to the intent and purposes herein expressed. On or following the Issue Date and subject to the Initial Intercreditor Agreements, the Issuers and the Guarantors (a) shall, at their sole expense, execute, acknowledge, deliver, record and file, or will cause to be executed, acknowledged, delivered, recorded or filed, any and all further documents, financing statements (including continuation statements and amendments to financing statements), agreements and instruments, and take all further action that may be required under applicable law in order to grant, preserve, maintain, protect and perfect (or continue the perfection of) the validity and priority of the Liens and security interests (other on Excluded Assets) created or intended to be created by the Security Documents in the Collateral and cause the Collateral Requirement to be and remain satisfied (in each case subject to the limitations herein, including the Agreed Security Principles) and (b) to the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, hereby authorize the Applicable Collateral Agent and the applicable Authorized Representatives for any applicable Pari Passu Secured Parties (each as defined in the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement), to the extent not otherwise restricted hereunder or in any other applicable Pari Passu Documents (as defined in the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement), to execute and file any financing statements (including continuation statements and amendments to financing statements), on behalf of the Issuers and the Guarantors with respect to all or any part of the Collateral without the signature of the Issuers or the Guarantors to maintain the Lien of the Security Documents described herein and in the Security Documents; provided, however, that the authorization granted in clause (b) of this sentence does not relieve the obligations of the Issuers and the Guarantors in clause (a) of this sentence or negate the provisions of Section 4.08 of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as there are any obligations outstanding under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, no actions shall be required to be taken with respect to the perfection of security interests in the Collateral to the extent such actions are not required to be taken with respect to the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, or in the case of ABL Priority Collateral, the ABL Facility.

The perfection of the security interests (1) by delivery to the Common Collateral Agent of the existing certificated Equity Interests of the Issuers and each Issuer’s wholly owned Domestic Subsidiaries, shall occur on the Issue Date to the extent achievable pursuant to the Initial Intercreditor Agreements and (2) with respect to other Collateral of Domestic Subsidiary Guarantors for which a Lien may be perfected by the filing of a Uniform Commercial Code financing statement (or equivalent) if required to be filed for perfection shall occur on the Issue Date. To the extent any assets owned by the Issuers or any Guarantor on the Issue Date (other than Excluded Assets) are not subject to a valid Lien in

-179-

favor of the Applicable Collateral Agent on or prior to the Issue Date or subject to a Lien in favor of a Applicable Collateral Agent that is not perfected on or prior to the Issue Date, the Issuers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause security interests in the Collateral securing the Notes Obligations to be put in place no later than 120 days after the Issue Date. In addition, the Security Documents will not require the Issuers and the Guarantors to take certain actions to perfect Liens in certain of the Collateral, including, prior to the repayment in full of the obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, if such actions are not requested by the Senior Secured Credit Facilities Administrative Agent with respect to Shared Collateral.

Section 12.02. Release of Collateral.

(a) Collateral may be released from the Lien and security interest created by the Security Documents at any time and from time to time in accordance with the provisions of the Security Documents, the Initial Intercreditor Agreements and this Indenture.

(iv) in respect of the property and assets of a Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor, upon the designation of such Guarantor to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of this Indenture or upon such Restricted Subsidiary otherwise becoming an Excluded Subsidiary;

(i) upon payment in full of the principal of, together with accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes and all other Obligations under this Indenture, the Guarantees and the Security Documents that are due and payable at or prior to the time such principal, together with accrued and unpaid interest, are paid;

(ii) upon a Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance under this Indenture as described under Section 8.02 and Section 8.03 hereof, or a discharge of this Indenture as described under Section 11.01 hereof; or

(iii) pursuant to the Security Documents or the Initial Intercreditor Agreements.

(c) With respect to any release of Collateral, upon receipt of an Officer’s Certificate stating that all conditions precedent under this Indenture, the Security Documents, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, as applicable, to such release have been met and that it is permitted for the Trustee and/or Notes Collateral Agent to execute and deliver the documents requested by the Issuers in connection with such release and any necessary or proper instruments of termination, satisfaction or release prepared by the Issuers, the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent shall, execute, deliver or acknowledge (at the Issuers’ expense) such instruments or releases to evidence the release of any Collateral permitted to be released pursuant to this Indenture or the Security Documents or the Initial Intercreditor Agreements and shall do or cause to be done (at the Issuers’ expense) all acts reasonably requested of them to release such Lien as soon as is reasonably practicable. Neither the Trustee nor the Notes Collateral Agent shall be liable for any such release undertaken in reliance upon any such Officer’s Certificate, and notwithstanding any term hereof or in any Security Document or in the Initial Intercreditor Agreements to the contrary, the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to release any such Lien and security interest, or execute and deliver any such instrument of release, satisfaction or termination, unless and until it receives such Officer’s Certificate, upon which it shall be entitled to conclusively rely.

Subject to the provisions of Article 7 and the Security Documents, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, the Trustee may or may direct the Applicable Collateral Agent to take all actions it determines in order to:

(a) enforce any of the terms of the Security Documents; and

(b) collect and receive any and all amounts payable in respect of the Obligations hereunder.

Subject to the provisions of the Security Documents, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent shall have power to institute and to maintain such suits and proceedings as the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent may determine to prevent any impairment of the Collateral by any acts which may be unlawful or in violation of any of the Security Documents or this Indenture, and such suits and proceedings as the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent may determine to preserve or protect its interests and the interests of the Holders in the Collateral. Nothing in this Section 12.03 shall be considered to impose any such duty or obligation to act on the part of the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent.

Section 12.04. Authorization of Receipt of Funds by the Trustee Under the Security Documents.

-181-

Subject to the provisions of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, the Trustee is authorized to receive any funds for the benefit of the Holders distributed under the Security Documents, and to make further distributions of such funds to the Holders according to the provisions of this Indenture.

Section 12.05. Purchaser Protected.

Section 12.06. Powers Exercisable by Receiver or Trustee.

In case the Collateral shall be in the possession of a receiver or trustee, lawfully appointed, the powers conferred in this Article 12 upon the Issuers or a Guarantor with respect to the release, sale or other disposition of such property may be exercised by such receiver or trustee, and an instrument signed by such receiver or trustee shall be deemed the equivalent of any similar instrument of the Issuers or a Guarantor or of any Officer or Officers thereof required by the provisions of this Article 12; and if the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent shall be in the possession of the Collateral under any provision of this Indenture, then such powers may be exercised by the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent.

Section 12.07. Notes Collateral Agent.

(a) The Issuers and each of the Holders by acceptance of the Notes hereby designate and appoint the Applicable Collateral Agent as its agent under this Indenture, the Security Documents, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and any other Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement (as applicable) and the Issuers and each of the Holders by acceptance of the Notes hereby irrevocably authorizes the Applicable Collateral Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Indenture, the Security Documents, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and/or any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement (as applicable), if any, and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Applicable Collateral Agent by the terms of this Indenture, the Security Documents, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and/or any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement (as applicable), if any, and consents and agrees to the terms of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement and each Security Document (as applicable), as the same may be in effect or may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with their respective terms. The Notes Collateral Agent (in its capacity as the Applicable Collateral Agent) agrees to act as such on the express conditions contained in this Section 12.07. Each Holder agrees that any action taken by the Applicable Collateral Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents (as applicable), and the exercise by the Notes Collateral Agent of any rights or remedies set forth herein and therein shall be authorized and binding upon all Holders. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Indenture, the Security Documents, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and/or any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement (as applicable) the duties of the Notes Collateral Agent shall be ministerial and administrative in nature, and the Notes Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein and in the Security Documents,

-182-

the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and/or any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement (as applicable) to which the Notes Collateral Agent is a party, nor shall the Notes Collateral Agent have or be deemed to have any trust or other fiduciary relationship with the Trustee, any Holder or any Grantor, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Indenture, the Security Documents, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and/or any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement or otherwise exist against the Notes Collateral Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Indenture with reference to the Notes Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

(b) The Notes Collateral Agent may perform any of its duties under this Indenture, the Security Documents, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and/or any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement (as applicable) by or through receivers, agents, employees, attorneys-in-fact or with respect to any specified Person, such Person’s Affiliates, and the respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors and attorneys-in-fact of such Person and its Affiliates (a “Related Person”), and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties, and shall be entitled to act upon, and shall be fully protected in taking action in reliance upon any advice or opinion given by legal counsel. The Notes Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any receiver, agent, employee, attorney-in-fact or Related Person that it selects as long as such selection was made in good faith and with due care. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Affiliates of the Notes Collateral Agent and any such sub-agent.

(c) None of the Notes Collateral Agent or any of its respective Related Persons shall (i) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Indenture or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment) or under or in connection with any Security Document, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and/or any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment), or (ii) be responsible in any manner to any of the Trustee or any Holder for any recital, statement, representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the Issuers or any other Grantor or Affiliate of any Grantor, or any Officer or Related Person thereof, contained in this Indenture, the Security Documents, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and/or any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Notes Collateral Agent under or in connection with, this Indenture, the Security Documents, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and/or any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Indenture, the Security Documents, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and/or any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement or for any failure of any Grantor or any other party to this Indenture, the Security Documents, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and/or any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. None of the Notes Collateral Agent or any of its respective Related Persons shall be under any obligation to the Trustee or any Holder to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Indenture, the Security Documents, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and/or any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement, if any, or to inspect the properties, books, or records of any Grantor or any Grantor’s Affiliates.

-183-

(d) The Notes Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, certification, telephone message, statement, or other communication, document or conversation (including those by telephone or e-mail) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent, or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Issuers or any other Grantor), independent accountants and other experts and advisors selected by the Notes Collateral Agent. The Notes Collateral Agent shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, or other paper or document. The Notes Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any discretionary action under this Indenture, the Security Documents, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and/or any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Trustee or the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes as it determines and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Holders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Notes Collateral Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Indenture, the Security Documents, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and/or any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement in accordance with a request, direction, instruction or consent of the Trustee or the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Holders.

(e) The Notes Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, unless a Responsible Officer of the Notes Collateral Agent shall have received written notice from the Trustee or the Issuers referring to this Indenture, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default” and such notice references the Notes, the Issuers and this Indenture. The Notes Collateral Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Trustee in accordance with Article 6 or the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes (subject to this Section 12.07).

(f) The Notes Collateral Agent under this Indenture may resign at any time by 30 days’ written notice to the Trustee and the Issuer, such resignation to be effective upon the acceptance of a successor agent to its appointment as Notes Collateral Agent. If the Notes Collateral Agent resigns under this Indenture, the Issuers shall appoint a successor collateral agent. If no successor collateral agent is appointed prior to the intended effective date of the resignation of the Notes Collateral Agent (as stated in the notice of resignation), the Trustee, at the written direction of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, may appoint a successor collateral agent under this Indenture, subject to the consent of the Issuers (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld and which shall not be required during a continuing Event of Default). If no successor collateral agent is appointed and consented to by the Issuers pursuant to the preceding sentence within thirty (30) days after the intended effective date of resignation (as stated in the notice of resignation) the Notes Collateral Agent shall be entitled to petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor collateral agent hereunder, such successor collateral agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Notes Collateral Agent, and the term “Notes Collateral Agent” shall include such successor collateral agent, and the retiring Notes Collateral Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as the Notes Collateral Agent shall be terminated. After the retiring Notes Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Section 12.07 (and Section 7.06 hereof) shall continue to inure to its benefit and the retiring Notes Collateral Agent shall not by reason of such resignation be deemed to be released from liability as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Notes Collateral Agent under this Indenture.

(i) If at any time or times the Trustee shall receive (i) by payment, foreclosure, set-off or otherwise, any proceeds of Collateral or any payments with respect to the Obligations arising under, or relating to, this Indenture, except for any such proceeds or payments received by the Trustee from the Notes Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, or (ii) payments from the Notes Collateral Agent in excess of the amount required to be paid to the Trustee pursuant to Article 6, the Trustee shall, subject to the Initial Intercreditor Agreements, promptly turn the same over to the Notes Collateral Agent, in kind, and with such endorsements as may be required to negotiate the same to the Notes Collateral Agent such proceeds to be applied by the Notes Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, the Security Documents, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and the ABL Intercreditor Agreement.

(j) The Applicable Collateral Agent is each Holder’s agent for the purpose of perfecting the Holders’ security interest in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code, can be perfected only by possession. Should the Trustee obtain possession of any such Collateral, upon a written request from the Issuer, the Trustee shall notify the Notes Collateral Agent thereof and promptly shall, subject to the Initial Intercreditor Agreements, deliver such Collateral to the Notes Collateral Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Notes Collateral Agent’s instructions.

(k) The Notes Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the Trustee or any of the Holders to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by any Grantor or is cared for, protected, or insured or has been encumbered, or that the Notes Collateral Agent’s Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected, maintained or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to determine whether all or the Grantor’s property constituting Collateral intended to be subject to the Lien and security interest of the Security Documents has been properly and completely listed or delivered, as the case may be, or the genuineness, validity, marketability or sufficiency thereof or title thereto, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of

-185-

(l) If the Issuers or any Guarantor (i) incurs any obligations in respect of First Lien Obligations, ABL Obligations or other secured obligations at any time when no applicable intercreditor agreement is in effect or at any time when Indebtedness constituting First Lien Obligations, ABL Obligations or other applicable secured obligations entitled to the benefit of an existing First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, ABL Intercreditor Agreement or other Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement is concurrently retired, and (ii) delivers to the Notes Collateral Agent an Officer’s Certificate so stating and requesting the Notes Collateral Agent to enter into an intercreditor agreement (on substantially the same terms as the applicable First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, ABL Intercreditor Agreement or other Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement, or in any event, otherwise on terms constituting an Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement) in favor of a designated agent or representative for the holders of the First Lien Obligations, ABL Obligations or other secured obligations so incurred, together with an Opinion of Counsel, the Notes Collateral Agent shall (and is hereby authorized and directed to) enter into such intercreditor agreement (at the sole expense and cost of the Issuers, including legal fees and expenses of the Notes Collateral Agent), bind the Holders on the terms set forth therein and perform and observe its obligations thereunder; provided that neither an Officer’s Certificate nor an Opinion of Counsel shall be required in connection with the joinder to the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement to be entered into by the Trustee on the Issue Date.

(m) No provision of this Indenture, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement or any Security Document shall require the Notes Collateral Agent (or the Trustee) to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or thereunder or to take or omit to take any action hereunder or thereunder or take any action at the request or direction of Holders (or the Trustee in the case of the Notes Collateral Agent) unless it shall have received indemnity and/or security satisfactory to the Notes Collateral Agent and the Trustee against potential costs and liabilities incurred by the Notes Collateral Agent relating thereto.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement, or the Security Documents, in the event the Notes Collateral Agent is entitled or required to commence an action to foreclose or otherwise exercise its remedies to acquire control or possession of the Collateral, the Notes Collateral Agent shall not be required to commence any such action or exercise any remedy or to inspect or conduct any studies of any property under the mortgages or take any such other action if the Notes Collateral Agent has determined that the Notes Collateral Agent may incur personal liability as a result of the presence at, or release on or from, the Collateral or such property, of any hazardous substances. The Notes Collateral Agent shall at any time be entitled to cease taking any action described in this clause (m) if it no longer reasonably deems any indemnity, security or undertaking from the Issuers or the Holders to be sufficient.

(n) The Notes Collateral Agent (i) shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in connection with this Indenture, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement, and the Security Documents or instrument referred to herein or therein, except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment,

-186-

(ii) shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Notes Collateral Agent may agree in writing with the Issuers (and money held in trust by the Notes Collateral Agent need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law) and (iii) may consult with counsel of its selection and the advice or opinion of such counsel as to matters of law shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered by it in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel. The grant of permissive rights or powers to the Notes Collateral Agent shall not be construed to impose duties to act.

(o) Neither the Notes Collateral Agent nor the Trustee shall be liable for delays or failures in performance resulting from acts beyond its control. Such acts shall include but not be limited to acts of God, strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of war, epidemics, governmental regulations superimposed after the fact, fire, communication line failures, computer viruses, power failures, earthquakes or other disasters. Neither the Notes Collateral Agent nor the Trustee shall be liable for any indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages (included but not limited to lost profits) whatsoever, even if it has been informed of the likelihood thereof and regardless of the form of action.

(p) The Notes Collateral Agent does not assume any responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or any breach by the Issuers or any other Grantor under this Indenture, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents. The Notes Collateral Agent shall not be responsible to the Holders or any other Person for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties contained in this Indenture, the Security Documents, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement, or in any certificate, report, statement, or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Notes Collateral Agent under or in connection with, this Indenture, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement or any Security Document; the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement, and any Security Documents of any other party thereto; the genuineness, enforceability, collectability, value, sufficiency, location or existence of any Collateral, or the validity, effectiveness, enforceability, sufficiency, extent, perfection or priority of any Lien therein; the validity, enforceability or collectability of any Obligations; the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any obligor; or for any failure of any obligor to perform its Obligations under this Indenture, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents. The Notes Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to any Holder or any other Person to ascertain or inquire into the existence of any Default or Event of Default, the observance or performance by any obligor of any terms of this Indenture, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement, and the Security Documents, or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent contained in this Indenture, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement, and any Security Documents or for the performance or observance of any covenants, agreements or other terms and conditions set forth under this Indenture, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents. The Notes Collateral Agent shall not be required to initiate or conduct any litigation or collection or other proceeding under this Indenture, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents unless expressly set forth hereunder or thereunder. Unless otherwise directed hereunder, the Notes Collateral Agent shall have the right at any time to seek instructions from the Holders with respect to the administration of this Indenture, the Security Documents, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement.

-187-

(q) The parties hereto and the Holders hereby agree and acknowledge that neither the Notes Collateral Agent nor the Trustee shall assume, be responsible for or otherwise be obligated for any liabilities, claims, causes of action, suits, losses, allegations, requests, demands, penalties, fines, settlements, damages (including foreseeable and unforeseeable), judgments, expenses and costs (including but not limited to, any remediation, corrective action, response, removal or remedial action, or investigation, operations and maintenance or monitoring costs, for personal injury or property damages, real or personal) of any kind whatsoever, pursuant to any environmental law as a result of this Indenture, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement, if any, the Security Documents or any actions taken pursuant hereto or thereto. Further, the parties hereto and the Holders hereby agree and acknowledge that in the exercise of its rights under this Indenture, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement, and the Security Documents, the Notes Collateral Agent may hold or obtain indicia of ownership primarily to protect the security interest of the Notes Collateral Agent in the Collateral and that any such actions taken by the Notes Collateral Agent shall not be construed as or otherwise constitute any participation in the management of such Collateral. In the event that the Notes Collateral Agent or the Trustee is required to acquire title to an asset for any reason, or take any managerial action of any kind in regard thereto, in order to carry out any fiduciary or trust obligation for the benefit of another, which in the Notes Collateral Agent or the Trustee’s sole discretion may cause the Notes Collateral Agent or the Trustee to be considered an “owner or operator” under the provisions of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”), 42 U.S.C. §9601, et seq., or otherwise cause the Notes Collateral Agent or the Trustee to incur liability under CERCLA or any other federal, state or local law, the Notes Collateral Agent and the Trustee each reserves the right, instead of taking such action, to either resign as the Notes Collateral Agent or the Trustee or arrange for the transfer of the title or control of the asset to a court-appointed receiver. Neither the Notes Collateral Agent nor the Trustee shall be liable to the Issuers, the Guarantors or any other Person for any environmental claims or contribution actions under any federal, state or local law, rule or regulation by reason of the Notes Collateral Agent or the Trustee’s actions and conduct as authorized, empowered and directed hereunder or relating to the discharge, release or threatened release of hazardous materials into the environment. If at any time it is necessary or advisable for property to be possessed, owned, operated or managed by any Person (including the Notes Collateral Agent or the Trustee) other than the Issuers or the Guarantors, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes shall direct the Notes Collateral Agent or the Trustee in writing to appoint an appropriately qualified Person (excluding the Notes Collateral Agent or the Trustee) who they shall designate to possess, own, operate or manage, as the case may be, the property.

(r) Upon the receipt by the Notes Collateral Agent of a written request of the Issuers signed by an Officer (a “Security Document Order”), the Notes Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to execute and enter into, and shall execute and enter into, without the further consent of any Holder or the Trustee, any Security Document to which it is a party or amendment or supplement thereto to be executed after the Issue Date; provided that the Notes Collateral Agent shall not be required to execute or enter into any such Security Document which, in the Notes Collateral Agent’s reasonable opinion is reasonably likely to adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Notes Collateral Agent or that the Notes Collateral Agent determines is reasonably likely to involve the Notes Collateral Agent in personal liability. Such Security Document Order shall (i) state that it is being delivered to the Notes Collateral Agent pursuant to, and is a Security Document Order referred to in, this Section 12.07(r) and (ii) instruct the Notes Collateral Agent to execute and enter into such Security Document. Other than as set forth in this Indenture, any such execution of a Security Document shall be at the direction and expense of the Issuers, upon delivery to the Notes Collateral Agent of an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent to the execution and delivery of the Security Document have been satisfied (provided that no such Opinion of Counsel shall be required to the extent set forth in Section 4.18(b)). The Holders, by their acceptance of the Notes, hereby authorize and direct the Notes Collateral

-188-

Agent to execute such Security Documents (subject to the proviso contained in the first sentence of this Section 12.07(r)).

(s) Subject to the provisions of the applicable Security Documents, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement, each Holder, by acceptance of the Notes, agrees that the Trustee and/or Notes Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall execute and deliver the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement, and the Security Documents, or joinder or similar agreements in respect thereof, to which it is (or is to be) a party and all agreements, documents and instruments incidental thereto, and act in accordance with the terms thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, except as to discretionary rights expressly authorized hereunder or under any applicable Security Document, the Notes Collateral Agent shall have no discretion under this Indenture, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement or the Security Documents and shall not be required to make or give any discretionary determination, consent, approval, request or direction without the written direction of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes or the Trustee, as applicable.

(t) After the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee, acting at the direction of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, may, subject to the Intercreditor Agreements, direct the Applicable Collateral Agent in connection with any action required or permitted by this Indenture, the Security Documents or the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement or any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement.

(u) The Notes Collateral Agent is authorized to receive any funds for the benefit of itself, the Trustee and the Holders distributed under the Security Documents or the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement or any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement and to the extent not prohibited under the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement or any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement, if any, for turnover to the Trustee to make further distributions of such funds to itself, the Trustee and the Holders in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.13 and the other provisions of this Indenture.

(v) In each case that the Notes Collateral Agent may or is required hereunder or under any Security Document, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement or any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement to take any discretionary action (an “Action”), including without limitation to make any determination, to give consents, to exercise rights, powers or remedies, to release or sell Collateral (unless such release is expressly provided for hereunder or thereunder) or otherwise to act in its discretion hereunder or under any Security Document or the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement or the ABL Intercreditor Agreement or any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement, the Notes Collateral Agent may seek direction from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes. The Notes Collateral Agent shall not be liable with respect to any Action taken or omitted to be taken by it in accordance with the direction from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes. If the Notes Collateral Agent shall request direction from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes with respect to any Action, the Notes Collateral Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such Action unless and until the Notes Collateral Agent shall have received direction from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes, and the Notes Collateral Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining.

(w) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or in any Security Document or the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement or any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement, in no event shall the Notes Collateral Agent or the Trustee be responsible for, or have any

-189-

duty or obligation with respect to, the recording, filing, registering, perfection, protection or maintenance of the security interests or Liens intended to be created by this Indenture, the Security Documents, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement or any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement (including without limitation the filing or continuation of any UCC financing or continuation statements or similar documents or instruments), nor shall the Notes Collateral Agent or the Trustee be responsible for, and neither the Notes Collateral Agent nor the Trustee makes any representation regarding, the validity, effectiveness or priority of any of the Security Documents or the security interests or Liens intended to be created thereby.

(x) Before the Notes Collateral Agent acts or refrains from acting in each case at the written request or direction of the Issuers or the Guarantors, other than as set forth in this Indenture, it may require an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, which shall conform to the provisions of this Section 12.07 and Section 14.03 hereof. The Notes Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such certificate or opinion.

(y) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, subject to the Intercreditor Agreements, the Notes Collateral Agent shall act pursuant to the instructions of the Holders and the Trustee solely with respect to the Security Documents and the Collateral.

(z) The rights, privileges, benefits, immunities, indemnities and other protections given to the Trustee are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Notes Collateral Agent as if the Notes Collateral Agent were named as the Trustee herein and the Security Documents were named as this Indenture herein. The rights, privileges, benefits, immunities, indemnities and other protections given to the Common Collateral Agent under any applicable Security Document or the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement. the ABL Intercreditor Agreement or any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement are extended to, and shall be enforceable by the Notes Collateral Agent as if the Notes Collateral Agent were named as the Common Collateral Agent therein.

(aa) Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein (but not with respect to express discretions to the Notes Collateral Agent hereunder), whenever reference is made in this Indenture, to any discretionary action whether by consent, designation, specification, requirement or approval of, notice, request or other communication from, or other direction given or action to be undertaken or to be (or not to be) suffered or omitted by the Notes Collateral Agent in its discretion or to any discretionary election, decision, opinion, acceptance, use of judgment, expression of satisfaction or other exercise of discretion, rights or remedies to be made (or not to be made) by the Notes Collateral Agent, it is understood that in all cases the Notes Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any such discretionary action if it shall not have received written instruction, advice or concurrence of the Holders or any controlling agent or representative under any Intercreditor Agreement or Security Document in respect of such action (in each case as applicable). The Notes Collateral Agent shall have no liability for any failure or delay in taking any actions contemplated above as a result of a failure or delay on the part of the Holders or any controlling agent or representative under any Intercreditor Agreement or Security Document to provide such instruction, advice or concurrence.

[REVERSE OF NOTE]

6.750% Senior Secured Notes due 2028

Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

1. Interest. Clarios Global LP, an Ontario limited partnership (the “Issuer”), and Clarios US Finance Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Co-Issuer” and, together with the Issuer, the “Issuers”), jointly and severally promise to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at a rate per annum of 6.750% from May 4, 2023 until maturity. The Issuers will pay interest on this Note semiannually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning November 15, 2023, or, if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an “Interest Payment Date”). The Issuers will make each interest payment to the Holder of record of this Note on the immediately preceding May 1 and November 1 (whether or not a Business Day) (each, a “Record Date”). Interest on this Note will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from and including May 4, 2023. The Issuers will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at the rate borne by this Note; the Issuers shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at the rate borne by this Note. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

2. Method of Payment. The Issuers will pay interest on this Note to the Person who is the registered Holder of this Note at the close of business on the Record Date (whether or not a Business Day) next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if this Note is cancelled after such Record Date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Cash payments of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Note will be payable at the office or agency of the Issuers maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 4.02 of the Indenture or, at the option of the Issuers, cash payment of interest may be made through the Paying Agent by check mailed to the Holders at their respective addresses set forth in the Note Register of Holders; provided that (a) all cash payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to Notes represented by Global Notes registered in the name of or held by DTC or its nominee will be made through the Paying Agent by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the registered Holder or Holders thereof and (b) all cash payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to certificated Notes may, at the option of the Issuers, be made by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the payee with a bank in the United States of America 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). Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

3. Paying Agent, Transfer Agent and Registrar. Initially, Citibank, N.A., the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent, Transfer Agent and Registrar. The Issuers may change any Paying Agent, Transfer Agent or Registrar without prior notice to the Holders. The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

4. Indenture. The Issuers issued the Notes under an Indenture, dated as of May 4, 2023 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Indenture”), among the Issuers, the Guarantors party thereto from time to time, the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent. This Note is

A-5

one of a duly authorized issue of notes of the Issuers designated as their 6.750% Senior Secured Notes due 2028. The Issuers shall be entitled to issue Additional Notes pursuant to Sections 2.01, 4.09 and 4.12 of the Indenture. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture for a statement of such terms.

(b) At any time prior to May 15, 2025, the Issuers may, at their option and on one or more occasions, redeem all or a part of the Notes, upon notice in accordance with Section 3.03 of the Indenture, at a redemption price equal to the sum of (A) 100.0% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus (B) the Applicable Premium as of the Redemption Date, plus (C) accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the Notes on the relevant Interest Payment Date falling prior to or on the Redemption Date.

(c) At any time on and after May 15, 2025, the Issuers may, at their option and on one or more occasions, redeem all or a part of the Notes, upon notice in accordance with Section 3.03 of the Indenture, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but excluding, the applicable Redemption Date, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date falling prior to or on the Redemption Date, if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning on May 15 of each of the years indicated below:


Year	Notes Redemption Price
2025		103.375	%
2026		101.688	%
2027 and thereafter		100.000	%

(d) At any time prior to May 15, 2025, the Issuers may, at their option and on one or more occasions, redeem the aggregate principal amount of Notes not to exceed amount of the Net Cash Proceeds received by the Issuer from one or more Equity Offerings or a contribution to the Issuer’s common equity capital made with the Net Cash Proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings, upon notice in accordance with Section 3.03 of the Indenture, at a redemption price equal to (i) 106.750% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus (ii) accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the Notes on the relevant Interest Payment Date falling prior to or on the Redemption Date; provided that (A) the amount redeemed shall not exceed 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes issued under the Indenture (including any Additional Notes); (B) at least 40% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes originally issued under the Indenture on the Issue Date remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of each such redemption (unless all Notes are redeemed substantially concurrently); and (C) each such redemption occurs within 180 days of the date of closing of the applicable Equity Offering.

(e) At any time prior to May 15, 2025, the Issuers may, at their option and on one or more occasions, redeem an aggregate principal amount of the Notes not to exceed the amount of the Net Cash

A-6

Proceeds received by the Issuer from a Qualifying IPO or a contribution to the Issuer’s common equity capital made with the Net Cash Proceeds of a Qualifying IPO, upon notice in accordance with Section 3.03 of the Indenture, at a redemption price equal to (i) 106.750% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes being redeemed, plus (ii) accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, subject to the right of Holders of Notes of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the Notes on the relevant Interest Payment Date falling prior to or on the Redemption Date; provided that each such redemption occurs within 180 days of the date of closing of the applicable Qualifying IPO.

(f) In addition, at any time prior to May 15, 2025, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice, the Issuers may redeem up to 10% of the original aggregate principal amount of Notes (including Additional Notes) during any twelve month period at a redemption price equal to 103% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the applicable redemption date.

(g) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with any tender offer, Change of Control Offer, Alternate Offer or Asset Sale Offer for the Notes, if Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes validly tender and do not validly withdraw such Notes in such offer and the Issuers, or any third party making such offer in lieu of the Issuers, purchase all of the Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn by such Holders, all of the Holders of the Notes will be deemed to have consented to such tender or other offer, and accordingly the Issuers or such third party will have the right upon not less than 10 days, nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 60 days following such purchase date, to redeem all Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a price equal to the price offered to each other Holder in such offer (which may be less than par) plus, to the extent not included in the offer payment, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date falling prior to or on the Redemption Date. In determining whether the Holders of at least 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes have validly tendered and not validly withdrawn Notes in a tender offer, Change of Control Offer, Alternate Offer or Asset Sale Offer, as applicable, Notes owned by an Affiliate of the Issuer or by funds controlled or managed by any Affiliate of the Issuer, or any successor thereof, shall be deemed to be outstanding for the purposes of such tender offer, Change of Control Offer, Alternate Offer or Asset Sale Offer, as applicable.

(h) Any redemption pursuant to this paragraph (g) shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06 of the Indenture. Notice of any redemption or offer to purchase, whether in connection with an Equity Offering, Change of Control, Alternate Offer, Asset Sale Offer or other transaction or event or otherwise, may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be given prior to the completion or occurrence thereof, and any such redemption, offer to purchase or notice may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion or occurrence of the related Equity Offering, Change of Control, Asset Sale Offer or other transaction or event, as the case may be. The Issuers may redeem the Notes pursuant to one or more of the relevant provisions in the Indenture, and a single notice of redemption may be delivered with respect to redemptions made pursuant to different provisions. Any such notice may provide that redemptions made pursuant to different provisions will have different Redemption Dates. In addition, if such redemption or offer to purchase is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall state that, in the Issuer’s discretion, the redemption or repurchase date may be delayed until such time (including more than 60 days after the date the notice of redemption or offer to purchase was sent) as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Issuers in their sole discretion), or such redemption or purchase may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied (or waived by the Issuers in their sole discretion) by the redemption or purchase date, or by the redemption or purchase date so delayed, or that such notice or offer may be rescinded at any time in

A-7

the Issuers’ sole discretion if the Issuers determine that any or all of such conditions will not be satisfied or waived. In addition, the Issuers may provide in such notice or offer to purchase that payment of the redemption or purchase price and performance of the Issuers’ obligations with respect to such redemption or offer to purchase may be performed by another Person.

6. Mandatory Redemption. The Issuers shall not be required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payment with respect to the Notes.

7. [Reserved].

8. Redemption for Taxation Reasons. After the Completion Date, the Issuers may redeem the Notes in whole, but not in part, at any time upon giving not less than 10 days’ prior notice to the Holders of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 100.0% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date fixed for redemption (a “Tax Redemption Date”) (subject to the rights of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date) and all Additional Amounts, if any, then due and which shall become due on the Tax Redemption Date as a result of the redemption or otherwise, if the Issuer determines in good faith that, as a result of:

(a) any change in, or amendment to, the law or treaties (or any regulations or rulings, if applicable, promulgated thereunder) of a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (as defined below); or

(b) any amendment to, or change in an official written application, administration or interpretation of such laws, treaties, regulations or rulings, if applicable, (including a holding, judgment or order by a court of competent jurisdiction or a change in published practice or revenue guidance) (each of the foregoing in clauses (a) and (b), a “Change in Tax Law”), a Payor is, or on the next interest payment date in respect of the Notes would be, required to pay Additional Amounts (other than additional amounts payable on the date hereof, if payment were made by any guarantor) with respect to the Notes, and such obligation cannot be avoided by taking reasonable measures available to the Payor (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the appointment of a new Paying Agent where this would be reasonable, but not including assignment of the obligation to make payment with respect to the Notes). Such Change in Tax Law must (i) not have been publicly announced before the Issue Date and (ii) become effective on or after the Issue Date (or, in the case of clauses (i) or (ii), if the applicable Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction became a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction on a date after the Issue Date, before or after such later date (as applicable)).

The foregoing provisions shall apply (a) to a Guarantor only if neither the Issuer nor any other Guarantor is able to make payments on the Notes without the payment of such Additional Amounts and (b) mutatis mutandis to any successor Person, after such successor Person becomes a party to the Indenture, with respect to a change or amendments announced after the time such successor Person becomes a party to the Indenture.

Notice of redemption for taxation reasons shall be delivered in accordance with the procedures described in Section 3.03 of the Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such notice of redemption shall be given earlier than 60 days prior to the earliest date on which the Payor would be obligated to make such payment of Additional Amounts. Prior to the delivery of any notice of redemption of any Notes pursuant to the foregoing, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee and the Paying Agent (a) an Officer’s Certificate stating that it is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to its right so to redeem have been satisfied and (b) an opinion of an independent tax counsel of recognized standing qualified under the laws of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction to the effect that the Payor has been or shall become obligated to pay Additional Amounts as a result of a Change in Tax Law. The Trustee shall accept and shall be entitled to rely on such Officer’s

A-8

Certificate and opinion as sufficient evidence of the satisfaction of the conditions precedent described above, without further inquiry, in which event it shall be conclusive and binding on the Holders of the Notes.

9. Notice of Redemption. Subject to Section 3.03 of the Indenture, notice of redemption shall be delivered electronically or mailed by first-class mail, postage prepaid, at least 10 days (except as set forth in Section 3.07(h) of the Indenture) but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at such Holder’s registered address stated in the Note Register or otherwise in accordance with the Applicable Procedures, except that redemption notices may be delivered electronically or mailed more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with Article 8 or Article 11 of the Indenture. Notes and portions of Notes selected for redemption shall be in integral multiples of $1,000 and no Notes of $2,000 or less can be redeemed in part, except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder shall be redeemed, even if not in a principal amount of at least $2,000.

(a) The Events of Default relating to the Notes are defined in Section 6.01 of the Indenture. If any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default of the type specified in clause (vi) or (vii) of Section 6.01(a) of the Indenture) occurs and is continuing under the Indenture, the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 30% in aggregate principal amount of all of the then outstanding Notes may, by notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, in either case specifying in such notice the respective Event of Default and that such notice is a “notice of acceleration,” declare the principal, premium, if any, interest and any other monetary obligations on all the then outstanding Notes to be due and payable immediately. Upon the effectiveness of such declaration, such principal of and premium, if any, and interest will be due and payable immediately. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising under clause (vi) or (vii) of Section 6.01(a) of the Indenture, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture, the Notes, the Security Documents or the Guarantees except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of all the Notes then outstanding may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power.

(b) The Trustee may withhold from the Holders notice of any continuing Default, except a Default relating to the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest.

(c) Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of all the Notes then outstanding, by written notice to the Trustee (with a copy to the Issuer, provided that any waiver or rescission under Section 6.04 of the Indenture shall be valid and binding notwithstanding the failure to provide a copy of such notice to the Issuer) may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default and its consequences under the Indenture (except a continuing Default in the payment of interest on, premium, if any, or the principal of any Note held by a non-consenting Holder) (including in connection with a Collateral Asset Sale Offer, Collateral Advance Offer, Asset Sale Offer, Advance Offer or a Change of Control Offer) and rescind any acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences under the Indenture (except if such rescission would conflict with any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). 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 the Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereto and prior to such waiver, the Issuer has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee, Agents or Notes Collateral Agent under the Indenture and the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee, Agents or Notes Collateral Agent and their respective agents and counsel.

(d) The Issuers are required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the Issuers shall promptly (which shall be no more than 20 Business Days after becoming aware of such Default) deliver to the Trustee by registered or certified mail or by facsimile transmission an Officer’s Certificate specifying such Default, its status and what action the Issuers are taking or propose to take with respect thereto.

15. Guarantees. The Issuers’ obligations under the Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by the Guarantors.

16. Authentication. This Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee.

A-10

18. CUSIP Numbers and ISINs. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Issuers have caused CUSIP numbers and ISINs to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers and ISINs in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption, and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

19. Security. The Notes and the related Guarantees will be secured by the Collateral on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture and the Security Documents. The Trustee, the Notes Collateral Agent and any other Common Collateral Agent, as the case may be, hold the Collateral in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, in each case pursuant to the Security Documents, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement. Each Holder, by accepting this Note, consents and agrees to the terms of the Security Documents (including the provisions providing for the foreclosure and release of Collateral) and the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement, each as may be in effect or may be amended from time to time in accordance with their terms and the Indenture, and authorizes and directs the Notes Collateral Agent and any other Common Collateral Agent to enter into the Security Documents, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and the ABL Intercreditor Agreement on the Issue Date, and the Security Documents and any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement at any time after the Issue Date, if applicable, and to perform its obligations and exercise its rights thereunder in accordance therewith.

The guarantees and Security Documents in respect of any Guarantor that is a Foreign Subsidiary or that are governed by the law of any jurisdiction other than the United States or Canada will be given (and the applicable documents prepared) in accordance with the principles set out herein (the “Agreed Security Principles”) which address the manner in which the Agreed Security Principles will impact on and determine the extent of the guarantees and security to be provided in relation to the Notes.

general legal and statutory limitations, regulatory restrictions, financial assistance, corporate benefit, fraudulent preference, equitable subordination, “transfer pricing” or “thin capitalization”, “earnings stripping”, “controlled foreign corporation” and other non-U.S. tax restrictions, “exchange control restrictions”, “capital maintenance” rules and “liquidity impairment” rules, tax restrictions, retention of title claims, employee consultation or approval requirements and similar principles may limit the ability of a Guarantor to provide a guarantee or security or may require that the guarantee or security be limited as to amount or otherwise and, if so, the guarantee or security will be limited accordingly;

(ii)

a key factor in determining whether or not a guarantee or security will be granted or taken (and in respect of the security, the extent of its perfection and/or registration) is the applicable time and cost (including adverse tax effects, interest deductibility, stamp duty, registration taxes, fees payable to a public registry, translation costs and notarial costs), which will not be disproportionate to the benefit accruing to the Holders of obtaining such guarantee or security (as determined by the Issuers in good faith);

(iii)

Guarantors will not be required to give guarantees or enter into security documents if it is not within the legal capacity of the relevant Guarantors (which cannot be solved by amending constitutional documents or equivalent actions) or if it would conflict with the fiduciary or statutory duties of their directors or contravene any applicable legal, regulatory or contractual prohibition or restriction or have the potential to result in a material risk of personal or criminal liability for any director or officer of or for any Guarantor; provided that subject to all other provisions hereof, solely in the case of a Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary incorporated under the laws of Germany, commercially reasonable efforts shall be taken by the Issuers and their applicable Restricted Subsidiaries to convert such

E-1

Guarantor incorporated in the form of a stock corporation (Aktiengesellschaft, AG) or limited partnership on shares (Kommanditgesellschaft auf Aktien, KGaA) into a limited liability company (Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung, GmbH) or a limited partnership with a limited liability company as its sole general partner (GmbH & Co. KG) (provided that no such commercially reasonable efforts shall be required to be taken to the extent the taking thereof could result in non-de minimis adverse tax, operational, regulatory or other consequences to Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or any Parent Entities or direct or indirect equity owner of the foregoing (as determined by the Issuers in good faith));

(iv)

guarantees and security will be limited so that the aggregate of translation costs, notarial costs and all registration and like taxes and duties relating to the provision of security, will not exceed an amount to be agreed between the Issuers and the Applicable Collateral Agent;

(v)

where a class of assets to be secured includes material and immaterial assets, if the cost of granting security over the immaterial assets is disproportionate to the benefit of such security, security will be granted over the material assets only (as determined by the Issuers in good faith);

(vi)

it is expressly acknowledged that it may be impossible or impractical to create security over certain categories of assets in which event security will not be taken over such assets;

(vii)

any assets subject to a legal requirement, contracts, leases, licenses or other third party arrangement which may prevent or condition those assets from being charged, secured or being subject to the applicable Security Document (including requiring a consent of any third party; supervisory board or works council (or equivalent)); and any assets which, if subject to the applicable Security Document, would give a third party the right to terminate or otherwise amend any rights, benefits and/or obligations with respect to any Guarantor in respect of those assets or require the grantor to take any action adverse in a non-de minimis respect to the interests of the Issuers and the Guarantors, taken as a whole, or any Guarantor shall not, in each case, be required to be subject to security (provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the applicable Guarantors will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain internal corporate consents (provided that no such commercially reasonable efforts shall be required to be taken to the extent the taking thereof could result in non-de minimis adverse tax, operational, regulatory or other consequences to Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or any Parent Entities or direct or indirect equity owner of the foregoing (as determined by the Issuers in good faith));

(viii)

the giving of a guarantee, the granting of security or the perfection of the security granted will not be required if it would have a non-de minimis adverse effect on the ability of the relevant Guarantor (in the reasonable opinion of the Issuers) to conduct its operations and business in the ordinary course as otherwise permitted by the Notes Documents (including dealing with the secured assets and all contractual counterparties or amending, waiving or terminating (or allowing to lapse) any rights, benefits or obligations, in each case prior to a Declared Default (as defined below) and any requirement under the Agreed Security Principles to

E-2

seek consent of any person or take or not take any other action shall be subject to this paragraph (viii));

(ix)

any Security Document will only be required to be notarized if required by law in order for the relevant security to become effective or admissible in evidence;

(x)

unless required by applicable law or to ensure that the guarantees or security remain effective, no Guarantor shall be required to take any action in relation to such guarantees or security when any Holder assigns or transfers any of its interests to a new Holder (and, unless explicitly agreed to the contrary by the Issuers, no Issuer or Guarantor shall bear or otherwise be liable for any taxes, any notarial, registration or perfection fees or any other costs, fees or expenses that result from any assignment or transfer by a Holder);

(xi)

except as specifically required in the Indenture with respect to Material Real Property, no title investigations or other diligence on assets will be required and no title insurance will be required; and

(xii)

to the extent legally effective under applicable law, (x) all security will be given in favor of the Applicable Collateral Agent and not the secured creditors individually and (y) “parallel debt” provisions will be used where necessary or customary (and included in the Initial Intercreditor Agreements and not the individual security documents).

2.	Terms of Security Documents

The following principles will be reflected in the terms of any security taken in connection with the Notes:

(a)

security will not be enforceable or crystalize until, the occurrence of an Event of Default in respect of which a notice of acceleration has been given and not withdrawn (a “Declared Default”) or, with respect to any individual Guarantor, the commencement of a bankruptcy (or equivalent proceeding) with respect to such Guarantor;

(b)

the beneficiaries of the security or any agent or similar representative appointed by them at the relevant time will only be able to exercise a power of attorney following the occurrence of a Declared Default;

(c)

unless required by applicable law in respect of any pledge of equity interests of a Mexican issuer of such equity interests (but solely during the continuance of an Event of Default), no power of attorney to exercise voting rights shall be granted through a notarized or similar instrument;

(d)

the Security Documents should only operate to create security rather than to impose new commercial obligations or a repeat of clauses in other Notes Documents; accordingly (i) they should not contain additional representations, undertakings, expense sections or indemnities (including, without limitation, in respect of insurance, information, maintenance or protection of assets or the payment of costs) unless these are required for the creation or perfection of security and (ii) nothing in any Security Document shall (or be construed to) prohibit any transaction, matter or other step (or a grantor taking or entering the same or dealing in any manner whatsoever in relation to any asset (including

E-3

all rights, claims benefits, proceeds and documentation, and contractual counterparties in relation thereto) the subject of (or expressed to be the subject of) the Security Document) if not prohibited by the terms of the Indenture (and accordingly to such extent and if effective under applicable law, any such transaction permitted by the Indenture pursuant to which a Guarantor or Collateral is sold or transferred out of the Issuers and the Guarantors (or otherwise becomes an Excluded Asset or Excluded Subsidiary) shall automatically release such Guarantor or Collateral from the applicable guaranty and security and the applicable agents shall promptly effect releases, confirmations, consents to deal or similar steps always at the cost of the relevant grantor);

(e)

the Security Documents shall not include a limitation in respect of the storage and disposition of raw materials, spare parts, inventories or ordinary course assets, unless and until a Declared Default has occurred;

(f)

no security will be granted over parts, stock, moveable plant, equipment or receivables if it would require labelling, deposit at specific facilities, segregation or period listing or specification of such parts, stock moveable plant, equipment or receivables;

(g)

in no event shall control agreements or similar arrangements be required with respect to any assets (including deposit or securities accounts);

(h)

security will, where possible and practical, automatically create security over future assets of the same type as those already secured. Where local law requires supplemental pledges or notices to be delivered in respect of future acquired assets in order for effective security to be created over that class of asset, such supplemental pledges or notices will be provided only upon request of the Applicable Collateral Agent and at intervals no more frequent than annually; and

(i)

to the extent legally practicable, but in all cases subject to clause (d) above, each Security Document should contain a clause which records that if there is a conflict between the Security Document and this Indenture or with the Initial Intercreditor Agreements then (to the extent permitted by law) the provisions of this Indenture or (as applicable) the Initial Intercreditor Agreements will take priority over the provisions of the Security Document.

3.	Passive nature of security for the Notes

(a)

Whether or not any security for the Notes Obligations is documented in a single Security Document for the Notes Obligations and other Obligations of the Issuers and the Guarantors, except to the extent no applicable Credit Facilities remain outstanding, no representation or undertaking in any Security Document in respect of the Notes shall be required to be accurate or complied with, as the case may be, except to the extent that a corresponding representation or undertaking, as applicable, is required to be accurate or complied with in respect of the Credit Facilities and such requirement is being enforced by the applicable administrative agent in respect thereof.

4.	Bank accounts

(a)

Without limiting the principles set forth above, if a Guarantor grants security over its bank accounts it will be free to deal, operate and transact business in relation to those accounts (including, for the avoidance of doubt, close any such account). For the avoidance of doubt, there will be no obligation to hold or pay cash or receivables in a particular account.

E-4

(b)

Unless required to create or perfect the relevant security under applicable law (in which case such notice will be served on the account bank in relation to the applicable accounts within time periods to be agreed for each Applicable Security Jurisdiction and the applicable grantor of the security will use its commercially reasonable endeavors to obtain an acknowledgement of that notice within time periods to be agreed for such Applicable Security Jurisdiction), no notice of security will be served on an account bank in relation to any applicable accounts until the occurrence of a Declared Default. If the relevant grantor is required to give notice to the account bank in accordance with the preceding sentence and it has used its commercially reasonable endeavors for a period of 20 Business Days but has not been able to obtain acknowledgement or acceptance, its obligation to obtain acknowledgement will cease on the expiry of that period. Irrespective of whether notice of the security is required for creation or perfection, if the service of notice would prevent any Guarantor from using a bank account in the course of its business no notice of security will be served until the occurrence of Declared Default.

(c)

Any security over bank accounts for the benefit of the Holders will be subject to any prior security interests in favor of the account bank which are created either by law or in the standard terms and conditions of such account bank. No grantor of security will be required to change its banking arrangements or standard terms and conditions in connection with the granting of bank account security.

(d)

If required under local law, security over bank accounts will be registered subject to the general principles set out in these Agreed Security Principles.

5.	Fixed assets

If a Guarantor grants security over its material fixed assets it will be free to deal with those assets in the course of its business (including storing such assets and disposing of such assets in the ordinary course of business). No notice, whether to third parties or by attaching a notice to the fixed assets, will be prepared or given unless and until a Declared Default has occurred with respect to such Guarantor (and is continuing).

6.	Insurance policies

A Guarantor may grant security over its material insurance policies (excluding any third party liability or public liability insurance and any directors and officers insurance) in respect of which claims thereunder may be mandatorily prepaid, provided that the relevant insurance policy allows security to be so granted. Unless otherwise consented to by the applicable Guarantor in writing in its sole discretion, notice of any security interest over insurance policies will only be served on any insurer of the Guarantors’ assets if a Declared Default has occurred. No loss payee or other endorsement will be made on the insurance policy and no Notes Secured Party will be named as co-insured.

7.	Intellectual property

(a)

No security will be granted over any intellectual property which cannot be secured under the terms of any relevant licensing agreement.

(b)

No security interest over intellectual property will be granted that involves registration with an intellectual or industrial property registry.

E-5

(c)

If security is granted over the relevant material intellectual property, the grantor shall be free to deal with, use, license and otherwise commercialize those assets in the course of its business (including allowing its intellectual property to lapse if no longer material to its business).

(d)

Unless otherwise consented to by the applicable Guarantor in writing in its sole discretion, no notice will be prepared or given to any third party from whom intellectual property is licensed until a Declared Default has occurred. No intellectual property security will be required to be registered under the law of that Security Document, the law of where the grantor is regulated, or at a relevant supra-national registry. Security over intellectual property rights will be taken on an “as is, where is” basis and the Issuers and the Guarantors will not be required to procure any changes to or corrections of filings on external registers.

8.	Receivables

If a Guarantor grants security over any of its receivables it will be free to deal with, amend, waive or terminate those receivables in the course of its business. Unless necessary for perfection, and then only to the extent a Declared Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to such Guarantor, or unless the Issuers otherwise expressly agree in writing in their sole discretion, no notice of security over receivables may be prepared or served on any person who is not an Issuer or Guarantor. Any list of receivables will not include details of the underlying contracts (but may include non-sensitive generic information to the extent that such information is required for the creation of security) and will not be required to be updated more frequently than annually. If required under local law, security over receivables will be registered subject to the general principles set out in these Agreed Security Principles.

9.	Real estate

No fixed security will be granted over real property.

10.	Shares

(a)

Security over shares shall not require the entry into agreements (or other actions taken) outside of any corresponding Applicable Security Jurisdiction.

(b)

Until a Declared Default has occurred (to the extent permitted under applicable law), the legal title of the shares will remain with the relevant grantor of the security (unless transfer of title on granting such security is required in the applicable jurisdiction to create such security) and any grantor of share security will be permitted to retain and to exercise voting rights and powers in relation to any shares and other related rights charged by it and receive, own and retain all assets and proceeds in relation thereto without restriction or condition. With respect to any German or Mexican company, the voting rights and powers in relation to the shares in a German or Mexican company will remain with the pledgor at all times.

(c)

Where customary and applicable as a matter of law, but subject to all applicable Intercreditor Agreements, within the applicable time periods set forth in the Notes Documents, the share certificate (or other documents evidencing title to the relevant shares) and a stock transfer form executed in blank (or local law equivalent), if permitted or customary under applicable law, will be provided to the Applicable Collateral Agent.

Germany

General

For the purposes of any of the German Security Documents, in addition to the other provisions set forth herein and in any other Secured Notes Document and notwithstanding the provisions of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement:

(a) The Trustee hereby appoints the Notes Collateral Agent (and agrees that each of the Notes Collateral Agent and/or the ABL Collateral Agent will under the ABL Intercreditor Agreement act as such agent with respect to the relevant security under German Security Documents constituting Single Lien Collateral) as its agent, attorney (Stellvertreter) and trustee (Treuhänder) under or in connection with any German Security Document, including but not limited to, for the purposes of accepting and administering any German Security Document. The Notes Collateral Agent hereby accepts its appointment on the terms and subject to the conditions set out in this Exhibit F. Without limiting any other authorization granted hereunder or under any other provision set out in any Secured Notes Document or otherwise, the Notes Collateral Agent and/or the ABL Collateral Agent shall in particular be entitled to enter into any German law governed pledge agreement (including with respect to Single Lien Collateral) in its own name as well as in the name of each other Notes Secured Party. For such purposes, the Trustee releases the Notes Collateral Agent and/or the ABL Collateral Agent from the restrictions imposed by §181 of the German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch) and any corresponding restriction set forth in other applicable jurisdictions, in each case, to the extent legally possible.

Limitations relating to a GmbH Guarantor:

(b) To the extent that (x) the Subject Guarantee is granted by a GmbH Guarantor and (y) the Subject Guarantee secures liabilities which are owed by direct or indirect shareholders of that GmbH Guarantor or Subsidiaries of such shareholders (such Subsidiaries not to include the GmbH Guarantor and the Subsidiaries which are also Subsidiaries of that GmbH Guarantor), each of the Guaranteed Parties agrees not to enforce the Subject Guarantee in respect of such amount:

(i) as is required to ensure that the amount of the relevant GmbH Guarantor’s net assets, calculated as the sum of the balance sheet positions shown under section 266 sub-section (2) (A), (B), (C), (D) and (E) of the HGB less the sum of the amounts shown under balance sheet positions shown under section 266 (3) (B), (C), (D) and (E) of the HGB and any amounts not available for distribution to its shareholders in accordance with section § 253 sub-section (6), section 268 sub-section (8) and section 272 sub-section (5) of the HGB, does not fall below the amount of its registered share capital (Stammkapital); or

(ii) where the amount of the relevant GmbH Guarantor’s net assets already is below the amount of its registered share capital, as is required as to ensure that such amount is not further reduced.

(i) to any amounts which correspond to proceeds under the Secured Notes Documents and have been on-lent to, or otherwise been passed on to, the relevant GmbH Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries from time to time to the extent that any such on-lent or passed-on amount is still outstanding at the Guarantee Demand Date or other financial accommodation made available to such GmbH Guarantor or a Subsidiary of such GmbH Guarantor under a Secured Notes Document and provided that, if this first sentence of this paragraph (i) applies, the Trustee waives with binding effect on the Guaranteed Parties the restrictions set out in Article 10 of this Indenture in respect of the GmbH Guarantor’s (and any other restrictions contained in any Secured Notes Document in respect of the GmbH Guarantor’s right to set off its) recourse claim (if any) arising as a result of the enforcement of the Subject Guarantee so that the GmbH Guarantor may exercise its rights to set off its recourse claim (if any) against the loan obligation in respect of the amounts on-lent to it. For the avoidance of doubt, the Trustee may elect not to waive such restrictions provided that if the Trustee so elects the limitations in paragraph (b) apply in relation to any amounts which correspond to proceeds under a Secured Notes Document and have been on-lent to, or otherwise been passed on to, the relevant GmbH Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries;

(ii) if following the Guarantee Demand Date the relevant GmbH Guarantor does not provide financial statements in accordance with paragraphs (e) and (f) below;

F-3

(iii) if and to the extent for any other reason (including, without limitation, as a result of a change in the relevant rules of law) the deficit (Unterbilanz) referred to under paragraphs (b)(i) and (b)(ii) above does not constitute a breach of the GmbH Guarantor’s obligations to maintain its registered share capital pursuant to sections 30 et seq. GmbHG or does not result in a personal liability of the managing directors (Geschäftsführer) of the GmbH Guarantor pursuant to section 43 GmbHG, each as amended, supplemented and/or replaced from time to time;

(iv) if on the Guarantee Demand Date the relevant GmbH Guarantor (as dominated entity) is party to a domination and/or profit and loss transfer agreement (Beherrschungs-und/oder Gewinnabführungsvertrag) other than where despite the existence of such domination and/or profit and loss transfer agreement (Beherrschungs-und/oder Gewinnabführungsvertrag) there would be a violation of sections 30 or 31 GmbHG; or

(v) if and to the extent the relevant GmbH Guarantor holds on the Guarantee Demand Date a fully recoverable indemnity claim or claim for refund (vollwertiger Gegenleistungs- oder Rückgewähranspruch) against its shareholder or against the entity whose obligations are guaranteed under the Subject Guarantee that is capable of being accounted for in the balance sheet of the relevant GmbH Guarantor at full value (vollwertig).

(d) For the purpose of the calculation of the net assets of the relevant GmbH Guarantor, the liabilities resulting from the following shall be disregarded as the relevant balance sheet items:

(i) the amount of any increase of the relevant GmbH Guarantor’s registered share capital after the date of this Indenture (x) if and to the extent it has been effected without the prior written consent of the Trustee or (y) if and to the extent that it is not fully paid up provided that the corresponding claim against the shareholders is not accounted for as an asset in the balance sheet of the GmbH Guarantor at the Guarantee Demand Date;

(ii) loans provided to the relevant GmbH Guarantor that are subordinated in an insolvency proceeding over its assets pursuant to section 39 sub section 1 no. 5 of the German Insolvency Code; and

(iii) indebtedness incurred in grossly negligent or willful violation of the provisions of this Indenture.

(e) The relevant GmbH Guarantor shall deliver (within 20 Business Days following the Guarantee Demand Date) to the Trustee a notification stating that and to which extent the amount payable in respect of its Guarantee Obligations shall be limited in accordance with paragraphs (b)(i) and (b)(ii) above and taking into account the adjustments in paragraph (d) above, such notification to be supported by evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, i.e. interim financial statements (Stichtagsbilanz) showing the balance sheet positions mentioned in

F-4

paragraph (b)(i) above (taking into account the adjustments in paragraph (d) above) (the “Management Determination”).

(f) Following the Trustee’s receipt of the Management Determination, upon the Trustee’s reasonable request (the “Trustee’s Request”), the relevant GmbH Guarantor will deliver (within 25 Business Days following receipt of the Trustee’s Request) to the Trustee an up-to-date balance sheet drawn-up by its auditors together with a determination of the net assets. Such balance sheet and determination of net assets shall be prepared in accordance with accounting principles pursuant to the HGB, be based on the same principles that were applied when establishing the previous year’s balance sheet and take into account the adjustments in paragraph (d) above (the “Auditors’ Determination”).

(g) The Trustee shall be entitled to demand payment under the Subject Guarantee in an amount which would, in accordance with the Management Determination or, if applicable and taking into account any previous enforcement in accordance with the Management Determination, the Auditors’ Determination, not cause the relevant GmbH Guarantor’s net assets to be reduced below the registered share capital of the relevant GmbH Guarantor or further reduced if already below such registered share capital. If (i) and to the extent the net assets as determined by the Auditors’ Determination are lower than the amount enforced in accordance with the Management Determination or (ii) the Guarantee Obligations have been enforced without regard to the limitations set out in paragraphs (b)(i) and (b)(ii) above because (x) the Management Determination was not delivered within the relevant period or (y) the Auditors’ Determination was not delivered within the relevant period but has been delivered within 20 Business Days following the applicable due date for the delivery of the Auditors’ Determination, the Trustee shall without undue delay repay any amounts received by it under this paragraph (g) to the relevant GmbH Guarantor upon written demand of the relevant GmbH Guarantor any amount (if and to the extent already paid to the Guaranteed Parties (or any of them)) in the case of (i) equal to the difference between the amount paid and the amount payable resulting from the Auditor’s Determination, and in the case of (ii) above, which the Trustee would not have been entitled to enforce had the Management Determination and the Auditors’ Determination been delivered within the relevant applicable period provided such demand for repayment is made to the Trustee within 6 months (Ausschlussfrist) from the date the Subject Guarantee is enforced. The Trustee may withhold any amount received pursuant to an enforcement of this Subject Guarantee until final determination of the amount of the net assets pursuant to the Auditors’ Determination.

(h) If pursuant to the Auditor’s Determination the amount of the available net assets is higher than that set out in the Management Determination, the relevant GmbH Guarantor shall pay such amount to the Guaranteed Parties within five Business Days after receipt of the Auditor’s Determination.

(i) In a situation where the relevant GmbH Guarantor does not have sufficient net assets to maintain its registered share capital it shall within three months after a written request by the Trustee, to the extent commercially justifiable, dispose of all assets which are not necessary for its business (nicht betriebsnotwendig) where the relevant assets are shown in the balance sheet of the relevant GmbH Guarantor with a book value which (in the reasonable opinion of the Trustee) is significantly lower than the market value of such assets. After the

F-5

expiry of such three months period the relevant GmbH Guarantor shall, within three Business Days, notify the Trustee of the amount of the net proceeds from the sale and submit a statement with a new calculation of the amount of the net assets of the relevant GmbH Guarantor taking into account such proceeds. Such calculation shall, upon the Trustee’s request (acting reasonably), be confirmed by one of the auditors of the relevant GmbH Guarantor within a period of 20 Business Days following the request.

(j) The limitations in paragraphs (b)(i) and (b)(ii) above do not affect the rights of the Guaranteed Parties to claim any outstanding amount (if any) under this Indenture by way of making a further claim under the Subject Guarantee at a later point in time, provided that limitations in paragraphs (b)(i) and (b)(ii) above remain applicable as of such later Guarantee Demand Date.

Limitations relating to a GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor:

Paragraphs (b) through (j) shall apply mutatis mutandis if the Subject Guarantee is granted by a GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor in relation to the limited liability company (GmbH) as general partner (Komplementär) of that GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor.

Furthermore, each of the Notes Secured Parties hereby authorizes the Notes Collateral Agent to delegate the abovementioned comisión mercantil con representación pursuant to Article 280 and any other applicable Articles of the Mexican Federal Commerce Code (Código de Comercio). Each of the parties hereto agrees that the Notes Collateral Agent shall have only those duties, obligations and responsibilities expressly specified in this Indenture or in the Mexican Security Documents and no other duties, obligations or responsibilities shall be implied, without any responsibility to any Mexican Guarantor should the Notes Collateral Agent not have the ability to take action as a result of the foregoing.
