Interest on a Finance Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate determined in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Company to be the rate of interest implicit in such Finance Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP.

In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents. For the purpose of the Security Documents governed by Belgian law, each Guarantor and Holder appoints the Collateral Agent as its representative in accordance with Article 3 of Book III, Title XVII of the Belgian Civil Code, which appointment is hereby accepted.

Any certificate or opinion of an Officer may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, counsel, unless such Officer knows that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate or opinion of counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an Officer or Officers to the effect that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Company, unless such counsel knows that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous.

Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument.

Section 108. Acts of Noteholders; Record Dates. (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; and, 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 Company, as the case may be. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 701) conclusive in favor of the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, the Company, and any other obligor upon the Notes, if made in the manner provided in this Section 108.

(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 an officer of a corporation or a member of a partnership or other legal entity other than an individual, on behalf of such corporation or partnership or entity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of such Person’s authority. 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 and/or the Collateral Agent deems sufficient.

(c)

The ownership of Notes shall be proved by the Note Register.

(d)

Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action by the Holder of any Note shall bind the Holder of every Note issued upon the transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in respect of anything done, suffered or omitted to be done by the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note.

(e)

(i) The Company may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Notes entitled to give, make or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given, made or taken by Holders of Notes, provided that the Company may not set a record date for, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to, the giving or making of any notice, declaration, request or direction referred to in the next paragraph. If any record date is set pursuant to this

paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Notes on such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and no other Holders, shall be entitled to take the relevant action, whether or not such Persons remain Holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Notes on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Company from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Notes on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Company, at its expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Trustee in writing and to each Holder of Notes in the manner set forth in Section 110.

(ii) The Trustee may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Notes entitled to join in the giving or making of (A) any Notice of Default, (B) any declaration of acceleration referred to in Section 602, (C) any request to institute proceedings referred to in Section 607(ii) or (D) any direction referred to in Section 612, in each case with respect to Notes. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Notes on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to join in such notice, declaration, request or direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Notes on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Trustee from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Notes on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee, at the Company’s expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Company in writing and to each Holder of Notes in the manner set forth in Section 110.

(iii) With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 108, the party hereto that sets such record dates may designate any day as the “Expiration Date” and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided that no such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration Date is given to the Company or the Trustee, whichever such party is not setting a record date pursuant to this Section 108(e) in writing, and to each Holder of Notes in the manner set forth in Section 110, on or prior to the existing Expiration Date. If an Expiration Date is not designated with respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 108, the party hereto that set such record date shall be deemed to have initially designated the 180th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to its right to change the Expiration Date as provided in this paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Expiration Date shall be later than the 180th day after the applicable record date.

(iv) Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled hereunder 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.

(v) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a Holder, including the Depositary, that is the 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 the Depositary, as the Holder of a Global Note, 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.

(vi) The Company may fix a record date for the purpose of determining the persons who are beneficial owners of interests in any Global Note held by the Depositary entitled under the procedures of such depositary to 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 90 days after such record date.

Section 109. Notices, Etc., to Trustee, Collateral Agent and Company. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with,

(1) the Trustee or the Collateral Agent by any Holder or by the Company or by any other obligor upon the Notes shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office or at any other address furnished in writing to the Company by the Trustee; provided that any notice or communication delivered to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall be deemed effective upon actual receipt thereof,

(2) the Company by the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and mailed, first class postage prepaid, to Xerox Corporation, Corporate Headquarters, 401 Merritt 7, Norwalk, CT 06851, Attention: Eric Risi, Senior Legal Counsel, Securities and Finance or to any other address furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company,

(3) the Company, the Collateral Agent or the Trustee, by notice to the others, may designate additional or different addresses for subsequent notices or communications.

Section 110. Notices to Holders; Waiver. Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first class postage prepaid, or by overnight air courier guaranteeing next day delivery, to each Holder, at such Holder’s address as it appears in the Note Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders.

Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

In case, by reason of the suspension of regular mail service, or by reason of any other cause, it shall be impossible to mail notice of any event as required by any provision of this Indenture, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or any Note, where this Indenture or any Note provides for notice of any event (including any notice of redemption) to a Holder of a Global Note (whether by mail or otherwise), such notice shall be sufficiently given if given to the Depositary for such Note (or its designee) pursuant to the customary procedures of such Depositary (including delivery by electronic mail).

Section 111. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents. The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

Section 112. Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Company shall bind its respective successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. All agreements of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent in this Indenture shall bind their respective successors.

Section 113. Separability Clause. In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 114. Benefits of Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors hereunder, any Paying Agent and the Holders, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

Section 115. Governing Law. THIS INDENTURE, THE NOTES AND THE NOTE GUARANTEES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. THE TRUSTEE, THE COLLATERAL AGENT, THE COMPANY, ANY OTHER OBLIGOR IN RESPECT OF THE NOTES, EACH GUARANTOR AND (BY THEIR ACCEPTANCE OF THE NOTES) THE HOLDERS AGREE TO SUBMIT TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY UNITED STATES FEDERAL OR STATE COURT LOCATED IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN, IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE OR THE NOTES.

Section 117. Legal Holidays. In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity of any Note shall not be a Business Day at any Place of Payment, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of the Notes) payment of interest or principal and premium (if any) need not be made at such Place of Payment on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date, or at the Stated Maturity, and no interest shall accrue on such payment for the intervening period.

Section 118. No Personal Liability of Directors, Managers, Officers, Employees, Incorporators and Stockholders. No past, present or future director, manager, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner or stockholder of the Parent Guarantor, the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any Subsidiary of any thereof, in their respective capacities as such, shall have any liability for any obligation of the Parent Guarantor, the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor under the Note Documents, or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, any such obligation or its creation. Each Noteholder, by accepting the Notes, waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes.

Section 119. Exhibits and Schedules. All exhibits and schedules attached hereto are by this reference made a part hereof with the same effect as if herein set forth in full.

Section 120. Counterparts. This Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original; but such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Indenture electronically in portable document format (including any electronic signature covered by the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, the Electronic Signatures and Records Act or other applicable law, e.g., www.docusign.com) or in any other format will be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart. Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, all notices, approvals, consents, requests and any communications hereunder or with respect to the Notes must be in writing (provided that any communication sent to Trustee hereunder must be in the form of a document that is signed manually or by way of a digital signature provided by DocuSign (or such other digital signature provider as specified in writing to Trustee by the authorized representative), in English).

Section 121. Force Majeure. To the extent permitted by the TIA, in no event shall the Trustee or the Collateral Agent be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services (it being understood that the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances).

Section 122. USA PATRIOT Act. The parties hereto acknowledge that in accordance with Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act, the Trustee, like all financial institutions and in order to help fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering, is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person or legal entity that establishes a relationship or opens an account with the Trustee or the Collateral Agent. The parties to this Indenture agree that they will provide the Trustee (acting in any capacity hereunder) or the Collateral Agent with such information as it may reasonably request in order for the Trustee or the Collateral Agent to satisfy the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act.

Section 123. Limited Condition Transaction and Incurrence-Based Amounts.

(a)

In connection with any action being taken in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of determining compliance with any provision of this Indenture which requires that no Default, Event of Default or specified Event of Default, as applicable, has occurred, is continuing or would result from any such action, as applicable, such condition shall, at the option of the Company, be deemed satisfied, so long as no Default, Event of Default or specified Event of Default, as applicable, exists on the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into or irrevocable notice (which may be conditional) of redemption,

repurchase, defeasance, satisfaction and discharge or repayment of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is given. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Company has exercised its option under the first sentence of this Section 123, and any Default, Event of Default or specified Event of Default, as applicable, occurs following the date the definitive agreements for the applicable Limited Condition Transaction were entered into or irrevocable notice (which may be conditional) of redemption, repurchase, defeasance, satisfaction and discharge or repayment of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is given and prior to the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such Default, Event of Default or specified Event of Default, as applicable, shall be deemed to not have occurred or be continuing for purposes of determining whether any action being taken in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction is permitted hereunder.

In connection with any action being taken in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of:

(i) determining compliance with any provision of this Indenture which requires the calculation of the Consolidated Coverage Ratio, the Consolidated First Lien Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Secured Leverage Ratio or the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio; or

(ii) testing baskets set forth in this Indenture (including baskets measured as a percentage of LTM EBITDA);

in each case, at the option of the Company (the Company’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an “LCT Election”), the date of determination of whether any such action is permitted hereunder, shall be deemed to be the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into or irrevocable notice (which may be conditional) of redemption, repurchase, defeasance, satisfaction and discharge or repayment of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is given, as applicable (the “LCT Test Date”), and if, after giving pro forma effect to the Limited Condition Transaction and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any Incurrence or discharge of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds of such Incurrence) as if they had occurred at the beginning of the most recent four consecutive fiscal quarters ending prior to the LCT Test Date for which consolidated financial statements of the Parent Guarantor are available, the Company could have taken such action on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with such ratio, basket or amount, such ratio, basket or amount shall be deemed to have been complied with. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Company has made an LCT Election and any of the ratios, baskets or amounts for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio, basket or amount, including due to fluctuations in LTM EBITDA of the Parent Guarantor or the Person subject to such Limited Condition Transaction or any applicable currency exchange rate, at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such baskets, ratios or amounts will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations. If the Company has made an LCT Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio, basket or amount with respect to the Incurrence of Indebtedness or Liens, or the making of Restricted Payments, Asset Dispositions, mergers, the conveyance, lease or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Parent Guarantor or the designation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary on or following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such ratio, basket or amount shall be calculated on a Pro Forma Basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any Incurrence or discharge of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein and whether or not in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, unless the Company otherwise elects, with respect to any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Indenture that does not require compliance with a financial ratio or financial test (including any Consolidated First Lien Leverage Ratio test, Consolidated Secured Leverage Ratio test, Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio test and/or any Consolidated Coverage Ratio test) (any such amounts, the “Fixed Amounts”) substantially concurrently with any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Indenture that requires compliance with a financial ratio or financial test (including any Consolidated First Lien Leverage Ratio test, Consolidated Secured Leverage Ratio test, Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio test and/or any Consolidated Coverage Ratio test) (any such amounts, the “Incurrence-Based Amounts”) it is understood and agreed that (A) the incurrence of the Incurrence-Based Amount shall be calculated first without giving effect to any Fixed Amount but giving full pro forma effect to the use of proceeds of such Fixed Amount and the related transactions and (B) the incurrence of the Fixed Amount shall be calculated thereafter. Unless the Company elects otherwise, the Company shall be deemed to have used amounts under an Incurrence-Based Amount then available to the Parent Guarantor and its Restricted Subsidiaries prior to utilization of any amount under a Fixed Amount then available to the Parent Guarantor and its Restricted Subsidiaries.

Section 124. Intercreditor Agreements.

(a) Each Holder, by accepting such Note, will be deemed to have (i) appointed and authorized the Collateral Agent and the Trustee, as applicable to give effect to the provisions in the Intercreditor Agreements, any additional intercreditor agreements and the Security Documents and perform the duties and exercise the rights, powers and discretions that are specifically given to it under the Intercreditor Agreements and the Security Documents securing such Indebtedness, together with any other incidental rights, power and discretions, (ii) agreed to be bound by the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreements, any additional intercreditor agreements and the Security Documents (including, for the avoidance of doubt, consenting to the subordination of Liens provided for in the ABL Intercreditor Agreement) and (iii) irrevocably appointed the Collateral Agent and the Trustee to act on its behalf to enter into and comply with the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreements, any additional intercreditor agreements and the Security Documents (including the execution of, and compliance with, any waiver, modification, amendment, renewal or replacement expressed to be executed by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent on its behalf).

(b) The parties acknowledge and agree that U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association is entering into (i) the ABL Intercreditor Agreement in its capacity as a Fixed Asset Collateral Agent thereunder, (ii) the Pari Passu First Lien Intercreditor Agreement in its capacity as Collateral Agent thereunder, (iii) the First Lien/Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement in its capacity as Collateral Agent thereunder, (iv) the ITsavvy Intercreditor Agreement in its capacity as a Senior Class Debt Representative, Representative and Senior Representative thereunder, and (v) the Securitization Intercreditor Agreement in its capacity as an ABL Agent thereunder. In the event of any conflict between this Indenture, the Notes or any Security Document, on the one hand, and an Intercreditor Agreement on the other, the terms of such Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control (except that with respect to any conflict between the Indenture, the Note or any Security Document, on the one hand, and an Intercreditor Agreement, on the other hand, relating to the protections, rights, indemnities, immunities, privileges, and benefits of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, the terms of the Indenture, the Notes or such Security Document shall govern and control).

ARTICLE III

THE NOTES

Section 301. General Terms; Additional Notes. All Notes will vote (or consent) as a class with the other Notes and otherwise be treated as a single class of Notes for all purposes of this Indenture. Each Note will bear interest at a rate of 10.250% per annum from the Issue Date or from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or provided for, payable semi-annually on April 15 and October 15 of each year (each such date, an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing October 15, 2025 to Holders of record as of the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be April 1 or October 1 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, next preceding such Interest Payment Date.

Additional Notes ranking pari passu with the Initial Notes may be created and issued from time to time by the Company without notice to or consent of the Holders and shall be consolidated with and form a single class with the Initial Notes and shall have the same terms as to status, redemption or otherwise as the Initial Notes other than with respect to the date of issuance and, if applicable, original interest accrual date and original interest payment date; provided that the Company’s ability to issue Additional Notes shall

be subject solely to the Company’s compliance with Section 407 hereof. Any Additional Notes may be issued with the benefit of an indenture supplemental to this Indenture; provided further, however, that in the event any Additional Notes are not fungible with the Initial Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such non-fungible notes will be issued with a separate CUSIP number or ISIN so they are distinguishable from the Initial Notes.

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

Section 302. Denominations. The Notes shall be issuable only in fully registered form, without coupons, and only in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

Section 303. Execution, Authentication and Delivery and Dating. The Notes shall be executed on behalf of the Company by one Officer of the Company. The signature of any such Officer on the Notes may be manual or electronic.

Notes bearing the manual, electronic or facsimile signature of an individual who was at any time an Officer of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individual has ceased to hold such office prior to the authentication and delivery of such Notes or did not hold such office at the date of such Notes.

At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Notes executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication; and upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver (i) Initial Notes for original issue in the aggregate principal amount not to exceed $400.0 million and (ii) subject to Section 407, Additional Notes from time to time for original issue in aggregate principal amounts specified by the Company (which shall have identical terms as the Initial Notes, other than with respect to the date of issuance and, if applicable, original interest accrual date and original interest payment date), in each case specified in clauses (i) and (ii) above, upon a written order of the Company in the form of an Officer’s Certificate of the Company (an “Authentication Order”). Such Authentication Order shall specify the amount of Notes to be authenticated and the date on which the Notes are to be authenticated, the “CUSIP”, “ISIN”, “Common Code” or other similar identification numbers of such Notes, if any, whether the Notes are to be Initial Notes or Additional Notes, the issue price (in the case of Additional Notes) and whether the Notes are to be issued as one or more Global Notes or Physical Notes and such other information as the Company may include or the Trustee may reasonably request.

All Notes shall be dated the date of their authentication.

No Note shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless there appears on such Note a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by manual or electronic signature, and such certificate upon any Note shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Note has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.

Section 304. Temporary Notes. Until definitive Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and upon receipt of an Authentication Order the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of definitive Notes but may have variations that

the Company considers appropriate for temporary Notes. If temporary Notes are issued, the Company will cause definitive Notes to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Notes, the temporary Notes shall be exchangeable for definitive Notes upon surrender of the temporary Notes at the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Notes, the Company shall execute and upon receipt of an Authentication Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Notes of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged the temporary Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Notes.

Section 305. Note Registrar and Paying Agent. The Company shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the “Registrar”) and cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register (the register maintained in such office and in any other office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the “Note Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, such Company shall provide for the registration of Notes and of transfers of Notes. The Company may have one or more co-registrars. The term “Note Registrar” includes any co-registrars.

The Company initially appoints the Trustee as “Note Registrar” and “Paying Agent” in connection with the Notes, until such time as it has resigned or a successor has been appointed. The Company may have one or more additional paying agents, and the term “Paying Agent” shall include any additional Paying Agent. The Company may change the Paying Agent or Note Registrar without prior notice to the Holders of Notes. The Company may enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Note Registrar or Paying Agent not a party to this Indenture. Any such agency agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any such agent. If the Company fails to appoint or maintain a Note Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 707. The Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company may act as Paying Agent (except for purposes of Section 1103 or Section 1205) or Note Registrar. In acting hereunder and in connection with the Notes, the Note Registrar and the Paying Agent shall act solely as agents of the Company, and will not thereby assume any obligations towards or relationship of agency or trust for or with any Holder of the Notes.

Upon surrender for transfer of any Note at the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment, in compliance with all applicable requirements of this Indenture and applicable law, the Company shall execute, and upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount.

At the option of the Holder, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Notes that the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

All Notes issued upon any transfer or exchange of Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Notes surrendered upon such transfer or exchange.

Every Note presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company duly executed, by the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing.

No service charge shall be made for any registration, transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Company or the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith.

The Company shall not be required (i) to issue, transfer or exchange any Note during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 Business Days before the day of the mailing of a notice of redemption (or purchase) of Notes selected for redemption (or purchase) under Section 1004 and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing or (ii) to transfer or exchange any Note so selected for redemption (or purchase) in whole or in part.

In case any of the Company or any Guarantor, pursuant to Article V shall be consolidated or merged with or into any other Person or shall convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any Person, and the successor Person resulting from such consolidation, or surviving such merger, or into which the Company or any Guarantor shall have been merged, or the Person which shall have received a conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition as aforesaid, shall have executed an indenture supplemental hereto with the Trustee pursuant to Article V, any of the Notes authenticated or delivered prior to such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition may (but shall not be required), from time to time, at the request of the successor Person, be exchanged for other Notes executed in the name of the successor Person with such changes in phraseology and form as may be appropriate to reflect such successor Person, but otherwise in substance of like tenor as the Notes surrendered for such exchange and of like principal amount; and the Trustee, upon the Company Order of the successor Person, shall authenticate and make available for delivery Notes as specified in such order for the purpose of such exchange. If Notes shall at any time be authenticated and delivered in any new name of a successor Person pursuant to this Section 305 in exchange or substitution for or upon registration of transfer of any Notes, such successor Person, at the option of the Holders but without expense to them, shall provide for the exchange of all Notes at the time outstanding for Notes authenticated and delivered in such new name.

Section 306. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Notes. If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Note Registrar or if the Holder of a Note claims that the Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company shall issue and upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note if the requirements of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code are met, such that the Holder (a) notifies the Company or the Trustee in writing within a reasonable time after such Holder has notice of such loss, destruction or wrongful taking and the Note Registrar does not register a transfer prior to receiving such notification, (b) makes such request to the Company or the Trustee prior to the Note being acquired by a protected purchaser as defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code and (c) satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Company. If required by the Trustee or the Company, such Holder shall furnish indemnity, security and/or an indemnity bond sufficient in the judgment of (i) the Trustee to protect the Trustee and (ii) the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee, a Paying Agent and the Note Registrar, from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced.

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

Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section 306, the Company or the Trustee may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.

Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section 306 in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and ratably with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

The provisions of this Section 306 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

Section 307. Payment of Interest Rights Preserved. Interest on any Note that is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date.

Any interest on any Note that is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder; and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election, as provided in clause (1) or clause (2) below:

(1) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Notes (or their respective Predecessor Notes) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee and Paying Agent in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment, and the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or Paying Agent an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee or Paying Agent 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 clause (1). Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 nor less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee and the Paying Agent of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first class postage prepaid, to each Holder at such Holder’s address as it appears in the Note Register, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Notes (or their respective Predecessor Notes) are registered on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (2).

(2) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange.

Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 307, each Note delivered under this Indenture upon 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, that were carried by such other Note.

Section 308. Persons Deemed Owners. The Company, any Guarantor, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any), and (subject to Section 307) interest on, such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note be overdue, and neither the Company, any Guarantor, the Trustee, the Paying Agent nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Section 309. Cancellation. All Notes surrendered for payment, redemption, transfer, exchange or conversion shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and, if not already cancelled, shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered hereunder that the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Notes so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes cancelled as provided in this Section 309, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Notes held by the Trustee shall be disposed of by the Trustee in accordance with its customary procedures (subject to the record retention requirements of the Exchange Act).

Section 310. Computation of Interest. Interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

Section 311. CUSIP Numbers, ISINs, Etc. The Company in issuing Notes may use “CUSIP” numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers (if then generally in use), and if so, the Trustee may use the CUSIP numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers in notices of redemption or exchange as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of such numbers printed in the notice or on the Notes; that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes; and that any redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers.

Section 312. Book-Entry Provisions for Global Notes. (a) Each Global Note initially shall (i) be registered in the name of the Depositary for such Global Note or the nominee of such Depositary, in each case for credit to the account of an Agent Member, and (ii) be delivered to the Trustee as custodian for such Depositary. None of the Company, any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Global Note, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.

(b)

Members of, or participants in, the Depositary (“Agent Members”) shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the Depositary, or its custodian, or under such Global Notes. The Depositary may be treated by the Company, any other obligor upon the Notes, the Trustee and any agent of any of them as the absolute owner of the Global Notes for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, any other obligor upon the Notes, the Trustee or any agent of any of them from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or impair, as between the Depositary and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a beneficial owner of any Note. The Holder of a Global Note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Agent Members and Persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action that a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Notes.

(c)

Transfers of a Global Note shall be limited to transfers of such Global Note in whole, but, subject to the immediately succeeding sentence, not in part, to the Depositary, its successors or their respective nominees. Interests of beneficial owners in a Global Note may not be transferred or exchanged for Physical Notes unless (i) the Company has consented thereto in writing, or such transfer or exchange is made pursuant to the

next sentence, and (ii) such transfer or exchange is in accordance with the applicable rules and procedures of the Depositary and the provisions of Section 305 and Section 313. Subject to the limitation on issuance of Physical Notes set forth in Section 313(3), Physical Notes shall be transferred to all beneficial owners in exchange for their beneficial interests in the relevant Global Note, if (i) the Depositary notifies the Company at any time that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the Global Notes and a successor depositary is not appointed within 120 days; (ii) the Depositary ceases to be registered as a “Clearing Agency” under the Exchange Act and a successor depositary is not appointed within 120 days; (iii) the Company, at its option, notifies the Trustee in writing that it elects to cause the issuance of Physical Notes; or (iv) an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Notes and the Trustee has received a written request from the Depositary to issue Physical Notes.

(d)

In connection with any transfer or exchange of a portion of the beneficial interest in any Global Note to beneficial owners for Physical Notes pursuant to Section 312(c), the Note Registrar shall record on its books and records the date and a decrease in the principal amount of such Global Note in an amount equal to the beneficial interest in the Global Note being transferred, and the Company shall execute, and upon receipt of an Authentication Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, one or more Physical Notes of like principal amount of authorized denominations.

(e)

In connection with a transfer of an entire Global Note to beneficial owners for Physical Notes pursuant to Section 312(c), the applicable Global Note shall be deemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Company shall execute, and upon receipt of an Authentication Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, to each beneficial owner identified by the Depositary, in exchange for its beneficial interest in the applicable Global Note, an equal aggregate principal amount of Rule 144A Physical Notes (in the case of any Rule 144A Global Note) or Regulation S Physical Notes (in the case of any Regulation S Global Note), as the case may be, of authorized denominations.

(f)

The transfer and exchange of a Global Note or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with this Indenture (including applicable restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 313) and the procedures therefor of the Depositary. Any beneficial interest in one of the Global Notes that is transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in a different Global Note will, upon transfer, cease to be an interest in such Global Note and become an interest in the other Global Note and, accordingly, will thereafter be subject to all transfer restrictions, if any, and other procedures applicable to beneficial interests in such other Global Note for as long as it remains such an interest. A transferor of a beneficial interest in a Global Note shall deliver to the Note Registrar a written order given in accordance with the Depositary’s procedures containing information regarding the participant account of the Depositary to be credited with a beneficial interest in the relevant Global Note. Subject to Section 313, the Note Registrar shall, in accordance with such instructions, instruct the Depositary to credit to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in such Global Note and to debit the account of the Person making the transfer the beneficial interest in the Global Note being transferred.

(g)

Any Physical Note delivered in exchange for an interest in a Global Note pursuant to Section 312(c) shall, unless such exchange is made on or after the Resale Restriction Termination Date applicable to such Note and except as otherwise provided in Section 203 and Section 313, bear the Private Placement Legend.

(h)

Notwithstanding the foregoing, through the Restricted Period, a beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Note may be held only through designated Agent Members holding on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream unless delivery is made in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 313.

(i)

The Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to any beneficial owner in a Global Note, a participant, an indirect participant in the Depositary or other Person with respect to the accuracy of the records of the applicable Depositary or their respective nominees or of any participant, with respect to any ownership interest in the Notes or with respect to the delivery to any participant, indirect participant, beneficial owner or other Person (other than the Depositary) of any notice (including any notice of redemption) or the payment of any amount, under or with respect to such Notes. All notices and communications to be given to the Holders and all payments to be made to Holders under the Notes and this Indenture shall be given or made only to or upon the order of the registered holders (which shall be the Depositary or its nominee in the case of a Global Note). The rights of beneficial owners in a Global Note shall be exercised only through the Depositary, subject to the applicable procedures. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the Depositary with respect to their members, participants and any beneficial owners. The Trustee shall be entitled to deal with the Depositary, and any nominee thereof, that is the registered holder of any Global Note for all purposes of this Indenture relating to such Global Note (including the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest, and the giving of instructions or directions by or to the owner or holder of a beneficial ownership interest in such Global Note) as the sole holder of such Global Note and shall have no obligations to the beneficial owners thereof. The Trustee shall not have any responsibility or liability for the records of any such depositary, including records in respect of beneficial ownership interests in respect of any such Global Note, for any transactions between the Depositary and any participant or between or among the Depositary, any such participant and/or any holder or owner of a beneficial interest in such Global Note, or for any transfers of beneficial interests in any such Global Note.

(j)

The Trustee 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 Depositary participants or beneficial owners of interests in any Global Notes) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof. The Trustee shall not have any responsibility or liability for any actions taken or not taken by the Depositary.

(k)

The protections afforded to the Trustee under this Section 312 shall apply to the Trustee acting in each of its capacities hereunder, including, without limitation, as Paying Agent, Registrar and transfer agent.

Section 313. Special Transfer Provisions.

(1) Transfers to Non-U.S. Persons. The following provisions shall apply with respect to the registration of any proposed transfer of a Note that is a Restricted Security to any Non-U.S. Person: The Note Registrar shall register such transfer if it complies with all other applicable requirements of this Indenture (including Section 305) and,

(a) if (x) such transfer is after the relevant Resale Restriction Termination Date with respect to such Note or (y) the proposed transferor has delivered to the Note Registrar and the Company and the Trustee a Regulation S Certificate and, unless otherwise agreed by the Company, an opinion of counsel, certifications and other information satisfactory to the Company, and

(b) if the proposed transferor is or is acting through an Agent Member holding a beneficial interest in a Global Note, upon receipt by the Note Registrar and the Company and the Trustee of (x) the certificate, opinion, certifications and other information, if any, required by clause (a) above and (y) written instructions given in accordance with the procedures of the Note Registrar and of the Depositary;

whereupon (i) the Note Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and (if the transfer does not involve a transfer of any Outstanding Physical Note) a decrease in the principal amount of the relevant Global Note in an amount equal to the principal amount of the beneficial interest in the relevant Global Note to be transferred, and (ii) either (A) if the proposed transferee is or is acting through an Agent Member holding a beneficial interest in a relevant Regulation S Global Note, the Note Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of such Regulation S Global Note in an amount equal to the principal amount of the beneficial interest being so transferred or (B) otherwise the Company shall execute and (upon receipt of an Authentication Order) the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver one or more Physical Notes of like amount.

(2) Transfers to QIBs. The following provisions shall apply with respect to the registration of any proposed transfer of a Note that is a Restricted Security to a QIB (excluding transfers to Non-U.S. Persons): The Note Registrar shall register such transfer if it complies with all other applicable requirements of this Indenture (including Section 305) and,

(a) if such transfer is being made by a proposed transferor who has checked the box provided for on the form of such Note stating, or has otherwise certified to the Note Registrar and the Company and the Trustee in writing, that the sale has been made in compliance with the provisions of Rule 144A to a transferee who has signed the certification provided for on the form of such Note stating, or has otherwise certified to Note Registrar and the Company and the Trustee in writing, that it is purchasing such Note for its own account or an account with respect to which it exercises sole investment discretion and that it and any such account is a QIB within the meaning of Rule 144A, and is aware that the sale to it is being made in reliance on Rule 144A and acknowledges that it has received such information regarding the Company as it has requested pursuant to Rule 144A or has determined not to request such information and that it is aware that the transferor is relying upon its foregoing representations in order to claim the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A; and

(b) if the proposed transferee is an Agent Member, and the Note to be transferred consists of a Physical Note that after transfer is to be evidenced by an interest in a Global Note or consists of a beneficial interest in a Global Note that after the transfer is to be evidenced by an interest in a different Global Note, upon receipt by the Note Registrar of written instructions given in accordance with the Depositary’s and the Note Registrar’s procedures, whereupon the Note

Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of the transferee Global Note in an amount equal to the principal amount of the Physical Note or such beneficial interest in such transferor Global Note to be transferred, and the Trustee shall cancel the Physical Note so transferred or reflect on its books and records the date and a decrease in the principal amount of such transferor Global Note, as the case may be.

(3) Limitation on Issuance of Physical Notes. No Physical Note shall be exchanged for a beneficial interest in any Global Note, except in accordance with Section 312 and this Section 313.

A beneficial owner of an interest in a Regulation S Global Note shall not be permitted to exchange such interest for a Physical Note until a date, which must be after the end of the Restricted Period, on which the Company receives a certificate of beneficial ownership substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C from such beneficial owner (a “Certificate of Beneficial Ownership”). Such date, as it relates to a Regulation S Global Note, is herein referred to as the “Regulation S Note Exchange Date.”

(4) Private Placement Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes not bearing the Private Placement Legend, the Note Registrar shall deliver Notes that do not bear the Private Placement Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes bearing the Private Placement Legend, the Note Registrar shall deliver only Notes that bear the Private Placement Legend unless (i) the requested transfer is after the relevant Resale Restriction Termination Date with respect to such Notes, (ii) upon written request of the Company after there is delivered to the Note Registrar an opinion of counsel (which opinion and counsel are satisfactory to the Company) to the effect that neither such legend nor the related restrictions on transfer are required in order to maintain compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act, (iii) with respect to a Regulation S Global Note (on or after the Regulation S Note Exchange Date with respect to such Regulation S Global Note) or Regulation S Physical Note, in each case with the agreement of the Company, or (iv) such Notes are sold or exchanged pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act.

(5) Other Transfers. The Note Registrar shall effect and register, upon receipt of a written request from the Company to do so, a transfer not otherwise permitted by this Section 313, such registration to be done in accordance with the otherwise applicable provisions of this Section 313, upon the furnishing by the proposed transferor or transferee of a written opinion of counsel (which opinion and counsel are satisfactory to the Company) to the effect that, and such other certifications or information as the Company may require (including, in the case of a transfer to an Accredited Investor (as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act), a certificate substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F) to confirm that, the proposed transfer is being made pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

A Note that is a Restricted Security may not be transferred other than as provided in this Section 313. A beneficial interest in a Global Note that is a Restricted Security may not be exchanged for a beneficial interest in another Global Note other than through a transfer in compliance with this Section 313.

(6) General. By its acceptance of any Note bearing the Private Placement Legend, each Holder of such a Note acknowledges the restrictions on transfer of such Note set forth in this Indenture and in the Private Placement Legend and agrees that it will transfer such Note only as provided in this Indenture.

The Note Registrar shall retain copies of all letters, notices and other written communications received pursuant to Section 312 or this Section 313 (including all Notes received for transfer pursuant to this Section 313). The Company shall have the right to require the applicable Note Registrar to deliver to the Company, at the Company’s expense, copies of all such letters, notices or other written communications at any reasonable time upon the giving of reasonable written notice to the Note Registrar.

In connection with any transfer of any Note, the Trustee, the Note Registrar and the Company shall be entitled to receive, shall be under no duty to inquire into, may conclusively presume the correctness of, and shall be fully protected in relying upon the certificates, opinions and other information referred to herein (or in the forms provided herein, attached hereto or to the Notes, or otherwise) received from any Holder and any transferee of any Note regarding the validity, legality and due authorization of any such transfer, the eligibility of the transferee to receive such Note and any other facts and circumstances related to such transfer.

exceed an amount equal to the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced, plus the aggregate amount of fees, underwriting discounts, premiums and other costs and expenses (including accrued and unpaid interest) Incurred or payable in connection with such refinancing; and (vi) if any Indebtedness is Incurred to refinance Indebtedness initially Incurred (or, Indebtedness Incurred to refinance Indebtedness initially Incurred) in reliance on any provision of Section 407(b) measured by a dollar amount, such dollar amount shall not be deemed to be exceeded (and such Refinancing Indebtedness shall be deemed permitted) to the extent the principal amount of such newly Incurred Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced, plus the aggregate amount of fees, underwriting discounts, premiums and other costs and expenses (including accrued and unpaid interest) Incurred or payable in connection with such refinancing.

(d)

For purposes of determining compliance with any provision of Section 407(b) (or any category of Permitted Liens described in the definition thereof) measured by a dollar amount or by reference to a percentage of LTM EBITDA, in each case, for the Incurrence of Indebtedness or Liens securing Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, the dollar equivalent principal amount of such Indebtedness Incurred pursuant thereto shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date that such Indebtedness was Incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first committed, in the case of revolving or deferred draw Indebtedness; provided that (x) the dollar equivalent principal amount of any such Indebtedness outstanding on the Issue Date shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the Issue Date, (y) if such Indebtedness is Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency (or in a different currency from such Indebtedness so being Incurred), and such refinancing would cause the applicable provision of Section 407(b) (or category of Permitted Liens) measured by a dollar amount or by reference to a percentage of LTM EBITDA, as applicable, to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such provision of Section 407(b) (or category of Permitted Liens) measured by a dollar amount or by reference to a percentage of LTM EBITDA, as applicable, shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such Refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed (i) the outstanding or committed principal amount (whichever is higher) of such Indebtedness being refinanced plus (ii) the aggregate amount of fees, underwriting discounts, premiums and other costs and expenses (including accrued and unpaid interest) Incurred or payable in connection with such refinancing and (z) the dollar equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on, at the Company’s option, (A) the Issue Date, (B) any date on which any of the respective commitments under the Secured Credit Facilities shall be reallocated between or among facilities or subfacilities thereunder, or on which such rate is otherwise calculated for any purpose thereunder, or (C) the date of such Incurrence. The principal amount of any Indebtedness Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if Incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such respective Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

(e)

Notwithstanding anything in this Section 407 or the Indenture to the contrary, the aggregate amount of Indebtedness constituting Consolidated Secured Indebtedness Incurred by the Parent Guarantor and its Restricted Subsidiaries pursuant to clauses (a), (b)(i) (provided that the restriction set forth in this clause (e) shall not apply to Indebtedness in an amount up to $30.0 million Incurred under clause (b)(iv)(x)(B) of this Section 407), (b)(iii), (b)(ix), (b)(x), (b)(xi) and (b)(xiii) of this Section 407 shall not exceed $2.0 billion at any one time outstanding.

(A) first, either (I) to reduce, prepay, repay, redeem or purchase (x) Priority Lien Obligations of the Company or any Guarantor (including Indebtedness under the ABL Credit Agreement), (y) Parity Lien Obligations (including the Notes) or (z) if the assets or property disposed of in the Asset Disposition were not Collateral, unsecured Indebtedness, any Indebtedness of a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary or any Indebtedness of the Parent Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary that is secured by a Lien on assets that do not constitute Collateral, in each case, within 365 days from the later of the date of such Asset Disposition and the date of receipt of such Net Available Cash, or (II) [reserved];

(B) second, to the extent of the balance of such Net Available Cash after application in accordance with clause (A) above (such balance, the “Excess Proceeds”), to make an offer to purchase Notes and (to the extent the Parent Guarantor or such Restricted Subsidiary elects, or is required by the terms thereof) to purchase, redeem, prepay or repay any other Priority Lien Obligations or Parity Lien Obligations of the Parent Guarantor or a Restricted Subsidiary, pursuant and subject to Section 411(b) and Section 411(c) and the agreements governing such other Indebtedness; and

(C) third, to the extent of the balance of such Net Available Cash after application in accordance with clauses (A) and (B) above, to fund (to the extent consistent with any other applicable provision of this Indenture) any general corporate purpose (including but not limited to the repurchase, repayment or other acquisition or retirement of any Subordinated Obligations or the making of other Restricted Payments);

provided, however, that (1) in connection with any prepayment, repayment, redemption or purchase of Indebtedness pursuant to clause (A)(I) or (B) above, the Parent Guarantor or such Restricted Subsidiary will cause the related loan commitment (if any) to be permanently reduced in an amount equal to the principal amount so prepaid, repaid or purchased and (2) [reserved];

provided, further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the Parent Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary consummates any sale, disposition or transfer of property or assets made in connection with or relating to any (in each case of the following (a) and (b), whether or not constituting an Asset Disposition) (a) Fixed Asset Receivables, or (b) any finance receivable that is not part of a forward flow arrangement entered into in the ordinary course of business or consistent with past practice (or with respect to Foreign Subsidiaries any such changes as required by or customary under local law or business practice), the Parent Guarantor (or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) shall first apply an amount equal to 100.0% of the net cash proceeds from such sale, disposition or transfer to reduce, prepay, repay, redeem or purchase Parity Lien Obligations (including the Notes) pursuant to clause (A) above (and for the avoidance of doubt any other permitted or required uses of proceeds referenced in clause (A) shall not be permitted with respect to any such transaction).

Notwithstanding the foregoing provision in Section 411(a)(iii), to the extent that repatriating any or all of the Net Available Cash from any Asset Disposition by a Foreign Subsidiary (x) would result in material adverse tax consequences to the Parent Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries or (y) is prohibited or delayed by applicable local law, rule or regulation or by applicable organizational documents or any agreement from being repatriated to the United States (in the case of the foregoing clauses (x) and (y), as reasonably determined by the Company in good faith which determination shall be conclusive), the portion of such Net Available Cash so affected will not be required to be applied in compliance with Section 411(a)(iii), and such amounts may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary and may be used by such Foreign Subsidiary for any purpose not in violation of this Indenture; provided that, in the case of this clause (y), the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to take all actions reasonably required by the applicable local law, rule or regulation or applicable organizational impediments or other impediment to permit such repatriation, and if such repatriation of any of such affected Net Available Cash can be achieved such repatriation will be promptly effected and such repatriated Net Available Cash will be applied (whether or not repatriation actually occurs) in compliance with Section 411(a)(iii). The time periods set forth in this Section 411 shall not start until such time as the Net Available Cash may be repatriated whether or not such repatriation actually occurs. Notwithstanding the foregoing provision in Section 411(a)(iii), to the extent the Net Available Cash from any Asset Disposition are attributable to an Asset Disposition made by a non-Wholly Owned Subsidiary, the amount of such Net Available Cash required to be applied shall not exceed the lesser of (x) an amount corresponding to the proportionate ownership interests in such non-Wholly Owned Subsidiary held by the Parent Guarantor or any Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary and (y) the amount corresponding to the amount of distributions permitted to be made from such non-Wholly Owned Subsidiary to the Parent Guarantor or its direct or indirect parent entity that is a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, for such purposes at the time such prepayment is required to be made.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 411, the Parent Guarantor and the Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be required to apply any Net Available Cash or equivalent amount in accordance with this Section 411 except to the extent that the aggregate Net Available Cash from all Asset Dispositions or equivalent amount that is not applied in accordance with this Section 411 exceeds the greater of (x) $30.0 million and (y) 2.50% of LTM EBITDA. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and/or other Indebtedness of the Parent Guarantor or a Restricted Subsidiary validly tendered and not withdrawn (or otherwise subject to purchase, redemption or repayment) in connection with an offer pursuant to clause (iii)(B) above exceeds the Excess Proceeds, the Excess Proceeds will be apportioned between such Notes and such other Indebtedness of the Parent Guarantor or a Restricted Subsidiary, with the portion of the Excess Proceeds payable in respect of such Notes to equal the lesser of (x) the Excess Proceeds amount multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the outstanding principal amount of such Notes and the denominator of which is the sum of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes and the outstanding principal amount of the relevant other Indebtedness of the Parent Guarantor or a Restricted Subsidiary, and (y) the aggregate principal amount of Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn.

For the purposes of Section 411(a)(ii), the following are deemed to be cash: (1) Temporary Cash Investments and Cash Equivalents; (2) the assumption of Indebtedness or other liability (contingent or otherwise) of the Parent Guarantor (other than Disqualified Stock of the Parent Guarantor ) or any Restricted Subsidiary and the release of the Parent Guarantor or such Restricted Subsidiary from all liability on payment of the principal amount of such Indebtedness or other liability in connection with such Asset Disposition; (3) Indebtedness or other liability (contingent or otherwise) of any Restricted Subsidiary that is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such Asset Disposition, to the extent that the Parent Guarantor and each other Restricted Subsidiary are released from any Guarantee of payment of the principal amount of such Indebtedness or other liability in connection with such Asset Disposition; (4) securities received by the Parent Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary from the transferee that are convertible by the Parent Guarantor or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash within 180 days; (5) consideration consisting of Indebtedness of the Parent Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary; (6) Additional Assets; and (7) any Designated Noncash Consideration received by the Parent Guarantor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in an Asset Disposition having an aggregate Fair Market Value, taken together with all other Designated Noncash Consideration received pursuant to this clause, not to exceed an aggregate amount at any time outstanding equal to the greater of (a) $310.0 million and (b) 25.0% of LTM EBITDA (with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Noncash Consideration being measured on the date a legally binding commitment for such disposition (or, if later, for the payment of such item) was entered into and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value).

Pending the final application of any such amount of Net Available Cash, the Parent Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary may temporarily reduce Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility, if any, or otherwise invest or utilize such Net Available Cash in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture.

(b) In the event of an Asset Disposition that requires the purchase of Notes pursuant to Section 411(a)(iii)(B), the Company will be required to purchase Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to an offer by the Company for the Notes (the “Asset Disposition Offer”) at a purchase price of 100.0% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase in accordance with the procedures (including prorating among the Notes and other applicable Indebtedness) set forth in Section 411(c). If the aggregate purchase price of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Asset Disposition Offer is less than the Net Available Cash allotted to the purchase of Notes, the remaining Net Available Cash will be available to the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries for use in accordance with Section 411(a)(iii)(A) (to repay other Priority Lien Obligations or Parity Lien Obligations of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary) or Section 411(a)(iii)(C) and the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero. The Company shall not be required to make an Asset Disposition Offer for Notes pursuant to this Section 411 if the Net Available Cash available therefor (after application of the proceeds as provided in Section 411(a)(iii)(A)) is less than the greater of (x) $30.0 million and (y) 2.50% of LTM EBITDA for any particular Asset Disposition (which lesser amounts shall be carried forward for purposes of determining whether an Asset Disposition Offer is required with respect to the Net Available Cash from any subsequent Asset Disposition). No Note will be repurchased in part if less than $2,000 in original principal amount of such Note would be left outstanding.

(c) The Company shall, not later than 45 days after the Company becomes obligated to make an Asset Disposition Offer pursuant to this Section 411, mail or otherwise deliver in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC a notice to each Holder with a copy to the Trustee stating: (1) that an Asset Disposition that requires the purchase of a portion of the Notes has occurred and that such Holder has the right (subject to the prorating described below) to require the Company to purchase a portion of such Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 100.0% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on a record date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date falling prior to or on the purchase date);

(2) the repurchase date (which shall be no earlier than 10 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed or delivered, except that such notice may be delivered more than 60 days prior to the purchase date if the purchase is delayed as provided in clause (5) of this Section 411(c)); (3) the instructions determined by the Company, consistent with this Section 411, that a Holder must follow in order to have its Notes purchased; (4) the amount of the Asset Disposition Offer which amount may be contingent upon the Net Available Cash remaining following the application of Net Available Cash pursuant to Section 411(a)(iii)(A) and (5) if such notice is mailed or delivered prior to the date the Net Available Cash attributable to such Asset Disposition is received, that such offer is conditioned upon receipt of such Net Available Cash and that the purchase date may, in the Company’s discretion, be delayed until such time as the Net Available Cash is received. If, upon the expiration of the period for which the Asset Disposition Offer remains open, the aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by Holders exceeds the amount of the Asset Disposition Offer, the Company shall select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Company so that only Notes in denominations of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof shall be purchased).

(d) The Company will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to this Section 411. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with provisions of this Section 411, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 411 by virtue thereof.

Section 412. Limitation on Transactions with Affiliates(b) . (a) The Parent Guarantor will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, enter into or conduct any transaction or series of related transactions (including the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of any property or the rendering of any service) with any Affiliate of the Parent Guarantor (an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate consideration in excess of the greater of (x) $125.0 million and (y) 10.0% of LTM EBITDA unless (i) the terms of such Affiliate Transaction are not materially less favorable to the Parent Guarantor or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that could be obtained at the time in a transaction with a Person who is not such an Affiliate and (ii) if such Affiliate Transaction involves aggregate consideration in excess of the greater of (x) $185.0 million and (y) 15.0% of LTM EBITDA, the terms of such Affiliate Transaction have been approved by a majority of the Board of Directors. For purposes of this Section 412(a), any Affiliate Transaction shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements set forth in this Section 412(a) if (x) such Affiliate Transaction is approved by a majority of the Disinterested Directors or (y) a fairness opinion is provided by a nationally recognized appraisal or investment banking firm with respect to such Affiliate Transaction.

(b)

The provisions of Section 412(a) will not apply to:

(i) any Restricted Payment Transaction;

(ii) (1) the entering into, maintaining or performance of any employment or consulting contract, collective bargaining agreement, benefit plan, program or arrangement, related trust agreement or any other similar arrangement for or with any current or former management member, employee, officer, director, independent contractor or consultant of or to the Parent Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary heretofore or hereafter entered into in the ordinary course of business, including vacation, health, insurance, deferred compensation, severance, retirement, savings or other similar plans, programs or arrangements, (2) payments, compensation, performance of indemnification or contribution obligations, the making or cancellation of loans, advances and guarantees in the ordinary course of business to any such management members, employees, officers, directors, independent contractor or consultants, (3) any issuance, grant or award of stock,

(iii) any transaction between or among any of the Parent Guarantor or one or more Restricted Subsidiaries, or one or more Receivables Subsidiaries;

(v) any transaction in the ordinary course of business on terms that are fair to the Parent Guarantor and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the reasonable determination of the Board of Directors or senior management of the Parent Guarantor, or are not materially less favorable to the Parent Guarantor or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that could be obtained at the time in a transaction with a Person who is not an Affiliate of the Parent Guarantor;

(vi) any transaction in the ordinary course of business, or approved by a majority of the Board of Directors, between the Parent Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary and any Affiliate of the Parent Guarantor controlled by the Parent Guarantor that is a joint venture or similar entity;

(vii) the Transactions, all transactions in connection therewith (including but not limited to the financing thereof), and all fees and expenses paid or payable in connection with the Transactions, including all transactions entered into in connection with the Lexmark Financing Commitments;

(viii) any issuance or sale of Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Parent Guarantor or any capital contribution to the Parent Guarantor;

(ix) any investment by any Affiliate of the Parent Guarantor in securities or term loans of the Parent Guarantor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (and payment of out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any such Affiliate in connection therewith) so long as such securities or term loans are being offered generally to investors (other than Affiliates of the Parent Guarantor) on the same or more favorable terms;

(x) any transaction with any Person that is an Affiliate of the Parent Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary that would constitute an Affiliate Transaction solely because the Parent Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary owns (directly or indirectly) an equity interest in, or controls (including pursuant to any management agreement or otherwise), such Person;

(xi) transactions with joint ventures for the purchase or sale of goods, equipment and services entered into in the ordinary course of business;

(xii) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers or purchasers or sellers of goods or services, in each case, in the ordinary course of business and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture, that are fair to the Parent Guarantor and its Restricted Subsidiaries as determined in good faith by the Parent Guarantor;

(xiii) transactions between or among the Parent Guarantor and its Restricted Subsidiaries and any Person, a director of which is also a director of the Parent Guarantor, so long as (1) such director abstains from voting as a director of the Parent Guarantor, as the case may be, on any matter involving such other Person and (2) such Person is not an Affiliate of the Parent Guarantor for any reason other than such director’s acting in such capacity;

(xiv) intercompany transactions undertaken in good faith for the purpose of improving the consolidated tax efficiency of the Parent Guarantor and its Restricted Subsidiaries and/or any other Subsidiaries of the Parent Guarantor, and not for the purpose of circumventing any covenant set forth herein;

Section 413. Limitation on Liens. The Parent Guarantor shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist any Lien (the “Initial Lien”) (other than Permitted Liens) on any of its property or assets (including Capital Stock of any other Person), whether owned on the date of this Indenture or thereafter acquired, securing any Indebtedness, provided that, the Parent Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary may create any Initial Lien (i) upon any property or assets that are not at such time Collateral in order to secure any Priority Lien Obligations or Parity Lien Obligations, so long as it concurrently grants a first-priority Lien upon such property or assets that would constitute Fixed Asset Collateral or a second-priority Lien upon such property or assets that would constitute Current Asset Collateral, in each case as security for the Notes and the Note Guarantees, such that the property or assets subject to such Initial Lien will constitute Collateral under this Indenture and the Security Documents (other than customary liens on cash collateral in connection with the ABL Credit Agreement and other revolving credit facilities), and (ii) upon any property or assets that constitute Collateral, so long as such Initial Lien has junior priority on such Collateral relative to the Notes and the Note Guarantees, subject in each case, to local law limitations and Permitted Liens.

Any such Lien thereby created in favor of the Notes or any such Note Guarantee will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon (i) the release and discharge of the Initial Lien to which it relates, (ii) in the case of any such Lien in favor of any such Note Guarantee, upon the termination and discharge of such Note Guarantee in accordance with the terms of Section 1303 or (iii) any sale, exchange or transfer (other than a transfer constituting a transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or Parent Guarantor that is governed by Section 501) to any Person not an Affiliate of the Parent Guarantor of the property or assets secured by such Initial Lien, or of all of the Capital Stock held by the Parent Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary in, or all or substantially all the assets of, any Restricted Subsidiary creating such Initial Lien.

Section 414. Future Guarantors. (a) If, at any time after the Issue Date, any existing or future (a) Wholly Owned Domestic Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent Guarantor (other than any Excluded Subsidiary) guarantees any Indebtedness for borrowed money with an aggregate principal amount in excess of $250.0 million (any such Indebtedness, “Material Indebtedness”) measured individually or (b) any Foreign Subsidiary guarantees Indebtedness of the Company or any Guarantor under the TLB Credit Agreement (including any newly-acquired Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent Guarantor that has Incurred such Indebtedness for borrowed money or entered into such documentation at the time of acquisition) other than (1) Indebtedness in connection with Qualified Receivables Transactions or Third-Party Vendor Financing Programs or (2) intercompany Indebtedness, then such Restricted Subsidiary shall, within 30 days from Incurring such Indebtedness, from entering into such documentation or after such acquisition, as applicable, become a Guarantor of the Notes, execute a Guarantor Supplemental Indenture and deliver an Officer’s Certificate and opinion of counsel. The Company may otherwise elect at any time to have any Restricted Subsidiary become a Guarantor, in which case, the Company shall cause such Restricted Subsidiary to execute and deliver to the Trustee a Guarantor Supplemental Indenture pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary shall become a Guarantor under this Indenture providing for a Note Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary on the same terms and conditions as those set forth in this Indenture and applicable to the other Guarantors.

(b) Each Person that becomes a Guarantor shall also become a party to the applicable Security Documents and shall as promptly as practicable execute and deliver such security instruments, financing statements, mortgages, deeds of trust and other related real estate deliverables (in substantially the same form as those executed and delivered with respect to the Collateral on the Issue Date or on the date first delivered in the case of Collateral delivered after the Issue Date (to the extent, and substantially in the form, delivered on the Issue Date or the date first delivered, as applicable (but no greater scope)) as may be necessary to vest in the Collateral Agent a perfected first-priority security interest (subject to Permitted Liens) in properties and assets that constitute Fixed Asset Collateral and a perfected second-priority security interest (subject to Permitted Liens) in properties and assets that constitute Current Asset Collateral, in either case, as security for such Guarantor’s Note Guarantee and as may be necessary to have such property or assets added to the Collateral as required under the Security Documents and this Indenture, and thereupon all provisions of this Indenture relating to the Collateral shall be deemed to relate to such properties and assets to the same extent and with the same force and effect.

Section 415. Purchase of Notes Upon a Change of Control. (a) If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem the Notes pursuant to Article X, Noteholders will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part in an integral multiple of $1,000 of such Noteholder’s Notes (provided that no Note will be purchased in part if the remaining principal amount of such Note would be less than $2,000) pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”) on the terms set forth in this Indenture. In the Change of Control Offer, the Company will be required to offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased, to but excluding the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, or, at the Company’s option, prior to any Change of Control, but after the public announcement of the transaction or transactions that constitutes or may constitute a Change of Control Triggering Event, the Company will be required to send a notice to Noteholders describing the transaction or transactions that constitute or may constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase the Notes on the date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), pursuant to the procedures required by this Indenture and described in such notice. The notice shall, if sent prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on the Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to the payment date specified in the notice. The Company must comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 of the Exchange Act and any other securities

laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 415, the Company will be required to comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 415 by virtue of such conflicts.

(b)

On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company will be required, to the extent lawful, to (i) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; (ii) deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and (iii) 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 of Notes being purchased.

(c)

The Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control Triggering Event if 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 Company and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer.

(d)

A Change of Control 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 that if fully performed would result in a Change of Control Triggering Event is in effect at the time of making of the Change of Control Offer.

(e)

The Company will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to this Section 415. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with provisions of this Section 415, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 415 by virtue thereof.

(f)

If Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in a Change of Control Offer and the Company, or any other Person making such Change of Control Offer, purchases all of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Company will have the right, upon notice given not more than 30 days following such purchase pursuant to such Change of Control Offer, to redeem all of the Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased, plus 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 relevant Interest Payment Date falling prior to or on the Redemption Date).

Section 416. Suspension of Covenants on Achievement of Investment Grade Rating. (a) If on any day following the Issue Date (a) the Notes have Investment Grade Ratings from at least two Rating Agencies, and (b) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture (the occurrence of the events described in the foregoing clauses (a) and (b) being collectively referred to as a “Covenant Suspension Event”), then, beginning on that day (the “Suspension Date”) subject to the

100

provisions of Section 416(b), (i) the Note Guarantees of the Subsidiary Guarantors will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged and (ii) the covenants listed under Section 407, Section 409, Section 410, Section 411, Section 412, Section 414, Section 501(a)(iii), Section 501(a)(iv), and Article XIV (collectively, the “Suspended Covenants”) will be suspended. During any period that the foregoing covenants have been suspended, the Board of Directors may not designate any of its Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries unless such designation would have complied with Section 409 as if Section 409 would have been in effect during such period.

(b)

If on any subsequent date any of the relevant Rating Agencies downgrade the ratings assigned to the Notes below an Investment Grade Rating, the foregoing covenants will be reinstated as of and from the time at which the Company obtains actual knowledge of such rating decline (any such time, a “Reversion Time”). The period of time between the Suspension Date and the Reversion Time is referred to as the “Suspension Period.” Upon such reinstatement, all Indebtedness Incurred during the Suspension Period (or deemed Incurred in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction entered into during the Suspension Period) will be deemed to have been Incurred under the exception provided by Section 407(b)(iii). With respect to Restricted Payments made after any such reinstatement, the amount of Restricted Payments will be calculated as if Section 409 had been in effect prior to, but not during, the Suspension Period. For purposes of Section 411, upon the occurrence of the Reversion Time the amount of Net Available Cash not applied in accordance with such covenant will be deemed to be reset to zero. In addition, for purposes of Section 412, all agreements and arrangements entered into by the Parent Guarantor and any Restricted Subsidiary with an Affiliate of the Parent Guarantor during the Suspension Period prior to such Reversion Time will be deemed to have been entered into on or prior to the Issue Date, and for purposes of Section 410, all contracts entered into during the Suspension Period prior to such Reversion Time that contain any of the encumbrances or restrictions subject to such covenant will be deemed to have been existing on the Issue Date. The Company shall deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee notifying it of the commencement of any Suspension Period or the end of any Reversion Time; provided that the failure to notify the Trustee shall not be a Default or Event of Default under this Indenture. The Trustee shall not have any duty to (i) monitor the ratings of the Notes, (ii) determine or verify whether a Suspension Period has occurred or ended or monitor for any Covenant Suspension Event, or any Suspension Period or Reversion Time or determine the consequences thereof, or (iii) notify Holders of any of the foregoing.

(c)

During the Suspension Period, any reference in the definitions of “Permitted Liens” and “Unrestricted Subsidiary” to Section 407 or any provision thereof shall be construed as if such covenant were in effect during the Suspension Period.

Notwithstanding that the Suspended Covenants may be reinstated, no Default or Event of Default will be deemed to have occurred as a result of any actions taken by the Parent Guarantor or any Subsidiary (including for the avoidance of doubt any failure to comply with the Suspended Covenants) or other events that occurred during any Suspension Period (or upon termination of the Suspension Period or after that time arising out of events that occurred or actions taken during the Suspension Period) and the Parent Guarantor and any Subsidiary will be permitted, without causing a Default or Event of Default or breach of any kind under this Indenture, to honor, comply with or otherwise perform any contractual commitments or obligations entered into during a Suspension Period following a Reversion Time and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby.

101

(d)

The Company shall deliver promptly to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate notifying it of the commencement of any Suspension Date or the end of any Reversion Time; provided that the failure to so notify the Trustee shall not invalidate the occurrence of any Suspension Date or Reversion Time and shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default by the Company. The Trustee shall have no independent obligation to determine if a Suspension Period or Reversion Time has commenced or terminated or to notify Holders regarding the same.

Section 417. Limitation on Investments in Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture and the Security Documents to the contrary, the only transfer (whether pursuant to a disposition, Investment, Permitted Investment, Restricted Payment or otherwise) by the Parent Guarantor and the Restricted Subsidiaries permitted to be made in or to (or designation of) Unrestricted Subsidiaries shall be such transfers made in reliance on clause (xix)(A) in the definition of “Permitted Investment.”

(b) No Subsidiary of the Parent Guarantor may be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if it owns or exclusively licenses any Material Intellectual Property at the time of designation. None of the Parent Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary may transfer, assign or exclusively license any Material Intellectual Property (whether pursuant to a disposition, Investment, Permitted Investment, Restricted Payment or otherwise) to any Unrestricted Subsidiary. No Unrestricted Subsidiary shall at any time own (or hold exclusive license to) any Material Intellectual Property.

Section 418. Limitation on Investments in Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries.

Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture and the Security Documents to the contrary, the aggregate principal amount of any transfer or series of transfers (whether pursuant to a disposition, Investment, Permitted Investment, Restricted Payment or otherwise) by the Parent Guarantor and the Restricted Subsidiaries permitted to be made in or to (or designation of) Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries shall not exceed, in the aggregate, $370.0 million; for avoidance of doubt this Section 418 shall not apply to any investment in Lexmark or in any Subsidiary of Lexmark made on or that is existing on the Lexmark Acquisition Completion Date.

(ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction (and treating any Indebtedness that becomes an obligation of the Successor Company or any Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such transaction as having been Incurred by the Successor Company or such Restricted Subsidiary at the time of such transaction), no Default or Event of Default will have occurred and be continuing;

(iii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, either (A) the Parent Guarantor (or, if applicable, the Successor Company with respect thereto) could Incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to Section 407(a) or (B) the Consolidated Coverage Ratio of the Parent Guarantor (or, if applicable, the Successor Company with respect thereto) would equal or exceed the Consolidated Coverage Ratio of the Parent Guarantor immediately prior to giving effect to such transaction;

(iv) each Guarantor (other than (x) any Guarantor that will be released from its obligations under its Note Guarantee in connection with such transaction and (y) any party to any such consolidation or merger) shall have delivered a supplemental indenture or other document or instrument confirming its Note Guarantee (other than any Note Guarantee that will be discharged or terminated in connection with such transaction);

(v) to the extent any property or assets of the Successor Company are property or assets of the type that would constitute Collateral under the Security Documents, the Successor Company will take such action as may be reasonably necessary or required to cause such property and assets to be made subject to a Lien securing the Notes pursuant to this Indenture and the Security Documents in the manner and to the extent required by this Indenture or any of the Security Documents and shall take all reasonably necessary action so that such Lien is perfected, preserved and protected to the extent required by this Indenture and the Security Documents;

(vi) the Collateral owned by or sold, assigned, conveyed, leased, transferred or otherwise disposed of to the Successor Company shall (a) continue to constitute Collateral under this Indenture and the Security Documents, (b) be subject to the Lien in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of itself, the Trustee and the holders of the Notes and (c) not be subject to any Lien other than Permitted Liens or other Liens as permitted under Section 413; and

(vii) the Company will have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each to the effect that such consolidation, merger or transfer complies with the provisions described in this Section 501(a); provided that (x) in giving such opinion such counsel may rely on an Officer’s Certificate as to compliance with the foregoing clauses (ii) and (iii) and as to any matters of fact, and (y) no Opinion of Counsel will be required for a consolidation, merger or transfer described in Section 501(b).

Any Indebtedness that becomes an obligation of the Parent Guarantor (or, if applicable, the Successor Company with respect thereto) or any Restricted Subsidiary (or that is deemed to be Incurred by any Restricted Subsidiary that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary) as a result of any such transaction undertaken in compliance with this Section 501, and any Refinancing Indebtedness with respect thereto, shall be deemed to have been Incurred in compliance with Section 407.

(b)

Clauses (ii) and (iii) of Section 501(a) will not apply to any transaction in which the Company or the Parent Guarantor consolidates or merges with or into or transfers all or substantially all its properties and assets to (x) an Affiliate incorporated or organized for the purpose of reincorporating or reorganizing the Company or the Parent Guarantor in another jurisdiction or changing its legal structure to a corporation, limited liability company or other entity or (y) a Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent Guarantor so long as all assets of the Parent Guarantor and the Restricted Subsidiaries

103

immediately prior to such transaction (other than Capital Stock of such Restricted Subsidiary) are owned by such Restricted Subsidiary and its Restricted Subsidiaries immediately after the consummation thereof. Section 501(a) will not apply to any transaction in which any Restricted Subsidiary consolidates with, merges into or transfers all or part of its assets to the Company or the Parent Guarantor.

Section 502. Successor Company Substituted. Upon any transaction involving the Company or the Parent Guarantor, as the case may be, in accordance with Section 501 in which the Company or the Parent Guarantor, as the case may be, is not the Successor Company, the Successor Company will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company or the Parent Guarantor, as the case may be, under the Note Documents, and thereafter the predecessor Company shall be relieved of all obligations and covenants under the Note Documents, except that the predecessor Company or the Parent Guarantor, as the case may be, in the case of a lease of all or substantially all its assets will not be released from the obligation to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes.

ARTICLE VI

REMEDIES

Section 601. Events of Default. An “Event of Default” means the occurrence of the following:

(i) a default in any payment of interest on any Note when due, continued for 30 consecutive days;

(ii) a default in the payment of principal of any Note when due, whether at its Stated Maturity, upon optional redemption, upon required repurchase, upon declaration of acceleration or otherwise;

(iii) the failure by the Company or the Parent Guarantor to comply with their obligations under Section 501(a);

(iv) the failure by the Company to comply for 30 consecutive days after the notice specified in the penultimate paragraph of this Section 601 with any of its obligations under Section 415 (other than a failure to purchase the Notes);

(v) the failure by the Parent Guarantor to comply for (x) 120 consecutive days after the notice specified in the penultimate paragraph of this Section 601 with any of its obligations under Section 405 or (y) 60 consecutive days after the notice specified in the penultimate paragraph of this Section 601 with its other agreements contained in a Note Document;

(vi) the failure by any Guarantor to comply for 60 consecutive days after the notice specified in the penultimate paragraph of this Section 601 with its obligations under its Note Guarantee;

104

million and (y) 15.0% of LTM EBITDA, or, in each case, its foreign currency equivalent; provided that no Default or Event of Default will be deemed to occur with respect to any such Indebtedness that is paid or otherwise acquired or retired (or for which such failure to pay or acceleration is waived or rescinded) within 20 Business Days after such failure to pay or such acceleration (the “cross acceleration provision”);

(viii) the taking of any of the following actions by the Company or a Significant Subsidiary, pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:

(A) the commencement of a voluntary case;

(B) the consent to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case;

(D) the making of a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors;

(ix) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:

(A) is for relief against the Company or any Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case;

(B) appoints a Custodian of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary or for any substantial part of its property; or

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

(x) the rendering of any final non-appealable judgment or decree for the payment of money in an amount (net of any insurance or indemnity payments in respect thereof) in excess of the greater of (x) $185.0 million and (y) 15.0% of LTM EBITDA, or, in each case, its foreign currency equivalent against the Parent Guarantor, the Company or a Significant Subsidiary that is not discharged, or bonded or insured by a third Person, if such judgment or decree remains outstanding for a period of 90 days following such judgment or decree and is not discharged, waived or stayed (the “judgment default provision”);

(xi) the failure of any Note Guarantee by a Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary, or any group of Guarantors that, taken together (as of the date of the latest audited consolidated financial statements of the Parent Guarantor and its Restricted Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, to be in full force and effect (except as contemplated by the terms thereof or of this Indenture) or the denial or disaffirmation in writing by any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Guarantors that, taken together (as of the date of the latest audited consolidated financial statements of the Parent Guarantor and its Restricted Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary of its or their obligations under this Indenture or any Note Guarantee (other than by reason of the termination of this Indenture or such Note Guarantee or the release of such Note Guarantee in accordance with such Note Guarantee or this Indenture), if such Default continues for 10 consecutive days;

105

(xii) any material provision of any Security Document or Intercreditor Agreements with respect to the Notes, at any time, (a) ceases to be in full force and effect for any reason other than in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements or (b) is declared invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, (y) the Company or any Guarantor contests in writing the validity or enforceability of any material provision of any Security Document or Intercreditor Agreements or (z) the Company or any Guarantor denies in writing that it has any further liability under this Indenture or any Security Document or Intercreditor Agreements or gives written notice to revoke or rescind any Security Document or the perfected first-priority or second-priority Liens, as applicable, created thereby with respect to the Notes, other than in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements; or

(xiii) any Security Document covering a material portion of the Collateral for any reason (other than pursuant to the terms thereof) ceases to create a valid and perfected first-priority or second-priority Lien, as applicable, on, and security interest in, any material Collateral covered thereby with respect to the Notes, subject to Permitted Liens, except to the extent that any such perfection or priority is not required pursuant to this Indenture and the Security Documents or results from the failure of the Collateral Agent to maintain possession of certificates actually delivered to it representing securities pledged under the Security Documents.

The foregoing will constitute Events of Default whatever the reason for any such Event of Default and whether it is voluntary or involuntary or is effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body.

The term “Bankruptcy Law” means Title 11, United States Code, or any similar Federal, state or foreign law for the relief of debtors, including Canadian Insolvency Laws. The term “Custodian” means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator, custodian or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law.

However, a Default under Section 601(iv), Section 601(v) or Section 601(vi) will not constitute an Event of Default until the Trustee or the Holders of at least 30.0% in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes notify the Company in writing of the Default and the Company does not cure such Default within 30 consecutive days after receipt of such notice. Such notice must specify the Default, demand that it be remedied and state that such notice is a “Notice of Default.” When a Default or an Event of Default is cured, it ceases. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above, a notice of Default may not be given with respect to any action taken, and reported publicly or to Holders, more than two years prior to such notice of Default.

The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days after knowledge by an officer of the Company, written notice in the form of an Officer’s Certificate of any Event of Default that under Section 601(vii) or Section 601(x), its status and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

Section 602. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 601(viii) or Section 601(ix) with respect to the Company or Parent Guarantor) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee by written notice to the Company, or the Holders of at least 30.0% in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, in either case specifying in such notice the respective Event of Default and that such notice is a “notice of acceleration,” may declare the principal of and accrued but unpaid interest on all the Notes to be due and payable. Upon the effectiveness of such a declaration, such principal and interest will be due and payable immediately.

106

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default specified in Section 601(viii) or Section 601(ix) with respect to the Company occurs and is continuing, the principal of and accrued but unpaid interest on all the Outstanding Notes will ipso facto become immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.

The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes by notice to the Company and the Trustee may rescind an acceleration and its consequences if (i) the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree, (ii) if all existing Events of Default have been cured or waived except non-payment of principal or interest that has become due solely because of such acceleration, and (iii) the Trustee has been paid all amounts due to it under this Indenture. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

Section 603. Other Remedies; Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may, but is not obligated under this Section 603 to, pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal of or interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture. If an Event of Default specified in Section 601(i) or 601(ii) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company for the whole amount then due and owing (together with interest on any unpaid interest to the extent lawful) and the amounts provided for in Section 707.

Section 604. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee may 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 and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes, its creditors or its property and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may vote on behalf of the Holders in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing similar functions, and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the compensation and reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 707.

No provision of this Indenture 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 thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

Section 605. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Notes. All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Notes may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

107

Section 606. Application of Money Collected. Any money or property collected by the Trustee and/or the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Article VI shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money or property on account of principal (or premium, if any) or interest, upon presentation of the Notes and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

First: on a pro rata basis, to the payment of all amounts due the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, the Paying Agent, and the Note Registrar and any other agent appointed hereunder and any predecessor trustee, collateral agent, paying agent, notes registrar or agent under this Indenture, including, without limitation, under Section 707 hereof, and the reasonably incurred expenses and disbursements of their agents and counsel;

Second: to the payment in full of the Obligations in respect of the Notes (including the Note Guarantees) (the amounts so applied to be distributed among the holders of such Obligations pro rata in accordance with the amounts of the obligations owed to them on the date of such distribution); and

Third: to the Company or such other Guarantor, as applicable, their successors or assigns, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

Section 607. Limitation on Suits. No Holder may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless:

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

(ii) Holders of at least 30.0% in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes have requested the Trustee in writing to pursue the remedy;

(iii) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee security and/or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense;

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

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

A Holder may not use this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of another Holder, to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder or to enforce any right under this Indenture except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all Holders.

Section 608. [Reserved].

Section 609. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture or any Note 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 the Company, any other obligor upon the Notes, the Trustee and the Holders shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, 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 had been instituted.

108

Section 610. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. 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 611. 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 VI 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 612. Control by Holders. The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee; provided that

(1) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, and

(2) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction.

However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or, subject to Section 701, that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to determine whether any direction is prejudicial to any Holder) or that would subject the Trustee to personal liability; provided, however, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction. Prior to taking any action under this Indenture, the Trustee and/or the 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 613. Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes may on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes waive any past Default hereunder and its consequences, except a Default

(1) in the payment of principal of or interest on any Note (which may only be waived with the consent of each Holder of Notes), or

(2) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof that pursuant to the second paragraph of Section 902 cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note.

Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. In case of any such waiver, the Company, any other obligor upon the Notes, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder and under the Notes, respectively.

Section 614. Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by such Holder’s acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or the Notes,

109

or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant. This Section 614 shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10.0% in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Note on or after the respective Stated Maturity or Interest Payment Dates expressed in such Note.

Section 615. Waiver of Stay, Extension or Usury Laws. The Company agrees (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law or any usury or other similar law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on the Notes contemplated herein or in the Notes or that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

Section 616. Debtor Relief Laws; Liquidated Damages Charges.

(a) If (x) the Parent Guarantor, the Company or any Significant Subsidiary (including, in each case, the Board of Directors or other governing body thereof) takes approval of any corporate resolution (in the case of a corporation) or entry into a written consent (in the case of any entity that is not a corporation), in each case, approving the filing of a voluntary petition under any Debtor Relief Laws, voluntarily consents to the institution of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings against it or voluntarily authorizes or consents to the filing by it of a petition (including, as applicable, application, assignment for the general benefit of creditors, or notice of intention to make a proposal) or answer or consent seeking reorganization or relief under applicable Debtor Relief Laws prior to October 15, 2029 (this clause (x), an “Approval Trigger Event”) or (y) unless clause (x) above has already occurred and triggered the Liquidated Damages Charge (as defined below) with respect to the Notes, any then Outstanding Notes become due and payable as a result of an acceleration thereof pursuant to Section 601(viii) that occurs prior to October 15, 2029, (this clause (y), an “Acceleration Trigger Event” and, together with any Approval Trigger Event, an “LDC Trigger Event”), in each case of clauses (x) and (y), the Company shall pay a liquidated damages charge (the “Liquidated Damages Charge”) (which shall be due and payable in full at the time the applicable LDC Trigger Event occurs) equal to (i) if such LDC Trigger Event occurs at any time after the Issue Date and prior to October 15, 2027, the Applicable Premium calculated as of the time such LDC Trigger Event, (ii) on or after October 15, 2027 and prior to October 15, 2028, 105.125% of the principal amount of the Notes that are Outstanding and subject to such LDC Trigger Event, and (iii) on or after October 15, 2028 and prior to October 15, 2029, 102.563% of the principal amount of the Notes that are outstanding and subject to such LDC Trigger Event.

(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph, it is understood and agreed that if an LDC Trigger Event occurs, the Liquidated Damages Charge will be due and payable in view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of damages of each applicable Holder as a result thereof. The Liquidated Damages Charge shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by each applicable Holder as the result of the applicable LDC Trigger Event and the Company, the Parent Guarantor and each other Guarantor agree that it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing.

110

(c) THE COMPANY, THE PARENT GUARANTOR AND EACH OTHER GUARANTOR EXPRESSLY WAIVE (TO THE FULLEST EXTENT IT MAY LAWFULLY DO SO) THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES CHARGE IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH LDC TRIGGER EVENT. The Company, Parent Guarantor and each other Guarantor expressly agree (to the fullest extent it may lawfully do so) that: (A) the Liquidated Damages Charge is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (B) the Liquidated Damages Charge shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (C) there has been a course of conduct between any Holder and the Company, Parent Guarantor and each other Guarantor giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Liquidated Damages Charge; and (D) the Company, Parent Guarantor and each other Guarantor shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph. The Company, Parent Guarantor and each other Guarantor expressly acknowledge that the agreement to pay the Liquidated Damages Charge to any Holders as herein described is a material inducement to the Holders to acquire the Notes.

(d) From and after the earliest date of any LDC Trigger Event, the Liquidated Damages Charge, or such other premium, as applicable, shall be deemed to be principal of the Notes and shall accrue interest thereon. The Liquidated Damages Charge, if any, shall also be payable (i) in the event the Obligations under the Indenture and the Notes (and/or the Indenture or any other Note Document) are satisfied, deemed satisfied or released by foreclosure (whether by power of judicial proceeding), deed in lieu of foreclosure and/or (ii) upon the satisfaction, deemed satisfaction, release, payment, restructuring, reorganization, replacement, reinstatement (including, without limitation, under a plan of reorganization or similar manner in any proceeding under Debtor Relief Laws), the rescission or deceleration of any acceleration of the Obligations under the Indenture and the Notes by the Company, defeasance or compromise of any of the Obligations under the Indenture and the Notes (and/or the Indenture or any other Note Document) in any proceeding under Debtor Relief Laws, foreclosure (whether by power of judicial proceeding or otherwise), deed in lieu of foreclosure, or the making of a distribution of any kind in any proceeding under Debtor Relief Laws to the Collateral Agent, for the account of the holders of the Notes, in full or partial satisfaction of the Obligations under the Indenture and the Notes.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising under Section 601(viii) with respect to the Company, all Outstanding Notes shall be due and payable immediately without further action or notice other than as provided under this Section 616.

ARTICLE VII

THE TRUSTEE

Section 701. Certain Duties and Responsibilities. (a) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default,

(1)

the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

(2)

in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on its part (as determined in a final non-appealable decision by a court of competent jurisdiction), as determined in a final non-appealable decision by a court of competent jurisdiction, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon

111

certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions that by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture, but need not verify the contents thereof or confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts, statements, opinions or conclusions stated therein.

(b)

In case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs.

(c)

No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee or the Collateral Agent from liability for its own grossly negligent action, its own grossly negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, as determined in a final non-appealable decision by a court of competent jurisdiction, except that (i) this Section 701(c) does not limit the effect of Section 701(a); (ii) the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer, unless it is proved that the Trustee was grossly negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts (as determined in a final non-appealable decision by a court of competent jurisdiction); and (iii) the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 612.

(d)

No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers.

(e)

The Trustee will have no obligation to calculate or verify the calculation of the accrued and unpaid interest or any premium payable on the Notes or the amount of any redemption price payable on the Notes.

(f)

Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 701 and Section 703.

(g)

The Trustee shall not be liable in respect of any payment (as to the correctness of amount, entitlement to receive or any other matters relating to payment) or notice effected by the Company or any Paying Agent or any records maintained by any Note Registrar with respect to the Notes.

(h)

If any party fails to deliver a notice relating to an event the fact of which, pursuant this Indenture, requires notice to be sent to the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively rely on its failure to receive such notice as reason to act as if no such event occurred.

(i)

Under no circumstances shall the Trustee be liable in its individual capacity for the obligations evidenced by the Notes.

112

Section 702. Notice of Defaults. If a Default occurs and is continuing for which a Trust Officer responsible for the administration of this Indenture has received written notice, the Trustee must mail within 90 days after it occurs, to all Holders as their names and addresses appear in the Note Register, notice of such Default hereunder known to the Trustee unless such Default shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that, except in the case of a Default in the payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, any Note, the Trustee may withhold notice if it in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Holders. The Trustee will not be deemed to have knowledge of any Defaults or Events of Default unless written notice of a Default or Event of Default has been delivered to and actually received by a Trust Officer at its corporate trust office specified in this Indenture and such notice references the Notes, the Company and this Indenture and states that it is a “Notice of Default.”

Section 703. Certain Rights of Trustee. Subject to the provisions of Section 701:

Section 709. Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility. There shall at all times be one (and only one) Trustee hereunder. The Trustee shall be a Person that is eligible pursuant to the TIA to act as such and has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50.0 million. If any such Person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of its supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 709 and to the extent permitted by the TIA, the combined capital and surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 709, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article VII.

116

Section 710. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor. No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article VII shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 711.

The Trustee may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Company. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 711 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may, at the expense of the Company, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

The Trustee may be removed at any time, upon 30 days prior written notice, by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes delivered to the Trustee and to the Company.

If at any time:

(1) the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 708 after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note for at least six months, or

(2) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 709 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Holder, or

(3) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,

then, in any such case, (A) the Company, upon 30 days prior written notice, may remove the Trustee, or (B) subject to Section 614, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note for at least six months may, on behalf of itself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee and shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 711. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 711, become the successor Trustee and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor Trustee shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 711, then, subject to Section 614, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note for at least six months may, on behalf of itself and all others similarly situated and at the expense of the Company, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee and each appointment of a successor Trustee to all Holders in the manner provided in Section 110. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee and the address of its Corporate Trust Office.

117

Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 710, the Company’s obligations under Section 707 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

Section 711. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee, every such successor Trustee so appointed shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request of the Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder.

Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to above.

No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article VII.

Section 712. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder; provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article VII, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Notes shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Notes so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Notes.

Section 713. Preferential Collection of Claims Against the Company. If and when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Company (or any other obligor upon the Notes), the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of the TIA regarding the collection of claims against the Company (or any such other obligor) or realizing on certain property received by it in respect of such claims.

Section 714. Appointment of Authenticating Agent. The Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent acceptable to the Company to authenticate such Notes. Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an instrument in writing signed by a Trust Officer, a copy of which instrument shall be promptly furnished to the Company. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, an Authenticating Agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication (or execution of a certificate of authentication) by the Trustee includes authentication (or execution of a certificate of authentication) by such Authenticating Agent. An Authenticating Agent has the same rights as any Note Registrar, Paying Agent or agent for service of notices and demands.

If it does, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent may, but need not, sign it. In signing or refusing to sign such amendment, supplement or waiver, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall each be entitled to receive, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the execution of such amendment, supplement or waiver is authorized or permitted or complies with this Indenture, that all conditions precedent to such amendment, supplement or waiver required by this Indenture have been complied with and that such amendment, supplement or waiver is a valid and binding agreement of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms.

Section 904. Revocation and Effect of Consents. Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder is a continuing consent by the Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Note or any Note that evidences all or any part of the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. Subject to the following paragraph of this Section 904, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to such Holder’s Note by written notice to the Trustee or the Company, received by the Trustee or the Company, as the case may be, before the date on which the Trustee receives an Officer’s Certificate from the Company certifying that the Holders of the requisite principal amount of Notes have consented (and not theretofore revoked such consent) to the amendment, supplement or waiver. The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any amendment, supplement or waiver as set forth in Section 108.

After an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder of Notes.

Section 905. [Reserved].

Section 906. Notation on or Exchange of Notes.

Alternatively, if the Company or the Trustee so determines, the Company in exchange for the Note shall issue and upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the Trustee shall authenticate a new Note that reflects the changed terms.

In case of any redemption of less than all of the Notes, the Company shall, at least two Business Days (but not more than 60 days (except that such notice may be delivered more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date if the Redemption Date is delayed as provided in Section 1009)), prior to the date on which notice is required to be delivered to Holders pursuant to Section 1005, notify the Trustee in writing of such Redemption Date and of the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed, but failure to so notify the Trustee shall not invalidate any notice given in accordance with Section 1005 and shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default by the Company.

Section 1004. Selection by Trustee of Notes to Be Redeemed. In the case of any partial redemption, selection of the Notes for redemption will be made by the Trustee on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee shall deem to be appropriate, and in the case of global notes, in accordance with the procedures of DTC, in integral multiples of $1,000, although no Note of $2,000 in original principal amount or less will be redeemed in part.

The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. On and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Notes shall relate, in the case of the Notes redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of the Notes that has been or is to be redeemed.

Section 1005. Notice of Redemption. Subject to the third paragraph of Section 110, notice of redemption or purchase as provided in Section 1001 shall be given electronically or, at the Company’s option, by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than 10 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date (except that such notice may be delivered more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date if such notice is issued in connection with the legal or covenant defeasance of Notes pursuant to Section 1201 or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the Notes pursuant to Section 1101, or if the Redemption Date is delayed as provided in Section 1009), to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed, at such Holder’s address appearing in the Note Register.

Any such notice shall state:

(1)

the expected Redemption Date,

(2)

the redemption price (or the formula by which the redemption price will be determined),

(3)

if less than all Outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the portion of the respective principal amounts) of the Notes to be redeemed,

(4)

that, on the Redemption Date, the redemption price will become due and payable upon each such Note, and that, unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment or the Paying Agent is prohibited from making such payment pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, interest thereon shall cease to accrue from and after said date, and

124

(5)

the place where such Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price.

In addition, if such redemption, purchase or notice is subject to satisfaction (or, waiver by the Company in its sole discretion) of one or more conditions precedent, as permitted by Section 1009, such notice shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Company’s discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Company in its 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 (or, in the Company’s sole determination, may not be) satisfied (or waived by the Company in its sole discretion) by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed.

The Company may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and the performance of the Company’s obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.

Notice of any redemption or purchase of Notes hereunder (or the selection of Notes in connection with a partial redemption) to be so redeemed or purchased at the election of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company’s request (made to the Trustee at least 15 days (or such shorter period as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee) prior to the Redemption Date), by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company. Any such request will set forth the information to be stated in such notice, as provided by this Section 1005.

The notice if delivered in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to give such notice by mail or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Note designated for redemption as a whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Note.

Section 1006. Deposit of Redemption Price. On or prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, the Company shall segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 403) an amount of money sufficient to pay the redemption price of, and any accrued and unpaid interest on, all the Notes or portions thereof which are to be redeemed on that date; provided, that, funds deposited with the Trustee or such Paying Agent after 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such due date shall be deemed deposited with the Trustee or such Paying Agent on the next Business Day thereafter.

Section 1007. Notes Payable on Redemption Date. Notice of redemption having been given as provided in this Article X, the Notes so to be redeemed shall (subject to the satisfaction or waiver by the Company of any applicable conditions precedent), on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the redemption price herein specified and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the redemption price or the Paying Agent is prohibited from paying the redemption price pursuant to the terms of this Indenture) such Notes shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of such Notes for redemption in accordance with such notice, such Notes shall be paid by the Company at the redemption price. Installments of interest whose Interest Payment Date is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Notes registered as such on the relevant Regular Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 307.

On and after any Redemption Date, if money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and any accrued and unpaid interest on Notes called for redemption shall have been made available in accordance with Section 1006, the Notes (or the portions thereof) called for redemption will cease to accrue interest and the only right of the Holders of such Notes (or portions thereof) will be to receive payment of

125

the redemption price of and, subject to the last sentence of the preceding paragraph, any accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes (or portions thereof) to the Redemption Date. If any Note (or portion thereof) called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate borne by the Note (or portion thereof).

Section 1008. Notes Redeemed in Part. Any Note that is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at the Place of Payment (with due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company duly executed by, the Holder thereof or its attorney duly authorized in writing) and the Company shall execute and (upon receipt of an Authentication Order) the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Note without service charge, a new Note or Notes, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Note so surrendered (or if the Note is a global note, an adjustment shall be made to the schedule attached thereto).

Section 1009. Optional Redemption.

At any time prior to October 15, 2027, the Company may, at its option and on one or more occasions, redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, upon notice as described in Section 1005, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the 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 falling on or prior to the Redemption Date.

On and after October 15, 2027, the Company may, at its option and on one or more occasions, redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, upon notice as described in Section 1005 at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, 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 on or prior to the Redemption Date, if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning on October 15 of each of the years indicated below:


Year	Redemption price
2027		105.125	%

In addition, until October 15, 2027, the Company may, at its option on one or more occasions, upon notice as described in Section 1005, redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes (including Additional Notes) issued under this Indenture at a redemption price (as calculated by the Company) equal to (i) 110.250% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, in an aggregate amount not exceeding the aggregate amount of one or more Equity Offerings to the extent the proceeds thereof are received by or contributed to the Company plus (ii) accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable Redemption Date, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record

126

The Company may provide in any redemption notice that payment of the redemption price and the performance of the Company’s obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.

Any redemption of Notes (including in connection with an Equity Offering) or notice thereof may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to the satisfaction (or, waiver by the Company in its sole discretion) of one or more conditions precedent, which may include consummation of any related Equity Offering or the occurrence of a Change of Control. If such redemption or notice is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice may state that, in the Company’s discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Company in its sole discretion), or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been (or, in the Company’s sole determination, may not be) satisfied (or waived by the Company in its sole discretion) by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date so delayed.

ARTICLE XII

DEFEASANCE OR COVENANT DEFEASANCE

Section 1201. The Company’s Option to Effect Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The Company may, at its option, at any time, elect to have terminated the obligations of the Company with respect to Outstanding Notes and the other Note Documents and to have terminated all of the obligations of the Guarantors with respect to the Note Guarantees, in each case, as set forth in this Article XII, and elect to have either Section 1202 or 1203 be applied to all of the Outstanding Notes (the “Defeased Notes”), upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in Section 1204. Either Section 1202 or Section 1203 may be applied to the Defeased Notes to any Redemption Date or the Stated Maturity of the Notes.

Section 1202. Defeasance and Discharge. Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 1201 of the option applicable to this Section 1202, the Company shall be deemed to have been released and discharged from its obligations with respect to the Defeased Notes and the Guarantors shall be deemed to have been released and discharged from their obligations with respect to the Note Guarantees on the date the relevant conditions set forth in Section 1204 are satisfied (hereinafter, “Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the Defeased Notes, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “Outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 1205 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (a) and (b) below, and the Company, and each of the Guarantors shall be deemed to have satisfied all other obligations under such Notes, Note Guarantees and this Indenture insofar as such Notes are concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following, which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (a) the rights of Holders of Defeased Notes to receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section 1204 and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of principal of and premium, if any, and interest on such Notes when such payments are due, (b) the Company’s obligations with respect to such Defeased Notes under Sections 304, 305, 306, 402, and 403, (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent hereunder, including the Trustee’s and the Collateral Agent’s rights (and the Company’s obligations) under Section 707 and Section 1407(z), as applicable, and (d) this Article XII. If the Company exercises its option under this Section 1202, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default with respect thereto. Subject to compliance with this Article XII, the Company may, at its option and at any time, exercise its option under this Section 1202 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 1203 with respect to the Notes.

129

Section 1203. Covenant Defeasance. Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 1201 of the option applicable to this Section 1203, (a) the Company shall be released from its obligations under any covenant or provision contained in Section 405, Section 407, Section 409 through 415 and the provisions of clauses (iii), (iv) and (v) of Section 501(a) shall not apply, and (b) the occurrence of any event specified in clause (iv), (v) (with respect to Section 405, Section 407 and Sections 409 through 415, inclusive), (vi), (vii), (viii) (with respect to Significant Subsidiaries), (ix) (with respect to Significant Subsidiaries), (x), (xi) or (xii) of Section 601 shall be deemed not to be or result in an Event of Default, in each case with respect to the Defeased Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not to be “Outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or Act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants or provisions, but shall continue to be deemed “Outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder. For this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the Outstanding Notes, the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant or provision, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or provision or by reason of any reference in any such covenant or provision to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 601, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Outstanding Notes shall be unaffected thereby.

Section 1204. Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The following shall be the conditions to application of either Section 1202 or Section 1203 to the Outstanding Notes:

(1)

The Company shall have irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee, in trust, money or U.S. Government Obligations, or a combination thereof, in amounts as will be sufficient (without reinvestment), to pay and discharge the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on the Defeased Notes issued by the Company to the Stated Maturity or relevant Redemption Date in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and the Notes (provided that if such redemption shall be pursuant to the third paragraph of Section 1009, (x) the amount of money or U.S. Government Obligations or a combination thereof that the Company must irrevocably deposit or cause to be deposited shall be determined using an assumed Applicable Premium calculated as of the date of such deposit, as calculated by the Company in good faith and (y) the Company must irrevocably deposit or cause to be deposited additional money in trust on the Redemption Date, as required by Section 1006, as necessary to pay the Applicable Premium as determined on such date);

(2)

No Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit;

(3)

Such deposit shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a Default or Event of Default under, this Indenture or any other material agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound;

(4)

In the case of an election under Section 1202, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that (x) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (y) 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 shall confirm that, the beneficial owners of the Outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such 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 Defeasance had not occurred;

130

(5)

In the case of an election under Section 1203, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the beneficial owners of the Outstanding 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; and

(6)

The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each to the effect that all conditions precedent provided for in this Section 1204 relating to either the Defeasance under Section 1202 or the Covenant Defeasance under Section 1203, as the case may be, have been complied with. In rendering such Opinion of Counsel, counsel may rely on an Officer’s Certificate as to compliance with the foregoing clauses (1), (2) and (3) of this Section 1204 or as to any matters of fact.

Section 1205. Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations to Be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 403, all money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or such other Person that would qualify to act as successor trustee under Article VII, collectively and solely for purposes of this Section 1205, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 1204 in respect of the Defeased 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 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, if any, and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

The Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall pay and indemnify the Trustee and its agents and hold them harmless against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the U.S. Government Obligations deposited by the Company pursuant to Section 1204, or the principal, premium, if any, and interest received in respect thereof, other than any such tax, fee or other charge that by law is for the account of the Holders of the Defeased Notes.

Anything in this Article XII to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver to the Company from time to time, upon Company Request, any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 1204 that, in the opinion of a nationally recognized accounting or investment banking firm expressed in a written certification thereof to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. Subject to Article VII, the Trustee shall not incur any liability to any Person by relying on such opinion.

Section 1206. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 1202 or 1203, 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 obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under this Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 1202 or 1203, as the case may be, until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money and U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 1202 or 1203, as the case may be; provided, however, that if the Company or any Guarantor makes any payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company or Guarantor, as the case may be, shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money and U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

131

Section 1207. Repayments to the Company. The Trustee shall pay to the Company upon Company Request any money held by it for the payment of principal or interest that remains unclaimed for two years after the Stated Maturity or the Redemption Date, as the case may be. After payment to the Company, Holders entitled to money must look to the Company for payment as general creditors unless an applicable abandoned property law designates another Person and all liability of the Trustee or Paying Agent with respect to such money shall thereupon cease.

ARTICLE XIII

NOTE GUARANTEES

Section 1301. Guarantees Generally.

(a) Guarantee of Each Guarantor. Each Guarantor, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, hereby jointly and severally, irrevocably and fully and unconditionally Guarantee, on a senior secured basis, the punctual payment when due, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all monetary obligations of the Company under this Indenture and the Notes, whether for principal of or interest on the Notes, expenses, indemnification or otherwise (all such obligations guaranteed by such Guarantors being herein called the “Guaranteed Obligations”).

The obligations of each Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under the Note Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance, preference, transfer at under value or unlawful financial assistance under applicable law, or being void or unenforceable under any law relating to insolvency of debtors or otherwise to reflect corporate benefit rules, thin capitalization rules, retention of title claims, laws on the preservation of share capital, limitations of corporate law, regulations or defenses affecting the rights of creditors generally or other limitations under applicable law which, among other things, might limit the amount that can be guaranteed by reference to the net assets and legal capital of the relevant Guarantor. The Note Guarantees will be further limited as required under the Agreed Security Principles. In the case of a Guarantor incorporated in England and Wales, constituting unlawful financial assistance within the meaning of sections 678 or 679 of the UK Companies Act 2006.

(b) Further Agreements of Each Guarantor. (i) Each Guarantor hereby agrees that (to the fullest extent permitted by law) its obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Company or any other Guarantor to the Holders, the Collateral Agent and the Trustee hereunder or thereunder, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, any release of any other Guarantor, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same, whether or not a notation concerning its Note Guarantee is made on any particular Note, or any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a Guarantor.

(ii)

Each Guarantor hereby waives (to the fullest extent permitted by law) the benefit of diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that (except as otherwise provided in Section 1303) its Note Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the

132

Notes, this Indenture and this Note Guarantee. Such Note Guarantee is a guarantee of payment and not of collection. Each Guarantor further agrees (to the fullest extent permitted by law) that, as between it, on the one hand, and the Holders of Notes and the Trustee and the Collateral Agent, on the other hand, subject to this Article XIII, (1) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed by its Note Guarantee may be accelerated as and to the extent provided in Article VI for the purposes of such Note Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed by such Note Guarantee, and (2) in the event of any acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article VI, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by such Guarantor in accordance with the terms of this Section 1301 for the purpose of such Note Guarantee. Neither the Trustee, the Collateral Agent nor any other Person shall have any obligation to enforce or exhaust any rights or remedies or to take any other steps under any security for the Guaranteed Obligations or against the Company or any other Person or any property of the Company or any other Person before the Trustee or the Collateral Agent is entitled to demand payment and performance by any or all Guarantors of their obligations under their respective Note Guarantees or under this Indenture.

(iii)

Until terminated in accordance with Section 1303, each Note Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Company for liquidation or reorganization, should the Company 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 Company’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 and performance of the Notes are, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee on such Notes, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent transfer” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance 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.

(c)

Each Guarantor that makes a payment or distribution under its Note Guarantee shall have the right to seek contribution from the Company or any non-paying Guarantor that has also Guaranteed the relevant Guaranteed Obligations in respect of which such payment or distribution is made, so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Note Guarantees.

(d)

Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Indenture and that its Note Guarantee, and the waiver set forth in Section 1305, are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

(e)

Each Guarantor, pursuant to its Note Guarantee, also hereby agrees to pay, jointly and severally, any and all out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or the Holders in enforcing any rights under its Note Guarantee.

133

Section 1302. Continuing Guarantees(f) . (a) Each Note Guarantee shall be a continuing Guarantee and shall (i) subject to Section 1303, remain in full force and effect until payment in full of the principal amount of all Outstanding Notes (whether by payment at maturity, purchase, redemption, defeasance, retirement or other acquisition) and all other Guaranteed Obligations then due and owing, unless earlier released or terminated, (ii) be binding upon such Guarantor, and (iii) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Trustee, the Holders and their permitted successors, transferees and assigns.

(b)

The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment which would otherwise have reduced or terminated the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder and under its Note Guarantee (whether such payment shall have been made by or on behalf of the Company, or by or on behalf of a Guarantor) is rescinded or reclaimed from any of the Holders upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of the Company, or any Guarantor or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

Section 1303. Release of Note Guarantees. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1302, Note Guarantees will be subject to termination and discharge under the circumstances described in this Section 1303. Any Guarantor will automatically and unconditionally be released from all obligations under its Note Guarantee, and such Note Guarantee shall thereupon terminate and be discharged and of no further force or effect: (i) concurrently with any direct or indirect sale or disposition (by merger or otherwise) of any Subsidiary Guarantor or any interest therein, or any other transaction, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture following which such Subsidiary Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent Guarantor; (ii) concurrently with the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of such Subsidiary Guarantor, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; (iii) in the case of any Wholly Owned Domestic Restricted Subsidiary that after the Issue Date is required to guarantee the Notes pursuant to Section 414, at any time such Guarantor is (or, substantially concurrently with the release of the Note Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor, will be) released from all of its obligations under its Guarantee of payment (or, if applicable, release from all of its obligations as a borrower) in respect of the Material Indebtedness that resulted in the obligation to guarantee the Notes (it being understood that a release subject to contingent reinstatement is still a release), and that if any such Guarantee is so reinstated, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall also be reinstated to the extent that such Guarantor would then be required to provide a Note Guarantee pursuant to Section 414; (iv) in the case of any Non-U.S. Guarantor, at any time such Subsidiary Guarantor is (or, substantially concurrently with the release of the Note Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor, will be) released from all of its obligations under its Guarantee of payment (or, if applicable, release from all of its obligations as a borrower) in respect of the TLB Facility (it being understood that a release subject to contingent reinstatement is still a release, and that if any such Guarantee is so reinstated, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall also be reinstated to the extent that such Guarantor would then be required to provide a Note Guarantee pursuant to Section 414); (v) upon the merger or consolidation of any Subsidiary Guarantor with and into the Company or another Guarantor that is the surviving Person in such merger or consolidation, or upon the liquidation of such Guarantor following the transfer of all of its assets to one of the Company or another Guarantor; (vi) such Guarantor is or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary; (vii) concurrently with any Guarantor becoming an Unrestricted Subsidiary; (viii) upon the occurrence of a Covenant Suspension Event; provided that after the Reversion Time, such Note Guarantee shall be reinstated to the extent required and within the time period provided under Section 414; (ix) in accordance with an enforcement action pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreements; (x) as described in Article IX; (xi) upon Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance of the Company’s obligations under, or satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Section 1101; or (xii) subject to Section 1302(b), upon payment in full of the aggregate principal amount of all Notes then Outstanding and all other Guaranteed Obligations then due and owing. The Note Guarantee of the Parent Guarantor will be released in the circumstances described in clauses (viii), (ix), (x), (xi) or (xii) above. In addition, the Company will have the right, upon

134

10 days’ notice to the Trustee (or such shorter period as agreed to by the Trustee), to cause any Subsidiary Guarantor that is not a primary obligor or guarantor under any outstanding Material Indebtedness to be unconditionally released from all obligations under its Note Guarantee, and such Note Guarantee shall thereupon terminate and be discharged and of no further force or effect.

Upon any such occurrence specified in this Section 1303, the Trustee shall execute any documents (subject to the review and approval of counsel to the Trustee) reasonably requested by the Company in order to evidence such release, discharge and termination in respect of such Note Guarantee and the Trustee will be entitled to receive and conclusively rely on an Officer’s Certificate that the execution of any such document, release, discharge and termination is authorized.

Section 1304. Guarantors May Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms(c) . Except as otherwise provided in this Section 1304, no Guarantor may sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets to, or consolidate, amalgamate or merge with or into another Person, other than the Company or another Guarantor, unless:

(1)

immediately after giving effect to that transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists; and

(2)

either:

(a)

in the case of a consolidation, amalgamation or merger, such Guarantor shall be the surviving or continuing entity;

(b)

the Person (if other than the Parent Guarantor, the Company or another Guarantor) acquiring the property in any such sale or disposition or the Person (if other than the Company or a Guarantor) formed by or surviving or continuing from any such consolidation, amalgamation or merger assumes all the obligations of that Guarantor under the applicable Indenture and its Note Guarantee pursuant to a supplemental indenture reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee; or

(c)

such transaction is (i) a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of such Guarantor (including by way of merger, amalgamation or consolidation) to a Person or Persons that are not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) a Restricted Subsidiary; or (ii) a sale or other disposition of all of the Capital Stock of that Guarantor to a Person or Persons that are not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) a Restricted Subsidiary.

In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance and upon the assumption by the successor Person, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and reasonably satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the Note Guarantee endorsed upon the Notes and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be performed by the Guarantor, such successor Person shall succeed to and be substituted for the Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named herein as a Guarantor. Such successor Person thereupon may cause to be signed any or all of the Note Guarantees to be endorsed upon all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee. All the Note Guarantees so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Note Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Note Guarantees had been issued at the date of the execution hereof.

135

Except as set forth in Articles IV and V, and notwithstanding subclauses (b) and (c) of the second preceding paragraph, nothing in this Indenture or in any of the Notes shall prevent any consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into the Company or another Guarantor, or shall prevent any sale or conveyance of the property of a Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the Company or another Guarantor.

Section 1305. Waiver of Subrogation. Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any claim or other rights that it may now or hereafter acquire against the Company that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of the Company’s obligations under the Notes and this Indenture or such Guarantor’s obligations under its Note Guarantee and this Indenture, including any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, indemnification, and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of any Holder of Notes against the Company, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity, or under contract, statute or common law, until this Indenture is discharged and all of the Notes are discharged and paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor in violation of the preceding sentence and the Notes shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be deemed to have been paid to such Guarantor for the benefit of, and held in trust for the benefit of, the Holders of the Notes, and shall forthwith be paid to the Trustee for the benefit of such Holders to be credited and applied upon the Notes, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.

Section 1306. Notation Not Required. Neither the Company nor any Guarantor shall be required to make a notation on the Notes to reflect any such Note Guarantee or any release, termination or discharge thereof.

Section 1307. Successors and Assigns of Guarantors. All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by each Guarantor shall bind its respective successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

Section 1308. Execution and Delivery of Note Guarantees. The Company shall cause each Restricted Subsidiary that is required to become a Guarantor pursuant to Section 414, and each Subsidiary of the Company that the Company causes to become a Guarantor pursuant to Section 414, to promptly execute and deliver to the Trustee a Guarantor Supplemental Indenture, or a supplemental indenture otherwise in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee evidencing its Note Guarantee on substantially the terms set forth in this Article XIII. Concurrently therewith, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such Guarantor Supplemental Indenture has been duly authorized or permitted or complies with this Indenture, that all conditions precedent to such Guarantor Supplemental Indenture required by this Indenture have been complied with and that such Guarantor Supplemental Indenture is a valid and binding agreement of the applicable Guarantor, enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with its terms.

Section 1309. Notices. Notice to any Subsidiary shall be sufficient if addressed to such Guarantor care of the Company at the address, place and manner provided in Section 109.

Section 1310. Limitation of Guarantee—Belgium.

(a)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, the guarantee, indemnity and other obligations of any Belgian Guarantor under this Indenture shall be limited to a maximum amount equal to the greater of: (i) an amount equal to 85% of that Belgian Guarantor’s net assets, as calculated on the basis of its latest audited financial statements on the date on which such Belgian Guarantor becomes party to this Indenture; (ii) an amount equal to 85% of that Belgian Guarantor’s net assets, as calculated on the basis of its latest audited annual financial statements at the time the

136

relevant demand is made; and (iii) the outstanding amount of any intra-group loans, advances or facilities made to that Belgian Guarantor by any other member of the group directly and/or indirectly using all or part of the proceeds of the Notes (whether or not such intra-group loan is retained by the relevant Belgian Guarantor for its own purposes or on-lent) at the time the relevant demand is made, and in any case the total liability of any Belgian Guarantor shall at all times be limited to the extent it would constitute unlawful financial assistance in accordance with article 5:152, article 6:118 or article 7:227 of the Belgian Code of Companies and Associations.

(b)

Any payment made by the Belgian Guarantor under this Section and any proceeds received by the Trustee and/or the Collateral Agent in connection with any Security granted by such Belgian Guarantor under the Security Documents to which it is a party shall reduce the guaranteed amount determined in accordance with the formula in paragraph (a) above.

For the purposes of this Section, the net assets of a Belgian Guarantor means its “netto actief”/ “actif net” as defined in Articles 5:142 or 7:212 (as applicable) of the Belgian Code of Companies and Associations, as amended or superseded.

Section 1311. Limitation of Guarantee—Germany.

(a)

Without limiting any specific exemptions set out in this Article XIII and notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture to the contrary:

(1)

no Guarantor’s obligations and liabilities under this Article XIII will extend to include any obligation or liability (the “Guarantee Obligations”); and

(2)

no transaction security granted by a Guarantor will secure any Guarantee Obligation,

in each case, if, to the extent doing so would be unlawful financial assistance (notwithstanding any applicable exemptions and/or undertaking of any applicable prescribed whitewash or similar financial assistance procedures) in respect of the acquisition of shares in itself or its holding company or a member of its group under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation.

(b)

Guarantee Limitation (Germany):

(i)

In this Section 1311,

“Auditor” means any reputable firm of recognized international auditors.

“GmbH Guarantor” means a Guarantor incorporated as a limited liability company (Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung) under German law.

“GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor” means a Guarantor established as a limited partnership (Kommanditgesellschaft) under German law with a limited liability company (Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung) as its general partner (Komplementär) (GmbH & Co. KG).

“GmbHG” means the German Limited Liability Companies Act (Gesetz betreffend die Gesellschaften mit beschränkter Haftung).

137

“Guarantee Liabilities” means the guarantee given pursuant to this Article XIII (Note Guarantees).

“Up-stream and/or Cross-stream Guarantee” means any Guarantee Liability if and to the extent such Guarantee Liability secures the obligations of a direct or indirect shareholder of the GmbH Guarantor (and/or, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor, of its general partner) or an affiliated company (verbundenes Unternehmen) of such shareholder within the meaning of Sections 15 et seq. of the German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz) (other than the GmbH Guarantor and its Subsidiaries and, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, the general partner and its Subsidiaries).

(ii) The right to enforce any Guarantee Liability shall be limited, in relation to any GmbH Guarantor or a GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor (the “Affected German Guarantor”), to the extent that (i) such Guarantee Liability constitutes an Up-stream and/or Cross-stream Guarantee; and (ii) payment under that Guarantee Liability would cause the GmbH Guarantor’s (or in case of a GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor, the aggregate of its and its general partner’s) Net Assets to fall below its (or in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor, its general partner’s) registered share capital (Stammkapital) (calculated in accordance with applicable law at that time) or, if the Net Assets are already below its registered share capital (Stammkapital), cause the Net Assets to be further reduced, and, as a result, cause a violation of Sections 30, 31 GmbHG (the “Share Capital Impairment”).

For the purposes of this Section 1311, “Net Assets” means an amount equal to the sum of the amount of the GmbH Guarantor’s (or in case of a GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor, its general partner’s) assets (consisting of all assets which correspond to the items set forth in Section 266 paragraphs 2 A, B, C, D and E of the German Commercial Code (Handelsgesetzbuch)) less the aggregate amount of such GmbH Guarantor’s (or in case of a GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor, its general partner’s) liabilities (consisting of all liabilities and liability reserves which correspond to the items set forth in Section 266 paragraphs 3 B (but disregarding any accruals (Rückstellungen) in respect of a potential enforcement of a Guarantee Liability or any Collateral) C, D and E of the German Commercial Code (Handelsgesetzbuch) minus any profits which are not available for distribution in accordance with Section 253 paragraph 6, Section 268 paragraph 8 and Section 272 paragraph 5 of the German Commercial Code (Handelsgesetzbuch)).

(iii) The Net Assets shall be determined in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles applicable from time to time in Germany (Grundsätze ordnungsmäßiger Buchführung) and be based on the same principles that were consistently applied by the GmbH Guarantor (or, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor, its general partner) in the preparation of its most recent annual balance sheet (Jahresbilanz) save for the adjustments pursuant to paragraph (iv) below.

(iv) For the purposes of the calculation of the Net Assets, the following balance sheet items shall be adjusted as follows:

(A)

the amount of any increase of the registered share capital (Stammkapital) of the Affected German Guarantor or its general partner (Komplementär), effected after the date of this Indenture to the extent (i) effected in violation of the provisions of this Indenture and made out of retained earnings (Kapitalerhöhung aus Gesellschaftsmitteln) or (ii) it is not fully paid up, shall be deducted from the relevant registered share capital (Stammkapital);

138

(B)

loans provided by the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company to and other liabilities incurred by the Affected German Guarantor or its general partner (Komplementär) shall be disregarded if such loans and/or liabilities are subordinated (for the benefit of the Affected German Guarantor’s (or its general partner’s (Komplementär)) creditors in general) or are considered as subordinated in an insolvency proceeding over the Affected German Guarantor’s or its general partner’s (Komplementär) assets pursuant to Section 39 paragraph 1 s. 1 no. 5 and/or paragraph 2 of the German Insolvency Code (Insolvenzordnung) provided that a waiver (Erlass) or conversion into equity of, or other form of extinguishing, the relevant repayment claim under loans and other liabilities subordinated pursuant to Section 39 paragraph 1 s. 1 no. 5 and/or paragraph 2 of the German Insolvency Code (Insolvenzordnung) does not lead to personal liability of the directors of the Company or the relevant Subsidiary of the Company as lender; and

(C)

loans and other liabilities incurred by the Affected German Guarantor and/or the general partner (Komplementär) of an Affected German Guarantor in willful or grossly negligent violation of the provisions of this Indenture shall be disregarded.

(v) The Affected German Guarantor and the general partner (Komplementär) of an Affected German Guarantor shall (within three months of the written request of the Trustee, acting at the written direction of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, and to the extent legally permitted) for the purposes of the determination of the Net Assets dispose of any and all assets which are shown in the balance sheet of the Affected German Guarantor with a book value (Buchwert) which is significantly lower than the market value of such assets, if such disposal is commercially justifiable with respect to the cost and efforts involved and such asset is not necessary for such Affected German Guarantor’s business (betriebsnotwendig).

(vi) The limitations set out in this Section 1311 shall in any event not apply:

(A) to any amounts due and payable under the Guarantee Liabilities which relate to funds borrowed under a Note Document which have been on-lent to or otherwise passed on to, or issued for the benefit of, the Affected German Guarantor or to the general partner (Komplementär) of an Affected German Guarantor, to any of its or their Subsidiaries and/or for the benefit of any of their creditors if and to the extent such amount on-lent or otherwise passed on to, or issued for the benefit of such persons, is still outstanding;

(B) to the extent the Affected German Guarantor is a party to a domination and/or profit and loss pooling agreement (Beherrschungsvertrag und/oder Gewinnabführungsvertrag) as dominated entity and/or transferor (beherrschtes Unternehmen und/oder übertragendes Unternehmen) directly or indirectly via an uninterrupted chain of domination and/or profit and loss pooling agreements with the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company as dominating entity (herrschendes Unternehmen) whose obligations under the Note Documents are enforced, unless the existence of such a domination agreement (Beherrschungsvertrag) and/or a profit transfer agreement (Gewinnabführungsvertrag) does not lead to the full inapplicability of Section 30 paragraph 1 sentence 1 GmbHG;

(C) if and to the extent, at the time of enforcement of the Guarantee Liabilities, such limitations are not required for any reason (including as a result of a change in the relevant rules of law or their application or construction by the German Federal Court of Justice (Bundesgerichtshof)), to protect the managing directors of the Affected German Guarantor or, in case of a GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor, its general partner (Komplementär), from the risk of personal liability resulting from a violation of the Affected German Guarantor’s obligation to maintain its registered share capital (Stammkapital) pursuant to Sections 30 et seq. GmbHG or similar provisions under the then applicable laws;

139

(D) if and to extent the relevant Affected German Guarantor has on the date of enforcement of the Guarantee Liabilities a fully recoverable indemnity or claim for refund (vollwertiger Gegenleistungs- oder Rückgewähranspruch) covering the Guarantee Liabilities;

(E) if following the opening of insolvency proceedings (Eröffnung eines Insolvenzverfahrens) in respect of the Affected German Guarantor, an enforcement of the Guarantee Liabilities and consequential payments no longer result in any personal liability of any managing director of the Affected German Guarantor or, in case of a GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor, its general partner (Komplementär); or

(F) if following notification by the Trustee of claims raised under the Guarantee Liabilities, (i) the Affected German Guarantor fails to provide within fifteen (15) Business Days after the date of such notification evidence satisfactory to the Trustee (acting at the written direction of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding), including in particular interim financial statements of the Affected German Guarantor and, if such Affected German Guarantor is a GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor, also of its general partner (Komplementär) together with a detailed calculation (satisfactory to the Trustee, acting at the written direction of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, acting reasonably) of the amount of the Net Assets of the Affected German Guarantor or, as the case may be, its general partner (Komplementär) taking into account the adjustments and treatments set forth in paragraph (iv) above (a “Management Determination”), or (ii) if after receipt of such unaudited statements, notification is given by the Trustee (acting at the written direction of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding) to the Affected German Guarantor to provide a confirmation of the Management Determination by the Affected German Guarantor’s Auditor (the “Auditors’ Determination”) that confirmation is not provided within forty-five (45) days after the date of such notification.

(vii) The Trustee having demanded payment under the Guarantee Liabilities shall be entitled to demand payment under the Guarantee Liabilities 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 result in a Share Capital Impairment. If and to the extent that the Net Assets as determined by the Auditors’ Determination are lower than the amount enforced in accordance with the Management Determination, the enforcing Trustee shall release, within ten (10) Business Days of delivery of the Auditors’ Determination, to the relevant Affected German Guarantor (or if the Affected German Guarantor is a GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor, to its general partner (Komplementär)) such excess enforcement proceeds.

(viii) No reduction of the amount enforceable under the Guarantee Liabilities as a result of the above limitations will prejudice the rights of the Trustee to continue enforcing any Guarantee Liabilities (subject always to the operation of the limitation set out above at the time of such enforcement) until full satisfaction of the guaranteed claims.

ARTICLE XIV

COLLATERAL

Section 1401. Security Documents. The due and punctual payment of the Obligations under this Indenture, the Notes, the Note Guarantees and the other Note Documents, shall be secured as provided in the Security Documents, which define the terms of the Liens that secure the Obligations under this Indenture, the Notes, the Note Guarantees and the other Note Documents, subject to the Intercreditor Agreements. The Trustee, the Company and the Guarantors hereby acknowledge and agree that the Collateral Agent holds the Collateral in trust for the benefit of the Holders, the Trustee and itself and

140

pursuant to the terms of the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements. Each Holder, by accepting a Note, consents and agrees to the terms of the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements (including the provisions providing for the possession, use, release and foreclosure of Collateral), 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 Collateral Agent to enter into the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements (including by way of joinder and/or amendment thereto), and to perform its obligations and exercise its rights thereunder in accordance therewith. The Company shall deliver to the Collateral Agent copies of all documents required to be filed pursuant to the 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 1401, to assure and confirm to the 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 and pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreements. On or following the Issue Date and subject to the terms and conditions of the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements, the Company and the Guarantors shall execute, acknowledge, deliver, record or file or cause to be executed, acknowledged, delivered, recorded or filed, at its expense any and all further documents, financing statements (including financing change statements, continuation statements and amendments to financing statements), agreements and instruments, make all filings (including the filings of financing, continuation, termination or financing change statements or amendments under the UCC or PPSA (or the foreign equivalent thereof) as may be necessary to record, terminate or continue the effectiveness of any such financing statements, 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 created or intended to be created by the Security Documents in the Collateral. Such security interest and Liens will be created under the Security Documents and other security agreements, mortgages and other instruments and documents. The terms of the Intercreditor Agreements are hereby ratified by and approved by the Trustee on its own behalf and on behalf of any Holder in all respects and the Trustee on its own behalf and on behalf of the Holders hereby directs the Collateral Agent to bind itself to the terms thereof on behalf of the Trustee and the Holders.

Section 1402. Release of Collateral.

(a) Liens securing the Notes and the Note Guarantees will automatically and without the need for any further action by any Person be released so long as such release is otherwise in compliance with this Indenture, under any one or more of the following circumstances:

(1) to enable the sale or other disposition of such property or assets, including Capital Stock (other than to the Company or a Guarantor), to the extent not prohibited by Section 411;

(2) in the case of a Guarantor that is released from its Note Guarantee in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, the release of the property and assets of such Guarantor;

(4) with respect to Collateral that is Capital Stock, upon the dissolution or liquidation of the Company of that Capital Stock that is not prohibited by this Indenture;

(5) with respect to any Collateral that is or becomes an Excluded Asset;

141

(6) to the extent the Liens on the Current Asset Collateral securing the ABL Facility are released by the ABL Collateral Agent (including any release by, or as a result of, payment of indebtedness under the ABL Facility) and such Collateral was only required to secure the Notes pursuant to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreements upon the release of such Liens; or

(7) as described under Article IX hereof.

(b) The security interests in all Collateral securing the Notes also will be released automatically and without the need for any further action by any Person be released so long as such release is otherwise in compliance with this Indenture:

(1) upon payment in full of the principal of, together with accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes and all other obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations for which no demand has been made) under this Indenture, the Note Guarantees and the Security Documents that are due and payable at or prior to the time such principal, together with accrued and unpaid interest, is paid,

(2) upon a Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance under this Indenture as described under Article XII hereof, or a discharge of this Indenture as described under Article XI hereof, or

(3) pursuant to the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements.

(d) With respect to any release of Collateral, upon receipt of an Officer’s Certificate stating that all conditions precedent under this Indenture and the Security Documents, as applicable, related to such release have been complied with, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall, execute, deliver or acknowledge (at the Company’s expense) such instruments or releases requested of it to evidence the release of any Collateral and shall do or cause to be done (at the Company’s expense) all acts requested of them to release such Lien as soon as is reasonably practicable. Neither the Trustee nor the 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 Intercreditor Agreements to the contrary, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to execute and deliver any such instrument of release, satisfaction or termination or cause such acts reasonably requested of them, unless and until it receives such Officer’s Certificate, upon which it shall be entitled to conclusively rely.

Section 1403. Suits to Protect the Collateral. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, subject to the provisions of Article VII and the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements, the Trustee (acting at the written direction of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding) may or may direct the 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 due and payable in respect of the Obligations hereunder.

142

Subject to the provisions hereof and of the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall have the power to institute and to maintain such suits and proceedings as the Trustee or the 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 Collateral Agent may determine to preserve or protect its interests and the interests of the Holders in the Collateral. Nothing in this Section 1403 shall be considered to impose any such duty or obligation to act on the part of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent.

Section 1404. Authorization of Receipt of Funds by the Trustee and the Collateral Agent Under the Security Documents. Subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreements, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent are each authorized to receive any funds for the benefit of the Holders distributed under the Security Documents to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, to apply such funds as provided in this Indenture, and to make further distributions of such funds to the Holders according to the provisions of this Indenture.

Section 1405. Purchaser Protected. In no event shall any purchaser in good faith of any property purported to be released hereunder be bound to ascertain the authority of the Collateral Agent or the Trustee to execute the applicable release or to inquire as to the satisfaction of any conditions required by the provisions hereof for the exercise of such authority or to see to the application of any consideration given by such purchaser or other transferee; nor shall any purchaser or other transferee of any property or rights permitted by this Article XIV to be sold be under any obligation to ascertain or inquire into the authority of the Company or the applicable Guarantor to make any such sale or other transfer.

Section 1406. 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 XIV upon the Company 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 Company or a Guarantor or of any Officer or Officers thereof required by the provisions of this Article XIV; and if the Trustee or the 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 Collateral Agent.

Section 1407. Collateral Agent.

(a) The Guarantors and each of the Holders by acceptance of any Notes and the Note Guarantees hereby designates and appoints U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association as the Collateral Agent under this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements, and the Company and each of the Holders by acceptance of such Notes hereby consents to and approves the terms of and irrevocably authorizes and directs the Collateral Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms of this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements and consents and agrees to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements and each Security Document, 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 Collateral Agent agrees to act as such on the express conditions contained in this Section 1407. Each Holder agrees that any action taken by the Collateral Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements and the exercise by the 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 and the Intercreditor Agreements, the duties of the Collateral Agent shall be ministerial and administrative in nature, and the Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth in this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements to which the Collateral Agent is a party, nor shall the Collateral Agent have or be deemed to have any trust or

143

other fiduciary relationship with the Trustee, any Holder, the Company or any Guarantor, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements or otherwise exist against the Collateral Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Indenture with reference to the 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. For the purpose of the Security Documents governed by Belgian law, each Guarantor and Holder appoints the Collateral Agent as its representative in accordance with Article 3 of Book III, Title XVII of the Belgian Civil Code, which appointment is hereby accepted.

(b) The Collateral Agent may perform any of its duties under this Indenture, the Security Documents, and the Intercreditor Agreements 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 of its selection 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 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.

(c) None of the Collateral Agent nor 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 finally adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable decision) or under or in connection with any Security Document, or the Intercreditor Agreements, or the transactions contemplated thereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as finally adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable decision), 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 Company or any other Guarantor or Affiliate of any Guarantor, or any Officer or Related Person thereof, contained in this Indenture, the Security Documents, or the Intercreditor Agreements, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Collateral Agent under or in connection with, this Indenture, the Security Documents, or the Intercreditor Agreements, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Indenture, the Security Documents, the Intercreditor Agreements, or for any failure of the Company, any Guarantor or any other party to this Indenture, the Security Documents, or the Intercreditor Agreements, to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. None of the Collateral Agent nor 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, or the Intercreditor Agreements, or to inspect the properties, books, or records of the Company, any Guarantor or any of their Affiliates.

(d) The 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 (including those by 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 Company or any Guarantor), independent accountants and other experts and advisors selected by the Collateral Agent. The 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 Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or

144

refusing to take any action under this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of 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 Collateral Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements in accordance with a request, direction, instruction or consent of 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 Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, unless a Trust Officer of the Collateral Agent shall have received written notice from the Trustee or the Company 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 Indenture and the Company. The 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 VI or the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes (subject to this Section 1407).

(f) The Collateral Agent may resign at any time by 30 days’ written notice to the Trustee and the Company, such resignation to be effective upon the acceptance of a successor agent to its appointment as Collateral Agent. If the Collateral Agent resigns under this Indenture, the Company shall appoint a successor collateral agent. If no successor collateral agent is appointed prior to the intended effective date of the resignation of the 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, subject to the consent of the Company (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 Company pursuant to the preceding sentence within thirty (30) days after the intended effective date of resignation (as stated in the notice of resignation) the 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 Collateral Agent, and the term “Collateral Agent” shall mean such successor collateral agent, and the retiring Collateral Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as the Collateral Agent shall be terminated. After the retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Section 1407 (and Section 707 hereof) shall continue to inure to its benefit and the retiring 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 Collateral Agent under this Indenture.

(g) U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, shall initially act as Collateral Agent and shall be authorized to appoint co-Collateral Agents as necessary in its sole discretion. Except as otherwise explicitly provided in this Indenture, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements, neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its respective officers, directors, employees or agents or other Related Persons shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. The Collateral Agent shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct (as finally adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable decision).

145

(h) The Collateral Agent is authorized and directed to (i) enter into the Security Documents to which it is party, whether executed on or after the Issue Date, (ii) enter into the Intercreditor Agreements (including by way of joinder and/or amendment thereto) on the Issue Date, (iii) make the representations of the Holders set forth in the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements, (iv) bind the Holders on the terms as set forth in the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements, and (v) perform and observe its obligations under the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements.

(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 Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, or (ii) payments from the Collateral Agent in excess of the amount required to be paid to the Trustee pursuant to Article VI, the Trustee shall promptly turn the same over to the Collateral Agent, in kind, and with such endorsements as may be required to negotiate the same to the Collateral Agent such proceeds to be applied by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements.

(j) The 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, or other analogous laws, can be perfected only by possession. Should the Trustee obtain possession of any such Collateral, upon the written request from the Company, the Trustee shall notify the Collateral Agent thereof and promptly shall, subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Intercreditor Agreements, deliver such Collateral to the Collateral Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Collateral Agent’s instructions.

(k) The 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 the Company or any Guarantor or is cared for, protected, or insured or has been encumbered, or that the 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 property of the Company or any Guarantor 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 care, disclosure, or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities, and powers granted or available to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements, other than (subject to its rights hereunder and under the Security Documents) pursuant to the written instructions of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes or as otherwise provided in the Security Documents. Neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall have a duty or obligation to monitor the condition, financial or otherwise, of the Company or any Guarantor.

(l) If the Company or any Guarantor (i) incurs any obligations in respect of Obligations under the Notes, Priority Lien Obligations, Parity Lien Obligations or Indebtedness secured by Liens on the Collateral that are junior to the Notes and the Note Guarantees at any time when no applicable Intercreditor Agreement is in effect or at any time when Indebtedness constituting Obligations under the Notes, Parity Lien Obligations or Indebtedness secured by Liens on the Collateral that are junior to the Notes and the Note Guarantees entitled to the benefit of the applicable Intercreditor Agreements is concurrently retired, and (ii) delivers to the Collateral Agent an Officer’s Certificate so stating and requesting the Collateral Agent to enter into an intercreditor agreement (on substantially the same terms as the relevant Intercreditor Agreement) in favor of a designated agent or representative for the holders of the Obligations under the Notes or Indebtedness secured by Liens on the Collateral that are junior to the Notes and the Note Guarantees so incurred, together with an Opinion of Counsel, the Collateral Agent shall (and is hereby authorized and directed to) enter into such intercreditor agreement (at the sole expense and cost of the Company, including legal fees and expenses of the Collateral Agent), bind the Holders on the terms set forth therein and perform and observe its obligations thereunder.

146

(m) No provision of this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements nor any Security Document shall require the 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, acting at the written direction of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, in the case of the Collateral Agent) unless it shall have received indemnity and/or security satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and/or the Trustee, as applicable, against potential costs and liabilities incurred by the Collateral Agent and/or the Trustee, as applicable relating thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements, or the Security Documents, in the event the 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 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 Collateral Agent has determined that the 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 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 and/or undertaking from the Company or the Holders to be sufficient.

(n) The Collateral Agent (i) shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in connection with this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements 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, (ii) shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Collateral Agent may agree in writing with the Company (and money held in trust by the 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 Collateral Agent shall not be construed to impose duties to act.

(o) Neither the 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 or pandemics, governmental regulations superimposed after the fact, fire, communication line failures, computer viruses, power failures, earthquakes or other disasters. Neither the 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 Collateral Agent does not assume any responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or any breach by the Company or any Guarantor under this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements, and the Security Documents. The 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 Intercreditor Agreements, or in any certificate, report, statement, or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Collateral Agent under or in connection with, this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements or any Security Documents; the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of the Intercreditor Agreements 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

147

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 Intercreditor Agreements and the Security Documents. The 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 Intercreditor Agreements and the Security Documents, or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent contained in this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements and any Security Documents. The Collateral Agent shall not be required to initiate or conduct any litigation or collection or other proceeding under this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements and the Security Documents unless expressly set forth hereunder or thereunder. The 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 and the Intercreditor Agreements.

(q) The parties hereto and the Holders hereby agree and acknowledge that neither the 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 Intercreditor Agreements, 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 Intercreditor Agreements and the Security Documents, the Collateral Agent may hold or obtain indicia of ownership primarily to protect the security interest of the Collateral Agent in the Collateral and that any such actions taken by the Collateral Agent shall not be construed as or otherwise constitute any participation in the management of such Collateral. In the event that the 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 either of the Collateral Agent or the Trustee’s sole discretion may cause the Collateral Agent or the Trustee, as applicable, 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 any other applicable law or otherwise cause the Collateral Agent or the Trustee to incur liability under CERCLA or any other federal, state, provincial, territorial or local law, each of the Collateral Agent and the Trustee reserves the right, instead of taking such action, to either resign as the 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 Collateral Agent nor the Trustee shall be liable to the Company, the Guarantors or any other Person for any environmental claims or contribution actions under any federal, state, provincial, territorial or local law, rule or regulation by reason of either of the Collateral Agent’s 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 Collateral Agent or the Trustee) other than the Company or the Guarantors, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes shall direct the Trustee in writing to direct the Collateral Agent to appoint an appropriately qualified Person (excluding the Collateral Agent or the Trustee) whom they shall designate to possess, own, operate or manage, as the case may be, the property.

(r) Upon the receipt by the Collateral Agent of a written request of the Company signed by an Officer (a “Collateral Document Order”), the 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 or amendment or supplement thereto to be executed after the Issue Date; provided that the Collateral Agent shall not be required to execute or enter into any such Security Document which,

148

in the Collateral Agent’s reasonable opinion is reasonably likely to adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Collateral Agent or that the Collateral Agent determines is reasonably likely to involve the Collateral Agent in personal liability. Such Collateral Document Order shall (i) state that it is being delivered to the Collateral Agent pursuant to, and is a Collateral Document Order referred to in, this Section 1407(r), and (ii) instruct the 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 Company, upon delivery to the Collateral Agent of an Officer’s Certificate stating that all conditions precedent to the execution and delivery of the Security Document have been satisfied. The Holders, by their acceptance of the Notes, hereby authorize and direct the Collateral Agent to execute such Security Documents (subject to the first sentence of this Section 1407(r)).

(s) Subject to the provisions of the applicable Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements each Holder, by acceptance of the Notes, agrees that the Collateral Agent and if applicable, the Trustee, shall execute and deliver the Intercreditor Agreements and the Security Documents to which it is a party and all agreements, documents and instruments incidental thereto, and act in accordance with the terms thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, the Collateral Agent shall have no discretion under this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements or the Security Documents and shall not be required to make or give any determination, consent, approval, request or direction without the written direction of (i) with respect to the Trustee, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes, and (ii) with respect to the Collateral Agent, the Trustee (acting at the written direction of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes), as applicable. Each Holder, by acceptance of the Notes, authorizes and directs the Collateral Agent to execute and deliver the Intercreditor Agreements, in its capacity as authorized representative and all agreements, documents and instruments incidental thereto, and act in accordance with the terms thereof.

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

(u) The 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 Intercreditor Agreements, and to the extent not prohibited under the Intercreditor Agreements 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 606 and the other provisions of this Indenture.

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

149

(w) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or in any Security Document or the Intercreditor Agreements in no event shall the Collateral Agent or the Trustee be responsible for, or have any 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 or the Intercreditor Agreements (including without limitation the filing or continuation of any UCC or PPSA financing, continuation, termination or financing change statements or similar documents or instruments), nor shall the Collateral Agent or the Trustee be responsible for, and neither the 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) Unless another provision of this Indenture provides that an action shall be performed upon receipt of either an Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel, before the Collateral Agent acts or refrains from acting in each case at the written request or direction of the Company 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 1407 and Section 106 hereof. The 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, the Collateral Agent shall act pursuant to the written instructions of the Trustee (acting at the written direction of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes) with respect to the Security Documents and the Collateral.

(z) The rights, privileges, benefits, immunities, indemnities and other protections given to the Trustee hereunder, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Collateral Agent acting hereunder, including, without limitation under Article VI hereof, and under the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements as if the Collateral Agent were named as the Trustee herein. The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to compensation, reimbursement and indemnity as set forth in Section 707, as if references therein to Trustee were references to Collateral Agent.

(aa) If any Collateral Agent consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business (including this transaction) to, another corporation, the successor corporation without any further act shall be the successor of such Collateral Agent.

(bb) Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein (but not with respect to express discretions to the Collateral Agent hereunder), whenever reference is made in this Indenture or any Security Document, 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 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 Collateral Agent, it is understood that in all cases the 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 Trustee, acting at the written direction of the Holders or the Holders (acting in accordance with this Indenture and the Security Documents), or any controlling agent or representative under any Intercreditor Agreement or Security Document in respect of such action (in each case as applicable). The 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 Trustee, acting at the written direction of the Holders or the Holders (acting in accordance with this Indenture and the Security Documents), or any controlling agent or representative under any intercreditor agreement or Security Document to provide such instruction, advice or concurrence.

150

(cc) Each of the Holders by its acceptance of the Notes hereby designates and appoints the Collateral Agent to act as hypothecary representative (within the meaning of Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Québec) for all present and future Secured Parties (as defined below) (in such capacity, the “Hypothecary Representative”) to enter into, to take and to hold, on behalf of and for the benefit of itself, the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and the Holders (collectively, the “Secured Parties”) any hypothec granted pursuant to a Security Document governed by the laws of the Province of Québec on all or any of the present and future property of the Company or any of the Guarantors to secure all or any of the Obligations under this Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantee, and to exercise the rights and perform the obligations of the Hypothecary Representative under any such Security Document. Any Person who becomes a Secured Party will be deemed to have consented to and confirmed the Collateral Agent as Hypothecary Representative and to have ratified as of the date such Person becomes a Secured Party all actions taken by the Hypothecary Representative. The execution by the Collateral Agent, acting as Hypothecary Representative, prior to the execution of this Indenture of any such Security Document is ratified and confirmed. For greater certainty, the Collateral Agent, acting in its capacity as Hypothecary Representative shall have the same rights, privileges, benefits, protections, immunities, indemnities and exclusions from liability as are prescribed in favour of the Collateral Agent in this Indenture, which shall apply mutatis mutandis. The replacement of the Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture also constitutes the replacement of the Collateral Agent as Hypothecary Representative. Each such successor Collateral Agent appointed in accordance with the terms of this Indenture shall automatically and without any further formality or action become the successor Hypothecary Representative for the purposes of any deed of hypothec that is in effect at the time of the appointment of such successor Collateral Agent (subject to the registration of a notice of replacement as required by Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Québec prior to exercising any rights related to such Security Document).

Section 1408. Maintenance of Collateral. Subject to the Security Documents, the Company and the Guarantors shall maintain the Collateral in good, safe and insurable operating order, condition (subject to casualty, condemnation and ordinary wear and tear) and from time to time make, or cause to be made, all needful and proper repairs thereto and to do all other acts as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to maintain and preserve the Collateral, in each case necessary in order that the business be carried on in connection therewith, if any, may be properly conducted at all times, in each case, except: (i) as expressly permitted by this Indenture, (ii) such as may expire, be abandoned or lapse in the ordinary course of business or (iii) where the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect. Subject to the Security Documents, the Company and the Guarantors shall pay all real estate and other taxes (except such as (i) are being contested in good faith and by appropriate negotiations or proceedings or (ii) the Company or Guarantor, as applicable, has set aside on its books reserves in accordance with GAAP with respect thereto), and use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain in full force and effect all material permits and certain insurance coverages, in each case, except where the failure to do so would not individually, or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect.

Section 1409. After-Acquired Property. Upon the acquisition by any of the Company or the Guarantors after the Issue Date of any assets (other than Excluded Assets), including, but not limited to, any real property that qualifies as Collateral or any equipment or fixtures which constitute accretions, additions or technological upgrades to the equipment or fixtures or any working capital assets that, in any such case, form part of the Collateral, the Company or such Guarantor shall execute and deliver, to the extent required by this Indenture and/or the Security Documents, any information, documentation, financing statements or other certificates as may be necessary to vest in the Collateral Agent a perfected security interest, with the priority required by this Indenture and the Security Documents, subject only to Permitted Liens and the Agreed Security Principles, in such after-acquired property and to have such after-acquired property added to the Collateral, and thereupon all provisions of this Indenture and the Security Documents relating to the Collateral shall be deemed to relate to such after- acquired property to the same extent and with the same force and effect.

151

The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and Holders are referred to the Indenture for a statement of such terms. To the maximum extent permitted by law, in the case of any conflict between the provisions of this Note and the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall control. Additional Notes may be issued from time to time under the Indenture and will vote as a class with the Notes and otherwise be treated as Notes for purposes of the Indenture.

Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Note shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Notes, the Holders of not less than 30.0% in principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to pursue such remedy in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee security and/or indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Notes at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 consecutive days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of security and/or indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Note for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations and other provisions therein set forth, (a) the transfer of this Note is registrable in the Note Register, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company duly executed by, the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees, (b) the Notes are issuable only in fully registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, and (c) the Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

No service charge shall be made for any such registration, transfer or exchange, but the Company or the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
