THE NOTES

SECTION 2.01 Form and Dating; Terms.

(a) General. The Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rules or usage. Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. The Notes shall be in minimum denominations of $2,000 principal amount and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof; provided that after a PIK Payment, the Notes shall be in minimum denominations of $1.00 and any integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof. PIK Payments on the PIK Notes will be made in PIK Note denominations of $1.00 and any integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof.

(b) Global Notes. Notes issued in global form shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (including the Global Note Legend thereon and the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Notes issued in definitive form

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

Following the termination of the Restricted Period, beneficial interests in the Regulation S Temporary Global Note, if any, will be exchanged for beneficial interests in the Regulation S Permanent Global Note pursuant to the Applicable Procedures. Simultaneously with the authentication of the Regulation S Permanent Global Note, the Trustee will cancel the Regulation S Temporary Global Note. The aggregate principal amount of the Regulation S Temporary Global Note and the Regulation S Permanent Global Note may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee and the Depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, in connection with transfers of interest as hereinafter provided.

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

The terms and provisions contained in the Notes shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture and the Issuers 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.

The Notes shall be subject to repurchase by the Issuers pursuant to an Offer to Purchase as provided in Section 4.07 or Section 4.09. The Notes shall not be redeemable, other than as provided in Article 3 and Section 4.09.

Additional Notes and PIK Notes ranking pari passu with the Initial Notes may be created and issued from time to time by the Issuers 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 (other than with respect to the purchase price thereof and the date from which the interest accrues) as the Initial Notes; provided that the Issuers’ ability to issue Additional Notes shall be subject to the Issuers’ compliance with Section 4.03 and Section 4.06. The Initial Notes and any Additional Notes or PIK Notes shall be substantially identical other than the issuance dates, offering price, transfer restrictions and, if applicable, the date from which interest shall accrue. Except as described under Article 9, the Initial Notes, any Additional Notes and any PIK Notes subsequently issued under this Indenture will be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture, including waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase. Unless the context requires otherwise, references to “Notes” for all purposes of this Indenture include any Additional Notes that are

actually issued and any references to “principal amount of the Notes” include any increase in the principal amount of the outstanding Notes as a result of the issuance of Additional Notes and any PIK Payment. Any Additional Notes shall be issued with the benefit of an indenture supplemental to this Indenture.

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

(e) PIK Payments. In connection with the payment of PIK Interest in respect of the Notes, the Issuers may, upon compliance with the conditions set forth in the Notes, without the consent of the Holders and without regard to any restrictions or limitations set forth in Section 4.03, elect to either increase the outstanding principal amount of the Global Notes or issue additional certificated Notes (“PIK Notes”) under this Indenture on the same terms and conditions as the Initial Notes (in each case, a “PIK Payment”). In the event that the Issuers shall be entitled to pay PIK Interest for any Interest Period, then the Issuers shall deliver an Officers’ Certificate to the Trustee three Business Days prior to the commencement of the relevant Interest Period, which notice shall state the total amount of interest to be paid on such Interest Payment Date and the amount of such interest to be paid as PIK Interest. The Issuers shall promptly deliver a copy of the notice to the Holders (or may request the Trustee to deliver such notice on their behalf). Interest for the first Interest Period commencing on the Closing Date shall be payable entirely in Cash Interest. Interest for the final Interest Period ending at the stated maturity of the Notes shall be payable entirely as Cash Interest.

SECTION 2.02 Execution and Authentication.

At least one Officer shall execute the Notes on behalf of the Issuers by manual or facsimile signature.

If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time a Note is authenticated, the Note shall nevertheless be valid.

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

On the Closing Date, the Trustee shall, upon receipt of the Issuers’ order (an “Authentication Order”), authenticate and deliver the Initial Notes. In addition, at any time, from time to time, the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate and deliver any Additional Notes and PIK Notes. Such Authentication Order shall specify the amount of the Notes to be authenticated and, in the case of any issuance of Additional Notes pursuant to Section 2.01, shall certify that such issuance is in compliance with Section 4.03 and Section 4.06.

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

SECTION 2.03 Registrar and Paying Agent.

The Issuers shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”) and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”) in Wilmington, Delaware, which shall initially be one of the corporate trust offices of the Trustee located in Wilmington, Delaware. The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes (“Note Register”) and of their transfer and exchange. The Issuers may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar and the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent. The Issuers may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without prior notice to any Holder. The Issuers shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Issuers fail to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. Either Issuer or any of their Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

The Issuers initially appoint The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) to act as Depositary with respect to the Global Notes.

The Issuers initially appoint the Trustee to act as the Paying Agent, Registrar and Transfer Agent for the Notes and the Registrar to act as Custodian with respect to the Global Notes.

SECTION 2.04 Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust.

The Issuers shall require each Paying Agent, other than the Trustee, to agree in writing that the Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, and will notify the Trustee of any default by the Issuers in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Issuers at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than an Issuer or a Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for the money so paid. If an Issuer or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Issuers, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes.

SECTION 2.05 Holder Lists.

The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of all Holders. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuers shall furnish to the Trustee at least five Business Days before each Interest Payment Date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders of Notes.

SECTION 2.06 Transfer and Exchange.

(a) Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes. Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 2.06, a Global Note may be transferred, in whole and not in part, only to another nominee of the Depositary or to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. A beneficial interest in a Global Note may not be exchanged for a Definitive Note unless (i) the Depositary notifies the Issuers that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Note and the Issuers fail to appoint a successor Depositary within 90 days or (ii) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default with respect to the Notes. Upon the occurrence of any of the preceding events in (i) or (ii) above, Definitive Notes delivered in exchange for any Global Note or beneficial interests therein will be registered in the names, and issued in any approved denominations, requested by or on behalf of the Depositary (in accordance with its customary procedures). Global Notes also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in part, as provided in Sections 2.07 and 2.10. Every Note authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion thereof, pursuant to this Section 2.06, Section 2.07 or Section 2.10, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note, except for Definitive Notes issued subsequent to any of the preceding events in (i) or (ii) above and pursuant to Section 2.06(c) or (e). A Global Note may not be exchanged for another Note other than as provided in this Section 2.06(a); provided, however, beneficial interests in a Global Note may be transferred and exchanged as provided in Sections 2.06(b) and (c).

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

Beneficial interests in any Unrestricted Global Note may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note. No written orders or instructions shall be required to be delivered to the Registrar to effect the transfers described in this Section 2.06(b)(i).

(ii) All Other Transfers and Exchanges of Beneficial Interests in Global Notes. In connection with all transfers and exchanges of beneficial interests that are not subject to Section 2.06(b)(i), the transferor of such beneficial interest must deliver to the Registrar either (A) (1) a written order from a Participant or an Indirect Participant given to the Depositary in accordance with the Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in another Global Note in an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged and (2) instructions given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures containing information regarding the Participant account to be credited with such increase or (B) (1) a written order from a Participant or an Indirect Participant given to the Depositary in accordance with the Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to cause to be issued a Definitive Note in an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged and (2) instructions given by the Depositary to the Registrar containing information regarding the Person in whose name such Definitive Note shall be registered to effect the transfer or exchange referred to in (1) above; provided that in no event shall Definitive Notes be issued upon the transfer or exchange of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Temporary Global Note prior to (A) the expiration of the Restricted Period and (B) the receipt by the Registrar of any certificates required pursuant to Rule 903; provided, further, that in no event shall a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note be credited, or an Unrestricted Definitive Note be issued, to a Person who is an affiliate (as defined in Rule 144) of the Issuers. Upon satisfaction of all of the requirements for transfer or exchange of beneficial interests in Global Notes contained in this Indenture and the Notes or otherwise applicable under the Securities Act, the Trustee shall adjust the principal amount of the relevant Global Note(s) pursuant to Section 2.06(h).

(iii) Transfer of Beneficial Interests to Another Restricted Global Note.

(iii) Neither the Registrar nor the Issuers shall be required to register the transfer of or exchange any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.

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

(v) Neither the Registrar nor the Issuers shall be required (A) to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange any Notes during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of mailing of notice of redemption of Notes for redemption under Section 3.03 and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, (B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part, or (C) to register the transfer of or to exchange a Note between a Record Date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date.

(vi) Prior to due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any Note, the Trustee, any Agent and the Issuers may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on such Notes and for all other purposes, and none of the Trustee, any Agent or the Issuers shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

An indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of each of the Trustee and the Issuers to protect the Issuers, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuers and the Trustee may charge for their expenses in replacing a Note.

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

SECTION 2.08 Outstanding Notes.

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

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

If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue.

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

SECTION 2.09 Treasury Notes.

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

SECTION 2.10 Temporary Notes.

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

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

SECTION 2.11 Cancellation.

The Issuers at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee or, at the direction of the Trustee, the Registrar or the Paying Agent and no one else, shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall dispose of such cancelled Notes in accordance with its customary procedures (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act). The Trustee shall deliver a certificate of cancellation of Notes to the Issuers upon the Issuers’ written request. The Issuers may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that they have paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

SECTION 2.12 Defaulted Interest.

If the Issuers default in a payment of interest on the Notes, they shall pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, in each

case at the rate provided in the Notes. The Issuers shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest to be paid on each Note and the date of payment, and at the same time the Issuers shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount to be paid in respect of such defaulted interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such defaulted interest as provided in this Section 2.12. The Trustee shall fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date; provided that no such special record date shall be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuers of such special record date. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Issuers (or, upon the written request of the Issuers, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuers) shall mail or cause to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder a notice at his or her address as it appears in the Note Register that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid.

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

SECTION 2.13 CUSIP and ISIN Numbers.

The Issuers in issuing the Notes may use either or both CUSIP or ISIN numbers (if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee shall use such CUSIP and ISIN numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Issuers will as promptly as practicable notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the CUSIP or ISIN numbers.

SECTION 2.14 Issuance of PIK Interest.

(a) Any PIK Interest on the Notes with respect to Notes represented by one or more Global Notes registered in the name of, or held by, the Depositary or its nominee on the relevant Record Date, is payable by increasing the principal amount of the outstanding Global Note by an amount equal to the amount of PIK Interest for the applicable Interest Period (rounded up to the nearest whole dollar) as provided in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee at least three (3) Business Days prior to the first day of such Interest Payment Date. On the applicable Interest Payment Date, the Trustee shall record such increase on the schedule to the Global Note and the Registrar shall record such increase in the Registrar’s books and record. Following an increase in the principal amount of the outstanding Global Notes as a result of a PIK Payment, the Notes will bear interest on such increased principal amount from and after the date of such PIK Payment.

(b) Any PIK Interest on the Notes with respect to Notes represented by certificated Notes is payable by issuing PIK Notes in certificated form in an aggregate principal amount equal to the amount of PIK Interest for the applicable Interest Period (rounded up to the nearest whole dollar). The Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order pursuant to Section 2.02 hereof, authenticate and deliver such PIK Notes in certificated form for original issuance to the Holders as of the relevant Record Date, as shown by the records of the register of Holders. Any PIK Notes issued in certificated form will be dated as of the applicable Interest Payment Date and will bear interest from and after such date.

ARTICLE 3

REDEMPTION

SECTION 3.01 Notices to Trustee.

If the Issuers elect to redeem Notes pursuant to Section 3.07, they shall notify the Trustee in writing of the Redemption Date and the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and the clause of this Indenture pursuant to which redemption shall occur.

The Issuers shall give each notice provided for in this Section 3.01 in an Officers’ Certificate at least 45 days before the Redemption Date (unless a shorter period shall be satisfactory to the Trustee).

SECTION 3.02 Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed or Purchased.

If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be redeemed pro rata, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion shall deem fair and appropriate in accordance with the Applicable Procedures; provided that no Note of $2,000 in principal amount or less shall be redeemed in part (or if a PIK Payment has been made, no Note of $1.00 in principal amount or less shall be redeemed in part).

The Trustee shall make the selection from the Notes outstanding and not previously called for redemption. Notes in denominations of $2,000 (or if a PIK Payment has been made, $1.00) in principal amount may only be redeemed in whole. The Trustee may select for redemption portions (equal to $2,000 in principal amount or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) (or if a PIK Payment has been made, equal to $1.00 in principal amount or any integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof) of Notes that have denominations larger than $2,000 (or if a PIK Payment has been made, $1.00) in principal amount. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption. The Trustee shall notify the Issuers and the Registrar promptly in writing of the Notes or portions of Notes to be called for redemption.

SECTION 3.03 Notice of Redemption.

With respect to any redemption of Notes pursuant to Section 3.07, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a Redemption Date, the Issuers shall send a notice of redemption by first class mail or by electronic mail in the case of Global Notes to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed.

The notice shall identify the Notes (including the CUSIP number) to be redeemed and shall state:

(a) the Redemption Date;

(b) the Redemption Price;

(d) that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent in order to collect the Redemption Price;

(e) that, unless the Issuers default in making the redemption payment, interest on Notes called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the Redemption Date and the only remaining right of the Holders is to receive payment of the Redemption Price plus accrued interest to the Redemption Date upon surrender of the Notes to the Paying Agent;

(f) that, if any Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount (equal to $2,000 in principal amount or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) (or if a PIK Payment has been made, equal to $1.00 in principal amount or any integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof) of such Note to be redeemed and that, on and after the Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be reissued; and

(g) that, if any Note contains a CUSIP or ISIN number as provided in Section 2.13, no representation is being made as to the correctness of the CUSIP or ISIN number either as printed on the Notes or as contained in the notice of redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes.

At the Issuers’ request (which request may be revoked by the Issuers at any time prior to the time at which the Trustee shall have given such notice to the Holders if such request is made at least 45 days prior to the Redemption Date), made in writing to the Trustee at least 45 days (or such shorter period as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) before a Redemption Date, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the name and at the expense of the Issuers. If, however, the Issuers give such notice to the Holders, the Issuers shall concurrently deliver to the Trustee a copy of such notice and an Officers’ Certificate stating that such notice has been given.

Any notice of redemption may, at the discretion of the Issuers, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including any sale of Equity Interests. If a redemption is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice of redemption shall describe each such condition and, if applicable, shall state that, in the Issuers’ discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, 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 satisfied by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed. In the event that any condition precedent included in a redemption notice fails to be satisfied by the applicable Redemption Date, the Issuers may revoke such redemption notice or delay the applicable Redemption Date by delivering notice to the Trustee and each Holder whose Notes were called for redemption of such revocation or delay and, in the case of a delay, of the new Redemption Date.

SECTION 3.04 Effect of Notice of Redemption.

Subject to the last paragraph of Section 3.03, once notice of redemption is mailed, Notes called for redemption become due and payable on the Redemption Date and at the Redemption Price. Upon surrender of any Notes to the Paying Agent, such Notes shall be paid at the Redemption Price, plus accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption Date.

Notice of redemption shall be deemed to be given when mailed, whether or not the Holder receives the notice. In any event, failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of Notes held by Holders to whom such notice was properly given.

SECTION 3.05 Deposit of Redemption or Purchase Price.

On or prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on any Redemption Date, the Issuers shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or, if an Issuer or a Subsidiary is acting as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 2.04) money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of and accrued interest (up to but not including the Redemption Date) on all Notes to be redeemed on that date other than Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on that date that have been delivered by Wise Intermediate Holdings to the Trustee for cancellation.

SECTION 3.06 Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part.

Upon surrender of any certificated Note that is redeemed in part, the Issuers shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder without service charge, a new certificated Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of such surrendered certificated Note.

SECTION 3.07 Optional Redemption.

(a) At any time prior to June 15, 2016, the Notes may be redeemed, in whole or in part, on one or more occasions at the option of the Issuers, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the Redemption Date.

(b) The Issuers may redeem the Notes at any time, and from time to time, on or after June 15, 2016 and prior to maturity, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice mailed by first-class mail to each Holder’s last address, as it appears in the Note Register, or sent electronically to the Depositary for Global Notes at the following Redemption Prices (expressed in percentages of principal amount), plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date that is prior to the Redemption Date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date), if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning on the dates set forth below:


Date	Redemption Price

(c) In addition, at any time prior to June 15, 2016, the Issuers may redeem on one or more occasions up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes originally issued under this Indenture (calculated after giving effect to the issuance of any Additional Notes and any PIK Notes) with the Net Cash Proceeds of one or more sales of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of Wise Intermediate Holdings or a contribution to the Issuer’s equity capital made with Net Cash Proceeds of a concurrent equity offering by Wise Intermediate Holdings’ direct or indirect parent, at a redemption price of 109.75% of their principal amount, plus accrued interest to, but not including, the Redemption Date; provided that at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes originally issued under this Indenture (calculated after giving effect to the issuance of any Additional Notes and any PIK Notes) remains outstanding after each such redemption and notice of any such redemption is mailed within 90 days of each such sale of Equity Interests.

(d) In addition to the Issuers’ rights to redeem the Notes as set forth above, the Issuers may purchase Notes in open-market transactions, tender offers or otherwise.

SECTION 3.08 Mandatory Redemption.

The Issuers will not be required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.

Subject to the last paragraph of Section 3.03, if notice of redemption has been given in the manner provided above, the Notes or portion of Notes specified in such notice to be redeemed shall become due and payable on the Redemption Date at the Redemption Price stated therein, together with accrued interest to such Redemption Date, and on and after such date (unless the Issuers shall default in the payment of such Notes at the Redemption Price and accrued interest to the Redemption Date, in which case the principal, until paid, shall bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed in the Notes), such Notes shall cease to accrue interest. Upon surrender of any Note for redemption in accordance with a notice of redemption, such Note shall be paid and redeemed by the Issuers at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption Date.

COVENANTS

SECTION 4.01 Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest.

The Issuers shall pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes on the dates and in the manner provided in the Notes and this Indenture. An installment of principal, premium, if any, or Cash Interest shall be considered paid on the date due if the

Trustee or Paying Agent (other than the Issuers or a Subsidiary of Wise Intermediate Holdings) holds on that date money designated for and sufficient to pay the installment. PIK Interest shall be considered paid (i) with respect to Notes represented by one or more Global Notes, on the date due if the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate in accordance with Section 2.14 hereof with respect to the relevant Interest Period or (ii) with respect to Notes represented by certificated Notes, on the date due if, on or prior to such date, PIK Notes duly executed by the Issuers together with an Authentication Order of the Issuers requesting the authentication of such PIK Notes are delivered to the Trustee. If Wise Intermediate Holdings or any Subsidiary of Wise Intermediate Holdings acts as Paying Agent, an installment of principal, premium, if any, or interest shall be considered paid on the due date if the entity acting as Paying Agent complies with Section 2.04. As provided in Section 6.12, upon any bankruptcy or reorganization procedure relative to the Issuers, the Trustee shall serve as the Paying Agent, if any, for the Notes.

The Issuers shall pay interest on overdue principal and premium, if any, and interest on overdue installments of interest, to the extent lawful, at the rate per annum specified in the Notes.

SECTION 4.02 Corporate Existence.

Subject to Article 5 of this Indenture, Wise Intermediate Holdings shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence and the existence of each of its Restricted Subsidiaries in accordance with the respective organizational documents of Wise Intermediate Holdings and each Restricted Subsidiary and the rights (whether pursuant to charter, partnership certificate, agreement, statute or otherwise), licenses and franchises of Wise Intermediate Holdings and each Restricted Subsidiary; provided that Wise Intermediate Holdings shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the existence of any Restricted Subsidiary (other than XxxXx), if the maintenance or preservation thereof is no longer desirable or necessary in the conduct of the business of Wise Intermediate Holdings and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

SECTION 4.03 Limitation on Indebtedness.

(a) Wise Intermediate Holdings will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, create, incur, assume or Guarantee the payment of any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) other than Permitted Indebtedness and Wise Intermediate Holdings will not issue any Disqualified Stock and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to issue any Disqualified Stock or preferred stock to any Person other than to Wise Intermediate Holdings or its Restricted Subsidiaries unless, after giving effect to the transaction, (i) with respect to Indebtedness incurred, or Disqualified Stock issued, by Wise Intermediate Holdings or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than Opco or any Opco Restricted Subsidiary) and any preferred stock issued by any Restricted Subsidiary (other than XxxXx, Opco or any Opco Restricted Subsidiary), Wise Intermediate Holdings’ Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the four full fiscal quarters immediately preceding the transaction for which financial statements are available immediately preceding the date of such transaction, taken as a single period, is 2.0 to 1.0 or greater, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom) as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred or the Disqualified Stock (or the

preferred stock, if applicable) had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such four-quarter period and (ii) with respect to Indebtedness incurred, or Disqualified Stock issued, by Opco or any Opco Restricted Subsidiary and any preferred stock issued by any Opco Restricted Subsidiary, Opco’s Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the four full fiscal quarters immediately preceding the transaction for which financial statements are available immediately preceding the date of such transaction, taken as a single period, is 2.0 to 1.0 or greater, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom) as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred or the Disqualified Stock (or the preferred stock, if applicable) had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such four-quarter period.

For purposes of determining any particular amount of Indebtedness under this Section 4.03, (x) obligations which constitute Indebtedness of more than one entity only need to be counted once, and (y) Guarantees, Liens or obligations with respect to letters of credit supporting Indebtedness otherwise included in the determination of such particular amount shall not be included. For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.03, if an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Indebtedness or may be incurred under the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Wise Intermediate Holdings may classify (and from time to time may reclassify, including pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio) the Indebtedness in its sole discretion.

The accrual of interest or preferred stock dividends, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, the reclassification of preferred stock as Indebtedness due to a change in accounting principles and the payment of dividends on preferred stock or Disqualified Stock in the form of additional shares of the same class of preferred stock or Disqualified Stock will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness or an issuance of preferred stock or Disqualified Stock for purposes of this covenant; provided, in each such case, that the amount thereof is included in Fixed Charges of Wise Intermediate Holdings or Opco, as the case may be, as applicable. For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be utilized, calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was incurred.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.03, (i) the maximum amount of Indebtedness that may be incurred pursuant to this Section 4.03 will not be deemed to be exceeded, with respect to any outstanding Indebtedness, due solely to the result of fluctuations in the exchange rates of currencies between the dates such non-U.S. dollar Indebtedness was incurred and the measurement date for purposes of this provision and (ii) a change in GAAP that results in an obligation of Wise Intermediate Holdings or any Restricted Subsidiary that exists at the time of such change, and is not theretofore classified as Indebtedness, becoming Indebtedness shall not be deemed an incurrence of such Indebtedness.

(c) The amount of any Indebtedness outstanding as of any date will be: (i) the accreted value of the Indebtedness, in the case of any Indebtedness issued with original issue discount; and (ii) the principal amount of the Indebtedness, in the case of any other Indebtedness.

(d) The Issuers and the Guarantors (if any) will not incur any Indebtedness if such Indebtedness is subordinate in right of payment to any other Indebtedness unless such Indebtedness is also subordinate in right of payment to the Notes or the applicable Subsidiary Guarantee (if any) to the same extent. For purposes of the foregoing, no Indebtedness will be deemed to be subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness solely by virtue of being unsecured, by virtue of being secured by different collateral or by virtue of the fact that the holders of any secured Indebtedness have entered into intercreditor agreements giving one or more of such holders priority over the other holders in the collateral held by them or with respect to control of remedies.

SECTION 4.04 Limitation on Restricted Payments.

(a) Wise Intermediate Holdings will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary, directly or indirectly, to make any Restricted Payment unless, at the time and after giving effect to the proposed Restricted Payment, the following conditions are met:

(B) 100% of (A) the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds and Fair Market Value of marketable securities received by Wise Intermediate Holdings on or after the Closing Date (i) as capital contributions or (ii) from the issuance and sale of (x) Equity Interests of Wise Intermediate Holdings to any Person or entity other than a Subsidiary of Wise Intermediate Holdings, excluding the issuance or sale of Disqualified Stock or (y) any other securities of Wise Intermediate Holdings, upon the conversion or exchange of such securities into Equity Interests of Wise Intermediate Holdings (including upon conversion of Indebtedness or upon conversion or exercise of options or warrants), other than Disqualified Stock, and (B) the Fair Market Value of any Replacement Assets to the extent acquired on or after the Closing Date in consideration of the issuance of Equity Interests of Wise Intermediate Holdings, other than Disqualified Stock, or as a capital contribution to Wise Intermediate Holdings; plus

(b) The provisions of Section 4.04(a) shall not prohibit the following (the “Excluded Payments”):

(xii) the repurchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement for value of any Indebtedness of Wise Intermediate Holdings or any Restricted Subsidiary that is subordinated to the Notes or any Subsidiary Guarantee pursuant to provisions similar to Section 4.07 or Section 4.09; provided that all Notes tendered by Holders in connection with an applicable Offer to Purchase have been repurchased, redeemed or acquired for value;

(xiii) the declaration and payment of dividends on Wise Intermediate Holdings’ Equity Interests (or a Restricted Payment to any direct or indirect parent entity to fund a payment of dividends on such entity’s Equity Interests), following the first public equity offering of such common stock after the Closing Date, of up to 6% per annum of Net Cash Proceeds received by (or, in the case of a Restricted Payment to a direct or indirect parent entity, contributed to the capital of) Wise Intermediate Holdings in or from any such public equity offering;

(8) any agreement as in effect on the Closing Date or any amendment thereto or renewal or modification thereof, so long as the amendment, renewal or modification, taken as a whole, is not materially more disadvantageous to Wise Intermediate Holdings and the Restricted Subsidiaries or the Holders than the agreement existing on the Closing Date (as determined in good faith by Wise Intermediate Holdings);

(9) transactions with (i) customers, clients, suppliers, joint ventures, joint venture partners, partnerships, partners, or purchasers or sellers of goods or services that so long as the terms of any such transactions meet the requirements of clause (a) of the first paragraph of this covenant (as determined by Wise Intermediate Holdings in good faith) and (ii) joint ventures, joint venture partners, partnerships or partners so long as the terms of any such transactions, taken as a whole, are not materially less favorable to Wise Intermediate Holdings or its Restricted Subsidiary participating in such joint venture or partnership than they are to other comparable joint venture participants or partners (as determined by Wise Intermediate Holdings in good faith);

(b) Any Lien created for the benefit of Holders pursuant to this Section 4.06 will be deemed automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of each of the Liens triggering the obligation to secure the Notes.

SECTION 4.07 Limitation on Asset Sales.

For purposes of this provision, any securities, notes or other obligations received by Wise Intermediate Holdings or any such Restricted Subsidiary that are converted by Wise Intermediate Holdings or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash within 180 days after receipt (to the extent of the cash received in such conversion) shall be deemed to be cash.

(b) Within 12 months after Wise Intermediate Holdings’ or any Restricted Subsidiary’s receipt of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale, Wise Intermediate Holdings or such Restricted Subsidiary, at its option, may apply the Net Cash Proceeds from such Asset Sale:

(i) to permanently repay (x) Senior Indebtedness of the Issuers (other than Indebtedness owed to Wise Intermediate Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) and, in the case of Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement or any other Credit Facility, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto or (y) Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary (other than XxxXx) and, in the case of Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement or any other Credit Facility, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto; provided that if Wise Intermediate Holdings or such Restricted Subsidiary shall so reduce obligations under any Senior Indebtedness that is not secured by a Lien permitted under this Indenture, the Issuers will, equally and ratably, reduce the obligations under the Notes by, at their option, (A) redeeming the Notes, (B) making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for an Offer to Purchase to all Holders to purchase their notes at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof; plus the amount of any accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased or (C) purchasing Notes through open market purchases (to the extent such purchases are at a price equal to or higher than the 100% of the principal amount thereof) in a manner that complies with this Indenture and applicable securities law;

(ii) to acquire (or enter into a legally binding agreement to acquire) all or substantially all of the assets of a Permitted Business, or Equity Interests of (x) a Restricted Subsidiary from a Person other than Wise Intermediate Holdings or a Restricted Subsidiary or (y) a Person engaged in such a business in an amount that will cause such Person to become a Restricted Subsidiary;

(iii) to make a capital expenditure (or enter into a legally binding agreement to make such a capital expenditure);

(iv) to invest the Net Cash Proceeds (or enter into a legally binding agreement to invest) in Replacement Assets; or

(v) to do any combination of the foregoing;

provided that Wise Intermediate Holdings and its Restricted Subsidiaries will be deemed to have complied with the provisions described in clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) above, if and to the extent that, within 12 months after the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds, Wise Intermediate Holdings (or one or more of its Restricted Subsidiaries) has entered into and not abandoned or rejected a binding agreement to apply such Net Cash Proceeds in accordance with the provisions described in clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) above, and such application is thereafter completed within 180 days after the end of such 12-month period.

The amount of such excess Net Cash Proceeds required to be applied (or to be committed to be applied) during such 12-month period as set forth in the preceding paragraph and not applied as so required by the end of such period, shall constitute “Excess Proceeds.”

When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $20.0 million, within thirty days thereof, or earlier at the option of the Issuers, the Issuers will make an Offer to Purchase to all Holders and to all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu in right of payment with the Notes (“Pari Passu Indebtedness”) containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Indenture with respect to asset sales, in each case, in respect of the maximum principal amount, on a pro rata basis, of the Notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness that may be repurchased by such Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Offer to Purchase will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes (and 100% of the principal amount or, if different, the accreted value of any such Pari Passu Indebtedness (if any)) plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase, and will be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Offer to Purchase, the Issuers may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture and such remaining amount shall not be added to any subsequent Excess Proceeds for any purpose under this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of the Notes and principal amount or, if different, accreted value of Notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness, if any, tendered into such Offer to Purchase exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee will select the Notes and the Issuers shall select such Pari Passu Indebtedness, if any, as the case may be, to be purchased on a pro rata basis, by lot or such other method as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate only with respect to the Notes in accordance with the Applicable Procedures (with, in each case, such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Issuers or the Trustee, as applicable, so that only Notes in minimum denominations of $2,000, or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof (or if a PIK Payment has been made, in minimum denominations of $1.00 and any integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof), will be purchased; provided that any unpurchased portion of a Note must be in a minimum denomination of $2,000, or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof (or if a PIK Payment has been made, in minimum denominations of $1.00 and any integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof)). Upon completion of each Offer to Purchase, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero.

Pending the final application of any such Net Cash Proceeds, the Issuers or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries may temporarily reduce revolving credit borrowings or otherwise invest such Net Cash Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by the terms of this Indenture.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuers shall not be required to apply in accordance with this Section 4.07 any Excess Proceeds received in respect of any Asset Sale by Opco or any Opco Restricted Subsidiary until such time as such entities are permitted in accordance with the terms of their Indebtedness to dividend or distribute an amount at least equal to such Excess Proceeds to Wise Intermediate Holdings.

(d) The Issuers will comply with Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, to the extent applicable, and any other applicable tender offer rules, securities laws or regulations in connection with an Offer to Purchase. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 4.07, the Issuers will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached their obligations under this Section 4.07 by virtue of such conflict.

SECTION 4.08 Future Guarantees.

The Notes will not be Guaranteed by any of the Issuers’ Subsidiaries on the Closing Date. After the Closing Date, Wise Intermediate Holdings will cause each Restricted Subsidiary (other than XxxXx) that Guarantees any Indebtedness of either Issuer (“Guaranteed Indebtedness”) within ten business days of the date on which such Restricted Subsidiary Guarantees such Guaranteed Indebtedness to execute and deliver a supplemental indenture in the form of Exhibit B pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary will unconditionally Guarantee, on a joint and several basis, the full and prompt payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes and all other obligations under this Indenture on the terms and conditions as set forth in this Indenture.

If the Guaranteed Indebtedness is (i) pari passu in right of payment with the Notes, then the Guarantee of such Guaranteed Indebtedness shall be pari passu in right of payment with, or subordinated to, the Subsidiary Guarantee or (ii) subordinated in right of payment to the Notes, then the Guarantee of such Guaranteed Indebtedness shall be subordinated in right of payment to the Subsidiary Guarantee at least to the extent that the Guaranteed Indebtedness is subordinated to the Notes.

SECTION 4.09 Purchase of Notes upon a Change of Control.

(a) The Issuers must commence, unless the Issuers have previously given an unconditional and irrevocable notice of redemption with respect to all of the outstanding Notes in accordance with Section 3.03 within 30 days of the occurrence of a Change of Control, and consummate an Offer to Purchase for all Notes then outstanding, at a purchase price equal to 101% of their principal amount (the “Change of Control Purchase Price”), plus accrued interest (if any) to, but not including, the Payment Date.

(b) Upon request, subject to applicable escheat laws, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall return to the Issuers any cash that remains unclaimed, together with interest or dividends, if any, thereon, held by them for the payment of the Change of Control Purchase Price; provided, however, that (x) to the extent that the aggregate amount of cash deposited by the Issuers exceeds the aggregate Change of Control Purchase Price of the Notes or portions thereof to be purchased, the Trustee shall hold such excess for the Issuers and (y) promptly after the Business Day following the Payment Date the Trustee shall return any such excess to the Issuers together with interest, if any, thereon.

(c) The Issuers shall comply, to the extent applicable, with the applicable tender offer rules, including Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other applicable securities laws or regulations in connection with an Offer to Purchase. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 4.09, the Issuers will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached their obligations under this Section 4.09 by virtue of such conflict.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuers will not be required to make an Offer to Purchase upon a Change of Control if a third party makes the Offer to Purchase, in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 4.09 applicable to an Offer to Purchase made by the Issuers and purchases all the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Offer to Purchase.

(2) applicable law, rules, regulations or orders;

(3) any agreement or instrument (including Acquired Indebtedness) applicable to or binding on a Person, or any property or assets, acquired by Wise Intermediate Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries as in effect at the time of such acquisition (except to the extent such agreement or instrument was entered into in connection with or in contemplation of such acquisition), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property or assets of the Person, or the property or assets, so acquired; provided that, in the case of such acquired Person’s Indebtedness, such Indebtedness was permitted to be incurred by the terms of the Notes and this Indenture, and any extensions, refinancings, renewals, amendments or replacements of such agreements; provided further that the encumbrances and restrictions in any such extensions, refinancings, renewals, amendments or replacements are not materially less favorable, taken as a whole (as determined by Wise Intermediate Holdings in good faith), to the Holders than those encumbrances or restrictions that are then in effect and that are being extended, refinanced, renewed, amended or replaced;

(11) customary restrictions imposed by an agreement to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of assets or Equity Interests to any person pending the closing of such sale, transfer or other disposition;

(12) encumbrances or restrictions with respect to a Securitization Entity in connection with a Qualified Securitization Transaction; provided, however, that such encumbrances and restrictions are necessary or advisable to effect the transactions contemplated under such Qualified Securitization Transaction in the good faith determination of Wise Intermediate Holdings; and

(13) any encumbrances or restrictions arising or agreed to in the ordinary course of business, and not relating to any Indebtedness, that Wise Intermediate Holdings determines in good faith do not, individually or in the aggregate, materially affect the Issuers’ ability to make future principal or interest payments on the Notes.

Nothing contained in this Section 4.11 shall prevent Wise Intermediate Holdings or any Restricted Subsidiary from (x) creating, incurring, assuming or suffering to exist any Liens otherwise permitted pursuant to Section 4.06 or (y) restricting the sale or other disposition of property or assets of Wise Intermediate Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that secure Indebtedness of Wise Intermediate Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries. For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.11, the subordination of loans or advances made to Wise Intermediate Holdings or a Restricted Subsidiary to other Indebtedness incurred by Wise Intermediate Holdings or any such Restricted Subsidiary shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make loans or advances.

SECTION 4.12 Payments for Consent.

Wise Intermediate Holdings will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration to or for the benefit of any Holder for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid and is paid to all Holders that consent, waive or agree to amend such terms and provisions in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreements.

SECTION 4.13 Provision of Financial Information.

(a) So long as any Notes are outstanding, Wise Intermediate Holdings will have its annual financial statements audited by a nationally recognized firm of independent accountants and will furnish to the Trustee and the Holders, within 45 days from the end of a quarterly period and 90 days from the end of Wise Intermediate Holdings’ fiscal year, all quarterly and annual financial statements in a form substantially similar to the form included in the Offering Memorandum prepared in accordance with GAAP and together with a “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for each such quarter or fiscal year and, with respect to the annual information only, an opinion on the annual financial statements by Wise Intermediate Holdings’ certified independent accountants; provided, however, that (1) such financial statements shall not be required to contain separate financial statements for any Guarantor (if any) other than, only if there are any Guarantors at such time, condensed consolidating footnote disclosure containing information with respect to Guarantors and Subsidiaries that are not guaranteeing the Notes, in each case on an aggregate basis and consistent with the presentation in the Offering Memorandum, (2) such reports shall not be required to comply with the rules, regulations and policies of the SEC with respect to any non-GAAP financial measures contained therein and (3) Wise Intermediate Holdings shall not be required to comply with Section 404 of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002.

(b) Wise Intermediate Holdings will distribute such financial statements and such reports (as well as the details regarding the conference call described below) electronically to (a) any Holder, (b) to any beneficial owner of Notes, (c) to any prospective investor who provides their e-mail address to Wise Intermediate Holdings and certifies that they are a QIB or (d) any securities analyst who provides their e-mail address to Wise Intermediate Holdings and certifies that they are a securities analyst. Wise Intermediate Holdings will also hold a quarterly conference call for the Holders of the Notes to discuss such financial information. The conference call will not be later than 10 Business Days from the time that Wise Intermediate Holdings distributes the financial information as set forth above. In addition, Wise Intermediate Holdings will provide to the Trustee and the Holders all current reports that would be required to be filed with or furnished to the SEC on Form 8-K if Wise Intermediate Holdings were required to file or furnish such reports, within 10 days following the occurrence of an event that would be required to be reported thereon; provided that no such current report will be required to be furnished if Wise Intermediate Holdings determines in its good faith judgment that such event is not material to Holders of the Notes.

(c) For so long as any of the Notes remain outstanding, Wise Intermediate Holdings will furnish to the Holders and to prospective investors that certify that they are QIBs, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act.

(d) If Wise Intermediate Holdings has designated any of its Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries, then, to the extent that any such Unrestricted Subsidiary or group of Unrestricted Subsidiaries would (but for its or their being designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or Subsidiaries) constitute a Significant Subsidiary or Subsidiaries, the quarterly and annual financial information required by Section 4.13(a) shall include a reasonably detailed presentation, either on the face of the financial statements or in the footnotes thereto, and in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” of the financial condition and results of operations of Wise Intermediate Holdings and its Restricted Subsidiaries separate from the financial condition and results of operations of the Unrestricted Subsidiaries of Wise Intermediate Holdings.

(e) In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, the financial statements, information and other information and documents required to be provided by Section 4.13(a) may be, rather than those of Wise Intermediate Holdings, those of Opco (so long as Wise Intermediate Holdings and its Subsidiaries (other than Opco and its Subsidiaries) do not conduct, transact or otherwise engage, or commit to conduct, transact or engage, in any business or operation, other than its direct and indirect ownership of all the Equity Interests in, and its management of, Opco and operations incidental thereto) or any direct or indirect parent of Wise Intermediate Holdings; provided that, if the financial information so furnished relates to Opco or such direct or indirect parent of Wise Intermediate Holdings, the same is accompanied by a reasonably detailed description of the quantitative differences between the information relating to (x) Opco and the Opco Restricted Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and the information relating to Wise Intermediate Holdings and its Restricted Subsidiaries on a stand-alone basis, on the other hand and/or (y) such parent, on the one hand, and the information relating to Wise Intermediate Holdings and its Restricted Subsidiaries on a stand-alone basis, on the other hand, as applicable. To the extent financial information, including any financial statements, of Opco or any direct or indirect parent of Wise Intermediate Holdings are substituted for those of Wise Intermediate Holdings in reliance on the foregoing sentence, the references in this Indenture to any financial statements of Wise Intermediate Holdings shall be deemed to refer to the financial statements of Opco or such direct or indirect parent of Wise Intermediate Holdings. From the Closing Date, the financial statements, information and other information to be provided pursuant to Section 4.13(a) shall be those of Opco unless and until the Issuers deliver written notice to the Trustee that such financial statements, information and other information to be provided shall be those of a different entity pursuant to this Section 4.13(e).

(f) Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt thereof will not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein, including the Issuers’ compliance with any of the covenants in this Indenture (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely on exclusively on an Officers’ Certificate).

SECTION 4.14 Statement by Officers as to Default.

In the event that any Officer becomes aware of any Default or Event of Default, the Issuers shall, within 5 Business Days, deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate specifying such Default or Event of Default.

SECTION 4.15 Payment of Taxes and Other Claims.

The Issuers shall pay or discharge and shall cause each of their Subsidiaries to pay or discharge, or cause to be paid or discharged, before the same shall become delinquent (i) all material taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed upon (a) the Issuers or any such Subsidiary, (b) the income or profits of any such Subsidiary which is a corporation or (c) the property of the Issuers or any such Subsidiary and (ii) all material lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies that, if unpaid, might by law become a lien upon the property of the Issuers or any such Subsidiary; provided that the Issuers shall not be required to pay or discharge, or cause to be paid or discharged, any such tax, assessment, charge or claim the amount, applicability or validity of which is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which adequate reserves have been established.

SECTION 4.16 Maintenance of Properties.

Wise Intermediate Holdings shall cause all properties used or useful in the conduct of its business or the business of its Restricted Subsidiaries to be maintained and kept in good condition, repair and working order and supplied with all necessary equipment and will cause to be made all necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements thereof, all as in the judgment of Wise Intermediate Holdings may be necessary so that the business carried on in connection therewith may be properly and advantageously conducted at all times; provided, that nothing in this Section 4.16 shall prevent Wise Intermediate Holdings or any Restricted Subsidiary from discontinuing the use, operation or maintenance of any of such properties or disposing of any of them, if such discontinuance or disposal is, in the judgment of Wise Intermediate Holdings, desirable in the conduct of the business of Wise Intermediate Holdings or such Restricted Subsidiary.

SECTION 4.17 Compliance Certificates.

Officers of Wise Intermediate Holdings shall certify, on or before a date not more than 90 days after the end of each fiscal year, that a review has been conducted of the activities of Wise Intermediate Holdings and its Restricted Subsidiaries and Wise Intermediate Holdings’ and its Restricted Subsidiaries’ performance under this Indenture and that, to their knowledge, the Issuers have fulfilled all obligations hereunder, or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default and the nature and status thereof. The Issuers shall also notify the Trustee in writing within five Business Days if any of them becomes aware of any default or defaults in the performance of any covenants or agreements under this Indenture and such default has not been remedied. For purposes of this Section 4.17, such compliance shall be determined without regard to any period of grace or requirement of

notice provided under this Indenture. If any of the Officers of the Issuers signing such certificate has knowledge of such a Default or Event of Default, the certificate shall describe any such Default or Event of Default and its status. The first certificate to be delivered pursuant to this Section 4.17 shall be for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2014.

SECTION 4.18 Waiver of Stay, Extension or Usury Laws.

The Issuers covenant (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) that they 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 law or other law that would prohibit or forgive the Issuers from paying all or any portion of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) the Issuers hereby expressly waive all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenant that they will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

SECTION 4.19 Maintenance of Office or Agency.

The Issuers shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange or for presentation for payment and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuers in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Issuers will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Issuers shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee.

The Issuers may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations. The Issuers shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

The Issuers hereby initially designate Wilmington Trust, National Association, Wilmington, Delaware, as such office of the Issuers in accordance with Section 2.03.

SECTION 4.20 Suspension of Covenants.

Following the first day:

(a) the Notes are rated Investment Grade by both of the Rating Agencies; and

(b) no Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture,

Wise Intermediate Holdings and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be subject to the provisions of Sections 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.07, 4.08, 4.11 and 5.01(a)(3) (collectively, the “Suspended Covenants”).

If at any time the credit rating on the Notes is downgraded below an Investment Grade rating by any Rating Agency, then the Suspended Covenants will thereafter be reinstated as if such covenants had never been suspended (the “Reinstatement Date”) and be applicable pursuant to the terms of this Indenture (including in connection with performing any calculation or assessment to determine compliance with the terms of this Indenture), unless and until the Notes subsequently have Investment Grade ratings from both of the Rating Agencies and no Default or Event of Default is in existence (in which event the Suspended Covenants shall no longer be in effect for such time that the Notes maintain an Investment Grade rating from both of the Rating Agencies and no Default or Event of Default is in existence); provided, however, that no Default, Event of Default or breach of any kind shall be deemed to exist under this Indenture, the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantees with respect to the Suspended Covenants based on, and none of Wise Intermediate Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries shall bear any liability for, any actions taken or events occurring during the Suspension Period (as defined below), regardless of whether such actions or events would have been permitted if the applicable Suspended Covenants remained in effect during such period. The period of time between the date of suspension of the covenants and the Reinstatement Date is referred to as the “Suspension Period.”

On the Reinstatement Date, all Indebtedness incurred during the Suspension Period will be classified to have been incurred pursuant to Section 4.03(a) or one of the clauses set forth in the definition of “Permitted Indebtedness” (to the extent such Indebtedness would be permitted to be incurred thereunder as of the Reinstatement Date and after giving effect to Indebtedness incurred prior to the Suspension Period and outstanding on the Reinstatement Date). To the extent such Indebtedness would not be so permitted to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.03(a) or the definition of “Permitted Indebtedness,” such Indebtedness will be deemed to have been outstanding on the Closing Date, so that it is classified under clause (1) of the definition of “Permitted Indebtedness.” Calculations made after the Reinstatement Date of the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 4.04 will be made as though Section 4.04 had been in effect since the Closing Date and throughout the Suspension Period. Accordingly, Restricted Payments made during the Suspension Period will reduce the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 4.04(a).

For purposes of Section 4.05, all agreements and arrangements entered into by Wise Intermediate Holdings and any Restricted Subsidiary with an Affiliate of Wise Intermediate Holdings during the Suspension Period prior to the Reinstatement Date will be deemed to have been entered into on or prior to the Closing Date and for purposes of Section 4.11, all contracts entered into during the Suspension Period prior to the Reinstatement Date that contain any of the restrictions contemplated by such covenant will be deemed to have been existing on the Closing Date.

During a Suspension Period, the Issuers may elect, by delivering written notice thereof to the Trustee, to suspend the Subsidiary Guarantees (if any at such time). On the Reinstatement Date or as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event more than 10 Business Days) thereafter, any Subsidiary Guarantee that was suspended will be reinstated.

During any Suspension Period, the Board of Directors of Wise Intermediate Holdings may not designate any of Wise Intermediate Holdings’ Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries pursuant to this Indenture.

Wise Intermediate Holdings shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of the existence, and of the termination, of any Suspension Period or Reinstatement Date; provided that the Trustee shall have no obligation to discover or verify the existence or termination of any Suspension Period or Reinstatement Date.

SECTION 4.21 Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

The Board of Directors of Wise Intermediate Holdings may designate any Restricted Subsidiary (including any newly acquired or newly formed Subsidiary of Wise Intermediate Holdings) to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary unless such Subsidiary owns any Equity Interests of, or owns or holds any Lien on any property of, Wise Intermediate Holdings or any Restricted Subsidiary; provided that (A) any Guarantee by Wise Intermediate Holdings or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Indebtedness of the Subsidiary being so designated shall be deemed an “incurrence” of such Indebtedness and an “Investment” by Wise Intermediate Holdings or such Restricted Subsidiary (or both, if applicable) at the time of such designation; (B) either (I) the Subsidiary to be so designated has total assets of $1,000 or less or (II) if such Subsidiary has assets greater than $1,000, such designation would be permitted under Section 4.04 and (C) if applicable, the incurrence of Indebtedness and the Investment referred to in clause (A) of this proviso would be permitted under Section 4.03 and Section 4.04. The Board of Directors of Wise Intermediate Holdings may designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that (a) immediately after giving pro forma effect to such designation, (i) Wise Intermediate Holdings would be able to incur at least $1.00 of Indebtedness under the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio described under Section 4.03(a) and (ii) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio would be equal to or greater than immediately prior to such designation; (b) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of or after giving effect to such designation and (c) all Liens and Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary outstanding immediately after such designation would, if incurred at such time, have been permitted to be incurred (and shall be deemed to have been incurred) for all purposes of this Indenture. Any such designation by the Board of Directors of Wise Intermediate Holdings shall be evidenced to the Trustee by promptly filing with the Trustee a copy of the resolution of the Board of Directors of Wise Intermediate Holdings giving effect to such designation and an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such designation complied with the foregoing provisions.

SUCCESSORS

SECTION 5.01 Consolidation, Merger or Sale of Assets.

(a) Each Issuer agrees not to consolidate or merge with or into any other entity, or sell, lease or convey all or substantially all of its assets to any other entity in any one or more transactions unless the following conditions are met:

(1) the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the “Surviving Entity”) (if not such Issuer) (A) is organized under the laws of the United States of America or any state or the District of Columbia; provided that if the Surviving Entity is not a corporation satisfying the requirements of this clause (A), there shall be an obligor or a co-obligor that is a corporation that satisfies the requirements of this clause (A) and (B) shall expressly assume, by an indenture supplemental hereto, executed and delivered to the Trustee, all of such Issuer’s obligations under the Notes and this Indenture (and any Subsidiary Guarantee will be confirmed as applying to such Surviving Entity’s obligations);

(2) immediately after giving effect to the transaction (and treating any Indebtedness which becomes an obligation of the Surviving Entity or any Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such transaction as having been incurred by such Surviving Entity or such Restricted Subsidiary at the time of such transaction), no Default or Event of Default under this Indenture may have occurred and be continuing;

(3) immediately after giving effect to the transaction (and treating any indebtedness which becomes an obligation of the Surviving Entity or any Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such transaction as having been incurred by such Surviving Entity or such Restricted Subsidiary at the time of such transaction), either (x) the Surviving Entity would be able to incur at least $1.00 of Indebtedness under the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio under Section 4.03(a) determined on a pro forma basis as if such transaction had occurred at the beginning of the immediately preceding four-quarter period; or (y) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Surviving Entity, determined on a pro forma basis as if such transaction had occurred at the beginning of the immediately preceding four-quarter period, would be equal to or greater than the actual Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for Wise Intermediate Holdings for the most recently completed four-quarter period prior to the transaction;

(4) at the time of the transaction, each Guarantor, if any, unless it is the other party to the transactions described above, will have by supplemental indenture confirmed that its Subsidiary Guarantee shall apply to such Person’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes; and

(5) Wise Intermediate Holdings must deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger or transfer and such supplemental indenture complies with this provision and that all conditions precedent provided for herein relating to such transaction have been complied with.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Issuer effects a consolidation, merger or sale, conveyance, assignment, transfer, lease or other disposition of substantially all of its assets, the condition set forth in clause (3) of this Section 5.01(a) shall not apply to a transaction involving a Surviving Entity that is otherwise subject to the foregoing provisions if: (A) (i) the Surviving Entity (1) was formed for the purpose of effecting such transaction, (2) did not engage in any business prior to such transaction, (3) immediately prior to such transaction had no indebtedness or liabilities, contingent or otherwise, of any kind whatsoever, (4) immediately after such transaction had no additional “indebtedness” or significant “liabilities,” contingent or otherwise, of any kind whatsoever in excess of that which such Issuer had immediately prior to such transaction and (5) immediately after such transaction was engaged in the same business as such Issuer was engaged in immediately prior to such transaction, and (ii) the holders of the outstanding voting shares of such Issuer immediately prior to the transaction own, directly or indirectly, the outstanding voting shares of the Surviving Entity immediately after the transaction in substantially the same proportion as before the transaction; or (B) the merger was affected solely in connection with changing the jurisdiction of organization of such Issuer.

(b) Each Guarantor (if any) will not, and the Issuers will not permit a Guarantor to, in one or more transactions, consolidate or merge with or into any other entity (other than the Issuers or any Guarantor) or sell, lease or convey all or substantially all of its assets to any other entity (other than the Issuers or any Guarantor), unless at the time and after giving effect thereto:

(i) (A) either (1) the Guarantor will be the continuing entity in the case of a consolidation or merger involving the Guarantor or (2) the Person formed by or surviving such consolidation or merger or the Person that acquires all or substantially all of the assets of the Guarantor on a consolidated basis will be a corporation, limited liability company, limited liability partnership, partnership or trust duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia or the jurisdiction of organization of the Guarantor and such Person expressly assumes, by a supplemental indenture all the obligations of such Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee and this Indenture and such Subsidiary Guarantee and Indenture will remain in full force and effect;

(B) after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists; or

(ii) the transaction is made in compliance with Section 4.07.

For purposes of this Section 5.01, if the sale, lease, conveyance, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of one or more Restricted Subsidiaries of Wise Intermediate Holdings, also constitutes the sale, lease, conveyance, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of Wise Intermediate Holdings and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, such disposition shall be deemed to be the sale, lease, conveyance, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of Wise Intermediate Holdings.

SECTION 5.02 Successor Substituted.

Upon any consolidation or merger, or any sale, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the property and assets of any Issuer or any Guarantor in accordance with Section 5.01 of this Indenture, the successor Person formed by such consolidation or into which such Issuer or Guarantor, as the case may be, is merged or to which such sale, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition is made shall succeed to and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, such Issuer or Guarantor, as the case may be, under this Indenture, the Notes and the related Subsidiary Guarantees (if any), as the case may be, with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as such Issuer or such Guarantor, as the case may be, herein; provided that such Issuer or such Guarantor, as the case may be, shall not be released from its obligation to pay the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes in the case of a lease of all or substantially all of its property and assets.

ARTICLE 6

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

SECTION 6.01 Events of Default.

An “Event of Default” wherever used herein, means any one of the following events:

Trustee, such default under such indenture or instrument shall be remedied or cured by such Issuer or such Significant Subsidiary, or waived by the applicable percentage of holders of such Indebtedness, then the Event of Default under this Indenture shall be deemed likewise to have been remedied, cured or waived; and provided further that if such default results from an action of the United States government or a foreign government which prevents the affected Issuer or Significant Subsidiary from performing its obligations under such agreement, indenture or instrument, the occurrence of such default will not be an Event of Default under this Indenture;

(e) one or more judgments, orders or decrees for the payment of money in excess of $20.0 million, either individually or in the aggregate, shall be entered against an Issuer or any Significant Subsidiaries and shall not be discharged, paid, stayed, subject to a negotiated settlement or subject to insurance, and there shall have been a period of 60 days during which a stay of enforcement of such judgment or order, by reason of an appeal or otherwise, shall not be in effect;

(f) a court having jurisdiction in the premises enters a decree or order for (A) relief in respect of an Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case under any applicable Bankruptcy Law or insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, (B) appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator or similar official with respect to an Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary or for all or substantially all of the property and assets of an Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary or (C) the winding up or liquidation of the affairs of an Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary other than pursuant to a merger or consolidation permitted by this Indenture and, in each case, such decree or order shall remain unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive days;

(g) an Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary (A) commences a voluntary case under any applicable Bankruptcy Law or insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or consents to the entry of an order for relief in an involuntary case under any such law, (B) consents to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator or similar official with respect to an Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary or for all or substantially all of the property and assets of an Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary or (C) effects any general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or

(h) any Subsidiary Guarantee of any Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries which collectively (as of the latest audited consolidated financial statements for Wise Intermediate Holdings) would constitute a Significant Subsidiary shall for any reason cease to be, or shall for any reason be asserted in writing by any Guarantor or Issuer not to be, in full force and effect and enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the extent permitted by this Indenture and any such Subsidiary Guarantee.

SECTION 6.02 Acceleration.

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (f) or (g) of Section 6.01 that occurs with respect to an Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary) occurs and is continuing under this Indenture, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes, then outstanding, by written notice to the Issuers (and to the Trustee if such notice is given by the Holders), may, and the Trustee at the request of such

Holders shall, declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on the Notes to be immediately due and payable. Upon a declaration of acceleration, such principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest shall be immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in clause (f) or (g) of Section 6.01 occurs with respect to an Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary, the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on the Notes then outstanding shall automatically become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.

SECTION 6.03 Other Remedies.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may, and at the direction of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes shall, pursue any available remedy by proceeding at law or in equity to collect the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture.

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding.

SECTION 6.04 Waiver of Past Defaults.

Subject to Sections 6.02, 6.07 and 9.02, the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes by written notice to the Issuers and to the Trustee, may waive all past defaults and rescind and annul a declaration of acceleration and its consequences (other than with respect to an Event of Default arising under Section 6.01(a) or (b)) if (x) all existing Events of Default, other than any Event of Default arising under Section 6.01(a) or (b), that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived and (y) the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction.

SECTION 6.05 Control by Majority.

The Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture, that may involve the Trustee in personal liability, or that the Trustee determines in good faith may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of Holders of Notes not joining in the giving of such direction and may take any other action it deems proper that is not inconsistent with any such direction received from Holders of Notes.

SECTION 6.06 Limitation on Suits.

A Holder may not pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless:

(a) the Holder gives the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default;

(b) the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

(c) such Holder or Holders offer the Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to the Trustee against any costs, liability or expense;

(d) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of indemnity or security; and

(e) during such 60-day period, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes do not give the Trustee a direction that is inconsistent with the request.

However, such limitations do not apply to the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, such Note or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment, on or after the due date expressed in the Notes, which right shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of the Holder.

A Holder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over such other Holder (it being understood that the Trustee shall have no responsibility to determine if such actions or forbearances are unduly prejudicial to such Holders).

SECTION 6.07 Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment.

The Trustee also shall comply with Trust Indenture Act Section 313(b)(2). The Trustee shall also transmit by mail all reports as required by Trust Indenture Act Section 313(c).

SECTION 7.07 Compensation and Indemnity.

The Issuers and any Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder as the parties shall agree in writing from time to time.

(d) evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee under this Indenture;

(f) provide for the issuance of Additional Notes or PIK Notes in accordance with this Indenture;

(g) provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in replacement of certificated Notes;

(h) in the event PIK Notes are issued in certificated form, to make appropriate amendments to this Indenture to reflect changes to minimum denomination of certificated PIK Notes, establish minimum redemption amounts for certificated PIK Notes and other changes necessary to administer the certificated PIK Notes; or

(i) conform the text of this Indenture, the Notes, the Subsidiary Guarantees (if any) to any provision of the “Description of the Notes” contained in the Offering Memorandum as evidenced in an Officers’ Certificate.

SECTION 9.02 With Consent of Holders of Notes.

Subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07, the Issuers, any Guarantor, any other obligor under the Notes and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Notes or any Subsidiary Guarantee with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (including Additional Notes and PIK Notes, if any) voting as a single class, and future compliance by the Issuers and each Guarantor party thereto, if applicable, with any provision of this Indenture, any Subsidiary Guarantee or the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including Additional Notes and PIK Notes, if any) voting as a single class.

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9.02, without the consent of each Holder of each outstanding Note affected, an amendment or waiver may not:

(a) change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any installment of interest on, any Note;

(b) reduce the principal amount of, or premium, if any, or interest on, any Note;

(c) change the optional redemption dates or optional redemption prices of the Notes from that stated under Section 3.07; provided, however, that the minimum number of days of notice of redemption that the Issuers must provide may be shortened with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes;

(d) change the place or currency of payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, any Note;

(e) impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or after the Stated Maturity (or, in the case of a redemption, on or after the Redemption Date) of any Note;

(f) release any Subsidiary Guarantee of a Significant Subsidiary except in compliance with the terms of this Indenture;

(g) amend or modify any of the provisions of this Indenture in any manner that subordinates the Notes issued thereunder in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Issuers or that subordinates any Subsidiary Guarantee in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Guarantor issuing any such Subsidiary Guarantee;

(h) waive a default in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes; or

(i) reduce the percentage or aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes the consent of whose Holders is necessary for waiver of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or for waiver of certain defaults.

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

SECTION 9.03 Reserved.

SECTION 9.04 Effect of Consents.

An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder; provided that any amendment or waiver that requires the consent of each affected Holder shall not become effective with respect to any non-consenting Holder.

The Issuers may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any amendment, supplement or waiver. If a record date is fixed, then, notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only such Persons, shall be entitled to consent to such amendment, supplement or waiver, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date.

SECTION 9.05 Notation on or Exchange of Notes.

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

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

SECTION 9.06 Trustee to Sign Amendments, Etc.

The Trustee shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. The Issuers may not sign an amendment, supplement or waiver until the Board of Directors of Wise Intermediate Holdings approves it. In executing any amendment, supplement or waiver, the Trustee shall receive and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in conclusively relying upon an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such amendment, supplement or waiver is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuers and any Guarantors party thereto, enforceable against them in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions, and complies with the provisions hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Opinion of Counsel will be required for the Trustee to execute any amendment or supplement adding a new Guarantor under this Indenture.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders of Notes under this Article 9 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

ARTICLE 10

FUTURE GUARANTEES

SECTION 10.01 Guarantee.

If the Notes are required to be Guaranteed pursuant to Section 4.08, each Guarantor shall, subject to this Article 10 and execution of a supplemental indenture in the form of Exhibit D hereto, jointly and severally, Guarantee to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Issuers hereunder or thereunder, that: (a) the principal of, interest, premium, if any, on the Notes shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Issuers to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder shall be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (b) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same shall be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. Failing payment

100

when due of any amount so Guaranteed or any performance so Guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor shall agree that this is a Guarantee of payment and not a Guarantee of collection.

Each Guarantor shall agree that their obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuers, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Guarantor shall waive diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuers, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuers, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and shall covenant that its Subsidiary Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture.

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

Each Guarantor shall further agree that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations Guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 for the purposes of its Subsidiary Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations Guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of such Subsidiary Guarantees. The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Subsidiary Guarantees.

Each Subsidiary Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Issuers for liquidation or reorganization, should the Issuers 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 Issuers’ 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 the Notes or Subsidiary Guarantees, 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.

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

101

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

As used in this Section 10.01, the term “Trustee” shall also include each of the Paying Agent, Registrar and Transfer Agent, as applicable.

SECTION 10.02 Limitation on Guarantor Liability.

Each Guarantor shall confirm, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to such Subsidiary Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and any Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of each Guarantor shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 10, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under applicable law. Each Guarantor that makes a payment under its Subsidiary Guarantee shall be entitled upon payment in full of all Guaranteed obligations under this Indenture to a contribution from each other Guarantor in an amount equal to such other Guarantor’s pro rata portion of such payment based on the respective net assets of all the Guarantors at the time of such payment determined in accordance with GAAP.

SECTION 10.03 Execution and Delivery.

To evidence its Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01, each Guarantor shall agree that this Indenture shall be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by the Chief Executive Officer, the President, the Chief Financial Officer, the Treasurer, the Controller, any Executive Vice President, any Senior Vice President, any Vice President, the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary of the Guarantor or the sole member of the Guarantor, as the case may be, or any other officers of such Guarantor or such sole member, as the case may be, acting at the direction of any such foregoing officer.

If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates a Note, the Subsidiary Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless.

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

None of the Issuers or the Guarantors shall be required to make a notation on any Note to reflect a Subsidiary Guarantee or any release, termination or discharge thereof.

102

SECTION 10.04 Subrogation.

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

SECTION 10.05 Benefits Acknowledged.

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

SECTION 10.06 Release of Guarantees.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, any Subsidiary Guarantee shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged without any act on the part of any Person upon:

(a) such Subsidiary ceasing to be a Restricted Subsidiary, or any sale, exchange or transfer, to any Person that is not a Restricted Subsidiary, of all of the Equity Interests in (including through merger or consolidation), or all or substantially all the assets of, such Restricted Subsidiary (which sale, exchange or transfer is not prohibited by this Indenture) or the designation of such Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, in each case, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture;

(b) the release or discharge of the Guarantee that resulted in the creation of such Subsidiary Guarantee, except a discharge or release by or as a result of payment under such Guarantee;

(c) the exercise by the Issuers of their legal defeasance or covenant defeasance option as described under Article 8 or if the Issuers’ obligations under this Indenture are discharged in accordance with Article 11; or

(d) such Subsidiary ceasing to Guarantee any other Indebtedness of the applicable Issuer (other than as a result of payment by such Subsidiary under such Guarantee).

ARTICLE 11
