“Capital Lease Obligation” means, at the time any determination is to be made, the amount of the liability in respect of a capital lease that would at that time be required to be capitalized on a statement of financial position prepared in accordance with GAAP, and the Stated Maturity thereof shall be the date of the last payment of rent or any other amount due under such lease prior to the first date upon which such lease may be prepaid by the lessee without payment of a penalty. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any lease (whether entered into before or after the Issue Date) that would have been classified as an operating lease pursuant to GAAP as in effect prior to January 1, 2019 shall be deemed not to be a capital lease or a financing lease.

“Capital Stock” means:

(a)            Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing. Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments or record or both are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer and the Guarantors.

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

(e)            The Issuer may set a record date for purposes of determining the identity of Holders entitled to make, give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to be made, or to vote on or consent to any action authorized or permitted to be taken by Holders; provided that the Issuer may not set a record date for, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to, the giving or making of any notice, declaration, request or direction referred to in clause (f) below.

Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Issuer, at their own expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Trustee in writing and to each Holder in the manner set forth in Section 12.02.

(f)            The Trustee may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to join in the giving or making of (1) any notice of Default under Section 6.01(a), (2) any declaration of acceleration referred to in Section 6.02, (3) any direction referred to in Section 6.05 or (4) any request to pursue a remedy as permitted in Section 6.06. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to join in such notice, declaration, request or direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless made, given or taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Notes or each affected Holder, as applicable, on such record date.

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

No such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action shall be effective hereunder unless made, given or taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date.

(j)            With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 1.04, the party hereto that sets such record date may designate any day as the “Expiration Date” and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided that no such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration Date is given to the other party hereto in writing, and to each Holder of Notes in the manner set forth in Section 12.02, on or prior to both the existing and the new Expiration Date. If an Expiration Date is not designated with respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 1.04, the party hereto which set such record date shall be deemed to have initially designated the 90th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to its right to change the Expiration Date as provided in this clause (j).

Section 1.05          Limited Condition Transactions; Measuring Compliance.

(a)            With respect to any (x) Investment or acquisition that is not conditioned on the availability of, or on obtaining, third-party financing for such Investment or acquisition (whether by merger, amalgamation, division, consolidation or other business combination or the acquisition of Capital Stock or otherwise), as applicable, and (y) redemption, repurchase, defeasance, satisfaction and discharge or repayment of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock requiring irrevocable notice (which may be conditional) in advance of such redemption, repurchase, defeasance, satisfaction and discharge or repayment (any transaction described in clauses (x) or (y), a “Limited Condition Transaction”), in each case for purposes of determining:

(1)            whether any Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock that is being incurred or issued in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction is permitted to be incurred or issued in compliance with Section 4.09;

(2)            whether any Lien being incurred in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction or to secure any such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock is permitted to be incurred in accordance with Section 4.10;

(3)            whether any other transaction undertaken or proposed to be undertaken in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction complies with the covenants or agreements contained in this Indenture or the Notes; and

(4)            any calculation of ratios, baskets or financial metrics, including the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Secured Net Leverage Ratio, Total Net Leverage Ratio, Consolidated Net Income, Consolidated EBITDA and/or Total Assets and, whether a Default or Event of Default exists in connection with the foregoing,

at the option of the Issuer, the date that the definitive agreement (or other relevant definitive documentation) for such Limited Condition Transaction is entered into (the “Transaction Agreement Date”) may be used as the applicable date of determination, as the case may be, in each case with such pro forma adjustments as are appropriate and consistent with the pro forma adjustment provisions set forth in the definition of “Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio,” and if the Issuer or the Restricted Subsidiaries could have taken such action on the relevant Transaction Agreement Date in compliance with the applicable ratios or other provisions, such provisions shall be deemed to have been complied with; provided, however, that the Issuer shall be entitled to subsequently elect, in its sole discretion, the date of consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction instead of the Transaction Agreement Date as the applicable date of determination; provided further that for the purpose of determining the amount available for Restricted Payments under clause (i) of Section 4.08(a)(C), Consolidated Net Income shall not include any Consolidated Net Income attributable to the target business or assets to be acquired in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction unless and until the closing of such Limited Condition Transaction shall have actually occurred. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Issuer elects to use the Transaction Agreement Date as the applicable date of determination in accordance with the foregoing, (a) any fluctuation or change in the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Secured Net Leverage Ratio, Total Net Leverage Ratio, Consolidated Net Income, Consolidated EBITDA or Total Assets of the Issuer, the target business or assets to be acquired subsequent to the Transaction Agreement Date and prior to the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, will not be taken into account for purposes of determining whether any Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Lien that is being incurred or issued in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction is permitted to be incurred or issued or in connection with compliance by the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries with any other provision of this Indenture or the Notes or any other action or transaction undertaken in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction and (b) until such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or such definitive agreements are terminated or the Issuer makes an election pursuant to the first proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, such Limited Condition Transaction and all transactions proposed to be undertaken in connection therewith (including the incurrence of Indebtedness and Liens) will be given pro forma effect when determining compliance of other transactions (including the incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock and Liens unrelated to such Investment, acquisition or repayment, repurchase or refinancing of Indebtedness) that are consummated after the Transaction Agreement Date and on or prior to the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction and any such transactions (including any incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock and the use of proceeds thereof) will be deemed to have occurred on the Transaction Agreement Date and outstanding thereafter for purposes of calculating any baskets or ratios under this Indenture after the date of such agreement and before the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction; provided that for purposes of any such calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Interest Expense will be calculated using an assumed interest rate for the Indebtedness to be incurred in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction based on the indicative interest margin (exclusive of any “flex” provisions) contained in any financing commitment documentation with respect to such Indebtedness or, if no such indicative interest margin exists, as reasonably determined by the Issuer in good faith.

(b)            Compliance with any requirement relating to absence of Default or Event of Default may be determined as of the Transaction Agreement Date and not as of any later date as would otherwise be required under this Indenture.

(c)            In the event an item of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock (or any portion thereof) is incurred or issued or any transaction (or any portion thereof) is entered into (or consummated), including the incurrence of any Lien or making of any Investment or Restricted Payment, in reliance on a provision of this Indenture under a restrictive covenant that does not require compliance with a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test, a Secured Net Leverage Ratio test or a Total Net Leverage Ratio test (any such amounts, the “Fixed Amounts”) on the same date that an item of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock (or any portion thereof) is incurred or issued or any transaction (or any portion thereof), including the incurrence of any Lien or making of any Investment or Restricted Payment, is entered into in reliance on a provision of this Indenture that requires compliance with a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test, a Secured Net Leverage Ratio test or a Total Net Leverage Ratio test (any such amounts, the “Incurrence Based Amounts”), then the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Secured Net Leverage Ratio or Total Net Leverage Ratio, as applicable, will be calculated with respect to such incurrence or issuance or entering (or consummation) without regard to any such Fixed Amounts. Unless the Issuer elects otherwise, the incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or entering into (or consummation of) any transaction, including the incurrence of any Lien or making of any Investment or Restricted Payment, will be deemed incurred or issued or entered into (or consummated) first as Incurrence Based Amounts to the extent permitted, with the balance incurred or issued as Fixed Amounts.

(d)            To the extent the date of any delivery of any document required to be delivered pursuant to any provision of this Indenture falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the applicable required date of delivery shall be deemed to be the next succeeding Business Day.

(e)            For purposes of determining the maturity date of any Indebtedness, customary bridge loans that are subject to customary conditions (including no payment or bankruptcy event of default) that would either automatically be extended as, converted into or required to be exchanged for permanent refinancings shall be deemed to have the maturity date as so extended, converted or exchanged.

Article 2
THE NOTES

Section 2.01          Form and Dating; Terms.

(a)            Provisions relating to the Initial Notes, Additional Notes and any other Notes issued under this Indenture are set forth in Appendix A, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Indenture. The Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall each be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Indenture. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, rules or agreements with national securities exchanges to which the Issuer or any Guarantor is subject, if any, or usage (provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Issuer). Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. The Notes shall be in denominations of €100,000 and integral multiples of €1,000 in excess thereof.

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

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

The Notes shall be subject to repurchase by the Issuer pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer as provided in Section 4.17 or a Change of Control Offer as provided in Section 4.16, and otherwise as not prohibited by this Indenture. The Notes shall not be redeemable, other than as provided in Article 3.

Additional Notes ranking pari passu with the Initial Notes may be created and issued from time to time by the Issuer 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 issue date, issue price and, if applicable, the first Interest Payment Date and the first date from which interest will accrue) as the Initial Notes; provided that the Issuer’s ability to issue Additional Notes shall be subject to the Issuer’s compliance with Section 4.09; provided, further that if any Additional Notes are not fungible with the Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such Additional Notes will be issued as a separate series under this Indenture and will have separate Common Code and ISIN numbers from the Notes. Any Additional Notes shall be issued with the benefit of an indenture supplemental to this Indenture. Unless otherwise specified and except for the purposes of Section 4.09, references to the Notes include any Additional Notes.

Section 2.02          Execution and Authentication.

(a)            At least one Officer shall execute the Notes on behalf of the Issuer by manual or facsimile or electronic (.pdf) 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.

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

(c)            On the Issue Date, the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a written order of the Issuer signed by an Officer (an “Authentication Order”), authenticate and deliver the Initial Notes. In addition, at any time and from time to time, the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate and deliver any Additional Notes in an aggregate principal amount specified in such Authentication Order for such Additional Notes issued hereunder.

(d)            The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Issuer 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, the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer.

(e)            The Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery upon a written order of the Issuer signed by one Officer of the Issuer (i) Initial Notes for original issue on the Issue Date in an aggregate principal amount of €300,000,000, (ii) subject to the terms of this Indenture, Additional Notes and (iii) any other Unrestricted Global Notes issued in exchange for any of the foregoing in accordance with this Indenture. Such order shall specify the amount of the Notes to be authenticated, the date on which the original issue of Notes is to be authenticated and whether the Notes are to be Initial Notes, Additional Notes or other Unrestricted Global Notes.

Section 2.03          Registrar, Transfer Agent and Paying Agent.

(a)            The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency outside of the United Kingdom where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”) and at least one office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”). The Issuer may have one or more additional Paying Agents. Offices or agencies of the Paying Agents, including the initial Paying Agent, may be maintained in London, United Kingdom. The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes (“Note Register”) and of their transfer and exchange (the “Transfer Agent”). The Registrar will maintain a register reflecting ownership of the Notes outstanding from time to time, if any, and together with the Transfer Agent, will facilitate transfers of the Notes on behalf of the Issuer. The Issuer may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents; provided that each co-registrar, if any, must be outside the United Kingdom. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar, the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent, and the term “Transfer Agent” includes any additional transfer agent. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without prior notice to any Holder. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Issuer fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Issuer or any of their Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

(b)            The Issuer initially appoints U.S. Bank Europe DAC, to act as Registrar and Transfer Agent for the Notes and as Depository with respect to the Global Notes, in each case in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof and of the Agency Agreement. The Issuer initially appoints U.S. Bank Europe DAC, UK Branch, to act as the Paying Agent for the Notes in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof and of the Agency Agreement. In acting hereunder and in connection with the Notes, the Paying Agent, the Registrar and the Transfer Agent shall act solely as agents of the Issuer, and will not thereby assume any obligations towards or relationship of agency or trust for or with any Holder. To the extent any provision under this Indenture conflicts with the express provisions of the Agency Agreement with respect to the rights, privileges, indemnities, duties or obligations of an Agent, the provisions of the Agency Agreement shall govern and be controlling. The rights, powers, duties, obligations and actions of each Agent under this Indenture are several and not joint or joint and several. The Agents shall have no obligation to act if they reasonably believe that they will incur costs for which they will not be reimbursed.

(c)            In no event may the Issuer appoint a Paying Agent in any member state of the European Union where the Paying Agent would be obligated to withhold or deduct taxes in connection with any payment made by it in relation to the Notes unless the Paying Agent would be so obligated if it were located in all other member states.

Section 2.04          Paying Agent to Hold Money.

The Issuer shall, no later than 11:00 a.m. (London time) one Business Day prior to each due date for the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on any of the Notes, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such amount, such sum to be held for the Holders entitled to the same, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act. The Issuer shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that such Paying Agent shall hold for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by such Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes, and shall notify the Trustee of any Default by the Issuer 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 Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, a Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money. If the 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 Issuer, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes.

Section 2.05          Holder Lists.

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

Section 2.06          Transfer and Exchange.

(a)            The Notes shall be issued in registered form and shall be transferable only upon the surrender of a Note for registration of transfer and in compliance with Appendix A.

(b)            To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02 or at the Registrar’s request.

(c)            No service charge shall be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange (other than pursuant Section 2.07), but the Holders shall be required to pay any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Section 2.10, Section 3.06, Section 4.16, Section 4.17 and Section 9.04).

(d)            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 Issuer, 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.

(e)            Neither the Issuer nor the Registrar shall be required (1) to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note during a period beginning at the opening of business 10 days before the day of any selection of Notes for redemption under Section 3.02 and ending at the close of business on the day of selection, (2) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note so selected for redemption, or tendered for repurchase (and not withdrawn) in connection with a Change of Control Offer or an Asset Sale Offer, in whole or in part, except the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of any Note being redeemed or repurchased in part or (3) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note between a Record Date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date.

(f)            Prior to due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any Note, the Trustee, any Agent and the Issuer 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, premium, if any, and (subject to the Record Date provisions of the Notes) interest on such Notes and for all other purposes, and none of the Trustee, any Agent or the Issuer shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

(g)            Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the office or agency of the Issuer designated pursuant to Section 4.02, the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more replacement Notes of any authorized denomination or denominations of a like aggregate principal amount.

(h)            At the option of the Holder, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of any authorized denomination or denominations of a like aggregate principal amount upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Global Notes or Definitive Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, deliver, the replacement Global Notes and Definitive Notes which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to in accordance with the provisions of Appendix A.

(i)            All certifications, certificates and opinions of counsel required to be submitted to the Registrar pursuant to this Section 2.06 to effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by mail or by facsimile or electronic transmission.

Section 2.07           Replacement Notes.

If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or if a Holder claims that its Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the ownership and loss, destruction or theft of such Note, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are otherwise met. If required by the Trustee, an Agent or the Issuer, indemnity, security and/or an indemnity bond must be provided by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Issuer to protect the Issuer, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuer or the Trustee may charge the Holder for the expenses of the Issuer and the Trustee in replacing a Note. Every replacement Note is a contractual obligation of the Issuer and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.07, in case any mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Issuer in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay such Note.

Section 2.08           Outstanding Notes.

(a)            The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by the Registrar, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Registrar in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Except as set forth Section 2.09, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds the Note; provided that Notes held by the Issuer, Parent or a Subsidiary of the Issuer or Parent will not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of Section 3.07(b).

(b)            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 protected purchaser, as such term is defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State of New York.

(c)            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 from and after the date of such payment.

(d)            If a Paying Agent (other than the Issuer, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on the maturity date, any redemption date or any date of purchase pursuant to an Offer to Purchase, money sufficient to pay Notes payable or to be redeemed or purchased 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 requisite principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes beneficially owned by the Issuer, or by any Affiliate of the Issuer, 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 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 the Issuer or any obligor upon the Notes or any Affiliate of the Issuer or of such other obligor.

Section 2.10           Temporary Notes.

Until definitive Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of Definitive Notes but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, 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 Issuer 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 the Registrar and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall destroy cancelled Notes in accordance with its customary procedures (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act). Certification of the destruction of all cancelled Notes shall, upon the written request of the Issuer, be delivered to the Issuer. The Issuer may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

Section 2.12           Defaulted Interest.

(a)            If the Issuer defaults 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 and in Section 4.01. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such defaulted interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held by the Trustee 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 Issuer of such special record date. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Issuer (or, upon the written request of the Issuer, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuer) shall mail or deliver by electronic transmission in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depository, or cause to be mailed or delivered by electronic transmission in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depository to each Holder a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid.

(b)            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 interest, which were carried by such other Note.

Section 2.13           Common Code and ISIN Numbers.

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

Article 3
REDEMPTION

Section 3.01           Notices to Trustee.

If the Issuer elects to redeem Notes pursuant to Section 3.07, they shall furnish to the Trustee, at least three Business Days before notice of redemption is required to be mailed or delivered or caused to be mailed or delivered to Holders pursuant to Section 3.03 (unless a shorter notice period shall be agreed to by the Trustee) but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, an Officer’s Certificate setting forth (1) the paragraph or subparagraph of such Note or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the redemption shall occur, (2) the redemption date, (3) the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (4) the redemption price, if then ascertainable.

Section 3.02           Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed or Purchased.

(a)            If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed pursuant to Section 3.07 or purchased in an Offer to Purchase at any time, the Trustee, in accordance with the applicable procedures of Clearstream and Euroclear, shall select the Notes to be redeemed or purchased on a pro rata basis, or by such other method that approximates a pro rata selection as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate, unless otherwise required by law or the applicable procedures of the Depository. In the event of partial redemption or purchase by lot, the particular Notes to be redeemed or purchased shall be selected, unless otherwise provided herein, not less than 10 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date by the Trustee from the then outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption or purchase.

(b)            The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer in writing of the Notes selected for redemption or purchase and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption or purchase, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed or purchased. Notes and portions of Notes selected shall be in amounts of €100,000 or integral multiples of €1,000; provided that if, following such redemption or purchase, the remaining principal amount of such Note outstanding immediately after such redemption or purchase would be less than €100,000, then the portion of such Note redeemed or purchased shall be reduced so that the remaining principal amount of such Notes outstanding immediately after such repurchase is €100,000. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption or purchase also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase.

(c)            After the redemption date or purchase date, upon surrender of a Note to be redeemed or purchased in part only, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of the original Note, representing the same Indebtedness to the extent not redeemed or not purchased, shall be issued in the name of the Holder of the Notes upon cancellation of the original Note (or appropriate book entries shall be made to reflect such partial redemption).

Section 3.03           Notice of Redemption.

(a)            The Issuer shall mail or deliver by electronic transmission in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depository, or cause to be mailed (or delivered by electronic transmission in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depository) notices of redemption of Notes not less than 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed pursuant to this Article at such Holder’s registered address or otherwise in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depository, except that redemption notices may be mailed or delivered more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with Article 8 or Article 11. Except as set forth in Section 3.07(i), notices of redemption may not be conditional.

(b)            The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed (including Common Code and ISIN numbers, if applicable) and shall state:

(1)            the redemption date;

(2)            the redemption price, including the portion thereof representing any accrued and unpaid interest; provided that in connection with a redemption under Section 3.07(a), the notice need not set forth the redemption price but only the manner of calculation thereof;

(3)            if any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the portion of the principal amount of that Note that is to be redeemed;

(4)            that interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes to be redeemed on and after the redemption date;

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

(6)            that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price;

(7)            that, unless the Issuer defaults in making such redemption payment or the Paying Agent is prohibited from making such payment pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, interest on Notes called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date;

(8)            the paragraph or subparagraph of the Notes or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed; and

(9)            that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the Common Code or ISIN numbers, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes; and

(10)            if applicable, any condition to such redemption.

(c)            At the Issuer’s written request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Issuer’s name and at the Issuer’s expense; provided that the Issuer shall have requested that the Trustee give such notice and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in Section 3.03(b) in the Officer’s Certificate furnished to the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.01.

(d)            If and for so long as any Notes are listed on the Exchange, and if and to the extent the rules of the Exchange so require, the Issuer will notify the Exchange of such notice of redemption to the Holders under this Indenture and, in connection with any such redemption, the Issuer will notify the Exchange of any principal amount of Notes remaining outstanding following such redemption.

Section 3.04           Effect of Notice of Redemption.

Once notice of redemption is sent in accordance with Section 3.03, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the redemption date at the redemption price (except as provided for in Section 3.07(i)). The notice, if mailed or delivered by electronic transmission in a manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to give such notice or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Note designated for redemption in whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Note. Subject to Section 3.05, on and after the redemption date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption.

Section 3.05           Deposit of Redemption or Purchase Price.

(a)            No later than 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the redemption or purchase date (or such later time as such date to which the Trustee or the Paying Agent may reasonably agree), the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption or purchase price of and accrued and unpaid interest on all Notes to be redeemed or purchased on that date. If a Note is redeemed or purchased on or after a Record Date but on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, then any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Holder of record on such Record Date. The Paying Agent shall promptly deliver to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed or repurchased the applicable redemption or purchase price thereof and accrued and unpaid interest thereon. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Issuer any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Issuer in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption or purchase price of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, all Notes to be redeemed or purchased.

(b)            If the Issuer complies with the provisions of Section 3.05(a), on and after the redemption or purchase date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase. If any Note called for redemption or purchase shall not be so paid upon surrender for redemption or purchase because of the failure of the Issuer to comply with Section 3.05(a), interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption or purchase date until such principal is paid, and, to the extent lawful, on any interest accrued to the redemption or purchase date not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01.

Section 3.06           Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part.

Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed or purchased in part, the Issuer shall issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and upon receipt of an Authentication Order, deliver to the Holder (or cause to be transferred by book entry) at the expense of the Issuer a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered representing the same Indebtedness to the extent not redeemed or purchased; provided that each new Note shall be in a principal amount of €100,000 or an integral multiple of €1,000 in excess thereof. It is understood that, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, only an Authentication Order and not an Opinion of Counsel or Officer’s Certificate is required for the Trustee to authenticate such new Note.

Section 3.07           Optional Redemption.

(a)            At any time and from time to time prior to June 1, 2028, the Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, upon not less than 10 days’ nor more than 60 days’ notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable date of redemption, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant Record Date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date. Promptly after the determination thereof, the Issuer shall give the Trustee notice of the redemption price provided for in this Section 3.07(a), and neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall be responsible for such calculation or have an obligation to verify such calculation.

(b)            At any time and from time to time prior to June 1, 2028, the Issuer may redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under this Indenture, upon not less than 10 days’ nor more than 60 days’ notice, at a redemption price of 105.000% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant Record Date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date, with the Net Cash Proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings; provided that (1) at least 50% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes originally issued under this Indenture (calculated excluding Notes held by the Issuer and its Affiliates) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption (except to the extent otherwise repurchased or redeemed at such time in accordance with the terms of this Indenture); and (2) the redemption occurs within 120 days of the date of the closing of the related Equity Offering.

(c)            Except pursuant to clause (a), (b), (e) or (g) of this Section 3.07, the Notes will not be redeemable at the Issuer’s option prior to June 1, 2028.

(d)            At any time and from time to time on or after June 1, 2028, the Issuer may redeem all or a part of the Notes, upon not less than 10 days’ nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes redeemed, to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning on June 1 of the years indicated below, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant Record Date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date:

Year	Percentage
2028		102.500	%
2029		101.125	%
2030 and thereafter		100.000	%

(e)            The Notes may be redeemed, in whole but not in part, at the option of the Issuer, at any time at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date of redemption, if either the Issuer or a Guarantor is, has become or would become obligated to pay, on the next date on which any amount would be payable with respect to the Notes or a Note Guarantee, as applicable, any Additional Amounts (or to make a reimbursement envisioned under Section 4.12) as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws or treaties (including any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of any Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, which change or amendment is announced or becomes effective on or after the Issue Date (or, if the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction did not become a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction until after the Issue Date, after such later date), or as a result of any change in or amendment to any relevant policy or position or interpretation of any such laws or treaties, or judicial decision rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction, on or after the Issue Date (whether or not taken or reached with respect to the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries), and such obligation to pay Additional Amounts or reimbursement cannot be avoided by the taking of reasonable measures by the Issuer or the applicable Guarantor, as the case may be; provided that changing the jurisdiction of any of the Payors is not a reasonable measure for purposes of this Section 3.07(e) and no notice of such redemption will be given earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the relevant Payor(s) would be obliged to pay such Additional Amounts.

(f)            Prior to giving any notice of redemption of the Notes pursuant Section 3.07(e), the Issuer will deliver to the Trustee:

(1)            an Officer’s Certificate stating that the Issuer is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to the right of the Issuer so to redeem have occurred and the obligation to pay Additional Amounts or reimbursement, as the case may be, cannot be avoided by the taking of reasonable measures by the Issuer or the applicable Guarantor, as the case may be; and

(2)            a written tax opinion of a law or accounting firm reasonably acceptable to the Trustee, that the Issuer or any Guarantor, as the case may be, have or will become obliged to pay Additional Amounts or reimbursement as a result of such change or amendment.

The Trustee will accept such Officer’s Certificate and opinion as sufficient evidence of the existence and satisfaction of the conditions precedent as described above, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on the Holders. Such Officer’s Certificate and opinion will be made available by the Trustee for inspection by the Holders.

(g)            In the event that Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes accept a tender offer for the Notes, an Asset Sale Offer or a Change of Control Offer and the Issuer (or, in the case of a Change of Control Offer, a third party making the offer as described in Section 4.16(e)) purchases all of the Notes held by such Holders, the Issuer (or the third party offeror, as applicable) will have the right, upon not less than 10 days’ nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following the purchase pursuant to such tender offer, Asset Sale Offer or Change of Control Offer, to redeem (in the case of the Issuer) or purchase (in the case of a third-party offeror) all of the Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price or purchase price, as the case may be, equal to the tender offer purchase price, the Asset Sale Offer purchase price or the Change of Control Payment, as applicable (which may be less than par and shall exclude any early tender premium or any consent payment), plus, to the extent not included in the tender offer purchase price, the Asset Sale Offer purchase price or the Change of Control Payment, accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes that remain outstanding, to, but excluding, the date of redemption (subject to the right of Holders on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date).

(h)            Any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.01 through Section 3.06.

(i)            Any redemption notice in connection with this Section 3.07 may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including the completion of any offering of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness or any Equity Offering, contribution, Change of Control, Asset Sale or other transaction. In addition, if such redemption notice is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall state that, in the Issuer’s sole discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Issuer in its sole discretion), or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be modified or rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the redemption date, or by the redemption date so delayed (which may exceed 60 days from the date of the redemption notice is mailed or delivered), and that such redemption provisions may be adjusted to comply with any depositary requirements. For the avoidance of doubt, such notice of redemption may be extended, if such conditions precedent have not been satisfied or waived by the Issuer, by providing notice to the Holders.

(j)            The Issuer’s actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. Neither the Trustee nor the paying agent will have any obligation to calculate or verify the calculation of the amount of the redemption price.

Section 3.08           Mandatory Redemption.

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

The Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries may acquire Notes by means other than a redemption, whether by tender offer, exchange offer, open-market purchases, negotiated transactions, private agreement or otherwise at any price in accordance with applicable securities legislation, so long as such acquisition does not violate the terms of this Indenture.

Section 3.09           Offers to Repurchase by Application of Excess Proceeds.

(a)            In the event that, pursuant to Section 4.17, the Issuer is required to commence an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer will follow the procedures specified below.

(b)            The Asset Sale Offer will remain open for the Asset Sale Offer Period. No later than the Asset Sale Purchase Date, the Issuer will apply all Excess Proceeds to the purchase of the Asset Sale Offer Amount, or, if less than the Asset Sale Offer Amount (and, if applicable, Pari Passu Indebtedness) has been so validly tendered, all Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness validly tendered in response to the Asset Sale Offer. Payment for any Notes so purchased will be made in the same manner as interest payments on the Notes are made pursuant to Section 2.04 and Section 4.01.

(c)            If the Asset Sale Purchase Date is on or after a Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest up to but excluding the Asset Sale Purchase Date, shall be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such Record Date, and no other interest shall be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer.

(d)            Upon the commencement of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer shall mail or deliver a notice to each of the Holders or otherwise deliver such notice in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depository, with a copy to the Trustee. The notice shall contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. The Asset Sale Offer shall be made to all Holders and, if required, all holders of Pari Passu Indebtedness. The notice, which shall govern the terms of the Asset Sale Offer, shall state:

(1)            that an Asset Sale Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3.09 and Section 4.17 and the expiration time of the Asset Sale Offer Period;

(2)            the Asset Sale Offer Amount, the purchase price, including the portion thereof representing any accrued and unpaid interest, and the Asset Sale Purchase Date;

(3)            that Notes must be tendered in integral multiples of €1,000 (subject to clause (8) below), and any Note not properly tendered will remain outstanding and will continue to accrue interest;

(4)            that, unless the Issuer defaults in making the payment, any Note accepted for payment pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer will cease to accrue interest on and after the Asset Sale Purchase Date;

(5)            that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to any Asset Sale Offer shall be required to surrender the Note, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to such Note completed, the Paying Agent specified in the notice at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Asset Sale Purchase Date;

(6)            that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Issuer, the Depository or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives at the address specified in the notice, not later than the expiration of the Asset Sale Offer Period, a telegram, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Notes the Holder tendered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its tendered Notes and its election to have such Note purchased;

(7)            that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness surrendered by the holders thereof exceeds the Asset Sale Offer Amount, then the Notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness will be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the aggregate accreted value or principal amount, as applicable, of the Notes or such Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered and the selection of the Notes for purchase shall be made on a pro rata basis, or by such other method that approximates a pro rata selection as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate, unless otherwise required by law or the applicable procedures of the Depository, although no Note having a principal amount of €100,000 shall be purchased in part;

(8)            that Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered (the unpurchased portion of the Notes must be equal to €100,000 or an integral multiple of €1,000 in excess thereof); and

(9)            the other procedures, as determined by the Issuer, consistent with this Section 3.09 that a Holder must follow.

(e)            On or before the Asset Sale Purchase Date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary or as otherwise provided in Section 4.17(c), the Asset Sale Offer Amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness or portions thereof validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer, or, if less than the Asset Sale Offer Amount has been validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, all Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness so tendered, in the case of the Notes, in whole number multiples of €1,000; provided that if, following repurchase of a portion of a Note, the remaining principal amount of such Note outstanding immediately after such repurchase would be less than €100,000, then the portion of such Note so repurchased shall be reduced so that the remaining principal amount of such Note outstanding immediately after such repurchase is €100,000. The Issuer will deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee the Notes so accepted and an Officer’s Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions thereof so accepted and that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Issuer in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.09. In addition, the Issuer will deliver all certificates and notes required, if any, by the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness.

(f)            The Paying Agent or the Issuer, as the case may be, will promptly, but in no event later than five Business Days after termination of the Asset Sale Offer Period, mail or deliver to each tendering Holder or holder or lender of Pari Passu Indebtedness, as the case may be, an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes or the Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn by such holder or lender, as the case may be, and accepted by the Issuer for purchase, and the Issuer will promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, will authenticate and mail or deliver (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) such new Note to such Holder (it being understood that, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, no Opinion of Counsel or Officer’s Certificate is required for the Trustee to authenticate and mail or deliver such new Note) in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered; provided that each such new Note will be in a principal amount of €100,000 or an integral multiple of €1,000 in excess thereof. In addition, the Issuer will take any and all other actions required by the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness. Any Note not so accepted will be promptly mailed or delivered by the Issuer to the Holder thereof. The Issuer will publicly announce the results of the Asset Sale Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Asset Sale Purchase Date.

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

Other than as specifically provided in this Section 3.09 or Section 4.17, any purchase pursuant to this Section 3.09 shall be made pursuant to the applicable provisions of Section 3.01 through Section 3.06.

The Issuer shall 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 Issuer 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 office of the Registrar as provided for herein.

The Issuer may also from time to time designate additional 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.

Section 4.04           Stay, Extension and Usury Laws.

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

(3)            promptly from time to time after the occurrence of an event required to be therein reported, such other information containing substantially the same information that would be required to be contained in filings with the SEC on Form 8-K, in accordance with the requirements of such Form 8-K as of the Issue Date, under Items 1.01 (Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement), 1.03 (Bankruptcy or Receivership), 2.01 (Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets), 4.01 (Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant), 4.02 (Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review), 5.01 (Changes in Control of Registrant), and 5.03(b) (Changes in Fiscal Year), if the Issuer were required to file such reports; provided, however, that:

(B)            in no event will such reports be required to comply with Section 302, Section 404 or Section 906 of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act of 2002, or related Items 307 and 308 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC;

(C)            in no event will such reports be required to comply with Item 302 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC;

(E)            in no event will such reports be required to comply with Regulation G under the Exchange Act or Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC with respect to any non-GAAP financial measures contained therein;

(F)            no such reports referenced under clause (3) above will be required to be furnished if the Issuer determines in its good faith judgment that such event is not material to the Holders or the business, assets, operations or financial position of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole;

(G)            in no event will such reports be required to comply with Item 601 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC (with respect to exhibits) or, with respect to reports referenced in clause (3) above, to include as an exhibit copies of any agreements, financial statements or other items that would be required to be filed as exhibits to a current report on Form 8-K, except for agreements evidencing material Indebtedness (excluding any schedules thereto);

(H)            trade secrets and other confidential information that is competitively sensitive in the good faith and reasonable determination of the Issuer may be excluded from any disclosures; and

(I)            such information will not be required to contain any “segment reporting.”

(b)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, the financial statements, information, auditors’ reports and other documents and information required to be provided pursuant to the first paragraph of this covenant may be, rather than those of the Issuer, those of (a) any successor of the Issuer, (b) any Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer that, together with its consolidated Subsidiaries, constitutes substantially all of the assets of the Issuer and its consolidated Subsidiaries (“Qualified Reporting Subsidiary”) or (c) any direct or indirect parent of the Issuer; provided that, if the financial information required to be provided pursuant to the first paragraph of this covenant relates to such Qualified Reporting Subsidiary or parent of the Issuer, such financial information will be accompanied by consolidating information (which need not be audited), which may be posted to the website of the Issuer or on Intralinks, SyndTrak, ClearPar or any comparable password protected online data system, that explains in reasonable detail (in the good faith judgment of senior management of the Issuer) the differences between the information relating to such Qualified Reporting Subsidiary or parent, on the one hand, and the information relating to the Issuer and its Subsidiaries on a stand-alone basis, on the other hand. For the avoidance of doubt, the consolidating information referred to in the proviso in the preceding sentence need not be audited or reviewed by the auditors.

(c)            If the Issuer has designated any of its Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries and such Unrestricted Subsidiaries, either individually or collectively, would otherwise have been a Significant Subsidiary, then the annual and quarterly financial information required by the preceding paragraphs shall include a reasonably detailed presentation (which need not be audited or reviewed by the auditors), as determined in good faith by senior management of the Issuer, either on the face of the financial statements or in the footnotes to the financial statements and in the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section, of the financial condition and results of operations of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries separate from the financial condition and results of operations of the Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

(d)            The Issuer will make available such information and such reports, in each case by posting such information on its website, on Intralinks, SyndTrak, ClearPar or any comparable password-protected online data system that will require a confidentiality acknowledgment, and will make such information readily available to any Holder, any beneficial owner of the Notes, any bona fide prospective investor in the Notes (which prospective investors will be limited to “qualified institutional buyers” within the meaning of Rule 144A of the Securities Act and non-U.S. persons within the meaning of Regulation S under the Securities Act that certify their status as such to the reasonable satisfaction of the Issuer), any bona fide securities analyst (to the extent providing analysis of investment in the Notes to investors and prospective investors therein) or any bona fide market maker in the Notes; provided that each such Holder, beneficial owner of Notes, prospective investor, security analyst or market maker will agree to (1) treat all such reports (and the information contained therein) as confidential, (2) in the case of each such Holder, beneficial owner of Notes or prospective investor, not use such reports (and the information contained therein) for any purpose other than their investment or potential investment in the Notes, and (3) not publicly disclose or distribute any such reports (and the information contained therein), in each case except to the extent that any such information contained in any such reports is already public or made public by Parent.

(e)            To the extent not satisfied by the reports required by this Section 4.06, the Issuer will furnish to Holders thereof and prospective investors in the Notes, upon their request, the information, if any, required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) (or any successor provision) of the Securities Act.

(f)            The Issuer will be deemed to have furnished the reports referred to in the first paragraph of this Section 4.06 if the Issuer, a Qualified Reporting Subsidiary or a direct or indirect parent of the Issuer has filed reports or registration statements containing such information with the SEC.

(18)            the incurrence by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of additional Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock in an aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) at any one time outstanding, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or discharge any Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock incurred pursuant to this clause (18), not to exceed the greater of (i) $225.0 million and (ii) 7.5% of Total Assets (calculated as at the time of the incurrence of such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock), plus, in the case of any Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness permitted under this clause (18)(a) and without duplication, any Refinancing Expenses;

(19)            the Incurrence of Indebtedness or the issuance of Disqualified Stock arising from agreements of the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries providing for indemnification, earnouts, adjustment of purchase or acquisition price or similar obligations, in each case, incurred or issued in connection with the acquisition or disposition of any business, assets or a Subsidiary of the Issuer in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, other than guarantees of Indebtedness Incurred or Disqualified Stock issued by any Person acquiring all or any portion of such business, assets or Subsidiary for the purpose of financing such acquisition;

(20)            Indebtedness incurred or Disqualified Stock issued by the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries to the extent that the net proceeds thereof are promptly deposited with the Trustee to satisfy and discharge the Notes in accordance with this Indenture or the trustee under the Existing Notes in accordance with the indenture governing the Existing Notes, as applicable; and

(21)            Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock consisting of obligations of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary under deferred compensation or other similar arrangements assumed or otherwise incurred by such Person in connection with any Investment not prohibited by this Indenture and for the benefit of any officers or employees retained following the consummation of such Investment.

(1)            in the event that an item of proposed Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (21) of Section 4.09(b), or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.09(a), the Issuer will be permitted to divide and classify (or later redivide and reclassify) such item of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock in whole or in part in any manner that complies with this Section 4.09, including by allocation to more than one other type of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock; provided that Indebtedness under the Credit Facilities that is outstanding on the Issue Date will be deemed to have been incurred on such date under clause (1) of Section 4.09(b);

(2)            the principal amount of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock outstanding under any clause of this covenant will be determined after giving effect to the application of proceeds of any such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock to refinance any such other Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock;

(3)            the outstanding principal amount of any particular Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock shall be counted only once, and any obligations arising under any Guarantee, Lien, letter of credit or similar instrument supporting such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock shall not be double-counted;

(4)            (A) Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock of any Person (i) existing at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary or is merged into, amalgamated with, divided into or consolidated with the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or (ii) assumed in connection with the acquisition of assets from such Person, or (B) Indebtedness secured by a Lien encumbering any asset acquired by such Person (any Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock described in the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), “Acquired Debt”) shall be deemed to have been incurred or issued by a Restricted Subsidiary at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that any such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock that is redeemed, defeased, retired or otherwise repaid at the time of or immediately upon the consummation of the transaction by which such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer (or is merged into, amalgamated with, divided into or consolidated with the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be) will be deemed not to have been incurred or issued for the purposes of this Section 4.09;

(5)            in the event that the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary enters into or increases commitments under a revolving credit facility, delayed draw facility or other committed debt financing, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, the Total Net Leverage Ratio or the Secured Net Leverage Ratio, as applicable, for borrowings and reborrowings thereunder (including the issuance and creation of letters of credit thereunder) will, at the Issuer’s option as elected on the date the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, enters into or increases such commitments, either (a) be determined on the date of such facility or such increase in commitments (assuming that the full amount thereof has been borrowed as of such date), and, if such Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Total Net Leverage Ratio or Secured Net Leverage Ratio, as applicable, is satisfied with respect thereto at such time, any borrowing or reborrowing thereunder (and the issuance and creation of letters of credit thereunder) will be permitted under this covenant irrespective of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, the Total Net Leverage Ratio or the Secured Net Leverage Ratio, as applicable, at the time of any borrowing or reborrowing (or issuance or creation of letters of credit thereunder) so long as such elected amount is deemed outstanding in full thereafter until such commitments are terminated or such election is revoked (the elected committed amount permitted to be borrowed or reborrowed (and the issuance and creation of letters of credit thereunder) on a date pursuant to the operation of this subclause (a) is, until revoked, referred to herein as the “Reserved Debt Amount”); provided, that the Issuer may revoke an election of the Reserved Debt Amount at any time in its sole discretion; or (b) be determined on the date such amount is borrowed pursuant to any such facility or increased commitment; and

(6)            the accrual of interest, 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, and the payment of dividends or the making of any distribution on Disqualified Stock in the form of additional shares of the same class of Disqualified Stock or as an increase in liquidation preference will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness or an issuance of Disqualified Stock for purposes of this Section 4.09; provided, in each such case, that the amount thereof is included in Fixed Charges of the Issuer as accrued.

(d)            For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar or other currency-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar or other currency-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit, delayed draw or other committed Indebtedness, or first issued, in the case of Disqualified Stock; provided that if such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar or other currency-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar or other currency-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock being refinanced, plus any Refinancing Expenses. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.09, the maximum amount of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock that the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries may incur pursuant to this Section 4.09 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies. The principal amount of any Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

(e)            Neither the Issuer nor any Guarantor will incur any additional Indebtedness (including Permitted Debt) that is contractually subordinated in right of payment to any Indebtedness of the Issuer or such Guarantor, as the case may be, unless such additional Indebtedness is also contractually subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or the applicable Note Guarantee, as the case may be, on substantially identical terms. Under this Indenture, no Indebtedness will be deemed to be contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness solely by virtue of being unsecured or by virtue of being secured on a junior priority basis.

(f)            If any Indebtedness is incurred, or Disqualified Stock is issued, in reliance on a basket measured by reference to a percentage of Total Assets, and any refinancing thereof would cause the percentage of Total Assets to be exceeded if calculated based on the Total Assets on the date of such refinancing, such percentage of Total Assets will not be deemed to be exceeded to the extent the principal amount of such newly incurred Indebtedness or the liquidation preference of such newly issued Disqualified Stock does not exceed the sum of (i) the principal amount of such Indebtedness or the liquidation preference of such Disqualified Stock being refinanced, extended, replaced, refunded, renewed or defeased plus (ii) any Refinancing Expenses.

Section 4.10           Liens.

The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien securing Indebtedness on any of their assets now owned or hereafter acquired, except Permitted Liens, unless all payments due under this Indenture and the Notes are secured on an equal and ratable basis with (or prior to) the Obligations so secured until such time as such Obligations are no longer secured by a Lien.

Section 4.11           Additional Note Guarantees.

(a)            The Issuer will cause each Restricted Subsidiary that is or becomes an obligor (whether as a borrower or as a guarantor) in respect of Indebtedness under the Credit Facilities (or as a borrower or as a guarantor of Indebtedness represented by any replacement or refinancing of all or a portion of the Indebtedness under the Credit Facilities (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, the Notes)) to provide a Note Guarantee within 30 days.

(b)            Each Restricted Subsidiary that is or becomes a Guarantor on or after the Issue Date shall remain a Guarantor for all purposes of this Indenture until its Note Guarantee is released pursuant to Section 10.06.

Section 4.12           Additional Amounts.

(a)            All payments made by or on behalf of either of the Issuer or any Guarantor (the Issuer, any Guarantor, and any Person making a payment on their behalf, each a “Payor” and collectively, the “Payors”) under or with respect to the Notes or any Note Guarantee will be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for or on account of Taxes imposed or levied by or on behalf of any jurisdiction in which such Payor is organized, resident or carrying on business for tax purposes or from or through which such Payor (or its agents) makes any payment on the Notes or any Note Guarantee or any department or political subdivision thereof (each, a “Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction”), unless such Payor is required to withhold or deduct Taxes by law or by the interpretation or administration thereof. If a Payor is so required to withhold or deduct any amount for or on account of Taxes from any payment made under or with respect to the Notes or any Note Guarantee, such Payor, subject to the exceptions stated below, will pay such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary such that the amount received in respect of such payment by each Holder or Beneficial Holder after such withholding or deduction (including withholding or deduction attributable to Additional Amounts payable hereunder but excluding Taxes on net income) will not be less than the amount the Holder or Beneficial Holder, as the case may be, would have received if such Taxes had not been required to be so withheld or deducted.

(b)            A Payor will not, however, pay Additional Amounts to a Holder or Beneficial Holder with respect to:

(1)            Taxes giving rise to such Additional Amounts that are imposed by reason of the Holder or the Beneficial Holder (or between a fiduciary, settler, beneficiary, partner, member or shareholder of, or possessor of power over, such Holder or Beneficial Holder, if such Holder or Beneficial Holder is an estate, nominee, trust, partnership, or corporation) being considered as:

(A)            having a present or former connection with the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, other than by the mere acquisition or holding of such Note, the enforcement of rights thereunder or the receipt of payment in respect thereof;

(B)            being or having been engaged in a trade or business in the United States or having or having had a permanent establishment in the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction;

(C)            being or having been a foreign or domestic personal holding company, a passive foreign investment company, a controlled foreign corporation or a foreign controlled foreign corporation for U.S. income tax purposes or a corporation that has accumulated earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax;

(D)            being or having been a “10-percent shareholder” of the Issuer as defined in Section 871(h)(3) of the Code or any successor provision; or

(E)            being or having been a bank receiving payments on an extension of credit made pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary course of its trade or business, as described in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code or any successor provisions;

(2)            Taxes giving rise to such Additional Amounts that would not have been imposed but for the failure of such Holder or Beneficial Holder, to the extent such Holder or Beneficial Holder is legally eligible to do so, to timely satisfy any certification, identification, information, documentation or other reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction or otherwise establishing the right to the benefit of an exemption from, or reduction in the rate of, withholding or deduction, after receiving a reasonable written advance request from any Payor to so comply, if such compliance is required by statute, treaty, regulation or administrative practice of a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction as a precondition to exemption from, or reduction in the rate of deduction or withholding of, such Taxes imposed by the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction;

(3)            any Taxes that are payable otherwise than by deduction or withholding from a payment of principal, premium or interest on or with respect to a Note or Note Guarantee;

(4)            estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer, personal property or any similar Taxes;

(5)            Taxes imposed with respect to any payment on a Note to any Person who is a fiduciary or partnership or Person other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment and to the extent the Taxes giving rise to such Additional Amounts would not have been imposed on such payment had the Holder been the Person who is the beneficial owner of such Note;

(6)            Taxes imposed on, or deducted or withheld from, payments in respect of the Notes if such payments could have been made without such imposition, deduction or withholding of such Taxes had such Notes been presented for payment (where presentation is required) within 30 days after the date on which such payments or such Notes became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever is later (except to the extent such Holder or Beneficial Holder would have been entitled to such Additional Amounts had such Notes been presented on the last day of such 30-day period);

(7)            Taxes imposed in connection with a Note presented for payment (where presentation is permitted or required for payment) by or on behalf of a Holder or Beneficial Holder who would have been able to avoid such Tax by presenting the relevant Note to, or otherwise accepting payment from, another paying agent;

(8)            Taxes imposed or withheld pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code, as of the Issue Date (or any amended or successor version of such sections), any regulations promulgated thereunder, any official interpretations thereof, any similar law or regulation adopted pursuant to an intergovernmental agreement between a non-U.S. jurisdiction and the United States with respect to the foregoing or any agreements entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b)(1) of the Code; or

(9)            any combination of the foregoing items (1) through (8).

(c)            The Payor will pay any stamp, issue, registration, court, documentation, excise or other similar taxes, charges and duties, including any interest, penalties and any similar liabilities with respect thereto, imposed by any Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction at any time in respect of the execution, issuance, registration or delivery of the Notes, any Note Guarantee or any other document or instrument referred to thereunder and any such taxes, charges or duties imposed by any Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction on any payments made pursuant to the Notes or any Note Guarantee or as a result of, or in connection with, the enforcement of the Notes, any Note Guarantee and/or any other such document or instrument.

(d)            The Payor will pay the amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Taxing Authority on a timely basis in accordance with applicable law. The Payor will make commercially reasonable efforts to obtain certified copies of tax receipts evidencing the payment of any Taxes so deducted or withheld from the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction. Upon receiving a reasonable written advance request from the Trustee or the Paying Agent, the Payor will furnish to the Trustee or the Paying Agent, as applicable, within 60 days after the date the payment of any Taxes so deducted or withheld is due pursuant to applicable law, either certified copies of tax receipts evidencing such payment or, if such receipts are not obtainable using reasonable efforts, other evidence of such payments as is satisfactory to the Trustee or the Paying Agent, as applicable.

(e)            At least 30 calendar days prior to each date on which any payment under or with respect to the Notes or any Note Guarantee is due and payable, if a Payor will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to such payment (unless such obligation to pay Additional Amounts arises after the 35th day prior to the date on which such payment is due and payable, in which case it will be promptly thereafter), the Payor will deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that such Additional Amounts will be payable and the amounts so payable and will set forth such other information necessary to enable the Trustee or the Paying Agent to pay such Additional Amounts to Holders on the payment date.

(f)            The Payors, jointly and severally, will indemnify and hold harmless the Holders and Beneficial Holders, and, upon written request of any Holder or Beneficial Holder, reimburse such Holder or Beneficial Holder for the amount of (i) any Taxes levied or imposed by a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction and payable by such Holder or Beneficial Holder in connection with payments made under or with respect to the Notes held by such Holder or Beneficial Holder or under any Note Guarantee; and (ii) any Taxes levied or imposed with respect to any reimbursement under the foregoing clause (i) or this clause (ii), so that the net amount received by such Holder or Beneficial Holder after such reimbursement will not be less than the net amount such Holder or Beneficial Holder would have received if the Taxes giving rise to the reimbursement described in clauses (i) and/or (ii) had not been imposed; provided, however, that the indemnification or reimbursement obligations provided for in this paragraph shall not extend to Taxes for which the applicable Holder or Beneficial Holder would not have been eligible to receive payment of Additional Amounts hereunder by virtue of clauses (1) through (8) of Section 4.12(b) if the Payor had been required to withhold or deduct from such payments or to the extent such Holder or Beneficial Holder received Additional Amounts with respect to such payments.

(g)            The obligations described under this Section 4.12 will survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of this Indenture and will apply mutatis mutandis to any successor Person to any Payor and to any jurisdiction in which such successor is organized or is otherwise resident or doing business for tax purposes or any jurisdiction from or through which payment is made by such successor or its respective agents. Whenever this Indenture refers to, in any context, the payment of principal, premium, if any, interest or any other amount payable under or with respect to any Note or Note Guarantee, such reference shall include the payment of Additional Amounts or indemnification payments pursuant to this Section 4.12, if applicable.

Section 4.13           [Reserved].

Section 4.14           Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

(a)            The Issuer may designate any Subsidiary of the Issuer that is a Restricted Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary; provided that:

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

(2)            at the time of the designation, the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries could make a Restricted Payment in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the Subsidiary so designated in compliance with Section 4.08;

(3)            all the Indebtedness of such Subsidiary shall, at the time of such designation and at all times thereafter, consist of Non-Recourse Debt; and

(4)            such Subsidiary (or any of its Subsidiaries) does not own any Equity Interests or Indebtedness of, or own or hold any Lien on any property of, the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer.

Any such designation will be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate certifying that such designation complied with the preceding conditions. If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet the preceding requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it will thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of this Indenture, and any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary will be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary as of such date.

(b)            The Issuer may designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that:

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

(2)            such designation will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary, and such designation will only be permitted if such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 4.09;

(3)            the aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments owned by the Unrestricted Subsidiary so designated will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and any such designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time in compliance with Section 4.08; and

(4)            all Liens upon property and assets of such Unrestricted Subsidiary existing at the time of such designation would be permitted under Section 4.10.

Section 4.15           Transactions with Affiliates.

(a)            The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Issuer (each, an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate consideration in excess of $25.0 million for any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions, unless:

(1)            the Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are no less favorable in the aggregate to the Issuer or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person; and

(2)            in the case of an Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions where the aggregate consideration exceeds $50.0 million, the terms of such transaction have been approved in good faith by the Chief Financial Officer of the Issuer, as confirmed in an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee.

(b)            The following items will not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of Section 4.15(a):

(1)            transactions between or among the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries;

(2)            any employment agreement, employee benefit plan, officer or director indemnification agreement or any similar arrangement entered into by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business and payments pursuant thereto;

(4)            payment of reasonable directors’ fees;

(5)            any issuance of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Issuer to its Affiliates, or the receipt by the Issuer of any capital contribution from its shareholders or Affiliates;

(6)            Restricted Payments that do not violate the provisions of Section 4.08 and Permitted Investments;

(7)            transactions between the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and any Person that is an Affiliate solely because one or more of its directors or officers is also a director or officer of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary; provided that such director abstains from voting as a director of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary on any such transaction involving such other Person;

(8)            any transaction in the ordinary course of business with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Issuer) that is an Affiliate of the Issuer solely because the Issuer owns, directly or through a Restricted Subsidiary, an Equity Interest in, or controls, such Person;

(9)            the entering into of a tax sharing agreement, or payments pursuant thereto, between the Issuer and/or one or more Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any other Person with which the Issuer or such Subsidiaries are required or permitted to file a consolidated tax return or with which the Issuer or such Subsidiaries are part of a consolidated group for tax purposes to be used by such Person to pay taxes, and which payments by the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries are not in excess of the tax liabilities that would have been payable by them on a stand-alone basis;

(10)            Guarantees of performance by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer’s Unrestricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business, except for Guarantees of Indebtedness;

(11)            transactions with customers, clients, suppliers, contractors, joint venture partners or purchasers or sellers of goods or services, or transactions otherwise relating to the purchase or sale of goods or services, in each case in the ordinary course of business or consistent with industry practice and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture that are fair to the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries, in the reasonable determination of the Board of Directors or the senior management of the Issuer, or are on terms at least as favorable as might reasonably have been obtained at such time from an unaffiliated party;

(12)            payments to or from, and transactions with, any joint venture or Unrestricted Subsidiary in the ordinary course of business or consistent with industry practice (including any Cash Management Obligations related thereto);

(13)            any lease entered into between the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, as lessee, and any Affiliate of the Issuer, as lessor, and transactions pursuant to that lease which lease is approved by the Board of Directors or senior management of the Issuer in good faith;

(14)            intellectual property licenses in the ordinary course of business or consistent with industry practice;

(15)            transactions permitted by, and complying with, Section 5.01 solely for the purpose of reincorporating the Issuer or a Guarantor in a new jurisdiction;

(16)            transactions undertaken in good faith (as determined by the Board of Directors or certified by senior management of the Issuer in an Officer’s Certificate) for the purposes of improving the consolidated tax efficiency of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries and not for the purpose of circumventing any covenant set forth in this Indenture;

(17)            (a) pledges and other transfers of Equity Interests in Unrestricted Subsidiaries and (b) any transactions with an Affiliate in which the consideration paid consists solely of Equity Interests of the Issuer;

(18)            (a) investments by Affiliates in securities or Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (and payment of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such Affiliates in connection therewith) so long as the investment is being offered by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary generally to other investors on the same or more favorable terms and (b) a repurchase of Notes held by an Affiliate of the Issuer if, in the case of an Affiliate that is not a Restricted Subsidiary, such Notes are repurchased on the same terms as have been offered to all Holders that are not Affiliates of the Issuer;

(19)            transactions in respect of which the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries delivers to the Trustee a letter from an independent financial advisor stating that such transaction is fair to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiaries from a financial point of view or stating that the terms are not materially less favorable, when taken as a whole, than those that might reasonably have been obtained by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiaries in a comparable transaction at such time on an arm’s length basis from a Person that is not an Affiliate; and

(20)            any transaction between the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and any Person that is an Affiliate which is specifically disclosed in the Offering Memorandum.

Section 4.16           Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control Triggering Event.

(a)            If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, the Issuer shall be required to make an offer to each Holder to repurchase all or any part (equal to €100,000 or an integral multiple of €1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes in the manner described below (the “Change of Control Offer”). In the Change of Control Offer, the Issuer will offer a payment (the “Change of Control Payment”) in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to, but excluding, the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date. Prior to or within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuer will deliver electronically or mail by first-class mail, postage prepaid, a notice to each Holder at such Holder’s registered address or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of the Depository (with a copy to the Trustee) (i) describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event, (ii) offering to repurchase Notes on the Change of Control Payment Date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 10 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered, (iii) if such notice is given in advance of the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, stating that the Change of Control Offer is conditioned upon the occurrence of such Change of Control Triggering Event and briefly describing the transaction with respect to which a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control and (iv) describing the procedures that Holders must follow to tender Notes for payment and to withdraw an election to tender Notes.

(b)            On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful:

(1)            accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes (in minimum denominations of €100,000 and integral multiples of €1,000) properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; provided that if, following repurchase of a portion of a Note, the remaining principal amount of such Note outstanding immediately after such repurchase would be less than €100,000, then the portion of such Note so repurchased shall be reduced so that the remaining principal amount of such Note outstanding immediately after such repurchase is €100,000;

(2)            deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and

(3)            deliver or cause to be delivered for cancellation to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Issuer.

(c)            On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Paying Agent will promptly cause each Holder that properly tendered Notes in the Change of Control Offer to be paid the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Issuer will execute and issue, and, upon receipt of a written instruction from the Issuer, the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder, a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that new Notes will only be issued in minimum amounts of €100,000 and integral multiples of €1,000 in excess thereof. The Issuer will announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

(d)            If the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after a Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest will be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such Record Date, and no other interest will be payable to Holders who tender pursuant to the Change of Control Offer.

(e)            Notwithstanding clause (a) of this Section 4.16, the Issuer will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control Triggering Event if (1) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 4.16 applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer or (2) notice of redemption has been given pursuant Section 3.07, which may be subject to the consummation of the Change of Control Triggering Event, unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, a Change of Control Offer by the Issuer or a third party may be made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event, conditioned upon the occurrence of such Change of Control Triggering Event, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Change of Control Offer is made.

(f)            The Issuer will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act to the extent Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act is applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.16, the Issuer will comply with Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the provisions of this Section 4.16 by virtue of such compliance.

(g)            Other than as specifically provided in this Section 4.16, any purchase pursuant to this Section 4.16 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.02, Section 3.05 and Section 3.06.

(h)            If and for so long as the Notes are listed on the Exchange and if and to the extent that the rules of the Exchange so require, the Issuer will notify the Exchange of any Change of Control Offer.

(i)            Neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall have any obligation to independently determine or verify if an event has occurred or notify the Holders of any event dependent upon the rating of the Notes, or if the rating on the Notes has been changed, suspended or withdrawn by any rating agency.

Section 4.17           Asset Sales.

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

(1)            the Issuer (or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at the time of the Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value (measured as of the date of the definitive agreement relating to such Asset Sale) of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of; and

(2)            except in the case of a Permitted Asset Swap, if the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of have a Fair Market Value in excess of $75.0 million, at least 75% of the consideration received in the Asset Sale, together with all consideration received in other Asset Sales since the Issue Date (on a cumulative basis) by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents. For purposes of this provision, each of the following will be deemed to be cash:

(A)            any liabilities of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Note Guarantee), as shown on the Issuer’s most recent internally available annual or quarterly balance sheet (or in the notes thereto), that are assumed, forgiven or otherwise extinguished by the transferee of any such assets and from which the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary has been unconditionally released by all applicable creditors in writing;

(B)            any securities, notes or other obligations received by the Issuer or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are within 180 days of the applicable Asset Sale, subject to ordinary settlement periods, converted by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash, to the extent of the cash received in that conversion; and

(C)            any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Issuer or any such Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate Fair Market Value, taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (C) (other than items received and not yet liquidated pursuant to clause (B) above that are at the time outstanding), not to exceed the greater of $225.0 million and 7.5% of Total Assets at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-cash Consideration, with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value.

(b)            Within 450 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, the Issuer (or any Restricted Subsidiary) may apply an amount equal to such Net Proceeds to any combination of the following purposes:

(1)            to permanently repay, prepay, redeem or repurchase any Indebtedness (a) under the Credit Facilities or (b) that is secured by a Lien (other than any such Indebtedness that is subordinate in right of payment to the Notes or any Note Guarantee), and if the Indebtedness repaid is revolving credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly permanently reduce commitments with respect thereto;

(2)            to repay, prepay, redeem, purchase or repurchase (a) any Indebtedness of a non-Guarantor Subsidiary or (b) any other Indebtedness that is not Subordinated Debt; provided, however, that, with respect to this clause (b), the Issuer shall also (i) equally and ratably reduce the aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding through open-market purchases of the Notes or (ii) offer to equally and ratably reduce Obligations under the Notes by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for an Asset Sale Offer) to all Holders to purchase a pro rata principal amount of Notes, in each case at a price at least equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes tendered to such offer, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of purchase;

(3)            to acquire Permitted Assets; or

(4)            to make capital expenditures.

(c)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries enters into a binding agreement committing to make an acquisition, expenditure or investment in compliance with clauses (3) or (4) of Section 4.17(b) within 450 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, such commitment will be treated as a permitted application of the Net Proceeds from the date of the execution of such agreement until the earlier of (i) the date on which such acquisition or investment is consummated or such expenditure made or such agreement is terminated and (ii) the 180th day after the date on which such binding commitment was entered into (such 450-day period, as extended pursuant to this paragraph, the “Proceeds Application Period”).

(d)            Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds, the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries may temporarily reduce revolving credit borrowings or otherwise invest the Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Indenture.

(e)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Asset Sale is the result of an involuntary expropriation, nationalization, taking or similar action by or on behalf of any governmental authority, such Asset Sale need not comply with clauses (1) and (2) of Section 4.17(a). In addition, the proceeds of any such Asset Sale shall not be deemed to have been received (and the Proceeds Application Period shall not begin to run) until the proceeds to be paid by or on behalf of the governmental authority have been paid in cash to the Issuer or the Restricted Subsidiary making such Asset Sale and if any litigation, arbitration or other action is brought contesting the validity of or any other matter relating to any such expropriation, nationalization, taking or other similar action, including the amount of the compensation to be paid in respect thereof, until such litigation, arbitration or other action is finally settled or a final judgment or award has been entered and any such judgment or award has been collected in full.

(f)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, to the extent that repatriation to the United States of any or all of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sales by a Foreign Subsidiary (x) is prohibited or delayed by applicable local law or (y) would result in material adverse tax consequences (taking into account any foreign tax credit or other net benefit actually realized in connection with such repatriation that would not otherwise be realized), as determined by the Issuer in good faith, the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds so affected will not be required to be applied in compliance with this covenant, and such amounts may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary; provided that clause (x) of this paragraph shall apply to such amounts for so long, but only for so long, as the applicable local law will not permit repatriation to the United States (the Issuer hereby agreeing to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to take all actions reasonably required by the applicable local law to permit such repatriation), and if such repatriation of any of such affected Net Cash Proceeds is permitted under the applicable local law and is not subject to clause (y) of this paragraph, then such repatriation will be promptly effected and such repatriated Net Cash Proceeds will be applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof) in compliance with this covenant. The time periods set forth in this covenant shall not start until such time as the Net Cash Proceeds may be repatriated (whether or not such repatriation actually occurs).

(g)            Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in Section 4.17(b) will constitute “Excess Proceeds.” Not later than the 10th Business Day following the end of the Proceeds Application Period, if the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $100.0 million, the Issuer will make an offer (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to all Holders and, if required, to all holders of other Pari Passu Indebtedness containing requirements similar to those set forth in this Section 4.17 with respect to offers to purchase or redeem such other Pari Passu Indebtedness with the proceeds of sales of assets to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes and such other Pari Passu Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the Asset Sale Purchase Date (as defined below), and will be payable in cash. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered into such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee will select the Notes and such other Pari Passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis (subject to the procedures of the Depository), on the basis of the aggregate principal amounts tendered in round denominations (which in the case of the Notes will be minimum denominations of €100,000 principal amount or multiples of €1,000 in excess thereof; provided that if, following repurchase of a portion of a Note, the remaining principal amount of such Note outstanding immediately after such repurchase would be less than €100,000, then the portion of such Note so repurchased shall be reduced so that the remaining principal amount of such Note outstanding immediately after such repurchase is €100,000); provided further that any amount of proceeds offered to Holders and holders of other relevant Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.17(b)(2)(b) or pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer made at any time after the Asset Sale shall, upon completion of any such offer, be deemed to have been applied as required and shall not be deemed to be Excess Proceeds without regard to the extent to which such offer is accepted by the Holders thereof and holders of such other relevant Indebtedness. The Issuer may satisfy the foregoing obligations with respect to any Asset Sale by making an Asset Sale Offer at any time prior to the expiration of the Proceeds Application Period. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. To the extent the Excess Proceeds exceed the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Notes (and, if required by the terms thereof, all Pari Passu Indebtedness), the Issuer need only make an Asset Sale Offer up to the outstanding aggregate principal amount of Notes (and any such Pari Passu Indebtedness), and any additional Excess Proceeds shall not be subject to this covenant and shall be permitted to be used for any purpose in the Issuer’s discretion. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero.

(h)            If the Asset Sale Purchase Date is on or after a Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest will be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such Record Date, and no other interest will be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer.

(i)            The Asset Sale Offer will remain open for a period of 20 Business Days following its commencement, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Asset Sale Offer Period”). No later than five Business Days after the termination of the Asset Sale Offer Period (the “Asset Sale Purchase Date”), the Issuer will apply all Excess Proceeds to the purchase of the aggregate principal amount of Notes and, if applicable, Pari Passu Indebtedness required to be offered for purchase pursuant to this Section 4.17 (the “Asset Sale Offer Amount”) or, if less than the Asset Sale Offer Amount has been so validly tendered, all Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness validly tendered in response to the Asset Sale Offer.

(j)            Without limiting the foregoing:

(1)            any Holder may decline any offer of prepayment pursuant to this Section 4.17; and

(2)            the failure of any such Holder to accept or decline any such offer of prepayment shall be deemed to be an election by such Holder to decline such prepayment.

(k)            The Issuer will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act to the extent Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act is applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.17, the Issuer will comply with Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the provisions of this Section 4.17 by virtue of such compliance.

(l)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, any sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole, in one or more related transactions, to another Person, will be governed by Article 5 and will not be subject to the provisions in this Section 4.17.

Section 4.18           Effectiveness of Covenants.

(a)            If on any date following the Issue Date:

(1)            the Notes are rated Investment Grade by both Designated Rating Organizations or by one Designated Rating Organization and S&P; and

(2)            no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,

(the occurrence of the events described in the foregoing clauses (1) and (2) being collectively referred to as an “Investment Grade Rating Event”) then, beginning on that day and at all times thereafter, the covenants set forth in Section 4.08, Section 4.09, Section 4.11, Section 4.15, Section 4.17 and Section 5.01(a)(4) will cease to apply to the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries and will no longer have effect.

(b)            For the avoidance of doubt, such covenants shall not be reinstated even if following an Investment Grade Rating Event one of the Designated Rating Organizations which rates the Notes or S&P withdraws its Investment Grade rating, or downgrades the rating assigned to the Notes below an Investment Grade rating, or ceases to rate the Notes.

(c)            Neither the Trustee nor the paying agent shall have any obligation to independently determine or verify if an Investment Grade Rating Event has occurred or notify the Holders of any event dependent upon the rating of the Notes, or if the rating on the Notes has been changed, suspended or withdrawn by any rating agency.

Section 4.19           Maintenance of Listing. The Issuer will use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and maintain the listing of the Notes on the Official List of the Exchange for so long as any Notes are outstanding; provided that if the Issuer is unable to obtain admission to listing of the Notes on the Exchange or if at any time the Issuer is unable to maintain such listing, it will use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a listing of the Notes on another recognized stock exchange.

(2)            default in the payment when due (at Stated Maturity, upon redemption, required repurchase or otherwise) of the principal of, or premium, if any, on, the Notes;

(3)            failure by the Issuer to comply with Section 4.06 and such failure continues for 120 days after written notice to the Issuer by the Trustee or Holders of at least 30% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding;

(4)            failure by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries for 60 days after written notice to the Issuer by the Trustee or the Holders of at least 30% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding to comply with any of the other agreements in this Indenture;

(5)            default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), whether such Indebtedness or Guarantee exists prior to the Issue Date, or is created after the Issue Date (other than Indebtedness for borrowed money owing to the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary), if that default:

(A)            is caused by a failure to pay principal of such Indebtedness prior to the expiration of the grace period after final maturity (a “Payment Default”); or

(B)            results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness by the holders thereof prior to its Stated Maturity,

and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default that remains outstanding or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates to an amount greater than $100.0 million; provided that if any such Payment Default is cured or waived or any such acceleration is rescinded or the Indebtedness or guarantee that is the basis for such Event of Default has been discharged, as the case may be, such Event of Default under this Indenture and any consequential acceleration of the Notes shall be automatically rescinded, so long as such rescission does not conflict with any judgment or decree;

(6)            failure by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to pay final and unappealable judgments entered by a court or courts of competent jurisdiction aggregating in excess of $100.0 million (net of any amounts which are covered by enforceable insurance policies issued by solvent insurance companies that have not denied coverage), which judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed for a period of 60 days after such judgments become final and non-appealable and, in the event such judgments are covered by insurance and enforcement proceedings have been commenced by any creditor upon such judgments or decrees, which judgments are not promptly stayed;

(7)            except as permitted by this Indenture, any Note Guarantee of a Significant Subsidiary shall be held in any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or shall cease for any reason to be in full force and effect, or any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary or any Person acting on behalf of any such Guarantor shall deny or disaffirm in writing its obligations under its Note Guarantee, other than, in each case, by reason of the termination or discharge of this Indenture or the release of any such Guarantee in accordance with this Indenture, and such Default continues for ten days;

Section 6.02           Acceleration.

(a)            If an Event of Default specified in clause (8) or (9) of Section 6.01(a) has occurred and is continuing, then the principal amount (and premium, if any) of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 30% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare to be immediately due and payable, by notice in writing to the Issuer and (if given by the Holders) to the Trustee, the principal amount (and premium, if any) of all the Notes then outstanding, plus accrued but unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date of acceleration.

(c)            The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may waive all past Defaults (except with respect to non-payment of the principal of, interest and premium (if any) on the Notes) and rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if: (i) all existing Events of Default, other than the non-payment of the principal of, interest and premium (if any) on the Notes that have become due solely by the declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived; and (ii) the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction.

Section 6.03           Other Remedies.

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

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

Section 6.04           Waiver of Past Defaults.

The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may on behalf of all Holders waive any existing Default and its consequences hereunder, except:

(1)            a continuing Default in the payment of the principal, premium, if any, or interest on any Note held by a non-consenting Holder (including in connection with an Asset Sale Offer or a Change of Control Offer); and

provided that, subject to Section 6.02, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may rescind and annul an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Section 6.05           Control by Majority.

The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law, this Indenture, the Notes or any Note Guarantee, or that the Trustee determine in good faith is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not any such direction is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any Holder) or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability.

Section 6.06           Limitation on Suits.

Except to enforce payment of the principal of, and premium (if any) or interest on any Note on or after the Stated Maturity of such Note (after giving effect to the grace period specified in Section 6.01(a)(1)), a Holder will not have any right to institute any proceeding with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any remedy thereunder, unless the Trustee:

(a)            shall have failed to act for a period of 60 days after receiving written notice of a continuing Event of Default from such Holder and a request to act from Holders of at least 30% in aggregate principal amount (and premium, if any) of the Notes then outstanding;

(b)            has been offered security and/or indemnity (and funding thereof, if requested) satisfactory to it; and

(c)            during such 60 day period, has not received from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request.

A Holder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder.

Section 6.07           Rights of Holders to Receive Payment.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on its Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for in such Note (after giving effect to the grace period specified in Section 6.01(a)(1)), or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

Section 6.08           Collection Suit by Trustee.

If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(1) or Section 6.01(a)(2) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer and any other obligor on the Notes for the whole amount of principal, premium, if any, and interest remaining unpaid on the Notes, together with interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and the Agents and their respective agents and counsel.

Section 6.09           Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

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

Section 6.10           Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

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

Section 6.11           Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article 6 or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

Section 6.12           Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

The Trustee may file proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and the Agents (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and the Agents, and their respective agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Notes, including the Guarantors), its creditors or its property and is entitled and empowered to participate as a member in any official committee of creditors appointed in such matter and to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims.

To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, the Agents and their agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee and the Agents under Section 7.06 out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

Section 6.13           Priorities.

If the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article 6, it shall pay out the money in the following order:

(1)            to the Trustee, the Agents and their respective agents and attorneys for amounts due under this Indenture and the Agency Agreement, as applicable, including, without limitation under Section 7.06 hereof, including payment of all reasonable compensation, expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the Agents and the costs and expenses of collection;

Section 6.14           Undertaking for Costs.

For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (1) through (4) below, and to have satisfied all of its other obligations under such Notes and this Indenture, including that of the Guarantors (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:

(1)           the rights of Holders to receive payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Notes when such payments are due solely out of the trust created pursuant to this Indenture;

(2)           the Issuer’s obligations concerning issuing temporary or interim Notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost, or stolen Notes and the maintenance of a registrar, transfer agent and paying agent in respect of the Notes;

(3)           the rights, powers, trusts, duties, indemnities and immunities of the Trustee and the Agents and the Issuer’s obligations in connection therewith; and

(4)           this Section 8.02.

(b)           Following the Issuer’s exercise of their Legal Defeasance option, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default.

(c)           Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Issuer may exercise their option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.03.

Section 8.03           Covenant Defeasance.

Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Issuer and the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, be released from their obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 3.09, 4.03, 4.05, 4.06, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.14, 4.15, 4.16, 4.17 and Section 4.19 and clause (4) of Section 5.01(a) with respect to the outstanding Notes, and the Guarantors shall be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all Note Guarantees, on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied (“Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to this Indenture and the outstanding Notes, the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01(a), but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(3), Section 6.01(a)(4) (only with respect to covenants that are released as a result of such Covenant Defeasance), Section 6.01(a)(5), Section 6.01(a)(6), Section 6.01(a)(7), Section 6.01(a)(8) (solely with respect to Significant Subsidiaries) and Section 6.01(a)(9) (solely with respect to Significant Subsidiaries), in each case, shall not constitute an Event of Default.

Section 8.04           Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance.

(a)           The following shall be the conditions to the exercise of either the Legal Defeasance option under Section 8.02 or the Covenant Defeasance option under Section 8.03 with respect to the Notes:

(1)           the Issuer must deposit or cause to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds or property in trust (or the Paying Agent on its behalf) for the purpose of making payment on such Notes an amount of cash or Government Securities as will, together with the income to accrue thereon and reinvestment thereof, be sufficient to pay, satisfy and discharge the entire principal, interest, if any, premium, if any and any other sums due to the Stated Maturity or an optional redemption date of the Notes;

(2)           no Event of Default with respect to the Issuer or any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary within the meaning of clause (1) of the definition thereof shall have occurred and be continuing under clause (8) or (9) of Section 6.01(a) on the date of such deposit;

(3)           the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuer with the intent of preferring the Holders over its other creditors or with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying, or defrauding any of its other creditors or others;

(4)           in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee in its reasonable judgment confirming that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, (a) the Issuer has received from, or there has been published by, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (b) since the Issue Date, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel will confirm that the Holders and beneficial owners of outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner, and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred;

(5)           in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee in its reasonable judgment to the effect that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, the Holders and beneficial owners of outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner, and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

(6)           the Issuer must satisfy the Trustee that it has paid, caused to be paid or made provisions for the payment of all applicable amounts due and payable to the Trustee and the Agents under this Indenture;

(7)           the Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a Default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries is bound; and

(8)           the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that all conditions precedent herein provided relating to the Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, have been complied with.

Section 8.05           Deposited Money and Government Securities to Be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions.

(a)           Any funds or Government Securities deposited with the Trustee pursuant to the above provisions shall be (a) denominated in the currency or denomination of the Notes in respect of which such deposit is made, (b) irrevocable, and (c) made under the terms of an escrow and/or trust agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee and which provides for the due and punctual payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes being defeased.

(b)           If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any funds or Government Securities in accordance with the above provisions by reason of any legal proceeding or any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture (including the Note Guarantees, as applicable) and the affected Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no funds or Government Securities had been deposited pursuant to the above provisions until such time as the Trustee is permitted to apply all such funds or Government Securities in accordance with the above provisions; provided that if the Issuer or any Guarantor has made any payment in respect of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on Notes or, as applicable, other amounts because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer and such Guarantor, as applicable, shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the funds or Government Securities held by the Trustee

(c)           The Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, will pay and indemnify the Trustee and the Agents against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders.

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

Section 8.06           Repayment to the Issuer.

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

Section 8.07           Reinstatement.

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any Euros or Government Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or Section 8.03, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or Section 8.03 until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or Section 8.03, as the case may be; provided that, if the Issuer make any payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on any Note following the reinstatement of their obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

Section 9.01           Without Consent of Holders.

(a)           Notwithstanding Section 9.02, without the consent of any Holder, the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Agents and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees:

(1)           to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency;

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

(6)           to conform the text of this Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees to any provision of the “Description of Notes” section of the Offering Memorandum to the extent that such provision in such “Description of Notes” was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of this Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees or, with respect to any Additional Notes that are issued in compliance with this Indenture and any supplemental indenture pursuant to which such Additional Notes are issued, to the “Description of Notes” relating to the issuance of such Additional Notes solely to the extent that such “Description of Notes” provides for terms of such Additional Notes that differ from the terms of the Notes issued on the Issue Date;

(7)           to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in accordance with the limitations set forth in this Indenture;

(8)           to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under this Indenture of any such Holder;

(9)           to evidence or provide for the acceptance of appointment under this Indenture of any successor Trustee or Agent; or

(10)         to comply with any requirement of the SEC in connection with any qualification of this Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act.

(b)           Upon the written request of the Issuer, and upon receipt by the Trustee and the Agents of the documents described in Section 12.03, the Trustee and the Agents shall join with the Issuer and the Guarantors in the execution of any amended or supplemental indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of this Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee and the Agents shall not be obligated to enter into such amended or supplemental indenture that affects its own rights, duties, indemnities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee or the Agents may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental indenture.

Section 9.02           With Consent of Holders.

(a)           Except as provided in Section 9.01 and this Section 9.02, this Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes) and, subject to Section 6.04 and Section 6.07, any past default or compliance with any provisions may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes). Section 2.08 and Section 2.09 shall determine which Notes are considered to be “outstanding” for the purpose of this Section 9.02.

(b)           Upon the written request of the Issuer, and upon the filing with the Trustee and the Agents of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee and the Agents of the consent of the Holders as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee and the Agents of the documents described in Section 12.03, the Trustee and the Agents shall join with the Issuer and the Guarantors in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or supplemental indenture directly affects the Trustee’s or an Agent’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee or such Agent may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental indenture.

(c)           The consent of the Holders is not necessary under this Indenture to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02. It is sufficient if such consent approves the substance of the proposed amendment or supplement. A consent to any amendment, supplement or waiver under this Indenture by any Holder given in connection with a tender of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Notes will not be rendered invalid by such tender. After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Indenture becomes effective, the Issuer shall give to the Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment, supplement or waiver. However, the failure to give such notice to all the Holders, or any defect in the notice will not impair or affect the validity of any such amendment, supplement or waiver.

(d)           Without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder):

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

(2)           reduce the principal of any Note or extend the final maturity thereof;

(3)           reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest on any Note;

(4)           reduce the premium payable upon the redemption of any Note or change the time at which any Note may be redeemed as set forth in Section 3.07 (other than with respect to the timing of notices) (it being understood that the provisions set forth in Section 4.16 and Section 4.17 and the related definitions are not subject to this clause);

(5)           make any Note payable in a currency other than that stated in the Notes;

(6)           waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on the Notes (except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes with respect to a non-payment default and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration);

(7)           impair the right of any Holder to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Notes;

(8)           make the Notes or any Note Guarantee subordinated in right of payment to any other obligations;

(9)           release the Issuer or any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary within the meaning of clause (1) of the definition thereof from any of its obligations under the Notes, its Note Guarantee or this Indenture other than, in the case of a Guarantor, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; or

(10)         modify the amendment or waiver provisions that require each Holder’s consent under this Article 9.

Section 9.03           Revocation and Effect of Consents.

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

(b)           The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date pursuant to Section 1.04 for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any amendment, supplement or waiver.

Section 9.04           Notation on or Exchange of Notes.

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

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

Section 9.05           Trustee and Agents to Sign Amendments, etc.

The Trustee and the Agents shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment, supplement or waiver does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities, indemnities or immunities of the Trustee or the Agents. In executing any amendment, supplement or waiver, the Trustee and the Agents shall be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 12.03, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amendment, supplement or waiver is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such amendment, supplement or waiver is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer and any Guarantor 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 shall be required for the Trustee or the Agents to execute any amendment or supplement adding a new Guarantor under this Indenture or releasing a Guarantor in accordance with this Indenture.

Article 10
GUARANTEES

Section 10.01         Guarantee.

(a)           Subject to this Article 10, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, on a senior unsecured basis, to each Holder and to the Trustee, the Agents and their successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Issuer hereunder or thereunder, that: (1) the principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Issuer to the Holders, the Trustee or the Agents hereunder or under the Notes shall be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (2) 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 collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations.” Failing payment by the Issuer 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 agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

(b)           The Guarantors hereby 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 with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that this Note Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture, or pursuant to Section 10.06.

(c)           Each of the Guarantors also agrees, jointly and severally, to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustee, the Agents or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section 10.01.

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

(e)           Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders, the Agents and the Trustee, on the other hand, (1) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 for the purposes of this Note Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (2) 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 this Note Guarantee. 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 Note Guarantees.

(f)           Each Note Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Issuer for liquidation or reorganization, should the Issuer become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of the Issuer’s 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 the Note 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.

(g)           In case any provision of any Note 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.

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

Section 10.02        Limitation on Guarantor Liability.

(a)           Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Note Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent conveyance or a fraudulent transfer for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Note Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders, the Agents and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of each Guarantor shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 10, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Note Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under applicable law. In addition, each Note Guarantee will only cover those liabilities and will be limited to the maximum amount that can be guaranteed by the relevant Guarantor without rendering the relevant Note Guarantee, as it relates to that Guarantor, voidable or otherwise ineffective, unlawful or limited under applicable law or causing the directors of such Guarantor to be held in breach of applicable corporate or commercial law. Each Guarantor that makes a payment under its Note Guarantee will be entitled upon payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations under this Indenture (subject to the limitation in the preceding sentence) 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.

(b)

Limitation on French Guarantors.

(1)           The liability of a Guarantor incorporated in France (a “French Guarantor”) in respect of the Note Guarantee or any other indemnity provided under this Indenture shall be limited to guarantee the payment obligations under this Indenture:

(A)          of its direct or indirect Subsidiaries incorporated in France that are or become Guarantors from time to time under this Indenture; and

(B)           of the Issuer or its direct or indirect Subsidiaries (to the extent they are not French Guarantors) as Guarantors and any other Guarantor that is not a direct or indirect Subsidiary of that French Guarantor (a “Guaranteed Obligor”); provided that, in such case, the guarantee shall be limited:

(i) to the payment obligations of the Guaranteed Obligor; and

(ii) up to an amount of the proceeds of the Notes that have been directly or indirectly made available to such French Guarantor (or any of its Subsidiaries) via intercompany loans that are outstanding and owed by such French Guarantor (or any of its Subsidiaries) under such intercompany loans on the date a payment is requested to be made by such French Guarantor under this Indenture (the “Maximum Guaranteed Amount”); it being specified that any payment made by the French Guarantor under the Note Guarantee in respect of the obligations of any Guaranteed Obligor shall reduce pro tanto the outstanding amounts due by such French Guarantor to that Guaranteed Obligor and by way of consequence shall reduce the Maximum Guaranteed Amount.

(2)           The obligations and liabilities of the French Guarantor with respect to the Note Guarantee or any other indemnity provided under this Indenture:

(a)           shall not include any obligation or liability which if incurred (i) would constitute the provision of financial assistance rules as set out in Article L.225-216 of the French Commercial Code and/or (ii) would constitute a misuse of corporate assets within the meaning of Articles L.241-3, L.242-6 and L.244-1 of the French Code de Commerce or any other law or regulations having the same effect, as interpreted by French courts and/or (iii) would exceed its financial capacity; and

Article 11
SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

Section 11.01         Satisfaction and Discharge.

This Indenture will cease to be of further effect as to all Notes issued thereunder (except as to any surviving rights of registration or transfer or exchange of Notes expressly provided for in this Indenture) when:

(a)           either:

(1)           all Notes that have been authenticated (except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has been deposited with the Trustee in trust (or the Paying Agent on its behalf)) have been delivered to the Registrar for cancellation; or

(2)           all Notes that have not been delivered to the Registrar for cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the delivery of a notice of redemption or otherwise or will become due and payable within one year and the Issuer has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust (or the Paying Agent on its behalf) solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash in Euros, Government Securities, or a combination of cash in Euros and Government Securities, in amounts as will be sufficient to pay and discharge the principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest to the date of final maturity or redemption;

(b)           the Issuer or any Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by the Issuer under this Indenture; and

(c)           the Issuer has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under this Indenture to apply (or cause to be applied) the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at final maturity or the redemption date, as the case may be.

In addition, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee and the Agents an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel (which Opinion of Counsel may be subject to customary assumptions and exclusions) each stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied.

102

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (2) of clause (a) above, the provisions of Section 11.02 and Section 8.06 shall survive. In addition, nothing in this Section 11.01 will be deemed to discharge those provisions of Section 7.06 hereof that, by their terms, survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

Section 11.02         Application of Trust Money.

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

(b)           If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with Section 11.01 by reason of any legal proceeding or any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ obligations under the Indenture (including the Note Guarantees, as applicable) and the affected Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no funds or Government Securities had been deposited pursuant to the above provisions until such time as the Trustee is permitted to apply all such funds or Government Securities in accordance with the above provisions; provided that if the Issuer or any Guarantor has made any payment in respect of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Notes or, as applicable, other amounts because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer and such Guarantor, as applicable, shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the funds or Government Securities held by the Trustee.

The Issuer, any Guarantor or the Trustee, by like notice, may designate additional or different addresses for subsequent notices or communications.

(b)           All notices and communications (other than those sent to Holders) shall be deemed to have been duly given: at the time delivered by hand, if personally delivered; on the first date of which publication is made, if by publication; five calendar days after being deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, if mailed by first-class mail; the next Business Day after timely delivery to the courier, if mailed by overnight air courier guaranteeing next day delivery; when receipt acknowledged, if sent by facsimile or electronic transmission; provided that any notice or communication delivered to the Trustee or an Agent shall be deemed effective upon actual receipt thereof.

Failure to mail a notice or communication to a Holder or any defect in it shall not affect its sufficiency with respect to other Holders.

104

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

(e)           Notwithstanding any other provision herein, where this Indenture provides for notice of any event to any Holder of an interest in a Global Note (whether by mail or otherwise), such notice shall be sufficiently given if given to the Depository for such Note (or its designee), according to the applicable procedures of such Depository, if any, prescribed for the giving of such notice. Notices otherwise given in accordance with the applicable procedures of Euroclear and Clearstream shall be deemed given on the date sent to Euroclear and Clearstream.

(f)            The Trustee agrees to accept and act upon notice, instructions or directions pursuant to this Indenture sent by unsecured facsimile or electronic transmission; provided, however, that (1) the party providing such written notice, instructions or directions, subsequent to such transmission of written instructions, shall provide the originally executed instructions or directions to the Trustee in a timely manner, and (2) such originally executed notice, instructions or directions shall be signed by an authorized representative of the party providing such notice, instructions or directions. The Trustee shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Trustee’s reasonable reliance upon and compliance with such notice, instructions or directions notwithstanding such notice, instructions or directions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent notice, instructions or directions.

(g)           All notices, approvals, consents, requests and any communications to the Trustee hereunder must be in writing in English and must be in the form of a document that is signed manually or by way of an electronic signature (including electronic images of handwritten signatures and digital signatures provided by DocuSign, Orbit, Adobe Sign or any other electronic signature provider acceptable to the Trustee). Electronic signatures believed by the Trustee to comply with the ESIGN ACT of 2000 or other applicable law shall be deemed original signatures for all purposes. If the Issuer chooses to use electronic signatures to sign documents delivered to the Trustee, the Issuer agrees to assume all risks arising out of its use of electronic signatures, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee acting on an unauthorized document and the risk of interception or misuse by third parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee may in any instance and in its sole discretion require that an original document bearing a manual signature be delivered to the Trustee in lieu of, or in addition to, any document signed via electronic signature.

(h)           If a notice or communication is sent in the manner provided above within the time prescribed, it is duly given, whether or not the addressee receives it.

(i)            If the Issuer delivers a notice or communication to Holders, they shall deliver a copy to the Trustee and each Agent at the same time.

Each Guarantor further agrees that nothing herein shall affect any Holder’s right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or bring a suit action or proceeding (including a proceeding for enforcement of a judgment) in any other court or jurisdiction in accordance with applicable law.

108

Section 12.19         Judgment Currency.

(a)           If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due under this Indenture to the Holder from Euros to another currency, the Issuer and each Guarantor have agreed, and each Holder by holding such Note will be deemed to have agreed, to the fullest extent that the Issuer, each Guarantor and they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures such Holder could purchase Euros with such other currency in the London foreign exchange markets on the Business Day preceding the day on which final judgment is given.

(b)           The Issuer’s and Guarantors’ obligations to any Holder will, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than Euros, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Holder, the Trustee or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, of any amount in such Judgment Currency, such Holder may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase Euros with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Euros so purchased is less than the amount originally to be paid to such Holder, the Trustee or the Paying Agent in the Judgment Currency (as determined in the manner set forth in the preceding paragraph), as the case may be, each of the Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Holder, the Trustee or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, against any such loss. If the amount of the Euros so purchased is more than the amount originally to be paid to such Holder, the Trustee or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, such Holder, the Trustee or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, will pay the Issuer and the Guarantors such excess; provided that such Holder, the Trustee or Paying Agent, as the case may be, shall not have any obligation to pay any such excess as long as the Issuer or the Guarantors shall have failed to pay any Holder, the Trustee or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, any amounts then due and payable under such Note or this Indenture, in which case such excess may be applied by such Holder or the Trustee to such Obligations.

Section 12.20         Contractual Acknowledgement of Bail-in Powers.

(a)           The Paying Agent, Registrar and Transfer Agent are authorized and regulated by the Central Bank of Ireland.

(b)           In connection with the worldwide effort against the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, the Paying Agent, Registrar and Transfer Agent may be required under various national laws and regulations to which they are subject to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each person who opens an account with it. For a non-individual person such as a business entity, a charity, a trust or other legal entity the Paying Agent, Registrar and Transfer Agent shall be entitled to ask for documentation to verify such entity’s formation and legal existence as well as financial statements, licenses, identification and authorization documents from individuals claiming authority to represent the entity or other relevant documentation.

109

(c)           The parties to this Indenture acknowledge and agree that the obligations of Paying Agent, Registrar and Transfer Agent under this Indenture are limited by and subject to compliance by them with E.U. and U.S. Federal anti-money laundering statutes and regulations. If the Paying Agent, Registrar and Transfer Agent or any of their directors know or suspect that a payment is the proceeds of criminal conduct, such person is required to report such information pursuant to the applicable authorities and such report shall not be treated as a breach by such person of any confidentiality covenant or other restriction imposed on such person under this Indenture, by law or otherwise on the disclosure of information. The Paying Agent, Registrar and Transfer Agent shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, from and against all losses suffered by them that may arise as a result of the agents being prevented from fulfilling their obligations hereunder due to the extent doing so would not be consistent with applicable statutory anti-money laundering requirements.

(d)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of Paying Agent, Registrar and Transfer Agent arising under this Indenture or any such other document, to the extent such liability is unsecured or not otherwise exempted, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of a Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(1)           the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by a Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto; and

(2)           the effects of any Bail-in Action on any such liability, including, if applicable: (1) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability; (2) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such party, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Indenture or any other agreement; or (3) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of any Resolution Authority.

Members of, or participants in, the Depository (“Agent Members”) shall have no rights under the Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the Depository or by the Trustee or the Custodian or under such Global Note, and the Depository may be treated by the Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee as the absolute owner of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Issuer, the Trustee or any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depository or impair, as between the Depository and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices of such Depository governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of a beneficial interest in any Global Note.

(1) shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer and the Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his or her attorney duly authorized in writing; and

(b) Restrictions on Transfer of a Definitive Note for a Beneficial Interest in a Global Note. A Definitive Note may not be exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Global Note except upon satisfaction of the requirements set forth below. Upon receipt by the Trustee and the Transfer Agent of a Definitive Note, duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer and the Registrar, together with:

(i) a certification from the transferor in the form provided on the reverse side of the Form of Note in Exhibit A for exchange or registration of transfers and, as applicable, delivery of such legal opinions, certifications and other information as may be requested pursuant thereto; and

(ii) written instructions directing the Registrar or the Custodian to make an adjustment on its books and records with respect to such Global Note to reflect an increase in the aggregate principal amount of the Notes represented by the Global Note, such instructions to contain information regarding the Depository account to be credited with such increase,

the Registrar shall cancel such Definitive Note and cause, or direct the Custodian to cause, in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depository and the Custodian, the aggregate principal amount of Notes represented by the Global Note to be increased by the aggregate principal amount of the Definitive Note to be exchanged and shall credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the Global Note equal to the principal amount of the Definitive Note so canceled. If the applicable Global Note is not then outstanding, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, a new applicable Global Note in the appropriate principal amount.

(i) The transfer and exchange of Global Notes or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the Depository, in accordance with the Indenture (including applicable restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 2.2(d) of this Appendix A, if any) and the procedures of the Depository therefor. A transferor of a beneficial interest in a Global Note shall deliver to the Registrar a written order given in accordance with the Depository’s procedures containing information regarding the participant account of the Depository to be credited with a beneficial interest in such Global Note, or another Global Note and such account shall be credited in accordance with such order with a beneficial interest in the applicable Global Note and the account of the Person making the transfer shall be debited by an amount equal to the beneficial interest in the Global Note being transferred.

(ii) If the proposed transfer is a transfer of a beneficial interest in one Global Note to a beneficial interest in another Global Note, the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of the Global Note to which such interest is being transferred in an amount equal to the principal amount of the interest to be so transferred, and the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and a corresponding decrease in the principal amount of the Global Note from which such interest is being transferred.

(iii) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Appendix A (other than the provisions set forth in Section 2.3 of this Appendix A), a Global Note may not be transferred except as a whole and not in part if the transfer is by the Depository to a nominee of the Depository or by a nominee of the Depository to the Depository or another nominee of the Depository or by the Depository or any such nominee to a successor Depository or a nominee of such successor Depository.

(d) Restrictions on Transfer of Global Notes; Voluntary Exchange of Interests in Transfer Restricted Global Notes for Interests in Unrestricted Global Notes.

(i) Transfers by an owner of a beneficial interest in a Rule 144A Global Note to a transferee who takes delivery of such interest through another Transfer Restricted Global Note shall be made in accordance with the Applicable Procedures and the Restricted Notes Legend and only upon receipt by the Trustee of a certification from the transferor in the form provided on the reverse side of the Form of Note in Exhibit A for exchange or registration of transfers and, as applicable, delivery of such legal opinions, certifications and other information as may be requested pursuant thereto.

(ii) During the Distribution Compliance Period, beneficial ownership interests in the Regulation S Global Note may only be sold, pledged or transferred through Euroclear or Clearstream in accordance with the Applicable Procedures, the Restricted Notes Legend on such Regulation S Global Note and any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States.

(iii) Upon the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, beneficial interests in the Regulation S Global Note may be exchanged for beneficial interests in an Unrestricted Global Note upon certification in the form provided on the reverse side of the Form of Note in Exhibit A for an exchange from a Regulation S Global Note to an Unrestricted Global Note.

(v) If no Unrestricted Global Note is outstanding at the time of a transfer contemplated by the preceding clauses (iii) and (iv), the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, a new Unrestricted Global Note in the appropriate principal amount.

At such time as all beneficial interests in a Global Note have either been exchanged for Definitive Notes, transferred in exchange for an interest in another Global Note or redeemed, repurchased or canceled, such Global Note shall be returned by the Depository to the Trustee for cancellation or retained and canceled by the Trustee. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for Definitive Notes, transferred in exchange for an interest in another Global Note or redeemed, repurchased or canceled, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note shall be reduced and an adjustment shall be made on the books and records of the Registrar (if it is then the Custodian for such Global Note) with respect to such Global Note, by the Registrar or the Custodian, to reflect such reduction.

Upon the Issuer’s satisfaction that the Restricted Notes Legend shall no longer be required in order to maintain compliance with the Securities Act, beneficial interests in a Global Note that is a Transfer Restricted Note may be automatically exchanged into beneficial interests in an Unrestricted Global Note without any action required by or on behalf of the Holder (the “Automatic Exchange”) at any time on or after the date that is the 366th calendar day after (i) with respect to any Note issued on the Issue Date, the later of (A) the Issue Date and (B) the last date on which the Issuer or any Affiliate of the Issuer were the owner of such Note (or of any other Global Note with the same ISIN or Common Code numbers) or (ii) with respect to any Additional Note, if any, the later of (A) the issue date of such Additional Note and (B) the last date on which the Issuer or any Affiliate of the Issuer were the owner of such Note (or of any other Global Note with the same ISIN or Common Code numbers), or, in each case, if such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (the “Automatic Exchange Date”). Upon the Issuer’s satisfaction that the Restricted Notes Legend shall no longer be required in order to maintain compliance with the Securities Act, the Issuer shall (I) provide written notice to the Trustee and the Transfer Agent at least seven calendar days prior to the Automatic Exchange, instructing the Transfer Agent to direct the Depository to exchange all of the outstanding beneficial interests in a particular Global Note that is a Transfer Restricted Note to the Unrestricted Global Note, which the Issuer shall have previously otherwise made eligible for exchange with Euroclear or Clearstream, (II) provide prior written notice (the “Automatic Exchange Notice”) to each Holder at such Holder’s address appearing in the Note Register at least seven calendar days prior to the Automatic Exchange (the “Automatic Exchange Notice Date”), which notice must include (1) the Automatic Exchange Date, (2) the section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Automatic Exchange shall occur, (3) the ISIN or Common Code numbers of the Global Note that is a Transfer Restricted Note from which such Holder’s beneficial interests will be transferred and (4) the ISIN or Common Code numbers of the Unrestricted Global Note into which such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s beneficial interests will be transferred, and (III) on or prior to the date of the Automatic Exchange, deliver to the Trustee for authentication one or more Unrestricted Global Notes, duly executed by the Issuer, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Global Notes that are Transfer Restricted Notes to be exchanged. At the Issuer’s written request on no less than five calendar days’ notice, the Transfer Agent shall deliver, in the Issuer’s name and at its expense, the Automatic Exchange Notice (which shall be prepared by the Issuer) to each Holder at such Holder’s address appearing in the Note Register. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.2(i), during the period between the Automatic Exchange Notice Date and the Automatic Exchange Date, no transfers or exchanges other than pursuant to this Section 2.2(i) shall be permitted without the prior written consent of the Issuer. As a condition to any Automatic Exchange, the Issuer shall provide, and the Trustee and the Transfer Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, an Officer’s Certificate and/or Opinion of Counsel in form reasonably acceptable to the Trustee and the Transfer Agent to the effect that no registration under the Securities Act is required in respect of the Automatic Exchange or re-sales of beneficial interests in such Unrestricted Global Note that are beneficially owned by a holder of beneficial interests therein upon the Automatic Exchange. The Issuer may request from Holders such information as it reasonably determines is required in order to be able to deliver such Officer’s Certificate. Upon such exchange of beneficial interests pursuant to this Section 2.2(i), the aggregate principal amount of the Global Notes shall be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Registrar and the Custodian,, to reflect the relevant increase or decrease in the principal amount of such Global Note resulting from the applicable exchange. The Global Note that is a Transfer Restricted Note from which beneficial interests are transferred pursuant to an Automatic Exchange shall be canceled following the Automatic Exchange.

Section 2.3             Definitive Notes.

(a) A Global Note deposited with the Depository or with the Custodian pursuant to Section 2.1 may be transferred to the beneficial owners thereof in the form of Definitive Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Global Note, in exchange for such Global Note, only if such transfer complies with Section 2.2 of this Appendix A and (i) the Depository notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as a Depository for such Global Note or if at any time the Depository ceases to be a “clearing agency” registered under the Exchange Act and, in each case, a successor depositary is not appointed by the Issuer within 90 days of such notice or after the Issuer becomes aware of such cessation, or (ii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Registrar has received a request from the Depository or (iii) the Issuer, in its sole discretion and subject to the procedures of the Depository, notifies the Trustee in writing that it elects to cause the issuance of Definitive Notes under this Indenture. In addition, any Affiliate of the Issuer or any Guarantor that is a beneficial owner of all or part of a Global Note may have such Affiliate’s beneficial interest transferred to such Affiliate in the form of a Definitive Note by providing a written request to the Issuer and the Trustee and such opinions of counsel, certificates or other information as may be required by this Indenture or the Issuer or Trustee.

(b) Any Global Note that is transferable to the beneficial owners thereof pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be surrendered by the Depository to the Trustee and the Transfer Agent, to be so transferred, in whole or from time to time in part, without charge, and upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, upon such transfer of each portion of such Global Note, an equal aggregate principal amount of Definitive Notes of authorized denominations. Any portion of a Global Note transferred pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be executed, authenticated and delivered only in denominations of €100,000 and integral multiples of €1,000 in excess thereof and registered in such names as the Depository shall direct. Any Definitive Note delivered in exchange for an interest in a Global Note that is a Transfer Restricted Note shall, except as otherwise provided by Section 2.2(e) of this Appendix A, bear the Restricted Notes Legend.

(c) The registered Holder of a Global Note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Agent Members and Persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Notes.

(d) In the event of the occurrence of any of the events specified in Section 2.3(a) of this Appendix A, the Issuer shall promptly make available to the Trustee a reasonable supply of Definitive Notes in fully registered form without interest coupons.
