“Consolidated Net Secured Leverage Ratio” means, as of any date of determination, the ratio of (1) the Indebtedness of the Company that is outstanding and that is secured by a Lien on the assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as of such date minus Cash Equivalents included on the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date of determination and still held by the Company as of such date to (2) the Consolidated EBITDA of the Company for the then most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date of determination, in each case with such pro forma adjustments as are consistent with the pro forma adjustment provisions set forth in this definition.

In addition, for purposes of calculating the Consolidated Net Secured Leverage Ratio:

(2) the Consolidated EBITDA attributable to discontinued operations, as determined in accordance with GAAP, and operations or businesses (and ownership interests therein) disposed of prior to the Calculation Date, will be excluded;

(3) the Fixed Charges attributable to discontinued operations, as determined in accordance with GAAP, and operations or businesses (and ownership interests therein) disposed of prior to the Calculation Date, will be excluded, but only to the extent that the obligations giving rise to such Fixed Charges will not be obligations of the specified Person or any of its Subsidiaries following the Calculation Date;

(4) if any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest, the interest expense on such Indebtedness will be calculated as if the rate in effect on the Calculation Date had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Hedging Obligation applicable to such Indebtedness if such Hedging Obligation has a remaining term as of the Calculation Date in excess of 12 months).

For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to an Investment, acquisition, disposition and merger or consolidation, the pro forma calculations shall include factually supportable and identifiable pro forma cost savings related to operational efficiencies, expense reductions, strategic initiatives or improvements or other synergies, in each case, projected by the Company in good faith to be realized based upon actions taken, committed to be taken or reasonably expected to be taken within 18 months of the Calculation Date (without duplication of the amount of actual benefit realized during such period from such actions), which cost savings, improvements and synergies can be reasonably computed, as certified in writing by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Company. Interest on a Capital Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Company to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capital Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP. For purposes of making the computation referred to above, interest on any Indebtedness under revolving credit facilities computed on a pro forma basis shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the applicable period, or if lower, the maximum commitments under such revolving credit facilities as of the applicable Calculation Date. Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a eurocurrency interbank offered rate, or other rate, shall be deemed to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or, if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as the Company may designate.

The Company may, at its election and without notice to or the consent of the Holders of the Notes, hereafter issue additional Notes (“Additional Notes”) under the Indenture with the same terms and with the same CUSIP numbers as the Notes issued on the date of this Supplemental Indenture (the “Initial Notes”) in an unlimited aggregate principal amount.

Once notice of redemption is provided in accordance with the Indenture, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the redemption date at the redemption price, subject only to the satisfaction or waiver of any conditions precedent.

(b) If such notice of redemption is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall state that, in the Company’s discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (which, for the avoidance of doubt, may be later than 60 days from the date such notice was delivered or mailed), or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the redemption date, or by the redemption date so delayed.

Section 3.03 Optional Redemption.

(a) At any time prior to April 1, 2021, the Company may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under this Supplemental Indenture (including any Additional Notes), upon not less than 15 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at a redemption price equal to 105.5% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of redemption (subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date), with the net cash proceeds of an Equity Offering; provided that:

(1) at least 60% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes originally issued under this Supplemental Indenture (excluding Notes held by the Company and its Subsidiaries) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption; and

(2) the redemption occurs within 180 days of the date of the closing of such Equity Offering.

(b) At any time prior to April 1, 2021, the Company may on any one or more occasions redeem all or a part of the Notes, upon not less than 15 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 not including, the date of redemption, subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date.

(c) Except pursuant to Sections 3.03(a) and (b), the Notes will not be redeemable at the Company’s option prior to April 1, 2021.

(d) On or after April 1, 2021, the Company may on any one or more occasions redeem all or a part of the Notes, upon not less than 15 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 not including, the applicable date of redemption, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on April 1 of the years indicated below, subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date:

Year	Percentage

2021	104.125%
2022	102.750%
2023	101.375%
2024 and thereafter	100.000%

Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable redemption date.

(e) If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee will select Notes for redemption on a pro rata basis or, in the case of Global Notes, based on a method that most nearly approximates a pro rata selection as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate and in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depository unless otherwise required by law or applicable stock exchange or depositary requirements.

(f) No Notes of $2,000 or less shall be redeemed in part.

(g) Any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.03 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01 and 3.02 hereof and Sections 3.1, 3.3, 3.5 and 3.6 of the Original Indenture.

(h) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with any tender offer for the Notes, including a Change of Control Offer, if Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding notes validly tender and do not withdraw such notes in such tender offer and the Company or any third party making such tender offer in lieu of the Company, purchases all of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such holders, the Company or such third party will have the right upon not less than 15 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 15 days following such purchase date, to redeem all notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price equal to the price offered to each other holder in such tender offer plus, to the extent not included in the tender offer payment, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon, to, but not including, the date of such redemption.

(i) If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to that Note will state the portion of the principal amount of that Note that is to be redeemed. No notes of $2,000 or less in principal amount will be redeemed in part. A new Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original Note will be issued in the name of the Holder of Notes upon cancellation of the original Note. Notes called for redemption become due on the date fixed for redemption, unless such redemption is conditioned on the happening of a future event. On the redemption date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions of Notes redeemed unless the Company defaults in paying the applicable redemption price.

Section 3.04 Special Mandatory Redemption.

In the event that (a) the Acquisition is not consummated on or prior to August 12, 2018 or (b) at any time prior to August 12, 2018, the Acquisition Agreement is terminated without the Acquisition being consummated (any such event being a “Special Mandatory Redemption Event”), the Company will redeem all of the notes (the “Special Mandatory Redemption”), at a price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date (the “Special Mandatory Redemption Price”).

Notice of the occurrence of a Special Mandatory Redemption Event and that a Special Mandatory Redemption is to occur (the “Special Mandatory Redemption Notice”), shall be delivered to the Trustee and mailed by first class mail or sent electronically to each holder of notes’ registered address or electronically delivered according to the procedures of DTC as to global notes, within ten business days after the Special Mandatory Redemption Event. At the Company’s written request and provision of such notice information fifteen days (or as otherwise acceptable to the Trustee) prior to the delivery of notice to Holders, the Trustee shall give the Special Mandatory Redemption Notice in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense. On such date specified in the Special Mandatory Redemption Notice as shall be no more than ten business days (or such other minimum period as may be required by DTC) after mailing or sending the Special Mandatory Redemption Notice, the special mandatory redemption shall occur (the date of such redemption, the “Special Mandatory Redemption Date”).

If funds sufficient to pay the Special Mandatory Redemption Price of all of the notes on the Special Mandatory Redemption Date are deposited with a paying agent or the trustee on or before such Special Mandatory Redemption Date, then on and after such Special Mandatory Redemption Date, the notes shall cease to bear interest and, other than the right to receive the Special Mandatory Redemption Price, all rights under such notes shall terminate.

Upon the consummation of the Acquisition, the foregoing provisions regarding the Special Mandatory Redemption will cease to apply.

Section 3.05 Mandatory Redemption.

Except as described in Section 3.04, the Company is not required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.

ARTICLE 4.
COvenants

Section 4.01 Reports.

(a) Whether or not required by the rules and regulations of the SEC, so long as any Notes are outstanding, the Company shall provide to the Trustee copies of the annual reports and of the information, documents and other reports (or copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as the SEC may from time to time by rules and regulations prescribe) that the Company would be required to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, subject to the next succeeding paragraph. The company shall be deemed to have complied with the previous sentence to the extent that such information, documents and reports are filed with the SEC via XXXXX, or any successor electronic delivery procedure.

(b) If, at any time, the Company is no longer subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for any reason, with respect to the information, documents and reports provided for in the immediately preceding paragraph: (i) with respect to current reports on Form 8-K under the SEC’s rules and regulations, the Company shall be required to provide only current reports containing substantially all of the information that would be required to be filed in a current report on Form 8-K under the Exchange Act on the Issue Date pursuant to Sections 1, 2 and 4, Items 5.01, 5.02(a)-(c) (other than compensation information) and Item 9.01 (only to the extent relating to any of the foregoing) of Form 8-K, provided, however, that no such current reports (or Items thereof or all or a portion of the financial statements that would have otherwise been required thereby) will be required to be provided (or included) if the Company determines in its good faith judgment that such event (or information) is not material to Holders of the notes or to the business, assets, operations or financial position of the Company

and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole; (ii) such information, documents and reports shall, in each case, be subject to exceptions and exclusions consistent with the presentation of financial and other information in this offering memorandum, including with respect to the omission of financial statements or financial information required by Rules 3- 09 or 3-10 under Regulation S-X promulgated by the SEC (or any successor provision), Compensation Discussion and Analysis otherwise required by Regulation S-K Item 402(b), and information otherwise required by Section 404 of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002; (iii) trade secrets and other confidential information that is competitively sensitive in the good faith and reasonable determination of the Company may be excluded from any information, documents and reports; (iv) in no event will such information, documents and reports will contain compensation or beneficial ownership information; and (v) in no event will such information, documents and 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.

(c) If any direct or indirect parent company of the Company becomes a Guarantor, the Company may satisfy its obligations in this Section 4.01 with respect to financial information relating to the Company by furnishing financial information relating to such other parent Guarantor; provided that if and so long as such parent Guarantor shall have Independent Assets or Operations (as defined below), the same is accompanied by consolidating information that explains in reasonable detail the differences between the information relating to such parent Guarantor, on the one hand, and the information relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries on a standalone basis, on the other hand. “Independent Assets or Operations” means, with respect to any such parent Guarantor, that such parent Guarantor’s total assets or revenues, determined in accordance with GAAP and as shown on the most recent financial statements of such parent Guarantor, is more than 3.0% of such parent Guarantor’s corresponding consolidated amount.

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that the Company fails to comply with its obligation to file or provide such information, documents and reports as required hereunder, the Company will be deemed to have cured such Default with respect to the notes for purposes of Section 6.01(4) upon the filing or provision of all such information, documents and reports required hereunder prior to the expiration of 90 days after written notice to the Company of such failure from the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% of the principal amount of the notes.

(e) The Trustee shall have no responsibility whatsoever to monitor whether any filing or posting contemplated by this Section 4.01 has occurred. Delivery of any reports, information or documents pursuant to this Section 4.01 is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officer’s Certificates).

Section 4.02 Use of Proceeds Prior to the Consummation of the Acquisition.

Prior to the earlier of (A) the date of the consummation of the Acquisition and (B) the date on which the Notes are redeemed by the Company pursuant to Section 3.04, the Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, use the net proceeds from the issuance of the Notes for any purpose other than making investments in Cash Equivalents or consummating the Acquisition.

Upon the consummation of the Acquisition, this covenant will automatically cease to be of any force or effect.

Section 4.03 Liens.

(a) Except as permitted under Section 4.05, the Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, create, incur, assume or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any Lien of any kind (other than Permitted Liens) securing Indebtedness upon any of their property or assets, now owned or hereafter acquired, unless (1) in the case of any Lien securing pari passu Indebtedness, the Notes are secured by a Lien that is senior in priority to or pari passu with such Lien and (2) in the case of any Lien securing subordinated Indebtedness, the Notes are secured by a Lien that is senior in priority to such Lien.

(b) Any Lien created for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes pursuant to Section 4.03(a) will provide by its terms that any such Lien shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of the Lien on such other Indebtedness, without any further action required of the Company, any Subsidiary or the Trustee.

(c) The expansion of Liens by virtue of accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the payment of interest or dividends in the form of additional Indebtedness, amortization of original issue discount and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies or increases in the value of property securing Indebtedness will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Liens for purposes of this Section 4.03.

(d) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.03, (i) a Lien need not be incurred solely by reference to one category of Permitted Liens but may be incurred under any combination of such categories (including in part under one such category and in part under any other such category) and (ii) in the event that a Lien (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of one or more of such categories of Permitted Liens or may be incurred in compliance with the terms described under Section 4.03, the Company shall, in its sole discretion, classify or may subsequently reclassify at any time such Lien (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this Section 4.03 (including by complying with the terms described under Section 4.05) and the definition of Permitted Liens.

Section 4.04 Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control Triggering Event.

(a) If a Change of Control occurs and is accompanied by a Ratings Events (together, a “Change of Control Triggering Event”), each Holder of Notes will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes pursuant to an offer by the Company (a “Change of Control Offer”) on the terms set forth in this Supplemental Indenture. In the Change of Control Offer, the Company will offer a 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 not including, the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment”), subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date. Within thirty days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Company will deliver electronically in pdf format or mail a notice to each Holder with a copy to the Trustee or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of DTC describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase Notes on the date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed or otherwise delivered (a “Change of Control Payment Date”), pursuant to the procedures required by the Indenture and described in such notice. The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Indenture, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will

not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Indenture by virtue of such compliance.

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

(1) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

(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 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 repurchased by the Company.

The Paying Agent will promptly send to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any. The Company will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

(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 the Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer; provided, however, in the event that such third party terminates, or defaults under, its offer, the Company will be required to make a Change of Control Offer treating the date of such termination or default as though it were the date of the Change of Control Triggering Event; or

(2) notice of redemption has been given pursuant to the Indenture as described above under Section 3.03, unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 4.04, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event, conditioned upon 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.

Section 4.05 Exempted Transactions.

(a) Notwithstanding Sections 4.03 and 4.07, the Company and any Subsidiary may (1) create, incur or assume any Lien upon any property or assets, or (2) consummate any Sale and Lease Back Transaction if: (i) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all secured Indebtedness for borrowed money of the Company and its Subsidiaries that is secured by Liens on any of their property or assets, now owned or hereafter acquired (which amount shall exclude Indebtedness secured by Liens incurred pursuant to clauses (2) through (24) of the definition of Permitted Liens), plus (ii) the aggregate Attributable Indebtedness in respect of Sale and Lease Back Transactions that is subject to the restriction on Sale and Lease Back Transactions described above does not exceed an amount that would cause the Consolidated Net Secured Leverage Ratio for the period immediately preceding the creation, incurrence

or assumption of such a Lien or consummation of such Sale and Lease Back Transaction, as applicable, to be greater than 3.50 to 1.00, calculated on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the creation, incurrence or assumption of such Lien described above and/or such Attributable Indebtedness in respect of Sale and Lease Back Transactions that is subject to the restriction on Sale and Lease Back Transactions described above. The Company and any Subsidiary may guarantee any Lien created, incurred or assumed and any Sale and Lease Back Transaction consummated, in each case, in compliance with the terms described in this paragraph.

(b) In the event any Lien is created, incurred or assumed or any Sale and Lease Back Transaction is consummated, in each case, in reliance upon compliance with the Consolidated Net Secured Leverage Ratio described above, concurrently with creation, incurrence or assumption of any Permitted Lien, then solely for purposes of calculating the Consolidated Net Secured Leverage Ratio at such time (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not in any subsequent calculation of the Consolidated Net Secured Leverage Ratio at a subsequent time), the Consolidated Net Secured Leverage Ratio will be calculated without regard to the creation, incurrence or assumption of any such Permitted Lien.

Section 4.06 Additional Note Guarantees.

If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries acquires or creates another Domestic Subsidiary that is a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary after the date of this Supplemental Indenture that guarantees or otherwise becomes an obligor with respect to any Indebtedness of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries under a Credit Facility, then such Domestic Subsidiary will become a Guarantor and execute a supplemental indenture and deliver an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee within 45 business days of the date such Domestic Subsidiary guarantees or otherwise becomes an obligor with respect to any Indebtedness of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries under a Credit Facility; provided that any such Domestic Subsidiary that constitutes an Immaterial Subsidiary need not become a Guarantor until such time as it ceases to be an Immaterial Subsidiary. Each Note Guarantee of a Domestic Subsidiary that is a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary will provide by its terms that it will be automatically released under the circumstances described in Article 9. Beginning on the Fall Away Date and continuing at all times thereafter regardless of any subsequent changes in the ratings of the Notes, this Section 4.06 will permanently cease to be in effect with respect to the Notes.

The Company may elect, in its sole discretion, to cause any Subsidiary that is not otherwise required to be a Guarantor to become a Guarantor, in which case such Subsidiary shall not be required to comply with the 45 business day period described above.

Section 4.07 Sale and Leaseback Transactions.

(a) Except as permitted under Section 4.05, the Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, engage in the sale or transfer by the Company or any Subsidiary of any property to a Person (other than the Company or a Subsidiary) and the taking back by the Company or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, of a lease of such property (a “Sale and Leaseback Transaction”) unless:

(1) the Company or such Subsidiary could incur Indebtedness secured by a Lien on the property to be leased without equally and ratably securing the Notes;

(2) the property leased pursuant to such arrangement is sold for a price at least equal to such property’s fair value (as determined by the Company in good faith); or

(3) within 365 days of the effective date of any such Sale and Lease Back Transaction, the Company applies the Net Proceeds of the sale of the leased property, less the amount

of Net Proceeds used to prepay, redeem or purchase the Notes, (i) to the prepayment or retirement of Indebtedness of the Company and its Subsidiaries (which may include the Notes) and/or (ii) the acquisition, construction or improvement of any property or assets.

ARTICLE 5.
successors

Section 5.01 Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets.

The provisions in Article V of the Original Indenture shall not apply with respect to the Notes, and this Article 5 supersedes the entirety thereof.

(a) The Company will not, directly or indirectly: (1) consolidate or merge with or into another Person (whether or not the Company is the surviving corporation), or (2) sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, in one or more related transactions, to another Person, unless:

(1) either:

(A) the Company is the surviving corporation; or

(B) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Company) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition has been made (the “Successor Company”) is an entity organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state of the United States, District of Columbia or any territory thereof; and, if such entity is not a corporation, a co-obligor of the Notes is a corporation organized or existing under any such laws;

(2) the Successor Company (if other than the Company) assumes all the obligations of the Company under the Notes and this Supplemental Indenture pursuant to a supplemental indenture substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, or, in each case, pursuant to other documents or instruments reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee; and

(3) immediately after such transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists.

(b) The Successor Company will succeed to, and be substituted for, the Company under the Indenture and the Notes and the Company will automatically be released and discharged from its obligations under the Indenture and the Notes, but in the case of a lease of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, the Company will not be released from the obligation to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes.

(1) the Company or any Subsidiary may consolidate or amalgamate with or merge with or into or transfer all or part of its properties and assets to the Company or another Subsidiary, and

(2) the Company may merge with or into an Affiliate solely for the purpose of reincorporating the Company in another jurisdiction.

Section 5.02 Successor Corporation Substituted.

In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition set forth in Section 5.01, in which the Company is not the Successor Company and upon the assumption by the Successor Company by supplemental indenture executed and delivered to the Trustee of the due and punctual payment of the principal of and interest on all of the Notes, and the due and punctual performance and observance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Supplemental Indenture to be performed or satisfied by the Company, such Successor Company shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under this Supplemental Indenture, with the same effect as if it had been named herein as the party of this first part, and the Company shall be discharged from its obligations under the Notes and this Supplemental Indenture, except in the case of any such lease, as provided in Section 5.01(b). Such Successor Company thereupon may cause to be signed, and may issue either in its own name or in the name of the Company any or all of the Notes, issuable hereunder that theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee; and, upon the order of such Successor Company instead of the Company and subject to all the terms, conditions and limitations in this Supplemental Indenture prescribed, the Trustee shall authenticate and shall deliver, or cause to be authenticated and delivered, any Notes that previously shall have been signed and delivered by the officers of the Company to the Trustee for authentication, and any Notes that such Successor Company thereafter shall cause to be signed and delivered to the Trustee for that purpose. All the Notes so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Supplemental Indenture as the Notes theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Supplemental Indenture as though all of such Notes had been issued at the date of the execution hereof. In the event of any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or other disposition upon compliance with this Article 5 the person named as the “Company” in the first paragraph of this Supplemental Indenture or any successor that shall thereafter have become such in the manner prescribed in this Article 5 may be dissolved, wound up and liquidated at any time thereafter and such person shall be discharged from its liabilities as obligor and maker of the Notes and from its obligations under this Supplemental Indenture with respect to the Notes.

(5) default with respect to any mortgage, agreement or other instrument under which there may be outstanding, or by which may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed in excess of $100.0 million in the aggregate by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, whether such Indebtedness or Guarantee now exists, or is created after the date of this Supplemental Indenture, if that default:

(a) constitutes a failure to pay the principal or interest of any such Indebtedness or Guarantee when due and payable at its Stated Maturity, upon required repurchase, upon declaration or otherwise (subject to any applicable grace period); or

(b) results in such Indebtedness becoming or being declared due and payable;

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

So long as any of the Notes are outstanding, the Company will deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days of any Officer becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default that is continuing, an Officer’s Certificate specifying such Default or Event of Default and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Upon any such declaration, the Notes shall become due and payable immediately.

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of all of the Holders of all the Notes, rescind an acceleration and its consequences under the Indenture, if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on, if any, the Notes.

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 of, premium on, if any, or interest, if any, on, the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or the 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 aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences hereunder, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on, the Notes (including in connection with an offer to purchase); provided, however, that the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may rescind 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 the Indenture with respect to the Notes; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

In the event of any Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(5), such Event of Default and all consequences thereof (excluding any resulting payment default, other than as a result of acceleration of the Notes) shall be annulled, waived and rescinded, automatically and without any action by the Trustee or the Holders, if within 20 days after such Event of Default arose: (1) the Indebtedness or Note Guarantee that is the basis for such Event of Default has been discharged; or (2) Holders thereof have rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or action (as the case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default; or (3) the default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured.

Section 6.05 Control by Majority.

Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then 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 it. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or the Indenture that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holders (it being understood that the Trustee does not have the affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not any such directions are unduly prejudicial to such Holders) of a Note or that could result in personal liability for the Trustee.

Section 6.06 Limitation on Suits.

In case an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under the Indenture at the request or direction of any Holders of Notes unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, when due, no Holder of a Note may pursue any remedy with respect to the Indenture or the Notes unless:

(1)

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

(2)

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

(3)

such Holder or Holders offer and, if requested, provide to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense;

(4)

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

(5)

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

Section 6.07 Collection Suit by Trustee.

If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(1) or (2) hereof occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as Trustee of an express trust against the Company for the whole amount of principal of, premium on, if any, and interest remaining unpaid on, the Notes and 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, its agents and counsel.

ARTICLE 7.
LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

Section 7.01 Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

The provisions in Article VIII of the Original Indenture shall not apply with respect to the Notes, and this Article 7 supersedes the entirety thereof. The Company may at any time, at the option of its Board of Directors evidenced by a resolution set forth in an Officer’s Certificate, elect to have either Section 7.02 or 7.03 hereof be applied to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article 7.

Section 7.02 Legal Defeasance and Discharge.

Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 7.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 7.02, the Company and each of the Guarantors will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to the Indenture and all outstanding Notes (including the Note Guarantees) on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company and the Guarantors will be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes (including the Note Guarantees), which will thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 7.05 hereof and the other Sections of this Supplemental Indenture referred to in clauses (1) and (2) below, and to have satisfied all their other obligations under such Notes, the Note Guarantees and the Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which will survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:

(1) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on, such Notes when such payments are due from the trust referred to below;

(2) the Company’s obligations with respect to the Notes concerning issuing temporary Notes, registration of Notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for security payments held in trust;

(3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee under the Indenture, and the Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations in connection therewith; and

(4) this Article 7.

Following the Company’s exercise of its Legal Defeasance option, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default.

Subject to compliance with this Article 7, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 7.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 7.03 hereof.

Section 7.03 Covenant Defeasance.

Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 7.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 7.03, the Company and each of the Guarantors will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7.04 hereof, be released from each of their obligations under the covenants contained in Article 4 hereof, clause (3) of Section 5.01(a) hereof and Sections 4.3, 4.5, 4.6 and 4.7 of the Original Indenture, in each case with respect to the outstanding Notes, and the Guarantors will 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 7.04 hereof are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes will 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 will continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes will not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes and Note Guarantees, the Company and the Guarantors may omit to comply with and will 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 will not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of the Indenture and such Notes and Note Guarantees will be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Company’s exercise under Section 7.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 7.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7.04 hereof, Sections 6.01 (3), (4), (5), (6), (7) and (8) hereof will not constitute Events of Default.

Section 7.04 Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance.

In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance under either Section 7.02 or 7.03 hereof:

(1) the Company must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, premium on, if any, and interest on, the outstanding Notes on the stated date for payment thereof or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Company must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to such stated date for payment or to a particular redemption date;

(2) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that:

(A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling; or

(B) since the date of this Supplemental Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law (or official interpretation thereof),

in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Beneficial Owners of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to 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;

(3) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that the Beneficial Owners of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to 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;

(4) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit (and any similar concurrent deposit relating to other Indebtedness), and the granting of Liens to secure such borrowings);

(5) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than the Indenture and the agreements governing any other Indebtedness being defeased, discharged or replaced) to which the Company or any of the Guarantors is a party or by which the Company or any of the Guarantors is bound (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit (and any similar concurrent deposit relating to other Indebtedness) and the granting of Liens to secure such borrowings);

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

(7) the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with.

Section 7.05 Deposited Money and Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions.

Subject to Section 7.06, all money and non-callable Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 7.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 7.04 in respect of the outstanding Notes will be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and the Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

The Company will pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 7.04 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 of the outstanding Notes.

Notwithstanding anything in this Article 7 to the contrary, the Trustee will deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon the request of the Company any money or non-callable Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 7.04 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 7.04(1)), 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 7.06 Repayment to Company.

Subject to the requirements of applicable law, any monies deposited with or paid to the Trustee for payment of the principal of or interest on the Notes and not applied but remaining unclaimed by the Holders of the Notes for two years after the date upon which the principal of or interest on such Notes, as the case may be, shall have become due and payable, shall be repaid to the Company by the Trustee on demand, and all liability of the Trustee shall thereupon cease with respect to such monies; and the Holder of any of the Notes shall thereafter look only to the Company for any payment or delivery that such Holder of the Notes may be entitled to collect unless an applicable abandoned property law designates another person.

Section 7.07 Reinstatement.

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any U.S. dollars or non-callable Government Securities in accordance with Section 7.02 or 7.03, 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 Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations under the Indenture and the Notes and the Note Guarantees will be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 7.02 or 7.03 until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 7.02 or 7.03, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Company makes any payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on, any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company will be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

ARTICLE 8.
SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

Section 8.01 Satisfaction and Discharge of the Supplemental Indenture. Articles VIII and XI of the Original Indenture shall not apply to the Notes. Instead, the satisfaction and discharge provisions set forth in this Article 8 shall, with respect to the Notes, supersede in their entirety Articles VIII and XI of the Original Indenture, and all references in the Original Indenture to Articles VIII and XI thereof and satisfaction and discharge provisions therein, as the case may be, shall, with respect to the Notes, be deemed to be references to this Article 9 and the satisfaction and discharge provisions set forth in this Article 8, respectively.

The Indenture will be discharged with respect to the Notes and will cease to be of further effect as to all Notes issued hereunder, when:

(1) either:

(a) 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 in trust and thereafter repaid to the Company, have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

(b) all Notes that have not been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the giving of a notice of redemption or otherwise or will become due and payable within one year or are to be called for redemption within one year and the Company or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal of, premium on, if any, and interest on, the Notes to the date of maturity or redemption;

(2) in respect of clause 1(b), no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of the deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit and any similar deposit relating to other Indebtedness and, in each case, the granting of Liens to secure such borrowings) and the deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other material instrument to which the Company or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Company or any Guarantor is bound (other than with respect to the borrowing of funds to be applied concurrently to make the deposit required to effect such satisfaction and discharge and any similar concurrent deposit relating to other Indebtedness, and in each case the granting of Liens to secure such borrowings);

(3) the Company or any Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by it under the Indenture with respect to the Notes; and

(4) the Company has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under the Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at maturity or on the redemption date, as the case may be.

In addition, the Company must deliver an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied.

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture, if money has been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (b) of clause (1) of this Section 8.01, the provisions of Sections 8.02 and 7.06 will survive. In addition, nothing in this Section 8.01 will be deemed to discharge those provisions of Section 7.6 of the Original Indenture, that, by their terms, survive the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture.

Section 8.02 Application of Trust Money.

Subject to the provisions of Section 7.06, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 8.01 shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and the Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its 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.

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with Section 8.01 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company’s and any Guarantor’s obligations under the Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.01; provided that if the Company has

made any payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest, on, any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or Government Securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

ARTICLE 9.
Note Guarantees

Section 9.01 Guarantee.

Subject to this Article 9, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of the Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Company hereunder or thereunder, that:

(1) the principal of, premium on, if any, and interest, on, the Notes will be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of, premium on, if any, and interest, on, the Notes, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Company to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder will 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 will be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise.

Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors will 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 are unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or the Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, 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 Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenant that this Note Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete performance of the Obligations contained in the Notes and the Indenture.

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

(d) Each Guarantor agrees that it will not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (1) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 for the purposes of such Guarantor’s 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) will forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of such Guarantor’s Note Guarantee. The Guarantors will 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 Guarantee.

Section 9.02 [RESERVED].

Section 9.03 Limitation on Guarantor Liability.

Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Note Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Note Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount that 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 9, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Note Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. Each Guarantor that makes a payment under its Note Guarantee will be entitled upon payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations under the Indenture to a contribution from each other Guarantor in an amount equal to such other Guarantor’s pro rata portion of such payment based on the respective net assets of all the Guarantors at the time of such payment, determined in accordance with GAAP.

Section 9.04 Execution and Delivery.

To evidence its Note Guarantee set forth in Section 9.01, each Guarantor hereby agrees that this Supplemental Indenture will be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by one of its Officers.

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Note Guarantee set forth in Section 9.01 will remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of any notation of such Guarantee on the Notes.

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

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

In the event that the Company or any of its Subsidiaries creates or acquires any Domestic Subsidiary after the date of this Supplemental Indenture, if required by Section 4.06, the Company will cause such Domestic Subsidiary to comply with the provisions of Section 4.06 and this Article 9, to the extent applicable.

Section 9.05 Guarantors May Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms.

Subject to Section 9.06, a Guarantor may not sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets to, or consolidate with or merge with or into another Person other than the Company or another Guarantor unless, immediately after giving effect to such transaction:

(a) such Guarantor shall be the surviving Person or the surviving Person (if other than such Guarantor) (such Guarantor or such surviving Person, as the case may be, the “Surviving Guarantor”) formed by such merger, consolidation or amalgamation shall expressly assume, by supplemental indenture in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, executed and delivered to the Trustee by such surviving Person, the due and punctual payment of the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on, the notes, according to their tenor, and the due and punctual performance and observance of all the covenants and conditions of the Indenture to be performed by such Guarantor;

(b) the Company shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee an officer’s certificate and an opinion of counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for in the indenture relating to such transaction or series of transactions have been satisfied; and

(c) immediately before and after giving effect to such transaction or series of transactions on a pro forma basis, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

The Surviving Guarantor shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of such Guarantor under the Indenture.

Except as set forth in Articles 4 and 5, and notwithstanding the foregoing, any Guarantor may (i) merge into or transfer all or part of its properties and assets to another Guarantor or the Company, (ii) merge with an Affiliate of the Company solely for the purpose of reincorporating or reorganizing the Guarantor in the United States, any state thereof, the District of Columbia or any territory thereof or (iii) convert into a Person organized or existing under the laws of a jurisdiction in the United States.

Section 9.06 Releases.

(a) The Note Guarantee of a Guarantor will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged:

(1) in connection with any sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of that Guarantor, by way of merger, consolidation or otherwise, to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Company;

(2) in connection with any sale or other disposition of Capital Stock of that Guarantor to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company, if the Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Company as a result of the sale or other disposition;

(3) if that Guarantor ceases to be a guarantor or other obligor with respect to any Indebtedness under any Credit Facility; provided, however, that if, at any time following such release, that Guarantor subsequently guarantees or otherwise becomes an obligor with respect to any Indebtedness of the Company under a Credit Facility, then that Guarantor will be required to provide a Note Guarantee in accordance with Section 4.06;

(4) upon legal defeasance, covenant defeasance or satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture as provided in Article 7 and Article 8; or

(5) on the Fall Away Date.

(b) Any release and discharge pursuant to Section 9.06(a) shall occur automatically upon the consummation of any such transaction without any further action required of the Company, the applicable Guarantor or the Trustee; provided that the Trustee shall be entitled to an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for in the Indenture relating to such transaction have been complied with.

(1)

the Notes are rated Investment Grade by both Rating Agencies; and

(2)

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

then, beginning on that day (the “Fall Away Date”) and continuing at all times thereafter regardless of any subsequent changes in the rating of the Notes, the Note Guarantees of each of the Guarantors will be automatically released and Section 4.06 shall cease to apply to the Notes.

ARTICLE 10.
SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES

Section 10.01 Supplemental Indentures Without Consent of Holders. In lieu of Section 9.1 of the Original Indenture, the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees without notice to or the consent of any Holder of the Notes:

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

(e) to comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “TIA”);

(f) to conform this Supplemental Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees and the form or terms of the Notes to the “Description of Notes” section as set forth in the offering memorandum dated March 28, 2018 related to the offering and sale of the Notes as determined in good faith by the Company;

(l) to make any amendment to the provisions of the Indenture relating to the transfer or legending of the Notes; provided, however, that (i) compliance with this Supplemental Indenture as so amended would not result in notes being transferred in violation of the Securities Act, or any applicable securities law and (ii) such amendment does not materially and adversely affect the rights of Holders to transfer Notes.

The consent of the Holders is not necessary to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment. It is sufficient if such consent approves the substance of the proposed amendment.

then the Trustee shall cancel such Definitive Note and cause, or direct the Securities Custodian to cause, in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depositary and the Securities 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 no Global Notes are then outstanding and the Global Note has not been previously exchanged for certificated Notes pursuant to Section 2.4, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate, upon written order of the Company in the form of an Officer’s Certificate, a new Global Note in the appropriate principal amount.

(c) Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes. (i) The transfer and exchange of Global Notes or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with this Indenture (including applicable restrictions on transfer set forth herein, if any) and the procedures of the Depositary therefor.

Transfers by an owner of a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Note to a transferee who takes delivery of such interest through the Regulation S Global Note, whether before or after the expiration of the Restricted Period, shall be made only upon receipt by the Trustee of a certification in the form provided on the reverse of the Initial Notes from the transferor to the effect that such transfer is being made in accordance with Regulation S or (if available) Rule 144 under the Securities Act and that, if such transfer is being made prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period, the interest transferred shall be held immediately thereafter through Euroclear or Clearstream.

(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 (other than the provisions set forth in Section 2.4), a Global Note may not be transferred as a whole except by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary.

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

(1) Interest. Xxxxxxx River Laboratories International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), promises to pay or cause to be paid interest on the principal amount of this Note at 5.500% per annum from April 3, 2018 until, but excluding, maturity. The Company will pay interest, if any, semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an “Interest Payment Date”); provided, that the first Interest Payment Date will be October 1, 2018. Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance; provided that, if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date; provided further that the first Interest Payment Date shall be October 1, 2018. The Company will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal at the otherwise applicable interest rate on the Notes to the extent lawful; it will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace period), at the same rate to the extent lawful.

Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. If any interest payment date, the maturity date, any redemption date, or any earlier required repurchase date of a note falls on a day that is not a business day, the required payment will be made on the next succeeding business day and no interest on such payment will accrue in respect of the delay.

(2) Method of Payment. The Company will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the March 15 or September 15 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Original Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. The Company shall pay the principal of and interest on any Global Note in immediately available funds to the Depository or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered Holder of such Global Note. The Company, through the Paying Agent, shall make all payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest, with respect to Physical Notes by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Holders of the Physical Notes or, if no such account is specified, by mailing a check to each such Holder’s registered address. Such payment will be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

(3) Paying Agent and Registrar. Initially, MUFG Union Bank, N.A., the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change the Paying Agent or Registrar without prior notice to the Holders of the Notes. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

(4) Indenture. The Company issued the Notes under a base indenture dated April 3, 2018, between the Company and the Trustee (the “Original Indenture”), as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of April 3, 2018 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and the Original Indenture as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”)
