For purposes of this paragraph, the applicable Treasury constant maturity or maturities on H.15 shall be deemed to have a maturity date equal to the relevant number of months or years, as applicable, of such Treasury constant maturity from the Redemption Date.
If on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date H.15 TCM is no longer published, the Company shall calculate the Treasury Rate based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding such Redemption Date of the United States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the Par Call Date, as applicable. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the Par Call Date, the Company shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date.

In determining the Treasury Rate in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the semi-annual yield to maturity of the applicable United States Treasury security shall be based upon the average of the bid and asked prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, of such United States Treasury security, and rounded to three decimal places.

(b) On or after the Par Call Date, the Notes shall be redeemable on any one or more occasions, as a whole or in part, at the Company’s election, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the Redemption Date.
(c) In the case of any redemption pursuant to this Section 4.02, such redemption is subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date that is on or before the relevant Redemption Date.
(d) The Company will prepare and give, or cause to be given, a notice of redemption to each holder of Notes of a series to be redeemed, with a copy to the Trustee, at least 10 and not more than 60 calendar days prior to the date fixed for redemption. Notice of any such redemption may, at the discretion of the Company, be subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, including in connection with any corporate transaction. If such redemption is so subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Company’s discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time (provided, however, that any delayed Redemption Date shall not be more than 60 days after the date the relevant notice of redemption was sent) as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such redemption or purchase may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the Redemption Date or by the Redemption Date as so delayed. In addition, the Company may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and performance of the Company’s obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.
(e) Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the redemption price and subject to any condition as specified in the relevant redemption notice, interest will cease to accrue on such Notes on the Redemption Date.
Section 4.03. Repurchase of Notes Upon a Change of Control. (a) If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs with respect to the Notes, unless the Company shall have exercised its right to redeem such Notes as described in Section 4.02 of this Eleventh Supplemental Indenture, the Company will be required to make an offer (the “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder of the Notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or in integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any (together, the “Change of Control Payment”), on the Notes repurchased up to, but not including, the date of repurchase (subject to the right of
- 12 -
Holders of record on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date). Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Company will electronically deliver or mail a notice to Holders of the Notes, with a copy to the Trustee, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute or may constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase the Notes on the date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 10 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is electronically delivered or mailed (the “Change of Control Payment Date”) pursuant to the procedures required by this Eleventh Supplemental Indenture and described in such notice.
(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 purchased by the Company.
(c) The Paying Agent will promptly deliver to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly following receipt of an order therefor as required under this Eleventh Supplemental Indenture, authenticate and deliver (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of any 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.
(d) A Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event, and conditioned upon such Change of Control Triggering Event, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of making of the Change of Control Offer.
(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control Triggering Event if (1) a third party makes such an offer in the manner and at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements hereunder for a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and such third party purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer or (2) a notice of redemption has been given pursuant to the Indenture pursuant to which the Company has exercised its right to redeem the Notes in full, unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price.
- 13 -
(f) If Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in a Change of Control Offer and the Company, or any third party making such an offer in lieu of the Company as described above, purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Company or such third party will have the right, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior written notice to the Holders of Notes and the Trustee, given not more than 30 days following the Change of Control Payment Date, to redeem all Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase on a date specified in such notice (the “Second Change of Control Payment Date”) at a redemption price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding, the Second Change of Control Payment Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date).
(g) The Company will comply with the requirements of Section 14e-1 of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent that those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Notes as a result of Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Triggering Event provisions of the Notes, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.03 by virtue of compliance with such securities laws and regulations.
(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture or otherwise, for the avoidance of doubt, the Company’s obligation to repurchase Notes upon a Change of Control Triggering Event may be waived by the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes affected by such waiver.

COVENANTS AND REMEDIES
Section 5.01. Limitation on Liens. (a) If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, incurs, assumes or guarantees any Indebtedness and that Indebtedness is secured by a Lien on any Principal Property (or the Capital Stock of any Subsidiary that owns a Principal Property), the Company will secure the Notes equally and ratably with (or at the option of the Company, prior to) such secured Indebtedness, so long as such secured Indebtedness shall be so secured. Any Lien that is granted to secure the Notes under this Section 5.01(a) shall be automatically released and discharged at the same time as the release of the Lien that gave rise to the obligation to secure the Notes under this Section 5.01(a), provided that, solely for purposes of this Section 5.01(a) and Section 5.02, Sands China Ltd. and each of its Subsidiaries shall not constitute Subsidiaries of the Company and shall not be restricted thereunder.
(b) The foregoing restrictions shall not apply to Indebtedness that is secured by:
(1) Liens existing on the Issue Date (including the MBS Credit Facility);
- 14 -
(2) ▇▇▇▇▇ created in connection with a project financed with, and created to secure, a Nonrecourse Obligation;
(3) Liens on any property or Capital Stock of a Person existing at the time the Person becomes a Subsidiary or Liens in existence at the time of the acquisition of the assets encumbered thereby (including, in each case, without limitation, acquisition through merger or consolidation), in each case, which were not incurred in anticipation thereof;
(4) Liens on property or Capital Stock acquired, constructed, altered, improved or repaired by the Company or any Subsidiary and created prior to, at the time of, or within 360 days (or thereafter if such Lien is created pursuant to a binding commitment entered into prior to, at the time of or within 360 days) after such acquisition (including, without limitation, acquisition through merger or consolidation), construction, alteration, improvement or repair (or the completion of such construction, alteration, improvement or repair or commencement of commercial operation of such property, whichever is later) to secure or provide for the payment of all or any part of the price thereof so long as such Liens are no greater than the payment or price, as the case may be, for the property or Capital Stock acquired, constructed, altered, improved or repaired (plus an amount equal to any fees, expenses or other costs payable in connection therewith);
(5) Liens securing Indebtedness or other obligations of a Subsidiary owing to the Company or another Subsidiary; and
(6) Liens in favor of the Company or its Subsidiaries.
For purposes of Section 5.01(b)(1), commitments under the MBS Credit Facility shall be deemed to be Indebtedness in existence as of the Issue Date and any subsequent incurrence of Indebtedness under such commitments shall not be deemed to be an incurrence of additional Indebtedness or an additional Lien at such subsequent time, provided that if the MBS Credit Facility is amended or supplemented subsequent to the Issue Date, including to increase the commitments thereunder, this paragraph shall only be applicable in respect of Indebtedness incurred up to the amount of the commitments under the MBS Credit Facility in existence as of the Issue Date.
Liens securing Indebtedness incurred under the MBS Credit Facility (including pursuant to any amendment or supplement thereto) subsequent to the Issue Date to finance development and construction costs, fees and other expenses related to the MBS Expansion Project (as defined and described in the Prospectus Supplement) shall be deemed to be incurred under Section 5.01(b)(4), so long as such Liens are created within the required periods under, and are no greater than the amounts permitted by, Section 5.01(b)(4).
For the avoidance of doubt, an increase in the amount of Indebtedness in connection with any accrual of interest, accretion of accreted value, amortization of original issue discount, payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, and accretion of original issue discount and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding
- 15 -
solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies or increases in the value of property securing Indebtedness, shall not constitute an assumption, incurrence or guarantee for the purposes of this covenant, so long as the original Liens securing such Indebtedness were permitted under the Indenture.
(c) Notwithstanding the restrictions set forth in Section 5.01(a), without securing the Notes as set forth in Section 5.01(a), the Company and its Subsidiaries may, directly or indirectly, incur, assume or guarantee any Indebtedness secured by Liens not otherwise permitted by this Section 5.01 if the sum of (i) the aggregate of all Indebtedness secured by such Liens and (ii) any Attributable Debt related to any sale and leaseback arrangement permitted under Section 5.02(4) does not exceed the greater of (i) 15% of the Company's total Consolidated Net Assets and (ii) $1.5 billion.
(d) Any sale and leaseback arrangement incurred pursuant to clauses (1), (2), (3), (5), (6) or (7) of Section 5.02 shall be deemed to be permitted pursuant to this Section 5.01.
(e) The restrictions set forth in Section 5.01(a) do not apply to extensions, renewals or replacements of any Indebtedness (and for the avoidance doubt, any successive extensions, renewals or replacements of such Indebtedness) secured by the foregoing types of Liens (other than Liens securing the MBS Credit Facility pursuant to Section 5.01(b)(1) above), so long as the principal amount of Indebtedness secured thereby shall not exceed the amount of Indebtedness existing at the time of such extension, renewal or replacement (plus an amount equal to any premiums, accrued interest, fees, expenses or other costs payable in connection therewith).
Section 5.02. Limitation on Sale and Leaseback Transactions. The Company and its Subsidiaries will not enter into any Sale and Leaseback Transaction, unless:
(1) such transaction exists on the Issue Date or at the time any Person that owns a Principal Property becomes a Subsidiary;
(2) such transaction involves a lease for a term of not more than three years;
(3) such transaction is entered into between or among the Company and its Subsidiaries;
(4) the Company or the Subsidiary would be entitled to incur Indebtedness secured by a Lien on the Principal Property at least equal in amount to the Attributable Debt permitted pursuant to Section 5.01(c) without equally and ratably securing the Notes pursuant to Section 5.01(a);
(5) the lease payment is created in connection with a project financed with, and such obligation constitutes, a Nonrecourse Obligation;
(6) the proceeds of such transaction are at least equal to the fair market value (as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors in good faith) of the
- 16 -
Principal Property and the Company applies within 180 days after the sale an amount equal to the greater of the net proceeds of the sale or the Attributable Debt associated with the Principal Property to (i) the retirement of long-term debt for borrowed money that is not subordinated to the Notes and that is not debt to the Company or a Subsidiary, or (ii) the purchase, construction, improvement, expansion or development of other comparable property; or
(7) such transaction is entered into within 180 days after the initial acquisition of the Principal Property subject to such transaction.
Section 5.03. Company May Consolidate, Etc., Only on Certain Terms. (a) Section 6.04 of the Base Indenture shall not apply to the Notes, and the following shall apply in lieu thereof. The Company shall not consolidate with or merge into another Person (whether or not the Company is the continuing Person) or sell, assign, transfer, 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 any other Person, unless:
(1) either (A) the Company is the continuing Person 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, conveyance or other disposition shall have been made (the “Continuing Entity”) is an entity organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state of the United States or the District of Columbia;
(2) the Continuing Entity expressly assumes, by an indenture supplemental to the Indenture, all of the Company’s obligations under the Notes and the Indenture;
(3) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default (as defined below) shall have occurred and be continuing; and
(4) the Company or the Continuing Entity delivers to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, subject to customary qualifications and exceptions, each stating that such consolidation, merger, assignment, transfer or conveyance and, if a supplemental indenture is required in connection with such transaction, such supplemental indenture complies with this Section 5.03 and that all conditions precedent provided for in the Indenture relating to such transaction have been satisfied.
(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.03, any conveyance, transfer or lease of an asset or property between or among the Company and its Subsidiaries will not be prohibited under the Indenture.
For the avoidance of doubt, a pledge, mortgage, charge, lien, encumbrance, hypothecation or grant of any other security interest on an asset or property shall not be considered as a sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or disposal of such asset or property.
- 17 -
Section 5.04. Events of Default. Section 7.01 of the Base Indenture shall not apply to the Notes. Each of the following events shall constitute an “Event of Default” with respect to the Notes:

(e) 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 Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries), whether such Indebtedness or guarantee existed on the date of the Indenture, or is created after the date of the Indenture, if that default results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity, and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $250.0 million or more, if such acceleration is not annulled within 30 days after written notice from the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes;
(f) failure by the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries to pay final non-appealable judgments (not paid or covered by insurance as to which the relevant insurance company has not denied responsibility) rendered against the Company or any Significant Subsidiary aggregating in excess of $250.0 million, which judgments are not paid, bonded, discharged or stayed for a period of 60 days;

(3) orders the liquidation of the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries;
and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days.
Section 5.05. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. Section 7.02 of the Base Indenture shall not apply to the Notes, and the following shall apply in lieu thereof. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default pursuant to Section 5.04(g) or Section 5.04(h)) occurs and is continuing with respect to the Notes, then the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes may, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if
given by Holders), declare the principal amount of all such Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such Notes to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration such principal amount and accrued and unpaid interest shall become immediately due and payable. However, upon an Event of Default pursuant to Section 5.04(g) or Section 5.04(h), the principal amount of all outstanding Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding Notes to the acceleration date, shall be due and payable immediately without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.
At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to the Notes has been made but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes, by written notice to the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration or waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences if all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of the principal and interest, if any, of Notes which have become due solely as a result of such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 7.06 of the Base Indenture. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. If any Interest Payment Date, Stated Maturity or other payment date with respect to the Notes is not a Business Day, the required payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest will be due on the next succeeding Business Day as if made on the date that such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on that payment for the period from and after that Interest Payment Date, Stated Maturity or other payment date, as the case may be, to the date of that payment on the next succeeding Business Day.
