Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Indenture and Notes

On March 26, 2026, Wolfspeed, Inc. (the “Company”) issued $379,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 3.5% Convertible 1.5 Lien Senior Secured Notes due 2031 (the “Notes”) in a private placement (the “Notes Placement”). The Notes were issued pursuant to, and are governed by, an indenture (the “Indenture”), dated as of March 26, 2026, among the Company, Wolfspeed Texas LLC (“Wolfspeed Texas”), as subsidiary guarantor (in such capacity, the “Guarantor”), and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (in such capacity, the “Trustee”) and collateral agent (in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”).

The Notes are guaranteed on a senior basis by the Guarantor, and the Notes and the related guarantee by the Guarantor are senior, secured obligations of the Company and the Guarantor, secured by substantially all assets of the Company and the Guarantor (the “Collateral”). The Notes and related guarantee are effectively subordinated to all secured indebtedness of the Company and the Guarantor that is secured by a lien on the Collateral that is senior or prior to the lien on the Collateral securing the Notes (including obligations under the Company’s existing Senior Secured Notes due 2030 (the “Senior Notes”)) and are effectively senior to all indebtedness of the Company and the Guarantor that is not secured by a lien on the Collateral, or that is secured by a lien ranking junior to the lien on the Collateral securing the Notes (including the Company’s existing 2.5% Convertible Second Lien Senior Secured Notes due 2031 and 7.00%/12.00% Second Lien Senior Secured PIK Toggle Notes due 2031).

The Notes bear cash interest at a rate of 3.5% per year. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, commencing on September 15, 2026. The Notes mature on March 15, 2031, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted.

Noteholders have the right to convert their Notes at any time at their election (subject to certain limitations) until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. The initial conversion rate for the Notes is 49.6623 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.00125 per share (the “Common Stock”), per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes (which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $20.14 per share of Common Stock, which represents a conversion premium of approximately 20.0% over the last reported sale price of $16.78 per share of Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange on March 18, 2026), and is subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. Conversions of the Notes will be settled in cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination thereof, at the Company’s election.

If a “Fundamental Change” (as defined in the Indenture) occurs, then, subject to limited exceptions, noteholders may require the Company to repurchase their Notes for cash at a repurchase price equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the applicable repurchase date. The definition of “Fundamental Change” includes certain business combination transactions involving the Company and certain de-listing events with respect to the Common Stock.

The Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part, for cash at the Company’s option at any time, and from time to time, on or after March 20, 2028, and on or before the 35th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, but only if the last reported sale price per share of Common Stock exceeds 175% of the conversion price for a certain period of time if the redemption date occurs on or before March 19, 2029 and 130% of the conversion price for a certain period of time if the redemption occurs on or after March 20, 2029, in each case subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. The redemption price will be equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date.

The above description of the Indenture and the Notes is a summary and is not complete. A copy of the Indenture, and the form of the certificate representing the Notes, are filed as Exhibits 4.1 and 4.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and the above summary is qualified by reference to the terms of the Indenture and the Notes set forth in such exhibits.

Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

To the extent required by Item 2.03 of Form 8-K, the information regarding the Notes Placement set forth under Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.

Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Interests.

To the extent required by Item 3.02 of Form 8-K, the information regarding the Notes Placement set forth under Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02.

In addition, as previously disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on March 19, 2026, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with certain investors in connection with a private placement offering (such private placement, together with the Notes Placement, the “Private Placements”) of shares of Common Stock and pre-funded warrants to purchase Common Stock. On March 26, 2026, pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company issued and sold an aggregate of 3,250,030 shares of Common Stock (the “Shares”) and pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants” and, together with the Shares and the Notes, the “Securities”) to purchase up to 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock. The price per Share was $18.458, and the price per Pre-Funded Warrant was $18.448, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $96.9 million.

The Pre-Funded Warrants have an exercise price of $0.01 per underlying share of Common Stock, exercisable at any time until each is fully exercised, and will not expire until each is fully exercised, subject to the ownership limitations described below. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of each Pre-Funded Warrant is subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of certain stock dividends and distributions, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting the Common Stock, as well as upon certain distributions of assets, including cash, stock or other property, to the Company’s stockholders. The Pre-Funded Warrants include a beneficial ownership blocker that provides that the holder may not exercise (nor may the Company allow the exercise of) such Pre-Funded Warrant if, upon giving effect to such exercise, such exercise would cause the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the holder (together with affiliates and any other persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated for the purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) to exceed 9.99% of the total number of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock as determined in accordance with the terms of each Pre-Funded Warrant; provided that the Pre-Funded Warrant holder may decrease (and later increase) such percentage to a percentage not in excess of 9.99% effective on or after the 61st day after notice of such increase or decrease is delivered to the Company. The above description of the Pre-Funded Warrants is a summary and is not complete. A form of the Pre-Funded Warrant is filed as Exhibit 4.7 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and the foregoing summary is qualified by reference to the terms of the Pre-Funded Warrant set forth in such exhibit.

The offer and sale of the Securities and the shares of Common Stock underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants and the Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Company issued the Securities in reliance on exemptions from registration provided for under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder. Any shares of Common Stock that may be issued upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants will be issued in reliance upon Section 4(a)(2) or Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, and any shares of Common Stock that may be issued upon conversion of the Notes will be issued in reliance upon Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act. Initially, a maximum of 22,586,391 shares of Common Stock may be issued upon conversion of the Notes, based on the initial maximum conversion rate of 59.5947 shares per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes, which is subject to customary anti-dilution adjustment provisions.

[RESERVED].

When calculating the availability under any basket or ratio under this Indenture or compliance with any provision of this Indenture in

connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, any actions or transactions related thereto (including, without limitation, acquisitions, Investments, the incurrence of Indebtedness and issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock and the

use of proceeds therefrom, the incurrence of Liens and Restricted Payments), and determining compliance with Defaults and Events of Default, in each case, at the option of the Issuer (the Issuer’s election to exercise such option, an

“LCT Election”), the date of determination for availability under any such basket or ratio and whether any such action or transaction is permitted (or any requirement or condition therefor is complied with or satisfied (including,

without limitation, as to the absence of any continuing Default or Event of Default)) under this Indenture shall be deemed to be the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into (or, if applicable, the date

of delivery of an irrevocable notice or similar event) (the “LCT Test Date”), and if, after giving effect to the Limited Condition Transaction and any actions or transactions related thereto (including, without limitation,

acquisitions, Investments, the incurrence of Indebtedness and issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock and the use of proceeds therefrom, the incurrence of Liens and Restricted Payments) on a pro forma basis, the Issuer or any of its

Subsidiaries would have been permitted to take such actions or consummate such transactions on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance

- 49 -

with such ratio, test or basket (and any related requirements and conditions), such ratio, test or basket (and any related requirements and conditions) shall be deemed to have been complied with

(or satisfied) for all purposes under the indenture (in the case of Indebtedness, for example, whether such Indebtedness is committed, issued or otherwise incurred at the LCT Test Date or at any time thereafter); provided that compliance with

such ratios, tests or baskets (and any related requirements and conditions) shall not be determined or tested at any time after the applicable LCT Test Date for such Limited Condition Transaction or any actions or transactions related thereto

(including, without limitation, acquisitions, Investments, the incurrence of Indebtedness and issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock and the use of proceeds therefrom, the incurrence of Liens and Restricted Payments).

For the avoidance of doubt, if the Issuer has made an LCT Election, (1) if any of the ratios, tests or baskets for which compliance was

determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date would at any time after the LCT Test Date have been exceeded or otherwise failed to have been complied with as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio, test or basket, including due to fluctuations in

EBITDA or Consolidated Total Assets of the Issuer or the Person subject to such Limited Condition Transaction, such baskets, tests or ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded or failed to have been complied with as a result of such

fluctuations; (2) if any related requirements and conditions (including as to the absence of any continuing Default or Event of Default) for which compliance or satisfaction was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date would at any time

after the LCT Test Date not have been complied with or satisfied (including due to the occurrence or continuation of a Default or Event of Default), such requirements and conditions will not be deemed to have been failed to be complied with or

satisfied (and such Default or Event of Default shall be deemed not to have occurred or be continuing); and (3) in calculating the availability under any ratio, test or basket in connection with any action or transaction unrelated to such

Limited Condition Transaction following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the date that the definitive agreement or date for redemption, purchase or

repayment specified in an irrevocable notice for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated, expires or passes, as applicable, without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such ratio, test or basket shall be determined or

tested giving pro forma effect to such Limited Condition Transaction.

Additional Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication will be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A. The Notes will bear each legend, if any, required by Section 2.09 and may bear

notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage or the Depositary. Each Note will be dated as of the date of its authentication.

Except to the extent otherwise provided in an Issuer Order delivered to the Trustee in connection with the issuance and authentication

thereof, the Notes will be issued initially in the form of one or more Global Notes. Physical Notes may be exchanged for Global Notes, and Global Notes may be exchanged for Physical Notes, only as provided in Section 2.10.

certificate representing another outstanding Note.

The terms contained in the Notes constitute part of this Indenture, and, to the extent

applicable, the Issuer and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, agree to such terms and to be bound thereby; provided, however, that, to the extent that any provision of any Note conflicts with the provisions

Section 2.02.

EXECUTION, AUTHENTICATION AND DELIVERY.

(A) Due Execution by the

Issuer. At least one (1) duly authorized Officer will sign the Notes on behalf of the Issuer by manual, electronically (including “.pdf” or DocuSign or other electronic signature platform) or facsimile signature. A Note’s

validity will not be affected by the failure of any Officer whose signature is on any Note to hold, at the time such Note is authenticated, the same or any other office at the Issuer.

(B) Authentication by the Trustee and Delivery.

(i) No Note will be valid until it is authenticated by the Trustee. A Note will be deemed to be duly authenticated only when an

authorized signatory of the Trustee (or a duly appointed authenticating agent) manually signs the certificate of authentication of such Note.

(ii) The Trustee will cause an authorized signatory of the Trustee (or a duly appointed authenticating agent) to manually sign

the certificate of authentication of a Note only if (1) the Issuer delivers such Note to the Trustee; (2) such Note is executed by the Issuer in accordance with Section 2.02(A); and (3) the Issuer delivers a

Issuer Order to the Trustee that (a) requests the Trustee to authenticate such Note; and (b) sets forth the name of the Holder of such Note and the date as of which such Note is to be authenticated. If such Issuer Order also requests the

Trustee to deliver such Physical Note to any Holder, then the Trustee will promptly electronically deliver such Note in accordance with such Issuer Order.

(iii) The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate Notes. A duly appointed

authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so under this Indenture, and a Note authenticated as provided in this Indenture by such an agent will be deemed, for purposes of this Indenture, to be authenticated by the

Trustee. Each duly appointed authenticating agent will have the same rights to deal with the Issuer as the Trustee would have if it were performing the duties that the authentication agent was validly appointed to undertake.

Special Interest and Additional Interest that may accrue pursuant to Section 2.05(B), Section 7.03 and Section 3.05, respectively. Stated Interest on each Note will

(i) accrue from, and including, the most recent date to which Stated Interest has been paid or duly provided for (or, if no Stated Interest has theretofore been paid or duly provided for, the date set forth in the certificate representing such

Note as the date from, and including, which

- 52 -

Stated Interest will begin to accrue in such circumstance) to, but excluding, the date of payment of such Stated Interest; and (ii) be, subject to Sections 4.02(D), 4.03(F) and

5.02(D) (but without duplication of any payment of interest), payable semi-annually in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, beginning on the first Interest Payment Date set forth in the certificate representing such Note, to the Holder of

such Note as of the Close of Business on the immediately preceding Regular Record Date. Stated Interest, and, if applicable, Additional Interest and Special Interest, on the Notes will be computed on the basis of a

360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

(B)

Defaulted Amounts. If the Issuer fails to pay any cash amount (a “Defaulted Amount”) payable on a Note on or before the due date therefor as provided in this Indenture, then, regardless of whether such failure constitutes

an Event of Default, (i) such Defaulted Amount will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder of such Note otherwise entitled to such payment; (ii) to the extent lawful, interest (“Default Interest”) will accrue on

such Defaulted Amount at a rate per annum equal to the rate per annum at which Stated Interest accrues, from, and including, such due date to, but excluding, the date of payment of such Defaulted Amount and Default Interest; (iii) such

Defaulted Amount and Default Interest will be paid as provided either in clause (i) or clause (ii) below, at the Issuer’s election.

(i) Payment of Default Amounts on a Special Payment Date. The Issuer will have the right to pay such Defaulted Amount

and Default Interest on a payment date selected by the Issuer to the Holder of such Note as of the Close of Business on a special record date selected by the Issuer; provided that such special record date must be no more than fifteen (15),

nor less than ten (10), calendar days before such payment date; and at least fifteen (15) calendar days before such special record date, the Issuer will send notice to the Trustee and the Holders that states such special record date, such

payment date and the amount of such Defaulted Amount and Default Interest to be paid on such payment date.

(ii) Payment

of Default Amount in Any Other Lawful Manner. If not paid in accordance with Section 2.05(B)(i), such Defaulted Amount and Default Interest will be paid by the Issuer in any other lawful manner.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.05(B)(i), a Default in the payment or delivery of any

Conversion Consideration when due will be cured upon the payment or delivery of the same (together, if applicable in the case of any cash Conversion Consideration, with Default Interest thereon) to the Person to whom such Conversion Consideration is

payable or deliverable (determined in accordance with Article 5).

(C) Delay of Payment When Payment Date is Not a Business

Day. If the due date for a payment on a Note as provided in this Indenture is not a Business Day, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or the Notes, such payment may be made on the immediately following Business Day

with the same force and effect as if such payment were made on such due date (and, for the avoidance of doubt, no interest will accrue on such payment as a result of the related delay). Solely for purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, a

day on which the applicable place of payment is authorized or required by law or executive order to close or be closed will be deemed not to be a “Business Day.”

- 53 -

(D) Special Provision for Global Notes. If the first date on which any Additional

Interest or Special Interest begins to accrue on a Global Note is on or after the fifth (5th) Business Day before a Regular Record Date and before the next Interest Payment Date, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or

the Notes, the amount thereof accruing in respect of the period from, and including, such first date to, but excluding, such Interest Payment Date will not be payable on such Interest Payment Date but will instead be deemed to accrue (without

duplication) entirely on such Interest Payment Date (and, for the avoidance of doubt, no interest will accrue as a result of the related delay).

Section 2.06. REGISTRAR, PAYING AGENT AND CONVERSION AGENT.

(A) Generally. The Issuer will maintain (i) an office or agency in the continental United States where Notes may be

presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the “Registrar”); (ii) an office or agency in the continental United States where Notes may be presented for payment (the “Paying Agent”); and

(iii) an office or agency in the continental United States where Notes may be presented for conversion (the “Conversion Agent”). If the Issuer fails to maintain a Registrar, Paying Agent or Conversion Agent, then the Trustee

will act as such. For the avoidance of doubt, the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Registrar, Paying Agent or Conversion Agent.

(B) Duties of the Registrar. The Registrar will keep a record (the “Register”) of the names and addresses of the

Holders, the Notes held by each Holder and the transfer, exchange, repurchase, Redemption and conversion of Notes. Absent manifest error, the entries in the Register will be conclusive and the Issuer and the Trustee may treat each Person whose name

is recorded as a Holder in the Register as a Holder for all purposes. The Register will be in written form or in any form capable of being converted into written form reasonably promptly.

(C) Co-Agents; Issuer’s Right to Appoint Successor Registrars, Paying Agents and Conversion

Agents. The Issuer may appoint one or more co-Registrars, co-Paying Agents and co-Conversion Agents, each of whom will be

deemed to be a Registrar, Paying Agent or Conversion Agent, as applicable, under this Indenture. Subject to Section 2.06(A), the Issuer may change any Registrar, Paying Agent or Conversion Agent (including appointing itself

or any of its Subsidiaries to act in such capacity) without notice to any Holder. The Issuer will notify the Trustee (and, upon request, any Holder) of the name and address of each Note Agent, if any, not a party to this Indenture and will enter

into an appropriate agency agreement with each such Note Agent, which agreement will implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such Note Agent.

(D) Initial Appointments. The Issuer appoints the Trustee as the initial Paying Agent, the initial Registrar and the initial Conversion

Agent.

Section 2.07. PAYING AGENT AND CONVERSION AGENT

TO HOLD PROPERTY IN TRUST.

The Issuer will require each

Paying Agent or Conversion Agent that is not the Trustee to agree in writing that such Note Agent will (A) hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money and other property held by such Note Agent for payment or delivery due

on the Notes; and (B) notify the Trustee of any default by the Issuer in making any such payment or delivery. The Issuer, at any time, may, and the Trustee, while any Default continues, may, require a Paying

- 54 -

Agent or Conversion Agent to pay or deliver, as applicable, all money and other property held by it to the Trustee, after which payment or delivery, as applicable, such Note Agent (if not the

Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries) will have no further liability for such money or property. If the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries acts as Paying Agent or Conversion Agent, then (i) it will segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for

the benefit of the Holders or the Trustee all money and other property held by it as Paying Agent or Conversion Agent and (ii) references in this Indenture or the Notes to the Paying Agent or Conversion Agent holding cash or other property, or

to the delivery of cash or other property to the Paying Agent or Conversion Agent, in each case for payment or delivery to any Holders or the Trustee or with respect to the Notes, will be deemed to refer to cash or other property so segregated and

held separately, or to the segregation and separate holding of such cash or other property, respectively. Upon the occurrence of any event pursuant to Section 7.01(A)(x) or Section 7.01(A)(xi) with

respect to the Issuer (or with respect to any Subsidiary of the Issuer acting as Paying Agent or Conversion Agent), the Trustee will serve as the Paying Agent or Conversion Agent, as applicable, for the Notes.

Section 2.08. HOLDER LISTS.

(A) If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer and any other obligor of the Notes will furnish to the Trustee, no later than seven

(7) Business Days before each Interest Payment Date, and at such other times as the Trustee may request, a list, in such form and as of such date or time as the Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the Holders.

(B) The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable, all information as to the names and addresses of the Holders

(i) contained in the most recent list furnished to it as provided in Section 2.08(A) and (ii) received by it in the capacity of Paying Agent (if so acting).

Section 2.09. LEGENDS.

(A) Global Note Legend. Each Global Note will bear the Global Note Legend (or any similar legend, not inconsistent with this Indenture,

required by the Depositary for such Global Note).

(B) Non-Affiliate Legend. Each Note will

bear the Non-Affiliate Legend.

(C) Restricted Note Legend. Subject to

Section 2.12,

(i) each Note that is a Transfer-Restricted Security will bear the Restricted Note

Legend; and

(ii) if a Note is issued in exchange for, in substitution of, or to effect a partial conversion of, another

Note (such other Note being referred to as the “old Note” for purposes of this Section 2.09(C)(ii)), including pursuant to Section 2.10(B), 2.10(C), 2.11 or 2.13,

then such Note will bear the Restricted Note Legend if such old Note bore the Restricted Note Legend at the time of such exchange or substitution, or on the related Conversion Date with respect to such conversion, as applicable; provided,

however, that such Note need not bear the Restricted Note Legend if such Note does not constitute a Transfer-Restricted Security immediately after such exchange or substitution, or as of such Conversion Date, as applicable.

- 55 -

(D) Other Legends. A Note may bear any other legend or text, not inconsistent with

this Indenture, as may be required by applicable law or by any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which such Note is traded or quoted.

(E) Acknowledgment and Agreement by the Holders. A Holder’s acceptance of any Note bearing any legend required by this

Section 2.09 will constitute such Holder’s acknowledgment of, and agreement to comply with, the restrictions set forth in such legend.

(F) Restricted Share Legend.

(i) Each Conversion Share will bear the Restricted Share Legend if the Note upon the conversion of which such Conversion Share

was issued was (or would have been had it not been converted) a Transfer-Restricted Security at the time such Conversion Share was issued; provided, however, that such Conversion Share need not bear the Restricted Share Legend if the

Issuer determines, in its reasonable discretion, that such Conversion Share need not bear the Restricted Share Legend.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.09(F), a Conversion Share need not

bear a Restricted Share Legend if such Conversion Share is issued in an uncertificated form that does not permit affixing legends thereto so long as the Issuer takes measures (including the assignment thereto of a “restricted” CUSIP

number) that it reasonably deems in good faith appropriate to enforce the transfer restrictions referred to in the Restricted Share Legend.

Section 2.10. TRANSFERS AND EXCHANGES; CERTAIN TRANSFER

RESTRICTIONS.

(A) Provisions Applicable to All Transfers and Exchanges.

(i) Subject to this Section 2.10, Physical Notes and beneficial interests in Global Notes may be

transferred or exchanged from time to time and the Registrar will record each such transfer or exchange in the Register.

(ii) Each Note issued upon transfer or exchange of any other Note (such other Note being referred to as the “old

Note” for purposes of this Section 2.10(A)(ii)) or portion thereof in accordance with this Indenture will be the valid obligation of the Issuer, evidencing the same indebtedness, and entitled to the same benefits

under this Indenture, as such old Note or portion thereof, as applicable.

(iii) The Issuer, the Trustee and the Note

Agents will not impose any service charge on any Holder for any transfer, exchange or conversion of Notes, but the Issuer, the Trustee, the Registrar and the Conversion Agent may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or

similar governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer, exchange or conversion of Notes, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 2.11, 2.17 or 8.05 not involving any transfer.

- 56 -

(iv) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or the

Notes, a Note may not be transferred or exchanged in part unless the portion to be so transferred or exchanged is in an Authorized Denomination.

(v) The Trustee will have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any transfer

restrictions imposed under this Indenture or applicable law with respect to any Security, other than to require the delivery of such certificates or other documentation or evidence as expressly required by this Indenture and to examine the same to

determine substantial compliance as to form with the requirements of this Indenture.

(vi) Each Note issued upon transfer

of, or in exchange for, another Note will bear each legend, if any, required by Section 2.09.

(vii) Upon satisfaction of the requirements of this Indenture to effect a transfer or exchange of any Note, the Issuer will

cause such transfer or exchange to be effected as soon as reasonably practicable but in no event later than the second (2nd) Business Day after the date of such satisfaction.

(viii) For the avoidance of doubt, and subject to the terms of this Indenture, as used in this

Section 2.10, an “exchange” of a Global Note or a Physical Note includes (x) an exchange effected for the sole purpose of removing any Restricted Note Legend affixed to such Global Note or Physical Note;

and (y) if such Global Note or Physical Note is identified by a “restricted” CUSIP number, an exchange effected for the sole purpose of causing such Global Note or Physical Note to be identified by an “unrestricted”

CUSIP number.

(B) Transfers and Exchanges of Global Notes.

(i) Subject to the immediately following sentence, no Global Note may be transferred or exchanged in whole except (x) by

the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary; (y) by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or to another nominee of the Depositary; or (z) by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such

successor Depositary. No Global Note (or any portion thereof) may be transferred to, or exchanged for, a Physical Note; provided, however, that a Global Note will be exchanged, pursuant to customary procedures, for one or more Physical

Notes if:

(1) (x) the Depositary notifies the Issuer or the Trustee that the Depositary is unwilling or unable to continue

as depositary for such Global Note or (y) the Depositary ceases to be a “clearing agency” registered under Section 17A of the Exchange Act and, in each case, the Issuer fails to appoint a successor Depositary within ninety

(90) days of such notice or cessation;

(2) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Issuer, the

Trustee or the Registrar has received a written request from the Depositary, or from a holder of a beneficial interest in such Global Note, to exchange such Global Note or beneficial interest, as applicable, for one or more Physical Notes; or

- 57 -

(3) the Issuer, in its sole discretion, permits the exchange of any

beneficial interest in such Global Note for one or more Physical Notes at the request of the owner of such beneficial interest.

(ii) Upon satisfaction of the requirements of this Indenture to effect a transfer or exchange of any Global Note (or any

portion thereof):

(1) the Trustee will reflect any resulting decrease of the principal amount of such Global Note by

notation on the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” forming part of such Global Note (and, if such notation results in such Global Note having a principal amount of zero, the Issuer may (but is not required to)

instruct the Trustee to cancel such Global Note pursuant to Section 2.15);

(2) if required to

effect such transfer or exchange, then the Trustee will reflect any resulting increase of the principal amount of any other Global Note by notation on the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” forming part of such other

Global Note;

(3) if required to effect such transfer or exchange, then the Issuer will issue, execute and deliver, and the

Trustee will authenticate, in each case in accordance with Section 2.02, a new Global Note bearing each legend, if any, required by Section 2.09; and

(4) if such Global Note (or such portion thereof), or any beneficial interest therein, is to be exchanged for one or more

Physical Notes, then the Issuer will issue, execute and deliver, and the Trustee will authenticate, in each case in accordance with Section 2.02, one or more Physical Notes that (x) are in Authorized Denominations and

have an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Global Note to be so exchanged; (y) are registered in such name(s) as the Depositary specifies (or as otherwise determined pursuant to customary procedures); and

(z) bear each legend, if any, required by Section 2.09.

(iii) Each transfer or exchange of

a beneficial interest in any Global Note will be made in accordance with the Depositary Procedures.

(C) Transfers and Exchanges of

Physical Notes.

(i) Subject to this Section 2.10, a Holder of a Physical Note may

(x) transfer such Physical Note (or any portion thereof in an Authorized Denomination) to one or more other Person(s); (y) exchange such Physical Note (or any portion thereof in an Authorized Denomination) for one or more other Physical Notes

in Authorized Denominations having an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Physical Note (or portion thereof) to be so exchanged; and (z) if then permitted by the Depositary Procedures, transfer such

Physical Note (or any portion thereof in an Authorized Denomination) in exchange for a beneficial interest in one or more Global Notes; provided, however, that, to effect any such transfer or exchange, such Holder must:

- 58 -

(1) surrender such Physical Note to be transferred or exchanged to the

office of the Registrar, together with any endorsements or transfer instruments reasonably required by the Issuer, the Trustee or the Registrar; and

(2) deliver such certificates, documentation or evidence as may be required pursuant to

Section 2.10(D).

(ii) Upon the satisfaction of the requirements of this Indenture to effect a

transfer or exchange of any Physical Note (such Physical Note being referred to as the “old Physical Note” for purposes of this Section 2.10(C)(ii)) of a Holder (or any portion of such old Physical Note in an

Authorized Denomination):

(1) such old Physical Note will be promptly cancelled pursuant to

Section 2.15;

(2) if such old Physical Note is to be so transferred or exchanged only in part,

then the Issuer will issue, execute and deliver, and the Trustee will authenticate, in each case in accordance with Section 2.02, one or more Physical Notes that (a) are in Authorized Denominations and have an

aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such old Physical Note not to be so transferred or exchanged; (b) are registered in the name of such Holder and (c) bear each legend, if any, required by

Section 2.09;

(3) in the case of a transfer:

(a) to the Depositary or a nominee thereof that will hold its interest in such old Physical Note (or such portion thereof) to

be so transferred in the form of one or more Global Notes, the Trustee will reflect an increase of the principal amount of one or more existing Global Notes by notation on the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note”

forming part of such Global Note(s), which increase(s) are in Authorized Denominations and aggregate to the principal amount to be so transferred, and which Global Note(s) bear each legend, if any, required by Section 2.09;

provided, however, that if such transfer cannot be so effected by notation on one or more existing Global Notes (whether because no Global Notes bearing each legend, if any, required by Section 2.09 then

exist, because any such increase will result in any Global Note having an aggregate principal amount exceeding the maximum aggregate principal amount permitted by the Depositary or otherwise), then the Issuer will issue, execute and deliver, and the

Trustee will authenticate, in each case in accordance with Section 2.02, one or more Global Notes that (x) are in Authorized Denominations and have an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount to be so

transferred; and (y) bear each legend, if any, required by Section 2.09; and

- 59 -

(b) to a transferee that will hold its interest in such old Physical Note

(or such portion thereof) to be so transferred in the form of one or more Physical Notes, the Issuer will issue, execute and deliver, and the Trustee will authenticate, in each case in accordance with Section 2.02 one or

more Physical Notes that (x) are in Authorized Denominations and have an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount to be so transferred; (y) are registered in the name of such transferee; and (z) bear each legend, if

any, required by Section 2.09; and

(4) in the case of an exchange, the Issuer will issue,

execute and deliver, and the Trustee will authenticate, in each case in accordance with Section 2.02, one or more Physical Notes that (a) are in Authorized Denominations and have an aggregate principal amount equal to

the principal amount to be so exchanged; (b) are registered in the name of the Person to whom such old Physical Note was registered; and (c) bear each legend, if any, required by Section 2.09.

(D) Requirement to Deliver Documentation and Other Evidence. If a Holder of any Note that is identified by a “restricted”

CUSIP number or that bears a Restricted Note Legend or is a Transfer-Restricted Security requests to:

(i) cause such Note

to be identified by an “unrestricted” CUSIP number;

(ii) remove such Restricted Note Legend; or

(iii) register the transfer of such Note to the name of another Person,

then the Issuer, the Trustee and the Registrar may refuse to effect such identification, removal or transfer, as applicable, unless there is delivered to the

Issuer, the Trustee and the Registrar such certificates or other documentation or evidence as the Issuer, the Trustee and the Registrar may reasonably require to determine that such identification, removal or transfer, as applicable, complies with

the Securities Act and other applicable securities laws.

(E) Transfers of Notes Subject to Redemption, Repurchase or Conversion.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or the Notes, the Issuer, the Trustee and the Registrar will not be required to register the transfer of or exchange any Note that (i) has been surrendered for conversion, except to the

extent that any portion of such Note is not subject to conversion; (ii) is subject to a Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice validly delivered, and not withdrawn, pursuant to Section 4.02(F), except to the extent that

any portion of such Note is not subject to such notice or the Issuer fails to pay the applicable Fundamental Change Repurchase Price when due; or (iii) has been selected for Redemption pursuant to a Redemption Notice, except to the extent that

any portion of such Note is not subject to Redemption or the Issuer fails to pay the applicable Redemption Price when due.

Section 2.11.

EXCHANGE AND CANCELLATION OF NOTES TO BE CONVERTED OR TO BE

REPURCHASED PURSUANT TO A REPURCHASE UPON FUNDAMENTAL CHANGE OR REDEMPTION.

(A) Partial Conversions of Physical Notes and Partial Repurchases of Physical Notes Pursuant to a Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change or

Redemption. If only a portion of a Physical Note of a Holder is to be converted pursuant to Article 5 or repurchased pursuant to a Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change or Redemption, then, as soon as reasonably practicable

- 60 -

after such Physical Note is surrendered for such conversion or repurchase, as applicable, the Issuer will cause such Physical Note to be exchanged, pursuant and subject to

Section 2.10(C), for one or more Physical Notes that are in Authorized Denominations and have an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Physical Note that is not to be so converted or repurchased,

as applicable, and deliver such Physical Note(s) to such Holder; and a Physical Note having a principal amount equal to the principal amount to be so converted or repurchased, as applicable, which Physical Note will be converted or repurchased, as

applicable, pursuant to the terms of this Indenture; provided, however, that the Physical Note referred to in this clause (ii) need not be issued at any time after which such principal amount subject to such

conversion or repurchase, as applicable, is deemed to cease to be outstanding pursuant to Section 2.18.

Section 2.12.

REMOVAL OF TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS.

Without limiting the generality of any

other provision of this Indenture (including Section 3.05), the Restricted Note Legend affixed to any Note will be deemed, pursuant to this Section 2.12 and the footnote to such Restricted Note

Legend, to be removed therefrom upon the Issuer’s delivery to the Trustee of notice, signed on behalf of the Issuer by one (1) of its Officers, to such effect (and, for the avoidance of doubt, such notice need not be accompanied by an

Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel in order to be effective to cause such Restricted Note Legend to be deemed to be removed from such Note). If such Note bears a “restricted” CUSIP or ISIN number at the time of such

delivery, then, upon such delivery, such Note will be deemed, pursuant to this Section 2.12 and the footnotes to the CUSIP and ISIN numbers set forth on the face of the certificate representing such Note, to thereafter bear

the “unrestricted” CUSIP and ISIN numbers identified in such footnotes; provided, however, that if such Note is a Global Note and the Depositary thereof requires a mandatory exchange or other procedure to cause such Global

Note to be identified by “unrestricted” CUSIP and ISIN numbers in the facilities of such Depositary, then (i) the Issuer will effect such exchange or procedure as soon as reasonably practicable; and (ii) for purposes of

Section 3.05, such Global Note will not be deemed to be identified by “unrestricted” CUSIP and ISIN numbers until such time as such exchange or procedure is effected.

Section 2.13. REPLACEMENT NOTES.

If a Holder of any Note claims that such Note has been mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, then the Issuer will issue, execute and

deliver, and the Trustee will authenticate, in each case in accordance with Section 2.02, a replacement Note upon surrender to the Trustee of such mutilated Note, or upon delivery to the Trustee of evidence of such loss,

destruction or wrongful taking reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee and the Issuer. In the case of a lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Note, the Issuer and the Trustee may require the Holder thereof to provide such security or indemnity that is

reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer and the Trustee to protect the Issuer and the Trustee from any loss that any of them may suffer if such Note is replaced.

Every replacement Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.13 will be an additional obligation of the Issuer and will

be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and ratably with all other Notes issued under this Indenture.

- 61 -

Section 2.14. REGISTERED HOLDERS; CERTAIN

RIGHTS WITH RESPECT TO GLOBAL NOTES.

Except

to the extent rights hereunder are expressly granted to owners of beneficial interests of Notes, only the Holder of a Note will have rights under this Indenture as the owner of such Note. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Depositary

Participants will have no rights as such under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the Depositary or its nominee, or by the Trustee as its custodian, and the Issuer, the Trustee and the Note Agents, and their

respective agents, may treat the Depositary as the absolute owner of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever; provided, however, that (A) the Holder of any Global Note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person,

including Depositary Participants and Persons that hold interests in Notes through Depositary Participants, to take any action that such Holder is entitled to take with respect to such Global Note under this Indenture or the Notes; and (B) the

Issuer and the Trustee, and their respective agents, may give effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary.

Section 2.15. CANCELLATION.

The Issuer may at any time deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar, the Paying Agent and the Conversion Agent will

forward to the Trustee each Note duly surrendered to them for transfer, exchange, payment or conversion. The Trustee will promptly cancel all Notes so surrendered to it in accordance with its customary procedures. Without limiting the generality of

Section 2.03(B), the Issuer may not originally issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been cancelled upon transfer, exchange, payment or conversion.

Section 2.16. NOTES HELD BY THE ISSUER OR ITS

AFFILIATES.

In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any

direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Issuer and its Affiliates shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding; except that for the purpose of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such

direction, waiver or consent, only Notes which the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, no Person shall be deemed to be an Affiliate, or to be under common control

of any other Person with the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, solely as a result of such Person and/or such other Person being a “beneficial owner” of more than 10% of the voting power Issuer’s outstanding Common Stock, unless

such Person and/or such other Person (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Issuer) has the power, directly or indirectly, to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of the Issuer, whether through the

ownership of Common Stock of the Issuer, by contract, or otherwise. Subject to the foregoing, only Notes outstanding at the time shall be considered in any such determination.

Section 2.17. TEMPORARY NOTES.

Until definitive Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuer may issue, execute and deliver, and the Trustee will authenticate, in each case in

accordance with Section 2.02, temporary Notes. Temporary Notes will be substantially in the form of definitive Notes but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Notes. The Issuer will

promptly prepare, issue, execute and deliver, and the Trustee will authenticate, in each case in accordance with Section 2.02, definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes. Until so exchanged, each temporary Note will in all

respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Notes.

- 62 -

Section 2.18. OUTSTANDING NOTES.

(A) Generally. The Notes that are outstanding at any time will be deemed to be those Notes that, at such time, have been duly executed

and authenticated, excluding those Notes (or portions thereof) that have theretofore been (i) cancelled by the Trustee or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation in accordance with Section 2.15; (ii) assigned a

principal amount of zero by notation on the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” forming part of any a Global Note representing such Note; (iii) paid in full (including upon conversion) in accordance with this

Indenture; or (iv) deemed to cease to be outstanding to the extent provided in, and subject to, clause (B), (C) or (D) of this Section 2.18. Subject to

Section 2.16, the Notes do not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds such Notes.

(B) Replaced Notes. If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.13, then such Note will cease to be

outstanding at the time of its replacement, unless the Trustee and the Issuer receive proof reasonably satisfactory to them that such Note is held by a “protected purchaser” under applicable law.

(C) Maturing Notes and Notes Called for Redemption or Subject to Repurchase. If, on a Redemption Date, a Fundamental Change Repurchase

Date or the Maturity Date, the Paying Agent holds money sufficient to pay the aggregate Redemption Price, Fundamental Change Repurchase Price or principal amount, respectively, together, in each case, with the aggregate interest, in each case due on

such date, then (unless there occurs a Default in the payment of any such amount) (i) the Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed or repurchased, or that mature, on such date will be deemed, as of such date, to cease to be outstanding,

except to the extent provided in Section 4.02(D), 4.03(F) or 5.02(D); and (ii) the rights of the Holders of such Notes (or such portions thereof), as such, will terminate with respect to such Notes (or

such portions thereof), other than the right to receive the Redemption Price, Fundamental Change Repurchase Price or principal amount, as applicable, of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, such Notes (or such portions thereof), in each case as

(D) Notes to Be Converted. At the Close of Business on the Conversion Date for any Note (or any

portion thereof) to be converted, such Note (or such portion) will (unless there occurs a Default in the delivery of the Conversion Consideration or interest due, pursuant to Section 5.03(B) or

Section 5.02(D), upon such conversion) be deemed to cease to be outstanding, except to the extent provided in Section 5.02(D) or Section 5.08.

Section 2.19. REPURCHASES BY THE ISSUER.

Without limiting the generality of Section 2.15, the Issuer may, from time to time, repurchase Notes in open

market purchases or in negotiated transactions without delivering prior notice to Holders. The Issuer may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, and directly or indirectly (regardless of whether such Notes are surrendered to the Issuer),

repurchase Notes in the open market or otherwise, whether by the Issuer or the Issuer’s Subsidiaries or through a private or public tender or exchange offer or through counterparties pursuant to private agreements, including cash-settled swaps

or other derivatives, in each case, without prior notice to, or consent of, the Holders. The Issuer will promptly surrender to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes that the Issuer may repurchase. Any Notes that the Issuer may repurchase will be

considered “outstanding” under this Indenture (except as provided in Section 2.16) unless and until such time the Issuer causes them to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and, upon receipt of a

written order from the Issuer, the Trustee will cancel all Notes so surrendered.

Section 2.20. CUSIP AND ISIN

NUMBERS.

Subject to Section 2.12, the Issuer may use one or more CUSIP or ISIN numbers to

identify any of the Notes, and, if so, the Issuer and the Trustee will use such CUSIP or ISIN number(s) in notices to Holders; provided, however, that (i) the Trustee makes no representation as to the correctness or accuracy of

any such CUSIP or ISIN number; and (ii) the effectiveness of any such notice will not be affected by any defect in, or omission of, any such CUSIP or ISIN number. The Issuer will promptly notify the Trustee, in writing, of any change in the

CUSIP or ISIN number(s) identifying any Notes.

Article 3. COVENANTS

Section 3.01. [RESERVED].

Section 3.02. PAYMENT ON NOTES.

(A) Generally. The Issuer will pay or cause to be paid in cash all the principal of, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price and

Redemption Price for, interest on, and other amounts due with respect to, the Notes on the dates and in the manner set forth in this Indenture and in the Notes.

(B) Deposit of Funds. Before 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on each Redemption Date, Fundamental Change Repurchase Date or Interest

Section 3.03. EXCHANGE ACT REPORTS.

(A) Generally. The Issuer shall file with the Trustee, within 15 days after the same are required to be filed with the SEC (giving

effect to any grace period provided by Rule 12b-25 under the Exchange Act), copies of any documents or reports that the Issuer is required to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the

Exchange Act (excluding any such information, documents or reports, or portions thereof, subject to, or with respect to which the Issuer is actively seeking, confidential treatment and any correspondence with the SEC). Any such document or report

that the Issuer files with the SEC via the SEC’s EDGAR system shall be deemed to be filed with the Trustee for purposes of this Section 3.03(A) at the time such documents are filed via the EDGAR system.

The “grace periods” referred to in the preceding paragraph with respect to any report will include the maximum period afforded by Rule 12b-25 (or any successor rule thereto) under the Exchange Act regardless of whether the Issuer files, or indicates in the related Form 12b-25 (or any successor form thereto)

that Issuer expects to or will file, such report before the expiration of such maximum period.

(B) Trustee’s Disclaimer. The

Trustee shall have no duty to review or analyze reports delivered to it. Delivery of the reports and documents described in Section 3.03(A) to the Trustee is for informational purposes only, and the Trustee’s receipt

of such shall not constitute actual or constructive notice or knowledge of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Issuer’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which

the Trustee is entitled to conclusively rely on an Officer’s Certificate).

Section 3.04. RULE 144A

INFORMATION.

At any time the Issuer is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Issuer shall,

so long as any of the Notes or any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof shall, at such time, constitute “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act, promptly provide to the

Trustee and, upon written request, any Holder, beneficial owner or prospective purchaser of such Notes or any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such Notes, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under

the Securities Act to facilitate the resale of such Notes or shares of Common Stock pursuant to Rule 144A.

Section 3.05.

ADDITIONAL INTEREST.

(A) Accrual of Additional Interest.

(i) If, at any time during the six (6) month period beginning on, and including, the date that is six (6) months

after the Last Original Issue Date of any Note,

(1) the Issuer fails to timely file any report (other than Form 8-K reports) that the Issuer is required to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (after giving effect to all applicable grace periods thereunder); or

(2) such Note is not otherwise Freely Tradable,

- 65 -

then Additional Interest will accrue on such Note for each day during such period on which

such failure is continuing or such Note is not Freely Tradable. The “grace periods” referred to in the preceding sentence with respect to any report will include the maximum period afforded by Rule

12b-25 (or any successor rule thereto) under the Exchange Act regardless of whether the Issuer files, or indicates in the related Form 12b-25 (or any successor form

thereto) that Issuer expects to or will file, such report before the expiration of such maximum period.

(ii) In addition,

Additional Interest will accrue on a Note on each day on which such Note is not Freely Tradable on or after the De-Legending Deadline Date for such Note.

(B) Amount and Payment of Additional Interest. Subject to Section 3.05(C), any Additional Interest that

accrues on a Note pursuant to Section 3.05(A) will be payable on the same dates and in the same manner as the Stated Interest on such Note and will accrue at a rate per annum equal to one quarter of one percent (0.25%) of

the principal amount thereof for the first ninety (90) days on which Additional Interest accrues and, thereafter, at a rate per annum equal to one half of one percent (0.50%) of the principal amount thereof; provided, however, that in no event

will Additional Interest (excluding any interest that accrues on any Deferred Additional Interest pursuant to Section 3.05(C)), together with any Special Interest, accrue on any day on a Note at a combined rate per annum

that exceeds one half of one percent (0.50%). For the avoidance of doubt, any Additional Interest that accrues on a Note will be in addition to the Stated Interest that accrues on such Note and, subject to the proviso of the immediately preceding

sentence, in addition to any Special Interest that accrues on such Note.

(C) Deferral of Additional Interest.

(i) Generally. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.05, but subject to

Section 3.05(C)(iii), Additional Interest that accrues on any Note for any period on or after the De-Legending Deadline Date of such Note will not be payable on any Interest Payment Date occurring on or after such

De-Legending Deadline Date unless (1) a Holder (or an owner of a beneficial interest in a Global Note) has delivered to the Issuer and the Trustee, no later than the fifth (5th) Business Day before the Regular Record Date immediately before

such Interest Payment Date, a written notice (a “Deferred Additional Interest Demand Request”) demanding payment of Additional Interest; or (2) the Issuer , in its sole and absolute discretion, elects, by sending notice of

such election (a “Notice of Election to Pay Deferred Additional Interest”) to Holders before such Regular Record Date, to pay such Additional Interest on such Interest Payment Date (any accrued and unpaid Additional Interest that,

in accordance with this sentence, is not paid on such Interest Payment Date, “Deferred Additional Interest”). Interest will accrue on such Deferred Additional Interest from, and including, such Interest Payment Date at a rate per

annum equal to the rate per annum at which Stated Interest accrues on the Notes to, but excluding, the date on which such Deferred Additional Interest, together with accrued interest thereon, is paid. Once any accrued and unpaid Additional Interest

becomes payable on an Interest Payment Date (whether as a result of the delivery of a written notice pursuant to clause (1) above or, if earlier, the Issuer’s election to pay the same pursuant to clause (2) above), Additional

Interest will thereafter not be subject to deferral pursuant to this Section 3.05(C).

- 66 -

(ii) Interpretive Provisions. Each reference in this Indenture or the

Notes to any accrued interest (including in the definitions of the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price for any Note) or to any accrued Additional Interest includes, to the extent applicable, and without duplication, any

Deferred Additional Interest, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon. For the avoidance of doubt, the failure to pay any accrued and unpaid Additional Interest on an Interest Payment Date will not constitute a Default or an Event of

Default under this Indenture or the Notes if such payment is deferred in accordance with Section 3.05(C)(i). Otherwise, such a failure to pay will be subject to Section 7.01(A)(ii).

(iii) Payment or Extinguishment Upon Maturity. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or the Notes,

if (1) any unpaid Deferred Additional Interest exists on any Notes as of the Close of Business on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date; (2) no Holder (or owner of a beneficial interest in a Global Note) has

delivered a Deferred Additional Interest Demand Request in the manner set forth in Section 3.05(C)(i) on or before the fifth (5th) Business Day before such Regular Record Date; and (3) the Issuer has not sent a Notice

of Election to Pay Deferred Additional Interest in the manner set forth in Section 3.05(C)(i) before such Regular Record Date, then Deferred Additional Interest on each Note then outstanding will cease to accrue, and all

Deferred Additional Interest, together with interest thereon, on such Note will be deemed to be extinguished on the following date: (a) if such Note is to be Converted, the Conversion Date for such Conversion (it being understood, for the

avoidance of doubt, that the Conversion Consideration therefor need not include, and the amount referred to in clause (i) of Section 5.02(D) need not include, the payment of any such Deferred Additional Interest or any

interest thereon); and (b) in all other cases, the later of (x) the Maturity Date; and (y) the first date on which the Issuer has repaid the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest (other than such Deferred Additional Interest

and any interest thereon) on, such Note in full.

(D) Notice of Accrual of Additional Interest; Trustee’s Disclaimer. The

Issuer will send notice to the Holder of each Note, and to the Trustee, of the commencement and termination of any period in which Additional Interest accrues on such Note, except that no such notice is required in respect of any Additional Interest

that is deferred in accordance with Section 3.05(C). In addition, if Additional Interest accrues on any Note, then, no later than five (5) Business Days before each date on which such Additional Interest is to be paid,

the Issuer will deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee and the Paying Agent stating (i) that the Issuer is obligated to pay Additional Interest on such Note on such date of payment; and (ii) the amount of such Additional

Interest that is payable on such date of payment. The Trustee (x) will have no duty to determine whether any Additional Interest is payable (or whether the same is deferred or is accruing interest) or the amount thereof; and (y) may assume

(without inquiry) that no Additional Interest is payable or has been deferred unless and until the Issuer delivers such Officer’s Certificate.

(E) Exclusive Remedy. The accrual of Additional Interest will be the exclusive remedy available to Holders for the failure of their

Notes to become Freely Tradable.

Section 3.06. [RESERVED].

Section 3.07. COMPLIANCE AND DEFAULT CERTIFICATES.

(A) Annual Compliance Certificate. Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of the fiscal year of 2026 and each fiscal

year of the Issuer thereafter, the Issuer will deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee stating (i) that the signatory thereto has supervised a review of the activities of the Note Parties during such fiscal year with a view

towards determining whether any Default or Event of Default has occurred and (ii) whether, to such signatory’s knowledge, a Default or Event of Default has occurred or is continuing (and, if so, describing all such Defaults or Events of

Default and what action any Note Party is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto).

(B) Default Certificate. If a Default

or Event of Default occurs, then the Issuer will, within thirty (30) days after its occurrence, deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee describing the same and what action the Issuer or any Note Party is taking or proposes to take

with respect thereto; provided, however, that such notice will not be required if such Default or Event of Default has been cured or waived before the date the Issuer is required to deliver such notice.

Section 3.08. STAY, EXTENSION AND USURY LAWS.

To the extent that it may lawfully do so, each of the Note Parties: (A) agrees that it will not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any

manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law (wherever or whenever enacted or in force) that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and (B) expressly waives all benefits

or advantages of any such law and agrees that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power granted to the Trustee by this Indenture, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though

no such law has been enacted.

Section 3.09. CORPORATE EXISTENCE.

Subject to Article 6, each Note Party will cause to preserve and keep in full force and effect: (A) its corporate existence in

accordance with the organizational or constitutional documents of such Note Party; and (B) the material rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of each Note Party and their respective Subsidiaries; provided,

however, that each Note Party (other than the Issuer except in accordance with Section 6.01) need not preserve or keep in full force and effect any such existence, right, license or franchise if the Board of

Directors determines that (i) the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Note Parties, taken as a whole; and (ii) the loss thereof is not, individually or in the aggregate, materially adverse to

the Holders.

Section 3.10. [RESERVED].

Section 3.11. FURTHER INSTRUMENTS AND ACTS.

At the Trustee’s request, each Note Party will execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably

necessary or proper to more effectively carry out the purposes of this Indenture.

- 68 -

Section 3.12. INDEBTEDNESS.

(A) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of the Subsidiaries to, incur, create, assume or permit to exist any Indebtedness (including

Acquired Indebtedness) and the Issuer will not issue any Disqualified Stock and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to issue any shares of preferred stock, in each case on or after the Issue Date; provided, however, the Issuer may incur

Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) or issue Disqualified Stock and any Subsidiary Guarantor may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) or issue preferred stock, in each case, if the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio, tested

on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the incurrence of such additional Indebtedness or issuance of such Disqualified Stock or preferred stock, would have been no greater than (i) 4.00:1.00 if such incurrence or issuance occurs during the

June 30, 2029 and (iv) 3.25:1.00 thereafter.

avoidance of doubt, paid-in-kind interest payable on such Indebtedness) on the Issue Date and set forth on Schedule 3.12(B) on the Issue Date and any Permitted

that (a) any such Indebtedness of a Subsidiary that is not a Note Party owing to a Note Party is permitted by Section 3.15 and (b) any such Indebtedness of a Note Party owing to a Subsidiary that is not a Note

Party is permitted by Section 3.15 and is subordinated to the Note Obligations pursuant to the terms of the Note Documents;

thereof that is not the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor, and (B) Indebtedness secured by a Lien incurred in reliance on this Section 3.12(B)(xxx) shall not be secured by any assets or property that are not Collateral.

Except as specifically set forth in herein, no Indebtedness that is incurred pursuant to any clause of this

Section 3.12(B) may be used to Refinance any Indebtedness that was incurred pursuant to, or outstanding under, any other clause of this Section 3.12(B) (other than

Section 3.12(B)(i) and Section 3.12(B)(xxx)); provided that (a) Indebtedness incurred pursuant to Section 3.12(B)(x) or (xi) may be used to Refinance

(C) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 3.12, if the

Issue Date, on the Issue Date and, in the case of such Indebtedness incurred or assumed (in respect of term Indebtedness) or committed (in respect of revolving Indebtedness) after the Issue Date, on the date that such Indebtedness was incurred or

assumed (in respect of term Indebtedness) or committed (in respect of revolving Indebtedness); provided that if such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness or Specified Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness, as applicable, is incurred, assumed or committed

to Refinance Indebtedness denominated in a currency other than Dollars (or in a different currency from the Indebtedness being Refinanced), and such Refinancing would cause the applicable Dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated

at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such Refinancing, such Dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness or Specified

Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness, as applicable, does not exceed the outstanding principal amount of such Indebtedness being Refinanced.

- 75 -

(E) Further, for purposes of determining compliance with this

Section 3.12, (i) Indebtedness need not be permitted solely by reference to one category of permitted Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) described in Sections 3.12(A) and 3.12(B)(i) through

(xxx) but may be permitted in part under any combination thereof, (B) in the event that an item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of one or more of the categories of permitted Indebtedness (or any portion

thereof) described in Sections 3.12(A) and Section 3.12(B)(i) through (xxx), the Issuer may, in its sole discretion, classify or reclassify, or later divide, classify or reclassify (as if incurred at such

later time), such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this Section 3.12 and at the time of incurrence, assumption, classification or reclassification will be entitled to only

include the amount and type of such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) in any of the above clauses (or any portion thereof) and such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) shall be treated as having been incurred, assumed or

existing pursuant to only such clause or clauses (or any portion thereof). Notwithstanding the foregoing, (v) all Indebtedness outstanding under the First Lien Notes Indenture and in connection with any Designated Sale and Lease-Back

Transaction shall at all times be deemed to have been incurred in reliance on Section 3.12(B)(xviii), (w) all Indebtedness outstanding under the Second Lien Renesas Notes Indenture shall at all times be deemed to have been

incurred in reliance on Section 3.12(B)(xix)(a), (x) all Indebtedness outstanding under the Second Lien Takeback Notes Indenture shall at all times be deemed to have been incurred in reliance on

Section 3.12(B)(xix)(b), (y) all Indebtedness outstanding under the Second Lien Non-Renesas Notes Indenture shall at all times be deemed to have been incurred in reliance on

Section 3.12(B)(xix)(c) and (z) all Indebtedness outstanding under this Indenture shall at all times be deemed to have been incurred in reliance on Section 3.12(B)(ii) and, in each case, may

not be so reclassified or divided.

(F) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 3.12, from and after the

date the Indebtedness under the (i) the First Lien Notes Indenture, (ii) the Second Lien Renesas Notes Indenture, (iii) the Second Lien Takeback Notes Indenture and (iv) the Second Lien

Non-Renesas Notes Indenture has (x) been converted, prepaid, repaid, redeemed or otherwise repurchased, in each case, in full and in a manner not prohibited by the terms of this Indenture, as the case may

be or (y) Refinanced pursuant to a permitted refinancing pursuant to the terms thereof, in each case, with a lower payment and Lien priority than the Notes Obligations (any such date, the “Existing Indebtedness Fallaway

Date”), then, without further action by either the Issuer or any Holder,

(i) the qualification described in

Section 3.12(B)(x) with respect to the minimum Gross Cash Proceeds of $300,000,000 from the issuance or sale of the Issuer’s Qualified Equity Interests shall cease to apply;

(ii) the limitation described in Section 3.12(B)(xi)(b)(I) with respect to the maximum interest rate shall cease to

apply;

(iii) the limitation described in sub-clause (D) of

Section 3.12(B)(xviii) with respect to the maximum interest rate shall cease to apply; and

- 76 -

(iv) the limitation described in the first proviso of

Section 3.12(B)(xi) with respect to the exclusion of proceeds from the conversion of the Notes, the Second Lien Non-Renesas Notes and/or the Second Lien Renesas Notes and any

refinancing thereof shall cease to apply with respect to any conversion thereof after the Issue Date.

property or assets (including stock or other securities of any person) of the Issuer or any Subsidiary at the time owned by it or on any income or revenues or rights in respect of any thereof on or after the Issue Date, except Permitted Liens.

(B) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 3.13, (i) a Lien securing an item of Indebtedness need

not be permitted solely by reference to one category of Permitted Liens (or any portion thereof) described in clauses (A) through (OO) of the definition of “Permitted Liens” but may be permitted in part under any

combination thereof and (ii) in the event that a Lien securing an item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of one or more of the categories of Permitted Liens (or any portion thereof) described in clauses

(A) through (OO) of the definition of “Permitted Liens”, the Issuer may, in its sole discretion, classify or reclassify, or later divide, classify or reclassify (as if incurred at such later time), such Lien securing such

item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this Section 3.13 and at the time of incurrence, classification or reclassification will be entitled to only include the amount and type of such

Lien or such item of Indebtedness secured by such Lien (or any portion thereof) in any of the above clauses (or any portion thereof) and such Lien securing such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) will be treated as being incurred or

existing pursuant to only such clause or clauses (or any portion thereof) without giving pro forma effect to such item (or any portion thereof) when calculating the amount of Liens or Indebtedness that may be incurred, classified or reclassified

pursuant to any other clause (or any portion thereof) at such time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) Liens securing any Indebtedness incurred under Section 3.12(B)(xviii) shall only be permitted in reliance on

clause (W) of the definition of “Permitted Liens”, (ii) Liens securing any Indebtedness incurred under Section 3.12(B)(xix) shall only be permitted in reliance on clause (X) of the

definition of “Permitted Liens” and (iii) Liens securing any Indebtedness incurred under Section 3.12(B)(xxx) shall only be permitted in reliance on clause (OO) of the definition of “Permitted

Liens”.

The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of the Subsidiaries to enter into any arrangement, directly or indirectly, with any person whereby

it shall sell or transfer any property, real or personal, used or useful in its business, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, and thereafter, as part of such transaction, rent or lease such property or other property that it intends to use for

substantially the same purpose or purposes as the property being sold or transferred (a “Sale and Lease-Back Transaction”), other than (i) any such transaction with respect to equipment or other personal property to the

extent that any Indebtedness arising from such Sale and Lease-Back Transaction is permitted under Section 3.12(B)(ix), and (ii) a Designated Sale and Lease-Back Transaction.

payment on or with respect to, or purchase, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value any Junior Financing (excluding any intercompany Indebtedness between or among the Issuer and any of its Subsidiary Guarantors), except (a) a

payment of principal upon the scheduled maturity of such Junior Financing or (b) the purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition of Indebtedness purchased in anticipation of satisfying a sinking fund obligation, principal

installment or scheduled maturity, in each case due within one year of the date of such purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition; or

(iv) make any Restricted Investment,

(all such payments and other actions set forth in these clauses (i) through (iv) above being collectively referred to as

“Restricted Payments”).

(B) The provisions of Section 3.15(A) will not prohibit:

Section 3.16. ASSET DISPOSITIONS.

(A) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Disposition unless:

(i) the Issuer or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at least equal to the fair market value (as

reasonably determined in good faith by the Issuer) of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise Disposed of; and

(ii) at least 75% of the proceeds from such Asset Disposition consists of cash or Cash Equivalents; provided that for

purposes of this Section 3.16(A)(ii) “cash” shall include:

(1) any liabilities (as

shown on the Issuer’s or such Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet or if incurred or accrued subsequent to the date of such balance sheet, such liabilities that would have been reflected on the Issuer’s or such Subsidiary’s

consolidated balance sheet if such incurrence or accrual had taken place on or prior to the date of such balance sheet, as determined in good faith by the Issuer) of the Issuer or such Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities

that are by their terms subordinated to the Note Obligations) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to a customary novation or assumption agreement that validly releases the Issuer or such Subsidiary from further liability

to all applicable creditors; and

(2) any securities, notes or other obligations received by the Issuer or such Subsidiary

from such transferee that are converted, in each case, within 180 days after the closing of such Asset Disposition by the Issuer or such Subsidiary into cash or Cash Equivalents (to the extent of the cash or Cash Equivalents received in that

conversion).

(B) Unless and solely in the event there has been a Discharge of First-Priority Obligations (as defined in the First-Lien/1.5-Lien Intercreditor Agreement), within 365 days (or such shorter period as the Issuer in its sole election may determine) after the receipt of Net Proceeds from an Asset Disposition (each, an

“Asset Sale Prepayment Date”), the Issuer may elect to apply or cause to be applied an amount equal to the Net Proceeds from such Asset Disposition:

(i) upon a Disposition of assets that constitutes Collateral, to repay the

1.5-Priority Obligations (and if the Indebtedness repaid is revolving credit indebtedness, to correspondingly permanently reduce revolving commitments with respect thereto); provided that in the case of

any repayment pursuant to this Section 3.16(B)(i), the Issuer shall make an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for an Asset Disposition Offer) to all holders of such 1.5-Priority Obligations to purchase (or repay) a pro rata (together with any 1.5-Priority Obligations repaid pursuant to this

Section 3.16(B)(i)) principal amount of the Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but not including the date of repayment;

- 81 -

(ii) [Reserved];

(iii) upon the Disposition of assets that do not constitute Collateral, to repurchase, prepay, redeem or repay Indebtedness of

a Subsidiary that is not a Note Party, or Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor that is secured by a Lien on such assets; or

(iv) upon a Disposition of assets that does not constitute Collateral, to either (a) make an investment in, or acquire

assets related to or otherwise useful in the business of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries existing on the Issue Date; and/or (b) make Capital Expenditures in or that are used or useful in the business or to make Capital Expenditures for

maintenance, repair or improvement of existing assets in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.

(C) Any Net Proceeds from an Asset

Disposition not applied or invested as provided in Section 3.16(B) within the applicable Asset Sale Prepayment Date will be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds” on the day immediately after the

applicable Asset Sale Prepayment Date; provided that in the case of Section 3.16(B)(iv), a binding commitment letter with a third party shall be treated as a permitted application of the Net Proceeds from the date such

commitment letter is executed so long as the Issuer or a Subsidiary enters into such commitment letter with the good faith expectation that such Net Proceeds will be applied to satisfy such commitment within 180 days of the execution of such

commitment letter; provided, further, that if such commitment letter is later terminated or cancelled prior to the application of such Net Proceeds or such Net Proceeds are not so applied within such 180-day

period, then such Net Proceeds shall constitute Excess Proceeds.

(D) In no event later than 20 Business Days after any date that the

aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $10,000,000 (or such lesser amount as the Issuer shall determine) (an “Asset Disposition Offer Trigger Date”), to the extent permitted by the First Lien Notes Indenture, the Issuer shall

commence an offer to all Holders (an “Asset Disposition Offer”) to purchase at a price in cash equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase and to all holders of other 1.5-Priority Obligations containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Indenture with respect to asset dispositions, in each case, equal to the Excess Proceeds. Upon completion of each Asset Disposition

Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero. To the extent that any Excess Proceeds remain after completion of an Asset Disposition Offer, the Issuer may use the remaining amount for general corporate purposes and such amount shall no

longer constitute Excess Proceeds.

(E) In connection with an Asset Disposition Offer, the Issuer shall deliver to the Holders, in

accordance with the Depositary Procedures (with a copy to the Trustee), a notice stating: (i) that an Asset Disposition Offer Trigger Date has occurred and that the Issuer is offering to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes that may

be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds (and identifying other Indebtedness, if any, that is entitled to participate pro rata in the

- 82 -

Asset Disposition Offer), at an offer price in cash equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase (the “Asset Disposition Offer

Purchase Date”), which shall be a Business Day, specified in such notice, that is not earlier than 30 days or later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered, (ii) the amount of accrued and unpaid interest as of the Asset

Disposition Offer Purchase Date, (iii) that any Note not tendered will continue to accrue interest, (iv) that, unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the purchase price for the Notes payable pursuant to the Asset Disposition Offer,

any Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Asset Disposition Offer shall cease to accrue interest after the Asset Disposition Offer Purchase Date, (v) the procedures to be followed by a Holders in order to accept an Asset Disposition Offer

or to withdraw such acceptance, and (vi) such other information as may be required by the Indenture and applicable laws and regulations.

(F) On the Asset Disposition Offer Purchase Date, the Issuer will (i) accept for payment the maximum principal amount of Notes or

portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Asset Disposition Offer that can be purchased out of Excess Proceeds from such Asset Disposition, (ii) deposit with the paying agent the aggregate purchase price of all Notes or portions thereof

accepted for payment and any accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes as of the Asset Disposition Offer Purchase Date, and (iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee all Notes tendered pursuant to the Asset Disposition Offer. If

less than all Notes tendered pursuant to the Asset Disposition Offer are accepted for payment by the Issuer for any reason consistent with the Indenture, selection of the Notes to be purchased by the Issuer shall be in compliance with the

requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed or, if the Notes are not so listed, in accordance with the Depositary Procedures and, if no such Depositary Procedures apply, pro rata, by lot or by

such other method the Issuer considers fair and appropriate; provided that Notes accepted for payment in part shall only be purchased in Authorized Denominations. The paying agent shall promptly deliver to each Holder of Notes or portions

thereof accepted for payment an amount equal to the purchase price for such Notes plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and deliver to such Holder of Notes accepted for payment in part a new Note

equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes, and any Note not accepted for payment in whole or in part shall be promptly returned to the Holder of such Note. On and after an Asset Disposition Offer Purchase Date, interest will

cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof accepted for payment, unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the purchase price therefor. The Issuer will announce the results of the Asset Disposition Offer to Holders of the Notes on or as

soon as practicable after the Asset Disposition Offer Purchase Date.

Section 4.02. RIGHT OF HOLDERS TO REQUIRE THE

ISSUER TO REPURCHASE NOTES UPON A FUNDAMENTAL CHANGE.

(A) Right of Holders to Require the Issuer to Repurchase Notes Upon a Fundamental Change. Subject to the other terms of this

Section 4.02, if a Fundamental Change occurs, then each Holder will have the right (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase Right”) to require the Issuer to repurchase such Holder’s Notes (or any portion

thereof in an Authorized Denomination) on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date for such Fundamental Change for a cash purchase price equal to the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price.

(B) Repurchase Prohibited in Certain Circumstances. If the principal amount of the Notes has been accelerated and such acceleration has

not been rescinded on or before the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date for a Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change (including as a result of the payment of the related Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, and any related interest pursuant to the

proviso to Section 4.02(D), on such Fundamental Change Repurchase Date), then (i) the Issuer may not repurchase any Notes pursuant to this Section 4.02; and (ii) the Issuer will cause any

Notes theretofore surrendered for such Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change to be returned to the Holders thereof (or, if applicable with respect to Global Notes, cancel any instructions for book-entry transfer to the Issuer, the Trustee or the Paying

Agent of the applicable beneficial interest in such Notes in accordance with the Depositary Procedures).

(C) Fundamental Change

Repurchase Date. The Fundamental Change Repurchase Date for any Fundamental Change will be a Business Day of the Issuer’s choosing that is no more than thirty-five (35) and not less than twenty (20) Business Days after the date

(D) Fundamental Change Repurchase Price. The Fundamental Change Repurchase Price for

any Note to be repurchased upon a Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change following a Fundamental Change is an amount in cash equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the principal amount of such Note plus accrued and unpaid interest on such Note to, but

excluding, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date for such Fundamental Change; provided, however, that if such Fundamental Change Repurchase Date is after a Regular Record Date and on or before the next Interest Payment Date, then

(i) the Holder of such Note at the Close of Business on such Regular Record Date will be entitled, notwithstanding such Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change, to receive, on or, at the Issuer’s election, before such Interest Payment Date,

the unpaid interest that would have accrued on such Note to, but excluding, such Interest Payment Date (assuming, solely for these purposes, that such Note remained outstanding through such Interest Payment Date, if such Fundamental Change

Repurchase Date is before such Interest Payment Date); and (ii) the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price will not include accrued and unpaid interest on such Note to, but excluding, such Fundamental Change Repurchase Date. For the avoidance of

doubt, if an Interest Payment Date is not a Business Day within the meaning of Section 2.05(C) and such Fundamental Change Repurchase Date occurs on the Business Day immediately after such Interest Payment Date, then

(x) accrued and unpaid interest on Notes to, but excluding, such Interest Payment Date will be paid, in accordance with Section 2.05(C), on the next Business Day to Holders as of the Close of Business on the

immediately preceding Regular Record Date; and (y) the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price will include interest on Notes to be repurchased from, and including, such Interest Payment Date.

(E) Fundamental Change Notice. On or before the twentieth (20th) calendar day after the effective date of a Fundamental Change, the

Issuer will deliver to each Holder, the Trustee, the Conversion Agent and the Paying Agent a notice of such Fundamental Change (a “Fundamental Change Notice”). Substantially contemporaneously, the Issuer will either (x) issue

a press release through such national newswire service as the Issuer then uses; (y) publish the same through such other widely disseminated public medium as the Issuer then uses, including its website; or (z) file or furnish a Form 8-K (or any successor form) with the SEC, in each case of clauses (x), (y) and (z), containing the information set forth in the Fundamental Change Notice.

Such Fundamental Change Notice must state:

Section 4.02, including the deadline for exercising the Fundamental Change Repurchase Right and the procedures for submitting and withdrawing a Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice;

(iv) the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date for such Fundamental Change;

(v) the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes for such Fundamental Change (and, if such

- 93 -

(vi) the name and address of the Paying Agent and the Conversion Agent;

(vii) the Conversion Rate in effect on the date of such Fundamental Change Notice and a description and quantification of any

may be converted only if such Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice is withdrawn in accordance with this Indenture; and

(xi) the CUSIP and ISIN numbers, if any, of the Notes.

Neither the failure to deliver a Fundamental Change Notice nor any defect in a Fundamental Change Notice will limit the Fundamental Change

Repurchase Right of any Holder or otherwise affect the validity of any proceedings relating to any Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change.

(F) Procedures to Exercise the Fundamental Change Repurchase Right.

(i) Delivery of Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice and Notes to Be Repurchased. To exercise its Fundamental Change

Repurchase Right for a Note following a Fundamental Change, the Holder thereof must deliver to the Paying Agent:

Note is a Global Note).

The Paying Agent will promptly deliver to the Issuer a copy of each Fundamental Change Repurchase

Notice that it receives.

(ii) Contents of Fundamental Change Repurchase Notices. Each Fundamental Change

Repurchase Notice with respect to a Note must state:

Notice with respect to a Note may withdraw such Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice by delivering a written notice of withdrawal to the Paying Agent at any time before the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately before the related

Fundamental Change Repurchase Date. Such withdrawal notice must state:

Repurchase Notice, which must be an Authorized Denomination;

provided, however, that if such Note is a Global Note, then

such withdrawal notice must comply with the Depositary Procedures (and any such withdrawal notice delivered in compliance with the Depositary Procedures will be deemed to satisfy the requirements of this Section 4.02(F)).

Upon receipt of any such withdrawal notice with respect to a Note (or any portion thereof), the Paying Agent will (x) promptly

deliver a copy of such withdrawal notice to the Issuer; and (y) if such Note is surrendered to the Paying Agent, cause such Note (or such portion thereof in accordance with Section 2.11, treating such Note as having

been then surrendered for partial repurchase in the amount set forth in such withdrawal notice as remaining subject to repurchase) to be returned to the Holder thereof (or, if applicable with respect to any Global Note, cancel any instructions for

book-entry transfer to the Issuer, the Trustee or the Paying Agent of the applicable beneficial interest in such Note in accordance with the Depositary Procedures).

- 95 -

(G) Payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price. Without limiting the

Issuer’s obligation to deposit the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price within the time prescribed by Section 3.02(B), the Issuer will cause the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price for a Note (or portion thereof) to be

repurchased pursuant to a Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change to be paid to the Holder thereof on or before the later of (i) the applicable Fundamental Change Repurchase Date; and (ii) the date (x) such Note is delivered to the Paying

Agent (in the case of a Physical Note) or (y) the Depositary Procedures relating to the repurchase, and the delivery to the Paying Agent, of such Holder’s beneficial interest in such Note to be repurchased are complied with (in the case

of a Global Note). For the avoidance of doubt, interest payable pursuant to the proviso to Section 4.02(D) on any Note to be repurchased pursuant to a Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change must be paid pursuant to such proviso

regardless of whether such Note is delivered or such Depositary Procedures are complied with pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 4.02(G).

(H) Repurchase by Third Party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.02, the Issuer will

be deemed to satisfy its obligations under this Section 4.02 if (i) one or more third parties conduct any Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change and related offer to repurchase Notes otherwise required by this

Section 4.02 in a manner that would have satisfied the requirements of this Section 4.02 if conducted directly by the Issuer; and (ii) an owner of a beneficial interest in any Note repurchased

by such third party or parties will not receive a lesser amount as a result of withholding or similar taxes than such owner would have received had the Issuer repurchased such Note.

(I) Compliance with Applicable Securities Laws. To the extent applicable, the Issuer will comply with all federal and state securities

laws in connection with a Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change (including complying with Rules 13e-4 and 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and filing any required Schedule TO,

to the extent applicable) so as to permit effecting such Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change in the manner set forth in this Indenture; provided, however, that, to the extent that any securities laws or regulations enacted after the

Issue Date conflict with the Section 4.02, the Issuer will comply with such securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.02 (nor will

such compliance be considered a Default or an Event of Default hereunder) by virtue of such conflict.

(J) Repurchase in Part.

Subject to the terms of this Section 4.02, Notes may be repurchased pursuant to a Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change in part, but only in Authorized Denominations. Provisions of this Section 4.02

applying to the repurchase of a Note in whole will equally apply to the repurchase of a permitted portion of a Note.

(K) No

Requirement to Conduct an Offer to Repurchase Notes if the Fundamental Change Results in the Notes Becoming Convertible into an Amount of Cash Exceeding the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this

Section 4.02, the Issuer will not be required to send a Fundamental Change Notice pursuant to Section 4.02(E), or offer to repurchase or repurchase any Notes pursuant to this

Section 4.02, in connection with a Common Stock Change Event that constitutes a Fundamental Change pursuant to clause (B)(ii) of the definition thereof (regardless of whether such Common Stock Change Event also constitutes

a Fundamental Change pursuant to any other clause of such definition), if (i) the Reference Property of such Common Stock Change Event consists entirely of cash in U.S. dollars; (ii) immediately after such Fundamental Change, the Notes

become convertible, pursuant to Section 5.09(A) and, if applicable, Section 5.07, into consideration that consists solely of U.S. dollars in an amount per $1,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes

that equals or exceeds the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price per $1,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes

- 96 -

(calculated (1) assuming that the same includes accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the latest possible Fundamental Change Repurchase Date for such Fundamental Change (determined

without regard to the proviso in Section 4.02(D))); and (2) without regard to the proviso to the first sentence of Section 4.02(D)); and (iii) the Issuer timely sends the notice relating

to such Fundamental Change and includes, in such notice, a statement that the Issuer is relying on this Section 4.02(K).

Section 4.03. RIGHT OF THE ISSUER TO REDEEM

THE NOTES.

(A) No Right to Redeem Before March 20, 2028. The Issuer may not redeem the

Notes at any time before March 20, 2028.

(B) Right to Redeem the Notes on or after March 20, 2028. Subject to the terms

of this Section 4.03, the Issuer has the right, at its election, to redeem (a “Redemption”) all, or any portion in an Authorized Denomination, of the Notes, at any time, and from time to time, on a

Redemption Date that falls on or after March 20, 2028 and on or before the thirty-fifth (35th) Scheduled Trading Day immediately before the Maturity Date, for a cash purchase price equal to the Redemption Price, but only if (i) the Notes

are Freely Tradable, and all accrued and unpaid Additional Interest, if any, has been paid in full, as of the Redemption Notice Date for such Redemption; and (ii) the Last Reported Sale Price per share of Common Stock exceeds (x) one

hundred and seventy-five percent (175%) of the Conversion Price if the Redemption Date falls on or before March 19, 2029, or (y) one hundred and thirty percent (130%) of the Conversion Price if the Redemption Date falls on or after

March 20, 2029, as applicable, in each case on (A) each of at least twenty (20) Trading Days (whether or not consecutive) during the thirty (30) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately

before such Redemption Notice Date; and (B) the Trading Day immediately before such Redemption Notice Date.

For the avoidance of

doubt, the calling (or the deemed calling, as provided in Section 4.03(K)) of any Notes for Redemption will constitute a Make-Whole Event with respect to such Notes pursuant to clause (B) of the definition

thereof.

(C) [Reserved].

(D) Redemption Prohibited in Certain Circumstances. If the principal amount of the Notes has been accelerated and such acceleration has

not been rescinded on or before the Redemption Date (including as a result of the payment of the related Redemption Price, and any related interest pursuant to the proviso to Section 4.03(F), on such Redemption Date), then

(i) the Issuer may not call for Redemption or otherwise redeem any Notes pursuant to this Section 4.03; and (ii) the Issuer will cause any Notes theretofore surrendered for such Redemption to be returned to the

Holders thereof (or, if applicable with respect to Global Notes, cancel any instructions for book-entry transfer to the Issuer, the Trustee or the Paying Agent of the applicable beneficial interests in such Notes in accordance with the Depositary

Procedures).

(E) Redemption Date. The Redemption Date for a Redemption will be a Business Day of the Issuer’s choosing that

is no more than sixty (60) Scheduled Trading Days and not less than thirty-five (35) Scheduled Trading Days after the related Redemption Notice Date for such Redemption; provided, however, that if, in accordance with

Section 5.03(A)(i)(3), the Issuer has

- 97 -

elected to settle all conversions of Notes with a Conversion Date that occurs on or after such Redemption Notice Date and on or before the second (2nd) Business Day immediately before the

Redemption Date by Physical Settlement, then the Issuer may instead elect to choose a Redemption Date that is a Business Day no more than sixty (60), nor less than fifteen (15), calendar days after such Redemption Notice Date.

(F) Redemption Price. The Redemption Price for any Note called for Redemption is an amount in cash equal to one hundred percent (100%)

of the principal amount of such Note plus accrued and unpaid interest on such Note to, but excluding, the Redemption Date for such Redemption; provided, however, that if such Redemption Date is after a Regular Record Date and on or

before the next Interest Payment Date, then (i) the Holder of such Note at the Close of Business on such Regular Record Date will be entitled, notwithstanding such Redemption, to receive, on or, at the Issuer’s election, before such

Interest Payment Date, the unpaid interest that would have accrued on such Note to, but excluding, such Interest Payment Date (assuming, solely for these purposes, that such Note remained outstanding through such Interest Payment Date, if such

Redemption Date is before such Interest Payment Date); and (ii) the Redemption Price will not include accrued and unpaid interest on such Note to, but excluding, such Redemption Date. For the avoidance of doubt, if an Interest Payment Date is

not a Business Day within the meaning of Section 2.05(C) and such Redemption Date occurs on the Business Day immediately after such Interest Payment Date, then (x) accrued and unpaid interest on Notes to, but

excluding, such Interest Payment Date will be paid, in accordance with Section 2.05(C), on the next Business Day to Holders as of the Close of Business on the immediately preceding Regular Record Date; and (y) the

Redemption Price will include interest on Notes to be redeemed from, and including, such Interest Payment Date.

(G) Redemption

Notice. To call any Notes for Redemption, the Issuer must (i) deliver to each Holder of such Notes, the Trustee, the Conversion Agent and the Paying Agent a written notice of such Redemption (a “Redemption Notice”); and

(ii) substantially contemporaneously therewith, either (x) issue a press release through such national newswire service as the Issuer then uses; (y) publish the same through such other widely disseminated public medium as the Issuer

then uses, including its website; or (z) file or furnish a Form 8-K (or any successor form) with the SEC, in each case of clauses (x), (y) and (z), containing the information set

forth in the Redemption Notice.

Such Redemption Notice must state:

(i) that such Notes have been called for Redemption, briefly describing the Issuer’s Redemption right under this

Indenture;

(ii) the Redemption Date for such Redemption;

(iii) the Redemption Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes for such Redemption (and, if the Redemption Date is after a

Regular Record Date and on or before the next Interest Payment Date, the amount, manner and timing of the interest payment payable pursuant to the proviso to Section 4.03(F));

(iv) the name and address of the Paying Agent and the Conversion Agent;

- 98 -

(v) that Notes called for Redemption may be converted at any time before the

Close of Business on the second (2nd) Business Day immediately before the Redemption Date (or, if the Issuer fails to pay the Redemption Price due on such Redemption Date in full, at any time until such time as the Issuer pays such Redemption Price

in full);

(vi) the Conversion Rate in effect on the Redemption Notice Date for such Redemption and a description and

quantification of any adjustments to the Conversion Rate that may result from such Redemption (including pursuant to Section 5.07);

(vii) the Settlement Method that will apply to all conversions of Notes with a Conversion Date that occurs on or after such

Redemption Notice Date and on or before the second (2nd) Business Day before such Redemption Date; and

(viii) the CUSIP

and ISIN numbers, if any, of the Notes.

On or before the Redemption Notice Date, the Issuer will deliver a copy of such Redemption Notice

to the Trustee and the Paying Agent. At the Issuer’s request, given in an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee at least five (5) days prior to the requested date of delivery (or such shorter period of time as may be

acceptable to the Trustee), the Trustee shall give such notice in the Issuer’s name; provided, however that in all cases, the text of such Redemption Notice shall be prepared by the Issuer.

(H) [Reserved].

(I)

Selection and Conversion of Notes to Be Redeemed in Part. If less than all Notes then outstanding are called for Redemption, then:

(i) the Notes to be redeemed will be selected by the Issuer as follows: (1) in the case of Global Notes, in accordance

with the Depositary Procedures and, if no such Depositary Procedures apply, pro rata, by lot or by such other method the Issuer considers fair and appropriate; and (2) in the case of Physical Notes, pro rata, by lot or by such

other method the Issuer considers fair and appropriate; and

(ii) if only a portion of a Note is subject to Redemption and

such Note is converted in part, then the converted portion of such Note will be deemed to be from the portion of such Note that was subject to Redemption.

(J) Payment of the Redemption Price. Without limiting the Issuer’s obligation to deposit the Redemption Price by the time

prescribed by Section 3.02(B), the Issuer will cause the Redemption Price for a Note (or portion thereof) subject to Redemption to be paid to the Holder thereof on or before the applicable Redemption Date. For the avoidance

of doubt, interest payable pursuant to the proviso to Section 4.03(F) on any Note (or portion thereof) subject to Redemption must be paid pursuant to such proviso.

(K) Special Provisions for Partial Calls. If the Issuer elects to redeem less than all of the outstanding Notes pursuant to this

Section 4.03, and the Holder of any Note, or any owner of a beneficial interest in any Global Note, is reasonably not able to determine, before the Close of Business on the thirty-second (32nd) Scheduled Trading Day (or,

if, in accordance with Section

- 99 -

5.03(A)(i)(3), the Company has elected to settle all Conversions of Notes with a Conversion Date that occurs on or after the Redemption Notice Date for such Redemption and on or before the

second (2nd) Business Day immediately before the Redemption Date by Physical Settlement, the tenth (10th) calendar day) immediately before the Redemption Date for such redemption, whether such Note or beneficial interest, as applicable, is to be

redeemed pursuant to such redemption, then such Holder or owner, as applicable, will be entitled to convert such Note or beneficial interest, as applicable, at any time before the Close of Business on the second (2nd) Business Day immediately before

such Redemption Date, and each such conversion will be deemed to be of a Note called for redemption for purposes of this Section 4.03 and Section 5.07, and the definition of Make-Whole Event. The

Trustee shall have no obligation to make any determination in connection with the foregoing.

(L) Right to Convert Not Affected.

For the avoidance of doubt, a Redemption will not affect any Holder’s right to convert any Notes on or after the Issue Date and prior to the Close of Business on the second (2nd) Business

Day immediately before the applicable Redemption Date, except to the extent the Issuer fails to pay the Redemption Price for such Note in accordance with this Indenture.

Article 5. CONVERSION

Section 5.01. RIGHT TO CONVERT.

(A) Generally. On and after the Issue Date until the second (2nd) Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date,

subject to the provisions of this Article 5, each Holder may, at its option, convert such Holder’s Notes into Conversion Consideration.

(B) Conversions in Part. Subject to the terms of this Indenture, Notes may be converted in part, but only in Authorized Denominations.

Provisions of this Article 5 applying to the conversion of a Note in whole will equally apply to conversions of a permitted portion of a Note.

(C) When Notes May Be Converted.

(i) [Reserved].

(ii) Limitations and Closed Periods. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or the Notes:

(1) Notes may be surrendered for conversion only after the Open of Business and before the Close of Business on a day that is

a Business Day;

(2) in no event may any Note be converted after the Close of Business on the second (2nd) Scheduled

Trading Day immediately before the Maturity Date;

(3) if the Issuer calls any Note for Redemption pursuant to

Section 4.03, then the Holder of such Note may not convert such Note after the Close of Business on the second (2nd) Business Day immediately before the applicable Redemption Date, except to the extent the Issuer fails to

pay the Redemption Price for such Note in accordance with this Indenture;

- 100 -

(4) if a Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice is validly delivered pursuant

to Section 4.02(F) with respect to any Note, then such Note may not be converted, except to the extent (a) such Note is not subject to such notice; (b) such notice is withdrawn in accordance with

Section 4.02(F); or (c) the Issuer fails to pay the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price for such Note in accordance with this Indenture; and

(5) Physical Notes may not be converted within ten (10) Business Days prior to a mandatory exchange of Physical Notes for

Global Notes.

Section 5.02. CONVERSION PROCEDURES.

(A) Generally.

(i) Global Notes. To convert a beneficial interest in a Global Note that is convertible pursuant to

Section 5.01, the owner of such beneficial interest must (1) comply with the Depositary Procedures for converting such beneficial interest (at which time such conversion will become irrevocable); and (2) pay any

amounts due pursuant to Section 5.02(D) or Section 5.02(E).

(ii)

Physical Notes. To convert all or a portion of a Physical Note that is convertible pursuant to Section 5.01, the Holder of such Note must (1) complete, manually sign and deliver to the Conversion Agent the

conversion notice attached to such Physical Note or a facsimile/email of such conversion notice; (2) deliver such Physical Note to the Conversion Agent (at which time such conversion will become irrevocable); (3) furnish any endorsements and

transfer documents that the Issuer or the Conversion Agent may require; and (4) pay any amounts due pursuant to Section 5.02(D) or Section 5.02(E).

(B) Effect of Converting a Note. At the Close of Business on the Conversion Date for a Note (or any portion thereof) to be converted,

such Note (or such portion) will (unless there occurs a Default in the delivery of the Conversion Consideration or interest due, pursuant to Sections 5.03(B) or 5.03(D), upon such conversion) be deemed to cease to be outstanding

(and, for the avoidance of doubt, no Person will be deemed to be a Holder of such Note (or such portion thereof) as of the Close of Business on such Conversion Date), except to the extent provided in Section 5.02(D).

(C) Holder of Record of Conversion Shares. The Person in whose name any Common Stock is issuable upon conversion of any Note will be

deemed to become the holder of record of such Common Stock as of the Close of Business on (i) the Conversion Date for such conversion, in the case of Physical Settlement; or (ii) the last VWAP Trading Day of the Observation Period for such

conversion, in the case of Combination Settlement.

(D) Interest Payable upon Conversion in Certain Circumstances. If the

Conversion Date of a Note is after a Regular Record Date and before the next Interest Payment Date, then the (i) Holder of such Note at the Close of Business on such Regular Record Date will be entitled, notwithstanding such conversion (and,

for the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding anything set forth in the proviso to this sentence), to receive, on or, at the Issuer’s election, before such Interest Payment Date, the unpaid interest that would have accrued on such Note to, but

excluding, such

- 101 -

Interest Payment Date (assuming, solely for these purposes, that such Note remained outstanding through such Interest Payment Date); and (ii) the Holder surrendering such Note for conversion

must deliver to the Conversion Agent, at the time of such surrender, an amount of cash equal to the amount of such interest referred to in clause (i) above; provided, however, that the Holder surrendering such Note for

conversion need not deliver such cash (w) if the Issuer has specified a Redemption Date for a Redemption that is after such Regular Record Date and on or before the second (2nd) Business Day immediately after such Interest Payment Date;

(x) if such Conversion Date occurs after the Regular Record Date immediately before the Maturity Date; (y) if the Issuer has specified a Fundamental Change Repurchase Date that is after such Regular Record Date and on or before the

Business Day immediately after such Interest Payment Date; or (z) to the extent of any overdue interest or interest that has accrued on any overdue interest. For the avoidance of doubt, as a result of, and without limiting the generality of,

the foregoing, if a Note is converted with a Conversion Date that is after the Regular Record Date immediately before the Maturity Date, then the Issuer will pay, as provided above, the interest that would have accrued on such Note to, but

excluding, the Maturity Date. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Conversion Date of a Note to be converted is on an Interest Payment Date, then the Holder of such Note at the Close of Business on the Regular Record Date immediately before such

Interest Payment Date will be entitled to receive, on such Interest Payment Date, the unpaid interest that has accrued on such Note to, but excluding, such Interest Payment Date, and such Note, when surrendered for conversion, need not be

accompanied by any cash amount pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 5.02(D).

(E) Taxes and

Duties. If a Holder converts a Note, the Issuer will pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax or duty due on the issue or delivery (including, for the avoidance of doubt, pursuant to Section 5.08) of

any Common Stock upon such conversion; provided, however, that if any tax or duty is due because such Holder requested such Common Stock to be registered in a name other than such Holder’s name, then such Holder will pay such tax

or duty.

(F) Conversion Agent to Notify Issuer of Conversions. If any Note is submitted for conversion to the Conversion Agent or

the Conversion Agent receives any notice of conversion with respect to a Note, then the Conversion Agent will promptly notify the Issuer and the Trustee of such occurrence, together with any other information reasonably requested by the Issuer, and

will cooperate with the Issuer to determine the Conversion Date for such Note.

Section 5.03. SETTLEMENT UPON

CONVERSION.

(A) Settlement Method. Upon the conversion of any Note, the Issuer will settle such conversion by

paying or delivering, as applicable and as provided in this Article 5, either (x) Common Stock, together, if applicable, with cash in lieu of fractional shares as provided in Section 5.03(B)(i)(1)

(a “Physical Settlement”); (y) solely cash as provided in Section 5.03(B)(i)(2) (a “Cash Settlement”); or (z) a combination of cash and Common Stock, together, if

applicable, with cash in lieu of fractional shares as provided in Section 5.03(B)(i)(3) (a “Combination Settlement”).

- 102 -

(i) The Issuer’s Right to Elect Settlement

Method. The Issuer will have the right to elect the Settlement Method applicable to any conversion of a Note; provided, however, that:

(1) subject to clause (3) below, all Conversions of Notes with a Conversion Date that occurs after the

thirty fifth (35th) Scheduled Trading Day immediately before the Maturity Date will be settled using the same Settlement Method, and the Company will send notice of such Settlement Method to Holders no later than the Open of Business on the thirty

fifth (35th) Scheduled Trading Day immediately before the Maturity Date;

(2) subject to clause

(3) below, if the Company elects a Settlement Method with respect to the Conversion of any Note whose Conversion Date occurs on or before the thirty fifth (35th) Scheduled Trading Day immediately before the Maturity Date, then the

Company will send notice of such Settlement Method to the Holder of such Note no later than the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately after such Conversion Date;

(3) if any Notes are called for Redemption, then the Issuer will specify, in the related Redemption Notice (and, in the case of

a Redemption of less than all outstanding Notes, in a notice simultaneously sent to all Holders of Notes not called for Redemption) sent pursuant to Section 4.03(G), the Settlement Method that will apply to all conversions

of Notes with a Conversion Date that occurs on or after such Redemption Notice Date and on or before the second (2nd) Business Day before such Redemption Date;

(4) if any Notes are subject to an offer to Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change, then the Issuer will specify, in the related

Fundamental Change Notice sent pursuant to Section 4.02(E), the Settlement Method that will apply to all conversions of Notes with a Conversion Date that occurs on or after the date of such Fundamental Change Notice and on

or before the second (2nd) Business Day before such Fundamental Change Repurchase Date;

(5) the Issuer will use the same

Settlement Method for all conversions of Notes with the same Conversion Date (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Issuer will not be obligated to use the same Settlement Method with respect to conversions of Notes with different Conversion Dates,

except as provided in clause (1) and clause (2) above);

(6) if, in respect of any

Conversion Date (or one of the periods described in the third immediately succeeding set of parentheses, as the case may be), the Issuer elects to deliver a notice (the “Settlement Notice”) of the relevant Settlement Method in

respect of such Conversion Date (or such period, as the case may be), the Issuer shall deliver such Settlement Notice to converting Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent no later than the close of business on the Trading Day immediately

following the relevant Conversion Date (or, in the case of any conversions (x) of any Notes for which the relevant Conversion Date occurs on or

- 103 -

after the date of issuance of a Redemption Notice and prior to the related Redemption Date, in such Redemption Notice, (y) for which the Issuer has irrevocably elected Physical Settlement

pursuant to Section 5.03(B)(i)(1), in the related notice described therein or (z) for which the Issuer has made an irrevocable election pursuant to Section 5.03(A)(ii), in the Issuer’s

notice of such irrevocable election to the Holders) (in each case, the “Settlement Method Election Deadline”). If the Issuer does not timely elect a Settlement Method with respect to the conversion of a Note prior to the

Settlement Method Election Deadline, then the Issuer shall no longer have the right to elect Cash Settlement or Physical Settlement for such conversion or during such period and will be deemed to have elected the Default Settlement Method (and, for

the avoidance of doubt, the failure to timely make such election will not constitute a Default or Event of Default). Such Settlement Notice shall specify the relevant Settlement Method and in the case of an election of Combination Settlement, the

relevant Settlement Notice shall indicate the Specified Dollar Amount per $1,000 principal amount of Notes;

(7) if the

Issuer timely elects Combination Settlement with respect to the conversion of a Note but does not timely notify the Holder of such Note of the applicable Specified Dollar Amount, then the Specified Dollar Amount for such conversion will be deemed to

be $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the failure to timely send such notification will not constitute a Default or Event of Default); and

(8) the Settlement Method will be subject to Section 5.09(A)(2).

(ii) The Issuer’s Right to Irrevocably Fix the Settlement Method. The Issuer will have the right,

exercisable at its election by sending notice of such exercise to the Holders (with a copy to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent), to irrevocably fix the Settlement Method, or irrevocably eliminate any one or more (but not all) Settlement Methods,

in each case that will apply to all conversions of Notes with a Conversion Date that occurs on or after the date such notice is sent to Holders, provided that (x) such Settlement Method must be a Settlement Method that the Issuer is then

permitted to elect (for the avoidance of doubt, including pursuant to, and subject to, the other provisions of this Section 5.03(A)); (y) no such irrevocable election will affect any Settlement Method theretofore elected

(or deemed to be elected) with respect to any Note pursuant to the other provisions of this Section 5.03(A); and (z) upon any such irrevocable election, the Default Settlement Method will automatically be deemed to be

set to the Settlement Method so fixed. Such notice, if sent, must set forth the applicable Settlement Method and expressly state that the election is irrevocable and applicable to all conversions of Notes with a Conversion Date that occurs on or

after the date such notice is sent to Holders. For the avoidance of doubt, such an irrevocable election, if made, will be effective without the need to amend this Indenture or the Notes, including pursuant to

Section 8.01(F) (it being understood, however, that the Issuer may nonetheless choose to execute such an amendment at its option).

- 104 -

(iii) Requirement to Publicly Disclose the Fixed or Default Settlement

Method. If the Issuer changes the Default Settlement Method pursuant to clause (x) of the proviso to the definition of such term or irrevocably fixes the Settlement Method pursuant to

Section 5.03(A)(i), then the Issuer will either post the Default Settlement Method or fixed Settlement Method, as applicable, on its website or disclose the same in a Current Report on Form

8-K (or any successor form) that is filed with the SEC.

(B) Conversion Consideration.

(i) Generally. Subject to Section 5.03(B)(ii) and

Section 5.03(B)(iii), the type and amount of consideration (the “Conversion Consideration”) due in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of a Note to be converted will be as follows:

(1) if Physical Settlement applies to such conversion, consideration consisting of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to

the Conversion Rate in effect on the Conversion Date for such conversion;

(2) if Cash Settlement applies to such

conversion, consideration consisting of cash in an amount equal to the sum of the Daily Conversion Values for each VWAP Trading Day in the Observation Period for such conversion; or

(3) if Combination Settlement applies to such conversion, consideration consisting of (x) a number of shares of Common

Stock equal to the sum of the Daily Share Amounts for each VWAP Trading Day in the Observation Period for such conversion, and (y) an amount of cash equal to the sum of the Daily Cash Amounts for each VWAP Trading Day in such Observation

Period.

(ii) Cash in Lieu of Fractional Shares. If Physical Settlement or Combination Settlement applies to the

conversion of any Note and the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable pursuant to Section 5.03(B)(i) upon such conversion is not a whole number, then such number will be rounded down to the nearest whole

number and the Issuer will deliver, in addition to the other consideration due upon such conversion, cash in lieu of the related fractional share in an amount equal to the product of (1) such fraction and (2) (x) the Daily VWAP on the

Conversion Date for such conversion (or, if such Conversion Date is not a VWAP Trading Day, the immediately preceding VWAP Trading Day), in the case of Physical Settlement; or (y) the Daily VWAP on the last VWAP Trading Day of the Observation

Period for such conversion, in the case of Combination Settlement.

(iii) Conversion of Multiple Notes by a Single

Holder. If a Holder converts more than one (1) Note on a single Conversion Date, then the Conversion Consideration due in respect of such conversion will (in the case of any Global Note, to the extent permitted by, and practicable under,

the Depositary Procedures) be computed based on the total principal amount of Notes converted on such Conversion Date by such Holder.

(iv) Notice of Calculation of Conversion Consideration. If Cash Settlement or Combination Settlement applies to the

conversion of any Note, then the Issuer will determine the Conversion Consideration due thereupon promptly following the last VWAP Trading Day of the applicable Observation Period and will promptly thereafter send notice to the Trustee and the

Conversion Agent of the same and the calculation thereof in reasonable detail. Neither the Trustee nor the Conversion Agent will have any duty to make any such determination.

- 105 -

(C) Delivery of the Conversion Consideration. Except as set forth in Sections

5.05(D) and 5.09, the Issuer will pay or deliver, as applicable, the Conversion Consideration due upon the conversion of any Note to the Holder as follows: (i) if Cash Settlement or Combination Settlement applies to such conversion,

on or before the second (2nd) Business Day immediately after the last VWAP Trading Day of the Observation Period for such conversion; and (ii) if Physical Settlement applies to such conversion, on or before the second (2nd) Business Day

immediately after the Conversion Date for such conversion; provided, however, that if a Note is converted with a Conversion Date that is after the Regular Record Date immediately before the Maturity Date, then, solely for purposes of

such conversion, (x) the Issuer will deliver the Conversion Consideration due upon such conversion on the Maturity Date (or, if the Maturity Date is not a Business Day, the next Business Day); and (y) the Conversion Date will instead be

deemed to be the second (2nd) Business Day immediately before the Maturity Date.

(D) Deemed Payment of Principal and Interest;

Settlement of Accrued Interest Notwithstanding Conversion. If a Holder converts a Note, then the Issuer will not adjust the Conversion Rate to account for any accrued and unpaid interest on such Note, and, except as provided in

Section 5.02(D), the Issuer’s delivery of the Conversion Consideration due in respect of such conversion will be deemed to fully satisfy and discharge the Issuer’s obligation to pay the principal of, and accrued

and unpaid interest, if any, on, such Note to, but excluding the Conversion Date. As a result, except as provided in Section 5.02(D), any accrued and unpaid interest on a converted Note will be deemed to be paid in full

rather than cancelled, extinguished or forfeited. In addition, subject to Section 5.02(D), if the Conversion Consideration for a Note consists of both cash and shares of Common Stock, then accrued and unpaid interest that

is deemed to be paid therewith will be deemed to be paid first out of such cash.

Section 5.04. RESERVE AND

STATUS OF COMMON STOCK ISSUED UPON CONVERSION.

(A) The Issuer shall at all times reserve for issuance and provide, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued shares or

shares held in treasury, sufficient shares of Common Stock to permit the conversion of all then-outstanding Notes, assuming (x) Physical Settlement will apply to such conversion; and (y) the Conversion Rate is increased by the maximum

amount pursuant to which the Conversion Rate may be increased pursuant to Section 5.07.

(B) Each Conversion

Share, if any, delivered upon conversion of any Note will be a newly issued share (except that any Conversion Share delivered by a designated financial institution pursuant to Section 5.08 need not be a newly issued share),

will be duly and validly issued, fully paid, non-assessable, free from preemptive rights and free of any lien or adverse claim (except to the extent of any lien or adverse claim created by the action or

inaction of the Holder of such Note or the Person to whom such Conversion Share will be delivered) and will rank pari passu with the existing Common Stock. If the Common Stock is then listed on any securities exchange, or quoted on any inter-dealer

quotation system, then the Issuer will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each Conversion Share, when delivered upon conversion of any Note, to be admitted for listing on such exchange or quotation on such system.

Section 5.05. ADJUSTMENTS TO THE

CONVERSION RATE.

(A) Events Requiring an Adjustment to the Conversion Rate. The Conversion Rate

will be adjusted from time to time as follows:

(i) Stock Dividends, Splits and Combinations. If the Issuer issues

solely the shares of Common Stock as a dividend or distribution on all or substantially all of the shares of Common Stock, or if the Issuer effects a split or a combination of the shares of Common Stock (in each case excluding an issuance solely

pursuant to a Common Stock Change Event, as to which Section 5.09 will apply), then the Conversion Rate will be adjusted based on the following formula:

where:

CR0

=

the Conversion Rate in effect immediately before the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution, or immediately before the Open of Business on the effective

date of such split or combination, as applicable;

CR1

=

the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date or effective date, as applicable;

OS0

=

the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date or effective date, as applicable, without giving effect to such dividend,

distribution, split or combination; and

OS1

=

the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such dividend, distribution, split or combination.

If any dividend, distribution, split or combination of the type described in this

Section 5.05(A)(i) is declared or announced, but not so paid or made, then the Conversion Rate will be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to pay such dividend or distribution or to

effect such split or combination, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had such dividend, distribution, split or combination not been declared or announced.

(ii) Rights, Options and Warrants. If the Issuer distributes, to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock,

rights, options or warrants (other than rights issued or otherwise distributed pursuant to a stockholder rights plan, as to which Sections 5.05(A)(iii)(1) and 5.05(F) will apply) entitling such holders, for a period of not more

than sixty (60) calendar days after the record date of such distribution, to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share that is less than the average of the

- 107 -

Last Reported Sale Prices per share of Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately before the date such distribution is

announced, then the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:

where:

CR0

=

the Conversion Rate in effect immediately before the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;

CR1

=

the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date;

OS

=

the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date;

X

=

the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants; and

Y

=

a number of shares of Common Stock obtained by dividing (x) the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants by (y) the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the ten

(10) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately before the date the distribution of such rights, options or warrants is announced.

To the extent such rights, options or warrants referred to in this

Section 5.05(A)(ii) are not so distributed, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the increase to the Conversion Rate for such distribution been made on the basis of

only the rights, options or warrants, if any, actually distributed. In addition, to the extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights, options or warrants (including as a result of such rights, options or

warrants not being exercised), the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the increase to the Conversion Rate for such distribution been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares

of Common Stock actually delivered upon exercise of such rights, option or warrants.

For purposes of this

Section 5.05(A)(ii), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle holders of Common Stock to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share that is less than the average of the Last

Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately before the date the distribution of such rights, options or warrants is announced, and in determining the

aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, there will be taken into account any consideration the Issuer receives for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise thereof, with the value of such

consideration, if not cash, to be determined by the Issuer in good faith.

- 108 -

(iii) Spin-Offs and Other Distributed Property.

(1) Distributions Other than Spin-Offs. If the Issuer distributes shares of its Equity Interests, evidence of its

indebtedness or other assets or property of the Issuer, or rights, options or warrants to acquire Equity Interests of the Issuer or other securities, to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, excluding:

(a) dividends, distributions, rights, options or warrants (including Common Stock splits) for which an adjustment to the

Conversion Rate is required (or would be required without regard to Section 5.05(C)) pursuant to Sections 5.05(A)(i) or 5.05(A)(ii);

(b) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash for which an adjustment to the Conversion Rate is required (or would

be required without regard to Section 5.05(C)) pursuant to Section 5.05(A)(iv);

(c) rights issued or otherwise distributed pursuant to a stockholder rights plan, except to the extent provided in

Section 5.05(F);

(d) Spin-Offs for which an adjustment to the Conversion Rate is required (or

would be required without regard to Section 5.05(C)) pursuant to Section 5.05(A)(iii)(2);

(e) a distribution solely pursuant to a tender offer or exchange offer for Common Stock, as to which

Section 5.05(A)(v) will apply; and

(f) a distribution solely pursuant to a Common Stock Change

Event, as to which Section 5.09 will apply,

then the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following

formula:

where:

CR0

=

the Conversion Rate in effect immediately before the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;

CR1

=

the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date;

- 109 -

SP

=

the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately before such Ex-Dividend

Date; and

FMV

=

the fair market value (as determined by the Issuer in good faith), as of such Ex-Dividend Date, of the shares of Equity Interests, evidences of indebtedness, assets, property, rights, options

or warrants distributed per share of Common Stock pursuant to such distribution;

provided, however, that if FMV is equal to or greater than SP, then, in lieu

of the foregoing adjustment to the Conversion Rate, each Holder will receive, for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes held by such Holder on the record date for such distribution, at the same time and on the same terms as holders of Common Stock,

and without having to convert its Notes, the amount and kind of shares of Equity Interests, evidences of indebtedness, assets, property, rights, options or warrants that such Holder would have received if such Holder had owned, on such record date,

a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on such record date.

To the extent such distribution is not so

paid or made, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the adjustment been made on the basis of only the distribution, if any, actually made or paid.

(2) Spin-Offs. If the Issuer distributes or dividends shares of Equity Interests of any class or series, or similar

equity interests, of or relating to a Subsidiary or other business unit of the Issuer to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock (other than solely pursuant to (x) a Common Stock Change Event, as to which

Section 5.09 will apply; or (y) a tender offer or exchange offer for Common Stock, as to which Section 5.05(A)(v) will apply), and such Equity Interests are listed or quoted (or will be listed

or quoted upon the consummation of the transaction) on a U.S. national securities exchange (a “Spin-Off”), then the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:

where:

CR0

=

the Conversion Rate in effect immediately before the Close of Business on the last Trading Day of the Spin-Off Valuation Period for such

Spin-Off;

CR1

=

the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Close of Business on the last Trading Day of the Spin-Off Valuation

Period;

- 110 -

FMV

=

the product of (x) the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share or unit of the Equity Interests distributed in such Spin-Off over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day

period (the “Spin-Off Valuation Period”) beginning on, and including, the Ex- Dividend Date for such Spin-Off

(such average to be determined as if references to Common Stock in the definitions of Last Reported Sale Price, Trading Day and Market Disruption Event were instead references to such Equity Interests); and (y) the number of shares or units of

such Equity Interests distributed per share of Common Stock in such Spin-Off; and

SP

=

the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock for each Trading Day in the Spin-Off Valuation Period.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.05(A)(iii)(2), (i)

if any VWAP Trading Day of the Observation Period for a Note whose conversion will be settled pursuant to Cash Settlement or Combination Settlement occurs during the Spin-Off Valuation Period for such Spin-Off, then, solely for purposes of determining the Conversion Rate for such VWAP Trading Day for such conversion, such Spin-Off Valuation Period will be deemed to consist

of the Trading Days occurring in the period from, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date for such Spin- Off to, and including, such VWAP Trading Day; and (ii) if the Conversion Date for a Note whose

conversion will be settled pursuant to Physical Settlement occurs during the Spin-Off Valuation Period for such Spin-Off, then, solely for purposes of determining the

Conversion Consideration for such conversion, such Spin-Off Valuation Period will be deemed to consist of the Trading Days occurring in the period from, and including, the

Ex-Dividend Date for such Spin-Off to, and including, such Conversion Date.

To the extent any dividend or distribution of the type set forth in this Section 5.05(A)(iii)(2) is declared but not

made or paid, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the adjustment been made on the basis of only the dividend or distribution, if any, actually made or paid.

(iv) Cash Dividends or Distributions. If any cash dividend or distribution is made to all or substantially all holders

of Common Stock, then the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:

where:

CR0

=

the Conversion Rate in effect immediately before the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;

CR1

=

the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date;

SP

=

the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately before such Ex-Dividend Date; and

D

=

the cash amount distributed per share of Common Stock in such dividend or distribution;

- 111 -

provided, however, that if D is equal to or greater than SP,

then, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment to the Conversion Rate, each Holder will receive, for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes held by such Holder on the record date for such dividend or distribution, at the same time and on the same terms as

holders of Common Stock, and without having to convert its Notes, the amount of cash that such Holder would have received if such Holder had owned, on such record date, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on

such record date.

To the extent such dividend or distribution is declared but not made or paid, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to

the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the adjustment been made on the basis of only the dividend or distribution, if any, actually made or paid.

(v) Tender Offers or Exchange Offers. If the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries makes a payment in respect of a tender

offer or exchange offer that is subject to the then- applicable tender offer rules under the Exchange Act (other than solely pursuant to an odd- lot tender offer pursuant to Rule

13e-4(h)(5) under the Exchange Act or any successor rule thereto), for Common Stock, and the value (determined as of the Expiration Time by the Board of Directors) of the cash and other consideration paid per

share of Common Stock in such tender or exchange offer exceeds the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately after the last date (the “Expiration Date”) on which tenders or exchanges may be made

pursuant to such tender or exchange offer (as it may be amended), then the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:

where:

CR0

=

the Conversion Rate in effect immediately before the Close of Business on the last Trading Day of the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period (the “Tender/Exchange Offer Valuation Period”) beginning on, and

including, the Trading Day immediately after the Expiration Date;

CR1

=

the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Close of Business on the last Trading Day of the Tender/Exchange Offer Valuation Period;

AC

=

the aggregate value (determined as of the time (the “Expiration Time”) such tender or exchange offer expires by the Board of Directors) of all cash and other consideration paid for Common Stock purchased or

exchanged in such tender or exchange offer;

- 112 -

OS0

=

the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before the Expiration Time (including all shares of Common Stock accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer);

OS1

=

the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the Expiration Time (excluding all shares of Common Stock accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer); and

SP

=

the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the Tender/Exchange Offer Valuation Period beginning on, and including, the Trading Day immediately after the Expiration Date;

provided, however, that the Conversion Rate will in no event be adjusted down pursuant to

this Section 5.05(A)(v), except to the extent provided in the immediately following paragraph. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.05(A)(v), (i) if any VWAP Trading Day of

the Observation Period for a Note whose conversion will be settled pursuant to Cash Settlement or Combination Settlement occurs during the Tender/Exchange Offer Valuation Period for such tender or exchange offer, then, solely for purposes of

determining the Conversion Rate for such VWAP Trading Day for such conversion, such Tender/Exchange Offer Valuation Period will be deemed to consist of the Trading Days occurring in the period from, and including, the Trading Day immediately after

the Expiration Date for such tender or exchange offer to, and including, such VWAP Trading Day; and (ii) if the Conversion Date for a Note whose conversion will be settled pursuant to Physical Settlement occurs during the Tender/Exchange Offer

Valuation Period for such tender or exchange offer, then, solely for purposes of determining the Conversion Consideration for such conversion, such Tender/Exchange Offer Valuation Period will be deemed to consist of the Trading Days occurring in the

period from, and including, the Trading Day immediately after the Expiration Date to, and including, such Conversion Date.

To the extent

such tender or exchange offer is announced but not consummated (including as a result of the Issuer being precluded from consummating such tender or exchange offer under applicable law), or any purchases or exchanges of Common Stock in such tender

or exchange offer are rescinded, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the adjustment been made on the basis of only the purchases or exchanges of Common Stock, if any, actually made, and not

rescinded, in such tender or exchange offer.

(B) No Adjustments in Certain Cases.

(i) Where Holders Participate in the Transaction or Event Without Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary

in Section 5.05(A), the Issuer will not be obligated to adjust the Conversion Rate on account of a transaction or other event otherwise requiring an adjustment pursuant to Section 5.05(A) (other

than a split or combination of the type set forth in Section 5.05(A)(i) or a tender or exchange offer of the type set forth in Section 5.05(A)(v)) if each Holder participates, at the

same time and on the same terms as holders of Common Stock, and solely by virtue of being a Holder of Notes, in such transaction or event without having to convert such Holder’s Notes and as if such Holder held a number of shares of Common

Stock equal to the product of (i) the Conversion Rate in effect on the related record date; and (ii) the aggregate principal amount (expressed in thousands) of Notes held by such Holder on such date.

- 113 -

(ii) Certain Events. The Issuer will not be required to adjust the

Conversion Rate except as provided in Section 5.05 or Section 5.07. Without limiting the foregoing, the Issuer will not be obligated to adjust the Conversion Rate on account of:

(1) except as otherwise provided in Section 5.05 or Section 5.07, the sale

of shares of Common Stock for a purchase price that is less than the market price per share of Common Stock or less than the Conversion Price;

(2) the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of

dividends or interest payable on the Issuer’s securities and the investment of additional optional amounts in shares of Common Stock under any such plan;

(3) the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or options or rights to purchase those shares of Common Stock pursuant to any

present or future employee, director or consultant benefit or incentive plan (including pursuant to an evergreen provision) or program of, or assumed by, the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries or in connection with any shares withheld for tax

withholding purposes;

(4) the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right or convertible

or exchangeable security of the Issuer outstanding or announced as of the Issue Date;

(5) for a tender offer or exchange

offer by any party other than a tender offer or exchange offer by the Issuer or one or more of its Subsidiaries as described in Section 5.05(A)(v);

(6) an odd-lot tender offer pursuant to Rule

13e-4(h)(5) under the Exchange Act or any successor rule thereto;

(7) upon the

repurchase of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to an open-market repurchase program or other buyback transaction (including through any structured or derivative transactions, such as accelerated share repurchase transactions, prepaid forward

transactions or similar forward derivatives) that is not a tender offer or exchange offer of the nature described in Section 5.05(A)(v);

(8) solely a change in the par value (or lack of par value) of the Common Stock; or

(9) accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes.

- 114 -

(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or the

Notes (but without limiting the operation of Section 5.05(H)), the Conversion Rate will not be adjusted pursuant to Section 5.05(A) on an account of any event described in any of clauses

(i) through (v), inclusive, of Section 5.05(A) where the Ex- Dividend Date, effective date or Expiration Date, as applicable, of such event occurs before the Issue

Date.

(C) If an adjustment to the Conversion Rate otherwise required by this Article 5 would result in a change of less than one

percent (1%) to the Conversion Rate, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 5, the Issuer may, at its election, defer such adjustment, except that all such deferred adjustments must be given effect immediately upon the

earliest of the following: (i) when all such deferred adjustments not already given effect would result in a change of at least one percent (1%) to the Conversion Rate; (ii) the Conversion Date of, or any VWAP Trading Day of an Observation

Period for, any Note; (iii) the date a Fundamental Change or Make- Whole Event occurs; (iv) the date the Issuer calls any Notes for Redemption; and (v) the thirty fifth (35th) VWAP Trading Day before the Maturity Date.

(D) Adjustments Not Yet Effective. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or the Notes, if:

(i) a Note is to be converted pursuant to Physical Settlement or Combination Settlement;

(ii) the record date, effective date or Expiration Time for any event that requires an adjustment to the Conversion Rate

pursuant to Section 5.05(A) has occurred on or before the Conversion Date for such conversion (in the case of Physical Settlement) or on or before any VWAP Trading Day in the Observation Period for such conversion (in the

case of Combination Settlement), but an adjustment to the Conversion Rate for such event has not yet become effective as of such Conversion Date or VWAP Trading Day, as applicable;

(iii) the Conversion Consideration due upon such conversion includes any whole shares of Common Stock (in the case of Physical

Settlement) or due in respect of such VWAP Trading Day includes any whole or fractional shares of Common Stock (in the case of Combination Settlement); and

(iv) such shares of Common Stock are not entitled to participate in such event (because they were not held on the related

record date or otherwise),

then, solely for purposes of such conversion, the Issuer will, without duplication, give effect to such adjustment on such

Conversion Date (in the case of Physical Settlement) or such VWAP Trading Day (in the case of Combination Settlement). In such case, if the date on which the Issuer is otherwise required to deliver the consideration due upon such conversion is

before the first date on which the amount of such adjustment can be determined, then the Issuer will delay the settlement of such conversion until the second (2nd) Business Day after such first date.

- 115 -

(E) Conversion Rate Adjustments where Converting Holders Participate in the Relevant

Transaction or Event. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or the Notes, if:

(i) a Conversion

Rate adjustment for any dividend or distribution becomes effective on any Ex-Dividend Date pursuant to Section 5.05(A);

(ii) a Note is to be converted pursuant to Physical Settlement or Combination Settlement;

(iii) the Conversion Date for such conversion (in the case of Physical Settlement) or any VWAP Trading Day in the Observation

Period for such conversion (in the case of Combination Settlement) occurs on or after such Ex-Dividend Date and on or before the related record date;

(iv) the Conversion Consideration due upon such conversion includes any whole shares of Common Stock (in the case of Physical

Settlement) or due in respect of such VWAP Trading Day includes any whole or fractional shares of Common Stock (in the case of Combination Settlement), in each case based on a Conversion Rate that is adjusted for such dividend or distribution; and

(v) such shares would be entitled to participate in such dividend or distribution (including pursuant to

Section 5.02(C)),

then (x) in the case of Physical Settlement, such Conversion Rate adjustment will not be given effect

for such conversion and the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion based on such unadjusted Conversion Rate will not be entitled to participate in such dividend or distribution, but there will be added, to the Conversion Consideration otherwise

due upon such conversion, the same kind and amount of consideration that would have been delivered in such dividend or distribution with respect to such shares of Common Stock had such shares been entitled to participate in such dividend or

distribution; and (y) in the case of Combination Settlement, the Conversion Rate adjustment relating to such Ex-Dividend Date will be made for such conversion in respect of such VWAP Trading Day, but the

shares of Common Stock issuable with respect to such VWAP Trading Day based on such adjusted Conversion Rate will not be entitled to participate in such dividend or distribution.

(F) Stockholder Rights Plans. If any shares of Common Stock are to be issued or delivered upon conversion of any Note and, at the time

of such conversion, the Issuer has in effect any stockholder rights plan, then the Holder of such Note will be entitled to receive, in addition to, and concurrently with the delivery of, the Conversion Consideration otherwise payable under this

Indenture upon such conversion, the rights set forth in such stockholder rights plan, unless such rights have separated from the Common Stock at such time, in which case, and only in such case, the Conversion Rate will be adjusted pursuant to

Section 5.05(A)(iii)(1) on account of such separation as if, at the time of such separation, the Issuer had made a distribution of the type referred to in such Section to all holders of the Common Stock, subject to

readjustment in accordance with such Section if such rights expire, terminate or are redeemed.

(G) Limitation on Effecting

Transactions Resulting in Certain Adjustments. The Issuer will not engage in or be a party to any transaction or event that would require the Conversion Rate to be adjusted pursuant to Section 5.05(A) or

Section 5.07 to an amount that would result in the Conversion Price per share of Common Stock being less than the par value of the Common Stock.

- 116 -

(H) Equitable Adjustments to Prices. Whenever any provision of this Indenture

requires the Issuer to calculate the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices, or any function thereof, over a period of multiple days (including to calculate an adjustment to the Conversion Rate), or to calculate the Daily Conversion Values or

Daily VWAPs over an Observation Period, the Issuer will make appropriate adjustments, if any, to such calculations to account for any adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 5.05(A), would have resulted in an

adjustment to the Conversion Rate that becomes effective, or any event that requires such an adjustment to the Conversion Rate where the Ex- Dividend Date, effective date or Expiration Date, as applicable, of

such event occurs, at any time during such period, or Observation Period, as applicable.

(I) Calculation of Number of Outstanding

Shares of Common Stock. For purposes of Section 5.05(A)Section 5.05(A), the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time will (i) include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued

in lieu of fractions of Common Stock; and (ii) exclude Common Stock held in the Issuer’s treasury (unless the Issuer pays any dividend or makes any distribution on Common Stock held in its treasury).

(J) Calculations. All calculations with respect to the Conversion Rate and adjustments thereto will be made, by the Issuer, to the

nearest 1/10,000th of a share of Common Stock (with 5/100,000ths rounded upward).

(K) Notice of Conversion Rate Adjustments. Upon

the effectiveness of any adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 5.05(A), the Issuer will promptly deliver notice to the Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent containing: (i) a brief description

of the transaction or other event on account of which such adjustment was made; (ii) the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after such adjustment; and (iii) the effective time of such adjustment. Failure to deliver such notice shall not

affect the legality or validity of any such adjustment.

Section 5.06. VOLUNTARY ADJUSTMENTS.

(A) Generally. To the extent permitted by law and applicable listing standards of The New York Stock Exchange (or any other securities

exchange on which the Common Stock (or other applicable security) is then listed), the Issuer, from time to time, may (but is not required to) increase the Conversion Rate by any amount if (i) the Board of Directors determines that such

increase is either (x) in the best interest of the Issuer; or (y) advisable to avoid or diminish any income tax imposed on holders of Common Stock or rights to purchase Common Stock as a result of any dividend or distribution of shares (or

rights to acquire shares) of Common Stock or any similar event; (ii) such increase is in effect for a period of at least twenty (20) Business Days; and (iii) subject to applicable law, such increase is irrevocable during such period.

(B) Notice of Voluntary Increases. If the Board of Directors determines to increase the Conversion Rate pursuant to

Section 5.06(A), then, no later than the first Business Day of the related twenty (20) Business Day period referred to in Section 5.06(A), the Issuer will deliver notice to each Holder, the

Trustee and the Conversion Agent of such increase, the amount thereof and the period during which such increase will be in effect.

- 117 -

Section 5.07. ADJUSTMENTS TO THE

CONVERSION RATE IN CONNECTION WITH A MAKE-WHOLE EVENT.

(A) Generally. If a Make-Whole Event Effective Date occurs prior to the Maturity Date and a Holder elects to convert its Notes in

connection with such Make-Whole Event, the Issuer shall, under the circumstances described below, increase the Conversion Rate for the Notes so surrendered for conversion by a number of additional shares of Common Stock (the “Additional

Shares”), as described below. A conversion of Notes shall be deemed for these purposes to be “in connection with” such Make-Whole Event if the relevant conversion notice is received by the Conversion Agent during the Make-Whole

Event Conversion Period. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Issuer elects to redeem less than all of the outstanding Notes, then Holders of the Notes not called for redemption will not be entitled to an increased Conversion Rate for such Notes as

provided in this Section 5.07 on account of such redemption.

(B) Upon surrender of Notes for conversion in

connection with a Make-Whole Event, the Issuer shall, at its option, satisfy the related conversion obligation by Physical Settlement, Cash Settlement or Combination Settlement in accordance with Section 5.03;

provided, however, that if, at the effective time of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change described in clause (b) of the definition of Fundamental Change that constitutes a Common Stock Change Event, the Reference Property following

such Make-Whole Fundamental Change is composed entirely of cash, for any conversion of Notes following the effective date of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Conversion Consideration shall be calculated based solely on the Stock Price for the

transaction and shall be deemed to be an amount of cash per $1,000 principal amount of converted Notes equal to the Conversion Rate on such Conversion Date (including any adjustment for Additional Shares), multiplied by such Stock Price for such

Make-Whole Fundamental Change. In such event, the Conversion Consideration shall be paid to Holders in cash on the second Business Day following the Conversion Date.

(C) The number of Additional Shares, if any, by which the Conversion Rate shall be increased for conversions during the Make-Whole Event

Conversion Period shall be determined by reference to the table below, based on the Make-Whole Event Effective Date and the price paid (or deemed to be paid) per share of the Common Stock in the Make-Whole Fundamental Change or on the Redemption

Notice Date in the manner set forth in this Section 5.07 (the “Stock Price”). If the holders of the Common Stock receive in exchange for their Common Stock only cash in a Make-Whole Fundamental Change

described in clause (b) of the definition of Fundamental Change, the Stock Price shall be the cash amount paid per share. In all other cases, the Stock Price shall be the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the

five consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Make-Whole Event Effective Date. In the event that a conversion during a Redemption would also be deemed to be in connection with a Make-Whole

Fundamental Change, a Holder of the Notes to be converted shall be entitled to a single increase to the Conversion Rate with respect to the first to occur of the applicable Make-Whole Event Effective Date, and the later event will be deemed not to

have occurred for purposes of this Section 5.07. The Issuer shall make appropriate adjustments to the Stock Price, in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner, to account for any adjustment to the Conversion Rate

that becomes effective, or any event requiring an adjustment to the Conversion Rate where the Ex-Dividend Date, effective date (as such term is used in Section 5.05) or expiration

date of the event occurs during such five consecutive Trading Day period.

- 118 -

(D) The Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table below shall be adjusted

as of any date on which the Conversion Rate is otherwise adjusted. The adjusted Stock Prices shall equal the Stock Prices applicable immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Conversion Rate

immediately prior to such adjustment giving rise to the Stock Price adjustment and the denominator of which is the Conversion Rate as so adjusted. The number of Additional Shares set forth in the table below shall be adjusted in the same manner and

at the same time as the Conversion Rate as set forth in Section 5.05.

(E) The following table sets forth the

number of Additional Shares of Common Stock by which the Conversion Rate shall be increased per $1,000 principal amount of Notes pursuant to this Section 5.07 for each Stock Price and Make-Whole Event Effective Date set

forth below:

The exact Stock Price and Make-Whole Event Effective Date may not be set forth in the table above, in which

case:

(i) if the Stock Price is between two Stock Prices in the table above or the Make-Whole Event Effective Date is

between two Make-Whole Event Effective Dates in the table, the number of Additional Shares by which the Conversion Rate will be increased shall be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the number of Additional Shares set forth for the

higher and lower Stock Prices and the earlier and later Make-Whole Event Effective Dates, based on a 365- or 366-day year, as applicable;

(ii) if the Stock Price is greater than $70.00 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Prices set

forth in the column headings of the table above pursuant to Section 5.07(E)), no Additional Shares shall be added to the Conversion Rate; and

(iii) if the Stock Price is less than $16.78 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Prices set forth

in the column headings of the table above pursuant to Section 5.07(E)), no Additional Shares shall be added to the Conversion Rate.

(F) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Conversion Rate per $1,000 principal amount of Notes exceed 59.5947 shares of Common

Stock, subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 5.05.

- 119 -

(G) Nothing in this Section 5.07 shall prevent an adjustment to

the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 5.05 in respect of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change.

(H) Notice of the

Occurrence of a Make-Whole Event. The Issuer will notify the Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent of each Make-Whole Event (i) occurring pursuant to clause (A) of the definition thereof; and (ii) occurring pursuant to

clause (B) of the definition thereof in accordance with Section 4.03(G).

(I) For the avoidance of

doubt, but subject to Section 4.03(K), (x) the sending of a Redemption Notice will constitute a Make-Whole Event only with respect to the Notes called for redemption pursuant to such Redemption Notice, and not with respect

to any other Notes; and (y) the Conversion Rate applicable to the Notes not so called for redemption will not be subject to increase pursuant to this Section 5.07 on account of such Redemption Notice.

Section 5.08. EXCHANGE IN LIEU OF CONVERSION.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 5, and subject to the terms of this Section 5.08, if

a Note is submitted for conversion, the Issuer may elect, in lieu of conversion, to transfer such Note to a financial institution designated by the Issuer and arrange to have such financial institution deliver to the Holder of such Note the

Conversion Consideration that would have been due upon conversion. To make such election, the Issuer must send notice of such election to the Holder of such Note, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent before the Close of Business on the Business Day

immediately following the Conversion Date for such Note. If the Issuer has made such election, then:

(A) no later than the Business Day

immediately following such Conversion Date, the Issuer must deliver (or cause the delivery of) such Note, together with delivery instructions for the Conversion Consideration due upon such conversion (including wire instructions, if applicable), to

a financial institution designated by the Issuer that has agreed to deliver such Conversion Consideration in the manner and at the time the Issuer would have had to deliver the same pursuant to this Article 5;

(B) if such Note is a Global Note, then (i) such designated institution will send written confirmation to the Conversion Agent promptly

after wiring the cash Conversion Consideration, if any, and delivering any other Conversion Consideration, due upon such conversion to the Holder of such Note; and (ii) the Conversion Agent will as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter

contact such Holder’s custodian with the Depositary to confirm receipt of the same; and

(C) such Note will not cease to be

outstanding by reason of such exchange in lieu of conversion, subject to the Depositary Procedures;

provided, however, that if such

financial institution does not accept such Note or fails to timely deliver such Conversion Consideration, then the Issuer will be responsible for delivering such Conversion Consideration in the manner and at the time provided in this Article

5 as if the Issuer had not elected to make an exchange in lieu of conversion. The Issuer, the Holder surrendering Notes for conversion, the designated institution and the Conversion Agent shall cooperate to cause such Notes to be delivered to

the designated institution and the Conversion Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon the Issuer’s instruction in connection with effecting any such exchange and shall have no liability for such election to exchange outside of its

control.

- 120 -

Section 5.09. EFFECT OF COMMON STOCK

CHANGE EVENT.

(A) Generally. If there occurs any:

(i) recapitalization, reclassification or change of the Common Stock (other than (x) changes solely resulting from a

subdivision or combination of the Common Stock, (y) a change only in par value or from par value to no par value or no par value to par value and (z) splits and combinations that do not involve the issuance of any other series or class of

securities);

(ii) consolidation, merger, combination or binding or statutory share exchange involving the Issuer;

(iii) sale, lease or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries, taken as a

whole, to any Person; or

(iv) other similar event,

and, as a result of which, the Common Stock is converted into, or exchanged for, or represents solely the right to receive, other securities, cash or other

property, or any combination of the foregoing (such an event, a “Common Stock Change Event,” and such other securities, cash or property, the “Reference Property,” and the amount and kind of Reference Property

that a holder of one (1) share of Common Stock would be entitled to receive on account of such Common Stock Change Event (without giving effect to any arrangement not to issue or deliver a fractional portion of any security or other property),

a “Reference Property Unit”), then the Issuer and the resulting, surviving or transferee person (if not the Issuer) of such Common Stock Change Event (the “Successor Person”), and, if applicable as set forth

below, the Underlying Issuer, will execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture, without the consent of the Holders, providing, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or the Notes, as follows:

(1) from and after the effective time of such Common Stock Change Event, (I) the Conversion Consideration due upon

conversion of any Note, and the conditions to any such conversion, will be determined in the same manner as if each reference to any number of shares of Common Stock in this Article 5 (or in any related definitions) were instead a reference

to the same number of Reference Property Units; (II) for purposes of Section 4.03, each reference to any number of shares of Common Stock in such Section (or in any related definitions) will instead be deemed to be a

reference to the same number of Reference Property Units; and (III) for purposes of the definitions of “Fundamental Change” and “Make-Whole Event,” references to Common Stock or to “Common Equity” will be

deemed to refer to the common equity (including depositary receipts representing common equity), if any, forming part of such Reference Property;

- 121 -

(2) if such Reference Property Unit consists entirely of cash, then the

Issuer will be deemed to elect Physical Settlement in respect of all conversions whose Conversion Date occurs on or after the effective date of such Common Stock Change Event and will pay the cash due upon such conversions no later than the second

(2nd) Business Day after the relevant Conversion Date;

(3) for these purposes, (I) the Daily VWAP of any Reference

Property Unit or portion thereof that consists of a class of common equity securities will be determined by reference to the definition of “Daily VWAP,” substituting, if applicable, the Bloomberg page for such class of securities in such

definition; and (II) the Daily VWAP of any Reference Property Unit or portion thereof that does not consist of a class of common equity securities, and the Last Reported Sale Price of any Reference Property Unit or portion thereof that does not

consist of a class of securities, will be the fair value of such Reference Property Unit or portion thereof, as applicable, determined in good faith by the Issuer (or, in the case of cash denominated in U.S. dollars, the face amount thereof); and

(4) if such Reference Property includes any shares of Equity Interests, then the Conversion Rate will be subject to

subsequent adjustments in a manner consistent with Section 5.05(A).

If the Reference Property consists of more

than a single type of consideration to be determined based in part upon any form of stockholder election, then the composition of the Reference Property Unit will be deemed to be the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration

actually received, per share of Common Stock, by the holders of the Common Stock. The Issuer will notify Holders of such weighted average as soon as practicable after such determination is made.

At or before the effective time of such Common Stock Change Event, the Issuer and the Successor Person will execute and deliver to the Trustee

a supplemental indenture pursuant to Section 8.01(E) as set forth above (which shall provide for anti-dilution and other adjustments that are as nearly equivalent as possible to the adjustments provided for in this

Article 5). If the Reference Property includes shares of stock or other securities or assets (other than cash) of a Person other than the Issuer or a Successor Person (such person, the “Underlying Issuer”), then such

Underlying Issuer will also execute such supplemental indenture, and such supplemental indenture shall contain such additional provisions to protect the interests of the Holders as the Issuer reasonably considers necessary by reason of the

foregoing, including the provisions providing for the purchase rights set forth in Section 4.02.

(B) Notice

of Common Stock Change Events. The Issuer will provide notice of each Common Stock Change Event to Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent no later than the effective date of such Common Stock Change Event.

(C) Compliance Covenant. The Issuer will not become a party to any Common Stock Change Event unless its terms are consistent with

this Section 5.09.

(D) The above provisions of this Section 5.09 shall similarly

apply to successive Common Stock Change Events.

- 122 -

Section 5.10. BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP LIMITATIONS.

(A) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, no Holder will be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock upon

conversion of Notes and no conversion of Notes shall take place to the extent (but only to the extent) that such receipt (or conversion) would cause such Holder and its Attribution Parties to beneficially own shares in excess of the Beneficial

Ownership Limitations. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any Notes

with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon (i) conversion of the remaining, unconverted principal amount of Notes beneficially owned by the Holder and

its Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Issuer subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein (including,

without limitation, any other Notes) beneficially owned by the Holder and its Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this provision, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with

Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. Any purported delivery of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Notes shall be void and have no effect to the extent (but only to the extent) that

such delivery would result in the converting Holder violating the Beneficial Ownership Limitations. Solely for the purpose of this Section 5.10, in the case of Global Notes, “Holder” shall mean a person that

holds a beneficial interest in the Notes and not the Depositary or its nominee. Further, “Attribution Parties” shall mean, with respect to any Person, any other Person acting as a “group” (as that term is defined in

Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder) together with such Person, and any other Persons to the extent such other Persons’ beneficial ownership (as defined in Rule

13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of Common Stock would be aggregated with such Person’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act.

(B) To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 5.10 applies, the determination of whether any Notes

are convertible (in relation to other securities beneficially owned by the Holder) and of which principal amount of such Notes are convertible shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a conversion notice shall be deemed

to be the Holder’s determination of whether any Notes may be converted (in relation to other securities beneficially owned by the Holder) and which principal amount such Notes are convertible, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership

Limitations. To ensure compliance with this restriction, the Holder shall be deemed to represent to the Issuer, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent each time it delivers a conversion notice that such conversion notice has not violated the

restrictions set forth in this Section 5.10, and none of the Issuer, the Trustee nor the Conversion Agent shall have any obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to

any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

(C) For purposes of this Section 5.10, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder

may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as stated in the most recent of the following: (i) the Issuer’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the SEC, as the case may be, (ii) a more recent public

announcement by the Issuer, or (iii) a more recent written notice by the Issuer or the Issuer’s transfer agent to such Holder setting

- 123 -

forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Issuer shall within two (2) Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to the Holder

the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Issuer, including the Notes, by the

Holder since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported.

(D) The “General Beneficial

Ownership Limitation” shall be 9.9% (or, upon written notice to the Issuer by a Holder on or prior to the Issue Date, 4.9%) of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of

Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any Notes held by the Holder. After the Issue Date, the Holder, upon not less than sixty-one (61) days’ prior written notice to the Issuer, may elect a

beneficial ownership limit as to such Holder (but not as to any other Holder) (such limit, a “Holder Beneficial Ownership Limitation” and together with the General Beneficial Ownership Limitation, the “Beneficial

Ownership Limitations”) that is less than or equal to the General Beneficial Ownership Limitation then applicable to the Holders. Any Holder Beneficial Ownership Limitation will be effective as of (i) the issue date for the Notes, for

any notice delivered prior to the issuance of such Notes, and (ii) the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Issuer in all other cases.

(E) Any Notes surrendered for conversion for which shares of Common Stock are not delivered due to the Beneficial Ownership Limitations shall

not be extinguished and, such Holder may either:

(F) request return of the Notes surrendered by such Holder for conversion, after which

the Issuer shall deliver such Notes to such Holder within two (2) Trading Days after receipt of such request; or

(G) certify to the

Issuer that the person (or persons) receiving shares of Common Stock upon conversion is not, and would not, as a result of such conversion, become the beneficial owner of shares of Common Stock outstanding at such time in excess of the applicable

Beneficial Ownership Limitations, after which the Issuer shall deliver any such shares of Common Stock withheld on account of such applicable Beneficial Ownership Limitations by the later of (x) the date such shares were otherwise due to such

person (or persons) and (y) two (2) Trading Days after receipt of such certification; provided, however, that until such time as the affected Holder gives such notice, no person shall be deemed to be the stockholder of record with

respect to the shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable upon conversion in excess of any applicable Beneficial Ownership Limitations. Upon delivery of such notice, the provisions under Section 5.03 shall apply to the

shares of Common Stock to be delivered pursuant to such notice.

(H) Under no circumstances shall the Trustee or the Conversion Agent have

any obligation to identify any beneficial owner of Common Stock, or otherwise make any determination, monitor or otherwise take any action with respect to the limitations set forth in this Section 5.10.

- 124 -

Section 5.11. RESPONSIBILITY OF TRUSTEE

AND CONVERSION AGENT.

The Trustee and the Conversion Agent shall not at any time be under

any duty or responsibility to any Holder to determine the Conversion Rate (or any adjustment thereto) or whether any facts exist that may require any adjustment (including any increase) of the Conversion Rate, or with respect to the nature or extent

or calculation of any such adjustment when made, or with respect to the method employed, or in the Indenture or in any supplemental indenture provided to be employed, in making the same. The Trustee and the Conversion Agent shall not be accountable

with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any shares of Common Stock, monitoring the Issuer’s stock trading price or of any securities, property or cash that may at any time be issued or delivered upon the conversion of

any Note; and the Trustee and the Conversion Agent make no representations with respect thereto. Neither the Trustee nor the Conversion Agent shall be responsible for any failure of the Issuer to issue, transfer or deliver any shares of Common Stock

or stock certificates or other securities or property or cash upon the surrender of any Note for the purpose of conversion or to comply with any of the duties, responsibilities or covenants of the Issuer contained in this Article 5. Without

limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither the Trustee nor the Conversion Agent shall be under any responsibility to (a) determine whether a supplemental indenture needs to be entered into or (b) determine the correctness of any

provisions contained in any supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to Section 5.09 relating either to the kind or amount of shares of stock or securities or property (including cash) receivable by Holders upon the

conversion of their Notes after any event referred to in such Section 5.09 or to any adjustment to be made with respect thereto, but, subject to the provisions of Section 13.02 of the Indenture,

may accept (without any independent investigation) as conclusive evidence of the correctness of any such provisions, and shall be protected in conclusively relying upon, the Officer’s Certificate (which the Issuer shall be obligated to deliver

to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent prior to the execution of any such supplemental indenture) with respect thereto. Neither the Trustee nor the Conversion Agent shall be responsible for determining whether any event contemplated by this

Article 5 has occurred that makes the Notes eligible for conversion or no longer eligible therefor until the Issuer has delivered to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent the notices referred to in this Article 5 with respect to the

commencement or termination of such conversion rights, on which notices the Trustee and the Conversion Agent may conclusively rely.

Article 6. SUCCESSORS

Section 6.01. WHEN THE ISSUER AND SUBSIDIARY GUARANTORS

MAY MERGE, ETC.

(A) Generally. The Issuer will not consolidate with, merge with or

into, dissolve or liquidate voluntarily into, or (directly, or indirectly through one or more of its Subsidiaries) sell, lease or otherwise Dispose, in one transaction or a series of transactions, all or substantially all of the consolidated assets

of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to another Person (a “Issuer Business Combination Event”), unless:

(i) the resulting, surviving or transferee Person either (x) is the Issuer or (y) if not the Issuer, is a Qualified

Successor Entity (such Qualified Successor Entity, the “Successor Entity”) duly organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia that expressly assumes (by

- 125 -

executing and delivering to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent, at or before the effective time of such Issuer Business Combination Event, a supplemental indenture pursuant to

Section 8.01(D)) and any other amendments to the Security Documents all of the Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture, the Security Documents to which the Issuer is a party, and the Notes;

(ii) immediately after giving effect to such Issuer Business Combination Event, no Default or Event of Default will have

occurred and be continuing; and

(iii) before the effective time of any Issuer Business Combination Event, the Issuer will

deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel, each stating that (i) such Issuer Business Combination Event (and, if applicable, the related supplemental indenture) comply with

Section 6.01(A); and (ii) all conditions precedent to such Issuer Business Combination Event provided in this Indenture have been satisfied.

(B) Subsidiary Guarantors. Unless otherwise permitted pursuant to this Indenture (including Section 12.04),

the Issuer shall not permit any Subsidiary Guarantor to consolidate with or merge with or into, dissolve or liquidate voluntarily into, or (directly, or indirectly through one or more of its Subsidiaries) sell, lease or otherwise Dispose, in one

transaction or a series of transactions, all or substantially all of the consolidated assets (other than to the Issuer or another Subsidiary Guarantor) (a “Guarantor Business Combination Event” together with a Issuer Business

Combination Event, a “Business Combination Event”) unless:

(i) the resulting, surviving or transferee

Person (the “Successor Guarantor”) either (x) is the Subsidiary Guarantor or (y) if not the Subsidiary Guarantor, is an entity that expressly assumes (by executing and delivering to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent,

at or before the effective time of such Guarantor Business Combination Event, a supplemental indenture pursuant to Section 8.01(B)) and any other amendments to the Security Documents all of such Subsidiary Guarantor’s

obligations under this Indenture, the Security Documents to which it is a party, the Notes and its Guarantee;

(ii)

immediately after giving effect to such Guarantor Business Combination Event, no Default or Event of Default will have occurred and be continuing; and

(iii) before the effective time of any Guarantor Business Combination Event, the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantor, as

applicable, will deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel, each stating that (i) such Guarantor Business Combination Event (and, if applicable, the related supplemental indenture) comply with

Section 6.01(B); and (ii) all conditions precedent to such Guarantor Business Combination Event provided in this Indenture have been satisfied.

(C) For purposes of this Section 6.01, the sale, conveyance, transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the

properties and assets of one or more Subsidiaries of the Issuer to another Person, which properties and assets, if held by the Issuer instead of such Subsidiaries, would constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Issuer

on a consolidated basis, shall be deemed to be the sale, conveyance, transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Issuer to another Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Article 6 shall not

apply to any sale, conveyance, transfer or lease of assets between or among the Issuer and its Wholly Owned Subsidiaries and, in such an event, the Issuer shall not be discharged from its obligations under this Indenture, the Security Documents to

which the Issuer is a party, and the Notes.

- 126 -

Section 6.02. SUCCESSOR ENTITY SUBSTITUTED.

At the effective time of any Business Combination Event that complies with Section 6.01, the Successor Entity (if not

the Issuer) or the Successor Guarantor (if not the applicable Subsidiary Guarantor), as the case may be, will succeed to, and may exercise every right and power of, the Issuer or the Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, under this Indenture,

the Security Documents, the Notes and/or Guarantee, as is applicable, with the same effect as if such Successor Entity or Successor Guarantor, as the case may be, had been named as the Issuer or Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, in this

Indenture, the Security Documents, the Notes and such Guarantee; provided that in the case of a lease, the predecessor Issuer will be discharged from its obligations under this Indenture and the Notes.

Article 7. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

Section 7.01. EVENTS OF DEFAULT.

(A) Definition of Events of Default. “Event of Default” means the occurrence of any of the following:

(i) a default in the payment when due (whether at maturity, upon Redemption or Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change or otherwise)

of the principal of, or the Redemption Price or Fundamental Change Repurchase Price for, any Note;

(ii) a default in the

payment when due of interest on any Note, which default continues for thirty (30) consecutive days;

(iii) the

Issuer’s failure to deliver, when required by this Indenture, a Fundamental Change Notice, and such failure is not cured within five (5) Business Days after its occurrence;

(iv) [Reserved];

(v) a default in the Issuer’s obligation to convert a Note in accordance with Article 5 upon the exercise

of the conversion right with respect thereto, if such default is not cured within five (5) Business Days after its occurrence;

(vi) a default in any Note Party’s obligations under Article 6;

(vii) [Reserved];

(viii) a default in any of the Note Parties’ obligations or agreements under the Note Documents (other than a default set

forth in clause (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v) or (vi) of this Section 7.01(A)) where such default is not cured or waived within thirty (30) days

- 127 -

after notice to the Issuer by the Trustee, or to the Issuer and the Trustee by Holders of at least twenty five percent (25%) of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, which

notice must specify such default, demand that it be remedied and state that such notice is a “Notice of Default,” provided that any issuance of Common Stock as a result of which any Holder beneficially owns or would beneficially

own a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitations shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default;

(ix) a default by a Note Party or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to indebtedness for money borrowed (whether pursuant to

one or more agreements or other instruments) of greater than $87,500,000 (or its foreign currency equivalent) in the aggregate of an Note Party or any of its Subsidiaries, whether such indebtedness exists as of the Issue Date or is thereafter

created, either: (x) resulting in such indebtedness becoming or being declared due and payable prior to its stated maturity, or (y) constituting a failure to pay the principal of any such indebtedness when due and payable (after the

expiration of all applicable grace periods) at its stated maturity, upon required repurchase, upon declaration or otherwise, and, in the case of either subclause (x) or (y), such acceleration is not, after the

expiration of any applicable grace period, rescinded or annulled or such indebtedness is not paid or discharged, as the case may be, within thirty (30) days after notice to the Issuer by the Trustee or to the Issuer and the Trustee by Holders

of at least twenty five percent (25%) of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding in accordance with this Indenture;

(x) one or more final judgments being rendered against an Note Party or any of its Subsidiaries for the payment of at least

$87,500,000 (or its foreign currency equivalent) in the aggregate (excluding any amounts covered by insurance), where such judgment is not discharged or stayed within sixty (60) days after (i) the date on which the right to appeal the same

has expired, if no such appeal has commenced; or (ii) the date on which all rights to appeal have been extinguished;

(xi) a Note Party or any of its Significant Subsidiaries (or multiple Subsidiaries which, when taken together, would constitute

a Significant Subsidiary), pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law, either:

(1) commences a voluntary case

or proceeding;

(2) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case or proceeding;

(3) consents to the appointment of a custodian of it or for any substantial part of its property (other than that arises from

any solvent liquidation or restructuring of such Subsidiary(ies) in the ordinary course of business that shall result in the net assets of such Subsidiary(ies) being transferred to or otherwise vested in such Note Party or any of its other

subsidiaries on a pro rata basis or on a basis more favorable to such Note Party);

(4) makes a general assignment for the

benefit of its creditors;

- 128 -

(5) takes any comparable action under any foreign Bankruptcy Law; or

(6) generally is not paying its debts as they become due;

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

(1) is for relief against a Note Party or any of its Significant Subsidiaries (or multiple Subsidiaries which, when taken

together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary) in an involuntary case or proceeding;

(2) appoints a custodian of a

Note Party or any of its Significant Subsidiaries, or for any substantial part of the property of a Note Party or any of its Significant Subsidiaries (or multiple Subsidiaries which, when taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary);

(3) orders the winding up or liquidation of a Note Party or any of its Significant Subsidiaries (or multiple Subsidiaries

which, when taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary); or

Bankruptcy Law,

(5) and, in each case under this Section 7.01(A)(xii), such order or decree

remains unstayed and in effect for at least sixty (60) days;

(xiii) if the obligation of any Subsidiary Guarantor

under its Guarantee or any other Note Document to which any Subsidiary Guarantor is a party is limited or terminated by operation of law or by such Subsidiary Guarantor (other than, in each case, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture or

such other Note Documents), or if any Subsidiary Guarantor fails to perform any obligation under its Guarantee or under any such Note Document, or repudiates or revokes or purports to repudiate or revoke in writing any obligation under its

Guarantee, or under any such Note Document, or any Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to exist for any reason (other than as permitted or not prohibited by this Indenture); or

(xiv) any security interest and Liens purported to be created by any Security Document on any of the Collateral intended to be

covered thereby having a fair market value in excess of $25,000,000 (unless perfection is not required by this Indenture or the Security Documents) shall cease to be in full force and effect or shall cease to give the Collateral Agent, for the

benefit of the Secured Parties, the Liens, rights, powers and privileges purported to be created and granted under such Security Documents (including a valid and perfected security interest in and Lien on all of the Collateral thereunder in favor of

the Collateral Agent with the priority required by the Security Documents) with respect to any of the Collateral intended to be covered thereby having a fair market value in excess of $25,000,000 (unless perfection is not required by this Indenture

or the Security Documents), or shall be asserted by or on behalf of any Note Party not to be a valid and perfected security interest in or Lien on the Collateral covered thereby (in each case, except (i) the failure of the Collateral Agent to

maintain possession of possessory Collateral

- 129 -

received by it, which failure is not a direct result of any act, omission, advice or direction of any Note Party, (ii) in connection with a transaction expressly permitted under the Note

Documents, in each case solely to the extent such termination or release is permitted under the Note Documents or (iii) as a result of the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture in accordance Article 9).

(B) Cause Irrelevant. Each of the events set forth in Section 7.01(A) will constitute an Event of Default

regardless of the cause thereof or whether voluntary or involuntary or effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body.

Section 7.02. ACCELERATION.

(A) Automatic Acceleration in Certain Circumstances. If an Event of Default set forth in Section 7.01(A)(xi)

or 7.01(A)(xii) occurs with respect to the Issuer (and not solely with respect to a Significant Subsidiary (or multiple Subsidiaries which, when taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary) of the Issuer), then the principal

amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the Notes then outstanding will immediately become due and payable without any further action or notice by any Person.

(B) Optional Acceleration. Subject to Section 7.03, if an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default

set forth in Section 7.01(A)(xi) or 7.01(A)(xii) with respect to the Issuer and not solely with respect to a Significant Subsidiary (or multiple Subsidiaries which, when taken together, would constitute a Significant

Subsidiary) of the Issuer) occurs and is continuing, then either (i) the Trustee, by notice to the Issuer, or (ii) Holders of at least twenty five percent (25%) of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, by notice to each

of the Issuer, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent, may declare the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the Notes then outstanding (subject to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent being indemnified and/or secured

and/or pre-funded to such Agent’s reasonable satisfaction) to become due and payable immediately. For the avoidance of doubt, if such Event of Default is not continuing at the time such notice is

provided (that is, such Event of Default has been cured or waived as of such time), then such notice will not be effective to cause such amounts to become due and payable immediately.

(C) Rescission of Acceleration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or the other Note Documents, the Majority

Holders, by notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, may, on behalf of all Holders, rescind any acceleration of the Notes and its consequences if (i) such rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent

jurisdiction; (ii) all existing Events of Default (except the non-payment of principal of, or interest on, the Notes that has become due solely because of such acceleration) have been cured or waived; and

(iii) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee under this Indenture and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent and their agents and counsel have been paid. No such rescission

will affect any subsequent Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

- 130 -

Section 7.03. SOLE REMEDY FOR A

FAILURE TO REPORT.

(A) Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture or in the Notes to the

contrary, to the extent the Issuer elects, the sole remedy for an Event of Default relating to the Issuer’s failure to comply with its obligations as set forth in Section 3.03(A) shall, for the first 180 days after

the occurrence of such an Event of Default, consist exclusively of the right to receive Special Interest on the Notes at a rate equal to 0.25% per annum of the principal amount of the Notes outstanding for the first 90 days during which such Event

of Default is continuing, beginning on, and including, the date on which such an Event of Default first occurs and 0.50% per annum of the principal amount of the Notes outstanding for each day during the next 90 day period during which such Event of

Default is continuing; provided, however, that in no event will Special Interest, together with any Additional Interest (excluding any interest that accrues on any Deferred Additional Interest pursuant to

Section 3.05(C)) that accrues as a result of the Issuer’s failure to timely file any document or report that it is required to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as applicable

(other than current reports on Form 8-K), accrue on any day on a Note at a combined rate per annum that exceeds one half of one percent (0.50%), regardless of the number of events or circumstances giving rise

to the requirement to pay such Special Interest or Additional Interest. If the Issuer so elects, such Special Interest shall be payable in the same manner and on the same dates as the stated interest payable on the Notes. On the 181st day after such

Event of Default (if the Event of Default relating to the Issuer’s failure to file is not cured or waived prior to such 181st day), the Notes shall be immediately subject to acceleration as provided in Section 7.02.

The provisions of this Section 7.03 will not affect the rights of Holders of Notes in the event of the occurrence of any Event of Default other than the Issuer’s failure to comply with its obligations as set forth in

Section 3.03(A). In the event the Issuer does not elect to pay Special Interest following an Event of Default in accordance with this Section 7.03 or the Issuer elected to make such payment but

does not pay the Special Interest when due, the Notes shall be immediately subject to acceleration as provided in Section 7.02.

(B) In order to elect to pay Special Interest as the sole remedy during the first 180 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default

described in the immediately preceding paragraph, the Issuer must notify all Holders of the Notes and the Trustee of such election prior to the beginning of such 180-day period. Upon the failure to timely give

such notice, the Notes shall be immediately subject to acceleration as provided in Section 7.02.

(C) If Special

Interest accrues on any Note, then, no later than five (5) Business Days before each date on which such Special Interest is to be paid, the Issuer will deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee and the Paying Agent stating

(i) that the Issuer is obligated to pay Special Interest on such Note on such date of payment; and (ii) the amount of Special Interest that is payable on such date of payment. The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall have no duty to

determine whether any Special Interest is payable or the amount thereof.

Section 7.04. OTHER REMEDIES.

(A) Trustee May Pursue All Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, then the Trustee may pursue any available remedy

to collect the payment of any amounts due with respect to the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of this Indenture or the Notes.

- 131 -

(B) Procedural Matters. The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not

possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in such proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder in exercising any right or remedy following an Event of Default will not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver

of, or acquiescence in, such Event of Default. All powers and remedies given by this Article 7 to the Trustee or to the Holders shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and not exclusive of any thereof or of any other powers and

remedies available to the Trustee or the Holders, by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to enforce the performance or observance of the covenants and agreements contained in this Indenture.

Section 7.05. WAIVER OF PAST DEFAULTS.

A Default that is (or, after notice, passage of time or both, would be) an Event of Default pursuant to clause (i), (ii),

(v) or (viii) of Section 7.01(A) (that, in the case of clause (viii) only, results from a Default under any covenant that cannot be amended without the consent of each affected Holder), can be

waived only with the consent of each affected Holder. Each other Default or Event of Default may be waived, on behalf of all Holders, by the Majority Holders. If an Event of Default is so waived, then it will cease to exist. If a Default is so

waived, then it will be deemed to be cured and any Event of Default arising therefrom will be deemed not to occur. However, no such waiver will extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right arising therefrom.

Section 7.06. [RESERVED].

Section 7.07. CONTROL BY MAJORITY.

Majority Holders may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or the

Collateral Agent or exercising any trust or power conferred on it under this Indenture. However, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law, this Indenture or the Notes, or that, subject to

Section 10.01, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders (provided, however, that neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall have any

affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not any such direction would prejudice any Holder) or may involve the Trustee or the Collateral Agent in liability, unless the Trustee or the Collateral Agent is offered security and indemnity reasonably

satisfactory to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, against any loss, liability or expense to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent that may result from the Trustee’s or the Collateral Agent’s following such direction.

Section 7.08. LIMITATION ON SUITS.

No Holder may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes (except to enforce (x) its rights to receive the principal of,

or the Redemption Price or Fundamental Change Repurchase Price for, or interest on, any Notes; or (y) the Issuer’s obligations to convert any Notes pursuant to Article 5), unless:

(A) such Holder has previously delivered to the Trustee notice that an Event of Default is continuing;

- 132 -

(B) Holders of at least twenty five percent (25%) in aggregate principal amount of the Notes

then outstanding deliver a request to the Trustee to pursue such remedy;

(C) such Holder or Holders offer and, if requested, provide to

the Trustee security and indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense to the Trustee that may result from the Trustee’s following such request;

(D) the Trustee does not comply with such request within sixty (60) calendar days after its receipt of such request and such offer of

security or indemnity; and

(E) during such sixty (60) calendar day period, the Majority Holders do not deliver to the Trustee a

direction that is inconsistent with such request.

A Holder of a Note may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder

or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder. The Trustee will have no duty to determine whether any Holder’s use of this Indenture complies with the preceding sentence.

Section 7.09. ABSOLUTE RIGHT OF HOLDERS TO INSTITUTE

SUIT FOR THE ENFORCEMENT OF THE RIGHT TO RECEIVE PAYMENT AND

CONVERSION.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or the Notes (but without limiting

Section 8.01), the right of each Holder of a Note to bring suit for the enforcement of any payment or delivery, as applicable, of the principal of, or the Redemption Price or Fundamental Change Repurchase Price for, or any

interest on, or the Conversion Consideration due pursuant to Article 5 upon conversion of, such Note on or after the respective due dates therefor provided in this Indenture and the Notes, will not be impaired or affected without the consent

of such Holder.

Section 7.10. COLLECTION BY TRUSTEE.

The Trustee will have the right, upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default pursuant to clause (i), (ii) or

(iv) of Section 7.01(A), to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer for the total unpaid or undelivered principal of, or Redemption Price or Fundamental Change

Repurchase Price for, or interest on, or Conversion Consideration due pursuant to Article 5 upon conversion of, the Notes, as applicable, and, to the extent lawful, any Default Interest on any Defaulted Amounts, and such further amounts

sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including compensation provided for in Section 10.06.

Section 7.11. [RESERVED].

Section 7.12. TRUSTEE MAY FILE PROOFS OF CLAIM.

The Trustee has the right to (A) file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have

the claims of the Trustee and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Notes) or its creditors or property and (B) collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable

or deliverable on any such claims. Each Holder authorizes any custodian in such proceeding to make such payments to the Trustee, and, if the Trustee consents to the making of such payments

- 133 -

directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to the Trustee for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, and its agents and counsel, and

any other amounts payable to the Trustee pursuant to Section 10.06. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements, advances and other amounts out of the estate in such proceeding, is

denied for any reason, payment of the same will be secured by a lien on, and will be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding (whether in

liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise). Nothing in this Indenture will be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize, consent to, accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization,

arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

Section 7.13. [RESERVED].

Section 7.14. SUMS RECEIVED BY DEBTORS AND

THIRD-PARTY SECURITY PROVIDERS.

Without prejudice to

Section 7.12, if the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor receives or recovers any sum which, under the terms of any of the Note Documents, should have been paid to the Collateral Agent, the Issuer or that Subsidiary

Guarantor will:

(a) hold an amount of that receipt or recovery equal to the relevant Note Obligations (or, if less, the amount received

or recovered) on trust for (or otherwise on behalf and for the account of) the Collateral Agent and promptly pay that amount to the Collateral Agent (or as the Collateral Agent may direct) for application in accordance with the terms of this

Indenture; and

(b) promptly pay an amount equal to the amount (if any) by which the receipt or recovery exceeds the relevant Note

Obligations to the Collateral Agent (or as the Collateral Agent may direct) for application in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.

Section 7.15. PRIORITIES.

Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements, the Collateral Agent and Trustee (acting in any capacity) will pay or deliver in the

following order any money or other property that it collects pursuant to this Article 7:

First:

Third:

direct.

The Trustee (acting in any capacity) may fix a record date and payment date for any payment or delivery to the

Holders pursuant to this Section 7.15, in which case the Trustee will instruct the Issuer to, and the Issuer will, deliver, at least fifteen (15) calendar days before such record date, to each Holder and the Trustee a

Section 8.02. WITH THE CONSENT OF HOLDERS.

(A) Generally. Subject to Sections 8.01, 7.05 and 7.09, the immediately following sentence and the terms of

the Intercreditor Agreements, the Issuer, the Trustee and, if required, the Collateral Agent may, with the consent of the Majority Holders, amend or supplement the Note Documents or waive compliance with any provision of the Note Documents.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing sentence, but subject to Section 8.01 and the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements, without the consent of each affected Holder, no amendment or supplement to the

Note Documents, or waiver of any provision of the Note Documents, may:

(i) reduce the principal, or extend the stated

maturity, of any Note;

(ii) reduce the Redemption Price or Fundamental Change Repurchase Price for any Note or change the

times at which, or the circumstances under which, the Notes may or will be redeemed or repurchased by the Issuer;

(iv) of this Section 8.02(A), no amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes, or waiver of any provision of this

- 138 -

Indenture or the Notes, may change the amount or type of consideration due on any Note (whether on an Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Fundamental Change Repurchase Date or the Maturity

Date or upon conversion, or otherwise), or the date(s) or time(s) such consideration is payable or deliverable, as applicable, without the consent of each affected Holder.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, without the consent of the Supermajority Holders, no amendment or supplement to the Note

the execution by such Subsidiary Guarantor.

Section 8.03. [RESERVED].

Section 8.04. NOTICE OF AMENDMENTS, SUPPLEMENTS AND WAIVERS.

As soon as reasonably practicable after any amendment, supplement or waiver pursuant to Section 8.01 or

8.02 becomes effective, the Issuer will send to the Holders and the Trustee notice that (A) describes the substance of such amendment, supplement or waiver in reasonable detail and (B) states the effective date thereof;

provided, however, that the Issuer will not be required to provide such notice to the Holders if such amendment, supplement or waiver is included in a periodic or current report filed by the Issuer with the SEC within four

(4) Business Days of its effectiveness. The failure to send, or the existence of any defect in, such notice will not impair or affect the validity of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

Section 8.05. REVOCATION, EFFECT AND SOLICITATION OF

CONSENTS; SPECIAL RECORD DATES; ETC.

(A) Revocation and

Effect of Consents. The consent of a Holder of a Note to an amendment, supplement or waiver will bind (and constitute the consent of) each subsequent Holder of any Note to the extent the same evidences any portion of the same indebtedness as the

consenting Holder’s Note, subject to the right of any Holder of a Note to revoke (if not prohibited pursuant to Section 8.05(B)) any such consent with respect to such Note by delivering notice of revocation to the

Trustee before the time such amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective.

- 139 -

(B) Special Record Dates. The Issuer may, but is not required to, fix a record date

for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent or take any other action in connection with any amendment, supplement or waiver pursuant to this Article 8. If a record date is fixed, then, notwithstanding anything to the

contrary in Section 8.05(A), only Persons who are Holders as of such record date (or their duly designated proxies) will be entitled to give such consent, to revoke any consent previously given or to take any such action,

regardless of whether such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date; provided, however, that no such consent will be valid or effective for more than one hundred and twenty (120) calendar days after such record date.

(C) Solicitation of Consents. For the avoidance of doubt, each reference in this Indenture or the Notes to the consent of a Holder

will be deemed to include any such consent obtained in connection with a repurchase of, or tender or exchange offer for, any Notes.

(D)

Effectiveness and Binding Effect. Each amendment or supplement to this Indenture, or waiver of any Default, Event of Default or compliance with any provision of this Indenture, will become effective in accordance with its terms and, when it

becomes effective with respect to any Note (or any portion thereof), will thereafter bind every Holder of such Note (or such portion).

Section 8.06. NOTATIONS AND EXCHANGES.

If any amendment, supplement or waiver changes the terms of a Note, then the Trustee or the Issuer may, in its discretion, require the Holder

of such Note to deliver such Note to the Trustee so that the Trustee may place an appropriate notation prepared by the Issuer on such Note and return such Note to such Holder. Alternatively, at its discretion, the Issuer may, in exchange for such

Note, issue, execute and deliver, and the Trustee will authenticate, in each case in accordance with Section 2.02, a new Note that reflects the changed terms. The failure to make any appropriate notation or issue a new Note

pursuant to this Section 8.06 will not impair or affect the validity of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

Section 8.07. TRUSTEE AND COLLATERAL AGENT TO EXECUTE

SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES.

The Trustee and/or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, will execute and

deliver any amendment or supplement to the Note Documents authorized pursuant to this Article 8, provided, however, that the Trustee and/or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, need not (but may, in their respective sole

and absolute discretion) execute or deliver any such amendment or supplement to the Note Documents that adversely affects the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee and/or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be. In executing any

amendment or supplement to the Note Documents, the Trustee and/or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be will be entitled to receive, and (subject to Sections 10.01 and 10.02) will be fully protected in relying on, an Officer’s

Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, provided in accordance with Section 13.02 and in addition to the documents delivered pursuant to Section 13.03, each stating that (A) the execution and

delivery of such amendment or supplement to the Note Documents is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and the other applicable Note Documents; and (B) in the case of the Opinion of Counsel, such amendment or supplement to the Note

Documents is valid, binding and enforceable against the Issuer in accordance with its terms. Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes will be set forth in an amended or supplemental indenture.

Article 9. SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE; DEFEASANCE

Section 9.01. TERMINATION OF ISSUER’S OBLIGATIONS.

(A) Discharge. This Indenture will be discharged, and will cease to be of further effect as to all Notes issued under

this Indenture, when:

(i) all Notes then outstanding (other than Notes replaced pursuant to

Section 2.13) have (i) been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or (ii) become due and payable (whether on a Redemption Date, a Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, the Maturity Date, upon conversion or

otherwise) for an amount of cash or Conversion Consideration, as applicable, that has been fixed;

(ii) the Issuer or any

Subsidiary Guarantor has caused there to be irrevocably deposited with the Trustee, or with the Paying Agent (or, with respect to Conversion Consideration, the Conversion Agent), in each case for the benefit of the Holders, or has otherwise caused

there to be delivered to the Holders, cash (or, with respect to Notes to be converted, Conversion Consideration) sufficient to satisfy all amounts or other property due on all Notes then outstanding (other than Notes replaced pursuant to

Section 2.13);

(iii) the Issuer has performed all other Note Obligations by it under this

Indenture; and

(iv) the Issuer has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel,

each stating that the conditions precedent to the discharge of this Indenture have been satisfied;

provided, however, that Article

10 and Section 11.01 will survive such discharge and, until no Notes remain outstanding, Section 2.15 and the obligations of the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Conversion Agent with respect

to money or other property deposited with them will survive such discharge.

At the Issuer’s written request, the Trustee will

acknowledge the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

(B) Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance.

(i) The Issuer may at any time terminate:

(1) all of the Note Parties’ obligations under the Notes and this Indenture with respect to the Note Parties

(“Legal Defeasance Option”), and

(2) the Note Parties’ obligations under Sections 3.03,

3.06, 3.11, 3.12, 3.13, 3.14, 3.15, 3.16, 3.17, 3.18, 3.19 and 3.20, Article 6, and Sections 7.01(A)(vi), 7.01(A)(viii), 7.01(A)(ix),

7.01(A)(x) and 7.01(A)(xiii) (“Covenant Defeasance Option”).

- 141 -

(ii) The Issuer may exercise its Legal Defeasance Option notwithstanding its

prior exercise of its Covenant Defeasance Option. In the event that the Issuer terminates all of its obligations under the Notes and this Indenture (with respect to such Notes) by exercising its Legal Defeasance Option or its Covenant Defeasance

Option, the obligations of the Issuer and each Subsidiary Guarantor with respect to the Security Documents shall be terminated simultaneously with the termination of such obligation.

(iii) If the Issuer exercises its Legal Defeasance Option, payment of the Notes so defeased may not be accelerated because of

an Event of Default. If the Issuer exercises its Covenant Defeasance Option, payment of the Notes so defeased may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in Sections 7.01(A)(vi), 7.01(A)(viii),

7.01(A)(ix), 7.01(A)(x) or 7.01(A)(xiii).

(iv) The Issuer may exercise its Legal Defeasance Option

or its Covenant Defeasance Option only if:

(1) the Issuer irrevocably deposits in trust with the Trustee cash in U.S.

Dollars sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes when due at maturity or redemption, as the case may be;

(2) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee a certificate from a nationally recognized firm of independent accountants, investment

bank or financial advisory firm expressing their opinion that the payments of principal and interest when due and without reinvestment on any deposited money without investment will provide cash at such times and in such amounts as will be

sufficient to pay principal, and interest when due on all the Notes to maturity or redemption, as the case may be;

(3) no

Default specified in Section 7.01(A)(xi) or 7.01(A)(xii) with respect to the Issuer shall have occurred or is continuing on the date of such deposit;

(4) the deposit does not constitute a default under any other material agreement or instrument binding on the Issuer;

(5) in the case of the Legal Defeasance Option, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating

that (1) the Issuer has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (2) since the date of this Indenture there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law, in either case to

the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the beneficial owners of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and defeasance and will be

subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Opinion of Counsel required by the

immediately preceding sentence with respect to a legal defeasance need not be delivered if all of the Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (x) have become due and payable or (y) will become due and payable at

their maturity date within one year under arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Issuer;

- 142 -

(6) such exercise does not impair the right of any Holder to receive payment

of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Holder’s Notes on or after the due dates therefore or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Notes;

(7) in the case of the Covenant Defeasance Option, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the

effect that the Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same

times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred;

(8) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee

an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to the defeasance of the Notes to be so defeased as contemplated by this Section 9.01(B) have been complied with; and

(9) before or after a deposit, the Issuer may make arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee for the redemption of

such Notes at a future date in accordance with Article 4.

(v) Article 10 and

Section 11.01 will survive any defeasance and, until no Notes remain outstanding, Section 2.15 and the obligations of the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Conversion Agent with respect to money or

other property deposited with them will survive such defeasance.

(vi) At the Issuer’s written request, the Trustee

will acknowledge the defeasance of those obligations that the Issuer terminates.

Section 9.02. APPLICATION OF

TRUST MONEY.

The Trustee shall hold in trust money (including proceeds thereof) deposited with it

pursuant to this Article 9. The Trustee shall apply the deposited money through each Paying Agent and in accordance with this Indenture to the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes so discharged or defeased.

Section 9.03. REPAYMENT TO ISSUER.

Subject to applicable unclaimed property law, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Conversion Agent will promptly notify the Issuer if there

exists (and, at the Issuer’s request, promptly deliver to the Issuer) any cash, Conversion Consideration or other property held by any of them for payment or delivery on the Notes that remain unclaimed two (2) years after the date on

which such payment or delivery was due. After such delivery to the Issuer, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Conversion Agent will have no further liability to any Holder with respect to such cash, Conversion Consideration or other property, and

Holders entitled to the payment or delivery of such cash, Conversion Consideration or other property must look to the Issuer for payment as a general creditor of the Issuer.

- 143 -

Section 9.04. REINSTATEMENT.

If the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Conversion Agent is unable to apply any cash or other property deposited with it pursuant to

Section 9.01 because of any legal proceeding or any order or judgment of any court or other governmental authority that enjoins, restrains or otherwise prohibits such application, then the discharge of this Indenture

pursuant to Section 9.01 will be rescinded; provided, however, that if the Issuer thereafter pays or delivers any cash or other property due on the Notes to the Holders thereof, then the Issuer will be

subrogated to the rights of such Holders to receive such cash or other property from the cash or other property, if any, held by the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Conversion Agent, as applicable.

Article 10. TRUSTEE

Section 10.01. DUTIES OF THE TRUSTEE.

(A) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee will exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this

Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs.

(B) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:

(i) the duties of the Trustee will be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture, and the Trustee need

perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others, and no implied covenants or obligations will be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

(ii) in the absence of bad faith or willful misconduct on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the

statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon Officer’s Certificates or Opinions of Counsel that are provided to the Trustee and conform to the requirements of this Indenture. However, the Trustee will examine the

certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

(C) The Trustee may not be

relieved from liabilities for its negligent action or negligent failure to act or willful misconduct, except that:

(i)

this paragraph will not limit the effect of Section 10.01(B);

(ii) the Trustee will not be

liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

(iii) the Trustee will not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a

direction received by it pursuant to Section 7.07.

- 144 -

paragraphs (A), (B) and (C) of this Section 10.01, regardless of whether such provision so expressly provides.

(E) No provision of this Indenture will require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or incur any liability.

(F) The Trustee will not be liable for interest on any money received by it, except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Issuer. Money

held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds, except to the extent required by law.

Section 10.02. RIGHTS

OF THE TRUSTEE.

(A) The Trustee may conclusively rely on any resolution, certificate,

statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, judgment, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document that it believes to be genuine and signed or presented by the proper

Person, and the Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in such document.

(B) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from

acting, it may require an Officer’s Certificate, an Opinion of Counsel or both. The Trustee will not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. The

Trustee may consult with counsel; and the advice of such counsel, or any Opinion of Counsel, will constitute full and complete authorization of the Trustee to take or omit to take any action in good faith in reliance thereon without liability.

(C) The Trustee may act through its attorneys and agents and will not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any such agent

appointed with due care.

(D) The Trustee will not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith and that it believes

to be authorized or within the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture.

(E) Unless otherwise specifically provided in this

Indenture, any demand, request, direction or notice from the Issuer will be sufficient if signed by an Officer of the Issuer.

(F) The

Trustee need not exercise any rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any Holder unless such Holder has offered the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss,

liability or expense that it may incur in complying with such request or direction.

(G) The Trustee will not be responsible or liable for

any punitive, special, indirect or consequential loss or damage (including lost profits), even if the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

(H) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including its right to be indemnified, are extended to,

and will be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities under this Indenture (including in its capacity as Conversion Agent), the Collateral Agent and each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act under this Indenture,

- 145 -

including the Conversion Agent; provided, however, that (i) the Collateral Agent and each other agent, custodian, and other Person employed to act under this Indenture shall be liable

only to the extent of its gross negligence or willful misconduct and (ii) in and during an Event of Default, only the Trustee (in its capacity as such) and not any other Agent (including for the avoidance of doubt, the Collateral Agent) shall

be subject to the prudent person standard.

(I) The permissive rights of the Trustee enumerated in this Indenture will not be construed as

duties.

(J) Neither the Trustee nor the Registrar will have any obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with

any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any transfers between or among Depositary Participants, members of the Depositary or owners of

beneficial interests in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the terms of this Indenture, and to

examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements of this Indenture.

(K) Except with respect

to receipt of payments of principal and interest on the Notes payable by the Issuer pursuant to Section 3.02 and any Default or Event of Default information contained in the Officer’s Certificate delivered to it

pursuant to Section 3.07(B), the Trustee will have no duty to monitor the Issuer’s compliance with or the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant made in this Indenture.

(L) The Trustee shall at no time have any responsibility or liability for or in respect to the legality, validity or enforceability of any

Collateral or any arrangement or agreement between the Issuer and any other Person with respect thereto, or the legality, validity, enforceability, perfection or priority of any security interest created in any of the Collateral or maintenance of

any perfection and priority, or for or with respect to the sufficiency of the Collateral following an Event of Default. The Trustee shall have no obligation to give, execute, deliver, file, record, authorize or obtain any financing statements,

notices, instruments, documents, agreements, consents or other papers as shall be necessary to (i) create, preserve, perfect or validate the security interest granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Documents or enable the

Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights under the Security Documents with respect to such pledge and security interest. In addition, the Trustee shall have no responsibility or liability (i) in connection with the acts or omissions

of the Issuer in respect of the foregoing.

(M) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless a

Responsible Officer of the Trustee has received written notice at the Corporate Trust Office of any event which is in fact such a default, and such notice references the Notes and this Indenture and states on its face that a Default or Event of

Default has occurred.

(N) Whether or not expressly incorporated therein, the Trustee shall have the benefit of all of the rights,

privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee under this Indenture when acting under any other Note Document.

- 146 -

Section 10.03. INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS OF THE

TRUSTEE.

(A) The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of any Note and may

otherwise deal with the Issuer or any of its Affiliates with the same rights that it would have if it were not Trustee.

Section 10.04.

TRUSTEE’s DISCLAIMER.

The Trustee will not be (A) responsible for, and makes no

representation as to, the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes or Note Documents; (B) accountable for the Issuer’s use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Issuer or upon the Issuer’s direction

under any provision of this Indenture; (C) responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee; and (D) responsible for any statement or recital in this Indenture, the Notes or Note

Documents or any other document relating to the sale of the Notes or this Indenture, other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication.

Section 10.05. NOTICE OF DEFAULTS.

If a Default or Event of Default occurs, then the Trustee will send Holders a notice of such Default or Event of Default within ninety

(90) days after it occurs or, if it is not actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee at such time, promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days) after it becomes known to a Responsible Officer; provided,

however, that, except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, or interest on, any Note, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and for so long as it in good faith determines that

withholding such notice is in the interests of the Holders. The Trustee will not to be charged with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default, or knowledge of any cure of any Default or Event of Default, unless written notice of such Default or

Event of Default, or of such cure of any Default or Event of Default, has been given by the Issuer or any Holder to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee and such notice states on its face that a Default or Event of Default has occurred.

Section 10.06. COMPENSATION AND INDEMNITY.

(A) The Issuer will, from time to time, pay the Trustee and the Collateral Agent reasonable compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture

and the other Note Documents and services under this Indenture and the other Note Documents. The Trustee’s and the Collateral Agent’s compensation will not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. In

addition to the compensation for the Trustee’s and Collateral Agent’s services, the Issuer will reimburse the Trustee and the Collateral Agent promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made

by it under this Indenture, including the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s and the Collateral Agent’s agents and counsel.

(B) The Issuer will indemnify the Trustee and the Collateral Agent and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents

(collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) and hold the Indemnified Parties harmless against any and all losses, liabilities, suits, actions, proceedings at law or in equity, and any other costs, fees or expenses incurred by the

Indemnified Parties arising out of or in connection with the acceptance and administration of its duties under this Indenture

- 147 -

and the other Note Documents, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture and the Note Documents against the Issuer (including this Section 10.06) and

defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Issuer, any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties under this Indenture and the other Note Documents, except

to the extent any such loss, liability, suit, action, proceeding at law or in equity or other cost, fee or expense may be attributable to such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. The Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, will promptly notify the Issuer of any third party claim for which it may seek indemnity, but the

Trustee’s or the Collateral Agent’s failure to so notify the Issuer will not relieve the Issuer of its obligations under this Section 10.06(B). The Issuer will defend such claim, and the Trustee and the

Collateral Agent will cooperate in such defense. If the Trustee or the Collateral Agent is advised by counsel that it may have defenses available to it that are in conflict with the defenses available to the Issuer, or that there is an actual or

potential conflict of interest, then the Trustee or the Collateral Agent may retain separate counsel, and the Issuer will pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Trustee and

the Collateral Agent incurred in evaluating whether such a conflict exists). The Issuer need not pay for any settlement of any such claim made without its consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.

(C) The obligations of the Issuer under this Section 10.06 will survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee or

the Collateral Agent, the repayment of the Notes and the satisfaction or discharge of this Indenture.

(D) To secure the Issuer’s

payment obligations in this Section 10.06, the Trustee will have a lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal of, or interest on, particular

Notes, which lien will survive the discharge of this Indenture.

(E) If the Trustee or the Collateral Agent incurs expenses or renders

services after an Event of Default pursuant to Section 7.01(A)(xi) or 7.01(A)(xii) occurs, then such expenses and the compensation for such services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are

intended to constitute expenses of administration for purposes of priority under any Bankruptcy Law.

Section 10.07. REPLACEMENT

OF THE TRUSTEE.

(A) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this

Section 10.07, a resignation or removal of the Trustee, and the appointment of a successor Trustee, will become effective only upon such successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this

Section 10.07.

(B) The Trustee may resign at any time and be discharged from the trust created by this

Indenture by so notifying the Issuer. The Majority Holders may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Issuer in writing at least thirty (30) days prior to the requested date of removal. The Issuer may remove the Trustee if:

(i) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 10.09;

- 148 -

(ii) the Trustee is adjudged to be bankrupt or insolvent or an order for

relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law;

(iii) a custodian or public officer takes charge

of the Trustee or its property; or

(iv) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting.

(C) If the Trustee resigns or is removed, or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, then (i) the Issuer will

promptly appoint a successor Trustee; and (ii) at any time within one (1) year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Majority Holders may appoint a successor Trustee to replace such successor Trustee appointed by the Issuer.

(D) If a successor Trustee does not take office within sixty (60) days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, then the

retiring Trustee (at the expense of the Issuer), the Issuer or the Holders of at least ten percent (10%) in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor

Trustee.

(E) If the Trustee, after written request by a Holder of at least six (6) months, fails to comply with

Section 10.09, then such Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

(F) A successor Trustee will deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuer, upon which notice the

resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee will become effective and the successor Trustee will have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee will send notice of its succession to Holders. The

retiring Trustee will, upon payment of all amounts due to it under this Indenture, promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, which property will, for the avoidance of doubt, be subject to the lien provided for in

Section 10.06(D).

(G) For as long as any First-Priority Obligations remain outstanding, the successor Trustee

shall concurrently with its appointment as the successor Trustee accede as a party to the applicable Intercreditor Agreements.

Section 10.08.

SUCCESSOR TRUSTEE BY MERGER, ETC.

If the Trustee

consolidates, merges or converts into, sells or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation, then such corporation will become the successor Trustee without any further act.

Section 10.09. ELIGIBILITY; DISQUALIFICATION.

There will at all times be a Trustee under this Indenture that is a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United

States of America or of any state or territory thereof or the District of Columbia, that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal, state, territorial or District of

Columbia authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50.0 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. Neither the Issuer nor any Subsidiary Guarantor nor any person directly or

indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor shall serve as Trustee under this Indenture.

- 149 -

Section 10.10. [RESERVED].

Article 11. COLLATERAL AND SECURITY

Section 11.01. COLLATERAL AGENT.

(A) The Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby appoint U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association to act as Collateral Agent, and each

Holder, by its acceptance of any Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees thereof, irrevocably consents and agrees to such appointment on its behalf. The Collateral Agent shall have the privileges, powers and immunities as set forth in this Indenture and

the Security Documents. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Indenture, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements, the duties of the Collateral Agent shall be ministerial and administrative in

nature, and the Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein and in the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements to which the Collateral Agent is a party, nor shall the Collateral

Agent have or be deemed to have any trust or other fiduciary relationship with the Trustee, any Holder, the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read

into this Indenture, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements or otherwise exist against the Collateral Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Indenture with

reference to the Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended

to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

(B) The Issuer and the Subsidiary

Guarantors hereby agrees that the Collateral Agent shall hold the Collateral on behalf of and for the benefit of all of the Holders, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent, in each case pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of the Security

Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements and that the Collateral as now or hereafter constituted shall be held for the benefit of all the Holders, the Collateral Agent and the Trustee, and that the Lien of this Indenture and the Security Documents

in respect of the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and the Holders is subject to and qualified and limited in all respects by the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements and actions that may be taken thereunder. The Collateral Agent is each

Holder’s agent for the purpose of perfecting the Holders’ security interest in the Collateral which, in accordance with Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code can be perfected only by possession. Should the Trustee obtain possession of

any such Collateral, the Trustee shall notify the Collateral Agent thereof and promptly shall deliver such Collateral to the Collateral Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Collateral Agent’s instructions.

(C) Each Holder, by its acceptance of any Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees thereof, irrevocably consents and agrees to the terms of the

Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements (including, without limitation, the provisions providing for foreclosure, exercises of remedies and release of Collateral) as the same may be in effect or may be amended from time to time in

accordance with their terms, agrees to the appointment of the Collateral Agent and

- 150 -

authorizes and directs the Trustee and the Collateral Agent, as applicable, (i) to enter into the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements, whether executed on or after the Issue

Date, and perform its obligations and exercise its rights, powers and discretions under the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements in accordance therewith, (ii) make the representations of the Holders set forth in the Security

Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements, and (iii) bind the Holders on the terms as set forth in the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements.

(D) The Collateral Agent shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and

neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible for any act or failure to act hereunder or under any Security Documents or Intercreditor Agreements to which it is a party, except for its own

gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Collateral Agent shall have no liability for any action taken, or errors in judgment made, in good faith by it or any of its officers, employees or agents, unless it shall have been grossly negligent in

ascertaining the pertinent facts.

(E) The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to seek and shall be fully justified in failing or refusing

to take any action under this Indenture, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Trustee or the Majority Holders as it determines and, if it so requests, it shall first

be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Holders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Except as otherwise provided in the Security Documents, the Collateral

Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Indenture, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements in accordance with a request, direction, instruction or consent of the Trustee or the

Majority Holders and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Holders. If the Collateral Agent shall request direction from the Majority Holders with respect to any action, the Collateral

Agent shall be entitled to refrain from taking such action unless and until the Collateral Agent shall have received direction from the Majority Holders, and the Collateral Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining.

(F) The Collateral Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Trustee or

the Majority Holders (subject to this Section 11.01(F)), subject to the terms of the Security Documents.

(G)

Except as otherwise explicitly provided herein or in the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements, neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its respective officers, directors, employees or agents or other Affiliates shall be liable for

failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever

with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof.

(H) If at any time or times the Trustee shall receive (i) by payment,

foreclosure, set-off or otherwise, any proceeds of Collateral or any payments with respect to the Note Obligations arising under, or relating to, this Indenture, except for any such proceeds or payments

received by the Trustee from the Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms of this Indenture and to the extent such proceeds or payments are permitted to be paid to the Trustee or the Holders under the terms of the

- 151 -

Intercreditor Agreements, or (ii) payments from the Collateral Agent in excess of the amount required to be paid to the Trustee pursuant to Article 7, the Trustee shall promptly turn the

same over to the Collateral Agent, in kind, and with such endorsements as may be required to negotiate the same to the Collateral Agent such proceeds to be applied by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, the Security

Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements.

(I) Neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall have any obligation whatsoever to any

of the Holders or to the Trustee, in the case of the Collateral Agent, to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor or is cared for, protected, or insured or has been encumbered, or that the Collateral

Agent’s Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected, maintained or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to determine whether all of the Issuer’s or any Subsidiary

Guarantor’s property constituting Collateral intended to be subject to the Lien and security interest of the Security Documents has been properly and completely listed or delivered, as the case may be, or the value, genuineness, validity,

ownership, marketability or sufficiency thereof or title thereto, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure, or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities, and powers granted or

available to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Indenture, any Security Document or the Intercreditor Agreements other than to exercise such rights, authorities and powers pursuant to the instructions of the Trustee or the Majority Holders or as

otherwise provided in the Security Documents. Further to the foregoing and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or in any Security Document or any Intercreditor Agreement, in no event shall the Collateral Agent or the Trustee

be responsible for, or have any duty or obligation with respect to, the recording, filing, registering, perfection, protection or maintenance of the security interests or Liens intended to be created by this Indenture, the Security Documents or the

Intercreditor Agreements (including without limitation the filing or continuation of any Uniform Commercial Code financing or continuation statements or similar documents or instruments), nor shall the Collateral Agent be responsible for, or makes

any representation regarding, the validity, effectiveness or priority of any of the Security Documents or the security interests or Liens intended to be created thereby.

(J) The Collateral Agent shall exercise reasonable care in the custody of any Collateral in its possession or control or any income thereon.

The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which they accord similar property held for its own benefit and

shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in value of any of the Collateral, including, without limitation, by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or bailee selected by the Collateral

Agent in good faith. The Collateral Agent shall be permitted to use overnight carriers to transmit possessory collateral and shall be not liable for any items lost or damages in transmit.

(K) Upon the receipt by the Collateral Agent (and where applicable, the Trustee) of a written request of the Issuer signed by an Officer (a

“Security Document Order”), the Collateral Agent (and where applicable, the Trustee) is hereby authorized to execute and enter into, and shall execute and enter into, without the further consent of any Holder or the Trustee, any

Security Document to be executed after the Issue Date. Such Security Document Order shall (i) state that it is being delivered to the Collateral Agent (and where applicable, the Trustee) pursuant to, and is a Security Document Order referred to

in, this Section 11.01(K), (ii) instruct the Collateral Agent

- 152 -

(and where applicable, the Trustee) to execute and enter into such Security Document and (iii) certify that all covenants and conditions precedent, if any to the execution and delivery of

the Security Document have been compiled with; provided that in no event shall the Collateral Agent (and where applicable, the Trustee) be required to enter into a Security Document that it reasonably determines adversely affects the

Collateral Agent (and where applicable, the Trustee). The Holders, through their acceptance of the Notes, hereby authorize and direct the Collateral Agent (and where applicable, the Trustee) to execute such Security Documents.

(L) Upon receipt by the Collateral Agent of a Security Document Order, the Collateral Agent (and where applicable, the Trustee) is hereby

authorized to execute and enter into, and shall execute and enter into, without the further consent of any Holder or the Trustee, any Intercreditor Agreement to be entered into after the Issue Date or existing as of the Issue Date. Such Security

Document Order shall (i) state that it is being delivered to the Collateral Agent pursuant to, and is an Intercreditor Agreement referred to in this Section 11.01(L), (ii) certify that such Intercreditor Agreement

complies with the terms of this Indenture and the Note Documents and that all covenants and conditions precedent, if any, under this Indenture and the Note Documents to such execution and delivery have been complied with and (iii) instruct the

Collateral Agent (and where applicable, the Trustee) to execute and enter into such Intercreditor Agreement; provided that in no event shall the Collateral Agent (and where applicable, the Trustee) be required to enter into any intercreditor

agreement if it reasonably determines that such document adversely affects the Collateral Agent (and where applicable, the Trustee). The Holders, by their acceptance of the Notes, authorize and direct the Collateral Agent (and where applicable, the

Trustee) to execute such intercreditor agreements and the Collateral Agent (and where applicable, the Trustee) shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such Security Document Order.

(M) The Collateral Agent is authorized to receive any funds for the benefit of itself, the Trustee and the Holders distributed under the

Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements and to the extent not prohibited under the Intercreditor Agreements, for turnover to the Trustee to make further distributions of such funds to itself, the Trustee and the Holders in accordance with

the provisions of Section 7.15 and the other provisions of this Indenture.

(N) In acting under this Indenture

or any other Note Document, the Collateral Agent shall have all the rights and protections provided hereunder and in the Note Documents as well as the rights and protections afforded to the Trustee (including its rights to be compensated, reimbursed

and indemnified under Section 10.06). For the avoidance of doubt, the rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Collateral Agent hereunder, including, without limitation, its right to be

indemnified prior to taking action, shall survive the satisfaction, discharge or termination of this Indenture or its earlier termination, resignation or removal of the Collateral Agent, in such capacity.

(O) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements or the Security Documents, in the event

the Collateral Agent is entitled or required to commence an action to foreclose or otherwise exercise its remedies to acquire control or possession of the Collateral, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to commence any such action or exercise

any remedy or to inspect or conduct any studies of any property under the Mortgages or take any such other action if the Collateral Agent has reasonably determined that the Collateral Agent may incur personal liability as a result of the presence

at, or release on or from, the Collateral or such property, of any hazardous substances. The Collateral Agent shall at any time be entitled to cease taking any action described in this clause if it no longer reasonably deems any indemnity, security

or undertaking from the Issuer or the Holders to be sufficient.

- 153 -

(P) The parties hereto and the Holders hereby agree and acknowledge that neither the

Collateral Agent nor the Trustee shall assume, be responsible for or otherwise be obligated for any liabilities, claims, causes of action, suits, losses, allegations, requests, demands, penalties, fines, settlements, damages (including foreseeable

and unforeseeable), judgments, expenses and costs (including but not limited to, any remediation, corrective action, response, removal or remedial action, or investigation, operations and maintenance or monitoring costs, for personal injury or

property damages, real or personal) of any kind whatsoever, pursuant to any environmental law as a result of this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements, the Security Documents or any actions taken pursuant hereto or thereto. Further, the parties

hereto and the Holders hereby agree and acknowledge that in the exercise of its rights under this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements and the Security Documents, the Collateral Agent or the Trustee may hold or obtain indicia of ownership

primarily to protect the security interest of the Collateral Agent or the Trustee in the Collateral and that any such actions taken by the Collateral Agent or the Trustee shall not be construed as or otherwise constitute any participation in the

management of such Collateral. In the event that the Collateral Agent or the Trustee is required to acquire title to an asset for any reason, or take any managerial action of any kind in regard thereto, in order to carry out any fiduciary or trust

obligation for the benefit of another, which in the Collateral Agent’s or the Trustee’s sole discretion may cause the Collateral Agent or the Trustee to be considered an “owner or operator” under the provisions of the

Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”), 42 U.S.C. §9601, et seq., or otherwise cause the Collateral Agent or the Trustee to incur liability under CERCLA or any other federal, state or

local law, the Collateral Agent and the Trustee reserves the right, instead of taking such action, to either resign as the Collateral Agent or the Trustee or arrange for the transfer of the title or control of the asset to a court-appointed

receiver. Neither the Collateral Agent nor the Trustee shall be liable to the Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors or any other Person for any environmental claims or contribution actions under any federal, state or local law, rule or regulation by

reason of the Collateral Agent’s or the Trustee’s actions and conduct as authorized, empowered and directed hereunder or relating to the discharge, release or threatened release of hazardous materials into the environment. If at any time

it is necessary or advisable for property to be possessed, owned, operated or managed by any Person (including the Collateral Agent or the Trustee) other than the Issuer or the Subsidiary Guarantors, subject to the terms of the Security Documents,

the Majority Holders shall direct the Collateral Agent or the Trustee to appoint an appropriately qualified Person (excluding the Collateral Agent or the Trustee) who they shall designate to possess, own, operate or manage, as the case may be, the

property.

(Q) Neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall be under any obligation to effect or maintain insurance or to renew any

policies of insurance or to make any determination or inquire as to the sufficiency of any policies of insurance carried by the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, or to report, or make or file claims or proof of loss for, any loss or damage insured

against or that may occur, or to keep itself informed or advised as to the payment of any taxes or assessments, or to require any such payment to be made.

- 154 -

(R) Without limiting the foregoing, with respect to any Collateral located outside of the

United States (“Foreign Collateral”), the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to directly enforce, or exercise rights and remedies in respect of, or otherwise exercise any judicial action or appear before any court in any

jurisdiction outside of the United States. To the extent the Majority Holders determine that it is necessary or advisable in connection with any enforcement or exercise of rights with respect to Foreign Collateral to exercise any judicial action or

appear before any such court, the Majority Holders shall be entitled to direct the Collateral Agent to appoint a local agent for such purpose (subject to the receipt of such protections, security and indemnities as the Collateral Agent shall

determine in its sole discretion to protect the Collateral Agent from liability).

(S) Neither the Collateral Agent nor the Trustee shall

have any responsibility or liability for the actions or omissions of the any other agent under the Intercreditor Agreements, nor shall the Trustee or Collateral Agent be obligated at any time to indemnify any person in connection with the exercise

of any remedy under the Security Documents.

(T) The Collateral Agent may resign at any time by notice to the Trustee and the Issuer, such

resignation to be effective upon the acceptance of a successor agent to its appointment as Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent may be removed by the Issuer at any time, upon thirty days written notice to the Collateral Agent. If the Collateral

Agent resigns or is removed under this Indenture, the Issuer shall appoint a successor collateral agent. If no successor collateral agent is appointed and has accepted such appointment within 30 days after the Collateral Agent gave notice of

resignation or was removed, the retiring Collateral Agent may (at the expense of the Issuer), at its option, appoint a successor Collateral Agent or petition a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor. Upon the acceptance

of its appointment as successor collateral agent hereunder, such successor collateral agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent, and the term “Collateral Agent” shall mean such successor

collateral agent, and the retiring or removed Collateral Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as the Collateral Agent shall be terminated. After the retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder, the provisions of this

Section 11.01 (and Section 10.06) shall continue to inure to its benefit and the retiring or removed Collateral Agent shall not by reason of such resignation or removal be deemed to be released

from liability as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Collateral Agent under this Indenture.

(U) If the

Collateral Agent consolidates, mergers, converts into or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to another corporation, such successor corporation without any further act shall be the successor Collateral Agent.

(V) Permissive rights of the Collateral Agent to do things enumerated in this Indenture, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor

Agreements shall not be construed as a duty.

(W) Nothing in this Indenture shall require the Collateral Agent to expend or risk its own

funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers hereunder.

(X) The Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or

direction of the Holders, unless the Holders have offered to the Collateral Agent security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred by it in compliance with such

direction or request.

- 155 -

(Y) In no event shall the Collateral Agent be responsible or liable for special, indirect,

punitive, incidental or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Collateral Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the

form of action.

(Z) Before the Collateral Agent acts or refrains from acting in each case at the request or direction of the Issuer or

the Subsidiary Guarantors, it may require an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, which shall conform to the provisions of Section 13.03. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any action it takes or

omits to take in good faith in reliance on such certificate or opinion. The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely on and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Collateral Agent in accordance with the advice of

counsel or other professionals retained or consulted by the Collateral Agent.

(AA) The Collateral Agent may act through attorneys or

agents and shall not be responsible for the acts or omissions of any such attorney or agent appointed with due care.

(BB) The Collateral

Agent shall not be charged with knowledge of (i) any events or other information, or (ii) any default under this Indenture or any other agreement unless a Responsible Officer of the Collateral Agent shall have actual knowledge thereof.

(CC) The Collateral Agent may conclusively rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution,

certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document believed by them to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by

the proper party or parties, not only as to due execution, validity and effectiveness, but also as to the truth and accuracy of any information contained therein.

(DD) The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under this

Indenture arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond its control, including without limitation, any act or provision of any present or future law or regulation or governmental authority; acts of God; earthquakes;

fires; floods; wars; terrorism; civil or military disturbances; sabotage; epidemics; riots; interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, computer (hardware or software) or communications service; accidents; labor disputes; acts of civil or

military authority or governmental actions; or the unavailability of the Federal Reserve Bank wire or telex or other wire or communication facility.

(EE) The Collateral Agent shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a

direction received by it pursuant to Section 7.07. The Majority Holders may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Collateral Agent or of exercising any trust or power

conferred on the Collateral Agent. However, the Collateral Agent may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or the Notes, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements or that the Collateral Agent

determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders (provided that the Collateral Agent shall not have an affirmative duty to determine whether any

- 156 -

such action is unduly prejudicial) or would involve the Collateral Agent in personal liability; provided, however, that the Collateral Agent may take any other action deemed proper by the

Collateral Agent that is not inconsistent with such direction. Prior to taking any such action hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to indemnification reasonably satisfactory to it against all fees, losses, liabilities and expenses

(including attorney’s fees and expenses) that may be caused by taking or not taking such action.

(FF) The Collateral Agent shall

not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Collateral Agent may agree in writing with the Issuer (and money held in trust by the Collateral Agent need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by

law).

(GG) Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary set forth herein, whenever reference is made herein or in any other Note

Document to any discretionary action by, consent, designation, specification, requirement or approval of, notice, request or other communication from, or other direction given or action to be undertaken (or not to be) suffered or omitted by the

Collateral Agent or to any election, decision, opinion, acceptance, use of judgment expression of satisfaction or other exercise of discretion, rights or remedies to be made (or not to be made) by the Collateral Agent, (i) such provision shall

refer to the Collateral Agent exercising each of the foregoing at the instruction of the Majority Holders (or such other number or percentage of Holders as is required by the Note Documents) and (ii) it is understood that in all cases, the

Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any such action if it shall not have received written instruction, advice or concurrence from the Majority Holders (or such other number or percentage of Holders as shall be

expressly provided for in any Note Document) in respect of such action.

Section 11.02. DELEGATION OF

DUTIES.

(A) The Trustee and the Collateral Agent (each, an “Agent”) may execute any of their

respective duties under this Indenture and the other Note Documents (including for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof)) by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. No Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct

of any agents, attorneys-in-fact or Subagent selected by it with reasonable care. Each Agent may also from time to time, when it deems it to be necessary or desirable,

appoint one or more trustees, co-trustees, collateral co-agents, collateral subagents or

attorneys-in-fact (each, a “Subagent”) with respect to all or any part of the Collateral; provided, that no such Subagent shall be authorized

to take any action with respect to any Collateral unless and except to the extent expressly authorized in writing by the applicable Agent. Should any instrument in writing from the Issuer or any other Note Party be required by any Subagent so

appointed by an Agent to more fully or certainly vest in and confirm to such Subagent such rights, powers, privileges and duties, the Issuer shall, or shall cause such Note Party to, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such instruments

promptly upon request by such Agent. If any Subagent, or successor thereto, shall become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Subagent, to the extent permitted by law, shall automatically vest

in and be exercised by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent until the appointment of a new Subagent.

- 157 -

Section 11.03. SECURITY DOCUMENTS.

(A) The Holders and the other Secured Parties authorize the Collateral Agent and the Trustee to release any Collateral or Subsidiary

Guarantors in accordance with Section 11.05 or Section 12.04 or if approved, authorized or ratified in accordance with Article 8.

(B) The Holders and the other Secured Parties hereby authorize and instruct the Trustee and the Collateral Agent to, without any further

consent of any Holders or any other Secured Party (other than any consent of the Holders to the form of any Additional Intercreditor Agreement, to the extent required by Article 8 or Article 14), enter into (or acknowledge and consent

to) or amend, renew, extend, supplement, restate, replace, waive or otherwise modify (i) the First-Lien/1.5-Lien Intercreditor Agreement, (ii) the First-Lien/Second-Lien Intercreditor Agreement (via

a joinder agreement thereto) or (iii) any Additional Intercreditor Agreement, in each case of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), with the collateral agent or other representatives of the holders of Indebtedness or other obligations that is to be

secured by a Lien on the Collateral that is expressly permitted (including with respect to priority) under this Indenture and to subject the Liens on the Collateral securing the Note Obligations to the provisions thereof. The Holders and the other

Secured Parties agree that (x) the Trustee and the Collateral Agent may rely exclusively on an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuer as to whether any such other Liens are expressly permitted and that all covenants and conditions precedent

to the execution of such Intercreditor Agreement have been complied with and (y) any Intercreditor Agreement entered into by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent in compliance with the terms of this Indenture shall be binding on the Secured

Parties, and each Holder and the other Secured Parties hereby agrees that it will take no actions contrary to the provisions of, if entered into in compliance with the terms of this Indenture and if applicable, any Intercreditor Agreement. The

foregoing provisions are intended as an inducement to any provider of any Indebtedness or other obligations expressly permitted by Section 3.12 to extend credit to the Note Parties and such persons are intended third-party

beneficiaries of such provisions.

Section 11.04. AUTHORIZATION OF ACTIONS TO

BE TAKEN.

(A) Each Holder, by its acceptance of Notes, consents and agrees to the terms of each

Security Document and each Intercreditor Agreement as originally in effect and as amended, supplemented or replaced from time to time in accordance with its terms or the terms of this Indenture, authorizes and directs the Trustee and/or the

Collateral Agent to enter into each Intercreditor Agreement permitted by the terms of this Indenture and the Security Documents to which it is a party, authorizes and empowers the Trustee to direct the Collateral Agent to enter into, and the

Collateral Agent to execute and deliver, the Security Documents and each Intercreditor Agreement permitted hereunder and authorizes and empowers the Trustee and the Collateral Agent to bind the holders of Notes and other holders of Note Obligations

as set forth in the Security Documents to which it is a party and each Intercreditor Agreement permitted hereunder and to perform its obligations and exercise its rights and powers thereunder.

(B) Subject to the provisions of each Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent are authorized

and empowered to receive for the benefit of the holders of Notes any funds collected or distributed under the Security Documents to which the Collateral Agent or Trustee is a party and to make further distributions of such funds to the holders of

Notes according to the provisions of this Indenture.

- 158 -

(C) Subject to the provisions of Article 7, Section 10.01

and Section 10.02, each Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents, upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee may, in its sole discretion and without the consent of the Holders, direct,

on behalf of the Holders, the Collateral Agent to take all actions it deems necessary or appropriate in order to:

(i)

foreclose upon or otherwise enforce any or all of the Liens securing the Note Obligations;

(ii) enforce any of the terms

of the Security Documents to which the Collateral Agent or Trustee is a party; or

(iii) collect and receive payment of

any and all Note Obligations.

(D) Subject to the terms of each Intercreditor Agreement, the Trustee is authorized and empowered to

institute and maintain, or direct the Collateral Agent to institute and maintain, such suits and proceedings as it may deem expedient to protect or enforce the Liens securing the Note Obligations or the Security Documents to which the Collateral

Agent or Trustee is a party or to prevent any impairment of Collateral by any acts that may be unlawful or in violation of the Security Documents to which the Collateral Agent or Trustee is a party or this Indenture, and such suits and proceedings

as the Trustee or the Collateral Agent may deem expedient to preserve or protect its interests and the interests of the Holders in the Collateral, including power to institute and maintain suits or proceedings to restrain the enforcement of or

compliance with any legislative or other governmental enactment, rule or order that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid if the enforcement of, or compliance with, such enactment, rule or order would impair the security interest hereunder or

be prejudicial to the interests of Holders, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent.

(E) Notwithstanding anything contrary under this

Indenture, the Holders are deemed to have consented to, and shall be deemed to have directed the Trustee and/or the Collateral Agent (as applicable), to execute and deliver any of the following amendments, waivers and other modifications to the Note

Documents, in each case, as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel delivered to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 8.07, Section 13.02 and

Section 13.03:

(i) to establish that the Liens on any Collateral securing any Indebtedness

replacing the applicable series of First Lien Notes permitted to be incurred under the First-Priority Debt Documents that represent First-Priority Obligations shall be senior to the Liens on such Collateral securing the Note Obligations under this

Indenture, the Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees, which obligations shall continue to be secured on a 1.5-priority basis on the Collateral, subordinated and junior to all First-Priority Obligations secured

thereby;

(ii) to give effect to any amendment, waiver or consent to any of the First-Priority Debt Documents, to the

extent applicable to the Collateral (including the release of any Liens on Collateral), that applies automatically to the comparable Security Documents with respect to the security interest of the Holders in such Collateral pursuant to the terms of

the Intercreditor Agreements; and

- 159 -

(iii) upon any cancellation, repayment, redemption or termination of the

First Lien Notes and all other First-Priority Obligations without a replacement thereof, and to the extent the Note Obligations have not been discharged in full in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and the Intercreditor Agreements, to

establish that the Liens on the Collateral securing any Note Obligations under this Indenture, the Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees shall become first priority perfected Lien, except as set forth below under

Section 11.05.

Section 11.05. RELEASE OR SUBORDINATION OF

LIENS.

(A) The Holders and the other Secured Parties hereby irrevocably agree that the Liens granted to the Collateral

Agent by the Note Parties on any Collateral shall be automatically released: (i) in full upon the occurrence of the Termination Date subject to Section 11.05(D); (ii) upon the Disposition of such Collateral by any Note

Party to a person that is not (and is not required to become) a Note Party in a transaction not prohibited by this Indenture (and the Collateral Agent and the Trustee may rely conclusively on an Officer’s Certificate to that effect provided to

it by any Note Party upon its reasonable request without further inquiry), (iii) to the extent that such Collateral comprises property leased to a Note Party, upon termination or expiration of such lease (and the Collateral Agent may rely

conclusively on an Officer’s Certificate to that effect provided to it by any Note Party upon its reasonable request without further inquiry), (iv) if the release of such Lien is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Majority

Holders (or such other percentage of the Holders whose consent may be required in accordance with Article 8), (v) to the extent that the property constituting such Collateral is owned by any Subsidiary Guarantor, upon the release of such

Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee in accordance with this Indenture (and the Collateral Agent and the Trustee may rely conclusively on an Officer’s Certificate to that effect provided to it by any Note

Party upon its reasonable request without inquiry), (vi) as required by the Trustee to effect any Disposition of Collateral in connection with any exercise of remedies of the Collateral Agent or the Trustee pursuant to the Security Documents and

(vii) as required by the terms of any Intercreditor Agreement. The Holders and the other Secured Parties hereby irrevocably agree that the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent by the Note Parties on any Collateral shall be automatically

subordinated to the Liens securing other Indebtedness or other obligations to the extent expressly contemplated by this Indenture and required by any Intercreditor Agreement permitted by this Indenture. Any such release or subordination shall not in

any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Note Obligations or any Liens (other than those being released) upon (or obligations (other than those being released) of the Note Parties in respect of) all interests retained by the Note Parties,

including the proceeds of any Disposition, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral except to the extent otherwise released in accordance with the provisions of the Note Documents.

(B) [Reserved].

- 160 -

(C) The Holders and the other Secured Parties hereby authorize the Trustee and the

Collateral Agent, as applicable, to execute and deliver any instruments, documents, and agreements necessary or desirable to evidence and confirm the release of any Subsidiary Guarantor or the release or subordination of any Collateral pursuant to

Section 11.03 and the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.05 and to return to the Issuer all title documents (including share certificates (if any)) held by it in respect of any Collateral, all

without the further consent or joinder of any Holder or any other Secured Party. Any representation, warranty or covenant contained in any Note Document relating to any such Collateral or Subsidiary Guarantor shall no longer be deemed to be made. In

connection with any release or subordination hereunder, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall promptly (and the Secured Parties hereby authorize the Trustee and the Collateral Agent to) take such action and execute any such documents as may be

reasonably requested by the Issuer and at the Issuer’s expense in connection with the release or subordination of any Liens or release of Guarantees created by any Note Document in respect of such Subsidiary, property or asset; provided

that the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall have received an Officer’s Certificate containing such certifications as the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall reasonably request (and the Trustee and the Collateral Agent may

rely conclusively on an Officer’s Certificate to that effect provided to it by any Note Party upon its reasonable request without inquiry). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or any other Note Document, on the

Termination Date, upon request of the Issuer, the Trustee and/or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Secured Party) take such actions as shall be required to release its security interest in all

Collateral (including returning to the Issuer all share certificates (if any) held by it in respect of any Collateral), and to release all obligations under any Note Document, whether or not on the date of such release there may be any contingent

indemnification obligations or expense reimbursement claims not then due; provided that the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall have received an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuer containing such certifications as the Trustee and

the Collateral Agent shall reasonably request (and the Trustee and the Collateral Agent may rely conclusively on an Officer’s Certificate to that effect provided to it by any Note Party upon its reasonable request without inquiry).

(D) Any such release of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be deemed subject to the provision that such Guaranteed Obligations shall be

reinstated if after such release any portion of any payment in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the

Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or

otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. The Issuer agrees to pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Trustee or the

Collateral Agent (and their respective representatives) in connection with taking such actions to release security interest in all Collateral and all obligations under the Note Documents as contemplated by this

Section 11.05(D).

Section 11.06. POWERS EXERCISABLE BY

RECEIVER OR TRUSTEE.

(A) In case the Collateral shall be in the possession of a receiver

or trustee, lawfully appointed, the powers conferred in this Article 11 upon the Issuer or the Subsidiary Guarantors with respect to the release, subordination, sale or other disposition of such property may be exercised by such receiver or

trustee, and an instrument signed by such receiver or trustee shall be deemed the equivalent of any similar instrument of the Issuer or the Subsidiary Guarantors or of any officer or officers thereof required by the provisions of this Article

11; and if the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or a nominee of the Trustee or Collateral Agent shall be in the possession of the Collateral under any provision of this Indenture, then such powers may be exercised by the Trustee, Collateral Agent

or a nominee of the Trustee or Collateral Agent.

Section 11.07. RELEASE UPON TERMINATION

OF THE ISSUER’s OBLIGATIONS.

(A) In the event (i) that the

Issuer delivers to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate certifying that all the Note Obligations (other than any contingent indemnification obligations or expense reimburse claims not then due) have been satisfied and discharged by the payment

in full of the Note Obligations, and all such Note Obligations have been so satisfied, or (ii) a discharge of this Indenture occurs under Article 9, the Trustee shall deliver to the Issuer and the Collateral Agent a notice stating that

the Trustee, on behalf of the Holders, disclaims and gives up any and all rights it has in or to the Collateral, and any rights it has under the Security Documents, and upon receipt by the Collateral Agent of such notice, the Collateral Agent shall

be deemed not to hold a Lien in the Collateral on behalf of the Trustee and shall do or cause to be done all acts reasonably necessary at the request and expense of the Issuer to release such Lien as soon as is reasonably practicable.

Section 11.08. RIGHT TO REALIZE ON COLLATERAL AND

ENFORCE GUARANTEES.

(A) Subject to the Intercreditor Agreements, in case of the pendency of any

receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Note Party, (i) the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of any Note Obligation shall

then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Issuer) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise (A) to

file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of any or all of the Note Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have

the claims of the Holders and the Trustee and any Subagents allowed in such judicial proceeding, and (B) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same, and (ii) any

custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, if the Trustee shall consent to the making of

such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under the Note

Documents. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Note Obligations or

the rights of any Holder or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

(B) Anything

contained in any of the Note Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Issuer, the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and each Secured Party hereby agree that (a) no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the

Collateral or to enforce the Subsidiary Guarantee, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by the Trustee, on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms hereof and all

powers, rights and remedies under the Security Documents may be

- 162 -

exercised solely by the Collateral Agent, and (b) in the event of a foreclosure by the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition, to

the extent permitted by applicable law, the Collateral Agent or any Holder may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and the Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of the

Secured Parties (but not any Note Party or Note Parties in its or their respective individual capacities unless the Supermajority Holders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or

payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Note Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by the Collateral Agent at such

sale or other Disposition.

Section 11.09. PARALLEL DEBT (COVENANT TO

PAY THE COLLATERAL AGENT).

(A) The Issuer and, subject to

Section 12.06, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes to pay to the Collateral Agent amounts equal to any amounts owing from time to time by the Issuer or that Subsidiary Guarantor to

any Secured Party under any Note Document as and when those amounts are due and payable.

(B) The Issuer, each Subsidiary Guarantor and

the Collateral Agent acknowledges that the obligations of the Issuer and each Subsidiary Guarantor under Section 11.09(A) above are several and are separate and independent from, and shall not in any way limit or affect,

the corresponding obligations of the Issuer or that Subsidiary Guarantor to any Secured Party under any Note Document (its “Corresponding Debt”), nor shall it constitute the Collateral Agent and any Note Party as joint creditors

of any Corresponding Debt, nor shall the amounts for which the Issuer or each Subsidiary Guarantor is liable under Section 11.09(A) above (its “Parallel Debt”) be limited or affected in any way by its

Corresponding Debt; provided that:

(i) The Parallel Debt of the Issuer and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall be

decreased and the Collateral Agent shall not demand payment to the extent that its Corresponding Debt has been paid or (in the case of guarantee obligations) discharged; and

(ii) The Corresponding Debt of the Issuer and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall be decreased and the Collateral Agent shall not

demand payment to the extent that its Parallel Debt has been paid or (in the case of guarantee obligations) discharged.

(C) For the

purposes of this Section 11.09, the Collateral Agent acts in its own name and not as a trustee, and its claims in respect of the Parallel Debt shall not be held on trust and instead shall be owed to it in its individual

capacity. The Collateral granted under the Security Documents to the Collateral Agent to secure the Parallel Debt is granted to the Collateral Agent in its capacity as Parallel Debt Creditor and shall not be held on trust.

(D) All moneys received or recovered by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section 11.09, and all amounts

received or recovered by the Collateral Agent from or by the enforcement of any Collateral granted to secure the Parallel Debt, shall be applied in accordance with this Indenture.

Article 12. GUARANTEES

Section 12.01. SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES.

(A) Subject to this Article 12, each of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally guarantees, on a

senior basis, as primary obligors and not as a surety, to each the Collateral Agent for the benefit of each Holder (and its successors and assigns) of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and each of the Collateral Agent and the Trustee

to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes, the Note Documents and/or the Note Obligations of the Issuer:

(i) that the principal of, interest on, or any other amount payable to the Holders, under the Notes shall be promptly paid in

full or performed when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest (including but not limited to any interest, fees, costs or charges that would accrue but for the

provisions of applicable Bankruptcy Law after any insolvency proceeding), on the Notes, if any, if lawful; and

(ii) that

in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or the payment of any other amount payable to the Holders, the same shall be promptly paid in full when due (such obligations in clauses (i) and

(ii) being herein collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”).

(B) Failing payment when so due of

any amount so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Subsidiary Guarantors will be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. An Event of Default under this Indenture or the Notes shall constitute an event of default under the

Subsidiary Guarantees, and shall entitle the Holders to accelerate the Guaranteed Obligations in the same manner and to the same extent as the Note Obligations.

(C) The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby agree that their Guaranteed Obligations shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, irrespective of

the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes, this Indenture, the Note Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent

by any Holder with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance (other than complete performance) which might otherwise constitute a legal or

equitable discharge or defense of a surety of Subsidiary Guarantor, all to the fullest extent permitted by law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or

impair the liability of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder which remain absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances as described above, to the fullest extent permitted by law:

(i) at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Subsidiary Guarantors, the time for any performance of or

compliance with any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived;

- 164 -

(ii) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Indenture or

the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be done or omitted;

(iii) the

maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be amended in any respect, or any right under the Indenture, Notes, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein

shall be amended or waived in any respect or any other guarantee of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with;

(iv) any Lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of any Holder, the Collateral Agent or the Trustee as security for

any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall fail to be perfected; or

(v) the release of any other Subsidiary Guarantor.

(D) Each Subsidiary Guarantor further, to the fullest extent permitted by law, hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing

of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that its Subsidiary Guarantee will not be discharged

except by complete performance of the Note Obligations.

(E) Until terminated in accordance with Section 12.05,

each Subsidiary Guarantee shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Issuer for liquidation, reorganization, should the Issuer become

insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee or other similar officer be appointed for all or any significant part of the Issuer’s assets, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law,

continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment of the Notes are, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee on the Notes or Subsidiary

Guarantees, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent transfer” or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. In the event that any payment or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned,

the Notes shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

(F) Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Subsidiary Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders, the Collateral

Agent and the Trustee, on the other hand, (a) the maturity of the Guaranteed Obligations may be accelerated as provided in Section 7.02 (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the

circumstances in Section 7.02) for the purposes of its Subsidiary Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed thereby, and

(b) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Section 7.02, such Guaranteed Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Subsidiary

Guarantor for the purpose of its Subsidiary Guarantee. The Subsidiary Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Subsidiary Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does

not impair the rights of the Holders under the Subsidiary Guarantees.

- 165 -

(G) Each Subsidiary Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including

reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent in enforcing any rights under the Note Documents.

(H)

Each Subsidiary Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of Holders against the Issuer in respect of any amounts paid by such Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of this Section 12.01; provided that no

Subsidiary Guarantor shall be entitled to enforce or receive any payments arising out of, or based upon, such right of subrogation until all amounts then due and payable by the Issuer under this Indenture, the Notes or the Note Documents shall have

been paid in full in cash.

(I) Each payment to be made by a Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of its Subsidiary Guarantee shall be made

without set-off, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any kind or nature.

(J) Each Subsidiary

Guarantee is in addition to and is not in any way prejudiced by any other guarantee or security now or subsequently held in connection with the Note Documents or any of them.

Section 12.02. EXECUTION AND DELIVERY.

(A) To evidence its Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in Section 12.01, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that

this Indenture (or a supplemental indenture) shall be executed on behalf of such Subsidiary Guarantor by one of its authorized officers.

(B) Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in Section 12.01 shall remain in

full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of any notation of such Subsidiary Guarantee on the Notes. If an officer whose signature is on this Indenture (or a supplemental indenture) no longer holds that office at the time

the Trustee authenticates a Note, the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be valid nevertheless.

(C) The delivery of

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

Section 12.03. [RESERVED].

Section 12.04. RELEASES OF SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES.

(A) The Subsidiary Guarantee of a Subsidiary Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released:

- 166 -

(i) in connection with (x) any disposition (including by way of merger

or consolidation) of the Equity Interests of such Subsidiary Guarantor (or the Equity Interests of the direct parent of such Subsidiary Guarantor) to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) a Note Party, to

the extent such sale is permitted under any First-Priority Debt Documents and is not in violation of Section 3.16 or (y) any sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of that

Subsidiary Guarantor, by way of merger, consolidation or otherwise solely to the extent that such sale or other disposition is permitted pursuant to Section 6.01, in each case, only provided that the applicable guarantee of

such Subsidiary Guarantor under First-Priority Debt Documents is also released under any First-Priority Debt Documents substantially at the same time;

(ii) the liquidation or dissolution of such Subsidiary Guarantor; provided that no Event of Default occurs as a result

thereof or has occurred or is continuing;

(iii) upon exercise of the Legal Defeasance Option or Covenant Defeasance

Option, or the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the other Note Documents, in each case in accordance with Article 9;

(iv) if such Subsidiary Guarantor is an Immaterial Subsidiary (or would be deemed an Immaterial Subsidiary (as defined in the

First Lien Notes Indenture)) under the First Lien Notes Indenture; provided that no Event of Default occurs as a result thereof or has occurred or is continuing;

(v) upon the occurrence of the Termination Date subject to Section 11.05(D);

(vi) if such Subsidiary Guarantor is an Excluded Subsidiary or upon consummation of any transaction not prohibited hereunder

resulting in such Subsidiary Guarantor ceasing to constitute a Subsidiary or otherwise becoming an Excluded Subsidiary; or

(vii) in accordance with the terms of any Intercreditor Agreement.

(B) Upon delivery by the Issuer to the Trustee of an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that any of the

conditions described in Section 12.04(i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v) and (vi) has occurred and the conditions precedent to such transactions provided for in this Indenture have been

complied with, the Trustee shall promptly execute any documents reasonably requested by the Issuer in order to evidence the release of any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee. Any Subsidiary Guarantor not

released from its obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee shall remain liable for the full amount of principal of and interest, premium, if any, on, the Notes and for the other obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under this Indenture as

provided in this Article 12.

(C) Further, the Subsidiary Guarantees are not convertible and will automatically terminate when the

Notes are all converted in full in accordance with Article 5.

- 167 -

Section 12.05. INSTRUMENT FOR THE

PAYMENT OF MONEY.

(A) Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby acknowledges that the guarantee

in this Article 12 constitutes an instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that any Holder (to the extent that the Holder is otherwise entitled to exercise rights and remedies hereunder) or the Trustee, at its sole option,

in the event of a dispute by such Subsidiary Guarantor in the payment of any moneys due hereunder, shall have the right to bring a motion-action under New York CPLR Section 3213 to the extent permitted thereunder.

Section 12.06. LIMITATION ON SUBSIDIARY GUARANTOR LIABILITY.

(A) Each Subsidiary Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that

the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of any bankruptcy law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state

law or any comparable laws in any other jurisdiction to the extent applicable to any Subsidiary Guarantee. The Guaranteed Obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee will be limited to the maximum amount as will, after

giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations of

such other Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee or pursuant to its contribution obligations under this Indenture, result in the Guaranteed Obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee not constituting a

fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under federal or state law or any comparable laws in any other jurisdiction and not otherwise being void or voidable under any similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

Section 12.07. “TRUSTEE” TO INCLUDE PAYING AGENT.

(A) In case at any time any Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall have been appointed and be then acting hereunder, the term

“Trustee” as used in this Article 12 shall in each case (unless the context shall otherwise require) be construed as extending to and including such Paying Agent within its meaning as fully and for all intents and purposes as if

such Paying Agent were named in this Article 12 in place of the Trustee.

Article 13. MISCELLANEOUS

Section 13.01. NOTICES.

Any notice or communication by any Note Party or the Trustee, Collateral Agent and Note Agent to the other must be provided in writing and

will be deemed to have been duly given in writing if delivered in person or by first class mail (registered or certified, return receipt requested), facsimile transmission, electronic transmission or other similar means of unsecured electronic

communication or overnight air courier guaranteeing next day delivery, or to the other’s address, which initially is as follows:

If

to any Note Party:

Wolfspeed, Inc.

4600 Silicon Drive

Durham,

North Carolina 27703

Attention: General Counsel

Email: ***

- 168 -

If to the Trustee or Collateral Agent:

U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association

333 Commerce Street, Suite 900

Nashville, Tennessee 37201

Attention: Global Corporate Trust – Wolfspeed, Inc.

Facsimile No.: 615-251-0737

Any Note Party, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, by notice to the other, may designate additional or different addresses (including

facsimile numbers and electronic addresses) for subsequent notices or communications.

All notices and communications (other than those

sent to Holders) will be deemed to have been duly given: (A) at the time delivered by hand, if personally delivered; (B) five (5) Business Days after being deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, if mailed; (C) when receipt

acknowledged, if transmitted by facsimile, electronic transmission or other similar means of unsecured electronic communication; and (D) the next Business Day after timely delivery to the courier, if sent by overnight air courier guaranteeing

next day delivery.

All notices or communications required to be made to a Holder pursuant to this Indenture must be made in writing and

will be deemed to be duly sent or given in writing if mailed by first class mail, certified or registered, return receipt requested, or by overnight air courier guaranteeing next day delivery, to its address shown on the Register; provided,

however, that a notice or communication to a Holder of a Global Note may, but need not, instead be sent pursuant to the Depositary Procedures (in which case, such notice will be deemed to be duly sent or given in writing). The failure to send

a notice or communication to a Holder, or any defect in such notice or communication, will not affect its sufficiency with respect to any other Holder.

If the Trustee is then acting as the Depositary’s custodian for the Notes, then, at the reasonable request of the Issuer to the Trustee,

the Trustee will cause any notice prepared by the Issuer to be sent to any Holder(s) pursuant to the Depositary Procedures, provided such request is evidenced in a Issuer Order delivered, together with the text of such notice, to the Trustee

at least two (2) Business Days before the date such notice is to be so sent. For the avoidance of doubt, such Issuer Order need not be accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. The Trustee will not have any liability

relating to the contents of any notice that it sends to any Holder pursuant to any such Issuer Order.

If a notice or communication is

mailed or sent in the manner provided above within the time prescribed, it will be deemed to have been duly given, whether or not the addressee receives it.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or the Notes, (A) whenever any provision of this Indenture requires a party to

send notice to another party, no such notice need be sent if the sending party and the recipient are the same Person acting in different capacities; and (B) whenever any provision of this Indenture requires a party to send notice to more than

one receiving party, and each receiving party is the same Person acting in different capacities, then only one such notice need be sent to such Person.

- 169 -

Facsimile, documents executed, scanned and transmitted electronically and electronic

signatures, including those created or transmitted through a software platform or application, will be deemed original signatures for purposes of this Indenture and all matters and agreements related thereto, with such facsimile, scanned and

electronic signatures having the same legal effect as original signatures. The parties agree that this Indenture or any instrument, agreement or document necessary for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Indenture or related

hereto or thereto (including addendums, amendments, notices, instructions, communications with respect to the delivery of securities or the wire transfer of funds or other communications) (“Executed Documentation”) may be

accepted, executed or agreed to through the use of an electronic signature in accordance with applicable laws, rules and regulations in effect from time to time applicable to the effectiveness and enforceability of electronic signatures. Any

Executed Documentation accepted, executed or agreed to in conformity with such laws, rules and regulations will be binding on all parties to this Indenture to the same extent as if it were physically executed and each party hereby consents to the

use of any third- party electronic signature capture service providers as may be reasonably chosen by a signatory hereto or thereto. When the Trustee, Collateral Agent or a Note Agent acts on any Executed Documentation sent by electronic

transmission, the Trustee, Collateral Agent or Note Agent will not be responsible or liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from its reliance upon and compliance with such Executed Documentation, notwithstanding that

such Executed Documentation (A) may not be an authorized or authentic communication of the party involved or in the form such party sent or intended to send (whether due to fraud, distortion or otherwise); or (B) may conflict with, or be

inconsistent with, a subsequent written instruction or communication; it is understood and agreed that the Trustee, Collateral Agent and each Note Agent will conclusively presume that Executed Documentation that purports to have been sent by an

authorized officer of a Person has been sent by an authorized officer of such Person. The party providing Executed Documentation through electronic transmission or otherwise with electronic signatures agrees to assume all risks arising out of such

electronic methods, including the risk of the Trustee, Collateral Agent or a Note Agent acting on unauthorized instructions and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties.

continue to subsist where to do so would be expected to have an adverse effect on the ability of the grantor to conduct its operations and business (as determined in good faith by such grantor and the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of

Holders of the requisite principal amount of the Notes)) and, subject to the Collateral Agent’s determination that such matters will not adversely affect it (in consultation with local counsel and at the expense of the Issuer as set forth in

the Indenture) the Collateral Agent shall be required (and shall be pre-authorized) to issue a non-crystallization certificate (or

similar certificate) solely at the request of the applicable grantor in an Officer’s Certificate (a) that such non-crystallization certificate

(or similar certificate) is authorized or permitted by the Indenture (including, for purposes of clarity, this schedule), and (b) certifying that no event of default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) in any jurisdiction where all-asset/floating security is not available, (A) Material Real Property, (B) Material IP, (C) material bank accounts, (D) Equity Interests in Subsidiaries, (E) trade receivables,

(F) inventory (unless such grant would be expected to have an adverse effect on the ability of the grantor to conduct its operations and business (as determined in good faith by such grantor and the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of

Holders of the requisite principal amount of the Notes)) and (F) material intra-group receivables (“Material Intercompany Receivables”).

(b)

Without prejudice to paragraph (a) above, no guarantees shall be required to be granted by and no security

shall be required to be granted by (or over shares, ownership interests or investments in) any Person other than the Issuer and Subsidiaries thereof.

5.

Governing Law and Jurisdiction of Security

(a)

All security (other than share security) will be governed by the law of, and secure only assets located in,

(i) the jurisdiction of incorporation of the applicable grantor of the security (or, in respect of Equity Interests in a Subsidiary, the jurisdiction of incorporation of that person) and (ii) any other Foreign Collateral Jurisdiction.

(b)

No action in relation to security (including any perfection step, further assurance step, filing or

registration) will be required in jurisdictions other than (i) the jurisdiction where the grantor of security is incorporated and (ii) any other Foreign Collateral Jurisdiction, except as provided in Section 5(a) above insofar as it

contemplates that security over Equity Interests in Subsidiaries may not be subject to the governing law of the jurisdiction of incorporation of the applicable grantor of security (the “Relevant Share

Security”) in which case (and subject, for the avoidance of doubt, to the other provisions of these Agreed Security Principles) security may be perfected in, and only to the extent required by, the jurisdiction of incorporation

of the Subsidiary whose Equity Interests are subject to the Relevant Share Security.

6.

Excluded Jurisdictions

(a)

The guarantees and security to be provided under the Note Documents in accordance with the Agreed Security

Principles are only to be given by the Issuer and its Subsidiaries which are not incorporated in or organized in Japan, Turkey, Taiwan, Hungary, India, Italy, Switzerland, Dubai, Thailand, Philippines, Indonesia, China, Malaysia and any other

jurisdiction agreed between the Issuer and the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of Holders of the requisite principal amount of the Notes) (acting reasonably) (together, the “Excluded Jurisdictions”).

(b)

No guarantees shall be required to be given by and no security shall be required to be given by (or over

shares, ownership interests or investments in) any person incorporated in an Excluded Jurisdiction.

(c)

No guarantees or security shall be required to be governed by the law of, nor shall any security or perfection

steps be required to be taken in, any Excluded Jurisdiction.

7.

Terms of Security Documents

The following principles will be reflected in the terms of any security taken in connection with the Note Documents:

(a)

security will not be enforceable or crystallise until the Trustee has exercised its rights under the relevant

acceleration provisions of the Indenture to declare all or part of the applicable Note to be immediately due and payable (an “Applicable Acceleration Event”) which is continuing;

(b)

the beneficiaries of the security or any agent will only be able to exercise a power of attorney (or set-off granted to them under the terms of the Note Documents) following the occurrence of an Applicable Acceleration Event which is continuing;

(c)

notification of receivables security to debtors will only be given (i) with respect to material

receivables security and (ii) only if notice is required to perfect the Collateral Agent’s security interest in an applicable Foreign Jurisdiction;

(d)

the security documents should only operate to create security rather than to impose new commercial obligations

or repeat clauses in the Indenture (accordingly they should not contain additional representations, undertakings or indemnities (including in respect of insurance, information, inspections, limitations on dispositions, distributions or transfers,

maintenance or protection of assets or the payment of fees, costs and expenses)) except to the extent that these are: (1) the same as or consistent with those contained in the Indenture; and (2) required for the creation or perfection of

security;

(e)

notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Security Document, the terms of a Security Document shall not

operate or be construed so as to prohibit or restrict any transaction, matter or other step (or a grantor of security taking or entering into the same) or dealing in any manner whatsoever in relation to any asset (including all rights, claims,

benefits, proceeds and documentation, and contractual counterparties in relation thereto) the subject of (or expressed to be the subject of) the Security Document if not prohibited by the Indenture or where the consent of the Collateral Agent

(acting at the direction of Holders of the requisite principal amount of the Notes) has been obtained and, subject to the Collateral Agent’s and the Trustee’s determination that such matters will not adversely affect it (in consultation

with counsel) the Collateral Agent and the Trustee shall promptly enter into such documentation and/or take such other action as is required by a relevant Note Party (acting reasonably) in order to facilitate any such transaction, matter or other

step, including by way of executing any confirmation, consent to dealing, release or other similar or equivalent document, provided that any costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent entering into such documentation and/or

taking such other action at the request of such Note Party pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of such Note Party;

(f)

other than to the extent required by Section 7.14 of the Indenture, no control

agreement (or perfection by control or similar arrangements) or control, lockbox or similar arrangement shall be required with respect to any assets; provided that the foregoing shall not limit the requirement for notices to account banks;

(g)

Security Documents will, where possible and practical, automatically create security over future assets of the

applicable security provider of the same type as those already secured; where local law requires supplemental pledges or notices to be delivered in respect of future acquired assets in order for effective security to be created over that class of

asset, such supplemental pledges or notices will be provided only upon request of the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of Holders of the requisite principal amount of the Notes) and at intervals no more frequent than quarterly;

(h)

each Security Document must contain a clause which records that if there is a conflict between the security

document and the Indenture or (if applicable) any Intercreditor Agreement specifically entered into in connection with the Indenture then (to the fullest extent permitted by law) the provisions of the Indenture or (as applicable) the Intercreditor

Agreement will take priority over the provisions of the security document;

(i)

there will be no “fixed” security over fixed assets, insurance policies, Intellectual Property,

bank accounts, cash or receivables (other than Material Intercompany Receivables) or any obligation to hold or pay cash or receivables in a particular account until the occurrence of an Applicable Acceleration Event which is continuing; provided

that “fixed” security over bank accounts shall be required to the extent required by Section 7.14 of the Indenture;

(j)

all security shall only be given in favor of the Collateral Agent and not any other of the secured parties;

“parallel debt” provisions will be used where necessary; and

(k)

whether expressly so stated or not, the rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the

Collateral Agent or the Trustee, as applicable, under the Indenture, including, without limitation, its right to seek direction and be indemnified prior to taking action shall be deemed to be incorporated, mutatis mutandis in each security

document.

8.

Intercompany and Trade Receivables

(a)

Until an Applicable Acceleration Event has occurred and is continuing, any person will be free to deal with,

amend, waive, repay, prepay or terminate its Material Intercompany Receivables and trade receivables.

(b)

Until an Applicable Acceleration Event has occurred and is continuing, no lists of or other information in

respect of Material Intercompany Receivables or trade receivables will be required to be provided.

(c)

No security will be granted over any trade receivables which cannot be secured under the terms of the relevant

contract.

(d)

If required under local law, security over Material Intercompany Receivables will be registered subject to the

general principles set out in these Agreed Security Principles.

(e)

Any security over trade receivables (including any list of trade receivables required) shall be structured so

as not to cause the relevant Obligor to breach any data protection obligations owed by it in the underlying applicable contracts or under applicable law, and if such structuring is not possible (based on advice of external legal counsel), then such

security shall not be required.

9.

Equity Interests

(a)

Until an Applicable Acceleration Event has occurred and is continuing and Collateral Agent has given the

applicable shareholder written notice, the legal title of the Equity Interests (or equivalent ownership interests) subject to any Security Document will remain with the relevant grantor of the security (unless transfer of title on granting such

security is customary in the applicable jurisdiction).

(b)

Until an Applicable Acceleration Event has occurred and is continuing and Collateral Agent has given the

applicable shareholder written notice, any grantor of share security will be permitted to retain and to exercise all voting rights and powers in relation to any Equity Interests (or equivalent ownership interests) and other related rights charged by

it and receive, own and retain all assets and proceeds in relation thereto without restriction or condition. With respect to security over shares in a German company only, to the extent required under German law, the voting rights will remain with

the Obligor even after an Enforcement Event has occurred.

(c)

Where customary and applicable as a matter of law and following a request by the Collateral Agent (acting at

the direction of Holders of the requisite principal amount of the Notes), as soon as reasonably practicable (taking into account any stamping or other transfer requirements) following the granting of any share security over certificated Equity

Interests, the applicable Equity Interest certificate (or other documents evidencing title to the relevant Equity Interests) and a stock transfer form executed in blank (or applicable law equivalent) will be provided to the Collateral Agent.

(d)

No “fixed” security shall be required to be granted over any Equity Interests (or equivalent

ownership interest) in any person which are not directly owned by its immediate holding company.

(e)

If required under local law, security over Equity Interests (or equivalent ownership interests) will be

registered subject to the general principles set out in these Agreed Security Principles.

10.

Bank Accounts

(a)

Until an Applicable Acceleration Event or a Control Triggering Event (with respect to Controlled Accounts only)

has occurred and is continuing, any person will be free to deal, operate and transact business in relation to any bank accounts over which it grants security (including opening and closing accounts).

(b)

Until an Applicable Acceleration Event has occurred and is continuing, unless the Indenture expressly provide

for any specific account (by reference to its purpose) to be subject to specific restrictions on use, there will be:

(i)

no “fixed” security over bank accounts, cash or receivables (other than Material

Intercompany Receivables), except as required by Section 7.14 of the Indenture; and

(ii)

no obligation to hold, pay or sweep cash or receivables into a particular account.

(c)

Where “fixed” security is required, if required by local law to perfect that security and if

possible without disrupting operation of the account, notice of that security will be served on the account bank by the applicable grantor in relation to applicable accounts within ten (10) Business Days of the creation of that security and the

applicable grantor of that security will use its reasonable endeavors to obtain an acknowledgement of that notice within twenty (20) Business Days of service. If the grantor of that security has used its reasonable endeavors but has not been

able to obtain acknowledgement or acceptance, its obligation to obtain acknowledgement will cease on the expiry of that twenty (20) Business Day period. Irrespective of whether notice of that security is required for perfection, if the service

of notice would prevent any Foreign Subsidiary Guarantor from using a bank account in the course of its business, except as required by Section 7.14 of the Indenture, no notice of security will be served until the occurrence of an Applicable

Acceleration Event which is continuing.

(d)

Any security over bank accounts will be subject to any security interests in favour of the account bank which

are created either by law or in the standard terms and conditions of the account bank, whether created or arising before or after the security in favour of the Secured Parties has been given. No grantor of security will be required to change its

banking arrangements or standard terms and conditions in connection with the granting of bank account security.

(e)

No control agreements (or perfection by control or similar arrangements) shall be required with respect to any

Excluded Account.

(f)

If any bank account is required to be opened as a matter of local law in order to perfect any share security

required to be granted in accordance with these Agreed Security Principles (i) such bank account shall not be required to be opened prior to the date falling 90 days after such share security is granted and (ii) the Secured Parties

authorise, instruct and direct the Collateral Agent to, and the Collateral Agent shall, promptly subject to the Collateral Agent’s determination that such matters will not adversely affect it (in consultation with local counsel and at the

expense of the Issuer as set forth in the Indenture) enter into any documentation requested by the applicable account bank in connection with such security.

(g)

If required under applicable local law, security over bank accounts will be registered subject to the general

principles set out in these Agreed Security Principles.

(h)

If the consent of an account bank is required to grant security over a bank account, and such bank account is

not required to be subject to an Account Control Agreement by Section 7.14 of the Indenture, the relevant Foreign Subsidiary Guarantor shall use its commercially reasonable endeavours to attempt once to obtain the consent of the relevant

account bank. If the account bank is not willing to give such consent in the first instance, the Loan Party shall not be required to change its banking arrangements or to replace its account bank.

11.

Additional Principles

The Agreed Security Principles embody the recognition by all parties that there may be certain legal and practical difficulties in obtaining

effective or commercially reasonable guarantees and/or security from all relevant Foreign Subsidiaries in each jurisdiction in which it has been agreed that guarantees and security will be granted by those members. In particular:

(a)

general legal and statutory limitations, regulatory restrictions, financial assistance, anti-trust and other

competition authority restrictions, corporate benefit, fraudulent preference, equitable subordination, “transfer pricing”, “thin capitalisation” (and in particular, guarantees and security shall not result in

all or part of the Note Obligations being considered related debt for thin capitalisation purposes), “earnings stripping”, “exchange control restrictions”, “capital maintenance” rules and

“liquidity impairment” rules, tax restrictions, retention of title claims, employee consultation or approval requirements and similar principles may limit the ability of a Foreign Subsidiary to provide a guarantee or security or

may require that the guarantee or security be limited as to amount or otherwise and, if so, the guarantee or security will be limited accordingly, provided that, to the extent requested by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent (acting at the

direction of Holders of the requisite principal amount of the Notes) before signing any applicable security or accession document, the relevant Foreign Subsidiary shall use reasonable endeavors (for a period of not more than ten (10) Business

Days but without incurring material cost and without adverse impact on relationships with third parties) to overcome any such obstacle or otherwise such guarantee or Security Document shall be subject to such limit;

(b)

a key factor in determining whether or not a guarantee or security will be taken (and in respect of the

security, the extent of its perfection and/or registration) is the applicable time and cost (including adverse effects on taxes, interest deductibility, stamp duty, registration taxes, notarial costs guarantee fees payable to any person that is not

the Issuer or a Subsidiary thereof and all applicable legal fees) which will not be disproportionate to the benefit accruing to the Secured Parties of obtaining such guarantee or security, as determined in good faith by Issuer;

(c)

subject always to sections 4 and 6 above, Foreign Subsidiaries will not be required to give guarantees or enter

into Security Documents if it is not within the legal capacity of the relevant Foreign Subsidiary or if it would conflict with the fiduciary or statutory duties of their directors or contravene any applicable legal, regulatory or contractual

prohibition or restriction, require the consent of any legal or regulatory authority or contractual counterparty or have the potential to result in a material risk of personal or criminal liability for any director or officer of or for the Issuer or

any of its Subsidiaries, provided that, to the extent requested by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent (in each case, acting at the direction of Holders of the requisite principal amount of the Notes) before signing any applicable Security

Document or guaranty document, the relevant Foreign Subsidiary shall, in relation to a contractual restriction only, use reasonable endeavors (for a period of not more than ten (10) Business Days but without incurring material cost and without

adverse impact on relationships with third parties) to overcome any such obstacle or otherwise such guarantee or Security Document shall be subject to such limit;

(d)

it is expressly acknowledged that it may be either impossible or impractical to create security over certain

categories of assets, as determined in good faith by Issuer, in which event security will not be taken over such assets;

(e)

the giving of a guarantee, the granting of security and the registration and/or the perfection of the security

granted will not be required if it would have an adverse effect on the ability of the relevant Foreign Subsidiary to conduct its operations and business in the ordinary course as otherwise permitted by the Indenture (including dealing with the

secured assets and all contractual counterparties or amending, waiving or terminating (or allowing to lapse) any rights, benefits or obligations, in each case prior to an Applicable Acceleration Event which is continuing), and any requirement under

the Agreed Security Principles to seek consent of any person or take or not take any other action shall be subject to this paragraph (e);

(f)

any security document will only be required to be notarized if required by law in order for the relevant

security to become effective or admissible in evidence;

(g)

if not required by the laws of the applicable Foreign Jurisdiction, no title investigations or other diligence

on assets will be required and no title insurance will be required;

(h)

to the extent legally effective, all security will be given in favour of the Collateral Agent and not the

Secured Parties individually; “parallel debt” provisions will be used where necessary (and included in the Indenture and not the individual security documents);

(i)

neither the Issuer nor any Subsidiary will be required to take any action in relation to any guarantees or

security as a result of any assignment, sub-participation or transfer by a Secured Party (and neither the Issuer nor any Subsidiary shall bear or otherwise be liable for any taxes, any notarial registration or

perfection fees or any other costs, fees or expenses that result from any assignment, sub-participation or transfer by a Secured Party);

(j)

other than a general security agreement and related filing, no perfection, filing or other action will be

required with respect to assets of a type not owned by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Guarantor;

(k)

no translation of any document relating to any security or any asset subject to any security will be required

to be prepared or provided to the Secured Parties (or any agent or similar representative appointed by them at the relevant time) unless (i) required for such documents to become effective or admissible in evidence, and (ii) an Applicable

Acceleration Event is continuing; provided, however, if the Collateral Agent or the Trustee is asked to sign a document in a language other than English, a courtesy translation shall be provided at the expense of the Issuer (upon which

translation the Collateral Agent shall conclusively rely); and

(l)

no security shall be required to be provided over any of the following property:

(i)

any Real Property other than Material Real Property;

(ii)

(x) motor vehicles and other assets subject to certificates of title and letter of credit rights (in each case,

other than to the extent a Lien on such assets or such rights can be perfected by filing of a general notice filing or similar) and (y) commercial tort claims with a value of less than $10,000,000;

(iii)

pledges and security interests prohibited by applicable law, rule, regulation or contractual obligation (with

respect to any such contractual obligation, only to the extent such restriction is permitted under Section 8.09(c) of the Indenture and such restriction is binding on such assets on the Closing Date or on the date of

acquisition thereof and not entered into in contemplation thereof (and renewals and replacements thereof) (in each case, except to the extent such prohibition is unenforceable after giving effect to the anti-assignment provisions of applicable law)

or which would require governmental (including regulatory) consent, approval, license or authorization to be pledged (unless such consent, approval, license or authorization has been received);

(iv)

assets to the extent a security interest in such assets could reasonably be expected to result in material

adverse tax consequences as determined in good faith by the Issuer in consultation with the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of Holders of the requisite principal amount of the Notes);

(v)

any lease, license or other agreement to the extent that a grant of a security interest therein would violate

or invalidate such lease, license or agreement or create a right of termination in favor of any other party thereto (other than the Issuer or any Subsidiary thereof) after giving effect to the anti-assignment provisions of applicable law;

(vi)

those assets as to which the Issuer and the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of Holders of the

requisite principal amount of the Notes) reasonably agree that the cost or other consequence of obtaining such a security interest or perfection thereof are excessive in relation to the value afforded thereby;

(vii)

any governmental licenses or state or local franchises, charters or authorizations, to the extent a security

interest in such licenses, franchises, charters or authorizations is prohibited or restricted thereby after giving effect to the anti-assignment provisions of applicable law;

(viii)

pending “intent to use” trademark applications for which an Amendment to Allege Use or a Statement

of Use under Section 1(c) or 1(d) of the Lanham Act has not been filed with or accepted by the United States Trademark Office;

(ix)

any Excluded Account and any cash and Permitted Investments maintained in an Excluded Account;

(x)

any Excluded Securities;

(xi)

any Third Party Funds;

(xii)

any equipment or other real or personal property or asset that is subject to a Lien permitted by clause

(i) of Section 8.02 of the Indenture if permitted by Section 8.01 of the Indenture, if the agreement governing such Lien (or the Indebtedness secured thereby) prohibits or

requires the consent of any person (other than the Issuer or any Subsidiary thereof) as a condition to the creation of any other security interest on such equipment or other real or personal property or asset and, in each case, such prohibition or

requirement is permitted hereunder after giving effect to the applicable anti-assignment provisions of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code; and

(xiii)

any other property mutually agreed upon between the Issuer and the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of

Holders of the requisite principal amount of the Notes).

12.

Amendment

In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between any term of these Agreed Security Principles and any term of a Security Document, the

Secured Parties authorise, instruct and direct the Collateral Agent and the Trustee to, and the Collateral Agent and Trustee shall promptly (at the option and upon request of Issuer) and in accordance with Article XIII of the Indenture, enter into

such amendments to such Security Document as shall be necessary or desirable to cure such conflict or inconsistency.

Indebtedness (other than interest rates, fees, floors, funding discounts and redemption or prepayment premiums and other pricing terms) are substantially similar to, or not more restrictive to the Issuer and its Subsidiaries than, the terms

applicable to the Notes (except for (1) covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the Maturity Date or (2) those that are otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Issuer and the Required Noteholder Parties (or, if more

restrictive, the Note Documents are amended, prior to or concurrently with such Refinancing, to contain such more restrictive terms to the extent required to satisfy the foregoing standard)), (g) at the time of such Refinancing, no Default or Event

of Default shall have occurred or be continuing and (h) no Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness shall permit or require scheduled interest payments in cash in excess of 10.00% per annum (with variable interest rates converted to fixed rates based

such assets and such Indebtedness or other obligations is subject to an Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement (for the avoidance of doubt the parties agree that if first-priority Liens on the Siler City Assets were granted pursuant to either of the

foregoing clauses, the Liens securing the Second-Priority Obligations (as defined in the First Lien/Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement) or the 1.5-Priority Obligations (as defined in the First Lien/1.5 Lien

have the right to issue such notice only upon and during the continuance of any Control Triggering Event) (such eligible cash and Permitted Investments, the “Qualified Cash”). The Note Parties shall not at any time knowingly

allow, or knowingly take any action to cause, the amount of Qualified Cash held by the Note Parties to be below the amount which would be required by this Section 8.11 as of the last day of the current calendar month

(including as a result of the cash and Permitted Investments held by the Note Parties not satisfying the requirements of this Section 8.11). To the extent that the Note Parties have actual knowledge that the amount of

Qualified Cash held by the Note Parties at any time is below the amount which would be required by this Section 8.11 as of the last day of the current calendar month (including as a result of any cash and Permitted

Investments held by the Note Parties not satisfying the requirements of this Section 8.11), (x) except for the making of any payments or deposits required to operate the Issuer’s business in the ordinary course and

(n) The second

paragraph of Section 15.09 of the Existing Indenture is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

“The Noteholder Parties and the other Secured Parties hereby authorize and instruct

enter into (or acknowledge and consent to) any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement that is contemplated by Section 8.02(j) or any Permitted Junior Intercreditor Agreement that is contemplated by Sections 8.02(w) or

8.02(y) with the collateral agent or other representatives of the holders of Indebtedness or other obligations that is to be secured by a Lien on the Collateral that is expressly permitted (including with respect to priority) under this

Indenture and to subject the Liens on the Collateral securing the Note Obligations to the provisions thereof. The Noteholder Parties and the other Secured Parties agree that (x) the Trustee and the Collateral Agent may rely exclusively on an

Officer’s Certificate of the Issuer as to whether any such other Liens are expressly permitted and that all covenants and conditions precedent to the execution of such Intercreditor Agreement have been complied with and (y) any

Intercreditor Agreement entered into by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent in compliance with the terms of this Indenture shall be binding on the Secured Parties, and each Noteholder Party and the other Secured Parties hereby agrees that it will

or other obligations expressly permitted by Section 8.01 hereof to extend credit to the Note Parties and such persons are intended third-party beneficiaries of such provisions. For the avoidance of doubt, this

Section 15.09 shall not limit in any manner the right of the Required Noteholder Parties to reasonably agree to the form and substance of any Intercreditor Agreement.”

(o) Section 15.11(a) of the Existing Indenture is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

“(a) (i) Each Noteholder Party, by its signature hereto or acceptance of Notes, consents and agrees to the terms of each

Security Document and each Intercreditor Agreement as originally in effect and as amended, supplemented or replaced from time to time in accordance with its terms or the terms of this Indenture, authorizes and directs the Trustee and/or the

Collateral Agent to enter into each Intercreditor Agreement permitted by the terms of this Indenture and the Security Documents to which it is a party, authorizes and empowers the Trustee to direct the Collateral Agent to enter into, and the

Collateral Agent to execute and deliver, the Security Documents and each Intercreditor Agreement permitted hereunder and authorizes and empowers the Trustee and the Collateral Agent to bind the holders of Notes and other holders of Note Obligations

as set forth in the Security Documents to which it is a party and each Intercreditor Agreement permitted hereunder and to perform its obligations and exercise its rights and powers thereunder;

(ii) The Trustee is directed to consent to the Issuer’s request to designate the 1.5 Lien Convertible Notes as Other

First-Priority Obligations (as defined in the First Lien/Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement), as set forth in the First Lien/Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement.”

3. Waiver to Existing Indenture. Section 3.01(d) of the Existing Indenture requires that prior to any optional

redemption of the Notes pursuant to Section 3.02(a) of the Existing Indenture, a notice of redemption must be delivered, at least ten (10) days but nor more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Noteholder of

the Notes to be redeemed. Solely with respect to such notice of redemption to be delivered in connection with the incurrence of the 1.5 Lien Convertible Notes, such ten (10) day requirement is waived and replaced with a five (5) day

requirement.

expressly amended hereby, the Existing Indenture is in all respects ratified and confirmed and all the terms, conditions and provisions thereof shall remain in full force and effect. This Supplemental Indenture shall form a part of the Indenture for

grants of security interests and other obligations, as applicable, under and subject to the terms of each of the Note Documents to which it is party, and (iii) agrees that, notwithstanding the effectiveness of this Supplemental Indenture or any

of the transactions contemplated thereby, such guarantees, pledges, grants of security interests and other obligations, and the terms of each of the Note Documents to which it is a party, are not impaired or adversely affected in any manner

whatsoever and shall continue to be in full force and effect and shall continue to guaranty and secure in accordance with their respective terms all of the Note Obligations as amended, restated, increased and/or extended. In furtherance of the

foregoing, each Note Party (a) does hereby continue to grant to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in all collateral (howsoever defined) described in any Security Document as security for the Note

Exhibit 99.1

Strategic Refinancing and New Equity Issuance Support Wolfspeed’s

Long-term Growth Potential

Reduces Senior Secured Note Balance by approximately $475.9 Million

Funding Led by T. Rowe Price accounts, Fidelity Management & Research Company, and other New and Existing Institutional Investors

Signals Confidence in Company’s Long-Term Growth Potential

Transaction Summary:

Issues $379 million aggregate principal amount of new 3.5% Convertible 1.5 Lien Senior Secured Notes due

2031

Issues approximately $96.9 million of common stock and pre-funded

warrants, all issued at a 10% premium over the closing price of March 18, 2026

Aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $475.9 million used to reduce existing Senior Secured Notes

balance by approximately 43%

Reduces total debt by approximately $97 million

Expected to lower annual interest expense by approximately $62 million

DURHAM, N.C. March 26, 2026 — Wolfspeed, Inc. (NYSE: WOLF) (“Wolfspeed” or the “Company”), a

global leader in silicon carbide technology, today announced the closing of its previously announced private placements of convertible notes, common stock, and pre-funded warrants (the “Private

Placements”). In connection with the Private Placements, the Company redeemed approximately $475.9 million of the Company’s outstanding Senior Secured Notes due 2030 (the “Senior Secured Notes”), which is expected to

lower annual interest expense by approximately $62 million and total debt by approximately $97 million.

This reduction reflects the completion

of the Company’s previously announced Private Placements of (i) $379 million aggregate principal amount of 3.5% Convertible 1.5 Lien Senior Secured Notes due 2031 (the “Notes”) and (ii) 3,250,030 shares of

common stock (the “Shares”) and pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase up to 2,000,000 shares of Wolfspeed’s common

stock. The Shares were priced at $18.458 per share, representing a 10% premium to the closing price on March 18, 2026. The price per Pre-Funded Warrant was $18.448. Each

Pre-Funded Warrant is exercisable at the option of the holder of such Pre-Funded Warrant for the purchase of one share of the Company’s common stock at an exercise

price of $0.01 per share, subject to ownership limitations and customary anti-dilution adjustments.

The aggregate gross proceeds from the Private

Placements were used to redeem approximately $475.9 million of the Company’s outstanding Senior Secured Notes. The Company concurrently paid the related premiums, accrued interest, fees and expenses of such redemption of the Senior

Secured Notes and the placement agent, financial advisor and legal fees, and other expenses, associated with the Private Placements with cash on hand.

The Private Placements were backed by a strong syndicate of investors, including accounts advised by T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. and Fidelity

Management & Research Company, together with several other notable new and existing anchor investors, reflecting confidence in the Company’s market opportunity and in the strategic role of silicon carbide in enabling next generation

technologies.

The Company believes that the Private Placements mark an important step forward in Wolfspeed’s capital optimization strategy.

“We believe this refinancing reflects strong confidence in Wolfspeed’s technology leadership and

the long-term growth potential for silicon carbide, demonstrated by the support of new and current institutional investors, including T. Rowe Price investors, among other notable anchor investors, collaborating on this financing,” said Gregor

van Issum, Wolfspeed’s Chief Financial Officer. “It also builds on the actions we have already taken to strengthen our balance sheet and represents continued execution against the strategic priorities we have previously outlined,

including strict financial discipline, as this transaction has enabled us to reduce our total debt, and to a greater extent, our annual interest expense.”

van Issum continued, “With this stronger financial foundation, we believe we are well positioned to accelerate innovation across our silicon carbide

solutions, including 300mm silicon carbide wafers to potentially support next-generation AI computing platforms and immersive AR/VR systems, while continuing to advance our long-term growth strategy and reinforcing Wolfspeed’s position as a

pioneer in silicon carbide technology.”

The Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture (the “Indenture”), dated March 26, 2026,

between Wolfspeed, Wolfspeed Texas LLC and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee and collateral agent.

The Notes bear interest at a

rate of 3.5% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, and mature on March 15, 2031, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. Upon conversion, the Notes may be settled in cash,

shares of Wolfspeed’s common stock or a combination thereof, at Wolfspeed’s election.

Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Wells Fargo

Securities, LLC and William Blair & Company L.L.C. acted as placement agents to Wolfspeed in connection with the Private Placements. J. Wood Capital Advisors LLC acted as a financial advisor to Wolfspeed.

The Notes, Shares and Pre-Funded Warrants were issued in a private placement to qualified institutional buyers

pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The securities (and the shares of Wolfspeed’s common stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes or exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants) sold in the Private Placements have not been registered under the Securities Act, or any state or other applicable jurisdiction’s securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the

United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state or other jurisdictions’ securities laws. Wolfspeed has agreed to file a registration statement with the

U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) registering the resale of the Shares and shares of Wolfspeed’s common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants sold in

the Private Placements.

This press release does not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, the securities, nor will there

be any sale of such securities, in any state or other jurisdiction in which such offer, sale or solicitation would be unlawful.

Forward Looking Statements:

This press release contains forward-looking statements involving risks and uncertainties, both known and unknown, that may cause Wolfspeed’s actual

results to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain, including estimates, forecasts, and projections about possible

or assumed future results of Wolfspeed’s business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, plans, and objectives and Wolfspeed’s industry and market growth. Words such as “could,” “will,”

“may,” “assume,” “forecast,” “position,” “predict,” “strategy,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate,” “anticipate,”

“believe,” “project,” “budget,” “potential,” “forward” or “continue” and similar expressions are used to identify forward-looking statements. All statements in this press

release that are not historical are forward-looking statements, including statements regarding Wolfspeed’s long-term growth potential, Wolfspeed’s position in the industry, the expected strength of Wolfspeed’s capital structure,

and Wolfspeed’s ability to design and sell products for new industries. Actual results could differ materially due to a number of factors,

including but not limited to, risks and uncertainties associated with Wolfspeed’s recent emergence from Chapter 11 bankruptcy, including the potential effects on Wolfspeed’s

relationship with its various stakeholders, including customers, vendors, contractors, employees or suppliers, its ability to attract, motivate, and/or retain management and key personnel, its ability to retain customers, and third parties willing

to do business with Wolfspeed on acceptable terms or at all; ongoing uncertainty in global economic and geopolitical conditions, such as the ongoing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine, conflict in the Middle East and developments

related to Latin America and the Arctic region; changes in progress on infrastructure development or changes in customer or industrial demand that could negatively affect product demand, including as a result of an economic slowdown or recession,

collectability of receivables and other related matters if consumers and businesses defer purchases or payments, or default on payments; risks associated with Wolfspeed’s expansion plans, including design and construction delays, cost

overruns, the timing and amount of government incentives actually received, including, among other things, any direct grants and tax credits, issues in installing and qualifying new equipment and ramping production, poor production process yields

and quality control, and potential increases to Wolfspeed’s restructuring costs; Wolfspeed’s ability to obtain additional funding as needed, including, among other things, from government funding, public or private equity offerings, or

debt financings, on favorable terms and on a timely basis, if at all; the risk that Wolfspeed does not meet its production commitments to those customers who provide Wolfspeed with capacity reservation deposits or similar payments; the risk that

Wolfspeed may experience production difficulties that preclude it from shipping sufficient quantities to meet customer orders or that result in higher production costs, lower yields and lower margins; Wolfspeed’s ability to lower costs; the

risk that Wolfspeed’s results will suffer if it is unable to balance fluctuations in customer demand and capacity, including bringing on additional capacity on a timely basis to meet customer demand or scaling back its manufacturing expenses

or overhead costs quickly enough to correspond to lower than expected demand; the risk that longer manufacturing lead times may cause customers to fulfill their orders with a competitor’s products instead; product mix; risks associated with

the ramp-up of production of Wolfspeed’s new products, and Wolfspeed’s entry into new business channels different from those in which it has historically operated; Wolfspeed’s ability to

convert customer design-ins to design-wins and sales of significant volume, and, if customer design-in activity does result in such sales, when such sales will

ultimately occur and what the amount of such sales will be; the risk that the markets for Wolfspeed’s products will not develop as Wolfspeed expects, including the adoption of Wolfspeed’s products by electric vehicle manufacturers and

the overall adoption of electric vehicles and our ability to diversify our end markets in medium- to high-voltage verticals such as AI datacenters; the risk that the economic and political uncertainty caused by the tariffs imposed or announced by

the United States on imported goods, and corresponding tariffs and other retaliatory measures imposed by other countries (including China) in response, may continue to negatively impact demand for Wolfspeed’s products; the risk that Wolfspeed

or its channel partners are not able to develop and expand customer bases and accurately anticipate demand from end customers, including production and product mix, which can result in increased inventory and reduced orders as Wolfspeed experiences

wide fluctuations in supply and demand; risks related to international sales and purchases; risks resulting from the concentration of Wolfspeed’s business among few customers, including the risk that customers may reduce or cancel orders or

fail to honor purchase commitments; the risk that Wolfspeed’s investments may experience periods of significant market value and interest rate volatility causing it to recognize fair value losses on Wolfspeed’s investment; the risk posed

by managing an increasingly complex supply chain (including managing the impacts of supply constraints in the semiconductor industry and meeting purchase commitments under

take-or-pay arrangements with certain suppliers) that has the ability to supply a sufficient quantity of raw materials, subsystems and finished products with the

required specifications and quality; risks relating to outbreaks of infectious diseases or similar public health events, including the risk of disruptions to Wolfspeed’s operations, supply chain, including its contract manufacturers, or

customer demand; the risk Wolfspeed may be required to record a significant charge to earnings if its amortizable assets become impaired; risks relating to confidential information theft or misuse, including through cyber-attacks or cyber intrusion;

Wolfspeed’s ability to complete development and commercialization of products under development; the rapid development of new technology and competing products that may impair demand or render Wolfspeed’s products obsolete; the potential

lack of customer acceptance for Wolfspeed’s products; risks associated with ongoing litigation; the risk that customers do not maintain their favorable perception of Wolfspeed’s brand and products, resulting in lower demand for its

products; the risk that Wolfspeed’s products fail to perform or fail to meet customer requirements or expectations, resulting in significant additional costs; risks associated with strategic transactions; the risk that Wolfspeed is not able to

successfully execute or achieve the potential benefits of Wolfspeed’s efforts to enhance its value; and other factors discussed in Wolfspeed’s filings with the SEC, including Wolfspeed’s report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 29, 2025, and subsequent reports filed with the SEC. These forward-looking statements represent Wolfspeed’s judgment as of the date of this press release. Except as

required under the U.S. federal securities laws and the rules and regulations of the SEC, Wolfspeed disclaims any intent or obligation to update any forward-looking statements after the date of this press release, whether as a result of new

information, future events, developments, changes in assumptions or otherwise.
