THE NOTES

Section 2.01. Amount of Notes. The aggregate principal amount of Notes which may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is unlimited, subject to compliance with Sections 2.03 and 4.04. All Notes shall be identical in all respects other than issue prices, issuance dates and with respect to interest payable on the first interest payment date after issuance.

Subject to Section 2.03, the Trustee shall authenticate the Original Notes for original issue on the Issue Date. With respect to any Notes issued after the Issue Date (except for Notes authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, Original Notes pursuant to Section 2.07, 2.08, 2.09 or 3.06 or Appendix A), the Issuer may issue such Notes but only in compliance with Section 2.03.

Section 2.02. Form and Dating. Provisions relating to the Notes are set forth in Appendix A, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made part of this Indenture. The Notes and the certificate of authentication included therein shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Indenture. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule, agreements to which the Issuer or any Guarantor is subject, if any, or usage, provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form reasonably acceptable to the Issuer. Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. The terms of the Notes set forth in Exhibit A are part of the terms of this Indenture. The Notes shall be issuable in denominations of €100,000 and integral multiples of €1,000 in excess thereof.

Section 2.03. Execution and Authentication. Two Officers shall sign the Notes for the Issuer by manual or facsimile signature.

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

At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Issuer may deliver Notes executed by the Issuer to the Trustee for authentication. The Trustee will authenticate and deliver:

(a) (i) Original Notes for original issue in the aggregate principal amount not to exceed €650.0 million, and (ii) Additional Notes from time to time for original issue in aggregate principal amounts specified by the Issuer, after the following conditions have been met:

(A) Receipt by the Trustee of an Officers’ Certificate (which shall include the statement specified in Section 12.04) specifying

(1) the amount of Notes to be authenticated and the date on which the Notes are to be authenticated,

(2) in the case of Additional Notes, that the issuance of such Notes does not contravene Section 4.04,

(3) whether the Notes are to be issued as one or more Global Notes or Definitive Notes, and

(4) other information the Issuer may determine to include or the Trustee may reasonably request.

(B) In the case of Additional Notes that are not fungible with the Original Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such Additional Notes shall bear a different ISIN number, and the Trustee shall receive an Opinion of Counsel that conforms with the requirements of Section 12.05 hereof and states that such Additional Notes are the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Issuer, enforceable against the Issuer in accordance with their terms.

A Note shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee (or an Authentication Agent as described below) manually signs the certificate of authentication on the Note. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture.

The Trustee may appoint an Authentication Agent reasonably acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate any Notes. Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an instrument signed by a Trust Officer, a copy of which shall be furnished to the Issuer. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, an Authentication Agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An Authentication Agent has the same rights as any Registrar, Paying Agent or agent for service of notices and demands.

Section 2.04. Registrar and Paying Agent. The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the “Registrar”) and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (the “Paying Agent”). The Issuer will also maintain a paying agent in each place of payment. The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Issuer may have one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrars. The term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agents.

The Issuer initially appoints The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch, to act as common depositary for Euroclear and Clearstream with respect to the Global Notes. Neither the Trustee nor any Agent shall have responsibility for any actions taken or not taken by Euroclear and Clearstream.

The Issuer may enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Registrar, Paying Agent or co-registrar not a party to this Indenture. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of any such agent. If the Issuer fails to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 7.07. The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent, Registrar, co-registrar.

Initially, the Trustee will act as Registrar and The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch, will act as Paying Agent with regard to the Notes.

The Issuer may remove any Registrar or Paying Agent upon written notice to such Registrar or Paying Agent and to the Trustee; provided, however, that no such removal shall become effective until (i) if applicable, acceptance of an appointment by a successor Registrar or Paying Agent, as the case may be, as evidenced by an appropriate agreement entered into by the Issuer and such successor Registrar or Paying Agent, as the case may be, and delivered to the Trustee or (ii) notification to the Trustee that the Trustee shall serve as Registrar or Paying Agent until the appointment of a successor in accordance with clause (i) above. The Registrar or Paying Agent may resign at any time upon written notice to the Issuer and the Trustee; provided, however, that the Trustee may resign as Paying Agent or Registrar only if the Trustee also resigns as Trustee in accordance with Section 7.08.

Section 2.05. Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. Prior to 10:00 a.m., London time, on any due date of the principal and interest on any Note, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such principal and interest when so becoming due. The Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Noteholders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of or interest on the Notes and shall notify the Trustee in writing of any default by the Issuer in making any such payment. If the Issuer or a Subsidiary thereof acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money held by it as Paying Agent and hold it in trust for the benefit of Persons entitled thereto. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by the Paying Agent. Upon complying with this Section, the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the Trustee.

Section 2.06. Noteholder Lists. The Registrar shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Noteholders. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish, or cause the

Registrar to furnish, to the Trustee, in writing at least five Business Days before each interest payment date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of Noteholders.

Section 2.07. Replacement Notes. If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder of a Note claims that such Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note, if the requirements of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code are met, such that the Holder (a) satisfies the Issuer and the Trustee within a reasonable time after such Holder has notice of such loss, destruction or wrongful taking and the Registrar does not register a transfer prior to receiving such notification, (b) makes such request to the Issuer and the Trustee prior to the Note being acquired by a protected purchaser as defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code (a “protected purchaser”) and (c) satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Issuer, Trustee and/or the Authentication Agent, as applicable. If required by the Trustee or the Issuer, such Holder shall furnish an indemnity bond sufficient in the judgment of the Issuer and the Trustee (and the Paying Agent, Registrar and Authentication Agent, if not the Trustee) to protect the Issuer, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar, any co-registrar and the Authentication Agent, as applicable, from any loss or liability which any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuer and the Trustee may charge the Holder for their expenses in replacing a Note (including without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements in replacing such Note). In the event any such mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Issuer in its discretion may pay such Note instead of issuing a new Note in replacement thereof.

Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Issuer.

The provisions of this Section 2.07 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies of the Holders with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Notes.

Section 2.08. Outstanding Notes. Notes outstanding at any time are all Notes authenticated by the Trustee, except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this Section as not outstanding. Subject to Section 12.06, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds the Note.

If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee and the Issuer receive proof satisfactory to them that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser.

If the Paying Agent segregates and holds in trust, in accordance with this Indenture, on a redemption date or maturity date money sufficient to pay all principal, interest and any Additional Amounts, if any, payable on that date with respect to the Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed or maturing, as the case may be, then on and after that date, such Notes (or portions thereof) cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue.

Section 2.09. Temporary Notes. Until definitive Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of Definitive Notes but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Notes. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Notes and deliver them in exchange for temporary Notes.

Section 2.10. Cancellation. The Issuer at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel and dispose of all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation in its customary manner. The Issuer may not issue new Notes to replace Notes it has redeemed, paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, except pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.

Section 2.11. Defaulted Interest. If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, the Issuer shall pay the defaulted interest (plus interest on such defaulted interest to the extent lawful) in any lawful manner. The Issuer may pay the defaulted interest to the Persons who are Noteholders on a subsequent special record date. The Issuer shall fix or cause to be fixed any such special record date and payment date to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee and shall promptly deliver to each affected Noteholder a notice that states the special record date, the payment date and the amount of defaulted interest to be paid.

Section 2.12. ISIN or Common Code Numbers. The Issuer in issuing the Notes may use “ISIN” or “Common Code” numbers (if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee shall use “ISIN” or “Common Code” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that neither the Issuer nor the Trustee shall have any responsibility for any defect in the “ISIN” or “Common Code” number that appears on any Note, check, advice of payment or redemption notice, and any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in such numbers.

ARTICLE 3

If the Issuer elects to redeem Notes pursuant to paragraph 5 or 7 of the Notes, it shall notify the Trustee in writing of the Redemption Date, the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and that such redemption is being made pursuant to paragraph 5 or 7 of the Notes.

Such notice shall be accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel from the Issuer to the effect that such redemption will comply with the conditions herein.

Section 3.02. Selection of Notes to be Redeemed. If fewer than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be redeemed by lot; provided that if the Notes are in global form, interests in such Global Notes will be selected for redemption by the applicable Common Depositary in accordance with Euroclear and Clearstream’s standard procedures therefor. The Trustee shall make the selection from outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption. The Trustee may select for redemption portions of the principal of Notes that have denominations larger than €100,000. Notes and portions of them the Trustee selects shall be in amounts of €100,000 or a whole multiple of €1,000 in excess thereof. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption. The Trustee shall notify the Issuer in writing promptly of the Notes or portions of Notes to be redeemed.

Section 3.03. Notice of Redemption. At least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a date for redemption of Notes pursuant to paragraph 5 or 7 of the Notes (such date, a “Redemption Date”), the Issuer shall mail, or cause to be mailed, a notice of redemption by first-class mail, and in the case of Notes held in book-entry form, by electronic transmission, to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed.

The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed (including any ISIN number or Common Code) and shall state:

(a) the Redemption Date;

(b) the redemption price or the information specified in clause (c) of paragraph 5 of the Notes and Additional Amounts, if any;

(g) if the notice is conditioned upon one or more conditions precedent, a description of such conditions, and a statement that, in the Issuer’s discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Issuer in its sole discretion), or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied (or waived) by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date so delayed; and

(h) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the ISIN or Common Code number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes.

At the Issuer’s written request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Issuer’s name and at the Issuer’s expense. In such event, any such request shall be received in writing by the Trustee at least five Business Days prior to the date on which such notice is to be given unless the Trustee consents to a shorter period. Any such notice may be canceled if written notice from the Issuer of such cancellation is actually received by the Trustee on the Business Day immediately prior to notice of such redemption being mailed to any Noteholder or otherwise delivered in accordance with the applicable procedures of Euroclear and Clearstream and shall thereby be void and of no effect.

If the Issuer elects to provide, in lieu of the redemption price, the information specified in clause (c) of paragraph 5 of the Notes in the notice of redemption, the Trustee shall give the notice of the redemption price, in the Issuer’s name and at the Issuer’s expense, one Business Day prior to the Redemption Date.

Subject to satisfaction of any conditions precedent specified in such notice, once notice of redemption is mailed or otherwise delivered, Notes called for redemption become due and payable on the Redemption Date and at the redemption price stated in the notice. Upon surrender to the applicable Paying Agent, such Notes shall be paid at the redemption price stated in the notice, plus accrued and unpaid interest and any Additional Amounts, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the related interest payment date). Failure to give notice or any defect in the notice to any Holder shall not affect the validity of the notice to any other Holder.

Section 3.05. Deposit of Redemption Price. On or prior to 10:00 a.m. London time on the Redemption Date, the Issuer shall deposit with the applicable Paying Agent (or, if the Issuer or a Subsidiary thereof is the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) money in euros sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued and unpaid interest and any Additional Amounts, if any (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the related interest payment date) on all Notes to be redeemed on that date other than Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption that have been delivered by the Issuer to the Trustee for cancellation.

Upon the deposit of funds sufficient to pay the Special Redemption Price of all Notes to be redeemed on the Special Redemption Date with the Paying Agent no later than the Business Day prior to such Special Redemption Date, the Notes will cease to bear interest and all rights under the Notes shall terminate. The Escrow Issuer will not be required to make a Special Redemption following the Release. After payment of the Special Redemption Price to the Holders of the Notes, any excess Escrow Property will be returned to the Issuer.

ARTICLE 4

COVENANTS

Section 4.01. Covenant Suspension. During any period of time from and after the Escrow Release Date that:

(a) the Notes have Investment Grade Ratings from both Rating Agencies, and

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

the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to the following Sections of this Indenture: Section 4.04, Section 4.05, Section 4.07, Section 4.08, Section 4.09, clause (x) of the fourth paragraph of Section 4.10 and clause (e) of Section 5.02 (collectively, the “Suspended Covenants”). In the event that the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to the Suspended Covenants for any period of time as a result of the preceding sentence and, subsequently, one or both of the Rating Agencies withdraws its ratings or downgrades the ratings assigned to the Notes below the required Investment Grade Ratings or a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing (the date of such ratings withdrawal or downgrade or the occurrence of such Default or Event of Default, the “Reversion Date”), then the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries will thereafter again be subject to the Suspended Covenants for all periods after that withdrawal, downgrade, Default or Event of Default and, furthermore, compliance with the provisions of Section 4.05 with respect to Restricted Payments made after the time of the withdrawal, downgrade, Default or Event of Default will be calculated in accordance with the terms of that covenant as though that covenant had been in effect during the entire period of time from the Issue Date, provided that there will not be deemed to have occurred a Default or Event of Default with respect to that covenant during the time (the “Suspension Period”) that the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries were not subject to the Suspended Covenants (or after that time based solely on events that occurred during that time). Accordingly, Restricted Payments made during the Suspension Period will reduce the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under the first paragraph of Section 4.05. The Company will promptly give the Trustee written notice of any such suspension of covenants and in any event not later than five Business Days after such suspension has occurred. In the absence of such notice, the Trustee shall assume that the Suspended Covenants are in full force and effect.

Solely for the purpose of determining the amount of Permitted Liens under Section 4.06 during any Suspension Period and without limiting the Company’s or any Restricted Subsidiary’s ability to Incur Debt during any Suspension Period, to the extent that calculations in Section 4.06 refer to Section 4.04, such calculations shall be made as though Section 4.04 remains in effect during the Suspension Period. On the Reversion Date, all Debt Incurred during the Suspension Period will be classified to have been Incurred pursuant to Section 4.04(a) or one of the clauses set forth in the definition of “Permitted Debt” in Section 4.04 (to the extent such Debt would be permitted to be Incurred thereunder as of the Reversion Date and after giving effect to Debt Incurred prior to the Suspension Period and outstanding on the Reversion Date). To the extent

such Debt would not be permitted to be Incurred pursuant to Section 4.04(a) or one of the clauses set forth in the definition of “Permitted Debt” in Section 4.04, such Debt will be deemed to have been outstanding on the Escrow Release Date, so that it is classified as permitted under clause (x) of the definition of “Permitted Debt” in Section 4.04. For purposes of determining compliance with the covenant described in Section 4.07 on the Reversion Date, the Net Available Cash from all Asset Sales not applied in accordance with the covenant will be deemed to be reset to zero. No Subsidiaries may be designated as Unrestricted Subsidiaries during any Suspension Period. The Company will give the Trustee written notice of any occurrence of a Reversion Date not later than five Business Days after such Reversion Date. After any such notice of the occurrence of a Reversion Date, the Trustee shall assume that the Suspended Covenants apply and are in full force and effect.

Section 4.02. Payment of Notes. The Issuer shall promptly pay the principal of and interest on the Notes and Additional Amounts, if any, on the dates and in the manner provided in the Notes and in this Indenture. Principal, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, shall be considered paid on the date due if on such date the Trustee or the applicable Paying Agent holds in accordance with this Indenture money sufficient to pay all principal, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, then due.

The Issuer shall pay interest on overdue principal at the rate specified therefor in the Notes, and it shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest and overdue Additional Amounts, if any, at the rate borne by the Notes to the extent lawful.

Section 4.03. Reports. Whether or not required by the rules and regulations of the SEC, so long as any Notes are outstanding, the Company will furnish to the Holders of Notes or cause the Trustee to furnish to the Holders of Notes, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations for non-accelerated filers:

(a) all quarterly and annual reports that would be required to be filed with the SEC on Forms 10-Q and 10-K if the Company were required to file such reports; and

(b) all current reports that would be required to be filed with the SEC on Form 8-K if the Company were required to file such reports;

provided that the electronic filing of the foregoing reports by the Company on the SEC’s EDGAR system (or any successor system) shall be deemed to satisfy the Company’s delivery obligations to the Trustee and any Holder of Notes.

All such reports will be prepared in all material respects in accordance with all of the rules and regulations applicable to such reports. Each annual report on Form 10-K will include a report on the Company’s consolidated financial statements by the Company’s certified independent accountants. In addition, the Company will file a copy of each of the reports referred to in clauses (a) and (b) above with the SEC for public availability within the time periods specified in the rules and regulations applicable to such reports (unless the SEC will not accept such a filing) and will post the reports on its website within those time periods.

If, at any time, the Company is no longer subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for any reason, the Company will nevertheless continue filing the reports specified in the preceding paragraphs of this covenant with the SEC within the time periods specified above unless the SEC will not accept such a filing. The Company will not take any action reasonably expected to cause the SEC not to accept any such filings. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the SEC will not accept the Company’s filings for any reason, the Company will post the reports referred to in the preceding paragraphs on its website within the time periods that would apply if the Company were required to file those reports with the SEC.

If, at any time, the Company does not have a class of equity listed on a national securities exchange, the Company will schedule a conference call to be held reasonably promptly, but not more than ten Business Days following the release of each report containing the financial information referred to in clause (a) above to discuss the information contained in such report. The Company will take reasonable steps to notify Holders of Notes about such call and provide them and prospective investors in the Notes with instructions to obtain access to such conference call concurrently with and in the same manner as each delivery of financial statements pursuant to clause (a) above.

In addition, the Company agrees that, if at any time it is not required to file with the SEC the reports required by the preceding paragraphs, it will furnish to the Holders of Notes and to securities analysts and prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act for so long as the Notes are subject to resale restrictions under Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

To the extent any information is not provided within the time periods specified in this Section 4.03 and such information is subsequently provided, the Company will be deemed to have satisfied its obligations with respect thereto at such time and any Default with respect thereto shall be deemed to have been cured.

Prior to the Escrow Release Date, delivery of the foregoing reports required in this Section 4.03 by the Company containing financial information related to the Company shall be deemed to satisfy the obligations hereunder.

Section 4.04. Limitation on Debt. The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, Incur, directly or indirectly, any Debt unless, after giving effect to the application of the proceeds thereof, either:

(a) the Debt is Debt of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary and after giving effect to the Incurrence of the Debt and the application of the proceeds thereof on a pro forma basis, the Consolidated Fixed Charges Coverage Ratio would be at least 2.00 to 1.00; provided that the aggregate principal amount of Debt permitted to be Incurred pursuant to this clause (a) by Restricted Subsidiaries that are not the Issuer or Guarantors may not, together with Debt incurred under clause (b)(xxii) below in respect thereof, exceed $100.0 million, or

(b) the Debt is Permitted Debt.

“Permitted Debt” means:

(iii) Debt of the Company owing to and held by any Restricted Subsidiary and Debt of a Restricted Subsidiary owing to and held by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that (1) any subsequent issue or transfer of Capital Stock or other event that results in any Restricted Subsidiary ceasing to be a Restricted Subsidiary or any subsequent transfer of that Debt (except to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary) shall be deemed, in each case, to constitute the Incurrence of that Debt by the issuer thereof, and (2) if the Issuer or a Guarantor is the obligor on that Debt and the Debt is owed to a Restricted Subsidiary that is not the Issuer or a Guarantor, the Debt is expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all obligations with respect to the Notes or the applicable Note Guaranty;

(iv) Debt of a Restricted Subsidiary outstanding on the date on which that Restricted Subsidiary was acquired by the Company or otherwise became a Restricted Subsidiary or Debt Incurred as consideration in, or to provide all or any portion of the funds or credit support utilized to consummate, a transaction or series of transactions pursuant to which the Restricted Subsidiary became a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company or was otherwise acquired by the Company; provided that at the time that Person was acquired by the Company or otherwise became a Restricted Subsidiary and after giving effect to the Incurrence of that Debt, (i) the Company would have been able to Incur $1.00 of additional Debt pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 4.04 or (ii) the Consolidated Fixed Charges Coverage Ratio is at least equal to such ratio immediately prior to such transaction;

(v) Debt under Interest Rate Agreements entered into by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary for the purpose of limiting interest rate risk in the financial management of the Company or that Restricted Subsidiary and not for speculative purposes, provided that the obligations under those agreements are related to payment obligations on Debt otherwise permitted by the terms of this Section 4.04;

(vi) Debt under Currency Exchange Protection Agreements entered into by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary for the purpose of limiting currency exchange rate risks in the financial management of the Company or that Restricted Subsidiary and not for speculative purposes;

(viii) Debt in connection with one or more standby letters of credit or performance or surety bonds or completion guarantees issued by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary in the ordinary course of business or pursuant to self-insurance obligations and not in connection with the borrowing of money or the obtaining of advances or credit;

(ix) Debt arising from agreements of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary providing for indemnification, adjustment of purchase price or similar obligations, in each case, Incurred in connection with the disposition of any business, assets or Capital Stock of a Subsidiary, other than Guarantees of Debt Incurred by any Person acquiring all or any portion of such business, assets or Capital Stock; provided, however, that the maximum aggregate liability in respect of all such Debt shall at no time exceed the gross proceeds actually received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary in connection with such disposition;

(x) Debt of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries outstanding on the Issue Date, in each case not otherwise described in clauses (i) through (ix) above and clauses (xv), (xvi), (xvii), (xviii) and (xix) below;

(xiii) Debt of the Issuer or any Guarantor consisting of Guarantees of Debt of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary Incurred under any other clause of this Section 4.04;

(xvii) (a) Debt arising from the honoring by a bank or other financial institution of a check, draft or similar instrument drawn against insufficient funds in the ordinary course of business, provided, however, that such Debt is extinguished, refinanced or otherwise covered within five Business Days of Incurrence or (b) Debt owed on a short-term basis of no longer than 30 days to banks or financial institutions Incurred in the ordinary course of business that arises in connection with ordinary banking arrangements to manage cash balances of the Company and its Subsidiaries;

(xviii) shares of Preferred Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary issued to the Company or another Restricted Subsidiary; provided that any subsequent issuance or transfer of any Capital Stock or any other event that results in any such Restricted Subsidiary ceasing to be a Restricted Subsidiary or any other subsequent transfer of any such shares of Preferred Stock (except to the Company or another of its Restricted Subsidiaries) shall be deemed in each case to be an issuance of such shares of Preferred Stock not permitted by this clause (xviii);

(xix) Debt to the extent that the net proceeds thereof are promptly deposited to defease or to satisfy and discharge the Notes in each case in accordance with the requirements of this Indenture;

(xx) Permitted Refinancing Debt Incurred in respect of Debt Incurred pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 4.04 and clauses (i), (iv) and (x) above or this clause (xx);

(xxi) the Separation Obligations;

(xxii) Debt under any Permitted Receivables Financing outstanding on or Incurred after the Issue Date; and

(xxiii) Debt incurred in connection with the assumption of any Assumed Liabilities (as defined in the Acquisition Agreement).

For purposes of determining compliance with any restriction on the Incurrence of Debt in U.S. Dollars where Debt is denominated in a different currency, the amount of such Debt will be the U.S. Dollar Equivalent determined on the date of such determination. The principal amount of any Permitted Refinancing Debt Incurred in the same currency as the Debt being Refinanced will be the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the Debt Refinanced determined on the date such Debt being Refinanced was initially Incurred. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.04, for purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.04, increases in Debt solely due to fluctuations in the exchange rates of currencies will not be deemed to exceed the maximum amount that the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may Incur under any of clauses (i) through (xxii) of this Section 4.04.

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.04:

(A) in the event that an item of Debt meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Debt described above, the Company, in its sole discretion, will classify such item of Debt at the time of Incurrence and only be required to include the amount and type of such Debt in one of the above clauses; and

(B) the Company will be entitled to divide and classify and reclassify an item of Debt in more than one of the types of Debt described above; provided that Debt outstanding under the Credit Agreement on the Escrow Release Date shall at all times be treated as Incurred under clause (ii) of the definition of “Permitted Debt” and may not be reclassified.

Section 4.05. Limitation on Restricted Payments. The Company shall not make, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to make, directly or indirectly, any Restricted Payment if at the time of, and after giving effect to, the proposed Restricted Payment,

(a) a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,

(b) the Company could not Incur at least $1.00 of additional Debt pursuant to clause (a) of Section 4.04, or

(c) the aggregate amount of that Restricted Payment and all other Restricted Payments declared or made after the Existing Notes Effective Date (the amount of any Restricted Payment, if made other than in cash, to be based upon Fair Market Value) would exceed an amount equal to the sum of:

(i) 50% of the aggregate amount of Consolidated Net Income accrued during the period (treated as one accounting period) from October 1, 2015 to the end of the most recent fiscal quarter ending prior to the date of such Restricted Payment and for which reports are required to be provided under Section 4.03 (or if the aggregate amount of Consolidated Net Income for such period shall be a deficit, minus 100% of such deficit), plus

(ii) Capital Stock Sale Proceeds received after the Existing Notes Effective Date, plus

(iii) the sum of:

(A) the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary from the issuance or sale after the Existing Notes Effective Date of convertible or exchangeable Debt that has been converted into or exchanged for Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Company, and

(B) the aggregate amount by which Debt of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary is reduced on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet on or after the Existing Notes Effective Date upon the conversion or exchange of any Debt issued or sold on or prior to the Existing Notes Effective Date that is convertible or exchangeable for Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Company,

excluding, in the case of clause (A) or (B):

(x) any Debt issued or sold to the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company or an employee stock ownership plan or trust established by the Company or any Subsidiary for the benefit of their employees, and

(y) the aggregate amount of any cash or other Property distributed by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary upon any such conversion or exchange, plus

(iv) an amount equal to the sum of:

(A) the net reduction in Investments in any Person other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary resulting from dividends, repayments of loans or advances or other transfers of Property made after the Existing Notes Effective Date, in each case to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary from that Person, less the cost of the disposition of those Investments, and

(B) the lesser of the net book value or the Fair Market Value of the Company’s equity interest in an Unrestricted Subsidiary at the time the Unrestricted Subsidiary is designated a Restricted Subsidiary (provided that such designation occurs after the Existing Notes Effective Date);

provided, however, that the foregoing sum shall not exceed, in the case of any Person, the amount of Investments previously made (and treated as Restricted Payments) by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in that Person, and

plus

(v) any cash dividends or cash distributions received directly or indirectly by the Issuer or a Guarantor after the Existing Notes Effective Date from an Unrestricted Subsidiary, to the extent such dividends or distributions were not otherwise included in Consolidated Net Income (other than to the extent such distribution represents a return of capital and the Investment in such Unrestricted Subsidiary was made by the Restricted Subsidiary pursuant to clause (j) of the second paragraph of this covenant or to the extent such Investment constituted a Permitted Investment).

Notwithstanding the foregoing limitation, the Company may:

(d) declare or pay dividends on its Capital Stock or distributions, or the consummation of any irrevocable redemption, within 60 days after the date of declaration of the dividend or distribution or giving of the redemption notice, as the case may be, if, on said date of declaration or redemption notice, such dividends, distributions or redemption, as the case may be, could have been paid in compliance with this Indenture; provided, however, that the dividend, distribution and redemption shall be included in the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payments;

(1) the purchase, repurchase, redemption, legal defeasance, acquisition or retirement shall be excluded in the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payments, and

(2) the Capital Stock Sale Proceeds from the exchange or sale shall be excluded from the calculation pursuant to clause (c)(ii) above;

(f) purchase, repurchase, redeem, legally defease, acquire or retire for value any Subordinated Obligations or Disqualified Stock in exchange for, or out of the proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale of, Permitted Refinancing Debt (in the case of Subordinated Obligations only) or Disqualified Stock; provided, however, that the purchase, repurchase, redemption, legal defeasance, acquisition or retirement shall be excluded in the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payments;

(h) permit a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Wholly Owned Subsidiary to pay dividends to shareholders of that Restricted Subsidiary that are not the parent of that Restricted Subsidiary, so long as the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary that is the parent of that Restricted Subsidiary receives dividends on a pro rata basis or on a basis that results in the receipt by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary that is the parent of that Restricted Subsidiary of dividends or distributions of greater value than it would receive on a pro rata basis;

(i) make cash payments in lieu of fractional shares in connection with the exercise of warrants, options or other securities convertible into Capital Stock of the Company; provided, however, that such payments shall be excluded in the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payments;

(l) purchase, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value any Subordinated Obligations upon a Change of Control of the Company or an Asset Sale by the Company, to the extent required by any agreement pursuant to which such Subordinated Obligations were issued, but only if the Company has previously made the offer to purchase Notes required under Section 4.07 or Section 4.12 and has repurchased all Notes validly tendered and now withdrawn in connection with such offer to purchase Notes pursuant to Section 4.07 or Section 4.12; provided, however, that such payments shall be included in the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payments;

(m) make other Restricted Payments not to exceed $150.0 million in the aggregate (measured at the time of incurrence); provided, however, that such payments shall be excluded in the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payments;

(p) so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or will result therefrom, make other Restricted Payments if, immediately after giving effect to such Restricted Payments (including the Incurrence of any Debt to finance such payment), the Consolidated Leverage Ratio would not be greater than 3.50 to 1.00; provided, however, that such repurchases shall be excluded in the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payments;

(q) make payments in connection with the Transactions prior to or on or about the Escrow Release Date, any payments made in connection with the Spin-Off Transactions or on or about the Existing Notes Effective Date, and any payments made in connection with the Spin-Off Interim Ordinary Course Transactions or the Spin-Off Internal Reorganization prior to the Existing Notes Effective Date; provided, however, that such payments shall be excluded in the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payment; and

Section 4.06. Limitation on Liens. The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, Incur or suffer to exist, any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) upon any of its Property (including Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary), whether owned at the Issue Date or thereafter acquired, or any interest therein or any income or profits therefrom unless (a) it has made or will make effective provision whereby the Notes will be secured by that Lien equally and ratably with (or prior to) all other Debt of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary secured by that Lien or (b) in the case of Liens securing subordinated obligations or a Guarantor’s subordinated obligations, the Notes and the related Note Guarantees are secured by a Lien on such property, assets or proceeds that is senior to such Liens.

Any Lien created for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes pursuant to this Section 4.06 shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of each of the Liens described in clauses (a) and (b) above.

Section 4.07. Limitation on Asset Sales.

(a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, consummate any Asset Sale unless:

(i) the Company or the Restricted Subsidiary receives consideration at the time of the Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value of the Property subject to such Asset Sale;

(ii) at least 75% of the consideration paid to the Company or the Restricted Subsidiary in connection with such Asset Sale is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents or the assumption by the purchaser of liabilities of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes) as a result of which the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries are no longer obligated with respect to such liabilities; and

(iii) the Company delivers an Officers’ Certificate to the Trustee certifying that such Asset Sale complies with the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii).

For the purposes of this Section 4.07:

(1) securities or other assets received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary from the transferee that are converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash within 180 days after the closing of such Asset Sale shall be considered to be cash to the extent of the cash received in that conversion;

(2) any cash consideration paid to the Company or the Restricted Subsidiary in connection with the Asset Sale that is held in escrow or on deposit to support indemnification, adjustment of purchase price or similar obligations in respect of such Asset Sale shall be considered to be cash;

(3) Productive Assets received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in connection with the Asset Sale shall be considered to be cash;

(4) the requirement that at least 75% of the consideration paid to the Company or the Restricted Subsidiary in connection with the Asset Sale be in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents or assumed liabilities shall also be considered satisfied if the cash or Cash Equivalents received constitutes at least 75% of the consideration received by the Company or the Restricted Subsidiary in connection with such Asset Sale, determined on an after-tax basis; and

(5) any Designated Non-Cash Consideration received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in connection with the Asset Sale having an aggregate Fair Market Value, taken together with all other Designated Non-Cash Consideration received in respect of Asset Sales that is at that time outstanding not to exceed the greater of (x) $35.0 million or (y) 3.0% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets shall be considered to be cash.

(b) The Net Available Cash (or any portion thereof) from Asset Sales may be applied by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, to the extent the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary elects (or is required by the terms of any Debt):

(i) to Repay secured Debt of the Issuer or a Guarantor (and if the secured Debt being repaid is revolving credit Debt, to correspondingly permanently reduce commitments with respect thereto), or any Debt of a non-Guarantor Restricted Subsidiary (excluding, in any such case, any Debt that is owed to the Company or an Affiliate of the Company);

(ii) to Repay other Debt of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary (other than Subordinated Obligations and Debt owed to the Company or an Affiliate of the Company) so long as the Company shall equally and ratably reduce obligations under the Notes (i) on a pro rata basis pursuant to Section 3.07, (ii) through open-market purchases (to the extent such purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof) or (iii) by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for a Prepayment Offer) to all Holders to purchase their Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the amount of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the amount of Notes that would otherwise be prepaid; or

(iii) to reinvest in Additional Assets (including by means of an Investment in Additional Assets by a Restricted Subsidiary with Net Available Cash received by the Company or another Restricted Subsidiary),

provided, however, that the Net Available Cash (or any portion thereof) from Asset Sales from the Company to any Subsidiary must be reinvested in Additional Assets of the Company.

(c) Any Net Available Cash from an Asset Sale not applied in accordance with the preceding paragraph within 365 days from the date of the receipt of such Net Available Cash or that the Company earlier elects to so designate shall constitute “Excess Proceeds,” provided, however, that a binding commitment to reinvest in Additional Assets pursuant to clause (b)(iii) of this Section 4.07 shall be treated as a permitted application of the Net Available Cash from the date of such commitment; provided that (i) such reinvestment is consummated within 180 days of the end of the 365 day period referred to in this sentence, and (ii) if such reinvestment is not consummated within the period set forth in subclause (i) or such binding commitment is terminated, the Net Available Cash not so applied will be deemed to be Excess Proceeds.

When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds not previously subject to a Prepayment Offer (as defined below) exceeds $35.0 million (taking into account income earned on those Excess Proceeds, if any), the Company will be required to make an offer to purchase (the “Prepayment Offer”) the Notes, which offer shall be in the amount of

the Allocable Excess Proceeds, on a pro rata basis according to principal amount, at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the purchase date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), in accordance with the procedures (including prorating in the event of oversubscription) set forth in this Indenture. To the extent that any portion of the amount of Net Available Cash remains after compliance with the preceding sentence and provided that all Holders of Notes have been given the opportunity to tender their Notes for purchase in accordance with this Indenture, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary may use the remaining amount for any purpose permitted by this Indenture and the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset to zero.

The term “Allocable Excess Proceeds” will mean the product of:

(a) the Excess Proceeds, and

(b) a fraction,

(1) the numerator of which is the aggregate principal amount of the Notes outstanding on the date of the Prepayment Offer, and

(2) the denominator of which is the sum of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes outstanding on the date of the Prepayment Offer and the aggregate principal amount of other Debt of the Company outstanding on the date of the Prepayment Offer that is pari passu in right of payment with the Notes and subject to terms and conditions in respect of Asset Sales similar in all material respects to the covenant described hereunder and requiring the Company to make an offer to purchase such Debt at substantially the same time as the Prepayment Offer.

(c) (1) Not later than five Business Days after the Company is obligated to make a Prepayment Offer as described in clause (c) of this Section 4.07, the Company shall send, or cause to be sent, a written notice, by first-class mail (or electronic transmission in the case of Notes held in book-entry form), to the Holders of Notes, with a copy to the Trustee, accompanied by information regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries as the Company in good faith believes will enable the Holders to make an informed decision with respect to that Prepayment Offer. The notice shall state, among other things, the purchase price and the purchase date, which shall be, subject to any contrary requirements of applicable law, a Business Day no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date the notice is delivered.

(2) Not later than the date upon which written notice of a Prepayment Offer is delivered to the Trustee as provided above, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate as to (i) the amount of the Prepayment Offer (the “Offer Amount”), (ii) the allocation of the Net Available Cash from the Asset Sales pursuant to which such Prepayment Offer is being made and (iii) the compliance of such allocation with the provisions of clause (c) of this Section

4.07. On or before the purchase date, the Issuer shall also irrevocably deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent (or, if the Issuer or a Subsidiary is the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) in Temporary Cash Investments (other than those enumerated in clause (b) of the definition of “Temporary Cash Investments”), maturing on the last day prior to the purchase date or on the purchase date if funds are immediately available by open of business, an amount equal to the Offer Amount to be held for payment in accordance with the provisions of this Section. Upon the expiration of the period for which the Prepayment Offer remains open (the “Offer Period”), the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee for cancellation the Notes or portions thereof that have been properly tendered to and are to be accepted by the Issuer. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall, on the purchase date, mail or, in the case of Global Notes, deliver payment to each tendering Holder in the amount of its pro rata share of the Offer Amount. In the event that the aggregate purchase price of the Notes delivered by the Issuer to the Trustee is less than the Offer Amount, the Trustee or the Paying Agent shall deliver the excess to the Issuer immediately after the expiration of the Offer Period for application in accordance with this Section.

(3) Holders electing to have a Note purchased shall be required to surrender the Note, with an appropriate form duly completed, to the Issuer or its agent at the address specified in the notice at least three Business Days prior to the purchase date. Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Trustee or the Issuer receives not later than one Business Day prior to the purchase date, a facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note that was delivered for purchase by the Holder and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its election to have such Note purchased. If at the expiration of the Offer Period the aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by Holders exceeds the Offer Amount, the Notes shall be purchased on a pro rata basis (with such adjustments as may be necessary so that only Notes in denominations of €100,000, or integral multiples of €1,000 thereafter, shall be purchased), provided that if the Notes are in global form, interests in such Global Notes will be selected for repurchase by the applicable Common Depositary in accordance with its standard procedures. Holders whose Notes are purchased only in part shall be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered.

(4) At the time the Issuer delivers Notes to the Trustee that are to be accepted for purchase, the Issuer shall also deliver an Officers’ Certificate stating that such Notes are to be accepted by the Issuer pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Section. A Note shall be deemed to have been accepted for purchase at the time the Trustee or the applicable Paying Agent mails or, in the case of Global Notes, delivers payment therefor to the surrendering Holder.

(d) The Issuer will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to this Section. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with provisions of this Section, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.07 by virtue thereof.

Section 4.08. Limitation on Restrictions on Distributions from Restricted Subsidiaries. The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or suffer to exist any consensual restriction on the right of any Restricted Subsidiary to:

(a) pay dividends, in cash or otherwise, or make any other distributions on or in respect of its Capital Stock, or pay any Debt or other obligation owed, to the Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary (it being understood that the priority of any Preferred Stock in receiving dividend or liquidating distributions prior to the dividends or liquidating distributions being paid on common stock shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make distributions on Capital Stock),

(b) make any loans or advances to the Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary (it being understood that the subordination of loans or advances made to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary to other Debt Incurred by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make loans or advances), or

(c) sell, lease or transfer any of its Property to the Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary (it being understood that such transfers shall not include any type of transfer described in clause (a) or (b) above).

The foregoing limitations will not apply to restrictions:

(i) (a) in effect on the Issue Date, including, but not limited to the Existing Credit Agreement, the Existing Notes Indenture and the USD Indenture, and (b) under the New Credit Agreement;

(ii) relating to Debt of a Restricted Subsidiary existing at the time it became a Restricted Subsidiary if such restriction was not created in connection with or in anticipation of the transaction or series of transactions pursuant to which that Restricted Subsidiary became a Restricted Subsidiary or was acquired by the Company;

(iii) that result from any amendment, restatement, modification, renewal, supplement, extension, replacement or Refinancing of Debt Incurred pursuant to an agreement referred to in clause (i)or (ii) above, in clause (vi), (vii) or (x) below or this clause (iii), provided that the restriction contained in such amendment, restatement, modification, renewal, supplement, extension, replacement or Refinancing is not materially more restrictive (as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors), taken as a whole, than the restrictions of the same type contained in the agreements or instruments referred to in clauses (i), (ii), (vi), (vii) or (x) or this clause (iii), as applicable;

(iv) resulting from the Incurrence of any Permitted Debt as defined in Section 4.04, provided that the restriction is no less favorable to the Holders of Notes in any material respect (as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors) than the restrictions of the same type contained in this Indenture;

(v) existing by reason of applicable law, rule, regulation or order;

(vi) with respect to clause (c) above only, relating to Debt that is permitted to be Incurred and secured without also securing the Notes pursuant to Section 4.04 and Section 4.06 that limit the right of the debtor to dispose of the Property securing that Debt;

(vii) encumbering Property at the time the Property was acquired by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, so long as the restriction relates solely to the Property so acquired and was not created in connection with or in anticipation of the acquisition;

(viii) resulting from customary provisions restricting subletting or assignment of leases or customary provisions in other agreements (including, without limitation, intellectual property licenses entered into in the ordinary course of business) that restrict assignment of the agreements or rights thereunder;

(ix) which are customary restrictions contained in asset sale agreements limiting the transfer of Property pending the closing of the sale;

(x) existing pursuant to any Debt Incurred by a Foreign Subsidiary, which restrictions are customary for a financing of such type, and which are otherwise permitted under this Indenture, provided, however, that the Company’s Board of Directors determines in good faith that such restrictions are not reasonably likely to impair the Company’s ability to make principal and interest payments on the Notes; or

(xi) existing by reason of this Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees;

(xii) with respect to the disposition or distribution of assets or property in joint venture agreements and other similar agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business;

(xiii) on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by customers under contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business;

(xiv) in the case of the provision described in clause (c) of the first paragraph of this covenant; arising or agreed to in the ordinary course of business, not relating to any Debt, and that do not, individually or in the aggregate, detract from the value of property or assets of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof in any manner material to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof;

(xv) contained in Hedging Obligations; and

(xvi) constituting customary restrictions with respect to a Securitization Subsidiary, pursuant to the terms of a Permitted Receivables Financing.

Section 4.09. Limitation on Transactions with Affiliates. The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, conduct any business or enter into or suffer to exist any transaction or series of transactions (including the purchase, sale, transfer, assignment, lease, conveyance or exchange of any Property or the rendering of any service) with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Company (an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving payments in excess of $5.0 million, unless:

(a) the terms of such Affiliate Transaction are no less favorable to the Company or that Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, taken as a whole, than those that could be obtained in a comparable arm’s-length transaction with a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Company, and

(b) if the Affiliate Transaction involves aggregate payments or value in excess of $25.0 million, the Board of Directors (including a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors) approves the Affiliate Transaction and, in its good faith judgment, believes that the Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (a) of this paragraph as evidenced by a resolution of the Board of Directors promptly delivered to the Trustee.

Notwithstanding the foregoing limitation, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may enter into or suffer to exist the following:

(a) any transaction or series of transactions between the Company and one or more Restricted Subsidiaries or between two or more Restricted Subsidiaries;

(b) any Restricted Payment permitted to be made pursuant to Section 4.05 or any Permitted Investment;

(c) any reasonable or customary employment, consulting, service, severance, termination agreement, employee benefit plan, compensation arrangement, indemnification arrangement, or any similar arrangement entered into by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary with a current or former director, officer or employee of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary and payments related thereto; or any issuance of securities, or other payments, awards or grants in cash, securities or otherwise pursuant to, or the funding of, employment agreements and other compensation arrangements, options to purchase Capital Stock of the Company, restricted stock plans, restricted stock unit plans, long-term incentive plans, stock appreciation rights plans, participation plans or similar employee benefits plans and/or indemnity provided on behalf of directors, officers and employees of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary approved by the Board of Directors of the Company;

(d) (i) reimbursement of employee travel and lodging costs and other business expenses incurred in the ordinary course of business and (ii) loans and advances to employees made in the ordinary course of business in compliance with applicable laws and consistent with the past practices of the Company or that Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be;

(e) any issuance of shares of Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Company;

(f) any agreement as in effect on the Issue Date or any amendment, modification, supplement, extension or renewal thereto (so long as such amendment, modification, supplement, extension or renewal is not materially adverse to the interests of the Holders of the Notes) or any transaction contemplated thereby;

(g) any agreement between any Person and an Affiliate of such Person existing at the time such Person is acquired by or merged or consolidated with or into the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, as such agreement may be amended, modified, supplemented, extended or renewed from time to time; provided that such agreement was not entered into in contemplation of such acquisition, merger or consolidation, and so long as any such amendment, modification, supplement, extension or renewal, when taken as a whole, is not materially more disadvantageous to the Holders, in the reasonable determination of two Officers of the Company (as evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate), than the applicable agreement as in effect on the date of such acquisition, merger or consolidation;

(h) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers, joint venture partners or purchasers or sellers of goods or services, in each case in the ordinary course of the business of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture; provided that in the reasonable determination of two Officers of the Company (as evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate), such transactions are on terms that are not materially less favorable, when taken as a whole, to the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person;

(i) transactions in which the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary delivers to the Trustee a letter or opinion from an Independent Financial Advisor stating that such transaction is fair to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view or stating that the terms are not materially less favorable, when taken as a whole, than those that might reasonably have been obtained by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary in a comparable transaction at such time on an arms-length basis from a Person that is not an Affiliate;

(j) the Transactions and the payment of all fees and expenses related to the Transactions;

(k) any service, purchase, lease, supply or similar agreement entered into in the ordinary course of business (including, without limitation, pursuant to any joint venture agreement) between the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary and any Affiliate (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary) that is a customer, client, supplier, purchaser or seller of goods or services, so long as the Company determines in good faith that any such agreement is on terms not materially less favorable to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary than those that could be obtained in a comparable arms’-length transaction with an entity that is not an Affiliate;

(l) pledges of equity interests of Unrestricted Subsidiaries to secure Debt of such Unrestricted Subsidiaries; and

(m) transactions entered into as part of a Permitted Receivables Financing on customary terms (as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors).

Section 4.10. Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries. The Board of Directors of the Company may designate any Subsidiary of the Company (other than the Issuer) to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if:

(a) the Subsidiary to be so designated does not own any Capital Stock or Debt of, or own or hold any Lien on any Property of, the Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary,

(b) immediately before and after such designation, no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and

(i) the Subsidiary to be so designated has total assets of $1,000 or less, or

(ii) if the Subsidiary has consolidated assets greater than $1,000, then the designation would be permitted under Section 4.05.

Unless so designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, any Person that becomes a Subsidiary of the Company will be classified as a Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that the Subsidiary shall not be designated a Restricted Subsidiary and shall be automatically classified as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if the Person is a Subsidiary of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

Except as provided in the first sentence of the preceding paragraph, no Restricted Subsidiary may be redesignated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary. In addition, neither the Company nor any Restricted Subsidiary shall at any time be directly or indirectly liable for any Debt that provides that the holder thereof may (with the passage of time or notice or both) declare a default thereon or cause the payment thereof to be accelerated or payable prior to its Stated Maturity upon the occurrence of a default with respect to any Debt, Lien or other obligation of any Unrestricted Subsidiary in existence and classified as an Unrestricted Subsidiary at the time the Company or the Restricted Subsidiary is liable for that Debt (including any right to take enforcement action against that Unrestricted Subsidiary).

The Board of Directors of the Company may designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if, immediately after giving effect on a pro forma basis to the designation,

(x) the Company could Incur at least $1.00 of additional Debt pursuant to clause (a) of Section 4.04, and

(y) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result therefrom.

Any designation or redesignation of this kind by the Board of Directors of the Company will be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the Trustee a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company giving effect to the designation or redesignation and an Officers’ Certificate that:

(a) certifies that the designation or redesignation complies with the foregoing provisions, and

(b) gives the effective date of the designation or redesignation, and the filing with the Trustee to occur no later than the time period for which reports are required to be provided under Section 4.03 for the fiscal quarter of the Company in which the designation or redesignation is made.

Section 4.11. Limitation on Sale and Leaseback Transactions. The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, enter into any Sale and Leaseback Transaction with respect to any Property unless:

(a) the Company or that Restricted Subsidiary would be entitled to:

(i) Incur Debt in an amount equal to the Attributable Debt with respect to that Sale and Leaseback Transaction pursuant to Section 4.04, and

(ii) create a Lien on the Property securing that Attributable Debt without also securing the Notes pursuant to Section 4.06, and

(b) the Sale and Leaseback Transaction is effected in compliance with Section 4.07 after treating all the consideration received in such Sale and Leaseback Transaction as Net Available Cash of such covenant.

Section 4.12. Change of Control. (a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each Holder of Notes shall have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase all or any part of such Holder’s Notes pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”) at a purchase price (the “Change of Control Purchase Price”) equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, to, but excluding, the purchase date (subject to the right of Holders of

record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date).

(b) Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Issuer shall send or cause to be sent by first-class mail (or electronic transmission in the case of Notes held in book-entry form), with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder of Notes, at such Holder’s address appearing in the Note register, a notice stating: (A) that a Change of Control has occurred and a Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.12 and that all Notes timely tendered will be accepted for repurchase; (B) the Change of Control Purchase Price and the purchase date, which shall be, subject to any contrary requirements of applicable law, a Business Day no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered (the “Change of Control Payment Date”); and (C) the procedures that Holders of Notes must follow in order to tender their Notes (or portions thereof) for payment and the procedures that Holders of Notes must follow in order to withdraw an election to tender Notes (or portions thereof) for payment.

(c) Holders electing to have a Note purchased shall be required to surrender the Note, with an appropriate form duly completed and attached to the Note, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Issuer or its agent at the address specified in the notice at least three Business Days prior to the Change of Control Payment Date. Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Trustee or the Issuer receives not later than one Business Day prior to the Change of Control Payment Date, a facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note that was delivered for purchase by the Holder and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its election to have such Note purchased.

(d) On or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer shall irrevocably deposit with either the Trustee or with the Paying Agent (or, if the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries is acting as the Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust) in cash an amount equal to the Change of Control Purchase Price payable to the Holders entitled thereto, to be held for payment in accordance with the provisions of this Section. On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee the Notes or portions thereof that have been properly tendered to and are to be accepted by the Issuer for payment. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall, on the Change of Control Payment Date, mail or, in the case of Global Notes, deliver payment to each tendering Holder of the Change of Control Purchase Price. In the event that the aggregate Change of Control Purchase Price is less than the amount delivered by the Issuer to the Trustee or the Paying Agent, the Trustee or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, shall deliver the excess to the Issuer immediately after the Change of Control Payment Date.

(e) The Issuer will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control if (i) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer or (ii) notice of redemption has been given pursuant to this Indenture to redeem all of the Notes pursuant to Section 3.07, unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable

redemption price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditioned upon the consummation of such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Change of Control Offer is made.

(f) The Issuer will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.12 by virtue thereof.

(g) The Issuer shall have the right to redeem the Notes at 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any following the consummation of a Change of Control if at least 90% of the Notes outstanding prior to such consummation are repurchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer with respect to such Change of Control.

Section 4.13. Further Instruments and Acts. Upon the reasonable written request of the Trustee, the Issuer shall execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purpose of this Indenture.

Section 4.14. Additional Note Guarantees. If any Domestic Restricted Subsidiary of the Company guarantees or becomes an obligor under the New Credit Agreement after the Escrow Release Date, such Restricted Subsidiary shall (i) within 30 days execute and deliver a supplemental indenture to this Indenture providing for a Note Guaranty by such Restricted Subsidiary in the form of Exhibit B hereto and (ii) such Restricted Subsidiary shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (a) such Note Guaranty has been duly executed and authorized; and (b) such Note Guaranty constitutes a valid, binding and enforceable obligation of such Restricted Subsidiary, except insofar as enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws (including all laws relating to fraudulent transfers) and except insofar as enforcement thereof is subject to general principals of equity; provided that this covenant shall not be applicable to any Guarantee of any Restricted Subsidiary that existed at the time such Person became a Restricted Subsidiary and was not incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary. Each Note Guaranty shall be released in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.09.

Section 4.15. Additional Amounts

(a) All payments of principal and interest in respect of the Notes will be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or other similar governmental charges imposed or levied by a governmental authority in a jurisdiction (a “Relevant Tax Jurisdiction”) in which the Issuer or any Guarantor is organized or resident for tax purposes, or from or through which payment is made (collectively, “Taxes”), unless such withholding or deduction is required by law.

(b) In the event of any such withholding or deduction for Taxes, subject to the limitations described below, the Issuer (or the Guarantors) will pay such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary to ensure that the net amount received by the Beneficial Owner of a Note, after withholding or deduction for such Taxes, will be equal to the amount such person would have received in the absence of such withholding or deduction. However, no Additional Amounts shall be payable for or on account of:

(i) any Taxes which would not have been so imposed, withheld or deducted but for:

(A) the existence of any present or former connection between the Holder or Beneficial Owner (or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder or other equity owner of, or a person having a power over, such Holder or Beneficial Owner, if such Holder or Beneficial Owner is an estate, a trust, a limited liability company, a partnership, a corporation or other entity) and a Relevant Tax Jurisdiction, including, without limitation, such Holder or Beneficial Owner (or such fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member, shareholder or other equity owner or person having such a power) being or having been a citizen or resident or treated as a resident of the Relevant Tax Jurisdiction, being or having been engaged in a trade or business in the Relevant Tax Jurisdiction, being or having been present in the Relevant Tax Jurisdiction, or having or having had a permanent establishment in the Relevant Tax Jurisdiction;

(B) the failure of the Holder or any other person to comply with certification, identification or information reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the Relevant Tax Jurisdiction of the Holder or Beneficial Owner of the Notes, if compliance is required by statute, by regulation of the Relevant Tax Jurisdiction or any taxing authority therein or by an applicable income tax treaty to which the Relevant Tax Jurisdiction is a party as a precondition to partial or complete exemption from such tax, assessment or other governmental charge (including, but not limited to, the requirement to provide Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, Form W-8BEN-E, Form W-8ECI, Form W-8IMY (and related documentation) or any subsequent versions thereof or successor thereto); or

(C) the Holder’s or Beneficial Owner’s present or former status as a personal holding company with respect to the United States, as a controlled foreign corporation with respect to the United States, as a passive foreign investment company with respect to the United States, as a foreign tax exempt organization with respect to the United States or as a corporation that accumulates earnings to avoid United States federal income tax;

(ii) any Taxes which would not have been imposed, withheld or deducted but for the failure of the Holder or Beneficial Owner to meet the requirements (including the certification requirements) of Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Code;

(iii) any Taxes which would not have been imposed, withheld or deducted but for the presentation by the Holder or Beneficial Owner of such Note for payment on a date more than 30 days after the date on which such payment became due and payable or the date on which payment of the Note is duly provided for and notice is given to Holders, whichever occurs later, except to the extent that the Holder or Beneficial Owner would have been entitled to such Additional Amounts on presenting such Note on any date during such 30-day period;

(iv) any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, excise, transfer, personal property, wealth or similar Taxes;

(v) any Taxes which are payable otherwise than by withholding or deduction from a payment in respect of such Note;

(vi) any Taxes which are imposed, withheld or deducted with respect to, or payable by, a Holder that is not the Beneficial Owner of the Note, or a portion of the Note, or that is a fiduciary, partnership, limited liability company or other similar entity, but, in each case, only to the extent that a Beneficial Owner, a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or member of such partnership, limited liability company or similar entity would not have been entitled to the payment of an Additional Amount had such Beneficial Owner, settlor, beneficiary or member received directly its beneficial or distributive share of the payment;

(vii) any Taxes required to be withheld or deducted by any Paying Agent from any payment on any Note, if such payment can be made without such withholding or deduction by at least one other Paying Agent;

(viii) any Taxes imposed, withheld or deducted under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (or any amended or successor provisions), any current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof, any agreement entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b) of the Code or any fiscal or regulatory legislation, rules or practices adopted pursuant to any intergovernmental agreement entered into in connection with the implementation of such sections of the Code;

(ix) any Taxes that would not have been imposed, withheld, deducted or levied but for a change in any law, treaty, regulation, or administrative or judicial interpretation that becomes effective more than 15 days after the applicable payment becomes due or is duly provided for, whichever occurs later; or

(x) any combination of items (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (vii), (viii) and (ix).

(c) For purposes of this Section 4.15, the acquisition, ownership, enforcement, or holding of or the receipt of any payment with respect to the Notes will not constitute a connection (1) between the Holder or Beneficial Owner and the Relevant Tax Jurisdiction or (2) between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder or other equity owner of, or a person having a power over, such Holder or Beneficial Owner if such Holder or Beneficial Owner is an estate, a trust, a limited liability company, a partnership, a corporation or other entity and the Relevant Tax Jurisdiction.

(d) If the Issuer is required to pay Additional Amounts with respect to the Notes, the Issuer will notify the Trustee and the applicable Paying Agent pursuant to an Officers’ Certificate that specifies the Additional Amounts payable with respect to the Notes and when the Additional Amounts are payable. If the Trustee and the applicable Paying Agent do not receive such an Officers’ Certificate from the Issuer, the Trustee and the applicable Paying Agent may rely on the absence of such an Officers’ Certificate in assuming that no such Additional Amounts are payable.

(e) All references in this Indenture to the payment of principal, premium or interest, if any, on any Notes or any payment made by the Issuer or the Guarantors shall be deemed to include Additional Amounts to the extent that, in that context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable.

Section 4.16. Existence. The Company will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence and the existence of each of its Restricted Subsidiaries in accordance with their respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time), and the material rights, licenses and franchises of the Company and each Restricted Subsidiary, provided that the Company is not required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the existence of any Restricted Subsidiary (other than the Issuer), if the maintenance or preservation thereof, in the judgment of the Company, is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole; and provided further that this Section does not prohibit any transaction otherwise permitted by Section 4.07 or Article 5.

Section 4.17. Payment of Taxes and other Claims. The Company will pay or discharge, and cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to pay or discharge before the same become delinquent (i) all material taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed upon the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary or its income or profits or property, and (ii) all material lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies that, if unpaid, might by law become a Lien upon the property of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than the Issuer), other than any such tax, assessment, charge or claim the amount, applicability or validity of which is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which adequate reserves have been established.

Section 4.18. Maintenance of Properties and Insurance. The Company will cause all properties used or useful in the conduct of its business or the business of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to be maintained and kept in good condition, repair and working order as in the judgment of the Company may be necessary so that the business of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries may be properly and advantageously conducted at all times; provided that nothing in this Section prevents the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary from discontinuing the use, operation or maintenance of any of such properties or disposing of any of them, if such discontinuance or disposal is, in the judgment of the Company, desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

Section 4.19. Annual Officer’s Certificate as to Compliance. Not later than June 1 every year, beginning with June 1, 2019, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee a certificate (which need not comply with Section 12.05 of this Indenture) executed by the principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer of the Company as to such officer’s knowledge of the Issuer’s compliance with all conditions and covenants under this Indenture, such compliance to be determined without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided under this Indenture.

Section 4.20. Limitation on Accounts Receivables Facilities. The Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of accounts receivable to a Securitization Subsidiary; provided that (i) the sale, transfer or other disposition is in connection with a Permitted Receivables Financing and (ii) the aggregate consideration received in each such sale, transfer or other disposition is at least equal to the fair market value of the receivables sold.

Section 4.21. Activities Prior to the Escrow Release Date.

(a) Prior to the Escrow Release Date, the primary activities of the Issuer shall be restricted to issuing the Notes, converting the proceeds to U.S. dollars, issuing capital stock to, and receiving capital contributions from, a direct or indirect parent entity, performing its obligations in respect of the Notes under this Indenture, the Escrow Agreement, redeeming the Notes, and conducting such other activities as are necessary or appropriate to carry out the activities described in this Section 4.21(a). Prior to the Escrow Release Date, the Issuer will not own, hold or otherwise have any interest in any assets other than the Escrow Account and cash and Cash Equivalents, as well as its rights under the Escrow Agreement, any swap agreements with respect to the proceeds of the Notes and any commitment letters with its direct or indirect parent entity.

(b) Prior to the Escrow Release Date, the Issuer shall not engage in any business activity or enter into any transaction or agreement (including, without limitation, making any restricted payment, Incurring any Debt (other than the Notes), incurring any Liens except to secure the Notes or with respect to any escrow arrangements thereto, entering into any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of its assets or

engaging in any transaction with its Affiliates other than any commitment letters with its direct or indirect parent entity) except in the ordinary course of the primary activities described in this Section 4.21 or as necessary or advisable (as determined by the Issuer) to effectuate the Transactions.

(c) On and following the Escrow Release Date, all covenants set forth in this Indenture and the Notes will be deemed to have been applicable to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries (but only at such time as such entities are Restricted Subsidiaries) as if in effect throughout the period from the Issue Date through the Escrow Release Date. Each Person, if any, that is not intended to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company following the Escrow Release Date will be automatically designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary when it becomes a Subsidiary of the Company, and such designation will not be treated as a Restricted Payment. Such Unrestricted Subsidiaries will not be party to this Indenture, will not Guarantee the Notes and will not be subject to the covenants in this Indenture or the Notes. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) all restrictive covenants set forth in this Indenture and the Notes will not be applicable to each of the Transferred Entities (as defined in the Acquisition Agreement) prior to becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company on the Escrow Release Date and (ii) if the Escrow Release Date does not occur, the covenants of this Indenture and the Notes will not be considered applicable to the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary.

ARTICLE 6

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

Section 6.01. Events of Default. The following events shall be “Events of Default”:

(a) the Issuer fails to make the payment of any interest, or Additional Amounts, if any, on any Note when the same becomes due and payable, and that failure continues for a period of 30 days;

(b) the Issuer fails to make the payment of any principal of, or premium, if any, on, any Note when the same becomes due and payable at its Stated Maturity, upon acceleration, redemption, optional redemption, required repurchase or otherwise;

(d) the failure by the Issuer to pay or cause to be paid the Special Redemption Price on the Special Redemption Date;

(e) the Issuer, the Company or any Guarantor fails to comply with any other covenant or agreement in the Notes or in this Indenture (other than a failure that is the subject of the foregoing clause (a), (b), (c) or (d)) and such failure continues for 60 days after written notice is given to the Issuer as specified below;

(f) a default under any Debt by the Issuer, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary that results in acceleration of the maturity of that Debt, or failure to pay any Debt at maturity, in an aggregate amount greater than $50.0 million or its foreign currency equivalent at the time;

(g) any judgment or judgments for the payment of money in an aggregate amount in excess of $50.0 million (or its foreign currency equivalent at the time) (net of amounts covered by insurance or bonded) that shall be rendered against the Issuer, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary and that shall not be waived, satisfied, annulled, discharged or rescinded for any period of 60 consecutive days during which a stay of enforcement shall not be in effect;

(h) the Issuer, the Company or any Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:

(i) commences a voluntary case;

(ii) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case;

(iii) consents to the appointment of a custodian of it or for any substantial part of its property; or

(iv) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors;

or takes any comparable action under any foreign laws relating to insolvency;

(i) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:

(i) is for relief against the Issuer, the Company or any Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case;

(ii) appoints a custodian of the Issuer, the Company or any Significant Subsidiary or for any substantial part of its property;

(iii) orders the winding up or liquidation of the Issuer, the Company or any Significant Subsidiary; or

(iv) grants any similar relief under any foreign laws relating to insolvency;

and in each such case the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 90 days;

(j) except as permitted under this Indenture, any Note Guaranty of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary ceases to be in full force and effect, other than in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, or a Guarantor denies or disaffirms its obligations under its Note Guaranty if, and only if, in each such case, such default continues for 10 days; or

(k) at any time prior to the Escrow Release Date, the Issuer defaults in the performance of, or breaches, any material covenant or agreement of the Issuer in the Escrow Agreement, or the Lien on the property in the Escrow Account ceases to be perfected or have the priority intended to be provided in the Escrow Agreement, or the Escrow Agreement ceases to be in full force and effect or the Issuer asserts the invalidity thereof.

A Default under clause (c) or (e) is not an Event of Default until the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding notify the Issuer of the Default and the Issuer does not cure that Default within the time specified after receipt of such notice (the “Notice of Default”). The notice must specify the Default, demand that it be remedied and state that the notice is a “Notice of Default.”

The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days after the occurrence thereof, written notice in the form of an Officers’ Certificate of any event that with the giving of notice and the lapse of time would become an Event of Default, its status and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

Section 6.02. Acceleration. If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes (other than an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.01(h) or 6.01(i) with respect to the Issuer or the Company) shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee or the registered Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding may, by notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, declare to be immediately due and payable the principal amount of all the Notes then outstanding, plus accrued but unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, to the date of acceleration. Upon such a declaration, such principal and interest and Additional Amounts, if any, shall be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.01(h) or 6.01(i) with respect to the Issuer or the Company occurs, the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on all the Notes shall be due and payable immediately without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or the Holders of the Notes. After any such acceleration but before a judgment or decree based on acceleration is obtained by the Trustee, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes may, by notice to the Trustee and the Issuer, rescind and annul any declaration of acceleration (i) if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree, (ii) if all existing Events of Default have been cured or waived (other than nonpayment of principal, premium, or interest and Additional Amounts, if any, that has become due solely because of the acceleration), and (iii) there has been deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel incurred in connection with the rescinded Event of Default. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

In the event of a default under the Escrow Agreement, the Holders shall have the right to direct the exercise of the remedies of the Trustee under the Escrow Agreement. In the event of an acceleration of the principal of and interest on the Notes prior to the termination of the Escrow Agreement, the Trustee shall deliver a Single Party Payment Instruction to the Escrow Agent, directing the Escrow Agent to release the Escrow Property to the Trustee pursuant to the Escrow Agreement. The Trustee will distribute such Escrow Property pursuant to the priorities described in Section 6.10.

Section 6.03. Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal of, or premium, if any, interest or Additional Amounts, if any, on, the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture.

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

Section 6.04. Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (including consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, the Notes) by notice to the Trustee may waive an existing Default and its consequences except (i) a Default in the payment of the principal of or interest or Additional Amounts, if any, on a Note or (ii) a Default in respect of a provision that under Section 9.02 cannot be amended without the consent of each Noteholder adversely affected. When a Default is waived, it is deemed cured, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any consequent right. If a Default is deemed to occur solely as a consequence of the existence of another Default (the “Initial Default”), then, at the time such Initial Default is cured (including the payment of default interest, if any), the Default that resulted solely because that Initial Default will also be cured without any further action.

Section 6.05. Control by Majority. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Notes. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or the Escrow Agreement or that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Noteholders or would involve the Trustee in personal liability; provided, however, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction. Subject to Section 7.01, in case an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers hereunder at the request or direction of any of the Holders, unless the Holders shall have offered to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to it.

Section 6.06. Limitation on Suits. A Noteholder may not institute any proceeding with respect to this Indenture or the Notes, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes, unless:

(a) such Holder shall have previously given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default;

(b) the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding shall have made a written request, and such Holder or Holders shall have offered reasonable security or indemnity, to the Trustee to institute such proceeding as trustee; and

(c) the Trustee has not received from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request and has failed to institute such proceeding within 60 days after such notice.

Section 6.07. Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of, and interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on, the Notes held by such Holder, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Notes, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder. A Noteholder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Noteholder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Noteholder (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not such actions or forbearances are unduly prejudicial to such Holders).

Section 6.08. Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a) or 6.01(b) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer for the whole amount then due and owing (together with interest on any unpaid interest to the extent lawful) and the amounts provided for in this Indenture.

Section 6.09. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee may 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 Noteholders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer, its creditors or its property and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may vote on behalf of the Holders in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing similar functions, and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for such compensation as agreed upon in writing by the parties hereto, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under this Indenture, or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereunder.

Section 6.10. Priorities. If the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article 6 (including pursuant to the Escrow Agreement), it shall pay out the money or property in the following order:

FIRST: to the Trustee for all amounts due under this Indenture;

SECOND: to Noteholders for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal and interest and Additional Amounts, if any, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal and interest and Additional Amounts, if any, respectively; and

THIRD: to the Issuer.

The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Noteholders pursuant to this Section. At least 15 days before such record date, the Issuer shall mail to each Noteholder and the Trustee a notice that states the record date, the payment date and amount to be paid.

Section 6.11. Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in the suit (other than the Trustee), having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.07 or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes.

Section 6.12. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. The Issuer (to the extent it may lawfully do so) shall not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Issuer (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

Section 6.13. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted a proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and the proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to the Holder, then, subject to any determination in the proceeding, the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders will be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders will continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

Section 6.14. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. No right or remedy conferred or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders under this Indenture is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and all such rights and remedies are, to the extent permitted by law, cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or exercise of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, will not prevent the concurrent assertion or exercise of any other right or remedy.

Section 6.15. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default will impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

ARTICLE 7

TRUSTEE

Section 7.01. Duties of Trustee.

(j) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder.

(k) The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the performance of its powers and duties hereunder.

(l) The Trustee may request that the Issuer deliver a certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture.

(m) Delivery of any reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive or actual 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 may conclusively rely on a certificate of an authorized Officer of the Issuer).

(n) The Trustee shall have no duty or responsibility to monitor the Issuer’s and the Company’s compliance with the covenants included in Article 4 or the transfer restrictions on the Notes.

The provisions of this Section 7.02 shall survive satisfaction and discharge or the termination, for any reason, of this Indenture and the resignation and/or removal of the Trustee.

Section 7.03. Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee must comply with Sections 7.10 and 7.11.

Section 7.04. Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity, priority or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes, it shall not be accountable for the Issuer’s use of the proceeds from the Notes, and it shall not be responsible for any statement of the Issuer in this Indenture or in any other document other than the certificate of authentication executed by the Trustee.

Section 7.05. Notice of Defaults. If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing of which the Trustee has received written notice, the Trustee shall deliver to each Noteholder notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after written notice of it is received by a Trust Officer of the Trustee. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of, or interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on any Note, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Noteholders.

Section 7.06. Reports by Trustee to Holders. As promptly as practicable after each December 31 beginning with December 31, 2018, and in any event prior to February 28 in each year, the Trustee shall deliver to each Noteholder a brief report dated as of December 31 each year that complies with TIA § 313(a), if and to the extent required by such subsection. The Trustee shall also comply with TIA § 313(b).

A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Noteholders shall be filed with the SEC and each stock exchange (if any) on which the Notes are listed. The Issuer agrees to notify promptly the Trustee whenever the Notes become listed on any stock exchange and of any delisting thereof.

Section 7.07. Compensation and Indemnity. The Issuer shall pay to the Trustee from time to time such reasonable compensation for its services as agreed upon in writing by the parties hereto. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable, documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and reasonable, documented out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts. The Issuer shall indemnify the Trustee against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage, penalty, action, suit, cost and expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and out-of-pocket expenses and taxes (other than taxes based upon, measured by or determined by the income of the Trustee)) incurred by it in connection with the acceptance or administration of the trust hereunder and/or the transactions contemplated under this Indenture and the Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility for any action or inaction on the part of any Paying Agent, Registrar, Authentication Agent or any successor trustee. The Trustee shall notify the Issuer promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that the Issuer shall have been actually prejudiced as a result of such failure. The Issuer shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall provide reasonable cooperation at the Issuer’s expense in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Issuer shall pay the fees and

expenses of such counsel; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be required to pay such fees and expenses if it assumes the Trustee’s defense and, in the Trustee’s reasonable judgment, there is no actual or potential conflict of interest between the Issuer and the Trustee in connection with such defense. The Issuer need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Trustee through the Trustee’s own willful misconduct or negligence. The Issuer need not pay for any settlement made by the Trustee without the Issuer’s consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. All indemnifications and releases from liability granted hereunder to the Trustee shall extend to its officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns.

To secure the Issuer’s payment obligations in this Section, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee other than money or property held in trust to pay principal of interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on particular Notes.

The Issuer’s payment obligations pursuant to this Section shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee and the discharge of this Indenture. When the Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in Sections 6.01(h) or 6.01(i) with respect to the Issuer, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under the Bankruptcy Law.

The provisions of this Section 7.07 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge or termination, for any reason, of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee.

Section 7.08. Replacement of Trustee. The Trustee may resign at any time by providing 30 days’ prior written notice to the Issuer. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may remove the Trustee by providing 30 days’ prior written notice to the Trustee and may appoint a successor Trustee. The Issuer may remove the Trustee by providing 30 days’ prior written notice if:

(a) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10;

(b) the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law;

(d) the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting; or

(e) there is no Event of Default continuing and no event that upon notice or lapse of time or both, would become an Event of Default.

If the Trustee resigns, is removed by the Issuer or by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding and such Holders do not reasonably promptly appoint a successor Trustee, or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason (the Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Trustee), the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee.

A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuer. Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Noteholders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided for in Section 7.07.

If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, at the reasonable expense of the Issuer, or the Holders of 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10, any Noteholder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note for at least six months may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

Notwithstanding the replacement or resignation of the Trustee pursuant to this Section, the Issuer’s obligations under Section 7.07 shall continue for the benefit of the Trustee and survive the termination of this Indenture.

Section 7.09. Successor Trustee by Merger. If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation or banking association without any further act shall be the successor Trustee.

Section 7.10. Eligibility; Disqualification. The Trustee shall at all times satisfy the requirements of TIA § 310(a). The Trustee shall have (or, in the case of a corporation included in a bank holding company system, the related bank holding company shall have) a combined capital and surplus of at least $50.0 million as set forth in its (or its related bank holding company’s) most recent published annual report of condition. The Trustee shall comply with TIA § 310(b), subject to the penultimate paragraph thereof; provided, however, that there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA § 310(b)(i) any indenture or indentures under which other securities or certificates of interest or participation in other securities of the Issuer are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA § 310(b)(1) are met.

Section 7.11. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Issuer. The Trustee shall comply with TIA § 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA § 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA § 311(a) to the extent indicated.

Section 7.12. Escrow Authorization. Each Holder of a Note, by its acceptance of an Original Note, consents and agrees to the terms of the Escrow Agreement, including documents related thereto, as the same may be in effect or may be amended from time to time in writing by the parties thereto in accordance with this Indenture.

ARTICLE 8

DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE; DEFEASANCE

Section 8.01. Discharge of Liability on Notes; Defeasance. (a) When (i) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee all outstanding Notes (other than Notes replaced pursuant to Section 2.07) for cancellation and the Issuer has paid all sums payable by it hereunder, or (ii) (A) all outstanding Notes mature within one year or all of the outstanding Notes are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for giving the notice of redemption, (B) the Issuer irrevocably deposits with the Trustee funds in euros, Euro Government Obligations or a combination thereof sufficient in the opinion of a nationally recognized accounting firm, to pay at maturity or upon redemption all outstanding Notes, including interest thereon to maturity or such redemption date (other than Notes replaced pursuant to Section 2.07), (C) no Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of the deposit, (D) the deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute default under, this Indenture or any other material agreement or instrument to which the Issuer is a party or by which it is bound, and (E) the Issuer pays all other sums payable hereunder by the Issuer, then this Indenture shall, subject to Section 8.01(c), cease to be of further effect. The Trustee shall acknowledge satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture on written demand of the Issuer accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel and at the cost and expense of the Issuer.

(b) Subject to Sections 8.01(c) and 8.02, the Issuer at any time may terminate (i) all of its obligations under the Notes and this Indenture (“legal defeasance option”) or (ii) its obligations under Sections 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.14, 4.17, 4.18, 4.19 and 4.20 and the operation of Sections 6.01(e) (with respect to the covenants of Article 4 identified in the immediately preceding paragraph), 6.01(f), 6.01(g), 6.01(h), 6.01(i) and 6.01(j) (but, in the case of Sections 6.01(h) and 6.01(i), with respect only to Significant Subsidiaries) and the limitations contained in clause (e) of Section 5.02 (“covenant defeasance option”). The Issuer may exercise its legal defeasance option notwithstanding its prior exercise of its covenant defeasance option.

If the Issuer exercises its legal defeasance option, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default. If the Issuer exercises its covenant defeasance option, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.01(c), 6.01(e) (with respect to the covenants of Article 4 identified in the immediately preceding paragraph), 6.01(f), 6.01(g), 6.01(h), 6.01(i) or 6.01(j) (with respect only to Significant Subsidiaries in the case of Sections 6.01(h) and 6.01(i)) or because of the failure of the Company to comply with the limitations contained in clause (e) of Section 5.02.

Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein and upon request of the Issuer, accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent specified herein relating to the defeasance contemplated have been complied with, the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of those obligations that the Issuer terminates.

(c) Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, the Issuer’s obligations in Sections 2.04, 2.05, 2.06, 2.07, 7.07, 7.08, 8.05 and 8.06 shall survive until the Notes have been paid in full. Thereafter, the Issuer’s obligations in Sections 7.07 and 8.05 shall survive such satisfaction or discharge.

Section 8.02. Conditions to Defeasance. The Issuer may exercise its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option only if:

(a) the Issuer irrevocably deposits in trust with the Trustee money in euro, Euro Government Obligations or a combination thereof for the payment of principal (including premium, if any) of, and interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes to maturity or a redemption date permitted under this Indenture;

(b) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee a certificate from a U.S. nationally recognized accounting firm expressing their opinion that the payment of principal (including premium, if any) of, and interest and Additional Amounts, if any, when due and without reinvestment on the deposited Euro Government Obligations plus any deposited money without investment will provide cash at such times and in such amounts as will be sufficient to pay principal (including premium, if any), and interest and Additional Amounts, if any, when due on all the Notes to maturity or redemption, as the case may be;

(c) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of the deposit and after giving effect thereto;

(d) the deposit does not constitute a default under any other material agreement or instrument binding on the Issuer or the Company;

(e) in the case of the legal defeasance option, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that:

(i) the Issuer has received from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or

(ii) 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 Noteholders will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such 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 defeasance had not occurred;

(f) 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 Noteholders will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such covenant defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such covenant defeasance had not occurred; and

(g) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to the defeasance and discharge of this Indenture and the Notes as contemplated by this Article 8 have been complied with.

Simultaneous with a deposit, the Issuer may make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the redemption of Notes at a future date in accordance with Article 3.

Section 8.03. Application of Trust Money. The Trustee shall hold in trust money in euros, Euro Government Obligations or a combination thereof deposited with it pursuant to this Article 8. It shall apply the deposited money in euros, Euro Government Obligations or a combination thereof through the Paying Agent and in accordance with this Indenture to the payment of principal of and interest, and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes.

Section 8.04. Repayment to Issuer. The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall promptly turn over to the Issuer upon written request any excess money or securities held by them upon satisfaction of the conditions and occurrence of the events set forth in this Article 8.

Subject to any applicable abandoned property law, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Issuer upon request any money held by them for the payment of principal or interest and Additional Amounts, if any, that remains unclaimed for two years, and, thereafter, Noteholders entitled to the money must look to the Issuer for payment as general creditors.

Section 8.05. Indemnity for Euro Government Obligations. The Issuer shall pay and shall indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against deposited Euro Government Obligations or the principal and interest received on such Euro Government Obligations.

Section 8.06. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money in euros, Euro Government Obligations or a combination thereof in accordance with this Article 8 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article 8 until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or Euro Government Obligations in accordance with this Article 8; provided, however, that, if the Issuer has made any payment of interest on or principal of any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or Euro Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

ARTICLE 9

AMENDMENTS

Section 9.01. Without Consent of Holders. The Issuer and the Trustee may amend this Indenture, the Notes or the Escrow Agreement without notice to or consent of any Noteholder:

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

(b) to provide for the assumption by a successor of the obligations of the Issuer or any Guarantor under this Indenture,

(c) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes; provided, however, that the uncertificated Notes are issued in definitive, fully registered form for purposes of the Code;

(d) to add Guarantees with respect to the Notes or release Guarantors from their Note Guarantees as provided by the terms of this Indenture or the Note Guarantees;

(e) to secure the Notes (and, thereafter, provide releases of collateral in accordance with the security documents entered into in connection therewith), to add to the covenants of the Issuer or any Guarantor for the benefit of the Holders or to surrender any right or power herein conferred upon the Issuer or any Guarantor;

(f) to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of Notes or make any change that does not materially adversely affect the rights of any Noteholder;

(g) to comply with any requirements of the SEC in connection with qualifying, or maintaining the qualification of, this Indenture under the TIA (it being agreed that this Indenture need not be qualified under the TIA);

(h) to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in accordance with this Indenture;

(i) to provide for the issuance of exchange notes that shall have terms substantially identical in all respects to the Notes (except that the transfer restrictions contained in the Notes shall be modified or eliminated as appropriate) and which shall be treated, together with any outstanding Notes, as a single class of securities;

(j) to provide for the appointment of a successor trustee; provided that the successor trustee is otherwise qualified and eligible to act as such under the terms of this Indenture;

(k) to conform any provision of this Indenture to the “Description of Notes” contained in the Offering Memorandum; or

(l) to comply with the procedures of Euroclear, Clearstream or the Trustee with respect to the provisions in this Indenture and the Notes relating to transfers and exchanges of Notes or beneficial interests in Notes.

The consent of the Holders of the Notes is not necessary to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment. It is sufficient if such consent approves the substance of the proposed amendment. After an amendment becomes effective, the Issuer is required to deliver to each registered Holder of the Notes at the Holder’s address appearing in the security register a notice briefly describing the amendment. However, the failure to give this notice to all Holders of the Notes, or any defect therein, will not impair or affect the validity of the amendment. In connection with any modification, amendment or supplement, the Issuer will deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel and an Officers’ Certificate upon which the Trustee may conclusively rely, each stating that such modification, amendment or supplement complies with the applicable provisions of this Indenture.

Section 9.02. With Consent of Holders. The Issuer and the Trustee may amend this Indenture, the Notes or the Escrow Agreement without notice to any Noteholder but with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (including consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, the Notes). However, without the consent of each Noteholder adversely affected thereby, an amendment may not:

(a) reduce the amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment or waiver;

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

(d) make any Note payable in money other than that stated therein;

(e) make any change to the contractual right of any Holder of the Notes expressly set forth in this Indenture or the Notes to receive payment of principal of and interest on that Holder’s Notes on or after the due dates therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to that Holder’s Notes;

(f) expressly subordinate the Notes to any other obligation of the Issuer or any Guarantor, except as otherwise permitted under this Indenture or the Notes;

(g) reduce the premium payable upon the redemption of any Note or change the time at which any Note may be redeemed, as set forth in Section 3.07 or as set forth in the Notes;

(h) reduce the premium payable upon a Change of Control or, at any time after a Change of Control has occurred, change the time at which the Change of Control Offer relating thereto must be made or at which the Notes must be repurchased pursuant to that Change of Control Offer;

(i) at any time after the Issuer is obligated to make a Prepayment Offer with the Excess Proceeds from Asset Sales, change the time at which the Prepayment Offer must be made or at which the Notes must be repurchased pursuant thereto;

(j) change the time at which a Special Redemption must be made or reduce the price to be paid; or

(k) release any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its Note Guaranty or this Indenture, except in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.

Section 9.03. Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. Every amendment to this Indenture or the Notes shall comply with the TIA as then in effect.

Section 9.04. Revocation and Effect of Consents and Waivers. A consent to an amendment or a waiver by a Holder of a Note shall bind the Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Note or portion of the Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent or waiver is not made on the Note. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent or waiver as to such Holder’s Note or portion of the Note if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date the amendment or waiver becomes effective. After an amendment or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Noteholder. An amendment or waiver becomes effective upon the execution of such amendment or waiver by the Trustee.

The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Noteholders entitled to give their consent or take any other action described above or required or permitted to be taken pursuant to this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Noteholders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent previously given or to take any such action, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 120 days after such record date.

Section 9.05. Notation on or Exchange of Notes. If an amendment changes the terms of a Note, the Trustee may require the Holder of the Note to deliver such Note to the Trustee. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Note regarding the changed terms and return such Note to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Issuer or the Trustee so determines, the Issuer in exchange for the Note shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Note that reflects the changed terms. Failure to make the appropriate notation or to issue a new Note shall not affect the validity of such amendment.

Section 9.06. Trustee to Sign Amendments. The Trustee shall sign any amendment authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may but need not sign it. In signing such amendment the Trustee shall receive indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it and shall receive, and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in conclusively relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 12.04, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer, enforceable in accordance with its terms.

ARTICLE 10

GUARANTEES

Section 10.01. The Guarantees. Subject to the provisions of this Article, each Guarantor that executes a supplemental indenture in the form of Exhibit B hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, jointly and severally, on an unsecured basis, the full and punctual payment (whether at Stated Maturity, upon redemption, purchase pursuant to an offer to purchase required under Section 4.07 or Section 4.12 or acceleration, or otherwise) of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on, and all other amounts payable under, each Note, and the full and punctual payment of all other amounts payable by the Issuer under this Indenture (including the Issuer’s obligations under Section 7.07 hereof). Upon failure by the Issuer to pay punctually any such amount, each Guarantor shall forthwith on demand pay the amount not so paid at the place and in the manner specified in this Indenture.

Section 10.02. Guaranty Unconditional. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, will not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by:

(a) any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or release in respect of any obligation of the Issuer under this Indenture or any Note, by operation of law or otherwise;

(b) any modification or amendment of or supplement to this Indenture or any Note;

(c) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of the Issuer, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting the Issuer or its assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of the Issuer contained in this Indenture or any Note;

(d) the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights which the Guarantor may have at any time against the Issuer, the Trustee or any other Person, whether in connection with this Indenture or any unrelated transactions, provided that nothing herein prevents the assertion of any such claim by separate suit or compulsory counterclaim;

(e) any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against the Issuer for any reason of this Indenture or any Note, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by the Issuer of the principal of or interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on any Note or any other amount payable by the Issuer under this Indenture; or

(f) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Issuer, the Trustee or any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever which might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of or defense to such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder.

Section 10.03. Discharge; Reinstatement. Each Guarantor’s obligations hereunder will remain in full force and effect until the principal of, premium, if any, and interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes and all other amounts payable by the Issuer under this Indenture have been paid in full. If at any time any payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on any Note or any other amount payable by the Issuer under this Indenture is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer or otherwise, each Guarantor’s obligations hereunder with respect to such payment will be reinstated as though such payment had been due but not made at such time.

Section 10.04. Waiver by the Guarantors. Each Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against the Issuer or any other Person.

Section 10.05. Subrogation and Contribution. Upon making any payment with respect to any obligation of the Issuer under this Article, the Guarantor making such payment will be subrogated to the rights of the payee against the Issuer with respect to such obligation, provided that the Guarantor may not enforce either any right of subrogation, or any right to receive payment in the nature of contribution, or otherwise, from any other Guarantor, with respect to such payment so long as any amount payable by the Issuer hereunder or under the Notes remains unpaid.

Section 10.06. Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by the Issuer under this Indenture or the Notes is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of this Indenture are nonetheless payable by the Guarantors hereunder forthwith on demand by the Trustee or the Holders.

Section 10.07. Limitation on Amount of Guaranty. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article, each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Note Guaranty of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent conveyance under applicable fraudulent conveyance provisions of the Bankruptcy Law or any comparable provision of state law. To effectuate that intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of each Guarantor under its Note Guaranty are limited to the maximum amount that would not render the Guarantor’s obligations subject to avoidance under applicable fraudulent conveyance provisions of the Bankruptcy Law or any comparable provision of state law.

Section 10.08. Execution and Delivery of Guaranty. The execution by each Guarantor of this Indenture (or a supplemental indenture in the form of Exhibit B) evidences the Note Guaranty of such Guarantor, whether or not the person signing as an officer of the Guarantor still holds that office at the time of authentication of any Note. The delivery of any Note by the Trustee after authentication constitutes due delivery of the Note Guaranty set forth in this Indenture on behalf of each Guarantor.

Section 10.09. Release of Guaranty.

(a) The Note Guaranty of a Subsidiary Guarantor will terminate, and the Note Guaranty will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged, upon:

(i) a sale or other disposition (including by way of consolidation or merger) of Capital Stock of the Subsidiary Guarantor following which such Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Company or the sale or disposition of all or substantially all the Property of the Subsidiary Guarantor (in each case other than to the Issuer, the Company or a Domestic Restricted Subsidiary) otherwise permitted by this Indenture,

(ii) the release or discharge of such Subsidiary Guarantor’s guarantee of the obligations under the New Credit Agreement other than a release or discharge through payment thereon,

(iii) the designation in accordance with this Indenture of the Subsidiary Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary,

(iv) such Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary and such Subsidiary Guarantor is not otherwise required to provide a Guarantee of the Notes pursuant to the provisions set forth in Section 4.14 or

(v) defeasance or discharge of the Notes, as provided in Article 8.

The Escrow Account and the Escrow Property shall be pledged to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Noteholders. The Issuer represents and warrants that it is duly incorporated and validly existing as a corporation under the laws of the Netherlands and is not organized under the laws of any other jurisdiction, and the Escrow Issuer hereby agrees that, prior to the termination of the period from the date hereof through the first to occur of the Escrow Release Date or the Date of Determination, it will not change its name or jurisdiction of organization without giving the Trustee, the Escrow Agent and the Representative not more than 10 or less than five days’ prior written notice thereof.

Section 11.02. Conditions to Release. Subject to the Escrow Agreement and this Article 11, the Escrow Property will be distributed:

(a) to the Issuer, upon delivery by the Issuer to the Trustee and Escrow Agent of an (i) Officers’ Certificate (the “Escrow Release Date Officers’ Certificate”), addressed to the Trustee and the Escrow Agent, certifying that (x) all of Escrow Conditions have been met or will be satisfied concurrently with the release of the Escrow Property, (y) all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture have been complied with, and (z) directing the Trustee and the Issuer to execute and deliver a Joint Payment Instruction to the Escrow Agent to release all of the Escrow Property to the Escrow Issuer, and (ii) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture have been complied with.

Upon receipt of such Escrow Release Date Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel, the Trustee shall promptly execute and deliver to the Escrow Agent a Joint Payment Instruction instructing the Escrow Agent to release all of the Escrow Property to the Issuer.

(b) to the Paying Agent, if the Escrow Release Date has not occurred on or prior to the Date of Determination in which case, the Issuer will deliver to the Trustee on the next Business Day succeeding the Date of Determination (i) a Date of Determination Officer Certificate, and (ii) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture have been complied with.

If the amount of the Escrow Property transferred or to be transferred by the Escrow Agent pursuant to clause (b) or (c) above to the Paying Agent is less than the amount required to fund the Special Redemption at the Special Redemption Price on the Special Redemption Date set forth in the notice of Special Redemption, the Issuer will transfer or cause to be transferred to the Paying Agent no later than the Business Day prior to the Special Redemption Date, such shortfall amount in euros, such that the aggregate amount delivered to the Paying Agent by the Escrow Agent and the Issuer will be sufficient, without reinvestment, to fund the Special Redemption at the Special Redemption Price on the Special Redemption Date set forth in the notice of Special Redemption. The Issuer agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce its rights under the Company Commitment Letter to obtain such shortfall amount from the Company and cause such amount to be transferred to the Paying Agent no later than the Business Day prior to the Special Redemption Date.

Section 12.09. Governing Law/Waiver of Trial by Jury; Submission to Jurisdiction. THIS INDENTURE, THE NOTES AND THE NOTE GUARANTEES AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE RELATING TO OR ARISING OUT OF THIS INDENTURE, THE NOTES AND THE GUARANTEES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK BUT WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW TO THE EXTENT THAT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AND EACH HOLDER OF NOTES BY ITS ACCEPTANCE THEREOF IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE, THE NOTES, THE GUARANTEES OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

The parties irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Indenture. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the parties irrevocably waive and agree not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, any claim that it is not subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

Section 12.10. Appointment of Agent for Service.

(a) The Issuer has appointed the Company, as its authorized agent (the “Authorized Agent”) upon whom all writs, process and summonses may be served in any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or based upon the Indenture or the Notes which may be instituted in any New York state or U.S. federal court in New York City, New York. The Issuer represents and warrants that the Authorized Agent has accepted such appointment and has agreed to act as said agent for service of process, and the Issuer agrees to take any and all actions, including the filing of any and all documents, that may be necessary to continue each such appointment

105

in full force and effect as aforesaid so long as the Notes remain outstanding. The Issuer agrees that the appointment of the Authorized Agent shall be irrevocable so long as any of the Notes remain outstanding or until the irrevocable appointment by Issuer of a successor agent in the United States as their authorized agent for such purpose and the acceptance of such appointment by such successor. Service of process upon the Authorized Agent shall be deemed, in every respect, effective service of process upon the Issuer. Copies of any such process so served shall also be given to the Issuer in accordance with Section 12.02 hereof, but the failure of the Issuer to receive such copies shall not affect in any way the service of such process as aforesaid.

(b) To the extent that the Issuer or any of its respective properties, assets or revenues may have or hereafter become entitled to, or have attributed to the Issuer, any right of immunity, on the grounds of sovereignty or otherwise, from any legal action, suit or proceeding, from the giving of any relief in any such legal action, suit or proceeding, from setoff or from counterclaim from the jurisdiction of any Dutch, New York State, U.S. federal court or other applicable jurisdiction, from service of process, from attachment upon or prior to judgment, from attachment in aid of execution of judgment, or from execution of judgment, or other legal process or proceeding for the giving of any relief or for the enforcement of any judgment, in any such court in which proceedings may at any time be commenced, with respect to the obligations and liabilities of the Issuer, or any other matter under or arising out of or in connection with, the Notes or the Indenture, the Issuer irrevocably and unconditionally waives or shall waive such right to the extent permitted by applicable law, and agree not to plead or claim any such immunity and consent to such relief and enforcement.

Section 12.11. Currency Indemnity and Calculation of Euro-denominated Restriction.

(a) All payments of interest and principal, including payments made upon any redemption of the Notes, will be payable in euro. If, on or after the issuance of the Notes, the euro is unavailable to the Issuer due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond its control or if the euro is no longer being used by the then member states of the European Monetary Union that have adopted the euro as their currency or for the settlement of transactions by public institutions of or within the international banking community, then all payments in respect of the Notes, will be made in U.S. dollars until the euro is again available to the Issuer or so used. In such circumstances, the amount payable on any date in euro will be converted into U.S. dollars at the rate mandated by the U.S. Federal Reserve Board as of the close of business on the second business day prior to the relevant payment date or, in the event the U.S. Federal Reserve Board has not mandated a rate of conversion, on the basis of the then most recent U.S. dollar/euro exchange rate available on or prior to the second business day prior to the relevant payment date as determined by the Issuer in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any payment in respect of the Notes so made in U.S. dollars will not constitute an Event of Default under the Notes or this Indenture. Neither the Trustee nor any Paying Agent shall have any responsibility for any calculation or conversion in connection with the foregoing.

106

(b) If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder to the Holder of a Note from the currency in which payments under the Notes and the Indenture are payable into another currency (the “Required Currency”), the Issuer and the Guarantors agree, and each Holder agrees, to the fullest extent that the Issuer, each Guarantor and each Holder may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used will be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures such Holder could purchase the Required Currency with such other currency in New York City, New York on the day two Business Days preceding the day on which final judgment is given.

(c) The Issuer and the Guarantors obligations in respect of any sum payable by them to a Holder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the Required Currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Holder of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, such Holder may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Required Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of the Required Currency so purchased is less than the amount originally due and payable to the Holder in the Judgment Currency (determined in the manner set forth in the preceding clause (b)), the Issuer and each Guarantor agree, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Holder of such Note against such loss, and if the amount of the Required Currency so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to such Holder, such Holder agrees to pay to the Issuer or such Guarantor such excess, provided that such Holder will have no obligation to pay any such excess as long as the Issuer and the Guarantors have failed to pay such Holder any obligations due and payable under such Note, in which case such excess may be applied to the Issuer or the Guarantors obligations under such Note in accordance with the terms thereof.

(d) The indemnities of the Issuer and the Guarantors contained in this Section, to the extent permitted by law: (i) constitute a separate and independent obligation from the other obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors under the Indenture and the Notes; (ii) shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action against the Issuer and the Guarantors; (iii) shall apply irrespective of any waiver granted by any Holder of the Notes from time to time (other than a waiver of the indemnities set out herein); and (iv) shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any other judgment, order, claim or proof for a liquidated amount in respect of any sum due under the Notes.

Section 12.12. No Recourse Against Others. No past, present or future director, officer, employee or shareholder, as such, of the Issuer or any Guarantor shall have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or any Guarantor under the Notes, this Indenture or any Note Guaranty or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Note, each Noteholder shall waive and release all such liability. The waiver and release shall be part of the consideration for the issue of the Notes.

Section 12.13. Successors. All agreements of the Issuer and the Guarantors in this Indenture and the Notes shall bind their respective successors. All agreements of the Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successors.

107

Section 12.14. Multiple Originals. The parties may sign any number of copies of this Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent the same agreement. One signed copy is enough to prove this Indenture. Delivery of an executed signature page by facsimile or electronic transmission (e.g. “pdf” or “tif”), or any electronic signature complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, Uniform Electronic Transactions Act or other applicable law, e.g., www.docusign.com, shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof.

Section 12.15. Table of Contents; Headings. The table of contents, cross-reference sheet and headings of the Articles and Sections of this Indenture and the Notes have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not intended to be considered a part hereof and shall not modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.

Section 12.16. Force Majeure. In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it being understood that the Trustee shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.

Section 12.17. U.S.A. Patriot Act. The parties hereto acknowledge that in accordance with Section 326 of the U.S.A. Patriot Act, the Trustee, like all financial institutions and in order to help fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering, is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person or legal entity that establishes a relationship or opens an account with the Trustee. The parties to this Indenture agree that they will provide the Trustee with such information within the Issuer’s custody or control or as the Issuer may reasonably obtain that the Trustee may request in order for the Trustee to satisfy the requirements of the U.S.A. Patriot Act.

Section 12.18. FATCA. In order to assist the Trustee with its compliance with Sections 1471 through 1474 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code and the rules and regulations thereunder (as in effect from time to time, collectively, the “Applicable Law”) the Issuer agrees (i) to provide to the Trustee reasonably available information regarding the Issuer or the Holders of Notes (solely in their capacity as such) and which is necessary for the Trustee’s determination of whether it has tax related obligations under Applicable Law and (ii) that the Trustee shall be entitled to make any withholding or deduction from payments under this Indenture to the extent necessary to comply with Applicable Law and shall have no liability in connection therewith other than as a result of its negligence or willful misconduct. Nothing in the immediately preceding sentence shall be construed as obligating the Issuer to make any “gross up” payment or similar reimbursement in connection with a payment in respect of which amounts are so withheld or deducted.

Members of, or participants, in Euroclear and Clearstream (“Agent Members”) shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the Common Depositary or by the Trustee as Notes Custodian or under such Global Note, and the Common Depositary may be treated by the Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee as the absolute owner of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever.

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

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

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

(iv) In the event that a Global Note is exchanged for Definitive Notes pursuant to Section 2.4, such Notes may be exchanged only in accordance with

Appendix A-4

such procedures as are substantially consistent with the provisions of this Section 2.3 (including the certification requirements set forth on the reverse of the Original Notes intended to ensure that such transfers comply with Rule 144A, Regulation S or such other applicable exemption from registration under the Securities Act, as the case may be) and such other procedures as may from time to time be adopted by the Issuer.

At such time as all beneficial interests in a Global Note have either been exchanged for Definitive Notes, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, such Global Note shall be returned by the Common Depositary to the Trustee for cancellation pursuant to its customary practice.

At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for Definitive Notes, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note shall be reduced and an adjustment shall be made on the books and records of the Trustee or by the Common Depositary at the direction of the Trustee, as applicable (if it is then the Notes Custodian for such Global Note) or the applicable Notes Custodian with respect to such Global Note, by the Trustee or by the Common Depositary at the direction of the Trustee or the Notes Custodian, as applicable, to reflect such reduction.

2.4. Definitive Notes.

(a) A Global Note deposited with the Common Depositary or with the Trustee as Notes Custodian pursuant to Section 2.1 shall be transferred (or, in the case of clause (ii) below, shall be transferrable) to the beneficial owners thereof in the form of Definitive Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Global Note, in exchange for such Global Note, only if such transfer complies with Section 2.3 and (i) Euroclear or Clearstream, as applicable, acting through itself or the Common Depositary, notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as a clearing system for such Global Note or if at any time Euroclear or Clearstream ceases to be a “clearing agency” registered under the Exchange Act, at a time when Euroclear or Clearstream is required to be so registered in order to act as depositary, and a successor clearing system is not appointed by the Issuer within 120 days of such notice, or (ii) an Event of Default has occurred or is continuing and the beneficial owner of a Global Note deposited with the Common Depositary requests such exchange in writing delivered through the Common Depositary.

(b) Any Global Note that is transferable to the beneficial owners thereof pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be surrendered by the Common Depositary to the Trustee, to be so transferred, in whole or from time to time in part, without charge, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, upon such transfer of each portion of such Global Note, an equal aggregate principal amount of Definitive Notes of authorized denominations.

[FORM OF REVERSE SIDE OF NOTE]

4.625% Senior Notes due 2026

1. Interest

ENERGIZER GAMMA ACQUISITION B.V., a private company with limited liability (besloten vennootschap met beperkte aansprakelijkheid) incorporated under the laws of The Netherlands, and its successors and assigns under the Indenture hereinafter referred to, being herein called the “Issuer”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this 4.625% Senior Note due 2026 (this “Note” and, together with any other 4.625% Senior Notes due 2026, the “Notes”) at the rate per annum shown above. The Issuer will pay interest semiannually on January 15 and July 15 of each year, commencing January 15, 2019. Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from July 6, 2018. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. The Issuer shall pay interest on overdue principal at the rate borne by the Notes plus 1% per annum, and it shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the rate borne by the Notes to the extent lawful. The Issuer may be required to pay Additional Amounts (as defined in the Indenture) on the Notes pursuant to the provisions of the Indenture.

2. Method of Payment

The Issuer will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the January 1 or July 1 next preceding the interest payment date even if Notes are canceled after the record date and on or before the interest payment date. Holders must surrender Notes to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments. The Issuer will pay principal and interest in money of the then member states of the European Monetary Union that have adopted the euro as their currency that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts, subject to the succeeding paragraph. Payments in respect of the Notes represented by a Global Note (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by Euroclear or Clearstream or any successor depositary. The Issuer shall make all payments in respect of a Definitive Note (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) at the office of the Paying Agent, except that, at the option of the Issuer, payment of interest may be made by mailing a check to the registered address of each Holder thereof.

The Notes will be denominated in euro and all payments of principal and interest thereon will be paid in euro. If, on or after the issuance of the Notes, the euro is unavailable to the Issuer due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond its control or if the euro is no longer being used by the then member states of the European Monetary Union that have adopted the euro as their currency or for the settlement of transactions by public institutions of or within the international banking community, then all payments in respect of the Notes will be made in U.S. Dollars until the euro is again available to the Issuer or so used. In such circumstances, the amount payable on any date in euro will be converted into U.S. Dollars by the Issuer at the rate mandated by the U.S. Federal Reserve Board as of the

A-6

close of business on the second Business Day prior to the relevant payment date or, in the event the U.S. Federal Reserve Board has not mandated a rate of conversion, on the basis of the then most recent U.S. Dollar/euro exchange rate available on or prior to the second Business Day prior to the relevant payment date as determined by the Issuer in its sole discretion. Any payment in respect of the Notes so made in U.S. Dollars will not constitute an event of default under the Notes or the Indenture. Neither the Trustee nor the applicable Paying Agent shall have any responsibility for any calculation or conversion in connection with the foregoing.

3. Paying Agent and Registrar

Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (the “Trustee”) will act as Registrar and The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch, as Paying Agent. The Issuer may appoint and change any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar without notice. The Company (as defined in the Indenture) or any of its domestically incorporated Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar. The Issuer will also maintain a Paying Agent in each place of payment.

4. Indenture; Note Guaranty

The Issuer issued the Notes under an Indenture, dated as of July 6, 2018 (the “Indenture”), among the Issuer, the Guarantors party thereto from time to time and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S.C. §§ 77aaa-77bbbb) as in effect on the date of the Indenture (the “TIA”); provided, however, that, in the event the TIA is amended after such date, “TIA” means, to the extent required by any such amendments, the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 as so amended. Terms defined in the Indenture and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Noteholders are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of those terms. This Note is guaranteed, as set forth in the Indenture.

The Indenture imposes certain limitations on the ability of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries to, among other things, make certain Investments and other Restricted Payments, pay dividends and other distributions, incur Debt, enter into consensual restrictions upon the payment of certain dividends and distributions by such Restricted Subsidiaries, issue or sell shares of capital stock of such Restricted Subsidiaries, enter into or permit certain transactions with Affiliates, create or incur Liens and make Asset Sales. The Indenture also imposes limitations on the ability of the Issuer and the Guarantors to consolidate or merge with or into any other Person or sell, transfer, assign, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the Property of the Issuer or the Guarantors.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, in the event of any inconsistency between the terms of the Note and the terms of the Indenture, the terms of the Indenture shall control.

A-7

From and after the Escrow Release Date, the Guarantors shall jointly and severally guarantee the Notes pursuant to the terms of the Indenture.

5. Optional Redemption

(a) Except as set forth below, the Notes may not be redeemed at the option of the Issuer prior to July 15, 2021. On and after July 15, 2021, the Issuer may, at its option, redeem all or any portion of the Notes, at once or over time, upon not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior notice. The Notes may be redeemed at the redemption prices as set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), calculated by the Issuer. The following prices are for Notes redeemed during the 12-month period commencing on July 15 of the years set forth below, and are expressed as percentages of principal amount:

2023		100.771	%

Any such redemption shall be made within 90 days of such Equity Offering upon not less than 30 and no more than 60 days’ prior notice.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer may choose to redeem all or any portion of the Notes, at once or over time, prior to July 15, 2021. If it does so, it may redeem the Notes upon not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior notice. To redeem the Notes, the Issuer must pay a redemption price equal to the sum of:

(i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus

(ii) the Applicable Premium,

plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date).

A-8

The Issuer shall have the right to redeem the Notes at 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any following the consummation of a Change of Control if at least 90% of the Notes outstanding prior to such consummation are purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer with respect to such Change of Control.

“Applicable Premium” means, with respect to any Note on any Redemption Date, the greater of:

(a) 1.0% of the principal amount of such Note; and

(b) the excess, if any, of (i) the present value on such Redemption Date of (A) the redemption price of such Notes on July 15, 2021 (such redemption price being that described in clause (a) of this paragraph 5), plus (B) all required remaining scheduled interest payments due on such Note through July 15, 2021 computed using a discount rate equal to the Bund Rate plus 50 basis points, over (ii) the principal amount of such Note.

“Bund Rate” means, as obtained by the Issuer, as of any Redemption Date, the yield to maturity as of such Redemption Date of direct obligations of the Federal Republic of Germany of comparable maturity (as published in the Financial Times or, if not published in therein, any publicly available similar source of market data) that has become publicly available at least two Business Days prior to the Redemption Date most nearly equal to the period from such Redemption Date to July 15, 2021; provided, however, that if the period from such Redemption Date to July 15, 2021 is less than one year, the weekly average yield on actually traded direct obligations of the Federal Republic of Germany adjusted to a constant maturity of one year will be used, and provided, further, that in no case for any purpose under the Indenture shall the Bund Rate be less than 0.00%.

6. Notice of Optional Redemption

Notice of redemption will be mailed by first-class mail and in the case of Notes held in book-entry form, by electronic transmission at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at his or her registered address. Any notice to Holders of Notes of such a redemption pursuant to clause (c) in paragraph 5 needs to include the appropriate calculation of the redemption price, but does not need to include the redemption price itself. The actual redemption price, calculated as described in such clause (c), must be set forth in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee no later than two Business Days prior to the Redemption Date. Notes in denominations larger than €100,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of €1,000. If money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on all Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the Redemption Date is deposited with the Paying Agent on or before the Redemption Date, on and after such date interest ceases to accrue on such Notes (or such portions thereof) called for redemption.

A-9

Any such redemption or notice of redemption issued pursuant to paragraph 5 may, in the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent.

7. Redemption for Tax Reasons

The Issuer may, at its option, redeem the Notes, in whole but not in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date, at any time, if the Issuer has or, based upon a written opinion of independent tax counsel of nationally recognized standing selected by the Issuer, will become obliged to pay Additional Amounts with respect to the Notes as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws, regulations, treaties, or rulings of the Relevant Tax Jurisdiction or any political subdivision of or in the Relevant Tax Jurisdiction or any taxing authority thereof or therein affecting taxation, or any change in, or amendment to, the application, official interpretation, administration or enforcement of such laws, regulations, treaties or rulings (including a holding by a court of competent jurisdiction in the Relevant Tax Jurisdiction), which change or amendment is enacted, adopted, announced or becomes effective on or after the date of the Indenture.

Notice of any redemption will be given pursuant to the procedures described under the provisions of Section 3.03 of the Indenture; provided, that the notice of redemption shall not be given earlier than 90 days before the earliest date on which the Issuer would be obligated to pay such Additional Amounts on the Notes of the relevant series if a payment was then due.

8. Sinking Fund

Except as set forth in Section 3.08 of the Indenture, the Notes are not subject to any sinking fund.

9. Repurchase of Notes at the Option of Holders upon Change of Control

Upon a Change of Control, any Holder of Notes will have the right, subject to certain conditions specified in the Indenture, to cause the Issuer to repurchase all or any part of the Notes of such Holder at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date) as provided in, and subject to the terms of, the Indenture.

Any notice to Holders of Notes of such a redemption needs to include the appropriate calculation of the redemption price, but does not need to include the redemption price itself. The actual redemption price, calculated as described above, must be set forth in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee no later than two Business Days prior to the redemption date.

A-10

If the optional redemption date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related interest payment date, the accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid to the Person in whose name the Note is registered at the close of business, on such record date. In the case of any partial redemption, the Trustee will select Notes for redemption by lot; provided that if the Notes are in global form, interests in such global notes will be selected for redemption by Euroclear or Clearstream in accordance with its standard procedures therefor, although no Note of €100,000 in original principal amount or less will be redeemed in part. If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption relating to such Note will state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. A new Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Note.

The Issuer will not be required to make a Special Redemption following the Release. Any excess Escrow Property will be returned to the Issuer.

11. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange
