(d) The Issuer shall cause the Trustee on its behalf to mail notice of any redemption at least 15 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each registered holder of the notes to be redeemed.

(e) Once notice of redemption is mailed, the Notes called for redemption shall become due and payable on the redemption date and at the applicable redemption price, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. The Notes shall be redeemed in increments of $1,000 and, if the Issuer redeems any Notes only in part, such that the principal amount that remains outstanding of each Note that the Issuer redeems only in part equals $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

If such redemption or purchase is so subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall describe each such condition and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the redemption date. In addition, the Issuer may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and performance of the Issuer’s obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another person.

(h) The Issuer’s actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(i) On and after the redemption date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes, or any portion of the Notes, called for redemption (unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the redemption price and accrued interest). On or before the redemption date, the Issuer shall deposit with a paying agent (or the Trustee) money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on the Notes to be redeemed on that date. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the Notes to be redeemed shall be selected by lot by DTC or, if the Notes to be redeemed are not represented by a global security, by a method the Trustee deems to be fair and appropriate.

(1) to pay dividends (in cash or otherwise) or make any other distributions in respect of its Capital Stock owned by the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary or pay any Debt or other obligation owed to the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary (it being understood that the priority of any Preferred Stock in receiving dividends, distributions or liquidating distributions prior to dividends, distributions or liquidating distributions being paid on Capital Stock shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make distributions on Capital Stock and any subordination of any obligation to any other obligation shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to pay any Debt or other obligation);

(4) pursuant to an agreement effecting a renewal, refunding, replacement, refinancing or extension of Debt Incurred pursuant to an agreement referred to in clause (1) or (3) of this Section 4.02(b); provided, however, that the provisions contained in such renewal, refunding, replacement, refinancing or extension agreement relating to such encumbrance or restriction are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than the provisions contained in the agreement being renewed, refunded, replaced, refinanced or extended, in each case as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors or an Officer of the Issuer;

(5) in any security agreement (including a Finance Lease Obligation) securing Debt of a Restricted Subsidiary otherwise permitted under this Indenture; provided that any such encumbrance or restriction is released to the extent the underlying Lien is released or the related Debt repaid;

37

(12) any encumbrance or restriction contained in the terms of any Debt or Capital Stock otherwise permitted to be Incurred under this Indenture if the Issuer determines that any such encumbrance or restriction either (i) will not materially affect the Issuer’s ability to make principal or interest payments on the Notes and such restrictions are not materially less favorable to Holders of Notes than is customary in comparable financings or (ii) are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to any Restricted Subsidiary than those in effect on the Issue Date with respect to that Restricted Subsidiary pursuant to agreements in effect on the Issue Date or those contained in this Indenture or the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, in each case as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors or an Officer of the Issuer;

(13) restrictions applicable to Foreign Subsidiaries;

(14) customary provisions limiting the disposition or distribution of assets or property in joint venture agreements, asset sale agreements, sale-leaseback agreements, stock sale agreements and other similar agreements (including agreements entered into in connection with a Restricted Investment), which limitation is applicable only to the assets that are the subject of such agreements; or

(15) if such encumbrance or restriction is the result of applicable laws or any applicable rule, regulation or order.

(4) Debt consisting of the Notes and the Issuer’s 6.625% notes due 2032 (other than any Additional Notes for each such series);

(5) the Subsidiary Guarantees and Guarantees by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Debt of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary permitted to be Incurred under this Indenture; provided that this clause (5) shall not permit Guarantees by a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Subsidiary Guarantor of Debt that is permitted to be Incurred only by the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to this Section 4.03;

(c) For purposes of determining compliance with, and the outstanding principal amount of any particular Debt Incurred pursuant to, and in compliance with, this Section 4.03:

(1) in the event that Debt meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Debt described in Section 4.03(a) and Section 4.03(b), the Issuer, in its sole discretion, may classify such item of Debt on the date of Incurrence (or later classify or reclassify such Debt, in its sole discretion) in any manner permitted by this Section 4.03 and shall only be required to include the amount and type of such Debt in one of such clauses; provided that (x) all Debt outstanding on the Issue Date under the Revolving Credit Facility or Incurred pursuant to the commitments thereunder in effect on the Issue Date shall be deemed Incurred under Section 4.03(b)(1)(i) and may not later be reclassified, (y) all Debt outstanding on the Issue Date under this Indenture shall be deemed Incurred under Section 4.03(b)(2) and may not later be reclassified, and (z) for the avoidance of doubt, Debt Incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Subsidiary Guarantor may not be classified or reclassified under any clause of Section 4.03(a) or 4.03(b) that is available only for Incurrence by the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor;

40

(6) the amount of Debt issued at a price that is less than the principal amount thereof will be equal to the amount of the liability in respect thereof determined in accordance with GAAP.

(d) Accrual of interest, accrual of dividends, the accretion of accreted value, the payment of interest in the form of additional Debt and the payment of dividends in the form of additional shares of Preferred Stock or Redeemable Stock will not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Debt for purposes of this Section 4.03.

(e) For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the Incurrence of Debt, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Debt denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Debt was Incurred, in the case of term Debt, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit Debt; provided that if such Debt is Incurred to refinance other Debt denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar-dominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar-dominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Debt does not exceed the principal amount of such Debt being refinanced. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.03, the maximum amount of Debt that the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries may Incur pursuant to this Section 4.03 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies.

Section 4.04. Limitation on Asset Dispositions.

(a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, make any Asset Disposition unless:

(1) the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration for such Asset Disposition at least equal to the Fair Market Value (measured as of the date of the definitive agreement with respect to such Asset Disposition) for the assets or Capital Stock sold or disposed of; and

41

(2) in the case of an Asset Disposition or series of related Asset Dispositions having a Fair Market Value of at least the greater of (x) $90.0 million and (y) 0.75% of Consolidated Total Assets, at least 75% of the consideration for such Asset Disposition or series of related Asset Dispositions and all other Asset Dispositions consummated since the Issue Date consists of:

(A) cash or Cash Equivalents;

(B) marketable securities to the extent sold for cash within 30 days;

(C) the assumption of Debt or other liabilities (other than contingent liabilities) of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary (other than Debt or liabilities that are subordinated to the Notes or such Restricted Subsidiary’s Subsidiary Guarantee) relating to such assets and release from all liability on the Debt or liabilities assumed;

(D) Replacement Assets;

(E) Designated Non-cash Consideration; or

(F) any combination of the foregoing;

provided that the amount of any consideration received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary that is converted into cash within 180 days of the closing of such Asset Disposition shall be deemed to be cash for purposes of this Section 4.04(a) (to the extent of the cash received). The foregoing clauses (1) or (2) of this Section 4.04(a) shall not apply with respect to any condemnation, event of loss or other involuntary Asset Disposition.

(b) Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Available Proceeds from an Asset Disposition, the Issuer (or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be), may apply such Net Available Proceeds at its option, in any combination of the following:

(1) to repay, repurchase or otherwise retire (i) any Debt of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor that is not Subordinated Debt or (ii) any Debt of any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer that is not a Subsidiary Guarantor, in each case, other than Debt owed to the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer;

(2) to acquire Replacement Assets or make capital expenditures; provided that, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary will be deemed to have complied with its obligations under this Section 4.04(b) if it enters into a binding commitment to acquire Replacement Assets prior to 365 days after the receipt of the applicable Net Available Proceeds and such acquisition of Replacement Assets is consummated prior to 545 days after the date of receipt of the applicable Net Available Proceeds; provided, further, that upon any abandonment or termination of such commitment, the Net Available Proceeds not so applied shall constitute Excess Proceeds and be applied as set forth in Section 4.04(c); or

(3) any combination of the foregoing.

(c) Any Net Available Proceeds that are not applied or invested as provided in Section 4.04(b) will constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $100.0 million, or earlier, at the Issuer’s election, the Issuer will apply the Excess Proceeds to the repayment of the Notes and any other Pari Passu Debt outstanding with similar provisions requiring

42

the Issuer to make an offer to purchase such Debt with the proceeds from any Asset Disposition as follows:

(1) the Issuer will make an offer to purchase from all Holders of the Notes in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture in the maximum principal amount (expressed in amounts of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) of Notes that may be purchased out of an amount (the “Note Amount”) equal to the product of such Excess Proceeds multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the outstanding principal amount of the Notes, and the denominator of which is the sum of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes and such Pari Passu Debt (subject to proration in the event such amount is less than the aggregate Offered Price for all Notes tendered); and

(2) to the extent required by such Pari Passu Debt, the Issuer will make an offer to purchase or otherwise repurchase or redeem Pari Passu Debt (a “Pari Passu Offer”) in an amount (the “Pari Passu Debt Amount”) equal to the excess of the Excess Proceeds over the Note Amount. However, in no event will the Issuer be required to make a Pari Passu Offer in a Pari Passu Debt Amount exceeding the principal amount of such Pari Passu Debt plus the amount of any premium required to be paid to repurchase such Pari Passu Debt.

(d) The offer price for the Notes will be payable in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date such offer to purchase is consummated (the “Offered Price”), in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture. To the extent that the aggregate Offered Price of the Notes tendered pursuant to the offer to purchase is less than the Note Amount relating to the tendered Notes or the aggregate amount of Pari Passu Debt that is purchased in a Pari Passu Offer is less than the Pari Passu Debt Amount, the Issuer may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for general corporate purposes. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Debt surrendered by holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes and Pari Passu Debt to be purchased on a pro rata basis; provided that, in the case of Global Notes, beneficial interests in such Notes shall be repurchased on a pro rata basis based on amounts tendered only if such proration is consistent with the procedures of the applicable clearing system; otherwise, such beneficial interests shall be selected for repurchase in accordance with such procedures. Upon the completion of the purchase of all the Notes tendered pursuant to an offer to purchase and the completion of a Pari Passu Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds, if any, shall be reset at zero.

(e) If the Issuer becomes obligated to make an offer to purchase pursuant to this Section 4.04, the Notes (in amounts of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof), and the Pari Passu Debt shall be purchased by the Issuer, at the option of the Holders thereof, in whole or in part, on a date that is not earlier than 30 days and not later than 60 days from the date the notice of the offer to purchase is given to Holders, or such later date as may be necessary for the Issuer to comply with the requirements under the Exchange Act.

(f) The Issuer shall comply with the applicable tender offer rules, including Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other applicable securities laws or regulations in connection with an offer to purchase. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 4.04, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.04 by virtue of such compliance.

43

Section 4.05. Transactions with Affiliates.

(a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, enter into any transaction or series of related transactions having a value in excess of $25.0 million with or for the benefit of an Affiliate of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary, including any Investment, either directly or indirectly, unless such transaction is on terms not materially less favorable to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary (taken as a whole) than those that could reasonably be obtained in a comparable arm’s-length transaction with an entity that is not an Affiliate or is otherwise fair to the Issuer from a financial point of view. For any transaction or series of related transactions involving aggregate value in excess of $50.0 million, such transaction or series of related transactions is approved by either (x) a majority of the Disinterested Directors of the Board of Directors of the Issuer, if any, or in the event there is only one Disinterested Director, by such Disinterested Director, or (y) the audit committee of the Board of Directors of the Issuer (with any Director on such committee that is not a Disinterested Director recusing himself or herself). For the avoidance of doubt, any intercompany transaction between and among the Issuer and/or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be deemed a transaction with an Affiliate.

(b) The preceding requirements shall not apply to:

(1) any transaction pursuant to agreements in effect on the Issue Date, as these agreements may be amended, modified, supplemented, extended or renewed from time to time, so long as any such amendment, modification, supplement, extension or renewal is not more disadvantageous to the Holders in any material respect in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors or senior management of the Issuer, when taken as a whole, than the terms of the agreements in effect on the Issue Date;

(2) any employment agreement or employee benefit arrangements with any officer or director, including under any stock option or stock incentive plans, entered into by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary or approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors;

(3) (x) transactions between or among the Issuer and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries and (y) any Guarantees issued by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary for the benefit of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, in accordance with Section 4.03;

(4) any transaction with any Person (x) that is not an Affiliate of the Issuer immediately before the consummation of such transaction that becomes an Affiliate of the Issuer as a result of such transaction or (y) that is an Affiliate of the Issuer solely because the Issuer, directly or indirectly, owns Capital Stock in, or controls, such Person;

(10) the grant, issuance or sale of Capital Stock (other than Redeemable Stock) to Affiliates of the Issuer and the granting of registration rights and other customary rights in connection therewith;

Section 4.06. Limitation on Liens.

(a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien (other than a Permitted Lien) on any property or asset (including any intercompany notes) of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary now owned or hereafter acquired, or assign or convey a right to receive any income or profits from such Liens, to secure (i) any Debt of the Issuer unless prior to, or contemporaneously therewith, the Notes are equally and ratably secured for so long as such other Debt is so secured, or (ii) any Debt of any Subsidiary Guarantor, unless prior to, or contemporaneously therewith, the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor is equally and ratably secured for so long as such other Debt is so secured; provided, however, that if such Debt is expressly subordinated to the Notes or a Subsidiary Guarantee, the Lien securing such Debt will be subordinated and junior to the Lien securing the Notes or such Subsidiary Guarantee, as the case may be, with the same relative priority as such Debt has with respect to the Notes or such Subsidiary Guarantee.

(b) Following the Termination Date, the Issuer may elect by written notice to the Trustee to be subject to Section 1007 of the Base Indenture in lieu of this Section 4.06 and the related definition of “Permitted Liens.”

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Lien securing the Notes or any Subsidiary Guarantee granted pursuant to this Section 4.06 will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release by the holders of Debt in accordance with Section 4.09 of their Lien on the property or assets of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (including any deemed release upon payment in full of all obligations under such Debt), at such time as the holders of all such Debt also release their Lien on the property or assets of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, or upon any sale, exchange or transfer to any Person that is not an Affiliate of the Issuer of the property or assets secured by such Lien, or of all of the Capital Stock held by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary in, or all or substantially all the assets of, any Restricted Subsidiary creating such Lien.

(d) With respect to any Lien securing Debt that was permitted to secure such Debt at the time of the Incurrence of such Debt, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Debt. The “Increased Amount” of any Debt means any increase in the amount of such Debt in connection with any accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Debt with the same terms, accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference, any fees, underwriting discounts, accrued and unpaid interest, premiums and other costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith and increases in the amount of Debt outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies or increases in the value of property securing Debt.

(e) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.06, (A) a Lien need not be incurred solely by reference to one category of Permitted Liens described in the definition thereof but is permitted to be incurred in part under any combination thereof and of any other available exemption and (B) in the event that a Lien (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of one or more of the categories of Permitted Liens, the Issuer will, in its sole discretion, be entitled to divide, classify or reclassify, in whole or in part, any such Lien (or any portion thereof) among one or more of such categories or clauses in any manner; provided that any Lien securing Debt outstanding on the Issue Date under the Revolving Credit Facility or Incurred pursuant to the commitments thereunder in effect on the Issue Date shall be deemed incurred under clause (1) of the definition of “Permitted Liens” and may not later be reclassified.

46

Section 4.07. Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control.

(a) If a change of control triggering event occurs with respect to the Notes, unless the Issuer has exercised its option to redeem such Notes by mailing notice of such redemption to the registered holders of the Notes being redeemed, the Issuer will be required to make an offer (a “change of control offer”) to each Holder of the Notes with respect to which such change of control triggering event has occurred to repurchase all of such holder’s Notes or any part of such holder’s Notes such that the principal amount that remains outstanding of each Note not repurchased in full equals $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof on the terms set forth in such Notes. In a change of control offer, the Issuer shall be required to offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount of any Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to the date of repurchase (a “change of control payment”).

(b) Within 30 days following any change of control triggering event or, at the Issuer’s option, prior to any change of control, but after public announcement of the transaction that constitutes or may constitute the change of control, a notice will be mailed to holders of the Notes, as the case may be, describing the transaction that constitutes or may constitute the change of control triggering event and offering to repurchase such Notes on the date specified in the applicable notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed or delivered electronically (a “change of control payment date”). The notice will, if mailed or delivered electronically prior to the date of consummation of the change of control, state that the change of control offer is conditioned on the change of control triggering event occurring on or prior to the applicable change of control payment date.

(c) Upon the change of control payment date, the Issuer shall, to the extent lawful:

(1) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the change of control offer;

(2) deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the change of control payment in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and

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

(d) The Issuer shall not be required to make a change of control offer upon the occurrence of a change of control triggering event if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by the Issuer and the third party repurchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer. In addition, the Issuer shall not repurchase any Notes if there has occurred and is continuing on the change of control payment date an event of default under this Indenture, other than a default in the payment of the change of control payment upon a change of control triggering event.

(e) The Issuer shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a change of control triggering event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the change of control offer provisions of the Notes, the Issuer shall comply with those securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the change of control offer provisions of the Notes by virtue of any such conflict.

47

Section 4.08. Future Guarantees.

(a) On and after the Issue Date, if any Domestic Subsidiary that is not already a Subsidiary Guarantor guarantees any Debt of the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor under, or becomes an obligor under, (i) any credit facility, debt facility, indenture, note purchase agreement or commercial paper facility, in each case, with banks or other financial institutions or lenders or investors, providing for revolving credit loans, term loans, private placement bonds or other debt securities of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor consisting of debt for money borrowed in the form of loans or other obligations from banks, institutional lenders or other financial institutions (other than (x) Debt under the Revolving Credit Facility Incurred pursuant to Section 4.03(b)(1)(i), (y) any Permitted Securitization Incurred pursuant to Section 4.03(b)(10) or (z) any Finance Lease Obligation or purchase money obligation Incurred pursuant to Section 4.03(b)(6)) or (ii) any Capital Markets Debt issued by the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii), in an aggregate principal amount or commitment amount, as the case may be, in excess of $50.0 million, then such Domestic Subsidiary will become a Subsidiary Guarantor and execute a supplemental indenture to this Indenture, the form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B, within 60 days of the date on which it became a guarantor or borrower with respect to such other Debt; provided that if such other Debt is by its express terms subordinated in right of payment to the Notes, any such Guarantee by such Domestic Subsidiary with respect to such other Debt shall be subordinated in right of payment to such Domestic Subsidiary’s Guarantee of the Notes.

(b) The Subsidiary Guarantee of any Subsidiary Guarantor will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged:

(1) in connection with any sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of that Subsidiary Guarantor (including by way of merger or consolidation) to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer, if the sale or other disposition does not violate Section 4.04;

(2) in connection with any sale, transfer or other disposition of Capital Stock of that Subsidiary Guarantor (including by way of merger or consolidation) to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer, if after such sale, transfer or disposition, the Subsidiary Guarantor would cease to be a Restricted Subsidiary and the sale or other disposition does not violate Section 4.04;

(3) upon the legal defeasance, covenant defeasance or satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture in compliance with Article Fourteen of the Base Indenture;

(4) if the Issuer designates such Subsidiary Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture; or

(5) at such time as the Subsidiary Guarantor is released from its obligations under all Guarantees or other Debt the Incurrence of which required, or would require, such Subsidiary Guarantor to Guarantee the Notes pursuant to Section 4.08(a), and no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

(c) None of the Issuer, the Trustee nor any Subsidiary Guarantor will be required to make a notation on the Notes to reflect any such release and discharge. By their acquisition of the Notes, the Holders acknowledge that any such release of a Subsidiary Guarantee in accordance with the terms of this Indenture will be deemed not to impair their repayment rights under the Notes.

Section 4.09. Termination of Certain Covenants.

(a) If on any date following the Issue Date, the Notes (x) have an investment grade rating from at least two of the rating agencies, and (y) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then, beginning on that day (the “Termination Date”) and continuing at all times thereafter regardless of any subsequent changes in the rating of the Notes, the following sections of this First Supplemental Indenture shall be terminated, and the Issuer shall be released from its obligations thereunder:

(1) Section 4.01;

48

(2) Section 4.02;

(3) Section 4.03;

(4) Section 4.04;

(5) Section 4.05;

(6) Section 4.08 (but only with respect to any Person that is required to become a Subsidiary Guarantor after the Termination Date); and

(7) Section 4.10;

provided that, following the Termination Date, the Issuer may elect by written notice to the Trustee to be subject to the covenants limiting liens and mergers, consolidations and transfers of all or substantially all assets set forth in Section 1007 and Article Eight, respectively, of the Base Indenture instead of Section 4.06 and Section 5.01, respectively, of this First Supplemental Indenture.

(b) Following the Termination Date, the Board of Directors may not designate any of the Issuer’s Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries unless such designation would have complied with Section 4.01 as if Section 4.01 were in effect during such period.

(c) Promptly following the release from the obligations under the covenants pursuant to this Section 4.09, the Issuer will provide an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee regarding such occurrence. The Trustee shall have no obligation to independently determine, monitor or verify if a release has occurred under or notify the Holders of any such release.

Section 4.10. Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

(a) The Issuer, by delivery of an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee, may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an “Unrestricted Subsidiary,” in which event such Subsidiary and each other Person that is then or thereafter becomes a Subsidiary of such Subsidiary will be deemed to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary, if:

(1) neither the Issuer nor any of its other Subsidiaries (other than another Unrestricted Subsidiary) provides credit support for, or a Guarantee of, any Debt of such Subsidiary or any Subsidiary of such Subsidiary (including any undertaking, agreement or instrument evidencing such Debt) or is directly or indirectly liable for any Debt of such Subsidiary or any Subsidiary of such Subsidiary, and no default with respect to any Debt of such Subsidiary or any Subsidiary of such Subsidiary (including any right which the holders thereof may have to take enforcement action against such Subsidiary) would permit (upon notice, lapse of time or both) any holder of any other Debt of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries (other than another Unrestricted Subsidiary) to declare a default on such other Debt or cause the payment thereof to be accelerated or payable prior to its final scheduled maturity, except in either case to the extent that the amount of any such Debt constitutes a Restricted Payment or Permitted Investment that is made in compliance with Section 4.01;

49

(2) such Subsidiary does not own any Capital Stock of, or does not own or hold any Lien on any property of, any other Restricted Subsidiary which is not a Subsidiary of the Subsidiary to be so designated or otherwise an Unrestricted Subsidiary;

(3) at the time of designation, the Issuer could make a Restricted Payment or Permitted Investment in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of its interest in such Subsidiary pursuant to Section 4.01;

(4) such Subsidiary is a Person with respect to which neither the Issuer nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has any direct or indirect obligation to (i) subscribe for additional Capital Stock of such Subsidiary or (ii) maintain or preserve such Subsidiary’s financial condition or to cause such Subsidiary to achieve any specified levels of operating results, except in either case to the extent that the amount of any such obligation constitutes a Restricted Payment or Permitted Investment that is made in compliance with Section 4.01; and

(5) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of, or immediately after giving effect to, such designation.

(b) The designation of any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall constitute an Investment by the Issuer in such Subsidiary on the date of designation in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the Issuer’s Investment therein.

(c) The designation of any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary shall constitute the Incurrence at the time of designation of any Investment, Debt or Liens of such Subsidiary existing at such time.

(d) The Trustee shall have no duty whatsoever to monitor or inquire whether a Subsidiary is a Restricted Subsidiary or an Unrestricted Subsidiary and may be entitled to conclusively rely on the Officer’s Certificates delivered to it by the Issuer in accordance with this Section 4.10.

W I T N E S S E T H

WHEREAS, the Company has heretofore executed and delivered the Indenture, dated as of November 19, 2014 (the “Base Indenture”), between the Company and the Trustee, as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of November 13, 2024, between the Company and the Trustee (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), providing for the issuance of an unlimited aggregate principal amount of 6.375% Senior Notes due 2030 (the “Notes”);

WHEREAS, the Indenture provides that under certain circumstances the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture pursuant to which the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall unconditionally Guarantee all of the Company’s Obligations under the Notes and the Indenture on the terms and conditions set forth herein and under the Indenture; and

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 901 of the Base Indenture, as amended by Section 8.01(b)(12) of the First Supplemental Indenture, the Trustee is authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties mutually covenant and agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders as follows:

1. Capitalized Terms. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

2. Subsidiary Guarantees. The Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby agrees to be a Subsidiary Guarantor under the Indenture and to be bound by the terms of the Indenture applicable to any Subsidiary Guarantor.

(a) Subject to this Supplemental Indenture, the Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, on a senior unsecured basis, to each Holder and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns that: (1) the principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Company to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or under the Notes shall be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (2) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same shall be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Failing payment by the Company when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. The Guaranteeing Subsidiary agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

B-1

(b) The Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the absence of any action by any Holder or the Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Company under the Indenture, any waiver or consent by any Holder with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. The Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that this Subsidiary Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and the Indenture, or pursuant to Section 4.08 of the First Supplemental Indenture.

(c) The Guaranteeing Subsidiary also agrees, jointly and severally, to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) Incurred by the Trustee or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section 2.

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

(e) The Guaranteeing Subsidiary agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. The Guaranteeing Subsidiary further agrees that, as between the Guaranteeing Subsidiary, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (1) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in the Indenture for the purposes of this Subsidiary Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (2) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in the Indenture, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guaranteeing Subsidiary for the purpose of this Subsidiary Guarantee. The Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guaranteeing Subsidiary so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Guaranteeing Subsidiary.

(f) The Subsidiary Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Company for liquidation or reorganization, should the Company become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of the Company’s assets, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Notes are, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee on the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantees, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent transfer” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Notes shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

B-2

(g) In case any provision of any Subsidiary Guarantee shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

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

3. Limitation on Subsidiary Guarantor Liability. The Guaranteeing Subsidiary, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Guaranteeing Subsidiary not constitute a fraudulent conveyance or a fraudulent transfer for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Subsidiary Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guaranteeing Subsidiary that are relevant under such laws and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guaranteeing Subsidiary in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Supplemental Indenture, result in the obligations of such Guaranteeing Subsidiary under its Subsidiary Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under applicable law. The Guaranteeing Subsidiary that makes a payment under its Subsidiary Guarantee will be entitled upon payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations under the Indenture to a contribution from each other Guarantor in an amount equal to such other Guaranteeing Subsidiary’s pro rata portion of such payment based on the respective net assets of all the Guaranteeing Subsidiaries at the time of such payment, determined in accordance with GAAP.

(b) The Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in this Supplemental Indenture shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of any notation of such Subsidiary Guarantee on the Notes.

(c) If an Officer whose signature is on this Supplemental Indenture no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates a Note issued under the Indenture, the Subsidiary Guarantees shall be valid nevertheless.

5. Benefits Acknowledged. The Guaranteeing Subsidiary acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Indenture and that the guarantee and waivers made by it pursuant to its Subsidiary Guarantee are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.
