Any PIK Notes issued in certificated form will be dated as of the applicable Interest Payment Date and will bear interest from and after such date. All PIK Notes issued pursuant to a PIK Payment will be governed by, and subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of, this Indenture and will have the same rights and benefits as the Initial Notes. Any certificated PIK Note will be issued with the description “PIK” on the face of such PIK Note.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.03(c), the payment of accrued interest shall be made solely in cash (“Cash Interest”), (A) in connection with any redemption or repurchase of Notes as described under Section 13.02, Section 15.02 and Section 15.03, (1) with respect to all Notes, if the related Change of Control Redemption Date, Fundamental Change Repurchase Date or Change of Control Repurchase Date, as applicable, is after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the Scheduled Trading Day immediately following the date on which the corresponding interest payment is made or (2) solely with respect to the Notes to be redeemed or repurchased, if the related Change of Control Redemption Date, Fundamental Change Repurchase Date or Change of Control Repurchase Date, as applicable, is on any other date, (B) with respect to all Notes, if any Notes are surrendered for conversion after the close of business on a Regular Record Date for the payment of interest and on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, and (C) on the final Interest Payment Date.

(iv) The then-applicable Interest Rate shall be subject to adjustment in connection with any Event of Default. If an Event of Default occurs, the then-applicable Interest Rate on the Notes will increase by 3.0% per annum (the “Default Rate”). The Default Rate shall take effect from, and including, the next succeeding Interest Payment Date following the date on which an Event of Default occurs, provided that the Default

37

Rate shall not take effect if all Events of Default have been cured prior to such next succeeding Interest Payment Date. If all continuing Events of Default are cured after the Default Rate has taken effect, the Default Rate shall cease to be in effect from, and including, the next succeeding Interest Payment Date as of which no Event of Default is continuing. As such, interest will not begin to accrue at such increased or decreased Interest Rate until the next Interest Payment Date following the date on which an Event of Default or the curing of all continuing Events of Default occurs. In no event shall the Interest Rate on the Notes exceed 3.0% above the then-applicable Interest Rate on the Notes as a result of the application of the Default Rate. In this section, the term “then-applicable Interest Rate” on the Notes means the Interest Rate determined in accordance with the Indenture without giving effect to any adjustment as described in this clause (iv). The Trustee shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder to determine the amount of interest payable at the Default Rate, or with respect to the nature, extent, or calculation of the amount of interest payable at the Default Rate owed, or with respect to the method employed in such calculation of any amounts at the Default Rate. The Company shall notify the Holders and the Trustee on any Interest Payment Date on which interest will increase or decrease for the next succeeding Interest Period in accordance with this clause (iv). Any election by the Company pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) shall apply with respect to the Interest Rate, as increased by the Default Rate, if applicable.

(d) All indebtedness and obligations of the Company and the Guarantors to the Holders, presently existing or arising in the future pursuant to this Indenture, the Notes or any Second Tranche Notes, is subordinated in right of payment to all Senior Indebtedness to the extent set forth in the Loan Subordination Agreement.

(e) Any Defaulted Amounts shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant payment date but shall accrue interest per annum at the applicable interest rate then borne by the Notes, subject to the enforceability thereof under applicable law, from, and including, such relevant payment date, and such Defaulted Amounts together with such interest thereon shall be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (i) or (ii) below:

(i) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Amounts to the Persons in whose names the Notes are registered at the close of business on a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Amounts, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of the Defaulted Amounts proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment (which shall be not less than 25 calendar days after the delivery to the Trustee of such notice, unless the Trustee shall consent to an earlier date), and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Amounts or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit on or prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Amounts as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Company shall fix a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Amounts which shall be not more than 15 calendar days and not less than 10 calendar days prior to the date of the

38

proposed payment, and not less than 10 calendar days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of such special record date and in such notice, instruct the Trustee, in the name and at the expense of the Company, to deliver notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Amounts and the special record date therefor to each Holder not less than 10 calendar days prior to such special record date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Amounts and the special record date therefor having been so delivered, such Defaulted Amounts shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Notes are registered at the close of business on such special record date and shall no longer be due and payable in respect of the Notes.

(ii) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Amounts in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Notes may be listed or designated for issuance, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange or automated quotation system, if, after written notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

(iii) The Trustee shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder to determine the Defaulted Amounts, or with respect to the nature, extent, or calculation of the amount of the Defaulted Amounts owed, or with respect to the method employed in such calculation of the Defaulted Amounts.

(f)

(i) Each party hereby agrees to the following U.S. federal income tax treatment and covenants that it will not take a different position thereon unless required by a governmental authority pursuant to a “determination” as defined in section 1313 of the Code, (provided, however, that, in the case of a determination as defined in section 1313(a)(2), the Company may enter into a an agreement with the applicable governmental authority as described in section 1313(a)(2) only with the prior written consent of the majority in interest of Holders (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed)): interest payments on the Notes to a Holder, or any amount received upon the redemption, conversion or other reacquisition by the Company of a Note, are not subject to withholding tax by the Company and such interest payments or amounts will be made without reduction for any such tax, provided that (a) such applicable Holder timely provides a valid IRS Form W-8 or IRS Form W-9 (or successor forms thereto) and such other information as is required to certify such person’s compliance with sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code; (b) such beneficial owner of such Note is not (i) a 10% shareholder of the Company as described in sections 871(h)(3) and 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, (ii) a controlled foreign corporation to which the Company is related as described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, or (iii) a bank extending credit to the Company in the ordinary course of its trade or business as described in section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code (and upon request provides certification to such effect); and (c) no change of U.S. federal income tax law has occurred subsequent to the issuance of the Notes that results in the application of such withholding tax. The Company agrees to provide upon reasonable request by a Holder information existing and readily available to the Company that is reasonably necessary for the Holder to determine whether it is a 10% shareholder of the Company as described in sections 871(h)(3) and 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code.

39

(ii) Each party hereby agrees that each Note shall be treated as debt for U.S. federal, state and local income tax purposes and, each party covenants that it will not take a different position unless required by a governmental authority pursuant to a “determination” as defined in section 1313 of the Code; provided, however, that, in the case of a determination as defined in section 1313(a)(2), the Company may enter into a an agreement with the applicable governmental authority as described in section 1313(a)(2) only with the prior written consent of the majority in interest of Holders (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Each Holder and beneficial owner of a Note shall be deemed, by the Holder’s acquisition of such Note (or an interest therein), to have agreed to treat, and shall treat, the Notes as debt for all United States federal income tax purposes and shall take no action inconsistent with such treatment unless required by a governmental authority pursuant to a “determination” as defined in section 1313 of the Code; provided, however, that, in the case of a determination as defined in section 1313(a)(2), the Holder may enter into a an agreement with the applicable governmental authority as described in section 1313(a)(2) only with the prior written consent of the Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(iii) The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide any certificate and/or information necessary for an exemption from withholding tax under section 1445 of the Code in connection with any conversion, redemption or other exchange of a Note with the Company. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide notice to each Holder in the event that the Company itself could be treated as a U.S. real property holding corporation as defined in Section 897(c)(2) of the Code, or the Company owns such corporation. On a quarterly basis (or upon any reasonable request by a Holder), the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to inform the Trustee of the approximate percentage of U.S. real property interests (as defined in section 897(c)(1) of the Code) held directly and indirectly, by the Company, or, as applicable, its owner that is an entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal tax purposes.

Section 2.04 Execution, Authentication and Delivery of Notes. The Notes shall be signed in the name and on behalf of the Company by the manual or facsimile signature of any Officer.

At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Notes executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Notes, and the Trustee in accordance with such Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Notes. The applicable Company Order shall state whether such Notes are Initial Notes, PIK Notes, Additional Notes or Second Tranche Notes.

40

Only such Notes as shall bear thereon a certificate of authentication substantially in the form set forth on the Form of Note attached as Exhibit A hereto, executed manually by an authorized signatory of the Trustee (or an authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee as provided by Section 18.10), shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose. Such certificate by the Trustee (or such an authenticating agent) upon any Note executed by the Company shall be conclusive evidence that the Note so authenticated has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and that the Holder is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

In case any Officer of the Company who shall have signed any of the Notes shall cease to be such Officer before the Notes so signed shall have been authenticated and delivered by the Trustee, or disposed of by the Company, such Notes nevertheless may be authenticated and delivered or disposed of as though the person who signed such Notes had not ceased to be such Officer of the Company; and any Note may be signed on behalf of the Company by such persons as, at the actual date of the execution of such Note, shall be the Officers of the Company, although at the date of the execution of this Indenture any such person was not such an Officer.

Section 2.05 Exchange and Registration of Transfer of Notes; Restrictions on Transfer; Depositary.

(a) The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office a register (the register maintained in such office or in any other office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 4.02, the “Note Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Notes and of transfers of Notes. Such register shall be in written form or in any form capable of being converted into written form within a reasonable period of time. The Trustee is hereby initially appointed the “Note Registrar” for the purpose of registering Notes and transfers of Notes as herein provided. The Company may appoint one or more co-Note Registrars in accordance with Section 4.02.

Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note to the Note Registrar or any co-Note Registrar, and satisfaction of the requirements for such transfer set forth in this Section 2.05, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of any items required to be delivered hereunder, shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and bearing such restrictive legends as may be required by this Indenture.

Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at any such office or agency maintained by the Company pursuant to Section 4.02. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Notes that the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive, bearing registration numbers not contemporaneously outstanding.

All Notes presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange, redemption, repurchase or conversion shall (if so required by the Company, the Trustee, the Note Registrar or any co-Note Registrar) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee and duly executed, by the Holder thereof or its attorney-in-fact duly authorized in writing.

41

No service charge shall be imposed on the Holder by the Company, the Trustee, the Note Registrar, any co-Note Registrar or the Paying Agent for any exchange or registration of transfer of Notes, but the Company may require a Holder to pay a sum sufficient to cover any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax required in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder of new Notes issued upon such exchange or registration of transfer being different from the name of the Holder of the old Notes surrendered for exchange or registration of transfer.

None of the Company, the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, the Note Registrar or any co-Note Registrar shall be required to exchange or register a transfer of (i) any Notes surrendered for conversion or, if a portion of any Note is surrendered for conversion, such portion thereof surrendered for conversion, (ii) any Notes, or a portion of any Note, surrendered for repurchase (and not validly withdrawn) in accordance with Article 15 or (iii) any Notes selected for redemption in accordance with Article 13, except the unredeemed portion thereof.

All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes in accordance with this Indenture shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as the Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

(b) So long as Notes are eligible for book-entry settlement with the Depositary subject to the seventh paragraph from the end of Section 2.05(c) all Notes shall be represented by one or more registered Notes in global form (each, a “Global Note”) registered in the name of the Depositary or the nominee of the Depositary. The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in a Global Note that does not involve the issuance of a Physical Note shall be effected through the Depositary in accordance with this Indenture (including the restrictions on transfer set forth herein) and the procedures of the Depositary therefor.

(c) Every Note that bears or is required under this Section 2.05(c) to bear the legend set forth in this Section 2.05(c) (together with any Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Notes that is required to bear the legend set forth in Section 2.05(d), collectively, the “Restricted Securities”) shall be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 2.05(c) (including those contained in the legend set forth below), unless such restrictions on transfer shall be eliminated or otherwise waived by written consent of the Company, and the Holder of each such Restricted Security, by such Holder’s acceptance thereof, agrees to be bound by all such restrictions on transfer. As used in this Section 2.05(c) and Section 2.05(d), the term “transfer” encompasses any sale, pledge, transfer or other disposition whatsoever of any Restricted Security.

Until the date (the “Resale Restriction Termination Date”) that is the later of (1) the date that is one year after the last date of original issuance of the Notes, (2) the expiration of any applicable holding period with respect to the Notes pursuant to Rule 144 or any successor provision thereto, and (3) the date on which the Notes constitute “Covered Securities” under clause (1), (2) or (3) of the definition of “Covered Securities” under Section 18 of the Securities

42

Act, any certificate evidencing such Note (and all securities issued in exchange therefor or substitution thereof, other than Common Stock, if any, issued upon conversion thereof, which shall bear the legend set forth in Section 2.05(d), if applicable) shall bear a legend in substantially the following form (unless such Notes have been (i) transferred (x) pursuant to a registration statement that has become or been declared effective under the Securities Act and that continues to be effective at the time of such transfer and (y) subsequent transfers are not subject to restrictions under applicable state securities laws, or (ii) transferred (x) pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 or any similar provision then in force under the Securities Act and (y) subsequent transfers are not subject to restrictions under applicable state securities laws, or (iii) unless otherwise agreed by the Company in writing, with notice thereof to the Trustee; provided, that if the proposed transfer will be made pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Holder must, prior to such transfer, furnish to the Company such certifications, Opinions of Counsel and other information as the Company may reasonably require and on forms reasonably approved by the Company, including a customary release from the transferor and a non-disclosure agreement, to determine that such transfer is being made in accordance with such clause):

THE SALE OF THIS NOTE HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, PRIOR TO THE RESALE RESTRICTION TERMINATION DATE (AS DEFINED BELOW), THIS NOTE MAY NOT BE OFFERED, PLEDGED, RESOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, EXCEPT:

(D) UNDER ANY OTHER AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT (INCLUDING, IF AVAILABLE, THE EXEMPTION PROVIDED BY RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT).

IN EACH CASE, IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

THE “RESALE RESTRICTION TERMINATION DATE” MEANS THE LATER OF (1) THE DATE THAT IS ONE YEAR AFTER THE LAST DATE OF ORIGINAL ISSUANCE OF THE NOTES, (2) THE EXPIRATION OF ANY APPLICABLE HOLDING PERIOD WITH RESPECT TO THE NOTES PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR ANY SUCCESSOR PROVISION THERETO, AND (3) THE DATE ON WHICH THE NOTES CONSTITUTE “COVERED SECURITIES” UNDER CLAUSE (1), (2) OR (3) OF THE DEFINITION OF “COVERED SECURITIES” UNDER SECTION 18 OF THE SECURITIES ACT.

43

WITH RESPECT TO ANY TRANSFER PURSUANT TO THE FOREGOING CLAUSE (C) AND CLAUSE (D), THE COMPANY AND THE NOTE REGISTRAR SHALL BE ENTITLED TO REQUIRE THE DELIVERY OF SUCH CERTIFICATIONS, OPINIONS OF COUNSEL OR OTHER INFORMATION AS THEY MAY REASONABLY REQUIRE AND ON FORMS REASONABLY APPROVED BY THE COMPANY, INCLUDING A CUSTOMARY RELEASE FROM THE TRANSFEROR AND A NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT, AND THE NOTE REGISTRAR AND MAY RELY UPON FOR THE COMPANY TO CONFIRM THAT SUCH TRANSFER IS BEING MADE PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

THIS NOTE AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS EVIDENCED HEREBY ARE SUBORDINATE IN THE MANNER AND TO THE EXTENT SET FORTH IN THAT CERTAIN SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT DATED AS OF NOVEMBER 27, 2020 AS BETWEEN THE COMPANY, U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, IN ITS CAPACITY AS COLLATERAL AGENT, AND WESTERN ALLIANCE BANK, AS MAY BE AMENDED OR RESTATED FROM TIME TO TIME.

No transfer of any Note prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date will be registered by the Note Registrar unless the applicable box on the Form of Assignment and Transfer has been checked.

Any Note (or security issued in exchange or substitution therefor) (i) as to which such restrictions on transfer shall have expired in accordance with their terms such that they may be transferred (x) without volume or manner of sale limits under Rule 144 and (y) subsequent transfers are not subject to restrictions under applicable state securities laws, (ii) that has been transferred (x) pursuant to, and in accordance with, a registration statement that has become effective or been declared effective under the Securities Act and that continues to be effective at the time of such transfer and (y) as to which subsequent transfers are not subject to restrictions under applicable state securities laws, or (iii) that has been sold (x) pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 or any similar provision then in force under the Securities Act, and such that such Note is no longer a “restricted security” as defined under Rule 144 and (y) as to which subsequent transfers are not subject to restrictions under applicable state securities laws, may, upon surrender of such Note for exchange to the Note Registrar in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.05, be exchanged for a new Note or Notes, of like tenor and aggregate principal amount, which shall not bear the restrictive legend required by this Section 2.05(c) and shall not be assigned a restricted CUSIP number. The Company shall be entitled to instruct the Custodian in writing to so surrender any Global Note as to which any of the conditions set forth in clause (i) through (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence have been satisfied, and, upon such instruction, the Custodian shall so surrender such Global Note for exchange; and any new Global Note so exchanged therefor shall not bear the restrictive legend

44

specified in this Section 2.05(c) and shall not be assigned a restricted CUSIP number. If the Holder of a Physical Note that bears such a restrictive legend and is no longer required to bear such restrictive legend under this Section 2.05(c) surrenders such Note to the Note Registrar for exchange, the Note Registrar shall promptly so notify the Company in writing, and the Company shall promptly execute a Physical Note in the name of such Holder that does not bear such a restrictive legend, of like tenor and aggregate principal amount, and shall deliver such executed Physical Note to the Trustee, along with a Company Order and an Opinion of Counsel and an Officer’s Certificate, for authentication and delivery of such Physical Note, and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate such Physical Note and deliver it to such Holder or otherwise in accordance with such Holder’s instructions, and the Trustee shall promptly thereafter cancel the Physical Note bearing such restrictive legend.

The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee upon the occurrence of the Resale Restriction Termination Date and promptly after a registration statement, if any, with respect to the Notes or any Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Notes has been declared effective under the Securities Act. The Company shall complete any exchange process for the removal of a restrictive legend required by this Section 2.05(c) in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, the applicable procedures of the Depositary (in the case of a Global Note) and applicable securities laws.

Following the Resale Restriction Termination Date, the Notes shall bear a legend in substantially the following form:

THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION OF THIS NOTE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND ACCORDINGLY, SUCH SHARES MAY BE “RESTRICTED SECURITIES” THAT MAY NOT BE OFFERED, PLEDGED, RESOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT TO THE ISSUER OF SUCH SECURITIES (OR ANY SUBSIDIARY THEREOF), PURSUANT TO, AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH, A REGISTRATION STATEMENT THAT IS EFFECTIVE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AT THE TIME OF SUCH TRANSFER, OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT.

THIS NOTE AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS EVIDENCED HEREBY ARE SUBORDINATE IN THE MANNER AND TO THE EXTENT SET FORTH IN THAT CERTAIN SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT DATED AS OF NOVEMBER 27, 2020 AS BETWEEN THE COMPANY, U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, IN ITS CAPACITY AS COLLATERAL AGENT, AND WESTERN ALLIANCE BANK, AS MAY BE AMENDED OR RESTATED FROM TIME TO TIME.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture (other than the provisions set forth in this Section 2.05(c)), a Global Note may not be transferred as a whole or in part except (i) by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary and (ii) for exchange of a Global Note or a portion thereof for one or more Physical Notes in accordance with the second immediately succeeding paragraph.

45

The Depositary shall be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act. The Company initially appoints The Depository Trust Company, or DTC, to act as Depositary with respect to each Global Note, if any. Initially, each Global Note shall be issued to the Depositary, registered in the name of Cede & Co., as the nominee of the Depositary, and deposited with the Trustee as Custodian. The Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility for the action or inaction of the Depositary or any other clearing agency.

If after the issuance and authentication of a Global Note (i) the Depositary notifies the Company that the Depositary is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for the Global Notes and a successor depositary is not appointed within 90 calendar days, (ii) the Depositary ceases to be registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act and a successor depositary is not appointed within 90 calendar days, (iii) an Event of Default with respect to the Notes has occurred and is continuing and a beneficial owner of any Note requests that its beneficial interest therein be exchanged for a Physical Note or (iv) a beneficial owner of any Note delivers a Pledge Notice to the Company and requests that its beneficial interest therein be exchanged for a Physical Note, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Officer’s Certificate and a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of Notes, shall authenticate and deliver (x) in the case of clause (iii) or (iv), a Physical Note to such beneficial owner in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Note corresponding to such beneficial owner’s beneficial interest and (y) in the case of clause (i) or (ii), Physical Notes to each beneficial owner of the related Global Notes (or a portion thereof) in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such Global Notes in exchange for such Global Notes, and upon delivery of the Global Notes to the Trustee such Global Notes shall be canceled.

Physical Notes issued in exchange for all or a part of the Global Note pursuant to this Section 2.05(c) shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, or, in the case of clause (iii) of the immediately preceding paragraph, the relevant beneficial owner, shall instruct the Trustee in writing. Upon execution and authentication, the Trustee shall deliver such Physical Notes to the Persons in whose names such Physical Notes are so registered.

At such time as all interests in a Global Note have been converted, canceled, redeemed, repurchased or transferred, such Global Note shall be, upon receipt thereof, canceled by the Trustee in accordance with standing procedures and existing instructions between the Depositary and the Custodian. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any interest in a Global Note is exchanged for Physical Notes, converted, canceled, redeemed, repurchased or transferred to a transferee who receives Physical Notes therefor or any Physical Note is exchanged or transferred for part of such Global Note, the principal amount of such Global Note shall, in accordance with the standing procedures and instructions existing between the Depositary and the Custodian, be appropriately reduced or increased, as the case may be, and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note, by the Trustee or the Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, to reflect such reduction or increase.

46

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture (other than the provisions set forth in this Section 2.05(c)), when Physical Notes are presented to the Note Registrar with a written request: (x) to register the transfer of such Physical Notes; or (y) to exchange such Physical Notes for an equal principal amount of Physical Notes of other authorized denominations, the Note Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested if its reasonable requirements for such transaction are met; provided, however, that the Physical Notes surrendered for transfer or exchange: (i) shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Note Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or its attorney duly authorized in writing; and (ii) so long as such Notes bear a restrictive legend, such Notes may only be transferred or exchanged in accordance with such restrictive legend and the Form of Assignment and Transfer, and if such Physical Notes are being transferred pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, (1) a certification to that effect (in the Form of Assignment and Transfer, if applicable) and (2) if the Company or the Trustee so requests, an Opinion of Counsel in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company as to the compliance with the restrictions set forth in the legend thereon.

None of the Company, the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, the Paying Agent or any agent of the Company, the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or the Paying Agent shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Global Note or maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.

The Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any transfers between or among participants of the Depositary or beneficial owners of interests in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

Neither the Trustee nor any agent of the Trustee shall have any responsibility or liability for any action taken or not taken by the Depositary.

(d) Legends on the Common Stock:

(i) Until the date that is the later of (1) the date that is one year after the date of issuance of the applicable share of Common Stock issued upon a conversion of a Note, (2) the first day on which, following the expiration of any applicable holding period under Rule 144 or any successor provision with respect to the Notes being converted into the applicable share of Common Stock, the Common Stock becomes eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144, and (3) the date on which such share of Common Stock constitutes a “Covered Security” under clause (1), (2) or (3) of the definition of “Covered Security” under Section 18 of the Securities Act, any stock certificate or book entry record representing Common Stock issued upon conversion of a Note shall bear a legend in substantially the following form (unless such Common Stock has been (i) transferred (x) pursuant to, and in accordance with, a registration statement that has become or been declared effective under the Securities Act and that continues to be effective at the time of such transfer and (y) subsequent transfers are not subject to

restrictions under applicable state securities laws, or (ii) transferred (x) pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144, to the extent that Rule 144 is available with respect to such share of Common Stock, or any similar provision then in force under the Securities Act and (y) subsequent transfers are not subject to restrictions under applicable state securities laws, or unless otherwise agreed by the Company in writing, with notice thereof to the Trustee and the transfer agent for the Common Stock; provided, that if the proposed transfer will be made pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Holder must, prior to such transfer, furnish to the Company such certifications, Opinions of Counsel and other information as the Company may reasonably require and on forms reasonably approved by the Company, including a customary release from the transferor and a non-disclosure agreement, to determine that such transfer is being made in accordance with such clause):

THE SALE OF THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND ACCORDINGLY, PRIOR TO THE COMMON STOCK RESALE RESTRICTION TERMINATION DATE (AS DEFINED BELOW), THIS SECURITY MAY NOT BE OFFERED, PLEDGED, RESOLD, OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, EXCEPT:

(A) TO BARKBOX, INC. (THE “COMPANY”), ANY SUBSIDIARY THEREOF, OR ANY PARENT THEREOF IF IT IS THE ISSUER OF THE SECURITY;

(B) PURSUANT TO, AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH, A REGISTRATION STATEMENT THAT IS EFFECTIVE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AT THE TIME OF SUCH TRANSFER; OR

(C) UNDER ANY AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT (INCLUDING, IF AVAILABLE, THE EXEMPTION PROVIDED BY RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT).

IN EACH CASE, IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

THE “COMMON STOCK RESALE RESTRICTION TERMINATION DATE” MEANS THE LATER OF (1) THE DATE THAT IS ONE YEAR AFTER THE DATE OF ISSUANCE OF THE APPLICABLE SHARE OF COMMON STOCK ISSUED UPON A CONVERSION OF A NOTE, (2) THE FIRST DAY ON WHICH, FOLLOWING THE EXPIRATION OF ANY APPLICABLE HOLDING PERIOD UNDER RULE 144 OR ANY SUCCESSOR PROVISION WITH RESPECT TO THE NOTES BEING CONVERTED INTO THE APPLICABLE SHARE OF COMMON STOCK, THE COMMON STOCK BECOMES ELIGIBLE FOR RESALE PURSUANT TO RULE 144, AND (3) THE DATE ON WHICH SUCH SHARE OF COMMON STOCK CONSTITUTES A “COVERED SECURITY” UNDER CLAUSE (1), (2) OR (3) OF THE DEFINITION OF “COVERED SECURITY” UNDER SECTION 18 OF THE SECURITIES ACT.

48

WITH RESPECT TO ANY TRANSFER PURSUANT TO THE FOREGOING CLAUSE (C), PRIOR TO THE RESALE RESTRICTION TERMINATION DATE, THE COMPANY AND THE COMPANY’S TRANSFER AGENT SHALL BE ENTITLED TO REQUIRE THE DELIVERY OF SUCH CERTIFICATIONS, OPINIONS OF COUNSEL OR OTHER INFORMATION AS THEY MAY REASONABLY REQUIRE AND ON FORMS REASONABLY APPROVED BY THE COMPANY, INCLUDING A CUSTOMARY RELEASE FROM THE TRANSFEROR AND A NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT, AND THE NOTE REGISTRAR AND MAY RELY UPON TO CONFIRM THAT SUCH TRANSFER IS BEING MADE PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

(ii) Any such Common Stock (i) as to which such restrictions on transfer shall have expired in accordance with their terms, (ii) that has been transferred (x) pursuant to, and in accordance with, a registration statement that has become effective or been declared effective under the Securities Act and that continues to be effective at the time of such transfer and (y) subsequent transfers are not subject to restrictions under applicable state securities laws, or (iii) that has been sold (x) pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 or any similar provision then in force under the Securities Act and (y) subsequent transfers are not subject to restrictions under applicable state securities laws, may, upon surrender of the certificates representing such shares of Common Stock for exchange in accordance with the procedures of the transfer agent for the Common Stock, be exchanged for a new certificate or certificates for a like aggregate number of shares of Common Stock, which shall not bear the restrictive legend required by this Section 2.05(d).

(e) Any Note or Common Stock issued upon the conversion or exchange of a Note that is redeemed, repurchased or owned by any Affiliate of the Company (or any Person who was an Affiliate of the Company at any time during the three months preceding) may not be resold by such Affiliate (or such Person, as the case may be) unless such Note (i) is eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 (if available) without any limitations thereunder as to volume, manner of sale, availability of current public information or notice, (ii) is sold or otherwise transferred pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or (iii) is resold or otherwise transferred pursuant to another exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act or in a transaction not subject to, the Securities Act, in each case, in accordance with applicable state securities laws and in a transaction that results in such Note or Common Stock, as the case may be, no longer being a “restricted security” (as defined under Rule 144) or any corresponding classification under applicable state securities laws. The Company shall cause any Note that is redeemed, repurchased or owned by it to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation in accordance with Section 2.08.

Section 2.06 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Notes. In case any Note shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company in its discretion may execute, and upon receipt of a Company Order the Trustee or an authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new Note, bearing a registration number not contemporaneously outstanding, in exchange and substitution for the mutilated Note, or in lieu of and in substitution for the Note so destroyed, lost or stolen. In every case the applicant for a substituted Note shall

49

furnish to the Company, to the Trustee and, if applicable, to such authenticating agent such security or indemnity as may be required by them to hold each of them harmless from any loss, liability, cost or expense caused by or connected with such substitution, and, in every case of destruction, loss or theft, the applicant shall also furnish to the Company, to the Trustee and, if applicable, to such authenticating agent evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of such Note and of the ownership thereof.

The Trustee or such authenticating agent may authenticate any such substituted Note and deliver the same upon the receipt of such security or indemnity as the Trustee, the Company and, if applicable, such authenticating agent may require. No service charge shall be imposed on the Holder by the Company, the Trustee, the Note Registrar, any co-Note Registrar or the Paying Agent upon the issuance of any substitute Note, but the Company may require a Holder to pay a sum sufficient to cover any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax required in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder of the new substitute Note being different from the name of the Holder of the old Note that became mutilated or was destroyed, lost or stolen. In case any Note that has matured or is about to mature or has been surrendered for redemption in accordance with Article 13, repurchase in accordance with Article 15 or is about to be converted in accordance with Article 14 shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company may, in its sole discretion, instead of issuing a substitute Note, pay or authorize the payment of or convert or authorize the conversion of the same (without surrender thereof except in the case of a mutilated Note), as the case may be, if the applicant for such payment or conversion shall furnish to the Company, to the Trustee and, if applicable, to such authenticating agent such security or indemnity as may be required by them to hold each of them harmless for any loss, liability, cost or expense caused by or connected with such substitution, and, in every case of destruction, loss or theft, evidence satisfactory to the Company, the Trustee and, if applicable, any Paying Agent or Conversion Agent evidence of their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of such Note and of the ownership thereof.

Every substitute Note issued pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.06 by virtue of the fact that any Note is destroyed, lost or stolen shall constitute an additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be found at any time, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of (but shall be subject to all the limitations set forth in) this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder. To the extent permitted by law, all Notes shall be held and owned upon the express condition that the foregoing provisions are exclusive with respect to the replacement, payment, conversion, redemption or repurchase of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and shall preclude any and all other rights or remedies notwithstanding any law or statute existing or hereafter enacted to the contrary with respect to the replacement, payment, conversion, redemption or repurchase of negotiable instruments or other securities without their surrender.

Section 2.07 Temporary Notes. Pending the preparation of Physical Notes, the Company may execute and the Trustee or an authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Company Order, authenticate and deliver temporary Notes (printed or lithographed). Temporary Notes shall be issuable in any authorized denomination, and substantially in the form of the Physical Notes but with such omissions, insertions and variations as may be appropriate for temporary Notes, all as may be determined by the Company. Every such temporary Note shall be executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee or such

50

authenticating agent upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner, and with the same effect, as the Physical Notes. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Trustee or such authenticating agent Physical Notes (other than any Global Note) and thereupon any or all temporary Notes (other than any Global Note) may be surrendered in exchange therefor, at each office or agency maintained by the Company pursuant to Section 4.02 and the Trustee or such authenticating agent shall, upon receipt of a Company Order, authenticate and deliver in exchange for such temporary Notes an equal aggregate principal amount of Physical Notes. Such exchange shall be made by the Company at its own expense and without any charge therefor. Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits and subject to the same limitations under this Indenture as Physical Notes authenticated and delivered hereunder.

Section 2.08 Cancellation of Notes Paid, Converted, Etc. The Company shall cause all Notes surrendered for the purpose of payment, redemption, repurchase, registration of transfer or exchange or conversion, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee (including any of the Company’s agents, Subsidiaries or Affiliates), to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation. All Notes delivered to the Trustee shall be canceled promptly by it in accordance with its customary procedures, and, except for Notes surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, no Notes shall be authenticated in exchange thereof except as expressly permitted by any of the provisions of this Indenture. The Trustee shall dispose of canceled Notes in accordance with its customary procedures and, after such cancellation, shall deliver a certificate of such cancellation to the Company, at the Company’s written request in a Company Order.

Section 2.09 CUSIP Numbers. The Company in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in all notices issued to Holders as a convenience to such Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or on such notice and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers.

Section 2.10 Additional Notes; Repurchases. Prior to the consummation of a Qualified Public Company Event, the Company may, without the consent of the Holders and notwithstanding Section 2.01, reopen this Indenture and issue Second Tranche Notes hereunder with the same terms as the Notes initially issued hereunder (except for any differences in issue date, issue price and interest accrued, if any). Following the consummation of a Qualified Public Company Event, the Company may, without the consent of the Holders and notwithstanding Section 2.01, reopen this Indenture and issue Additional Notes hereunder with the same terms as the Notes initially issued hereunder (except for any differences in issue date, issue price and interest accrued, if any) in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed such additional principal amount that would cause the Specified Amount to not represent greater than 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, after giving effect to such issuance of Additional Notes; provided that if any such Additional Notes are not fungible with any other Notes that are then outstanding for U.S. federal income tax or for securities law purposes, such Additional Notes shall have a separate or no CUSIP number. Prior to the issuance of any such Additional Notes, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee a Company Order, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, such Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel to

51

provide, in addition to those matters required by Section 18.05, that the Additional Notes have been duly authorized by the Company and are enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, subject to customary exceptions, including for bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws of general application affecting the rights and remedies of creditors and to general principles of equity (including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith, fair dealing and unconscionability), regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or law, and such other items as the Trustee may reasonably request. The Company may, to the extent permitted by law, and directly or indirectly (regardless of whether such Notes are surrendered to the Company), repurchase Notes in the open market or otherwise, whether by the Company or its Subsidiaries or through a private or public tender or exchange offer or through counterparties to private agreements, including by cash-settled swaps or other derivatives. The Company shall cause any Notes so repurchased (other than Notes repurchased pursuant to cash-settled swaps or other derivatives) to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation in accordance with Section 2.08, and such Notes shall no longer be considered outstanding hereunder upon their repurchase.

This Indenture and the Notes and the Note Guarantees, if any, shall upon request of the Company contained in an Officer’s Certificate cease to be of further effect, and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute such instruments reasonably requested by the Company acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the Notes and the Note Guarantees, if any, when (a) (i) all outstanding Notes theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (x) Notes which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced, paid or converted as provided in Section 2.06 and (y) Notes for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 4.04(d)) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or (ii) the Company has deposited with the Trustee or delivered to Holders, as applicable, after the Notes have become due and payable, whether on the Maturity Date, any Change of Control Redemption Date, any Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, any Change of Control Repurchase Date, upon conversion or otherwise, cash or, solely to satisfy the Company’s Conversion Obligation or Change of Control Conversion Obligation, as the case may be, shares of Common Stock and cash in lieu of fractional shares sufficient to pay all of the outstanding Notes or satisfy all outstanding conversions, as the case may be, and pay all other sums due and payable under this Indenture by the Company (for the avoidance of doubt, the Company will deliver any shares of Common Stock to be paid with respect to satisfying outstanding conversions directly to the applicable Holders); and (b) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with. Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent under Section 7.06 and Section 17.11 shall survive.

The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency.

The Company may also from time to time designate as co-Note Registrars one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in the United States of America for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency. The terms “Paying Agent” and “Conversion Agent” include any such additional or other offices or agencies, as applicable.

(c) Anything in Section 4.04(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may, at any time, for the purpose of obtaining a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, or for any other reason, pay, cause to be paid or deliver to the Trustee all sums or amounts held in trust by the Company or any Paying Agent hereunder as required by Section 4.04(a), such sums or amounts to be held by the Trustee upon the trusts herein contained and upon such payment or delivery by the Company or any Paying Agent to the Trustee, the Company or such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability but only with respect to such sums or amounts.

(d) Any money or property deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, accrued and unpaid Cash Interest on and the consideration due upon conversion of any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, Cash Interest or consideration due upon conversion has become due and payable shall, subject to applicable abandoned property laws, be paid to the Company on request of the Company contained in an Officer’s Certificate, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease.

Any such document or report that the Company or the Guarantor, as applicable files with the Commission via the Commission’s EDGAR system (or any successor thereto) shall be deemed to be delivered and filed with the Trustee for purposes of this Section 4.06(c) at the time such documents are filed via the EDGAR system (or any successor thereto); provided, however, that the Trustee shall have no obligation whatsoever to determine whether or not such information, documents or reports have been filed pursuant to EDGAR (or its successor).

(d) Delivery of reports, information and documents to the Trustee under this Indenture is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of the foregoing shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein, or determinable from information contained therein including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants thereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on an Officer’s Certificate).

If the Company shall fail to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes, wherever situated.

In the event there shall be pending proceedings for the bankruptcy or for the reorganization of the Company or any other obligor on the Notes under Title 11 of the United States Code, or any other applicable law, or in case a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for or taken possession of the Company or such other obligor, the property of the Company or such other obligor, or in the event of any other judicial proceedings relative to the Company or such other obligor upon the Notes, or to the creditors or property of the Company or such other obligor, the Trustee, irrespective of whether the principal of the Notes shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6.03, shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceedings or otherwise, to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of principal and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, in respect of the Notes, and, in case of any judicial proceedings, to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents and to take such other actions as it may deem necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceedings relative to the Company or any other obligor on the Notes, its or their creditors, or its or their property, and to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims, and to distribute the same after the deduction of any amounts due to the Trustee hereunder; and any receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, custodian or similar official is hereby authorized by each of the Holders to make such payments to the Trustee, as administrative expenses, 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 reasonable compensation, reasonable expenses, advances and

67

disbursements, including agents and counsel fees, and including any other amounts due to the Trustee hereunder, incurred by it up to the date of such distribution. To the extent that such payment of reasonable compensation, reasonable expenses, advances and disbursements out of the estate in any such proceedings shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, monies, securities and other property that the Holders of the Notes may be entitled to receive in such proceedings, whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise.

Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting such Holder or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the Notes, may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes, or the production thereof at any trial or other proceeding relative thereto, and any such suit or proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes.

In any proceedings brought by the Trustee (and in any proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the Trustee shall be a party) the Trustee shall be held to represent all the Holders of the Notes, and it shall not be necessary to make any Holders of the Notes parties to any such proceedings.

In case the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned because of any waiver pursuant to Section 6.09 or any rescission and annulment pursuant to Section 6.02 or for any other reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case the Company, the Holders and the Trustee shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, be restored respectively to their several positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Company, the Holders and the Trustee shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

68

First, to the payment of all amounts due the Trustee (in any capacity), the Collateral Agent and their respective agents under this Indenture;

Second, in case the principal of the outstanding Notes shall not have become due and be unpaid, to the payment of interest on, and any cash due upon conversion of, the Notes in default in the order of the date due of the payments of such interest and cash due upon conversion, as the case may be, with interest (to the extent that such interest has been collected by the Trustee) upon such overdue payments at the rate borne by the Notes at such time, such payments to be made ratably to the Persons entitled thereto;

Third, in case the principal of the outstanding Notes shall have become due, by declaration or otherwise, and be unpaid to the payment of the whole amount (including, if applicable, the payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, the Change of Control Repurchase Price, and any cash due upon conversion) then owing and unpaid upon the Notes for principal and interest, if any, with interest on the overdue principal and, to the extent that such interest has been collected by the Trustee, upon overdue installments of interest at the rate borne by the Notes at such time, and in case such monies shall be insufficient to pay in full the whole amounts so due and unpaid upon the Notes, then to the payment of such principal (including, if applicable, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, Change of Control Repurchase Price, and any cash due upon conversion) and interest without preference or priority of principal over interest, or of interest over principal or of any installment of interest over any other installment of interest, or of any Note over any other Note, ratably to the aggregate of such principal (including, if applicable, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, the Change of Control Repurchase Price, and any cash due upon conversion) and accrued and unpaid interest; and

Fourth, to the payment of the remainder, if any, to the Company or the Guarantors, if any, as the case may be.

Section 6.06 Proceedings by Holders. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal (including, if applicable, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price and the Change of Control Repurchase Price) or interest when due, or the right to receive payment or delivery of the consideration due upon conversion, no Holder shall have any right by virtue of or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator, custodian or other similar official, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:

(a) such Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee notice of an Event of Default and of the continuance thereof, as herein provided;

(b) Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding shall have made written request upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder;

(c) such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee such security or indemnity, in each case, satisfactory to the Trustee against all losses, liabilities and expenses to be incurred therein or thereby;

69

(d) the Trustee for 60 calendar days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of such security or indemnity, shall have neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit or proceeding; and

(e) no direction that is inconsistent with such written request shall have been given to the Trustee by the Holders of the Minimum Principal Amount of the Notes then outstanding within such 60-calendar day period pursuant to Section 6.09,

it being understood and intended, and being expressly covenanted by the taker and Holder of every Note with every other taker and Holder and the Trustee that no one or more Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holder, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any other such Holder, or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all Holders (except as otherwise provided herein); 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. For the protection and enforcement of this Section 6.06, each and every Holder and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture and any provision of any Note, the right of any Holder to receive payment or delivery, as the case may be, of (x) the principal of, (y) accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, and (z) the consideration due upon conversion of, such Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for in such Note or in this Indenture, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment or delivery, as the case may be, on or after such respective dates against the Company shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

Section 6.07 Proceedings by Trustee. In case of an Event of Default, the Trustee may proceed to protect and enforce the rights vested in it by this Indenture by such appropriate judicial proceedings as are necessary to protect and enforce any of such rights, either by suit in equity or by action at law or by proceeding in bankruptcy or otherwise, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement contained in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in this Indenture, or to enforce any other legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by this Indenture or by law.

Section 6.08 Remedies Cumulative and Continuing. Except as provided in the last paragraph of Section 2.06, all powers and remedies given by this Article 6 to the Trustee or to the Holders shall, to the extent permitted by law, be deemed cumulative and not exclusive of any thereof or of any other powers and remedies available to the Trustee or the Holders of the Notes, by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to enforce the performance or observance of the covenants and agreements contained in this Indenture, and no delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any of the Notes to exercise any right or power accruing upon any Default or Event of Default shall impair any such right or power, or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Default or Event of Default or any acquiescence therein; and, subject to the provisions of Section 6.06, every power and remedy given by this Article 6 or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as shall be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders.

70

Section 6.09 Direction of Proceedings and Waiver of Defaults by Holders. Subject to the Trustee’s right to receive indemnity or security satisfactory to it from the relevant Holders as described herein, the Holders of the Minimum Principal Amount of the Notes at the time outstanding determined in accordance with Section 8.04 shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Notes; provided, however, that (a) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, and (b) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction. The Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that it determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not such directions are unduly prejudicial to such Holder) or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability. The Holders of the Minimum Principal Amount of the Notes at the time outstanding determined in accordance with Section 8.04, by notice to the Trustee, may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any past Default or Event of Default hereunder and its consequences except (1) a default in the payment of accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, or the principal (including any Fundamental Change Repurchase Price and Change of Control Repurchase Price) of, the Notes when due that has not been cured pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.01, (2) a failure by the Company to pay or deliver, as the case may be, the consideration due upon conversion of the Notes, (3) a failure by the Company to repurchase any Notes when required under this Indenture or (4) a default in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article 10 cannot be modified or amended without the consent of each Holder of an outstanding Note affected. Upon any such waiver the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Whenever any Default or Event of Default hereunder shall have been waived as permitted by this Section 6.09, said Default or Event of Default shall for all purposes of the Notes and this Indenture be deemed to have been cured and to be not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Section 6.10 Notice of Defaults. The Trustee shall, within 90 calendar days after it receives notice of the occurrence and continuance of a Default of which a Responsible Officer has actual knowledge, mail (or send electronically) to each Holder notice of all Defaults known to a Responsible Officer, unless such Defaults shall have been cured or waived before the giving of such notice; provided that, except in the case of a Default in the payment of the principal of, or accrued and unpaid interest on, any of the Notes or a Default in the payment or delivery of the consideration due upon conversion, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Holders.

Section 6.11 Undertaking to Pay Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by its acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may, in its discretion, require, 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, the

71

filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; provided that the provisions of this Section 6.11 (to the extent permitted by law) shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding determined in accordance with Section 8.04, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on any Note (including, but not limited to, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price or Change of Control Repurchase Price, if applicable) on or after the due date expressed or provided for in such Note or to any suit for the enforcement of the right to convert any Note, or receive the consideration due upon conversion, in accordance with the provisions of Article 14.

ARTICLE 7

CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE

Section 7.01 Duties and Responsibilities of Trustee.

In the event an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs; provided that if an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against all losses, liabilities and expenses that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction. Prior to taking any action hereunder at the Company’s instruction, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification by the Company satisfactory to the Trustee against all losses, liabilities and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.

(c) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of not less than the Minimum Principal Amount of the Notes at the time outstanding determined as provided in Section 8.04 relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture;

(e) the Trustee shall not be liable in respect of any payment (as to the correctness of amount, entitlement to receive or any other matters relating to payment) or notice effected by the Company or any Paying Agent or any records maintained by any co-Note Registrar with respect to the Notes;

(f) if any party fails to deliver a notice relating to an event the fact of which, pursuant to this Indenture, requires notice to be sent to the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively rely on its failure to receive such notice as reason to act as if no such event occurred, unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee had actual knowledge of such event;

(g) in the absence of written investment direction from the Company, all cash received by the Trustee shall be placed in a non-interest bearing trust account, and in no event shall the Trustee be liable for the selection of investments or for investment losses incurred thereon or for losses incurred as a result of the liquidation of any such investment prior to its maturity date or the failure of the party directing such investments prior to its maturity date or the failure of the party directing such investment to provide timely written investment direction, and the Trustee shall have no obligation to invest or reinvest any amounts held hereunder in the absence of such written investment direction from the Company;

(h) in the event that the Trustee is also acting as Custodian, Note Registrar, Paying Agent, Conversion Agent, Collateral Agent, or transfer agent hereunder, the rights, privileges, immunities, benefits and protections (including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified) afforded to the Trustee pursuant to this Article 7 shall also be afforded to such Custodian, Note Registrar, Paying Agent, Conversion Agent, Collateral Agent, or transfer agent;

73

74

(c) the Trustee and the Collateral Agent may consult with counsel of its selection and require an Opinion of Counsel and any advice of such counsel or Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such advice or Opinion of Counsel;

(d) the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, other evidence of Indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee and the Collateral Agent may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company and the Guarantors, if any, personally or by agent or attorney at the expense of the Company and the Guarantors, if any, and shall incur no liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation;

(e) the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents, custodians, nominees or attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent, custodian, nominee or attorney appointed by it with due care hereunder;

In no event shall the Trustee and the Collateral Agent be liable for any consequential, special, indirect or punitive loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Trustee and the Collateral Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes, unless either (1) a Responsible Officer shall have actual knowledge of such Default or Event of Default or (2) written notice of such Default or Event of Default shall have been given to the Trustee by the Company or by any Holder of the Notes at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Notes and this Indenture.

Section 7.03 No Responsibility for Recitals, Etc. The recitals contained herein and in the Notes (except in the Trustee’s certificate of authentication) shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee and the Collateral Agent assume no responsibility for the correctness of the same.

The Trustee, any Paying Agent, any Conversion Agent, Collateral Agent or Note Registrar, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes with the same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee, Paying Agent, Conversion Agent, Collateral Agent or Note Registrar.

Section 7.05 Monies to Be Held in Trust. All monies received by the Trustee shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were received. Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as may be agreed in writing from time to time by the Company and the Trustee.

Section 7.06 Compensation and Expenses of Trustee. The Company covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee from time to time, and the Trustee shall be entitled to, reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder in any capacity (which shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust) as mutually agreed to in writing between the Trustee and the Company, and the Company will pay or reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this Indenture in any capacity thereunder (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel and of all Persons not regularly in its employ) except any such expense, disbursement or advance as shall have been caused by its gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith (in each case, as determined by a final order of a court of competent jurisdiction not subject to further appeal). The Company and the Guarantors, if any, also, jointly and severally, covenant to indemnify the Trustee (or any predecessor Trustee) in any capacity under this Indenture and any other document or transaction entered into in connection herewith and its agents and any authenticating agent for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense, including taxes (other than taxes based upon, measured by or determined by the income of the Trustee) incurred without gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith on the part of the Trustee, its officers, directors, agents or employees, or such agent or authenticating agent, as the case may be (in each case, as determined by a final order of a court of competent jurisdiction not subject to further appeal), and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this Indenture or in any other capacity hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending themselves against any claim or liability (whether asserted by the Company, or any Holder or any other Person). The obligations of the Company and the Guarantors, if any, under this Section 7.06 to compensate or indemnify the Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee for expenses, disbursements and advances shall be secured by a lien to which the Notes are hereby made subordinate on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except, subject to the effect of Section 6.05, funds held in trust herewith for the benefit of the Holders of particular Notes. The Trustee’s right to receive payment of any amounts due under this Section 7.06 shall not be subordinate to any other liability or Indebtedness of the Company or the Guarantors, if any. The obligation of the Company and the Guarantors, if any, under this Section 7.06 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the earlier resignation or removal or the Trustee. The Company and the Guarantors, if any, need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The indemnification provided in this Section 7.06 shall extend to the officers, directors, agents and employees of the Trustee.

76

Without prejudice to any other rights available to the Trustee under applicable law, when the Trustee and its agents and any authenticating agent incur expenses or render services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(h) or Section 6.01(i) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws.

The provisions of this Section 7.06 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge or termination of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee. “Trustee” for the purposes of this Section 7.06 shall include any predecessor Trustee and the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder and each agent, custodian and other person employed to act hereunder; provided, however, that the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Trustee hereunder shall not affect the rights of any other Trustee hereunder.

Section 7.07 Officer’s Certificate as Evidence. Whenever in the administration of the provisions of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or omitting any action hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of gross negligence, willful misconduct and bad faith (in each case, as determined by a final order of a court of competent jurisdiction not subject to further appeal) on the part of the Trustee, be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee, and such Officer’s Certificate, in the absence of gross negligence, willful misconduct and bad faith on the part of the Trustee, shall be full warrant to the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it under the provisions of this Indenture upon the faith thereof.

Section 7.08 Eligibility of Trustee. There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be a Person that is eligible pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act (as if the Trust Indenture Act were applicable hereto) to act as such and has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If such Person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of any supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 7.08, the combined capital and surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.08, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article 7.

Section 7.09 Resignation or Removal of Trustee. The Trustee may at any time resign by giving written notice of such resignation to the Company and by delivering notice thereof to the Holders. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Directors of the Company, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one copy to the successor trustee. If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 60 calendar days after the delivery of such notice of resignation to the Holders, the resigning Trustee may, upon ten Business Days’ notice to the Company and the Holders and at the Company’s expense petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the

77

appointment of a successor trustee, or any Holder who has been a bona fide holder of a Note or Notes for at least six months (or since the Issue Date) may, subject to the provisions of Section 6.11, on behalf of himself or herself and all others similarly situated, petition any such court for the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, appoint a successor trustee.

(a) In case at any time any of the following shall occur:

(i) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.08 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Holder, or

(ii) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,

then, in either case, the Company may by a Board Resolution remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Directors of the Company, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor trustee, or, subject to the provisions of Section 6.11, any Holder who has been a bona fide holder of a Note or Notes for at least six months (or since the Issue Date) may, on behalf of himself or herself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee. If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 60 calendar days after the delivery of such notice of resignation to the Holders, the resigning Trustee may, upon ten Business Days’ notice to the Company and the Holders at the Company’s expense, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee.

(b) The Holders of the Minimum Principal Amount of the Notes at the time outstanding, as determined in accordance with Section 8.04, may at any time remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Company in writing not less than 30 days prior to the Effective Date of such removal and nominate a successor trustee that shall be deemed appointed as successor trustee unless within ten calendar days after notice to the Company of such nomination the Company objects thereto, in which case the Trustee so removed or any Holder, upon the terms and conditions and otherwise as in Section 7.09(a) provided at the expense of the Company, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for an appointment of a successor trustee.

(c) Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 7.09 shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section 7.10. The Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility for the action or inaction of any successor trustee.

78

Section 7.10 Acceptance by Successor Trustee. Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 7.09 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to its predecessor trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as Trustee herein; but, nevertheless, on the written request of the Company or of the successor trustee, the trustee ceasing to act shall, upon payment of any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.06, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor trustee all the rights and powers of the trustee so ceasing to act. Upon request of any such successor trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments in writing for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor trustee all such rights and powers. Any trustee ceasing to act shall, nevertheless, retain a lien to which the Notes are hereby made subordinate on all money or property held or collected by such trustee as such, except for funds held in trust for the benefit of Holders of particular Notes, to secure any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.06.

No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section 7.10 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 7.08.

Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section 7.10, each of the Company and the successor trustee, at the written direction and at the expense of the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered notice of the succession of such trustee hereunder to the Holders. If the Company fails to deliver such notice (or cause such notice to be delivered) within ten calendar days after acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be delivered at the expense of the Company.

Section 7.11 Succession by Merger, Etc. Any corporation or other entity into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation or other entity resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation or other entity succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee (including the administration of this Indenture), shall be the successor to the Trustee hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto; provided that in the case of any corporation or other entity succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee such corporation or other entity shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 7.08.

In case at the time such successor to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture, any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee or authenticating agent appointed by such predecessor trustee, and deliver such Notes so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee or an authenticating agent appointed by such successor trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor trustee hereunder or in the name of the successor trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have; provided, however, that the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee or to authenticate Notes in the name of any predecessor trustee shall apply only to its successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation.

CONCERNING THE HOLDERS

Section 8.01 Action by Holders. Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the Holders of a specified percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes may take any action (including the making of any demand or request, the giving of any notice, consent or waiver or the taking of any other action), the fact that at the time of taking any such action, the Holders of such specified percentage have joined therein may be evidenced (a) by any instrument or any number of instruments of similar tenor executed by Holders in person or by agent or proxy appointed in writing, or (b) by the record of the Holders voting in favor thereof at any meeting of Holders duly called and held in accordance with the provisions of Article 9, or (c) by a combination of such instrument or instruments and any such record of such a meeting of Holders. Whenever the Company or the Trustee solicits the taking of any action by the Holders of the Notes, the Company or the Trustee may, but shall not be required to, fix in advance of such solicitation, a date as the record date for determining Holders entitled to take such action. The record date if one is selected shall be not more than fifteen calendar days prior to the date of commencement of solicitation of such action.

Section 8.02 Proof of Execution by Holders. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, Section 7.02 and Section 9.05, proof of the execution of any instrument by a Holder or its agent or proxy shall be sufficient if made in accordance with such reasonable rules and regulations as may be prescribed by the Trustee or in such manner as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee. The holding of Notes shall be proved by the Note Register or by a certificate of the Note Registrar. The record of any Holders’ meeting shall be proved in the manner provided in Section 9.06.

Section 8.03 Who Are Deemed Absolute Owners. The Company, the Trustee, any authenticating agent, any Paying Agent, any Conversion Agent and any Note Registrar may deem the Person in whose name a Note shall be registered upon the Note Register to be, and may treat it as, the absolute owner of such Note (whether or not such Note shall be overdue and

80

notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing thereon made by any Person other than the Company or any Note Registrar) for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal of and (subject to Section 2.03) accrued and unpaid interest on such Note, for conversion of such Note and for all other purposes; and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any Paying Agent nor any Conversion Agent nor any Note Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. All such payments or deliveries so made to any Holder for the time being, or upon its order, shall be valid, and, to the extent of the sums or shares of Common Stock so paid or delivered, effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability for monies payable or shares deliverable upon any such Note. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or the Notes following an Event of Default, any Holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note may directly enforce against the Company, without the consent, solicitation, proxy, authorization or any other action of the Depositary or any other Person, such Holder’s right to exchange such beneficial interest for a Note in certificated form in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.

Section 8.04 Company-Owned Notes Disregarded. In determining whether the Holders of the requisite aggregate principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, consent, waiver or other action under this Indenture, Notes that are owned by the Company, the Guarantors, if any, by any Subsidiary thereof or by any Affiliate of the Company or the Guarantors, if any, or any Subsidiary thereof shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such determination; provided that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, consent, waiver or other action only Notes that a Responsible Officer actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Notes so owned that have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as outstanding for the purposes of this Section 8.04 if the pledgee shall establish to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right to so act with respect to such Notes and that the pledgee is not the Company, the Guarantors, if any, a Subsidiary thereof or an Affiliate of the Company or a Subsidiary thereof. In the case of a dispute as to such right, any decision by the Trustee taken upon the advice of counsel shall be full protection to the Trustee. Upon request of the Trustee, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee promptly an Officer’s Certificate listing and identifying all Notes, if any, known by the Company to be owned or held by or for the account of any of the above described Persons; and, subject to Section 7.01, the Trustee shall be entitled to accept such Officer’s Certificate as conclusive evidence of the facts therein set forth and of the fact that all Notes not listed therein are outstanding for the purpose of any such determination.

Section 8.05 Revocation of Consents; Future Holders Bound. At any time prior to (but not after) the evidencing to the Trustee, as provided in Section 8.01, of the taking of any action by the Holders of the percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes specified in this Indenture in connection with such action, any Holder of a Note that is shown by the evidence to be included in the Notes the Holders of which have consented to such action may, by filing written notice with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office and upon proof of holding as provided in Section 8.02, revoke such action so far as concerns such Note. Except as aforesaid, any such action taken by the Holder of any Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders and owners of such Note and of any Notes issued in exchange or substitution therefor or upon registration of transfer thereof, irrespective of whether any notation in regard thereto is made upon such Note or any Note issued in exchange or substitution therefor or upon registration of transfer thereof.

Holders do not need under this Section 10.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver. It shall be sufficient if such Holders approve the substance thereof. After any such amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, the Company shall deliver to the Holders (with a copy to the Trustee) a notice briefly describing such amendment, supplement or waiver.

(a) If the Company wishes to exercise its right to redeem all or, as the case may be, any part of the Notes pursuant to Section 13.02, it shall fix a date for the Change of Control Redemption which shall be the Change of Control Effective Date (the “Change of Control Redemption Date”), and it or, at its written request received by the Trustee at least five Business Days prior to the date such notice is to be sent to Holders in the form of an Officer’s Certificate requesting that the Trustee provide such notice and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in this Section 13.03 (unless a shorter period shall be acceptable to the Trustee), the Trustee, in the name of and at the expense of the Company, shall provide notice of such Change of Control Redemption (a “Change of Control Redemption Notice”) not less than ten (10) nor more than thirty (30) calendar days prior to the expected Change of Control Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed as a whole or in part at its last address as the same appears on the Note Register; provided that, the Holder shall be entitled to elect to convert all or any portion of the specified Notes in connection with, and conditioned upon the consummation of the anticipated Change of Control, in which case such conversion shall occur immediately prior to such anticipated Change of Control. For the avoidance of doubt, the Change of Control Redemption Date must be a Business Day and any Change of Control Redemption for Global Notes shall be in accordance with the Depositary’s applicable procedures.

(b) The Change of Control Redemption Notice, if mailed in the manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to give such Change of Control Redemption Notice by mail to the Holder of any Note designated for Change of Control Redemption as a whole or in part, or any defect in the Change of Control Redemption Notice, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Note.

(c) Each Change of Control Redemption Notice shall specify:

(i) the events causing the Change of Control;

(ii) the expected date of the Change of Control;

(iii) the expected Change of Control Redemption Date;

(iv) the Change of Control Redemption Price;

(v) the name and address of the Paying Agent and the Conversion Agent, if applicable;

(vi) the Change of Control Conversion Rate and that Holders may surrender their Notes for conversion at any time not less than 3 calendar days prior to the expected Change of Control Redemption Date;

(vii) that on the Change of Control Redemption Date, the Change of Control Redemption Price will be paid upon each Note to be redeemed, and that, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Redemption Price, interest thereon, if any, shall cease to accrue on and after the Change of Control Redemption Date;

91

(viii) the place or places where such Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the Change of Control Redemption Price; and

(ix) in case any Note is redeemed in part only, the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed, which principal amount must be $1,000 or an integral multiple in excess thereof, and that on and after the Change of Control Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Note, a new Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof shall be issued.

(d) If fewer than all of the outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the Notes shall be selected for Change of Control Redemption (in principal amounts of $1,000 or multiples thereof) in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC, in the case of Global Notes, or by lot, in the case of Physical Notes.

(e) If a Holder converts a Note a portion of which has been selected for Change of Control Redemption, the converted portion will be deemed to be from the portion selected for Change of Control Redemption.

(f) In the event of any Change of Control Redemption in part, the Company shall not be required to register the transfer of or exchange any Note so selected for Change of Control Redemption, in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.

Section 13.04 Payment of Notes Called for Change of Control Redemption.

(a) If any Change of Control Redemption Notice has been given in respect of the Notes in accordance with Section 13.03, the Notes shall become due and payable on the Change of Control Redemption Date at the place or places stated in the Change of Control Redemption Notice and at the Change of Control Redemption Price. On presentation and surrender of the Notes at the place or places stated in the Change of Control Redemption Notice, the Notes shall be paid and redeemed by the Company at the applicable Change of Control Redemption Price.

(b) Prior to the open of business on the Change of Control Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent an amount of cash (in immediately available funds if deposited on the Change of Control Redemption Date), sufficient to pay the Change of Control Redemption Price of all of the Notes to be redeemed on such Change of Control Redemption Date. Subject to receipt of funds by the Paying Agent, payment for the Notes to be redeemed (including the payment of any non-cash consideration, which shall be paid directly by the Company or its designee, rather than the Paying Agent) shall be made on the Change of Control Redemption Date for such Notes. The Paying Agent shall, promptly after such payment and upon written demand by the Company, return to the Company any funds in excess of the cash portion of the Change of Control Redemption Price. If any portion of the Change of Control Redemption Price is payable in a form other than cash, such non-cash consideration shall be delivered by the Company or its designee directly to the Holders.

92

Section 13.05 Restrictions on Change of Control Redemption. The Company may not redeem any Notes on any date if the principal amount of the Notes has been accelerated in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, and such acceleration has not been rescinded, on or prior to the Change of Control Redemption Date (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Change of Control Redemption Price with respect to such Notes).

ARTICLE 14

CONVERSION OF NOTES

Section 14.01 Conversion upon Change of Control. Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this Article 14, including without limitation Section 14.03(i), each Holder of a Note shall have the right, at such Holder’s option, to convert all or any portion (if the portion to be converted is $1,000 principal amount or an integral multiple thereof (or, if a PIK Payment has been made, if the portion to be converted is $1.00 principal amount or an integral multiple thereof )) of such Note on or after the time that is ten (10) Business Days prior to the anticipated Effective Date of a Change of Control until the close of business on the day that is three (3) calendar days prior to the actual date such Change of Control becomes effective (the “Change of Control Effective Date”), into Common Stock (or such Reference Property pursuant to Section 14.08 in lieu of such Common Stock), subject to, and in accordance with, the settlement provisions of Section 14.03 (the “Change of Control Conversion Obligation”). The Company shall notify the Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) in writing of any Change of Control no later than fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the anticipated Effective Date of a Change of Control (or if such anticipated Effective Date is not known prior to such date, promptly following knowledge of such anticipated Effective Date but in any event no later than two (2) Business Days after the Change of Control Effective Date). In the case of Physical Notes, such notice shall be by first class mail or, in the case of Global Notes, such notice shall be delivered in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary. No failure of the Company to give the foregoing notice and no defect therein shall limit the Holders’ conversion rights or affect the validity of the proceedings for the conversion of the Notes pursuant to this Section 14.01. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Holder may convert any portion of such Holder’s Notes unless the Notes delivered for conversion represent (1) at least $250,000 in aggregate principal amount of Notes (the “Minimum Conversion Amount”) or (2) if less than the Minimum Conversion Amount, all of the Notes held at such time by Holder.

Section 14.02 Conversion. Other than upon a Change of Control pursuant to Section 14.01, and subject to and upon compliance with the other provisions of this Article 14, each Holder of a Note shall have the right, at such Holder’s option, to convert all or any portion (if the portion to be converted is $1,000 principal amount or an integral multiple thereof (or, if a PIK Payment has been made, if the portion to be converted is $1.00 or an integral multiple thereof)) of such Note, whether prior to, on or after a Qualified Public Company Event until the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, into a number of shares of Common Stock equal to (a), if no PIK Payment has been made, the applicable Conversion Rate per $1,000 principal amount of Notes or (b), if a PIK Payment has been made, the quotient of (i) the applicable Conversion Rate and (ii) $1,000, per $1.00 principal amount of Notes (subject, in each case, to, and in accordance with, the settlement provisions of Section 14.03, the “Conversion Obligation”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Holder may convert any portion of such Holder’s Notes unless the Notes delivered for conversion represent (1) at least the Minimum Conversion Amount or (2) if less than the Minimum Conversion Amount, all of the Notes held at such time by Holder.

93

Section 14.03 Conversion Procedure; Settlement Upon Conversion.

(a) Subject to Section 14.01, Section 14.02, this Section 14.03 and Section 14.08(a), upon conversion of any Note pursuant to (i) Section 14.01, the Company shall deliver to the converting Holder shares of Common Stock (rounding up to the nearest whole share) (or such Reference Property pursuant to Section 14.08 in lieu of such Common Stock), at the Change of Control Conversion Rate; or (ii) Section 14.02, the Company shall deliver to the converting Holder shares of Common Stock, together with a cash payment in lieu of delivering any fractional share as set forth below under Section 14.03(c), at a Conversion Rate in accordance with Section 14.02 (as adjusted pursuant to Section 14.05, as applicable), in each case (i) and (ii), on the second Business Day following the relevant Conversion Date (or such other date that may be applicable pursuant to a conversion in accordance with Section 14.03(c) or Section 14.03(k)). A Holder may convert fewer than all of such Holder’s Notes.

(b) Before any Holder of a Note shall be entitled to convert a Note as set forth above, such Holder shall (i) if such Holder would have a filing and waiting period or approval requirement in advance of such Conversion under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (the “HSR Act”) or any other antitrust, merger control, or competition law (collectively with the HSR Act, the “Antitrust Laws”) make or cause to be made by its ultimate parent entity as that term is defined in the HSR Act any such required filings under the Antitrust Laws and obtain any required waiting period expirations or terminations or approvals; (ii) in the case of a Global Note, comply with the procedures of the Depositary in effect at that time and, if required, (1) pay funds to the Conversion Agent equal to interest payable on the next Interest Payment Date to which such Holder is not entitled as set forth in Section 14.03(h) and (2) pay all transfer, stamp and similar taxes as set forth in Section 14.03(d) and Section 14.03(e); and (iii) in the case of a Physical Note, (1) complete, manually sign and deliver an irrevocable (except as set forth in clause (c)) notice to the Conversion Agent as set forth in the Form of Notice of Conversion (or a facsimile thereof) (a “Notice of Conversion”) at the office of the Conversion Agent and state in writing therein the principal amount of Notes to be converted and the name or names (with addresses) in which such Holder wishes the certificate or certificates for any shares of Common Stock to be delivered upon settlement of the Conversion Obligation or the Change of Control Conversion Obligation, as the case may be, to be registered, (2) surrender such Notes, duly endorsed to the Company or in blank (and accompanied by appropriate endorsement and transfer documents), at the office of the Conversion Agent, (3) if required, furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents that the Company or the Conversion Agent may reasonably require, (4) if required, pay all transfer, stamp and similar taxes as set forth in Section 14.03(d) and Section 14.03(e) and (5) if required, pay funds to the Conversion Agent equal to interest payable on the next Interest Payment Date to which such Holder is not entitled as set forth in Section 14.03(h). The Trustee (and if different, the Conversion Agent) shall notify the Company of any conversion pursuant to this Article 14 on the Conversion Date for such conversion. No Notice of Conversion with respect to any Notes may be surrendered by a Holder thereof if such Holder has also delivered a Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice or a Change of Control Repurchase Notice to the Company in respect of such Notes and has not validly withdrawn such Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice or Change of Control Repurchase Notice in accordance with Section 15.04.

94

If more than one Note shall be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same Holder, the Conversion Obligation or the Change of Control Conversion Obligation, as the case may be, with respect to such Notes shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes (or specified portions thereof to the extent permitted thereby) so surrendered.

(c) A Note shall be deemed to have been converted immediately prior to the close of business on the date (the “Conversion Date”) that the Holder has complied with the requirements set forth in subsection (b) above except in the case of subsection (b)(i) above in which case a Note shall be deemed to have been converted the day following the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period or the receipt of approval under any Antitrust Law; provided that, in any Notice of Conversion, a Holder that has complied with the requirements set forth in subsection (b) above shall be entitled to elect to convert all or any portion, subject to the Minimum Conversion Amount, of its Notes in connection with, and conditioned upon, the consummation of an anticipated Specified Corporate Event, in which case the Conversion Date shall be the date of the consummation of such Specified Corporate Event, and such Notes will be converted into the Common Stock immediately following the consummation of such Specified Corporate Event unless the Holder designates in its Notice of Conversion that such conversion shall occur immediately prior to such Specified Corporate Event, provided that, if the Company notifies Holders or otherwise announces that it will not complete such Specified Corporate Event, such Holder shall be entitled to revoke its Notice of Conversion at any time thereafter. In connection with a SPAC Transaction, the Company agrees to provide written notice to the Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent of the date on which the Notes shall be convertible into the Common Stock of the SPAC, and to otherwise comply with the applicable procedures of the Depositary in connection with the foregoing. Prior to the Qualified Public Company Event, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued, and deliver to such Holder, or such Holder’s nominee or nominees, the full number of shares of Common Stock to which such Holder shall be entitled, in certificate form and by updating the stockholder register of the Company, in satisfaction of the Company’s Conversion Obligation or the Change of Control Conversion Obligation, as the case may be; provided that, following the Qualified Public Company Event, the Company shall (1) provided that the transfer agent for the Common Stock is participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled pursuant to such conversion to the Holder’s or its nominee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian system or (2) if the transfer agent for the Common Stock is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, upon the request of the Holder, issue and deliver (via reputable overnight courier) to the address as specified in the Notice of Conversion, a certificate, registered in the name of the Holder or its nominee, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled pursuant to such conversion.

95

(d) In case any Physical Note shall be surrendered for partial conversion, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to or upon the written order of the Holder of the Note so surrendered a new Note or Notes in authorized denominations in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unconverted portion of the surrendered Note, without payment of any service charge by the converting Holder but, if required by the Company or Trustee, with payment of a sum sufficient to cover any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax or similar governmental charge required by law or that may be imposed in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder of the new Notes issued upon such conversion being different from the name of the Holder of the old Notes surrendered for such conversion.

(e) If a Holder submits a Note for conversion, the Company shall pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of any shares of Common Stock upon conversion, unless the tax is due because the Holder requests any such shares to be issued in a name other than the Holder’s name, in which case the Holder must pay that tax. The Conversion Agent may refuse to deliver the certificates representing the shares of Common Stock being issued in a name other than the Holder’s name until the Trustee receives a sum sufficient to pay any tax that is due by such Holder in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.

(f) Except as provided in Section 14.05, no adjustment shall be made for dividends on any shares of Common Stock issued upon the conversion of any Note as provided in this Article 14.

(g) Upon the conversion of an interest in a Global Note, the Trustee, or the Custodian at the direction of the Trustee, shall make a notation on such Global Note as to the reduction in the principal amount represented thereby. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of any conversion of Notes effected through any Conversion Agent other than the Trustee. Upon the delivery of shares of Common Stock outside of the Depositary in connection with a conversion of an interest in a Global Note, the Company shall provide notice thereof to the Depositary, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent and shall provide such information as may be requested by the Depositary, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent in connection therewith.

(h) Subject to Section 14.01 and 14.02, upon conversion, a Holder shall not receive any separate cash payment for accrued and unpaid interest, if any, except as set forth below. The Company’s settlement of the full Conversion Obligation or Change of Control Conversion Obligation, as applicable, shall be deemed to satisfy in full its obligation to pay the principal amount of the Note and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the relevant Conversion Date. As a result, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the relevant Conversion Date shall be deemed to be paid in full rather than cancelled, extinguished or forfeited. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Notes are converted after the close of business on a Regular Record Date and prior to open of business on the corresponding Interest Payment Date, Holders of such Notes as of the close of business on such Regular Record Date will receive the full amount of interest payable on such Notes in cash on the corresponding Interest Payment Date notwithstanding the conversion. Notes surrendered for conversion during the period beginning after the close of business on any Regular Record Date and ending at the open of business on the immediately following Interest Payment Date must be accompanied by cash funds equal to the amount of interest payable on the Notes so converted (regardless of whether the converting Holder was the holder of record on such Regular Record Date); provided that no such payment shall be required (1) for Notes surrendered for conversion after the close of

96

business on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date; (2) if the Company has specified a Fundamental Change Repurchase Date that is after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the Scheduled Trading Day immediately following the corresponding Interest Payment Date; (3) if the Company has specified a Change of Control Repurchase Date that is after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the Scheduled Trading Day immediately following the corresponding Interest Payment Date; or (4) to the extent of any Defaulted Amounts, if any Defaulted Amounts exists at the time of conversion with respect to such Note. Therefore, for the avoidance of doubt, all Holders of record on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date, any Fundamental Change Repurchase Date described in clause (2) or any Change of Control Repurchase Date described in clause (3) of the immediately preceding sentence shall receive the full interest payment due on the Maturity Date or other applicable Interest Payment Date in cash regardless of whether their Notes have been converted or repurchased, as applicable, following such Regular Record Date.

(i) The Person in whose name the shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon a conversion of Notes shall be become the equityholder of record as of the close of business on the relevant Conversion Date. Upon a conversion of Notes, such Person shall no longer be a Holder of such Notes surrendered for conversion. Upon a conversion of Notes, prior to the Qualified Public Company Event, such Person shall execute a joinder to each of the Investor Rights Agreement, the ROFR and Co-Sale Agreement and the Voting Agreement, in each case in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

(j) The Company shall not issue any fractional share of Common Stock upon conversion of the Notes in respect of any Conversion Obligation and shall instead pay cash in lieu of delivering any fractional share of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion of the Notes in respect of any Conversion Obligation based on the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock on the relevant Conversion Date. The Company through the Paying Agent, shall pay cash in lieu of delivering any fractional share of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion of the Notes in respect of any Conversion Obligation (i) on any Physical Notes (A) to Holders holding Physical Notes having an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 or less, by check mailed to the Holders of these Notes at their address as it appears in the Notice of Conversion and (B) to Holders holding Physical Notes having an aggregate principal amount of more than $5,000,000, either by check mailed to each such Holder or, upon application by such Holder to the Note Registrar not later than the date of the Notice of Conversion, by wire transfer in immediately available funds to that Holder’s account within the United States, which application shall remain in effect until the Holder notifies, in writing, the Note Registrar to the contrary or (ii) on any Global Note by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary in effect at that time.

(k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, following the Qualified Public Company Event, the Company shall not issue to any Holder, and no Holder may acquire, a number of shares of Common Stock upon any conversion of Notes hereunder, to the extent that, upon such conversion, the number of shares of Common Stock then “beneficially owned” (as defined in Rules 13(d)-3 and 13(d)-5 under the Exchange Act) by such Holder and its Affiliates and any other persons or entities whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with such Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (including shares held by any “group” of which such Holder is a member, but excluding shares

97

beneficially owned by virtue of the ownership of warrants and other securities or rights to acquire securities, in each case, that have limitations on the right to convert, exercise or purchase similar to the limitation set forth herein) would exceed 9.99% of the total number of shares of Common Stock then issued and outstanding (the “Maximum Percentage”); provided, however, that the Maximum Percentage shall only apply to the extent that the Common Stock is deemed to constitute an “equity security” pursuant to Rule 13d-1(i) promulgated under the Exchange Act; provided, further that, other than in connection with a Successor Major Transaction, any Holder shall be permitted to include in its Notice of Conversion delivered in connection with a Change of Control or Fundamental Change that it is electing to make successive conversions, which conversions shall occur (in each case by written notice from such Holder to the Company) from time to time as determined by such Holder at any time prior to the end of the Successive Conversion Period (each such conversion being subject to the Maximum Percentage). For purposes hereof, “group” has the meaning set forth in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and applicable regulations of the Commission, and the percentage held by any Holder shall be determined in a manner consistent with the provisions of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. For purposes hereof, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holders may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as stated in the Company’s most recent quarterly or annual report filed with the Commission, or any current report filed by the Company with the Commission subsequent thereto. Upon the written request of any Holder, the Company shall, within two (2) Trading Days, confirm orally and in writing to such Holders the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding, and such Holder shall be entitled to rely upon such confirmation for purposes hereof. Neither the Trustee nor the Conversion Agent shall have any obligation to monitor whether any conversion pursuant to this Indenture is in compliance with the foregoing provisions or the requirements of the Exchange Act, and shall have no obligation to monitor the shares of Common Stock held or to be held by any Holder.

Section 14.04 [Reserved].

Section 14.05 Adjustment of Conversion Rate. The Conversion Rate (other than the Change of Control Conversion Rate) shall be adjusted from time to time by the Company if any of the following events occurs, except that the Company shall not make any adjustments to the Conversion Rate if Holders of the Notes participate (other than in the case of (x) a share split or share combination or (y) a tender or exchange offer), at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock and solely as a result of holding the Notes, in any of the transactions described in this Section 14.05, without having to convert their Notes, as if they held a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate, multiplied by the principal amount (expressed in thousands) of Notes held by such Holder (including, for the avoidance of doubt, pursuant to the rights granted to Holders under Section 4.24 of this Indenture).

98

(a) If the Company exclusively issues shares of Common Stock as a dividend or distribution on shares of the Common Stock, or if the Company effects a share split or share combination, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

where,

CR0 = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date of such dividend or distribution, or immediately prior to the open of business on the Effective Date of such share split or share combination, as applicable;

CR’ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date;

OS₀ = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date (before giving effect to any such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination); and

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

Any adjustment made under this Section 14.05(a) shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution, or immediately after the open of business on the Effective Date for such share split or share combination, as applicable. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this Section 14.05(a) is declared but not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors of the Company determines not to pay such dividend or distribution, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

(b) If the Company issues to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock any rights, options or warrants (other than pursuant to a shareholder rights plan) entitling them, for a period of not more than 45 calendar days after the announcement date of such issuance, to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Common Stock at a price per share that is less than (i) with respect to an issuance for which the announcement of such issuance occurs on or before the 10th Trading Day immediately following the Qualified Public Company Event, the average of the fair market value on each applicable Trading Day of one share of Common Stock (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company after consultation with a reputable independent investment bank, independent valuation firm or other qualified financial institution selected by the Company, except that to the extent Disputing Holders dispute such fair market values in writing to the Company (with a copy to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee)) on or before the 20th Business Day after receipt of such good faith determination of the Board of Directors of the Company, such fair market values shall be mutually determined by the Company and the Disputing Holders, and if the Company and the Disputing Holders are unable to reach agreement, such fair market values shall be determined by an independent nationally recognized investment bank selected by the Company and the Disputing Holders and delivered to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) within 30 Business Days following such issuance) for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance or (ii) with respect to an issuance for which the announcement of such issuance occurs after the 10th Trading Day immediately following the Qualified Public Company Event the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance, the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

99

where,

CR0 = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance;

CR’ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date;

OS₀ = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date;

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

Y = the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, divided by (i) with respect to an issuance for which the announcement of such issuance occurs on or before the 10th Trading Day immediately following the Qualified Public Company Event, the average of the fair market value on each applicable Trading Day of one share of Common Stock (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company after consultation with a reputable independent investment bank, independent valuation firm or other qualified financial institution selected by the Company, except that to the extent Disputing Holders dispute such fair market values in writing to the Company (with a copy to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee)) on or before the 20th Business Day after receipt of such good faith determination of the Board of Directors of the Company, such fair market values shall be mutually determined by the Company and the Disputing Holders, and if the Company and the Disputing Holders are unable to reach agreement, such fair market values shall be determined by an independent nationally recognized investment bank selected by the Company and the Disputing Holders and delivered to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) within 30 Business Days following such issuance) over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance and (ii) with respect to an issuance for which the announcement of such issuance occurs after the 10th Trading Day immediately following the Qualified Public Company Event, the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of the issuance of such rights, options or warrants.

Any increase made under this Section 14.05(b) shall be made successively whenever any such rights, options or warrants are issued and shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance. To the extent that shares of the Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights, options or warrants, the Conversion

100

Rate shall be decreased to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the increase with respect to the issuance of such rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered. If such rights, options or warrants are not so issued, or if no such rights, options or warrants are exercised prior to their expiration, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance had not occurred.

For purposes of this Section 14.05(b), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle the holders of Common Stock to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Common Stock at a price per share that is less than such average of the Last Reported Sale Prices for the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance or such average of the fair market value on each applicable Trading Day of one share of Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement for such issuance, as the case may be, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise or conversion thereof, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company.

(c) If the Company distributes shares of its Capital Stock, evidences of its Indebtedness, other assets or property of the Company or rights, options or warrants to acquire shares of its Capital Stock or other securities, to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, excluding (i) dividends, distributions or issuances as to which an adjustment was effected pursuant to Section 14.05(a), Section 14.05(b) or Section 14.05(e), (ii) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash as to which the provisions set for in Section 14.05(d) shall apply, (iii) any dividends or distributions of Reference Property in exchange for Common Stock in connection with any transaction described in Section 14.08, (iv) except as otherwise provided in Section 14.12, rights issued pursuant to a shareholder rights plan adopted by the Company and (v) Spin-Offs as to which the provisions set forth below in this Section 14.05(c) shall apply (any of such shares of Capital Stock, evidences of Indebtedness, other assets or property or rights, options or warrants to acquire shares of Capital Stock or other securities, the “Distributed Property”), then the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

where,

CR₀ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;

CR’ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date;

101

SP₀ = (i) with respect to a distribution that has a Ex-Dividend Date that occurs on or before the 10th Trading Day immediately succeeding the Qualified Public Company Event, the average of the fair market value on each applicable Trading Day of one share of Common Stock (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company after consultation with a reputable independent investment bank, independent valuation firm or other qualified financial institution selected by the Company, except that to the extent Disputing Holders dispute such fair market values in writing to the Company (with a copy to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee)) on or before the 20th Business Day after receipt of such good faith determination of the Board of Directors of the Company, such fair market values shall be mutually determined by the Company and the Disputing Holders, and if the Company and the Disputing Holders are unable to reach agreement, such fair market values shall be determined by an independent nationally recognized investment bank selected by the Company and the Disputing Holders and delivered to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) within 30 Business Days following such issuance) over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution or (ii) with respect to a distribution that has a Ex-Dividend Date that occurs after the 10th Trading Day immediately succeeding the Qualified Public Company Event, the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; and

FMV = the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company) of the Distributed Property distributed with respect to each outstanding share of the Common Stock on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution.

Any increase made under the portion of this Section 14.05(c) above shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution. If such distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “FMV” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP₀” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder of a Note shall receive, in respect of each $1,000 (or if a PIK Payment has been made, $1.00) principal amount thereof, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock receive the Distributed Property, the amount and kind of Distributed Property such Holder would have received if such Holder owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Ex-Dividend Date for the distribution. If the Board of Directors of the Company determines the “FMV” (as defined above) of any distribution for purposes of this Section 14.05(c) by reference to the actual or when-issued trading market for any securities, it shall in doing so consider the prices in such market over the same period used in computing the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution.

With respect to an adjustment pursuant to this Section 14.05(c) where there has been a payment of a dividend or other distribution on the Common Stock of shares of Capital Stock of any class or series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to a Subsidiary or other business unit of the Company, that are, or, when issued, will be, listed or admitted for trading on a U.S. national securities exchange (a “Spin-Off”), the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

102

where,

CR₀ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the end of the Valuation Period;

CR’ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the end of the Valuation Period;

FMV₀ = the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the shares of Capital Stock or similar equity interest distributed to holders of the Common Stock applicable to one share of the Common Stock (determined by reference to the definition of Last Reported Sale Price as set forth in Section 1.01 as if references therein to Common Stock were to such Capital Stock or similar equity interest) over the first 10 consecutive Trading Day period after, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date of the Spin-Off (the “Valuation Period”); and

MP₀ = (i) with respect to a distribution that has an Ex-Dividend Date that occurs before the Qualified Public Company Event, the average of the fair market value on each applicable Trading Day of one share of Common Stock (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company after consultation with a reputable independent investment bank, independent valuation firm or other qualified financial institution selected by the Company, except that to the extent Disputing Holders dispute such fair market values in writing to the Company (with a copy to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee)) on or before the 20th Business Day after receipt of such good faith determination of the Board of Directors of the Company, such fair market values shall be mutually determined by the Company and the Disputing Holders, and if the Company and the Disputing Holders are unable to reach agreement, such fair market values shall be determined by an independent nationally recognized investment bank selected by the Company and the Disputing Holders and delivered to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) within 30 Business Days following such issuance) over the Valuation Period or (ii) with respect to a distribution that has an Ex-Dividend Date that occurs on or after the Qualified Public Company Event, the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the Valuation Period.

The increase to the Conversion Rate under the preceding paragraph shall be determined by the Company on, and shall occur at, the last Trading Day of the Valuation Period provided that in respect of any conversion of Notes with a Conversion Date occurring during the Valuation Period, references in the portion of this Section 14.05(c) related to Spin-Offs with respect to 10 consecutive Trading Days shall be deemed to be replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date of such Spin-Off to, but excluding, the Conversion Date in determining the Conversion Rate. If such Spin-Off does not occur, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend distribution had not been declared, effective as of the date on which the Board of Directors of the Company determines not to consummate such Spin-Off.

103

For purposes of this Section 14.05(c) (and subject in all respect to Section 14.12), rights, options or warrants distributed by the Company to all holders of the Common Stock entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Company’s Capital Stock, including Common Stock (either initially or under certain circumstances), which rights, options or warrants, until the occurrence of a specified event or events (“Trigger Event”): (i) are deemed to be transferred with such shares of the Common Stock; (ii) are not exercisable; and (iii) are also issued in respect of future issuances of the Common Stock, shall be deemed not to have been distributed for purposes of this Section 14.05(c) (and no adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 14.05(c) will be required) until the occurrence of the earliest Trigger Event, whereupon such rights, options or warrants shall be deemed to have been distributed and an appropriate adjustment (if any is required) to the Conversion Rate shall be made under this Section 14.05(c). If any such right, option or warrant, including any such existing rights, options or warrants distributed prior to the Issue Date, are subject to events, upon the occurrence of which such rights, options or warrants become exercisable to purchase different securities, evidences of Indebtedness or other assets, then the date of the occurrence of any and each such event shall be deemed to be the date of distribution and Ex-Dividend Date with respect to new rights, options or warrants with such rights (in which case the existing rights, options or warrants shall be deemed to terminate and expire on such date without exercise by any of the holders thereof). In addition, in the event of any distribution (or deemed distribution) of rights, options or warrants, or any Trigger Event or other event (of the type described in the immediately preceding sentence) with respect thereto that was counted for purposes of calculating a distribution amount for which an adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 14.05(c) was made, (1) in the case of any such rights, options or warrants that shall all have been redeemed or purchased without exercise by any holders thereof, upon such final redemption or purchase (x) the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted as if such rights, options or warrants had not been issued and (y) the Conversion Rate shall then again be readjusted to give effect to such distribution, deemed distribution or Trigger Event, as the case may be, as though it were a cash distribution, equal to the per share redemption or purchase price received by a holder or holders of Common Stock with respect to such rights, options or warrants (assuming such holder had retained such rights, options or warrants), made to all holders of Common Stock as of the date of such redemption or purchase, and (2) in the case of such rights, options or warrants that shall have expired or been terminated (or deemed to have expired or been terminated pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence) without exercise by any holders thereof, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted as if such rights, options and warrants had not been issued (to the extent any adjustment to the Conversion Rate was made in connection with such issuance).

For purposes of Section 14.05(a), Section 14.05(b) and this Section 14.05(c), if any dividend or distribution to which this Section 14.05(c) is applicable also includes one or both of:

(A) a dividend or distribution of shares of Common Stock to which Section 14.05(a) is applicable (the “Clause A Distribution”); or

(B) a dividend or distribution of rights, options or warrants to which Section 14.05(b) is applicable (the “Clause B Distribution”),

104

then, in either case, (1) such dividend or distribution, other than the Clause A Distribution and the Clause B Distribution, shall be deemed to be a dividend or distribution to which this Section 14.05(c) is applicable (the “Clause C Distribution”) and any Conversion Rate adjustment required by this Section 14.05(c) with respect to such Clause C Distribution shall then be made, and (2) the Clause A Distribution and Clause B Distribution shall be deemed to immediately follow the Clause C Distribution and any Conversion Rate adjustment required by Section 14.05(a) and Section 14.05(b) with respect thereto shall then be made, except that, if determined by the Company (I) the “Ex-Dividend Date” of the Clause A Distribution and the Clause B Distribution shall be deemed to be the Ex-Dividend Date of the Clause C Distribution and (II) any shares of Common Stock included in the Clause A Distribution or Clause B Distribution shall be deemed not to be “outstanding immediately prior to the close of business on such Record Date or open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date” within the meaning of Section 14.05(a) or “outstanding immediately prior to the close of business on such Ex-Dividend Date” within the meaning of Section 14.05(b).

(d) If any cash dividend or distribution is made to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

where,

CR₀ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;

CR’ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;

SP₀ = (i) with respect to a dividend or distribution that has an Ex-Dividend Date on or prior to the Qualified Public Company Event, the fair market value of one share of Common Stock (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company after consultation with a reputable independent investment bank, independent valuation firm or other qualified financial institution selected by the Company, except that to the extent Disputing Holders dispute such fair market values in writing to the Company (with a copy to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee)) on or before the 20th Business Day after receipt of such good faith determination of the Board of Directors of the Company, such fair market values shall be mutually determined by the Company and the Disputing Holders, and if the Company and the Disputing Holders are unable to reach agreement, such fair market values shall be determined by an independent nationally recognized investment bank selected by the Company and the Disputing Holders and delivered to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) within 30 Business Days following such issuance) on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution or (ii) with respect to a dividend or distribution that has an Ex-Dividend Date after the Qualified Public Company Event, the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution; and

105

C = the amount in cash per share the Company distributes to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock.

Any increase made under this Section 14.05(d) shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution. If such dividend or distribution is not so paid, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased, effective as of the date the Board of Directors of the Company determines not to make or pay such dividend or distribution, to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “C” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP0” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder of a Note shall receive, for each $1,000 (or if a PIK Payment has been made, $1.00) principal amount of Notes, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of shares of the Common Stock, the amount of cash that such Holder would have received if such Holder owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate on the Ex-Dividend Date for such cash dividend or distribution.

(e) [Reserved]

(f) [Reserved]

(g) [Reserved]

(h) Except as stated herein, the Company shall not adjust the Conversion Rate for the issuance of shares of the Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of the Common Stock or the right to purchase shares of the Common Stock or such convertible or exchangeable securities.

(i) In addition to those adjustments required by clauses (a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) of this Section 14.05, and to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to the applicable listing standards of the Relevant Stock Exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed or admitted for trading, the Company from time to time may increase the Conversion Rate by any amount for a period of at least 20 Business Days if the Board of Directors of the Company determines that such increase would be in the Company’s best interest. In addition, to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to the applicable listing standards of the Relevant Stock Exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed or admitted for trading, the Company may (but is not required to) increase the Conversion Rate to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of Common Stock or rights to purchase shares of Common Stock in connection with a dividend or distribution of shares of Common Stock (or rights to acquire shares of Common Stock) or similar event. Whenever the Conversion Rate is increased pursuant to either of the preceding two sentences, the Company shall deliver to the Holder of each Note a notice of the increase at least 15 calendar days prior to the date the increased Conversion Rate takes effect, and such notice shall state the increased Conversion Rate and the period during which it will be in effect.

106

(j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 14, the Conversion Rate shall not be adjusted pursuant to this Article 14:

(i) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on the Company’s securities and the investment of additional optional amounts in shares of Common Stock under any plan;

(ii) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or options or rights to purchase those shares pursuant to any present or future employee, director or consultant benefit plan or program of or assumed by the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries;

(iii) except as set forth in Section 14.05(b) or Section 14.05(c), upon the issuance of any shares of the Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security not described in clause (ii) of this subsection;

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

(v) upon the repurchase of any shares of the Common Stock pursuant to an open-market share repurchase program or other buy-back transaction that is not a tender offer or exchange offer of the kind described in Section 4.25; or

(vi) for accrued and unpaid interest, if any.

All calculations and other determinations under this Article 14 shall be made by the Company and shall be made to the nearest one-ten thousandth (1/10,000th) of a share.

(k) Notwithstanding anything in this Article 14 to the contrary, the Company shall not be required to adjust the Conversion Rate unless the adjustment would result in a change of at least 1% in the then effective Conversion Rate. However, the Company shall carry forward any adjustments to the Conversion Rate that are less than 1% of the Conversion Rate and make all such carried-forward adjustments (i) when the cumulative net effect of all adjustments not yet made will result in a change of at least 1% of the Conversion Rate or (ii) regardless of whether the adjustment (or such cumulative net effect) is less than 1%, (a) on the Conversion Date for any Notes or (b) upon the occurrence of any Fundamental Change that occurs on or after the Qualified Public Company Event.

(l) Whenever the Conversion Rate is adjusted as herein provided, the Company shall promptly file with the Trustee (and the Conversion Agent if not the Trustee) an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the Conversion Rate after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. Unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received such Officer’s Certificate, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any adjustment of the Conversion Rate and may assume without inquiry that the last Conversion Rate of which it has knowledge is still in effect. Promptly after delivery of such certificate, the Company shall prepare a notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Rate setting forth the adjusted Conversion Rate and the date on which each adjustment becomes effective and shall deliver such notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Rate to each Holder. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of any such adjustment.

107

(m) For purposes of this Section 14.05, the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company so long as the Company does not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company, but shall include shares of Common Stock issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock.

Section 14.06 Adjustments of Prices. Whenever any provision of this Indenture requires the Company to calculate the Daily VWAP, Last Reported Sale Prices or the Transaction Price over a span of multiple days, the Board of Directors of the Company shall make appropriate adjustments (to the extent no corresponding adjustment is otherwise made pursuant to Section 14.05) to each to account for any adjustment to the Conversion Rate that becomes effective, or any event requiring an adjustment to the Conversion Rate where the Ex-Dividend Date, Effective Date, or expiration date, as the case may be, of the event occurs, at any time during the period when the Daily VWAP, Last Reported Sale Prices or the Transaction Price are to be calculated.

Section 14.07 Shares to Be Reserved. The Company shall provide, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued shares or shares held in treasury, sufficient shares of Common Stock, and shall at all times (including immediately following any event that causes an adjustment to the Conversion Rate hereunder) maintain a sufficient number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, to provide for conversion of the Notes from time to time as such Notes are presented for conversion (assuming that at the time of computation of such number of shares, all such Notes would be converted by a single Holder, and without giving effect to any limitation that may be imposed by the Maximum Percentage).

Section 14.08 Effect of Recapitalizations, Reclassifications and Changes of the Common Stock.

(a) In the case of:

(i) any recapitalization, reclassification or change of the Common Stock (other than changes resulting from a subdivision or combination or a change of par value or to no par value),

(ii) any consolidation, merger, combination or similar transaction involving the Company,

(iii) any sale, lease or other transfer to a third party of the consolidated assets of the Company and the Company’s Subsidiaries substantially as an entirety, or

(iv) any statutory share exchange,

in each case, as a result of which the Common Stock would be converted into, or exchanged for, stock, other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) (each, a “Specified Corporate Event”), including any Tax Efficiency Reorganization Transaction, then the Company, the Successor Company (if applicable) and the acquiring Person (including, if the applicable Specified Corporate Event is a SPAC Transaction, the SPAC or, if the applicable Specified Corporate Event is a Tax Efficiency Reorganization Transaction, the

108

newly formed holding company), as applicable, shall execute, at or prior to the effective time of the Specified Corporate Event, with the Trustee a supplemental indenture permitted under Section 10.01(n) without the consent of the Holders (which, if the applicable specified Corporate Event is a SPAC Transaction, shall also comply with the requirements of Section 11.03) providing that, at and after the effective time of such Specified Corporate Event, the Holders’ right to convert Notes at the Conversion Rate into Common Stock shall (i) in the case of a Specified Corporate Event (other than a SPAC Transaction or a Tax Efficiency Reorganization Transaction), be changed into a right to convert such principal amount of Notes into the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) that a holder of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate (which will be the applicable Change of Control Conversion Rate if such Specified Corporate Event is also a Change of Control) immediately prior to such Specified Corporate Event would have owned or been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Specified Corporate Event (for the avoidance of doubt, without giving effect to Section 14.03(k)), (ii) in the case of a Specified Corporate Event that is a SPAC Transaction, into Common Stock of the SPAC equal to the Conversion Rate (such property referred to in clause (i) or (ii), the “Reference Property,” with each “unit of Reference Property” meaning the kind and amount of Reference Property that a holder of one share of Common Stock is entitled to receive) and (iii) in the case of a Specified Corporate Event that is a Tax Efficiency Reorganization Transaction, remain unchanged, except that references to the Company’s Common Stock in the definition of “Common Stock” shall instead refer to the equivalent shares of common stock of the newly formed holding company (for which shares of the Company’s Common Stock were exchanged) and other applicable references herein shall be modified, mutatis mutandis, to reflect the new holding company structure (with the Company remaining the issuer of the Notes and the Notes becoming convertible into shares of common stock of the holding company).

If the Specified Corporate Event other than a SPAC Transaction causes the Common Stock to be converted into, or exchanged for, the right to receive more than a single type of consideration (determined based in part upon any form of equityholder election), then (i) the Reference Property into which the Notes will be convertible shall be deemed to be the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration actually received by the holders of Common Stock, and (ii) the unit of Reference Property for purposes of the immediately preceding paragraph shall refer to the consideration referred to in clause (i) attributable to one share of Common Stock. If the holders of the Common Stock receive only cash in such Specified Corporate Event, then for all conversions for which the relevant Conversion Date occurs after the Effective Date of such Specified Corporate Event (A) the consideration due upon conversion of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes (or if a PIK Payment has been made, the consideration due upon conversion of each $1.00 principal amount of Notes) shall be solely cash in an amount equal to (1) if no PIK Payment has been made, the Conversion Rate in effect on the Conversion Date (which will be the applicable Change of Control Conversion Rate if such Specified Corporate Event is also a Change of Control) or (2) if a PIK Payment has been made, the quotient of (a) the Conversion Rate in effect on the Conversion Date (which will be the applicable Change of Control Conversion Rate if such Specified Corporate Event is also a Change of Control) and (b) 1,000, in each case, multiplied by the price paid per share of Common Stock in such Specified Corporate Event and (B) the Company shall satisfy the Conversion Obligation by paying such cash amount to converting Holders on the second Business Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date. The Company shall notify Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) of such weighted average as soon as practicable after such determination is made.

109

If the Reference Property in respect of any such Specified Corporate Event includes Capital Stock, such supplemental indenture described in the second immediately preceding paragraph providing that the Notes will be convertible into Reference Property shall provide for anti-dilution and other adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Article 14. If, in the case of any Specified Corporate Event, the Reference Property includes shares of stock, securities or other property or assets (other than cash and/or cash equivalents) of a Person that is a party to the transaction other than the Company or the Successor Company, as the case may be, in such Specified Corporate Event, then such supplemental indenture shall also be executed by such other Person and shall contain such additional provisions to protect the interests of the Holders of the Notes as the Board of Directors of the Company shall reasonably consider necessary by reason of the foregoing, including the provisions providing for the redemption rights set forth in Article 13, and the repurchase rights set forth in Article 15.

(b) When the Company executes a supplemental indenture pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 14.08, the Company shall promptly file with the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate briefly stating the reasons therefor, the kind or amount of cash, securities or property or asset that will comprise a unit of Reference Property after any such Specified Corporate Event, any adjustment to be made with respect thereto and that all conditions precedent have been complied with and an Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent to the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture have been complied with, and shall promptly deliver notice thereof to all Holders. The Company shall cause notice of the execution of such supplemental indenture to be delivered to each Holder within 20 calendar days after execution thereof. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of such supplemental indenture.

(c) The Company shall not become a party to any Specified Corporate Event unless its terms are consistent with this Section 14.08. None of the foregoing provisions shall affect the right of a Holder to convert its Notes into shares of Common Stock, as set forth in Section 14.01, Section 14.02 and Section 14.03, prior to the Effective Date of such Specified Corporate Event.

(d) The above provisions of this Section 14.08 shall similarly apply to successive Specified Corporate Events.

Section 14.09 Certain Covenants.

(a) The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of Notes will be fully paid and non-assessable by the Company and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof.

110

(b) The Company covenants that, if any shares of Common Stock to be provided for the purpose of conversion of Notes hereunder require registration with or approval of any governmental authority under any federal or state law before such shares of Common Stock may be validly issued upon conversion, the Company will, to the extent then permitted by the rules and interpretations of the Commission, secure such registration or approval, as the case may be.

(c) Following the Qualified Public Company Event, the Company further covenants that if at any time the Common Stock shall be listed on any national securities exchange or automated quotation system, the Company shall list and keep listed, so long as the Common Stock shall be so listed on such exchange or automated quotation system, any Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes.

(d) In connection with a SPAC Transaction, each Holder shall be required to agree that, upon consummation of the SPAC Transaction, such Holder will not convert its Notes (except in connection with a Change of Control or Fundamental Change) or take any action described in clause (i) or (ii) of Section 14.09(e) for a period equal to the lesser of (i) one hundred eighty (180) days following the closing of such SPAC Transaction and (ii) the length of the shortest “lock-up” period agreed to by any investor in the SPAC Transaction Financings (which shall be deemed to be zero (0) in the event any investor in the SPAC Transaction Financings is not required to agree to any “lock-up”).

(e) Each Holder hereby agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of the managing underwriter, during the period commencing on the date of the final prospectus relating to the registration by the Company of shares of its Common Stock or any other equity securities under the Securities Act on a registration statement on Form S-1, and ending on the date specified by the Company and the managing underwriter (such period not to exceed 180 days in the case of the Company’s first underwritten public offering of its Common Stock under the Securities Act (the “IPO”), or such other period as may be requested by the Company or an underwriter to accommodate regulatory restrictions on (1) the publication or other distribution of research reports and (2) analyst recommendations and opinions, including, but not limited to, the restrictions contained in applicable FINRA or NYSE rules, or any successor provisions or amendments thereto) (such period, the “Lock-Up Period”), (i) lend; offer; pledge; sell; contract to sell; sell any option or contract to purchase; purchase any option or contract to sell; grant any option, right, or warrant to purchase; or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable (directly or indirectly) for Common Stock (“Registrable Securities”) held immediately prior to such registration or (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of such securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or other securities, in cash, or otherwise. The Company shall deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee and the Holders no later than the interest record date prior to the Maturity Date of any Lock-Up Period and related extension of the Maturity Date. The foregoing provisions of this Section 14.09(e) shall apply only to the IPO, shall not apply to the sale of any shares to an underwriter pursuant to an underwriting agreement, or the transfer of any shares to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the Holder or the immediate family of the Holder, provided that the trustee of the trust agrees to be bound in writing by the restrictions set forth herein, and provided further that any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value, and shall be applicable to the Holders only if all officers and

111

directors are subject to the same restrictions and the Company uses commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a similar agreement from all stockholders individually owning more than 1% stockholders of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock (after giving effect to conversion into Common Stock of all outstanding Preferred Stock of the Company). In the event that a release is granted to any such officer, director or greater than 1% stockholder other than the Holders relating to the lock-up restrictions set forth above for shares of the Common Stock, the same percentage of shares of the Common Stock held by the Holders or issuable to the Holders upon conversion of the Notes shall be immediately and fully released on the same terms from any remaining lock-up restrictions set forth herein. The underwriters in connection with such registration are intended third-party beneficiaries of this Section 14.09(e) and shall have the right, power, and authority to enforce the provisions hereof as though they were a party hereto. The foregoing provisions of this Section 14.09(e) shall not apply to a Direct Listing and shall only be applicable to the IPO if the Company has not already completed a Direct Listing.

In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Registrable Securities of each Holder (and the shares or securities of every other person subject to the foregoing restriction) until the end of such period.

Each Holder agrees that a legend reading substantially as follows shall be placed on all certificates representing all capital stock of the Company of each Holder (and the shares or securities of every other person subject to the restriction contained in this Section 14.09(e)):

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO A LOCK-UP PERIOD AFTER THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE ISSUER’S REGISTRATION STATEMENT FILED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AS SET FORTH IN AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE ORIGINAL HOLDER OF THESE SECURITIES, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED AT THE ISSUER’S PRINCIPAL OFFICE. SUCH LOCK-UP PERIOD IS BINDING ON TRANSFEREES OF THESE SHARES.”

(f) Each Holder hereby agrees that it will assess in advance whether its acquisition, sale, or transfer of any voting shares of the Company would be subject to advance reporting and waiting period requirements under any Antitrust Law and if so it will not acquire, sell, or transfer any voting shares of the Company until the required filings have been made under the Antitrust Laws and the required waiting period expirations or terminations and the required approvals under the Antitrust Laws have been obtained.

(g) The Trustee shall have no obligation to monitor each Holder’s compliance with this Section 14.09.

Section 14.10 Responsibility of Trustee and Conversion Agent. The Trustee and any other Conversion Agent shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder to determine whether the Notes are then-convertible, the Conversion Rate (or any adjustment thereto) or whether any facts exist that may require any adjustment (including any increase) of the Conversion Rate, or with respect to the nature or extent or calculation of any such adjustment when made, or with respect to the method employed, or herein or in any supplemental indenture

112

provided to be employed, in making the same. The Trustee and any other Conversion Agent shall not be accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any shares of Common Stock, or of any securities, property or cash that may at any time be issued or delivered upon the conversion of any Note; and the Trustee and any other Conversion Agent make no representations with respect thereto. Neither the Trustee nor any Conversion Agent shall be responsible for any failure of the Company to issue, transfer or deliver any shares of Common Stock or stock certificates or other securities or property or cash upon the surrender of any Note for the purpose of conversion or to comply with any of the duties, responsibilities or covenants of the Company contained herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither the Trustee nor any Conversion Agent shall be under any responsibility to determine the correctness of any provisions contained in any supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to Section 14.08 relating either to the kind or amount of shares of stock or securities or property (including cash) receivable by Holders upon the conversion of their Notes after any event referred to in such Section 14.08 or to any adjustment to be made with respect thereto, but, subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, may accept (without any independent investigation) as conclusive evidence of the correctness of any such provisions, and shall be protected in relying upon, the Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel (which the Company shall be obligated to file with the Trustee prior to the execution of any such supplemental indenture) with respect thereto. Neither the Trustee nor the Conversion Agent shall be responsible for determining whether any event contemplated by Section 14.01 or 14.02 has occurred that makes the Notes eligible for conversion until the Company has delivered to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent the notices referred to in Section 14.01 or Section 14.03, as the case may be, with respect to the commencement of such conversion rights, on which notices the Trustee and the Conversion Agent may conclusively rely, and the Company agrees to deliver such notices to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent immediately after the occurrence of any such event or at such other times as shall be provided for in Section 14.01, Section 14.02 and Section 14.11.

Section 14.11 Notice to Holders Prior to Certain Actions. In case of any:

(a) action by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries that would require an adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 14.05 or Section 14.12;

(b) Specified Corporate Event; or

(c) voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company;

then, in each case (unless notice of such event is otherwise required pursuant to another provision of this Indenture) and to the extent applicable, the Company shall cause to be filed with the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) and to be delivered to each Holder at its address appearing on the Note Register, as promptly as practicable but in any event at least 20 days prior to the applicable date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (i) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such action by the Company or, if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of Common Stock of record are to be determined for the purposes of such action by the Company or (ii) the date on which such Specified Corporate Event, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is expected to become effective or occur, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their Common Stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such Specified Corporate Event, dissolution, liquidation or winding up. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of such action by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, Specified Corporate Event, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up.

113

Section 14.12 Shareholder Rights Plans. If the Company has a shareholder rights plan in effect upon conversion of the Notes, each share of Common Stock, if any, issued upon such conversion shall be entitled to receive the appropriate number of rights, if any, and the certificates representing the Common Stock issued upon such conversion shall bear such legends, if any, in each case as may be provided by the terms of any such shareholder rights plan, as the same may be amended from time to time. However, if, prior to any conversion of Notes, the rights have separated from the shares of Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of the applicable shareholder rights plan, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted at the time of separation as if the Company distributed to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock Distributed Property as provided in Section 14.05(c), subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights.

Section 15.07 Repurchase Procedures. (a) Repurchases of Notes under Sections 15.02 and 15.03, as applicable, shall be made, at the option of the Holder thereof, upon:

(i) delivery to the Paying Agent by a Holder (x) of a duly completed notice substantially in the form of the Form of Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice”) or (y) no later than the date that is at least three (3) calendar days prior to the expected effectiveness of a Change of Control, of a duly completed notice substantially in the form of the Form of Change of Control Repurchase Notice (the “Change of Control Repurchase Notice”), if the Notes are Physical Notes, or in compliance with the Depositary’s procedures for surrendering interests in Global Notes, if the Notes are Global Notes, in each case, on or before the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding (x) with respect to a repurchase pursuant to Section 15.02, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase Expiration Time”) or (y) with respect to a repurchase pursuant to Section 15.03, the Change of Control Repurchase Date (the “Change of Control Repurchase Expiration Time”), as applicable; and

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Notes may be repurchased by the Company on any date at the option of the Holders upon a Fundamental Change or Change of Control, as applicable, if the principal amount of the Notes has been accelerated, and such acceleration has not been rescinded, on or prior to such date (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price or Change of Control Repurchase Price, as the case may be, with respect to such Notes). The Paying Agent will promptly return to the respective Holders thereof any Physical Notes held by it during the acceleration of the Notes (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price or Change of Control Repurchase Price, as the case may be, with respect to such Notes), or any instructions for book-entry transfer of the Notes in compliance with the procedures of the Depositary shall be deemed to have been cancelled, and, upon such return or cancellation, as the case may be, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice or Change of Control Repurchase Price with respect thereto shall be deemed to have been withdrawn.

Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 16.05, the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally unconditionally and irrevocably Guarantee, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, to each Holder, the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and their respective successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the Obligations of the Company hereunder or thereunder, that: (a) the principal of and premium, if any, and interest, if any, on the Notes (including interest accruing after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy, or the commencement of any insolvency, reorganization or like proceedings), shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration, required purchase, redemption or repurchase or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on premium, if any, and interest, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Company to the Holders, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent hereunder or thereunder shall be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (b) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that the 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, required purchase, redemption or repurchase or otherwise (the “Note Guarantee”). Failing payment when due, subject to any applicable grace period, of any amount so Guaranteed or any performance so Guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, legality, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company or any Guarantor, if any, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of the Guarantor. The Guarantors hereby waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, 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 or another Guarantor, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenant that the Note Guarantee shall not be discharged except by payment in full or conversion in full of the Notes in accordance with this Indenture. If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company or any of the Guarantors, or any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law or other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or any of the Guarantors, any amount paid either to the Trustee or to such Holder, the Note Guarantees, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect. Each Guarantor 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. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations Guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 for the purposes of the Note Guarantees, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations Guaranteed hereby and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantor for the purpose of the Note Guarantees. The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impact the rights of the Trustee or the Holders under the Note Guarantees.

Section 16.02 Execution and Delivery of Note Guarantee. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its execution and delivery of any supplemental indenture substantially in the form of Exhibit C shall evidence its Note Guarantee set forth in Section 16.01 without the need for notation on the Notes.

121

Section 16.03 Guarantors may Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms. Except as otherwise provided in Section 16.04, no Guarantor (other than a Guarantor whose Note Guarantee is to be released in accordance with Section 16.04) may sell, convey, assign, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets, in one transaction or any series of transactions to, or consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving Person) another Person unless:

(a)

(i) the resulting, surviving or transferee Person is the Guarantor; or

(ii) if not the Guarantor, such resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the “Successor Guarantor”) shall be a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof, the District of Columbia or any Designated Country;

(b) in any such transaction where the Guarantor is not the resulting, surviving or transferee Person, the Successor Guarantor unconditionally assumes all of the Guarantor’s obligations under its Note Guarantee and this Indenture pursuant to a supplemental indenture in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee;

(c) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under this Indenture; and

(d) in any transaction where the Guarantor is not the surviving or transferee Person, the Guarantor shall have delivered to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel, each stating that the consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, assignment, transfer, lease or other disposition and such supplemental indenture complies with this Indenture and all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to such transaction have been complied with.

For purposes of this Section 16.03, the sale, conveyance, transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of one or more Subsidiaries of the Guarantor to another Person that is not the Guarantor or a Subsidiary of the Guarantor, which properties and assets, if held by the Guarantor instead of such Subsidiaries, would constitute all or substantially all of the consolidated properties and assets of the Guarantor and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, shall be deemed to be the sale, conveyance, transfer or lease by the Guarantor of all or substantially all of its consolidated properties and assets to another Person.

In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance and, if required by this Indenture, upon the assumption by the Successor Guarantor, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the Note Guarantee and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be performed by the Guarantor, such Successor Guarantor will succeed to and, except in the case of a lease of all or substantially all of the consolidated properties or assets of

122

the Guarantor and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, shall be substituted for the Guarantor, with the same effect as if it had been named herein as the Guarantor, and the Guarantor (except in the case of a lease of all or substantially all of the consolidated properties or assets of the Guarantor and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole) shall be discharged from the obligations of the Guarantor under the Notes and this Indenture. The Note Guarantee so evidenced will in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Note Guarantee theretofore executed in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though such Note Guarantee had been executed at the Issue Date.

Section 16.04 Release of Note Guarantees. In the event of:

(a) the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture in accordance with Article 3;

(b) the liquidation or dissolution of any Guarantor; or

(c) a consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance covered by the first paragraph of Section 16.03 where the Guarantor is not the resulting, surviving or transferee Person,

such Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released and relieved of any obligations under its Note Guarantee and the Indenture Documents. Upon delivery by the Company to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent of an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such satisfaction and discharge or liquidation or dissolution (in each case, to the extent applicable) permitted by this Indenture has occurred, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall execute any documents reasonably requested by the Company in order to evidence the release of any Guarantor from its obligations under its Note Guarantee and the Indenture Documents.

Any Guarantor not released from its obligations under its Note Guarantee shall remain liable for the full amount of principal of, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on the Notes and for the other obligations of any Guarantor under the Indenture Documents as provided in this Article 16.

Section 16.05 Limitation on Guarantor Liability. For purposes hereof, the Guarantor’s liability shall be that amount from time to time equal to the aggregate liability of the Guarantor under its Note Guarantee, but shall be limited to the lesser of (a) the aggregate amount of the Obligations of the Company under the Indenture Documents and (b) the amount, if any, which would not have (A) rendered the Guarantor “insolvent” (as such term is defined in the federal Bankruptcy Law and in the Debtor and Creditor Law of the State of New York), (B) left it with unreasonably small capital at the time its Note Guarantee was entered into, or at the time the Guarantor incurred liability thereunder, after giving effect to the incurrence of existing Indebtedness immediately prior to such time or (C) left the Guarantor with debts beyond the Guarantor’s ability to pay as such debts mature; provided that, it shall be a presumption in any lawsuit or other proceeding in which the Guarantor is a party that the amount Guaranteed pursuant to its Note Guarantee is the amount set forth in subsection (a) above unless any creditor, or representative of creditors of the Guarantor, or debtor in possession or trustee in bankruptcy of the Guarantor, otherwise proves in such a lawsuit or other proceeding that the aggregate liability of the Guarantor is limited to the amount set forth in subsection (b) above.

123

Section 16.06 “Trustee” to Include Paying Agent. In case at any time any Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall have been appointed by the Company and be then acting hereunder, the term “Trustee” as used in this Article 16 shall in such case (unless the context shall otherwise require) be construed as extending to and including such Paying Agent within its meaning as fully and for all intents and purposes as if such Paying Agent were named in this Article 16 in place of the Trustee.

ARTICLE 17

COLLATERAL AND SECURITY

Section 17.01 Security Documents.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Collateral Agent shall have no discretion under this Indenture or the Security Documents and whenever reference is made in this Indenture to any action by, consent, designation, specification, requirement or approval of, notice, request or other communication from, or other direction given or action to be undertaken or to be (or not to be) suffered or omitted by the Collateral Agent or to any election, decision, opinion, acceptance, use of judgment, expression or satisfaction or other exercise of discretion, rights or remedies to be made (or not to be made) by the Collateral Agent, it is understood in all cases that the Collateral Agent shall not be required to make or give and shall be fully protected in not making or giving any determination, consent, approval, request or direction without the written direction of the Holders of the Minimum Principal Amount of the then outstanding Notes, the Trustee or the Company, as applicable. This provision is intended solely for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and its successors and permitted assigns and is not intended to and will not entitle the other parties hereto to any defense, claim or counterclaim, or confer any rights or benefits on any party hereto. Further, the Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights and powers under this Indenture at the request or direction of any Holders, unless such Holder shall have offered to the Collateral Agent security and indemnity satisfactory to the Collateral Agent against any loss, cost, liability or expense which might be incurred by the Collateral Agent in compliance with such direction or request and then only to the extent required by the terms of this Indenture.

(b) No provision of the Indenture Documents shall require the Collateral Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or thereunder or to take or omit to take any action hereunder or thereunder or take any action at the request or direction of Holders or the Trustee if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds is not assured to it. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Indenture Documents, in the event the Collateral Agent is entitled or required to commence an action to foreclose or otherwise exercise its remedies to acquire control or possession of the Collateral, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to commence any such action or exercise any remedy or take any such other action if

128

the Collateral Agent has determined that the Collateral Agent may incur personal liability as a result of the presence at, or release on or from, the Collateral or such property, of any hazardous substances unless the Collateral Agent has received security or indemnity from the Holders in an amount and in a form satisfactory to the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion, protecting the Collateral Agent from all such liability. The Collateral Agent shall at any time be entitled to cease taking any action described in this clause if it no longer reasonably deems any indemnity, security or undertaking from the Company or the Holders to be sufficient.

(c) So long as an Event of Default is not continuing, the Company may direct the Collateral Agent in writing in connection with any action required or permitted by this Indenture or the Security Documents. During the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee, or the requisite Holders pursuant to Section 6.09, may direct the Collateral Agent in connection with any action required or permitted by this Indenture or the Security Documents.

(d) The Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, unless the Collateral Agent shall have received written notice from the Trustee, a Holder or the Company referring to this Indenture, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” The Collateral Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Trustee or the Holders of the Minimum Principal Amount of the Notes then outstanding subject to this Article 17.

Section 17.09 Authorization of Receipt of Funds by the Trustee Under the Security Documents. The Collateral Agent is authorized to receive any funds for the benefit of itself, the Trustee and the Holders distributed under the Security Documents and, to the extent not prohibited hereunder, to make further distributions of such funds to itself, the Trustee and the Holders in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.05 and the other provisions of this Indenture. Such funds shall be held on deposit by the Trustee without investment (unless otherwise provided in this Indenture), and the Trustee shall have no liability for interest or other compensation thereon.

Section 17.10 Action by the Collateral Agent. Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income thereon or as to preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Collateral Agent accords its own property and shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral, by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or bailee selected by the Collateral Agent in good faith and with reasonable care.

Neither the Trustee nor Collateral Agent shall be responsible for (i) the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral; (ii) the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens intended to be created by this Indenture or the Security Documents in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder (except to the extent such action or omission constitutes

129

gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Collateral Agent (as determined by a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction not subject to appeal)); (iii) the sufficiency of the Collateral; (iv) the validity of the title of the Company and the Guarantors to any of the Collateral; (v) insuring the Collateral; (vi) any action taken or omitted to be taken by it under or in connection with this Indenture or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final nonappealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction) or (vii) any recital, statement, representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the Company or any Affiliate of the Company, or any officer or Affiliate thereof, contained in the Indenture Documents or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Collateral Agent under or in connection with, the Indenture Documents. The Company and the Guarantors shall be responsible for the maintenance of the Collateral and for the payment of taxes, charges or assessments upon the Collateral. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall require the Collateral Agent or the Trustee to file financing statements or continuation statements, or be responsible for maintaining the security interests purported to be created and described herein (except for the safe custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder or under any other Indenture Document) and such responsibility shall be solely that of the Company. The Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to the Trustee or any Holder to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, the Indenture Documents or to inspect the properties, books, or records of the Company or any of its Affiliates.

Section 17.11 Compensation and Indemnity.

(a) The Company shall pay to the Collateral Agent from time to time compensation as shall be agreed to in writing by the Company and the Collateral Agent for its acceptance of this Indenture, the Security Documents and services hereunder. The Company shall reimburse the Collateral Agent promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it in connection with Collateral Agent’s duties under the Indenture Documents, including the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Collateral Agent’s agents and counsel, except any disbursement, advance or expense as may be attributable to the Collateral Agent’s willful misconduct or gross negligence.

(b) The Company and the Guarantors shall, jointly and severally, indemnify the Collateral Agent and any predecessor Collateral Agent and each of their agents, employees, officers and directors for, and hold them harmless against, any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses (including the fees and expenses of counsel to the Collateral Agent and any environmental liabilities) incurred by it arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture and the Security Documents, including, without limitation (i) any claim relating to the grant to the Collateral Agent of any Lien in any property or assets of the Company or the Guarantors and (ii) the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture and the Security Documents against the Company and the Guarantors (including this Section 17.11) and defending itself against or investigating any claim (whether asserted by the Company, the Guarantors, any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder or thereunder, except to the extent any such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense shall have been determined by a court

130

of competent jurisdiction to have been attributable to its willful misconduct or gross negligence. The Collateral Agent shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Collateral Agent to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company or the Guarantors of their obligations hereunder, except to the extent the Company or the Guarantors are materially prejudiced thereby. At the Collateral Agent’s sole discretion, the Company and the Guarantors shall defend any claim or threatened claim asserted against the Collateral Agent, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, and the Collateral Agent shall cooperate in the defense at the Company’s and the Guarantors’ expense. The Collateral Agent may have one separate U.S. counsel (and one separate foreign counsel in each applicable non-U.S. jurisdiction) and the Company and the Guarantors shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company and the Guarantors need not pay for any settlement made without their consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(c) The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to all rights, privileges, immunities and protections of the Trustee set forth in this Indenture whether or not expressly stated therein, including but not limited to the right to be compensated, reimbursed and indemnified under Section 7.06, in the acceptance, execution, delivery and performance of the Security Documents as though fully set forth therein. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in the Indenture Documents, the Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth in the Indenture Documents to which the Collateral Agent is a party, nor shall the Collateral Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with the Trustee, any Holder or the Company, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into the Indenture Documents or otherwise exist against the Collateral Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Indenture with reference to the Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

(d) The obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under this Section 17.11 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the resignation, removal or replacement of the Collateral Agent.

Section 17.12 Post-Closing Collateral. To the extent the Company and the Guarantors are not able to execute and deliver all Security Documents required in connection with the creation and perfection of the Liens of the Collateral Agent on the Collateral (to the extent required by the Indenture Documents) on or prior to the later of Issue Date or the deadline for delivery hereunder, the Company and the Guarantors will use their commercially reasonable efforts to have all security interests in the Collateral duly created and enforceable and perfected, to the extent required by the Indenture Documents, within the time period required by the Security Agreement.

CUSIP No. [_________]

Barkbox, Inc., a corporation duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Company,” which term includes any successor corporation or other entity under the Indenture referred to on the reverse hereof), for value received hereby promises to pay to [CEDE & CO.]³ [_______]⁴, or registered assigns, on the Maturity Date, the principal sum [as set forth in the “Schedule of Exchanges of Notes” attached hereto in accordance with the rules and procedures of the Depositary]⁵ [of $[_______]]⁶, which amount, taken together with the principal amounts of all other outstanding Notes, shall not exceed $75,000,000, subject to any PIK Payments permitted by the Indenture that are made pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i)(2) thereof (and except for (i) Notes authenticated and delivered upon registration or transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of other Notes to the extent expressly permitted by the Indenture and (ii) Additional Notes issued in accordance with the terms of the Indenture), and interest thereon as set forth below.

This Note shall bear interest at the rate (the “Interest Rate”) of 5.50% per year from November [•], 2020, or from the most recent date to which interest had been paid or provided for to, but excluding, the next scheduled Interest Payment Date until the Maturity Date. In the event that a Qualified Public Company Event has not been consummated on or prior to November [•], 2021 (such date, the “Step Up Trigger”), the Interest Rate shall increase to 8.00% on each Interest Payment Date commencing with, and including, the first Interest Payment Date following the Step Up Trigger.

Interest is payable monthly in arrears on each December 1, commencing on December 1, 2021, to Holders of record at the close of business on the preceding November 15 (whether or not such record date is a Business Day), respectively. Accrued interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year composed of twelve 30-day months or, in the case of a partial month, the actual number of days elapsed over a 30-day month and shall be compounded annually.

Except as set forth below, interest will be payable entirely in PIK Interest. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the payment of accrued interest shall be made solely in cash, (A) in connection with any redemption of Notes as described under Section 13.02 of the

A-3

Indenture, (1) with respect to all Notes, if the related Change of Control Redemption Date is after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the Scheduled Trading Day immediately following the date on which the corresponding interest payment is made or (2) solely with respect to the Notes to be redeemed, if the Change of Control Redemption Date is on any other date, (B) in connection with any repurchase of Notes as described under Section 15.02 and Section 15.03 of the Indenture, (1) with respect to all Notes, if the related Fundamental Change Repurchase Date or Change of Control Repurchase Date, as applicable, is after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the Scheduled Trading Day immediately following the date on which the corresponding interest payment is made or (2) solely with respect to the Notes to be repurchased, if the related Fundamental Change Repurchase Date or Change of Control Repurchase Date, as applicable, is on any other date, (C) with respect to all Notes, if any Notes are surrendered for conversion after the close of business on a Regular Record Date for the payment of interest and on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, and (D) on the final Interest Payment Date.

Following an increase in the principal amount of any outstanding Global Notes as a result of a PIK Payment, such Global Note will bear interest on such increased principal amount from and after the date of such PIK Payment. Any PIK Notes issued in certificated form will be dated as of the applicable Interest Payment Date and will bear interest from and after such date. All PIK Notes issued pursuant to a PIK Payment will be governed by, and subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of, the Indenture and shall have the same rights and benefits as the Notes issued on the Issue Date.

Any Defaulted Amounts shall accrue interest per annum at the rate borne by the Notes, subject to the enforceability thereof under applicable law, from, and including, the relevant payment date to, but excluding, the date on which such Defaulted Amounts shall have been paid by the Company, at its election, in accordance with Section 2.03(e) of the Indenture.

The Company shall pay the principal of and interest (other than PIK Interest) on this Note, if and so long as such Note is a Global Note, in immediately available funds to the Depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered Holder of such Note. As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Company shall pay the principal of any Notes (other than Notes that are Global Notes) at the office or agency designated by the Company for that purpose. The Company has initially designated the Trustee as its Paying Agent and Note Registrar in respect of the Notes and its agency in the continental United States of America as a place where Notes may be presented for payment or for registration of transfer and exchange.

At all times, PIK Interest on the Notes will be payable (x) with respect to Notes represented by one or more Global Notes registered in the name of, or held by, the Depositary or its nominee on the relevant Regular Record Date, by increasing the principal amount of the outstanding Global Note by an amount equal to the amount of PIK Interest for the applicable Interest Period (rounded to the nearest whole dollar, with amounts of $0.50 or more being rounded up), or by issuing a new Global Note, if required pursuant to the applicable procedures of the Depositary, in each case, as provided in writing by the Company to the Trustee, and the Trustee, at the written request of the Company, will record such increase in such Global Note and (y) with respect to Notes represented by Physical Notes, by issuing PIK Notes in certificated form in an aggregate principal amount equal to the amount of PIK Interest for the applicable Interest Period (rounded to the nearest whole dollar, with amounts of $0.50 or more being rounded up), and the Trustee will, at the written request of the Company in a Company Order, authenticate and deliver such PIK Notes in certificated form for original issuance to the Holders on the relevant Regular Record Date, as shown in the register of the Note Registrar.

A-4

Reference is made to the further provisions of this Note set forth on the reverse hereof, including, without limitation, provisions giving the Holder of this Note the right to convert this Note into shares of Common Stock on the terms and subject to the limitations set forth in the Indenture. Such further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as though fully set forth at this place.

This Note, and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to this Note, shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York.

In the case of any conflict between this Note and the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall control and govern.

This Note shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose until the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been signed manually by the Trustee or a duly authorized authenticating agent under the Indenture.

[FORM OF REVERSE OF NOTE]

Barkbox, Inc.

Convertible Secured Note due 2025

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Company, designated as its Convertible Secured Notes due 2025 (the “Notes”), initially limited to the aggregate principal amount of $75,000,000, subject to any PIK Payments permitted by the Indenture that are made pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) thereof, and except for (i) Notes authenticated and delivered upon registration or transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of other Notes to the extent expressly permitted by the Indenture and (ii) Additional Notes issued in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, all issued or to be issued under and pursuant to an Indenture dated as of November [•], 2020 (the “Indenture”), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, a national banking association, as trustee (the “Trustee”) and collateral agent (the “Collateral Agent”), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders of the Notes. Additional Notes may be issued subject to certain conditions specified in the Indenture. Capitalized terms used in this Note and not defined in this Note shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Indenture.

In case certain Events of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal of, and interest on, all Notes may be declared, by either the Trustee or Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, and upon said declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect and subject to the conditions and certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, the Company will make all payments and deliveries in respect of the Change of Control Redemption Price on the Change of Control Redemption Date, Fundamental Change Repurchase Price or Change of Control Repurchase Price on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date or the Change of Control Repurchase Date, as applicable, and the principal amount on the Maturity Date, as the case may be, to the Holder who surrenders a Note to a Paying Agent to collect such payments in respect of the Note. The Company will pay cash amounts in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company and the Trustee and the Collateral Agent in certain circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of the Notes, and in certain other circumstances, with the consent of the Holders of not less than the Minimum Principal Amount of the Notes at the time outstanding, evidenced as in the Indenture provided, to execute supplemental indentures modifying the terms of the Indenture and the Notes as described therein. It is also provided in the Indenture that, subject to certain exceptions, the Holders of the Minimum Principal Amount of the Notes at the time outstanding may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any past Default or Event of Default under the Indenture and its consequences.

A-7

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay or deliver, as the case may be, the principal of, accrued and unpaid interest on, and the consideration due upon conversion of, this Note at the place, at the respective times, at the rate and in the lawful money or shares of Common Stock, as the case may be, herein prescribed.

The Notes are issuable in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 principal amount and integral multiples thereof; provided that after a PIK Payment, the Notes shall be in minimum denominations of $1.00 and any integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof. At the office or agency of the Company referred to on the face hereof, and in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Indenture, Notes may be exchanged for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of other authorized denominations, without payment of any service charge but, if required by the Company or Trustee, with payment of a sum sufficient to cover any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax or similar governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder of the new Notes issued upon such exchange of Notes being different from the name of the Holder of the old Notes surrendered for such exchange.

The Notes may not be redeemed and are not subject to any sinking fund.

On or after a Qualified Public Company Event, and upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Change, the Holder has the right, at such Holder’s option and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, to require the Company to repurchase for cash all of such Holder’s Notes or any portion thereof (in principal amounts of $1,000 (or, if a PIK Payment has been made, in principal amounts of $1.00) or integral multiples thereof) on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date at a price equal to the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price.

If a Change of Control occurs, the Holder has the right, at such Holder’s option and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, to require the Company to repurchase for cash all of such Holder’s Notes or any portion thereof (in principal amounts of $1,000 (or, if a PIK Payment has been made, in principal amounts of $1.00) or integral multiples thereof) on the Change of Control Repurchase Date at a price equal to the Change of Control Repurchase Price or on the Change of Control Redemption Date at a price equal to the Change of Control Redemption Price, as applicable.

The Notes are convertible into Common Stock in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.

The payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on the Notes, is unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by the Guarantors, if any, to the extent set forth in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture.

The Obligations of the Company and the Guarantors, if any, under the Notes and the Note Guarantees, if any, are secured by Liens on the Collateral pursuant to the terms of the Security Documents.
