1.   Interest

 

Truven Health Analytics Inc., a Delaware corporation (such corporation, and its successors and assigns under the Indenture hereinafter referred to, being herein called the “Issuer”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate of 10.625% per annum, which shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from June 1, 2014.  The Issuer shall pay interest on overdue principal at the rate specified herein, and it shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest (including Additional Interest) at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

 

The Issuer shall make each interest payment in cash semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year, commencing on December 1, 2014, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an “Interest Payment Date”) to Holders of record of Notes on the immediately preceding May 15 and November 15.

 

In addition to the rights provided to Holders under the Indenture, Holders of Registrable Securities shall have all rights set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of November 12, 2014, among Truven Health Analytics Inc., Truven Holding Corp., Simpler North America, LLC, Simpler Consulting, LLC, Joan Wellman and Associates, Inc. and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as initial purchaser (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), including the right to receive Additional Interest in certain circumstances. If applicable, Additional Interest shall be paid to the same Persons, in the same manner and at the same times as regular interest.

 

2.   Method of Payment

 

By no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the date on which any principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note is due and payable, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent a sum sufficient in immediately available funds to pay such principal, premium or interest when due.  Interest on any Note which is payable, and is timely paid or duly provided for, on any interest payment date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the preceding May 15 and November 15 at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.3 of the Indenture.  The principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Notes shall be payable at the office or agency of Paying Agent or Registrar designated by the Issuer maintained for such purpose in the United States or at such other office or agency of the Issuer as may be maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.3 of the Indenture; provided, however, that, at the option of the Issuer, the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest may be paid by (i) check mailed to addresses of the Persons entitled thereto as such addresses shall appear on

Payments in respect of Notes represented by a Global Note (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by The Depository Trust Company or any successor depository.

 

3.   Paying Agent and Registrar

 

The Issuer initially appoints The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (the “Trustee”) as Registrar and Paying Agent for the Notes.  The Issuer may change any Registrar or Paying Agent without prior notice to the Holders.  The Issuer or any Guarantor may act as Paying Agent, Registrar or transfer agent.

 

4.   Indenture

 

The Issuer issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of June 6, 2012 (as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, the “Indenture”), among Truven Health Analytics Inc. (formerly known as Wolverine Healthcare Analytics, Inc.), Truven Holding Corp., (formerly known as VCPH Holding Corp.), as guarantor, and the Trustee.  The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S.C. §§ 77aaa-77bbbb) as in effect on the date of the Indenture (the “Act”).  The Notes are subject to all terms and provisions of the Indenture, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the Act for a statement of those terms.  To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

 

The Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Issuer.  The aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be authenticated and delivered under the Indenture is unlimited.  This Note is one of the 10.625% Senior Notes, Series A, due 2020 referred to in the Indenture.  The Notes include (i) $327,150,000 principal amount of the Issuer’s 10.625% Senior Notes, Series B, due 2020 issued under the Indenture on July 31, 2013 (the “Initial Notes”), (ii) $40,000,000 principal amount of the Issuer’s 10.625% Senior Notes, Series A, due 2020 issued under the Indenture on November 12, 2014 and (iii) if and when issued, additional 10.625% Senior Notes, Series A, due 2020 or 10.625% Senior Notes, Series B, due 2020 of the Issuer that may be issued from time to time in accordance with the Indenture subsequent to November 12, 2014 (together with the notes described in clause (ii) above, the “Additional Notes”) as provided in Section 2.1(a) of the Indenture and (iv) if and when issued, the Issuer’s 10.625% Senior Notes, Series B, due 2020 that may be issued from time to time under the Indenture in exchange for Additional Notes in an offer registered under the Securities Act as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement (herein called “Exchange Notes”).  The Initial Notes, the Additional Notes and the Exchange Notes shall be considered collectively as a single class for all purposes of the Indenture and any security documents.  The Indenture imposes certain limitations on the incurrence of indebtedness and issuance of disqualified stock and preferred stock, the making of restricted payments, the sale of assets and subsidiary stock, the incurrence of certain liens, the making of payments for consents, the entering into of agreements that restrict distribution from restricted subsidiaries and the consummation of mergers and consolidations.  The Indenture also

6.   Redemption

 

At any time prior to June 1, 2016, the Issuer may redeem all or a part of the Notes upon notice as described in Section 5.3 of the Indenture, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes redeemed, plus the Applicable Premium (as defined below) as of, and accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to but excluding the date of redemption (the “Redemption Date”), subject to the rights of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date.

 

Until June 1, 2015, the Issuer may, at its option, upon notice as described under Section 5.3 of the Indenture, on one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes issued under the Indenture at a redemption price equal to 110.625% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, thereon, if any, to but excluding the applicable Redemption Date, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date, with the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings; provided that (a) at least 50% of the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Notes originally issued under the Indenture on the Issue Date and any Additional Notes that are issued under the Indenture after the Issue Date remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of each such redemption and (b) each such redemption occurs within 90 days of the date of closing of each such Equity Offering.

If a Change of Control occurs, unless the Issuer has previously or concurrently mailed a redemption notice with respect to all the outstanding Notes as described in Section 5.7 of the Indenture, each Holder shall have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase from each Holder all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the date of purchase, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date as provided in, and subject to the terms of, the Indenture.

11.   Defeasance

 

Subject to certain exceptions and conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Issuer at any time may terminate some or all of its obligations under the Notes and the Indenture if the Issuer deposits with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Securities for the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes to redemption or maturity, as the case may be.

 

12.   Amendment, Supplement, Waiver

 

Subject to certain exceptions contained in the Indenture, the Indenture and the Notes may be amended, or default may be waived, with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes.  Without notice to or the consent of any Holder, the Issuer, any Guarantor (with respect to a Guarantee or the Indenture to which it is a party) and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture, any Guarantee and the Notes as provided in the Indenture.

 

13.   Defaults and Remedies

 

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default relating to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Issuer or certain Restricted Subsidiaries) occurs

 

A-8



 

and is continuing, the Trustee by notice to the Issuer, or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the total outstanding Notes by notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest), if any, and any other monetary obligations on all the Notes to be due and payable.  Upon such a declaration, such principal, premium and accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest) and any other monetary obligations shall be due and payable immediately.  If a bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Issuer or certain Restricted Subsidiaries occurs and is continuing, the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest) and any other monetary obligations on all the Notes shall become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders.  Under certain circumstances, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may rescind any such acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences.

 

14.   Trustee Dealings with the Issuer

 

Subject to certain limitations set forth in the Indenture, The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer, Guarantors or their Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.

 

15.   No Recourse Against Others

 

An incorporator, director, officer, employee or stockholder of the Issuer or any Guarantor or any of their parent companies, solely by reason of this status, shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or any Guarantor under the Notes or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation.  By accepting a Note, each Holder waives and releases all such liability.  The waiver and release are a part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes.

 

16.   Authentication

 

This Note shall not be valid until an authorized officer of the Trustee (or an authenticating agent acting on its behalf) manually signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this Note.

 

17.   Abbreviations
