36

However, to the extent any provision of any Note conflicts with the express provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

Each Global Note of a series shall represent such of the outstanding Notes of such series as shall be specified therein and each shall provide that it represents the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges and redemptions. The registered Holder of a Global Note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including members of, or Participants in, Euroclear and Clearstream and Persons that may hold interests through Participants, to take any action that a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Notes.

(c) 144A Global Notes and Regulation S Global Notes. Notes sold within the United States to QIBs pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act shall be issued initially in the form of a 144A Global Note of a series, which shall be deposited with the Common Depositary (or nominee thereof) for Euroclear and Clearstream, duly executed by the Issuer and authenticated by the Trustee as hereinafter provided. The aggregate principal amount of the 144A Global Note of a series may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on Schedule A to each such Global Note, as hereinafter provided.

(e) Book-Entry Provisions. The Applicable Procedures shall be applicable to Book-Entry Interests in the Global Notes of a series that are held by a Participant through Euroclear or Clearstream.

Section 2.02. Execution and Authentication.

(a) One Officer of the Issuer shall sign the Notes of a series by manual, facsimile or electronic (including “pdf”) signature.

(b) If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time a Note is authenticated, the Note shall nevertheless be valid.

(c) A Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture.

(d) The Trustee shall, upon a written order of the Issuer signed by one Officer (an “Authentication Order”), authenticate Notes for original issue.

(e) The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate Notes. An authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with Holders or an Affiliate of the Issuer.

(f) The Issuer may issue Additional Notes of either series from time to time after the offering of the Initial Notes. The Initial Notes of either series and any Additional Notes of either series subsequently issued under this Indenture will constitute separate series of Notes but, except as otherwise provided below, shall be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture, including, without limitation, waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase; provided, however, that any Additional Notes of a series may not have the same Common Code number as the Notes of such series unless either (i) the Additional Notes of such series are treated as part of the same issue for U.S. federal income tax purposes or (ii) both the Notes of such series and the Additional Notes of such series are issued with no (or less than a de minimis amount of) original issue discount for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Section 2.03. Registrar and Paying Agent.

(a) The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”) and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”). The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Issuer may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents with respect to a series. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar and the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without prior notice to any Holder of the Notes of such

38

series. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Issuer fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

(b) The Issuer initially appoints Euroclear and Clearstream to act as Depositary with respect to the Global Notes of each series.

(c) The Issuer initially appoints The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch to act as Paying Agent and Notes Collateral Agent on each series of Notes.

Section 2.04. Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust.

The Issuer shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, if any, on the Notes of a series, and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Issuer in making any such payment. While any such Default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Issuer or a Subsidiary of the Issuer) shall have no further liability for the money. If the Issuer or a Subsidiary the Issuer acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Issuer, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes for either series.

Section 2.05. Holder Lists.

The Registrar shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of all Holders. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee at least seven Business Days before each interest payment date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date or such shorter time as the Trustee may allow, as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders.

Section 2.06. Transfer and Exchange.

(a) Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes. A Global Note may not be transferred as a whole except by the Depositary to the Common Depositary or a nominee of such Common Depositary, by the Common Depositary or a nominee of such Depositary to such Depositary or to another nominee or Common Depositary of such Depositary, or by such Common Depositary or Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or Common Depositary or a nominee thereof. All Global Notes of a series will be exchanged by the Issuer for Definitive Notes of such series if (1) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee notice from Euroclear or Clearstream that it is unwilling or unable to continue to act as Depositary and a successor Depositary is not

39

appointed by the Issuer within 90 days after the date of such notice from the Depositary, or (2) Euroclear or Clearstream requests such exchange in writing following an Event of Default under this Indenture. Upon the occurrence of any of the preceding events in (1) or (2) above, Definitive Notes of a series shall be issued in denominations of €100,000 or integral multiples of €1,000 in excess thereof and in such names as the relevant Depositary shall instruct the Trustee. Global Notes of a series also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in part, as provided in Sections 2.07 and 2.10 hereof. Every Note of a series authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion thereof, pursuant to this Section 2.06 or Section 2.07 or 2.10 hereof, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note. A Global Note may not be exchanged for another Note of such series other than as provided in this Section 2.06(a), however, Book-Entry Interests in a Global Note of a series may be transferred and exchanged as provided in Section 2.06 (b) or (c) hereof.

(b) Transfer and Exchange of Book-Entry Interests in the Global Notes. The transfer and exchange of Book-Entry Interests in the Global Notes of a series (other than transfers of Book-Entry Interests in connection with which the transferor takes delivery thereof in the form of a Book-Entry Interest in the same Global Note) shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture and the Applicable Procedures. Book-Entry Interests in the Restricted Global Notes of each series shall be subject to restrictions on transfer comparable to those set forth herein to the extent required by the Securities Act. Transfers of Book-Entry Interests in the Global Notes of a series also shall require compliance with either clause (i) or (ii) below, as applicable, as well as one or more of the other following clauses, as applicable:

Book-Entry Interests in any Restricted Global Note of a series may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a Book-Entry Interest in the same Restricted Global Note in accordance with the transfer restrictions set forth in the Private Placement Legend; provided, however, that prior to the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, transfers of Book-Entry Interests in the Regulation S Global Note of a series shall be limited to Persons that have accounts with Euroclear or Clearstream or Persons who hold interests through Euroclear or Clearstream, and any sale or transfer of such interest to U.S. Persons shall not be permitted during the Distribution Compliance Period unless such resale or transfer is made pursuant to Rule 144A. Book-Entry Interests in any Unrestricted Global Note of a series may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a Book-Entry Interest in an Unrestricted Global Note of such series. No written orders or instructions shall be required to be delivered to the Registrar to effect the transfers described in this Section 2.06(b)(i).

Upon satisfaction of all of the requirements for transfer or exchange of Book-Entry Interests in Global Notes of a series contained in this Indenture and the Notes of such series or otherwise applicable under the Securities Act, the Trustee shall adjust the principal amount of the relevant Global Note(s) of such series pursuant to Section 2.06(g) hereof.

A Holder of Unrestricted Definitive Notes of a series may transfer such Notes to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of an Unrestricted Definitive Note of such series.

At such time as all Book-Entry Interests in a particular Global Note of a series have been exchanged for Definitive Notes or a particular Global Note of a series has been redeemed, repurchased or cancelled in whole and not in part, each such Global Note of such series shall be returned to or retained and cancelled by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.11 hereof. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any Book-Entry Interest in a Global Note of a series is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a Book-Entry Interest in another Global Note of such series or for Definitive Notes of such series, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note of such series shall be reduced accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note of such series by the Paying Agent or by the Common Depositary, at the direction of the Trustee, to reflect such reduction; and if the Book-Entry Interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a Book-Entry Interest in another Global Note of such series, such other Global Note of such series shall be increased accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note of such series by the Paying Agent or by the custodian of the Common Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such increase.

(ii) No service charge shall be made by the Issuer or the Registrar to a Holder of a Book-Entry Interest in a Global Note of a series or to a Holder of a Definitive Note of a series for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer Tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer Taxes or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.10, 3.06, 4.12, 4.18 and 9.05 hereof).

(iii) All Global Notes and Definitive Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Notes or Definitive Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global Notes or Definitive Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

(iv) Neither the Registrar nor the Issuer shall be required (A) to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange any Notes of a series during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of any selection of Notes for redemption under Section 3.02 hereof and ending at the close of business on the day of selection, (B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note of such series so selected for

49

redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note of such series being redeemed in part or (C) to register the transfer of or to exchange a Note of a series between a record date and the next succeeding interest payment date.

(v) Prior to due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any Note, the Trustee, any Agent and the Issuer may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on such Notes and for all other purposes, and none of the Trustee, any Agent or the Issuer shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

(vi) The Trustee shall authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02 hereof.

(vii) All certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to be submitted to the Registrar pursuant to this Section 2.06 to effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by facsimile.

(viii) The Trustee is hereby authorized to enter into a letter of representation with the Depository in the form provided by the Issuer and to act in accordance with such letter. Neither the Trustee nor any Agent of the Trustee shall have any responsibility for any actions taken or not taken by the Depositary.

(ix) Each Holder of a Note agrees to indemnify the Issuer and Trustee against any liability that may result from the transfer, exchange or assignment of such Holder’s Note in violation of any provision of this Indenture and/or applicable United States federal or state securities laws.

(x) None of the Issuer or the Trustee or any Agent of the Trustee shall have any responsibility or obligation to any Participant or Indirect Participant or any other Person with respect to the accuracy of the books or records, or the acts or omissions, of the Depositary or its nominee or of any participant or member thereof, with respect to any ownership interest in the Notes or with respect to the delivery to any Participant or Indirect Participant or other Person (other than the Depositary) of any notice (including any notice of redemption) or the payment of any amount, under or with respect to such Notes. All notices and communications to be given to the Holders and all payments to be made to Holders under the Notes shall be given or made only to or upon the order of the registered Holders (which shall be the Depositary or its nominee in the case of a Global Note). The rights of beneficial owners in any Global Note shall be exercised only through the Depositary subject to the customary procedures of the Depositary.

(xi) The Trustee 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 or Indirect Participants in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as

50

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.

The written certificate delivered pursuant to the applicable provisions in Section 2.06(b)-(e) in the form provided therein shall be deemed satisfactory for purposes of this clause with respect to the relevant exchange of interests.

Section 2.07. Replacement Notes.

If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Issuer and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are met. If required by the Trustee or the Issuer, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Issuer to protect the Issuer, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuer may charge for its expenses in replacing a Note.

Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Issuer and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

Section 2.08. Outstanding Notes.

(a) The Notes of a series outstanding at any time are all the Notes of such series authenticated by the Trustee except for those cancelled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note of such series effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.09 hereof, a Note of a series does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds the Note of such series; provided, however, that Notes of a series held by the Issuer or its Subsidiaries shall not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of Section 3.07(b) hereof.

(b) If a Note of a series is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note of such series is held by a bona fide purchaser.

51

(c) If the principal amount of any Note of such series is considered paid under Section 4.01 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue.

(d) If the Paying Agent (other than the Issuer, a Subsidiary of the Issuer or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on a redemption date or maturity date, money sufficient to pay Notes of such series payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes of such series shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding and shall cease to accrue interest.

Section 2.09. Treasury Notes.

In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Issuer, or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Issuer, shall be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Notes so owned which have been pledged in good faith shall not be disregarded if the pledge establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right to deliver any such direction, waive its consent with respect to the Notes and that the pledgee is not the Issuer or any obligor of the Notes or any Affiliate of the Issuer or of such other obligor.

Section 2.10. Temporary Notes.

Until certificates representing Notes of a series are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate temporary Notes of such series. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of certificated Notes of such series but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Notes of such series in exchange for temporary Notes of such series.

Holders and beneficial holders, as the case may be, of temporary Notes shall be entitled to all of the benefits accorded to Holders, or beneficial holders, respectively, of the Notes under this Indenture.

Section 2.11. Cancellation.

The Issuer at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee upon direction by the Issuer and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall destroy cancelled Notes (subject to the record retention requirements of the Exchange Act). Certification of the destruction of all cancelled Notes shall be delivered to the Issuer. The Issuer may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

Section 2.12. Defaulted Interest.

52

If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest, if any, on the Notes, it shall pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment. The Issuer shall fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date, provided that no such special record date shall be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Issuer (or, upon the written request of the Issuer, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuer) shall send or cause to be sent to Holders a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid.

Section 2.13. ISIN or Common Code Numbers.

The Issuer in issuing the Notes may use “ISIN” or “Common Code” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use “ISIN” or “Common Code” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the “ISIN” or “Common Code” numbers.

ARTICLE 3

REDEMPTION AND PREPAYMENT

Section 3.01. Notices to Trustee.

If the Issuer elects to redeem Notes of either series pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of Section 3.07 hereof, it shall furnish to the Trustee, at least 45 days (unless a shorter notice shall be agreed to by the Trustee) but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, an Officer’s Certificate complying with the applicable provisions of Section 13.04 setting forth (i) the clause of this Indenture pursuant to which the redemption shall occur, (ii) the redemption date, (iii) the principal amount of Notes of such series to be redeemed and (iv) the redemption price.

Section 3.02. Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed or Repurchased.

If less than all of the Notes of a series are to be redeemed at any time, the Notes of such series shall be selected to be redeemed or repurchased in compliance with the requirements of Euroclear and/or Clearstream, or if the Notes are not held through Euroclear and/or Clearstream or Euroclear and/or Clearstream prescribes no method of selection, by lot.

The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer in writing of the Notes of such series selected for redemption and, in the case of any Note of such series elected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Notes and portions of Notes selected shall be in amounts of €100,000 or integral multiples of €1,000 in excess thereof; provided that if all of the

53

Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder, even if not a multiple of €1,000, shall be redeemed. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption.

Section 3.03. Notice of Redemption.

Subject to Section 3.09 hereof, at least 15 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Issuer shall send or cause to be sent a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes of a series are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction or discharge of this Indenture.

The notice shall identify the series of Notes to be redeemed, the Common Code number, and shall state:

(a) the redemption date;

(b) the redemption price or if the redemption is made pursuant to Section 3.07(b) a calculation of the redemption price;

(c) if any Note of such series is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Note to be redeemed and that, after the redemption date upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes of such series in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion shall be issued upon cancellation of the original Note;

(d) the name and address of the Paying Agent;

(e) that Notes of such series called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price;

(f) that, unless the Issuer defaults in making such redemption payment and interest, if any, on Notes of such series called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date;

(g) the paragraph of the Notes of such series or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes of such series called for redemption are being redeemed; and

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

At the Issuer’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Issuer’s name and at its expense; provided, however, that the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least 45 days, or such shorter period allowed by the Trustee, prior to the redemption date, an Officer’s Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in this Section 3.03 (unless a shorter notice shall be agreed to by the Trustee).

54

Any inadvertent defect in the notice of redemption, including an inadvertent failure to give notice, to any Holder of a series of Notes selected for redemption will not impair or affect the validity of the redemption of any other Note of any series, redeemed in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.

Notice of any redemption of the Notes of any series may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be given prior to the completion of a transaction (including a Qualified Equity Offering, an incurrence of Indebtedness (including Disqualified Stock), a Change of Control or other transaction) and any redemption notice may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of a related transaction. If such redemption or purchase is so subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Issuer’s discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time (including more than 60 days after the date the notice of redemption was mailed or delivered, including by electronic transmission) as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such redemption or purchase may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the redemption date, or by the payment of the redemption price and performance of the Issuer’s obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another person.

Section 3.04. Effect of Notice of Redemption.

Once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the redemption date at the redemption price. In connection with any redemption of Notes, any such redemption may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent.

Section 3.05. Deposit of Redemption Price.

On or before 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) one Business Day prior to any redemption date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest, if any, on all Notes to be redeemed on that date.

If the Issuer complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after the redemption date, interest, if any, shall cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption. If a Note is redeemed on or after an interest record date but on or prior to the related interest payment date, then any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such record date. If any Note called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender for redemption because of the failure of the Issuer to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest, if any, shall be paid on the unpaid principal from the redemption date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof.

Section 3.06. Notes Redeemed in Part.

55

Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed in part, the Issuer may issue and, upon the Issuer’s written request, the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder at the expense of the Issuer a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Note surrendered.

Payment for any Notes so purchased shall be made in the same manner as interest payments are made.

(vii) that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Issuer, the depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, not later than the expiration of the Offer Period, written notice setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note the Holder delivered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased;

(viii) that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by Holders exceeds the Offer Amount, the Issuer shall select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Issuer so that only Notes in denominations of €100,000 and integral multiples of €1,000 in excess thereof shall be purchased); and

(ix) that Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part shall be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer) representing the same indebtedness to the extent not repurchased.

(e) On or before the Purchase Date, the Issuer shall, to the extent lawful, (1) accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Offer Amount of Notes or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer, or if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered, and (2) shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Issuer in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.09.

(f) The Issuer shall promptly (but in any case not later than five Business Days after the Purchase Date) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Issuer for purchase, and the Issuer shall promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon written request from the Issuer shall authenticate and mail or deliver such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Issuer to the Holder thereof. The Issuer shall publicly announce the results of the Asset Sale Offer on the Purchase Date.

Other than as specifically provided in this Section 3.09 or Section 4.12 hereof, any purchase pursuant to this Section 3.09 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.01 through 3.06 hereof.

Section 3.10. Redemption for Taxation Reasons.

The Notes of either series may be redeemed, at the option of the Issuer, as a whole but not in part, upon giving not less than 15 days’ nor more than 60 days’ notice to Holders (which notice will be irrevocable), at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest (including any Additional Amounts), if any, to the date fixed by the Issuer for redemption if, as a result of:

(1) any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of a Taxing Jurisdiction affecting taxation; or

(2) any change in, or amendment to, an official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings (including a holding, judgment or order by a court of competent jurisdiction), which change or amendment becomes effective on or after the date on which such jurisdiction becomes a Taxing Jurisdiction, and the Issuer or any Guarantor, as the case may be, is, or on the next interest payment date would be, required to pay Additional Amounts, and such requirement cannot be avoided by the Issuer or any Guarantor, as the case may be, taking reasonable measures available to it; provided that for the avoidance of doubt, changing the jurisdiction of the Issuer or any Guarantor is not a reasonable measure for the purposes of this Section 3.10; provided, further, that no such notice of redemption will be given earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer or any Guarantor, as the case may be, would be obligated to pay such Additional Amounts if a payment in respect of the Notes were then due.

Prior to the transmission of any notice of redemption of the Notes pursuant to the foregoing, the Issuer will deliver to the Trustee:

60

(1) an Officer's Certificate stating that such change or amendment referred to in the prior paragraph has occurred, and describing the facts related thereto and stating that such requirement cannot be avoided by the Issuer or Guarantor, as the case may be, taking reasonable measures available to it; and

(2) an Opinion of Counsel of recognized international standing stating that the requirement to pay such Additional Amounts results from such change or amendment referred to in the prior paragraph.

The Trustee will accept such certificate and opinion as sufficient evidence of the satisfaction of the conditions precedent described above, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on the Holders.

Any Notes that are redeemed will be cancelled.

64

Disqualified Stock had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such four-quarter period.

case, that the amount of any such accrual, accretion or payment is included in the Issuer’s Fixed Charges as accrued. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.09, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Issuer or the Restricted Subsidiaries may incur pursuant to this Section 4.09 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates or currency values.

(d) The Issuer shall not incur any Indebtedness that is contractually subordinate or junior in right of payment to any Indebtedness of the Issuer unless such Indebtedness is also contractually subordinated in right of payment to the Notes and the applicable Guarantee on substantially identical terms; provided, however, that no Indebtedness of the Issuer shall be deemed to be contractually subordinated in right of payment solely by virtue of being unsecured or secured by a junior Lien or by virtue of being structurally subordinated. No Guarantor shall incur any Indebtedness that is subordinate or junior in right of payment to the Indebtedness of such Guarantor unless such Indebtedness is also contractually subordinated in right of payment to the Notes and the applicable Guarantee on substantially identical terms; provided, however, that no Indebtedness of a Guarantor will be deemed to be contractually subordinated in right of payment solely by virtue of being unsecured or secured by a junior Lien.

The Issuer shall not permit any Unrestricted Subsidiary to incur any Indebtedness other than Non-Recourse Debt; provided, however, that if any such Indebtedness ceases to be Non-Recourse Debt of an Unrestricted Subsidiary, such event shall be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by the obligors of such Indebtedness.

For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term debt, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit debt; provided that if such Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed (i) the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced plus (ii) the aggregate amount of fees, underwriting discounts, premiums and other costs and expenses incurred in connection with such refinancing.

Section 4.10. Restricted Payments.

The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly:

(a) declare or pay any dividend or make any other payment or distribution on account of the Issuer’s or any Restricted Subsidiaries’ Equity Interests (including, without limitation, any payment in connection with any merger or consolidation involving the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary) or to the direct or indirect holders of the Issuer’s or any Restricted Subsidiaries’ Equity Interests in their capacity as such (in each case other than dividends or distributions

69

payable in the Issuer’s Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) or to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary);

(b) purchase, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value any of the Issuer’s or the Restricted Subsidiaries’ Equity Interests (in each case other than any of the Restricted Subsidiaries’ Equity Interests owned by the Issuer or another Restricted Subsidiary or for consideration consisting solely of the Issuer’s Equity Interests other than Disqualified Stock);

(c) make any payment on or with respect to, or purchase, redeem, repurchase, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value any of the Issuer’s or the Restricted Subsidiaries’ Subordinated Indebtedness (other than Subordinated Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries), except (i) a payment of interest or principal at the Stated Maturity thereof, (ii) the purchase, repurchase or other acquisition of any such Indebtedness in anticipation of satisfying a sinking fund obligation, principal installment or final maturity, in each case, due within one year of the date of such purchase, repurchase or other acquisition, or (iii) for consideration consisting solely of the Issuer’s Equity Interests other than Disqualified Stock; or

(d) make any Restricted Investment (all such payments and other actions set forth in these clauses (a) through (d) above being collectively referred to as “Restricted Payments”), unless, at the time of and after giving effect to such Restricted Payment:

(a) other than in the case of amounts attributable to subclause (ii) through (v) of clause (c) below, no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would immediately occur as a consequence of such Restricted Payment;

(b) the Issuer would, at the time of such Restricted Payment and after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Restricted Payment had been made at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, have been permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in Section 4.09(a); and

(c) such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all other Restricted Payments made by the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries after the Issue Date (excluding Restricted Payments made pursuant to the next paragraph other than clauses (1), (7), (8), (12) and (14) of the next paragraph), is less than the sum, without duplication, of:

(i) 50% of the Consolidated Net Income of the Issuer for the period (taken as one accounting period) from the beginning of the first full fiscal quarter of the Issuer commencing immediately prior to January 1, 2019 to the end of the Issuer’s most recently ended fiscal quarter for which internal financial statements are available at the time of such Restricted Payment (or, if such Consolidated Net Income for such period is a deficit, less 100% of such deficit), plus

(ii) 100% of the aggregate net cash proceeds or the fair value of property or assets received by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary after January 1, 2019 as a contribution to the common equity capital of the Issuer or from the

70

issue or sale of Equity Interests of the Issuer (other than Disqualified Stock) or from the issue or sale of convertible or exchangeable Disqualified Stock or convertible or exchangeable debt securities of the Issuer that have been converted into or exchanged for such Equity Interests (other than Equity Interests or Disqualified Stock or debt securities sold to a Subsidiary of the Issuer), together with the aggregate net cash and Cash Equivalents received by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiaries at the time of such conversion or exchange; provided, however, that this clause shall not include the proceeds from Excluded Contributions, plus

(iii) to the extent that any Restricted Investment that was made after January 1, 2019 is sold for cash or otherwise liquidated or repaid for cash, the proceeds realized from the sale of such Restricted Investment and proceeds representing the return of the capital with respect to such Restricted Investment, in each case to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, less the cost of the disposition of such Restricted Investment, plus

(iv) to the extent that any Unrestricted Subsidiary is redesignated as a Restricted Subsidiary after January 1, 2019, the portion (proportionate to the Issuer’s interest in such Unrestricted Subsidiary) of the fair market value of the net assets of the Unrestricted Subsidiary at the time such Unrestricted Subsidiary is designated a Restricted Subsidiary; plus

(v) 50% of any dividends received by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary from any Unrestricted Subsidiary after January 1, 2019 to the extent the Issuer’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s Investment in such Unrestricted Subsidiary was a Restricted Investment, and to the extent such dividends were not otherwise included in the Consolidated Net Income of the Issuer for such period.

(e) The preceding provisions will not prohibit:

(1) the payment of any dividend (or other distribution) or the consummation of any irrevocable redemption within 90 days after the date of declaration of the dividend (or other distribution) or giving of the redemption notice, as the case may be, if at the date of declaration or notice the dividend (or other distribution) payment or redemption would have complied with the provisions hereof;

(2) the making of any Restricted Payment in exchange for, or out of the net cash proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale (other than to any Restricted Subsidiary) of, the Issuer’s Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) or from the substantially concurrent contribution of common equity capital to the Issuer; provided that the amount of any such net cash proceeds that are utilized to make any such Restricted Payment will be excluded from clause (c)(ii) of the preceding paragraph and shall not constitute Excluded Contributions;

71

(3) the purchase, defeasance, redemption, repurchase or other acquisition or retirement of Subordinated Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary with (i) the net cash proceeds from an incurrence of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness or (ii) in exchange for, or out of the proceeds of a substantially concurrent Qualified Equity Offering;

(4) in the case of a Restricted Subsidiary, the payment of dividends (or in the case of any partnership or limited liability company, any similar distribution) to the holders of its Capital Stock on a pro rata basis;

(5) repurchases of Equity Interests deemed to occur upon the exercise of options, warrants, restricted stock units or similar rights if such Equity Interests represents all or a portion of the exercise price thereof or are deemed to occur in connection with the satisfaction of any withholding tax obligation incurred relating to the vesting or exercise of such options, warrants, restricted stock units or similar rights;

(6) cash payments, in lieu of issuance of fractional shares in connection with the exercise of warrants, options or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for Equity Interests of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary;

(7) the repurchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement for value of any Subordinated Indebtedness following a Change of Control or Asset Sale, as applicable, after the Issuer shall have complied with Section 4.18 and Section 4.12, as applicable, including the payment of the applicable purchase price;

(8) the declaration and payment of regularly scheduled or accrued dividends to holders of any class or series of Disqualified Stock of the Issuer or any preferred stock of any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer issued on or after the Issue Date in accordance with the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test described in Section 4.09(a) hereof;

(9) payments made as disclosed under the section “Use of Proceeds” in the Offering Memorandum;

(10) the repurchase, redemption or other acquisition of the Equity Interests of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary from Persons who are, or were formerly, employees, officers and directors of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries and their Affiliates, heirs and executors; provided that the Leverage Ratio would not exceed 3.75:1.00 after giving effect to such purchase;

(11) Restricted Payments that are made with Excluded Contributions;

(12) any Restricted Payments so long as the Leverage Ratio, at the time of each such Restricted Payment, after giving Pro Forma Effect to such Restricted Payment, is no greater than 3.75 to 1.00; provided, however, that at the time of

72

each such Restricted Payment, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing (or result therefrom);

(13) [reserved];

(14) so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or caused thereby, and the Leverage Ratio after giving Pro Forma Effect to such Restricted Payment is no greater than 7.00 to 1.00, Restricted Payments in an amount not to exceed in respect of any fiscal year, 40% of Consolidated Net Income of the Issuer for such fiscal year which amounts may be paid in installments, the first, no earlier than December of such fiscal year and the last, no later than the following fiscal year; and

(15) so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing or would be caused thereby, other Restricted Payments in an aggregate amount since the Issue Date not to exceed the greater of (i) $400.0 million and (ii) 2.8% of Total Assets of the Issuer.

The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) will be the fair market value on the date of the Restricted Payment of the asset(s), property or securities proposed to be transferred or issued by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment. The fair market value of any assets or securities that are required to be valued by this Section 4.10 will be determined conclusively by the Issuer.

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.10, in the event that a proposed Restricted Payment (or a portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Restricted Payments described in clauses (1) through (15) of Section 4.10(e), or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.10(d), the Issuer will be entitled to classify or reclassify (based on circumstances existing on the date of such reclassification) such Restricted Payment or a portion thereof in any manner that complies with this covenant and such Restricted Payment will be treated as having been made pursuant to only such clause or clauses or the first paragraph of this covenant.

Section 4.11. Liens.

(a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien of any kind securing Indebtedness, Attributable Debt or trade payables on any property, asset, or any proceeds therefrom (“Initial Lien”), now owned or hereafter acquired except Permitted Liens, unless:

(i) in the case of Initial Liens on any Collateral, (1) such Initial Lien expressly has Junior Lien Priority on the Collateral relative to the Notes and related Guarantees or (2) such Lien is a Permitted Lien; or

(ii) in the case of any Initial Lien on any asset or property that is not Collateral, (1) the Notes or the Guarantees are equally and ratably secured with (or on a senior basis to, in the case such Initial Lien secured any Subordinated Indebtedness) the Obligations secured by such Initial Lien until such time as such Obligations are no longer

73

secured by such Initial Lien or (ii) such Initial Lien is a Permitted Lien, except that the foregoing shall not apply to Liens securing the Notes and the related Guarantees.

(b) Any Lien created for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes pursuant to Section 4.11(a) shall automatically and unconditionally be released and discharged upon the release and discharge of the Initial Lien, without any further action on the part of any Person.

(c) With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the incurrence of such Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness. The “Increased Amount” of any Indebtedness in connection with any accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies or increases in the value of property securing Indebtedness.

Section 4.12. Asset Sales.

(a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries to,make any Asset Sale unless:

(i) the Issuer (or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at the time of the Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value of the assets sold, leased, transferred, conveyed or otherwise disposed of; and

(ii) at least 75% of the consideration received in the Asset Sale by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash, Cash Equivalents or Replacement Assets, or a combination thereof.

(b) For purposes of this Section 4.12, each of the following will be deemed to be cash:

(i) any liabilities of the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries, as shown on the Issuer’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Guarantee), that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets and with respect to which the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary is released from further liability;

(ii) any securities, notes or other obligations received by the Issuer or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash within 365 days of the consummation of such Asset Sale (subject to ordinary settlement periods), to the extent of the cash received in that conversion;

(iii) any Voting Stock or assets referred to in clauses (c)(ii) and (c)(iii) of this Section 4.12; and

74

(iv) any Designated Non-Cash Consideration received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Issuer’s Board of Directors), taken together with all other Designated Non-Cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (iv) that is at such time outstanding, not to exceed an amount equal to $250.0 million at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-Cash Consideration, with the fair market value of each item of Designated Non-Cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value.

(c) Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary may apply those Net Proceeds at its option:

(i) to (a) prepay, repay or purchase Obligations with Pari Passu Lien Priority (including the Indebtedness owed pursuant to the Credit Agreement and EIB Facility, other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary), and, in the case of revolving obligations, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto, provided that, to the extent either the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary will so repay any such Indebtedness (other than the Notes), the Issuer shall reduce Obligations under the Notes on a pro rata basis by, at their option, (i) redeeming Notes as provided in Section 3.07 hereof, (ii) purchasing Notes through open-market purchases at a purchase price greater than or equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof or (iii) by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth herein for an Asset Sale Offer) to all Holders to purchase their Notes at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus in each case the amount of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased to the date of repurchase or (b) prepay, repay or purchase Indebtedness secured other than by the Collateral (collectively, the “Debt Prepayment Provision”);

(ii) to acquire all or substantially all of the assets of, or a majority of the Voting Stock of, another Permitted Business;

(iii) to make any capital expenditures or to acquire other long-term assets that are used or useful in a Permitted Business; or

(iv) any combination of the foregoing.

In the case of each of clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) above, the entry into a definitive agreement to acquire such assets within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale shall be treated as a permitted application of the Net Proceeds from the date of such agreement so long as the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary enters into such agreement with the good faith expectation that such Net Proceeds will be applied to satisfy such commitment within 180 days of such agreement and such Net Proceeds are actually so applied within such period.

Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds, the Issuer may temporarily reduce revolving credit borrowings under the Credit Agreement or otherwise invest the Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Indenture.

75

(d) Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in Section 4.12(c) will constitute “Excess Proceeds”. When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $200.0 million, the Issuer shall make an Offer (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to all Holders of Notes issued under this Indenture and, to the extent the Issuer elects, to all holders of other outstanding Pari Passu Indebtedness to repay, prepay or purchase the maximum aggregate principal amount of Notes (including any Additional Notes) and such Pari Passu Indebtedness to which the Asset Sale Offer applies that may be repaid, prepaid or purchased out of the Excess Proceeds, at an offer price (i) in respect of the Notes in an amount equal to at least 100% of the principal amount of the Notes and (ii) in the case of any Pari Passu Indebtedness, an offer price of no more than 100% of the principal amount of such Pari Passu Indebtedness, in each case, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of repayment, prepayment or purchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth herein or the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness, as applicable, and with respect to the Notes, subject to the provisions relating to any Additional Notes that may be issued in the future, in minimum denominations of €100,000 and in integral multiples of €1,000 in excess thereof.

If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other Pari Passu Indebtedness validly and properly tendered and not withdrawn into such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee (or applicable depository) will select the Notes and the Issuer or the trustee, security agent, agent or other similar party with respect to such other pari passu Indebtedness will select such Indebtedness to be purchased as described in Article 3 hereof. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero.

Section 4.13. Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries.

The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to:

(a) pay dividends or make any other distributions on or in respect of its Capital Stock to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, or with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits, or pay any Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary, provided that the priority of any preferred stock in receiving dividends or liquidation distributions prior to dividends or liquidation distributions being paid on any common stock shall not be deemed to constitute such encumbrance or restriction;

(b) make any loans or advances to the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary;

(c) transfer any of its properties or assets to the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary; or

(d) Guarantee the Issuer’s or any Restricted Subsidiary’s Indebtedness.

However, the preceding restrictions will not apply to encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of:

76

(i) any Credit Facility (including the Credit Agreement and the EIB Facility), the Existing Notes and any other agreements as in effect on the Issue Date or subsequent agreements relating to Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary and any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of those agreements; provided that the amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacement or refinancings are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions than those contained in those agreements on the Issue Date unless in the good faith determination of the Issuer, such restrictions are not likely to result in the Issuer being unable to make scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes as they come due;

(ii) this Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees;

(iii) applicable law, rules, regulations and orders;

(iv) any instrument governing Indebtedness or Capital Stock of a Person acquired by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary as in effect at the time of such acquisition, which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired; provided that, in the case of Indebtedness, such Indebtedness was permitted by the terms of this Indenture to be incurred;

(v) customary non-assignment provisions in contracts, licenses and leases entered into in the ordinary course of business;

(vi) purchase money obligations for property acquired in the ordinary course of business and Capital Lease Obligations that impose restrictions on the property purchased or leased of the nature described in clause (c) of this Section 4.13;

(vii) any agreement for the sale or other disposition of a Restricted Subsidiary or of all or substantially all of its assets that restricts distributions of assets by, or Equity Interests of, that Restricted Subsidiary pending its sale or other disposition;

(viii) Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; provided that the restrictions contained in the agreements governing such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in the agreements governing the Indebtedness being refinanced;

(ix) Liens permitted to be incurred under Section 4.11 that limit the right of the debtor to dispose of the assets subject to such Liens;

(x) restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by customers (including governmental entities) under contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business;

(xi) provisions limiting the disposition or distribution of assets or property in joint venture agreements, asset sale agreements, sale and leaseback transactions, stock

77

sale agreements and other similar agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business or with the approval of the Issuer’s Board of Directors, which limitation is applicable only to the assets that are the subject of such agreements;

(xii) any encumbrance or restriction on the Issuer’s ability or the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to transfer its interest in any Investment not prohibited by Section 4.10 hereof;

(xiii) customary restrictions imposed on the transfer of, or in licenses related to, copyrights, patents or other intellectual property and contained in agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business;

(xiv) any other agreement governing Indebtedness, preferred stock or Disqualified Stock entered into after the Issue Date that contains encumbrances and restrictions that are not more restrictive than would be permitted by clause (i) of this paragraph;

(xv) restrictions created in connection with any Qualified Securitization Financing that, in the good faith determination of the Board of Directors of the Issuer, are necessary or advisable to effect such Qualified Securitization Financing; and

(xvi) agreements pursuant to any tax sharing arrangement between the Issuer and any one or more of its direct or indirect Subsidiaries.

Section 4.14. Transactions with Affiliates.

The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of the Issuer’s or the Restricted Subsidiaries’ respective properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate involving aggregate payments of consideration in excess of $62.5 million (each, an “Affiliate Transaction”), unless:

(a) the Affiliate Transaction is on terms that taken as a whole are no less favorable to the Issuer or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person; and

(b) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $125.0 million, a majority of the Issuer’s Board of Directors (and, if any, a majority of the disinterested members of the Issuer’s Board of Directors with respect to such transaction) confirms that such Affiliate Transaction complies with this Section 4.14.

The following items will not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of the prior paragraph:

(i) any customary consulting or employment agreement or arrangement, benefit arrangement or plan, incentive compensation plan, stock option or stock

78

ownership plan, employee benefit plan, severance or termination arrangements, expense reimbursement arrangements, officer or director indemnification agreement or any similar arrangement entered into by the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries for the benefit of the Issuer’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s directors, officers, employees and consultants and payments and transactions pursuant thereto, in each case, in the ordinary course of business;

(ii) transactions between or among the Issuer and/or the Restricted Subsidiaries;

(iii) payment of reasonable directors compensation and indemnification costs permitted by the Issuer’s and the Restricted Subsidiaries’ organizational documents for the benefit of directors, officers and employees, in each case, in the ordinary course of business;

(v) any agreement (including any certificate of designations relating to Capital Stock) as in effect as of the Issue Date or any amendment thereto or any transaction contemplated thereby (including pursuant to any amendment thereto) in any replacement agreement thereto so long as any such amendment or replacement agreement is not more disadvantageous to the Holders in any material respect than the original agreement as in effect on the Issue Date;

(vi) the granting or performance of customary registration rights in respect of restricted Equity Interests held or acquired by Affiliates;

(vii) loans and advances to employees in the ordinary course of business not to exceed $62.5 million in the aggregate amount at any one time outstanding;

(ix) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers or purchasers or sellers of goods or services, in each case, in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practice and on terms that are not materially less favorable to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, determined in good faith by the Issuer, that those that could be obtained in a comparable arm’s-length transaction with a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Issuer;

(x) the issuance or repurchase of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Issuer to any Affiliate of the Issuer;

(xii) any transaction disclosed under the section “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions” in the Offering Memorandum and any amendment thereto or any transaction contemplated thereby (including pursuant to an amendment thereto) in any replacement agreement thereto so long as any such amendment or replacement agreement is not more disadvantageous to the Holders in any material respect than the original agreements as in effect on the Issue Date; and

(xiii) transactions in which the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives a letter from an independent financial advisor stating that such transaction is fair to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view or meets the requirements of clause (1) of the preceding paragraph.

Section 4.15. Financial Calculations for Limited Condition Acquisitions.

When calculating the availability under any basket or ratio under this Indenture, in each case in connection with a Limited Condition Acquisition, the date of determination of such basket or ratio and of any Default or Event of Default shall, at the option of the Issuer, be the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Acquisition are entered into, and such baskets or ratios shall be calculated by the Issuer giving Pro Forma Effect to such Limited Condition Acquisition and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) as if they occurred at the beginning of the applicable period for purposes of determining the ability to consummate any such Limited Condition Acquisition (and not for purposes of any subsequent availability of any basket or ratio), and, for the avoidance of doubt, (x) if any of such baskets or ratios are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in such basket or ratio (including due to fluctuations in Consolidated Cash Flow of the Issuer or the target company) subsequent to such date of determination and at or prior to the consummation of the relevant Limited Condition Acquisition, such baskets or ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations solely for purposes of determining whether such Limited Condition Acquisition is permitted under this Indenture and (y) such baskets or ratios shall not be tested at the time of consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition or related transactions; provided, however, that if the Issuer elects to have such determinations occur at the time of entry into such definitive agreement, any such transactions (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) shall be deemed to have occurred on the date the definitive agreements are entered into and outstanding thereafter for purposes of calculating any baskets or ratios under this Indenture after the date of such agreement and before the consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition.

Section 4.16. [Reserved]

Section 4.17. Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

The Issuer’s Board of Directors may designate any Restricted Subsidiary (other than the Issuer) to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default. If a Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate fair market value of all outstanding Investments owned by the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary properly designated will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under the first

80

paragraph of Section 4.10 or Permitted Investments, as determined by the Issuer. That designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at the time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. The Issuer’s Board of Directors may redesignate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if the redesignation would not cause a Default.

Section 4.18. Repurchase at the Option of Holders Upon a Change of Control.

(a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Issuer shall make an offer to purchase (a “Change of Control Offer”) and each Holder shall have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase all or any part (equal to €100,000 or an integral multiple of €1,000) of such Holder’s Notes at a purchase price (the “Change of Control Payment”) in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the purchase date.

Section 4.20. Covenant Termination.

(a) If following the first day (a) the Notes of a series have achieved Investment Grade Status, and (b) no Default or event of Default has occurred and is continuing (the occurrence of the events described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) being collectively referred to as a “Covenant Termination Event” and the date of such Covenant Termination Event, as the “Termination Date”, then beginning on that day and continuing at all times thereafter regardless of any subsequent changes in the rating of the Notes of such series, the covenants in sections 4.09, 4.10, 4.13 (only to the extent related to properties or assets of the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries that do not constitute Collateral), 4.14, 4.17 and 5.01(iv), will no longer be applicable to the Notes of such series.

If the Issuer or any non-U.S. Guarantor is required to withhold or

83

deduct any amount for or on account of Taxes imposed by a Taxing Authority within Spain, Ireland, or any other Taxing Jurisdiction, from any payment made under or with respect to the Notes or the Guarantee of such non-U.S. Guarantor, the Issuer or such non-U.S. Guarantor will pay such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary so that the net amount received by each Holder of Notes after such withholding or deduction (including any withholding or deduction in respect of the payment of Additional Amounts) will equal the amount the Holder would have received if such Taxes had not been withheld or deducted; provided, however, that no Additional Amounts will be payable with respect to:

(1) any Tax imposed by the United States or by any political subdivision or Taxing Authority thereof or therein;

(2) any Taxes that would not have been so imposed, deducted or withheld but for the existence of any connection between the Holder or beneficial owner of a Note (or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder of, or possessor of power over, the Holder or beneficial owner of such Note, if the Holder or beneficial owner is an estate, nominee, trust, partnership or corporation) and the relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (other than the mere receipt of such payment or the ownership or holding of the execution, delivery, registration or enforcement of such note);

(3) any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, excise, transfer or personal property Tax or similar Tax, assessment or governmental charge, subject to Section 4.21(d) below;

(4) any Taxes payable other than by deduction or withholding from payments under or with respect to the Notes by the Issuer or under or with respect to the Guarantee by any non-U.S. Guarantor of such Note;

(5) any Taxes that would not have been so imposed, deducted or withheld if the Holder or beneficial owner of a Note or beneficial owner of any payment on the Note or the Guarantee of such Note had (i) made a declaration of non-residence, or any other claim or filing for exemption, to which it is entitled or (ii) complied with any certification, identification, information, documentation or other reporting requirement, with which it is entitled to comply concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the relevant Taxing Jurisdiction of such Holder or beneficial owner of such Note or any payment on such Note (provided that (x) such declaration of nonresidence or other claim or filing for exemption or such compliance is required by the applicable law of the Taxing Jurisdiction as a precondition to exemption from, or reduction in the rate of the imposition, deduction or withholding of, such Taxes and (y) at least 30 days prior to the first payment date with respect to which such declaration of non-residence or other claim or filing for exemption or such compliance is required under the applicable law of the Taxing Jurisdiction, Holders at that time have been notified by the Issuer or such Guarantor or any other Person through whom payment may be made that a declaration of non-residence or other claim or filing for exemption or such compliance is required to be made);

(6) any Taxes imposed, deducted or withheld due to the Issuer or the non-US Guarantors not receiving in a timely manner and in the legally prescribed form the

84

information required under Section 44 of Royal Decree 1065/2007, of July 27, 2007 and any implementing legislation or regulation;

(7) any Taxes that would not have been so imposed, deducted or withheld if the beneficiary of the payment had presented the Note for payment within 30 days after the date on which such payment or such note became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever is later (except to the extent that the Holder would have been entitled to Additional Amounts had the Note been presented on the last day of such 30-day period);

(8) any payment under or with respect to a Note to any Holder that is a fiduciary or partnership or any Person other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment or Note, to the extent that a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary, a member of such partnership or the beneficial owner of such payment or Note would not have been entitled to the Additional Amounts, or to a reduced amount of Additional Amounts, had such beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner been the actual Holder of such Note;

(9) any withholding or deduction in respect of any Tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge where such withholding or deduction is imposed or levied on a payment to an individual and is required to be made pursuant to European Council Directive 2003/48/EC or any other Directive implementing the conclusions of the ECOFIN Council meeting of November 26-27, 2000 on the taxation of savings income or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, such Directives; or

(10) any combination of items (1) through (9) of this Section 4.21(a).

The foregoing provisions shall survive any termination or discharge of this Indenture and payment of the Notes and shall apply mutatis mutandis to any Taxing Jurisdiction with respect to any successor Person to the Issuer or a non-U.S. Guarantor.

(b) The Issuer and each applicable non-U.S. Guarantor will also make any applicable withholding or deduction and remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant authority in accordance with applicable law. The Issuer and each applicable non-U.S. Guarantor will furnish to the Trustee, within 60 days after the date the payment of any Taxes deducted or withheld is due pursuant to applicable law, certified copies of tax receipts or, if such tax receipts are not reasonably available to the Issuer and such non-U.S. Guarantor, such other documentation that provides reasonable evidence of such payment by the Issuer and such nonU.S. Guarantor. Copies of such tax receipts or, if such tax receipts are not reasonably available, such other documentation will be made available to the Holders or the Paying Agent, as applicable, upon request.

(c) At least 30 days prior to each date on which any payment under or with respect to the Notes or any Guarantee is due and payable, if the Issuer or any non-U.S. Guarantor will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to such payment, the Issuer or such non-U.S. Guarantor shall deliver to the Trustee and the Paying Agent an Officer’s Certificate stating the

85

fact that such Additional Amounts will be payable and the amounts so payable and will set forth such other information necessary to enable such Trustee and Paying Agent to pay such Additional Amounts to Holders of such Notes on the payment date, unless such obligation to pay Additional Amounts arises after the 30th day prior to such date, in which case it shall be promptly paid thereafter.

Whenever in this Indenture there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of principal, premium, if any, interest or of any other amount payable under or with respect to any note, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof.

(d) The Issuer and each non-U.S. Guarantor will pay any present or future stamp, court or documentary Taxes or any other excise or property Taxes, charges or similar levies that arise in any jurisdiction from the execution, delivery, enforcement or registration of their respective Obligations and Guarantees of the Notes, this Indenture or any other document or instrument in relation thereto, excluding all such Taxes, charges or similar levies imposed by any jurisdiction outside the United States in which the Issuer or any non-U.S. Guarantor or any successor Person is organized or resident for tax purposes or any jurisdiction in which a paying agent is located, and the Issuer and each non-U.S. Guarantor will agree to indemnify the Holders of the Notes for any such non-excluded taxes paid by such Holders.

(e) The foregoing provisions of this Section 4.21 shall survive any termination or discharge of this Indenture and payment of the Notes and shall apply mutatis mutandis to any Taxing Jurisdiction with respect to any successor Person to the Issuer or a non-U.S. Guarantor.

The Issuer will notify the Trustee in writing of any delisting or change in listing.

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

(v) default under any agreement, bond, mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary) whether such Indebtedness or Guarantee now exists, or is created after the Issue Date, if that default:

(A) is caused by a failure to pay any scheduled installment of principal on such Indebtedness prior to the expiration of the grace period provided in such Indebtedness on the date of such default (a “Payment Default”); or

(B) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity, and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $375.0 million or more or such acceleration is with respect to the EIB Obligations; provided, however, where (i) neither the Issuer nor any Restricted Subsidiary has general liability with respect to such Indebtedness, and (ii) the creditor has agreed in writing that such creditor’s recourse is solely to specified assets or Unrestricted Subsidiaries, the amount of such Indebtedness shall be deemed to be the lesser of (x) the principal amount of such Indebtedness, and (y) the fair market value of such specified assets to which the creditor has recourse;

(vii) except as permitted by this Indenture, any Guarantee of a Significant Subsidiary, or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, shall be held in any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or shall cease for any reason to be in full force and effect or any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary, or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, or any Person acting on behalf of any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary, or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, shall deny or disaffirm in writing its obligations under its Guarantee;

(viii) the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, pursuant to or within the meaning of Bankruptcy Law:

Section 6.02. Acceleration.

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clauses (viii) or (ix) of Section 6.01 hereof, with respect to the Issuer), shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of such series then outstanding may declare to be immediately due and payable the principal amount of all the Notes of a series then outstanding, plus accrued but unpaid interest, if any, to the date of acceleration. In the case of an Event of Default specified in clauses (viii) or (ix) of Section 6.01 hereof, with respect to the Issuer shall occur, such amount with respect to all the Notes will become due and payable immediately without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or the Holders. Holders may not enforce this Indenture or the Notes except as provided in this Indenture. Subject to the limitations described in this Article 6, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of a series may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power with respect to such series. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes of a series notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default with respect to such a series (except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, if any) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest.

Section 6.03. Other Remedies.

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

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

Section 6.04. Waiver of Past Defaults.

Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of a series by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes of such series waive an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences hereunder, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or

90

interest on, the Notes of such series; provided, however, that after any acceleration, but before a judgment or decree based on acceleration is obtained by the Trustee, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of a series then outstanding may rescind and annul such acceleration if all Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of accelerated principal, premium or interest have been cured or waived as provided in this Indenture. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Section 6.05. Control by Majority.

Subject to Section 7.01, in case an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, neither the Trustee nor the Notes Collateral Agent, as the case may be, will be under any obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders of Notes of a series, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent, as applicable, indemnity or security, reasonably satisfactory to it, against any loss, liability or expense. Subject to Section 7.07, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent with respect to the Notes.

Section 6.06. Limitation on Suits.

No Holder of a Note of any series will have any right to institute any proceeding with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any remedy thereunder, unless:

(a) such Holder has previously given the Trustee notice that an Event of Default is continuing;

(b) Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of such series have requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

(c) such Holders have offered, and, if requested, have provided, the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense;

(d) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and

(e) Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of such series have not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period.

The preceding limitations do not apply to a suit instituted by a Holder for enforcement of payment of the principal of, and premium, if any, or interest on, a Note on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Note.

91

A Holder may not use this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder.

Section 6.07. Rights of Holders to Receive Payment.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note (including in connection with an offer to purchase), or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

Section 6.08. Collection Suit by Trustee.

If an Event of Default specified in clauses (i) or (ii) of Section 6.01 occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer for the whole amount of principal of, premium, if any, and interest, if any, remaining unpaid on the Notes of such series and interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

Section 6.09. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Notes), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to participate as a member, voting or otherwise, of any official committee of creditors appointed in such matter and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding, 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, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing 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 the Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

92

Section 6.10. Priorities.

If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article 6, it shall pay out the money in the following order:

First: to the Trustee and Notes Collateral Agent, its agents and attorneys for amounts due under Section 7.07 hereof, including payment of all compensation, expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and Notes Collateral Agent and the costs and expenses of collection;

(l) In no event shall the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent be responsible or liable for special, punitive, indirect, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent have been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

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

Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest, if any, on any Note, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of the Holders.

Section 7.06. [Reserved].

Section 7.07. Compensation and Indemnity.

The Issuer and Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall pay to the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder as agreed to in writing. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer and Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall reimburse the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s and Notes Collateral Agent’s agents and counsel.

The Issuer and Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall indemnify upon demand (and, with respect to any EEA Financial Institution, such amounts shall be due and payable no later than six (6) days following demand therefor) the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent or any predecessor Notes Collateral Agent against any and all losses, claims, damages, penalties, fines, liabilities or expenses, including incidental and out-of-pocket expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees (“losses”) incurred by it arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Issuer (including this Section 7.07) and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Issuer or any Holder or any other person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except to the extent any such losses may be attributable to its gross negligence or bad faith. The Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent shall notify the Issuer promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent to so notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer of its obligations hereunder. The Issuer shall defend the claim, and the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent shall cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Issuer shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Issuer need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Issuer need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss liability or expense incurred by the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent through the Trustee’s or the Notes Collateral Agent’s own willful misconduct, gross negligence or bad faith.

The obligations of the Issuer under this Section 7.07 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

97

To secure the Issuer’s payment obligations in this Section, the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent. Such Lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the exercise of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution with respect to the Issuer or any Guarantor that is an EEA Financial Institution.

When the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in clauses (viii) or (ix) of Section 6.01 hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

Section 7.08. Replacement of Trustee and Notes Collateral Agent.

A resignation or removal of the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent and appointment of a successor Trustee or Notes Collateral Agent shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s or Notes Collateral Agent’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section.

The Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent may resign in writing at any time upon 30 days prior notice to the Issuer and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so notifying the Issuer. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent by so notifying the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent and the Issuer in writing 30 days prior to such removal’s effectiveness. The Issuer may remove the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent if:

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

(b) the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent, as applicable, is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law;

(c) a custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent or either of their property; or

(d) the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent becomes incapable of acting.

If the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent for any reason, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Notes Collateral Agent. Within one year after the successor Trustee or Notes Collateral Agent takes office, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may appoint a successor Trustee or Notes Collateral Agent to replace the successor Trustee or Notes Collateral Agent appointed by the Issuer.

If a successor Trustee or Notes Collateral Agent does not take office within 30 days after the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent, as applicable, gives notice of resignation or receives notice of removal, the retiring Trustee or Notes Collateral Agent, as applicable, the Issuer, or the Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee or Notes Collateral Agent.

98

If the Trustee, after written request by any Holder who has been a Holder for at least six months, fails to comply with Section 7.10, such Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

A successor Trustee or Notes Collateral Agent shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee or Notes Collateral Agent and to the Issuer. Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee or Notes Collateral Agent shall become effective, and the successor Trustee or Notes Collateral Agent shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee or Notes Collateral Agent under this Indenture. The successor Trustee or Notes Collateral Agent shall mail a notice of its succession to Holders. Subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.07 hereof, the retiring Trustee or Notes Collateral Agent shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee or Notes Collateral Agent to the successor Trustee or Notes Collateral Agent; provided, however, that all sums owing to the Trustee or Notes Collateral Agent hereunder shall have been paid. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Issuer’s obligations under Section 7.07 hereof shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee or Notes Collateral Agent.

Section 7.09. Successor Trustee by Merger, etc.

If the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all ofits corporate trust business to, another corporation, the successor corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee.

Section 7.10. Eligibility; Disqualification.

There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a Person organized and doing business under the laws of (i) the United States of America or of any state thereof or (ii) England and Wales, that in each case, is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, and that is subject to supervision or examination, in the case of (i), by federal or state authorities, or in the case of (ii), by authorities in England and Wales. Any successor trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition.

Section 7.11. Notes Collateral Agent.

(a) The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch, is hereby designated and appointed as the Notes Collateral Agent of the Notes Secured Parties under this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement, and The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch hereby accepts such designation and appointment.

(b) By accepting a Note, each Holder will be deemed to have irrevocably appointed the Notes Collateral Agent to act as its agent under the Security Documents and the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement and to have irrevocably authorized the Notes Collateral Agent to (i) perform the duties and exercise the rights, powers and discretions that are specifically given to it under the Security Documents, the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement or other documents to which it is a party, together with any other incidental rights, powers and discretions; and (ii) execute each document expressed to be executed by the Notes Collateral Agent on its behalf.

99

Each of the Holders hereby exempts the Notes Collateral Agent from any restrictions on representing several persons and self- dealing under any applicable law to the extent legally possible for such Holder. Each Holder agrees that any action taken by the Notes Collateral Agent in accordance with the provision of this Indenture, the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents, and the exercise by the Notes Collateral Agent of any rights or remedies set forth herein and therein shall be authorized and binding upon all Holders. The provisions of this Section 7.11 are solely for the benefit of the Notes Collateral Agent and none of the Trustee, any of the Holders nor any of the Grantors shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions contained herein.

(c) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement, the duties of the Notes Collateral Agent shall be ministerial and administrative in nature, and the Notes Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Note Documents to which the Notes Collateral Agent is a party, nor shall the Notes Collateral Agent have or be deemed to have any trust or other fiduciary relationship with the Trustee, any Holder or any Grantor, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement or otherwise exist against the Notes Collateral Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” or “Agent” in this Indenture and the other Security Documents with reference to the Notes 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) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Notes Collateral Agent shall solely act pursuant to the instructions of the Holders and the Trustee with respect to the Security Documents and the Collateral. The Notes Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Indenture, the Security Documents or the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Trustee or the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of a series as it determines and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Holders against any and all loss, liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Notes Collateral Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Indenture, the Security Documents or the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement in accordance with a request, direction, instruction or consent of the Trustee or the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of a series and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Holders of such series. After the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Trustee or the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of a series may direct the Notes Collateral Agent in connection with any action required or permitted by this Indenture, the Security Documents or the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement with respect to such series. For the avoidance of doubt, the Notes Collateral Agent shall have no discretion under this Indenture, the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement or the Security Documents and shall not be required to make or give any determination, consent, approval,

100

request or direction without the written direction of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes or the Trustee, as applicable.

(e) The Notes Collateral Agent is authorized and empowered to appoint one or more subagents or co-collateral agents as it deems necessary or appropriate, including without limitation the collateral agents under the Credit Facilities (including any successor collateral agents under the Credit Facilities).

(f) The Notes Collateral Agent shall have all the rights and protection provided in the Security Documents as well as the rights and protections afforded to the Trustee in Sections 7.02 and 7.07 hereof; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Notes Collateral Agent through the Notes Collateral Agent’s own willful misconduct or gross negligence, as determined by a final non- appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(g) None of the Trustee, the Notes Collateral Agent or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys or agents will be responsible or liable for the existence, genuineness, value or protection of any Collateral, for the legality, enforceability, effectiveness or sufficiency of the Security Documents, for the creation, perfection, continuation of perfection, priority, sufficiency or protection of any Lien securing the Notes (including without limitation the filing or continuation of any UCC financing or continuation statements or similar documents or instruments) or any defect or deficiency as to any such matters, except to the extent any possessory collateral is delivered to the Notes Collateral Agent for perfection purposes. The Notes Collateral Agent shall not be required to initiate or conduct any litigation or collection or other proceeding under this Indenture, the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure, or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities, and powers granted or available to the Notes Collateral Agent pursuant to this Indenture, any Security Document or the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement other than pursuant to the instructions of the Trustee or the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission, or event related thereto, the Notes Collateral Agent shall have no other duty or liability whatsoever to the Trustee or any Holder as to any of the foregoing unless expressly set forth hereunder or thereunder.

(h) Subject to the Security Documents and the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement, except as directed by the Trustee as required or permitted by this Indenture, the Notes Collateral Agent will not be obligated:

(i) to act upon directions purported to be delivered to it by any Person;

(ii) to foreclose upon or otherwise enforce any Lien securing the Notes; or

(iii) to take any other action whatsoever with regard to any or all of the Liens securing the Notes, Security Documents or the Collateral.

(i) In acting as Notes Collateral Agent, co-collateral agent or sub-collateral agent, the Notes Collateral Agent, each co-collateral agent and each sub-collateral agent shall be entitled to,

101

and may rely upon and enforce each and all of the rights, powers, immunities, indemnities and benefits of the Trustee under this Indenture.

(j) Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof, the Notes 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 Notes 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 it 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 Notes Collateral Agent in good faith.

(k) The Notes Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of the Issuer to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral.

(l) In the event that the Notes Collateral Agent is required to acquire title to an asset for any reason, or take any managerial action of any kind in regard thereto, in order to carry out any fiduciary or trust obligation for the benefit of another, which in the Notes Collateral Agent’s sole discretion may cause the Notes Collateral Agent, to be considered an “owner or operator” under any environmental laws or otherwise cause the Notes Collateral Agent to incur, or be exposed to, any environmental liability or any liability under any other federal, state or local law, the Notes Collateral Agent reserves the right, instead of taking such action, either to resign as Notes Collateral Agent or to arrange for the transfer of the title or control of the asset to a court appointed receiver. The Notes Collateral Agent will not be liable to any person for any environmental liabilities and costs or any environmental liabilities or contribution actions under any federal, state or local law, rule or regulation by reason of the Notes Collateral Agent’s actions and conduct as authorized, empowered and directed hereunder or relating to any kind of discharge or release or threatened discharge or release of any hazardous materials into the environment.

(m) The Notes Collateral Agent is authorized to accept, take and hold any security interest and Collateral (including, without limitation any pledges, whether possessory or non-possessory) for the benefit of the Notes Secured Parties and to be their agent and representative with respect to the Collateral and the Security Documents (including, without limitation, by administering and enforcing remedies with respect to such Collateral and Security Documents). For the avoidance of doubt, the Notes Collateral Agent is authorized to execute, sign, amend, extend, ratify and raise to the status of public deed any documents (whether public or private) to formalize, perfect or enforce any security interest (including, without limitation any pledges, whether possessory or non-possessory) for the benefit of the Notes Secured Parties. Furthermore, the Notes Collateral Agent is authorized to appear before any administrative authority and sign and file with any authority or register, for the benefit of the Notes Secured Parties, the necessary documents for the validity, perfection and/or effectiveness of any security.

Section 8.01. Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

The Issuer may, at its option and at any time, elect to have either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof be applied to all outstanding Notes of any series upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article 8.

Section 8.02. Legal Defeasance and Discharge.

Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the Issuer and the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from their respective obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes and Guarantees of a series, on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, the Issuer shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes of a series, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Notes of such series and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (a) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes of such series to receive solely from the trust fund described in Section 8.04 hereof, and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on such Notes of such series when such payments are due, (b) the Issuer’s obligations with respect to the Notes of such series under Article 2 and Section 4.02 hereof, (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent hereunder and the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ obligations with respect to such series in connection therewith and (d) this Article 8. If the Issuer exercises under Section 8.01 hereof the option applicable to this Section 8.02, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, payment of the Notes of such series may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default. Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Issuer may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.03 hereof.

Section 8.03. Covenant Defeasance.

Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Issuer and the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from their respective obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.03, 4.05, 4.06, 4.08 through 4.14, and 4.17 through 4.19 hereof, and the operation of Section 5.01(iv) hereof, with respect to the outstanding Notes of such series on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes of such series shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the

103

purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes of such series shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes of such series, the Issuer may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes of such series shall be unaffected thereby. If the Issuer exercises under Section 8.01 hereof the option applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, payment of the Notes of such series may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in clauses (iii), (iv) (with respect to the covenants contained in Sections 4.03, 4.05, 4.06, 4.08 through 4.14, and 4.17 through 4.19 hereof), (v), (vi), (vii), (viii) and (ix) (but in the case of clauses (viii) and (ix) of Section 6.01 hereof, with respect to Significant Subsidiaries only).

Section 8.04. Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance.

The following shall be the conditions to the application of either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof to the outstanding Notes of such series. The Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance may be exercised only if:

(a) the Issuer irrevocably deposits with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes of a series, cash in Euros, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination of cash in Euros and non-callable Government Securities, in amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of an internationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants as selected by the Issuer, to pay the principal of, or interest and premium, if any, on the outstanding Notes of such series on the Stated Maturity or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Issuer must specify whether the Notes of such series are being defeased to maturity or to a particular redemption date;

(b) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuer delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee (which Opinion of Counsel may be subject to customary assumptions and exclusions) confirming that (a) the Issuer has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (b) since the Issue Date, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income Tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel will confirm that, the Holders of the outstanding Notes of such series will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income Tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred;

(c) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuer delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee (which Opinion of Counsel may be subject to customary assumptions and exclusions) confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Notes of

104

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

(d) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit);

(e) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under any material agreement or instrument (including, without limitation, the Credit Agreement, but excluding this Indenture) to which the Issuer or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Issuer or any Guarantor is bound;

(f) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuer with the intent of preferring the Holders of Notes of such series over the Issuer’s or any Restricted Subsidiary’s other creditors with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding the Issuer’s or any Restricted Subsidiary’s creditors or others; and

(g) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and a customary Opinion of Counsel (which Opinion of Counsel may be subject to customary assumptions and exclusions), each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with.

Section 8.05. Deposited Money and Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions.

Subject to Section 12.03 hereof, all money and Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof in respect of the outstanding Notes of a series shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes of such series and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

The Issuer shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes.

Anything in this Article 8 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Issuer from time to time upon the request of the Issuer any money or Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 hereof which, in the opinion of an internationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the certification delivered under

105

Section 8.04(b) hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

Section 8.06. [Reserved].

Section 8.07. Reinstatement.

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any Euros or Government Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Issuer makes any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

ARTICLE 9

AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER

Section 9.01. Without Consent of Holders of Notes.

Notwithstanding Section 9.02 of this Indenture, the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent, as applicable, may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Notes of any series, the Guarantees, the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement or the Security Documents; without the consent of any Holder to:

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

(d) make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of the Notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights hereunder of any such Holder;

(e) to add additional assets as Collateral or to release Collateral from the Lien pursuant to this Indenture and the Security Documents when permitted or required by this Indenture, the Security Documents and/or the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement or to modify the Security Documents and/or the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement to secure additional extensions of credit and add additional secured creditors holding Obligations that are permitted

106

to constitute Pari Passu Lien Obligations under the Security Documents pursuant to the terms of this Indenture;

(f) add covenants for the benefit of the Holders or to surrender any right or power conferred upon the Issuer or any Guarantor;

(g) add a Guarantor under this Indenture;

(h) conform the text of this Indenture, the Guarantees or the Notes to any provision of the Description of Notes to the extent that such provision in the Description of Notes was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of this Indenture, the Guarantees or the Notes;

(i) provide for the issuance of Additional Notes of a series in accordance with the limitations as set forth in this Indenture;

(j) provide for a successor Trustee or Notes Collateral Agent, as the case may be, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture or Security Documents, as applicable, or to otherwise comply with any requirement of this Indenture or Security Documents;

(k) comply with the rules of any applicable securities depositary;

(l) to add additional assets as Collateral.

Upon the request of the Issuer accompanied by a Board Resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent of the documents described in Sections 7.02 and 9.06 hereof, the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent shall join with the Issuer in the execution of any amended or supplemental indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of this Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but neither the Trustee nor the Notes Collateral Agent shall be obligated to enter into such amended or supplemental indenture that affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

Section 9.02. With Consent of Holders of Notes.

Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Notes Collateral Agent and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Notes of any series, the Guarantees, the Security Documents or the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes, including Additional Notes, if any, then outstanding voting as a single class (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes); provided that (x) if any such amendment, supplement or waiver will only affect one series of Notes (or less than all series of Notes) then outstanding under this Indenture, then only the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes of such series then outstanding (including, in each case, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for Notes) shall be required and (y) if any such amendment or waiver by its terms will affect a series of Notes in a manner different and materially adverse relative to the manner such amendment or waiver affects other series of Notes, then the consent of the Holders of a

107

majority in principal amounts of the Notes of such series then outstanding (including, in each case, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of or tender offer or exchange offer for Notes) shall be required; and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, any existing Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, except a payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with any provision of this Indenture, the Notes of any series, the Guarantees, the Security Documents or the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of a series, including Additional Notes of such series, if any, voting as a single class (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes with respect to such series). For the avoidance of doubt, the determination of whether any amendment, supplement or waiver has been consented to by Holders of a series of Notes shall, where applicable, include any Additional Notes of such series that have been issued under this Indenture at any time prior to, concurrently or contemporaneously with the time that such amendment, supplement or waiver becomes operative.

Upon the request of the Issuer accompanied by a Board Resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amendment or supplement, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders of Notes as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02 hereof, the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent shall join with the Issuer in the execution of such amendment or supplement unless such amendment or supplement directly adversely affects the Trustee’s or the Notes Collateral Agent’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent, as applicable, may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such amendment or supplement.

The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Persons entitled to consent to any indenture supplemental hereto. If a record date is fixed, the Holders on such record date, or their duly designated proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled to consent to such supplemental indenture, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided, that unless such consent shall have become effective by virtue of the requisite percentage having been obtained prior to the date which is 90 days after such record date, any such consent previously given shall automatically and without further action by any Holder be cancelled and of no further effect.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section becomes effective, the Issuer shall send to the Holders to such Holder’s address appearing in the securities register maintained in respect of the Notes by the Registrar (the “Security Register”) a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Issuer to send such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental indenture or waiver. Subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes, including Additional Notes, if

108

any, then outstanding voting as a single class may waive compliance in a particular instance by the Issuer with any provision of this Indenture or the Notes.

Without the consent of each Holder of the applicable series of Notes adversely affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder):

(a) reduce the principal amount of Notes of such series whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;

(b) reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note of such series or alter the provisions with respect to the redemption of the Notes (other than the minimum notice provisions required with respect to the redemption of the Notes);

(c) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest on the Notes of such series (other than the minimum notice provisions required with respect to redemption of such series);

(d) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on the Notes of such series (except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes of such series by the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of such series and a waiver of the Payment Default that resulted from such acceleration);

(e) make any Note of such series payable in currency other than that stated in the Notes;

(f) impair the right of any Holder of such series to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment of principal of, and interest on such Holder’s Notes of such series on or after the due dates therefor;

(g) waive a redemption payment with respect to any Note of such series (other than a payment required by one of the covenants under this Indenture);

(h) make any change in the preceding amendment and waiver provisions; or

(i) release all or substantially all of the Guarantors from their Guarantees, in each case, except in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.

Additionally, without the consent of the Holders of at least 90% in principal amount of the notes then outstanding of a series, no such amendment, waiver or modification may (1) release all or substantially all of the Collateral from the Liens securing such series of Notes and Guarantees, (2) change or alter the priority of the Liens, (3) make any change in the Security Documents, the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement or the provisions in this Indenture dealing with the application of proceeds of the Collateral that would adversely affect Holders of the Notes or (4) modify the Security Documents, the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement or the provisions in this Indenture dealing with Collateral in any manner adverse to the Holders of the

109

Notes in any material respect other than in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement or the Security Documents.

No amendment of, or supplement or waiver to, this Indenture, the Notes or the Security Documents shall be permitted to be effected if such amendment, supplement or waiver is in violation of or inconsistent with the terms of the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement. No amendment of, or supplement or waiver to, the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement shall be permitted to be effected without the consent of the Notes Collateral Agent, other than pursuant to the terms thereof.

Section 9.03. [Reserved].

Section 9.04. Revocation and Effect of Consents.

Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion thereof that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to its Note or portion thereof if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the Trustee receives an Officer’s Certificate certifying that the Holders of the requisite principal amount of Notes have consented (and theretofore not revoked such consent) to the amendment, supplement or waiver.

Section 9.05. Notation on or Exchange of Notes.

The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Issuer in exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver.

Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

Section 9.06. Trustee and Notes Collateral Agent to Sign Amendments, etc.

The Trustee and, as applicable, the Notes Collateral Agent, shall sign any amendment or supplement authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee, and as applicable, the Notes Collateral Agent. The Issuer and, as applicable, the Notes Collateral Agent may not sign an amendment or supplement until its Board of Directors approves it. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent shall be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) shall be fully protected in relying upon an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such amended or supplemental indenture is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions and that such amended or supplemental indenture complies with the provisions hereof.

ARTICLE 10

GUARANTEES

Section 10.01. Guarantee.

Subject to this Article 10, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent and their successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Issuer hereunder or thereunder, that:

(a) the principal of premium, if any, and interest on the Notes shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Issuer to the Holders, the Trustee or the Notes 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 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 pursuant to Section 6.02 hereof or otherwise. Failing payment when due 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. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations with regard to this Guarantee shall be joint and several, unconditional, irrespective of the validity or enforceability of the Notes or the obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer or any other obligor with respect to this Indenture, the Notes or the Obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture or the Notes, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstances (other than complete performance) which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a Guarantor. Each Guarantor further, to the extent permitted by law, waives and relinquishes all claims, rights and remedies accorded by applicable law to guarantors and agrees not to assert or take advantage of any such claims, rights or remedies, including but not limited to: (a) any right to require any of the Trustee, the Notes Collateral Agent, the Holders or the Issuer (each a “Benefited Party”), as a condition of payment or performance by such Guarantor, to (1) proceed against the Issuer, any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the Obligations under the Guarantees or any other Person, (2) proceed against or exhaust any security held from the Issuer, any such other guarantor or any other Person, (3) proceed against or have resort to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Benefited Party in favor of the Issuer or any other Person, or (4) pursue any other remedy in the power of any Benefited Party whatsoever; (b) any defense arising by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense of the Issuer including any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of the Obligations under the Guarantees or any agreement or instrument relating thereto or by reason of the cessation of the liability of the Issuer from any cause other than payment in full of the

111

Obligations under the Guarantees; (c) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal; (d) any defense based upon any Benefited Party’s errors or omissions in the administration of the Obligations under the Guarantees, except behavior which amounts to bad faith; (e) (1) any principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, which are or might be in conflict with the terms of the Guarantees and any legal or equitable discharge of such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, (2) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting such Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof, (3) any rights to set-offs, recoupments and counterclaims and (4) promptness, diligence and any requirement that any Benefited Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien or any property subject thereto; (f) notices, demands, presentations, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of any action or inaction, including acceptance of the Guarantees, notices of Default under the Notes or any agreement or instrument related thereto, notices of any renewal, extension or modification of the Obligations under the Guarantees or any agreement related thereto, and notices of any extension of credit to the Issuer and any right to consent to any thereof; (g) to the extent permitted under applicable law, the benefits of any “One Action” rule; and (h) any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by law which limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or which may conflict with the terms of the Guarantees. Each Guarantor hereby covenants that its Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in its Guarantee and this Indenture.

If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Issuer or the Guarantors, any amount paid by either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Guarantee, 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, the Notes Collateral Agent and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Section 6.02 hereof for the purposes of this Guarantee, 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 Section 6.02 hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Guarantee. The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Guarantee.

Section 10.02. Limitation on Guarantor Liability.

Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Notes Collateral Agent, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of

112

such Guarantor under this Article 10 shall be limited to the maximum amount as shall, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, including, if applicable, its guarantee of all obligations under the Credit Agreement, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 10, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

Section 10.03. Execution and Delivery of Guarantee.

To evidence its Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 hereof, each Guarantor hereby agrees that a notation of such Guarantee in substantially the form included in Exhibit G shall be endorsed by an Officer of such Guarantor on each Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee.

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Guarantee.

If an Officer whose signature is on any supplemental indenture or on the Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note on which a Guarantee is endorsed, the Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless.

The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors.

Section 10.04. Guarantors May Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 10.05 hereof, no Guarantor may sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets to, or consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving Person) another Person, other than the Issuer or another Guarantor, unless:

(i) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists; and

(ii) either:

(A) Subject to Section 10.05 hereof, the Person acquiring the property in any such sale or disposition or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than a Guarantor) unconditionally assumes all the obligations of that Guarantor under this Indenture and its Guarantee on the terms set forth herein or therein, pursuant to a supplemental indenture in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee; or

(B) The Net Proceeds of such sale or other disposition are applied in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture, including without limitation, Section 4.12 hereof.

113

(b) In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance and upon the assumption by the successor Person, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the Guarantee endorsed upon the Notes and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be performed by the Guarantor, such successor Person shall succeed to and be substituted for the Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named herein as a Guarantor. Such successor Person thereupon may cause to be signed any or all of the Guarantees to be endorsed upon all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Issuer and delivered to the Trustee. All the Guarantees so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Guarantees had been issued at the date of the execution hereof.

(c) Except as set forth in Articles 4 and 5 hereof, and notwithstanding clauses (a)(ii)(A) and (B) above, nothing contained in this Indenture or in any of the Notes shall prevent any consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into the Issuer or another Guarantor, or shall prevent any sale or conveyance of the property of a Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the Issuer or another Guarantor.

Section 10.05. Release of Guarantees.

The Guarantee of a Guarantor shall be unconditionally released and discharged, and no further action by such Guarantor, the Issuer or the Trustee is required for the release of such Guarantor’s Guarantee:

(1) (a) in connection with (i) any sale or other disposition of all of the assets of that Guarantor (including by way of merger or consolidation) to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer’s, if the sale or other disposition comply with the provisions of Section 4.12 or (ii) any sale of all of the Capital Stock of a Guarantor to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer, if the sale complies with the provisions of Section 4.12, in each case as provided in Section 4.12;

(b) if the Issuer designates any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with Section 4.17;

(c) upon Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance pursuant to Article 8 and upon a discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Section 12.01;

(d) if such Guarantor is released (or is being simultaneously released) from its obligation as borrower of or to Guarantee any Indebtedness under any Credit Facility, as applicable (other than if such Guarantor no longer Guarantees any such Indebtedness as a result of payment, under any Guarantee or otherwise of any such Indebtedness by any Guarantor); provided that a Guarantor shall not be permitted to be released from its Guarantee pursuant to this clause (d) if it is an obligor with respect to such Indebtedness that would not, pursuant to Section 4.09, be permitted to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor,

114

unless such Guarantor is also designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary at the time of such release, or such Guarantor becomes an Immaterial Subsidiary; or

(e) if pursuant to the provisions of the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement.

(2) such Guarantor delivering to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to such transaction have been complied with.

(c) to induce the title company to issue the endorsements with respect to the Mortgage Policies referred to in Section 11.07(b) for the benefit of the Senior Credit Facilities Collateral Agent, such affidavits, certificates, information and instruments of indemnification as shall be reasonably required by the respective title company, together with payment by the Issuer of all Mortgage Policy premiums, search and examination charges, mortgage recording taxes,

118

(ii) all Notes of such series that have not been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (A) have become due and payable by reason of the delivery of a notice of redemption or otherwise, (B) will become due and payable within one year, and the Issuer has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders of Notes of such series, cash in Euros, non-callable Government Securities, or (C) a combination of cash in euros and non-callable Government Securities, in such amounts as will be sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on the Notes of such series not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest, if any, to the date of maturity or redemption;

(b) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit) and such deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other instrument to which the Issuer or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Issuer or any Guarantor is bound;

EACH OF THE ISSUER, THE GUARANTORS, THE HOLDERS, THE TRUSTEE AND THE NOTES COLLATERAL AGENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE

123

FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE, THE NOTES, THE GUARANTEES OR THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

Section 13.13. Agent for Service; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Immunities.

Each of the parties hereto irrevocably agrees that any suit, action or proceeding arising out of, related to, or in connection with this Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees and any supplemental indenture or the transactions contemplated hereby, and any action arising under U.S. federal or state securities laws, may be instituted in any U.S. federal or state court located in the State and City of New York, Borough of Manhattan; irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such proceeding; and irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action or proceeding. The Issuer and each of the Guarantors has appointed Grifols Shared Services North America, Inc., with the address 2410 Lillyvale Ave., Los Angeles, CA 90032- 3514 as its authorized agent upon whom process may be served in any such suit, action or proceeding which may be instituted in any federal or state court located in the State of New York, Borough of Manhattan arising out of or based upon this Indenture, the Notes or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, and any action brought under U.S. federal or state securities laws (the “Authorized Agent”). The Issuer and each of the Guarantors expressly consents to the jurisdiction of any such court in respect of any such action and waives any other requirements of or objections to personal jurisdiction with respect thereto and waives any right to trial by jury. Such appointment shall be irrevocable unless and until replaced by an agent reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. The Issuer and each of the Guarantors represents and warrants that the Authorized Agent has agreed to act as said agent for service of process, and the Issuer agrees to take any and all action, including the filing of any and all documents and instruments, that may be necessary to continue such appointment in full force and effect as aforesaid. Service of process upon the Authorized Agent and written notice of such service to the Issuer shall be deemed, in every respect, effective service of process upon the Issuer and any Guarantor.

Section 13.14. Judgment Currency.

Euro is the sole currency of account and payment for all sums payable by the Issuer or any Guarantor under the Notes, any Guarantee thereof and this Indenture. Any payment on account of an amount that is payable in Euro, in respect of the Notes, which is made to or for the account of any Holder or the Trustee in lawful currency of any other jurisdiction (the “Judgment Currency”), whether as a result of any judgment or order or the enforcement thereof or the liquidation of the Issuer or any Guarantor, shall constitute a discharge of the Issuer or the Guarantor’s obligation under this Indenture and the Notes or Guarantee and/or any supplemental indenture, as the case may be, only to the extent of the amount of Euro which could be purchased in the London foreign exchange markets with the amount of the Judgment Currency in accordance with normal banking procedures at the rate of exchange prevailing on the first Business Day following receipt of the payment in the Judgment Currency. If the amount of Euro that could be so purchased is less than the amount of Euro originally due to such Holder or the Trustee, as the case may be, the Issuer and the Guarantors shall indemnify and hold harmless the

124

Holder or the Trustee, as the case may be, from and against all loss or damage arising out of, or as a result of, such deficiency. The indemnity shall constitute an obligation separate and independent from the other obligations contained in this Indenture or the Notes, shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, shall apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by any Holder or the Trustee from time to time and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order for a liquidated sum in respect of an amount due hereunder or under any judgment or order.

Section 13.15. Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-in of EEA Financial Institutions.

Notwithstanding and to the exclusion of any other term of this Indenture or any other agreements, arrangements, or understanding between the BRRD Party and the Issuer, the Issuer acknowledges and accepts that a BRRD Liability arising under this Indenture may be subject to the exercise of Bail-in Powers by the Relevant Resolution Authority, and acknowledges, accepts, and agrees to be bound by:

Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

1. Interest. The Issuer promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this 2025 Note at 1.625% per annum until maturity. The Issuer shall pay interest semi-annually on February 15 and August 15 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each an “interest payment date”). Interest on the 2025 Notes shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance; provided, however, that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this 2025 Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding interest payment date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding interest payment date; provided, further, that the first interest payment date shall be February 15, 2020. The Issuer shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at a rate that is 1% per annum in excess of the rate then in effect; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful.

7. Redemption for Taxation Reasons. The 2025 Notes may be redeemed, at the option of the Issuer, as a whole but not in part, upon giving not less than 15 days’ nor more than 60 days’ notice to Holders (which notice will be irrevocable), at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest (including any Additional Amounts), if any, to the date fixed by the Issuer for redemption if, as a result of:

(1) any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of a Taxing Jurisdiction affecting taxation; or

(2) any change in, or amendment to, an official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings (including a holding, judgment or order by a court of competent jurisdiction), which change or amendment becomes effective on or after the date on which such jurisdiction becomes a Taxing Jurisdiction, and the Issuer or any Guarantor, as the case may be, is, or on the next interest payment date would be, required to pay Additional Amounts, and such requirement cannot be avoided by the Issuer or any Guarantor, as the case may be, taking reasonable measures available to it; provided that for the avoidance of doubt, changing the jurisdiction of the Issuer or any Guarantor is not a reasonable measure for the purposes of Section 3.10 of the Indenture; provided, further, that no such notice of redemption will be given earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer or any Guarantor, as the case may be, would be obligated to pay such Additional Amounts if a payment in respect of the 2025 Notes were then due.

Prior to the transmission of any notice of redemption of the 2025 Notes pursuant to the foregoing, the Issuer will deliver to the Trustee:

(1) an Officer's Certificate stating that such change or amendment referred to in the prior paragraph has occurred, and describing the facts related thereto and stating that such requirement cannot be avoided by the Issuer or Guarantor, as the case may be, taking reasonable measures available to it; and

(2) an Opinion of Counsel of recognized international standing stating that the requirement to pay such Additional Amounts results from such change or amendment referred to in the prior paragraph.

The Trustee will accept such certificate and opinion as sufficient evidence of the satisfaction of the conditions precedent described above, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on the Holders.

Any 2025 Notes that are redeemed will be cancelled.

A-7

8. Mandatory Redemption.

(a) The Issuer shall not be required to make sinking fund payments with respect to the 2025 Notes. However, under certain circumstances, the Issuer may be required to offer to repurchase the 2025 Notes pursuant to Sections 3.09, 4.12 and 4.18 of the Indenture.

(b) In addition, the Issuer and its Subsidiaries may acquire 2025 Notes by means other than a redemption or required repurchase whether by tender offer, open market purchases, negotiated transactions or otherwise, in accordance with applicable securities laws, so long as such acquisition does not otherwise violate the terms of the Indenture.

9. Repurchase at the Option of Holder.

(a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Issuer shall make an offer to purchase (a “Change of Control Offer”) and each Holder shall have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase all or any part (equal to €100,000 or an integral multiple of €1,000) of such Holder’s 2025 Notes at a purchase price (the “Change of Control Payment”) in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the purchase date. The Issuer shall purchase all 2025 Notes validly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer and not withdrawn.

The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase, pursuant to Section 3.09 of the Indenture, and shall be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by the Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of 2025 Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness validly and properly tendered and not withdrawn into such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee (or applicable depository) will select the 2025 Notes and the Issuer or the trustee, agent or other similar party with respect to such other pari passu Indebtedness will select such Indebtedness to be purchased as described in Article 3 in the Indenture. Holders of 2025 Notes that are the subject of an offer to purchase will receive an Asset Sale Offer from the Issuer prior to any related purchase date and may elect to have such 2025 Notes purchased by completing the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the 2025 Notes. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero.

10. Notice of Redemption. The Issuer shall mail or cause to be mailed notice of redemption by first class mail at least 15 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder whose 2025 Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the 2025 Notes or a satisfaction or discharge of the Indenture. 2025 Notes in denominations larger than €100,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of €1,000 in excess thereof, unless all of the 2025 Notes held by a Holder are

A-8

to be redeemed. On and after the redemption date, interest ceases to accrue on 2025 Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

11. Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The 2025 Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of €100,000 and integral multiples of €1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of 2025 Notes may be registered and 2025 Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Issuer may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any 2025 Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of 2025 Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a record date and the corresponding interest payment date.

12. Persons Deemed Owners. The registered holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes.

13. Amendment, Supplement and Waiver. The Indenture, the Guarantees or the 2025 Notes may be amended or supplemented as provided in the Indenture.

14. Defaults and Remedies. The Events of Default relating to the 2025 Notes are defined in Section 6.01 of the Indenture. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the rights and obligations of the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders shall be set forth in the applicable provisions of the Indenture.

15. Trustee Dealings with the Issuer. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Issuer or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as Trustee or resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to Section 7.10 of the Indenture.

16. No Recourse Against Others. No past, present or future director, officer, employee, partner, manager, agent, member, incorporator (or Person forming any limited liability company) or stockholder of the Issuer or of any Guarantor, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or any Guarantor under the Indenture, the 2025 Notes, the Guarantees or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note and the guarantee waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the 2025 Notes and guarantee. Such waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws.

17. Authentication. This Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent.

In addition to the rights provided to Holders of 2025 Notes under the Indenture, in the case of Additional 2025 Notes, Holders of Restricted Global 2025 Notes and Restricted Definitive 2025 Notes shall have the rights set forth in one or more registration rights agreements, if any, among the Issuer and the other parties thereto, relating to rights given by the Issuer to the purchasers of any Additional 2025 Notes.

(2) any change in, or amendment to, an official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings (including a holding, judgment or order by a court of competent jurisdiction), which change or amendment becomes effective on or after the date on which such jurisdiction becomes a Taxing Jurisdiction, and the Issuer or any Guarantor, as the case may be, is, or on the next interest payment date would be, required to pay Additional Amounts, and such requirement cannot be avoided by the Issuer or any Guarantor, as the case may be, taking reasonable measures available to it; provided that for the avoidance of doubt, changing the jurisdiction of the Issuer or any Guarantor is not a reasonable measure for the purposes of Section 3.10 of the Indenture; provided, further, that no such notice of redemption will be given earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer or any Guarantor, as the case may be, would be obligated to pay such Additional Amounts if a payment in respect of the 2027 Notes were then due.

Prior to the transmission of any notice of redemption of the 2027 Notes pursuant to the foregoing, the Issuer will deliver to the Trustee:

(1) an Officer's Certificate stating that such change or amendment referred to in the prior paragraph has occurred, and describing the facts related thereto and stating that such requirement cannot be avoided by the Issuer or Guarantor, as the case may be, taking reasonable measures available to it; and

(2) an Opinion of Counsel of recognized international standing stating that the requirement to pay such Additional Amounts results from such change or amendment referred to in the prior paragraph.

The Trustee will accept such certificate and opinion as sufficient evidence of the satisfaction of the conditions precedent described above, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on the Holders.

Any 2027 Notes that are redeemed will be cancelled.

8. Mandatory Redemption.

(a) The Issuer shall not be required to make sinking fund payments with respect to the 2027 Notes. However, under certain circumstances, the Issuer may be required to offer to repurchase the 2027 Notes pursuant to Sections 3.09, 4.12 and 4.18 of the Indenture.

(b) In addition, the Issuer and its Subsidiaries may acquire 2027 Notes by means other than a redemption or required repurchase whether by tender offer, open market purchases, negotiated transactions or otherwise, in accordance with applicable securities laws, so long as such acquisition does not otherwise violate the terms of the Indenture.

9. Repurchase at the Option of Holder.

(a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Issuer shall make an offer to purchase (a “Change of Control Offer”) and each Holder shall have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase all or any part (equal to €100,000 or an integral multiple of €1,000) of such Holder’s 2027 Notes at a purchase price (the “Change of Control Payment”) in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the purchase date. The Issuer shall purchase all 2027 Notes validly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer and not withdrawn.

(b) If the Issuer or one of the Restricted Subsidiaries consummates any Asset Sale, when the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $200.0 million, the Issuer shall make an Asset Sale Offer pursuant to Section 4.12 of the Indenture. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase, pursuant to Section 3.09 of the Indenture, and shall be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by the Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of 2027 Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness validly and properly tendered and not withdrawn into such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee (or applicable depository) will select the 2027 Notes and the Issuer or the trustee, agent or other similar party with respect to such other pari passu Indebtedness will select such Indebtedness to be purchased as described in Article 3 in the Indenture. Holders of 2027 Notes that are the subject of an offer to purchase will receive an Asset Sale Offer from the Issuer prior to any related purchase date and may elect to have such 2027 Notes purchased by completing the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the 2027 Notes. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero.

10. Notice of Redemption. The Issuer shall mail or cause to be mailed notice of redemption by first class mail at least 15 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder whose 2027 Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the 2027 Notes or a satisfaction or discharge of the Indenture. 2027 Notes in denominations larger than €100,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of €1,000 in excess thereof, unless all of the 2027 Notes held by a Holder are

B-8

to be redeemed. On and after the redemption date, interest ceases to accrue on 2027 Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

11. Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The 2027 Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of €100,000 and integral multiples of €1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of 2027 Notes may be registered and 2027 Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Issuer may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any 2027 Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of 2027 Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a record date and the corresponding interest payment date.

12. Persons Deemed Owners. The registered holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes.

13. Amendment, Supplement and Waiver. The Indenture, the Guarantees or the 2027 Notes may be amended or supplemented as provided in the Indenture.

14. Defaults and Remedies. The Events of Default relating to the 2027 Notes are defined in Section 6.01 of the Indenture. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the rights and obligations of the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders shall be set forth in the applicable provisions of the Indenture.

15. Trustee Dealings with the Issuer. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Issuer or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as Trustee or resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to Section 7.10 of the Indenture.

16. No Recourse Against Others. No past, present or future director, officer, employee, partner, manager, agent, member, incorporator (or Person forming any limited liability company) or stockholder of the Issuer or of any Guarantor, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or any Guarantor under the Indenture, the 2027 Notes, the Guarantees or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a 2027 Note and the guarantee waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the 2027 Notes and guarantee. Such waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws.

17. Authentication. This 2027 Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent.

B-9

18. Abbreviations. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).

19. ISIN and Common Code Numbers. The Issuer has caused Common Code numbers to be printed on the 2027 Notes and the Trustee may use Common Code numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. In addition, the Issuer has caused ISIN numbers to be printed on the 2027 Notes and the Trustee may use ISIN numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of any such numbers either as printed on the 2027 Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

20. Additional Rights of Holders of Restricted Global 2027 Notes and Restricted Definitive 2027 Notes. In addition to the rights provided to Holders of 2027 Notes under the Indenture, in the case of Additional 2027 Notes, Holders of Restricted Global 2027 Notes and Restricted Definitive 2027 Notes shall have the rights set forth in one or more registration rights agreements, if any, among the Issuer and the other parties thereto, relating to rights given by the Issuer to the purchasers of any Additional 2027 Notes.

21. Governing Law. The internal law of the State of New York shall govern and be used to construe the Indenture, this 2027 Note and the Guarantees without giving effect to applicable principles of conflicts of law to the extent that the application of the laws of another jurisdiction would be required thereby.

The Issuer shall furnish to any Holder upon written request and without charge a copy of the Indenture. Requests may be made to:
