“Acceleration Premium” means, with respect to any Securities on any applicable acceleration date, the present value at such acceleration date of all required and unpaid interest payments due on such Security through the Stated Maturity of the Securities (excluding accrued but unpaid interest to the acceleration date), computed using a discount rate equal to the relevant Acceleration Premium Treasury Rate as of such acceleration date plus 50 basis points, as calculated by the Company or its agent; the Trustee shall have no responsibility to calculate or verify the calculation of the Acceleration Premium.

“Acceleration Premium Treasury Rate” means, as of the applicable acceleration date, the yield to maturity as of such acceleration date of United States Treasury securities with a constant maturity (as compiled and published in the most recent Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) that has become publicly available two Business Days prior to such acceleration date (or, if such Statistical Release is no longer published, any publicly available source of similar market data)) most nearly equal to the period from such acceleration date to the Stated Maturity, provided, however, that if the period from such acceleration date to the Stated Maturity is less than one year, the weekly average yield on actually traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to a constant maturity of one year will be used.

“Acquired Debt” means Indebtedness of a Person:

(1)existing at the time such Person is merged or consolidated with or into the Company or any Subsidiary or becomes a Subsidiary of the Company but only to the extent not paid in connection with such merger or consolidation; or

(2)assumed by the Company or any Subsidiary in connection with the acquisition of assets from such Person.

Acquired Debt shall be deemed to be Incurred on the date the acquired Person is merged or consolidated with or into the Company or any Subsidiary or becomes a Subsidiary of the Company or the date of the related acquisition, as the case may be, determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

(2)the Capital Stock of a Person that becomes a Subsidiary as a result of the acquisition of such Capital Stock by the Company or another Subsidiary; or

“Applicable Procedures” means, with respect to any matter at any time, the policies and procedures of the Depository, if any, that are applicable to such matter at such time.

Article 2
The Securities

Section 2.01 Form and Dating.

Certain provisions relating to the Securities are set forth in the Appendix attached hereto (the “Appendix”), which is hereby incorporated in, and expressly made a part of, the Indenture. The Securities and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A, which is hereby incorporated in, and expressly made a part of, this Indenture. The Securities may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule, agreements to which the Company or any Guarantor is subject, if any, or usage (provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Company). Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. The Securities shall be in minimum denominations of $1.00 and integral multiples of $1.00 thereof. The terms and provisions contained in the Securities shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture and each of the Company, the Guarantors, the REIT and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agrees to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision

39

of any Security conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

The aggregate principal amount of Securities that may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is limited to $455,000,000, and the Company may not “re-open” this Indenture to issue additional Securities after the Issue Date, in each case, except for Securities issued upon registration of transfer of, or exchange for, or in lieu of other Securities pursuant to Sections 2.06, 2.07, 2.09, 3.06, 4.03, 4.04 or 9.05 or pursuant to Sections 2.3 or 2.4 of the Appendix.

Section 2.02 Execution and Authentication. An Officer of the Company shall sign the Securities for the Company by manual, facsimile or other electronic signature.

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

A Security shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on the Security. The manual signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Security has been authenticated under this Indenture.

The Trustee shall, upon the written direction of the Company, authenticate and make available for delivery Securities, as set forth in Section 2.2 of the Appendix.

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent reasonably acceptable to the Company to authenticate the Securities. Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an instrument signed by a Trust Officer, a copy of which shall be furnished to the Company. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate Securities 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 any Registrar, Paying Agent or agent for service of notices and demands.

Section 2.03 Registrar and Paying Agent. The Company shall maintain an office or agency where Securities may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange for other Securities (the “Registrar”) and an office or agency where Securities may be presented for payment (the “Paying Agent”). The Registrar shall keep a register (the “Security Register”) of the Securities and of their transfer and exchange. The Company may have one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar; and the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent.

The Company shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Registrar, Paying Agent or co-registrar not a party to this Indenture, which shall incorporate the terms of the TIA. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The Company shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of any such agent. If the Company fails to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 7.07. The Company or any Wholly Owned Subsidiary incorporated or organized within the United States of America may act as Paying Agent, Registrar, co-registrar or transfer agent.

40

The Company initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar and Paying Agent in connection with the Securities and the Trustee accepts such appointment as the initial Registrar and Paying Agent.

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

With respect to any Global Securities, the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee shall be the office of agency where such Global Securities may be presented or surrendered for payment or for registration of transfer or exchange, or where successor Securities may be delivered in exchange therefor; provided, however, that any such presentation, surrender or delivery effected pursuant to the Applicable Procedures of the Depository shall be deemed to have been effected at such office or agency in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.

Whenever any Security is held by a Holder that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, then it is the intention of the Company and such Holder that (x) all interest accrued and paid on such Security will be eligible to qualify for exemption from United States withholding tax (excluding United States withholding tax imposed by Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (“FATCA”)) as “portfolio interest” because such Security is an obligation which is in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 871(h)(2)(B) and 881(c)(2)(B) of the Code (or any successor provision thereto) and the applicable Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, and (y) as such, to the extent the requirements relating to the “portfolio interest” exemption are satisfied, all interest accrued and paid on this Security will be exempt from United States information reporting under Sections 6041 and 6049 of the Code and United States backup withholding under Section 3406 of the Code. The Company (or its agents), on the one hand, and the applicable Holder, on the other, shall reasonably cooperate with one another, and execute and file such forms or other documents, or do or refrain from doing such other acts, as may be required, to secure exemption from United States withholding tax (including FATCA), information reporting, and backup withholding, as applicable. In furtherance of the foregoing, any Holder, transferee or assignee Holder may from time to time provide (x) any applicable U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-9, W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8ECI or W-8IMY (with any applicable attachments) or applicable successor form, and (y) to the extent such Holder, transferee or assignee Holder, or the beneficial owner of the Security, as applicable, is not a United States person and is claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest,” a certificate reasonably satisfactory to the Company to the effect that such Holder, transferee or assignee Holder, or the beneficial owner of the Security, as applicable, is not (i) a “10-percent shareholder” of the Company within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, (ii) a “controlled foreign corporation” related to the Company as described in Section 881(c)(3)(C), or (iii) a “bank”

41

extending credit to the Company in the ordinary course of its trade or business as described in Section 881(c)(3)(A). The Company shall take into account such documentation in good faith.

Section 2.04 Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. Prior to each due date of the principal and interest or premium on any Security, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or if the Company or a Wholly Owned Subsidiary is acting as Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto) a sum sufficient to pay such principal and interest and premium, when so becoming due. The Company 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 Securityholders and the Trustee and the Collateral Agent all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of or cash interest on the Securities and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment. If the Company or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money held by it as Paying Agent and hold it as a separate trust fund. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by the Paying Agent. Upon complying with this Section, the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the Trustee. Upon any Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(6) or (7), the Trustee shall automatically serve as the Paying Agent for the Securities.

Section 2.05 Securityholder Lists. The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Securityholders and shall otherwise comply with TIA § 312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company shall furnish, or cause the Registrar to furnish, to the Trustee, in writing at least five Business Days before each Interest Payment Date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of Securityholders and the Company shall otherwise comply with TIA § 312(a).

Section 2.06 Transfer and Exchange. The Securities shall be issued in registered form and shall be transferable only upon the surrender of a Security for registration of transfer in compliance with the Appendix. When a Security is presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to register a transfer, the Registrar shall register the transfer as requested if the requirements of this Indenture and Section 8-401(a) of the Uniform Commercial Code are met. When Securities are presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Securities of other denominations, the Registrar shall make the exchange as requested if the same requirements are met. To permit registration of transfers and exchanges for other Securities, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Securities at the Company’s request. The Company may require the Securityholders to make a payment of a sum sufficient to pay all taxes, assessments or other governmental charges in connection with any transfer or exchange pursuant to this Section (other than any such transfer taxes, assessments or similar governmental charge payable upon exchanges not involving any transfer pursuant to Sections 2.06, 2.07, 2.09, 3.06, 4.03 and 9.05 of this Indenture or Sections 2.3 or 2.4 of the Appendix). The Company shall not be required to make and the Registrar need not register transfers or exchanges of Securities selected for redemption (except, in the case of Securities to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed) or any Securities for a period of 15 days before a selection of Securities to be redeemed or 15 days before an Interest Payment Date.

42

Prior to the due presentation for registration of transfer of any Security, the Company, the REIT, the Guarantors, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar or any co-registrar may deem and treat the person in whose name a Security is registered as the absolute owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security is overdue, and none of the Company, the REIT, the Guarantors, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar or any co-registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Any holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Security shall, by acceptance of such beneficial interest, agree that transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Security may be effected only through a book-entry system maintained by (a) the holder of such Global Security (or its agent) or (b) any holder of a beneficial interest in such Global Security, and that ownership of a beneficial interest in such Global Security shall be required to be reflected in a book entry.

All Securities issued upon any transfer or exchange for other Securities pursuant to the terms of this Indenture shall evidence the same debt and shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as the Securities surrendered upon such transfer or exchange.

Section 2.07 Replacement Securities. If a mutilated Security is surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder of a Security claims that the Security has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company shall issue and the Trustee, upon the Company’s written instruction, shall authenticate a replacement Security if the requirements of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code are met and the Holder (a) satisfies the Company and the Trustee within a reasonable time after such Holder has notice of such loss, destruction or wrongful taking and the Registrar does not register a transfer prior to receiving such notification, (b) makes such request to the Company and the Trustee prior to the Security being acquired by a protected purchaser as defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code and (c) satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Company, the REIT, the Guarantors and the Trustee. If required by the Trustee or the Company, such Holder shall furnish an indemnity bond sufficient in the judgment of the Company to protect the Company, the REIT, the Guarantors, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar and any co-registrar and in the judgment of the Trustee to protect the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar and any of the Trustee’s agents from any loss which any of them may suffer if a Security is replaced. The Company and the Trustee may charge the Holder for their expenses in replacing a Security (including without limitation attorneys’ fees and disbursements in replacing such Security). Every replacement Security is an additional Obligation of the Company.

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

Section 2.08 Outstanding Securities. Securities outstanding at any time are all Securities authenticated by the Trustee except for those cancelled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this Section as not outstanding. Subject to Section 11.06, a Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Security.

43

If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee and the Company receive proof satisfactory to them that the replaced Security is held by a protected purchaser (as defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code).

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

Section 2.09 Temporary Securities. In the event that Definitive Securities are to be issued under the terms of this Indenture, until such Definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Securities. Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of Definitive Securities but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Securities. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Securities and make them available for delivery in exchange for temporary Securities upon surrender of such temporary Securities at the office or agency of the Company, without charge to the Holder. Until such exchange, temporary Securities shall be entitled to the same rights, benefits and privileges as Definitive Securities.

Section 2.10 Cancellation. The Company at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange for other Securities or payment. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel and destroy (subject to the record retention requirements of the Exchange Act) all Securities surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange for other Securities, payment or cancellation in accordance with the Trustee’s customary procedures and, upon written request, deliver a certificate of such destruction to the Company. The Company may not issue new Securities to replace Securities it has redeemed, paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. The Trustee shall not authenticate Securities in place of cancelled Securities other than pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.

Section 2.11 Defaulted Interest. If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Securities, the Company shall pay defaulted interest at the rate per annum shown on the Security (plus interest on such defaulted interest to the extent lawful) in any lawful manner.

to construct or improve (or in the case of clause (E), the repayment of Indebtedness previously secured by) such Permitted Excess Cash Use Assets (or 45 days in the case of a mortgage), (i) (x) the Subsidiary owning such Permitted Excess Cash Use Assets (and each other Subsidiary owning (directly or indirectly) Capital Stock in such Subsidiary) shall be a Subsidiary Guarantor or become a Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to Section 4.07 and (y) the Collateral Agent has been granted a valid, enforceable perfected first-priority security interest (subject only to Permitted Collateral Liens) in such Permitted Excess Cash Use Assets in accordance with Section 4.14 and (ii) in the manner specified in Section 12.02(c) and Section 12.04(e) of this Indenture, the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor shall have executed and delivered to the Collateral Agent such Security Documents referred to therein or as shall otherwise be reasonably necessary to vest in the Collateral Agent a valid, enforceable perfected security interest or other Liens in or on such Permitted Excess Cash Use Assets and to have such Permitted Excess Cash Use Assets added to the Collateral, together with appropriate Opinions of Counsel (of scope and substance substantially the same as the Issue Date Opinions, if any) with respect to, among other things, the creation, validity, perfection, enforceability and priority of such Security Documents and an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel as to the satisfaction of the foregoing requirements (such Opinions of Counsel and Officer’s Certificate also to be delivered to the Trustee); and thereupon all provisions of this Indenture relating to the Collateral shall be deemed to relate to such Permitted Excess Cash Use Assets to the same extent and with the same force and effect.

Any Net Available Cash from any Asset Sale (including any Collateral Disposition but excluding any Asset Sale of a Property, or of the Capital Stock of a Subsidiary solely owning a Property, set forth in Category 8 on Annex I hereto) or a Joint Venture Disposition that is not applied as provided in, and within the applicable 360 day or 720 day time period set forth in, the preceding paragraph of this Section 4.03 will constitute “Asset Sale Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Asset Sale Excess Proceeds exceeds $50.0 million (any aggregate amount of Asset Sale Excess Proceeds first exceeding such threshold amount being referred to as an “Asset Sale Trigger Event”), within ten Business Days thereof, the Company will (x) make an Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer to all Holders of Securities to purchase the maximum principal amount of Securities that may be purchased at the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer Price in an amount equal to the portion of such Asset Sale Excess Proceeds equal to the sum of (i) the Pro Rata Percentage Amount with respect to such Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer applicable to the Securities plus (ii) the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Other Secured Notes Unused Amount, if any, with respect to such Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer and (y) substantially concurrently therewith effect an Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Other Offer with respect to the Other Secured Notes in accordance with the Other Secured Notes Indenture. “Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer Price” means, as to any Securities to be purchased in any Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer, (i) an amount equal to 102% for Assets Sales of Collateral (other than any Event of Loss), (ii) an amount equal to 100% for Asset Sales of non-Collateral and (iii) an amount equal to 100% for Asset Sales constituting Events of Loss, in the case of each of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), of the principal amount of the Securities plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer Purchase Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date that is on or prior to the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer Purchase Date). Such Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer will be payable in cash. For the avoidance of doubt, the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer Price set forth in this paragraph shall override the optional redemption price set forth in Section 3.08 of this Indenture. The Company may, at its option, satisfy

56

the foregoing obligations with respect to an Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer prior to the expiration of the applicable 360 day or 720 day period or prior to receiving more than $50.0 million of Asset Sales Excess Proceeds.

On the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer Purchase Date, the Company will deposit with the Paying Agent and the paying agent under the Other Secured Notes Indenture, respectively, such amount as will enable (i) the Trustee, to the extent of the Securities tendered in such Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer, to apply the portion of such Asset Sale Excess Proceeds equal to the sum of (x) the Pro Rata Percentage Amount with respect to such Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer applicable to the Securities plus (y) the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Other Secured Notes Unused Amount, if any, with respect to such Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer to the repurchase, at the applicable Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer Price, of Securities validly tendered and accepted for purchase in the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer and (ii) the Other Secured Notes Trustee, to the extent of Other Secured Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase in the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Other Offer, apply the portion of such Asset Sale Excess Proceeds equal to the sum of (x) the Pro Rata Percentage Amount with respect to such Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Other Offer applicable to the Other Secured Notes plus (y) the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Securities Unused Amount. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company’s making of any Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer shall not constitute a redemption of Securities pursuant to Article 3 or paragraph 5 of the Securities.

If any Asset Sale Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer and the related Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Other Secured Notes Offer, the Company may use those Asset Sale Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer Price payable with respect to the aggregate principal amount of Securities tendered into such Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer exceeds the sum of (x) the Pro Rata Percentage Amount with respect to such Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer applicable to the Securities plus (y) the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Other Secured Notes Unused Amount, if any, with respect to such Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer, the Trustee will select the Securities to be purchased on a pro rata basis on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of validly tendered Securities. Upon surrender of a Security that is repurchased in part, the Company shall issue in the name of the applicable Holder and the Trustee shall authenticate for such Holder at the expense of the Company a new Security equal in principal amount to the non-repurchased portion of the Security surrendered. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer, the amount of Asset Sale Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero.

The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with each repurchase of Securities pursuant to an Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.03, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under such provisions by virtue of such compliance.

In the event that, pursuant to this Section 4.03 hereof, the Company shall be required to commence an offer (an “Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer”) to all Holders to purchase the maximum principal amount of Securities that may be purchased at the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds

57

Offer Price with an amount equal to the sum of (x) the Pro Rata Percentage Amount with respect to such Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer applicable to the Securities plus (y) the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Other Secured Notes Unused Amount, if any, with respect to such Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer (the “Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer Amount”), the Company shall follow the procedures specified below:

(a)The Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer shall remain open for a period of 20 Business Days following its commencement and no longer, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer Period”). No later than five Business Days after the termination of the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer Period (the “Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer Purchase Date”), the Company shall purchase and pay the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer Price with respect to all Securities validly tendered and accepted for purchase, or if the amount of Securities validly tendered at the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer Price with respect to all Securities validly tendered is greater than the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer Amount, the Company shall purchase and pay for Securities validly tendered at the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer Price in an aggregate amount equal to the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Amount. Payment for any Securities so purchased shall be made in the manner prescribed in the Securities.

(b)Upon the commencement of an Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer, the Company shall send a notice to each of the Holders with a copy to the Trustee. The notice shall contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Securities pursuant to the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer. The Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer shall be made to all Holders. The notice, which shall govern the terms of the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer, shall state:

(1)that the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.03 hereof, and the length of time the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer shall remain open, including the time and date the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer will terminate (the “Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Termination Date”);

(2)the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer Price;

(3)that the aggregate amount to be applied to purchase the Securities in the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer will consist of an amount equal to the Pro Rata Percentage Amount applicable to the Securities (and specifying such amount) plus, depending on the extent to which Other Secured Notes are not tendered in the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Other Offer being conducted substantially concurrently with such Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer, an additional amount not to exceed the Pro Rata Percentage Amount applicable to the Other Secured Notes (and specifying such other amount);

(4)that any Security not tendered or accepted for payment shall continue to accrue interest;

(5)that, unless the Company defaults in making such payment, any Security accepted for payment pursuant to the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer shall cease to accrue interest after the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer Purchase Date;

58

(6)that Holders electing to have a Securit y purchased pursuant to any Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer shall be required to surrender the Sec urity, properly endorsed for transfer, together with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the Security completed and such customary documents as the Company may reasonably request, to the Company or a Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice, before the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Termination Date;

(7)that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Company or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, prior to the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Termination Date, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Security the Holder delivered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Security purchased;

(8)that, if the aggregate principal amount of Securities surrendered by Holders at the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer Price exceeds the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer Amount, the Trustee shall select the Securities to be purchased on a pro rata basis on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of validly tendered Securities (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Trustee so that only Securities in denominations of $1.00, or integral multiples of $1.00 in excess of $1.00, shall be purchased); and

(9)that Holders whose Securities were purchased only in part shall be issued new Securities equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Securities surrendered, which unpurchased portion must be equal to $1.00 in principal amount or an integral multiple of $1.00 in excess of $1.00.

If any of the Securities subject to an Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer is in the form of a Global Security, then the Company shall modify such notice to the extent necessary to accord with the procedures of the Depository applicable to repurchases.

Promptly after the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Termination Date, the Company shall, to the extent lawful, accept for payment Securities or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer in the aggregate principal amount required by this Section 4.03 hereof, and prior to the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer Purchase Date the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that such Securities or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Company in accordance with the terms of this Section 4.03. Prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer Purchase Date, the Company or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, shall mail or deliver to each tendering Holder an amount equal to the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer Price with respect to the aggregate principal amount of the Securities validly tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Company for purchase, and the Company shall issue a new Security, and the Trustee shall authenticate and mail or deliver such new Security to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Security surrendered. Any Security not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Company to the Holder thereof. The Company shall publicly announce the results of the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer on or before the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer Purchase Date.

59

Section 4.04 Redemption Upon Release Trigger Event. No later than the fifth (5th) Business Day after the occurrence of a Release Trigger Event, the Company shall deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee specifying (i) such Release Trigger Event and the Collateral Release Excess Proceeds in respect thereof; (ii) any Property or Capital Stock that has become Excluded Released Property as a result of such Release Trigger Event; and (iii) any Subsidiary tha t has become an Excluded Non-Guarantor Subsidiary as a result of such Release Trigger Ev ent. The Company will, within 25 Business Days after the receipt of Net Available Cash (other than (1) proceeds from (x) Recourse Indebtedness permitted to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.02(b)(14) or (y) Non-Recourse Mortgage Indebtedness permitted to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.02, in either case used solely for the construction or development of any Property that has been approved by the Board s of Directors of both the Company and the REIT and used for the purpose of financing a property development project, which shall not be subject to this Section 4.04 and (2) any Excluded Release Trigger Event Proceeds (as defined below) with respect to such Release Trigger Event) from any Release Trigger Event (such Net Available Cash, excluding any such proceeds specified in clause (1)(x) or (y) above and any Excluded Release Trigger Event Proceeds, the “Collateral Release Excess Proceeds”) in an aggregate amount that exceeds $25.0 million, (i) redeem (a “Collateral Release Excess Proceeds Redemption”) all or such portion of Securities at the redemption price set forth in Section 3.07 in effect on the redemption date including accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date (the “Collateral Release Excess Proceeds Redemption Price”) (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date that is on or prior to the redemption date) (such redemption date, the “Collateral Release Excess Proceeds Redemption Date”); provided that the Collateral Release Excess Proceeds Redemption Date shall be at least five (5) Business Days after the expiration date of the Collateral Release Excess Proceeds Offer with respect to such Release Trigger Event required to be made by the Company to the Other Secured Noteholders pursuant to the Other Secured Notes Indenture; and (ii) substantially concurrently therewith, effect a Collateral Release Excess Proceeds Offer with respect to the Other Secured Notes in accordance with the Other Secured Notes Indenture in an amount equal to the Pro Rata Percentage Amount applicable to the Other Secured Notes with respect to such Release Trigger Event. The principal amount of Securities to be redeemed on the Collateral Release Excess Proceeds Redemption Date shall be the maximum principal amount of Securities for which the aggregate Collateral Release Excess Proceeds Redemption Price does not exceed the sum of (i) the Pro Rata Percentage Amount applicable to the Securities with respect to such Release Trigger Event plus (ii) the Collateral Release Excess Proceeds Other Secured Notes Unused Amount. For the avoidance of doubt, upon completion of each Collateral Release Excess Proceeds Redemption and the substantially concurrent Collateral Release Excess Proceeds Offer, there will remain no unapplied amount of such Collateral Release Excess Proceeds. The Company may, at its option, satisfy the foregoing obligations with respect to a Collateral Release Excess Proceeds Redemption and concurrent Collateral Release Excess Proceeds Offer prior to having more than $25.0 million of Collateral Release Excess Proceeds.

For purposes of this Section 4.04, “Excluded Release Trigger Event Proceeds” means, with respect to any Release Trigger Event, such portion of the Net Available Cash of any Release Trigger Event (not to exceed 30% of such Net Available Cash) as the Company shall, at its option, with the approval of the Boards of Directors of both the Company and the REIT, use to repay at a discount Non-Recourse Mortgage Indebtedness or Recourse Indebtedness of any Excluded Non-

60

Guarantor Subsidiary owning any Property that immediately prior to such repayment does not constitute Collateral (such Property, “Trigger Release Replacement Property”); provided that (i) as a result of such repayment, such Non-Recourse Mortgage Indebtedness or Recourse Indebtedness is satisfied and discharged in its entirety and, simultaneously with such repayment, all Liens on such Trigger Release Replacement Property and any other property or assets of the Company or any Subsidiary securing such Indebtedness are released; (ii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof; (i ii) such Trigger Release Replacement Property shall be deemed listed under Category 1 on Annex I hereto and the Company shall promptly deliver to the Collateral Agent the documents and certificates required by Section 4.14 and Article 12 of this Indenture; and (i v) prior to or simultaneously with or within ten (10) Business Days after the repayment of the Indebtedness previously secured by such Trigger Release Replacement Property (or 45 days in the case of a mortgage), (i) (x) the Subsidiary owning such Trigger Release Replacement Property (and each other Subsidiary owning (directly or indirectly) Capital Stock in such Subsidiary) shall be a Subsidiary Guarantor or become a Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to Section 4.07 and (y) the Collateral Agent has been granted a valid, enforceable perfected first-priority security interest (subject only to Permitted Collateral Liens) in such Trigger Release Replacement Property in accordance with Section 4.14 and (ii) in the manner specified in Section 12.02(c) and Section 12.04(e) of this Indenture, the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor shall have executed and delivered to the Collateral Agent such Security Documents referred to therein or as shall otherwise be reasonably necessary to vest in the Collateral Agent a valid, enforceable perfected security interest or other Liens in or on such Trigger Release Replacement Property and to have such Trigger Release Replacement Property added to the Collateral, together with appropriate Opinions of Counsel (of scope and substance substantially the same as the Issue Date Opinions, if any) with respect to, among other things, the creation, validity, perfection, enforceability and priority of such Security Documents and an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel as to the satisfaction of the foregoing requirements (such Opinions of Counsel and Officer’s Certificate also to be delivered to the Trustee); and thereupon all provisions of this Indenture relating to the Collateral shall be deemed to relate to such Trigger Release Replacement Property in the same extent and with the same force and effect. For the avoidance of doubt, Excluded Release Trigger Event Proceeds shall not be Collateral Release Excess Proceeds subject to this Section 4.04.

Pending the final application of any Net Available Cash from any Collateral Release Excess Proceeds Redemption, upon the actual receipt by the Company or a Subsidiary of the Net Available Cash attributable to Collateral Release Excess Proceeds, (i) the Company will notify the Collateral Agent of such receipt and (ii) the Company shall cause, or cause such Subsidiary to cause, such amounts (such amounts, the “Pending Redemption Cash”) to be deposited directly by the Company or such Subsidiary in a deposit account subject to a valid and perfected Lien in favor of the Collateral Agent free of any other Lien (other than the Lien of the Secured Debt Documents or any other Permitted Collateral Lien), and the Pending Redemption Cash will constitute Collateral pending application in the Collateral Release Excess Proceeds Redemption or Collateral Release Excess Proceeds Offer.

On the Collateral Release Excess Proceeds Redemption Date, the Company will deposit with the Trustee such respective portions of the Collateral Release Excess Proceeds as will enable the Trustee, to the extent of the Securities to be redeemed in such Collateral Release Excess Proceeds Redemption, to apply the portion of such Collateral Release Excess Proceeds equal to

61

the product of (x) the amount of the Securities to be redeemed in the Collateral Release Excess Proceeds Redemption and (ii) the Collateral Release Excess Proceeds Redemption Price plus accrued and unpaid interest to but excluding the Collateral Release Excess Proceeds Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date).

Any Collateral Release Excess Proceeds Redemption shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Article 3.

(9)transactions between the Company or any Subsidiary and any Person, a director of which is also a director of the Company or any director or indirect parent company of the Company, and such director is the sole cause for such Person to be deemed an Affiliate of the Company or any Subsidiary; provided, however, that such director shall abstain from voting as a director of the Company or such direct or indirect parent company, as the case may be, on any matter involving such other Person;

(c)(i) If the Securities are accelerated or otherwise become due prior to their Stated Maturity, in each case, in respect of any Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(6) or (7) with respect to the Company (including the acceleration of claims by operation of law) occurring on or after [May 15], 2023, the amount of the principal and premium due on the Securities shall equal the redemption price applicable to an optional redemption of the Securities as set forth in Section 3.08 in effect on the date of such acceleration as if such acceleration were an optional redemption of the Securities accelerated (the “Redemption Price Premium”), and the Redemption Price Premium (including principal) and all accrued and unpaid interest will be immediately due and payable as though the Securities were optionally redeemed.

(ii) If the Securities are accelerated or otherwise become due prior to their Stated Maturity, in each case, in respect of any Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(6) or (7) with respect to the Company (including the acceleration of claims by operation of law) in the case of an Event of Default occurring prior to [May 15], 2023, the amount of principal of, accrued and unpaid interest and premium on the Securities that becomes due and payable shall equal 100% of the principal amount of the Securities plus the Acceleration Premium plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.

(iii) In any such case of clauses (i) or (ii) above, the Redemption Price Premium or the Acceleration Premium, as applicable, shall constitute part of the Notes Obligations, in view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Holders on the other hand as to a reasonable calculation of each Holder’s lost profits as a result thereof. Any Redemption Price Premium or Acceleration Premium, as applicable, payable pursuant to the above shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by each Holder as the result of the acceleration, and each of the Company and the Guarantors agrees that it is reasonable under the circumstances. The Redemption Price Premium or the Acceleration Premium, as applicable, shall also be payable in the event the Securities (and/or this Indenture) are satisfied or released by foreclosure (whether by

78

power of judicial proceeding), deed in lieu of foreclosure or by any other means. EACH OF THE COMPANY AND THE GUARANTORS EXPRESSLY WAIVES (TO THE FULLEST EXTENT IT MAY LAWFULLY DO SO) THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE FOREGOING PREMIUMS IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACCELERATION, ANY RESCISSION OF SUCH ACCELERATION OR THE COMMENCEMENT OF ANY BANKRUPTCY OR INSOLVENCY EVENT. Each of the Company and the Guarantors expressly agrees (to the fullest extent it may lawfully do so) that: (A) each of the Redemption Price Premium and the Acceleration Premium is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (B) the Redemption Price Premium or the Acceleration Premium, as applicable shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (C) there has been a course of conduct between Holders, the Company and the Guarantors giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Redemption Price Premium or the Acceleration Premium, as applicable; and (D) the Company and the Guarantors shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph. Each of the Company and the Guarantors expressly acknowledges that its agreement to pay the Redemption Price Premium or the Acceleration Premium, as applicable, to the Holders as herein described is a material inducement to Holders to purchase the Securities.

Section 6.03 Other Remedies. Subject to the Collateral Agency and Intercreditor Agreement, if an Event of Default occurs and is continuing and subject to the Trustee’s receipt of written direction from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal of or interest and premium on the Securities or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Securities, this Indenture and the Security Documents.

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Securities or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Securityholder 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. No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. To the extent required by law, all available remedies are cumulative.

Section 6.04 Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities by written notice to the Trustee (including, without limitation, in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Securities) may waive an existing Default and its consequences except a Default (a) in the payment of the principal of or interest and premium on a Security, (b) arising from the failure to redeem or purchase any Security when required pursuant to this Indenture or (c) in respect of a provision that under Section 9.02 cannot be amended without the consent of each Securityholder affected. When a Default is waived, it is deemed cured and the Company, the Trustee and the Securityholders shall be restored to their former position and rights under this Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any consequent right.

Section 6.05 Control by Majority. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee.

79

However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or, subject to Section 7.01, that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Securityholders or would involve the Trustee in personal liability; provided, however, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction. Prior to taking any action hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses, liabilities and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.

Section 6.06 Limitation on Suits. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium or interest when due, no Securityholder may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Securities unless:

(1)the Holder gives to the Trustee written notice stating that an Event of Default is continuing;

(2)the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

(3)such Holder or Holders offer to the Trustee security or indemnity acceptable to the Trustee in its sole discretion against any loss, liability or expense;

(4)the Trustee does not comply with the written request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and

(5)the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities do not give the Trustee a written direction inconsistent with the request during such 60-day period.

A Securityholder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Securityholder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Securityholder. In the event that the Definitive Securities are not issued to any beneficial owner promptly after the Registrar has received a request from the Holder of a Global Security (as defined in the Appendix) to issue such Definitive Securities to such beneficial owner of its nominee, the Company expressly agrees and acknowledges, with respect to the right of any Holder to pursue a remedy pursuant to this Indenture, the right of such beneficial holder of Securities to pursue such remedy with respect to the portion of the Global Security that represents such beneficial holder’s Securities as if such Definitive Securities had been issued.

Section 6.07 Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of and interest and premium on the Securities held by such Holder, on the respective due dates expressed in the Securities (or, in the case of a redemption, on the redemption date or, in the case of a purchase, on the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer Purchase Date), or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

Section 6.08 Collection Suit by Trustee. Subject to the Collateral Agency and Intercreditor Agreement, if an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(1) or (2) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust

80

against the Company for the whole amount then due and owing (together with interest on any unpaid interest to the extent lawful) and the amounts provided for in Section 7.07, and against the REIT for any amounts owed by it under the terms of the Limited Guarantee.

Section 6.09 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and the Securityholders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company, the REIT, its creditors or its property and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may vote on behalf of the Holders in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing similar functions, and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and each of their agents and counsel, and any other amounts due to the Trustee or Collateral Agent, as applicable, under Section 7.07.

No provision of this Indenture shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee or Collateral Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, compromise, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee or Collateral Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

Section 6.10 Priorities. Subject to the Collateral Agency and Intercreditor Agreement, if the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article 6, it shall pay out the money or property in the following order:

FIRST: to the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and their agents for amounts due under Section 7.07;

SECOND: to Securityholders for amounts due and unpaid on the Securities for principal and interest ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Securities for principal and interest, respectively; and

THIRD: to the Company as provided in a written direction from the Company.

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

Section 6.11 Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section does

81

not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.07 or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities.

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

(f)The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default, except a Default under Sections 6.01(1) or 6.01(2) (but only if the Trustee is also the Paying Agent), unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a Default or Event of Default is received by a Trust Officer at its office described in Section 11.02 herein from the Company or the Holders of 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities, and such notice references the specific Default or Event of Default, the Securities and this Indenture and states that it is a “Notice of Default”.

(k)The Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any fact or matter unless such fact or matter is actually known to a Trust Officer of the Trustee or unless written notice of such fact or matter is received by the Trustee at the corporate trust office of the Trustee specified in Section 11.02.

Section 7.03 Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity (including in its capacity as the Collateral Agent) may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee or Collateral Agent. Any Paying Agent, Registrar, co-registrar or co-paying agent may do the same with like rights. 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 (if this Indenture has been qualified under the TIA) or resign. The Trustee is also subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11 hereof.

Section 7.04 Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee shall not be (A) responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture, the Securities or any other Note Documents, (B) accountable for the Company’s use of its proceeds from the Securities or any money paid to the Company or upon the Company’s direction under any provision of this Indenture,(C) responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee and (D) responsible for any statement or recital in this Indenture or in any document issued in connection with the sale of the Securities or in the Securities other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication.

Section 7.05 Notice of Defaults. If a Default occurs and is continuing of which the Trustee has received written notice, the Trustee shall send to each Securityholder notice of the Default within 90 days after it occurs. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, except in the case of a Default involving the payment of principal of or interest or premium on any Security (including payments pursuant to the mandatory redemption provisions of such Security, if any), the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as the Trustee in good faith determines that withholding the notice is not opposed to the interests of the Securityholders.

Section 7.06 TIA and Listings. As promptly as practicable after each August 15 beginning with August 15, 2022, the Trustee shall mail to each Securityholder a brief report dated as of August 15 that complies with TIA § 313(a) (but if no event described in TIA § 313(a) has occurred within the twelve months preceding the reporting date, no report need be transmitted). During the same time period specified above, the Trustee also shall comply with TIA § 313(b), which section relates to the release or substitution of certain property from the Lien of this

85

Indenture and advances made by the Trustee. The Trustee will also transmit by mail all reports as required by TIA § 313(c).

If this Indenture has been qualified under the TIA, a copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Securityholders shall be filed with the SEC and each stock exchange (if any) on which the Securities are listed in accordance with TIA § 313(d). The Company agrees to notify promptly the Trustee whenever the Securities become listed on any stock exchange and of any delisting thereof.

Section 7.07 Compensation and Indemnity. The Company shall pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this Indenture and the Securities as the Company and the Trustee shall from time to time agree in writing. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Company shall promptly reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses Incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts. The Company shall indemnify the Trustee and its respective officers, directors, employees and agents against any and all loss, liability or expense (including attorneys’ fees) Incurred by any of them in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder. The Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense Incurred by the Trustee through the Trustee’s own wilful misconduct or negligence.

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

The Company’s payment obligations pursuant to this Section shall survive the discharge of this Indenture and the resignation and removal of the Trustee hereunder. When the Trustee Incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 6.01(6) or (7) with respect to the Company, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under the Bankruptcy Law.

The Trustee will comply with the provisions of TIA § 313(b)(2) to the extent applicable.

Section 7.08 Replacement of Trustee. The Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Company. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee in writing with 30 days’ prior written notice and may appoint a successor Trustee. The Company shall remove the Trustee if:

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

(2)the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;

86

(3)a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or

(4)the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

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

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

If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee or the Holders of 10% in principal amount of the Securities may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

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

Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

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

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

87

Section 7.10 Eligibility; Disqualification. There will at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $100.0 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition.

This Indenture will always have a Trustee who satisfies the requirements of TIA § 310(a)(1), (2) and (5). The Trustee is subject to TIA § 310(b).

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

(b)Subject to Sections 8.01(c) and 8.02, the Company at any time may terminate (1) all its obligations under the Securities and this Indenture (“legal defeasance option”) or (2) its obligations under Sections 4.02, 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.14 and 4.15 and the operation of Sections 6.01(5), 6.01(6), 6.01(7), 6.01(8), 6.01(9), 6.01(10), 6.01(11), 6.01(12), and 6.01(13) (but, in the case of Sections 6.01(6) and 6.01(7), with respect only to Significant Subsidiaries and Guarantors) (“covenant defeasance option”). The Company may exercise its legal defeasance option notwithstanding its prior exercise of its covenant defeasance option.

88

If the Company exercises its covenant defeasance option, payment of the Securities may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.01(5), 6.01(6), 6.01(7), 6.01(8), 6.01(9), 6.01(10), 6.01(11), 6.01(12), and 6.01(13) (but, in the case of Sections 6.01(6) and 6.01(7), with respect only to Significant Subsidiaries and Guarantor s).

Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein, and satisfaction of the other covenants or obligations under the other Note Documents (insofar as related to the Securities and this Indenture), and upon request of the Company, the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of those obligations that the Company terminates and the Collateral shall be released as to the Notes Obligations.

(c)Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, the Company’s obligations in Sections 2.03, 2.04, 2.05, 2.06, 2.07, 2.08, 7.07 and 7.08 and in this Article 8 shall survive until the Securities have been paid in full. Thereafter, the Company’s obligations in Sections 7.07, 8.04 and 8.05 shall survive.

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

(1)the Company irrevocably deposits with the Trustee cash in U.S. dollars or U.S. Government Obligations or a combination thereof for the payment of principal of and interest on the Securities to maturity or redemption, as the case may be;

(2)the Company delivers to the Trustee a certificate from a nationally recognized firm of independent accountants expressing their opinion that the payments of principal and interest and premium when due and without reinvestment on the deposited U.S. Government Obligations plus any deposited money without investment will provide cash at such times and in such amounts as will be sufficient to pay principal and interest and premium when due on all the Securities to maturity or redemption, as the case may be;

(3)123 days pass after the deposit is made and during the 123-day period no Default specified in Sections 6.01(6) or (7) with respect to the Company occurs which is continuing at the end of the period;

(4)the deposit does not constitute a default under any other agreement binding on the Company;

89

(5)the Company delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the trust resulting from the deposit does not constitute, or is qualified as, a regulated investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940;

(6)in the case of the legal defeasance option, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that since the Issue Date (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (B) there has been a change in the applicable Federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Securityholders will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such defeasance had not occurred; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Opinion of Counsel required by the immediately preceding sentence with respect to a legal defeasance need not be delivered if all of the Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (x) have become due and payable or (y) will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company;

(7)in the case of the covenant defeasance option, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Securityholders will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such covenant defeasance had not occurred; and

(8)the Company delivers to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to the defeasance and discharge of the Securities as contemplated by this Article 8 have been complied with.

Before or after a deposit, the Company may make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the redemption of Securities at a future date in accordance with Article 3.

Section 8.03 Application of Trust Money. The Trustee shall hold in trust money or U.S. Government Obligations (including proceeds thereof) deposited with it pursuant to this Article 8. It shall apply the deposited money and the money from U.S. Government Obligations through the Paying Agent and in accordance with this Indenture to the payment of principal of and interest on the Securities.

Section 8.04 Repayment to the Company. The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall promptly turn over to the Company upon written request any excess money or securities held by them at any time.

Subject to any applicable abandoned property law, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Company upon request any money held by them for the payment of principal or interest

90

that remains unclaimed for two years, and, thereafter, Securityholders entitled to the money must look to the Company for payment as general creditors.

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

Section 8.06 Reinstatement. If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article 8 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company’s, the REIT’s and each Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture, the Securities and other Note Documents (insofar as related to this Indenture and the Securities) shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article 8 until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article 8; provided, however, that, if the Company has made any payment of interest on or principal of any Securities because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

Article 9

92

Upon the written request of the Company accompanied by a Board Resolution of the Company authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture or any amendment or supplement to any Security Document, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 9.06 hereof, the Trustee shall join with the Company, the REIT and the Guarantor s in the execution of (and (in the case of any Security Document) shall direct the Collateral Agent to execute (and deliver to the Collateral Agent its written consent to the execution by the Collateral Agent of)) such amended or supplemental indenture or such Security Document amendment or supplement authorized or permitted by the terms of this Indenture, unless such amended or supplemented indenture or such Security Document amendment or supplement affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into (or, in the case of any Security Document, so direct and deliver its consent to the Collateral Agent with respect to) such amended or supplemental indenture or such Security Document amendment or supplement.

After an amendment under this Section becomes effective, the Company shall mail to Securityholders a notice briefly describing such amendment. The failure to give such notice to all Securityholders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section.

Section 9.02 With Consent of Holders. The Company, the REIT, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent (in the case of any Security Document), if applicable, may amend this Indenture, the Securities or the other Note Documents with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, the Securities), and any past default or compliance with any provisions of this Indenture, the Securities or the other Note Documents may also be waived with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding. However, without the consent of each Securityholder affected thereby, an amendment or waiver may not:

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

(2)reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest on any Security;

(3)reduce the principal of or extend the Stated Maturity of any Security;

(4)reduce the amount payable upon the redemption of the Securities or change the time at which any Security is required to be redeemed pursuant to Section 4.04 or Section 3.07(c) or may be redeemed as described in Article 3 hereto;

(5)after the obligation of the Company to make an Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer with respect to an Asset Sale has arisen in accordance with Section 4.03, reduce the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer Price or amend or modify in any manner adverse to the rights of the Holders of the Securities the Company’s obligation to pay the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds Offer Price;

(6)make any Security payable in money other than that stated in the Security;

93

(7)impair the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of and interest and relevant or applicable premium, Acceleration Premium or redemption price on such Holder’s Securities on or after the due dates therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Securities;

(8)expressly subordinate the Securities or any Note Guarantee in right of payment or otherwise modify the ranking in right of payment thereof to any other Indebtedness of the Company, the REIT or the Guarantors;

(9)make any change in the provisions of the Collateral Agency and Intercreditor Agreement or this Indenture dealing with the application of proceeds of the Collateral that would adversely affect the Securityholders;

(10)make any change in Section 6.04 or 6.07 or the second sentence of this Section;

(11)make any change in, or release other than in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, any Note Guarantee that would adversely affect the Securityholders; or

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

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. A consent to any amendment or waiver under this Indenture by any Holder of Securities given in connection with a tender of such Holder’s Securities shall not be rendered invalid by such tender.

In addition, any amendment to, or waiver of, the provisions of the Note Documents that has the effect of releasing all or substantially all of the Collateral from the Liens securing the Securities or subordinating Liens securing the Securities (except as permitted by the terms of the Note Documents) will require the consent of the Holders of at least 66-2/3% in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding.

Upon the written request of the Company and the REIT accompanied by a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company and a resolution of the Board of Directors of the REIT authorizing the execution of any supplemental indenture entered into to effect any such amendment, supplement or waiver permitted under the terms of this Section, and upon receipt by the Trustee (and the Collateral Agent to the extent applicable) of the documents described in Section 9.06, the Trustee (and the Collateral Agent to the extent applicable) shall join with the Company and the REIT in the execution of such supplemental indenture or supplement or amendment to the Note Documents. After an amendment under this Section becomes effective, the Company shall send to Securityholders a notice briefly describing such amendment. The failure to

94

give such notice to all Securityholders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section.

Section 9.03 Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. Subject to Section 11.06, every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Securities shall be set forth in a supplemental indenture hereto that complies with the TIA as then in effect.

A consent to any amendment, supplement or waiver under this Indenture or any amendment or supplement to any Note Document by any Holder given in connection with a purchase, tender or exchange of such Holder’s Securities shall not be rendered invalid by such purchase, tender or exchange.

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

The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Securityholders entitled to give their consent or take any other action described above or required or permitted to be taken pursuant to this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Securityholders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent previously given or to take any such action, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 120 days after such record date unless consent from the Holders of the principal amount of Securities required hereunder for such amendment or waiver to be effective also shall have been given and not revoked within such 120-day period. After an amendment or waiver becomes effective, it will bind every Holder, unless it makes a change described in any of clauses (1) through (12) of Section 9.02, in which case, the amendment or waiver will bind only each Holder of a Security who has consented to it and every subsequent Holder of a Security or portion of a Security that evidences the same Indebtedness as the consenting Holder's Security.

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

Section 9.06 Trustee To Sign Amendments. The Trustee shall sign (or, in the case of any Security Document, the Trustee shall direct the Collateral Agent to sign) any amendment,

95

supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment, supplement or waiver does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent as applicable. If an amendment, supplement or waiver adversely affects the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee or Collateral Agent, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, may but need not sign (or, in the case of any Security Document, the Trustee, may, but need not, direct the Collateral Agent to sign) such amendment, supplement or waiver. In signing (or so directing the Collateral Agent to sign) any amendment, supplement or waiver, each of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to receive indemnity satisfactory to it and to receive, and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such amendment, supplement or waiver is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and the other Note Documents.

Section 9.07 Acts of Holders.

(a)Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given, made or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 7.01) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section 9.07.

Without limiting the generality of this Section, unless otherwise provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, (i) a Holder, including a Depository or its nominee that is a Holder of a Global Security, may give, make or take, by an agent or agents duly appointed in writing, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in or pursuant to this Indenture to be given, made or taken by Holders, and a Depository or its nominee that is a Holder of a Global Security may duly appoint in writing as its agent or agents members of, or participants in, such Depository holding interests in such Global Security in the records of such Depository; and (ii) with respect to any Global Security the Depository for which is The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), any consent or other action given, made or taken by an “agent member” of DTC by electronic means in accordance with the Automated Tender Offer Procedures system or other customary procedures of, and pursuant to authorization by, DTC shall be deemed to constitute the “Act” of the Holder of such Global Security, and such Act shall be deemed to have been delivered to the Company and the Trustee upon the delivery by DTC of an “agent’s message” or other notice of such consent or other action having been so given, made or taken in accordance with the customary procedures of DTC.

(b)The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds,

96

certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Where such execution is by a Person acting in a capacity other than such Person's individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of the authority of the Person executing the same. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems sufficient.

(c)The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Register.

Section 9.08 Amendment Affecting Collateral Agent. No amendment or supplement to this Indenture or any Security Document shall adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Collateral Agent without the written consent of the Collateral Agent.

Article 10
Note Guarantees

Section 10.01 Guarantees. Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, jointly and severally, to each Holder, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent and its successors and assigns (a) the full and punctual payment of principal of and interest and premium on the Securities when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, and all other monetary obligations of the Company under this Indenture, the Securities and the other Note Documents and (b) the full and punctual performance within applicable grace periods of all other obligations of the Company under this Indenture, the Securities and the other Note Documents (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Each Guarantor further agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from such Guarantor and that such Guarantor will remain bound under this Article 10 notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Obligation.

Each Guarantor waives presentation to, demand of, payment from and protest to the Company of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. Each Guarantor waives notice of any default under the Securities or the Guaranteed Obligations. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by (1) the failure of any Holder or the Trustee or the Collateral Agent to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Company or any other Person (including any Guarantor) under any of the Note Documents or any other agreement or otherwise; (2) any extension or renewal of any Note Document; (3) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of the Note Documents or any other agreement; (4) the release of any security held by any Holder, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent for the Guaranteed Obligations or any of them; (5) the failure of any Holder, or the Trustee and Collateral Agent to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations; or (6) except, as set forth in Section 10.05, any change in the ownership of such Guarantor.

Each Guarantor further agrees that its Note Guarantee herein constitutes a guarantee of payment, performance and compliance when due (and not a guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder or the Trustee to any security held for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations.

97

Except as expressly set forth in Sections 8.01, 10.02 or 10.05, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor herein shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Indenture, the Securities or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of such Guarantor as a matter of law or equity.

Each Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of or interest and premium on any Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder or the Trustee upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company or otherwise.

In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder or the Trustee has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Company to pay the principal of or interest and premium on any Notes Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, or to perform or comply with any other Notes Obligation, each Guarantor hereby promises to and shall, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Holders, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, an amount equal to the sum of (A) the unpaid amount of such Guaranteed Obligations, (B) accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations (but only to the extent not prohibited by law) and (C) all other monetary Guaranteed Obligations of the Company to the Holders, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent.

Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between it, on the one hand, and the Holders, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent, on the other hand, (i) the maturity of the Guaranteed Obligations hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 for the purposes of such Guarantor’s Note Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby, and (ii) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such Guaranteed Obligations as provided in Article 6, such Guaranteed Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by such Guarantor for the purposes of this Section.

Each Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) Incurred by the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section.

Section 10.02 Limitation on Liability. Any term or provision of this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum aggregate amount of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereunder by any Guarantor shall not exceed the maximum amount that can be hereby guaranteed without rendering this Indenture, as it relates to such Guarantor, voidable under

98

applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

Section 10.03 No Waiver. Neither a failure nor a delay on the part of either the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or the Holders in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Article 10 shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege. The rights, remedies and benefits of the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and the Holders herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits which either may have under this Article 10 at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.

Section 10.04 Note Guarantee Evidenced by Indenture; No Notation of Note Guarantee. The Note Guarantee of any Guarantor shall be evidenced solely by its execution and delivery of this Indenture (or, in the case of any Guarantor that is not party to this Indenture on the Issue Date, a Guaranty Supplemental Indenture thereto) and not by an endorsement on, or attachment to, any Security of any Note Guarantee or notation thereof. To effect any Note Guarantee of any Guarantor not a party to this Indenture on the Issue Date, such future Guarantor shall execute and deliver a Guaranty Supplemental Indenture substantially in the form of Annex A hereto, which Guaranty Supplemental Indenture shall be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by an Officer of such Guarantor.

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

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

Section 10.05 Release of Guarantor. A Guarantor will be automatically and unconditionally released from its obligations under this Article 10 (other than any obligation that may have arisen under Section 10.06):

(1)solely in the case of a Subsidiary Guarantor (and not in the case of the Operating Partnership), in connection with any sale or other disposition of the Capital Stock of such Subsidiary Guarantor or such Subsidiary Guarantor’s direct or indirect parent (including by way of merger or consolidation) other than to the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company, if such transaction at the time of such disposition complies with Section 4.03 hereof and the Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Company as a result of such transaction;

(2)if the Company effects either its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option in accordance with Section 8.01(b) hereof or if it satisfies and discharges this Indenture in accordance with Section 8.01(a) hereof;

(3)any Subsidiary Guarantor becoming an Excluded Non-Guarantor Subsidiary; or

99

(4)upon the merger, amalgamation or consolidation or liquidation of any Subsidiary Guarantor with and into the Company or another Subsidiary Guarantor, in each case in compliance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture or upon the liquidation of such Guarantor following the transfer of all of its assets to the Company or anoth er Subsidiary Guarantor; provided that the Company or Subsidiary Guarantor acquiring any assets of such Subsidiary Guarantor upon such merger, amalgamation or consolidation or liquidation shall comply with Section 4.14 with respect to such assets and such merger, amalgamation or consolidation or liquidation shall comply with Section 5.01.

At the request of the Company, upon delivery by the Company to the Trustee of an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that any of the conditions described in the foregoing clauses (1) — (4) has occurred, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent, as applicable shall execute and deliver such instrument reasonably requested by the Company or such Guarantor evidencing such release.

Section 10.06 Contribution. Each Guarantor agrees that, until the indefeasible payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all applicable obligations under the Securities, the Note Guarantees, this Indenture and the Security Documents, such Guarantor waives any claim, and shall not exercise any right or remedy, direct or indirect, arising by reason of any performance by such guarantor of its Note Guarantee, whether by subrogation or otherwise, against either the Company or any other Guarantor. Each Guarantor agrees that all Indebtedness and other monetary obligations so arising owed to such Guarantor by the Company or any other Guarantor shall be fully subordinated to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the obligations of the Company or such other Guarantor, as applicable, with respect to the Securities, the Note Guarantees, this Indenture and the Security Documents. Subject to the two preceding sentences, each Guarantor that makes a payment under its Note Guarantee shall be entitled upon payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations under this Indenture to a contribution from each other Guarantor in an amount equal to such other Guarantor’s pro rata portion of such payment based on the respective net assets of all the Guarantors at the time of such payment determined in accordance with GAAP.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture to the contrary, so long as the Securities are evidenced by Global Securities, any notice to the Securityholders shall be sufficient if given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures of the Depository within the time prescribed.

Failure to deliver a notice or communication to a Securityholder or any defect in it shall not affect its sufficiency with respect to other Securityholders. If a notice or communication is mailed in the manner provided above, it is duly given, whether or not the addressee receives it.

Any notice or communication to the Company, the REIT or any Guarantor shall be deemed given or made as of the date so delivered if personally delivered or if delivered electronically, in PDF format; when receipt is acknowledged, if telecopied; and seven calendar days after mailing if

sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid (except that a notice of change of address shall not be de e med to have been given until actually received by the addressee). Any notice or communication to the Trustee or Collateral Agent shall only be deemed delivered upon receipt.

If a notice or communication is sent in the manner provided above, it is duly given, whether or not the addressee receives it, except that notices to the Trustee or Collateral Agent shall be effective only upon receipt.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or the Securities, where this Indenture or any Security provides for notice of any event (including any notice of redemption or purchase) to a Securityholder of a Global Security (whether by mail or otherwise), such notice shall be sufficiently given if given to the Depository pursuant to its Applicable Procedures, not later than the latest date (if any), and not earlier than the earliest date (if any), prescribed for the giving of such notice.

Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

Section 11.03 Communication by Holders with Other Holders. Securityholders may communicate pursuant to TIA § 312(b) with other Securityholders with respect to their rights under this Indenture or the Securities.

Section 11.05 Statements Required in Certificate or Opinion.

(4)a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of such individual, such covenant or condition has been complied with.

In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents.

Any certificate or opinion of an officer of any Person may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate or opinion of, or representation by, counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an officer or officers of the Company or any Guarantor stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Company or such Guarantor unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous.

Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument.

Section 11.06 When Securities Disregarded. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or any other Note Document, Section 316(a) of the TIA (including the last sentence thereof) is hereby expressly excluded from this Indenture and the other Note Documents for all purposes. In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Securities have concurred in any direction, waiver, consent or approval or other action of Holders, Securities owned by the Company, the REIT, any Guarantor or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company, the REIT or any Guarantor shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding, except that (i) Securities owned by Specified Holders shall not be so disregarded and (ii) for the purpose of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver, consent approval or other action of Holders, only Securities which the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Securities so owned that have been pledged in good faith shall not be so disregarded if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right to deliver any such direction, waiver, consent, approval or other action of Holders with respect to the Securities and that the pledgee is not the Company, the REIT, any Guarantor or any other Subsidiary of the Company. Also, subject to the foregoing, only Securities outstanding at the time shall be considered in any such determination.

Each Holder, by its acceptance of the Notes (a) agrees that it will be bound by, and will take no actions contrary to, the provisions of the Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement and (b) authorizes and instructs the Collateral Agent on behalf of each Holder to enter into the Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement as [“Priority Lien Representative” (as such term is defined in the Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement)] on behalf of such Holders as [“Priority Lien Secured Parties” (as such term is defined in the Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement)]. In addition, each Holder

113

authorizes and instructs the Collateral Agent to enter into any amendments or joinders to the Junior Lie n Intercreditor Agreement in accordance with its terms with the consent of the parties thereto or otherwise in accordance with its terms, without the consent of any Holder or the Trustee, to add additional Indebtedness as Junior Lien Debt and add other parties (or any authorized agent or trustee therefor) holding such Indebtedness thereto and to establish that the Lien on any Collateral securing such additional Indebtedness shall rank junior to the Liens on such Collateral securing the Secured Obligations and rank equally with the Liens on such Collateral securing the Junior Lien Debt then outstanding to the extent permitted by this Indenture and the Security Documents. The Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel certifying that any such amendment is authorized or permitted under the Note Documents.

Article 13
LIMITED GUARANTEE

Section 13.01 Limited Guarantee Agreement.

(a)The REIT by its execution of this Indenture hereby agrees with each Holder of a Security authenticated and delivered by the Trustee, and with the Trustee on behalf of such Holder as set forth in this Article 13:

(b)The REIT, in accordance with the terms hereof, as primary obligor and not merely as a surety, irrespective of the validity and the legal effects of the Securities, irrespective of restrictions of any kind on the performance by each of (i) the New Bank Claim Borrower, (ii) the Company, (iii) the Operating Partnership and (iv) the Subsidiary Guarantors of their respective obligations under the Securities, and waiving all rights of objection and defense arising from the Securities, but subject to the limitations set forth below, hereby guarantees to the Holders (a) the aggregate principal balance of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, the Securities and (b) all other indebtedness, liabilities, obligations, covenants and duties of the Company owing to the Holders of every kind, nature and description, under or in respect of the Indenture or the Securities or the other Note Documents, for losses solely suffered by reason of fraud or willful misrepresentation by the New Bank Claim Borrower, the Company, the Operating Partnership, the Subsidiary Guarantors and each of their respective affiliates or the REIT (and for no other reason). Any diligence, presentment, demand, protest or notice, whether in relation to the REIT, the Company, or any other person, from a Holder, in respect of any of the REIT’s obligations under the Limited Guarantee is hereby waived.

(c)The obligations of the REIT under this Article 13 constitute unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the REIT and the REIT undertakes that its obligations hereunder will rank equally in right of payment with all other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the REIT.

(d)Subject to the limitations set forth above, the Limited Guarantee is a guarantee of payment and not merely of collection and it shall continue in full force and effect by way of continuing security until all principal, premium and interest (including any additional amounts required to be paid in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Securities) have been paid in full and all other actual or contingent obligations of the Company in relation to the

114

Securities or under the Indenture have been satisfied in full. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any payment received by any Holder is, on the subsequent bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantor s, avoided under any applicable laws, including, among others, laws relating to bankruptcy or insolvency, such payment will not be considered as having discharged or diminished the liability of the REIT and the Limited Guarantee will continue to apply as if such payment had at all times remained owing by the Company.

(e)Until all principal, premium (if any) and interest and all other monies payable by the Company in respect of any Securities shall be paid in full, (i) no right of the REIT, by reason of the performance of any of its obligations under this Article 13, to be indemnified by the Company or to take the benefit of or enforce any security or other guarantee or indemnity against the Company in connection with the Securities shall be exercised or enforced and (ii) the REIT shall not (a) by virtue of this Article 13 or any other reason be subrogated to any rights of any Holder or (b) claim in competition with the Holders against the Company. If the REIT receives any benefit, payment or distribution in relation to such rights it shall hold that benefit, payment or distribution to the extent necessary to enable all amounts which may be or become payable to the Holders by the Company under or in connection with the Securities to be paid in full on behalf and for the benefit of the Holders and shall promptly pay or transfer the same to the Holders as they may direct to the extent such amount shall be due and unpaid by the Company to the Holders.

Section 13.02 Release of Limited Guarantee.

The REIT’s Limited Guarantee shall be released if the Company exercises its legal defeasance option under Section 8.01(b)(1) hereof or its covenant defeasance option under Section 8.01(b)(2) or if the Company’s obligations under the Indenture are discharged pursuant to 8.01(a) hereof. At the written instruction of the Company, the Trustee shall execute and deliver any documents, instructions or instruments evidencing any such release.

Section 13.03 Limitation of Limited Guarantee.

Notwithstanding any provision of the Limited Guarantee, any such guarantee by the REIT is hereby limited to the extent, if any, required so that its obligations under such guarantee shall not be subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law.

Section 13.04 Limited Guarantee Evidenced by Indenture; No Notation of Limited Guarantee. The Limited Guarantee of the REIT shall be evidenced solely by its execution and delivery of this Indenture and not by an endorsement on, or attachment to, any Security of the Limited Guarantee or notation thereof.

The REIT hereby agrees that the Limited Guarantee set forth in Article 13 hereof shall be and remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on any Security a notation of the Limited Guarantee.

115

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

“Global Security” |  | 2.1(b)

2. | The Securities

2.1 | Form and Dating

The Securities shall be issued in the form of one or more global notes (a “Global Security” and are collectively referred to herein as “Global Securities”). The aggregate principal amount of the Global Securities may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee and the Depository or its nominee and on the schedules thereto as hereinafter provided.

The Company shall execute and the Trustee shall, pursuant to an order of the Company signed by two Officers, authenticate and deliver initially one or more Global Securities that (i) shall be registered in the name of the Depository for such Global Security or Global Securities or the nominee of such Depository and (ii) shall be delivered by the Trustee to such Depository or pursuant to such Depository’s instructions or held by the Trustee as Securities Custodian.

Members of, or participants in, the Depository (“Agent Members”) shall have no rights under the Indenture with respect to any Global Security held on their behalf by the Depository or

-1-

APPENDIX

by the Trustee as Securities Custodian or under such Global Security, and the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be entitled to treat the Depository as the absolute owner of such Global Security for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depository or impair, as between the Depository and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices of such Depository governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of a beneficial interest in any Global Security.

Except as provided in Section 2.3 or 2.4, owners of beneficial interests in Global Securities shall not be entitled to receive physical delivery of certificated Securities.

2.2 | Authentication. The Trustee shall authenticate and deliver on the Issue Date, an aggregate principal amount of $455,000,000 of 10% Senior Secured Notes due 2029. Such order shall specify the amount of the Securities to be authenticated and the date on which the original issue of Securities is to be authenticated.

2.3 | Transfer and Exchange.

| (a) | Transfer and Exchange of Definitive Securities. When Definitive Securities are presented to the Registrar with a request:

(A)to register the transfer of such Definitive Securities; or

(B)to exchange such Definitive Securities for an equal principal amount of Definitive Securities of other authorized denominations,

the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested if its reasonable requirements for such transaction are met; provided, however, that the Definitive Securities surrendered for transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or its attorney duly authorized in writing.

| (b) | Restrictions on Transfer of a Definitive Security for a Beneficial Interest in a Global Security. A Definitive Security may not be exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Global Security except upon satisfaction of the requirements set forth below. Upon receipt by the Registrar of a Definitive Security, duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar, together with written instructions directing the Trustee to make, or to direct the Securities Custodian to make, an adjustment on its books and records with respect to such Global Security to reflect an increase in the aggregate principal amount of the Securities represented by the Global Security, such instructions to contain information regarding the Depository account to be credited with such increase, then the Trustee shall cancel such Definitive Security and cause, or direct the Securities Custodian to cause, in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depository and the Securities Custodian, the aggregate principal amount of Securities represented by the Global Security to be

-2-

APPENDIX

|  | increased by the aggregate principal amount of the Definitive Security to be exchanged and shall credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the Global Security equal to the principal amount of the Definitive Security so cancelled. If no Global Securities are then outstanding and the Global Security has not been previously exchanged for certificated Securities pursuant to Section 2.4, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate, upon written order of the Company in the form of an Officer’s Certificate, a new Global Security in the appropriate principal amount.

| (c) | Transfer and Exchange of Global Securities. (i) The transfer and exchange of Global Securities or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the Depository, in accordance with the Indenture (including applicable restrictions on transfer set forth herein, if any) and the procedures of the Depository therefor. A transferor of a beneficial interest in a Global Security shall deliver to the Registrar a written order given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures containing information regarding the participant account of the Depository to be credited with a beneficial interest in such Global Security. The Registrar shall, in accordance with such instructions, instruct the Depository to credit to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the applicable Global Security and to debit the account of the Person making the transfer the beneficial interest in the Global Security being transferred.

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

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

| (d) | Cancellation or Adjustment of Global Security. At such time as all beneficial interests in a Global Security have either been exchanged for Definitive Securities, redeemed, purchased or cancelled, such Global Security shall be returned to the Depository for cancellation or retained and cancelled by the Trustee. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Security is exchanged for Definitive Securities, transferred in exchange for an interest in another Global Security, redeemed, purchased or cancelled, the principal amount of Securities represented by such Global Security shall be reduced and an adjustment shall be made on the books and records of the Trustee (if it is then the

-3-

APPENDIX

|  | Securities Custodian for such Global Security) with respect to such Global Security, by the Trustee or the Securities Custodian, to reflect such reduction, and if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Security, such other Global Security will be increased accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Security by the Trustee or by the Depository at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such increase.

| (e) | Obligations with Respect to Transfers and Exchanges of Securities

| (i) | To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate, Definitive Securities and Global Securities at the Registrar’s request.

| (ii) | No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax, assessments, or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes, assessments or similar governmental charge payable upon exchanges not involving any transfer pursuant to Sections 2.06, 2.07, 2.09, 3.06, 4.03 and 9.05 of the Indenture or pursuant to Section 2.3 or 2.4 of this Appendix).

| (iii) | Prior to the due presentation for registration of transfer of any Security, the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar may deem and treat the person in whose name a Security is registered as the absolute owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security is overdue, and none of the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

| (iv) | All Securities issued upon any transfer or exchange pursuant to the terms of the Indenture shall evidence the same debt and shall be entitled to the same benefits under the Indenture as the Securities surrendered upon such transfer or exchange.

| (f) | No Obligation of the Trustee

| (i) | The Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to any beneficial owner of a Global Security, a member of, or a participant in the Depository or any other Person with respect to the accuracy of the records of the Depository or its nominee or of any participant or member thereof, with respect to any ownership interest in the Securities or with respect to the delivery to any participant, member, beneficial owner or other Person (other than the Depository) of any notice (including any notice of redemption) or the payment of any

-4-

APPENDIX

|  | amount, under or with respect to such Securities. All notices and communications to be given to the Holders and all payments to be made to Holders under the Securities shall be given or made only to or upon the order of the registered Holders (which shall be the Depository or its nominee in the case of a Global Security). The rights of beneficial owners in any Global Security shall be exercised only through the Depository subject to the applicable rules and procedures of the Depository. The Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the Depository with respect to its members, participants and any beneficial owners.

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

2.4 | Definitive Securities. (a) A Global Security deposited with the Depository or with the Trustee as Securities Custodian for the Depository pursuant to Section 2.1 shall be transferred to the beneficial owners thereof in the form of Definitive Securities in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Global Security, in exchange for such Global Security, only if such transfer complies with Section 2.3 hereof and (i) the Depository notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depository for such Global Security and the Depository fails to appoint a successor depository or if at any time such Depository ceases to be a “clearing agency” registered under the Exchange Act, and, in either case, a successor depository is not appointed by the Company within 90 days of such notice, or (ii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (iii) the Company, in its sole discretion, notifies the Trustee in writing that it elects to cause the issuance of certificated Securities under the Indenture.

| (b) | Any Global Security that is transferable to the beneficial owners thereof pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be surrendered by the Depository to the Trustee located at its principal corporate trust office to be so transferred, in whole or from time to time in part, without charge, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, upon such transfer of each portion of such Global Security, an equal aggregate principal amount of Definitive Securities of authorized denominations. Any portion of a Global Security transferred pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be executed, authenticated and delivered only in minimum denominations of $1.00 principal amount and any integral multiple thereof and registered in such names as the Depository shall direct.

-5-

APPENDIX

| (c) | Subject to the provisions of Section 2.4(b) hereof, the registered Holder of a Global Security shall be entitled to grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Agent Members and Persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under the Indenture or the Securities.

| (d) | In the event of the occurrence of any of the events specified in Section 2.4(a)(i), (ii) or (iii) hereof, the Company shall promptly make available to the Trustee a reasonable supply of Definitive Securities in definitive, fully registered form without interest coupons. In the event that such Definitive Securities are not issued, the Company expressly acknowledges, with respect to the right of any Holder to pursue a remedy pursuant to Section 6.06 or Section 6.07 of the Indenture, the right of any beneficial owner of Securities to pursue such remedy with respect to the portion of the Global Security that represents such beneficial owner’s Securities as if such Definitive Securities had been issued.

10% Senior Secured Notes due 2029

1. | Interest

CBL & Associates HoldCo II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (such company, and its successors and assigns under the Indenture hereinafter referred to, being herein called the “Company”) promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Security at the rate per annum shown above. The Company shall pay interest semiannually in arrears on [May 15] and [November 15] of each year, commencing [May 15], 2022. Interest on the Securities shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from [November 1], 2021. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. The Company shall pay interest on overdue principal at the rate borne by this Security, and it will pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the same rate to the extent lawful.

Interest on the Securities will accrue at the annual rate set forth above and will be payable solely in cash. Interest payable at Stated Maturity, upon redemption or repurchase of the Securities shall be payable in cash.

2. | Method of Payment

The Company shall pay interest on the Securities (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered holders of Securities at the close of business on the [May 1] or [November 1] (whether or not a Legal Holiday) next preceding the Interest Payment Date even if Securities are cancelled after the record date and on or before the Interest Payment Date. Holders must surrender Securities to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments. The Company will pay principal, premium and interest in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. If a payment date is a Legal Holiday, payment shall be made on the next succeeding day that is not a Legal Holiday, and no interest shall accrue for the intervening period. Payments in respect of the Securities represented by a Global Security (including principal, premium and interest) will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Depository. The Company will make all payments in respect of a certificated Security (including principal, premium and interest) by mailing a check to the registered address of each Holder thereof; provided, however, that payments on a certificated Security will be made by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the payee with a bank in the United States if such Holder elects payment by wire transfer by giving written notice to the Trustee or the Paying Agent to such effect designating such account no later than 30 days immediately preceding the relevant due date for payment (or such other date as the Trustee may accept in its discretion).

12. | Unclaimed Money

If money for the payment of principal or interest, if any, remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall pay the money back to the Company at its request unless an abandoned property law designates another Person.

13. | Discharge and Defeasance

Subject to certain conditions provided in the Indenture, the Company at any time shall be entitled to terminate some or all of its obligations under the Securities and the Indenture and to the release of liens on the Collateral if the Company deposits with the Trustee cash in U.S. dollars, U.S. Government Obligations or a combination thereof for the payment of principal and interest on the Securities to redemption or maturity, as the case may be.

14. | Amendment; Waiver

The Indenture, the Security Documents or the Securities may be amended or supplemented, and any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture, the Security Documents or the Securities may be waived as provided in the Indenture.

Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent, if applicable, may amend any of the Indenture, the Securities or the other Note Documents without notice to or consent of any Securityholder to, among other things, (a) cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency, (b) to add or release Guarantees with respect to the Securities, including any Note Guarantees, in each case in compliance with the Note Documents, (c) comply with any requirements of the SEC in connection with qualifying the Indenture under the TIA, (d) make, complete or confirm any grant of Collateral permitted or required by any of the Note Documents, and (e) to release or subordinate Liens on Collateral in accordance with the Note Documents.

-6-

principal amount of Securities have concurred in any direction, waiver, consent, approval or other action of Holders, Securities owned by the Company, any Guarantor or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company or any Guarantor shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding, except that Securities owned by Specified Holders (as defined in the Indenture) shall not be so disregarded.

15. | Defaults and Remedies

The Events of Default relating to the Securities are set forth in the Indenture. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities may declare all the Securities to be due and payable immediately. Certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency are Events of Default which will result in the Securities being due and payable immediately upon the occurrence of such Events of Default.

Securityholders may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may refuse to enforce the Indenture or the Securities unless it receives indemnity or security satisfactory to it. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Securityholders notice of any continuing Default (except a Default in payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in the interest of the Holders.

16. | Trustee Dealings with the Company

Subject to certain limitations imposed by the TIA, each of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity (including its capacity as Collateral Agent under the Indenture), may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with and collect obligations owed to it by the Company or its Affiliates and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee or Collateral Agent, as the case may be.

17. | No Recourse Against Others

A director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder, as such, of the Company or any Guarantor shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Securities, the Note Guarantees, the Indenture or any other Note Document or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Security, each Securityholder waives and releases all such claims and liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities.
