as soon as practicable, a registration statement relating to an offer to exchange (such registration statement, the “ Exchange
Offer Registration Statement ,” and such offer, the “ Exchange Offer ”) any and all Registrable Securities
for a like aggregate principal amount of Exchange Notes. The Issuers agree to use their reasonable best efforts to cause the Exchange
Offer Registration Statement to become or be declared effective under the Securities Act as soon as practicable after the Closing Date.
The Exchange Offer will be registered under the Securities Act on the appropriate form and will comply with the Exchange Act. The Issuers
further agree to use their reasonable best efforts to complete the Exchange Offer not later than 450 days following the Closing Date
(or if such 450 th day is not a business day, the next succeeding business day) (the “ Exchange Date ”) and

applicable United States federal and state securities laws to complete the Exchange Offer; provided , however , that in no
event shall such period be less than 20 business days after the date notice of the Exchange Offer is mailed to holders. The Exchange
Offer will be deemed to have been completed only if the Exchange Notes received by holders, other than Restricted Holders, in the Exchange
Offer in exchange for Registrable Securities are, upon receipt, transferable by each such holder without restriction under the Securities
Act and the Exchange Act and without material restrictions under the blue sky or securities laws of a substantial majority of the States

Issuers having exchanged, pursuant to the Exchange Offer, Exchange Notes for all Registrable Securities that have been properly tendered
and not withdrawn before the expiration of the Exchange Offer. The Issuers agree (x) to include in the Exchange Offer Registration
Statement a prospectus for use in any resales by any holder of Exchange Notes that is a broker-dealer and identifies itself as such by

Offer Registration Statement effective for a period (the “ Resale Period ”) beginning when Exchange Notes are first
issued in the Exchange Offer and ending upon the earlier of the expiration of the 180th day after the Exchange Offer has been completed
or such time as such broker-dealers no longer own any Registrable Securities. With respect to such Exchange Offer Registration Statement,
such holders shall have the benefit of the rights of indemnification and contribution set forth in Sections 6(a), (c), (d) and (e) hereof.

(b)              If
(i) on or prior to the time the Exchange Offer is completed existing law or Commission policy or interpretations are changed such
that the Exchange Notes received by holders, other than Restricted Holders, in the Exchange Offer in exchange for Registrable Securities
are not or would not be, upon receipt, transferable by each such holder without restriction under the Securities Act, (ii) the Exchange
Offer has not been completed by the Exchange Date, (iii) any Purchaser so requests with respect to Registrable Securities that are
not eligible to be exchanged for Exchange Notes in the Exchange Offer and that are held by it following the consummation of the Exchange
Offer, or (iv) the Exchange Offer is not available to any holder (other than a Purchaser) which notifies the Issuers in writing,
then, in each case, the Issuers shall, in lieu of (or, in the case of clause (iii) or (iv), in addition to) conducting the Exchange
Offer contemplated by Section 2(a), file a “shelf” registration statement in accordance with the remainder of this Section 2(b) below,
under the Securities Act with respect to the applicable series of Notes that could not be exchanged for any reason set forth in clauses
(i) through (iv) above. The Issuers shall, on or prior to 30 days after the time such obligation to file arises, file a “shelf”
registration statement providing for the registration of, and the sale on a continuous or delayed basis by the holders of, all the Registrable
Securities, pursuant to Rule 415 or any similar rule that may be adopted by the Commission (such filing, the “ Shelf
Registration ” and such registration statement, the “ Shelf Registration Statement ”). The Issuers agree to
use their reasonable best efforts (x) to cause the Shelf Registration Statement to become or be declared effective by the Commission
on or prior to the later of 450 days (or if such 450th day is not a business day, the next succeeding business day) following the Closing
Date and the 90th day (or if such 90th day is not a business day, the next succeeding business day) after the date such filing obligations
arises (the “ Shelf Filing Deadline ”) and to keep such Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective for a period
ending on the earlier of (i) the second anniversary of the Effective Time or (ii) such time as there are no longer any Registrable
Securities outstanding; provided , however , that no holder (other than a Purchaser) shall be entitled to be named as a selling
securityholder in the Shelf Registration Statement or to use the prospectus forming a part thereof for resales of Registrable Securities
unless such holder is an Electing Holder, and (y) after the Effective Time of the Shelf Registration Statement, promptly upon the
request of any holder of Registrable Securities that is not then an Electing Holder, to take any action reasonably necessary to enable
such holder to use the prospectus forming a part thereof for resales of Registrable Securities, including, without limitation, any action
necessary to identify such holder as a selling securityholder in the Shelf Registration Statement; provided , however , that
nothing in this clause (y) shall relieve any such holder of the obligation to return a completed and signed Notice and Questionnaire
to the Issuers in accordance with Section 3(e)(iii) hereof. The Issuers further agree to supplement or make amendments to the
Shelf Registration Statement, as and when required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used
by the Issuers for such Shelf Registration Statement or by the Securities Act for shelf registration, and the Issuers agree to furnish
to each Electing Holder copies of any such supplement or amendment prior to its being used or promptly following its filing with the
Commission.

the event that (i) the Shelf Registration Statement has not become effective or been declared effective by the Commission on or
prior to the Shelf Filing Deadline, (ii) the Exchange Offer has not been completed on or prior to the Exchange Date, (iii) the
Exchange Offer Registration Statement required by Section 2(a) hereof is filed and becomes or is declared effective but thereafter
shall either be withdrawn by the Issuers or shall become subject to an effective stop order issued pursuant to Section 8(d) of
the Securities Act suspending the effectiveness of such registration statement (except as specifically permitted herein) without being
succeeded immediately by an additional registration statement filed and declared effective, in each case prior to the completion of the
Exchange Offer or (iv) the Shelf Registration Statement required by Section 2(b) hereof is filed and becomes or is declared
effective but shall thereafter either be withdrawn by the Issuers or shall become subject to an effective stop order issued pursuant
to Section 8(d) of the Securities Act suspending the effectiveness of such registration statement (except as specifically permitted
herein) without being succeeded immediately by an additional registration statement filed and declared effective (each such event referred
to in clauses (i) through (iv), a “ Registration Default ” and each period during which a Registration Default
has occurred and is continuing, a “ Registration Default Period ”), then, as liquidated damages for such Registration
Default, subject to the provisions of Section 9(b), special interest (“ Special Interest ”), in addition to the
Base Interest, shall accrue on the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Transfer Restricted Notes (as defined below) affected
by such Registration Default at a per annum rate of 0.25% for the first 90 days of the Registration Default Period and at a per annum
rate of 0.50% thereafter for the remaining portion of the Registration Default Period, commencing on (A) the 90th day after the
filing of such Shelf Registration Statement was required, in the case of clause (i) above (but in no event prior to the 450 th
day after the Closing Date), (B) the 450 th day after the Closing Date, in the case of clause (ii) above, (C) the
day such Exchange Offer Registration Statement ceases to be effective, in the case of clause (iii) above and (D) the day such
Shelf Registration Statement ceases to be effective, in the case of clause (iv) above. Following the cure of all Registration Defaults
relating to particular Transfer Restricted Notes (which shall be the Effective Time of the Shelf Registration Statement in the case of
clause (i) above, the date of the completion of the Exchange Offer, in the case of clause (ii) above, the date that the Exchange
Offer Registration Statement again becomes effective, in the case of clause (iii) above, and the date that the Shelf Registration
Statement again becomes effective, in the case of clause (iv) above), the interest rate borne by the relevant Transfer Restricted
Notes will be reduced to the original interest rate borne by such Transfer Restricted Notes; provided , however , that, if
after any such reduction in interest rate, a different Registration Default occurs, the interest rate borne by the relevant Transfer
Restricted Notes shall again be increased pursuant to the foregoing provisions. All accrued Special Interest shall be paid in cash by
the Issuers on each Interest Payment Date (as defined in the Indenture). For purposes of this Agreement, “ Transfer Restricted
Notes ” shall mean, with respect to any Registration Default, any Notes or Exchange Notes of the applicable series which have
not ceased being Registrable Securities pursuant to the definition thereof in Section 1 of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything
contained herein, Special Interest shall be the sole and exclusive remedy with respect to a Registration Default.

imposed by any applicable law or regulations, the Issuers shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to issue and deliver to such
Purchaser, in exchange for such Registrable Securities, a like principal amount of Exchange Notes. Such issuance shall not be deemed
to be part of the Exchange Offer. The Issuers shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the CUSIP Service Bureau to issue

Offer. Any such Exchange Notes shall, at the time of issuance, and subject to the limitations set forth in Section 1 hereof, constitute
Registrable Securities for purposes of this Agreement (other than Section 2(a) hereof).

 

(e)              The

(including each Purchaser and, with respect to any prospectus delivery as contemplated in Section 3(c)(ii) or Section 3(f)(iv) hereof,
each Exchanging Dealer) severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Issuers, and each of their affiliates, directors, employees,
members, managers and agents and each Person who controls the Issuers within the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange
Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Issuers to each such holder, but only with reference to written information
relating to such holder furnished to the Issuers by or on behalf of such holder specifically for inclusion in the documents referred
to in the foregoing indemnity. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which any such holder may otherwise have.

 

(c)              Promptly
after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 6 or notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will,
if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 6, notify the indemnifying party in
writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from liability
under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying
party of substantial rights and defenses; and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to
any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above. The indemnifying party
shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified,
to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified
party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and, except as provided in the next sentence, after notice from the indemnifying party
to such indemnified party of its election to so assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified
party for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such indemnified party, in
connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s rights
in the prior sentence, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ its own counsel (and one local counsel), and the indemnifying
party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying
party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest; (ii) the actual or potential defendants
in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have
reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional
to those available to the indemnifying party; (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified
party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action; or (iv) the indemnifying
party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. No indemnifying party
shall, in connection with any one action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out
of the same general circumstances or allegations, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in
addition to any local counsel) for all indemnified parties. An indemnifying party shall not be liable under this Section 6 to any
indemnified party regarding any settlement or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened
claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified
parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent is consented to by such
indemnifying party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. No indemnifying party shall, without the written consent of the
indemnified party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in
respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified
party, unless such settlement (x) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party, in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to such indemnified party, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (y) does
not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of such indemnified party.

 

- 22 -

 

 

(d)              In
the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 6 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold
harmless an indemnified party for any reason, then each applicable indemnifying party agrees to contribute to the aggregate losses, claims,
damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating
or defending same) (collectively “ Losses ”) to which such indemnifying party may be subject in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party on the one hand and by the indemnified party on the other
from the offering of the Notes. If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable
law or if the indemnified party failed to give the notice required under subsection (c) above, then each indemnifying party shall
contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative
benefits but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other in connection with
the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as
any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by the Issuers shall be deemed to be equal to the sum of (x) the
total net proceeds from the initial placement of the Notes (before deducting expenses) reflected in the Purchase Agreement and (y) the
total amount of Special Interest which the Issuers were not required to pay as a result of registering the securities covered by the
Exchange Offer Registration Statement or Shelf Registration Statement which resulted in such Losses. Benefits received by the Purchasers
shall be deemed to be equal to the total purchase discounts and commissions as reflected in the Purchase Agreement, and benefits received
by any other holders shall be deemed to be equal to the proceeds received from the sale of the Registrable Securities or Exchange Notes,
as applicable. Benefits received by any underwriter shall be deemed to be equal to the total underwriting discounts and commissions,
as set forth in the prospectus forming a part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or Shelf Registration Statement which resulted
in such Losses. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement
of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party
on the one hand or the indemnified party on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity
to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant
to this subsection (d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the holders or any agents or underwriters or all of them
were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations
referred to above in this subsection (d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages
or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or
other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), no holder shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by
which the dollar amount of the proceeds received by such holder from the sale of Registrable Securities (after deducting any fees, discounts
and commissions applicable thereto) exceeds the amount of any damages which such holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason
of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission, and no underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount
in excess of the amount by which the total price of the Registrable Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public exceeds
the amount of any damages which such underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement
or omission or alleged omission. The holders’ and any underwriters’ obligations in this subsection (d) to contribute
are several in proportion to the principal amount of Registrable Securities registered or underwritten, as the case may be, by them,
and not joint. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning
of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 6, each person who controls any holder, agent or underwriter within the meaning
of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee and agent of a holder, agent or underwriter shall
have the same rights to contribution as such holder, agent or underwriter, and each person who controls the Issuers within the meaning
of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act and each officer and director of the Issuers shall have the same rights to contribution
as the Issuers, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this paragraph (d).

 

- 23 -

 

 

(e)              The
provisions of this Section will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any holder
or the Issuers or any of the officers, directors or controlling persons referred to in this Section hereof, and will survive the
sale by a holder of securities covered by an Exchange Offer Registration Statement or Shelf Registration Statement.

 

SECTION 7.             Underwritten
Offerings .

 

(a)              Selection
of Underwriters . If any of the Registrable Securities covered by the Shelf Registration are to be sold pursuant to an underwritten
offering, the managing underwriter or underwriters thereof shall be designated by Electing Holders holding at least a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Registrable Securities to be included in such offering, provided that such designated managing underwriter
or underwriters is or are reasonably acceptable to the Issuers.

 

(b)              Participation
by Holders . Each holder of Registrable Securities hereby agrees with each other such holder that no such holder may participate in
any underwritten offering hereunder unless such holder (i) agrees to sell such holder’s Registrable Securities on the basis
provided in any underwriting arrangements with respect to such Registrable Securities approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve
such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and
other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

 

- 24 -

 

 

(c)              Minimum
Requirements . With respect to each series of Notes, the Issuers shall not have any obligations with respect to any underwriters or
underwritten offering except a single underwritten offering of $270 million or more of Registrable Securities.

 

SECTION 8.             Rule 144 .

 

(a)              Each
of the Issuers covenants to the holders of Registrable Securities that to the extent it shall be required to do so under the Exchange
Act, it shall timely file the reports required to be filed by it under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act (including, without limitation,
the reports under Section 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act referred to in subparagraph (c)(1) of Rule 144), and shall
take such further action as any holder of Registrable Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time
to enable such holder to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitations of the exemption
provided by Rule 144, or any similar or successor rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the Commission. Upon the request
of any holder of Registrable Securities in connection with that holder’s sale pursuant to Rule 144, the Issuers shall deliver
to such holder a written statement as to whether they have complied with such requirements.

 

(b)              At
any time while any of the Notes are “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144, if the Company is no longer
subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (as opposed to just having the obligations
suspended), the Company or a Parent (as defined in the Indenture) shall prepare and furnish to any Holder, any beneficial owner of the
Notes and any prospective purchaser of Notes designated by a Holder or a beneficial owner of the Notes, promptly upon request, the information
required pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) (or any successor thereto) under the Securities Act in connection with the offer, sale
or transfer of Notes. Such information may be provided by a Parent in filings with the Commission which filing shall satisfy the obligations
set forth in this clause (b). The requirements set forth in this clause (b) will not be applicable after the one year anniversary
of the issuance of any Notes.

 

SECTION 9.             Miscellaneous .

 

(a)              No
Inconsistent Agreements . The Issuers represent, warrant, covenant and agree that they have not granted, and shall not grant, registration
rights with respect to Registrable Securities or any other Notes which would be inconsistent with the terms contained in this Agreement.

 

(b)              Specific
Performance . Except with respect to a Registration Default, the parties hereto acknowledge that there would be no adequate remedy
at law if the Issuers fail to perform any of their obligations hereunder and that the Purchasers and the holders from time to time of
the Registrable Securities may be irreparably harmed by any such failure, and accordingly agree that the Purchasers and such holders,
in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled at law or in equity, shall be entitled to compel specific performance of
the obligations of the Issuers under this Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, in any court of the
United States or any State thereof having jurisdiction.
