(3) any “person” (as the term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) becomes the Beneficial Owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the voting power of the Voting Stock of the Company.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) a transaction will not be deemed to involve a Change of Control solely as a result of the Company becoming a direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of a holding company if (A) the direct or indirect holders of the Voting Stock of such holding company immediately following that transaction are substantially the same as the holders of the Company’s Voting Stock immediately prior to that transaction or (B) immediately following that transaction no Person (other than a holding company satisfying the requirements of this sentence) is the Beneficial Owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of such holding company and (b) the right to acquire Voting Stock (so long as such Person does not have the right to direct the voting of the Voting Stock subject to such right) or any veto power in connection with the acquisition or disposition of Voting Stock will not cause a party to be a beneficial owner.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a downgrade will not be deemed to have occurred in respect of a particular Change of Control (and thus will not be deemed a downgrade for purposes of the definition of Change of Control Triggering Event) if the rating agencies making the reduction in rating do not announce or publicly confirm or inform the Trustee in writing at the Company’s request that the reduction was the result, in whole or in part, of any event or circumstance comprised of or arising as a result of, or in respect of, the applicable Change of Control (whether or not the applicable Change of Control has occurred at the time of the reduction in rating).

With respect to the Notes only, Article II of the Base Indenture is hereby replaced with the following:

Section 2.01 Form and Dating. a) General. The Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage or this Supplemental Indenture. Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. The Notes shall be in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

The terms and provisions contained in the Notes shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Supplemental Indenture and the Company and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Supplemental Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision of any Note conflicts with the express provisions of this Supplemental Indenture, the provisions of this Supplemental Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

b) Global Notes. Notes issued in global form shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A (including the Global Note Legend thereon and the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Notes issued in definitive form shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A (without the Global Note Legend thereon and without the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Each Global Note shall represent such outstanding Notes as shall be specified therein and each shall provide that it shall represent the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee or the custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.06.

c) Form of Initial Notes, Etc. All Initial Notes issued on the Issue Date are to be initially represented by one or more Restricted Global Notes.

d) Euroclear and Clearstream Procedures Applicable. The provisions of the “Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System” and “Terms and Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear” and the “General Terms and Conditions of Clearstream” and “Customer Handbook” of Clearstream (or, in each case, equivalent documents setting forth the procedures of Euroclear and Clearstream) shall be applicable to transfers of beneficial interests in Regulation S Global Notes that are held by Participants through Euroclear or Clearstream.

Section 2.02 Execution and Authentication. One Officer shall sign the Notes for the Company by manual, facsimile or pdf signature.

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

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

At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Supplemental Indenture, the Company may deliver Notes executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication; and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver (i) Initial Notes for original issue in the aggregate principal amount of $500,000,000 and (ii) Additional Notes from time to time for original issue in aggregate principal amount specified by the Company, in each case specified above, upon a written order of the Company signed by an Officer of the Company (an “Authentication Order”). Such Authentication Order shall specify the amount of Notes to be authenticated and the date on which the Notes are to be authenticated, whether such Notes are to be Initial Notes or Additional Notes and whether the Notes are to be issued as one or more Global Notes and such other information as the Company may include or the Trustee may reasonably request. The aggregate principal amount of Notes which may be authenticated and delivered under this Supplemental Indenture is unlimited. Any Additional Notes issued hereunder shall constitute the same series as the then-existing Notes; provided that the terms of any such Additional Notes shall be substantially identical to the terms of the applicable Initial Notes.

On the Issue Date, the Company will issue Initial Notes in $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount in the form of one or more Restricted Global Notes. Any Additional Notes offered and sold in reliance on the exemption from registration under the Securities Act provided by Section 4(2) thereunder or Rule 144A shall be issued as one or more Rule 144A Global Notes. Any Additional Notes offered and sold in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S shall be issued as one or more Regulation S Global Notes.

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

Section 2.03 Registrar and Paying Agent. The Company shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”) and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”). The Registrar shall keep the Register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Company may appoint 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 may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Registrar or Paying Agent may resign at any time upon not less than 10 Business Days’ prior written notice to the Company. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Supplemental Indenture. The Parent Guarantor, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

The parties to this Supplemental Indenture intend that this Section 2.03 shall be construed so that the Notes are at all times maintained and treated as being in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code.

The Company initially appoints The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) to act as Depositary with respect to the Global Notes.

The Company initially appoints the Trustee to act as the Registrar and Paying Agent and to act as custodian with respect to the Global Notes.

Section 2.04 Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. Principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes will be payable at the office of the Paying Agent or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to Holders at their respective addresses set forth in the Register; provided, all payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to the Notes represented by one or more Global Notes registered in the name or held by the Depositary shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Paying Agent prior to 10:00 a.m., New York time, on each due date of the principal and interest on any Note. 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 Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company or a Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for the money. If the Company or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Company, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes.

Section 2.05 Holder 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 all Holders. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee at least seven Business Days before each interest payment date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of Holders.

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

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

(xi) Neither the Trustee nor any Agent shall have any responsibility for any actions taken or not taken by the Depositary.

(xii) Notwithstanding anything contained herein, any transfers, replacements or exchanges of Notes, including as contemplated in this Article 2, shall not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness.

Section 2.07 Replacement Notes.

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

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

Section 2.08 Outstanding Notes.

The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of this Supplemental Indenture, and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.09, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Note.

If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a bona fide purchaser.

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

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

Section 2.09 Treasury Notes.

In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Company shall be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so disregarded.

Section 2.10 Temporary Notes.

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

Holders of temporary Notes shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Supplemental Indenture.

Section 2.11 Cancellation.

The Company at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall dispose of such canceled Notes in its customary manner. The Company may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that they have paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

Section 2.12 Defaulted Interest.

If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it shall pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, which interest on defaulted interest shall accrue until the defaulted interest is deemed paid hereunder, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment. The Company shall fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date; provided that no such special record date shall be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest. At least 15 days before the special record date,

the Company (or, upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company) shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Holders a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid.

Section 2.13 CUSIP Numbers.

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

ARTICLE 3
REDEMPTION AND PREPAYMENT

With respect to the Notes only, Article III of the Base Indenture is hereby replaced with the following:

Section 3.01 Notices to Trustee.

If the Company elects to redeem Notes pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of Section 3.07, they shall furnish to the Trustee, at least 15 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, an Officer’s Certificate setting forth (i) the clause of this Supplemental Indenture pursuant to which the redemption shall occur, (ii) the redemption date, (iii) the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and (iv) the redemption price.

Section 3.02 Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed. If the Company elects to redeem fewer than all of the Notes, and the Notes are at the time represented by a Global Note, then the Depositary will select the particular Notes to be redeemed by lot or otherwise in accordance with the procedures thereof. If the Company elects to redeem less than all of the Notes, and any of the Notes are not represented by a Global Note, then the Trustee will select the particular Notes to be redeemed pro rata, by lot or in a manner it deems appropriate and fair.

In the event of partial redemption, the particular Notes to be redeemed shall be selected, unless otherwise provided herein, not less than 15 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date by the Trustee from the outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption.

The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Notes and portions of Notes selected shall be in amounts of $2,000 or whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof; except that if all of a Holder’s Notes are to be redeemed, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder, even if not a multiple of $1,000, shall be redeemed. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Supplemental Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption.

Section 3.03 Notice of Redemption.

At least 15 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered, by first class mail or electronically in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary, a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address.

The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed and shall state:

a) the redemption date;

b) the redemption price;

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

d) the name and address of the Paying Agent;

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

f) that, unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment, interest on Notes called for redemption and redeemed shall cease to accrue on and after the redemption date;

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

h) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes; and

i) any conditions to the Company’s obligations to redeem the Notes as contemplated by Section 3.04 and Section 3.07(d).

At the Company’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at its expense; provided, however, that the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least 20 days prior to the redemption date (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Trustee), an Officer’s Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the preceding paragraph.

Section 3.04 Effect of Notice of Redemption.

Once notice of redemption is delivered in accordance with Section 3.03, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the redemption date at the redemption price; provided that any redemption or notice of any redemption may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent as contemplated by Section 3.07(d).

Section 3.05 Deposit of Redemption Price.

At or prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the redemption date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on all Notes to be redeemed on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Company any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Company in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption price of, and accrued interest on, all Notes to be redeemed.

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

Section 3.06 Notes Redeemed in Part.

No Notes of $2,000 principal amount or less shall be redeemed in part. Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed in part, the Company shall issue and, upon the Company’s written request, the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder at the expense of the Company a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Note surrendered.

Section 3.07 Optional Redemption.

a) At any time prior to April 15, 2021, the Company may, at its option, redeem all or any portion of the Notes on not less than 15 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice mailed (or, in the case of Global Notes, delivered electronically in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary) to Holders of the Notes to be redeemed at a redemption price equal to the greater of:

(i) 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date; and

(ii) the sum, as determined by an Independent Investment Banker, of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest (exclusive of interest accrued to the date of redemption) discounted to the redemption date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 50 basis points, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date of redemption.

b) At any time and from time to time on or after April 15, 2021, the Company may redeem the Notes in whole or in part, at the Company’s option, upon not less than 15 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice mailed (or, in the case of global notes, delivered electronically in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary) to Holders of the Notes to be redeemed at a redemption price equal the percentage of principal amount set forth below plus accrued and

unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes redeemed, to, but excluding, the applicable date of redemption, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on April 15 of the year indicated below:

Year	Price
2021	102.688	%
2022	101.344	%
2023 and thereafter	100.000	%

c) At any time and from time to time prior to April 15, 2021, the Company may redeem Notes with the Net Cash Proceeds received by the Company from any Equity Offering at a redemption price equal to 105.375% plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date, in an aggregate principal amount for all such redemptions not to exceed 40% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Notes (including Additional Notes); provided that

(i) in each case the redemption takes place not later than 180 days after the closing of the related Equity Offering, and

(ii) not less than 60% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Notes remain outstanding immediately thereafter (including Notes that are being called for redemption but excluding Notes held by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries).

d) Any redemption and notice of redemption may, at the Company’s option, be subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent (including, in the case of a redemption related to an equity offering, the consummation of such equity offering). Such notice shall state that, at the Company’s option, the redemption date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Company in its sole discretion), or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied (or waived by the Company in its sole discretion) by the redemption date, or by the redemption date so delayed.

e) If the optional redemption date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related interest payment date, the accrued and unpaid interest will be paid to the Person in whose name the Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders whose Notes will be subject to redemption by the Company.

f) Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable redemption date.

g) Any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.01 through 3.06.

Section 3.08 Mandatory Redemption.

Except as otherwise provided in Section 3.09 below, the Company shall not be required to make mandatory redemption payments with respect to the Notes.

Section 3.09 Special Mandatory Redemption.

a) If (i) the La Quinta Acquisition is not consummated on or prior to July 17, 2018 (as such date may be extended under the terms of the La Quinta Acquisition Agreement, but in no event longer than 90 days after July 17, 2018, the “Outside Date”) or (ii) if an Acquisition Termination Event (as defined below) occurs at any time prior thereto (the events in clauses (i) and (ii), each a “Mandatory Redemption Event”), the Company will redeem all the Notes on the Special Mandatory Redemption Date at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the Special Mandatory Redemption Date (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date prior to said redemption to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date). In the event of the occurrence of a Mandatory Redemption Event, the Company will deliver a notice of special mandatory redemption (a “Special Mandatory Redemption Notice”), or cause a Special Mandatory Redemption Notice to be provided to the Trustee for delivery, to the Holders of the Notes (with a copy to the Trustee if delivered by the Company), no later than five Business Days after the earlier to occur of (i) the Outside Date (if the La Quinta Acquisition has not closed by such date) or (ii) the occurrence of an Acquisition Termination Event. At the Company’s request, the Trustee shall deliver the Special Mandatory Redemption Notice to Holders in the Company’s name and at its expense; provided that the Company shall have delivered such notice to the Trustee at least 5 days prior to such notice being sent to Holders (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Trustee). The “Special Mandatory Redemption Date” shall be the date specified by the Company in the notice to Holders described above that is between the tenth Business Day and the twentieth Business Day following the earlier to occur of (i) the Outside Date (if the La Quinta Acquisition has not closed by such date) or (ii) the occurrence of an Acquisition Termination Event.

b) If funds sufficient to pay the special mandatory redemption price of the Notes to be redeemed on the Special Mandatory Redemption Date are deposited with the Trustee on or before such Special Mandatory Redemption Date, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the Special Mandatory Redemption Date, then such Notes will cease to bear interest.

c) The provisions relating to special mandatory redemption described in this Section 3.09 may not be waived or modified for the Notes subject to special mandatory redemption without the written consent of Holders of at least 90% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes.

ARTICLE 4

COVENANTS

With respect to the Notes only, the following Sections 4.03 through 4.10 are hereby added to Article IV of the Base Indenture:

Section 4.03 Reports.

a) Any documents or reports that the Company is required to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act shall be filed by the Company with the Trustee within 15 days after the same are required to be filed with the SEC (after giving effect to any grace period provided by Rule 12b-25 under the Exchange Act).Documents, reports or other information filed by the Company with the SEC via EDGAR shall be deemed to be filed with the Trustee as of the time such documents or reports are filed via EDGAR.

b) Whether or not the Company is subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company shall, within 30 days after each of the respective dates by which the Company would have been required to file annual reports or quarterly reports if the Company were so subject, furnish to the Trustee (i) all financial statements that would be required to be contained in an annual report on Form 10-K, or any successor or comparable form, filed with the SEC, a “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and a report on the annual financial statements by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and (ii) after the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of each fiscal year, all financial statements that would be required to be contained in a quarterly report on Form 10-Q, or any successor or comparable form, filed with the SEC. Substantially concurrently with the furnishing or making such information available to the Trustee pursuant to this Section 4.03(b), the Company shall also post copies of such information required by this Section 4.03(b) on a website (which may be nonpublic and may be maintained by the Company or a third party) to which access will be given to Holders of the Notes. Documents, reports or other information filed or furnished by the Company with the SEC via EDGAR shall be deemed to be filed with the Trustee and shall satisfy the requirement to post copies of such information on a website in the immediately preceding sentence as of the time such documents, reports or other information are filed or furnished via EDGAR.

c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above, if the Company or any parent entity of the Company has furnished to the Holders of the Notes and the Trustee or filed with the SEC the reports described above with respect to the Company or any parent entity of the Company, the Company shall be deemed to be in compliance with the requirements set forth in Sections 4.03(a) and 4.03(b); provided that, if the financial information so furnished relates to any parent entity of the Company, the same is accompanied by consolidating information, that explains in reasonable detail the differences between the information relating to such parent entity, on the one hand, and the information relating to the Company on a standalone basis, on the other hand. For the avoidance of doubt, the consolidating information referred to in the proviso in the preceding sentence need not be audited.

d) In addition, the Company and the Guarantors have agreed that they will make available to the Holders and to prospective investors, upon the request of such Holders, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act so long as the Notes are not freely transferable under the Securities Act. For purposes of Section 4.03, the Company and the Guarantors will be deemed to have furnished the reports to the Trustee and the Holders of Notes as required by this covenant if such reports have been filed with the SEC via the EDGAR filing system or such reports are publicly available.

e) Notwithstanding anything contained herein, if not filed with the SEC but made publicly available to the Trustee and the registered Holders of the Notes in the event that the Company or any parent entity is not subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, (a) such information will not be required to comply with Section 302 or Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or related Items 307 and 308 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC and (b) such information will not be required to contain the separate financial information for Guarantors as contemplated by Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X or Subsidiaries whose securities are pledged to secure the Notes as contemplated by Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X or any financial statements of unconsolidated Subsidiaries or 50% or less owned persons as contemplated by Rule 3-09 of Regulation S-X or any schedules required by Regulation S-X, or in each case any successor provisions.

f) The Trustee will have no responsibility to determine whether the filing of such financial statements pursuant to this Section 4.03 has occurred. Delivery of such reports, information, and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants under the Indenture (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely on Officer’s Certificates).

Section 4.04 Compliance Certificate.

a) The Company shall furnish to the Trustee annually, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, a brief certificate from the principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer, executive vice president, senior vice president, vice president or treasurer as to his or her knowledge of the Company’s compliance with all conditions and covenants under the Indenture (which compliance shall be determined without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided under the Indenture) and, in the event of any Default, specifying each such Default and the nature and status thereof of which such person may have knowledge. Such certificates need not comply with Section 11.05 of the Base Indenture.

b) The Company shall, so long as any of the Notes are outstanding, deliver to the Trustee, as soon as possible and in any event within 30 days after the Company becomes aware of the occurrence of any Event of Default or an event which, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default, an Officer’s Certificate specifying such Default or Event of Default and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

Section 4.05 Additional Amounts.

a) All payments made by the Company, including any successor thereto, on the Notes shall be made without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature (“Taxes”) unless the withholding or deduction of such Taxes is then required by law.

b) If, pursuant to Section 5.01 of the Base Indenture, as a result of or following a merger or consolidation of the Company with, or a sale by the Company of all or substantially all of its assets to, an entity that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside of the United States (a “Change in Domicile”), any deduction or withholding is at any time required for, or on account of, any Taxes imposed or levied by or on behalf of:

(i) any jurisdiction (other than the United States) from or through which the Company makes (or, as a result of the Company’s connection with such jurisdiction, is deemed to make) a payment or delivery on the Notes, or any political subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein having the power to tax; or

(ii) any other jurisdiction (other than the United States) in which the Company is organized or otherwise considered to be a resident or doing business for tax purposes, or any political subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein having the power to tax (each of clauses (i) and (ii), a “Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction”);

in respect of any payment or delivery on the Notes, the Company shall pay (together with such payment or delivery) such additional amounts (the “Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary in order that the net amounts received in respect of such payment or delivery by each beneficial owner of such Notes after such withholding or deduction (including any such deduction or withholding from such Additional Amounts), shall equal the amount that would have been received in respect of such payment or delivery in the absence of such withholding or deduction; provided, however, that Additional Amounts shall be payable only to the extent necessary so that the net amount received by the holder, after taking into account such withholding or deduction, equals the amount that would have been received by the holder in the absence of a Change in Domicile; provided, further, that no such Additional Amounts shall be payable with respect to:

(1) any Taxes that would have been imposed absent a Change in Domicile;

(2) any Taxes that would not have been so imposed but for the existence of any present or former connection between the beneficial owner (or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder of, or possessor of power over the relevant beneficial owner, if the relevant beneficial owner is an estate, nominee, trust or corporation) and the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (including the beneficial owner being a citizen or resident or national of, or carrying on a business or maintaining a permanent establishment in, or being physically present in, the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction) other than by the mere ownership or holding of such Note or enforcement of rights thereunder or the receipt of payments in respect thereof;

(3) any Taxes that would not have been so imposed if the beneficial owner had made a declaration of non-residence or any other claim or filing for exemption to which it is entitled (provided that (x) such declaration of non-residence or other claim or filing for exemption is required by the applicable law of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction as a

precondition to exemption from the requirement to deduct or withhold such Taxes and (y) at least 30 days prior to the first payment date with respect to which such declaration of non-residence or other claim or filing for exemption is required under the applicable law of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, the relevant beneficial owner at that time has been notified in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 11.02 of the Base Indenture by the Company or any other person through whom payment may be made that a declaration of non-residence or other claim or filing for exemption is required to be made);

(4) any Note presented for payment (where presentation is required) more than 30 days after the relevant payment is first made available for payment to the beneficial owner (except to the extent that the beneficial owner would have been entitled to Additional Amounts had the Note been presented during such 30 day period);

(5) any Taxes that are payable otherwise than by withholding from a payment or delivery on the Notes;

(6) any estate, inheritance, gift, sale, transfer, personal property or similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge;

(7) any Taxes that could have been avoided by the presentation (where presentation is required) of the relevant Note to another Paying Agent in a member state of the European Union;

(8) any Taxes imposed under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, as of the date of the indenture (or any amended or successor version that is substantively comparable and not materially more onerous) and any regulations promulgated thereunder or official governmental interpretations thereof (collectively, “FATCA”), to the extent that such Taxes would not have been imposed but for the failure by a Holder of Notes to (i) comply with applicable reporting and other requirements under FATCA and/or (ii) provide, upon reasonable demand by the Paying Agent, and at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, any form, document or certification required under FATCA, which, if provided, would establish that the payments are exempt from withholding under FATCA; or

(9) where, had the beneficial owner of the Note been the holder of the Note, it would not have been entitled to payment of Additional Amounts by reason of any of clauses (1) to (8) inclusive of this Section 4.05(b).

c) The Company shall (i) make any required withholding or deduction and (ii) remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction in accordance with

applicable law. The Company shall use reasonable efforts to obtain certified copies of tax receipts evidencing the payment of any Taxes so deducted or withheld from each Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction imposing such Taxes and to provide such certified copies to Holders. The Company shall attach to each certified copy a certificate stating (x) that the amount of withholding Taxes evidenced by the certified copy was paid in connection with payments in respect of the principal amount of Notes then outstanding and (y) the amount of such withholding Taxes paid per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes. Copies of such documentation shall be available for inspection during ordinary business hours at the office of the Trustee by the Holders of the Notes upon request and shall be made available at the offices of the Paying Agent.

d) At least 30 days prior to each date on which any payment under or with respect to the Notes is due and payable (unless such obligation to pay Additional Amounts arises shortly before or after the 30th day prior to such date, in which case it shall be promptly thereafter), if the Company shall be obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to such payment, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating the fact that such Additional Amounts shall be payable, the amounts so payable and shall set forth such other information necessary to enable the Trustee to pay such Additional Amounts to Holders of such Notes on the payment date. Each such Officer’s Certificate may be relied upon until receipt of a further Officer’s Certificate addressing such matters.

e) References in the Indenture or the Notes to the payment of principal, purchase prices in connection with a purchase of the Notes, interest, or any other amount payable on or with respect to the Notes shall be deemed to include payment of Additional Amounts pursuant to this Section 4.05 to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof.

f) The obligations provided for in this Section 4.05 shall survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of the Indenture and shall apply mutatis mutandis to any jurisdiction in which any successor to the Company is organized or any political subdivision or taxing authority or agency thereof or therein.

Section 4.06 Limitations on Liens.

a) The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, incur, assume or enter into a guarantee (collectively “incur”) of, any Indebtedness secured by a Lien (other than a Permitted Lien) on any of the Company’s or any of the Company’s Restricted Subsidiaries’ Capital Stock or assets, unless the Company secures the Notes equally and ratably with the Indebtedness secured by such Lien (other than a Permitted Lien) for so long (i) as such Indebtedness is so secured (any such Lien created shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of the Lien to which it relates or such Lien constituting a Permitted Lien), or (ii) the Restricted Subsidiary is no longer a Subsidiary of the Company. The restrictions do not apply to Indebtedness that is secured by Permitted Liens.

b) For purposes of the calculation of the Secured Leverage Ratio calculation, the Company may treat any amount of future Indebtedness as outstanding Indebtedness secured by a

Lien and may then later incur a Lien with respect to such amount of Indebtedness without complying with Section 4.06.

Section 4.07 Limitations on Sale and Leaseback Transactions

The Company will not and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to enter into any arrangement with any Person to lease a Principal Property (a “Sale and Leaseback Transaction”) (except for any arrangements that exist on the date the Notes are issued or that exist at the time any Person that owns a Principal Property becomes a Restricted Subsidiary) which has been or is to be sold by the Company or the Restricted Subsidiary to such Person unless:

a) such Sale and Leaseback arrangement involves a lease for a term of not more than three years;

Notwithstanding the limitations described under Sections 4.06 and 4.07, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries are permitted to create or assume Liens to secure Indebtedness or enter into Sale and Leaseback Transactions with respect to Principal Property that would not otherwise be permitted under the limitations described under Sections 4.06 and 4.07, provided that the aggregate amount of all Indebtedness secured by such Liens (excluding Indebtedness and related Liens otherwise permitted as Permitted Liens) and the Attributable Indebtedness with respect to all such Sale and Leaseback Transactions (excluding Attributable Indebtedness with respect to such Sale and Leaseback Transactions entered into in reliance on the exceptions described in Section 4.07) at any time outstanding does not exceed the greater of (i) $440 million and (ii) 10% of Total Assets, measured at the date of incurrence (provided that any fees and expenses (including any premium and defeasance costs) incurred in connection with the replacement, refinancing, restructuring, extension or renewal pursuant to this Section 4.08 of

Section 4.09 Repurchase at the Option of Holders upon a Change of Control Triggering Event.

a) If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem the Notes as described in Section 3.07, Holders of Notes shall have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of their Notes pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”). In the Change of Control Offer, the Company shall offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to, but excluding, the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment”).

b) Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, or, at the Company’s option, prior to the date of consummation of any Change of Control, but after public announcement of the pending Change of Control, the Company will mail (or deliver electronically) a notice to Holders of Notes, with a copy to the Trustee, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control and offering to repurchase the Notes on the date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), pursuant to the procedures required hereunder and described in such notice. The repurchase obligation with respect to any notice mailed or delivered prior to the consummation of the Change of Control shall be conditioned on the Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to the payment date specified in the notice.

c) To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.09, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations hereunder by virtue of such conflicts.

(ii) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and

(iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted.

e) The Paying Agent will promptly deliver to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the purchase price for the Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount

to any unpurchased portion of any Notes surrendered; provided that each new Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

f) The Company will not be required to make an offer to repurchase the Notes upon a Change of Control Triggering Event if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by the Company and such third party purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer.

g) In the event that Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes accept a Change of Control Offer and the Company purchases all of the Notes held by such Holders, the Company will have the right, upon not less than 15 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following the purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer described above, to redeem all of the Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price equal to the Change of Control Payment plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Payment, accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes that remain outstanding, to, but excluding, the redemption 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 redemption date).

Section 4.10 Additional Guarantees

a) If a Domestic Subsidiary enters into a guarantee (such guarantee being referred to as the “Triggering Guarantee”) of Senior Indebtedness of the Company under the Credit Agreement or the Company’s then primary credit facility with lenders, then the Company will, within 10 Business Days, cause such Domestic Subsidiary to execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture pursuant to which such Domestic Subsidiary will guarantee payment of the Notes on the same terms and conditions as the original Guarantees from the initial Guarantors with such limitations as are set forth in the Triggering Guarantee; provided that each of the Company’s Domestic Subsidiaries that guarantees its obligations under the Credit Agreement at the time of execution thereof shall execute and deliver to the Trustee such a supplemental indenture substantially concurrently with the execution of the Credit Agreement.

(iv) with respect to Wyndham Worldwide Corporation only, immediately prior to the Spin-Off.

With respect to the Notes only, Article IX of the Base Indenture is hereby replaced with the following:

Section 9.01 Without Consent of Holders of Notes.

Notwithstanding Section 9.02 of this Supplemental Indenture, the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Supplemental Indenture, the Indenture or the Notes without the consent of any Holders of the Notes for the purpose, among other things, of:

(1) curing ambiguities, omissions, mistakes, defects or inconsistencies;

(2) adding guarantees with respect to the Notes;

(3) securing the Notes;

(4) adding to the covenants of the Company for the benefit of some or all of the Holders or surrendering any right or power conferred upon the Company;

(5) adding additional Events of Default;

(6) making any change that does not adversely affect in any material respect the rights of any Holder under the Indenture;

(7) changing or eliminating any provisions of the Indenture so long as there are no Holders entitled to the benefit of the provisions;

(8) complying with any requirement of the SEC in connection with the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended;

(9) conforming the provisions of the Indenture and the Notes to the “Description of Notes” section in the Offering Memorandum;

(10) supplementing any of the provisions of the Indenture to such extent as shall be necessary to permit or facilitate the defeasance and discharge of the Notes so long as any such action shall not adversely affect the interests of any Holder of the Notes;

(11) permitting the authentication and delivery of Additional Notes;

(12) providing for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes subject to applicable laws;

(13) evidencing the acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee;

(14) complying with obligations under Article V of the Base Indenture;

(15) evidencing the release of any guarantor pursuant to the terms of the Indenture; or

(16) providing for Notes without the Private Placement Legend.

Upon the request of the Company, and upon receipt by the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel pursuant to Section 9.06, the Trustee shall join with the Company in the execution of any amended or supplemental indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of this Supplemental Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into such amended or supplemental indenture that affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Supplemental Indenture or otherwise.

Section 9.02 With Consent of Holders of Notes.

Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, this Supplemental Indenture, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes affected (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or a tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes) and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07, any existing Default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the Notes may be waived, including by way of amendment, with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or a

tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes). Section 2.08 shall determine which Notes are considered to be “outstanding” for purposes of this Section 9.02.

Upon the request of the Company and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders of such Notes as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel pursuant to Section 9.06, the Trustee shall join with the Company in the execution of any amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or supplemental indenture affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental indenture.

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

After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Company shall send to the Holders affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to send such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental indenture or waiver. Subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes may waive compliance in a particular instance by the Company with any provision of the Indenture or such Notes. However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder):

(1) extend the maturity of any payment of principal of or any installment of interest on the Notes;

(2) reduce the principal amount of any Note, or the interest thereon, or any premium payable on any Note upon redemption thereof;

(3) change the Company’s obligation to pay additional amounts;

(4) change any place of payment where, or the currency in which, any Note or any premium or interest is payable;

(5) change the ranking of the Notes;

(6) impair the right to sue for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to any Note; or

(7) reduce the percentage in principal amount of outstanding Notes required to consent to any supplemental indenture, any waiver of compliance with provisions of the Indenture or specific defaults and their consequences provided for in the Indenture, or otherwise modify the sections in the Indenture relating to these consents.

Section 9.03 [Intentionally Omitted]

Section 9.04 Revocation and Effect of Consents.

Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent thereto by a Holder is a continuing consent by the Holder and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the waiver, supplement or amendment becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder.

Section 9.05 Notation on or Exchange of Notes.

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

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

Section 9.06 Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc.

The Trustee shall sign any amended or supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee shall be provided with and (subject to Section 7.01 of the Base Indenture) shall be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 11.04 of the Base Indenture, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, in each case from the Company, stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by the Indenture.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Supplemental Indenture to be duly executed as of the date first written above.

In the Change of Control Offer, the Company shall offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to, but excluding, the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment”).

Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, or, at the Company’s option, prior to the date of consummation of any Change of Control, but after public announcement of the pending Change of Control, the Company will mail (or deliver electronically) a notice to Holders of Notes, with a copy to the Trustee, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control and offering to repurchase the Notes on the date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), pursuant to the procedures required hereunder and described in such notice. The repurchase obligation with respect to any notice delivered prior to the consummation of the Change of Control shall be conditioned on the Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to the payment date specified in the notice.

To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this section, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations hereunder by virtue of such conflicts.

On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company shall, to the extent lawful:

(6) This language should be included only if the Note is an Initial Note.

A-5

a) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

b) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and

c) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted.

The Paying Agent will promptly deliver to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the purchase price for the Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of any Notes surrendered; provided that each new Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

The Company will not be required to make an offer to repurchase the Notes upon a Change of Control Triggering Event if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by the Company and such third party purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer.

In the event that Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes accept a Change of Control Offer and the Company purchases all of the Notes held by such Holders, the Company will have the right, upon not less than 15 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following the purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer described above, to redeem all of the Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price equal to the Change of Control Payment plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Payment, accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes that remain outstanding, to, but excluding, the redemption 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 redemption date).

8. DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Supplemental Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents, and the Company may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Supplemental Indenture. The Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a record date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date.

9. PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes.

10. AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER. Subject to certain exceptions, the Supplemental Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes

A-6

(including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes). Any existing Default or compliance with any provision of the Supplemental Indenture or the Notes (other than any provision relating to the right of any Holder to bring suit for the enforcement of any payment of principal, premium, if any, any interest on the Note, on or after the scheduled due dates expressed herein) may be waived, including by way of amendment, with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes). Without the consent of any Holder of a Note, the Company, the Guarantors (if applicable) and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Supplemental Indenture or the Notes (curing ambiguities, omissions, mistakes, defects or inconsistencies; adding guarantees with respect to the Notes; securing the Notes; adding to the covenants of the Company for the benefit of some or all of the Holders or surrendering any right or power conferred upon the Company; adding additional Events of Default; making any change that does not adversely affect in any material respect the rights of any Holder under the Indenture; changing or eliminating any provisions of the Indenture so long as there are no Holders entitled to the benefit of the provisions; complying with any requirement of the SEC in connection with the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended; conforming the provisions of the Indenture and the Notes to the “Description of Notes” section in the Offering Memorandum; supplementing any of the provisions of the Indenture to such extent as shall be necessary to permit or facilitate the defeasance and discharge of the Notes so long as any such action shall not adversely affect the interests of any Holder of the Notes; permitting the authentication and delivery of Additional Notes; providing for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes subject to applicable laws; evidencing the acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee; complying with Article V of the Indenture; or evidencing the release of any Guarantor pursuant to the terms of the Indenture.

11. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. Each of the following is an Event of Default with respect to the Notes:

a) failure to pay when due interest, including any additional amounts, on the Notes within 30 days of its due date;

b) default in payment of the principal of or premium, if any, on the Notes when due and payable, at maturity, or upon acceleration or redemption;

c) the Company remains in breach of a covenant or warranty in respect of the Indenture or any Note (other than a covenant included in the Indenture solely for the benefit of debt securities of another series of Notes) for 60 days after the Company receives a written notice of default, which notice must be sent by either the Trustee or holders of at least 30% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes;

d) a default resulting in acceleration of Indebtedness of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries other than intercompany Indebtedness of at least $75 million in aggregate principal amount, which acceleration has not been rescinded or annulled after 30 days’ notice thereof;

A-7

e) a final judgment for the payment of $75 million or more (excluding any amounts covered by insurance or indemnities) rendered against the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries (other than any Securitization Entity), as defined in Article 1, Rule 1-02 of Regulation S-X, which judgment is not discharged or stayed within 60 days after (i) the date on which the right to appeal thereof has expired if no such appeal has commenced, or (ii) the date on which all rights to appeal have been extinguished.

f) the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries (other than any Securitization Entity) pursuant to or within the meaning of Bankruptcy Law:

i. commences a voluntary case,

ii. consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case,

iii. consents to the appointment of a custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property, or

iv. makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or

g) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:

i. is for relief against the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries (other than any Securitization Entity) in an involuntary case;

ii. appoints a custodian of the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries (other than any Securitization Entity) or for all or substantially all of the property of the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries (other than any Securitization Entity); or

iii. orders the liquidation of the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries (other than any Securitization Entity);

and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days after (i) the date on which the right to appeal thereof has expired if no such appeal has commenced, or (ii) the date on which all rights to appeal have been extinguished.

In the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company, all outstanding Notes shall become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default with respect to the Notes occurs and is continuing, the Trustee by notice to the Company or the Holders of at least 30% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Company and the Trustee may declare the Notes to be due and payable immediately. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by written notice to the Trustee may on behalf of all of the Holders rescind an acceleration and its consequences with respect to the Notes if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default (except non-payment of principal, interest or premium that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or waived. A court of competent jurisdiction shall have the power

A-8

to stay any cure period under the Indenture in the event of litigation regarding whether a default or event of default has occurred.

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

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

Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences hereunder, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, the Notes (including in connection with an offer to purchase) (provided, however, that the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration). Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of the Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

12. TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH COMPANY. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Company or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee.

13. NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. A director, officer, employee, incorporator, member or stockholder of the Company or the Guarantors, as such, shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes.

14. GOVERNING LAW. THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THIS NOTE AND THE INDENTURE WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS TO THE EXTENT THAT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AND THE HOLDERS AGREE TO SUBMIT TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS NOTE.

A-9

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

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

17. CUSIP NUMBERS. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

The Company will furnish to any Holder upon written request and without charge a copy of the Supplemental Indenture or the Base Indenture, as applicable. Requests may be made to:
