Reference Agreement Security Principles” means the agreed security principles appended to the Reference Credit Agreement, as in effect from time to time and applied mutatis mutandis, excluding any waiver, amendment or other modification after the Issue Date that by its terms affects the rights of the Holders in a manner different and materially adverse relative to the manner such waiver, amendment or other modification affects holders of other First Lien Obligations unless such waiver, amendment or other modification has been approved by Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes then outstanding; provided, however, that if, at any time, the Reference Credit Agreement in effect at such time no longer qualifies as a Qualifying Reference Agreement (which for the avoidance of doubt shall not be the case if a Replacement Reference Credit Agreement is entered into by BP I or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries substantially concurrently with the Reference Credit Agreement then in effect ceasing to qualify as a Qualifying Reference Agreement), the Reference Agreement Security Principles will thereafter mean the agreed security principles appended to such Reference Credit Agreement in the form in which it existed immediately prior to it ceasing to be a Qualifying Reference Agreement, without giving effect to any consents, waivers, amendments or other modifications made in anticipation of such fact.
The Reference Agreement Security Principles shall initially mean the following:
(A)    Considerations
(1)    The security that will be provided in support of the Obligations (as defined in the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement) will be given in accordance with certain security principles (the “Security Principles”) set forth below.
(2)    The Security Principles embody recognition by all parties that there may be certain legal and practical difficulties in obtaining effective security from the Issuers and Senior Secured Note Guarantors. However, it is acknowledged that to the extent the Security Principles conflict with the specific provisions of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture or any Security Document (other than those explicitly qualified by these Security Principles), the provisions of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture or such Security Document will prevail.
(3)    For purposes of the Security Principles, “value” refers to fair market value; provided, however, that if no fair market value is readily ascertainable, value shall refer to book value determined in accordance with GAAP (as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facilities) (consistently applied), as of the date of the most recently ended fiscal quarter for which financial statements are available.
(4)    For purposes of the covenants set forth in this Senior Secured Notes Indenture and Security Documents, the Applicable Representative from time to time shall make all determinations on behalf of the noteholders with respect to these

27





Security Principles and the Senior Secured Notes shall not be entitled to any Collateral not also available on the same priority basis in respect of the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, any other Credit Agreement or other Public Debt.
The Security Principles are as follows:
(a)    general statutory limitations, financial assistance, capital maintenance, corporate benefit, fraudulent preference, “thin capitalisation” rules, retention of title claims, exchange control restrictions and similar principles may limit the ability of Issuers and Senior Secured Note Guarantors to provide a guarantee or security or may require that the guarantee or security be limited by an amount or otherwise; the Issuers and Senior Secured Note Guarantors will use reasonable endeavours to provide the maximum permissible credit support and to assist in demonstrating that adequate corporate benefit accrues to any relevant entity;
(b)    the entities required to provide guarantees and security and the extent of the perfection of such security may be limited where the Applicable Representative reasonably determines in consultation with the Loan Parties (in each case as used in this definition, such term as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facilities) that the cost to the Loan Parties (including for the avoidance of doubt, any material tax costs to the Loan Parties taken as a whole) of providing guarantees and security is excessive in relation to the benefit accruing to the Secured Parties (as defined in the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement);
(c)    any assets subject to third party arrangements which are permitted by this Senior Secured Notes Indenture and which prevent those assets from being subject to a Lien will not be subject to a Lien in any relevant Security Document; provided, however, that reasonable endeavours to obtain consent to such Lien shall be used by the relevant Issuer or Senior Secured Note Guarantor if the relevant asset is material and if seeking such consent will not adversely affect the business of the Issuer or Senior Secured Note Guarantor or their commercial relationships;
(d)    guarantees and security will not be required from companies that are not Wholly Owned Subsidiaries (such term, as used throughout these Security Principles, to exclude directors’ qualifying shares and similar insignificant minority ownership interests). Where security is provided by a wholly owned subsidiary of any Issuer or Senior Secured Note Guarantor (whether direct or indirect) and such subsidiary subsequently ceases to be wholly owned but remains a subsidiary, there shall be no requirement for the release of such guarantee or security;
(e)    RGHL and its Subsidiaries (the “Group”) will not be required to grant Senior Secured Note Guarantees or enter into Security Documents if it would conflict with the fiduciary duties of their directors or contravene any legal prohibition or result in a risk of personal or criminal liability on the part of any officer; provided, however, that the relevant member of the Group shall use reasonable endeavours to overcome any such obstacle; provided further, however, that the above limitation shall be assessed in respect of the obligations of such member of the Group under the Credit Documents (as defined in the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement) generally and not just the Senior Secured Note Guarantee or security being granted by that member of the Group;
(f)    neither RGHL nor any of its Subsidiaries will be required to grant guarantees or enter into Security Documents where there would be a significant tax disadvantage in doing so. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither RGHL nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to give a Senior Secured Note Guarantee or a pledge of its assets if such Person is a US Controlled Foreign Subsidiary, and in no event shall more than 65% of the total outstanding voting Equity Interests of such an entity be required to be pledged;
(g)    perfection of security, when required, and other legal formalities will be completed as soon as practicable and, in any event, within the time periods specified in this Senior Secured Notes Indenture and Security Documents therefor or (if earlier or to the extent no such time periods are specified in this Senior Secured Notes Indenture and Security Documents) within the time periods specified by applicable law in order to ensure due perfection. The perfection of security granted will not be required if it would have a material adverse effect on the ability of the relevant Issuer or Senior Secured Note Guarantor to conduct its operations and business in the ordinary course as otherwise permitted by this Senior Secured Indenture and Security Documents;
(h)    the Collateral Agent (acting in its own right or on behalf of the relevant Secured Parties (in each case used in this definition, as defined in the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement)) shall be able to enforce the security granted by the Security Documents without any restriction from (i) the constitutional documents of any of the Issuers and Senior Secured Note Guarantors, to the extent that such restrictions can be removed under relevant law, (ii) any of the Issuers and Senior Secured Note Guarantors which is or whose assets are the subject of such Security Document (but subject to any inalienable statutory or common law rights which the Issuers and Senior Secured Note Guarantors may have to challenge such enforcement) or (iii) any shareholders of the foregoing not party to the relevant Security Document, to the extent that it is within the power of the Issuers and Senior Secured Note Guarantors to ensure that such restrictions do not apply;
(i)    the maximum secured amount may be limited to minimize stamp duty, notarisation, registration or other applicable fees, taxes and duties;
(j)    where a class of assets to be secured by an Obligor includes material and immaterial assets, the Issuers and the Administrative Agent under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities (or such other Applicable Representative) may agree a threshold in respect of such assets and direct the Collateral Agent to act accordingly;

28





(k)    the only owned real property owned by RGHL and its Subsidiaries required to be pledged on the Issue Date or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, but, in any event, at the same time such pledge is given in respect of the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, will be the real property pledged in respect of the Senior Secured Credit Facilities at such time. After the Issue Date, neither RGHL nor any of its Subsidiaries will be required to pledge any real property owned by RGHL or such Subsidiaries unless the value of such real property exceeds $15.0 million. Neither RGHL nor any of its Subsidiaries will be required to pledge any property in which it has a leasehold interest;
(l)    unless granted under a global Security Document governed by the law of the jurisdiction of the Issuers or a Senior Secured Note Guarantor or New York law, all security (other than share security over subsidiaries of the Issuers or a Senior Secured Note Guarantor) shall be governed by the law of and secure assets located in the jurisdiction of incorporation of that entity; provided, however, that for certain receivables security, such security may be governed by the law of the jurisdiction of incorporation or domicile of the creditor or the law that governs the underlying receivable;
(m)    other than where intellectual property is secured by a floating charge or other similar all-asset security interest, security interests need only be granted for intellectual property with a value greater than €1.0 million. Security interests in intellectual property will be registered solely in the jurisdiction of incorporation of the entity that owns such intellectual property; provided, however, that, with respect to intellectual property that is material to such entity, to the extent the registration of a security interest in or the taking of any other commercially reasonable actions with respect to, such intellectual property in any other jurisdiction is necessary to ensure that the Secured Parties would be able to realize upon the value of the secured intellectual property in the event of enforcement action, such registration or other actions will be taken in such other jurisdiction as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request taking into account the cost to the Loan Parties of such registration in relation to the benefit accruing to the Secured Parties;
(n)    security interests will be taken over only those insurance policies of the Issuers and Senior Secured Note Guarantors that are material to the Group as a whole, as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities (or other Applicable Representative, as applicable);
(o)    other than where equipment is secured by a floating charge or other similar all-asset security interest, security interests need only be granted for manufacturing equipment with a value greater than €250,000;
(p)    security interests will be provided over the equity of any Subsidiary that is not a Loan Party only if (i) it is organized in a jurisdiction where one or more Loan Party is organized, (ii) as of the last day of the fiscal quarter of RGHL most recently ended for which financial statements are available, it had gross assets (excluding intra group items but including investments in Subsidiaries) in excess of 1.0% of Consolidated Total Assets (as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facilities) or (iii) for the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters of RGHL most recently ended for which financial statements are available, it had earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization calculated on the same basis as Consolidated EBITDA in excess of 1.0% of the Consolidated EBITDA (as such terms are defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facilities);
(q)    no security interest will be provided over the equity of any Subsidiary that (1) (a) does not conduct any business operations, (b) has assets with a book value not in excess of $100,000 and (c) does not have any indebtedness outstanding or (2) is an Unrestricted Subsidiary; and
(r)    security interests shall not be required in respect of (i) any bank account that has an average daily balance of less than $500,000 (or its equivalent in other currencies) (and any other bank account as the Administrative Agent under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities may reasonably otherwise agree to exclude) unless such security is constituted automatically under a global Security Document or a floating charge or other similar all-asset security interest (in which case any perfection related obligations (including the delivery of notices or entering into of deposit account control agreements) or reporting requirements shall not apply to such bank account) or (ii) to the extent that the security interest therein is prohibited by the terms of the applicable factoring transaction, any bank account used by any Issuer or Senior Secured Note Guarantor primarily for the receipt of payments in respect of receivables that are subject to a factoring transaction permitted by this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, so long as such bank account is subject to agreed procedures and documentation, in each case acceptable to the Applicable Representative and providing for the prompt transfer by the applicable deposit bank of any funds received therein, other than payments in respect of such receivables, to a bank account subject to a security interest in favor of the Collateral Agents and the Secured Parties (or exempted pursuant to clause (i) above) (and, if requested by any Issuer or Senior Secured Note Guarantor, the Applicable Representative shall cause the release of any bank accounts not required to be pledged under this clause (ii)).
For the avoidance of doubt, in these Security Principles, “cost” includes, but is not limited to, income tax cost, registration taxes payable on the creation or for the continuance of any security, stamp duties, out-of-pocket expenses and other fees and expenses directly incurred by the relevant grantor of security or any of its direct or indirect owners, Subsidiaries or Affiliates.
(B)    Senior Secured Note Guarantors and Security
Each Senior Secured Note Guarantee will be an upstream, cross-stream and downstream guarantee of all the Obligations with respect to the Senior Secured Notes and the Senior Secured Note Guarantees, subject to the requirements of the Security

29





Principles in each relevant jurisdiction. Subject to the Security Principles, the security will secure all of the Obligations with respect to the Senior Secured Notes and the Senior Secured Note Guarantees.
Subject to these Security Principles, the security package shall include stock and other membership interests issued by the Issuers and Senior Secured Note Guarantors and intercompany and trade receivables, bank accounts (and amounts on deposit therein), intellectual property, insurance, real estate, inventory and equipment, in each case owned by an Issuer or Senior Secured Note Guarantor and, in jurisdictions where an “all asset” security interest can be created in a security document, security over all assets shall, subject to this Senior Secured Notes Indenture and Security Documents, be given by the Issuers and Senior Secured Note Guarantors formed in that jurisdiction.
To the extent possible, all security shall be given in favour of the Collateral Agent and not the Holders individually; provided, however, that any accessory security (akzessorische Sicherheit) governed by Swiss and German law shall be given in favour of the Collateral Agent and Secured Parties (as defined in the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement) individually if so required by the Applicable Representative. “Parallel debt” provisions will be used where necessary; such provisions will be contained in the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and not the individual Security Documents unless required under local laws. To the extent possible, the grant of security in the Collateral shall be structured, documented or otherwise implemented in a manner so that there should be no action required to be taken in relation to the security when any noteholder transfers an interest in the Senior Secured Notes to another party. To the extent such action is required, the Applicable Representative shall not require the Collateral Agent to obtain security in such asset giving rise to the requirement for such action upon a transfer of an interest in the Senior Secured Notes to another party.
The Issuers and Senior Secured Note Guarantors will be required to pay the reasonable costs of any re-execution, notarisation, re-registration, amendment or other perfection requirement for any security on any transfer by a Holder to a new Holder on or prior to the date on which the Initial Purchasers notify RGHL that primary distribution of the Senior Secured Notes is complete. Otherwise the cost or fee shall be for the account of the transferee Holder.
(C) Terms of Security Documents
The following principles will be reflected in the terms of any security taken as part of this transaction:
(a)    the security will be first ranking, to the extent possible;
(b)    security will (to the extent possible under local law) not be enforceable unless an Event of Default (as defined in the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement) has occurred and is continuing;
(c)    any representations, warranties or undertakings which are required to be included in any Security Document shall reflect (to the extent to which the subject matter of such representation, warranty and undertaking is the same as the corresponding representation, warranty and undertaking in the Credit Agreement, this Senior Secured Notes Indenture or any Additional Agreement (as defined in the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and to the extent relevant) (collectively, the “Principal Loan Documents”) the commercial deal set out in the Principal Loan Documents (save to the extent that applicable local counsel agree that it is necessary to include any further provisions (or deviate from those contained in the Principal Loan Documents) in order to protect or preserve the security granted thereunder);
(d)    the provisions of each security document will not be unduly burdensome on the relevant Issuer or Senior Secured Note Guarantor granting such security or interfere unreasonably with the operation of its business and will be limited to those required to create effective security and not impose unreasonable commercial obligations;
(e)    information, such as lists of assets, will be provided if and only to the extent (i) required by law to create, enforce, perfect or register the security or (ii) necessary or advisable to enforce the security; provided, however, that such information need not be provided by an Issuer or Senior Secured Note Guarantor pursuant to this subclause (ii) more frequently than annually unless an Event of Default has occurred (or, in the case of third-party trade debtors, unless a Default has occurred which is continuing), and in each case that information can be provided without breaching confidentiality requirements or damaging business relationships;
(f)    the Collateral Agent and Secured Parties shall be able to exercise a power of attorney only following the occurrence of an Event of Default or if the relevant Issuer or Senior Secured Note Guarantor granting such security has failed to comply with a further assurance or perfection obligation within 10 Business Days of being notified of that failure;
(g)    security will, where possible and practical, automatically create security over future assets of the same type as those already secured;
(h)    notification of receivables security to third-party trade debtors shall not be given unless a Default has occurred and is continuing and for intercompany receivables notification may be given at the time such security is granted to the extent required by local law to perfect such security or if a Default has occurred and is continuing;

30





(i)    in respect of the share pledges, until an Event of Default has occurred, the pledgors shall be permitted to retain and to exercise voting rights to any shares pledged by them in a manner which does not adversely affect the validity or enforceability of the security or cause an Event of Default to occur and the subsidiaries of the pledgors should be permitted to pay dividends upstream on pledged shares to the extent permitted under the Principal Loan Documents; and
(j)    in respect of bank accounts (and cash therein), the Collateral Agent agrees with the relevant Issuer or Senior Secured Note Guarantor that the Collateral Agent shall not give any instructions or withhold any withdrawal rights from such Issuer or Senior Secured Note Guarantor, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or, after giving effect to any withdrawal, would occur.

33





however, that the Issuers may elect pursuant to an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee to treat all or any portion of the commitment under any Senior Secured First Lien Indebtedness as being Incurred at such time, in which case any subsequent Incurrence of Senior Secured First Lien Indebtedness under such commitment shall not be deemed, for purposes of this calculation, to be an Incurrence at such subsequent time.
For purposes of making the computation referred to above, Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, amalgamations, consolidations (including the Transactions) and discontinued operations (as determined in accordance with GAAP), in each case with respect to an operating unit of a business, and any operational changes that BP I, BP II or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries has determined to make or have made during the four-quarter reference period or subsequent to such reference period and on or prior to or simultaneously with the Senior Secured First Lien Leverage Calculation Date (each, for purposes of this definition, a “pro forma event”) shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming that all such Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, amalgamations, consolidations (including the Transactions), discontinued operations and other operational changes (and the change of any associated Senior Secured First Lien Indebtedness and the change in EBITDA resulting therefrom) had occurred on the first day of the four-quarter reference period.

When calculating the availability under any basket or ratio under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, in each case in connection with a Limited Condition Acquisition and any related transactions (including any Incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof), the date of determination of such basket or ratio and/or absence of any Default or Event of Default shall, at the option of BP I and BP II, be the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Acquisition are entered into, and such baskets or ratios shall be calculated with such pro forma adjustments as are appropriate and consistent with the pro forma adjustment provisions set forth in the definition of Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio after giving effect to such Limited Condition Acquisition and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any Incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) as if they occurred at the beginning of the applicable period for purposes of determining the ability to consummate any such Limited Condition Acquisition, and, for the avoidance of doubt, (x) if any of such baskets or ratios are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in such basket or ratio (including due to fluctuations in EBITDA of BP I, BP II or the relevant target company) subsequent to such date of determination and at or prior to the consummation of the relevant Limited Condition Acquisition, such baskets or ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations solely for purposes of determining whether the Limited Condition Acquisition is permitted under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture and (y) such baskets or ratios shall not be tested again at the time of consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition or related transactions; provided, however, that if BP I or BP II elects to have such determinations occur at the time of entry into such definitive agreement, any such transactions (including any Incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) shall be deemed to have occurred on the date the definitive agreements are entered and outstanding thereafter for purposes of calculating any baskets or ratios under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture after the date of such agreement and before the consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition unless and until such Limited Condition Acquisition has been abandoned, as determined by BP I or BP II, as applicable, prior to the consummation thereof.

The Senior Secured Notes
SECTION 2.01.
    
Amount of Notes. Two series of Senior Secured Notes are issuable under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture: Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes and Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes, neither of which is exchangeable for the other. The aggregate principal amount of Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes which may be authenticated and delivered under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture on the Issue Date is $1,350,000,000 and the aggregate principal amount of Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes which may be authenticated and delivered under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture on the Issue Date is $750,000,000. All Original Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes shall be substantially identical except as to denomination and all Original Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes shall be substantially identical except as to denomination.
The Issuers may from time to time after the Issue Date issue Additional Senior Secured Notes under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture in an unlimited principal amount, so long as (i) the Incurrence of the Indebtedness represented by such Additional Senior Secured Notes is at such time permitted by Section 4.03 and (ii) such Additional Senior Secured Notes are issued in compliance with Section 4.12 and the other applicable provisions of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture. With respect to any Additional Senior Secured Notes issued after the Issue Date (except for Senior Secured Notes authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Senior Secured Notes pursuant to Section 2.07, 2.08, 2.09, 2.10, 3.08, 4.06(g), 4.08(c) or Appendix A), there shall be (a) established in or pursuant to a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Issuers or BP I and (b) (i) set forth or determined in the manner provided in an Officers’ Certificate or (ii) established in one or more indentures supplemental hereto, prior to the issuance of such Additional Senior Secured Notes:
(1)
    the aggregate principal amount of such Additional Senior Secured Notes which may be authenticated and delivered under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture;
(2)
    the issue price and issuance date of such Additional Senior Secured Notes, including the date from which interest on such Additional Senior Secured Notes shall accrue; and
(3)
    if applicable, that such Additional Senior Secured Notes shall be issuable in whole or in part in the form of one or more Global Senior Secured Securities and, in such case, the respective depositaries for such Global Senior Secured Securities, the form of any legend or legends which shall be borne by such Global Senior Secured Securities in addition to or in lieu of those set forth in Exhibit A hereto and any circumstances in addition to or in lieu of those set forth in Section 2.3 of Appendix A in which any such Global Security may be exchanged in whole or in part for Additional Senior Secured Notes registered, or any transfer of such Global

42





Security in whole or in part may be registered, in the name or names of Persons other than the depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof.
If any of the terms of any Additional Senior Secured Notes are established by action taken pursuant to a resolution of the Board of Directors of any Issuer or BP I, a copy of an appropriate record of such action shall be certified by an Officer or authorized signatory of the applicable Issuer or BP I and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Officers’ Certificate or the indenture supplemental hereto setting forth the terms of the Additional Senior Secured Notes.
Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, including in Section 2.07, Article III and Section 9.02 hereof, or in the applicable form of Senior Secured Note, the Senior Secured Notes, including any Additional Senior Secured Notes, shall be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, including waivers, amendments and offers to purchase. Holders of Additional Senior Secured Notes actually issued will share equally and ratably in the Collateral with the holders of the Original Senior Secured Notes. Unless the context otherwise requires, for all purposes of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, references to the Senior Secured Notes include any Additional Senior Secured Notes actually issued.
SECTION 2.02.
    
Form and Dating. Provisions relating to the Senior Secured Notes are set forth in Appendix A, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture. The (i) Senior Secured Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication and (ii) any Additional Senior Secured Notes (if issued as Senior Secured Notes Transfer Restricted Securities) and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall each be substantially in the form of Exhibits A-1 and A-2 hereto, which are hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture. The Senior Secured Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule, agreements to which any Issuer or any Senior Secured Note Guarantor is subject, if any, or usage (provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Issuers). Each Senior Secured Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. The Senior Secured Notes shall be issuable only in registered form without interest coupons and in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Global Senior Secured Securities shall be in registered form without interest coupons and the Definitive Securities shall be in registered form without interest coupons. Each Global Security shall represent such of the outstanding Senior Secured Notes as shall be specified in the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Security” attached thereto and each shall provide that it shall represent up to the aggregate principal amount of Senior Secured Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Senior Secured Notes represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as applicable, to reflect exchanges and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Security to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Senior Secured Notes represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee or the Registrar, at the direction of the Trustee, in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.03 hereof.
SECTION 2.03.
    
Execution and Authentication. The Trustee shall authenticate and in the case of a Global Security registered in the name of DTC or its nominee, hold such Global Security as custodian for DTC, and in the case of a Global Security registered in the name of a common depositary, deliver to such common depositary upon a written order of the Issuers signed by one Officer or authorized signatory of each Issuer (an “Authentication Order”) (a) Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes for original issue on the date hereof in an aggregate principal amount of $1,350,000,000, (b) Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes for original issue on the date hereof in an aggregate principal amount of $750,000,000 and (c) subject to the terms of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, Additional Senior Secured Notes in an aggregate principal amount to be determined at the time of issuance and specified therein. Such order shall specify the amount of the Senior Secured Notes to be authenticated and the date on which the original issue of Senior Secured Notes is to be authenticated. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Senior Secured Notes Indenture or Appendix A, any issuance of Additional Senior Secured Notes after the Issue Date shall be in a principal amount of at least $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.
One Officer or authorized signatory of each Issuer shall sign the Senior Secured Notes for the Issuers by manual or facsimile signature.
If an Officer or authorized signatory whose signature is on a Senior Secured Note no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Senior Secured Note, the Senior Secured Note shall be valid nevertheless.
Prior to authentication of the Senior Secured Notes, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive the Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel required pursuant to Sections 13.03 and 13.04.
A Senior Secured Note shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on the Senior Secured Note. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Senior Secured Note has been authenticated under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture.
The Trustee may appoint one or more authenticating agents reasonably acceptable to the Issuers to authenticate the Senior Secured Note. Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an instrument signed by a Trust Officer, a copy of which shall be furnished to the Issuers. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate Senior Secured Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Senior Secured Notes Indenture to

43





authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as any Registrar, Paying Agent or agent for service of notices and demands.
SECTION 2.04.
    
Registrar, Transfer Agent, Calculation Agent and Paying Agent. (a) The Issuers shall maintain (i) one or more paying agents (each, a “Paying Agent”) for the Senior Secured Notes in New York, NY, (ii) one or more registrars (each, a “Registrar”), (iii) a calculation agent (the “Calculation Agent”) and (iv) a transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) in New York, NY where the Senior Secured Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange. The Issuers may have one or more additional co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Registrar” includes the Registrar and any additional co-registrars. The term “Paying Agent” includes the Principal Paying Agent and any additional paying agents. The initial Paying Agent shall be The Bank of New York Mellon in New York, NY (the “Principal Paying Agent”). The initial Calculation Agent shall be The Bank of New York Mellon in New York, NY. The initial Registrar shall be The Bank of New York Mellon in New York, NY. The initial Transfer Agent shall be The Bank of New York Mellon, in New York, NY. Each hereby accepts such appointments. The Registrar shall maintain a register reflecting ownership of Senior Secured Notes outstanding from time to time and the Transfer Agent shall facilitate transfers of Definitive Securities on behalf of the Issuers. The Transfer Agent shall perform the functions of a transfer agent.
(b)
    The Issuers may enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Registrar, Calculation Agent or Paying Agent not a party to this Senior Secured Notes Indenture. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture that relate to such Agent. The Issuers shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of any such Agent. If the Issuers fail to maintain a Registrar, Calculation Agent or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 7.07. BP I or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent, Calculation Agent or Registrar.
(c)
    The Issuers may change any Registrar, Paying Agent, Calculation Agent or Transfer Agent upon written notice to such Registrar, Paying Agent, Calculation Agent or Transfer Agent and to the Trustee, without prior notice to Holders;
provided, however, that no such removal shall become effective until acceptance of an appointment by a successor as evidenced by an appropriate agreement entered into by the Issuers and such successor Registrar, Calculation Agent or Paying Agent as the case may be, and delivered to the Trustee. The Registrar, Calculation Agent or Paying Agent may resign at any time upon written notice to the Issuers and the Trustee in accordance with Section 7.08.
(d)
    Upon written request from the Luxembourg Issuer, the Registrar shall provide the Luxembourg Issuer with a copy of the register to enable it to maintain a register of the Senior Secured Notes at its registered office.
SECTION 2.05.
    
Paying Agent to Hold Money. At least one Business Day prior to each due date of the principal of and interest on any Senior Secured Note, the Issuers shall deposit with each Paying Agent (or if the Issuers, BP I or any of its Subsidiaries is acting as Paying Agent, segregate and hold for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto) a sum in immediately available funds sufficient to pay such principal and interest when so becoming due. The Issuers shall require each Paying Agent to agree in writing (and the Initial Paying Agents hereby agree) that a Paying Agent shall hold for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by a Paying Agent for the payment of principal of and interest on the Senior Secured Notes, and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Issuers in making any such payment. If the Issuers, BP I or any of its Subsidiaries acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money held by it as Paying Agent and hold it for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto. The Issuers at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by such Paying Agent. Upon complying with this Section 2.05, a Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the Trustee.
SECTION 2.06.
    
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 Holders. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuers shall furnish, or cause the Registrar to furnish, to the Trustee, in writing at least five Business Days before a payment date on the Senior Secured Notes of each year following the Issue 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.
SECTION 2.07.
    
Transfer and Exchange. The Senior Secured Notes shall be issued in registered form and shall be transferable only upon the surrender of a Senior Secured Note for registration of transfer and in compliance with Appendix A. When a Senior Secured Note is presented to the Registrar with a request to register a transfer, the Registrar shall register the transfer as requested if its requirements therefor are met. To permit registration of transfers and exchanges, the Issuers shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Senior Secured Notes at the Registrar’s request. The Issuers may require payment of a sum sufficient to pay all taxes, assessments or other governmental charges in connection with any transfer or exchange pursuant to this Section 2.07. The Issuers shall not be required to make, and the Registrar need not register, transfers or exchanges of Senior Secured Notes selected for redemption (except, in the case of Senior Secured Notes to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed) or of any Senior Secured Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Senior Secured Notes to be redeemed.

44





Prior to registration of transfer of any Senior Secured Note, the Issuers, the Senior Secured Note Guarantors, the Trustee, the Paying Agents, the Transfer Agent, the Calculation Agent and the Registrar may deem and treat the Person in whose name a Senior Secured Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Senior Secured Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest, if any, on such Senior Secured Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Senior Secured Note is overdue, and none of the Issuers, any Senior Secured Note Guarantor, the Trustee, the Paying Agents, the Transfer Agent, the Calculation Agent or the Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
Any Holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Security shall, by acceptance of such beneficial interest, agree that transfers of beneficial interests in such Global Security may be effected only through a book-entry system maintained by (a) the Holder of such Global Security (or its agent) or (b) any Holder of a beneficial interest in such Global Security, and that ownership of a beneficial interest in such Global Security shall be required to be reflected in a book-entry.
All Senior Secured Notes issued upon any transfer or exchange pursuant to the terms of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture shall evidence the same debt and shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture as the Senior Secured Notes surrendered upon such transfer or exchange.
For the avoidance of doubt, all transfers, exchanges or replacements of Senior Secured Notes pursuant to the terms of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture and Appendix A shall be effected on a series by series basis.
SECTION 2.08.
    
Replacement Senior Secured Notes. If a mutilated Senior Secured Note is surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder of a Senior Secured Note claims that the Senior Secured Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Issuers shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Senior Secured Note if the requirements of Section 8‑405 of the Uniform Commercial Code are met, such that the Holder (a) satisfies the Issuers and the Trustee within a reasonable time after such Holder has notice of such loss, destruction or wrongful taking and the Registrar does not register a transfer prior to receiving such notification, (b) makes such request to the Issuers and the Trustee prior to the Senior Secured Note being acquired by a protected purchaser as defined in Section 8‑303 of the Uniform Commercial Code (a “protected purchaser”) and (c) satisfies any other requirements of the Trustee. If required by the Trustee or the Issuers, such Holder shall provide an indemnity or security sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee or the Issuers to protect the Issuers, the Trustee, the Paying Agents, the Transfer Agent, the Calculation Agent and the Registrar from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Senior Secured Note is replaced and subsequently presented or claimed for payment. The Issuers, the Registrar and the Trustee may charge the Holder for their expenses in replacing a Senior Secured Note (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements in replacing such Senior Secured Note). In the event any such mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Senior Secured Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Issuer in its discretion may pay such Senior Secured Note instead of issuing a new Senior Secured Note in replacement thereof.
Every replacement Senior Secured Note is an additional obligation of the Issuers.
The provisions of this Section 2.08 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Senior Secured Notes.
SECTION 2.09.
    
Outstanding Senior Secured Notes. Senior Secured Notes outstanding at any time are all Senior Secured Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by the Registrar or any Agent in accordance with this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this Section as not outstanding. Subject to Section 13.05, a Senior Secured Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuers or any Affiliate of any Issuer holds the Senior Secured Note.
If a Senior Secured Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.08 (other than a mutilated Senior Secured Note surrendered for replacement), it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee and the Issuers receive proof satisfactory to them that the replaced Senior Secured Note is held by a protected purchaser. A mutilated Senior Secured Note ceases to be outstanding upon surrender of such Senior Secured Note and replacement thereof pursuant to Section 2.08.
If the Trustee or a Paying Agent holds, in accordance with this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, on a redemption date or maturity date money sufficient to pay all principal and interest payable on that date with respect to the Senior Secured Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed or maturing, as the case may be, and the Trustee or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, is not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders on that date pursuant to the terms of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement or the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement (or, if applicable, any Additional Intercreditor Agreement) then on and after that date such Senior Secured Notes (or portions thereof) shall cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue.
SECTION 2.10.
    
Temporary Senior Secured Notes. In the event that Definitive Securities are to be issued under the terms of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, until such Definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the Issuers may prepare and the Trustee or an agent thereof shall authenticate temporary Senior Secured Notes. Temporary Senior Secured Notes shall be substantially in the form of Definitive Securities but may have variations that the Issuers consider appropriate for temporary Senior Secured Notes. Without

45





unreasonable delay, the Issuers shall prepare and the Trustee or an agent thereof shall authenticate Definitive Securities and the Registrar and the Agents shall make them available for delivery in exchange for temporary Senior Secured Notes upon surrender of such temporary Senior Secured Notes at the office or agency of the Issuers, without charge to the Holder. Until such exchange, temporary Senior Secured Notes shall be entitled to the same rights, benefits and privileges as Definitive Securities.
SECTION 2.11.
    
Cancellation. The Issuers at any time may deliver Senior Secured Notes to the Registrar for cancellation. Each Paying Agent shall forward to the Registrar any Senior Secured Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Registrar and no one else shall cancel all Senior Secured Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation and shall dispose of canceled Senior Secured Notes in accordance with its customary procedures upon receipt of written instructions from the Issuers. The Issuers may not issue new Senior Secured Notes to replace Senior Secured Notes it has redeemed, paid or delivered to the Registrar for cancellation. The Trustee shall not authenticate Senior Secured Notes in place of canceled Senior Secured Notes other than pursuant to the terms of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture.
SECTION 2.12.
    
Defaulted Interest. If the Issuers default in a payment of interest on the Senior Secured Notes, the Issuers shall pay the defaulted interest then borne by the Senior Secured Notes (plus interest on such defaulted interest to the extent lawful) in any lawful manner. The Issuers may pay the defaulted interest to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date. The Issuers shall fix or cause to be fixed any such special record date and payment date to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee and shall promptly deliver or cause to be delivered to each affected Holder a notice that states the special record date, the payment date and the amount of defaulted interest to be paid.
SECTION 2.13.
    
CUSIPs, ISINs, etc. The Issuers in issuing the Senior Secured Notes may use CUSIPs and ISINs, as applicable and, if so, the Trustee shall use CUSIPs and ISINs, as applicable in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers, either as printed on the Senior Secured Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption, that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Senior Secured Notes and that any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Issuers shall advise the Trustee and each Agent of any change in the CUSIPs and ISINs.
SECTION 2.14.
    
Calculation of Principal Amount of Senior Secured Notes. The aggregate principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes, at any date of determination, shall be the principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes at such date of determination. With respect to any matter requiring consent, waiver, approval or other action of the Holders of a specified percentage of the principal amount of all the Senior Secured Notes or any series of Senior Secured Notes, such percentage shall be calculated, on the relevant date of determination, by dividing (a) the principal amount, as of such date of determination, of such Senior Secured Notes or series, the Holders of which have so consented, by (b) the aggregate principal amount, as of such date of determination, of such Senior Secured Notes or series then outstanding, in each case, as determined in accordance with the preceding sentence, Section 2.09 and Section 13.05 of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture. Any such calculation made pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall be made by the Issuers and delivered to the Trustee pursuant to an Officers’ Certificate.
SECTION 2.15.
    
Currency. The US Dollar is the sole currency of account and payment for all sums payable by BP I, BP II, the Issuers or any Senior Secured Note Guarantor under or in connection with the Senior Secured Notes, including damages. Any amount with respect to the Senior Secured Notes received or recovered in a currency other than US Dollars, whether as a result of, or the enforcement of, a judgment or order of a court of any jurisdiction, in the winding-up or dissolution of the Issuers or any Senior Secured Note Guarantor or otherwise by any secured noteholder or by the Trustee, in respect of any sum expressed to be due to it from the Issuers or any Senior Secured Note Guarantor will only constitute a discharge to the Issuers or any Senior Secured Note Guarantor to the extent of the US Dollar amount which the recipient is able to purchase with the amount so received or recovered in that other currency on the date of that receipt or recovery (or, if it is not practicable to make that purchase on that date, on the first date on which it is practicable to do so).
If that US Dollar amount is less than the US Dollar amount expressed to be due to the recipient or the Trustee under any Senior Secured Note, BP I, BP II, the Issuers and any Senior Secured Note Guarantor will indemnify such recipient and/or the Trustee against any loss sustained by it as a result. In any event, BP I, BP II, the Issuers and any Senior Secured Note Guarantor will indemnify the recipient and/or the Trustee against the cost of making any such purchase. For the purposes of this currency indemnity provision, it will be prima facie evidence of the matter stated therein for the holder of a Senior Secured Note or the Trustee to certify in a manner satisfactory to the Issuers (indicating the sources of information used) the loss it Incurred in making any such purchase. These indemnities constitute a separate and independent obligation from BP I, BP II, the Issuers and any Senior Secured Note Guarantor’s other obligations, will give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, will apply irrespective of any waiver granted by any holder of a Senior Secured Note or the Trustee (other than a waiver of the indemnities set out herein) and will continue in full force and effect despite any other judgment, order, claim or proof for a liquidated amount in respect of any sum due under any Senior Secured Note or to the Trustee.

46





Except as otherwise specifically set forth herein, (a) for purposes of determining compliance with any euro-denominated restriction herein, the Euro Equivalent amount for purposes hereof that is denominated in a non-euro currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such non-euro amount is Incurred or made, as the case may be, and (b) for purposes of determining compliance with any US Dollar-denominated restriction herein, the US Dollar Equivalent amount for purposes hereof that is denominated in a non-US Dollar currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such non-US Dollar amount is Incurred or made, as the case may be.
ARTICLE III
    

Redemption
SECTION 3.01.
    
Redemption. The Senior Secured Notes of any series may be redeemed, in whole or in part, from time to time, subject to the conditions and at the redemption prices set forth in Section 5 or 6 of the applicable form of Senior Secured Note set forth in Exhibits A-1 and Exhibit A-2, which are hereby incorporated by reference and made a part of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture.

If the Issuers elect to redeem Senior Secured Notes pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of Section 5 or the optional tax redemption provisions of Section 6 of the applicable form of Senior Secured Note, they shall notify the Trustee in writing of (i) the paragraph of such Senior Secured Note or the Section of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture pursuant to which the redemption shall occur, (ii) the redemption date and the record date, as applicable, (iii) the applicable series and the principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes to be redeemed and (iv) the redemption price.

Such notice shall be accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel from each Issuer to the effect that such redemption complies with the conditions herein. If fewer than all of the Senior Secured Notes are to be redeemed, the record date relating to such redemption shall be selected by the Issuers and given to the Trustee, which record date shall be not fewer than 15 days after the date of notice to the Trustee. Any such notice may be canceled at any time prior to notice of such redemption being delivered to any Holder and shall thereby be void and of no effect.
In the case of a redemption provided for by Section 6 of the applicable form of Senior Secured Note prior to the publication or mailing of any notice of redemption of Senior Secured Notes pursuant to the foregoing, each Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee (with a copy to the relevant Paying Agent) (a) an Officers’ Certificate stating that they are entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to their right so to redeem have been satisfied and (b) an opinion of an independent tax counsel of recognized standing and satisfactory to the Trustee to the effect that the circumstances referred to in Section 6 of the form of Senior Secured Note exist. The Trustee shall accept such Officers’ Certificate and opinion as sufficient evidence of the satisfaction of the conditions precedent described above without further inquiry, in which event it shall be conclusive and binding on the Holders. Any such notice may be canceled at any time prior to notice of such redemption being mailed to any Holder and shall thereby be void and of no effect.
SECTION 3.04.
    
Selection of Senior Secured Notes to Be Redeemed. If less than all of the Senior Secured Notes of a series are to be redeemed or are required to be repurchased at any time, the Trustee will select such Senior Secured Notes for redemption or repurchase on a pro rata basis, to the extent practicable and in compliance with the requirements of DTC and any stock exchange on which the applicable Senior Secured Notes are then admitted to trading of which the Trustee shall have been notified in writing by the Issuers; provided, however, that no Senior Secured Note of $2,000 in aggregate principal amount or less, or other than in an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, shall be redeemed in part.
SECTION 3.05.
    
Notice of Optional Redemption. (a) At least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date pursuant to Section 5 or Section 6 of the applicable form of Senior Secured Note, the Issuers shall deliver or cause to be delivered by electronic transmission or mailed by first-class mail, postage prepaid, at their respective addresses as they appear on the registration books of the Registrar (or otherwise deliver such notice in accordance with applicable DTC procedures), a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Senior Secured Notes are to be redeemed; provided, however, that with respect to Definitive Securities only, the Issuers shall mail such notice to Holders by first-class mail, postage prepaid, at their respective addresses as they appear on the registration books of the Registrar.
Any such notice shall identify the Senior Secured Notes to be redeemed and shall state:

47





(i)

(vi)
    that, unless the Issuers default in making such redemption payment or the Paying Agent is prohibited from making such payment pursuant to the terms of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, interest on the Senior Secured Notes (or a portion thereof) called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date;
(vii)
    the paragraph of the Senior Secured Notes and/or Section of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture pursuant to which the Senior Secured Notes called for redemption are being redeemed;
(viii)
    the CUSIP and ISIN, if any, printed on the Senior Secured Notes being redeemed; and

    At the Issuers’ request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Issuers’ names and at the Issuers’ expense. In such event, the Issuers shall provide the Trustee with the information required by this Section 3.05 at least one Business Day (or as soon as commercially practicable thereafter) prior to the date such notice is to be provided to Holders.
SECTION 3.06.
    
Effect of Notice of Redemption. Once notice of redemption is delivered in accordance with Section 3.05, the Senior Secured Notes called for redemption become due and payable on the redemption date and at the redemption price stated in the notice, except as provided in this Section. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Senior Secured Notes shall be paid at the redemption price stated in the notice, plus accrued interest, to, but not including, the redemption date; provided, however, that if the redemption date is after a regular record date and on or prior to the interest payment date, the accrued interest shall be payable to the Holder of the redeemed Senior Secured Notes registered on the relevant record date.

Any notice of any redemption may, at the Issuers’ discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, the completion of an Equity Offering, a Change of Control, a financing or any other transaction or event. In addition, if such redemption or notice is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice may state that, in the Issuers’ discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Issuers in their 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, or, in the Issuers’ sole determination, may not be, satisfied (or waived by the Issuers in their sole discretion) by the redemption date, or by the redemption date so delayed.

    in the event that an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of permitted Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock described in clauses 4.03(b)(i) through (xxix) or is entitled to be Incurred pursuant to Section 4.03(a), the Issuers shall, in their sole discretion, classify or reclassify, or later divide, classify or reclassify, such item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this Section 4.03;
provided, however, that Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement outstanding or incurred on the Issue Date shall be deemed to have been Incurred pursuant to Section 4.03(b)(i)(A) (or Section 4.03(b)(i)(B) to the extent such Indebtedness is a revolving credit facility) and the Issuers shall not be permitted to reclassify all or any portion of such Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement outstanding or Incurred on the Issue Date; and
(ii)
    the Issuers will be entitled to divide and classify an item of Indebtedness in more than one of the types of Indebtedness described in Sections 4.03(a) and (b) above, and in that connection shall be entitled to treat a portion of such Indebtedness as having been Incurred under Section 4.03(a) and thereafter the remainder of such Indebtedness having been Incurred under Section 4.03(b).
(d)
    Accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the payment of interest or dividends in the form of additional Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable, accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies will not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock for purposes of this Section 4.03. Guarantees of, or obligations in respect of letters of credit relating to, Indebtedness that is otherwise included in the determination of a particular amount of Indebtedness shall not be included in the determination of such amount of Indebtedness;
provided, however, that the Incurrence of the Indebtedness represented by such guarantee or letter of credit, as the case may be, was in compliance with this Section 4.03.
(e)
    For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.03, (i) the Euro Equivalent of the principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in another currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was Incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first drawn, in the case of Indebtedness Incurred under a revolving credit facility;
provided, however, that (a) if such Indebtedness is Incurred to Refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a currency other than euro, and such refinancing would cause the applicable euro-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such euro-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being Refinanced; (b) the Euro Equivalent of the principal amount of any such Indebtedness outstanding on the Issue Date shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the Issue Date; and (c) if any such Indebtedness is subject to a Currency Agreement with respect to the currency in which such Indebtedness is denominated covering principal, premium, if any, and interest on such Indebtedness, the amount of such Indebtedness and such interest and premium, if any, shall be determined after giving effect

55





to all payments in respect thereof under such Currency Agreements and (ii) the US Dollar Equivalent of the principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in another currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was Incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first drawn, in the case of Indebtedness Incurred under a revolving credit facility; provided, however, that (a) if such Indebtedness is Incurred to Refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a currency other than US Dollars, and such refinancing would cause the applicable US Dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such US Dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being Refinanced; (b) the US Dollar Equivalent of the principal amount of any such Indebtedness outstanding on the Issue Date shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the Issue Date; and (c) if any such Indebtedness is subject to a Currency Agreement with respect to the currency in which such Indebtedness is denominated covering principal, premium, if any, and interest on such Indebtedness, the amount of such Indebtedness and such interest and premium, if any, shall be determined after giving effect to all payments in respect thereof under such Currency Agreements.
(f)
    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.03, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that BP I, BP II and the Restricted Subsidiaries may Incur pursuant to this Section 4.03 shall not be deemed to be exceeded, with respect to any outstanding Indebtedness, solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies. The principal amount of any Indebtedness Incurred to Refinance other Indebtedness, if Incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being Refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Refinancing Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.
(g)
    For all purposes of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, (1) unsecured Indebtedness will not be treated as subordinated or junior to Secured Indebtedness merely because it is unsecured, (2) Senior Indebtedness will not be treated as subordinated or junior to any other Senior Indebtedness merely because it has junior priority with respect to the same collateral, (3) Indebtedness of such Person which is not guaranteed will not be treated as subordinated or junior to Indebtedness that is guaranteed merely because of such guarantee and (4) Indebtedness under any Secured Indebtedness will not be deemed to be subordinated because of the application of waterfall or other payment‑ordering or collateral-sharing provisions affecting any such Secured Indebtedness.
SECTION 4.04.
    
Limitation on Restricted Payments. (c) BP I and BP II will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly:
(i)
    declare or pay any dividend or make any distribution on account of BP I’s, BP II’s or any Restricted Subsidiaries’ Equity Interests or pay any amounts in respect of Subordinated Shareholder Funding, including any payment made in connection with any merger, amalgamation or consolidation involving BP I or BP II (other than (A) dividends or distributions by BP I or BP II payable solely in Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of BP I or BP II or in Subordinated Shareholder Funding of BP I or BP II; (B) dividends or distributions payable to BP I, BP II or a Restricted Subsidiary or (C) in the case of any dividend or distribution payable on or in respect of any class or series of securities issued by a Restricted Subsidiary other than a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary, such dividends or distributions paid to minority shareholders;
provided, however, that BP I, BP II or a Restricted Subsidiary receives at least its pro rata share of such dividend or distribution in accordance with its Equity Interests in such class or series of securities (except to the extent non-pro rata payments of such dividends or distributions are required by law or under the terms of any agreement in effect on the Issue Date);
(ii)
    purchase or otherwise acquire or retire for value any Equity Interests of BP I, BP II or any direct or indirect parent of BP I or BP II, in each case held by Persons other than BP I, BP II or a Restricted Subsidiary;
(iii)
    make any principal payment on, or redeem, repurchase, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value, in each case prior to any scheduled repayment or scheduled maturity, any Subordinated Shareholder Funding, any Subordinated Indebtedness of BP I, BP II, the Issuers or any Senior Secured Note Guarantor (other than the payment, redemption, repurchase, defeasance, acquisition or retirement of (A) Subordinated Indebtedness in anticipation of satisfying a sinking fund obligation, principal installment or final maturity, in each case due within one year of the date of such payment, redemption, repurchase, defeasance, acquisition or retirement and (B) any Subordinated Indebtedness between any of BP I, BP II and any Restricted Subsidiary or between any of the Restricted Subsidiaries); or
(iv)
    make any Restricted Investment,

56





(all such payments and other actions set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above being collectively referred to as “Restricted Payments”), unless, at the time of such Restricted Payment:
(1)
    no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof;
(2)
    if such Restricted Payment is made in reliance on clause (1) of the definition of Cumulative Credit, immediately after giving effect to such transaction on a pro forma basis, BP I or BP II could Incur $1.00 of additional Indebtedness under the provisions of Section 4.03(a); and
(3)
    such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all other Restricted Payments made by BP I, BP II and the Restricted Subsidiaries after the RP Reference Date (and not returned or rescinded) (including Restricted Payments permitted by clauses (i), (iv) (only to the extent of one-half of the amounts paid pursuant to such clause), (vi) and (viii) of Section 4.04(b), but excluding all other Restricted Payments permitted by Section 4.04(b)), is less than the amount equal to the Cumulative Credit.
(d)
    The provisions of Section 4.04(a) will not prohibit:
(i)
    the payment of any dividend or distribution or the consummation of any redemption, capital return or similar transaction within 60 days after the date of declaration thereof (or such longer waiting period between declaration and consummation as may be required by applicable law or market practice), if at the date of declaration such payment would have complied with the provisions of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture;
(ii)
    (A) the redemption, repurchase, retirement or other acquisition of any Equity Interests (“
Retired Capital Stock”) or Subordinated Indebtedness or Subordinated Shareholder Funding of BP I, BP II, any direct or indirect parent of BP I, BP II or any Restricted Subsidiary in exchange for, or out of the proceeds of, the substantially concurrent sale of, Equity Interests or Subordinated Shareholder Funding of BP I, BP II or any direct or indirect parent of BP I or BP II or contributions to the equity capital of BP I or BP II (other than any Disqualified Stock or any Equity Interests sold to a Subsidiary of BP I or BP II) (collectively, including any such contributions, “Refunding Capital Stock”), (B) the declaration and payment of dividends on the Retired Capital Stock out of the proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale (other than to a Subsidiary of BP I or BP II) of Refunding Capital Stock and (C) if immediately prior to the retirement of Retired Capital Stock, the declaration and payment of dividends thereon was permitted pursuant to Section 4.04(b)(vi), the declaration and payment of dividends on the Refunding Capital Stock in an aggregate amount per year no greater than the aggregate amount of dividends per annum that were declarable and payable on such Retired Capital Stock immediately prior to such retirement;
(iii)
    the redemption, repurchase, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement of Subordinated Indebtedness of BP I, BP II or any Senior Secured Note Guarantor made by exchange for, or out of the proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale of, new Indebtedness of BP I, BP II or a Senior Secured Note Guarantor which is Incurred in accordance with Section 4.03 so long as:
(A)
    the principal amount (or accreted value, if applicable) of such new Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount (or accreted value, if applicable), plus any accrued and unpaid interest, of the Subordinated Indebtedness being so redeemed, repurchased, defeased, acquired or retired for value (plus the amount of any premium required to be paid under the terms of the instrument governing the Subordinated Indebtedness being so redeemed, repurchased, acquired or retired, any tender premiums, and any defeasance costs, fees and expenses Incurred in connection therewith);
(B)
    such Indebtedness is subordinated to the Senior Secured Notes or the related Senior Secured Note Guarantee, as the case may be, at least to the same extent as such Subordinated Indebtedness so purchased, exchanged, redeemed, repurchased, defeased, acquired or retired for value;
(C)
    such Indebtedness has a final scheduled maturity date equal to or later than the earlier of (1) the final scheduled maturity date of the Subordinated Indebtedness being so redeemed,

57





repurchased, defeased, acquired or retired or (2) 91 days following the maturity date of the Senior Secured Notes; and
(D)
    such Indebtedness has a Weighted Average Life to Maturity at the time Incurred that is not less than the shorter of (1) the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Subordinated Indebtedness being so redeemed, repurchased, defeased, acquired or retired and (2) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity that would result if all payments of principal on the Subordinated Indebtedness being redeemed, repurchased, defeased, acquired or retired that were due on or after the date one year following the last maturity date of any Senior Secured Notes then outstanding were instead due on such date one year following the last date of maturity of the Senior Secured Notes;
provided, however, that in the case of this subclause (D)(2), such Indebtedness does not provide for any scheduled principal payments prior to the maturity date of the Senior Secured Notes in excess of, or prior to, the scheduled principal payments due prior to such maturity for the Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock being Refinanced;
(iv)
    a Restricted Payment to pay for the purchase, repurchase, retirement, defeasance, redemption or other acquisition for value of Equity Interests of BP I, BP II or any direct or indirect parent of BP I or BP II held by any future, present or former employee, director, officer or consultant of BP I, BP II or any direct or indirect parent of BP I or BP II or any Subsidiary of BP I or BP II pursuant to any management equity plan or stock option plan or any other management or employee benefit plan or other agreement or arrangement;
provided, however, that the aggregate Restricted Payments made under this clause (iv) do not exceed the greater of (x) $9.0 million and (y) 0.05% of Total Assets at the time of such Restricted Payment in any calendar year (with unused amounts in any calendar year being permitted to be carried over for the two succeeding calendar years subject to a maximum payment (without giving effect to the following proviso) of the greater of (x) $18.0 million and (y) 0.1% of Total Assets at the time of such Restricted Payment in any calendar year); provided further, however, that such amount in any calendar year may be increased by an amount not to exceed:
(A)
    the cash proceeds received by BP I, BP II or any Restricted Subsidiaries from the sale of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of BP I, BP II or any direct or indirect parent of BP I or BP II (to the extent contributed to BP I or BP II) to employees, directors, officers or consultants of BP I, BP II and the Restricted Subsidiaries or any direct or indirect parent of BP I or BP II that occurs after the Reference Date;
provided, however, that the amount of such cash proceeds utilized for any such repurchase, retirement, other acquisition or dividend will not increase the amount available for Restricted Payments under clause (2) of the definition of Cumulative Credit; plus
(B)
    the cash proceeds of key man life insurance policies received by BP I, BP II or any direct or indirect parent of BP I or BP II (to the extent contributed to BP I or BP II) or the Restricted Subsidiaries after the Reference Date;
provided, however, that the Issuers may elect to apply all or any portion of the aggregate increase contemplated by clauses (A) and (B) above in any calendar year; and provided further, however, that cancellation of Indebtedness owing to BP I, BP II or any Restricted Subsidiary from any future, present or former employee, director, officer or consultant of BP I, BP II or any Restricted Subsidiary or any direct or indirect parent of BP I or BP II in connection with any repurchase or other acquisition of Equity Interests of BP I or BP II or any of its direct or indirect parents will not be deemed to constitute a Restricted Payment for purposes of this Section 4.04 or any other provision of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture;

provided, however, that, (1) for the most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date of issuance of such Designated Preferred Stock or the declaration of such dividends on Refunding Capital Stock that is Preferred Stock, after giving effect to such issuance (and the payment of dividends or distributions) on a pro forma basis, BP I and BP II would have had a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of at least

58





2.00 to 1.00 on a combined basis and (2) in the case of subclause (B) of this clause (vi), the aggregate amount of dividends declared and paid does not exceed the net cash proceeds actually received by BP I and BP II from any such sale or issuance of Designated Preferred Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) issued after the Reference Date or contributed by Subordinated Shareholder Funding to BP I or BP II after the Reference Date;
(vii)

provided, however, that for so long as such direct or indirect parent owns no material assets other than Equity Interests in BP I or BP II or any direct or indirect parent of BP I or BP II, such fees and expenses shall be deemed for purposes of this clause (xiii)(A) to be attributable to such ownership or operation;

(xix)
    payments or distributions to dissenting stockholders pursuant to applicable law or in connection with a consolidation, amalgamation, merger or transfer of all or Substantially All of the assets of BP I, BP II and the Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, that complies with Section 5.01;
provided, however, that as a result of such consolidation, amalgamation, merger or transfer of assets, the Issuers shall have made a Change of Control Offer (if required by this Senior Secured Notes Indenture) and that all Senior Secured Notes tendered by holders in connection with such Change of Control Offer have been repurchased, redeemed or acquired for value; and
(xx)
    [reserved];
(xxi)
    other Restricted Payments made by BP I, BP II or any Restricted Subsidiary;
provided, however, that, immediately after giving pro forma effect thereto and to the Incurrence of any Indebtedness the net cash proceeds of which are used to finance such Restricted Payment, the Total Net Leverage Ratio would be no greater than 4.50 to 1.00; provided, however, that at the time of, and after giving effect to any Restricted Payment permitted under this clause (xxi), no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof.
(e)
    As of the Issue Date, BP II will not have any Subsidiaries and all of BP I’s Subsidiaries, including the Issuers, will be Restricted Subsidiaries. BP I and BP II will not permit any Unrestricted Subsidiary to become a Restricted Subsidiary except pursuant to the definition of “
Unrestricted Subsidiary”. For purposes of designating any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, all outstanding Investments by BP I, BP II and the Restricted Subsidiaries (except to the extent repaid)

60





in the Subsidiary so designated will be deemed to be Restricted Payments or Permitted Investments in an amount determined as set forth in the last sentence of the definition of “Investments”. Such designation will only be permitted if a Restricted Payment or Permitted Investment in such amount would be permitted at such time and if such Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.
(f)
    If any Investment or Restricted Payment would be permitted pursuant Section 4.04(b) or the definition of “Permitted Investments”, the Issuer may divide and classify such Investment or Restricted Payment (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies with Section 4.04 and, except for Section 4.04(b)(xxi), may later divide and reclassify any such Investment or Restricted Payment so long as the Investment or Restricted Payment (as so divided or reclassified) would be permitted to be made in reliance on the applicable exception as of the date of such reclassification. For the avoidance of doubt, the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries may not reclassify any other Restricted Payment or Permitted Investment as having been permitted under Section 4.04(b)(xxi).
SECTION 4.05.
    
Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Subsidiaries. (a) BP I and BP II will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or consensual restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to:
(iii)
    (A) pay dividends or make any other distributions to BP I, BP II or any Restricted Subsidiaries (1) on its Capital Stock or (2) with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits; or (B) pay any Indebtedness owed to BP I, BP II or any Restricted Subsidiaries;

(7)
    any agreement or other instrument of a Person, which is acquired by or merged, consolidated or amalgamated with or into BP I, BP II or any Restricted Subsidiary which was in existence at the time of such acquisition, merger, consolidation or amalgamation or which was assumed in connection with the acquisition of assets from another Person (but not created in contemplation thereof or to provide all or any portion of the funds or credit support utilized to consummate such acquisition, merger, consolidation or amalgamation), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person and its Subsidiaries, or the property or assets of the Person and its Subsidiaries, so acquired;

provided, however, that such amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are, in the good faith judgment of the Issuers, no more restrictive with respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions than those contained in the dividend or other payment restrictions prior to such amendment, modification, restatement, renewal, increase, supplement, refunding, replacement or refinancing.

(b)
    For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.05, (i) the priority of any Preferred Stock in receiving dividends or liquidating distributions prior to dividends or liquidating distributions being paid on ordinary shares shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make distributions on Capital Stock and (ii) the subordination of (or remedy bars in respect of) loans or advances made to BP I, BP II or a Restricted Subsidiary to other Indebtedness Incurred by BP I, BP II or any such Restricted Subsidiary shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make loans or advances.
SECTION 4.06.
    
Asset Sales. (a) BP I and BP II will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiaries to, cause or make an Asset Sale, unless (x) BP I, BP II or any Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value of the assets sold or otherwise disposed of, and (y) at least 75% of the consideration therefor received by BP I, BP II or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of Cash Equivalents; provided, however, that for purposes of clause (y) the amount of:
(v)
    any liabilities (as shown on BP I’s, BP II’s or any Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet or in the notes thereto) of BP I, BP II or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Senior Secured Notes or any Senior Secured Note Guarantee) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets, or that are otherwise cancelled or terminated in connection with the transaction with such transferee,
(vi)
    any notes or other obligations or other securities or assets received by BP I, BP II or such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by BP I, BP II or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash within 180 days of the receipt thereof (to the extent of the cash received),
(vii)
    Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary that is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such Asset Sale, to the extent that BP I, BP II and each other Restricted Subsidiary are released from any guarantee of payment of such Indebtedness in connection with the Asset Sale, and
(viii)
    any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by BP I, BP II or any Restricted Subsidiaries in such Asset Sale having an aggregate Fair Market Value, taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (c) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed the greater of (x) $275.0 million and (y) 1.5% of Total Assets at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-cash Consideration (with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value),
shall be deemed to be Cash Equivalents for the purposes of this Section 4.06(a).
(b)
    Within 18 months after BP I, BP II or any Restricted Subsidiary’s receipt of the Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale, BP I, BP II or such Restricted Subsidiary may apply an amount equal to the Net Proceeds from such Asset Sale, at its option:
(xxii)
    to repay (A) Obligations constituting First Lien Obligations (and, if such Indebtedness repaid is under a revolving credit facility, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto);
provided, however, that if any First Lien Obligations other than the Senior Secured Notes are repaid with the Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale, the Issuers will (x) equally and ratably reduce Obligations under the Senior Secured Notes through open-market purchases (provided, however, that such purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof) or by optional redemption or (y) make an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for an Asset Sale Offer) to all holders to purchase at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, the principal amount of Senior Secured Notes that would be reduced under clause (x) above or (B) Obligations constituting Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary of BP I that is not an Issuer or a Senior Secured Note Guarantor, in the case of each of clauses (A) and (B), other than Indebtedness owed to RGHL or its Affiliates;
(xxiii)
    to make an investment in any one or more businesses (
provided, however, that if such investment is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock of a Person, such acquisition results in such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of BP I if it is not already a Restricted Subsidiary of BP I), assets, or property or capital expenditures (including refurbishments), in each case (a) used or useful in a Similar Business or (b) that replace the properties and assets that are subject to such Asset Sale; or
(xxiv)
    any combination of the foregoing.

63





In the case of Section 4.06(b)(ii), a binding commitment shall be treated as a permitted application of the Net Proceeds from the date of such commitment; provided, however, that in the event such binding commitment is later canceled or terminated for any reason before such Net Proceeds are so applied, BP I, BP II or such Restricted Subsidiary enters into another binding commitment (a “Second Commitment”) within nine months of such cancellation or termination of the prior binding commitment; provided, further, that BP I, BP II or such Restricted Subsidiary may only enter into a Second Commitment under the foregoing provision one time with respect to each Asset Sale.
Pending the final application of any such Net Proceeds, BP I, BP II or such Restricted Subsidiary may temporarily reduce Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility, if any, or otherwise invest such Net Proceeds in any manner not prohibited by this Senior Secured Notes Indenture. The Holders may not have control of, or a perfected security interest in, Net Proceeds of any Collateral, which could have the effect of diminishing the value of, and ability to collect with respect to, that Collateral. Any Net Proceeds from any Asset Sale that are not invested or applied as provided and within the time period set forth in the immediately two preceding paragraphs (it being understood that any portion of such Net Proceeds used to make an offer to purchase Senior Secured Notes, as described in clause (i) of this Section 4.06(b), shall be deemed to have been invested whether or not such offer is accepted) will be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds”. When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds (determined by adding all Excess Proceeds since the Issue Date) exceeds $100.0 million (or, if an asset sale offer is required at a lower threshold under any of the Issuers’ Existing Indentures, the 2013 Senior Note Indenture or the 2013 Senior Subordinated Note Indenture, such lower threshold), the Issuers shall make an offer to all holders of Senior Secured Notes (and, at the option of the Issuers, to holders of any First Lien Obligations of an Issuer or Senior Secured Note Guarantor or any other Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary of BP I that is not an Obligor) (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to purchase on a pro rata basis the maximum principal amount of Senior Secured Notes (and such First Lien Obligations and other Indebtedness), that is at least $2,000 and an integral multiple of $1,000 that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof (or, in the event such First Lien Obligations or other Indebtedness was issued with significant original issue discount, 100% of the accreted value thereof), plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any (or, in respect of such First Lien Obligations or other Indebtedness, such lesser price, if any, as may be provided for by the terms of such First Lien Obligations or other Indebtedness), to the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Senior Secured Notes Indenture and the agreement governing such First Lien Obligations or other Indebtedness. The Issuers will commence an Asset Sale Offer with respect to Excess Proceeds within ten (10) Business Days after the date that Excess Proceeds exceed $100.0 million (or, if an asset sale offer is required at a lower threshold under any of the Issuers’ Existing Indentures, the 2013 Senior Note Indenture or the 2013 Senior Subordinated Note Indenture, such lower threshold) by mailing (or otherwise delivering in accordance with applicable DTC procedures) the notice required pursuant to the terms of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, with a copy to the Trustee. The Issuers may satisfy the foregoing obligation with respect to such Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale by making an Asset Sale Offer with respect to all or part of the available Net Proceeds in advance of being required to do so by this Senior Secured Notes Indenture. To the extent that the aggregate amount of Senior Secured Notes (and such First Lien Obligations or other Indebtedness) tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, BP I, BP II or such Restricted Subsidiary may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for general corporate purposes. If the aggregate principal amount of Senior Secured Notes (and such First Lien Obligations or other Indebtedness) surrendered by holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Senior Secured Notes and the relevant Trustee or other agent shall select such First Lien Obligations or other Indebtedness to be purchased in the manner described below. Upon completion of any such Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero, and in the case of an Asset Sale Offer being effected in advance of being required to do so by this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the amount of Net Proceeds the Issuers are offering to apply in such Asset Sale Offer shall be excluded in subsequent calculations of Excess Proceeds. An Asset Sale Offer need not be made by the Issuers until the date that is 18 months after the receipt of the Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale, the proceeds of which, in aggregate with all funds not applied in accordance with this Section 4.06 or the subject of an Asset Sale Offer, exceed $100.0 million (or, if an asset sale offer is required at a lower threshold under any of the Issuers’ Existing Indentures, the 2013 Senior Note Indenture or the 2013 Senior Subordinated Note Indenture, such lower threshold).
(c)
    The Issuers will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations to the extent such laws or regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Senior Secured Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the Issuers will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations described in this Senior Secured Notes Indenture by virtue thereof.
(d)
    If more Senior Secured Notes (and such First Lien Obligations or other Indebtedness) are tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer than the Issuers are required to purchase, the Issuers shall select the Senior Secured Notes and such First Lien Obligations or other Indebtedness, as applicable, to be purchased on a
pro rata basis based on the accreted value or principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes and such First Lien Obligations or other Indebtedness, as applicable, tendered. If more Senior Secured Notes are tendered pursuant to such Asset Sale Offer than the Issuers are required to purchase, selection of such Senior Secured Notes for purchase will be made by the Trustee on a pro rata basis, to the extent practicable and in compliance with the requirements of DTC and any stock exchange on which the Senior Secured Notes are then admitted to trading; provided, however, that no Senior Secured Notes of $2,000 or less shall be purchased in part. Selection of such First Lien Obligations or other Indebtedness will be made pursuant to the terms of such First Lien Obligations or other Indebtedness.

64





(e)
    An Asset Sale Offer insofar as it relates to the Senior Secured Notes, will remain open for a period of not less than 20 Business Days following its commencement (the “
Offer Period”). No later than five Business Days after the termination of the applicable Offer Period the Issuers will purchase the principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes (and purchase or repay any relevant First Lien Obligations or other Indebtedness required to be so purchased or repaid as set out above) validly tendered.
(f)
    To the extent that any portion of the Net Proceeds payable in respect of the Senior Secured Notes is denominated in a currency other than the currency in which the relevant Senior Secured Notes are denominated, the amount payable in respect of such Senior Secured Notes shall not exceed the net amount of funds in the currency in which such Senior Secured Notes are denominated as is actually received by BP I, BP II or such Restricted Subsidiary upon converting the relevant portion of the Net Proceeds into such currency.
(g)
    Notices of an Asset Sale Offer shall be mailed by first‑class mail, postage prepaid (or otherwise delivered in accordance with applicable DTC procedures) at least 30 but not more than 60 days before the purchase date to each holder of Senior Secured Notes at such holder’s registered address. If any Senior Secured Note is to be purchased in part only, any notice of purchase that relates to such Senior Secured Note shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof that has been or is to be purchased.
(h)
    The Issuers’ obligation under this Section 4.06 to make an Asset Sale Offer may be waived or modified with the consent of a majority in principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes.
(i)
    Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, to the extent that repatriating any or all of the Net Proceeds from any Asset Sale by a Foreign Subsidiary (x) would result in material adverse tax consequences to BP I, BP II, any Foreign Subsidiary or any Restricted Subsidiary or (y) is prohibited or delayed by applicable local law from being repatriated to the United States (in the case of the foregoing clauses (x) and (y), as reasonably determined by BP I or BP II in good faith which determination shall be conclusive), the portion of such Net Proceeds so affected will not be required to be applied in compliance with the foregoing provisions, and such amounts may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary or invested in, distributed to or otherwise transferred to any other Foreign Subsidiary;
provided, however, that, in the case of clause (y), if the Net Proceeds whose repatriation is prohibited or delayed by applicable local law exceed $10.0 million, BP I and BP II shall take commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to take all actions reasonably required by the applicable local law, applicable organizational impediments or other impediment to permit such repatriation, and if such repatriation of any of such affected Net Proceeds can be achieved such repatriation will be promptly effected and such repatriated Net Proceeds will be applied (whether or not repatriation actually occurs) in compliance with the foregoing provisions. The time periods set forth in this covenant shall not start until such time as the Net Proceeds may be repatriated whether or not such repatriation actually occurs.
SECTION 4.07.
    
Transactions with Affiliates. (b) BP I and BP II will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction or series of transactions, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Issuers (each of the foregoing, an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate consideration in excess of $25.0 million, unless:
(xxv)
    such Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are not materially less favorable to BP I, BP II or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that could have been obtained in a comparable transaction by BP I, BP II or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person; and
(xxvi)
    with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $50.0 million, BP I or BP II delivers to the Trustee a resolution adopted in good faith by the majority of the Board of Directors of BP I or BP II, approving such Affiliate Transaction and set forth in an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (i) above.

provided, however, that such parent shall have no material liabilities and no material assets other than cash, Cash Equivalents and the Capital Stock of BP I and BP II and such merger, consolidation or amalgamation is otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture and effected for a bona fide business purpose;

(a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each holder will have the right to require the Issuers to repurchase all or any part of such holder’s Senior Secured Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), except to the extent the Issuers have previously elected to redeem all of the Senior Secured Notes as described under Article III of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture. In the event that at the time of such Change of Control the terms of any Bank Indebtedness restrict or prohibit the repurchase of Senior Secured Notes pursuant to this Section 4.08, then prior to the mailing (or delivery) of the notice to holders provided for in Section 4.08(c), but in any event within 45 days following any Change of Control, the Issuers shall: (i) repay in full all such Bank Indebtedness or, if doing so will allow the purchase of Senior Secured Notes, offer to repay in full all such Bank Indebtedness and repay the Bank Indebtedness of each lender that has accepted such offer; or (ii) obtain the requisite consent under the agreements governing such Bank Indebtedness to permit the repurchase of the Senior Secured Notes as provided for in Section 4.08(c).

Change of Control Offer”) to each holder with a copy to the Trustee stating:
(xxv)
    that a Change of Control has occurred and that such holder has the right to require the Issuers to repurchase such holder’s Senior Secured Notes at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of holders of record on a record date to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date) (the “
Change of Control Payment”);
(xxvi)
    the circumstances and relevant facts and financial information regarding such Change of Control;
(xxvii)
    the repurchase date (which shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed or delivered) (the “
Change of Control Payment Date”);
(xxviii)
    the instructions determined by the Issuers, consistent with this Section 4.08, that a holder must follow in order to have its Senior Secured Notes purchased; and

The Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Trustee or the Issuers receive not later than one Business Day prior to the purchase date a facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Senior Secured Note which was delivered for purchase by the Holder and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Senior Secured Note purchased.
(e)
    A Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, and conditioned upon such Change of Control. If such Change of Control Offer is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such Change of Control Offer shall state that, in the Issuers’ discretion, the Change of Control Payment Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Issuers in their sole discretion), or such Change of Control Offer may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been or, in the Issuers’ sole determination, may not be satisfied (or waived by the Issuers in their sole discretion).

68





(f)
    Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.08, the Issuers will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Senior Secured Notes Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuers and purchases all Senior Secured Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer.

(i)
    [Reserved].
(j)
    Senior Secured Notes repurchased by the Issuers or an Affiliate pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will have the status of Senior Secured Notes issued but not outstanding or will be retired and canceled at the option of the Issuers. Senior Secured Notes purchased by an unaffiliated third party pursuant to Section 4.08(h) will have the status of Senior Secured Notes issued and outstanding.

(v)
    no Senior Secured Note Guarantee shall be required as a result of any Indebtedness or guarantee of Indebtedness that existed at the time such Person became a Restricted Subsidiary if the Indebtedness or guarantee was not Incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary;
(vi)
    no such Senior Secured Note Guarantee need be secured unless required pursuant to Section 4.16;

The Issuers shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee and the Principal Paying Agent of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency.

provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Issuers of their obligation to maintain an office or agency for such purposes. The Issuers shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee and the Principal Paying Agent of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.
(c)
    The Issuers hereby designate the corporate trust office of the Trustee or its Agent as such office or agency of the Issuers in accordance with Section 2.04.
SECTION 4.15.
    
Withholding Taxes. (a) All payments made by any Issuer or any Senior Secured Note Guarantor or any successor in interest to any of the foregoing (each, a “Payor”) on or with respect to the Senior Secured Notes or any Senior Secured Note Guarantee will be made without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any Taxes unless such withholding or deduction is required by law or FATCA; provided, however that a Payor, in any case, may withhold from any interest payment made on the Senior Secured Notes to or for the benefit of any person who is not a “United States person,” as such term is defined for U.S. federal income tax purposes, U.S. federal withholding tax, and pay such withheld amounts to the Internal Revenue Service, unless such person provides documentation to such Payor such that an exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax would apply to such payment if interest on the Senior Secured Notes were treated as income from sources within the U.S. for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If any deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any Taxes imposed or levied by or on behalf of:

71





(i)
    any jurisdiction (other than the United States or any political subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein having power to tax) from or through which payment on the Senior Secured Notes or any Senior Secured Note Guarantee is made by such Payor, 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 or any political subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein having the power to tax) in which a Payor that actually makes a payment on the Senior Secured Notes or its Senior Secured Note Guarantee is organized or otherwise considered to be a resident for tax purposes, or any political subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein having the power to tax,
(each of clause (i) and (ii) of this Section 4.15(a), a “Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction”), will at any time be required from any payments made by a Payor with respect to the Senior Secured Notes or any Senior Secured Note Guarantee, including payments of principal, redemption price, interest or premium, if any, the Payor will pay (together with such payments) such additional amounts (the “Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary in order that the net amounts received in respect of such payments by the noteholders or the Trustee, as the case may be, after such withholding or deduction (including any such deduction or withholding from such Additional Amounts), will not be less than the amounts that would have been received in respect of such payments on the Senior Secured Notes or the Senior Secured Note Guarantees in the absence of such withholding or deduction; provided, however, that no such Additional Amounts will be payable for or on account of:
(1)
    any Taxes that would not have been so imposed or levied but for the existence of any present or former connection between the relevant secured noteholder (or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder of, or possessor of power over the relevant secured noteholder, if such secured noteholder is an estate, nominee, trust, partnership, limited liability company or corporation) and the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (including 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) but excluding, in each case, any connection arising solely from the acquisition, ownership or holding of such Senior Secured Note, the receipt of any payment in respect thereof or the perfection or enforcement of any security interest related to the Senior Secured Notes;
(2)
    any Taxes that would not have been so imposed or levied if the holder of the Senior Secured Note had complied with a reasonable request in writing of the Payor (such request being made at a time that would enable such holder acting reasonably to comply with that request) to make a declaration of nonresidence or any other claim or filing or satisfy any certification, information or reporting requirement for exemption from, or reduction in the rate of, withholding to which it is entitled (
provided, however, that such declaration of nonresidence or other claim, filing or requirement is required by the applicable law, treaty, regulation or administrative practice of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction as a precondition to exemption from the requirement to deduct or withhold all or a part of any such Taxes);
(3)
    any Taxes that are payable otherwise than by withholding from a payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest under the Senior Secured Notes or any Senior Secured Note Guarantee;
(4)
    any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, excise, transfer, personal property or similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge;
(5)
    [Reserved];
(6)
    except in the case of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Payor, any Taxes imposed in connection with a Senior Secured Note presented for payment by or on behalf of a secured noteholder or beneficial owner who would have been able to avoid such Tax by presenting the relevant Senior Secured Note to, or otherwise accepting payment from, another paying agent in a member state of the European Union;
(7)
    any Taxes arising under FATCA; or
(8)
    any combination of the above.

72





Such Additional Amounts will also not be payable (x) if the payment could have been made without such deduction or withholding if the beneficiary of the payment had presented the Senior Secured Note for payment (where presentation is required) within 30 days after the relevant payment was first made available for payment to the secured noteholder or (y) where, had the beneficial owner of the Senior Secured Note been the holder of the Senior Secured Note, such beneficial owner would not have been entitled to payment of Additional Amounts by reason of any of clauses (1) to (8) inclusive above.
(b)
    The Payor will (i) make any required withholding or deduction and (ii) remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing authority of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction in accordance with applicable law. Upon request, the Payor will use all reasonable efforts to obtain certified copies of tax receipts evidencing the payment of any Taxes so deducted or withheld from each relevant taxing authority of each Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction imposing such Taxes and will provide such certified copies to the Trustee. If, notwithstanding the efforts of such Payor to obtain such receipts, the same are not obtainable, such Payor will provide the Trustee with other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Holder.
(c)
    If any Payor will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts under or with respect to any payment made on the Senior Secured Notes, at least 30 days prior to the date of such payment, the Payor will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating the fact that Additional Amounts will be payable and the amount so payable and such other information necessary to enable the Paying Agent to pay Additional Amounts to noteholders on the relevant payment date (unless such obligation to pay Additional Amounts arises less than 45 days prior to the relevant payment date, in which case the Payor shall deliver such Officers’ Certificate and such other information as promptly as practicable after the date that is 30 days prior to the payment date, but no less than five (5) Business Days prior thereto, and otherwise in accordance with the requirements of DTC).
(d)
    Wherever in this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the Senior Secured Notes or any Senior Secured Note Guarantee there is mentioned, in any context: (i) the payment of principal, (ii) redemption prices or purchase prices in connection with a redemption or purchase of Senior Secured Notes, (iii) interest or (iv) any other amount payable on or with respect to any of the Senior Secured Notes or any Senior Secured Note Guarantee, such reference shall be deemed to include payment of Additional Amounts as described under this Section 4.15 to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof.
(e)
    The Payor will pay any present or future stamp, court or documentary Taxes, or any other excise, property or similar Taxes, charges or levies that arise in any jurisdiction from the execution, delivery, registration or enforcement of any Senior Secured Notes, this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, or any other document or instrument in relation thereto (other than a transfer of the Senior Secured Notes) excluding any such Taxes, charges or similar levies imposed by any jurisdiction that is not a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, and the Payor agrees to indemnify the noteholders and the Trustee for any such Taxes paid by such noteholders. The foregoing obligations will survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture and will apply
mutatis mutandis to any jurisdiction in which any successor to a Payor is organized or otherwise considered to be a resident for Tax purposes or any political subdivision or taxing authority or agency thereof or therein.
SECTION 4.16.
    
Future Collateral. Subject to the Reference Agreement Security Principles, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the acquisition by the Issuers or any Senior Secured Note Guarantor of any After-Acquired Collateral, the Issuers or such Senior Secured Note Guarantor shall execute and deliver such mortgages, deeds of trust, security instruments, financing statements and certificates and opinions of counsel as shall be reasonably necessary to vest in the Trustee and/or Collateral Agent, as may be applicable, a valid and, to the extent applicable in the applicable jurisdiction and required under the Reference Agreement Security Principles, perfected, security interest, subject only to Permitted Liens, in such After-Acquired Collateral and to have such After-Acquired Collateral (but subject to certain limitations, if applicable), added to the Collateral, and thereupon all provisions of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture relating to the Collateral shall be deemed to relate to such After-Acquired Collateral to the same extent and with the same force and effect; provided, however, that if granting such security interest in such After-Acquired Collateral requires the consent of a third party, the Issuers will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such consent with respect to the security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Trustee on behalf of the Holders of the Senior Secured Notes; provided further, however, that if such third party does not consent to the granting of such security interest after the use of such commercially reasonable efforts, the Issuers or such Senior Secured Note Guarantor, as the case may be, will not be required to provide such security interest. Under the commercially reasonable efforts standard, the Issuers will not be obligated to seek to obtain consent if, in the good faith determination of BP I, to do so would have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Issuers or the relevant Senior Secured Note Guarantors to conduct their operations and business in the ordinary course or if, in good faith determination of BP I, to do so would be inconsistent with the Reference Agreement Security Principles.
SECTION 4.17.
    
Impairment of Security Interest. (a) [Reserved].
(b)
    At the direction of the Issuers and without the consent of the Holders, the Trustee (or its agent or designee) and the

73





Collateral Agent shall from time to time enter into one or more amendments, extensions, renewals, restatements, supplements or other modifications or replacements to or of the Security Documents to: (i) cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency therein, (ii) provide for Permitted Liens or Liens otherwise permitted under Section 4.12, (iii) add to the Collateral or (iv) make any other change thereto that does not adversely affect the Holders in any material respect; provided, however, that, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), no Security Document may be amended, extended, renewed, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, in each case in any material respect, or replaced, unless contemporaneously with such amendment, extension, renewal, restatement, supplement, modification or renewal, the Issuers deliver to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent, either:
(i)
    a solvency opinion, in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee, from an Independent Financial Advisor satisfactory to the Trustee confirming the solvency of BP I, BP II and their respective Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, after giving effect to any transactions related to such amendment, extension, renewal, restatement, supplement, modification or replacement; or
(ii)
    an Opinion of Counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee confirming that, after giving effect to any transactions related to such amendment, extension, renewal, restatement, supplement, modification or replacement, the Lien or Liens securing the Senior Secured Notes created under the Security Documents so amended, extended, renewed, restated, supplemented, modified or replaced remain valid and, to the extent applicable in the jurisdiction and required under the Reference Agreement Security Principles, perfected, Liens.
SECTION 4.18.
    [Reserved.]
SECTION 4.19.
    
Suspension/Fall-Away of Covenants on Achievement of Investment Grade Status. (a) If (i) the Senior Secured Notes have Investment Grade Ratings from both Rating Agencies, and the Issuers have delivered written notice of such Investment Grade Ratings to the Trustee, and (ii) no Default has occurred and is continuing under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, then, beginning on that day, BP I, BP II and the Restricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to Sections 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.11, 4.16 and Section 5.01(a)(iv) of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture (the “Suspended Covenants”).
(b)
    In the event that BP I, BP II and the Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to the Suspended Covenants under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture for any period of time as a result of the foregoing, and on any subsequent date one or both of the Rating Agencies withdraw their Investment Grade Rating or downgrade the rating assigned to the Senior Secured Notes below an Investment Grade Rating, then the Suspended Covenants will be reinstated as of and from the date on which BP I, BP II or any Restricted Subsidiary obtains actual knowledge of such rating decline (any such date, a “
Reversion Date”). The period of time between the suspension of the covenants as set forth above and the Reversion Date is referred to as the “Suspension Period”. In the event of any such reinstatement, no action taken or omitted to be taken by BPI, BP II or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries prior to such reinstatement will give rise to a Default or Event of Default under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture with respect to the Senior Secured Notes; provided, however, that (1) with respect to Restricted Payments made on or after the Reversion Date, the amount of Restricted Payments made will be calculated as though Section 4.04 had been in effect prior to, but not during, the Suspension Period, (2) all Indebtedness Incurred, or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock issued, during the Suspension Period will be classified to have been Incurred or issued pursuant to Section 4.03(b)(iii), (3) no Subsidiaries shall be designated as Unrestricted Subsidiaries during any Suspension Period, (4) any Affiliate Transaction entered into on or after the Reversion Date pursuant to an agreement entered into during any Suspension Period shall be deemed to be permitted pursuant to Section 4.07(c)(ix), (5) any encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor to take any action described in Section 4.05(a)(i) through (iii) that becomes effective during any Suspension Period shall be deemed to be permitted pursuant to Section 4.05(a)(1). During the Suspension Period, the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries will be entitled to incur Liens to the extent provided for under Section 4.12 (including, without limitation, Permitted Liens). To the extent Section 4.12 and any Permitted Liens refer to one or more Suspended Covenants, Section 4.12 or the “Permitted Liens” definition, as applicable, shall be interpreted as though such applicable Suspended Covenant(s) continued to be applicable during the Suspension Period (but solely for purposes of Section 4.12 and the “Permitted Liens” definition and for no other purpose). Upon the occurrence of a Reversion Date, the amount of Excess Proceeds from any Asset Sales occurring on or prior to such date shall be reset at zero.
(c)
    The Senior Secured Note Guarantees of the Senior Secured Note Guarantors will be suspended during the Suspension Period. In addition, during the Suspension Period, BP I may also elect (at its discretion) to release any or all of the Collateral from the Liens securing the Senior Secured Notes and the Senior Secured Note Guarantees by sending a notice of such election to the Trustee. BP I, BP II and the Restricted Subsidiaries will be permitted, without causing a Default or Event of Default or breach of any kind under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, to honor, comply with or otherwise perform any contractual commitments or obligations entered into during a Suspension Period following a Reversion Date and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby.

(b)
    At the direction of the Issuers and without the consent of secured noteholders, the Trustee shall from time to time enter into one or more amendments to the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement or any Additional Intercreditor Agreement to: (i) cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency of any such agreement, (ii) increase the amount or types of Indebtedness covered by any such agreement that may be Incurred by BP I, BP II or a Restricted Subsidiary (including with respect to the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement or any Additional Intercreditor Agreement the addition of provisions relating to new Indebtedness ranking junior in right of payment to the Senior Secured Notes), (iii) add parties to the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement or an Additional Intercreditor Agreement, including Senior Secured Note Guarantors, or successors, including successor trustees or other Representatives, (iv) secure the Senior Secured Notes (including Additional Senior Secured Notes), First Lien Obligations or any Subordinated Indebtedness, in each case to the extent permitted to be Incurred and so secured hereunder, (v) make provision for pledges of any collateral to secure the Senior Secured Notes (including any Additional Senior Secured Notes), First Lien Obligations or any Subordinated Indebtedness, in each case to the extent permitted to be Incurred and so secured hereunder or (vi) make any other change to any such agreement that does not adversely affect the Senior Secured Notes in any material respect. The Issuers shall not otherwise direct the Trustee to enter into any amendment to the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement or any Additional Intercreditor Agreement without the consent of the holders representing a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes then outstanding, except as otherwise permitted under Article IX of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture and the Issuers may only direct the Trustee to enter into any amendment to the extent such amendment does not impose any personal obligations on the Trustee or, in the opinion of the Trustee, adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture or the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement or any Additional Intercreditor Agreement.
(c)
    Each secured noteholder, by accepting a Senior Secured Note, shall be deemed to have agreed to and accepted the terms and conditions of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement and any Additional Intercreditor Agreement (whether then entered into or entered into in the future pursuant to the provisions described herein) and the performance by the Trustee of its obligations and the exercise of its rights thereunder and in connection therewith. A copy of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement and any Additional Intercreditor Agreement shall be made available for inspection during normal business hours on any Business Day upon prior written request at the offices of the Trustee.

    the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Successor Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be greater than such ratio for BP I, BP II and the Restricted Subsidiaries immediately prior to such transaction;
(v)
    if the Successor Company is not BP I, BP II, the US Issuer I, the US Issuer II or the Luxembourg Issuer, as applicable, the Issuers and each Senior Secured Note Guarantor, unless it is the other party to the transactions described above, shall have by supplemental indenture confirmed that its obligations under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the Senior Secured Notes, and the Senior Secured Note Guarantees, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents, as applicable, shall apply to such Person’s obligations under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the Senior Secured Notes, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement, any Additional Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents and the Senior Secured Note Guarantees; and
(vi)
    the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger, amalgamation or transfer and such supplemental indentures (if any) comply with this Senior Secured Notes Indenture;
provided, however, that in giving such opinion such counsel may rely on an Officers’ Certificate as to compliance with the foregoing clauses (iii) and (iv) of this Section 5.01(a) and as to any matters of fact.
The Successor Company (if other than BP I, BP II, the US Issuer I, the US Issuer II or the Luxembourg Issuer, as applicable) will succeed to, and be substituted for, BP I, BP II, the US Issuer I, the US Issuer II or the Luxembourg Issuer, as applicable, under the applicable Senior Secured Note Guarantee (if applicable), this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement, any Additional Intercreditor Agreement and the applicable Security Documents, and in such event BP I, BP II, the US Issuer I, the US Issuer II or the Luxembourg Issuer, as applicable, will automatically be released and discharged from its obligations under the applicable Senior Secured Note Guarantee, this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement, any Additional Intercreditor Agreement and the applicable Security Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, BP II may merge with and into any Senior Secured Note Guarantor, and notwithstanding the foregoing clauses (iii) and (iv) of this Section 5.01(a), (A) any Restricted Subsidiary (other than an Issuer) may merge, consolidate or amalgamate with or transfer all or part of its properties and assets to BP I, BP II or to another Restricted Subsidiary, and (B) BP I, BP II, the US Issuer I, the US Issuer II or the Luxembourg Issuer may merge, consolidate or amalgamate with an Affiliate incorporated solely for the purpose of reincorporating BP I, BP II, the US Issuer I, the US Issuer II or the Luxembourg Issuer in a member state of (or in another member state of) the European Union that was a member state on January 1, 2004, the United States or any state or territory thereof, the District of Columbia or New Zealand or may convert into a limited liability company, so long as the amount of Indebtedness of BP I, BP II and the Restricted Subsidiaries is not increased thereby. The provisions set forth in this Article V will not apply to a sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of assets between or among BP I, BP II and the Restricted Subsidiaries.
(l)
    Subject to the provisions of Section 10.06 (which govern the release of a Senior Secured Note Guarantee upon the sale or disposition of a Restricted Subsidiary that is a Senior Secured Note Guarantor), no Senior Secured Note Guarantor (other than RGHL, BP I and BP II) will, and BP I and BP II will not permit any Senior Secured Note Guarantor (other than RGHL, BP I and BP II) to, consolidate, amalgamate or merge with or into or wind‑up into (whether or not such Senior Secured Note Guarantor is the surviving Person), or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or Substantially All of its properties or assets in one or more related transactions to, any Person unless:
(i)
    either (A) such Senior Secured Note Guarantor is the surviving Person or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation, amalgamation or merger (if other than such Senior Secured Note Guarantor) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition will have been made is a corporation, partnership or limited liability company organized or existing under the laws of any member state of the European Union that was a member state on January 1, 2004, the United States or any state or territory thereof, the District of Columbia or New Zealand (such Senior Secured Note Guarantor or such Person, as the case may be, being herein called the “
Successor Senior Secured Note Guarantor”), and the Successor Senior Secured Note Guarantor (if other than such Senior Secured Note Guarantor) expressly assumes all the obligations of such Senior Secured Note Guarantor under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement, any Additional Intercreditor Agreement and the relevant Security Documents and such Senior Secured Note Guarantor’s Senior Secured Note Guarantee pursuant to a supplemental indenture or other documents or instruments in form satisfactory to the Trustee, or (B) if such sale or disposition or consolidation, amalgamation or merger is with a Person other than BP I, BP II or any Restricted Subsidiary, such sale or disposition or consolidation, amalgamation or merger is not in violation of Section 4.06; and
(ii)
    the Successor Senior Secured Note Guarantor (if other than such Senior Secured Note Guarantor) shall have delivered or caused to be delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, amalgamation, merger or transfer and such supplemental indenture (if any) comply with this Senior Secured Notes Indenture.

77





Except as otherwise provided in this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, in a transaction to which Section 5.01(b)(i)(A) applies, the Successor Senior Secured Note Guarantor (if other than such Senior Secured Note Guarantor) will succeed to, and be substituted for, such Senior Secured Note Guarantor under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture and such Senior Secured Note Guarantor’s Senior Secured Note Guarantee, and such Senior Secured Note Guarantor will automatically be released and discharged from its obligations under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture and such Senior Secured Note Guarantor’s Senior Secured Note Guarantee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) a Senior Secured Note Guarantor may merge, amalgamate or consolidate with an Affiliate incorporated solely for the purpose of reincorporating such Senior Secured Note Guarantor in a member state of (or another member state of) the European Union that was a member state on January 1, 2004, the United States or any state or territory thereof, the District of Columbia or New Zealand, and (B) a Senior Secured Note Guarantor may merge, amalgamate or consolidate with another Senior Secured Note Guarantor, an Issuer, BP I or BP II.
In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, any Senior Secured Note Guarantor may consolidate, amalgamate or merge with or into or wind‑up into, or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or Substantially All of its properties or assets (collectively, a “Transfer”) to (x) BP I, an Issuer or any Senior Secured Note Guarantor or (y) any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Senior Secured Note Guarantor; provided, however, that at the time of each such Transfer pursuant to clause (y) the aggregate amount of all such Transfers since the Issue Date shall not exceed the greater of (x) $900.0 million and (y) 5.0% of Total Assets after giving effect to each such Transfer and including all Transfers occurring from and after the Issue Date (excluding Transfers in connection with the transactions described in the Offering Circular). Subject to the foregoing, upon a Transfer to a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Senior Secured Note Guarantor, any Collateral subject to security interests in favor of the Senior Secured Notes will be automatically released from such security interests and the Senior Secured Notes will no longer have the benefit of such Collateral.
(m)
    In the event that BP II merges with BP I or any Restricted Subsidiary of BP I, any provision in this Senior Secured Notes Indenture that is applicable to both BP I and BP II shall thereafter be applicable only to BP I.
ARTICLE VI

(h)
    BP I, BP II, an Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary fails to pay final judgments aggregating in excess of $150.0 million or its foreign currency equivalent (net of any amounts which are covered by enforceable insurance policies issued by solvent carriers), which judgments are not discharged, waived or stayed for a period of 60 days following the entry thereof;
(i)
    any Senior Secured Note Guarantee of RGHL, BP I or a Significant Subsidiary (or any Senior Secured Note Guarantee of one or more Senior Secured Note Guarantors that collectively would represent a Significant Subsidiary) ceases to be in full force and effect (except as contemplated by the terms thereof or the terms of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture or the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement) or BP I, BP II or any Senior Secured Note Guarantor that qualifies as a Significant Subsidiary (or one or more Senior Secured Note Guarantors that collectively would represent a Significant Subsidiary) denies or disaffirms its obligations under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture or any Senior Secured Note Guarantee and such Default continues for 20 days; or
(j)
     the security interest in the Collateral created under any Security Document shall, at any time, cease to be in full force and effect and constitute a valid and, to the extent applicable and required by the Reference Agreement Security Principles, perfected, lien with the priority required by this Senior Secured Notes Indenture for any reason other than the satisfaction in full of all obligations under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture and discharge of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture or in accordance with the terms of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement or any Additional Intercreditor Agreement or as provided under Section 12.06 or any security interest created under any Security Document shall be invalid or unenforceable (other than (i) any such failure to be in full force and effect and constitute a valid and, to the extent applicable and required by the Reference Agreement Security Principles, perfected, lien with the priority required by this Senior Secured Notes Indenture or any invalidity or unenforceability that would not be material to the Holders or (ii) any such loss of perfection that is due to the failure by any party other than the Issuers or the Senior Secured Note Guarantors to maintain possession of stock certificates or otherwise results from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any party other than the Issuers or the Senior Secured Note Guarantors) or RGHL, BP I, an Issuer or any Person granting Collateral the subject of any such security interest shall assert, in any pleading in any court of competent jurisdiction, that any such security interest is invalid or unenforceable and in each case (but only in the event that such failure to be in full force and effect and constitute a valid and, to the extent applicable and required by the Reference Agreement Security Principles, perfected, lien with the priority required by this Senior Secured Notes Indenture or such invalidity or unenforceability or failure to be perfected or such assertion is capable of being cured without imposing any new hardening period, in equity or at law, to which such security interest was not otherwise subject immediately prior to such failure or assertion, other than any such hardening period that is also applicable to any other

79





Lien over the relevant Collateral) such failure or such assertion shall have continued uncured for a period of (x) 30 days after written notice from the Trustee or 30% in principal amount of outstanding Senior Secured Notes of such series with respect to any Collateral of a Domestic Subsidiary of BP I (other than Collateral which is an Equity Interest of a Foreign Subsidiary) or (y) 60 days after written notice from the Trustee or 30% in principal amount of outstanding Senior Secured Notes of such series with respect to other Collateral; provided, however, that the Trustee shall have no obligation to deliver such notice unless instructed to do so by the requisite number of Holders.
The foregoing shall constitute Events of Default whatever the reason for any such Event of Default and whether it is voluntary or involuntary or is effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body.
The term “Bankruptcy Law” means any applicable Luxembourg law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, administration, examination, court protection, receivership, schemes of arrangement or similar matters, Title 11, United States Code, or any similar Federal, state or non-U.S. bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law for the relief of debtors. The term “Custodian” means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator, custodian or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law.
A Default under clause (d) of this Section 6.01 (other than a failure to purchase Senior Secured Notes) shall not constitute an Event of Default until the Trustee or the holders of 30% in principal amount of outstanding Senior Secured Notes of such series notify the Issuers of the Default and the Issuers do not cure or cause the cure of such Default within the time specified in clause (d) hereof, after receipt of such notice. Such notice must specify the Default, demand that it be remedied and state that such notice is a “Notice of Default”.
An Issuer or BP I, as applicable, shall deliver to the Trustee (i) as soon as it becomes aware of the occurrence of an Event of Default, written notice of the occurrence of such Event of Default and (ii) within 30 days after the occurrence thereof, written notice of any event which would constitute a Default under clause (c), (d), (e), (f) or (g) of Section 6.01, its status and what action BP I, BP II or any Issuer, as applicable, is taking or proposes to take in respect thereof.
SECTION 6.02.
    
Acceleration. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(f) or (g) with respect to BP I, BP II, an Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary that, directly or indirectly, owns or holds any Equity Interest of an Issuer) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the holders of at least 30% in principal amount of outstanding Senior Secured Notes by notice to the Trustee and the Issuers may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued but unpaid interest on all the Senior Secured Notes to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal and interest will be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(f) or (g) with respect to BP I, BP II, an Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary that, directly or indirectly, owns or holds any Equity Interest of an Issuer occurs, the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on all the Senior Secured Notes will become immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any holders. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes by notice to the Trustee may rescind an acceleration and its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default have been cured or waived except nonpayment of principal or interest that has become due solely because of acceleration. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto.
In the event of any Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(e), such Event of Default and all consequences thereof (excluding, however, any resulting payment default) will be annulled, waived and rescinded, automatically and without any action by the Trustee or the holders of the Senior Secured Notes, if within 20 days after such Event of Default arose the Issuers deliver an Officers’ Certificate to the Trustee stating that (x) the Indebtedness or guarantee that is the basis for such Event of Default has been discharged, paid or otherwise acquired or retired or (y) the holders thereof have rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or action (as the case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default or (z) the default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured, it being understood that in no event shall an acceleration of the principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes as described above be annulled, waived or rescinded upon the happening of any such events.
SECTION 6.03.
    
Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy at law or in equity to collect the payment of principal of or interest on the Senior Secured Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Senior Secured Notes or this Senior Secured Notes Indenture.
The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Senior Secured 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. No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. To the extent required by law, all available remedies are cumulative.
SECTION 6.04.
    
Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of outstanding Senior Secured Notes by written notice to the Trustee may waive an existing Default and its consequences except (a) a Default in the payment of the principal of or interest on a Senior Secured Note, (b) a Default arising from the failure to redeem or purchase any Senior Secured Note when required pursuant to the terms of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture or (c) a Default in respect of a provision that under

80





Section 9.02 cannot be amended without the consent of the Holders of not less than 100% of the then outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes. When a Default is waived, it is deemed cured and the Issuers, the Senior Secured Note Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored to their former positions and rights under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any consequent right.
SECTION 6.05.
    
Control by Majority. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of outstanding Senior Secured Notes are given the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Senior Secured Notes Indenture or, subject to Section 7.01, that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability. Prior to taking any action under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the Trustee will be entitled to indemnification satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.
SECTION 6.06.
    
Limitation on Suits. (m) Subject to Section 7.01, in case an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture at the request or direction of any of the holders unless such holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium (if any) or interest when due, no holder may pursue any remedy with respect to this Senior Secured Notes Indenture or the Senior Secured Notes unless:
(i)
    such Holder has previously given the Trustee notice that an Event of Default is continuing,
(ii)
    Holders of at least 30% in principal amount of the outstanding Senior Secured Notes have requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy,
(iii)
    such Holders have offered the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense,
(iv)
    the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity, and
(v)
    the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Senior Secured Notes have not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period.
SECTION 6.07.
    
Rights of the Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, but subject to the terms of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement and any Additional Intercreditor Agreement, the right of any Holder to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of the Holders of not less than 100% of the then outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes.
SECTION 6.08.
    
Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a) or (b) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuers, BP I or any other obligor on the Senior Secured Notes for the whole amount then due and owing (together with interest on overdue principal and (to the extent lawful) on any unpaid interest at the rate provided for in the Senior Secured Notes) and the amounts provided for in Section 7.07.
SECTION 6.09.
    
Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for reasonable compensation, expenses disbursements and advances of the Trustee (including counsel, accountants, experts or such other professionals as the Trustee deems necessary, advisable or appropriate)) and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuers, BP I or any Senior Secured Note Guarantor, their creditors or their property, shall be entitled to participate as a member, voting or otherwise, of any official committee of creditors appointed in such matters and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may vote on behalf of the Holders in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing similar functions, and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements

81





and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Senior Secured Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.
SECTION 6.10.
    
Priorities. Subject to the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement, if the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article VI, it shall pay out the money or property in the following order:
FIRST: to the Trustee for amounts due under Section 7.07;
SECOND: to the Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Senior Secured Notes for principal, premium, if any, and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Senior Secured Notes for principal and interest, respectively;
THIRD: to the Collateral Agent for amounts due and unpaid on Subordinated Indebtedness of the Issuers and, if such money or property has been collected from a Senior Secured Note Guarantor, to holders of Subordinated Indebtedness of such Senior Secured Note Guarantor; and
FOURTH: to the Issuers or, to the extent the Trustee collects any amount for any Senior Secured Note Guarantor, to such Senior Secured Note Guarantor.
The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to the Holders pursuant to this Section 6.10 and shall notify the Issuers of such record date. At least 15 days before such record date, the Issuers shall deliver to each Holder and the Trustee a notice that states the record date, the payment date and amount to be paid.
SECTION 6.11.
    
Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.07 or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of outstanding Senior Secured Notes.
SECTION 6.12.
    
Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. None of the Issuers, BP I or any Senior Secured Note Guarantor (to the extent it may lawfully do so) shall at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture; and the Issuers, BP I and each Senior Secured Note Guarantor (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waive all benefit or advantage of any such law, and shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.
SECTION 6.13.
    
Direction to Agents. Following the occurrence of an Event of Default or a potential Event of Default, the Trustee may, by notice to the Agents, require them to act under its direction.
ARTICLE VII
    

Trustee
SECTION 7.01.
    
Duties of Trustee. (g) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Senior Secured Notes Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs.

82





(h)
    Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:
(xiii)
    the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Senior Secured Notes Indenture and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Senior Secured Notes Indenture against the Trustee (it being agreed that the permissive right of the Trustee to do things enumerated in this Senior Secured Notes Indenture shall not be construed as a duty); and
(xiv)
    in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture. The Trustee shall be under no duty to make any investigation as to any statement contained in any such instance, but may accept the same as conclusive evidence of the truth and accuracy of such statement or the correctness of such opinions. However, in the case of certificates or opinions required by any provision hereof to be provided to it, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the truth or accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts, statements or opinions stated therein).
(i)
    The Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that:
(vii)
    this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section 7.01;
(viii)
    the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

(j)
    Every provision of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 7.01.
(k)
    The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Issuers or BP I.
(l)
    Money held by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.
SECTION 7.02.
    
Rights of Trustee. Subject to Section 7.01:

(d)
    Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on the Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel.

83





(e)
    The Trustee may act through agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent appointed with due care.
(f)
    The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers;

SECTION 7.07.
    
Compensation and Indemnity. (a) The Issuers, failing which the Senior Secured Note Guarantors, shall pay to the Trustee and each Agent from time to time compensation for their respective services as agreed in writing between the Issuers and the Trustee and each Agent from time to time and, following the occurrence of an Event of Default or a potential Event of Default, such additional fees and expenses as the Trustee deems to be appropriate. The Trustee’s and each Agent’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuers, jointly and severally, failing which the Senior Secured Note Guarantors shall reimburse the Trustee and each Agent upon request for all properly incurred out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the properly incurred compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee’s and each Agent’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts. The Issuers and each Senior Secured Note Guarantor, jointly and severally shall indemnify the Trustee and each Agent (which in each case, for purposes of this Section 7.07, shall include its officers, directors, employees, agents and counsel) against any and all loss, liability, claim, taxes, costs, damage or expense (including properly incurred attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Senior Secured Notes Indenture or Senior Secured Note Guarantee against the Issuers, BP I or a Senior Secured Note Guarantor (including this Section 7.07) and defending itself against or investigating any claim (whether (i) asserted by the Issuers, BP I, any Senior Secured Note Guarantor, any Holder or any other Person or (ii) with respect to any action taken by the Trustee under the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, any Additional Intercreditor Agreement or any other agreement referenced herein). The obligation to pay such amounts shall survive the payment in full or defeasance of the Senior Secured Notes or the removal or resignation of the Trustee or the applicable Agent. The Trustee or the applicable Agent shall notify the Issuers of any claim for which it may seek indemnity promptly upon obtaining actual knowledge thereof; provided, however, that any failure so to notify the Issuers shall not relieve the Issuers, BP I or any Senior Secured Note Guarantor of its indemnity obligations hereunder. The Issuers shall defend the claim and the indemnified party shall provide reasonable cooperation at the Issuers’ expense in the defense. Such indemnified parties may have separate counsel and the Issuers, BP I and the Senior Secured Note Guarantors, as applicable, shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. The Issuers need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by an indemnified party solely through such party’s own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.
(b)
    To secure the payment obligations of the Issuers, BP I and the other Senior Secured Note Guarantors in this Section 7.07, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Senior Secured Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee other than money or property held to pay principal of and interest on particular Senior Secured Notes.

Without prejudice to any other rights available to the Trustee under applicable law, when the Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 6.01(f) or (g) with respect to the Issuers or BP I, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under the Bankruptcy Law.
(d)
    No provision of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture shall require the Trustee or Collateral Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not assured to its satisfaction.
For the avoidance of doubt, the rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee in this Section 7.07, including its rights to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee and by each Agent (including Wilmington Trust (London) Limited as additional collateral agent).

(e)
    A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment and its accession to the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and any Additional Intercreditor Agreement to the retiring Trustee, the Collateral Agent and to the Issuers or BP I. Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture. The successor Trustee shall deliver a notice of its succession to the Holders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.07(b).
(f)
    If a successor Trustee or Agent, as applicable, does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, (i) the retiring Trustee or Agent, as applicable, or the Holders of 10% in principal amount of outstanding Senior Secured Notes may petition at the expense of the Issuers any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee or (ii) the retiring Trustee or Agent, as applicable, may appoint a successor Trustee or Agent, as applicable, at any time prior to the date on which a successor Trustee or Agent, as applicable, takes office;
provided that such appointment shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Issuers.

(h)
    Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Issuers’ or BP I’s obligations under Section 7.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee or Agent, as applicable.
SECTION 7.09.
    
Successor Trustee by Merger. If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or Substantially All of its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee.
In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Senior Secured Notes Indenture any of the Senior Secured Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Senior Secured Notes so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Senior Secured Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Senior Secured Notes either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Senior Secured Notes or in this Senior Secured Notes Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have; provided, however, that the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee or to authenticate Senior Secured Notes in the name of any predecessor Trustee shall apply only to its successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation.
SECTION 7.10.
    
Eligibility; Disqualification. This Senior Secured Notes Indenture shall at all times have a Trustee that is an entity organized and doing business under the laws of the United States or any state thereof, or a member state of the European Union or a political subdivision thereof, that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power and that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities or by the authorities of a member state of the European Union or a political subdivision thereof.

(e) The Issuers, the Senior Secured Note Guarantors, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent may amend this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the Senior Secured Notes, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement, Additional Intercreditor Agreements and the Security Documents and release any (but less than substantially all) of the Collateral with the consent of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes then outstanding (including Additional Senior Secured Notes and consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange for Senior Secured Notes) and any past default or compliance with any provisions may be waived with the consent of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes then outstanding (including Additional Senior Secured Notes and consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange for Senior Secured Notes); provided, however, that (x) if any such amendment or waiver will only affect one series of Senior Secured Notes (or less than all series of Senior Secured Notes) then outstanding under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, then only the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes of such series then outstanding (including, in each case, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for Senior Secured Notes) shall be required and (y) if any such amendment or waiver by its terms will affect a series of Senior Secured Notes in a manner different and materially adverse relative to the manner such amendment or waiver affects other series of Senior Secured Notes, then the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes of such series then outstanding (including, in each case, consent obtained in connection with a tender offer or

91





exchange offer for Senior Secured Notes) shall be required; provided further, however, that without the consent of each holder of an outstanding Senior Secured Note affected, no amendment may, among other things:
(xv)
    reduce the amount of Senior Secured Notes whose holders must consent to an amendment;
(xvi)
    reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest on any Senior Secured Note;
(xvii)
    reduce the principal of or extend the Stated Maturity of any Senior Secured Note;
(xviii)
    reduce the premium or amount payable upon the redemption of any Senior Secured Note, change the time at which any Senior Secured Note may be redeemed in accordance with Article III of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture or Sections 5 or 6 of the Senior Secured Notes;
(xix)
    make any Senior Secured Note payable in money other than that stated in such Senior Secured Note;
(xx)
    expressly subordinate the Senior Secured Notes or any Senior Secured Note Guarantee to any other Indebtedness of any Issuer, BP I or any Senior Secured Note Guarantor not otherwise permitted by this Senior Secured Notes Indenture;
(xxi)
    impair the right of any holder to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such holder’s Senior Secured Notes;
(xxii)
    make any change in Section 6.04 or the proviso at the end of the first sentence of this Section 9.02;
(xxiii)
    change the provisions of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement or the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement or any Additional Intercreditor Agreement in any manner adverse to the interests of the Holders in any material respect; or
(xxiv)
    make any change in Section 4.15 of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture or Section 7 of the Senior Secured Notes that adversely affects the rights of any Holder to receive payments of Additional Amounts pursuant to such provisions or amend the terms of the Senior Secured Notes or this Senior Secured Notes Indenture in a way that would result in the loss of an exemption from any of the Taxes described thereunder that are required to be withheld or deducted by any Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction from any payments made on the Senior Secured Note or any Senior Secured Note Guarantee by the Payors, unless RGHL or any Restricted Subsidiary agrees to pay any Additional Amounts that arise as a result;
provided that for purposes of this clause (x) a “Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction” shall include the United States.
(b)
    Without the consent of the holders of 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes then outstanding (which consents may be obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the Senior Secured Notes), no amendment or waiver may release from the Lien of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture and the Security Documents all or substantially all of the Collateral;
provided, however, that if any such amendment or waiver disproportionately adversely affects one or more series of Senior Secured Notes, such amendment or waiver shall also require the consent of the holders of 90% of the aggregate principal amount of each such adversely affected series of Senior Secured Notes (which consents may be obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for such series of the Senior Secured Notes).
It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.
After an amendment under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Issuers shall mail (or otherwise deliver in accordance with applicable DTC procedures) to the Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment. However, the failure to give such notice to all Holders entitled to receive such notice, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of the amendment under this Section 9.02.

SECTION 9.03.
    [Reserved.]
SECTION 9.04.
    
Revocation and Effect of Consents and Waivers. (a) A consent to an amendment or a waiver by a Holder of a Senior Secured Note shall bind the Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Senior Secured Note or portion of the Senior Secured Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Senior Secured Note, even if notation of the consent or waiver is not made on the Senior Secured Note. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent or waiver as to such Holder’s Senior Secured Note or portion of the Senior Secured Note if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date on which the Trustee receives an Officers’ Certificate from each Issuer certifying that the requisite principal amount of Senior Secured Notes have consented. After an amendment or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder. An amendment or waiver becomes effective upon the (i) receipt by the Issuers or the Trustee of consents by the Senior Secured Notes of the requisite principal amount of Senior Secured Notes, (ii) satisfaction of conditions to effectiveness as set forth in Section 13.03 and any indenture supplemental hereto containing such amendment or waiver and (iii) execution of such amendment or waiver (or supplemental indenture) by the Issuers and the Trustee.
(b)
    The Issuers may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to give their consent or take any other action described above or required or permitted to be taken pursuant to this Senior Secured Notes Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding clause (a) of this Section 9.04, those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent previously given or to take any such action, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 120 days after such record date.
SECTION 9.05.
    
Notation on or Exchange of Senior Secured Notes. If an amendment, supplement or waiver changes the terms of a Senior Secured Note, the Issuers may require the Holder of the Senior Secured Note to deliver it to the Trustee. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Senior Secured Note regarding the changed terms and return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Issuers or the Trustee so determine in exchange for the Senior Secured Note, the Issuers shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Senior Secured Note that reflects the changed terms. Failure to make the appropriate notation or to issue a new Senior Secured Note shall not affect the validity of such amendment, supplement or waiver.
SECTION 9.06.
    
Trustee to Sign Amendments. The Trustee shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article IX if the amendment does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may but need not sign it. In signing such amendment, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive indemnity or security satisfactory to it and shall be provided with, and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such amendment, supplement or waiver is authorized or permitted by this Senior Secured Notes Indenture and that such amendment, supplement or waiver is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuers and the Senior Secured Note Guarantors, enforceable against them in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions, and complies with the provisions hereof.
SECTION 9.07.
    
Payment for Consent. None of the Issuers nor any Affiliate of any Issuer shall, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration, whether by way of interest, fee or otherwise, to any Holder for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture or the Senior Secured Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid to all Holders that so consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement.
ARTICLE X
    

Guarantees
SECTION 10.01.
    
Guarantees. (f) Subject to the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and any Additional Intercreditor Agreement, each Senior Secured Note Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, jointly and severally, on a senior basis, to each Holder and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns (i) the full and punctual payment of principal of and interest on the Senior Secured Notes when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, and all other monetary obligations of the Issuers under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture and the Senior Secured Notes and (ii) the full and punctual performance within applicable grace periods of all other obligations of the Issuers under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture and the Senior Secured Notes (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”), subject to the limitations set forth in Section 10.08; provided, however, that in no event shall a US Controlled Foreign Subsidiary be required to guarantee the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Senior Secured Note Guarantor further agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from such Senior Secured Note

93





Guarantor and that such Senior Secured Note Guarantor will remain bound under this Article X notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Guaranteed Obligation.
(g)
    Each Senior Secured Note Guarantor waives presentation to, demand of, payment from and protest to the Issuers of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. Each Senior Secured Note Guarantor waives notice of any Default under the Senior Secured Notes or the Guaranteed Obligations. The obligations of each Senior Secured Note Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by (1) the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Issuers or any other Person (including any Senior Secured Note Guarantor) under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the Senior Secured Notes or any other agreement or otherwise; (2) any extension or renewal of any thereof; (3) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the Senior Secured Notes or any other agreement; (4) the release of any security held by any Holder or the Trustee for the Guaranteed Obligations or any of them; (5) the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations; or (6) except as set forth in Section 10.06, any change in the ownership of such Senior Secured Note Guarantor.
(h)
    Each Senior Secured Note Guarantor further agrees that its Senior Secured Note Guarantee herein constitutes a guarantee of payment, performance and compliance when due (and not a guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder or the Trustee to any security held for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations.
(i)
    [Reserved.]
(j)
    Except as expressly set forth in Article VIII and Sections 10.02, 10.06 and 10.08, the obligations of each Senior Secured Note Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Senior Secured Note Guarantor herein shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the Senior Secured Notes or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Senior Secured Note Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of such Senior Secured Note Guarantor as a matter of law or equity.
(k)
    Each Senior Secured Note Guarantor further agrees that its Senior Secured Note Guarantee herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of or interest on any Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder or the Trustee upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of any Issuer or otherwise.
(l)
    In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder or the Trustee has at law or in equity against any Senior Secured Note Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Issuers to pay the principal of or interest on any Guaranteed Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, or to perform or comply with any other Guaranteed Obligation, each Senior Secured Note Guarantor hereby promises to and shall, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Holders or the Trustee an amount equal to the sum of (A) the unpaid amount of such Guaranteed Obligations, (B) accrued and unpaid interest and premiums (if any) on such Guaranteed Obligations (but only to the extent not prohibited by law) and (C) all other monetary Guaranteed Obligations of the Issuers to the Holders and the Trustee.
(m)
    Each Senior Secured Note Guarantor agrees that, as between it, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (i) the maturity of the Guaranteed Obligations hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article VI for the purposes of such Senior Secured Note Guarantor’s Senior Secured Note Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby, and (ii) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such Guaranteed Obligations as provided in Article VI, such Guaranteed Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by such Senior Secured Note Guarantor for the purposes of this Section 10.01.
(n)
    Each Senior Secured Note Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’

94





fees and expenses), subject to the limitations set forth in Section 10.08, incurred by the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section 10.01.
SECTION 10.02.
    
Limitation on Liability. Any term or provision of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum aggregate amount of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereunder by any Senior Secured Note Guarantor shall not exceed the maximum amount that can be hereby guaranteed without rendering this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, as it relates to such Senior Secured Note Guarantor, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.
SECTION 10.03.
    
Successors and Assigns. This Article X shall be binding upon each Senior Secured Note Guarantor and its successors and shall inure to the benefit of the successors, transferees and assigns of the Trustee and the Holders and, in the event of any transfer or assignment of rights by any Holder or the Trustee, the rights and privileges conferred upon that party in this Senior Secured Notes Indenture and in the Senior Secured Notes shall automatically extend to and be vested in such transferee or assignee, all subject to the terms and conditions of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture. Each Senior Secured Note Guarantee shall be a continuing guarantee and shall, subject to Section 10.06, remain in full force and effect until the payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations.
SECTION 10.04.
    
No Waiver. Neither a failure nor a delay on the part of either the Trustee or the Holders in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Article X shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege. The rights, remedies and benefits of the Trustee and the Holders herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits which either may have under this Article X at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.
SECTION 10.05.
    
Modification. No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Article X, nor the consent to any departure by any Senior Secured Note Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Trustee, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on any Senior Secured Note Guarantor in any case shall entitle such Senior Secured Note Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.
SECTION 10.06.
    
Release of Senior Secured Note Guarantor. Subject to the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement, a Senior Secured Note Guarantee of a Senior Secured Note Guarantor will be automatically released upon (x) receipt by the Trustee of a notification from BP I that such Senior Secured Note Guarantee be released and (y) the occurrence of any of the following:
(b)
    the consummation of any transaction permitted by this Senior Secured Notes Indenture as a result of which such Senior Secured Note Guarantor ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary;
(c)
    the release or discharge of the guarantee or other obligation by such Senior Secured Note Guarantor (other than RGHL) of (x) the Senior Secured Credit Facilities or (y) such other guarantee or other obligation that resulted in the creation of such Senior Secured Note Guarantee, except, in each case, a release or discharge by or as a result of payment under such guarantee;
(d)
    BP I designating such Senior Secured Note Guarantor to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with Section 4.04 and the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary”;
(e)
    the Issuers’ exercise of their legal defeasance option or covenant defeasance option as described under Article VIII or if the Issuers’ obligations under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture are otherwise discharged in accordance with the terms of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture; or
(f)
    the transfer or sale of the equity interests of such Senior Secured Note Guarantor pursuant to an enforcement action, in accordance with the terms of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement.

95





Upon the occurrence of any event set forth by this Section 10.06, the applicable Senior Secured Note Guarantor will be required to deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that all conditions precedent provided for in this Senior Secured Notes Indenture relating to the release have been complied with.
A Senior Secured Note Guarantee of a Senior Secured Note Guarantor also will be released as provided in Section 5.01.
Upon any occurrence specified in Section 10.06, the Trustee shall, at the instruction of and at the cost of the Issuers, execute any documents reasonably requested of it to evidence such release.

SECTION 10.08.
    
Limitation on Guarantees in the Netherlands and Luxembourg. (d) Notwithstanding any provision of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture or any other Senior Secured Note Document, the obligations of any Senior Secured Note Guarantor organized in The Netherlands (a “Dutch Guarantor”) expressed to be assumed in this Senior Secured Notes Indenture shall be deemed not to be assumed by such Dutch Guarantor to the extent that such assumption would constitute unlawful financial assistance within the meaning of Article 2:98c of the Dutch Civil Code or any other applicable financial assistance rules of any relevant jurisdiction (the “Prohibitions”) and the provisions of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture and the other Senior Secured Note Documents shall be construed accordingly. For the avoidance of doubt, it is expressly acknowledged that each Dutch Guarantor will continue to guarantee all obligations expressed to be guaranteed in this Senior Secured Notes Indenture and the other Senior Secured Note Documents, to the extent that such obligations do not constitute a violation of the Prohibition.

    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture or any other Senior Secured Note Document, the Senior Secured Note Guarantee given by any Subsidiary that becomes a Senior Secured Note Guarantor after the Issue Date (an “

ARTICLE XI
    

Intercreditor Agreement
Each noteholder hereunder (a) acknowledges that it has received a copy of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and 2013 Intercreditor Agreement, (b) agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement and (c) authorizes and instructs the Collateral Agent to enter into the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement as Collateral Agent and on behalf of such secured noteholder.
ARTICLE XII
    

Collateral and Security Documents
SECTION 12.01.
    
Collateral and Security Documents. (c) To secure the full and punctual payment when due and the full and punctual performance of the Obligations of the parties hereto, BP I, the Issuers, the Senior Secured Note Guarantors and the Collateral Agent shall, on the Issue Date, enter into certain Security Documents and may enter into additional Security Documents. In the event that security interests in any of the Collateral are not created as of the Issue Date, the Issuers, BP II and the Senior Secured Note Guarantors shall use commercially reasonable efforts to implement security arrangements with respect to such Collateral as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Issue Date (or on such later date as may be permitted by the Applicable Representative in its sole discretion). All security interests in the Collateral for the Senior Secured Notes and the Senior Secured Note Guarantees will be granted and implemented subject to the Reference Agreement Security Principles.
(xi)
    Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as any series of Issuers’ Existing Secured Debt remains outstanding and registered under the Securities Act, the Capital Stock and securities of any Restricted Subsidiary will constitute Collateral with respect to the Senior Secured Notes only to the extent that the securing of any series of the Issuers’ Existing Secured Debt with such Capital Stock and securities would not require such Restricted Subsidiary to file separate financial statements with the SEC under Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act;
provided, however, that the foregoing limitation will not apply to shares of Capital Stock of BP I at any time. In the event that Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act requires or is amended, modified or interpreted by the SEC to require (or is replaced with another rule or regulation that would require) the filing with the SEC of separate financial statements of any Restricted Subsidiary (other than BP I) due to the fact that such Restricted Subsidiary’s Capital Stock and securities secure any series of Issuers’ Existing Secured Debt, then the Capital Stock and securities of such Restricted Subsidiary shall automatically be deemed not to be part of the Collateral (but only to the extent necessary for such Restricted Subsidiary to not be subject to such requirement to provide separate financial statements) and such excluded portion of the Capital Stock and securities is referred to as the “Excluded Stock Collateral”. In such event, the Security Documents may be amended, modified or supplemented, without the consent of any Holder, to the extent necessary to release the security interests on the Excluded Stock Collateral.
(xii)
    In the event that Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act is amended, modified or interpreted by the SEC to permit (or is replaced with another rule or regulation that would permit) any Restricted Subsidiary’s Excluded Stock Collateral to secure each series of Issuers’ Existing Secured Debt in excess of the amount then pledged without the filing with the SEC of separate financial statements of such Restricted Subsidiary, then the Capital Stock and securities of such Restricted Subsidiary shall automatically be deemed to be a part of the Collateral (but only to the extent possible without such Restricted Subsidiary becoming subject to any such filing requirement). In such event, the Security Documents may be amended or modified, without the consent of any Holder, to the extent necessary to subject to the Liens under the Security Documents such additional Capital Stock and securities.
(d)
    By accepting a Senior Secured Note, each Holder thereof will be deemed to have: (1) irrevocably

97





appointed the Collateral Agent to act as its agent and trustee under the Security Documents and the other relevant documents to which it is a party; and (2) irrevocably authorized the Collateral Agent to (i) perform the duties and exercise the rights, powers and discretions that are specifically given to it under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, any Additional Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents or other documents to which it is a party, together with any other incidental rights, power and discretions; and (ii) execute each document expressed to be executed by the Collateral Agent on its behalf.
(e)
    The Trustee shall become party to the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement by executing a joinder to the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and shall acknowledge the designation by the Issuers of the Obligations as “Additional Secured Obligations” under the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement on or prior to the Issue Date, and by accepting a Senior Secured Note, each Holder thereof shall be deemed to have irrevocably authorized the Trustee to perform the duties and exercise the rights, powers and discretions that are specifically given to it under the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement.
SECTION 12.02.
    
Recording; Certificates and Opinions. In accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 4.10, the Issuers shall do or cause to be done, at their own expense, all acts and things reasonably required, or which the Trustee or the Collateral Agent from time to time may request to assure and confirm that the Trustee and/or Collateral Agent holds, for the benefit of the Holders, duly created, enforceable and perfected Liens as contemplated by this Senior Secured Notes Indenture and the Security Documents, with the priority contemplated by this Senior Secured Notes Indenture and the Security Documents, so as to render the same available for the security and benefit of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture and the Senior Secured Notes, according to the intent and purposes therein expressed.
SECTION 12.03.
    
Suits To Protect the Collateral. Subject to the provisions of the Security Documents, this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement and the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement (or, if applicable, any Additional Intercreditor Agreement), the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall have power to institute and to maintain such suits and proceedings as either of them may deem expedient to prevent any impairment of the Collateral by any acts which may be unlawful or in violation of any of the Security Documents, this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement or the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement (or, if applicable, any Additional Intercreditor Agreement), and such suits and proceedings as the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, in their sole discretion, may deem expedient to preserve or protect their interests and the interests of the Holders, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent in the Collateral (including power to institute and maintain suits or proceedings to restrain the enforcement of or compliance with any legislative or other governmental enactment, rule or order that may be unconstitutional, ultra vires or otherwise invalid if the enforcement of, or compliance with, such enactment, rule or order would impair the lien on the Collateral or be prejudicial to the interests of the Holders, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent).
SECTION 12.04.
    
Other Agreements. This Senior Secured Notes Indenture and the Security Documents shall be subject to the Reference Agreement Security Principles, the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement and the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement (and any Additional Intercreditor Agreement).
SECTION 12.05.
    
Determinations Relating to Collateral. Subject to the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, (and, if applicable, any Additional Intercreditor Agreement), in the event (i) the Trustee shall receive any written request from the Issuers, RGHL, BP I or the Collateral Agent under any Security Document for consent or approval with respect to any matter or thing relating to any Collateral or the Issuers’ obligations with respect thereto or (ii) there shall be due to or from the Trustee or the Collateral Agent under the provisions of any Security Document any material performance or the delivery of any material instrument or (iii) the Trustee shall become aware of any material nonperformance by the Issuers of any covenant or any material breach of any representation or warranty of the Issuers set forth in any Security Document, then, in each such event, the Trustee shall be entitled to hire, at the sole reasonable cost and expense of the Issuers, experts, consultants, agents and attorneys to advise the Trustee on the manner in which the Trustee should respond, or direct the Collateral Agent to respond to such request or render any requested performance or response to such nonperformance or breach. The Trustee shall be fully protected in accordance with Article VII hereof in the taking (or not taking) of any action recommended or approved by any such expert, consultant, agent or attorney and by indemnification or other security provided in accordance with Section 6.05 and other sections of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture if such action is agreed to by Holders of a majority in principal amount of outstanding Senior Secured Notes pursuant to Section 6.05.
SECTION 12.06.
    
Release of Collateral. (q) Subject to the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement, the Security Interests in the Collateral for the benefit of the Senior Secured Notes shall be released:
(i)
    upon payment in full of principal, interest and all other Obligations on the Senior Secured Notes issued under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture or discharge or defeasance thereof;

98





(ii)
    to the extent a Senior Secured Note Guarantor would be and is so released pursuant Section 10.06(b);

(vii)
    by the Trustee or Collateral Agent, acting on the instructions of the Applicable Representative in accordance with the terms of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement (other than releases of all or substantially all of the Collateral); or
(viii)
    upon a legal defeasance or covenant defeasance under Section 8.01(a).
(r)
    In order to secure new Indebtedness (where such Indebtedness is permitted under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture and the Lien securing such Indebtedness is a Permitted Lien that is entitled to rank equal with, in priority to or behind the security interests on the Collateral, as applicable), on the date on which such new Indebtedness is incurred, and subject to no Default having occurred and being continuing, the Trustee or Collateral Agent for the Senior Secured Notes, as applicable, is authorized by the Trustee and the Holders to, and shall, at the request of the Issuers or RGHL, release the security interests in the Collateral and will, simultaneously with the grant of Liens in respect of the new Indebtedness, retake such security interests in the Collateral;
provided, however, that all holders of Liens on behalf of other Indebtedness or obligations secured by such Collateral concurrently release and (if applicable) retake the security interests in the same manner; provided further, however, that following such release and retaking the security interests in the Collateral are not subject to any new hardening period or limitation (excluding any such hardening period or limitation that existed prior to such release and retaking) which is not also applicable to the Lien granted in favor of the new Indebtedness and any such other Indebtedness or obligations (it being understood that the new Indebtedness and such other Indebtedness and obligations may be subject to longer or more onerous hardening periods or limitations) or the Trustee shall have received a solvency opinion, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, from an Independent Financial Advisor satisfactory to the Trustee confirming the solvency of BP I and its respective Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, after giving effect to any transactions related to such release and retaking.
(s)
    [Reserved].
(t)
    Upon certification by the Issuers, each of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall execute all documents reasonably requested of it to effectuate any release in accordance with these provisions, subject to customary protections and indemnifications. The Collateral Agent or the Trustee, as applicable, at the instruction of and at the cost of the Issuers or the Applicable Representative (as applicable), will agree to any release of the Liens on the Collateral created by the Security Documents that is in accordance with this Senior Secured Notes Indenture and the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and 2013 Intercreditor Agreement without requiring any consent of the Holders, in reliance upon an Opinion of Counsel or Officers’ Certificate to that effect delivered by the Issuers.
SECTION 12.07.
    
Notices. The Issuers and the Collateral Agent shall cause any notices delivered by such parties pursuant to the Security Documents to be delivered to the Trustee concurrently.
SECTION 12.08.
    
Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent’s rights and obligations shall be governed by the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, any Additional Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents.

SECTION 12.09.
    
Quebec Collateral Agent. Subject to the terms of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the Trustee acting for and on behalf of the Secured Parties hereby designates and appoints The Bank of New York Mellon, in its capacity as collateral agent under the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement:
(b)
    as the person holding the power of attorney (
fondé de pouvoir) of the Secured Parties as contemplated under Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Québec, to enter into, to take and to hold on behalf of and for the benefit of the Secured Parties, any deed of hypothec (“Deed of Hypothec”) granted to secure the obligations of the relevant Obligor under the Bond (as defined below) executed by such Obligor under the laws of the Province of Québec and creating a charge over the Collateral located in such Province and to exercise such powers and duties which are conferred upon The Bank of New York Mellon under such deed; and
(c)
    as agent, mandatary, custodian and depositary for and on behalf of the Secured Parties (i) to hold and to be the sole registered holder of any bond (“
Bond”) issued by an Obligor under the Deed of Hypothec, the whole notwithstanding Section 32 of the Act respecting the special powers of legal persons (Québec) or any other applicable law, and (ii) to enter into, to take and to hold on behalf of, and for the benefit of the Secured Parties, any bond pledge agreement (“Pledge”) to be executed by such Obligor under the laws of the Province of Québec with respect to such Bond.
Subject to the terms of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, each Secured Party will be entitled to the benefits of any Collateral charged under the Deed of Hypothec and the Pledge and will participate in the proceeds of realization of any such Collateral, the whole in accordance with the terms thereof. The Bank of New York Mellon, in such aforesaid capacities shall (x) have the sole and exclusive right and authority to exercise, except as may be otherwise specifically restricted by the terms of the Indenture or the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, all rights and remedies given to the Collateral Agent with respect to the Collateral under the Deed of Hypothec and Pledge, applicable law or otherwise, and (y) benefit from and be subject to all provisions thereof, in the Indenture and the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement with respect to the Collateral Agent mutatis mutandis, including, without limitation, all such provisions with respect to the liability or responsibility to and indemnification by the Secured Parties. Any Person who becomes a Secured Party, and each Holder, by becoming the holder of a Senior Secured Note, shall be deemed to have consented to, ratified and confirmed the appointment of The Bank of New York Mellon as the person holding the power of attorney (fondé de pouvoir) and as the agent, mandatary, custodian and depositary as aforesaid and to have ratified thereupon all actions taken by The Bank of New York Mellon in such capacities. In accordance with the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, The Bank of New York Mellon, in such capacities, shall be entitled to delegate from time to time any of its powers or duties under the Deed of Hypothec and the Pledge to any Person and on such terms and conditions as it may determine from time to time.

(e)
    a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of such individual, such covenant or condition has been complied with;
provided, however, that with respect to matters of fact an Opinion of Counsel may rely on an Officers’ Certificate or certificates of public officials.
SECTION 13.05.
    
When Senior Secured Notes Disregarded. In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Senior Secured Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Senior Secured Notes owned by the Issuers or BP II, any Senior Secured Note Guarantor or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Issuers, BP II or any Senior Secured Note Guarantor shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding, except that, for the purpose of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Senior Secured Notes which the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Subject to the foregoing, only Senior Secured Notes outstanding at the time shall be considered in any such determination.
SECTION 13.06.
    
Rules by Trustee, Paying Agent and Registrar. The Trustee may make reasonable rules for action by or a meeting of the Holders. The Registrar and a Paying Agent may make reasonable rules for their functions.
SECTION 13.07.
    [Reserved.]
SECTION 13.08.
    
GOVERNING LAW. THIS SENIOR SECURED NOTES INDENTURE AND THE SENIOR SECURED NOTES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW. FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, ARTICLES 86 TO 94-8 OF THE LUXEMBOURG LAW OF AUGUST 10, 1915 ON COMMERCIAL COMPANIES SHALL NOT BE APPLICABLE IN RESPECT OF THE SENIOR SECURED NOTES AND THIS SENIOR SECURED NOTES INDENTURE. THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY AGREE TO WAIVE ANY RIGHT THEY MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY.
SECTION 13.09.
    
Consent to Jurisdiction and Service. Each of BP I, BP II, the Issuers and the Senior Secured Note Guarantors irrevocably and unconditionally: (a) submit itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Senior Secured Notes Indenture to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York, sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York, appellate courts from any thereof and courts of its own corporate domicile, with respect to actions brought against it as defendant; (b) consent that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waive any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same; (c) designate and appoint Reynolds Group Holdings Inc., with offices at 1900 West Field Court, Lake Forest, IL 60045 (or its successors), as its authorized agents upon which process may be served in any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Senior Secured Notes Indenture or the transactions contemplated hereby that may be instituted in any Federal or state court in the State of New York (and each of them accepts such appointments); and (d) agree that service of any process, summons, notice or document by US registered mail addressed to the US Issuer II, with written notice of said service to such Person at the address of the US Issuer II set forth in this Senior Secured Notes Indenture shall be effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court.

Note Guarantor, will have any liability for any obligations of the Issuers under the Senior Secured Notes, the Senior Secured Note Guarantees, this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, any supplemental indentures hereto, or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation; provided, however, the foregoing shall not in any manner affect the liability of a Senior Secured Note Guarantor with respect to its Senior Secured Note Guarantee. Each holder of Senior Secured Notes by accepting a Senior Secured Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Senior Secured Notes. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws.
SECTION 13.11.
    
Successors. All agreements of the Issuers, BP I, BP II and each Senior Secured Note Guarantor in this Senior Secured Notes Indenture and the Senior Secured Notes shall bind its successors.

SECTION 13.13.
    
Table of Contents; Headings. The table of contents, cross-reference sheet and headings of the Articles and Sections of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not intended to be considered a part hereof and shall not modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.
SECTION 13.14.
    
Senior Secured Notes Indenture Controls. If and to the extent that any provision of the Senior Secured Notes limits, qualifies or conflicts with a provision of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, such provision of this Senior Secured Notes Indenture shall control.
SECTION 13.15.
    
Severability. In case any provision in this Senior Secured Notes Indenture shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability.
SECTION 13.16.
    
Agreed Tax Treatment. The Issuers agree, and by acquiring an interest in the Senior Secured Notes each beneficial owner of a Senior Secured Note agrees, to treat for U.S. federal income tax purposes (i) the Senior Secured Notes as debt of the sole owner of the US Issuer I, and (ii) interest payments on the Senior Secured Notes as U.S. source interest; provided, however, that this agreement shall cease to apply with respect to any series of Senior Secured Notes if the Issuers (a) determine, after taking action that is permissible under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, that the aforementioned allocation of debt and interest payments is no longer accurate with respect to such series as a result of changed circumstances, and (b) post on RGHL’s website, or otherwise provide in accordance with Section 4.02 a notice that this agreement shall cease to apply with respect to such series. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Issuer or any other Payor may withhold from any interest payment made on any Senior Secured Note to or for the benefit of any person who is not a “United States person,” as such term is defined for U.S. federal income tax purposes, U.S. federal withholding tax, and pay such withheld amounts to the Internal Revenue Service, unless such person provides documentation to such Issuer or other Payor such that an exemption from US federal withholding tax would apply to such payment if interest on such Senior Secured Note were treated as income from sources within the U.S. for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

The Issuers may appoint and change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice.

4.    Indenture
The Issuers issued the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes under an indenture dated as of June 27, 2016 (the “Senior Secured Notes Indenture”), among the Issuers, certain Senior Secured Note Guarantors party thereto, the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, the Principal Paying Agent, the Transfer Agent, the Registrar, the Calculation Agent and the Additional Collateral Agent. The terms of the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes include those stated in the Senior Secured Notes Indenture. Terms defined in the Senior Secured Notes Indenture and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Senior Secured Notes Indenture applicable to the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes. The Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes are subject to all terms and provisions of the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, and the Holders (as defined in the Senior Secured Notes Indenture) are referred to the Senior Secured Notes Indenture for a statement of such terms and provisions.
The Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes are senior secured obligations of the Issuers. The Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes include the Original Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes and any Additional Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes. The Original Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes, the Original Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes, any Additional Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes and any Additional Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes are, subject to certain exceptions described in the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, treated as a single class of securities under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture. The Senior Secured Notes Indenture imposes certain limitations on the ability of the Issuers, BP I, BP II and the Restricted Subsidiaries to, among other things, make certain Investments and other Restricted Payments, pay dividends and other distributions, incur Indebtedness, enter into consensual restrictions upon the payment of certain dividends and distributions by such Restricted Subsidiaries, enter into or permit certain transactions with Affiliates, create or incur Liens and make Asset Sales. The Senior Secured Notes Indenture also

A-6





imposes limitations on the ability of the Issuers and the Senior Secured Note Guarantors to consolidate or merge with or into any other Person or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of its property. The Senior Secured Notes Indenture also imposes limitations on the ability of the Issuers to undertake certain activities.
To the extent any provision of the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes conflicts with the express provisions of the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the provisions of the Senior Secured Notes Indenture shall govern and be controlling.
5.    Optional Redemption
Except as set forth in this Section 5, Section 6 and Section 10 below, the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes shall not be redeemable at the option of the Issuers prior to July 15, 2019. Thereafter, the Issuers may redeem the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes at their option, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice mailed by first‑class mail to each holder’s registered address (or otherwise delivered in accordance with applicable DTC procedures), at the following redemption prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount), plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), if redeemed during the 12-month period commencing on July 15 of the years set forth below. Without limiting the Issuers’ obligations under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the Issuers may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and the performance of the Issuers’ obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.

In addition, at any time and from time to time prior to July 15, 2019, the Issuers may redeem the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes at their option, in whole or in part, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice mailed by first‑class mail to each holder’s registered address (or otherwise delivered in accordance with applicable DTC procedures), at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes redeemed plus the Fixed Rate Applicable Premium (as calculated by the Issuers or on behalf of the Issuers by such person as the Issuers shall designate) as of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, the applicable redemption date (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date). Without limiting the Issuers’ obligations under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the Issuers may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and the performance of the Issuers’ obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time and from time to time prior to July 15, 2019, the Issuers may at their option redeem in the aggregate up to 40% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of any Additional Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes) with the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings (1) by BP I or (2) any direct or indirect parent of BP I, in each case to the extent the net cash proceeds thereof are contributed to the common equity capital of BP I or any of its Subsidiaries or used to purchase Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) of any such entity from it, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount thereof) of 105.125%, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date); provided, however, that at least 50% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of any Additional Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes) remain outstanding after each such redemption; provided further, however, that such redemption shall occur within 180 days after the date on which any such Equity Offering is consummated upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice mailed to each holder of Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes being redeemed and otherwise in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Senior Secured Notes Indenture.
Additionally, on or prior to July 15, 2019, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice mailed by first-class mail to each holder’s registered address (or otherwise delivered in accordance with applicable DTC procedures), during each twelve-month period commencing on the Issue Date, the Issuers will be entitled at their option to redeem up to 10% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes (including any Additional Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes) issued under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture at a redemption price equal to 103.000% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest thereon, if any, to the redemption date, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with any tender offer for the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes, if Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of outstanding Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes validly tender and do not withdraw such Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes in such tender offer and the Issuers, or any third party making such tender offer in lieu of the Issuers, purchases all of the Notes of such series validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Issuers or

A-7





such third party will have the right upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following such purchase date, to redeem (with respect to the Issuers) or purchase (with respect to a third party) all Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a price in cash equal to the greater of (i) the price offered to each other Holder in such tender offer plus, to the extent not included in the tender offer payment, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon, to, but excluding, the redemption date and (ii) 100% of the principal amount of such Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes plus accrued interest to, but excluding, the redemption date, in each case, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date falling on or prior to the redemption date or purchase date.
Any notice of any redemption may, at the Issuers’ discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, the completion of an Equity Offering, a Change of Control, a financing or any other transaction or event. In addition, if such redemption or notice is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice may state that, in the Issuers’ discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Issuers in their 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, or, in the Issuers’ sole determination, may not be, satisfied (or waived by the Issuers in their sole discretion) by the redemption date, or by the redemption date so delayed. Without limiting the Issuers’ obligations under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the Issuers may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and the performance of the Issuers’ obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.
6.    Redemption for Taxation Reasons
The Issuers may redeem the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes, at their option, in whole, but not in part, at any time upon giving not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice (which notice will be irrevocable) to the secured noteholders mailed by first‑class mail to each holder’s registered address (or otherwise delivered in accordance with applicable DTC procedures) at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date fixed for redemption (a “Tax Redemption Date”) (subject to the right of secured noteholders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date) and all Additional Amounts (as defined in Section 7 below), if any, then due or that will become due on the Tax Redemption Date as a result of the redemption or otherwise, if any, if the Issuers determine in good faith that, as a result of:
(1) any change in, or amendment to, the law or treaties (or any regulations, protocols or rulings promulgated thereunder) of a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (as defined in Section 7 below) affecting taxation; or
(2) any change in official position regarding the application, administration or interpretation of such laws, treaties, protocols, regulations or rulings (including a holding, judgment or order by a government agency or court of competent jurisdiction) (each of the foregoing in clauses (1) and (2), a “Change in Tax Law”),
any Payor (as defined in Section 7 below), with respect to the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes or a Senior Secured Note Guarantee is, or on the next date on which any amount would be payable in respect of the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes would be, required to pay any Additional Amounts, and such obligation cannot be avoided by taking reasonable measures available to such Payor (including the appointment of a new Paying Agent or, where such payment would be reasonable, the payment through another Payor); provided, however, that no Payor shall be required to take any measures that in the Issuers’ good faith determination would result in the imposition on such person of any legal or regulatory burden or the incurrence by such person of additional costs, or would otherwise result in any adverse consequences to such person.
In the case of any Payor, the Change in Tax Law must be announced or become effective on or after the date of the Offering Circular. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such notice of redemption will be given earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Payor would be obliged to make such payment of Additional Amounts. Prior to the publication, mailing or delivery of any notice of redemption of the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes pursuant to the foregoing, the Issuers will deliver to the Trustee (a) an Officers’ Certificate stating that they are entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to their right so to redeem have been satisfied and (b) an opinion of an independent tax counsel of recognized standing to the effect that the Payor would be obligated to pay Additional Amounts as a result of a Change in Tax Law. The Trustee will accept such Officers’ Certificate and opinion as sufficient evidence of the satisfaction of the conditions precedent described above, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on the secured noteholders.
Subject to the terms of the applicable redemption notice, Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes called for redemption become due on the date fixed for redemption. On and after the redemption date, interest ceases to accrue on Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes or portions of them called for redemption.
The foregoing provisions will apply mutatis mutandis to the laws and official positions of any jurisdiction in which any successor to a Payor is organized or otherwise considered to be a resident for tax purposes or any political subdivision or taxing authority or agency thereof or therein. The foregoing provisions will survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of the Senior Secured Notes Indenture.

7.    Withholding Taxes
All payments made by any Issuer or any Senior Secured Note Guarantor or any successor in interest to any of the foregoing (each, a “Payor”) on or with respect to the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes or any Senior Secured Note Guarantee will be made without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any Taxes unless such withholding or deduction is required by law or FATCA; provided, however, that a Payor, in any case, may withhold from any interest payment made on the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes to or for the benefit of any person who is not a “United States person,” as such term is defined for U.S. federal income tax purposes, U.S. federal withholding tax, and pay such withheld amounts to the Internal Revenue Service, unless such person provides documentation to such Payor such that an exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax would apply to such payment if interest on the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes were treated as income from sources within the U.S. for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If any deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any Taxes imposed or levied by or on behalf of:
(1) any jurisdiction (other than the United States or any political subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein having power to tax) from or through which payment on the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes or any Senior Secured Note Guarantee is made by such Payor, or any political subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein having the power to tax; or
(2) any other jurisdiction (other than the United States or any political subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein having the power to tax) in which a Payor that actually makes a payment on the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes or its Senior Secured Note Guarantee is organized or otherwise considered to be a resident for tax purposes, or any political subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein having the power to tax,
(each of clause (1) and (2), a “Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction”), will at any time be required from any payments made by a Payor with respect to the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes or any Senior Secured Note Guarantee, including payments of principal, redemption price, interest or premium, if any, the Payor will pay (together with such payments) such additional amounts (the “Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary in order that the net amounts received in respect of such payments by the secured noteholders or the Trustee, as the case may be, after such withholding or deduction (including any such deduction or withholding from such Additional Amounts), will not be less than the amounts that would have been received in respect of such payments on the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes or the Senior Secured Note Guarantees in the absence of such withholding or deduction; provided, however, that no such Additional Amounts will be payable for or on account of:
(1) any Taxes that would not have been so imposed or levied but for the existence of any present or former connection between the relevant secured noteholder (or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder of, or possessor of power over the relevant secured noteholder, if such secured noteholder is an estate, nominee, trust, partnership, limited liability company or corporation) and the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (including 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) but excluding, in each case, any connection arising solely from the acquisition, ownership or holding of such Fixed Rate Senior Secured Note, the receipt of any payment in respect thereof or the perfection or enforcement of any security interest related to the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes;
(2) any Taxes that would not have been so imposed or levied if the holder of the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Note had complied with a reasonable request in writing of the Payor (such request being made at a time that would enable such holder acting reasonably to comply with that request) to make a declaration of nonresidence or any other claim or filing or satisfy any certification, information or reporting requirement for exemption from, or reduction in the rate of, withholding to which it is entitled (provided, however, that such declaration of nonresidence or other claim, filing or requirement is required by the applicable law, treaty, regulation or administrative practice of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction as a precondition to exemption from the requirement to deduct or withhold all or a part of any such Taxes);
(3) any Taxes that are payable otherwise than by withholding from a payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest under the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes or any Senior Secured Note Guarantee;
(4) any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, excise, transfer, personal property or similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge;
(5) [reserved];
(6) except in the case of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Payor, any Taxes imposed in connection with a Fixed Rate Senior Secured Note presented for payment by or on behalf of a secured noteholder or beneficial owner who would have been able to avoid such Tax by presenting the relevant Fixed Rate Senior Secured Note to, or otherwise accepting payment from, another paying agent in a member state of the European Union;

A-9





(7) any Taxes arising under FATCA; or
(8) any combination of the above.
Such Additional Amounts will also not be payable (x) if the payment could have been made without such deduction or withholding if the beneficiary of the payment had presented the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Note for payment (where presentation is required) within 30 days after the relevant payment was first made available for payment to the secured noteholder or (y) where, had the beneficial owner of the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Note been the holder of the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Note, such beneficial owner would not have been entitled to payment of Additional Amounts by reason of any of clauses (1) to (8) inclusive above.
The Payor will (i) make any required withholding or deduction and (ii) remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing authority of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction in accordance with applicable law. Upon request, the Payor will use all reasonable efforts to obtain certified copies of tax receipts evidencing the payment of any Taxes so deducted or withheld from each relevant taxing authority of each Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction imposing such Taxes and will provide such certified copies to the Trustee. If, notwithstanding the efforts of such Payor to obtain such receipts, the same are not obtainable, such Payor will provide the Trustee with other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Holder.
If any Payor will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts under or with respect to any payment made on the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes, at least 30 days prior to the date of such payment, the Payor will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating the fact that Additional Amounts will be payable and the amount so payable and such other information necessary to enable the Paying Agent to pay Additional Amounts to secured noteholders on the relevant payment date (unless such obligation to pay Additional Amounts arises less than 45 days prior to the relevant payment date, in which case the Payor shall deliver such Officers’ Certificate and such other information as promptly as practicable after the date that is 30 days prior to the payment date, but no less than five (5) Business Days prior thereto, and otherwise in accordance with the requirements of DTC).
Wherever in the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes, or any Senior Secured Note Guarantee there is mentioned, in any context:
(1) the payment of principal,
(2) redemption prices or purchase prices in connection with a redemption or purchase of Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes,
(3) interest, or
(4) any other amount payable on or with respect to any of the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes or any Senior Secured Note Guarantee,
such reference shall be deemed to include payment of Additional Amounts as described under this Section 7 to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof.
The Payor will pay any present or future stamp, court or documentary Taxes, or any other excise, property or similar Taxes, charges or levies that arise in any jurisdiction from the execution, delivery, registration or enforcement of any Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes, the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, or any other document or instrument in relation thereto (other than a transfer of the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes) excluding any such Taxes, charges or similar levies imposed by any jurisdiction that is not a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, and the Payor agrees to indemnify the secured noteholders and the Trustee for any such Taxes paid by such secured noteholders. The foregoing obligations will survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of the Senior Secured Notes Indenture and will apply mutatis mutandis to any jurisdiction in which any successor to a Payor is organized or otherwise considered to be a resident for tax purposes or any political subdivision or taxing authority or agency thereof or therein.
8.     Sinking Fund
The Issuers are not required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes.
9.    Notice of Redemption
Notice of redemption shall be mailed by first-class mail (or otherwise delivered in accordance with applicable DTC procedures) upon not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days’ prior notice to each Holder’s registered address. Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes in denominations of $2,000 or less may be redeemed in whole but not in part. The Trustee may select for redemption portions of the principal of Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes that have denominations larger than $2,000. Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes and portions thereof selected by the Trustee shall be in principal amounts of $2,000 or a whole multiple of

A-10





$1,000 in excess thereof, except that if all of the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed, the entire outstanding amount of Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes held by such Holder, even if not in a multiple of $1,000 shall be redeemed. If money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued and unpaid interest and premiums (if any) on all Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the redemption date is deposited with a Paying Agent on or before the redemption date and certain other conditions are satisfied, on and after such date interest ceases to accrue on such Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes (or such portions thereof) called for redemption.
10.
Repurchase of Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes at the Option of the Holders upon Change of Control and Asset Sales
Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each Holder will have the right, subject to certain conditions specified in the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, to require the Issuers to repurchase all or any part of such Holder’s Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and premiums, if any, to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of the Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), as provided in, and subject to the terms of, the Senior Secured Notes Indenture.
If holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Senior Secured Notes validly tender and do not withdraw such Senior Secured Notes in a Change of Control Offer and the Issuers, or any third party making a Change of Control Offer in lieu of the Issuers, purchase all of the Senior Secured Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Issuers or such third party will have the right, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following such purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, to redeem (with respect to the Issuers) or purchase (with respect to third parties) all Senior Secured Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the date of redemption or purchase.
In accordance with Section 4.06 of the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the Issuers shall be required to offer to purchase Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes upon the occurrence of certain events in connection with certain Asset Sales.
11.    Guarantees
From and after the Issue Date, each of the Senior Secured Note Guarantors will jointly and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantee on a senior basis to the extent set forth in the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement and any Additional Intercreditor Agreement (i) the full and punctual payment when due of all obligations of the Issuers under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture and this Fixed Rate Senior Secured Note and (ii) the full and punctual performance within applicable grace periods of all other obligations of the Issuers under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture and this Fixed Rate Senior Secured Note.
12.    Security
The Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes and the Senior Secured Note Guarantees will, with certain exceptions, have the benefit of Liens in the Collateral, which will consist of first priority security interests shared with the other First Lien Obligations, including the Issuers’ Existing Secured Debt (subject to Permitted Liens, which may rank ahead of the first priority security interests for the benefit of the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes, and except as otherwise set forth in the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement and any Additional Intercreditor Agreement), in the Collateral; provided, however, that in no event shall more than 65% of the total outstanding voting Equity Interests, or any of the assets, of any US Controlled Foreign Subsidiary be required to be pledged. In addition, as set forth in Section 12.01(a) of the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, for so long as any series of Issuers’ Existing Secured Debt remains outstanding and registered under the Securities Act, the capital Stock and securities of any Restricted Subsidiary will constitute Collateral with respect to the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes only to the extent that the securing of any series of the Issuers’ Existing Secured Debt with such capital stock and securities would not require such Restricted Subsidiary to file separate financial statements with the SEC under Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X, except that the limitations on stock collateral set forth in this sentence shall not apply to shares of Capital Stock of BP I at any time.
13.    Denominations; Transfer; Exchange

14.    Persons Deemed Owners
The registered Holder of this Fixed Rate Senior Secured Note shall be treated as the owner of it for all purposes.
15.     Unclaimed Money
If money for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee and a Paying Agent shall pay the money back to the Issuers at its written request unless an abandoned property law designates another Person. After any such payment, the Holders entitled to the money must look to the Issuers for payment as general creditors and the Trustee and a Paying Agent shall have no further liability with respect to such monies.
16.    Discharge and Defeasance
Subject to certain conditions, the Issuers at any time may terminate some of or all their obligations under the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes and the Senior Secured Notes Indenture if the Issuers, among other things, deposit with the Trustee money, US Government Obligations, or a combination thereof, for the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes to redemption or maturity, as the case may be.

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default related to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization with respect to BP I, BP II, an Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary that, directly or indirectly, owns or holds any Equity Interest of an Issuer) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the holders of at least 30% in principal amount of outstanding Senior Secured Notes by notice to the Trustee and the Issuers may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued but unpaid interest on all the Senior Secured Notes to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal and interest will be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default relating to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization with respect to BP I, BP II, an Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary that, directly or indirectly, owns or holds any Equity Interest of an Issuer occurs, the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on all the Senior Secured Notes will become immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any holders. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes by notice to the Trustee may rescind an acceleration and its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default have been cured or waived except nonpayment of principal or interest that has become due solely because of acceleration. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto.
Subject to provisions of the Senior Secured Notes Indenture relating to the duties of the Trustee, in case an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture at the request or direction of any of the holders unless such holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium (if any) or interest when due, no holder may pursue any remedy with respect to the Senior Secured Notes Indenture or the Senior Secured Notes unless (i) such Holder has previously given the Trustee notice that an Event of Default is continuing, (ii) Holders of at least 30% in principal amount of the outstanding Senior Secured Notes have requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy, (iii) such Holders have offered the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense, (iv) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity and (v) the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Senior Secured Notes have not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period. Subject to certain restrictions, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of outstanding Senior Secured Notes are given the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or the Senior Secured Notes Indenture or that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability. Prior to taking any action under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the Trustee will be entitled to indemnification satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.
19.    Trustee Dealings with the Issuer
The Trustee under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes and may otherwise collect obligations owed to it by the Issuers or their Affiliates and may otherwise deal with the Issuers or their Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.
20.    No Recourse Against Others
No (i) director, officer, employee, manager, incorporator or holder of any Equity Interests in BP I, BP II or any Issuer or any direct or indirect parent corporation or (ii) director, officer, employee or manager of a Senior Secured Note Guarantor, will have any liability for any obligations of the Issuers under the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes, the Senior Secured Note Guarantee, the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, any supplemental indentures thereto, or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation; provided, however, the foregoing shall not in any manner affect the liability of a Senior Secured Note Guarantor with respect to its Senior Secured Note Guarantee. Each holder of Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes by accepting a Fixed Rate Senior Secured Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws.
21.    Authentication
This Fixed Rate Senior Secured Note shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee (or an authenticating agent) manually signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this Fixed Rate Senior Secured Note.
22.    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 rights of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (=custodian), and U/G/M/A (=Uniform Gift to Minors Act).

FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, ARTICLES 86 TO 94-8 OF THE LUXEMBOURG LAW OF AUGUST 10, 1915 ON COMMERCIAL COMPANIES SHALL NOT BE APPLICABLE IN RESPECT OF THIS SENIOR SECURED NOTE.
24.    Agreed Tax Treatment
The Issuers agree, and by acquiring an interest in the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes each beneficial owner of a Fixed Rate Senior Secured Note agrees, to the U.S. federal income tax treatment described in Section 13.16 of the Senior Secured Notes Indenture.

No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

[FORM OF REVERSE SIDE OF FLOATING RATE SENIOR SECURED NOTE]
Senior Secured Floating Rate Note due 2021
1.    (a) Interest
Reynolds Group Issuer LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (such company being herein called the “US Issuer I”), Reynolds Group Issuer Inc., a Delaware corporation (such company being herein called the “US Issuer II” and, together with the US Issuer I, the “US Issuers”), and Reynolds Group Issuer (Luxembourg) S.A., a company incorporated as a société anonyme (a public limited liability company) under the laws of Luxembourg (the “Luxembourg Issuer” and, together with the US Issuers, the “Issuers”), promise to pay interest on the principal amount of this Floating Rate Senior Secured Note at the rate per annum, reset quarterly, equal to the 3-month Dollar LIBO Rate (as defined below) plus 3.50%.
The Issuers shall pay interest quarterly on January 15, April 15, July 15 and October 15 of each year, commencing October 15, 2016 (each, an “Interest Payment Date”). Interest on the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or provided for or, if no interest has been paid or provided for, from June 27, 2016 until the principal hereof is due. Interest shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days in the interest period concerned divided by 360. The Issuers shall pay interest on overdue principal at the rate borne by the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes, and it shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the same rate to the extent lawful.
(b) Calculation of Interest; Calculation Agent
The Calculation Agent shall, as soon as practicable after 11:00 a.m. London time on each LIBOR Interest Determination Date, in relation to each interest period, calculate the amount of interest (the “Interest Amount”) payable in respect of each Floating Rate Senior Secured Note for such interest period. The Interest Amount will be calculated by applying the rate of interest for such interest period to the principal amount of such Floating Rate Senior Secured Note, multiplying the product by the actual number of days in such interest period divided by 360. The Calculation Agent will cause the rate of interest and Interest Amount for each interest period determined by it, together with the relevant Interest Payment Date, to be notified to the Issuers, the Paying Agent and the holders of Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes. The Calculation Agent will also notify to each listing authority, stock exchange and/or quotation system (if any) by which the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes have been admitted to listing, trading and/or quotation as soon as practicable after such determination but in any event not later than the first day of the relevant interest period, the rate of interest and the amount of interest payable in respect of each U.S. $1,000 principal amount of Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes. All percentages resulting from any of the above calculations will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred thousandth of a percentage point, with five one millionths of a percentage point being rounded upwards (e.g., 4.876545% (or .04876545) being rounded to 4.87655% (or .0487655)) and all dollar amounts resulting from such calculations will be rounded to the nearest cent (with one-half cent being rounded upwards). The determination of the Applicable Rate and the Interest Amount by the Calculation Agent shall, in the absence of manifest error, be final and binding on all parties. The interest rate payable on the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes will not be higher than the maximum rate permitted by New York state law as that law may be modified by U.S. law of general application; provided, however, that the Calculation Agent shall not be responsible for verifying such maximum rate of interest and shall have no liability therefor. The Trustee, Registrar, paying agents and transfer agents shall not be responsible for nor incur any liability in relation to any computation of interest made, or intended to be made, by the Calculation Agent.
The Calculation Agent will reset the rate of interest on the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes on each Interest Payment Date and with respect to the first interest period, the Issue Date (each also a “LIBO Rate Reset Date”). The interest rate set for the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes on a particular LIBO Rate Reset Date will remain in effect during the interest period commencing on that LIBO Rate Reset Date. Each interest period will be the period from and including a LIBO Rate Reset Date to but excluding the next LIBO Rate Reset Date or until the maturity date of the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes, as the case may be.
The Calculation Agent will, upon the written request of any holder of any Floating Rate Senior Secured Note, provide the interest rate then in effect with respect to the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes.
3-month Dollar LIBO Rate” means the rate determined in accordance with the following provisions:
On the LIBOR Interest Determination Date, the Calculation Agent will determine the 3-month Dollar LIBO Rate, which will be the rate for deposits in U.S. dollars having a three-month maturity which appears on the Bloomberg L.P. page “BBAM” as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on the Interest Determination Date; or if such rate does not appear on the Bloomberg L.P. page “BBAM” on any LIBOR Interest Determination Date, then the corresponding rate appearing on the Reuters Screen LIBOR01 as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on the relevant LIBOR Interest Determination Date; or

A-6






If no rate appears on the Reuters Screen LIBOR01 or the Bloomberg L.P. page “BBAM” on the LIBOR Interest Determination Date the rate will be determined on the basis of the rates at which deposits in U.S. Dollars are offered by four major banks in the London interbank market selected by BP I (the “Reference Banks”) at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that LIBOR Interest Determination Date to prime banks in the London interbank market for the period of three months commencing on the applicable LIBO Rate Reset Date and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in U.S. Dollars in that market at that time. The Calculation Agent, after consultation with the Issuers, will request the principal London office of each of the Reference Banks to provide a quotation for its rate. If at least two such quotations are provided, then the 3-month Dollar LIBO Rate for that LIBOR Interest Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean of the quotations (rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundredth (0.01) of a percent). If fewer than two quotations are provided as requested, the rate for that LIBOR Interest Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean (rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one-hundredth (0.01) of a percent) of the rates quoted by major banks in New York City, selected by the Calculation Agent, after consultation with the Issuers, at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York time on that LIBOR Interest Determination Date for loans in U.S. dollars to leading European banks having a three-month maturity commencing on the applicable LIBO Rate Reset Date and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in U.S. dollars in that market at that time.
If the rate cannot be determined in accordance with the foregoing provision, the “3-month Dollar LIBO Rate” shall mean the 3-month Dollar LIBO Rate determined on the immediately preceding LIBOR Interest Determination Date.
Business Day Convention” means the following: If any LIBO Rate Reset Date or Interest Payment Date (other than the maturity date) would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, that LIBO Rate Reset Date or Interest Payment Date will be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day; provided, however, that if that date would fall in the next succeeding calendar month, such date will be the immediately preceding Business Day. If any such Interest Payment Date (other than the maturity date) is postponed or brought forward as described above, the interest amount will be adjusted accordingly. If the maturity date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, payment of principal and interest on the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes will be made on the next Business Day, and no interest will accrue for the period from and after the maturity date. Postponement as described above will not result in a default.
LIBOR Interest Determination Date” means the second London Banking Day preceding each LIBO Rate Reset Date.
London Banking Day” means any day on which commercial banks are open for general business (including dealings in foreign exchange and foreign currency deposits) in London. The interest rate determined on a LIBOR Interest Determination Date will become effective on and as of the next LIBO Rate Reset Date.
Reuters Page LIBOR01” means the display designated as “Page LIBOR01” on Reuters Money 3000 Service or any successor service (or such other page as may replace Page LIBOR01 on that service) or such other service displaying the London Inter-Bank offered rates of major banks, as may replace Reuters Money 3000 Service.
2.    Method of Payment
The Issuers shall pay interest on this Floating Rate Senior Secured Note (except defaulted interest) to the registered Holder at the close of business on the January 1, April 1, July 1 or October 1 next preceding the interest payment date even if this Floating Rate Senior Secured Note is canceled after the record date and on or before the interest payment date (whether or not a Business Day). The Issuers shall pay principal, premium, if any, and interest in US Dollars or such other lawful currency of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. The Issuers shall make all payments in respect of this Floating Rate Senior Secured Note (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) at the office of the relevant Paying Agent; provided that all such payments [shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Holder or Holders thereof] [at the option of the Issuers, may be made through the Principal Paying Agent by mailing a check to the registered address of each Holder thereof].
3.    Paying Agent and Registrar
Initially, (i) The Bank of New York Mellon (the “Trustee”) shall act as Trustee, Principal Paying Agent (“Principal Paying Agent”), Collateral Agent (the “Collateral Agent”), Transfer Agent (“Transfer Agent”), Registrar (the “Registrar”) and Calculation Agent (the “Calculation Agent”) and (ii) Wilmington Trust (London) Limited shall act as Additional Collateral Agent (the “Additional Collateral Agent”). The Issuers may appoint and change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice. The Issuers or BP I or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent (other than with respect to Global Senior Secured Securities) or Registrar.
4.    Indenture
The Issuers issued the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes under an Indenture dated as of June 27, 2016 (the “Senior Secured Notes Indenture”), among the Issuers, the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, the Principal Paying Agent, the Transfer Agent, the Registrar, the Calculation Agent and the Additional Collateral Agent.

In addition, if such redemption or notice is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice may state that, in the Issuers’ discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Issuers in their 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, or, in the Issuers’ sole determination, may not be, satisfied (or waived by the Issuers in their sole discretion) by the redemption date, or by the redemption date so delayed. Without limiting the Issuers’ obligations under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the Issuers may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and the performance of the Issuers’ obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.
6.    Redemption for Taxation Reasons
The Issuers may redeem the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes, at their option, in whole, but not in part, at any time upon giving not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice (which notice will be irrevocable) to the secured noteholders mailed by first‑class mail to each holder’s registered address (or otherwise delivered in accordance with applicable DTC procedures) at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date fixed for redemption (a “Tax Redemption Date”) (subject to the right of secured noteholders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date) and all Additional Amounts (as defined in Section 7 below), if any, then due or that will become due on the Tax Redemption Date as a result of the redemption or otherwise, if any, if the Issuers determine in good faith that, as a result of:
(1) any change in, or amendment to, the law or treaties (or any regulations, protocols or rulings promulgated thereunder) of a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (as defined in Section 7 below) affecting taxation; or
(2) any change in official position regarding the application, administration or interpretation of such laws, treaties, protocols, regulations or rulings (including a holding, judgment or order by a government agency or court of competent jurisdiction) (each of the foregoing in clauses (1) and (2), a “Change in Tax Law”),
any Payor (as defined in Section 7 below), with respect to the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes or a Senior Secured Note Guarantee is, or on the next date on which any amount would be payable in respect of the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes would be, required to pay any Additional Amounts, and such obligation cannot be avoided by taking reasonable measures available to such Payor (including the appointment of a new Paying Agent or, where such payment would be reasonable, the payment through another Payor); provided, however, that no Payor shall be required to take any measures that in the Issuers’ good faith determination would result in the imposition on such person of any legal or regulatory burden or the incurrence by such person of additional costs, or would otherwise result in any adverse consequences to such person.
In the case of any Payor, the Change in Tax Law must be announced or become effective on or after the date of the Offering Circular. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such notice of redemption will be given earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Payor would be obliged to make such payment of Additional Amounts. Prior to the publication, mailing or delivery of any notice of redemption of the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes pursuant to the foregoing, the Issuers will deliver to the Trustee (a) an Officers’ Certificate stating that they are entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to their right so to redeem have been satisfied and (b) an opinion of an independent tax counsel of recognized standing to the effect that the Payor would be obligated to pay Additional Amounts as a result of a Change in Tax Law. The Trustee will accept such Officers’ Certificate and opinion as sufficient evidence of the satisfaction of the conditions precedent described above, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on the secured noteholders.
Subject to the terms of the applicable redemption notice, Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes called for redemption become due on the date fixed for redemption. On and after the redemption date, interest ceases to accrue on Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes or portions of them called for redemption.
The foregoing provisions will apply mutatis mutandis to the laws and official positions of any jurisdiction in which any successor to a Payor is organized or otherwise considered to be a resident for tax purposes or any political subdivision or taxing authority or agency thereof or therein. The foregoing provisions will survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of the Senior Secured Notes Indenture.
7.    Withholding Taxes
All payments made by any Issuer or any Senior Secured Note Guarantor or any successor in interest to any of the foregoing (each, a “Payor”) on or with respect to the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes or any Senior Secured Note Guarantee will be made without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any Taxes unless such withholding or deduction is required by law or FATCA; provided, however, that a Payor, in any case, may withhold from any interest payment made on the Floating Rate

A-9





Senior Secured Notes to or for the benefit of any person who is not a “United States person,” as such term is defined for U.S. federal income tax purposes, U.S. federal withholding tax, and pay such withheld amounts to the Internal Revenue Service, unless such person provides documentation to such Payor such that an exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax would apply to such payment if interest on the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes were treated as income from sources within the U.S. for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If any deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any Taxes imposed or levied by or on behalf of:
(1) any jurisdiction (other than the United States or any political subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein having power to tax) from or through which payment on the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes or any Senior Secured Note Guarantee is made by such Payor, or any political subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein having the power to tax; or
(2) any other jurisdiction (other than the United States or any political subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein having the power to tax) in which a Payor that actually makes a payment on the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes or its Senior Secured Note Guarantee is organized or otherwise considered to be a resident for tax purposes, or any political subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein having the power to tax,
(each of clause (1) and (2), a “Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction”), will at any time be required from any payments made by a Payor with respect to the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes or any Senior Secured Note Guarantee, including payments of principal, redemption price, interest or premium, if any, the Payor will pay (together with such payments) such additional amounts (the “Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary in order that the net amounts received in respect of such payments by the secured noteholders or the Trustee, as the case may be, after such withholding or deduction (including any such deduction or withholding from such Additional Amounts), will not be less than the amounts that would have been received in respect of such payments on the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes or the Senior Secured Note Guarantees in the absence of such withholding or deduction; provided, however, that no such Additional Amounts will be payable for or on account of:
(1) any Taxes that would not have been so imposed or levied but for the existence of any present or former connection between the relevant secured noteholder (or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder of, or possessor of power over the relevant secured noteholder, if such secured noteholder is an estate, nominee, trust, partnership, limited liability company or corporation) and the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (including 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) but excluding, in each case, any connection arising solely from the acquisition, ownership or holding of such Floating Rate Senior Secured Note, the receipt of any payment in respect thereof or the perfection or enforcement of any security interest related to the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes;
(2) any Taxes that would not have been so imposed or levied if the holder of the Floating Rate Senior Secured Note had complied with a reasonable request in writing of the Payor (such request being made at a time that would enable such holder acting reasonably to comply with that request) to make a declaration of nonresidence or any other claim or filing or satisfy any certification, information or reporting requirement for exemption from, or reduction in the rate of, withholding to which it is entitled (provided, however, that such declaration of nonresidence or other claim, filing or requirement is required by the applicable law, treaty, regulation or administrative practice of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction as a precondition to exemption from the requirement to deduct or withhold all or a part of any such Taxes);
(3) any Taxes that are payable otherwise than by withholding from a payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest under the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes or any Senior Secured Note Guarantee;
(4) any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, excise, transfer, personal property or similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge;
(5) [Reserved];
(6) except in the case of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Payor, any Taxes imposed in connection with a Floating Rate Senior Secured Note presented for payment by or on behalf of a secured noteholder or beneficial owner who would have been able to avoid such Tax by presenting the relevant Floating Rate Senior Secured Note to, or otherwise accepting payment from, another paying agent in a member state of the European Union;
(7) any Taxes arising under FATCA; or
(8) any combination of the above.

A-10





Such Additional Amounts will also not be payable (x) if the payment could have been made without such deduction or withholding if the beneficiary of the payment had presented the Floating Rate Senior Secured Note for payment (where presentation is required) within 30 days after the relevant payment was first made available for payment to the secured noteholder or (y) where, had the beneficial owner of the Floating Rate Senior Secured Note been the holder of the Floating Rate Senior Secured Note, such beneficial owner would not have been entitled to payment of Additional Amounts by reason of any of clauses (1) to (8) inclusive above.
The Payor will (i) make any required withholding or deduction and (ii) remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing authority of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction in accordance with applicable law. Upon request, the Payor will use all reasonable efforts to obtain certified copies of tax receipts evidencing the payment of any Taxes so deducted or withheld from each relevant taxing authority of each Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction imposing such Taxes and will provide such certified copies to the Trustee. If, notwithstanding the efforts of such Payor to obtain such receipts, the same are not obtainable, such Payor will provide the Trustee with other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Holder.
If any Payor will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts under or with respect to any payment made on the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes, at least 30 days prior to the date of such payment, the Payor will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating the fact that Additional Amounts will be payable and the amount so payable and such other information necessary to enable the Paying Agent to pay Additional Amounts to secured noteholders on the relevant payment date (unless such obligation to pay Additional Amounts arises less than 45 days prior to the relevant payment date, in which case the Payor shall deliver such Officers’ Certificate and such other information as promptly as practicable after the date that is 30 days prior to the payment date, but no less than five (5) Business Days prior thereto, and otherwise in accordance with the requirements of DTC).
Wherever in the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes, or any Senior Secured Note Guarantee there is mentioned, in any context:
(1) the payment of principal,
(2) redemption prices or purchase prices in connection with a redemption or purchase of Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes,
(3) interest, or
(4) any other amount payable on or with respect to any of the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes or any Senior Secured Note Guarantee,
such reference shall be deemed to include payment of Additional Amounts as described under this Section 7 to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof.
The Payor will pay any present or future stamp, court or documentary Taxes, or any other excise, property or similar Taxes, charges or levies that arise in any jurisdiction from the execution, delivery, registration or enforcement of any Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes, the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, or any other document or instrument in relation thereto (other than a transfer of the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes) excluding any such Taxes, charges or similar levies imposed by any jurisdiction that is not a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, and the Payor agrees to indemnify the secured noteholders and the Trustee for any such Taxes paid by such secured noteholders. The foregoing obligations will survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of the Senior Secured Notes Indenture and will apply mutatis mutandis to any jurisdiction in which any successor to a Payor is organized or otherwise considered to be a resident for tax purposes or any political subdivision or taxing authority or agency thereof or therein.
8.     Sinking Fund
The Issuers are not required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes.
9.    Notice of Redemption
Notice of redemption shall be mailed by first-class mail (or otherwise delivered in accordance with applicable DTC procedures) upon not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days’ prior notice to each Holder’s registered address. Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes in denominations of $2,000 or less may be redeemed in whole but not in part. The Trustee may select for redemption portions of the principal of Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes that have denominations larger than $2,000. Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes and portions thereof selected by the Trustee shall be in principal amounts of $2,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, except that if all of the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed, the entire outstanding amount of Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes held by such Holder, even if not in a multiple of $1,000 shall be redeemed. If money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued and unpaid interest and premiums (if any) on all Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the redemption date is deposited with a Paying Agent on or

A-11





before the redemption date and certain other conditions are satisfied, on and after such date interest ceases to accrue on such Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes (or such portions thereof) called for redemption.
10.
Repurchase of Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes at the Option of the Holders upon Change of Control and Asset Sales
Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each Holder will have the right, subject to certain conditions specified in the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, to require the Issuers to repurchase all or any part of such Holder’s Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and premiums, if any, to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of the Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), as provided in, and subject to the terms of, the Senior Secured Notes Indenture.
If holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Senior Secured Notes validly tender and do not withdraw such Senior Secured Notes in a Change of Control Offer and the Issuers, or any third party making a Change of Control Offer in lieu of the Issuers, purchase all of the Senior Secured Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Issuers or such third party will have the right, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following such purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, to redeem (with respect to the Issuers) or purchase (with respect to third parties) all Senior Secured Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the date of redemption or purchase.
In accordance with Section 4.06 of the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the Issuers shall be required to offer to purchase Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes upon the occurrence of certain events in connection with certain Asset Sales.
11.    Guarantees
From and after the Issue Date, each of the Senior Secured Note Guarantors will jointly and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantee on a senior basis to the extent set forth in the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement and any Additional Intercreditor Agreement (i) the full and punctual payment when due of all obligations of the Issuers under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture and this Floating Rate Senior Secured Note and (ii) the full and punctual performance within applicable grace periods of all other obligations of the Issuers under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture and this Floating Rate Senior Secured Note.
12.    Security
The Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes and the Senior Secured Note Guarantees will, with certain exceptions, have the benefit of Liens in the Collateral, which will consist of first priority security interests shared with the other First Lien Obligations, including the Issuers’ Existing Secured Debt (subject to Permitted Liens, which may rank ahead of the first priority security interests for the benefit of the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes, and except as otherwise set forth in the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement and any Additional Intercreditor Agreement), in the Collateral; provided, however, that in no event shall more than 65% of the total outstanding voting Equity Interests, or any of the assets, of any US Controlled Foreign Subsidiary be required to be pledged. In addition, as set forth in Section 12.01(a) of the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, for so long as any series of Issuers’ Existing Secured Debt remains outstanding and registered under the Securities Act, the capital Stock and securities of any Restricted Subsidiary will constitute Collateral with respect to the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes only to the extent that the securing of any series of the Issuers’ Existing Secured Debt with such capital stock and securities would not require such Restricted Subsidiary to file separate financial statements with the SEC under Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X, except that the limitations on stock collateral set forth in this sentence shall not apply to shares of Capital Stock of BP I at any time.
13.    Denominations; Transfer; Exchange

Upon any transfer or exchange, the Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements or transfer documents, furnish information regarding the account of the transferee at DTC, where appropriate, furnish certain certificates and opinions, and pay any taxes, duties and governmental charges in connection with such transfer or exchange. The Registrar need not register the transfer of or exchange any Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes selected for redemption (except, in the case of a Floating Rate Senior Secured Note to be redeemed in part, the portion of the Floating Rate Senior Secured Note not to be redeemed) or to transfer or exchange any Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes for a period of 15 days prior to a selection of Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes to be redeemed.

A-12





15.     Unclaimed Money
If money for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee and a Paying Agent shall pay the money back to the Issuers at its written request unless an abandoned property law designates another Person. After any such payment, the Holders entitled to the money must look to the Issuers for payment as general creditors and the Trustee and a Paying Agent shall have no further liability with respect to such monies.
16.    Discharge and Defeasance
Subject to certain conditions, the Issuers at any time may terminate some of or all their obligations under the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes and the Senior Secured Notes Indenture if the Issuers, among other things, deposit with the Trustee money, US Government Obligations, or a combination thereof, for the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes to redemption or maturity, as the case may be.
17.    Amendment; Waiver
Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, (i) the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the Senior Secured Notes, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement, any Additional Intercreditor Agreement and any Security Document may be amended with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Senior Secured Notes and (ii) any past default or compliance with any provisions may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Senior Secured Notes; provided, however, that (x) if any such amendment or waiver will only affect one series of Senior Secured Notes (or less than all series of Senior Secured Notes) then outstanding under this Senior Secured Notes Indenture, then only the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes of such series then outstanding (including, in each case, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for Senior Secured Notes) shall be required and (y) if any such amendment or waiver by its terms will affect a series of Senior Secured Notes in a manner different and materially adverse relative to the manner such amendment or waiver affects other series of Senior Secured Notes, then the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes of such series then outstanding (including, in each case, consent obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for Notes) shall be required. Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, without the consent of any Holder, the Issuers, the Collateral Agent, the Additional Collateral Agent and the Trustee may amend the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the Senior Secured Notes, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement, any Additional Intercreditor Agreement and any Security Document: (i) to cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency; (ii) to give effect to any provision of the Senior Secured Notes Indenture (including, without limitation, the release of any Senior Secured Note Guarantee in accordance with the terms of Section 10.06, 12.01(a)(i) and (ii) and 12.06 of the Senior Secured Notes Indenture); (iii) to comply with Article V of the Senior Secured Notes Indenture; (iv) to provide for the assumption by a Successor Company of the obligations of any Issuer under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture and the Senior Secured Notes or to provide for the assumption by a Successor Senior Secured Note Guarantor of the obligations of a Senior Secured Note Guarantor under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture and its Senior Secured Note Guarantee; (v) to provide for uncertificated Senior Secured Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Senior Secured Notes; provided, however, that the uncertificated Senior Secured Notes are issued in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of the Code; (vi) to add a Senior Secured Note Guarantee with respect to the Senior Secured Notes; (vii) to add assets to the Collateral; (viii) to release Collateral from any Lien pursuant to the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement, any Additional Intercreditor Agreement and the applicable Security Documents when permitted or required by the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement, any Additional Intercreditor Agreement and the applicable Security Documents; (ix) to the extent necessary to provide for the granting of a security interest for the benefit of any Person; provided, however, that the granting of such security interest is not prohibited under Section 4.17 of the Senior Secured Notes Indenture or otherwise under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture; (x) to add to the covenants of the Issuers, BP I, BP II or any Senior Secured Note Guarantor for the benefit of the Holders or to surrender any right or power conferred upon BP I or BP II; (xi) to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder; (xii) to evidence and give effect to the acceptance and appointment under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the 2013 Intercreditor Agreement, any Additional Intercreditor Agreement and the applicable Security Documents of a successor Trustee; (xiii) to provide for the accession of the Trustee to any instrument in connection with the Senior Secured Notes; (xiv) to make certain changes to the Senior Secured Notes Indenture to provide for the issuance of Additional Senior Secured Notes; (xv) [reserved.]; or (xvi) to conform to the text of the Senior Secured Notes Indenture or the Senior Secured Notes to any provision of the description of the senior secured notes in the Offering Circular, to the extent such provision in the description of the senior secured notes in the Offering Circular was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of the Senior Secured Notes Indenture or the Senior Secured Notes.
18.    Defaults and Remedies
If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default related to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization with respect to BP I, BP II, an Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary that, directly or indirectly, owns or holds any Equity Interest of an Issuer) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the holders of at least 30% in principal amount of outstanding Senior Secured Notes by notice to the Trustee and the Issuers may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued but unpaid interest on all the Senior Secured Notes to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal and interest will be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default relating to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization with respect to

A-13





BP I, BP II, an Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary that, directly or indirectly, owns or holds any Equity Interest of an Issuer occurs, the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on all the Senior Secured Notes will become immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any holders. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes by notice to the Trustee may rescind an acceleration and its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default have been cured or waived except nonpayment of principal or interest that has become due solely because of acceleration. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto.
Subject to provisions of the Senior Secured Notes Indenture relating to the duties of the Trustee, in case an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture at the request or direction of any of the holders unless such holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium (if any) or interest when due, no holder may pursue any remedy with respect to the Senior Secured Notes Indenture or the Senior Secured Notes unless (i) such Holder has previously given the Trustee notice that an Event of Default is continuing, (ii) Holders of at least 30% in principal amount of the outstanding Senior Secured Notes have requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy, (iii) such Holders have offered the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense, (iv) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity and (v) the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Senior Secured Notes have not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period. Subject to certain restrictions, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of outstanding Senior Secured Notes are given the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or the Senior Secured Notes Indenture or that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability. Prior to taking any action under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the Trustee will be entitled to indemnification satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.
19.    Trustee Dealings with the Issuer
The Trustee under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes and may otherwise collect obligations owed to it by the Issuers or their Affiliates and may otherwise deal with the Issuers or their Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.
20.    No Recourse Against Others
No (i) director, officer, employee, manager, incorporator or holder of any Equity Interests in BP I, BP II or any Issuer or any direct or indirect parent corporation or (ii) director, officer, employee or manager of a Senior Secured Note Guarantor, will have any liability for any obligations of the Issuers under the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes, the Senior Secured Notes Guarantees, the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, any supplemental indentures thereto, or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation; provided, however, the foregoing shall not in any manner affect the liability of a Senior Secured Note Guarantor with respect to its Senior Secured Note Guarantee. Each holder of Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes by accepting a Floating Rate Senior Secured Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws.
21.    Authentication
This Floating Rate Senior Secured Note shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee (or an authenticating agent) manually signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this Floating Rate Senior Secured Note.
22.    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 rights of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (=custodian), and U/G/M/A (=Uniform Gift to Minors Act).
23.    Governing Law
THIS SENIOR SECURED NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW. FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, ARTICLES 86 TO 94-8 OF THE LUXEMBOURG LAW OF AUGUST 10, 1915 ON COMMERCIAL COMPANIES SHALL NOT BE APPLICABLE IN RESPECT OF THIS SENIOR SECURED NOTE.

A-14





24.    Agreed Tax Treatment
The Issuers agree, and by acquiring an interest in the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes each beneficial owner of a Floating Rate Senior Secured Note agrees, to the U.S. federal income tax treatment described in Section 13.16 of the Senior Secured Notes Indenture.
25.    CUSIPs; ISINs
The Issuers have caused CUSIPs and ISINs to be printed on the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes and have directed the Trustee to use CUSIPs and ISINs in notices of redemption as a convenience to the Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

(b)    If any Loan Party shall be subject to any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding at any time prior to the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, and any First Lien Secured Party shall seek to provide any Loan Party with, or consent to a third party providing, any financing under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of foreign law or consent to any order for the use of cash collateral under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of foreign law (“DIP Financing”), with such DIP Financing to be secured by all or any portion of the Shared Collateral (including assets that, but for the application of Section 552 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of foreign law would be Shared Collateral), then each Second Lien Representative, for and on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Secured Parties represented thereby, agrees that it will raise no objection and will not directly or indirectly support or act in concert with any other party in raising an objection to such DIP Financing or to the Liens securing such DIP Financing on the grounds of a failure to provide “adequate protection” for the Liens of such Second Lien Representative securing the applicable Second Lien Obligations or on any other grounds, and will subordinate its Liens on the Shared Collateral to (i) the Liens securing such DIP Financing (and all obligations relating thereto), (ii) any adequate protection Liens provided to the First Lien Secured Parties, and (iii) any “carve-out” for professional or United States Trustee fees agreed to by the First Lien Representative, so long as (x) such Second Lien Representative retains its Lien on the Shared Collateral to secure the applicable Second Lien Obligations (in each case, including Proceeds thereof arising after the commencement of the case under the Bankruptcy Code), (y) all Liens on Shared Collateral securing any such DIP Financing are senior to or on a parity with the Liens of the First Lien Secured Parties on the Shared Collateral securing the First Lien Obligations and (z) if any First Lien Secured Party receives an adequate protection Lien on post-petition assets of the debtor to secure the First Lien Obligations, such Second Lien Representative may also seek an adequate protection Lien on such post-petition assets of the debtor to secure the related Second Lien Obligations in accordance with Section 5.08; provided that (A) each such Lien in favor of such First Lien Secured Party and such Second Lien Secured Party shall be subject to the provisions of Section 5.01(c) and (B) the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.01(b) shall not prevent any Second Lien Secured Party from objecting to any provision in any DIP Financing relating to any provision or content of a plan of reorganization (including with respect to the treatment therein of any Second Lien Obligations).
(c)    All Liens granted to any First Lien Secured Party or Second Lien Secured Party in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, whether as adequate protection or otherwise, are intended by the Parties to be and shall be deemed to be subject to the Lien Priority and the other terms and conditions of this Agreement; provided that the foregoing shall not alter the super-priority of any Liens securing any DIP Financing consented to by the Applicable First Lien Representative.
(d)    Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, without limiting Section 6.04, each Second Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other Second Lien Secured Parties, agrees that, in the event of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, the Second Lien Secured Parties:
(i)    will be deemed to have consented to, and will not oppose or object to (or support any other Person in opposing or objecting to), any disposition of any Collateral free and clear of the Second Priority Liens or other claims under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any bidding procedures in connection therewith or any other related or ancillary matter, including the retention of any professionals), or any comparable provision of any other Bankruptcy Law, if the Applicable First Lien Representative shall consent to, or not oppose or object to, such disposition so long as the proceeds of such sale are applied in accordance with this Agreement; provided that (a) the Liens of the Second Lien Secured Parties shall attach to any remaining proceeds with the same priority and validity as the Liens held by the Second Lien Secured Parties in the Shared Collateral[,][ and] (b) the net cash Proceeds of any sale under Section 363(b) of the Bankruptcy Code are permanently applied to the DIP Financing or any First Lien Obligations[ and (c) this subsection (i) shall not be deemed to be a waiver of the rights of the Second Lien Secured Parties to credit bid on the Shared Collateral in any such disposition in accordance with Section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code in compliance with Section 5.05(a)(ix)];


15

Post-Petition Interest. (a)  Each Second Lien Representative and Second Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other Second Lien Secured Parties it represents, agrees that no Second Lien Secured Party shall oppose or seek to challenge (or support any other Person in opposing or challenging) any claim by any First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of First Lien Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees, expenses or charges to the extent of the value of the First Priority Liens (it being understood and agreed that such value shall be determined without regard to the existence of the Second Priority Liens on the Collateral).

provided that if the First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party shall have made any claim for post-petition interest, fees or expenses in respect of First Lien Obligations, such claim (i) shall have been approved or (ii) will be approved contemporaneously with the approval of any such claim by a Second Lien Collateral Agent or any Second Lien Secured Party.

(I)
all or substantially all of the consideration for such sale or other disposal is cash or cash equivalents; and
(II)
the Applicable First Lien Representative has taken reasonable care to obtain a fair market price, based on prevailing market conditions (though the Applicable First Lien Representative shall have no obligation to postpone (or request the postponement of) any Distressed Disposal or Debt Sale in order to achieve a higher price) (it being understood that the Applicable First Lien Representative shall be deemed to have taken such reasonable care if (w) the Distressed Disposal or Debt Sale is made pursuant to a public auction, (x) the Distressed Disposal or Debt Sale is made pursuant to any process or proceedings approved or supervised by or on behalf of any court of law, (y) the Distressed Disposal or Debt Sale is made by, or at the direction of or under the control of a liquidator, receiver, administrative receiver, administrator, compulsory manager or other similar officer appointed in respect of the applicable Loan Parties or its assets, or (z) an internationally recognized investment bank selected by the Applicable First Lien Representative has delivered to the Applicable First Lien Representative and the Applicable Second Lien Representative an opinion that the price received in connection with or proceeds of the Distressed Disposal are fair from a financial point of view after taking into account all relevant circumstances).
SECTION 6.05.
    
Reinstatement. (f)  If, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise, all or part of any payment with respect to the First Lien Obligations previously made shall be rescinded, invalidated, avoided, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or otherwise required to be transferred to a debtor-in-possession, trustee, receiver or similar Person or the estate of any Loan Party (a “Recovery”) for any reason whatsoever, then the First Lien Obligations shall be reinstated to the extent of the amount so subject to a Recovery as if such payment had not occurred and, if theretofore terminated, this Agreement shall be reinstated in full force and effect and such prior termination shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the Lien Priority and the relative rights and obligations of the First Lien Secured Parties and the Second Lien Secured Parties provided for herein. No Second Lien Secured Party may benefit from a Recovery, and any distribution


22




made to a Second Lien Secured Party as a result of a Recovery will be paid over to the First Lien Collateral Agent for application to the First Lien Obligations in accordance with Section 4.02.
(g)
    Without limiting Section 6.05(a) above, if, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise, all or part of any payment with respect to the Second Lien Obligations previously made shall be subject to a Recovery for any reason whatsoever, then, to the extent such Second Lien Obligations are reinstated, this Agreement, if theretofore terminated, shall be reinstated in full force and effect and such prior termination shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the Lien Priority and the relative rights and obligations of the First Lien Secured Parties with respect to the Second Lien Secured Parties provided for herein.
SECTION 6.06.
    
Insurance. So long as the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has not occurred, the First Lien Collateral Agents (at the written direction of the Applicable First Lien Representative) and the other First Lien Secured Parties shall have the exclusive right, subject to the rights of the Grantors under the First Lien Credit Documents, to settle and adjust claims in respect of Collateral under policies of insurance covering Collateral and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding, or any deed in lieu of condemnation, in respect of the Collateral. All Proceeds of any such policy and any such award, or any payments with respect to a deed in lieu of condemnation, shall be applied, subject to the rights of the Grantors under the applicable Credit Documents, as set forth in Section 4.01. Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, if the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Party shall, at any time, receive any Proceeds of any such insurance policy or any such award or payment, it shall transfer and pay over such Proceeds to the First Lien Collateral Agent in accordance with Section 4.02.
SECTION 6.07.
    
Refinancings. The Obligations of any Series may be Refinanced, in whole or in part, in each case, without notice to, or the consent (except to the extent a consent is otherwise required to permit the Refinancing transaction under any Credit Document) of any Secured Party of any other Series, all without affecting the priorities provided for herein or the other provisions hereof; provided that (a) the Representative of the holders of any such Refinancing Indebtedness shall have executed a Joinder on behalf of the holders of such Refinancing Indebtedness in their capacity as such, (b) the requirements set forth in Section 8.04 relating to, in the case of any Series of First Lien Obligations being Refinanced, Additional First Lien Obligations and, in the case of any Series of Second Lien Obligations being Refinanced, Additional Second Lien Obligations are met and (c) Holdings has designated in writing to each Representative and Collateral Agent that the Additional First Lien Agreement or Additional Second Lien Agreement, as applicable, is the replacement for the Main Credit Document governing such Series of Obligations. Upon the execution of such Joinder and compliance with the requirements in the immediately preceding sentence, the Secured Parties agree to enter into any documents or take any other actions reasonably necessary to preserve the priorities provided for herein in light of, and after giving effect to, such Refinancing.
SECTION 6.08.
    
Possessory Collateral Agent as Gratuitous Bailee for Perfection. (c)  So long as the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has not occurred, each First Lien Collateral Agent shall be entitled to deal with the Possessory or Controlled Collateral in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other First Lien Credit Documents as if the Second Priority Liens did not exist. The obligations and responsibilities of the First Lien Collateral Agents to the Second Lien Collateral Agents and the other Second Lien Secured Parties under this Section 6.08 shall be limited solely to holding or controlling the Possessory or Controlled Collateral as gratuitous bailee or gratuitous agent for the Second Lien Collateral Agents and the other Second Lien Secured Parties for the purpose of perfecting the Lien held by the Second Lien Secured Parties, and transferring the Possessory or Controlled Collateral, in each case subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 6.08. Without limiting the foregoing, the First Lien Collateral Agents shall have no obligation or responsibility to ensure that any Possessory or Controlled Collateral is genuine or owned by any of the Grantors or, other than holding or controlling such Possessory or Controlled Collateral as gratuitous bailee or gratuitous agent for or on behalf of the Second Lien Collateral Agents and the other Second Lien Secured Parties, to preserve the rights or benefits of any Person. The First Lien Collateral Agents acting pursuant to this Section 6.08 shall not, by reason of this Agreement, any other Security Document or any other document, have a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Party. The parties recognize that the interest of the First Lien Collateral Agents, on the one hand, and the Second Lien Collateral Agents and the other Second Lien Secured Parties, on the other hand, may differ, and each First Lien Collateral Agent may act in its own interest without taking into account the interest of the Second Lien Collateral Agents or any other Second Lien Secured Party.
(d)
    Upon the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, each First Lien Collateral Agent shall transfer the possession and control of the Possessory or Controlled Collateral, together with any necessary endorsements but without recourse, representation or warranty, (i) if the Second Lien Obligations are outstanding at such time, to the appropriate Second Lien Collateral Agent and (ii) if no Second Lien Obligations are outstanding at such time, to the applicable Grantor, in each case so as to allow such Person to obtain possession and control of such Possessory or Controlled Collateral. In connection with any transfer under clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence, each First Lien Collateral Agent agrees to take all commercially reasonable actions at the expense of Holdings and the Grantors as shall be reasonably


23




requested by the appropriate Second Lien Collateral Agent to permit such Second Lien Collateral Agent to obtain, for the benefit of the Second Lien Secured Parties, a first priority security interest in the Possessory or Controlled Collateral.
(e)
    Each Second Lien Collateral Agent agrees that if it shall at any time prior to the Discharge of First Lien Obligations hold a Second Priority Lien on any Possessory or Controlled Collateral and if, notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement (and disregarding any control the Second Lien Collateral Agent might have solely as a result of the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.08), such Possessory or Controlled Collateral is in fact in the possession or under the control of such Second Lien Collateral Agent, or of agents or bailees of such Second Lien Collateral Agent, such Second Lien Collateral Agent shall (i) solely for the purpose of perfecting the First Priority Liens granted under the First Lien Credit Documents, also hold or control such Possessory or Controlled Collateral as gratuitous bailee or gratuitous agent, as applicable, for the First Lien Collateral Agents and the other First Lien Secured Parties (and hereby acknowledges that it has control of any Possessory or Controlled Collateral in its control for the benefit of the First Lien Collateral Agents and the other First Lien Secured Parties), (ii) promptly inform each First Lien Collateral Agent and the Applicable First Lien Representative thereof and (iii) transfer the possession and control of such Possessory or Controlled Collateral, together with any necessary endorsements but without recourse, representation or warranty, to the appropriate First Lien Collateral Agent and, in connection therewith, take all commercially reasonable actions as shall be reasonably requested by such First Lien Collateral Agent or the Applicable First Lien Representative to permit such First Lien Collateral Agent to obtain, for the benefit of the First Lien Secured Parties, a first priority security interest in such Possessory or Controlled Collateral.
(f)
    [Reserved]
SECTION 6.09.
    
Further Assurances. Each First Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other First Lien Secured Parties, and each Second Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other Second Lien Secured Parties, agrees that it will execute, or will cause to be executed, any and all further documents, agreements and instruments, and take all such further actions, as may be required under any applicable law, or which a First Lien Collateral Agent, the Applicable First Lien Representative, a Second Lien Collateral Agent or the Applicable Second Lien Representative may reasonably request, to effectuate the terms of this Agreement, including the Lien Priority provided for herein.
SECTION 6.10.
    
Separate Liens and Classifications. Each Second Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other Second Lien Secured Parties, and each First Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other First Lien Secured Parties, acknowledges and agrees that (i) the grants of Liens pursuant to the First Lien Security Documents and the Second Lien Security Documents constitute two separate and distinct grants of Liens and (ii) because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Collateral, the Second Lien Obligations are fundamentally different from the First Lien Obligations and must be separately classified in any plan of reorganization proposed or adopted in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentence and without limiting Section 5.03, if it is held that the claims of the First Lien Secured Parties and the Second Lien Secured Parties in respect of the Shared Collateral constitute only one secured claim (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims), then each of the parties hereto hereby acknowledges and agrees that, subject to the provisions hereof, all distributions shall be made as if there were separate classes of senior and junior secured claims against the Grantors in respect of the Shared Collateral (with the effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the Shared Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the Second Lien Secured Parties) to satisfy the First Lien Obligations, the First Lien Secured Parties shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts otherwise distributed to them in respect of principal, pre-petition interest, fees and other claims constituting First Lien Obligations, all amounts owing in respect of post-petition interest, including any additional interest payable pursuant to each First Lien Credit Document, arising from or related to a default, which is included in the First Lien Obligations but which is disallowed as a claim in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding) before any distribution is made in respect of the claims held by the Second Lien Secured Parties with respect to, or on account of the value of, the Collateral, and each Second Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other Second Lien Secured Parties, hereby acknowledges and agrees to turn over to the appropriate First Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other First Lien Secured Parties, amounts otherwise received or receivable by the Second Lien Secured Parties to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence (with respect to the payment of post-petition interest), even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the claim or recovery of the Second Lien Secured Parties.

(i)

No Second Lien Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have

No Collateral Agent shall be bound to examine or inquire into or be liable for any defect or failure in the right or title of the Grantors to all or any of the assets whether such defect or failure was known to such Collateral Agent or might have been discovered upon examination or inquiry and whether capable of remedy or not.
(iii)
    No Collateral Agent shall be responsible for any unsuitability, inadequacy, expiration or unfitness of any security interest created hereunder or pursuant to any other Security Document pertaining to this matter nor shall it be obligated to make any investigation into, and shall be entitled to assume, the adequacy and fitness of any security interest created hereunder or pursuant to any other Security Document pertaining to this matter.

    No Collateral Agent shall have any responsibility for or liability with respect to monitoring compliance of any other party to the Security Documents to which it is a party, this Agreement or any other document related hereto or thereto.

Each Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords similar collateral and shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral, by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or bailee.
(xx)
    No Collateral Agent shall be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder, except to the extent such action or omission constitutes gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of such Collateral Agent, for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral. No Collateral Agent shall have any duty to ascertain or inquire as to or monitor the performance or observance of any of the terms of this Agreement or the Credit Documents to which it is a party by any other Person.
(xxi)
    Holdings shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless each Collateral Agent from and against any claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages or reasonable costs or expenses of whatever kind or nature, known or unknown, contingent or otherwise, arising out of the following in respect of the Collateral: (w) the presence, disposal, release, or threatened release of any Hazardous Materials which are on, from, or affecting the soil, water, vegetation, buildings, personal property, persons or animals; (x) any personal injury (including wrongful death) or property damage (real or personal) arising out of or related to such Hazardous Materials; (y) any lawsuit brought or threatened, settlement reached, or government order relating to such Hazardous Materials; and/or (z) any violation of laws, orders, regulations, requirements or demands of government authorities, which are based upon or in any way related to such Hazardous Materials, including reasonable attorney and consultant fees and expenses, reasonable investigation and laboratory fees, court costs, and reasonable litigation expenses, except, in each case, where such claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages, costs or expenses arise from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Collateral Agent as determined in a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. For purposes of this paragraph, “Hazardous Materials” includes radioactive materials, hazardous materials, hazardous wastes, hazardous or toxic substances defined in the US Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, as amended (42 U.S.C. §§ 9601,
et seq.) (“CERCLA”), the Hazardous Materials Transportation Act, as amended (49 U.S.C. §§ 5108, et seq.), the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, as amended (42 U.S.C. §§ 6901, et seq.), and in the regulations adopted and publications promulgated pursuant thereto, or any other Federal, state or local environmental law, ordinance, rule, or regulation.

(xxiii)
    Upon any payment or distribution of assets hereunder, each Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon any order or decree entered by any court of competent jurisdiction in which an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding is pending, or a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, custodian, receiver, assignee for the benefit of creditors, agent or other person making such payment or distribution in the Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, delivered to such Collateral Agent, for the purpose of ascertaining the persons entitled to participate in such payment or distribution, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto.


28




(xxiv)
    In the event that, following a foreclosure in respect of any Mortgaged Property, a Collateral Agent acquires title to any portion of such Mortgaged Property or takes any managerial action of any kind in regard thereto in order to carry out any fiduciary or trust obligation for the benefit of another, which in such Collateral Agent’s sole discretion may cause such Collateral Agent to be considered an “owner or operator” under the provisions of CERCLA or otherwise cause such Collateral Agent to incur liability under CERCLA or any other Federal, state or local law, such Collateral Agent reserves the right, instead of taking such action, to either resign as Collateral Agent or arrange for the transfer of the title or control of the asset to a court-appointed receiver.
(xxv)
    The rights and protections of each Collateral Agent set forth herein shall also be applicable to such Collateral Agent in its roles as mortgagee, beneficiary, pledgee or any of its other roles (including as Collateral Agent) under the Security Documents to which it is a party.

SECTION 7.04.
    
Delegation of Duties. (h) Each Collateral Agent (each, a “Delegating Collateral Agent”) may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Security Document by or through any one or more sub-agents, delegates or attorneys-in-fact appointed by such Delegating Collateral Agent and shall not be responsible for acts or omissions of any such sub-agents, delegates or attorneys-in-fact appointed by it with due care. Each Delegating Collateral Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through its respective Affiliates. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Affiliates of each Delegating Collateral Agent and any such sub-agent.
(i)
    Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirement of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Collateral subject to or purporting to be subject to the Liens of the Delegating Collateral Agent may at the time be located, the Delegating Collateral Agent shall have the power and may execute and deliver all instruments necessary to appoint one or more Persons to act as a separate collateral agent or agent for all or any part of such Collateral, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the Secured Parties, such title to such Collateral, or any part thereof, and subject to the other provisions of this Section, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Delegating Collateral Agent may consider necessary or desirable;
provided that any such separate collateral agent or agent executes a joinder as described in the definition of First Lien Collateral Agent or Second Lien Collateral Agent, as appropriate.
(j)
    Every such Person shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions:
(i)
    all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Delegating Collateral Agent shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Delegating Collateral Agent and such separate collateral agent or agent jointly (it being understood that they are not authorized to act separately without the Delegating Collateral Agent consenting to such act); and
(ii)
    the Delegating Collateral Agent may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any such separate collateral agent or agents.
(k)
    Any notice, request or other writing given to a Delegating Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then collateral agent or agents hereunder, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate collateral agent or agent shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article VII. Each collateral agent or agent, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Delegating Collateral Agent or separately, as may be provided

therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection or rights (including the rights to compensation, reimbursement and indemnification hereunder) to, the Delegating Collateral Agent. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Delegating Collateral Agent.
(l)
    Any Collateral Agent [or agent] may at any time constitute the Delegating Collateral Agent, its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any Collateral Agent [or agent] shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Delegating Collateral Agent to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor collateral agent.
(m)
    Nothing in this Agreement or in any Security Document shall be deemed to require any Collateral Agent to submit to the jurisdiction of any non-US or non-United Kingdom court.
It is the purpose of this Article VII that there shall be no violation of any law of any jurisdiction (including particularly the law of any sovereign state) denying or restricting the right of any Collateral Agent to transact business or bring legal proceedings in such jurisdiction. It is recognized that in case of litigation under this Agreement, and, in particular, in case of the enforcement thereof on default, or in the case any Collateral Agent deems that by reason of any present or future law of any jurisdiction it may not exercise any of the powers, rights or remedies herein granted to it or hold title to the properties, in trust, as herein granted or take any action which may be desirable or necessary in connection therewith, it may be necessary that a Collateral Agent appoint an individual or institution as a collateral agent or agent. The following provisions of this Section are adopted to these ends.
In the event that any Collateral Agent appoints an additional individual or institution as a collateral agent or agent, each and every remedy, power, right, claim, demand, cause of action, immunity, estate, title, interest and lien expressed or intended by this Agreement to be exercised by or vested in or conveyed to such Collateral Agent with respect thereto shall be exercisable by and vest in such separate collateral agent or agent but only to the extent necessary to enable such collateral agent or agent to exercise such powers, rights and remedies.
Each Delegating Collateral Agent that is a First Lien Collateral Agent shall furthermore have the rights set forth in the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement.
SECTION 7.05.
    
Resignation of Collateral Agents. (f) Subject to the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and the other Security Documents to which it is a party, any Collateral Agent may resign as a Collateral Agent hereunder; provided that such Collateral Agent provides written notice of its resignation as a Collateral Agent hereunder and under the applicable Security Documents to the Applicable Representatives, Holdings and any other Person required to be notified pursuant to the Second Lien Credit Documents and any successor Collateral Agent becomes a party hereto by executing a joinder in form and substance satisfactory to the Applicable First Lien Representative, Holdings, and in the case of the resignation of a Second Lien Collateral Agent, the Applicable Second Lien Representative. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as a Collateral Agent hereunder and under the applicable Security Documents, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Collateral Agent, and the retiring (or retired) Collateral Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Security Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section 7.05).
(g)
    In the event any Collateral Agent retires hereunder and under the other applicable Security Documents, the provisions of this Article shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Collateral Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Collateral Agent was acting as Collateral Agent. Upon any notice of resignation of any Collateral Agent hereunder and under the other Security Documents, Holdings agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to transfer (and maintain the validity and priority of) the Liens in favor of the retiring Collateral Agent under the relevant Security Documents to the successor Collateral Agent. In addition, the retiring (or retired) Collateral Agent agrees to execute any documents required by applicable law to give effect to the transfer of its duties and obligations.
SECTION 7.06.
    
Non-Reliance on Information. The consent by the First Lien Secured Parties to the execution and delivery of the Initial Second Lien Agreement and each other Second Lien Credit Document to which the First Lien Secured Parties have consented and all loans and other extensions of credit made or deemed made on and after the date hereof by the First Lien Secured Parties to Holdings or any Subsidiary shall be deemed to have been given and made in reliance upon this Agreement. Each Second Lien Collateral Agent and Second Lien Representative, on behalf of itself and each other Second Lien Secured Party it represents, acknowledges that it and such other Second Lien Secured Parties have, independently and without reliance on the Applicable First Lien Representative, any First Lien Collateral Agent, any First Lien Representative or any


30




other First Lien Secured Party, and based on documents and information deemed by them appropriate, made their own credit analysis and decision to enter into the Second Lien Credit Documents to which they are party or by which they are bound, this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and they will continue to make their own credit decisions in taking or not taking any action under the Second Lien Credit Documents or this Agreement.
SECTION 7.07.
    
Rights as a Secured Party. (g)  Each Person serving as a Collateral Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Secured Party under any Series of Obligations that it holds as any other Secured Party of such Series and may exercise the same as though it were not a Collateral Agent and the Person serving as a Collateral Agent hereunder in its individual capacity may be a Secured Party of any Series in accordance with the applicable Credit Documents. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Grantors or any subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not a Collateral Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to any other Secured Party.
SECTION 7.08.
    
Authorization to Release. Each of the First Lien Secured Parties reaffirms its authorization and instruction to the First Lien Collateral Agents under Section 4.08 of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement with respect to release of First Lien Collateral. Each of the Second Lien Secured Parties irrevocably authorizes and instructs the Second Lien Collateral Agents:
(a)
    to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Second Lien Collateral Agent under any Second Lien Security Document in accordance with 5.01(d) and 6.04 or upon receipt of a written request from Holdings stating that the release of such Lien is permitted by the terms of each then extant Second Lien Credit Document; and
(b)
    to release any Grantor from its obligations under the Second Lien Security Documents upon receipt of a written request from Holdings stating that such release is permitted by the terms of each then extant Second Lien Credit Document or in accordance with Sections 5.01(d) and 6.04.
SECTION 7.09.
    
Indemnity. Holdings and the other Loan Parties shall reimburse and indemnify each Collateral Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the applicable Credit Documents. The provisions of this Section 7.09 shall survive the termination of this Agreement, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, [the Existing Intercreditor Agreements,] any other “Intercreditor Agreement” as defined in the First Lien Credit Agreement, any intercreditor agreement to which more than one Series of Second Lien Obligations is subject or the Security Documents or the resignation or removal of any Collateral Agent.

Any such amendment, supplement or waiver shall be in writing and shall be binding upon the First Lien Secured Parties and the Second Lien Secured Parties and their respective successors and assigns.

Additional Obligations. (h) So long as permitted by the applicable negative covenant restricting Liens contained in each Main Credit Document then in effect, Holdings may from time to time designate Indebtedness and other obligations at the time of incurrence to be Additional First Lien Obligations or Additional Second Lien Obligations by (i) delivering to each then existing Representative and Collateral Agent (A) a certificate signed by a Responsible Officer of Holdings (1) identifying the Indebtedness and other obligations so designated and the aggregate principal amount or face amount thereof, (2) stating that such Indebtedness and other obligations are designated as “Additional First Lien Obligations” or “Additional Second Lien Obligations”, as applicable, for purposes hereof, (3) representing that such Indebtedness complies with the applicable negative covenant restricting Liens contained in each Main Credit Document then outstanding and (4) specifying the name and address of the Representative for such Indebtedness and other obligations and (B) a fully executed Joinder and (ii) in the case of any Additional First Lien Obligations, complying with the requirements in the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement necessary to add such Indebtedness and other obligations as “Additional Obligations” as defined in and under the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement. Each First Lien Representative agrees that upon the satisfaction of all conditions set forth in the preceding sentence, the First Lien Collateral Agents shall act hereunder for the benefit of all First Lien Secured Parties, including any First Lien Secured Parties that hold any Additional First Lien Obligations, and each First Lien Representative agrees to the appointment, and acceptance of the appointment, of the First Lien Collateral Agent as agent for the holders of such Additional First Lien Obligations as set forth in each Joinder and agrees, on behalf of itself and each First Lien Secured Party it represents, to be bound by this Agreement.

    In order to secure any Additional First Lien Obligations or Additional Second Lien Obligations, on the date on which such Additional First Lien Obligation or Additional Second Lien Obligation is incurred, subject to no Event of Default having occurred and being continuing under any Credit Document and without limiting the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, (i) each First Lien Collateral Agent at the written direction of the Applicable First Lien Representative, and (ii) each Second Lien Collateral Agent, at the direction of the Applicable Second Lien Representative, is authorized to, and shall, at the request of Holdings, enter into such additional security documents and/or any amendments, amendments and restatements, restatements or waivers of or supplements to or other modifications to, any First Lien Security Documents or Second Lien Security Documents, as applicable, and related instruments and any agreements relating to any security interest in Possessory or Controlled Collateral, and to make or consent to any filings or take any other actions (including executing and recording any mortgage subordination or similar agreement) as shall be reasonably determined by Holdings to be necessary or reasonably desirable to create valid and perfected Liens securing such Additional First Lien Obligations (subject to the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement) or Additional Second Lien Obligations with the Lien Priority set forth herein;

Subrogation. Each Second Lien Representative, on behalf of itself and each other Second Lien Secured Party it


33




represents, hereby waives any rights of subrogation it may acquire as a result of any payment hereunder until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred; provided that, as between Holdings and the other Grantors, on the one hand, and the Second Lien Secured Parties, on the other hand, any such payment that is paid over to the Applicable First Lien Representative pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed not to reduce any of the Second Lien Obligations unless and until the Discharge of First Priority Debt Obligations shall have occurred and the Applicable First Lien Representative delivers any such payment to the Applicable Second Lien Representative.
