The Issuer may charge the Holder for the expenses of the Issuer and the Trustee in replacing a Note. In case the mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Issuer in its discretion may pay the Note instead of issuing a replacement Note.

(b) A Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or any of its Affiliates holds the Note; provided that in determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of the outstanding Notes have given or taken any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action hereunder, Notes owned by the Issuer or any Affiliate of the Issuer will be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding (it being understood that in determining whether the Trustee is protected in relying upon any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, only Notes which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has received written notice from the Issuer that such Notes are so owned

will be so disregarded). Notes so owned which have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as outstanding if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right so to act with respect to such Notes and that the pledgee is not the Issuer or any Affiliate of the Issuer.

After the preparation of definitive Notes, the temporary Notes will be exchangeable for definitive Notes upon surrender of the temporary Notes at the office or agency of the Issuer designated for the purpose pursuant to Section 4.02, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any temporary Notes the Issuer will execute and the Trustee will, upon the written direction of the Issuer, authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Notes of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes will be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Notes.

Section 2.07. Cancellation. The Issuer at any time may deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Issuer may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated hereunder which the Issuer has not issued and sold. Any Registrar or the Paying Agent will forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to it for transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee will cancel all Notes surrendered for transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation and dispose of them in accordance with its normal procedures. The Issuer may not issue new Notes to replace Notes they have paid in full or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

Section 2.08. CUSIP and CINS Numbers. The Issuer in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP” and “CINS” numbers, and the Trustee will use CUSIP numbers or CINS numbers in notices of redemption or exchange or in a Change of Control Offer as a convenience to Holders, the notice to state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption or exchange or Change of Control Offer. The Issuer will promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the CUSIP or CINS numbers.

Section 2.09. Registration, Transfer and Exchange.

(a) The Notes will be issued in registered form only, without coupons, and the Issuer shall cause the Registrar to maintain a register (the “Register”) of the Notes, for registering the record ownership of the Notes by the Holders and transfers and exchanges of the Notes.

(b) (1) Each Global Note will be registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee and, so long as DTC is serving as the Depositary thereof, will bear the DTC Legend.

limited to transfers thereof in whole, but not in part, to the Depositary, its successors or their respective nominees, except (1) as set forth in Section 2.09(b)(4) and (2) transfers of portions thereof in the form of Certificated Notes of such series may be made upon request of an Agent Member (for itself or on behalf of a beneficial owner) by written notice given to the Trustee by or on behalf of the Depositary in accordance with customary procedures of the Depositary and in compliance with this Section and Section 2.10.

(3) Agent Members will have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the Depositary, and the Depositary may be treated by the Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee as the absolute owner and Holder of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Depositary or its nominee may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person (including any Agent Member and any Person that holds a beneficial interest in a Global Note through an Agent Member) to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Notes, and nothing herein will impair, as between the Depositary and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of any security.

(4) If (x) the Depositary notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for a Global Note and a successor depositary is not appointed by the Issuer within 90 days of the notice or (y) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Trustee has received a request from the Depositary, the Trustee will promptly exchange each beneficial interest in the Global Note for one or more Certificated Notes in authorized denominations having an equal aggregate principal amount registered in the name of the owner of such beneficial interest, as identified to the Trustee by the Depositary, and thereupon the Global Note will be deemed canceled. If such Note does not bear the Restricted Legend, then the Certificated Notes issued in exchange therefor will not bear the Restricted Legend. If such Note bears the Restricted Legend, then the Certificated Notes issued in exchange therefor will bear the Restricted Legend, provided that any Holder of any such Certificated Note issued in exchange for a beneficial interest in a Temporary Offshore Global Note will have the right upon presentation to the Trustee of a duly completed Certificate of Beneficial Ownership after the Restricted Period to exchange such Certificated Note for a Certificated Note of like tenor and amount that does not bear the Restricted Legend, registered in the name of such Holder.

(d) A Holder may transfer a Note (or a beneficial interest therein) to another Person or exchange a Note (or a beneficial interest therein) for another Note or Notes of any authorized denomination of such series by presenting to the Trustee a written request therefor stating the name of the proposed transferee or requesting such an exchange, accompanied by any certification, opinion or other document required by Section 2.10. The Registrar will promptly register any transfer or exchange that meets the requirements of this Section by noting the same in the register maintained by the Registrar for the purpose; provided that:

(x) no transfer or exchange will be effective until it is registered in such Register; and

(y) the Trustee will not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Note for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer, (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Note so selected for redemption or purchase in whole or in part, except, in the case of a partial redemption or purchase, that portion of any Note not being redeemed or purchased, or (iii) if a redemption or a purchase pursuant to a Change of Control Offer is to occur after a Regular Record Date but on or before the corresponding Interest Payment Date, to register the transfer of or exchange any Note on or after the Regular Record Date and before the date of redemption or purchase. Prior to the registration of any transfer, the Issuer, the Trustee and their agents will treat the Person in whose name the Note is registered as the owner and Holder thereof for all purposes (whether or not the Note is overdue), and will not be affected by notice to the contrary.

From time to time the Issuer will execute and the Trustee will, upon the written direction of the Issuer, authenticate additional Notes as necessary in order to permit the registration of a transfer or exchange in accordance with this Section.

No service charge will be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of any Note, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than a transfer tax or other similar governmental charge payable upon exchange pursuant to subsection (b)(4) of this Section 2.09).

(e) (1) Global Note to Global Note. If a beneficial interest in a Global Note is transferred or exchanged for a beneficial interest in another Global Note, the Trustee will (x) record a decrease in the principal amount of the Global Note being transferred or exchanged equal to the principal amount of such transfer or exchange and (y) record a like increase in the principal amount of the other Global Note. Any beneficial interest in one Global Note that is transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in another Global Note, or exchanged for an interest in another Global Note, will, upon transfer or exchange, cease to be an interest in such Global Note and become an interest in the other Global Note and, accordingly, will thereafter be subject to all transfer and exchange restrictions, if any, and other procedures applicable to beneficial interests in such other Global Note for as long as it remains such an interest.

(2) Global Note to Certificated Note. If a beneficial interest in a Global Note is transferred or exchanged for a Certificated Note, the Trustee will (x) record a decrease in the principal amount of such Global Note equal to the principal amount of such transfer or exchange and (y) deliver one or more new Certificated Notes in authorized denominations having an equal aggregate principal amount to the transferee (in the case of a transfer) or the owner of such beneficial interest (in the case of an exchange), registered in the name of such transferee or owner, as applicable.

(3) Certificated Note to Global Note. If a Certificated Note is transferred or exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Global Note, the Trustee will (x) cancel such

Certificated Note, (y) record an increase in the principal amount of such Global Note equal to the principal amount of such transfer or exchange and (z) in the event that such transfer or exchange involves less than the entire principal amount of the canceled Certificated Note, deliver to the Holder thereof one or more new Certificated Notes in authorized denominations having an aggregate principal amount equal to the untransferred or unexchanged portion of the canceled Certificated Note, registered in the name of the Holder thereof.

(4) Certificated Note to Certificated Note. If a Certificated Note is transferred or exchanged for another Certificated Note, the Trustee will (x) cancel the Certificated Note being transferred or exchanged, (y) deliver one or more new Certificated Notes in authorized denominations having an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such transfer or exchange to the transferee (in the case of a transfer) or the Holder of the canceled Certificated Note (in the case of an exchange), registered in the name of such transferee or Holder, as applicable, and (z) if such transfer or exchange involves less than the entire principal amount of the canceled Certificated Note, deliver to the Holder thereof one or more Certificated Notes in authorized denominations having an aggregate principal amount equal to the untransferred or unexchanged portion of the canceled Certificated Note, registered in the name of the Holder thereof.

Section 3.04. Method and Effect of Redemption.

(a) If the Issuer elects to redeem Notes of any series, it must notify the Trustee of the redemption date and the principal amount of Notes of such series to be redeemed by delivering an Officer’s Certificate at least 15 days before the redemption date (unless a shorter period is satisfactory to the Trustee). If fewer than all of the Notes of any series are being redeemed, the Officer’s Certificate must also specify a record date not less than 10 days after the date of the notice of redemption is given to the Trustee, and the Trustee will select the Notes of such series to be redeemed pro rata, by lot or by any other method the Trustee in its sole discretion deems fair and appropriate, in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary, in denominations of $2,000 principal amount and higher integral multiples of $1,000. The Trustee will notify the Issuer promptly of the Notes of any series or portions of Notes of any series to be called for redemption. Notice of redemption must be sent by the Issuer or at the Issuer’s prior written request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuer, to Holders whose Notes of any series are to be redeemed at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.04(a), the provisions of this Section 3.04(a) shall not apply to a Special Mandatory Redemption, which shall be governed by Section 3.03.

(b) The notice of redemption will identify the Notes of any series to be redeemed and will include or state the following:

(1) the redemption date and any conditions to such redemption;

(2) the redemption price, including the portion thereof representing any accrued interest;

(3) the place or places where Notes are to be surrendered for redemption;

(4) Notes called for redemption must be so surrendered in order to collect the redemption price;

(5) on the redemption date, subject to satisfaction of any conditions specified therein, the redemption price will become due and payable on Notes called for redemption, and interest on Notes called for redemption will cease to accrue on and after the redemption date;

(6) if any Note is redeemed in part, on and after the redemption date, upon surrender of such Note, new Notes equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion will be issued; and

(7) if any Note contains a CUSIP or CINS number, no representation is being made as to the correctness of the CUSIP or CINS number either as printed on the Notes or as contained in the notice of redemption and that the Holder should rely only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes.

(c) Notice of any redemption upon any corporate transaction or other event (including any Equity Offering, incurrence of Debt, Change of Control or other transaction) may be given prior to the completion thereof. In addition, any redemption or notice thereof may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of a corporate transaction or other event. For the avoidance of doubt, if any redemption date shall be delayed as contemplated by this Section 3.04 and the terms of the applicable notice of redemption, such redemption date as so delayed may occur at any time after the original redemption date set forth in the applicable notice of redemption and after the satisfaction of any applicable conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, on a date that is less than 10 days after the original redemption date or more than 60 days after the date of the applicable notice of redemption. To the extent that the redemption date will occur on a date other than the original redemption date set forth in the applicable notice of redemption, the Issuer shall notify the Holders and the Trustee of the final redemption date prior to such date; provided that the failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of any redemption under this Indenture.

(d) Once notice of redemption is sent to the Holders, Notes of any series called for redemption become due and payable at the redemption price on the redemption date except as provided in Section 3.04(c), and upon surrender of the Notes of any series called for redemption, the Issuer shall redeem such Notes at the redemption price. Commencing on the redemption date, any redeemed Notes of any series will cease to accrue interest. Upon surrender of any Note of any series redeemed in part, the Holder will receive a new Note of such series equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the surrendered Note of any series. The redemption of any series of Notes under this Article 3 is subject to the rights of Holders of Notes of any series on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date and the redemption price of any series of Notes shall not include any such interest.

Article 4

In each case the Issuer will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of its compliance with this paragraph.

Section 4.02. Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Issuer will maintain in the contiguous United States of America, an office or agency where Notes of any series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange or for presentation for payment and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer in respect of the Notes of any series and this Indenture may be served. The Issuer hereby initially designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee as such office of the Issuer. The Issuer will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency.

The Issuer may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes of any series may be surrendered or presented for any of such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations.

Any Lien that is granted to secure the Notes shall be automatically released and discharged at the same time as the release of the Lien that gave rise to the obligation to secure the Notes.

(b) Notwithstanding the restrictions described above, the Issuer and any Guarantor may Incur any Debt secured by Liens which would otherwise be subject to the foregoing restrictions without equally and ratably securing the Notes; provided that at the time of such Incurrence, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of all outstanding Debt secured by Liens which could not have been Incurred by the Issuer and any Guarantor without equally and ratably securing the Notes then outstanding except for the provisions of this Section 4.04(b) does not at such time exceed 12.5% of the Consolidated Total Assets of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries.

Section 4.05. Future Guarantors.

The Issuer shall cause (a) on the Redfin Closing Date, Redfin, (b) on the Mr. Cooper Closing Date, the Mr. Cooper Guarantors and (c) after the Issue Date, any Subsidiary of the Issuer that is not then the Issuer or a Guarantor and that guarantees or issues any Additional Capital Markets Debt, to jointly and severally irrevocably and unconditionally guarantee on a senior basis the performance and punctual payment when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all the obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture and the Notes, whether for payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, expenses (including legal fees and expenses), indemnification or otherwise.

If (A) the notice is mailed in a manner herein provided and (B) any Holder fails to receive such notice or a Holder receives such notice but it is defective, such Holder’s failure to receive such notice or such defect shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the purchase of the Notes of any series as to all other Holders that properly received such notice without defect.

(g) If Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes of any series validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in a Change of Control Offer and the Issuer, or any third party making a Change of Control Offer in lieu of the Issuer as described above, purchases all of the Notes of such series that are validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Issuer or such third party will have the right, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior written notice, given not more than 30 days following such purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer described in this Section 4.06, to redeem all Notes of such series that remain outstanding following such purchase at a price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to but excluding the date of redemption (subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant interest Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date).

(h) Holders of Notes of any series electing to have Notes repurchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender their Notes, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Repurchase” on the reverse of the Note completed, to the Trustee at the address specified in the notice, or transfer their Notes to the Paying Agent by book-entry transfers pursuant to the applicable procedures of the Paying Agent prior to the close of business on the third Business Day prior to the Change of Control Payment Date.

(i) The Issuer will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Notes of any series as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any such securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 4.06, the Issuer will comply with those securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.06 by virtue of any such compliance.

(1) The Issuer shall provide the Trustee and Holders with annual consolidated financial statements audited by the Issuer’s independent public accountants within 90 days after the end of the Issuer’s fiscal year (or such later time period specified in the Commission’s rules and regulations for non-accelerated filers, including any extension as would be permitted by Rule 12b-25 under the Exchange Act or any special order of the SEC), and unaudited quarterly consolidated financial statements (including a balance sheet, income statement and cash flow statement for the fiscal quarter or quarters then ended and the corresponding fiscal quarter or quarters from the prior year) within 45 days of the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of each fiscal year (or such later time period specified in the Commission’s rules and regulations for non-accelerated filers, including any extension as would be permitted by Rule 12b-25 under the Exchange Act or any special order of the Commission). Such annual and quarterly financial statements will be prepared in accordance with GAAP and be accompanied by a management’s discussion and analysis of the results of operations and liquidity and capital resources of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries for the periods presented in a level of detail comparable to the management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries contained in the Offering Memorandum; and

(2) The Issuer shall disclose to the Trustee and Holders the occurrence of any event concerning the Issuer or its Subsidiaries that would be required to be reported on Form 8-K if the Issuer were required to file such reports pursuant to Items 1.01, 1.02 (it being understood that the Issuer and its Subsidiaries shall only be required to disclose events under Items 1.01 and 1.02 of Form 8-K to the extent that such events relate to the entry into, or termination or amendment of, any material definitive agreement in respect of a financing other than Securitization Indebtedness, Warehousing Indebtedness or MSR Indebtedness, or acquisition or disposition of a business, and that the exhibits to such form need not be filed), 1.03, 2.01, 2.03, 2.04 (it being understood that the Issuer and its Subsidiaries shall not be required to disclose events under Items 2.03 and 2.04 of Form 8-K to the extent that such events relate to Securitization Indebtedness, Warehousing Indebtedness or MSR Indebtedness), 3.03 (only to the extent such events are with respect to the rights of the Noteholders), 4.01, 4.02, and 5.01, in each case, within 10 days of the occurrence of such event and, in the case of any significant acquisition or disposition (for which pro forma financial statements would be required by rules of the Commission) in which the purchase price (including cash and non-cash amounts) of any business disposed of or acquired exceeds 50% of Total Shareholders’ Equity of the Issuer as of the date of consummation thereof, the Issuer shall provide to the Trustee and the Holders within 90 days after the consummation thereof: (i) pro forma financial information reflecting the impact of such disposition or acquisition on the Issuer’s or a non-Reporting Parent Entity’s historical financial position and results of operations caused by any such transaction and (ii) in the case of any acquisition or investment referred to in clause (i) for which pro forma financial information is required, historical financial information for such entity for all periods that would be required pursuant to Regulation S-X.

The financial statements, reports, information and other documents required to be provided pursuant to this Section 4.07 may be those of (i) the Issuer or (ii) any direct or indirect parent of the Issuer (any such entity described in clause (i) or (ii), a “Reporting Entity”), so long as in the case of clause (ii) either (1) such direct or indirect parent of the Issuer shall not conduct, transact or otherwise engage, or commit to conduct, transact or otherwise engage, in any business or operations other than its direct or indirect ownership of all of the Equity Interests in, and its management, of the Issuer, or (2) if otherwise, the financial information so delivered shall be accompanied by a description of the material quantitative differences between the information relating to such parent, on the one hand, and the information relating to the Issuer and its Subsidiaries (or, if a direct or indirect parent of the Issuer provides a Note Guarantee but is not otherwise a Reporting Entity (a “non-Reporting Parent Entity”), then the information relating to the non-Reporting Parent Entity and its subsidiaries) on a standalone basis, on the other hand (unless such Reporting Entity provides a Note Guarantee).

The financial statements and related discussion referred to in clause (1) and the current reports referred to in clause (2) shall be made available to Holders, prospective investors, market makers affiliated with any initial purchaser of the Notes and securities analysts by posting on a password protected or otherwise secured confidential website maintained by the Issuer (or the website of any of the Issuer’s parent companies, including the Reporting Entity) or on IntraLinks or any comparable online data system or website. Disclosure of any current reports shall be accompanied by a notice of posting released on Bloomberg or a similar news service reasonably accessible to investors in securities such as the Notes.

If at any time the Issuer or any direct or indirect parent of the Issuer has made a good faith determination to file a registration statement with the Commission with respect to a public offering of such entity’s Capital Stock, the Issuer will not be required to disclose any information or take any actions that, in the good faith view of the Issuer, would violate the securities laws or the Commission’s “gun jumping” rules.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) neither the Issuer nor another Reporting Entity will be required to deliver any information, certificates or reports that would otherwise be required by (i) Section 302 or Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or related Items 307 or 308 of Regulation S-K, (ii) Regulation G or (iii) Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the Commission with respect to any non-generally accepted accounting principles financial measures contained therein, (b) such reports will not be required to contain financial information required by Rule 3-09, Rule 3-10 or Rule 3-16 (or any successor provision, including Rule 13-01 and Rule 13-02) of Regulation S-X or include any exhibits or certifications required by Form 10-K, Form 10-Q or Form 8-K (or any successor or comparable forms) or related rules under Regulation S-K and (c) such reports shall be subject to exceptions, exclusions and other differences consistent with the presentation of financial and other information in the Offering Circular and shall not be required to present compensation or beneficial ownership information.

In addition, the Issuer will make the information and reports available to prospective investors upon request (which prospective investors shall be limited to “qualified institutional buyers” within the meaning of Rule 144A of the Securities Act or non-U.S. persons (as defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act) that certify their status as such to the reasonable satisfaction of the Issuer).

(b) The Issuer or the Reporting Entity will schedule a conference call to be held not more than 15 Business Days following the release of, at the option of the Issuer or the Reporting Entity, (i) any earnings release for the Issuer or the Reporting Entity for any fiscal quarter or fiscal year or (ii) each report containing the financial information referred to in clause (a)(1) of this Section 4.07, beginning with the first full fiscal quarter ending after the Issue Date, at which the Issuer or the Reporting Entity will make available their senior management to discuss the information contained in such earnings release or report, as applicable, on such conference call; provided that such conference calls shall be permitted to be held jointly with conference calls the Issuer or the Reporting Entity holds for holders of their other Indebtedness or equity or debt securities. Prior to the date of such call, the Issuer or the Reporting Entity will notify Holders of Notes about such call and provide them and prospective investors, market makers affiliated with any initial purchaser of the Notes and securities analysts with call-in information.

(c) For so long as any Notes remain outstanding and constitute “restricted securities” under Rule 144 and during any period when neither the Issuer nor another Reporting Entity is subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, or otherwise permitted to furnish the Commission with certain information pursuant to Rule 12g3-2(b) of the Exchange Act, the Issuer or the Reporting Entity will furnish to the Holders of the Notes and prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act.

(d) Delivery of reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such reports shall not constitute actual or constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Issuer’s and/or the Guarantors’ compliance with any of its covenants under this Indenture or the Notes (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officer’s Certificates). The Trustee shall not be obligated to determine whether any reports or other documents have been filed with the Commission or via the EDGAR system (or any successor thereto) or posted on any website, or to participate in any conference calls.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer will be deemed to have delivered such reports and information referred to in this Section 4.07 to the Holders, prospective investors, market makers, securities analysts and the Trustee for all purposes of this Indenture, and an accompanying notice of posting shall not be required, if the Issuer or another Reporting Entity has filed such reports with the Commission via the EDGAR filing system (or any successor system) and such reports are publicly available. In addition, the requirements of this Section 4.07 will be deemed satisfied and the Issuer will be deemed to have delivered such reports and information referred to above to the Trustee, Holders, prospective investors, market makers and securities analysts for all purposes of this Indenture, and an accompanying notice of posting shall not be required, by the posting of reports and information that would be required to be provided on the Issuer’s website (or that of any of the Issuer’s parent companies, including the Reporting Entity). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee shall have no obligation to monitor or confirm, on a continuing basis or otherwise, whether the Issuer or another Reporting Entity post such reports, information and documents on the EDGAR filing system (or any successor system), or collect any such information from the EDGAR filing system (or any successor system).

(f) Any and all Defaults or Events of Default arising from a failure to furnish or file in a timely manner a report or other information required by this Section 4.07 shall be deemed cured (and the Issuer shall be deemed to be in compliance with this Section 4.07) upon furnishing or filing such report or other information as contemplated by Section 4.07 (but without regard to the date on which such report or other information is so furnished or filed); provided that such cure shall not otherwise affect the rights of the Holders under Article 6 if payment of the Notes has been accelerated in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and such acceleration has not been rescinded or cancelled prior to such cure.

Section 4.08. Reports to Trustee.

(a) The Issuer will deliver to the Trustee, concurrently with the delivery of the annual consolidated audited financial statements described in Section 4.07(a)(1), an Officer’s Certificate stating that there has been no Default or, if there has been a Default, specifying the Default and its nature and status.

(b) The Issuer will deliver to the Trustee, as soon as possible and in any event within 30 days after the Issuer become aware of a Default, an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the details of the Default, and the action which the Issuer proposes to take with respect thereto.

(a) If on any date (i) the Notes have an Investment Grade Rating from any two of the three Rating Agencies and (ii) no Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture (the occurrence of the events described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) being collectively referred to as a “Covenant Suspension Event”), then beginning on such date and continuing until the Reversion Date (as defined below), with respect to the Notes, the Issuer and its Subsidiaries will not be subject to Section 4.05 (the “Suspended Covenant”).

(b) If on any date subsequent to the Covenant Suspension Date (the “Reversion Date”) that any two of the three Rating Agencies withdraw their Investment Grade Rating or downgrade the rating assigned to the Notes below an Investment Grade Rating, then the Issuer and its Subsidiaries will thereafter again be subject to the Suspended Covenant on or after such date.

(c) Notwithstanding that the Suspended Covenant may be reinstated after the Reversion Date, (i) no Default, Event of Default or breach of any kind will be deemed to exist under this Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees with respect to the Suspended Covenant, and none of the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries shall bear any liability for any actions taken or events occurring during the Suspension Period, or any actions taken at any time pursuant to any contractual obligation arising during any Suspension Period, in each case as a result of a failure to comply with the Suspended Covenant during the Suspension Period (or, upon termination of the Suspension Period or after the time based solely on any action taken or event that occurred during the Suspension Period), and (ii) following a Reversion Date, the Issuer and each Subsidiary will be permitted, without causing a Default or Event of Default, to honor, comply with or otherwise perform any contractual commitments or obligations arising during any Suspension Period and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby.

(d) The Trustee shall have no duty to monitor the ratings of the Issuer, shall not have be deemed to have any knowledge of the ratings of the Issuer and shall have no duty to notify Holders of the occurrence of a Covenant Suspension Event or to independently determine or verify if such event has occurred.

(5) there occurs with respect to any Debt of the Issuer or any of the Guarantors (other than a Securitization Entity) having an outstanding principal amount of the greater of $2.0 billion and 10.0% of consolidated stockholders’ equity of the Issuer for the most recently ended fiscal quarter for which financial statements were delivered to the Trustee (other than Non-Recourse Debt) or more in the aggregate for all such Debt of all such Persons (i) an event of default that results in such Debt being accelerated prior to its scheduled maturity or (ii) failure to make a principal payment at final maturity when due and such defaulted payment is not made, waived or extended within the applicable grace period;

(6) one or more final judgments or orders for the payment of money in the aggregate for all such Persons are rendered against the Issuer or any of the Guarantors (other than a Securitization Entity) that is a Significant Subsidiary and are not paid, bonded or discharged when due, and there is a period of 60 consecutive days following entry of the final judgment or order by a court of competent jurisdiction that causes the aggregate amount for all such final judgments or orders outstanding and not paid, bonded or discharged when due against all such Persons to exceed the greater of $2.0 billion and 10.0% of consolidated stockholder’s equity of the Issuer for the most recently ended fiscal quarter for which financial statements were delivered to the Trustee (in excess of amounts covered by valid and binding insurance policies which the Issuer’s insurance carriers have not declined to pay) during which a stay of enforcement, by reason of a pending appeal or otherwise, is not in effect; provided, however, that any such judgment or order for the payment of money shall not result in an Event of Default if such judgment or order would not be material to the Issuer and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and would not reasonably be expected to affect the Issuer’s ability to make principal or interest payments on the Notes of such series;

(7) an involuntary case or other proceeding is commenced against the Issuer or any Subsidiary (other than a Securitization Subsidiary) that is a Significant Subsidiary with respect to it or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect seeking the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official of it or any substantial part of its property, and such involuntary case or other proceeding remains undismissed and unstayed for a period of 60 days; or an order for relief is entered against the Issuer or any such Subsidiary (other than a Securitization Subsidiary) that is a Significant Subsidiary under the federal bankruptcy laws as now or hereafter in effect; or

(8) the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries (other than a Securitization Subsidiary) that is a Significant Subsidiary (i) commences a voluntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or consents to the entry of an order for relief in an involuntary case under any such law, (ii) consents to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator or similar official of the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries (other than a Securitization Subsidiary) that is a Significant Subsidiary or for all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Issuer or of such Subsidiary (other than a Securitization Subsidiary) that is a Significant Subsidiary or (iii) effects any general assignment for the benefit of creditors (an event of default specified in clause (7) or (8) a “Bankruptcy Default”).

Section 6.02. Acceleration. (a) If an Event of Default, other than a Bankruptcy Default with respect to the Issuer, occurs and is continuing with respect to any series of Notes, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of such series then outstanding, by written notice to the Issuer (and to the Trustee if the notice is given by the Holders), may, and the Trustee at the request of such Holders shall, declare the principal of and accrued interest on the Notes of such series to be immediately due and payable. Upon a declaration of acceleration, such principal and interest will become immediately due and payable. If a Bankruptcy Default occurs with respect to the Issuer, the principal of and accrued interest on the Notes then outstanding will become immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder of Notes.

(b) The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes of any series by written notice to the Issuer and to the Trustee may waive all past defaults and rescind and annul a declaration of acceleration and its consequences if:

(1) all existing Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes of such series that have become due solely by the declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived; and

(2) the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(c) In the event of any Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(5), such Event of Default and all consequences thereof shall be annulled, waived and rescinded, automatically and without any action by the Trustee or the Holders, if within 60 days after the Issuer or such Guarantor received notice of such acceleration or failed to make a principal payment:

(x) the Debt that is the basis for such Event of Default has been discharged; or

(y) the Holders thereof have rescinded, annulled 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.

Section 6.03. Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may (but shall not be obligated to) pursue, in its own name or as trustee of an express

trust, any available remedy by proceeding at law or in equity to collect the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes of any series or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes of any series or this Indenture. The Trustee may (but shall not be obligated to) maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes of such series or does not produce any of them in the proceeding.

Section 6.04. Waiver of Past Defaults. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 6.02, 6.07 and 9.02, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes of any series may, by notice to the Trustee, waive an existing Default and its consequences. Upon such waiver, the Default will cease to exist with respect to the Notes of such series, and any Event of Default arising therefrom will be deemed to have been cured, but no such waiver will extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Section 6.05. Control by Majority. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes of any series may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, provided that the Trustee may require indemnity satisfactory to it to be furnished prior to taking such action. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture, that may involve the Trustee in personal liability, or that the Trustee determines in good faith may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of Holders of Notes of such series not joining in the giving of such direction (it being understood that the Trustee has no duty to determine whether any action is prejudicial to any Holder), and may take any other action it deems proper that is not inconsistent with any such direction received from Holders of Notes of such series.

Section 6.06. Limitation on Suits. A Holder may not institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture or the Notes of any series, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy under this Indenture or the Notes of such series, unless:

(1) the Holder has previously given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default;

(2) Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes of such series have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of the Event of Default in its own name as Trustee under this Indenture;

(3) Holders of Notes of such series have offered and, if requested, provided to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any costs, liabilities or expenses to be incurred in compliance with such request;

(4) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and

(5) during such 60-day period, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes of such series have not given the Trustee a written direction that is inconsistent with such written request.

Section 6.07. Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the right of a Holder of a Note of any series to receive payment of principal of or interest on its Note on or after the Stated Maturities thereof, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, may not be impaired or affected without the consent of that Holder.

Section 6.08. Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default in payment of principal or interest specified in clause (1) or (2) of Section 6.01 occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may (but shall not be obligated to) recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust for the whole amount of principal and accrued interest remaining unpaid, together with interest on overdue principal and overdue installments of interest, in each case at the rate specified in the Notes, and such further amount as is sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and any other amounts due to the Trustee hereunder.

Section 6.09. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee may (but shall not be obligated to) file proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due to the Trustee hereunder) and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relating to the Issuer or any Guarantor or their respective creditors or property, and is entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money, securities or other property payable or deliverable upon conversion or exchange of the Notes of any series or upon any such claims. Any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, if the Trustee consents to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agent and counsel, and any other amounts due to the Trustee hereunder. Nothing in this Indenture will be deemed to empower the Trustee to authorize or consent to, or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder, any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes of any series or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

Section 6.10. Priorities. If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article, it shall pay out the money in the following order:

First: to the Trustee, the Agents and their respective agents for all amounts (including their legal fees and expenses) due hereunder;

Second: to Holders for amounts then due and unpaid for principal of and interest on the Notes of any series, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes of such series for principal and interest; and

Third: to the Issuer or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

The Trustee, upon written notice to the Issuer, may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section.

Section 6.11. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted a proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and the proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to the Holder, then, subject to any determination in the proceeding, the Issuer, any Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders will be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Issuer, any Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders will continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

Section 6.12. Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, a court may require any party litigant in such suit (other than the Trustee) to file an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant (other than the Trustee) in the suit having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section does not apply to a suit by a Holder to enforce payment of principal of or interest on any Note of any series on the respective due dates, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes of any series.

Section 6.13. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. No right or remedy conferred or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders under this Indenture is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and all such rights and remedies are, to the extent permitted by law, cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or exercise of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, will not prevent the concurrent assertion or exercise of any other right or remedy.

Section 6.14. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default will impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

Section 6.15. Waiver of Stay, Extension or Usury Laws. The Issuer and each Guarantor covenants, to the extent that it may lawfully do so, that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law or any usury law or other law that would prohibit or forgive the Issuer or the Guarantor from paying all or any portion of the principal of, or interest on the Notes of any series as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture. The Issuer and each Guarantor hereby expressly waives, to the extent that it may lawfully do so, all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

Article 7

THE TRUSTEE

Section 7.01. General.

(a) The duties and responsibilities of the Trustee are as set forth herein. Whether or not expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee is subject to this Article.

(b) (i) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default with respect to any series of Notes, the Trustee need perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others, and no implied covenants or obligations will be read into this Indenture against the Trustee and (ii) 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 Indenture; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein). In case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to any series of Notes, the Trustee shall exercise those rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture with respect to such series of Notes, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.

(c) No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that:

(1) the Trustee will not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

(2) the Trustee will not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith that it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers or for any action it takes or omits to take in accordance with the direction of the Holders of the Notes of any series in accordance with Section 6.05 relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture.

Section 7.02. Certain Rights of Trustee.

(1) In the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may rely, and will be protected in acting or refraining from acting, upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document, but, in the case of any document which is specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee pursuant to any provision

hereof, the Trustee shall examine the document to determine whether it conforms to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein). The Trustee, in its discretion, may make further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it sees fit.

(2) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel conforming to Section 11.05 and the Trustee will not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on the certificate or opinion.

(3) The Trustee may act through its attorneys and agents and will not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent appointed with due care.

(4) The Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders of any series of Notes, unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.

(5) The Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection, and the written advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel will be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon.

(6) No provision of this Indenture will require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of its rights or powers, unless it receives indemnity or security satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense.

(7) The Trustee shall have no duty to inquire as to the performance of the Issuer’s covenants in Article 4 hereof.

(8) The permissive right of the Trustee to act hereunder shall not be construed as a duty.

(9) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, but not limited to, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each Agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder.

(10) The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the performance of its powers and duties hereunder.

(11) The Trustee may at any time request that the Issuer deliver an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the specimen signatures and the names of individuals and/or titles of Officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture, which Officer’s Certificate may be signed by any Person authorized to sign an Officer’s

Certificate, including any Person specified as so authorized in any such certificate previously delivered and not superseded.

(12) None of the Trustee or any Agent shall have any liability or responsibility with respect to, or obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on exchange or transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any exchange or transfer of any interest in any Note of any series (including any transfers of interests in a Global Note between or among Agent Members or beneficial owners) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the terms of this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof, and as long as its actions were not based on negligence or willful misconduct.

(13) The Trustee is not to be charged with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default or knowledge of any cure of any Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes of any series unless either (i) a Responsible Officer of the Trustee or an attorney or agent of the Trustee with direct responsibility for this Indenture has actual knowledge of such Default or Event of Default or such cure, or (ii) written notice of such Default or Event of Default or such cure has been given to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee by the Issuer or any Holder.

(14) The Trustee shall not incur any liability for not performing any act or fulfilling any duty, obligation or responsibility hereunder by reason of any occurrence beyond the control of the Trustee (including but not limited to any act or provision of any present or future law or regulation or governmental authority, epidemic, pandemic, recognized emergency, any act of God or war, civil unrest, local or national disturbance or disaster, any act of terrorism, or the unavailability of the Federal Reserve Bank wire or facsimile or other wire or communication facility).

Section 7.03. Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes of any series and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee. Any Agent may do the same with like rights.

Section 7.04. Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee (i) makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture, any offering materials relating to the Notes, or the Notes, (ii) is not accountable for the Issuer’s use or application of the proceeds from the Notes and (iii) is not responsible for any statement in the Notes other than its certificate of authentication.

Section 7.05. Notice of Default. If any Default with respect to the Notes of any series occurs and is continuing and is known to the Trustee, the Trustee will send notice of the Default to each Holder of Notes of such series within 90 days after it occurs, unless the Default has been cured; provided that, except in the case of a default in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Note of any series, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee or a trust committee of directors of the Trustee in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interest of the Holders.

Section 7.06. Reports by Trustee to Holders. Within 60 days after each May 15, beginning with May 15, 2026, the Trustee will mail to each Holder, as provided in Trust Indenture Act Section 313(c), a brief report dated as of such May 15, if required by Trust Indenture Act Section 313(a), and file such reports with each stock exchange upon which its Notes are listed and with the Commission as required by Trust Indenture Act Section 313(d).

Section 7.07. Compensation and Indemnity.

(a) The Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, will pay the Trustee and the Agents compensation as agreed upon in writing for their respective services. The compensation of the Trustee is not limited by any law on compensation of a Trustee of an express trust. The Issuer will reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee and the Agents, including the reasonable compensation and expenses of the Trustee’s and the Agents’ agents and counsel.

(b) The Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, will indemnify the Trustee and the Agents for, and hold it harmless against, any loss or liability or expense (including, but not limited to, the reasonable fees and expenses of its legal counsel) incurred by it without negligence or willful misconduct on its part arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this Indenture and its duties under this Indenture and the Notes of any series and the exercise of its rights hereunder, including the costs and expenses (legal or otherwise) of enforcing this provision or defending itself against any claim or liability and of complying with any process served upon it or any of its officers in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers, rights or duties under this Indenture and the Notes of any series. The provisions of this Section 7.07(b) shall survive the termination of this Indenture or the earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee.

(c) To secure the Issuer’s payment obligations in this Section, the Trustee will have a lien prior to the Notes of any series on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, in its capacity as Trustee, except money or property held in trust to pay principal of, and interest on particular Notes. Such lien will survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or the resignation or removal of the Trustee.

(d) If the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an Event of Default as specified herein, the expenses (including, but not limited to, the reasonable and documented charges and expenses of its legal counsel in each applicable jurisdiction) and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or similar law now or hereafter in effect.

(e) The obligations of the Issuer to make any payment to the Trustee or an Agent in respect of compensation, reimbursement, and/or indemnification shall be an obligation guaranteed by each Guarantor under the applicable Note Guarantee.

(2) The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes of any series may remove the Trustee from such series of Notes by written notice to the Trustee.

(4) The Issuer may remove the Trustee if: (i) the Trustee is no longer eligible under Section 7.10; (ii) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent; (iii) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or (iv) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting.

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

(b) If the Trustee has been removed by the Holders of Notes of any series, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes of such series may appoint a successor Trustee with the consent of the Issuer. Otherwise, if the Trustee resigns or is removed, or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Issuer will promptly appoint a successor Trustee. If the successor Trustee does not deliver its written acceptance within 30 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Issuer or the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes of the applicable series may at the cost of the Issuer petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

(c) Upon delivery by the successor Trustee of a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuer, (i) the retiring Trustee will, upon payment of all amounts owed to it under this Indenture, transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided for in Section 7.07(b), (ii) the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee will become effective, and (iii) the successor Trustee will have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. Upon request of any successor Trustee, the Issuer will execute any and all instruments for fully and vesting in and confirming to the successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts.

(d) Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section, the Issuer’s obligations under Section 7.07 will continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

(e) The Trustee agrees to give the notices provided for in, and otherwise comply with, Trust Indenture Act Section 310(b).

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 to, another corporation or national banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation or

national banking association without any further act will be the successor Trustee with the same effect as if the successor Trustee had been named as the Trustee in this Indenture.

Section 7.10. Eligibility. This Indenture and the Notes of any series must always have a Trustee that satisfies the requirements of Trust Indenture Act Section 310(a) and has a combined capital and surplus of at least $25,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition.

Section 7.11. Money Held in Trust. The Trustee will not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as it may agree with the Issuer. Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law and except for money held in trust under Article 8.

Article 8
DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE; DEFEASANCE

Section 8.01. Discharge of Liability on Notes; Defeasance.

(a) This Indenture shall be discharged and shall cease to be of further effect (except as to surviving rights and immunities of the Trustee and rights of registration or transfer or exchange of Notes, as expressly provided for in this Indenture) as to all outstanding Notes of any series when:

(i) either (A) all the Notes of such series theretofore authenticated and delivered (except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes which have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money or U.S. Government Obligations have theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Issuer and thereafter repaid to the Issuer or discharged from such trust) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation or (B) all of the Notes of such series not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (1) have become due and payable, (2) will become due and payable at their stated maturity within one year or (3) if redeemable at the option of the Issuer, are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Issuer, and the Issuer has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee funds in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes of such series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes of such series to the date of deposit (in the case of Notes that have become due and payable) or to the date of maturity or redemption, as applicable, together with irrevocable instructions from the Issuer directing the Trustee to apply such funds to the payment thereof at maturity or redemption, as the case may be; provided that upon any redemption that requires the payment of the 2030 Applicable Premium or the 2033 Applicable Premium, as applicable, the amount deposited shall be sufficient for purposes of this Indenture to the extent that an amount is deposited with the Trustee equal to the 2030 Applicable Premium or the 2033 Applicable Premium, as applicable, calculated as of the date of the notice of redemption, with any

deficit as of the date of the redemption only required to be deposited with the Trustee on or prior to the date of the redemption;

(ii) the Issuer and/or the Guarantors have paid all other sums payable under Notes of such series; and

(iii) the Issuer has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent under this Indenture relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to the Notes of such series have been complied with.

(b) Subject to Sections 8.01(c) and 8.02, the Issuer at any time may terminate (i) all of its obligations under the Notes of any series and this Indenture with respect to the Holders of the Notes of such series (“Legal Defeasance Option”), and (ii) its obligations with respect to the Notes of any series under Sections 4.04, 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.08 and 4.09 and the operation of Sections 5.01 and 5.02 for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes of such series, and Sections 6.01(3), 6.01(4), 6.01(5), 6.01(6), 6.01(7) and 6.01(8) (“Covenant Defeasance Option”). The Issuer may exercise their Legal Defeasance Option notwithstanding their prior exercise of their Covenant Defeasance Option. In the event that the Issuer terminates all of its obligations under the Notes of any series and this Indenture (with respect to such Notes) by exercising their Legal Defeasance Option or their Covenant Defeasance Option, the obligations of each Guarantor with respect to its Note Guarantee shall terminate.

If the Issuer exercises its Legal Defeasance Option, payment of the Notes of any series so defeased may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default. If the Issuer exercises its Covenant Defeasance Option, payment of the Notes of any series so defeased may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.01(3), 6.01(4), 6.01(5), 6.01(6), 6.01(7) and 6.01(8).

Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein and upon request of the Issuer, the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of those obligations that the Issuer terminates.

(c) Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, the Issuer’s obligations in Sections 2.03, 2.04, 2.05 and 2.09, and Article 7 and in this Article 8 and the rights and immunities of the Trustee under this Indenture shall survive until the Notes of any series have been paid in full. Thereafter, the Issuer’s obligations in Sections 7.06, 7.07, 8.05 and 8.06 and the rights and immunities of the Trustee under this Indenture shall survive such satisfaction and discharge.

Section 8.02. Conditions to Defeasance.

(a) The Issuer may exercise their Legal Defeasance Option or their Covenant Defeasance Option with respect to the Notes of any series only if:

(i) the Issuer irrevocably deposits in trust with the Trustee cash in U.S. Dollars, U.S. Government Obligations or a combination thereof sufficient to pay the principal of and premium (if any) and interest on the Notes of such series when due at

maturity or redemption, as the case may be; provided that upon any redemption that requires the payment of the 2030 Applicable Premium or the 2033 Applicable Premium, as applicable, the amount deposited shall be sufficient for purposes of this Indenture to the extent that an amount is deposited with the Trustee equal to the 2030 Applicable Premium or the 2033 Applicable Premium, as applicable, calculated as of the date of the notice of redemption, with any deficit as of the date of the redemption only required to be deposited with the Trustee on or prior to the date of the redemption;

(ii) in the case the Issuer irrevocably deposits with the Trustee and U.S. Government Obligations, the Issuer delivers to the Trustee a written certificate or opinion from a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent accountants expressing their view that the payments of principal and interest when due and without reinvestment on the deposited U.S. Government Obligations plus any deposited money without investment will provide cash at such times and in such amounts as will be sufficient to pay principal, premium (including, without limitation, any 2030 Applicable Premium and any 2033 Applicable Premium), if any, and interest when due on all the Notes of such series to maturity or redemption, as the case may be;

(iii) no Default has occurred or is continuing on the date of such deposit;

(iv) the deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or does not constitute a default under this Indenture or any other material agreement or instrument to which the Issuer is a party or by which it is bound;

(v) in the case of the Legal Defeasance Option, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (1) the Issuer has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (2) since the date of this Indenture there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Opinion of Counsel required by the immediately preceding sentence with respect to a legal defeasance need not be delivered if all of the Notes of such series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (x) have become due and payable or (y) will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Issuer;

(vi) such exercise does not impair the contractual right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Holder’s Notes of such series on or after the due dates therefore or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Notes of such series;

(vii) in the case of the Covenant Defeasance Option, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders of the Notes of such series will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred; and

(viii) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to the defeasance and discharge of the Notes of such series to be so defeased and discharged as contemplated by this Article 8 have been complied with.

(b) Before or after a deposit, the Issuer may make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the redemption of such Notes of such series at a future date in accordance with Article 3.

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

Section 8.04. Repayment to Issuer. Each of the Trustee and each Paying Agent shall promptly turn over to the Issuer upon request any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in this Article 8 that, in the written opinion or view of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants delivered to the Trustee (which delivery shall only be required if U.S. Government Obligations have been so deposited), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent discharge or defeasance in accordance with this Article 8.

Subject to any applicable abandoned property law, the Trustee and each Paying Agent shall pay to the Issuer upon written request any money held by them for the payment of principal or interest that remains unclaimed for two years, and, thereafter, Holders entitled to the money must look to the Issuer for payment as general creditors, and the Trustee and each Paying Agent shall have no further liability with respect to such monies.

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

Section 8.06. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or any Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article 8 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes of any series so discharged or defeased shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article 8 until such time as the

Trustee or any Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article 8; provided, however, that, if the Issuer has made any payment of principal of, or interest on, any such Notes because of the reinstatement of their obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or any Paying Agent.

Article 9
AMENDMENTS, SUPPLEMENTS AND WAIVERS

Section 9.01. Amendments Without Consent of Holders. The Issuer and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture or the Notes of any series without notice to or the consent of any Noteholder of such series:

(7) to provide for or confirm the issuance of Additional Notes of such series;

(8) to make any other change that does not materially and adversely affect the rights of any Holder;

(9) to add to the covenants of the Issuer for the benefit of the Holders of any outstanding Notes of such series or to surrender any of the Issuer’s rights or powers under this Indenture; or

(10) to conform any provision of this Indenture or the Notes to the “Description of Notes” in the Offering Circular, as set forth in an Officer’s Certificate.

Section 9.02. Amendments with Consent of Holders.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in Sections 6.02, 6.04 and 6.07 or paragraph (b), the Issuer and the Trustee may amend this Indenture and the Notes of any series with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes of such series, and the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes of any series may waive future compliance by the Issuer with any provision of this Indenture or the Notes of such series.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (a), without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment or waiver may not:

(1) reduce the principal amount of or change the Stated Maturity of any installment of principal of any Note;

(2) reduce the rate of or change the Stated Maturity of any interest payment on any Note;

(3) reduce the amount payable upon the redemption of any Note or, in respect of an optional redemption, the times at which any Note may be redeemed or, once notice of redemption has been given, the time at which such Note must thereupon be redeemed (except as otherwise permitted by this Indenture);

(4) make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the Note;

(5) impair the contractual right of any Holder of Notes to receive any principal payment or interest payment on such Holder’s Notes, on or after the Stated Maturity thereof, or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment;

(6) make any change in the percentage of the principal amount of the Notes of any series required for amendments or waivers;

(7) modify or change any provision of this Indenture affecting the ranking of the Notes of any series in contractual right of payment in a manner adverse to the Holders of the Notes of such series; or

(8) amend or waive any provision of this Indenture with respect to the Issuer’s obligation to redeem the Notes through a Special Mandatory Redemption in a manner that would materially adversely affect the Holders of the Notes.

(c) It is not necessary for Noteholders to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but is sufficient if their consent approves the substance thereof.

(d) An amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section will become effective on receipt by the Trustee of written consents from the Holders of the requisite percentage in principal amount of the outstanding Notes of any series. After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section becomes effective, the Issuer will, at the cost and expense of the

Issuer, send to the Holders affected thereby a written notice prepared by the Issuer briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. The Issuer will, at the cost and expense of the Issuer, send supplemental indentures to Holders upon request. Any failure of the Issuer to send such notice, or any defect therein, will not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture or waiver.

Section 9.03. Effect of Consent. (a) After an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, it will bind every Holder unless it is of the type requiring the consent of each Holder affected. If the amendment, supplement or waiver is of the type requiring the consent of each Holder affected, the amendment, supplement or waiver will bind each Holder that has consented to it and every subsequent Holder of a Note that evidences the same debt as the Note of the consenting Holder.

(b) If an amendment, supplement or waiver changes the terms of a Note, the Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, require the Holder to deliver it to the Trustee so that the Trustee may place an appropriate notation of the changed terms on the Note and return it to the Holder, or exchange it for a new Note that reflects the changed terms. The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, also place an appropriate notation on any Note thereafter authenticated. However, the effectiveness of the amendment, supplement or waiver is not affected by any failure to annotate or exchange Notes in this fashion.

Article 10
GUARANTEES

Section 10.01. The Guarantees. Subject to the provisions of this Article, each Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, jointly and severally, on an unsecured basis, the full and punctual payment (whether at Stated Maturity, upon redemption, purchase pursuant to a Change of Control Offer or acceleration, or otherwise) of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, and all other amounts payable under, each Note, and the full and punctual payment of all other amounts payable by the Issuer under this Indenture. Upon failure by the Issuer to pay punctually any such amount, each Guarantor shall forthwith on demand pay the amount not so paid at the place and in the manner specified in this Indenture.

Section 10.02. Guarantee Unconditional. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, will not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by:

(1) any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or release in respect of any obligation of the Issuer under this Indenture or any Note, by operation of law or otherwise;

(2) any modification or amendment of or supplement to this Indenture or any Note;

(3) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of the Issuer, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting the Issuer or its assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of the Issuer contained in this Indenture or any Note;

(4) the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights which the Guarantor may have at any time against the Issuer, the Trustee or any other Person, whether in connection with this Indenture or any unrelated transactions, provided that nothing herein prevents the assertion of any such claim by separate suit or compulsory counterclaim;

(5) any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against the Issuer for any reason of this Indenture or any Note, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by the Issuer of the principal of or interest on any Note or any other amount payable by the Issuer under this Indenture; or

(6) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Issuer, the Trustee or any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever which might, but for the provisions of this paragraph, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of or defense to such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder.

Section 10.03. Discharge; Reinstatement. Each Guarantor’s obligations hereunder will remain in full force and effect until the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes and all other amounts payable by the Issuer under this Indenture have been paid in full. If at any time any payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note or any other amount payable by the Issuer under this Indenture is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer or otherwise, each Guarantor’s obligations hereunder with respect to such payment will be reinstated as though such payment had been due but not made at such time.

Section 10.04. Waiver by the Guarantors. Each Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against the Issuer or any other Person.

Section 10.05. Subrogation and Contribution. Upon making any payment with respect to any obligation of the Issuer under this Article, the Guarantor making such payment will be subrogated to the rights of the payee against the Issuer with respect to such obligation, provided that the Guarantor may not enforce either any right of subrogation, or any right to receive payment in the nature of contribution, or otherwise, from any other Guarantor, with respect to such payment so long as any amount payable by the Issuer hereunder or under the Notes remains unpaid.

Section 10.06. Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by the Issuer under this Indenture or the Notes is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of this Indenture are nonetheless payable by the Guarantors hereunder forthwith on demand by the Trustee or the Holders.

Section 10.07. Limitation on Amount of Guarantee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article, each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Note Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent conveyance under applicable fraudulent conveyance provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provision of state law. To effectuate that intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of each Guarantor under its Note Guarantee are limited to the maximum amount that would not render the Guarantor’s obligations subject to avoidance under applicable fraudulent conveyance provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provision of state law.

Section 10.08. Execution and Delivery of Guarantee. The execution by each Guarantor of this Indenture (or a supplemental indenture in the form of Exhibit B) evidences the Note Guarantee of such Guarantor, whether or not the person signing as an officer of the Guarantor still holds that office at the time of authentication of any Note. The delivery of any Note by the Trustee after authentication constitutes due delivery of the Note Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of each Guarantor.

Section 10.09. Release of Guarantee. The Note Guarantee of a Guarantor will automatically be released upon any of the following:

(1) a sale, distribution or other disposition (including by way of consolidation or merger) of the Guarantor or the sale or disposition of all or substantially all the assets of the Guarantor (other than to the Issuer or a Subsidiary) otherwise not prohibited by this Indenture (including any sale, disposition, exchange or other transfer following which the applicable Guarantor is no longer a Subsidiary);

(2) defeasance or discharge of the Notes, pursuant to Article 8;

(3) (i) with respect to any of the Rocket Guarantors only, upon release or discharge of the guarantee by such Rocket Guarantor of the Rocket Mortgage Notes or the full and final payment and performance of all obligations of the applicable issuer under the Rocket Mortgage Notes; (ii) with respect to Redfin only, upon defeasance or discharge of the Redfin Convertible Notes or the full and final payment and performance of all obligations of the applicable issuer under the Redfin Convertible Notes; and (iii) with respect to any of the Mr. Cooper Guarantors only, upon release or discharge of the guarantee by such Mr. Cooper Guarantor of the Mr. Cooper Notes or the full and final payment and performance of all obligations of the applicable issuer under the Mr. Cooper Notes; or

(4) upon the first date following the Issue Date on which a Covenant Suspension Event has occurred, regardless of whether the conditions set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of the definition of Covenant Suspension Event continue to be satisfied.

Upon delivery by the Issuer to the Trustee of an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the foregoing effect, the Trustee will execute any documents reasonably requested by the Issuer in writing in order to evidence the release of the Guarantor from its obligations under its Note Guarantee.

The fact and date of the execution of the instrument, or the authority of the person executing it, may be proved in any manner that the Trustee deems sufficient.

(2) The Trustee may make reasonable rules for action by or at a meeting of Holders, which will be binding on all the Holders.

(b) Any act by the Holder of any Note binds that Holder and every subsequent Holder of a Note that evidences the same debt as the Note of the acting Holder, even if no notation thereof appears on the Note. Subject to paragraph (c), a Holder may revoke an act as to its Notes, but only if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date the amendment or waiver or other consequence of the act becomes effective.

(c) The Issuer may, but is not obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to act with respect to any amendment or waiver or in any other regard, except that during the continuance of an Event of Default, only the Trustee may set a record date as to notices of default, any declaration or acceleration or any other remedies or other consequences of the Event of Default.

Any Executed Documentation accepted, executed or agreed to in conformity with such laws, rules and regulations will be binding on all parties hereto to the same extent as if it were physically executed and each party hereby consents to the use of any third party electronic signature capture service providers as may be reasonably chosen by a signatory hereto or thereto. When the Trustee acts on any Executed Documentation sent by electronic transmission, the Trustee will not be responsible or liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from its reliance upon and compliance with such Executed Documentation, notwithstanding that such Executed Documentation (a) may not be an authorized or authentic communication of the party involved or in the form such party sent or intended to send (whether due to fraud, distortion or otherwise) or (b) may conflict with, or be inconsistent with, a subsequent written instruction or communication; it being understood and agreed that the Trustee shall conclusively presume that Executed Documentation that purports to have been sent by an authorized officer of a Person has been sent by an authorized officer of such Person. The party providing Executed Documentation through electronic transmission or otherwise with electronic signatures agrees to assume all risks arising out of such electronic methods, including, without limitation, the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized instructions and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties.

Section 11.11. Separability. In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Notes is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions will not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Accordingly, each of the parties agree to provide to the Trustee, upon their request from time to time such identifying information and documentation as may be available for such party in order to enable the Trustee to comply with Applicable Law.

Section 11.15. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE ISSUER, THE GUARANTORS, THE HOLDERS AND THE TRUSTEE HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE, THE NOTES OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

We agree for the benefit of the Issuer, on our own behalf and on behalf of each account for which we are acting, that such Notes may be offered, sold, pledged or otherwise transferred only in accordance with the Securities Act and any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States and only (a) to the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries, (b) pursuant to a registration statement which has become effective under the Securities Act, (c) to a qualified institutional buyer in compliance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act, (d) in an offshore transaction in compliance with Rule 904 of Regulation S under the Securities Act, (e) in a principal amount of not less than $250,000, to an Institutional Accredited Investor that, prior to such transfer, delivers to the Trustee a duly completed and signed certificate (the form of which may be obtained from the Trustee) relating to the restrictions on transfer of the Notes or (f) pursuant to an exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

We acknowledge that no representation is made as to the availability of any Rule 144 exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

We understand that the Trustee will not be required to accept for registration of transfer any Notes acquired by us, except upon presentation of evidence satisfactory to the Issuer and the Trustee that the foregoing restrictions on transfer have been complied with. We further understand that the Notes acquired by us will be in the form of definitive physical certificates and that such certificates will bear a legend reflecting the substance of the preceding paragraph.
