(v) The Issuer shall not be required to register the transfer into its register kept at its registered office of any Definitive Registered Notes: (A) for a period of 15 calendar days prior to any date fixed for the redemption of the Notes under Section 3.03; (B) for a period of 15 calendar days immediately prior to the date fixed for selection of Notes to be redeemed in part; (C) for a period of 15 calendar days prior to the record date with respect to any interest payment date; or (D) which the registered Holder of Notes has tendered (and not withdrawn) for repurchase in connection with a Change of Control Offer or an Asset Sale Offer. Any such transfer will be made without charge to the Holder, other than any taxes, duties and governmental charges payable in connection with such transfer.

(vi) The Trustee, any Agent and the Issuer may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of, interest, and premium and Additional Amounts, if any, on such Notes and for all other purposes, and none of the Trustee, any Agent or the Issuer shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

(vii) All certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to be submitted to the Issuer, the Trustee or the Registrar pursuant to this Section 2.06 to effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted initially by facsimile with originals to be delivered promptly thereafter to the Trustee.

(a) If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Registrar, the Trustee or the Issuer and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate or cause the Authenticating Agent to authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are met. If required by the Trustee or the Issuer, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Issuer to protect the Issuer, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuer may charge the Holder for its expenses in replacing a Note, including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel.

(b) Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Issuer and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

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

The Notes outstanding at any time shall be the Notes that fall within the definition of “outstanding” contained in Section 1.01.

(a) Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate or cause the Authenticating Agent to authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of definitive Notes but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as such shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare and the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes.

(b) Holders of temporary Notes shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture.

The Issuer at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar, each Paying Agent and any Transfer Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee or, at the direction of the Trustee, the Registrar or the Paying Agent (other than the Issuer or a Subsidiary) and no one else shall cancel Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall destroy canceled Notes (subject to the record retention requirement of the U.S. Exchange Act). Certification of the destruction of all canceled Notes shall be delivered to the Issuer following a written request from the Issuer. The Issuer may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. The Issuer undertakes to promptly inform the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (as long as the Notes are admitted to trading on the Euro MTF Market and listed on the official list of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange) on any such cancellation.

If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it shall, unless the Trustee fixes another record date pursuant to Section 6.10, pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to

the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, which special record date shall be the fifteenth day next preceding the date fixed by the Issuer, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee as soon as practicable in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment. The Issuer shall fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date, provided that no such special record date shall be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Issuer (or, upon the written request of the Issuer, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuer) shall deliver to the Holders in accordance with Section 14.01 a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid. The Issuer undertakes to promptly inform the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (as long as the Notes are admitted to trading on the Euro MTF Market and listed on the official list of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange) on any such cancellation.

(a) Subject to compliance with Section 4.09, the Issuer may from time to time issue Additional Notes ranking pari passu with each of the Dollar Notes and the Euro Notes, respectively, and with the same terms as to status, redemption and otherwise as such Notes (save for payment of interest accruing prior to the issue date of such Additional Notes or for the first payment of interest following the issue date of such Additional Notes). The Additional Notes of each series will be consolidated and treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture, including, without limitation, waivers, amendments, redemptions, and offers to purchase.

(b) Whenever it is proposed to create and issue any Additional Notes, the Issuer shall give to the Trustee not less than 5 Business Days’ notice in writing of its intention so to do stating the amount of Additional Notes proposed to be created and issued.

The Issuer in issuing the Notes may use a “CUSIP”, “ISIN” or “Common Code” number and, if so, such CUSIP, ISIN or Common Code number shall be included in notices of redemption or exchange as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP, ISIN or Common Code number printed in the notice or on the Notes, and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes.

The Issuer will promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the CUSIP, ISIN or Common Code number.

If the Issuer elects to redeem Notes of any series pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of Section 3.07, it shall deliver to the Trustee (with a copy to the Paying Agent) in accordance with Section 14.01, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, or more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if such redemption is in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Articles 8 or 13, an Officer’s Certificate setting forth:

(v) the CUSIP, ISIN and or Common Code numbers of the Notes of such series, as applicable.

If less than all of the Dollar Notes or the Euro Notes, as the case may be, are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee will select the Notes for redemption on a pro rata basis unless otherwise required by law or applicable depositary or stock exchange requirements. The Trustee will not be liable for selections made by it in accordance with this Section 3.02.

No Euro Notes of €100,000 or less or Dollar Notes of $200,000 or less can be redeemed in part. If the Issuer elects to redeem the Notes, it shall deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee (copying the Paying Agent) notifying the Trustee and the Paying Agent of the proposed redemption date, the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and the provisions on which the Issuer relies to redeem. Notices of redemption will be mailed by first class mail at least 30 but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of Notes to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture. Any redemption and notice of redemption may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent.

Notices of purchase or redemption shall be given to each Holder pursuant to Section 14.01.

If any Dollar Note or Euro Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to that Note will state the portion of the principal amount of that Note that is to be redeemed. In the case of certified Notes, a new Dollar Note or Euro Note, as the case may be, in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original Dollar Note or the Euro Note, as applicable, will be issued in the name of the Holder of Notes upon cancellation of the original Note, as applicable. Notes called for redemption become due on the date fixed for redemption. On and after the redemption date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption.

In relation to Definitive Registered Notes, a new Note in principal amount equal to the unpurchased or unredeemed portion of any Note purchased or redeemed in part will be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Note. On or after any purchase or redemption date, unless the Issuer defaults in payment of the purchase or redemption price, interest shall cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof tendered for purchase or called for redemption.

(a) At least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Issuer shall deliver, pursuant to Section 14.01, a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed (and a copy of such notice of redemption shall be delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 14.01), except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Articles 8 or 13. For Notes which are represented by global certificates held on behalf of Euroclear, Clearstream or DTC, notices may be given by delivery of the relevant notices to Euroclear or Clearstream or DTC for communication to entitled account holders in substitution for the aforesaid mailing. So long as any Notes are listed on the Official List of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and admitted to trading on the Euro MTF Market and the rules and regulations of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange so require, any such notice to the Holders of the relevant Notes shall also be published in a newspaper having a general circulation in Luxembourg

(which is expected to be the Luxemburger Wort) or, to the extent permitted by such rules, posted on the official website of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (www.bourse.lu) and, in connection with any redemption, the Issuer will forthwith notify the Luxembourg Stock Exchange of any change in the principal amount of Notes outstanding. Any redemption and notice of redemption may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent.

(b) The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed and corresponding CUSIP, ISIN or Common Code numbers, as applicable, and shall state:

(ii) the redemption price and the amount of accrued interest, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any to be paid;

(iii) if any Global Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Global Note to be redeemed and, that after the redemption date upon surrender of such Global Note, the principal amount thereof will be decreased by the portion thereof redeemed pursuant thereto;

(iv) if any Definitive Registered Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Note to be redeemed, and that, after the redemption date, upon surrender of such Note, a new Definitive Registered Note or Definitive Registered Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the Definitive Registered Note;

(v) the name and address of the Paying Agent(s) to which the Notes are to be surrendered for redemption;

(vi) that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the relevant Paying Agent to collect the redemption price, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any;

(vii) that, unless the Issuer defaults in making such redemption payment, interest, and Additional Amounts, if any, on Notes called for redemption cease to accrue on and after the redemption date;

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

(ix) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP, ISIN or Common Code numbers, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes.

(c) At the Issuer’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Issuer’s name and at its expense in accordance with Section 14.01; provided, however, that the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least 45 days prior to the redemption date, an Officer’s Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in Section 3.03(b).

Once notice of redemption is given in accordance with Section 3.03 and Section 14.01, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the redemption date at the redemption price stated in the notice. A notice of redemption may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent. On and after a redemption date, interest shall cease to accrue on such Notes or portion of them called for redemption.

(a) On the Business Day prior to the purchase or redemption date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Principal Paying Agent (or, if requested by the Trustee, the Trustee) money in U.S. Dollars with respect to the Dollar Notes or euro with respect to the Euro Notes sufficient to pay the redemption price of, and accrued interest, premium and Additional Amounts (if any) on, all Notes to be redeemed on that date. The Trustee or Principal Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Issuer any money deposited with the Trustee or Principal Paying Agent, as applicable, by the Issuer in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption price of, and accrued interest on, and any Additional Amounts with respect to, all Notes to be purchased or redeemed.

(b) If the Issuer complies with the provisions of Section 3.05(a), on and after the redemption date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption. If a Note is redeemed on or after a record date for the payment of interest but on or prior to the related interest payment date, then any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such record date. If any Note called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender for redemption because of the failure of the Issuer to comply with the Section 3.05(a), interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest not so paid, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and Section 4.01.

Upon surrender of a Definitive Registered Note that is redeemed in part, the Issuer shall issue and, upon the Issuer’s written request, the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate for (and in the name of) the Holder at the expense of the Issuer a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Note surrendered; provided that any Dollar Definitive Registered Note shall be in a principal amount of $200,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 above $200,000 and any Euro Definitive Registered Note shall be in a principal amount of €100,000 or an integral multiple of €1,000 above €100,000.

(a) At any time prior to April 23, 2017, the Issuer may, at its option, on any one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes (including any Additional Notes) issued under this Indenture at a redemption price of 107.000% of the principal amount for Euro Notes and at a redemption price of 107.375% of the principal amount for Dollar Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, to such redemption date, with the net cash proceeds of a Public Equity Offering of common stock or ordinary shares of (1) Wind or (2) any Parent Holdco of Wind to the extent the proceeds from such Public Equity Offering are contributed to Wind’s common equity capital or are paid to Wind as consideration for the issuance of common stock or ordinary shares of Wind; provided that:

(i) at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of Euro Notes and at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of the Dollar Notes originally issued under this Indenture (excluding Notes held by the Issuer, Wind and their respective Affiliates) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption; and

(ii) the redemption occurs within 90 days of the date of the closing of the relevant Public Equity Offering.

(b) At any time prior to April 23, 2017, the Issuer may at its option also redeem all or a part of the Euro Notes and/or the Dollar Notes, as the case may be, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice pursuant to Section 3.03 and Section 14.01 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium (calculated as of a

date no more than three Business Days prior to the date of the relevant redemption notice) as of, and accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, to the date of redemption (subject to the rights of Holders of the Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date).

(c) Except pursuant to subsections (a) and (b) of this Section 3.07 or as set forth in Section 3.08 or Section 3.09, the Notes will not be redeemable at the Issuer’s option prior to April 23, 2017. On or after April 23, 2017, the Issuer may at its option redeem all or a part of the Euro Notes and/or the Dollar Notes, as the case may be, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice delivered to each Holder pursuant to Section 3.03 and Section 14.01 at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest and all Additional Amounts, if any, then due on the Notes redeemed, to the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on April 23 of the years indicated below, subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date:

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

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

(f) Any redemption and notice of redemption may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent.

(a) To the extent permitted by Wind’s Credit Agreement, the Issuer may on one occasion redeem up to €300.0 million of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes issued under the Indenture (in any combination of Euro Notes and/or Dollar Notes), upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at a redemption price of 103.00% of the principal amount of the relevant Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts (if any) then due to the redemption date on the Notes redeemed, with the Net Proceeds (including if received by a reimbursement of an Intercompany Loan from Wind) from the sale of any Towers Infrastructure assets subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date.

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

(c) Any redemption and notice of redemption may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent.

The Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole but not in part, at its discretion at any time upon giving not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice of redemption to the Holders thereof pursuant to Section 3.03 and Section 14.01, at a redemption price equal to the principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest to the date fixed by the Issuer for redemption (a “Tax Redemption Date”) and all Additional Amounts (if any) then due and which will become due on

the Tax Redemption Date as a result of the redemption or otherwise (subject to the right of Holders of the Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date and Additional Amounts (if any) in respect thereof), if on the next date on which any amount would be payable in respect of the Notes, the Issuer has or would be required to pay Additional Amounts, and the Issuer cannot avoid any such payment obligation by taking reasonable measures available to it, as a result of:

(i) any change in, or amendment to, the laws or treaties (or any regulations, or rulings promulgated thereunder) of a relevant Tax Jurisdiction affecting taxation which change or amendment has not been publicly announced as formally proposed before and which becomes effective on or after the date of this Indenture (or, if the relevant Tax Jurisdiction has been added since the date of this Indenture, the date on which that relevant Tax Jurisdiction became a Tax Jurisdiction under this Indenture); or

(ii) any change in, or amendment to, the existing official position regarding the application, administration or interpretation of such laws, treaties, regulations or rulings (including a holding, judgment or order by a court of competent jurisdiction or a change in published administrative practice), which change, amendment, application or interpretation has not been publicly announced as formally proposed before and becomes effective on or after the date of this Indenture (or, if the relevant Tax Jurisdiction has been added since the date of this Indenture, the date on which that relevant Tax Jurisdiction became a Tax Jurisdiction under this Indenture).

The Issuer will not give any such notice of redemption earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer would be obligated to make such payment or withholding if a payment in respect of the Notes were then due. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer may not redeem the Notes under this provision if the relevant Tax Jurisdiction became a Tax Jurisdiction after the date of this Indenture and the Issuer is obligated to pay any Additional Amounts as a result of a change in, or an amendment to, the laws or treaties (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder), or any change in or amendment to, any official position regarding the application, administration or interpretation of such laws, treaties, regulations or rulings, of that relevant current Tax Jurisdiction which, at the time such Tax Jurisdiction became a Tax Jurisdiction under this Indenture, was publicly announced as formally proposed. Prior to the publication or, where relevant, mailing of any notice of redemption of the Notes pursuant to the foregoing and in accordance with Section 3.03, the Issuer will deliver to the Trustee an opinion of internationally recognized tax counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, to the effect that there has been such change or amendment and otherwise in compliance with Section 14.04. In addition, before the Issuer publishes or mails notice of redemption of the Notes pursuant to the foregoing and in accordance with Section 3.03, it will deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that it cannot avoid its obligation to pay Additional Amounts by the Issuer taking reasonable measures available to it. The Trustee will accept such Officer’s Certificate and opinion as sufficient evidence of the satisfaction of the conditions precedent as described above, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on the Holders. For the avoidance of doubt, the implementation of European Council Directive 2003/48/EC or any other directive implementing the conclusions of the ECOFIN Council meeting of 26 and 27 November 2000 on the taxation of savings income or any law implementing, or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, such directive will not be a change or amendment for such purposes.

The Issuer shall not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.

(a) In the event that, pursuant to Section 4.10, the Issuer is required to commence an offer to all Holders to purchase Notes (an “Asset Sale Offer”), it will follow the procedures specified in this Section 3.11.

(b) The Issuer (or Wind on the Issuer’s behalf) will commence each Asset Sale Offer within 25 days after the date on which the Excess Proceeds exceed €35.0 million by delivering the notice required pursuant to Section 3.11(d). The Asset Sale Offer shall remain open for a period of 20 Business Days following its commencement and no longer, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Offer Period”). No later than five Business Days after the termination of the Offer Period (the “Purchase Date”), the Issuer shall purchase the principal amount of Notes required to be purchased pursuant to Section 4.10 (the “Offer Amount”) or, if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered in response to the Asset Sale Offer. Payment for any Notes so purchased shall be made in the same manner as interest payments are made.

(c) If the Purchase Date is on or after a record date for the payment of interest and on or before the related payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no interest shall be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer.

(d) Upon the commencement of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer shall deliver a notice to the Trustee and each of the Holders pursuant to Section 14.01. The notice shall contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. The Asset Sale Offer shall be made to all Holders. The notice, which shall govern the terms of the Asset Sale Offer, shall state:

(i) that the Asset Sale Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3.11 and the length of time the Asset Sale Offer shall remain open;

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

(iv) that, unless the Issuer defaults in making such payment, any Note accepted for payment pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer shall cease to accrue interest after the Purchase Date;

(v) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer may elect to have Notes purchased in integral multiples of $1,000 or €1,000 only, as the case may be (provided that Dollar Notes of $200,000 or less or Euro Notes of €100,000 or less may only be redeemed in whole and not in part);

(vi) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to any Asset Sale Offer shall be required to surrender the Note, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the Note completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer through the facilities of the Depositary, to the account of the Issuer, or the Paying Agent specified in the notice at least one Business Day before the Purchase Date;

(vii) that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Issuer, the depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, not later than the expiration of the Offer Period, a facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note the Holder delivered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased;

(viii) that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other Pari Passu Indebtedness surrendered by Holders exceeds the Offer Amount, the Issuer will select the Notes and other Pari Passu Indebtedness to be purchased as provided in Section 4.10 (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Issuer so that only Notes in denominations of` $1,000 or €1,000, or integral multiples thereof, as the case may be, will be purchased (provided that Dollar Notes of $200,000 or less or Euro Notes of €100,000 or less may only be redeemed in whole and not in part)); and

(ix) that Holders whose Definitive Registered Notes were purchased only in part shall be issued new Definitive Registered Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes.

(e) On or before the Purchase Date, the Issuer shall, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Offer Amount of Notes or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer, or if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered, and shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Issuer in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.11. The Paying Agent shall promptly (but in any case not later than five days after the Purchase Date) deliver to each tendering Holder in the manner specified in the Notes an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Issuer for purchase. In connection with any purchase of Global Notes pursuant hereto, the Trustee shall endorse such Global Notes to reflect the decrease in principal amount of such Global Note resulting from such purchase. In connection with any partial purchase of Definitive Registered Notes, the Issuer shall promptly issue a new Definitive Registered Note, and the Trustee, upon written request from the Issuer shall authenticate and mail or deliver such new Definitive Registered Note to the tendering Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Definitive Registered Note surrendered. Any Note tendered but not accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Issuer to the Holder thereof. The Issuer shall publicly announce and inform the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (for as long as the Notes (if any) are admitted to trading on the Euro MTF Market and listed on the official listing of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange) of the results of the Asset Sale Offer on the Purchase Date.

(f) Other than as specifically provided in this Section 3.11, any purchase pursuant to this Section 3.11 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06.

The Issuer shall pay or cause to be paid the principal of, interest and premium and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes on the dates and in the manner provided in the Notes. Principal, interest, premium and Additional Amounts, if any, shall be considered paid on the date due if the Principal Paying Agent, receives such payment in the manner provided in the Notes. Principal, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and interest shall be considered paid on the date due if the Issuer holds, in an account with the Paying Agent, if other than the Issuer or a Subsidiary thereof, on the Business Day prior to the due date, money deposited by the Issuer in immediately available funds and designated for and sufficient to pay all principal, premium, Additional Amounts, if any, and interest then due.

On one business day prior to the due date of the principal, premium, if any, and interest on any Notes, the Issuer shall deposit in an account with the Principal Paying Agent money in immediately available funds sufficient to pay such principal, premium, if any, and interest so becoming due on the due date for payment under the Notes and subject to the receipt of such money, the Principal Paying Agent shall make payment on the Notes in accordance with this Indenture. Principal of, interest, premium and Additional Amounts, if any, on Global Notes will be payable at

the corporate trust office or agency of the Principal Paying Agent maintained in the City of London for such purposes, at the corporate trust office or agency of the Paying Agent maintained in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York, for such purposes and, for as long as any Notes are admitted to trading on the Euro MTF Market and listed on the official list of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange, at the office of the Paying Agent appointed in Luxembourg. All payments on the Global Notes will be made by transfer of immediately available funds to an account of the Holder of the Global Notes in accordance with instructions given by that Holder.

Principal of, interest, premium and Additional Amounts, if any, on any Definitive Registered Notes will be payable at the corporate trust office or agency of any Paying Agent in any location required to be maintained for such purposes pursuant to Section 2.03. In addition, interest on Definitive Registered Notes may be paid by check mailed to the person entitled thereto as shown on the Register for such Definitive Registered Notes.

The Issuer shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal at the rate equal to 1% per annum in excess of the then applicable interest rate on the Notes to the extent lawful. The Issuer shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace period) at the same rate to the extent lawful.

The Issuer shall maintain the offices and agencies specified in Section 2.03. The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Issuer shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the corporate trust office of the Trustee.

The Issuer may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Issuer of its obligation to maintain an office or agency as required by Section 2.03. The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

(xi) the incurrence by Wind of intercompany Indebtedness in the form of a loan from the Parent within 15 Credit Agreement Business Days of Wind becoming aware of, and for the purpose of curing, a breach of the financial covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement; provided that (1) the cure of such breach is permitted in such manner under the terms of the Credit Agreement; (2) the event of default arising from such breach under the relevant agreement will not be continuing after the loan has been made to Wind; (3) such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated in right of payment to any Intercompany Loan, the Notes and any Note Guarantee, may not be enforceable while the Notes or any Note Guarantee remains outstanding and is automatically cancelled upon any Default and (4) is, within 45 days after the date on which the consolidated quarterly financial statements of Wind to which the financial covenants relate were provided to the facility or administrative agent under the Credit Agreement, either converted into shares of common stock or ordinary shares of Wind or refinanced out of the proceeds from the issuance of shares of common stock or ordinary shares of Wind, in either case, without any cash payment from the Issuer, Wind or any of Wind’s other Restricted Subsidiaries;

(xii) the incurrence by the Issuer, Wind or any of Wind’s other Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness arising from agreements of the Issuer, Wind or any other Restricted Subsidiary of Wind providing for indemnification, earn-out, adjustment of purchase price or similar obligations, in each case, incurred or assumed in connection with the acquisition or disposition of any business, assets or Capital Stock of a Subsidiary, other than, for the avoidance of doubt, guarantees of Indebtedness of the Subsidiary disposed of, or incurred or assumed by any Person acquiring all or any portion of such business, assets or Capital Stock for the purpose of financing such acquisition; provided that the maximum liability of the Issuer, Wind and Wind’s other Restricted Subsidiaries in respect of all such Indebtedness shall at no time exceed the gross proceeds, including the Fair Market Value of non-cash proceeds (measured at the time received and without giving effect to any subsequent changes in value), actually received by the Issuer, Wind and Wind’s other Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with such disposition;

(xiii) customer deposits and advance payments received from customers for goods and services purchased in the ordinary course of business;

(xiv) Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary of Wind that is not a Guarantor or the Issuer existing at the time such Restricted Subsidiary is merged, consolidated, amalgamated or otherwise combined with or into or becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of Wind (but, for the avoidance of doubt, excluding any Indebtedness incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such Restricted Subsidiary merging, consolidating, amalgamating or otherwise combining with or into, or becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of, Wind); provided, however, with respect to this Section 4.09(b)(xiv), that at the time of the acquisition or other transaction pursuant to which such Indebtedness was deemed to be incurred (A) Wind would have been able to incur €1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.09(a) after giving effect to the incurrence of such Indebtedness pursuant to this Section 4.09(b)(xiv); or (B) the Consolidated Leverage Ratio of Wind would not be greater than it was immediately prior to giving effect to such acquisition or other transaction;

(xv) Indebtedness of the Issuer, Wind and Wind’s other Restricted Subsidiaries owed to their employees in connection with loan stock issued under employee stock purchase plans (including of a Parent Holdco) so long as the aggregate principal amount of all such Indebtedness shall not exceed €5.0 million at any time outstanding;

(xvi) the incurrence by the Issuer, Wind or any of Wind’s other Restricted Subsidiaries of additional Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) in an aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) at any time outstanding not to exceed the greater of (i) €200.0 million and (ii) 1.5% of Consolidated Total Assets; provided that no more than €25.0 million of which at any time outstanding may be incurred by Restricted Subsidiaries of Wind that are not a Guarantor or the Issuer;

(xvii) Indebtedness Incurred by a Receivables Subsidiary in a Qualified Receivables Financing; and

(xviii) Indebtedness of the Issuer, Wind or any of Wind’s other Restricted Subsidiaries in an aggregate outstanding principal amount which, when taken together with any Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof and the principal amount of all other Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this Section 4.09(b)(xviii) and then outstanding, will not exceed 100% of the Net Proceeds received by Wind from the issuance or sale (other than to a Restricted Subsidiary of Wind) of its Subordinated Shareholder Debt or Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock, an Excluded Contribution or an Excluded Amount) or otherwise contributed to the equity (other than through the issuance of Disqualified Stock, Excluded Amounts, or an Excluded Contribution) of Wind, in each case, subsequent to the Issue Date; provided, however, that (i) any such Net Proceeds that are so received or contributed shall be excluded for purposes of making Restricted Payments under Section 4.07(a) and Section 4.07(b)(ii) and (ix) to the extent the Issuer, Wind and Wind’s other Restricted Subsidiaries incur Indebtedness in reliance thereon and (ii) any Net Proceeds that are so received or contributed shall be excluded for purposes of incurring Indebtedness pursuant to this Section 4.09(b)(xviii) to the extent the Issuer, Wind or any of Wind’s other Restricted Subsidiaries makes a Restricted Payment under Section 4.07(a) and Section 4.07(b)(ii) and (ix) in reliance thereon.

(c) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.09, in the event that an item of proposed Indebtedness may only be incurred by a Guarantor, such Indebtedness may be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of Wind that is not a Guarantor so long as such Restricted Subsidiary either becomes a Guarantor or is merged with and into a Guarantor, in either case, within 90 days of such incurrence of Indebtedness.

(d) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.09, in the event that an item of proposed Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (i) through (xvi) of Section 4.09(b), or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.09(a), the Issuer and Wind will be permitted to classify all or any portion of such item of Indebtedness on the date of its incurrence in any manner that complies with this Section 4.09 and, other than with respect to Indebtedness incurred under clause (i) of the definition of Permitted Debt in Section 4.09(b), to reclassify from time to time all or any portion of such item of Indebtedness in any manner that then complies with this Section 4.09. Indebtedness under Credit Facilities outstanding on the date on which Notes are first issued and authenticated under this Indenture will initially be deemed to have been incurred on such date in reliance on the exception provided by clause (i) of the definition of Permitted Debt and may not be reclassified. The accrual of interest, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, the reclassification of Preferred Stock as Indebtedness due to a change in accounting principles, and the payment of dividends on Disqualified Stock in the form of additional shares of the same class of Disqualified Stock will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness or an issuance of Disqualified Stock for purposes of this Section 4.09; provided, in each such case, that the amount of any such accrual, accretion or payment is included in Fixed Charges of Wind as accrued. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.09, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Issuer, Wind or any other Restricted Subsidiary of Wind may incur pursuant to this Section 4.09 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates or currency values.

(e) The amount of any Indebtedness outstanding as of any date will be (without double counting):

(i) the accreted value of the Indebtedness, in the case of any Indebtedness issued with original issue discount;

(ii) the principal amount of the Indebtedness, in the case of any other Indebtedness; and

(iii) in respect of Indebtedness of another Person secured by a Lien on the assets of the specified Person, the lesser of:

provided that for purposes of determining Consolidated Leverage or Consolidated Senior Secured Leverage for purposes of clauses (i) and (ii), such amount of Indebtedness outstanding shall be equal to the amount of such Indebtedness that appears as a liability on the consolidated balance sheet prepared in accordance with IFRS of Wind and its Restricted Subsidiaries after adjustment for financial assets and financial liabilities.

(f) For purposes of determining compliance with any euro-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness, the Euro Equivalent of the principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in another currency will be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first committed, in the case of Indebtedness incurred under a revolving credit facility; provided that (1) if such Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a currency other than euros, and such refinancing would cause the applicable euro-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such euro-denominated restriction will be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced; (2) notwithstanding clause (3) below, for the purposes of determining Consolidated Leverage or Consolidated Senior Secured Leverage, the Euro Equivalent of the principal amount of any such Indebtedness will be calculated as of the last date of the most recent quarterly period in the four quarter period for which such determination is being made; and (3) other than for purposes of clause (2) the Euro Equivalent of the principal amount of any such Indebtedness outstanding on the Issue Date will be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the Issue Date. For the avoidance of doubt, for the purpose of determining the Consolidated Leverage or Consolidated Senior Secured Leverage, if any Indebtedness is subject to a Currency Exchange Protection Agreement, any amount that would be payable by the Issuer, Wind or any other Restricted Subsidiary of Wind upon termination or close out under such a Currency Exchange Protection Agreement to the extent such termination or close out has not occurred will not be taken into account to the extent such Indebtedness for which such a Currency Exchange Protection Agreement relates is calculated pursuant to the Currency Exchange Protection Agreement

(a) The Issuer and Wind will not, and Wind will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless:

(i) Wind or such Restricted Subsidiary receives consideration at the time of the Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value (including as to the value of all non-cash consideration) of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of as determined in good faith by the principal financial officer of Wind or, in the case of assets and Equity Interests having a value in excess of €15 million, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of Wind; and

(ii) at least 75% of the consideration received in the Asset Sale by Wind or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash and/or Cash Equivalents. For purposes of this provision, each of the following will be deemed to be cash:

(A) any liabilities, as shown on Wind’s most recent consolidated balance sheet, of Wind or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities, and liabilities (or the guarantees thereof) that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Note Guarantee) that are assumed or repaid by another Person in connection with such Asset Sale; provided that Wind or such Restricted Subsidiaries are released from further liability;

(B) any securities, notes or other obligations received by Wind or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted into cash or Cash Equivalents within 45 days of receipt thereof; and to the extent of the cash or Cash Equivalents received in that conversion;

(D) any Designated Non-Cash Consideration received by Wind or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in such Asset Sales having an aggregate Fair Market Value, when taken together with all other Designated Non-Cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (D) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed €25.0 million, measured at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-Cash Consideration (with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-Cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value); and

(b) Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, Wind or any Restricted Subsidiary may:

(i) apply the Net Proceeds to (a) purchase the Notes pursuant to an offer made on a pro rata basis to all of the holders of Notes at a purchase price not less than 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, to the date of purchase (a “Notes Offer”), (b) redeem the Notes pursuant to the redemption provisions set forth in Section 3.07 and/or Section 3.08 or (c) make an Asset Sale Offer to all holders of the Notes and holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes or any Note Guarantees and that is not subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or any Note Guarantee;

(ii) apply the Net Proceeds to repay, prepay, redeem or purchase (a) Senior Debt, (b) Indebtedness that is secured by a Lien (other than a Permitted Collateral Lien) on the asset which is the subject of the Asset Sale or (c) with respect to assets of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not the Issuer or a Guarantor, Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not the Issuer or a Guarantor and if the Senior Debt repaid, prepaid, redeemed or purchased is revolving credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto;

(iii) apply the Net Proceeds to acquire all or substantially all of the assets of, or any Capital Stock of, another Permitted Business, if, after giving effect to any such acquisition of assets or Capital Stock, the Permitted Business is or becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of Wind;

(v) apply the Net Proceeds to acquire other assets that are not classified as current assets under IFRS and that are used or useful in a Permitted Business;

(vi) enter into a binding commitment to apply the Net Proceeds pursuant to clauses (i), (iii), (iv) or (v) of this paragraph; provided that such binding commitment shall be treated as a permitted application of the Net Proceeds from the date of such commitment until the earlier of (x) the date on which such acquisition or expenditure is consummated, and (y) the 180^th day following the expiration of the aforementioned 365 day period; or

Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds, Wind may temporarily reduce revolving credit borrowings or otherwise invest the Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Indenture.

(c) Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in Section 4.10(b) will constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds €35.0 million, within 25 days thereof, the Issuer (or Wind on the Issuer’s behalf) will make an Asset Sale Offer in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3.11, to all Holders of Notes and creditors under any other Pari Passu Indebtedness containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Section 4.10 with respect to offers to purchase or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets, to purchase the maximum principal amount (on a pro rata basis) of Notes and such other Pari Passu Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts then due, if any, to the date of purchase and will be payable in cash and, with respect to other Pari Passu Indebtedness, will be no more than 100% of the principal amount of such other Pari Passu Indebtedness plus accrued and unpaid interest and additional amounts then due, if any, to the date of purchase. To the extent the aggregate amount of Notes and such other Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Issuer and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries may use the remaining Excess Proceeds for any purposes not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and such other Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered by the Holders and the holders of such Pari Passu Indebtedness exceeds the Excess Proceeds, the Notes shall be selected for purchase on a pro rata basis and, in the case of such other Pari Passu Indebtedness, as the trustee or agent in relation thereto shall determine. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero.

(d) The Issuer will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the U.S. Exchange Act and any other applicable securities laws, rules and regulations to the extent such laws or regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.10, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.10 by virtue of such compliance.

(a) The Issuer and Wind will not, and Wind will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any

transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of Wind (each, an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of €5.0 million, unless:

(i) the Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are no less favorable, taken as a whole, to Wind or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that could reasonably have been obtained in a comparable arm’s length transaction by Wind or such Restricted Subsidiary with a Person who is not an Affiliate of Wind or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; and

(A) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of €20.0 million, a resolution of the Board of Directors of Wind set forth in an Officer’s Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction satisfies the criteria set forth in the preceding clause (i) and that such Affiliate Transaction has been approved by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of Wind who are disinterested with respect to such transaction; and

(B) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of €30.0 million an opinion as to the fairness to Wind or such Subsidiary of such Affiliate Transaction from a financial point of view issued by an accounting, appraisal, investment banking or valuation firm of international standing.

(b) The following items (including performance of agreements) will not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of Section 4.11(a):

(i) any employment agreement, compensation, retirement, disability, severance, or other benefit plan or agreement, officer or director indemnification agreement, stock option or incentive plan or agreement, equity subscription agreement or any similar arrangement entered into by Wind or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries on behalf of directors, officers and employees in the ordinary course of business and payments pursuant thereto;

(ii) transactions between or among Wind and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided that any transactions between Wind and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than the Issuer) on the one hand, and the Issuer on the other hand, are on terms that are no less favorable, taken as a whole, to the Issuer than those that could reasonably have been obtained from a comparable arm’s length transaction by the Issuer with a Person who is not an Affiliate of the Issuer;

(iii) transactions with or for the benefit of a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary of Wind) that is an Affiliate of Wind solely because Wind or a Restricted Subsidiary of Wind either controls (including pursuant to a joint venture or shareholders agreement), can designate one or more Persons to the Board of Directors of or owns, directly or indirectly, an Equity Interest in such Person;

(iv) payment of reasonable directors’ fees and reimbursement of expenses to Persons who are not otherwise Affiliates of Wind;

(v) any issuance of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of Wind to Affiliates of Wind or the incurrence of Subordinated Shareholder Debt by Wind;

(vi) Restricted Payments that do not violate Section 4.07 and any Permitted Investment (other than Permitted Investments described in clauses (3), (17), (18) and (19) of the definition thereof);

(vii) loans or advances (or cancellations thereof), or guarantees of loans, to employees, directors and officers in the ordinary course of business not to exceed €10.0 million in the aggregate at any one time outstanding;

(viii) the Wind Telecom Management Services Agreement (other than with respect the payment of any amounts to Orascom Telecom Holding, S.A.E. or its Affiliates pursuant to the Wind Telecom Management Services Agreement);

(ix) Permitted Maintenance Payments, Permitted Weather Management Payments and Permitted Management Payments;

(x) arrangements with customers, suppliers, contractors, lessors or sellers of goods or services that are negotiated with an Affiliate and arrangements with WIS, Italia Online Srl and WI Newco, in each case, which are otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture; provided that the terms and conditions of any such transaction or agreement as applicable to Wind and its Restricted Subsidiaries (1) are fair to Wind and its Restricted Subsidiaries and are on terms no less favorable to Wind and its Restricted Subsidiaries than those that could have reasonably been obtained in respect of an analogous transaction or agreement that would not constitute an Affiliate Transaction (in each case, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of Wind or the senior management of Wind), (2) the performance by Wind and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in respect of any such arrangements are for its own behalf and in its own name and (3) Wind and its Restricted Subsidiaries do not assume, and are otherwise not liable for any performance or breach in respect of, any such arrangements by the relevant Affiliate;

(xii) any (a) payments of interest, principal and other amounts owed by Wind or a Restricted Subsidiary of Wind in order to service Indebtedness (and refinancings thereof) owed to an Affiliate and (b) refinancings of such Indebtedness if (i) such Indebtedness is acquired or assumed in connection with an Asset Acquisition Transaction and (ii) such Affiliate is an Affiliate solely as a result of having acquired Equity Interests of the Parent in connection with its acquisition from a third-party; provided that the terms and conditions of the agreements and arrangements governing such Indebtedness and refinancings are fair to Wind and its Restricted Subsidiaries and are on terms no less favorable to Wind and its Restricted Subsidiaries than those that could have reasonably been obtained in respect of an analogous agreement or arrangement that would not constitute an Affiliate Transaction (in each case, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of Wind or the senior management of Wind);

(xiii) agreements and arrangements existing on the date of this Indenture and any amendment, modification or supplement thereto; provided that any such amendment, modification or supplement to terms thereof is not more disadvantageous to the Holders of the Notes and is no less favorable to Wind and its Restricted Subsidiaries (taken as a whole), in each case, in any material respect than the original agreement or arrangement as in effect on the date of this Indenture;

(xiv) the making of any Restricted Payment or Restricted Investment as part of a Cash Distribution, and the amendment, modification or supplement, including any waiver, maturity extension, set-off or discharge (including by way of exchange, sale or substitution), by Wind or any Restricted Subsidiary of any arrangement to such Restricted Payment or Restricted Investment;

(xv) any amendment, modification or supplement, including any waiver, maturity extension, set off or discharge (including by way of exchange, sale or substitution), by Wind or any Restricted Subsidiary of any arrangement connected to the Wind Telecom Loan provided that no actual transfer of cash may be made by Wind or any Restricted Subsidiary as part of such arrangement; and

(a) The Issuer and Wind will not, and Wind will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien (an “Initial Lien”) of any kind securing Indebtedness, except Permitted Liens upon any of their property or assets, now owned or hereafter acquired, unless all payments due under this Indenture, the Notes and any Note Guarantee are secured on an equal and ratable basis with the obligations so secured until such time as such obligations are no longer secured by a Lien. Any Lien created for the benefit of the Holders of Notes pursuant to the preceding sentence of this Section 4.12 will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged (i) upon the release and discharge of the Initial Lien or (ii) as set forth in Article 10.

The Issuer and Wind will not, and Wind will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, engage in any business other than Permitted Businesses.

(a) If a Change of Control occurs, each Holder of Notes will have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase all or any part (in integral multiples of €1,000 for Euro Notes and $1,000 for Dollar Notes; provided that Euro Notes of €100,000 or less or Dollar Notes of $200,000 or less may only be redeemed in whole and not in part) of that Holder’s Notes pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”). In the Change of Control Offer, the Issuer will offer a payment in cash (the “Change of Control Payment”) equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased on the date of purchase plus accrued and unpaid interest and all Additional Amounts (if any) then due on the Notes repurchased to the date of purchase, subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date. Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Issuer will mail a notice to each Holder of Notes describing the circumstances and/or facts that constitute the Change of Control and offering to repurchase Notes on the date (the “Change of Control Payment Date”) specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed, pursuant to the procedures required by this Indenture and described in such notice. The Issuer will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the U.S. Exchange Act and any other applicable securities laws and regulations to the extent Rule 14e-1 and those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control provisions of this Indenture, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control provisions of this Indenture by virtue of such compliance.

(b) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful:

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

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

(iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Issuer.

(c) The Paying Agent will promptly mail to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee or the Registrar will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any. The Issuer will publicly announce, and inform the Luxembourg Stock Exchange of, the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

(d) The provisions of this Section 4.15 that require the Issuer to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control will be applicable whether or not any other provisions of this Indenture are applicable.

(e) The Issuer will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if (1) another Person makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer, or (2) notice of redemption has been given pursuant to Section 3.03, unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditioned upon the consummation of such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Change of Control Offer is made.

(f) For Notes which are represented by global certificates held on behalf of Euroclear, Clearstream and/or DTC, notices may be given by delivery of the relevant notices to each of Euroclear, Clearstream and DTC for communication to entitled account holders in substitution for the below mentioned mailing, publication or posting mechanism. If and for so long as the Notes are listed on the Official List of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and admitted to trading on the Euro MTF Market and the rules of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange so require, the Issuer will publish notices relating to the Change of Control Offer in a leading newspaper of general circulation in Luxembourg (which is expected to be the Luxemburger Wort) or, to the extent and in the manner permitted by such rules, posted on the official website of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (www.bourse.lu).

Neither the Issuer nor any Guarantor will incur any Indebtedness (including Permitted Debt) that is contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Issuer or Guarantor unless such Indebtedness is (1) to the extent such Indebtedness is of the Issuer, also contractually subordinated in right of payment to the Notes on substantially identical (or more favorable) terms; and (2) to the extent such Indebtedness is of a Guarantor, ranks pari passu with, or subordinated to, the applicable Note Guarantee and, if such Guarantor is Wind, the Initial Intercompany Loan; provided, however, that no Indebtedness will be deemed to be contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Guarantor solely (1) by virtue of being unsecured; (2) by virtue of being secured with different collateral; (3) by virtue of being secured on a junior priority basis; (4) by virtue of not being guaranteed; or (5) by virtue of the application of waterfall or other payment ordering provisions affecting different tranches of Indebtedness under Credit Facilities.

(a) The Board of Directors of Wind may designate any Restricted Subsidiary (other than the Issuer) to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default. If a Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments owned by Wind and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary designated as Unrestricted will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under Section 4.07 or under one or more clauses of the definition of Permitted Investments, as determined by Wind. That designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. The Board of Directors of Wind may redesignate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if that redesignation would not cause a Default.

(b) Any designation of a Subsidiary of Wind as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the Trustee a certified copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors giving effect to such designation and an Officer’s Certificate certifying that such designation complied with the preceding conditions and was permitted by Section 4.07. If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet the preceding requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it will thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of this Indenture and any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary will be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of Wind as of such date and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under Section 4.09, Wind and the Issuer will be in default of such Section 4.09.

(c) The Board of Directors of Wind may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary of Wind; provided that such designation will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of Wind of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary, and such designation will only be permitted if (1) such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 4.09, calculated on a pro forma basis to take account of such designation; and (2) no Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation.

(a) Wind will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than the Issuer), directly or indirectly, to guarantee the payment of any other Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Guarantor unless such Restricted Subsidiary simultaneously executes and delivers a Supplemental Indenture pursuant to Section 11.04 providing for the Note Guarantee of the payment of the Notes by such Restricted Subsidiary, which Note Guarantee will be senior to or pari passu with such Restricted Subsidiary’s guarantee of such other Indebtedness unless such other Indebtedness is Senior Debt, in which case the Note Guarantee of the Notes may be subordinated to the guarantee of such Senior Debt to the same extent as the Note Guarantees of the Notes are subordinated to the Senior Debt being guaranteed.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 4.18(a), Wind shall not be obligated to cause such Restricted Subsidiary to guarantee the Notes to the extent that the issuance of a Note Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary, would reasonably be expected to give rise to or result in a violation of applicable law which, in any case, cannot be prevented or otherwise avoided through measures reasonably available to Wind or the Restricted Subsidiary; provided that Wind will procure that the relevant Restricted Subsidiary becomes a Guarantor at such time as such restriction would no longer apply to the providing of the Note Guarantee or no longer would prohibit such Restricted Subsidiary from becoming a Guarantor (or prevent Wind from causing such Restricted Subsidiary to become a Guarantor).

(a) All payments made under or with respect to the Notes (whether or not in the form of Definitive Registered Notes) or with respect to any Note Guarantee will be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future Taxes unless the withholding or deduction of such Taxes is then required by law. If any deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any Taxes imposed or levied by or on behalf of any jurisdiction in which the Issuer or any Guarantor (including any successor entity), is then incorporated, engaged in business or resident for tax purposes or any political subdivision thereof or therein or any jurisdiction from or through which payment is made by or on behalf of the Issuer or any Guarantor (including, without limitation, the jurisdiction of any paying agent) (each, a “Tax Jurisdiction”), will at any time be required to be made from any payments made under or with respect to the Notes or with respect to any Note Guarantee, including, without limitation, payments of principal, redemption price, purchase price, interest or premium, the Issuer or the relevant Guarantor or other payor, as applicable, will pay such additional amounts (the “Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary in order that the net amounts received in respect of such payments by each Holder (including Additional Amounts) after such withholding, deduction or imposition will equal the respective amounts that would have been received in respect of such payments in the absence of such withholding or deduction; provided, however, that no Additional Amounts will be payable with respect to:

(i) any Taxes that would not have been imposed but for the holder or the beneficial owner of the Notes being a citizen or resident or national of, being incorporated in or carrying on a business, in the relevant Tax Jurisdiction in which such Taxes are imposed or having any other present or former connection with the relevant Tax Jurisdiction other than the mere acquisition, holding, enforcement or receipt of payment in respect of the Notes or with respect to any Note Guarantee;

(ii) any Taxes that are imposed or withheld as a result of (i) a misrepresentation by any beneficial owner of the Notes in relation to its legal status or (ii) the failure of the holder or beneficial owner of the Note to comply with any reasonable written request, made to that holder or beneficial owner in writing at least 90 days before any such withholding or deduction would be payable by the Issuer or the Guarantor, to provide, to the extent it is legally entitled, timely and accurate information concerning the nationality, tax residence or identity of such Holder or beneficial owner or to make any valid and timely declaration or similar claim or satisfy any certification, information or other reporting requirement, which is required or imposed by a statute, treaty, regulation or administrative practice of the relevant Tax Jurisdiction as a precondition to exemption from or reduction in all or part of such Taxes;

(iii) any Note presented for payment (where Notes are in the form of Definitive Registered Notes and presentation is required) more than 30 days after the relevant payment is first made available for payment to the Holder (except to the extent that the Holder would have been entitled to Additional Amounts had the Note been presented on the last day of such 30 day period);

(iv) any estate, inheritance, gift, sale, transfer, personal property or similar Taxes;

(v) any Taxes withheld, deducted or imposed on a payment to an individual and that are required to be made pursuant to European Council Directive 2003/48/EC or any other directive implementing the conclusions of the ECOFIN Council meeting of 26 and 27 November 2000 on the taxation of savings income or any law implementing or complying with or introduced in order to conform to, such Directive;

(vi) any Note presented for payment by or on behalf of a holder of Notes who would have been able to avoid such withholding or deduction by presenting the relevant Note to another Paying Agent in a member state of the European Union;

(vii) any Taxes payable other than by deduction or withholding from payments under, or with respect to, the Notes or with respect to any Note Guarantee; or

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 4.19(a), none of the Issuer or any Guarantor, any paying agent or any other person shall be required to pay any Additional Amounts with respect to any withholding or deduction imposed on or in respect of any Note pursuant to Sections 1471 to 1474 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“FATCA”), any treaty, law, regulation or other official guidance enacted by any relevant Tax Jurisdiction implementing FATCA, or any agreement between the Issuer and/or any Guarantor and the United States or any authority thereof implementing FATCA.

(c) The Issuer hereby covenants with the Agents that it will provide them with information required by law so as to enable the Agents to determine whether any payments to be made by them are withholdable payments as defined in section 1473(1) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or otherwise defined in Sections 1471 to 1474 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and any regulations or agreements thereunder or official interpretation thereof) or any intergovernmental agreement between the United States and another jurisdiction facilitating the implementation thereof (or any law implementing such an intergovernmental agreement).

(d) In addition to Section 4.19(a), the Issuer and the Guarantors will also pay and indemnify the Holder for any present or future stamp, issue, registration, court or documentary taxes, or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies or Taxes which are levied by any Tax Jurisdiction on the execution, delivery, registration or enforcement of any of the Notes, this Indenture, any Note Guarantee, or any other document or instrument referred to therein.

(e) If the Issuer or any Guarantor, as the case may be, becomes aware that it will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to any payment under or with respect to the Notes or any Note Guarantee, the Issuer or the relevant Guarantor, as the case may be, will deliver to the Trustee on a date that is at least 30 days prior to the date of that payment (unless the obligation to pay Additional Amounts arises after the 30th day prior to that payment date, in which case the Issuer or the relevant Guarantor shall notify the Trustee promptly thereafter) an Officer’s Certificate stating the fact that Additional Amounts will be payable and the amount estimated to be so payable. The Officer’s Certificate must also set forth any other information reasonably necessary to enable the Paying Agents to pay Additional Amounts to holders on the relevant payment date. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely solely without further investigation or verification on such Officer’s Certificate as conclusive proof that such payments are necessary. The Issuer or the relevant Guarantor will provide the Trustee with documentation satisfactory to the Trustee evidencing the payment of Additional Amounts.

(f) The Issuer or the relevant Guarantor will make all withholdings and deductions required by law and will remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Tax authority in accordance with applicable law. Upon request, the Issuer or the relevant Guarantor will provide to the Trustee an official receipt or, if official receipts are not obtainable, other documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee evidencing the payment of any Taxes so deducted or withheld. The Issuer or the relevant Guarantor will attach to each certified copy or other document a certificate stating the amount of such Taxes paid per €1,000 or $1,000 principal amount, as applicable, of the Notes then outstanding. Upon request, copies of those receipts or other documentation, as the case may be, will be made available by the Trustee to the holders of the Notes.

(g) Whenever in this Indenture there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of amounts based upon the principal amount of the Notes or of principal, interest or of any other amount payable under, or with respect to, any of the Notes or Note Guarantee, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof.

The Issuer will use its reasonable best efforts to list and to maintain the listing of the Notes on the Official List of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and admitted to trading on the Euro MTF Market for so long as such Notes are outstanding; provided that if at any time the Issuer determines that it is unable to list or it can no longer reasonably comply with the requirements for listing the Notes on the Official List of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and admitted to trading on the Euro MTF Market or if maintenance of such listing becomes unduly onerous, it will obtain prior to the delisting of the Notes from the Euro MTF Market, and thereafter use its reasonable best efforts to maintain, a listing of such Notes on such other “recognised stock exchange” as defined in Section 1005 of the Income Tax Act 2007 of the United Kingdom.

(i) the Issuer will not engage in any business activity or undertake any other activity, except any activity: (a) relating to the offering, sale, or issuance of Indebtedness (including any Indebtedness issued in the future), the incurrence of any Indebtedness of the Issuer permitted under this Indenture (including the making of any guarantee), lending or otherwise advancing the proceeds thereof to Wind or another Guarantor and any other activities in connection therewith, (b) undertaken with the purpose of, and directly related to, consummating the issuance of the Notes pursuant to the Offering Memorandum or fulfilling any other obligations under any Indebtedness permitted under this Indenture (including for the avoidance of doubt, any repurchase or purchase, repayment, redemption, prepayment of such Indebtedness) or including, without limitation, the Notes (including Additional Notes, if any), the 2010 Indenture Senior Secured Notes, the 2013 Indenture Senior Secured Notes, this Indenture, the Priority Agreement (or any additional intercreditor agreement or priority agreement entered into pursuant to the terms of the Priority Agreement or this Indenture), the Intercompany Loans, any Security Document to which it is a party or any other document relating to the Notes (including Additional Notes, if any) or to Indebtedness of the Issuer permitted under this Indenture or the making of Permitted Investments, (c) directly related or reasonably incidental to the establishment and/or maintenance of the Issuer’s corporate existence, (d) relating to the consummation of any Corporate Reorganization Transaction, the Issuer Expansion Activities and Issuer Distributions, acting as a treasury company for Wind Telecom S.p.A. and its Subsidiaries and the issuance of the Notes, (e) directly related or reasonably incidental to the management of the corporate existence of any finance company, (f) directly related to investing amounts received by the Issuer in such manner not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture or the Priority Agreement, (g) relating to the consummation of any Change of Control, or (h) other activities not specifically enumerated that are de minimis in nature or otherwise related or reasonably incidental to any of the foregoing;

(ii) for so long as any Notes are outstanding, Wind will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to commence or take any action or facilitate a winding-up, liquidation or other analogous proceeding in respect of the Issuer;

(iii) except in accordance with Section 5.01, the Issuer (a) will not merge, consolidate, amalgamate or otherwise combine with or into another Person (whether or not the Issuer is the surviving corporation) or, (b) sell, convey, assign, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets to any Person or group of Persons, and (c) will remain a Restricted Subsidiary of Wind;

(iv) no Person who is an officer, an employee, a consultant or an agent of Wind or any of its Affiliates (other than the Issuer) (each, an “Affiliated Person”) shall be appointed as a director of the Issuer, provided that Affiliated Persons may be appointed as directors of the Issuer to the extent that the majority of the directors of the Issuer are non-Affiliated Persons; and

(v) neither Wind nor any of its Affiliates shall, whether directly or through another Person, in any manner or form, Direct and Coordinate the Issuer, any of its operations, its management and its assets.

(a) Subject to Section 4.22(c), the Issuer and each Guarantor will not, and Wind will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, (i) take, or knowingly or negligently omit to take, any action which act or omission might reasonably be expected to, or would have the result of, materially impairing the security interest with respect to the Collateral; or (ii) grant to any Person other than the Security Agent for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes any interest whatsoever in the Collateral or except as permitted in this Indenture, the Priority Agreement and Security Documents.

(b) At the direction of the Issuer and without the consent of the Holder of Notes, the Security Agent may from time to time enter into one or more amendments to the Security Documents to: (i) cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency therein, (ii) subject to compliance with the foregoing paragraphs, provide for Permitted Collateral Liens to the extent permitted by this Indenture, (iii) comply with the terms of the Priority Agreement (iv) add to the Collateral, (v) evidence the succession of another Person to the Issuer and the assumption by such successor of the obligations under this Indenture, the Notes and the Security Documents, in each case, in accordance with Section 4.10, (vi) provide for the release of property and assets constituting Collateral from the Lien of the Security Documents and/or the release of the Note Guarantee of a Guarantor, in each case, in accordance with (and if permitted by) the terms of this Indenture, (vii) conform the Security Documents to this Description of Notes, (viii) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of the appointment of a successor trustee or security agent or (ix) make any other change thereto that does not adversely affect the rights of Holders of the Notes in any material respect.

(c) Notwithstanding Section 4.22(a) or (b) and without the consent of the Holders of the Notes, (i) Wind and its Restricted Subsidiaries may incur Permitted Collateral Liens in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and (ii) the Collateral may be discharged and released in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; provided that no Security Document may be amended, extended, renewed, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified or replaced (including released and retaken), unless contemporaneously with such amendment, extension, renewal, restatement, supplement, modification or replacement (including release and retake), Wind delivers to the Trustee one of the following: (A) a solvency opinion from an internationally recognized investment bank or accounting firm, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee confirming the solvency of Wind and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, after giving effect to any transactions related to such amendment, restatement, extension, renewal, supplement, modification or replacement (including released and retaken); (B) a certificate from the Board of Directors or chief financial officer of Wind (acting in good faith), in the form set forth as an exhibit to the Indenture, that confirms the solvency of the Person granting such Lien after giving effect to any transaction related to such amendment, extension, renewal, restatement, replacement, supplement, modification or release (including release and retake) or (C) an opinion of counsel, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee (subject to customary exceptions and qualifications), confirming that, after giving effect to any transactions related to such amendment, extension, renewal, restatement, supplement, modification or replacement (including release and retake), the Lien or Liens securing the Notes created under the Security Documents so amended, extended, renewed, restated, supplemented, modified or replaced (including released and retaken) are valid and perfected Liens not otherwise subject to any limitation,

imperfection or new hardening period, in equity or at law, and that such Lien or Liens were not otherwise subject to immediately prior to such amendment, extension, renewal, restatement, supplement, modification or replacement (including release and retake).

(d) In the event that the Issuer complies with this Section 4.22, the Trustee and the Security Agent will (subject to customary protections and indemnifications) consent to such amendment, extension, renewal, restatement, supplement, modification or replacement (including release and retake) with no need for instructions from Holders of the Notes.

The Issuer and Wind shall, and Wind shall procure that each of its Subsidiaries shall, at its own expense, execute and do all such acts and things and provide such assurances as the Security Agent may reasonably require (i) for registering any Security Documents in any required register and for perfecting or protecting the security intended to be afforded by such Security Documents; and (ii) if such Security Documents have become enforceable, for facilitating the realization of all or any part of the assets which are subject to such Security Documents and for facilitating the exercise of all powers, authorities and discretions vested in the Security Agent or in any receiver of all or any part of those assets. Wind shall, and shall procure that each of its respective Subsidiaries shall, execute all transfers, conveyances, assignments and releases of that property whether to the Security Agent or to its nominees and give all notices, orders and directions which the Security Agent may reasonably request.

(a) Except as permitted by Article 9, the Issuer and each Guarantor will not, and Wind will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary of Wind to, amend, modify, supplement or waive any provision of the Priority Agreement (or any additional intercreditor agreement or priority agreement entered into in accordance with to the terms of the Priority Agreement or this Indenture) in a manner adverse to the Holders of the Notes (including the provisions which subordinate the HY Notes Debt, the Intercompany Debt and the Parent Debt (each, as defined therein) to the Note Guarantees).

(b) In addition, the Issuer and Wind agree to keep outstanding one or more Intercompany Loans that would constitute HY Notes Debt (as defined in the Priority Agreement) under the Priority Agreement (or any additional intercreditor agreement or priority agreement entered into in accordance with the terms of the Priority Agreement or this Indenture) in an amount at least equal to the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding.

The Issuer and any Guarantor will not, and Wind will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration to or for the benefit of any Holder of Notes for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid to all Holders of the Notes affected by such consent, waiver or amendment and is paid to all Holders of the Notes that consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer, Wind and Wind’s other Restricted Subsidiaries shall be permitted, in any offer or payment of consideration for, or as an inducement to, any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture, to exclude Holders of Notes in any jurisdiction or any category of Holders of Notes where: (1)(a) the solicitation of such consent, waiver or amendment, including in connection with any tender offer or exchange offer, or (b) the payment of the consideration therefor, could reasonably be interpreted as requiring the Issuer, Wind or any of Wind’s other Restricted Subsidiaries to file a registration statement, prospectus or similar document under any applicable securities laws or listing requirements (including, but not limited to, the United States federal securities laws and the laws of

the European Union or any of its member states), which the Issuer in its sole discretion determines (acting in good faith) would be materially burdensome (it being understood that it would not be materially burdensome to file the consent document(s) used in other jurisdictions, any substantially similar documents or any summary thereof with the securities or financial services authorities in such jurisdiction); or (2) such solicitation would otherwise not be permitted under applicable law in such jurisdiction or with respect to such category of Holders of Notes.

If on any date following the date of this Indenture (a) the Notes are rated (i) Baa3 or better by Moody’s and (ii) BBB- or better by S&P (or, if either Moody’s or S&P ceases to rate the Notes for reasons outside of the control of the Issuer or Wind, the equivalent investment grade credit rating from Fitch or, in the absence of such, any other “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” within the meaning of Rule 15c3-1(c)(2)(vi)(F) under the U.S. Exchange Act selected by Wind as a replacement agency so that the Notes are so rated by at least two such credit rating agencies); and (b) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then, beginning on that day and subject to the provisions of this Section 4.26, the covenants set forth in Sections 4.07 through 4.11, Section 4.18 and clause (iv) of Section 5.01(b) will be suspended.

During any period that the foregoing covenants have been suspended, Wind’s Board of Directors may not designate any of its Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries pursuant to Section 4.17 or clause (2) of the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary.”

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the rating assigned by any such rating agency should subsequently decline to below Baa3 or BBB-, as applicable, the foregoing covenants will be reinstituted as of and from the date of such rating decline. Such covenants will not, however, be of any effect with respect to actions properly taken during the period of suspension. Calculations under the reinstated “Restricted Payments” covenant will be made as if the “Restricted Payments” covenant had been in effect since the date of this Indenture except that no default will be deemed to have occurred by reason of a Restricted Payment made while that covenant was suspended.

(a) The Issuer will not, directly or indirectly: (1) consolidate, amalgamate, merge or otherwise combine with or into another Person (whether or not the Issuer is the surviving corporation); or (2) sell, assign, transfer, convey, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer, in one or more related transactions, to another Person, unless:

(i) either: (1) Wind or the Issuer is the surviving or continuing Person; or (2) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation, merger, amalgamation or combination (if other than Wind) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been made complies with Section 4.21 prior to and after such transaction and is a Person (in corporate or company form, including substantially similar organizational forms under relevant law) organized or existing under the laws of any member state of the Pre-Expansion European Union, the laws of the United States, any state of the United States or the District of Columbia;

(ii) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation, merger, amalgamation or combination (if other than the Issuer) or the Person to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been made assumes all the obligations of the Issuer under the Notes, this Indenture, the Priority Agreement (or any additional intercreditor agreement or priority agreement entered into pursuant to the terms of

the Priority Agreement or this Indenture) and the Security Documents pursuant to agreements reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee to which the Issuer is a party other than, to the extent such surviving entity is Wind, the obligations of the Issuer described under Section 4.21; and

(iii) immediately after such transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists and the Security Documents and the Liens created on the Collateral (other than, to the extent the surviving entity is Wind, the assignment of any Intercompany Loan; provided that such Intercompany Loan is cancelled or otherwise could have been incurred by Wind at the time of such transaction pursuant to Section 4.09) shall remain in full force and effect, or subject to the satisfaction of the Trustee, shall have been transferred to such surviving entity and shall have been perfected and be in full force and effect or otherwise released in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.

(b) Wind will not, directly or indirectly: (1) consolidate, merge, amalgamate or combine with or into another Person (whether or not Wind is the surviving corporation); or (2) sell, assign, transfer, convey, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the assets of Wind and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole, in one or more related transactions, to another Person, unless:

(i) either: (1) Wind is the surviving or continuing Person; or (2) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation, merger, amalgamation or combination (if other than Wind) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition has been made (the “Successor Company”) is a Person (in corporate or company form, including substantially similar organizational forms under relevant law) organized or existing under the laws of any member state of the Pre-Expansion European Union, the laws of the United States, any state of the United States or the District of Columbia;

(ii) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation, merger, amalgamation or combination (if other than Wind) or the Person to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition has been made assumes all the obligations of Wind under any Intercompany Loan, this Indenture, the Note Guarantee, the Priority Agreement (or any additional intercreditor agreement or priority agreement entered into pursuant to the terms of the Priority Agreement or this Indenture) and/or the Security Documents pursuant to agreements reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee;

(iii) immediately after such transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists; and

(iv) Wind or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation, merger, amalgamation or combination (if other than Wind), or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition has been made would, on the date of such transaction after giving pro forma effect thereto and any related financing transactions, (a) be permitted to incur at least €1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Consolidated Leverage Ratio test set forth in Section 4.09(a) or (b) have a Consolidated Leverage Ratio not greater than what such ratio was immediately prior to giving effect to such transaction.

(c) In addition, neither the Issuer nor any Guarantor (including Wind) will, directly or indirectly, lease all or substantially all of the properties and assets of it and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole, in one or more related transactions, to any other Person.

(i) a merger of Wind with an Affiliate for the primary purpose of reincorporating Wind, as the case may be, in another jurisdiction for tax reasons;

(ii) a Restricted Subsidiary of Wind consolidating with, merging into or selling, assigning, transferring, conveying, leasing or otherwise disposing of assets to (a) Wind or any Restricted Subsidiary of Wind that is a Guarantor or the Issuer or, (b) with respect to a Restricted Subsidiary of Wind that is not a Guarantor or the Issuer, another Restricted Subsidiary; or

(iii) Wind consolidating with, merging into or selling, assigning, transferring, conveying, leasing or otherwise disposing of all or substantially all of its assets to the Parent or the Parent consolidating with, merging into or selling, assigning, transferring, conveying, leasing or otherwise disposing of all or substantially all of its assets to Wind. Following any such merger, any transaction which would have been permitted with the Parent shall be permitted to be undertaken with WIND Telecom S.p.A.

Upon any consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Issuer or Wind in a transaction that is subject to, and that complies with the provisions of, Section 5.01, the successor Person formed by such consolidation or into or with which the Issuer or Wind, as applicable, is merged or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such consolidation, merger, sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition, the provisions of this Indenture referring to the “Issuer” or “Wind”, as applicable, shall refer instead to the successor Person and not to the Issuer or Wind, as applicable), and may exercise every right and power of the Issuer or Wind, as applicable, under this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as the Issuer or Wind, as applicable, herein; provided, however, that the predecessor shall not be relieved from the obligation to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes except in the case of a sale of all of the assets of the Issuer or Wind, as applicable, in a transaction that is subject to, and that complies with the provisions of, Section 5.01.

(i) default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on, or Additional Amounts (if any) with respect to, the Notes;

(ii) default in the payment when due (at maturity, upon redemption or otherwise) of the principal of, or premium, if any, on, the Notes;

(iii) failure by the Issuer, Wind or any of Wind’s other Restricted Subsidiaries to comply with Section 4.10, Section 4.15 or Section 5.01;

(iv) failure by the Issuer, Wind or any of Wind’s other Restricted Subsidiaries for 60 days after notice to the Issuer and Wind by the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding voting as a single class to comply with any of the agreements in this Indenture (other than those described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above), the Notes, the Note Guarantee, the Priority Agreement (or any additional intercreditor agreement or priority agreement entered into pursuant to the terms of the Priority Agreement or this Indenture) or any Note Security Document;

(v) default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Issuer, Wind or any of Wind’s other Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Issuer, Wind or any of Wind’s other Restricted Subsidiaries), whether such Indebtedness or guarantee now exists, or is created after the date of this Indenture, if that default:

(A) is caused by a failure to pay principal of such Indebtedness prior to the expiration of the grace period provided in such Indebtedness on the date of such default (a “Payment Default”); or

(B) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its Stated Maturity,

and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated (and not rescinded, cured or waived) aggregates €25.0 million or more at any time outstanding (and not rescinded, cured or waived);

(vi) failure by the Issuer, Wind or any of Wind’s other Restricted Subsidiaries to pay final judgments for the payment of cash or other assets or properties, or the assumption of liabilities, entered by a court or courts of competent jurisdiction aggregating in excess of €25.0 million, which judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed for a period of 60 consecutive days following such final judgment;

(vii) except as permitted by this Indenture, any Note Guarantee is held in any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or ceases for any reason to be in full force and effect, or any Guarantor, or any Person acting on behalf of any Guarantor, denies or disaffirms its obligations under its Note Guarantee;

(viii) breach by the Issuer, Wind or any of Wind’s other Restricted Subsidiaries of any material representation or warranty or agreement in the Security Documents, the repudiation by the Issuer, Wind or any of Wind’s other Restricted Subsidiaries of any of its obligations under the Security Documents or the unenforceability of the Security Documents against the Parent, the Issuer, Wind or any of Wind’s other Subsidiaries for any reason;

(ix) the Issuer, Wind or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of Wind that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within the meaning of Bankruptcy Law:

(B) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case,

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

(A) is for relief against the Issuer, Wind or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of Wind that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case;

(B) appoints a custodian of the Issuer, Wind or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of Wind that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary or for all or substantially all of the property of Wind or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of Wind that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary; or

(C) orders the liquidation of the Issuer, Wind or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of Wind that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary;

In the case of an Event of Default specified in clause (ix) or (x) of Section 6.01, with respect to the Issuer, Wind, any Restricted Subsidiary of Wind that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of Wind that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately and to take any other remedy available hereunder. Upon any such declaration, the Notes shall become due and payable immediately.

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

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

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

Prior to taking any action hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification or other security satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses, liabilities and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.

Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders of Notes or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability, except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal, interest, premium or Additional Amounts (if any).

Subject to the provisions of this Indenture relating to the duties of the Trustee, in case an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under this Indenture at the request or direction of any Holders of Notes unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity and/or security satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest or Additional Amounts (if any) when due, no Holder of a Note may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless:

(i) the Holder of a Note gives to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default;

(ii) the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

(iii) such Holder of a Note or Holders of Notes offer and, if requested, provide to the Trustee indemnity and/or security against any loss, liability or expense;

(iv) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer and, if requested, the provision of indemnity and/or security; and

(v) during such 60 day period, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request.

A Holder of a Note may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder of a Note or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder of a Note.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, unless consented to by holders of at least 90% of the then outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Notes, the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal of, interest and premium, Additional Amounts, if any, on the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note (including in connection with an offer to purchase), or to bring proceedings for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01 occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer for

the whole amount of principal of, interest and premium then owing, Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes and interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, Additional Amounts, interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer, a Guarantor or any other obligor upon the Notes), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

Subject to the terms of the Priority Agreement, all moneys received by the Trustee under this Indenture shall be held by the Trustee in trust to apply them (subject to any legal privilege (if any) pursuant to any applicable Bankruptcy Law):

First: to the Trustee, its agents and attorneys for amounts due under this Indenture, including payment of all compensation, expense and liabilities incurred, and all advances, if any, made, by the Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection;

Second: to Holders of Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes, on the principal of, or premium, interest, Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes, pari passu and ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes, on the principal of, premium, interest, Additional Amounts, if any, respectively; and

Third: to the Issuer or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct.

The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders of Notes pursuant to this Section 6.10.

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 a Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the

court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder of a Note pursuant to Section 6.07, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes.

Proof that, as regards any specified Note, the Issuer has defaulted in paying any amount due in respect of such Note shall (unless the contrary be proved) be sufficient evidence that the same default has been made as regards all other Notes in respect of which the relevant amount is due and payable.

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Trustee or the requisite Holders, may, in its sole discretion, by notice to the Agents, require such Agents to act to its direction.

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

(i) the duties of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture and the Trustee need perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

(ii) 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. However, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy or mathematical calculations or other facts stated herein).

(c) The Trustee may not be relieved from liabilities for its own gross negligent action, its own gross negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct or fraud, except that:

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

(iii) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.05.

(d) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 7.01.

(e) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or incur any liability. The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights and powers under this Indenture at the request of any Holders, unless such Holder shall have offered to the Trustee security and/or indemnity satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against any loss, liability or expense.

(f) The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Issuer. Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

(a) The Trustee may conclusively rely without further investigation or verification upon and will be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon, whether in its original, facsimile or other electronic form, any document reasonably 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 (regardless of whether any such document is subject to any monetary or other limit).

(b) In no event shall the Trustee, the Agents or any other entity of The Bank of New York Mellon Group be liable for any losses arising to the Trustee or Agents or any other entity of The Bank of New York Mellon Group receiving or transmitting any data from the Issuer, Wind, any authorized person officer of the Issuer or Wind or any party to the transaction via any non-secure method of transmission or communication, such as, but without limitation, by facsimile or email.

(c) The Issuer and Wind accept that some methods of communication are not secure and the Trustee, the Agents or any other entity of The Bank of New York Mellon Group shall incur no liability for receiving instructions via any such non-secure method. The Trustee, the Agents or any other entity of The Bank of New York Mellon Group is authorized to comply with and rely upon any such notice, instructions or other communications believed by it to have been sent or given by an Officer or an appropriate party to the transaction (or authorized representative thereof). The Issuer, Wind or authorized officer of the Issuer or Wind shall use all reasonable endeavours to ensure that instructions transmitted to the Trustee, the Agents or any other entity of The Bank of New York Mellon Group pursuant to this Indenture are complete and correct. Any instructions shall be conclusively deemed to be valid instructions from the Issuer, Wind or authorized officer of the Issuer or Wind to the Trustee, the Agents or any other entity of The Bank of New York Mellon Group for the purposes of this Indenture.

(d) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel, as the case may be. The Trustee may consult with professional advisors (including counsel) and the written advice of such professional adviser or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon.

(e) The Trustee may act through its attorneys and agents and shall not be responsible for the willful misconduct, gross negligence or fraud of any agent appointed with due care.

(f) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith that it reasonably believes to be authorized or within the rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture.

(g) The Trustee shall have no duty to inquire as to the financial performance or the covenant compliance of the Issuer or Wind.

(h) Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture, any demand, request, direction or notice from the Issuer shall be sufficient if signed by an Officer of the Issuer.

(i) The Trustee shall 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 unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security and/or indemnity satisfactory to it against the losses, liabilities and expenses that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.

(j) The Trustee shall have no duty to inquire as to the performance of the covenants of the Issuer and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries in Article 4. In addition, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default except: (i) any Event of Default occurring pursuant to Section 6.01(i) or 6.01(ii) (provided it is acting as Paying Agent); and (ii) any Default or Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer shall have received written notification. Delivery of reports, information and documents to the Trustee under Section 4.03 is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of the foregoing shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Issuer’s compliance with any of their covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officer’s Certificates).

(k) The Trustee shall not have any obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance, and shall not be responsible or liable for compliance with restrictions on transfer, exchange, redemption, purchase or repurchase, as applicable, of minimum denominations imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law or regulation with respect to any transfer, exchange, redemption, purchase or repurchase, as applicable, of any interest in any Notes.

(l) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee under this Indenture, including its right to be indemnified and/or secured, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by BNY Mellon Corporate Trustee Services Limited in each of its capacities hereunder and by The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch, The Bank of New York Mellon, The Bank of New York Mellon (Luxembourg) S.A. and each agent, custodian and other person employed to act hereunder. Absent willful misconduct, gross negligence or fraud, each Paying Agent, Registrar and Transfer Agent shall not be liable for acting in good faith on instructions believed by it to be genuine and from the proper party.

(m) In the event the Trustee receives inconsistent or conflicting requests and indemnity from two or more groups of Holders, each representing less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, the Trustee, in its sole discretion, may determine what action, if any, will be taken and shall not incur any liability for its failure to act until such inconsistency or conflict is, in its reasonable opinion, resolved.

(n) In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused directly or indirectly, by forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism involving the United States, the United Kingdom or any member state of the European Monetary Union, any civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or any other national or international calamity or emergency (including natural disasters or acts of God), it being understood that the Trustee shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.

(o) The Trustee is not required to give any bond or surety with respect to the performance or its duties or the exercise of its powers under this Indenture or the Notes.

(p) The permissive right of the Trustee to take the actions permitted by this Indenture shall not be construed as an obligation or duty to do so.

(q) The Trustee will not be liable to any person if prevented or delayed in performing any of its obligations or discretionary functions under this Indenture by reason of any present or future law applicable to it, by any governmental or regulatory authority or by any circumstances beyond its control.

(r) Under no circumstances will the Trustee be liable for any special, punitive, consequential or indirect loss (being loss of business, goodwill, opportunity or profit of any kind) of the Issuer, Successor Company, the Parent, any Restricted Subsidiary or any other Person, even if advised of such loss or damage.

(s) The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Issuer personally or by agent or attorney.

(t) The Trustee may request that the Issuer deliver an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the names of the 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.

The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or any Affiliate of the Issuer with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the Commission for permission to continue as trustee (if this Indenture has been qualified under the TIA) or resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to Section 7.10.

The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture, the Notes, any Note Guarantee, the Priority Agreement (or any additional intercreditor agreement or priority agreement entered into in accordance with the terms of the Priority Agreement or this Indenture) or the Security Documents, it shall not be accountable for the Issuer’s use of the proceeds from the Notes, and it shall not be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Notes or any other document in connection with the sale of the Notes or pursuant to this Indenture other than its certificate of authentication.

If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if it is known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail or cause to be mailed to Holders of Notes a notice of the Default or Event of Default within the earlier of 90 days after it occurs or 30 days after it is known to the Trustee. The Trustee may withhold from the Holders notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal, premium, interest or Additional Amounts, if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest.

(a) Within 60 days after each May 15 beginning with the May 15 following the date of this Indenture, and for so long as Notes remain outstanding, the Trustee shall mail to the Holders of the Notes a brief report dated as of such reporting date that complies with TIA § 313(a) as if this Indenture were required to be qualified under the TIA (but if no event described in TIA § 313(a) has occurred within the twelve months preceding the reporting date, no report need be transmitted) in accordance with Section 14.01. The Trustee also shall comply with TIA § 313(b)(2) (to the extent applicable) as if this Indenture were required to qualify under the TIA. The Trustee shall also transmit by mail all reports as required by TIA § 313(c) as if this Indenture were required to qualify under the TIA.

(b) A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to the Holders of Notes shall be mailed to the Issuer and filed with each stock exchange on which the Notes are listed in accordance with TIA § 313(d), as if this Indenture were required to qualify under the TIA. The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee when the Notes are listed on any stock exchange.

(a) The Issuer shall pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer shall reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the properly incurred compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel.

(b) The Issuer and any Guarantor shall jointly and severally indemnify the Trustee and its officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents against any and all losses, liabilities or expenses incurred by it arising out of, or in connection with, the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Issuer and any Guarantor (including this Section 7.07) and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Issuer or any Guarantor or any Holder or any other person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except to the extent any such loss, liability or expense may be attributable to its willful misconduct, gross negligence or fraud. The Trustee shall notify the Issuer promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer or any Guarantor of its obligations hereunder. The Issuer or such Guarantor shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Issuer shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. Neither the Issuer nor any Guarantor need pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(c) The obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors under this Section 7.07 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or the earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee.

(d) To secure the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ payment obligations in this Section 7.07, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal of, premium, interest, Additional Amounts, if any, on particular Notes (including under the Assignment Agreement). Such Lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

(e) When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01 occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

(a) A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.08.

(b) The Trustee may resign in writing at any time and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so notifying the Issuer. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Issuer in writing. The Issuer may remove the Trustee if:

(ii) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law;

(iii) a custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or

(c) If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may appoint a successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Issuer.

(d) If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 calendar days after the retiring Trustee gives notice of resignation or is removed, (i) the retiring Trustee (at the expense of the Issuer), the Issuer, or the Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee; or (ii) the retiring Trustee may appoint a successor Trustee at any time prior to the date on which a successor Trustee takes office; provided that such appointment shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer.

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

(f) A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuer. Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to the Holders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, provided all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.07. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Issuer’s obligations under Section 7.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

If the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation, the successor corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee.

There will at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of England and Wales, or the United States of America or of any state thereof

that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power and that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities. Any successor Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50.0 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition.

The parties hereto acknowledge that in order to help the United States government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, pursuant to Federal regulations that became effective on October 1, 2003 (Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act) all financial institutions are required to obtain, verify, record and update information that identifies each person establishing a relationship or opening an account. The parties to this Indenture agree that they will provide to the Trustee such information as it may request, from time to time, in order for the Trustee to satisfy the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, including but not limited to the name, address, tax identification number and other information that will allow it to identify the individual or entity who is establishing the relationship or opening the account and may also ask for formation documents such as articles of incorporation or other identifying documents to be provided.

The Issuer may, at the option of its Board of Directors evidenced by a resolution set forth in an Officer’s Certificate, at any time, elect to have either Section 8.02 or 8.03 be applied to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article 8.

(a) Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the Issuer and the Guarantors, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, will be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to the Notes (including the Note Guarantee) issued under this Indenture and to have cured all then existing Events of Default on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer and the Guarantors shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes (including the Note Guarantee) and with respect to any Guarantor (other than Wind) the Security Documents to which it is party, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (a)(i) and (ii) below, and to have satisfied all their other obligations under this Indenture and the Notes, the Note Guarantee, and with respect to any Guarantor (other than Wind) the Security Documents to which it is party (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:

(i) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, or interest, premium or Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes when such payments are due solely out of the trust referred to in Section 8.04;

(ii) the Issuer’s obligations with respect to such Notes under Article 2 and Section 4.02;

(iii) the rights, powers, trusts, duties, immunities and indemnifications of the Trustee and the obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors in connection therewith; and

(b) Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Issuer may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.03.

Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Issuer and the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, be released from their respective obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.07 through 4.13, Sections 4.15 through 4.22, Section 5.01(b)(iv) and Section 5.01(c) with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that the Issuer and the Guarantors may, with respect to the outstanding Notes and Note Guarantee and with respect to any Guarantor (other than Wind) the Security Documents to which it is party, omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes, Note Guarantee and Security Documents shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.04, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, the events set forth in clauses (3) through (5) (inclusive) of Section 6.01 shall not constitute Events of Default.

In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance with respect to the Notes issued under this Indenture:

(i) the Issuer must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, cash, Cash Equivalents constituting non-callable government securities, or a combination of cash and Cash Equivalents constituting non-callable government securities (with such cash and government securities denominated in euros and U.S. dollars in amounts correlating to the obligations under the Euro Notes and Dollar Notes, respectively), in amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of an internationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, or interest and premium and Additional Amounts (if any) on, the outstanding Notes on the stated date for payment thereof or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Issuer must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to such stated date for payment or to a particular redemption date;

(ii) in the case of an election under Section 8.02, Wind must deliver to the Trustee:

(A) an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that (a) the Issuer has received from, or there has been published by, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (b) 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 will confirm that, the Holders

of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal 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 Legal Defeasance had not occurred; and

(B) an Opinion of Counsel in the jurisdiction of organization of the Issuer and reasonably acceptable to the Trustee to the effect that the Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for income tax purposes of such jurisdiction as a result of such deposit and defeasance and will be subject to income tax in such jurisdiction 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;

(iii) in the case of an election under Section 8.03, the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee:

(A) an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant 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 Covenant Defeasance had not occurred; and

(B) an Opinion of Counsel in the jurisdiction of organization of the Issuer and reasonably acceptable to the Trustee to the effect that the holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for income tax purposes of such jurisdiction as a result of such deposit and defeasance and will be subject to income tax in such jurisdiction 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;

(iv) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit);

(v) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which Wind or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which Wind or any of its Subsidiaries is bound;

(vi) the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate (with a copy to each Paying Agent) stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuer with the intent of preferring the Holders of Notes over the other creditors of the Issuer or the Guarantors with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any creditors of the Issuer, the Guarantor(s) or others; and

(vii) the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee (with a copy to each Paying Agent), each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with.

(a) Subject to Section 8.06, all money and non-callable Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 in respect of the outstanding Notes shall

be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of the Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, interest, Additional Amounts, if any, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

(b) The Issuer shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes.

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Article 8 to the contrary, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Issuer from time to time upon the request of the Issuer any money or non-callable Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 which, in the opinion of an internationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(i)), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect a Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, as applicable, of the type and scope originally effected by the Issuer pursuant to this Article 8.

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Issuer, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium, interest or Additional Amounts on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, and premium, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuer on its request or (if then held by the Issuer) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter look only to the Issuer for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Issuer as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may, at the expense of the Issuer, give notice to the Holders in accordance with Section 14.01 that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Issuer.

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any U.S. Dollars, euro or non-callable Government Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes and the Guarantors’ obligations under the Note Guarantee and (other than with respect to Wind) any Security Documents to which it is party shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Issuer makes any payment of principal of, premium, interest or Additional Amounts on any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

Notwithstanding Section 9.02 of this Indenture, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Notes, any Note Guarantee, the Priority Agreement (or any additional intercreditor agreement or priority agreement entered into in accordance with the terms of the Priority Agreement or this Indenture) or any Security Document without the consent of any Holder of Note:

(ii) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes;

(iii) to provide for the assumption by a Successor Company (or any other Person formed by or surviving any consolidation, merger, amalgamation or combination that would not violate the provisions of Article 5) of the Issuer’s or any Guarantor’s obligations to the Holders of the Notes, any Note Guarantee, the Priority Agreement (or any additional intercreditor agreement or priority agreement entered into in accordance with the terms of the Priority Agreement or this Indenture) or any Security Document by a successor to the Issuer or such Guarantor pursuant to Article 5;

(iv) to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of the Notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights hereunder of any Holder, to the extent such change would not violate the provisions of this Indenture (including, without limitation, Section 4.22) or any secured party under the Security Documents;

(v) to conform the text of this Indenture, the Notes, a Note Guarantee, the Priority Agreement (or any additional intercreditor agreement or priority agreement entered into in accordance with the terms of the Priority Agreement or this Indenture) or any Security Document to any provision of the “Description of Notes” section of the Offering Memorandum, to the extent that such provision in that “Description of Notes” was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of this Indenture, the Notes, a Note Guarantee, the Priority Agreement or any Security Document;

(vi) to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in accordance with the limitations set forth in this Indenture as of the Issue Date;

(vii) to allow any Guarantor to execute a Supplemental Indenture, Security Document and/or a Note Guarantee with respect to the Notes;

(viii) to the extent necessary to provide for the granting of a security interest for the benefit of any Person, provided that the granting of such security interest is not prohibited under this Indenture; or

(ix) to evidence and provide for a successor Trustee as provided for in this Indenture.

In formulating its opinion on such matters, the Trustee shall be entitled to require and rely on such evidence as is appropriate in light of the nature of such amendment or supplement, including, an Opinion of Counsel and an Officer’s Certificate.

Upon the written request of the Issuer accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture or other document, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02(a), the Trustee will join with the Issuer and the Guarantors in the execution of any amended or supplemental indenture or other document authorized or permitted by the terms of this Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee will not be obligated to enter into such amended or supplemental indenture or other document that affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture (including, without limitation, Sections 4.10 and 4.15), the Notes, any Note Guarantee, the Priority Agreement (or any additional intercreditor agreement or priority agreement entered into in accordance with the terms of the Priority Agreement or this Indenture) or any Security Document with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, Additional Notes, if any) voting as a single class (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, any existing Default or Event of Default (other than a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, interest and premium and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes, except a payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with any provision of this Indenture, the Notes, any Note Guarantee, the Priority Agreement (or any additional intercreditor agreement or priority agreement entered into in accordance with the terms of the Priority Agreement or this Indenture) or any Security Document may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, Additional Notes, if any) voting as a single class (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes).

Upon the written request of the Issuer accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture or other document, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders of Notes as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02(a)(d), the Trustee will join with the Issuer and the Guarantors in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture or other document unless such amended or supplemental indenture or other document directly affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties, liabilities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but will not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental indenture or other document.

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

After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Issuer will mail to the Holders of Notes affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Issuer to mail such notice, or any defect therein, will not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental indenture or waiver. Subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, voting as a single class, may waive compliance in a particular instance by the Issuer with any provision of this Indenture, the Notes, any Note Guarantee, the Priority Agreement (or any additional intercreditor agreement or priority agreement entered into in accordance with the terms of the Priority Agreement or this Indenture) or any Security Document. However, unless consented to by the Holders of at least 90% of the aggregate principal amount of then outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, Additional Notes, if any) voting as a single class (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes), without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder):

(i) reduce the principal amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;

(ii) reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note or alter or waive any of the provisions with respect to the redemption of the Notes (except with respect to Sections 4.10 and 4.15);

(iii) (A) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest, including default interest, on any Note or (B) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture and the Notes relating to the payment of Additional Amounts;

(iv) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, or interest or premium or Additional Amounts on, the Notes (except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration);

(vi) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of Holders of Notes to receive payments of principal of, or interest or premium or Additional Amounts, if any, on, the Notes;

(vii) waive a redemption payment with respect to any Note (other than a payment required by Sections 4.10 or 4.15);

(viii) release any Guarantor (or, with respect to the Company Share Pledge Agreements, the Parent) from any of its obligations under its Note Guarantee, this Indenture or the relevant Security Document, except in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and the Priority Agreement (or any additional intercreditor agreement or priority agreement entered into in accordance with the terms of the Priority Agreement or this Indenture);

(ix) make any change to any provision of this Indenture or the Priority Agreement affecting the ranking of the Notes or the Note Guarantees, in each case, in a manner that adversely affects the rights of Holders of the Notes;

(xi) release any Collateral pledged under the Security Documents, except in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, the Priority Agreement (or any additional intercreditor agreement or priority agreement entered into pursuant to the terms of the Priority Agreement or this Indenture) and the Security Documents.

For the purposes of calculating the aggregate principal amount of Notes that have consented to or voted in favor of any amendment, supplement or waiver, the Euro Equivalent of the principal amount of any Dollar Notes shall be as of the Issue Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of articles 86 to 94-8 of the Luxembourg act dated 10 August 1915 on commercial companies, as amended, shall not apply in respect of the Notes.

Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or

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

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

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

The Trustee will sign any amended or supplemental indenture or other document authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement or other document does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. Neither the Issuer nor Wind may sign an amended or supplemental indenture or other document until the Board of Directors of the Issuer and Wind, respectively, approves it. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture or other document, the Trustee will be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01) will be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 14.03, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture or other document is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such amendment is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer and Wind (and any guarantor) enforceable against them in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions, and complies with the provisions of this Indenture.

The due and punctual payment of the principal of, and premium, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes and any Note Guarantee when and as the same shall be due and payable, whether on an interest payment date, at maturity, by acceleration, repurchase, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest and Additional Amounts (to the extent permitted by law), if any, on the Notes and any Note Guarantee and performance of all other obligations of the Issuer and any Guarantor to the Holders of Notes or the Trustee under this Indenture, the Notes and any Note Guarantee, according to the terms hereunder or thereunder, are secured as provided in the Security Documents and Priority Agreement which the Issuer and the Guarantors have entered into prior to or simultaneously with the execution of this Indenture. Each Holder of Notes, by its acceptance thereof, consents and agrees to the terms of the Security Documents and Priority Agreement (including, without limitation, the provisions providing for foreclosure and release of Collateral and authorizing the Security Agent to enter into any Security Document on its behalf) as the same may be in effect or may be amended from time to time in accordance with its terms and authorizes and directs the Security Agent (including, for the purpose of the Security Documents governed by Italian law, as a “mandatario con rappresentanza”) to enter into the Security Documents and the Priority Agreement and to perform its obligations and exercise its rights thereunder in accordance therewith. The Issuer will deliver to the Trustee copies of all documents delivered to the Security Agent pursuant to the Security Documents, and the Issuer and Wind will, and Wind will cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, do or cause to be done all such acts and things as may be required, or which the Security Agent from time to time may reasonably

request, to assure and confirm to the Trustee that the Security Agent holds, for the benefit of the Holders and the Trustee, duly created, enforceable and perfected Liens as contemplated hereby and by the Security Documents and the Priority Agreement, so as to render the same available for the security and benefit of this Indenture and of the Notes and any Note Guarantee secured hereby, according to the intent and purposes herein expressed. The Issuer and any Guarantor will each take, and will cause their respective Subsidiaries to take, upon request of the Trustee, any and all actions reasonably required to cause the Security Documents and the Priority Agreement to create and maintain, as security for the Obligations of the Issuer and any Guarantor hereunder, in respect of the Collateral, valid and enforceable perfected Liens in and on such Collateral with the respective rankings as set forth in definition of “Collateral.”

Collateral may be released from the Liens and security interests created by the Security Documents at any time or from time to time in accordance with the provisions of the Security Documents, the Priority Agreement and this Indenture. In addition, and subject to the terms and conditions of the relevant Security Documents and the Priority Agreement, upon the request of the Issuer pursuant to an Officer’s Certificate certifying that all conditions precedent hereunder have been met and stating whether or not such release is in connection with an Asset Sale and (at the sole cost and expense of the Issuer) the Trustee shall, if so requested by the Security Agent or the Issuer or otherwise required by the Priority Agreement, authorize the release of Collateral from the security created by the Security Documents that is sold, conveyed or disposed of in compliance with the provisions of this Indenture; provided, that if such sale, conveyance or disposition constitutes an Asset Sale, the Issuer will apply the Net Proceeds in accordance with Section 4.10. Upon receipt of such Officer’s Certificate the Security Agent shall execute, deliver or acknowledge any necessary or proper instruments of termination, satisfaction or release to evidence the release of any Collateral permitted to be released pursuant to this Indenture or the Security Documents and the Priority Agreement.

Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01 and 7.02 and the terms of the Security Documents and the Priority Agreement (including any consent of the Holders required thereunder), the Trustee may, in its sole discretion, direct, on behalf of the Holders of Notes, the Security Agent to take all actions it deems necessary or appropriate in order to:

(i) enforce any of the terms of the Security Documents or the Priority Agreement; and

(ii) collect and receive any and all amounts payable in respect of the Obligations of the Issuer or any Guarantor hereunder, as the case may be.

The Trustee will have power to institute and maintain such suits and proceedings as it may deem expedient to prevent any impairment of the Collateral by any acts that may be unlawful or in violation of the Security Documents, the Priority Agreement or this Indenture, and such suits and proceedings as the Trustee may deem expedient to preserve or protect its interests and the interests of the Holders of Notes in the Collateral (including power to institute and maintain suits or proceedings to restrain the enforcement of or compliance with any legislative or other governmental enactment, rule or order that may be otherwise invalid if the enforcement of, or compliance with, such enactment, rule or order would impair the security interest hereunder or be prejudicial to the interests of the Holders of Notes or of the Trustee).

The Trustee is authorized to receive any funds for the benefit of the Holders of Notes distributed under the Security Documents or Priority Agreement, and to make further distributions of such funds to the Holders of Notes according to the provisions of this Indenture and the Priority Agreement.

The Trustee shall, at the request of the Issuer or a Guarantor upon having provided the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate (which shall certify, among other things, that all action under the relevant Security Document(s) with respect to the release of the security thereunder has been taken and the release of the Collateral complies with the terms of the relevant Security Document(s)) and Opinion of Counsel certifying compliance with this Section 10.05, execute and deliver a certificate to the Security Agent releasing the relevant Collateral or other appropriate instrument evidencing such release (in the form provided by the Issuer):

(i) upon the full and final payment and performance of all Obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture and the Notes;

(ii) upon a Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance as provided for in Article 8 or satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as provided for in Article 13;

(iii) with respect to a Guarantor other than Wind, in connection with any sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all of the Capital Stock of such Guarantor or all of the assets of such Guarantor (other than to an Affiliate of Wind or any of its Subsidiaries), if the sale or other disposition is in compliance with the provisions of this Indenture including, without limitation, Section 4.10;

(iv) (A) in the case of a Guarantor (other than Wind) that is released from its Guarantee pursuant to clause (vi) of Section 11.06, the release of the property and assets, and Capital Stock, of such Guarantor or (B) pursuant Section 4.12;

(v) in connection with an enforcement sale in compliance with the Priority Agreement;

(vi) with respect to a Guarantor (if any) other than Wind, if Wind designates any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture; or

In addition, subject to the conditions set forth in the Priority Agreement, a pledge of the shares of Wind’s Subsidiaries (if any) will be automatically released at the time of an enforcement sale of the pledged entity or of the assets or shares of any direct or indirect parent entity of such Subsidiary (other than Wind).

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Indenture and the Security Documents, the Issuer and any Guarantor shall use its respective best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all appropriate action, and to do or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable laws and regulations to consummate and make effective the security over the Collateral as contemplated by the Security Documents and the Priority Agreement, including, without limitation, (i) cooperating in the preparation of any required filings under the Security Documents and the Priority Agreement, (ii) using best efforts to make all required filings, notifications, releases and applications and to obtain licenses, permits, consents, approvals, authorizations, qualifications and orders of governmental authorities and parties to contracts with the Issuer and any Guarantor as are necessary for the grants of security contemplated by this Indenture and the Security Documents and to

fulfill the conditions of the Security Documents including, without limitation, delivery of title deeds and all other documents of title relating to the Collateral secured by the Security Documents in the manner as provided for therein and in the Priority Agreement to which any Guarantor is a party, (iii) taking any and all action to perfect the security over the Collateral as contemplated by this Indenture and the Security Documents, (iv) cooperating in all respects with each other in connection with any investigation or other inquiry, including any proceeding initiated by any Person, in connection with the granting of security over the Collateral, (v) keeping the Trustee or Security Agent informed in all material respects of any material communication received by the Issuer or any Guarantor from, or given by them to, any governmental authority or any other Person regarding any matters contemplated by the Security Documents and the Priority Agreement or with respect to the Collateral, and (vi) permitting the Trustee or Security Agent to review any material communication given by the Issuer or any Guarantor to any such governmental authority or any other Person.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the Trustee has no responsibility for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of any lien, Collateral, Security Documents or other security interest.

(a) Subject to this Article 11, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Issuer hereunder or thereunder, that:

(i) the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, or Additional Amounts, if any, in respect to the Notes will be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest and Additional Amounts on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Issuer to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and

(ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise.

Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors will be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

(b) Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder are unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer (including, without limitation, its bankruptcy (faillite), voluntary or juridical liquidation (liquidation volontaire ou judiciaire), composition with creditors (concordat préventif de faillite), reprieve from payment (sursis de paiement), controlled management (gestion contrôlée), fraudulent conveyance (actio pauliana), general settlement with creditors, reorganization or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors

generally), any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenant that this Note Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture.

(c) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Issuer or the Guarantors (including, without limitation, in relation to the Issuer, any commissaire, juge-commissaire, liquidateur or curateur), any amount paid by either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Note Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, will be reinstated in full force and effect.

(d) Each Guarantor agrees that it will not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand,

(i) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 for the purposes of this Note Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and

(ii) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) will forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Note Guarantee. The Guarantors will have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Note Guarantee.

The obligations of each Guarantor under its Note Guarantee pursuant to this Article 11 shall be subject to the terms of Article 12 and to the terms of the Priority Agreement (or any additional intercreditor agreement or priority agreement entered into pursuant to the terms of the Priority Agreement of this Indenture).

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 transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar national, federal, local or state law to the extent applicable to any Note Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount that will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 11, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Note Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

Notwithstanding any other term of this Indenture, each Note Guarantee by Wind or any other Guarantor that is incorporated in Italy shall not in any event exceed an amount equal to 200% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes.

To evidence its Note Guarantee set forth in Section 11.01, each Guarantor hereby agrees that a notation of such Note Guarantee substantially in the form attached as Exhibit D hereto will be endorsed by an Officer or a Director of such Guarantor on each Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and that this Indenture will be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by one of its Officers or directors.

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Note Guarantee set forth in Section 11.01 will remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Note Guarantee.

If an Officer or director whose signature is on this Indenture or on the Note Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note on which a Note Guarantee is endorsed, the Note Guarantee will be valid nevertheless.

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

Wind shall cause any Restricted Subsidiary so required by Section 4.18, to execute a Supplemental Indenture in the form of Exhibit E to this Indenture and a notation of Note Guarantees in the form of Exhibit D to this Indenture in accordance with Section 4.18 and this Article 11.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 11.05 and subject to Article 5 of this Indenture, no Guarantor (other than Wind) may sell, assign, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets to, or consolidate, amalgamate, merge or otherwise combine with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving Person) another Person, unless:

(i) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists; and

(A) the Person to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been made or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation, amalgamation, merger or combination assumes all the obligations of that Guarantor under this Indenture, its Note Guarantee, the Priority Agreement and the Security Documents to which it is a party pursuant to agreements reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee; or

(B) such sale or disposition is undertaken in accordance with, and the Net Proceeds of such sale or other disposition are applied in accordance with, the applicable provisions of this Indenture, including without limitation, Section 4.10.

(b) In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance and upon the assumption by the successor Person, by Supplemental Indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the Note Guarantee endorsed upon the Notes and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be performed by the Guarantor, such successor Person will succeed to and be substituted for the Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named herein as a Guarantor. Such successor Person thereupon may cause to be signed any or all of the Note Guarantees to be endorsed upon all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Issuer and delivered to the Trustee. All the Note Guarantees so issued will in all respects have the same legal rank and

benefit under this Indenture as the Note Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Note Guarantees had been issued at the date of the execution hereof.

(c) Except as set forth in Articles 4 and 5, and notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, nothing contained in this Indenture or in any of the Notes will prevent any consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into Wind or another Guarantor, or will prevent any sale or conveyance of the property of a Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to Wind or another Guarantor.

(i) with respect to a Guarantor other than Wind, in connection with any sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of that Guarantor (including by way of merger, consolidation, amalgamation or combination) or the Capital Stock of that Guarantor to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transactions) Wind or a Restricted Subsidiary of Wind or an Affiliate of Wind or any of its Subsidiaries, if the sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition is undertaken, and the Net Proceeds of such sale or other disposition are applied in accordance with, in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture, including without limitation Section 4.10. Upon delivery by Wind to the Trustee of an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such sale or other disposition was made by Wind in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, including without limitation, Section 4.10, the Trustee will execute any documents reasonably required in order to evidence the release of any Guarantor from its obligations under its Note Guarantee.

(ii) upon the sale of all the Capital Stock of such Guarantor or its parent entity pursuant to an enforcement sale in compliance with the Priority Agreement;

(iii) with respect to a Guarantor other than Wind, if Wind designates any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with this Indenture;

(iv) with respect to a Guarantor other than Wind, upon Covenant Defeasance as provided in Article 8;

(v) upon Legal Defeasance or satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as provided in Articles 8 or 13, respectively;

(vi) upon the release of the guarantee that gave rise to the requirement to guarantee the Notes pursuant to Section 4.18, so long as no Event of Default would arise as a result and no other Indebtedness is at that time guaranteed by the relevant Guarantor that would have otherwise given rise to an obligation to guarantee the Notes pursuant to such covenant had the relevant Restricted Subsidiary not already been a Guarantor; or

The Issuer, the Guarantor and each Holder by accepting a Note agrees, that the Indebtedness evidenced by the Note Guarantees is subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner

provided in the Priority Agreement, to the prior payment in full of all Senior Debt of the Guarantor (whether outstanding on the date hereof or hereafter created, incurred, assumed or guaranteed), and that the subordination is for the benefit of the holders of Senior Debt. Each Holder, by accepting the Notes, shall be deemed to have agreed to and accepted the terms and conditions of the Priority Agreement.

The Issuer and the Guarantor will promptly notify the Trustee and the Paying Agent of any facts known to them that would cause a payment of any Obligations with respect to the Notes or the Note Guarantee to violate the Priority Agreement, but failure to give such notice will not affect the subordination of the Notes to the Senior Debt as provided in the Priority Agreement.

If at any time on or before the date on which the Senior Debt has been paid and fully discharged the Trustee or any Holder receives a payment or distribution in respect of or on account of any Note Guarantee in violation of the terms and conditions of the Priority Agreement, subject to clause 6.1(c) of the Priority Agreement, the Trustee or such Holder, as the case may be, shall promptly pay all amounts and distributions received to the Security Agent to the extent provided for in the Priority Agreement.

Each Holder of Notes, by the Holder’s acceptance thereof, authorizes and directs the Trustee on such Holder’s behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination as provided in the Priority Agreement and this Indenture, and appoints the Trustee to act as such Holder’s attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. If the Trustee does not file a proper proof of claim or proof of debt in the form required in any proceeding referred to in Section 6.09 at least 30 days before the expiration of the time to file such claim, the Representatives (as defined in the Priority Agreement) are hereby authorized to file an appropriate claim for and on behalf of the Holders of the Notes.

Each Holder of Notes, by the Holder’s acceptance thereof, acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing subordination provisions are, and are intended to be, an inducement and a consideration to each holder of Senior Debt of any Guarantor, regardless of whether such Senior Debt was acquired before or after the issuance of the Notes or any relevant Note Guarantee, to acquire and continue to hold, or to continue to hold, such Senior Debt and such holder of Senior Debt shall be deemed conclusively to have relied on such subordination provisions in acquiring and continuing to hold, or in continuing to hold, such Senior Debt.

This Indenture is entered into with the benefit of, and subject to the terms of, the Priority Agreement and each Holder, by accepting a Note, shall be deemed to have agreed to, and accepted the terms and conditions of, the Priority Agreement. The rights and benefits of the Holders and the Trustee (on its own behalf and on behalf of the Holders) are subject to the terms of the Priority Agreement (including, without limitation, Clause 6 (Turnover) thereof). The Senior Creditors and the Hedging Banks (each as defined in the Priority Agreement), acting through their agents or trustees, are granted (or have as a matter of law) third party beneficiary rights in respect of this Section 12.06.

(a) The Trustee will become a party to the Priority Agreement by executing an accession agreement thereto and delivering it to the Security Agent thereunder on or prior to the Issue Date, and each Holder, by accepting such Note, will be deemed to have (1) authorized each of the Trustee and the Security Agent to enter into the Priority Agreement, (2) agreed to be bound by all the terms and provisions of the Priority Agreement applicable to such Holder and (3) irrevocably appointed the Trustee and the Security Agent to act on its behalf and to perform the duties and exercise the rights, powers and discretions that are specifically given to it under the Priority Agreement.

(b) Subject to Articles 4 and 5, at the request of the Issuer or Wind, at the time of, or prior to, the incurrence by the Issuer, Wind or any of Wind’s other Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness permitted pursuant to Section 4.09, Wind, the relevant Restricted Subsidiary, the Trustee and the Security Agent will (without the consent of the Holders of the Notes) enter into an additional intercreditor agreement or priority agreement (each, an “Additional Priority Agreement”) on terms substantially similar to the Priority Agreement (or more favorable to the Holders of the Notes) or an amendment to or an amendment and restatement of the Priority Agreement (which amendment does not adversely affect the rights of Holders of the Notes), provided that such Priority Agreement or Additional Priority Agreement will not impose any personal obligations on the Trustee or adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee and/or the Security Agent under this Indenture, any Additional Priority Agreement or the Priority Agreement. Any such Priority Agreement shall provide for the release of any subordinated guarantee or junior security on the same terms as the Note Guarantees and the HY Notes Security (as defined in the Priority Agreement). Only one such Priority Agreement shall be outstanding at any one time or, if more than one such Priority Agreement is outstanding at any one time, the collective terms of such Priority Agreements must be no more disadvantageous to the Holders of the Notes than if all such Indebtedness was a party to one such Priority Agreement. Regardless of the number of Priority Agreements or Additional Priority Agreements, only one payment blockage notice may be served in any period of 360 consecutive days or in respect of the same event or circumstance and any such payment blockages may not be in effect for more than 179 days in the aggregate during any consecutive 360-day period.

Any such security interest or guarantee shall provide for its release and termination on the same terms as the Collateral or Note Guarantees, as the case may be. Such amendment and/or restatement of the Priority Agreement or additional intercreditor agreement or priority agreement, as the case may be, will not impose any personal obligations on the Trustee or adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee or the Holders of Notes under this Indenture or the Priority Agreement or result in the Trustee or the Holders of the Notes being in breach of, or otherwise in violation of, the Priority Agreement.

Each Holder of Notes, by the Holder’s acceptance thereof, will be deemed to have agreed to and accepted the terms and condition of the Priority Agreement or any amendment and/or restatement of the Priority Agreement or any additional priority agreement or intercreditor agreement contemplated hereby, and the entry into such amendment and/or restatement of the Priority Agreement or additional priority agreement or intercreditor agreement by the Security Agent and the Trustee and the performance of their obligations and the exercise of their rights thereunder and in connection therewith.

At the direction of Wind and without the consent of the Holders of the Notes, the Trustee will upon direction of Wind from time to time enter into one or more amendments and/or restatements of the Priority Agreement or any such additional intercreditor agreement or priority agreement to: (i) cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency therein; (ii) increase the amount of Indebtedness of the types covered thereby that may be incurred by Wind or any of its Subsidiaries that is subject thereto (including, without limitation, the addition of provisions relating to new Indebtedness ranking junior in right of payment to the Notes); (iii) add Guarantors thereto; (iv) further secure the Notes (including Additional Notes); (v) permit payments to be made to Wind or the Issuer that would not otherwise have

been permitted pursuant to the terms thereof or (vi) make any other such change thereto that does not adversely affect the rights of Holders of the Notes in any material respect. Wind will not otherwise direct the Trustee to enter into any amendment and/or restatement of the Priority Agreement or, if applicable, any additional intercreditor agreement or priority agreement, without the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes.

(a) This Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to all Notes, when:

(A) all Notes that have been authenticated, except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the Issuer, have been delivered to a Paying Agent or Registrar for cancellation; or

(B) all Notes that have not been delivered to a Paying Agent or Registrar for cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the mailing of a notice of redemption or otherwise or will become due and payable within one year and the Issuer or a Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, with respect to the Euro Notes, cash in euros, Cash Equivalents consisting of non-callable euro-denominated government securities or a combination of cash in euros and Cash Equivalents consisting of non-callable euro-denominated government securities and, with respect to the Dollar Notes, cash in U.S. dollars, Cash Equivalents consisting of non-callable U.S. dollar-denominated government securities or a combination of cash in U.S. dollars or Cash Equivalents consisting of non-callable U.S. dollar-denominated government securities, in either case, in amounts as will be sufficient, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes not delivered to a Paying Agent or Registrar for cancellation of principal, premium, Additional Amounts (if any) and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption;

(ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or shall occur as a result of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit) and such deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other instrument to which the Issuer or a Guarantor is a party or by which the Issuer or a Guarantor is bound;

(iii) the Issuer (failing which, the Guarantor(s)) have paid or caused to be paid all other amounts payable by it under this Indenture and the Notes; and

(iv) the Issuer has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under this Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at maturity or on the redemption date, as the case may be.

In addition, the Issuer must deliver an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel (which shall be independent of the Issuer) to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied.

(b) With respect to the termination of obligations with respect to Section 13.01(a)(i)(A), the obligations of the Issuer under Section 7.07 shall survive. With respect to the termination of obligations with respect to Section 13.01(a)(i)(B), the obligations of the Issuer in Sections 2.02, 2.03, 2.04, 2.06, 2.07, 2.11, 4.01, 4.02, 4.06, 7.07, 7.08, 8.05, and 8.07 shall survive until the Notes are no longer outstanding. Thereafter, only the obligations of the Issuer in Sections 7.07, 7.08, and 8.07 shall survive. After any such irrevocable deposit, the Trustee upon request shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of the obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture, the Notes and the Subsidiary guarantees, if any, except for those surviving obligations specified above.

(c) Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money has been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 13.01(a)(i)(B), the provisions of Sections 13.02 and 8.06 will survive. In addition, nothing in this Section 13.01 will be deemed to discharge those provisions of Section 7.07, that, by their terms, survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 8.05, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 13.01 shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.10; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

(b) If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with this Section 13.02 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 shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 13.01; provided that if the Issuer has made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or Government Securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

(a) Any notice or communication by the Issuer or the Trustee or the Agent to the others is duly given if in writing in English and delivered in Person or mailed by first class mail (registered or certified, return receipt requested), telecopy or facsimile transmission or overnight air courier guaranteeing next day delivery, to the others’ address:

(b) The Issuer, Wind or the Trustee, by notice to the others may designate additional or different addresses for subsequent notices or communications.

(c) All notices and communications (other than those sent to Holders) shall be deemed to have been duly given: at the time delivered by hand, if personally delivered; five Business Days after being deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, if mailed and confirmed by facsimile; when receipt acknowledged, if telecopied or transmitted by facsimile; and the next Business Day after timely delivery to the courier, if sent by overnight air courier guaranteeing next day delivery.

(d) All notices to the Holders (while any Notes are represented by one or more Global Notes) shall be delivered to DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream, as applicable for communication to entitled account holders or, alternatively, will be valid if published in a leading English language daily newspaper published in the City of London and a leading English language daily newspaper published in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York or such other English language daily newspaper with general circulation in Europe or the United States, as the case may be, as the Trustee may approve. It is expected that any such publication will normally be made in the Financial Times or the Wall Street Journal. So long as the Notes are listed on the Euro MTF Market and the rules and regulations of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange so require, all notices to Holders will also be published in the Luxemburger Wort or in another daily newspaper published in Luxembourg approved by the Trustee or on the website of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (www.bourse.lu). If publication as provided above is not practicable, notice will be given in such other manner, and shall be deemed to have been given on such date, as the Trustee may approve. In the case of Definitive Registered Notes, notices will be mailed to Holders by first-class mail at their respective addresses as they appear on the records of the Registrar, unless stated otherwise in the register kept by, and at the registered office of the Issuer.

(e) Notices given by publication will be deemed given on the first date on which publication is made. Notices delivered to DTC Euroclear and Clearstream will be deemed given on the date when delivered. Notices given by first class mail, postage paid, will be deemed given five calendar days after mailing whether or not the addressee receives it.

(f) If a notice or communication is mailed or published in the manner provided above within the time prescribed, it is duly given, whether or not the addressee receives it.

If the Issuer or Wind mails a notice or communication to Holders or delivers a notice or communication to holders of Book-Entry Interests, it shall mail a copy to the Trustee and each Agent at the same time.

Holders may communicate pursuant to TIA § 312(b) as if this Indenture were required to be qualified under the TIA, with other Holders with respect to their rights under this Indenture or the Notes.

Upon any request or application by the Issuer or Wind to the Trustee to take any action under this Indenture, the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee:

(i) an Officer’s Certificate in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee (which shall include the statements set forth in Section 14.04) stating that, in the opinion of the signers, all conditions precedent and covenants, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with; and/or

(ii) an Opinion of Counsel in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee (which shall include the statements set forth in Section 14.04) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all such conditions precedent and covenants have been complied with.

Each certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture shall include:

(i) a statement that the Person making such certificate or opinion has read such covenant or condition;

(ii) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based;

(iii) a statement that, in the opinion of such Person, he or she has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable him to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition has been satisfied; and

(iv) a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of such Person, such condition or covenant has been satisfied.

The Trustee may make reasonable rules for action by or at a meeting of Holders. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of articles 86 to 94-8 of the Luxembourg act dated 10 August 1915 on commercial companies, as amended, shall not apply in relation to the Notes. The Registrar or Paying Agent may make reasonable rules and set reasonable requirements for its functions.

Each of the parties hereto irrevocably agrees that any suit, action or proceeding arising out of, related to, or in connection with this Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantee or the transactions contemplated hereby, and any action arising under U.S. federal or state securities laws, may be instituted in any U.S. federal or state court located in the State and City of New York, Borough of Manhattan; irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such proceeding; and irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action or proceeding. Each of Issuer and Wind has appointed Corporate Service Corporation as its authorized agent upon whom process may be served in any such suit, action or proceeding which may be instituted in any federal or state court located in the State of New York, Borough of Manhattan arising out of or based upon this Indenture, the Notes or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, and any action brought under U.S. federal or state securities laws (each an “Authorized Agent”). Each of the Issuer and Wind expressly consents to the jurisdiction of any such court in respect of any such action and waives any other requirements of or objections to personal jurisdiction with respect thereto. Such appointment shall be irrevocable unless and until replaced by an agent reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Each of the Issuer and Wind represents and warrants that the Authorized Agent has agreed to act as said agent for service of process, and each of the Issuer and Wind agrees to take any and all action, including the filing of any and all documents and instruments, that may be necessary to continue such appointment in full force and effect as aforesaid. Service of process upon the Authorized Agent and written notice of such service to the Issuer shall be deemed, in every respect, effective service of process upon the Issuer and/or Wind.

No director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Issuer or any Guarantor, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or the Guarantor(s) under the Notes, this Indenture, the Note Guarantees and the Security Documents or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under applicable securities laws.

THIS INDENTURE AND THE NOTES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW TO THE EXTENT THAT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY.

This Indenture may not be used to interpret any other indenture, loan or debt agreement of the Issuer or its Subsidiaries or of any other Person. Any such indenture, loan or debt agreement may not be used to interpret this Indenture.

All agreements of the Issuer in this Indenture and the Notes shall bind its successors. All agreements of the Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successors.

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

The parties may sign any number of copies of this Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent the same agreement.

The Table of Contents, Cross-Reference Table and Headings of the Articles and Sections of this Indenture have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not to be considered a part of this Indenture and shall in no way modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.

Any payment on account of an amount that is payable in euros or U.S. dollars, as the case may be (the “Required Currency”), which is made to or for the account of any Holder of the Notes or the Trustee in lawful currency of any other jurisdiction (the “Judgment Currency”), whether as a result of any judgment or order or the enforcement thereof or the liquidation of the Issuer or a Guarantor, shall constitute a discharge of the Issuer or the Guarantor’s obligation under this Indenture and the Notes or Note Guarantee, as the case may be, only to the extent of the amount of the Required Currency with such Holder or the Trustee, as the case may be, could purchase in the London foreign exchange markets with the amount of the Judgment Currency in accordance with normal banking procedures at the rate of exchange prevailing on the first Business Day following receipt of the payment in the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Required Currency that could be so purchased is less than the amount of the Required Currency originally due to such Holder or the Trustee, as the case may be, the Issuer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Holder or the Trustee, as the case may be, from and against all loss or damage arising out of, or as a result of, such deficiency. This indemnity shall constitute an obligation separate and independent from the other obligations contained in this Indenture or the Notes, shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, shall apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by any Holder or the Trustee from time to time and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order for a liquidated sum in respect of an amount due hereunder or under any judgment or order.

Claims against the Issuer or any Guarantor for the payment of principal or Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes will be prescribed ten years after the applicable due date for payment thereof. Claims against the Issuer or any Guarantor for the payment of interest on the Notes will be prescribed six years after the applicable due date for payment of interest.

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

Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

(1) INTEREST. WIND ACQUISITION FINANCE S.A., a public limited liability company (société anonyme) incorporated under the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, having its registered office at 18-20, Rue Edward Steichen, L-2540, Luxembourg, and registered with the Luxembourg trade and companies register under number B109.825 (the “Issuer”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at [7.375%]¹ [7.000%]² per annum from until maturity. The Issuer will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on April 23^rd and October 23^rd of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each an “Interest Payment Date”). Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance; provided that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date; provided, further, that the first Interest Payment Date shall be . The Issuer shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at a rate that is 1% per annum in excess of the rate then in effect; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest and Additional Amounts (without regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

(2) METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Issuer will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on April 8^th and October 8^th preceding the next Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are cancelled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.11 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. The Notes will be payable as to principal, interest, premium and Additional Amounts, if any, through the Paying Agents as provided in the Indenture. Such payment shall be in [dollars]¹[euro]².

(3) PAYING AGENT, REGISTRAR AND TRANSFER AGENT. Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch in London, The Bank of New York Mellon in New York and The Bank of New York Mellon (Luxembourg) S.A. in Luxembourg will act as Paying Agents. The Bank of New York Mellon (Luxembourg) S.A. will act as Registrar, Transfer Agent and Luxembourg Listing Agent in Luxembourg for so long as the Notes are admitted to trading on the Euro MTF Market and listed on the official list of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and the rules and regulations of the Luxembourg

Stock Exchange so require. Upon notice to the Trustee, the Issuer may change any Paying Agent, Registrar or Transfer Agent; provided, however, that in no event may the Issuer appoint a Principal Paying Agent in any member state of the European Union where the Principal Paying Agent would be obliged to withhold or deduct tax in connection with any payment made by it in relation to the Notes unless the Principal Paying Agent would be so obliged if it were located in all other member states. The Issuer will publish a notice of any change of Paying Agent, Registrar or Transfer Agent in a newspaper having a general circulation in Luxembourg (currently expected to be the Luxemburger Wort) or, to the extent and in the manner permitted by such rules and regulations, posted on the official website of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (www.bourse.lu), in accordance with Section 14.01 of the Indenture.

(4) INDENTURE. The Issuer issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of April 23, 2014 (the “Indenture”) between the Issuer, Wind, BNY Mellon Corporate Trustee Services Limited, The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch, The Bank of New York Mellon and The Bank of New York Mellon (Luxembourg) S.A. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to certain provisions of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (15 U.S. Code §§ 77aaa-77bbbb). The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and such Act for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

(a) At any time prior to April 23, 2017, the Issuer may, at its option, on any one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes (including any Additional Notes) issued under the Indenture [at a redemption price of 107.000% of the principal amount for Euro Notes]⁴ [at a redemption price of 107.375% of the principal amount for Dollar Notes]⁵, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, to such redemption date, with the net cash proceeds of a Public Equity Offering of common stock or ordinary shares of (1) Wind or (2) any Parent Holdco of Wind to the extent the proceeds from such Public Equity Offering are contributed to Wind’s common equity capital or are paid to Wind as consideration for the issuance of common stock or ordinary shares of Wind; provided that:

(1) at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of [Euro Notes][Dollar Notes] originally issued under this Indenture (excluding Notes held by the Issuer, Wind and their respective Affiliates) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption; and

(2) the redemption occurs within 90 days of the date of the closing of the relevant Public Equity Offering.

On or after April 23, 2017, the Issuer may at its option redeem all or a part of the [Euro Notes][Dollar Notes], upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice delivered to each Holder pursuant to Section 3.03 and Section 14.01 of the Indenture at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest and all Additional Amounts, if any, then due on the Notes redeemed, to the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on April 23 of the years indicated below, subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date:

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

(a) To the extent permitted by Wind’s Credit Agreement, the Issuer may on one occasion redeem up to €300.0 million of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes issued under the Indenture (in any combination of Euro Notes and/or Dollar Notes), upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at a redemption price of 103.00% of the principal amount of the relevant Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts (if any) then due to the redemption date on the Notes redeemed, with the Net Proceeds (including if received by a reimbursement of the Intercompany Loan from Wind) from the sale of any Towers Infrastructure assets subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date

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

(a) The Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole but not in part, at its discretion at any time upon giving not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice of redemption to the Holders thereof pursuant to Section 3.03 and Section 14.01 of the Indenture, at a redemption price equal to the principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest to the date fixed by the Issuer for redemption (a “Tax Redemption Date”) and all Additional Amounts (if any) then due and which will become due on the Tax Redemption Date as a result of the redemption or otherwise (subject to the right of Holders of the Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date and Additional Amounts (if any) in respect thereof), if on the next date on which any amount would be payable in respect of the Notes, the Issuer has or would be required to pay Additional Amounts, and the Issuer cannot avoid any such payment obligation by taking reasonable measures available to it, as a result of:

(i) any change in, or amendment to, the laws or treaties (or any regulations, or rulings promulgated thereunder) of a relevant Tax Jurisdiction affecting taxation which change or amendment has not been publicly announced as formally proposed before and which becomes effective on or after the date of the Indenture (or, if the relevant Tax Jurisdiction has been added since the date of the Indenture, the date on which the that relevant Tax Jurisdiction became a Tax Jurisdiction under the Indenture); or

(ii) any change in, or amendment to, the existing official position regarding the application, administration or interpretation of such laws, treaties, regulations or rulings (including a holding, judgment or order by a court of competent jurisdiction or a change in published practice), which change, amendment, application or interpretation has not been publicly announced as formally proposed before and becomes effective on or after the date of the Indenture (or, if the relevant Tax Jurisdiction has been added since the date of the Indenture, the date on which that relevant Tax Jurisdiction became a Tax Jurisdiction under the Indenture).

(b) The Issuer will not give any such notice of redemption earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer would be obligated to make such payment or withholding if a payment in respect of the Notes were then due. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer may not redeem the Notes under this provision if the relevant Tax Jurisdiction became a Tax Jurisdiction after the date of the Indenture and the Issuer is obligated to pay any Additional Amounts as a result of a change in, or an amendment to, the laws or treaties (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder), or any change in or amendment to, any official position regarding the application, administration or interpretation of such laws, treaties, regulations or rules, of that relevant Tax Jurisdiction which, at the time such Tax Jurisdiction became a Tax Jurisdiction under the Indenture, was publicly announced as formally proposed. Prior to the publication or, where relevant, mailing of any notice of redemption of the Notes pursuant to Section 3.03 of the Indenture, the Issuer will deliver to the Trustee an opinion of internationally recognized counsel, to the effect that there has been such change or amendment and otherwise in compliance with Section 14.04 of the Indenture. In addition, before the Issuer publishes or mails notice of redemption of the Notes pursuant to Section 3.03 of the Indenture, it will deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that it cannot avoid its obligation to pay Additional Amounts by the Issuer taking reasonable measures available to it. The Trustee will accept such Officer’s Certificate and opinion of counsel as sufficient evidence of the existence of satisfaction of the conditions precedent as described above, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on the Holders. For the avoidance of doubt, the implementation of European Council Directive 2003/48/EC or any other directive implementing the conclusions of the ECOFIN Council meeting of 26 and 27 November 2000 on the taxation of savings income or any law implementing, or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, such directive will not be a change or amendment for such purposes.

(8) MANDATORY REDEMPTION. The Issuer shall not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.

(a) If a Change of Control occurs, each Holder of Notes will have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase all or any part (in integral multiples of [$1,000 for Dollar Notes][ €1,000 for Euro Notes]; provided that [Dollar Notes of $200,000 or less] [Euro Notes of €100,000 or less] may only be redeemed in whole and not in part) of that Holder’s Notes pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”) at a price in cash (the “Change of Control Payment”) equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased on the date of purchase plus accrued and unpaid interest and all Additional Amounts (if any) then due on the Notes repurchased to the date of purchase, subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date. Within 30 days following a Change of Control, the Issuer will give notice to each Holder describing the circumstances and/or facts that constitute the Change of Control and offering to purchase all Notes on the Change of Control Payment Date specified in the notice given to the Holders pursuant to Section 3.03 of the Indenture.

(b) Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided and within the time period set forth in the Indenture will constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds €35.0 million, within 25 days thereof, the Issuer (or Wind on the Issuer’s behalf) will make an Asset Sale Offer in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture to all Holders of Notes and creditors under any other Pari Passu Indebtedness containing provisions similar to those set forth in Section 4.10 of the Indenture with respect to offers to purchase or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets, to purchase the maximum principal amount (on a pro rata basis) of the Notes and such other Pari Passu Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts then due, if any, to the date of purchase and will be payable in cash and, with respect to other Pari Passu Indebtedness, will be no more than 100% of the principal amount of such other Pari Passu Indebtedness plus accrued and unpaid interest and additional amounts then due, if any, to the date of purchase. The Issuer (or Wind on the Issuer’s behalf) will commence each Asset Sale Offer within 25 days after the date on which the Excess Proceeds exceed €35.0 million by delivering the notice required pursuant to Section 3.10(d) of the Indenture. The Asset Sale Offer shall remain open for a period of 20 Business Days following its commencement and no longer, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law. No later than five Business Days after the termination of the Offer Period, the Issuer shall purchase the principal amount of Notes required to be purchased pursuant to Section 4.10 of the Indenture or, if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered in response to the Asset Sale Offer. Payment for any Notes so purchased shall be made in the same manner as interest payments are made.

If any other Event

of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Upon any such declaration, the Notes shall become due and payable immediately. Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, rescind an acceleration or waive an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences hereunder, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, interest and premium and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes (including in connection with an offer to purchase); provided, however, that the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may rescind an acceleration or waive an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, interest and premium and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes (including in connection with an offer to purchase). Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of the Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or the Indenture or that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders of Notes or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability, except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal, interest, premium or Additional Amounts (if any).

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Indenture, the Issuer and the Trustee are authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Subsequent Guarantor and the Trustee mutually covenant and agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders as follows:

1. CAPITALIZED TERMS. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

(a) To jointly and severally Guarantee to each Holder of a Note, authenticated and delivered by the Trustee, and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, regardless of the validity and enforceability of the Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Issuer under the Indenture or the Notes, that:

(i) the principal of, interest on, premium, and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes will be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal and premium, if any, and if lawful, interest and Additional Amounts of the Issuer to the Holders or the Trustee under the Indenture or the Notes or thereunder will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and

(ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes, that same will be promptly paid in full when due in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Subsequent Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately.

(b) The obligations of the Subsequent Guarantor hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or the Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor.

(c) The following is hereby waived: diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer (including, without limitation, its, bankruptcy (faillite), voluntary or judicial liquidation (iquidiation volontaire ou judiciaire), composition with creditors (concordat préventif de faillite), reprieve from payment (sursis de paiement), controlled management (gestion contrôlée), fraudulent conveyance (actio pauliana), general settlement with creditors, reorganization or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally) any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever.

(d) Except as set forth in Section 5, this Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and the Indenture, and the Subsequent Guarantor accepts all obligations of a Subsequent Guarantor provided for under the terms of the Indenture.

(e) The Subsequent Guarantor waives and will not in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any rights of reimbursement, indemnity or subrogation or any other rights against the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary as a result of any payment by such Subsequent Guarantor under its Guarantee.

(f) As between the Subsequent Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 of the Indenture for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6 of the Indenture, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Subsequent Guarantor for the purpose of this Guarantee.

(g) The Subsequent Guarantor hereby confirms that it is its intention that the Guarantee of the Subsequent Guarantor does not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to the Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee and the Subsequent Guarantor hereby irrevocably agree that after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of the Subsequent Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Subsequent Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Subsequent Guarantor, the obligations of the Subsequent Guarantor will be limited to the obligations of the Subsequent Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

(a) To evidence its Guarantee, the Subsequent Guarantor hereby agrees that a notation of such Guarantee shall be endorsed by an Officer of the Subsequent Guarantor on each Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and that this Supplemental Indenture shall be executed on behalf of the Subsequent Guarantor by one of its Directors or Officers.

(b) The Subsequent Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Guarantee.

(c) If an Officer whose signature is on this Supplemental Indenture or on the Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note on which a Guarantee is endorsed, the Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless.

(d) Upon execution of this Supplemental Indenture, the delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Guarantee set forth in this Supplemental Indenture on behalf of the Subsequent Guarantor.

(a) The Subsequent Guarantor shall not merge, consolidate, amalgamate or otherwise combine with or into or wind up into any Person (whether or not the Subsequent Guarantor is the surviving Person), or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties directly or indirectly (through a sale of shares or assets or otherwise) in one or more related transactions, to any Person, unless:

(i) the Subsequent Guarantor is the surviving or resulting corporation, or the Person formed by or surviving any such merger, consolidation, amalgamation or other combination (if other than the Subsequent Guarantor) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition will have been made, is organized or existing under the laws of any state which is a member of the European Union, Canada, the United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia (such Person, as the case may be, being herein called the “Successor Company”);

(ii) the Successor Company, if other than the Subsequent Guarantor, expressly assumes all the obligations of the Subsequent Guarantor under the Indenture, the Notes, the Supplemental Indenture pursuant to a supplemental indenture or other documents or instruments in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee;

(iii) immediately after such transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists.

(b) In case of any such transaction that complies with Section 4(a) above, such Successor Company shall succeed to and be substituted for the Subsequent Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named herein as a Subsequent Guarantor. Such Successor Company thereupon may cause to be signed any or all of the Guarantees to be endorsed upon all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Issuer and delivered to the Trustee. All the Guarantees so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under the Indenture as the Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of the Indenture as though all of such Guarantees had been issued at the date of the execution hereof.

5. RELEASES. Each Guarantee shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged in accordance with Section 11.06 of the Indenture.

6. NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. No past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, stockholder or agent of any Subsequent Guarantor, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or any Subsequent Guarantor under the Notes, any Guarantees, the Indenture or this Supplemental Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes.

7. SUBORDINATION. The obligations of each Subsequent Guarantor under its Note Guarantee shall be subject to the terms of Article 12 of the Indenture and to the terms of the Priority Agreement.

8. THIS SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE AND THE NOTES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW TO THE EXTENT THAT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY.

9. COUNTERPARTS The parties may sign any number of copies of this Supplemental Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent the same agreement.

10. EFFECT OF HEADINGS. The Section headings herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

11. THE TRUSTEE. The Trustee shall not be responsible in any manner whatsoever for or in respect of the validity or sufficiency of this Supplemental Indenture or for or in respect of the recitals contained herein, all of which recitals are made solely by each Subsequent Guarantor and the Issuer.

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

		Authorized Signatory

This solvency certificate (this “Certificate”) is delivered by WIND Telecomunicazioni S.p.A., a joint stock company organized as a società per azioni under the laws of the Republic of Italy (the “Company”) in connection with the Indenture dated as of April 23, 2014 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Indenture”) (undefined capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Indenture) among Wind, Wind Acquisition Finance S.A. (the “Issuer”), BNY Mellon Corporate Trustee Services Limited as Trustee, The Bank of New York Mellon as U.S. Paying Agent, The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch as Principal Paying Agent, and The Bank of New York Mellon (Luxembourg) S.A. as Luxembourg Listing Agent, Transfer Agent and Registrar. I hereby certify as follows in my capacity as [Chief Executive Officer]/[Chief Financial Officer] of Wind, and not individually:

1. I am, and at all pertinent times mentioned herein, have been the duly qualified and acting [Chief Executive Officer]/[Chief Financial Officer] of Wind. In such capacity I have responsibility for the overall management of the financial affairs of Wind and the preparation of the financial statements of Wind. I am familiar with the properties, business, assets and liabilities of Wind and their business plans for the foreseeable future. I am authorized to execute this Certificate on behalf of Wind.

2. I have carefully reviewed the contents of this Certificate, and I have conferred with counsel for Wind and the Issuer for the purpose of discussing the meaning of its contents.

3. In connection with the preparation of this Certificate, I have made such investigations and inquiries as I deem necessary and reasonably prudent therefor and to accurately make the certifications expressed herein. Specifically, I have relied on historical information, revenues, expenses and other data supplied by Wind’s supervisory personnel directly responsible for the various functions involved. The financial information and assumptions which underlie and form the basis for the representations made in this Certificate were reasonable when made and continue to be reasonable as of the date hereof.

4. To the best of my knowledge, as of the date hereof: (a) Wind has not been served with any summons or other notice in respect of any litigation or other proceeding pending or threatened against or affecting Wind or any of its properties or assets, which, if determined adversely to Wind, would have a materially adverse effect on the businesses, operations, properties, assets, or condition (financial or otherwise) of Wind; and (b) Wind is not in default with respect to any order, writ, injunction, decree, or demand of any court or other governmental or regulatory authority by which Wind is currently bound.

Based on the foregoing, on behalf of Wind, I have reached the following conclusions:

“Fair salable value” means the amount that could be obtained for assets within a reasonable time, either through collection or through sale under ordinary selling conditions by a capable and diligent seller to an interested buyer who is willing (but under no compulsion) to purchase.

5. In reaching the conclusions set forth in this Certificate the undersigned has considered, among other things:

None of Wind, or any of its Subsidiaries intends, in incurring the Permitted Collateral Lien or in incurring (by way of assumption or otherwise) any related obligations or liabilities (contingent or otherwise), to disturb, delay, hinder or defraud either present or future creditors or other Persons to which Wind, the Issuer or any of their Subsidiaries is or are intended to become, on or after the date hereon, indebted.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have executed this Certificate on behalf of Wind in my capacity as [Chief Executive Officer]/[Chief Financial Officer] of Wind (but not individually) as of [DATE] and have no personal liability hereunder.
