The Notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior basis by Holdings and the other guarantors named in Schedule II hereto (together with Holdings, the “Guarantors”; the Guarantors collectively with the Issuer, the “Companies”). The Notes will be issued pursuant to an indenture to be dated as of August 8, 2024 (the “Indenture”) among the Issuer, the Guarantors, U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Elavon Financial Services DAC, as paying agent, and Elavon Financial Services DAC, as registrar and transfer agent. The Notes will have the benefit of the guarantees (the “Guarantees” and, together with the Notes, the “Securities”) provided for in the Indenture. The use of the neuter in this Purchase Agreement (this “Agreement”) shall include the feminine and masculine wherever appropriate. Certain terms used herein are defined in Section 19 hereof.

As described in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Memorandum (each as defined below), the Issuer intends to use the net proceeds from this offering, together with cash on hand, to pay at maturity the Issuer’s outstanding 2.625% senior notes due in September 2024 and to pay related fees and expenses.

This Agreement, the Securities, the Indenture and the agreements and instruments to which Holdings or any of its subsidiaries is a signatory relating to the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and the issuance and sale of the Securities contemplated hereby, collectively, are referred to herein as the “Transaction Documents”.

The sale of the Securities to the Initial Purchasers will be made without registration of the Securities under the Act in reliance upon exemptions from the registration requirements of the Act.

In connection with the sale of the Securities, the Companies have prepared a preliminary offering memorandum dated July 30, 2024 (including the information incorporated by reference therein, the “Preliminary Memorandum”), setting forth or including a description of the terms of the Securities, the terms of the offering of the Securities, a description of the Companies and any material developments relating to the Companies occurring after the date of the most recent historical financial statements included therein. As used herein, “Pricing Disclosure Package” shall mean the Preliminary Memorandum, as supplemented or amended by the written communications listed on Annex A hereto in the most recent form that has been prepared and delivered by the Companies to the Initial Purchasers in connection with their solicitation of offers to purchase Securities prior to the time when sales of the Securities were first made (the “Time of Execution”).

If the sale of the Securities provided for herein is not consummated because any condition to the obligations of the Initial Purchasers set forth in Section 6 hereof is not satisfied, because of any termination pursuant to Section 10 hereof or because of any refusal, inability or failure on the part of any Company to perform any agreement herein or comply with any provision hereof other than by reason of a default by any of the Initial Purchasers, the Companies, jointly and severally, agree to reimburse the Initial Purchasers severally through the Representative promptly after demand for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) that shall have been incurred by them in connection with the proposed purchase and sale of the Securities.

8. Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) The Companies, jointly and severally, agree, to indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser, the directors, officers, employees, affiliates and agents of each Initial Purchaser and each person who controls any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or other Federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Pricing Disclosure Package, any Issuer Written Communication, the Final Memorandum (or in any supplement or amendment thereto) or any information provided by any Company to any holder or prospective purchaser of Securities pursuant to Section 5(h), or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Companies will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Final Memorandum, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Companies by or on behalf of any Initial Purchaser specifically for inclusion therein. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Companies may otherwise have.

-25-

(b) Each Initial Purchaser, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, each Company, each of their directors, each of their officers, each of their employees, each of their agents and each person who controls a Company within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Companies to each Initial Purchaser, but only with reference to written information relating to such Initial Purchaser furnished to the Companies by or on behalf of such Initial Purchaser specifically for inclusion in the Pricing Disclosure Package, the Final Memorandum (or in any amendment or supplement thereto) or any Issuer Written Communication. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which any Initial Purchaser may otherwise have. The Companies acknowledge that the statements set forth in the paragraph related to stabilization, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids and the fifth sentence in the fifteenth paragraph, each under the heading “Plan of Distribution” in the Preliminary Memorandum and Final Memorandum, constitute the only information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Initial Purchasers for inclusion in the Pricing Disclosure Package and Final Memorandum (or in any amendment or supplement thereto).

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses; and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to appoint counsel of the indemnifying party’s choice at the indemnifying party’s expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel retained by the indemnified party or parties except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s election to appoint counsel to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest; (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party; (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action; or (iv) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action)

-26-

unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and does not include any statement as to or any findings of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party. An indemnifying party shall not be liable under this Section 8 to any indemnified party regarding any settlement or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent is consented to by such indemnifying party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(d) In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 8 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party for any reason, the Companies and the Initial Purchasers, severally and not jointly, agree to contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending same) (collectively “Losses”) to which one or more of the Companies and the Initial Purchasers may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Companies on the one hand and by the Initial Purchasers on the other hand from the offering of the Securities; provided, however, that in no case shall any Initial Purchaser (except as may be provided in any agreement among the Initial Purchasers relating to the offering of the Securities) be responsible for any amount in excess of the purchase discount or commission applicable to the Securities purchased by such Initial Purchaser hereunder. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason, the Companies and the Initial Purchasers shall contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Companies on the one hand and of the Initial Purchasers on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by the Companies shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Issuer, and benefits received by the Initial Purchasers shall be deemed to be equal to the total purchase discounts and commissions. Relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or any alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information provided by the Companies on the one hand or the Initial Purchasers on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Issuer, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8(d), no Initial Purchaser shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the discount received by such Initial Purchaser in connection with the Securities distributed by it. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 8, each person who controls an Initial Purchaser within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee, affiliate and agent of an Initial Purchaser shall have the same rights to contribution as such Initial Purchaser, and each person who controls a Company within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and each officer, director, employee and agent of a Company shall have the same rights to contribution as such Company, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this paragraph (d).

-27-

9. Default by an Initial Purchaser. If any one or more Initial Purchasers shall fail to purchase and pay for any of the Securities agreed to be purchased by such Initial Purchaser hereunder and such failure to purchase shall constitute a default in the performance of its or their obligations under this Agreement, the remaining Initial Purchasers shall be obligated severally to take up and pay for (at the respective purchase prices set forth in Section 2 and in the respective proportions which the amount of Securities set forth opposite their names in Schedule I hereto bears to the aggregate amount of Securities set forth opposite the names of all the remaining Initial Purchasers) the Securities which the defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed to purchase; provided, however, that in the event that the aggregate amount of Securities which the defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed to purchase shall exceed 10% of the aggregate amount of Securities set forth in Schedule I hereto, the remaining Initial Purchasers shall have the right to purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to purchase any, of the Securities, and if such nondefaulting Initial Purchasers do not purchase all the Securities, this Agreement will terminate without liability to any nondefaulting Initial Purchaser or the Companies. In the event of a default by any Initial Purchaser as set forth in this Section 9, the Closing Date shall be postponed for such period, not exceeding five Business Days, as the Representative shall determine in order that the required changes in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Memorandum or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Nothing contained in this Agreement and no action taken under this paragraph shall relieve any defaulting Initial Purchaser of its liability, if any, to the Companies or any nondefaulting Initial Purchaser for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.

10. Termination. This Agreement shall be subject to termination in the absolute discretion of the Representative, by notice given to the Issuer prior to delivery of and payment for the Securities, if at any time prior to such time (i) trading in any of Holdings’ securities shall have been suspended by the Commission or the New York Stock Exchange or trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange, the Luxembourg Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq Global Market shall have been suspended or limited or minimum prices shall have been established on any such exchange or Nasdaq Global Market; (ii) a banking moratorium shall have been declared either by Federal or New York State authorities or by authorities in the European Union or any member state thereof; or (iii) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities, declaration by the United States or the European Union or any member state thereof of a national emergency or war or other calamity or crisis the effect of which on financial markets is such as to make it, in the sole judgment of the Representative, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Securities as contemplated by the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Memorandum (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto).

-28-

11. Representations and Indemnities to Survive. The respective indemnities, rights of contribution, qualified financial contracts resolution stay and bail-in provisions, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Companies or their respective officers and of the Initial Purchasers set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Initial Purchasers or the Companies or any of the officers, directors, employees, agents or controlling persons referred to in Section 8 hereof, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Securities. The provisions of Sections 7, 8 and 11 hereof shall survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement.

ANNEX A

[Attached]

EXHIBIT A

Selling Restrictions for Offers

and Sales Outside the United States

1. (a) The Securities have not been and will not be registered under the Act and may not be offered or sold (x) within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons except pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Act and (y) outside the United States except in accordance with Regulation S under the Act. Each Initial Purchaser represents and agrees that, except as otherwise permitted by Section 4(a)(i) of the Agreement to which this is an exhibit, it has offered and sold the Securities, and will offer and sell the Securities, (i) as part of their distribution at any time; and (ii) otherwise until 40 days after the later of the commencement of the offering and the Closing Date (the “distribution compliance period”), only in accordance with Rule 903 of Regulation S under the Act. Accordingly, each Initial Purchaser represents and agrees that neither it, nor any of its Affiliates nor any person acting on its or their behalf has engaged or will engage in any directed selling efforts with respect to the Securities, and that it and they have complied and will comply with the offering restrictions requirement of Regulation S. Each Initial Purchaser agrees that, at or prior to the confirmation of sale of Securities (other than a sale of Securities pursuant to Section 4(a)(i) of the Agreement to which this is an exhibit), it shall have sent to each distributor, dealer or person receiving a selling concession, fee or other remuneration that purchases Securities from it during the distribution compliance period a confirmation or notice to substantially the following effect:

“The Securities covered hereby have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”) and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons (i) as part of their distribution at any time or (ii) otherwise until 40 days after the later of the commencement of the offering and the date of closing of the offering, except in either case in accordance with Regulation S or Rule 144A under the Act. Terms used above have the meanings given to them by Regulation S.”

(b) Each Initial Purchaser also represents and agrees that it has not entered and will not enter into any contractual arrangement with any distributor with respect to the distribution of the Securities, except with its Affiliates or with the prior written consent of the Companies.

(c) Terms used in this section have the meanings given to them by Regulation S.

2. Each Initial Purchaser, severally and not jointly represents and warrants and agrees with the Companies that:

(a) it has not offered, sold or otherwise made available and will not offer, sell or otherwise make available any Notes to any retail investor in the European Economic Area. For the purposes of this provision: (a) the expression “retail investor” means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a “retail client” as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, “MiFID II”); (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive EU 2016/97 (as amended), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (iii) not a qualified investor as defined in the Prospectus Regulation; and (b) the expression “offer” includes the communication in any form and by any means of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and the Notes so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase or subscribe for the Notes;

(b) it has only communicated or caused to be communicated and will only communicate or cause to be communicated an invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity (within the meaning of Section 21 of the FSMA) received by it in connection with the issue or sale of the Notes in circumstances in which Section 21(1) of the FSMA does not apply to the Companies;

(c) it has not offered, sold or otherwise made available and will not offer, sell or otherwise make available any Notes to any retail investor in the United Kingdom. For the purposes of this provision: (a) the expression “retail investor” means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (8) of Article 2 of Regulation (EU) 2017/565 as it forms part of United Kingdom domestic law by virtue of the EUWA; or (ii) a customer within the meaning of the provisions of the FSMA and any rules or regulations made under the FSMA to implement Directive (EU) 2016/97, where that customer would not qualify as a professional client, as defined in point (8) of Article 2(1) of Regulation (EU) 600/2014 as it forms part of United Kingdom domestic law by virtue of the EUWA; or (iii) not a qualified investor as defined in Article 2(e) of Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 as it forms part of United Kingdom domestic law by virtue of the EUWA (the “UK Prospectus Regulation”); and (b) the expression “offer” includes the communication in any form and by any means of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and the Notes to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase or subscribe for the Notes;

(d) it has complied and will comply with all applicable provisions of the FSMA with respect to anything done by it in relation to the Notes in, from or otherwise involving the United Kingdom;

(e) with respect to offers and sales made in France, that it has not offered or sold, and will not offer or sell, directly or indirectly, Securities to the public in France (other than to qualified investors). It has only made and will only make offers, sales and distribution of the Notes in France to qualified investors (investisseurs qualifiés), as defined in point (e) of Article 2 of Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 June 2017 as amended from time to time and any applicable French law and regulation implementing the Prospectus Regulation and related regulations in France; and

(f) with respect to offers and sales made in Canada, it has only made and will only make offers, sales and distribution of the Notes in Canada to purchasers (i) purchasing, or deemed to be purchasing, as principal that are “accredited investors”, as defined in National Instrument 45-106 - Prospectus Exemptions or subsection 73.3(1) of the Securities Act (Ontario), as applicable, and (ii) that are “permitted clients”, as defined in National Instrument 31-103 - Registration Requirements, Exemptions and Ongoing Registrant Obligations.
