The Exchange Notes are to be issued in an exchange offer for a like aggregate original principal amount of currently outstanding 11.625% senior notes due 2023 in accordance with the terms of a Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of April 22, 2016, by and among the Company and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC (“Credit Suisse”), each as representative of the parties named therein as the Initial Purchasers (the “Original Registration Rights Agreement”), the related Registration Rights Joinder, dated as of April 29, 2016, by and among the Company, the guarantors party thereto, and Credit Suisse (the “First Joinder”) and the related Registration Rights Joinder, dated as of December 28, 2016, by and among the Company, QHCCS, LLC as guarantor, and Credit Suisse (the “Second Joinder”, and together with the Original Registration Rights Agreement and the First Joinder, the “Registration Rights Agreement”).
