With Consent of the Holders (a) The Issuer and the Indenture Trustee may amend this Indenture, the Notes and the Security Documents with the written consent of the Required Holders. However, without the consent of each Holder of an outstanding Note affected, an amendment may not: (i) reduce the amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, (ii) reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest on any Note, (iii) reduce the principal of or change the Maturity Date of any Note, (iv) reduce the premium payable upon the redemption of any Note or change the time at which any Note may be redeemed in accordance with Article 3, (v) make any Note payable in money other than that stated in such Note, (vi) expressly subordinate the Notes to any other Indebtedness of the Issuer, (vii) impair the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of or premium, if any, and interest on such Holder’s Notes on or after the due dates therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Notes, (viii) make any change in this Section 8.02, or (ix) release all or substantially all of the Collateral from the Lien of this Indenture and the Security Documents, except as otherwise provided in this Indenture or the Security Documents. It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 8.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. (b) After an amendment under this Section 8.02 becomes effective, the Issuer shall mail to the Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment. The failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section 8.02.
With Consent of Holders of Notes Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture (including, without limitation, Section 3.09, 4.10 and 4.14) and the Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees 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, any existing Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on the Notes, except a payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with any provision of this Indenture or the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantees 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).
With Consent of Holders (a) The Issuer, the Note Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture or the Notes without notice to any Holder but with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes). Subject to Section 6.4, the Holder or Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes may waive compliance by the Issuer and the Note Guarantors with any provision of this Indenture or the Notes. However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver may not: (i) reduce the amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver; (ii) reduce the rate of or change or have the effect of changing the time for payment of interest, including Defaulted Interest, on any Notes; (iii) reduce the principal of or change or have the effect of changing the fixed maturity of any Notes, or change the date on which any Notes may be subject to redemption, or reduce the redemption price therefor; (iv) make any Notes payable in money other than that stated in the Notes; (v) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture entitling each Holder to receive payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Notes on or after the due date thereof or to bring suit to enforce such payment, or permitting Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes to waive Defaults or Events of Default; (vi) amend, change or modify in any material respect any obligations of the Issuer to make and consummate a Change of Control Offer in respect of a Change of Control that has occurred or make and consummate an Asset Sale Offer with respect to any Asset Sale that has been consummated; (vii) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture described under Section 3.21 that adversely affects the rights of any Holder or amend the terms of the Notes in a way that would result in a loss of exemption from Taxes; or (viii) make any change to the provisions of this Indenture or the Notes that adversely affect the ranking of the Notes. (b) It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 9.2 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. (c) After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.2 becomes effective, the Issuer shall mail to Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment, supplement or waiver. The failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.2. (d) The Notes issued on the Issue Date, and any Additional Notes part of the same series, will be treated as a single series for all purposes under this Indenture, including with respect to waivers and amendments. For the purposes of calculating the aggregate principal amount of Notes that have consented to or voted in favor of any amendment, waiver, consent, modifications or other similar action, the Issuer (acting reasonably and in good faith) shall be entitled to select a record date as of which the principal amount of any Notes shall be calculated in such consent or voting process.
Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Noteholders (a) The Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an Issuing Entity Order, also may, with prior notice to the Rating Agencies and with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Securities, by Act of such Holders delivered to the Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee, enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to, or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of, this Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Notes under this Indenture; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall, without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note affected thereby: (i) change the date of payment of any installment of principal of or interest on any Note, or reduce the principal amount thereof, the Interest Rate thereon or the Redemption Price with respect thereto, change the provisions of this Indenture relating to the application of collections on, or the proceeds of the sale of, the Trust Estate to payment of principal of or interest on the Notes, or change any place of payment where, or the coin or currency in which, any Note or the interest thereon is payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of the provisions of this Indenture requiring the application of funds available therefor, as provided in Article V, to the payment of any such amount due on the Notes on or after the respective due dates thereof (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date); (ii) reduce the percentage of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Securities, the consent of the Holders of which is required for any such supplemental indenture, or the consent of the Holders of which is required for any waiver of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and their consequences provided for in this Indenture; (iii) modify or alter the provisions of the proviso to the definition of the term “Outstanding”; (iv) reduce the percentage of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Securities required to direct the Indenture Trustee to direct the Issuing Entity to sell or liquidate the Trust Estate pursuant to Section 5.04; (v) modify any provision of this Section except to increase any percentage specified herein or to provide that certain additional provisions of this Indenture or the Basic Documents cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note affected thereby; (vi) modify any of the provisions of this Indenture in such manner as to affect the calculation of the amount of any payment of interest or principal due on any Note on any Payment Date (including the calculation of any of the individual components of such calculation) or to affect the rights of the Holders of Notes to the benefit of any provisions for the mandatory redemption of the Notes contained herein; (vii) permit the creation of any lien ranking prior to or on a parity with the lien of this Indenture with respect to any part of the Trust Estate or, except as otherwise permitted or contemplated herein, terminate the lien of this Indenture on any property at any time subject hereto or deprive the Holder of any Note of the security provided by the lien of this Indenture; or (viii) except as provided in Section 5.04(a)(iv), liquidate the Receivables when the proceeds of such sale would be insufficient to fully pay the Notes. (b) The Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to receive and conclusively rely upon an Officer’s Certificate certifying as to whether or not any Notes would be affected by any supplemental indenture and any such determination shall be conclusive upon the Holders of all Notes, whether theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder. The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any such determination made in good faith. (c) It shall not be necessary for any Act of Noteholders under this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof. (d) Promptly after the execution by the Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Section, the Indenture Trustee shall transmit to the Holders of the Notes to which such amendment or supplemental indenture relates a notice setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture. Any failure of the Indenture Trustee to transmit such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture.

Each of the Administrator, the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee is hereby authorized to join in the execution of any amendment and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained. (b) Except as otherwise provided herein, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Administrator, when authorized by an Issuer Order, may, also without the consent of any of the Noteholders and with prior written notice to the Rating Agencies by the Issuer, as evidenced in writing to the Indenture Trustee and the Administrator, enter into an amendment hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to, or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of, the Indenture or of this Series Supplement of modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders under the Indenture or under this Series Supplement; provided, however, that such action shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Noteholder; provided, further, that with respect to tax matters, such action shall not be deemed to adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Noteholder if, for federal income tax purposes, the action does not cause the issuing entity to be treated as an association or publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation, or the Notes that were characterized as debt at the time of issuance to fail to qualify as debt.
