The Investment Amount Increase Notes and the Additional Notes shall have substantially similar terms as the Initial Notes other than with respect to: (i) the date of issuance, (ii) the issue price, (iii) the date from which interest shall accrue and the amount of interest payable on the first Interest Payment Date and (iv) ‘CUSIP” Numbers, if any.

Upon issuance, each Certificated Note shall be registered in the name of the Purchaser, duly executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee upon receipt of an Authentication Order.

(d) Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Initial Notes and the Investment Amount Increase Notes, if any, represented by the Certificated Notes (1) offered and sold to “qualified institutional buyers” (as defined in Rule 144A) shall be exchanged for Notes issued in book-entry form and shall be represented by a single, permanent global note in fully registered form, without coupons, substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto and shall bear the legends set forth in Section 2.08(a) and (b) (the “Restricted Global Note”) and (2) offered and sold to Non-U.S. Persons shall be issued in book-entry form and shall be represented by a single, permanent global note in definitive, fully registered form, without coupons, substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto and shall bear the legends set forth in Section 2.08(a) and (b) (the “Regulation S Global Note,” and together with the Restricted Global Note, collectively, the “Initial Global Notes”).

(e) In the event all or a portion of the Initial Notes, the Investment Amount Increase Notes or any Additional Notes are tendered in an Exchange Offer, such Notes or the portions thereof being exchanged shall be exchanged for a single, permanent global note in definitive, fully registered form, without coupons, substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto (the “Exchange Global Notes”) and shall bear the legends set forth in Section 2.08(c) hereof. Upon issuance, each Exchange Global Note shall be registered in the name of “Cede & Co.,” as nominee of DTC, duly executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, and deposited with or on behalf of DTC.

Section 2.03 Execution and Authentication. Two Officers shall execute the Notes for the Company by manual or facsimile signature.

A Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual or facsimile signature of the Trustee. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture.

The Trustee shall, upon receipt of a written order of the Company signed by one or more Officers (an “Authentication Order”), authenticate Notes for original issue on the Issue Date in aggregate principal amount not to exceed $1,150,000,000 (other than as provided in Section 2.09 hereof). The Trustee shall authenticate Investment Amount Increase Notes and Additional Notes thereafter (so long as permitted by the terms of this Indenture) for original issue upon receipt of one or more Authentication Orders in aggregate principal amount as specified in such order (other than as provided in Section 2.09 hereof). Each such Authentication Order shall specify the amount of Notes to be authenticated, whether the Notes are to be Initial Notes, Investment Amount Increase Notes, Additional Notes or Exchange Notes and whether the Notes are to be issued as Certificated Notes or Global Notes or such other information as the Trustee may reasonably request.

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Company to authenticate Notes. An authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with Holders or an Affiliate of the Company.

Section 2.04 Registrar and Paying Agent. The Company shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”) and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”). The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Company may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar and the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address

of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Company fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

The Company hereby appoints the Trustee to act as the Registrar and Paying Agent and to act as Custodian with respect to the Global Notes.

Section 2.05 Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. The Company shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium or interest or Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes, and will notify the Trustee in writing of any default by the Company in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company or a Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for the money. If the Company or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Company, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes.

Section 2.06 Holder Lists. The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of all Holders and shall otherwise comply with TIA § 312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee at least seven Business Days before each Interest Payment Date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders and the Company shall otherwise comply with TIA § 312(a).

Section 2.07 Transfer and Exchange.

(a) By its acceptance of any Initial Note or Investment Amount Increase Note represented by a certificate bearing the legend set forth in Section 2.08(a) hereof (the “Private Placement Legend”), each Holder of, and beneficial bearer of an interest in, such Note acknowledges the restrictions on transfer of such Note and agrees that it shall transfer such Note only in accordance with such restrictions. Each purchaser (other than the Purchasers) of the Notes and each Person to whom the Notes are transferred shall, prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date (as defined in the Private Placement Legend), be deemed to have acknowledged, represented and agreed to the matters and restrictions on transfer set forth therein. Upon the registration of transfer, exchange or replacement of an Initial Note or Investment Amount Increase Note not bearing the Private Placement Legend, the Trustee shall upon receipt of an Authentication Order deliver an Initial Note or Initial Notes or Investment Amount Increase Note or Investment Amount Increase Notes, as the case may be, that do not bear the Private Placement Legend. Upon the registration of transfer, exchange or replacement of an Initial Note or Investment Amount Increase Note bearing the Private Placement Legend, the Trustee shall upon receipt of an Authentication Order deliver an Initial Note or Initial Notes or Investment Amount Increase Note or Investment Amount Increase Notes, as the case may be, bearing the Private Placement Legend, unless such legend may be removed from such Note as provided in this Section 2.07. If the Private Placement Legend has been removed from an Initial Note or Investment Amount Increase Note, as the case may be, as provided herein, no other Initial Note or Investment Amount Increase Note issued in exchange for all or any part of such Initial Note or Investment Amount Increase Note, as the case may be, shall bear such legend, unless the Company has reasonable cause to believe that such other Initial Note or Investment Amount Increase Note represents a “restricted security” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act and instructs the Trustee in writing to cause a legend to appear thereon. Each Initial Note or Investment Amount Increase Note shall bear the Private Placement Legend unless and until:

(1) a transfer of such Initial Note or Investment Amount Increase Note is made pursuant to an effective Shelf Registration Statement, in which case the Private Placement Legend shall be removed from such Note so transferred at the request of the Holder; or

(2) there is delivered to the Company such satisfactory evidence, which may include an opinion of independent counsel licensed to practice law in the State of New York, as may reasonably be requested by the Company confirming that neither such legend nor the restrictions on transfer set forth therein are required to ensure that transfers of such Initial Note or Investment Amount Increase Note shall not violate the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act; provided, that the Trustee shall not be required to determine but may rely on a determination made by the Company with respect to the sufficiency of any such evidence; and upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange for such Initial Note, an Initial Note or Initial Notes or such Investment Amount Increase Note, an Investment Amount Increase Note or Investment Amount Increase Notes representing the same aggregate principal amount of the Initial Note or the Investment Amount Increase Note, as the case may be, being exchanged) without such legend.

(b) The Initial Global Notes or Exchange Global Notes, as the case may be, shall be exchanged by the Company for one or more Initial Certificated Notes or Exchange Certificated Notes, as applicable, if (i) DTC (1) has notified the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as, or ceases to be, a clearing agency registered under Section 17A of the Exchange Act and (2) a successor to DTC registered as a clearing agency under Section 17A of the Exchange Act is not able to be appointed by the Company within 90 calendar days or (ii) DTC is at any time unwilling or unable to continue as depositary and the Company is not able to appoint a successor to DTC within 90 calendar days. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Company shall, at the request of the Trustee or the Holder thereof, exchange all or part of the Initial Global Note or Exchange Global Note, as the case may be, for one or more Initial Certificated Notes or Exchange Certificated Notes, as applicable. Whenever a Global Note is exchanged for one or more Initial Certificated Notes or Exchange Certificated Notes, as the case may be, it shall be surrendered by the Holder thereof to the Trustee and cancelled by the Trustee. All Initial Certificated Notes or Exchange Certificated Notes issued in exchange for a Global Note or a portion thereof shall be registered in such names, and delivered, as DTC shall instruct the Trustee. Any Initial Certificated Notes issued pursuant to this Section 2.07 shall include the Private Placement Legend, except as set forth in Section 2.07(a) hereof.

(c) Any Initial Notes or Investment Amount Increase Notes that are presented to the Trustee for exchange pursuant to an Exchange Offer shall be exchanged for Exchange Notes of equal principal amount upon surrender to the Trustee in accordance with the terms of the Exchange Offer. Whenever any Initial Notes or Investment Amount Increase Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate and deliver to the surrendering Holder thereof, Exchange Notes in the same aggregate principal amount as the Initial Notes and Investment Amount Increase Notes so surrendered.

(d) Any Holder of a Global Note shall, by acceptance of such Global Note, agree that transfers of beneficial interests in such Global Note may be effected only through a book-entry system maintained by such Holder (or its agent), and that ownership of a beneficial interest in the Notes represented thereby shall be required to be reflected in book-entry form. Transfers of a Global Note shall be limited to transfers in whole and not in part, to DTC, its successors and their respective nominees. Interests of beneficial owners in a Global Note shall be transferred in accordance with the rules and procedures of DTC (or its successors). If a Global Note is issued, DTC shall act as Depositary with respect to such Global Notes.

Section 2.09 Replacement Notes. If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Company and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the

Company shall issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are met. If required by the Trustee or the Company, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Company may charge for its expenses in replacing a Note.

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

Section 2.10 Outstanding Notes. The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this Section as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.11 hereof, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Note.

If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.09 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a bona fide purchaser.

If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue.

If the Paying Agent (other than the Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on a redemption date or maturity date, money sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding and shall cease to accrue interest.

Section 2.11 Treasury Notes. In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Company, or by any Affiliate of the Company other than a Permitted Holder, shall be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded.

Section 2.12 Temporary Notes. Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes.

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

Section 2.13 Cancellation. The Company at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall destroy canceled Notes (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act). The Company may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

Section 2.14 Defaulted Interest. If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it shall 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, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment. The Company 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 Company (or, upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company) shall mail or cause to be mailed to Holders a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid.

Section 2.15 Notice of the Occurrence of the Triggering Event. The Company shall provide prompt written notice to the Trustee, upon the occurrence of the Triggering Event, of the effective date of such event for purposes of the issuance of the Investment Amount Increase Notes and Interest Rate Change (as defined in the Notes).

Section 2.16 Record Date. The Company may set a record date for purposes of determining the identity of Holders entitled to vote or to consent to any action by vote or consent authorized or permitted by Sections 7.04 and 7.05.

Section 2.17 CUSIP Numbers. The Company in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or the omission of such numbers. The Company will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the CUSIP numbers.

Section 4.09 Limitation on Incurrence of Indebtedness Ranking Senior to the Notes. The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume, guarantee, become liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to, or otherwise become responsible for payment of (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness which is senior in right of payment to the Notes, in the case of the Company, or any Indebtedness which is senior in right of payment to its Note Guarantee, in the case of any Note Guarantor, in each case other than Indebtedness of the Company and its Subsidiaries outstanding on the Issue Date, reduced by the amount of any scheduled amortization payments or mandatory prepayments when actually paid or permanent reductions thereon.

Section 4.20 Limitation on Layering Indebtedness.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Company shall not, and shall not permit any Note Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, incur any Indebtedness (including Permitted Indebtedness) that is subordinate in right of payment to any Senior Indebtedness of the Company or such Note Guarantor, as the case may be, unless such Indebtedness is either:

(1) equal in right of payment with the Notes or such Note Guarantor’s Note Guarantee, as the case may be; or

(2) expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or such Note Guarantor’s Note Guarantee, as the case may be.

For the purposes of this Indenture, Indebtedness that is unsecured is not deemed to be subordinated or junior to Secured Indebtedness merely because it is unsecured, and Senior Indebtedness is not deemed to be subordinated or junior to any other Senior Indebtedness merely because it has a junior priority with respect to the same collateral.

Section 4.21 Further Assurances; Insurance.

(ii) makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors; or

(iii) admits in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due; or

(e) the Company or any Significant Subsidiary takes any corporate action in furtherance of any such actions in this clause (7).

(8) any Note Guarantee ceases to be in full force and effect (except as contemplated by the terms of the Indenture) or is declared null and void in a judicial proceeding or any Note Guarantor denies or disaffirms its obligations under the Indenture or its Note Guarantee; or

(9) the occurrence of any of the following

(i) except as permitted by the terms thereof, any Note Lien Security Document is held to be unenforceable or invalid in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction (and such holding remains unstayed for a period of 30 days) or otherwise ceases for any reason to be fully enforceable and such event continues for a period of 30 days after the Company receives written notice specifying the event (and demanding that it be remedied) from the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes; or

(ii) the Company or any Guarantor, or any Person acting on behalf of any of them, denies or disaffirms, in writing, any obligation of the Company or such Guarantor set forth in or arising under any Note Lien Security Document, except to the extent of any Note Lien purported to be granted thereunder which purports to encumber Collateral that has been released in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and the Note Lien Security Documents.

Section 7.02 Acceleration. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clauses (6) or (7) above with respect to the Company) shall occur and be continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of outstanding Notes may declare the principal of and accrued interest and Additional Interest, if any, on all the Notes to be due and payable by notice in writing to the Company and the Trustee specifying the respective Event of Default and that it is a “notice of acceleration” (the “Acceleration Notice”), and the same shall become immediately due and payable.

If an Event of Default specified in clauses (6) or (7) above with respect to the Company occurs and is continuing, then all unpaid principal of, and premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, on all of the outstanding Notes shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.

At any time after a declaration of acceleration with respect to the Notes as described in the preceding paragraph, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may rescind and cancel such declaration and its consequences:

(1) if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree;

(2) if all existing Events of Default have been cured or waived except nonpayment of principal or interest that has become due solely because of the acceleration;

(3) to the extent the payment of such interest and Additional Interest, if any, is lawful, interest on overdue installments of interest and overdue principal, which has become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration, has been paid;

(4) if the Company has paid the Trustee its reasonable compensation and reimbursed the Trustee for its expenses, disbursements and advances; and

(5) in the event of the cure or waiver of an Event of Default of the type described in clauses (6) or (7) of Section 7.01 hereof, the Trustee shall have received an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel that such Event of Default has been cured or waived. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

Section 7.03 Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, premium, if any, interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes, the Security Agreement or this Indenture.

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.

Section 7.04 Waiver of Past Defaults. Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice in writing to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes 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, premium, if any, interest or Additional Interest, if any, on, the Notes (including in connection with a Change of Control Offer or other offer to purchase) (provided, however, that the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration). 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.

Section 7.05 Control by Majority. Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may, by written notice, 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 it. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders of Notes or that may involve the Trustee in any personal liability.

Section 7.06 Limitation on Suits. A Holder of a Note may pursue a remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes only if:

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

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

(c) such Holder or Holders offer and, if requested, provide to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense;

(d) 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

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

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

Section 7.07 Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes so held, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Notes (including in connection with an offer to purchase), or to bring suit 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.

Section 7.08 Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default specified in Section 7.01(1) or (2) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company for the whole amount of principal of, premium, if any, interest and Additional Interest, if any, remaining unpaid on the Notes and interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, 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 and any amounts due the Trustee under Section 8.07 hereof.

Section 7.09 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 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 allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company (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 in writing 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 8.07 hereof. 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 8.07 hereof 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.

Section 7.10 Priorities. If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article, it shall pay out the money in the following order:

First: to the Trustee, its agents and attorneys for amounts due under Section 8.07 hereof, including payment of all compensation, expense and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection;

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

Third: to the Company 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 7.10.

Section 7.11 Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as 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 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder of a Note pursuant to Section 7.07 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes.

ARTICLE VIII

TRUSTEE

Section 8.01 Duties of Trustee.

(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 Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture 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 in the absence of bad faith on the Trustee’s part; provided, however, that the Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they substantially conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein).

(i) this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section 8.01;

(e) The Trustee may refuse to perform any duty or exercise any right or power unless it receives indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense.

Section 8.02 Rights of Trustee.

(a) The Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person.

(e) The Trustee may consult with counsel, and the advice or any opinion of counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or omitted by it hereunder in good faith reliance and in accordance with such written advice or opinion of counsel.

(h) 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 have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.

(i) In no event shall the Trustee be required to take notice of any default or breach hereof or any Event of Default hereunder, except for Events of Default specified in Section 7.01(1) or 7.01(2) hereof, unless and until the Trustee shall have received from a Holder of a Note or from the Company express written notice of the circumstances constituting the breach, default or Event of Default and stating that said circumstances constitute an Event of Default hereunder.

(j) If the Trustee is acting as Paying Agent or Registrar hereunder, the rights and protections afforded to the Trustee pursuant to this Article VIII will also be afforded to such Paying Agent and Registrar.

Section 8.03 Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or any Affiliate of the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Paying Agent, Registrar, co-registrar or co-paying agent may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee must comply with Sections 8.10 and 8.11 hereof.

Section 8.04 Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee (i) is not responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture, (ii) shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Company or upon the Company’s direction under any provision of this Indenture, (iii) shall not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee and (iv) shall not be responsible for any statement of the Company in this Indenture, other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, or in any prospectus used in the sale of any of the Notes.

Section 8.05 Notice of Defaults. The Trustee will give to the Holders notice of any Default with regard to the Notes actually known to a Responsible Officer within 90 days after receipt of such knowledge and in the manner and to the extent provided in TIA § 313(c), and otherwise as provided in Section 15.02 of this Indenture; provided, however, that except in the case of a Default in payment of the principal of, premium, if any, interest or Additional Interest, if any, on any Note, the Trustee will be protected in withholding notice of Default if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding of the notice is in the interests of the Holders of the Notes.

Section 8.06 Reports by Trustee. On or before the sixtieth day after each October 15 beginning with the October 15 following the date of this Indenture, the Trustee will mail to each Holder, at the name and address which appears on the registration books of the Company, and to each Holder who has, within the two years preceding the mailing, filed that person’s name and address with the Trustee for that purpose and each Holder whose name and address have been furnished to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.06 hereof, a brief report dated as of that October 15 which complies with TIA § 313(a). Reports to Noteholders pursuant to this Section 8.06 shall be transmitted in the manner and to the extent provided in TIA § 313(c). The Trustee also will comply with TIA § 313(b).

A copy of each report will at the time of its mailing to Holders be filed with each stock exchange on which the Notes are listed and also with the Commission. The Company will promptly notify the Trustee when the Notes are listed on any stock exchange and of any delisting of the Notes.

Section 8.07 Compensation and Indemnity. The Company 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 Company 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 reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel. The Company shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Trustee and its officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents, from and against and reimburse the Trustee for any and all claims, expenses, obligations, liabilities, losses, damages, injuries (to person, property, or natural resources), penalties, stamp or other similar taxes, actions, suits, judgments, reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s and agent’s fees and expenses) of whatever kind or nature regardless of their merit, demanded, asserted or claimed against the Trustee directly or indirectly relating to, or arising from, claims against the Trustee by reason of its participation in the transactions contemplated hereby, including without limitation all reasonable costs required to be associated with such claims for damages to persons or property, and reasonable attorneys’ and consultants’ fees and expenses and court costs except to the extent caused by the Trustee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The provisions of this Section 8.07 shall survive the termination of this Indenture or the earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee.

To secure the Company’s obligations to make payments to the Trustee under this Section 8.07, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, other than money or property held in trust to pay principal or interest on particular Notes. The obligations of the Company under this Section 8.07 to compensate the Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee for reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or the earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee.

When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Sections 7.01(6) or (7) hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services of the Trustee are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

For purposes of this Section 8.07, “Trustee” will include any predecessor Trustee, but the willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith of any Trustee shall not affect the rights of any other Trustee under this Section 8.07.

Section 8.08 Replacement of Trustee. The Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Company. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Company and may appoint a successor Trustee. The Company may remove the Trustee if:

(a) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 8.10;

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

(d) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting.

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

No removal or appointment of a Trustee will be valid if that removal or appointment would conflict with any law applicable to the Company.

A successor Trustee will deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Immediately after that, the retiring Trustee will, subject to the Lien provided for in Section 8.07 hereof, transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee will become effective, and the successor Trustee will have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. A successor Trustee will mail notice of its succession to each Holder.

If a successor Trustee does not take office on or before the sixtieth day after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company or the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 8.10, any Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section, the Company’s obligations under Section 8.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

Section 8.09 Successor Trustee by ▇▇▇▇▇▇, etc. If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust assets to, another Person, the resulting, surviving or transferee Person will, without any further act, be the successor Trustee.

If at the time a successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Trustee succeeds to the trusts created by this Indenture any of the Notes have been authenticated but not delivered, the successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of the predecessor Trustee, and deliver the Notes which were authenticated by the predecessor Trustee; and if at that time any of the Notes have not been authenticated, the successor to the Trustee may authenticate those Notes in its own name as the successor to the Trustee; and in either case the certificates of authentication will have the full force provided in this Indenture for certificates of authentication.

Section 8.10 Eligibility; Disqualification. The Trustee will at all times satisfy the requirements of TIA § 310(a). The Trustee will at all times have (or shall be a member of a bank holding company system whose parent corporation has) a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most recently published annual report of condition, which will be deemed for this paragraph to be its combined capital and surplus. The Trustee will comply with TIA § 310(b).

Section 8.11 Preferential Collection of Claims. The Trustee shall comply with TIA § 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA § 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA § 311(a) to the extent indicated therein.

LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

Section 9.01 Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The Company may, at the option of its Board of Directors evidenced by a Board Resolution set forth in an Officers’ Certificate, at any time, elect to have either Section 9.02 or 9.03 hereof be applied to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article 9.

Section 9.02 Legal Defeasance and Discharge. Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 9.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 9.02, the Company and the Note Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 9.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes and Note Guarantees on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 9.05 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Notes and this Indenture, including that of the Note Guarantors (and the Trustee, on written demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (a) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive solely from the trust fund described in Section 9.04 hereof, and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, interest and Additional Interest, if any, on such Notes when such payments are due, (b) the Company’s obligations with respect to such Notes under Article 2 and Section 4.02 hereof, (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the Company’s obligations in connection therewith and (d) this Article 9. Subject to compliance with this Article 9, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 9.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 9.03 hereof.

Section 9.03 Covenant Defeasance. Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 9.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 9.03, the Company and the Note Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 9.04 hereof, be released from its obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.16, 4.17, 4.18, 4.20 and 4.21 hereof with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 9.04 hereof 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, with respect to the outstanding Notes, the Company may 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 7.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Company’s exercise under Section 9.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 9.03 hereof, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 9.04 hereof, Sections 7.01(4) and (5) hereof shall not constitute Events of Default.

Section 9.04 Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. The following shall be the conditions to the application of either Section 9.02 or 9.03 hereof to the outstanding Notes:

In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance:

(a) the Company must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders, cash in United States Dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the written opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, interest and Additional Interest, 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 any other amounts owing under this Indenture, if in the case of an optional redemption date prior to electing to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, the Company has delivered to the Trustee an irrevocable notice to redeem all of the outstanding Notes on such redemption date;

(b) in the case of an election under Section 9.02 hereof, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the State of New York reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that (i) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (ii) since the date of this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to 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;

(c) in the case of an election under Section 9.03 hereof, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the State of New York reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to 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;

(d) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or insofar as Events of Default from bankruptcy or insolvency events are concerned, at any time in the period ending on the 91st day after the date of deposit;

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

(f) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Company with the intent of preferring the Holders over any other creditors of the Company or with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any other creditors of the Company or others;

(g) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for or relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, have been complied with; and

(h) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that, assuming no intervening bankruptcy of the Company on or after the date of deposit and on or before the 91st day following the date of deposit and that no Holder is an insider of the Company, after the 91st day following the date of deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the opinion of counsel required by clause (b) above with respect to Legal Defeasance need not be delivered if all Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (1) have become due and payable or (2) will become due and payable on the maturity date within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company.

Section 9.05 Deposited Money and Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. Subject to Section 9.06 hereof, all money and non-callable Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 9.04 hereof 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 Company acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, interest and Additional Interest, if any, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 9.04 hereof 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.

Anything in this Article 9 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon the written request of the Company any money or non-callable Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 9.04 hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 9.04(a) hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

Section 9.06 Repayment to Company. Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, interest or Additional Interest, if any, on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, and premium, if any, interest or Additional Interest, if any, has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on its written request or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease.

Section 9.07 Reinstatement. If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any United States dollars or non-callable Government Securities in accordance with Section 9.02 or 9.03 hereof, 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 Company’s and the Note Guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 9.02 or 9.03 hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 9.02 or 9.03 hereof, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Company makes any payment of principal of, premium, if any, interest or Additional Interest, if any, on any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company 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.

ARTICLE X

AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER

Section 10.01 Without Consent of Holders of Notes. Notwithstanding Section 10.02 of this Indenture, the Company, any Note Guarantor (with respect to its Note Guarantee or this Indenture) and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Notes or any Note Guarantee without the consent of any Holder of a Note:

(a) to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency that does not adversely affect in any material respect the rights hereunder of any Holder of the Notes;

(b) to provide for certificated Notes in addition to or in place of uncertificated Notes or to alter the provisions of Article 2 hereof (including the related definitions) in a manner that does not materially adversely affect any Holder;

(c) to provide for the assumption of the Company’s or any Note Guarantor’s obligations to the Holders by a successor to the Company or any such Note Guarantor, respectively pursuant to Article 6 hereof;

(d) to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of the Notes or that does not adversely affect in any material respect the rights hereunder of any Holder of the Notes;

(e) to release a Note Guarantor from its obligations under its Note Guarantee, the Notes or this Indenture in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture or to add Note Guarantees with respect to the Notes;

(f) to provide additional Note Lien Collateral as security for the Notes or to release Note Liens in favor of the Note Lien Collateral Agent in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture;

(g) to issue Additional Notes in accordance with Section 2.01 hereof;

(h) to comply with requirements of the Commission in order to effect or thereafter maintain the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA; or

(i) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment under this Indenture of a successor Trustee.

Upon the written request of the Company or any Note Guarantor accompanied by, to the extent necessary, a Board Resolution authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 8.02 hereof, the Trustee shall join with the Company or any such Note Guarantor, as the case may be, in the execution of any amended or supplemental indenture 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 shall not be obligated to enter into such amended or supplemental indenture which it believes affects its own rights, duties, indemnities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

Section 10.02 With Consent of Holders of Notes. Except as provided below in this Section 10.02, the Company, the Note Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture (including

Section 4.15 hereof), the Notes and any Note Guarantee with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding voting as a single class (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes), and, subject to Sections 7.04 and 7.07 hereof, any existing Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, 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, the Notes or any Note Guarantee may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes voting as a single class (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes).

Upon the written request of the Company or any Note Guarantor accompanied by a Board Resolution authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, 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 8.02 hereof, the Trustee shall join with the Company or any such Note Guarantor in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or supplemental indenture directly affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental indenture.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders of Notes under this Section 10.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section becomes effective, the Company shall mail to the Holders affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental indenture or waiver. Subject to Sections 7.04 and 7.07 hereof, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding voting as a single class may waive in writing compliance in a particular instance by the Company with any provision of this Indenture, the Notes or any Note Guarantee. However, without the written consent of each Holder affected, an amendment or waiver under this Section 10.02 may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder):

(a) reduce the amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment;

(b) reduce the rate of or change or have the effect of changing the time for payment of interest, including defaulted interest and Additional Interest, on any Notes;

(c) 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;

(d) make any Notes payable in money other than that stated in the Notes;

(e) make any change in provisions of this Indenture protecting the right of each Holder to receive payment of principal of and interest (including Additional Interest) on such Note 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 Notes to waive Defaults or Events of Default;

(f) after the Company’s obligation to purchase Notes arises thereunder, amend, change or modify in any material respect the obligation of the Company to make and consummate a Change of Control Offer in the event of a Change of Control, modify any of the provisions or definitions with respect thereto;

(g) except as expressly permitted by this Indenture, modify or change any provision of this Indenture or the related definitions affecting the subordination or ranking of the Notes in a manner which adversely affects the Holders; or

(h) except as expressly permitted by this Indenture, eliminate, modify or change any provision of this Indenture or the related definitions affecting the Note Guarantees in a manner which adversely affects the Holders.

Section 10.03 Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes shall be set forth in a amended or supplemental indenture that complies with the TIA as then in effect.

Section 10.04 Revocation and Effect of Consents. Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder 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 or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the waiver, supplement or amendment becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder.

Section 10.05 Notation on or Exchange of Notes. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Company in exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver.

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

Section 10.06 Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc. The Trustee shall sign any amended or supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article 10 if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities, indemnities or immunities of the Trustee. Neither the Company nor any Note Guarantor may sign an amendment or supplemental indenture until the respective Board of Directors approves it. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 8.01 hereof) shall be fully protected in relying conclusively upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 15.04 hereof, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture.

ARTICLE XI

NOTE GUARANTEES

Section 11.01 Note Guarantees. Each Note Guarantor hereby fully, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, jointly and severally with each other Note Guarantor, to each Holder of the Notes, the Trustee and the Note Lien Collateral Agent the full and punctual payment when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes and all other monetary obligations of the Company under this Indenture (all the foregoing being hereinafter

collectively called the “Company Obligations”). Each Note Guarantor further agrees (to the extent permitted by law) that the Company Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from it, and that it shall remain bound under this Article 11 notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Company Obligation.

Each Note Guarantor waives presentation to, demand of payment from and protest to the Company of any of the Company Obligations and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. Each Note Guarantor waives notice of any default under the Notes or the Company Obligations. The obligations of each Note Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by (a) the failure of any Holder to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Company or any other Person under this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement or otherwise; (b) any extension or renewal of any thereof; (c) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement; (d) the release of any security held by any Holder or the Trustee for the Company Obligations or any of them; (e) the failure of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy against any other Note Guarantor; or (f) any change in the ownership of the Company.

Each Note Guarantor further agrees that its Note Guarantee herein constitutes a Guarantee of payment when due (and not a Guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder to any security held for payment of the Company Obligations.

Except as expressly set forth in Sections 9.02, 9.03, 11.02 and 11.03 of this Indenture, the obligations of each Note Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than payment of the Company Obligations in full), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Company Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Note Guarantor herein shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any Holder to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Company Obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Note Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of such Note Guarantor as a matter of law or equity.

Each Note Guarantor further agrees that its Note Guarantee herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of or interest or Additional Interest, if any, on any of the Company Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company or otherwise.

In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder has at law or in equity against any Note Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Company to pay any of the Company Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, each Note Guarantor hereby promises to and shall, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Holders an amount equal to the sum of (i) the unpaid amount of such Company Obligations then due and owing and (ii) accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, on such Company Obligations then due and owing (but only to the extent not prohibited by law) and except as provided in Section 11.03 of this Indenture.

Each Note Guarantor further agrees that, as between such Note Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the Company Obligations guaranteed hereby may be

accelerated as provided in this Indenture for the purposes of its Note Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Company Obligations guaranteed hereby and (y) in the event of any such declaration of acceleration of such Obligations, such Company Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Note Guarantor for the purposes of this Note Guarantee.

Each Note Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Trustee, the Note Lien Collateral Agent or the Holders in enforcing any rights under this Section 11.01.

Section 11.02 Termination, Release and Discharge. Subject to Article 6 of this Indenture, each Note Guarantor may consolidate with or merge into or sell all or substantially all of its property and assets to the Company, another Note Guarantor or a Person other than the Company or another Note Guarantor (whether or not affiliated with the Note Guarantor).

Notwithstanding the foregoing and the other provisions of this Indenture, in the event a Note Guarantor is sold or disposed of (whether by merger, consolidation, the sale of its Capital Stock or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets (other than by lease) and whether or not the Note Guarantor is the surviving corporation in such transaction) to a Person which is not the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company, such Note Guarantor shall be released from its obligations under its Note Guarantee if:

(a) the sale or other disposition is in compliance with this Indenture, including, without limitation, Article 6 of this Indenture; and

(b) all the obligations of such Note Guarantor under all Indebtedness of the Company and all other Note Guarantors terminate upon consummation of such transaction.

Section 11.03 Limitation of Note Guarantors’ Liability. Each Note Guarantor, and by its acceptance hereof each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the guarantee by such Note Guarantor pursuant to its Note Guarantee not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of the Federal Bankruptcy Code, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Holders and each Note Guarantor hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of each Note Guarantor shall be limited to the maximum amount as shall, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Note Guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Note Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Note Guarantor under its Note Guarantee or pursuant to Section 11.04 of this Indenture, result in the obligations of such Note Guarantor under its Note Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under federal or state law. This Section 11.03 is for the benefit of the creditors of each Note Guarantor.

Section 11.04 Contribution. In order to provide for just and equitable contribution among the Note Guarantors, the Note Guarantors agree, that in the event any payment or distribution is made by any Note Guarantor (a “Funding Guarantor”) under its Note Guarantee, such Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each other Note Guarantor (if any) in a pro rata amount based on the Adjusted Net Assets of each Note Guarantor (including the Funding Guarantor) for all payments, damages and expenses incurred by that Funding Guarantor in discharging the Company’s obligations with respect to the Notes or any other Note Guarantor’s obligations with respect to its Note Guarantee.

ARTICLE XII

SUBORDINATION OF NOTES

Section 12.01 Agreement to Subordinate. The Company agrees, and each Holder by accepting a Note agrees, that the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on, and other Indebtedness evidenced by, the Notes is subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in this Article 12, to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness (whether outstanding on the date hereof or hereafter incurred) of the Company, shall rank equally in right of payment with all future Senior Subordinated Indebtedness of the Company and shall be senior in right of payment to all future Subordinated Indebtedness of the Company, and that the subordination is for the benefit of the holders of Senior Indebtedness; provided, however, that payment from the money or proceeds of Government Securities held in trust pursuant to Section 9.05 of this Indenture will not be subordinated to any Senior Indebtedness or subject to this Article 12.

Section 12.02 Liquidation; Dissolution; Bankruptcy. In the event of:

(1) a total or partial liquidation or a dissolution of the Company;

(2) a reorganization, bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership of or similar proceeding relating to the Company or its property; or

(3) an assignment for the benefit of creditors or marshaling of the Company’s assets and liabilities, then

the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled to receive payment in full in cash or Cash Equivalents in respect of Senior Indebtedness (including interest accruing after, or which would accrue but for, the commencement of any proceeding at the rate specified in the applicable Senior Indebtedness, whether or not a claim for such interest would be allowed in such proceeding) before the Holders of the Notes shall be entitled to receive any payment or distribution other than Junior Securities (as defined below), in the event of any payment or distribution of the assets or securities of the Company. In addition, until the Senior Indebtedness is paid in full in cash or Cash Equivalents, any payment or distribution to which Holders of the Notes would be entitled but for the subordination provisions of this Indenture shall be made to holders of the Senior Indebtedness as their interests may appear, except that the Holders of the Notes may receive (a) Capital Stock and (b) debt securities, in each case that are subordinated in right of payment to such Senior Indebtedness (or any securities or debt instruments distributed in lieu thereof) to at least the same extent as the Notes (“Junior Securities”). If a payment or distribution is made to Holders of the Notes that, due to the subordination provisions, should not have been made to them, the Holders shall hold it in trust for the holders of Senior Indebtedness and pay the payment or distribution over to holders of Senior Indebtedness, as their interests may appear.

Section 12.03 Default on Senior Indebtedness. The Company may not pay principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, or other payment obligations in respect of, the Notes or make any deposit pursuant to Section 9.04(a) of this Indenture and may not otherwise repurchase, redeem or retire any Notes (collectively, “Pay the Notes”) if:

(1) any payment in respect of Senior Indebtedness is not paid when due in cash or Cash Equivalents; or

(2) any other default on Senior Indebtedness occurs and the maturity of the Senior Indebtedness is accelerated in accordance with its terms;

unless, in either case, the default has been cured or waived and any such acceleration has been rescinded or such Senior Indebtedness has been paid in full in cash or Cash Equivalents. However, the Company may Pay the Notes if the Company and the Trustee receive written notice approving such payment from the representative of the Senior Indebtedness with respect to which either of the events set forth in clause (1) or (2) of the immediately preceding sentence has occurred and is continuing.

Section 12.04 When Distribution Must be Paid Over. In the event that the Trustee or any Holder receives any payment of any Indebtedness with respect to the Notes at a time when the Trustee or such Holder, as applicable, has actual knowledge that such payment is prohibited by Section 12.03 of this Indenture, such payment shall be held by the Trustee or such Holder, in trust for the benefit of and, upon written request, shall be paid forthwith over and delivered to, the holders of Senior Indebtedness as their interests may appear or their representative under the indenture or other agreement (if any) pursuant to which Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, for application to the payment of all obligations with respect to Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay such obligations in full in accordance with their terms, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of Senior Indebtedness.

With respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, the Trustee undertakes to perform only such obligations on the part of the Trustee as are specifically set forth in this Article 12, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and shall not be liable to any such holders if the Trustee shall pay over or distribute to or on behalf of Holders or the Company or any other Person money or assets to which any holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled by virtue of this Article 12, except if such payment is made as a result of the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Trustee.

Section 12.05 Subrogation. After all Senior Indebtedness is irrevocably paid in full in cash or Cash Equivalents reasonably satisfactory to the holders thereof and until the Notes are paid in full, Holders shall be subrogated (equally and ratably with all other Senior Subordinated Indebtedness pari passu with the Notes) to the rights of holders of Senior Indebtedness to receive distributions applicable to Senior Indebtedness to the extent that distributions otherwise payable to the Holders have been applied to the payment of Senior Indebtedness. A distribution made under this Article 12 to holders of Senior Indebtedness that otherwise would have been made to Holders is not, as between the Company and Holders, a payment by the Company on the Notes.

Section 12.06 Relative Rights. This Article defines the relative rights of Holders and holders of Senior Indebtedness. Nothing in this Indenture shall:

(1) impair, as between the Company and Holders, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay principal of and interest on the Notes in accordance with their terms;

(2) affect the relative rights of Holders and other creditors of the Company other than their rights in relation to holders of Senior Indebtedness; or

(3) prevent the Trustee or any Holder from exercising its available remedies upon a Default or Event of Default, subject to the rights of holders and owners of Senior Indebtedness to receive distributions and payments otherwise payable to Holders.

If the Company fails because of this Article 12 to pay principal of or interest on a Note on the due date, the failure is still a Default or Event of Default.

Section 12.07 Subordination May Not Be Impaired by the Company. No right of any holder of Senior Indebtedness to enforce the subordination of the Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes shall be impaired by any act or failure to act by the Company or any Holder or by the failure of the Company or any Holder to comply with this Indenture.

Section 12.08 Distribution or Notice to Representative. Whenever a distribution is to be made or a notice given to holders of Senior Indebtedness, the distribution may be made and the notice given to their representative.

Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article 12, the Trustee and the Holders shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction or upon any certificate of such representative or of the liquidating trustee or agent or other Person making any distribution to the Trustee or to the Holders for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of Senior Indebtedness and other Indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article 12.

Section 12.09 Authorization to Effect Subordination. Each Holder of a Note by the Holder’s acceptance thereof authorizes and directs the Trustee on the Holder’s behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination as provided in this Article 12, and appoints the Trustee to act as the Holder’s attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.

Section 12.10 Subordination of Note Guarantees. The obligations of each Note Guarantor under its Note Guarantee are subordinated in right of payment to the obligations of such Note Guarantor under its Guarantor Senior Indebtedness in the same manner and to the same extent that the Notes are subordinated to Senior Indebtedness of the Company pursuant to this Article 12.

Section 12.11 Amendment to the Subordination Provisions of this Indenture. No amendment may be made to this Article 12 that adversely affects the rights of any holder of Senior Indebtedness or Guarantor Senior Indebtedness then outstanding unless the holders of such Indebtedness (or any group or representative thereof authorized to give a consent) consent to such change.

ARTICLE XIII

NOTE LIEN COLLATERAL

Section 13.01 Note Lien Collateral and Note Lien Security Documents. The due and punctual payment of the principal of and interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes 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 Interest, if any, on the Notes and performance of all other obligations of the Company to the Holders of Notes or the Trustee or the Note Lien Collateral Agent under this Indenture and the Notes, according to the terms hereunder or thereunder, are secured as provided in the Note Lien Security Documents. Wilmington Trust Company is initially appointed to act as the Note Lien Collateral Agent. Each Holder of Notes, by its acceptance thereof, consents and agrees to the terms of the Note Lien Security Documents (including, without limitation, the provisions providing for foreclosure and release of Note Lien Collateral) as the same may be in effect or may be amended, modified or waived from time to time in accordance with their terms and the terms of this Indenture, and authorizes and directs the Trustee and the Note Lien Collateral Agent to enter into the Note Lien Security Documents to which they are a party, bind the Holders to the terms set forth in such Note Lien Security Documents and to perform and observe their respective obligations and exercise their respective rights thereunder in accordance therewith; provided, however,

that if any of the provisions of the Note Lien Security Documents limits, qualifies or conflicts with a provision of the TIA that is required to be a part of and govern this Indenture, such TIA provision shall control. The Company will deliver to the Trustee copies of all documents delivered to the Note Lien Collateral Agent pursuant to the Note Lien Security Documents and will comply with the provisions of Section 4.21 hereof. The Note Lien Security Documents may be amended, supplemented or modified in accordance with the terms thereof.

All of the rights, protections and privileges granted to the Trustee hereunder shall inure to the benefit of the Note Lien Collateral Agent acting under this Indenture, including, without limitation, Article VIII hereof, and under all of the Note Lien Security Documents. Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof, neither the Trustee nor the Note Lien Collateral Agent shall have a duty as to any Note Lien Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income thereon or as to preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. Neither the Trustee nor the Note Lien Collateral Agent shall be responsible for the filing, form, content or renewal of any financing or continuation statements or recording any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise perfecting or maintaining the perfection of any security interest in the Note Lien Collateral. The Trustee and the Note Lien Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Note Lien Collateral in its possession if the Note Lien Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property and shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of the Note Lien Collateral, by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or bailee. Neither the Trustee nor the Note Lien Collateral Agent shall be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Note Lien Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens in any of the Note Lien Collateral or for insuring the Note Lien Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Note Lien Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Note Lien Collateral.

Neither the Trustee nor the Note Lien Collateral Agent shall have a duty to act outside of the United States in respect of any Note Lien Collateral located in the jurisdiction other than the United States. At any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirement of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Note Lien Collateral may at the time be located, each of the Trustee and the Note Lien Collateral Agent shall have the power and may execute and deliver all instruments necessary to appoint one or more persons to act as a co-trustee or co-Note Lien Collateral Agent, or separate trustee or separate collateral agent, and to vest in such person such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Trustee or the Note Lien Collateral Agent, as the case may be, may consider necessary or desirable. No co-trustee or separate trustee or co-collateral agent or separate collateral agent hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 8.08 hereof and no notice to Noteholders of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee or co-collateral agent or separate collateral agent shall be required. Every separate trustee and co-trustee or separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions:

(i)

all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Trustee or the Note Lien Collateral Agent shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (or by the Note Lien Collateral Agent and such separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent), except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed the Trustee or the Note Lien Collateral Agent shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee or separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent;

(ii)

no trustee or collateral agent hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee or collateral agent hereunder or under any Note Lien Security Document;

(iii)

any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee or the Note Lien Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees (or separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent), as effectively as if given to each of them.

Section 13.02 Equal and Ratable Sharing of Note Lien Collateral by Holders of Note Lien Debt. Notwithstanding (1) anything to the contrary contained in the Note Lien Security Documents; (2) the time of incurrence of any series of Note Lien Debt; (3) the order or method of attachment or perfection of any Liens securing any series of Note Lien Debt; (4) the time or order of filing or recording of financing statements, mortgages or other documents filed or recorded to perfect any Lien upon any Note Lien Collateral; (5) the time of taking possession or control over any Note Lien Collateral; (6) that any Note Lien may not have been perfected or may be or have become subordinated, by equitable subordination or otherwise, to any other Lien; or (7) the rules for determining priority under any law governing relative priorities of Liens, but subject in all cases to the priorities set forth in Section 7.10 hereof:

(A)

all Note Liens at any time granted by the Company or any Note Guarantor will secure, equally and ratably, all present and future Note Lien Obligations; and

(B)

all Proceeds of all Note Liens at any time granted by the Company or any Note Guarantor will be allocated and distributed equally and ratably on account of the Note Lien Debt and other Note Lien Obligations.

This Section 13.02 is intended for the benefit of, and will be enforceable as a third party beneficiary by, each present and future holder of Note Lien Obligations, each present and future Note Lien Representative and the Note Lien Collateral Agent as holder of Note Liens. The Note Lien Representative of each future series of Note Lien Debt will be required to deliver a Lien Sharing and Priority Confirmation to the Note Lien Collateral Agent and the Trustee at the time of incurrence of such series of Note Lien Debt.

Section 13.03 Recording; Certificates and Opinions.

(a) The Company will furnish to the Trustee the opinions required by TIA §314(b). The Company will furnish to the Trustee the annual opinion required by TIA §314(b)(2) beginning May 1, 2009.

(b) To the extent applicable, the Company will cause TIA §313(b), relating to reports, and TIA §314(d), relating to the release of property or securities subject to the Lien of the Note Lien Security Documents, to be complied with. Any certificate or opinion required by TIA §314(d) may be made by an Officer of the Company except in cases where TIA §314(d) requires that such certificate or opinion be made by an independent Person, which Person will be an independent engineer, appraiser or other expert selected by or reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph, the Company will not be required to comply with all or any portion of TIA §314(d) if it determines, in good faith based on advice of counsel (which may be internal counsel), that under the terms of TIA §314(d) or any interpretation or guidance as to the meaning thereof of the SEC and its staff, including “no action” letters or exemptive orders, all or any portion of TIA §314(d) is inapplicable to one or a series of released Note Lien Collateral.

(c) If, in connection with any release of Note Lien Collateral pursuant to this Indenture, the Company requests that the Trustee or Note Lien Collateral Agent confirm such release or provide any release or termination statement with respect to such release, the Company will furnish to the Trustee and to the Note Lien Collateral Agent (i) any certificate or opinion required by TIA §314(d) as set forth in Section 13.03(b) hereof, (ii) an Officers’ Certificate attaching such releases or termination statements and (iii) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that (A) the documents furnished pursuant to TIA §314(d) satisfy the requirements of TIA §314(d) or that no such documents are required by TIA §314(d) in connection with such release, and (B) all conditions precedent to the release of Note Lien Collateral in this Indenture, the Note Lien Security Documents have been complied with, and such release complies with the foregoing requirements. Upon receipt of the foregoing, the Trustee and the Note Lien Collateral Agent will provide such requested confirmation or release or termination statement. The Trustee and the Note Lien Collateral Agent may, to the extent permitted by Sections 8.01 and 8.02 hereof, accept as conclusive evidence of compliance with this Section 13.03 the appropriate statements contained in such documents and such Opinion of Counsel.

Section 13.04 Freedom to Deal. So long as the Note Lien Collateral Agent has not exercised its rights with respect to Note Lien Collateral, or as may otherwise be provided in the Note Lien Security Documents, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Company and the Note Guarantors will have the right, as against the Note Lien Collateral Agent, the Note Lien Representatives, the Holders and any holders of other Note Lien Obligations:

(1) to remain in possession and retain exclusive control of the Note Lien Collateral; to conduct ordinary course activities with respect to the Note Lien Collateral; to operate, alter or repair the Note Lien Collateral; and to collect, invest and dispose of any income therefrom; and

(2) to sell or otherwise dispose of any property subject to the Note Liens, subject to the restrictions and obligations set forth in Sections 6.01 and 11.02 hereof.

Section 13.05 Enforcement of Note Liens. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy, including directing the Note Lien Collateral Agent to enforce the Note Liens securing the Notes, subject to the provisions of Sections 8.01 and 8.02 hereof; and the Trustee will be subject to such instructions as may be given to it by the Holders of a majority in outstanding principal amount of the Notes to direct (and in its sole discretion and without the consent of the Holders may direct) on behalf of the Holders as the Note Lien Representative with respect to the Notes, the Note Lien Collateral Agent to take all actions it deems necessary in order to:

(1) foreclose upon or otherwise enforce any or all of the Note Liens;

(2) enforce any of the terms of the Note Lien Security Documents; or

(3) collect and receive payment of any and all of the Note Lien Obligations.

Section 13.06 Relative Rights. Nothing in the Note Lien Security Documents will:

(1) impair, as between the Company and the Holders, the obligation of the Company to pay principal of, premium and interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes in accordance with their terms or any other Obligation of the Company or any Note Guarantor;

(2) affect the relative rights of Holders as against any other creditors of the Company or any Note Guarantor (other than holders of Senior Notes, certain Permitted Liens or other Note Liens and except as expressly set forth in the Note Lien Security Documents);

(3) restrict the right of any Holder to sue for payments that are then due and owing;

(4) restrict or prevent any Holder or any holder of other Note Lien Obligations, the Note Lien Collateral Agent or any Note Lien Representative from exercising any of its rights or remedies upon a Default or Event of Default; or

(5) restrict or prevent any Holder or any holder of other Note Lien Obligations, the Note Lien Collateral Agent or any Note Lien Representative from taking any lawful action in an insolvency or liquidation proceeding.

Section 13.07 Authorization of Receipt of Funds by the Trustee Under the Note Lien Security Documents. The Trustee is authorized to receive any funds for the benefit of the Holders distributed under the Note Lien Security Documents, and to make further distributions of such funds to the Holders of Notes according to the provisions of this Indenture.

Section 13.08 Release of Liens in Respect of Notes. The Note Liens upon the Note Lien Collateral will be released and no longer secure the Notes outstanding under this Indenture or any other Note Lien Obligations, and the right of the Holders or any holder of other Note Lien Obligations to the benefits and proceeds of the Note Liens on the Note Lien Collateral will terminate and be discharged:

(1) upon satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Article 14 hereof;

(2) upon Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance;

(3) upon payment in full of all Notes outstanding under this Indenture and all outstanding Note Lien Obligations due and payable under this Indenture at the time the Notes are paid in full and discharged;

(4) in whole or in part, with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes in accordance with Section 10.02 hereof;

(5) upon the taking of Note Lien Collateral by eminent domain, condemnation or in similar circumstances;

(6) in the case of Note Liens on Note Lien Collateral owned by any Guarantor, upon the release of the Note Guarantee of such Guarantor in accordance with Section 11.02 hereof;

(7) as to any Note Lien Collateral that is sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by the Company or any Note Guarantor to a Person that is not (either before or after such sale, transfer or disposition) the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company in connection with the enforcement of a Permitted Lien so long as the Lien attaches to the proceeds of such enforcement action; or

(8) as to any funds or other property held in the Securities Account described in the definition of “Included Property” in the Security Agreement, when such funds or other property is withdrawn from such Securities Account; provided that no such withdrawal may take place until such funds or other property has been in such Securities Account for at least three (3) days.

Any release of Note Lien Collateral made in accordance with the provisions of this Section 13.08 or any Note Lien Security Document will be deemed not to impair the Liens in the Note Lien Collateral not so released under the Note Lien Documents in contravention of the provisions hereof.

Section 13.09 Sufficiency of Release. All purchasers and grantees of any Note Lien Collateral purporting to be released will be entitled to rely upon any release executed by the Note Lien Collateral Agent or the Trustee as sufficient for the purpose of this Indenture and the Note Lien Security Documents and as constituting a good and valid release of the Note Lien Collateral therein described from the Lien of this Indenture and the Note Lien Security Documents.

ARTICLE XIV

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

Section 14.01 Satisfaction and Discharge. This Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect (except as to surviving rights or registration of transfer or exchange of the Notes, as expressly provided for in this Indenture) as to all outstanding Notes, when:

(i) all the Notes theretofore authenticated and delivered (except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

(ii) all Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable and the Company has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee funds in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal of, premium, if any, interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes to the date of deposit together with irrevocable instructions from the Company directing the Trustee to apply such funds to the payment thereof at maturity or redemption, as the case may be;

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with Section 14.01 hereof 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 Company’s and the Note Guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 14.01 hereof; provided that if the Company has made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or

Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

2. METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Company will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the March 15 or September 15 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.14 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. The Notes will be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose within or without the City and State of New York, or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders, and provided that if such Note is a Global Note, payment shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by the Depositary or its nominee.

The Company reserves the right to pay interest to Holders of Notes by check mailed to such Holders at their registered addresses or by wire transfer to Holders of at least $5 million aggregate principal amount of Notes.

3. PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR. Initially, Wilmington Trust Company, the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Company and the Trustee may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. If, this Note is exchanged in an Exchange Offer prior to the Record Date for the first Interest Payment Date following such exchange, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on this Note, up to but not including the date of issuance of the Note(s) issued in exchange (the “Exchange Note”) for this Note, shall be paid on the first Interest Payment Date for such Exchange Note(s) to the Holder or Holders of such Exchange Note(s) on the first Record Date with respect to such Exchange Note(s). If this Note is exchanged in an Exchange Offer subsequent to the Record Date for the first Interest Payment Date following such exchange but on or prior to the Interest Payment Date, then any such accrued and unpaid interest with respect to this Note and any accrued and unpaid interest on the Exchange Note(s) issued in exchange for this Note, through the day before such Interest Payment Date, shall be paid on such Interest Payment Date to the Holder of this Note on the Record Date.

The Holder of this Note is entitled to the benefits of the Registration Rights Agreement dated March 31, 2008 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) among the Company, the Note Guarantors and the Purchasers, including provisions relating to payment of Additional Interest.

Without the consent of any Holder of a Note, the Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees may be amended or supplemented to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes, to provide for the assumption of the Company’s or any Note Guarantor’s obligations to Holders of the Notes in case of a merger or consolidation, to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of the Notes or that does not adversely affect in any material respects the rights under the Indenture of any such Holder, to release a Note Guarantor from its obligations under its Note Guarantee, the Notes or the Indenture in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Indenture or to add Note Guarantees with respect to the Notes, to provide additional Note Lien Collateral as security for the Notes or to release Note Liens in favor of the Note Lien Collateral Agent in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Indenture, to issue Additional Notes as permitted in the Indenture, to comply with the requirements of the Commission in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act or to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment under the Indenture of a successor Trustee.

12. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. Events of Default are set forth in the Indenture. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in writing in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by written notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest on, or the principal of, the Notes. The Company and the Note Guarantors are required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the Company and the Guarantors are required upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of Default.

13. NOTE GUARANTORS. After the Issue Date, the Company shall cause each additional Note Guarantor to execute and deliver to the Trustee a Note Guarantee pursuant to which such Note Guarantor shall unconditionally Guarantee, on a joint and several basis, the full and prompt payment of the principal of, premium, if any and interest on the Notes on a senior subordinated basis, as set forth in the Indenture.

14. TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH COMPANY. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Company or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee.

15. NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. A director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder, of the Company, as such, shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes or the 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 the issuance of the Notes.

NOTATION OF GUARANTEE

For value received, each Note Guarantor (which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture) has fully, unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, jointly and severally with each other Note Guarantor, to each Holder of the Notes, the Trustee and the Note Lien Collateral Agent the full and punctual payment when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes and all other monetary obligations of the Company under the Indenture (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the “Company Obligations”). Each Note Guarantor has further agreed (to the extent permitted by law) that the Company Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from it, and that it shall remain bound under Article XI of the Indenture notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Company Obligation. Each Note Guarantor further agrees that its Note Guarantee herein constitutes a Guarantee of payment when due (and not a Guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder to any security held for payment of the Company Obligations. The obligations of the Note Guarantors to the Holders of Notes, Trustee and the Note Lien Collateral Agent pursuant to the Indenture are set forth primarily in Article XI of the Indenture, and are subject to all other applicable provisions of the Indenture, including without limitation the Subordination of Note Guarantee described in Section 12.10 of the Indenture. Each Holder of a Note, by accepting the same agrees to and shall be bound by such provisions.
