NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements and covenants set forth herein, the parties hereto agree, subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, as follows for the benefit of the Trustee and the Noteholders:

ARTICLE 1

GUARANTEES

Section 1.01                                Guarantee.  Each New Subsidiary Guarantor agrees to be bound by the terms of the First Supplemental Indenture and this Supplemental Indenture as a Subsidiary Guarantor; provided, however, that each New Subsidiary Guarantor shall cease to constitute a Subsidiary Guarantor when its Subsidiary Guarantee is released in accordance with the terms of the First Supplemental Indenture.

Each New Subsidiary Guarantor hereby jointly and severally with each of the other Subsidiary Guarantors guarantees, as a primary obligor and not as a surety, to the Trustee and each Holder and their respective successors and assigns, the prompt payment in full when due (whether at Stated Maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, demand, by acceleration or otherwise) of the principal of and interest (including Additional  Interest, if any, and any interest, fees, costs or charges that would accrue but for the provisions of Title 11 of the United States Code after any bankruptcy or insolvency petition under Title 11 of the United States Code) on the Notes, and all other obligations from time to time owing to the Trustee and the Holders by the Company under the Indenture and the Notes, in each case strictly in accordance with the terms thereof (such obligations being herein collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”).  Each New Subsidiary Guarantor jointly and severally with each of the other Subsidiary Guarantors agrees that if the Company shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guaranteed Obligations, such New Subsidiary Guarantor will promptly pay the same in cash, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.

Section 1.02                                Obligations Unconditional.  The obligations of each New Subsidiary Guarantor under Section 1.01 shall constitute a guaranty of payment and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, are absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, joint and several with each of the other Subsidiary Guarantors, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor (except for payment in full).  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of any New Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder, which shall remain absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances as described above:

(i)                                      at any time or from time to time, without notice to any New Subsidiary Guarantor, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived;

(ii)                                   any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Subsidiary Guarantee or the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be done or omitted;

2

(iii)                                the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be amended in any respect, or any right under the Indenture or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be amended or waived in any respect or any other guarantee of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with; or

(iv)                               the release of any other Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to the First Supplemental Indenture.

Each New Subsidiary Guarantor hereby expressly waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that the Trustee or any Holder exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against the Company or any other Subsidiary Guarantor under the Indenture or the Notes or a Subsidiary Guarantee, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations.  Each New Subsidiary Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension, waiver, termination or accrual or any of the Guaranteed Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Trustee or any Holder upon this Subsidiary Guarantee or acceptance of this Subsidiary Guarantee, and the Guaranteed Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon this Subsidiary Guarantee, and all dealings between the Company and the Trustee or any Holder shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Subsidiary Guarantee.  This Subsidiary Guarantee shall be construed as a continuing, absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to any right of offset with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations at any time or from time to time held by the Trustee or any Holder, and the obligations and liabilities of each New Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by the Trustee or any Holder or any other Person at any time of any right or remedy against the Company, any other Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person which may be or become liable in respect of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or against any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto.  This Subsidiary Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon each New Subsidiary Guarantor and the successors and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders, and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 1.03                                Reinstatement.  The obligations of each New Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the Company in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise.

Section 1.04                                Subrogation; Subordination.  Each New Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that until the indefeasible payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations, it shall waive any claim and shall not exercise any right or remedy, direct or indirect, arising by reason of any performance by it of its guarantee in Section 1.01, whether by subrogation or otherwise, against the Company or any other Subsidiary Guarantor or any security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations.

Section 1.05                                Remedies.  Each New Subsidiary Guarantor jointly and severally with each of the other Subsidiary Guarantors agrees that, as between such New Subsidiary Guarantor and the Trustee or any Holder, the obligations of the Company under the Indenture and the Notes may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in the First Supplemental Indenture (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in the First Supplemental Indenture) for purposes of Section 1.01, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such

3

declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against the Company and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by the Company) shall forthwith become due and payable by such New Subsidiary Guarantor for purposes of Section 1.01.

Section 1.06                                Instrument for the Payment of Money.  Each New Subsidiary Guarantor hereby acknowledges that the guarantee in this Subsidiary Guarantee constitutes an instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that the Trustee or (if permitted by the First Supplemental Indenture) any Holder shall have the right to bring a motion-action under New York CPLR Section 3213.

Section 1.07                                Continuing Guarantee.  The guarantee in this Subsidiary Guarantee is a continuing guarantee of payment, and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising.

Section 1.08                                General Limitation on Guarantee Obligations.  In any action or proceeding involving any state corporate, limited partnership or limited liability company law, or any applicable state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor under Section 1.01 would otherwise be held or determined to be void, voidable, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 1.01, then, notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by any Subsidiary Guarantor, the Trustee or any Holder or any other person, be automatically limited and reduced to the maximum amount which, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee or pursuant to its contribution obligations under Section 1.09, will result in the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under federal or state law.

Section 1.09                                Right of Contribution.  Each New Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that any Subsidiary Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made under a Subsidiary Guarantee (based on the respective net assets of all Subsidiary Guarantors at the time of such payment determined in accordance with GAAP), such New Subsidiary Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Subsidiary Guarantor which has not paid its proportionate share of such payment.  Each New Subsidiary Guarantor’s right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 1.04.  The provisions of this Section 1.09 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Subsidiary Guarantor to the Trustee or any Holder and each New Subsidiary Guarantor shall remain liable to the Trustee or any Holder for the full amount guaranteed by such New Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder.

Section 1.10                                Releases; Merger.  Each New  Subsidiary Guarantor shall be released from its obligations under Section 1.01 hereof as specified in Section 11.02 of the First Supplemental Indenture in respect of the Notes.  Each New Subsidiary Guarantor may consolidate with or merge into or sell its assets to any Person as specified in the second paragraph of Section 11.01 of the First Supplemental Indenture.
