Any endorsement of a Global Security to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Securities represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee or the Securities Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.6 hereof.

(3)                                  All Global Securities and Definitive Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Securities or Definitive Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global Securities or Definitive Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

(4)                                  None of the Company, the Trustee or the Registrar shall be required (A) to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange any Securities during a period of 15 days before the day of any selection of Securities for redemption under Section 3.2 hereof and ending at the close of business on the day of selection, (B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Securities so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part or (C) to register the transfer of or to exchange a Security between a record date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date.

The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when so deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as provided in this Section 2.11.

Section 2.12                                CUSIP Numbers

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

(d)                                 If Holders of not less than 95% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities validly tender and do not withdraw such Securities in a Change of Control Offer and the Company, or any third party making a Change of Control Offer in lieu of the Company as permitted by Section 4.12, purchases all of the Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Company or such third party will have the right, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following such purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, to redeem all Securities that remain outstanding following such purchase at a Redemption Price in cash equal to the applicable Change of Control Payment plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Payment, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date.

(e)                                  Any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.7 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.1 through 3.6 hereof.

(b)                                 The Company will pay, to the extent lawful, interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, at the rate then in effect on the Securities; it will pay, to the extent lawful, interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods), from time to time on demand at the same rate as on overdue principal.

(c)                                  All references in this Indenture, the Securities or the Subsidiary Guarantees to “interest” shall be deemed to include Additional Interest unless the context otherwise requires. The Company shall give the Trustee advance written notice of the amount of any Additional Interest that may be payable with respect to the Securities.

Section 4.2                                      Reports

(a)                                  Whether or not required by the Commission’s rules and regulations, so long as any Securities are outstanding, the Company will furnish to the Trustee and each Holder of Securities, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and regulations:

(1)                                  all quarterly and annual reports that would be required to be filed with the Commission on Forms 10-Q and 10-K if the Company were required to file such reports; and

(2)                                  all current reports that would be required to be filed with the Commission on Form 8-K if the Company were required to file such reports.

The Company will be deemed to have furnished such reports to the Trustee and the Holders of Securities if it has filed such reports with the Commission using the ▇▇▇▇▇ filing system and such reports are publicly available. All such reports will be prepared in all material respects in accordance with all of the rules and regulations applicable to such reports. Each annual report on Form 10-K will include a report on the Company’s consolidated financial statements by the Company’s certified independent accountants. In addition, the Company will file a copy of each of the reports referred to in clauses (1) and (2) above with the Commission for public availability within the time periods specified in the rules and regulations applicable to such reports (unless the Commission will not accept such a filing) and make such information available to securities analysts and prospective investors upon request.

(b)                                 If at any time the Company is no longer subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for any reason, the Company will nevertheless continue filing the reports specified in clauses (1) and (2) of the preceding paragraph of this Section 4.2, with the Commission within the time periods specified above unless the Commission will not accept such a filing. The Company agrees that it will not take any action for the purpose of causing the Commission not to accept any such filings. If, notwithstanding the preceding, the Commission will not accept the Company’s filings for any reason, the Company will post the reports referred

53

to in the preceding paragraph of this Section 4.2 on its website within the time periods that would apply if the Company were required to file those reports with the Commission.

(c)                                  In addition, the Company and the Guarantors agree that, for so long as any Securities remain outstanding, if at any time the Company is not required to file with the SEC the reports required by the preceding paragraphs of this Section 4.2, they will furnish to Holders of Securities and to prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act.

(d)                                 The Company and the Guarantors shall also comply with Section 314(a) of the TIA.

Section 4.3                                      Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock

(a)                                  The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), other than Permitted Debt, and the Company shall not issue, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to issue, any Disqualified Stock; provided, however, that the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue shares of Disqualified Stock if the Company’s Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Company’s most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Stock is issued would have been at least 2 to 1, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if such additional Indebtedness had been incurred, or such Disqualified Stock had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such four-quarter period.

(b)                                 The provisions of paragraph (a) of this Section 4.3 shall not apply to the incurrence of any of the following items of Indebtedness (collectively, “Permitted Debt”):

(1)                                  the incurrence by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness pursuant to one or more Credit Facilities; provided, however, that, immediately after giving effect to any such incurrence, the aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) of all Indebtedness incurred under this clause (1) and then outstanding does not exceed the greater of (A) $400 million or (B) 20% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets at the time of incurrence;

(2)                                  the incurrence by the Company and the Guarantors of Indebtedness represented by (A) the Initial Securities and the Subsidiary Guarantees issued on the Issue Date and (B) any Exchange Securities and Subsidiary Guarantees issued thereafter pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement;

(3)                                  the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Existing Indebtedness;

54

(4)                                  the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness, the net proceeds of which are applied to refinance any Indebtedness incurred in respect of any Indebtedness described under clauses (2), (3), (4), (8) or (11) of this paragraph or incurred pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section 4.3;

(5)                                  the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of intercompany Indebtedness between or among the Company and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that (A) if the Company or any Guarantor is the obligor and a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company that is not a Guarantor is the obligee on such Indebtedness, such Indebtedness will be subordinated to the payment in full of all Obligations with respect to the Securities and the Subsidiary Guarantees, as the case may be, and (B) (i) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such Indebtedness being held by a Person other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company and (ii) any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person that is not either the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company shall be deemed, in each case, to constitute an incurrence of such Indebtedness by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, that is not then permitted by this clause (5);

(6)                                  the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness represented by Capital Lease Obligations, mortgage financings or purchase money obligations (including any Acquired Debt), in each case, incurred in connection with the purchase of, or for the purpose of financing the purchase of, the cost of construction, improvement or development of, property, plant or equipment used in the Permitted Business of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company or incurred to extend, refinance, renew, replace, defease or refund any such purchase price or cost of construction, improvement or development, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $50 million at any time outstanding;

(7)                                  the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness consisting of Hedging Obligations entered into in the ordinary course of business and not for speculative purposes;

(8)                                  the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness arising from agreements of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries providing for indemnification, adjustment of purchase price or similar obligations, in each case, incurred in connection with the disposition or acquisition of any business, assets or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company or any business or assets of its Restricted Subsidiaries, other than guarantees of Indebtedness incurred by any Person acquiring all or any portion of such business, assets or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries for the purposes of financing such acquisition; provided, however, that (A) such Indebtedness is not reflected on the balance sheet of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (contingent obligations referred to in a footnote to financial statements and not otherwise reflected on the balance sheet will not be deemed to be reflected on such balance sheet for purposes of this clause (A)) and (B) the maximum liability in respect of all such Indebtedness incurred in connection with a disposition shall at no time exceed the gross proceeds including noncash proceeds (the Fair Market Value of such noncash proceeds being measured at the time received and without

55

giving effect to any subsequent changes in value) actually received by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with such disposition;

(9)                                  the guarantee by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company that was permitted to be incurred by any other provision of this Section 4.3; provided that the guarantee of any Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company that ceases to be such a Restricted Subsidiary shall be deemed a Restricted Investment at the time such Restricted Subsidiary’s status terminates in an amount equal to the maximum principal amount so guaranteed, for so long as, and to the extent that, such guarantee remains outstanding;

(10)                            the issuance by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company of Disqualified Stock to the Company or to any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that any subsequent event or issuance or transfer of any Equity Interests that results in the owner of such Disqualified Stock ceasing to be the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any subsequent transfer of such preferred stock to a Person, other than the Company or one of its Restricted Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to be an issuance of Disqualified Stock by such Subsidiary that was not permitted by this clause (10);

(11)                            the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Permitted Acquisition Indebtedness;

(12)                            the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness incurred in the ordinary course of business under (A) documentary letters of credit, or surety bonds or insurance contracts, which are to be repaid in full not more than one year after the date on which such Indebtedness is originally incurred to finance the purchase of goods by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, (B) standby letters of credit, surety bonds or insurance contracts issued for the purpose of supporting (i) workers’ compensation or similar liabilities of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or (ii) performance, payment, deposit or surety obligations of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and (C) bid, advance payment and performance bonds and surety bonds or similar insurance contracts for the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, and refinancings thereof; and

(13)                            the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness (in addition to Indebtedness permitted by any other provision of this covenant) in an aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) not to exceed the greater of (A) $25 million at any one time outstanding or (B) 2.5% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets as of any date of incurrence after giving pro forma effect to such incurrence and the application of proceeds therefrom.

(c)                                  To the extent the Company’s Unrestricted Subsidiaries incur Non-Recourse Indebtedness and any such Indebtedness ceases to be Non-Recourse Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary, then such event shall be deemed to constitute an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company that was subject to this covenant.

56

(d)                                 Neither the Company nor any Guarantor will incur any Indebtedness (including Permitted Debt) that is contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be, unless such Indebtedness is also contractually subordinated in right of payment to the Securities or the Subsidiary Guarantees, as the case may be, on substantially identical terms; provided, however, that no Indebtedness of any Person will be deemed to be contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of such Person solely by virtue of being unsecured.

(e)                                  For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.3, in the event that an item of proposed Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt set forth in Section 4.3(b) or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.3(a), the Company will, in its sole discretion, classify (or later classify or reclassify) in whole or in part such item of Indebtedness in any manner that complies with this Section 4.3 and such item of Indebtedness or a portion thereof may be classified (or later classified or reclassified) in whole or in part as having been incurred under more than one of the applicable clauses of Section 4.3(b) or pursuant to Section 4.3(a). Accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value and the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this Section 4.3.

(f)                                    For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit Indebtedness; provided that if such Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar-dominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar-dominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced. Notwithstanding any other provision of this covenant, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Company may incur pursuant to this covenant shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies. The principal amount of any Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

Section 4.4                                      Restricted Payments

(a)                                  The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly:

(1)                                  declare or pay any dividend or make any other payment or distribution on account of the Company’s or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Equity Interests (including, without limitation, any payment in connection with any merger or consolidation involving the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) or to the direct or indirect holders of the

57

(A)                              no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and

(B)                                the Company would, at the time of such Restricted Payment and after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Restricted Payment had been made at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, have been permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in Section 4.3(a); and

(C)                                such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all other Restricted Payments made by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries after the Issue Date (excluding Restricted Payments permitted by clause (2), (3), (4), (5), (6), (8), (9), (10), (11) or (12) of Section 4.4(b)), is less than the sum of:

(i)                                    50% of the Consolidated Net Income of the Company for the period (taken as one accounting period) from July 1, 2007 to the end of the Company’s most recently ended fiscal quarter for which internal financial statements are available at the time of such Restricted Payment (or, if such Consolidated Net Income for such period is a loss, less 100% of such loss), plus

(ii)                                 100% of the aggregate net cash proceeds (other than Designated Proceeds), or the Fair Market Value of assets or property other than cash, received by the Company from the issue or sale, in either case, since July 1, 2007 of (I) Equity Interests of the Company (other than Disqualified Stock), or (II) Disqualified Stock or debt securities of the Company that have been converted into, or exchanged for, such Equity Interests, together with the aggregate cash received at the time of such conversion or exchange, other than

58

Equity Interests (or Disqualified Stock or convertible or exchangeable debt securities) sold to a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company and other than Disqualified Stock or debt securities that have been converted into or exchanged for Disqualified Stock, plus

(iii)                              in case any Unrestricted Subsidiary has been redesignated a Restricted Subsidiary pursuant to the terms of Section 4.9(a) or has been merged or consolidated with or into, or transfers or otherwise disposes of all of substantially all of its properties or assets to or is liquidated into, the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, the lesser of, at the date of such redesignation, merger, consolidation, transfer, disposition or liquidation (I) the book value (determined in accordance with GAAP) of the aggregate Investments made by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in such Unrestricted Subsidiary (or of the properties or assets disposed of, as applicable) and (II) the Fair Market Value of such Investment in such Unrestricted Subsidiary, in each case after deducting any Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary, plus

(b)                                 The provisions of Section 4.4(a) shall not prohibit:

(1)                                  the payment of any dividend or the consummation of an irrevocable redemption of Subordinated Obligations within 60 days after the date of the declaration of such dividend or the delivery of the irrevocable notice of redemption, as the case may be, if at the date of the declaration or the date on which such irrevocable notice is delivered, such dividend or redemption would have complied with the provisions of this Indenture;

(2)                                  the making of any Restricted Payments described in clause (2) or (3) of Section 4.4(a) out of the net cash proceeds (other than Designated Proceeds) of the substantially concurrent sale or issuance (a sale or issuance will be deemed substantially concurrent if such Restricted Payment occurs not more than 45 days after such sale or issuance) (other than to a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company) of Equity Interests of the Company (other than any Disqualified Stock), provided that the amount of any such net cash proceeds that are utilized for any such Restricted Payment shall be excluded from clause (C)(ii) of Section 4.4(a)(4);

59

(3)                                  the making of any principal payment on, or the defeasance, redemption, repurchase or other acquisition of, prior to its Stated Maturity, any Subordinated Obligation with the net cash proceeds from an incurrence of, or in exchange for the issuance of, Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness;

The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) shall be the Fair Market Value on the date of the transfer, incurrence or issuance of such non-cash Restricted Payment.

Section 4.5                                      Liens

(a)                                  The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) upon any of its property or assets (including Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary), whether owned on the Issue Date or acquired after that date, securing any Indebtedness, unless:

(1)                                  in the case of Liens securing Subordinated Obligations of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, the Securities or Subsidiary Guarantees, as applicable, are contemporaneously secured by a Lien on such property or assets on a senior basis to the Subordinated Obligations so secured with the same priority that the Securities or Subsidiary Guarantees, as applicable, have to such Subordinated Obligations until such time as such Subordinated Obligations are no longer so secured by a Lien; and

61

(2)                                  in the case of Liens securing Senior Indebtedness of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, the Securities or Subsidiary Guarantees, as applicable, are contemporaneously secured by a Lien on such property or assets on an equal and ratable basis with the Senior Indebtedness so secured until such time as such Senior Indebtedness is no longer so secured by a Lien.

(b)                                 Upon the occurrence of an Investment Grade Rating Event but not before then, the covenant set forth in Section 4.5(c) shall become effective and shall apply to the Company and its Subsidiaries.

Section 4.6                                      Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Subsidiaries

(a)                                  The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company to:

(1)                                  (x) pay dividends or make any other distributions to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries on its Capital Stock or (y) pay any Indebtedness owed to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, that the priority of any preferred stock in receiving dividends or liquidating distributions prior to the payment of dividends or liquidating distributions on common stock shall not be deemed to be a restriction on the ability to make distributions on Capital Stock;

(2)                                  make loans or advances to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; or

(3)                                  transfer any of its properties or assets to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries.

(b)                                 However, the restrictions in Section 4.6(a) will not apply to encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of:

(1)                                  any Credit Facility in effect after the Issue Date to the extent its provisions, taken as a whole, are no more restrictive with respect to such dividend, distribution or

Section 4.7                                      Asset Sales

(a)                                  The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless:

(1)                                  The Company or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at the time of the Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value (which shall give effect to the assumption by another Person of any liabilities as provided for in clause (2)(A) of this paragraph and which, in the case of an Asset Sale involving consideration not exceeding $100 million, need not be determined by the Board of Directors) of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of; and

(2)                                  (x) at least 75% of the consideration received in such Asset Sale is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents or (y) the Fair Market Value of all forms of consideration other than cash or Cash Equivalents received for all Asset Sales since the Issue Date does not exceed in the aggregate 10% of Consolidated Net Worth of the Company at the time each determination is made; provided that any of the following items shall be deemed to be cash and Cash Equivalents for the purposes of this clause (2):

(A)                              the assumption of any liabilities (as shown on the Company’s or the Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet) of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company (other than liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to Securities issued under this Indenture or any Subsidiary Guarantee) by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to a customary novation agreement that releases the Company or the Restricted Subsidiary from further liability;

(B)                                any securities, notes or other obligations received by the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by the Company or the Restricted Subsidiary into cash or Cash Equivalents within 180 days following their receipt (to the extent of cash or Cash Equivalents received);

(C)                                other assets or rights used or useful in a Permitted Business, including, without limitation, assets or Investments of the nature or type described in clause (13) of the definition of “Permitted Investments” in Section 1.1; and

64

(D)                               accounts receivable of a business retained by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries following the sale of such business; provided, that such accounts receivable are not (i) past due more than 60 days and (ii) do not have a payment date greater than 90 days from the date of the invoice creating such accounts receivable;

provided, that any Asset Sale pursuant to a condemnation, appropriation or other similar taking, including by deed in lieu of condemnation, or pursuant to the foreclosure or other enforcement of a Lien incurred not in violation of Section 4.5 or exercise by the related lienholder of rights with respect thereto, including by deed or assignment in lieu of foreclosure, shall not be required to satisfy the conditions set forth in clauses (1) and (2) of this paragraph.

(b)                                 Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, the Company or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, may apply such Net Proceeds, at its option:

(1)                                  to prepay, repay, purchase, repurchase or redeem any Senior Indebtedness of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company;

(2)                                  to acquire a controlling interest in another business or all or substantially all of the assets or operating line of another business, in each case engaged in a Permitted Business;

(3)                                  to make capital expenditures; or

(4)                                  to acquire other non-current assets to be used in a Permitted Business, including, without limitation, assets or Investments of the nature or type described in clause (13) of the definition of “Permitted Investments” in Section 1.1;

provided that the Company or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary will be deemed to have complied with clause (2) or (3) of this sentence if, within 365 days of such Asset Sale, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary shall have commenced and not completed or abandoned an expenditure or Investment, or entered into a binding agreement with respect to an expenditure or Investment, in compliance with clause (2) or (3), and that expenditure or Investment is substantially completed within a date one year and six months after the date of such Asset Sale. Pending the final application of any such Net Proceeds, the Company may temporarily reduce Indebtedness under any Credit Facility or otherwise expend or invest such Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Indenture. Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales described in this paragraph that are not applied or invested as provided in the first sentence of this paragraph shall be deemed to constitute “Excess Asset Sale Proceeds.”

(c)                                  When the aggregate amount of Excess Asset Sale Proceeds exceeds $15 million, the Company shall make an offer to the Holders of Securities and the holders of any other Senior Indebtedness that is subject to requirements with respect to the application of net proceeds from asset sales that are substantially similar to those contained in this Section 4.7 (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to purchase on a pro rata basis (with the Excess Asset Sale Proceeds prorated between the Holders of the Securities and such holders of such other Senior Indebtedness based upon

65

outstanding aggregate principal amounts) the maximum principal amount of the Securities and such other Senior Indebtedness that may be purchased or prepaid, as applicable, out of the prorated Excess Asset Sale Proceeds, at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof (or accreted amount in the case of any Senior Indebtedness issued with original issue discount) plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of purchase (the “Asset Sale Payment”), in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 4.7. To the extent that the aggregate principal amount of Securities and other Senior Indebtedness tendered (and electing to be redeemed or repaid, as applicable) pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Asset Sale Proceeds, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries may use any remaining Excess Asset Sale Proceeds for general corporate purposes and any other purpose not prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of the Securities and such other Senior Indebtedness surrendered by holders thereof exceeds the amount of the prorated Excess Asset Sale Proceeds, the Company shall select the Securities and such other Senior Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Asset Sale Proceeds shall be reset at zero.

(d)                                 When the Company becomes obligated to make an Asset Sale Offer, the Company will mail a notice to each Holder describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Asset Sale and offering to repurchase Securities on the date (the “Asset Sale Payment Date”) specified in such notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed, pursuant to the procedures required by this Indenture and described in such notice.

(e)                                  On the Asset Sale Payment Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful:

(1)                                  accept for payment all Securities or portions thereof properly tendered pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer, subject to proration based on the amount of Excess Asset Sale Proceeds pursuant to clause (c) above of this Section 4.7;

(2)                                  deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the amount of Excess Asset Sale Proceeds that, after giving effect to proration with holders of other Senior Indebtedness pursuant to clause (c) above of this Section 4.7, is allocable to the Securities or portions thereof so tendered (or, if less, the aggregate Asset Sale Payment for all Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn); and

(3)                                  deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Securities so accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Securities or portions thereof being purchased by the Company.

(f)                                    The Paying Agent will promptly mail (or cause to be transferred through the facilities of the Depositary) to each Holder of Securities so tendered and not withdrawn and accepted for payment in accordance with this Section 4.7, the Asset Sale Payment for such tendered Securities, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Security equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Securities surrendered, if any, by such Holder; provided that each

66

such new Security will be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

(g)                                 If the Asset Sale Payment Date is on or after an interest payment record date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest will be paid to the Person in whose name a purchased Security is registered on such record date, and no other interest will be payable to Holders who tender Securities pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer.

(h)                                 The Company will publicly announce the results of the Asset Sale Offer on or as soon as practicable after the date such Asset Sale Offer is completed.

(i)                                     The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-l under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.7, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.7 by virtue of the Company’s compliance with such securities laws or regulations.

Section 4.8                                      Transactions with Affiliates

(a)                                  The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of any such Person (each of the foregoing, an “Affiliate Transaction”) if such Affiliate Transaction involves aggregate consideration in excess of $1 million, unless:

(1)                                  such Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that could have been obtained in a transaction by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person or, if no comparable transaction is available with which to compare such Affiliate Transaction, such Affiliate Transaction is otherwise fair to the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view, evidenced (if required by clause (2) of this Section 4.8(a)) by the Officers’ Certificate provided for in clause (2) of this Section 4.8(a); and

(2)                                  the Company delivers to the Trustee:

(A)                              with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of at least $20 million but equal to or less than $40 million, an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (1) above; and

(B)                                with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $40 million, a resolution of its Board of Directors set forth in an Officers’ Certificate certifying that

67

such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (1) of this Section 4.8(a) and that such Affiliate Transaction has been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of its Board of Directors;

(b)                                 None of the following shall be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and therefore shall not be subject to the provisions of Section 4.8(a):

(1)                                  any employment, equity award, equity option or equity appreciation agreement or plan, agreement or other similar compensation plan or arrangement entered into by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of its business;

(2)                                  transactions between or among (A) the Company and one or more Restricted Subsidiaries and (B) any Restricted Subsidiaries;

(3)                                  the performance of any written agreement in effect on the Issue Date, as such agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time; provided, however, that any amendment, modification or supplement entered into after the Issue Date will be permitted only to the extent that its terms do not adversely affect the rights of any Holders of the Securities (as determined in good faith by an Officer of the Company, and, if such amendment, modification or supplement involves aggregate consideration in excess of $40 million, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors) as compared to the terms of the agreement in effect on the Issue Date;

(4)                                  loans or advances to officers, directors and employees for moving, entertainment and travel expenses, drawing accounts and similar expenditures and other purposes, in each case, in the ordinary course of business;

(5)                                  maintenance in the ordinary course of business of customary benefit programs or arrangements for employees, officers or directors, including vacation plans, health and life insurance plans, deferred compensation plans and retirement or savings plans and similar plans;

(6)                                  fees and compensation paid to, and indemnity provided on behalf of, officers, directors, employees or consultants of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in their capacity as such, to the extent such fees and compensation are reasonable and customary;

(7)                                  sales of Equity Interests of the Company (other than Disqualified Stock) to Affiliates of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;

(8)                                  Restricted Payments that are permitted by Section 4.4; and

(9)                                  any transactions between the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary and any Person, a director of which is also a director of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that such director abstains from voting as a director of the Company or the Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, in connection with the approval of the transaction.

68

Section 4.9                                      Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries

(a)                                  The Board of Directors may designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary only if:

(1)                                  immediately after giving effect to such designation, the Company could incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test under Section 4.3(a) or the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of the Company immediately after giving effect to such designation would not be less than the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of the Company immediately prior to such designation;

(2)                                  immediately before and immediately after giving effect to such designation, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and

(b)                                 The Board of Directors may designate any Subsidiary of the Company to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary under the circumstances and pursuant to the requirements described in the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary” set forth in Section 1.1. For purposes of making the determination as to whether such designation would be made in compliance with this Section, all outstanding Investments by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries (except to the extent repaid in cash) in the Subsidiary so designated will be deemed to be Restricted Payments at the time of such designation and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under Section 4.4(a). All such outstanding Investments will be deemed to constitute Investments in an amount equal to the greater of (1) the net book value (determined in accordance with GAAP) of such Investments at the time of such designation and (2) the Fair Market Value of such Investments at the time of such designation.

Section 4.10                                Additional Subsidiary Guarantees

If, after the Issue Date, any Restricted Subsidiary (other than a Foreign Subsidiary) of the Company that is not already a Guarantor (whether or not acquired or created by the Company or another Restricted Subsidiary after the Issue Date) incurs any Indebtedness, or guarantees any other Indebtedness of the Company or a Guarantor, in either case in excess of a De Minimis Amount, then the Company shall cause such Restricted Subsidiary to become a Guarantor by executing a supplemental indenture substantially in the form of Exhibit E hereto and delivering it to the Trustee within 180 days of the date on which it incurred or guaranteed such Indebtedness, as the case may be.

69

Section 4.11                                [Intentionally Omitted.]

Section 4.12                                Change of Control

(a)                                  If a Change of Control occurs, each Holder of Securities will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Securities pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”) at an offer price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Company will mail to each Holder of Securities a notice describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control and offering to repurchase the Securities on the date specified in such notice, which date shall be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), pursuant to the procedures required by this Section 4.12 and described in such notice.

(c)                                  The Paying Agent will promptly mail (or cause to be transferred through the facilities of the Depositary) to each Holder of Securities so tendered and not withdrawn the Change of Control Payment for such tendered Securities, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Security equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Securities surrendered, if any, by such Holder; provided that each such new Security will be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Trustee will notify the Registrar of the issuance of the new Security.

(d)                                 If the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after an interest payment record date and on or before the related interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest will be paid to the Person in whose name a Security is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no other interest will be payable to Holders who tender pursuant to the Change of Control Offer.

(e)                                  The Company will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

(g)                                 The Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and purchases all Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer. A Change of Control Offer may be made with respect to the Securities in advance of a Change of Control, and conditional upon the occurrence of such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement for the Change of Control is in place at the time of making the Change of Control Offer.

(h)                                 The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-l under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Securities as a result of a Change of Control. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.12, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.12 by virtue of the Company’s compliance with such securities laws or regulations.

Section 4.13                                Maintenance of Office or Agency for Registration of Transfer, Exchange and Payment of Securities

So long as any of the Securities shall remain outstanding, the Company will, in accordance with Section 2.3 hereof, maintain an office or agency (which may be an office of the Trustee or an affiliate of the Trustee, or the Registrar) in the continental United States where the Securities may be surrendered for exchange or registration of transfer as provided in this Indenture, where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect to the Securities may be served, and where the Securities may be presented or surrendered for payment. The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies in the continental United States where Securities may be presented or surrendered for any and all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation under Section 2.3 to maintain an office or agency in New York, New York where any Definitive Securities may be presented or surrendered for payment. The Company will give to Trustee prompt written notice of the location of any such office or agency and of any change of location thereof. In case the Company shall fail to maintain any such office or agency or shall fail to give such notice of the location or of any change in the location thereof, such surrenders, presentations and demands may be made and notices may be served at the designated Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee its agent to receive at the aforesaid office all such surrenders, presentations, notices and demands.

(1)                                  that it will hold all sums held by it as such agent for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Securities (whether such sums have been paid to it by the Company or by any other obligor on the Securities) in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities and will notify the Trustee of the receipt of sums to be so held;

ARTICLE VI

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

Section 6.1                                      Events of Default

(a)                                  Each of the following is an “Event of Default”:

(1)                                  default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on the Securities;

(2)                                  default in the payment when due of the principal of, or premium, if any, on the Securities;

(3)                                  failure by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to comply with Section 4.12 or 5.1 hereof for 30 days after receipt of written notice specified in Section 6.1(b) below;

75

(4)                                  failure by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries for 60 days after receipt of written notice specified in Section 6.1(b) below to comply with any of its other agreements contained in this Indenture or the Securities (other than a failure that is subject to clause (1), (2) or (3) of this Section 6.1(a));

(5)                                  default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), whether such Indebtedness or guarantee now exists, or is created after the Issue Date, if that default:

(A)                             is caused by a failure to pay principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on such Indebtedness prior to the expiration of the grace period provided in such Indebtedness (a “Payment Default”); or

(B)                               results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity;

and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates without duplication $30 million or more;

(6)                                  failure by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to pay final judgments aggregating in excess of $30 million (excluding amounts covered by insurance), which judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed for a period of 60 days;

(7)                                  except as permitted by this Indenture, any Subsidiary Guarantee of a Guarantor shall be held in any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or shall cease for any reason to be in full force and effect or any Guarantor, or any Person acting on behalf of any Guarantor, shall deny or disaffirm its obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee; and

(8)                                  (A)                              the Company or a Significant Subsidiary or a group of Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:

(i)                                     commences a voluntary case or proceeding;

(ii)                                  consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case or proceeding in which it is a debtor;

(iii)                               consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for any substantial part of its property;

(iv)                              makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or

76

(v)                                 consents to the institution of a bankruptcy or an insolvency proceeding against it;

or takes any comparable action under any foreign laws relating to insolvency; or

(B)                               a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:

(i)                                          is for relief against the Company or any Significant Subsidiary or a group of Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case in which it is a debtor;

(ii)                                       appoints a Custodian of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary or a group of Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary or for any substantial part of its property; or

(iii)                                    orders the winding up or liquidation of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary or a group of Subsidiaries that, taken together would constitute a Significant Subsidiary;

or any similar relief is granted under any foreign laws and the order, decree or relief remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days.

(b)                                 However, a Default under clauses (3) and (4) of Section 6.1(a) will not constitute an Event of Default until the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities notify the Company of the Default and the Company does not cure such Default within the time specified in clauses (3) and (4) of Section 6.1(a) after receipt of such notice. Such notice must specify the Default, demand that it be remedied and state that such notice is a “Notice of Default.”

(c)                                  Whether or not a group of Subsidiaries would constitute, when taken together, a Significant Subsidiary will be determined, for purposes of Section 6.1(a), on the basis of the latest available consolidated financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

Section 6.2                                      Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment

(a)                                  If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in clause (8) of Section 6.1(a)) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee by notice to the Company, or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities by notice to the Company and the Trustee, may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Securities to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal, premium and accrued and unpaid interest will be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default described in clause (8) of Section 6.1(a) occurs and is continuing, the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on all the Securities will become and be immediately due and payable without any further action or notice on the part of the Trustee or any Holders. The Holders of a majority in outstanding principal amount of the Securities by notice to the Trustee

77

may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities rescind any such acceleration with respect to the Securities and its consequences if (1) rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (2) all existing Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived.

(b)                                 In the case of an Event of Default specified in clause (5) of Section 6.1(a), such Event of Default and all consequences thereof (excluding, however, any resulting payment default) will be annulled, waived and rescinded with respect to the Securities, automatically and without any action by the Trustee or the Holders of the Securities, if within 60 days after such Event of Default first arose the Company delivers an Officers’ Certificate to the Trustee stating that (1) the Indebtedness or guarantee that is the basis for such Event of Default has been paid or discharged, (2) the holders of the Indebtedness have rescinded or waived the acceleration giving rise to such Event of Default or (3) the default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been otherwise cured; provided, however, that in no event shall an acceleration of the principal amount of the Securities pursuant to Section 6.2(a) be annulled, waived or rescinded upon the happening of any such events.

Section 6.3                                      Other Remedies

(a)                                  If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal of, premium (if any) or interest on the Securities or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Securities or this Indenture.

(b)                                 The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Securities or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder 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. No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. All available remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

Section 6.4                                      Waiver of Past Defaults

The Holders of a majority in outstanding principal amount of the Securities, by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities waive an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences hereunder except a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on a Security. When a Default or Event of Default is waived, it is deemed cured, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any consequent right.

Section 6.5                                      Control by Majority

The Holders of a majority in outstanding principal amount of the Securities have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or, subject

78

to Section 7.1 hereof, that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders or would involve the Trustee in personal liability; provided, however, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction. Subject to Section 7.1, prior to taking any action hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification reasonably satisfactory to it against all loss, liability and expense caused by taking or not taking such action.

Section 6.6                                      Limitation on Suits

(a)                                  Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium (if any) or interest when due, a Holder may not pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture, the Securities or the Subsidiary Guarantees unless:

(1)                                  the Holder has previously given the Trustee written notice stating that an Event of Default is continuing;

(2)                                  Holders of at least 25% in outstanding principal amount of the Securities have made a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

(3)                                  such Holder or Holders have furnished the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against any loss, liability or expense;

(4)                                  the Trustee has not complied with the Holders’ request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the furnishing of security or indemnity; and

(5)                                  the Holders of a majority in outstanding principal amount of the Securities have not given the Trustee a direction that, in the opinion of the Trustee, is inconsistent with the request during such 60-day period.

(b)                                 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 6.7                                      Rights of Holders to Receive Payment

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities held by such Holder, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Securities, 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 6.8                                      Collection Suit by Trustee

If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(a)(1) or Section 6.1(a)(2) hereof occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company or any Guarantor for the whole amount then due and owing (together with interest on any unpaid interest to the extent lawful) and the amounts provided for in Section 7.7

79

hereof to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, disbursement and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

Section 6.9                                      Trustee May File Proofs of Claim

The Trustee may 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 and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company or any Guarantor or their respective creditors or properties and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may vote on behalf of the Holders in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing similar functions, and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.7 hereof.

Section 6.10                                Priorities

(a)                                  If the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article VI, it shall pay out the money or property in the following order:

First: costs and expenses of collection, including all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the compensation, expenses and disbursements of the Trustee, its agents, and counsel and all other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.7 hereof;

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

Third: to the Company.

(b)                                 The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section 6.10. At least 15 days before such record date, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder and the Company a notice that states the record date, the payment date and amount to be paid.

Section 6.11                                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 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 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee,

80

a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.7 hereof or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in outstanding principal amount of the Securities.

ARTICLE VII

TRUSTEE

Section 7.1                                      Duties of Trustee

(a)                                  If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.

(b)                                 Except during the continuance of an Event of Default: (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) in the absence of bad faith on its part, 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. However, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

(c)                                  The Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that:

(1)                                  this paragraph does not limit the effect of Section 7.1(b) hereof;

(2)                                  the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

(3)                                  the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.5 hereof.

(f)                                    Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

(g)                                 No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds to believe that

81

repayment of such funds or security or indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

Section 7.2                                      Rights of Trustee.

(a)                                  The Trustee may rely on any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document.

(b)                                 Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on the Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel.

(c)                                  The Trustee may act through its attorneys and agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent appointed with due care.

(d)                                 The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture; provided, however, that the Trustee’s conduct does not constitute willful misconduct or negligence.

(e)                                  The Trustee may consult with counsel, and the advice or opinion of counsel with respect to legal matters relating to this Indenture and the Securities shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect to any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.

(f)                                    Except for (i) a default under Section 6.1(a)(1) or Section 6.1(a)(2) hereof, or (ii) any other event of which a Trust Officer has actual knowledge and which event, with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default under this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any default or event unless specifically notified in writing of such event by the Company or any Holder of the Securities.
