(b) Upon the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, the Company and the Guarantors shall promptly commence the Registered Exchange Offer, it being

(ii) keep the Registered Exchange Offer open for not less than 20 Business Days after the date notice thereof is mailed to the Holders (or longer if required by applicable law);

(vii) comply in all material respects with all applicable laws.

(d) As soon as practicable after the close of the Registered Exchange Offer, the Company and the Guarantors shall:

(i) accept for exchange all Securities properly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer on or prior to its expiration;

(ii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee for cancellation in accordance with Section 4(r) all Securities so accepted for exchange; and

(iii) cause the Trustee promptly to authenticate and deliver to each Holder of Securities a principal amount of Exchange Notes equal to the principal amount of the Securities of such Holder so accepted for exchange.

Accordingly, each Holder participating in the Registered Exchange Offer shall be required to represent to the Company and the Guarantors that, at the time of the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer:

(i) any Exchange Notes received by such Holder will be acquired in the ordinary course of business;

(ii) such Holder will have no arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of the Securities or the Exchange Notes within the meaning of the Act; and

Day, by the next succeeding Business Day) or the Registered Exchange Offer is not consummated within 30 Business Days after the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is declared effective; (iii) any Initial Purchaser so requests with respect to Securities that are not eligible to be exchanged for Exchange Notes in the Registered Exchange Offer and that are held by it following consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer; or (iv) any Holder notifies the Company that (A) it is prohibited by law or Commission policy from participating in the Registered Exchange Offer; (B) it may not resell the Exchange Notes acquired by it in the Registered Exchange Offer to the public without delivering a prospectus and the prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is not appropriate or available for such resales; or (C) it is a Broker-Dealer and owns Securities acquired directly from the Company or an Affiliate of the Company, then the Company and the Guarantors shall effect a Shelf Registration Statement in accordance with subsection (b) below.

(b) (i) The Company and the Guarantors shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to file with the Commission within 30 days after such filing obligation arises (or, if later, 150 days after the Closing Date) and shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to cause to be declared effective under the Act within 75 days of such filing (or, if later, 270 days after the Closing Date), pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 3, a Shelf Registration Statement relating to the offer and sale of the Securities or the Exchange Notes, as applicable, by the Holders thereof from time to time in accordance with the methods of distribution elected by such Holders and set forth in such Shelf Registration Statement; provided, however, that no Holder shall be entitled to have the Securities held by it covered by such Shelf Registration Statement or be entitled to use a Prospectus forming a part thereof unless such Holder agrees in writing to be bound by all of the provisions of this Agreement applicable to such Holder and has returned to the Company a completed and signed selling security holder questionnaire in reasonable and customary form by the reasonable deadline for responses set forth therein; and provided further, that with respect to Exchange Notes received by an Initial Purchaser in exchange for Securities constituting any portion of an unsold allotment, the Company and the Guarantors may, if permitted by current interpretations by the Commission’s staff, file a post-effective amendment to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement containing the information required by Item 507 or 508 of Regulation S-K, as applicable, in satisfaction of their obligations under this subsection with respect thereto, and any such Exchange Offer Registration Statement, as so amended, shall be referred to herein as, and governed by the provisions herein applicable to, a Shelf Registration Statement.

(ii) The Company and the Guarantors shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective, supplemented and amended as required by the Act, in order to permit the Prospectus forming part thereof to be usable by Holders for a period (the “Shelf Registration Period”) from the date the Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission until the first to occur of (A) the second anniversary thereof or (B) the date upon which all the Securities or Exchange Notes, as applicable, covered by the Shelf Registration Statement have been sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement or cease to be outstanding.

(iii) Subject to the provisions of Section 4 hereof, the Company and the Guarantors shall cause the Shelf Registration Statement and the related Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, as of the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement or

such amendment or supplement, (A) to comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Act; and (B) not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein (in the case of the Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading.

The Company and the Guarantors may exclude from such Registration Statement the Registrable Securities of any Holder that fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time after receiving such request. Each Holder as to which Registrable Securities are being included in a Registration Statement agrees to furnish to the Company all information with respect to such

Holder necessary to make any information previously furnished to the Company by such Holder pursuant to this Section 4(m) or otherwise not materially misleading.

The actions set forth in clauses (iii), (iv), (v) and (vi) of this paragraph (o) shall be performed at each closing under any underwriting or similar customary agreement as and to the extent required thereunder.

(p) In the case of any Exchange Offer Registration Statement, the Company and the Guarantors shall, if requested by an Initial Purchaser, or by a Broker-Dealer that holds Securities that were acquired as a result of market making or other trading activities:

(i) subject to the execution of confidentiality agreements reasonably satisfactory to the Company, upon reasonable prior written notice and during regular business hours, make reasonably available for inspection by the requesting party, and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by the requesting party, at the Company’s principal place of business, all relevant financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, the Guarantors and their respective subsidiaries reasonably requested by the requesting party or any such attorney, accountant or agent in connection with any such Registration Statement as is customary for similar due diligence examinations; and

(ii) subject to the execution of confidentiality agreements reasonably satisfactory to the Company, upon reasonable prior written notice and during regular business hours, cause the Company’s and the Guarantors’ respective officers, directors, employees, accountants and auditors to supply, at the Company’s principal place of business, all relevant information reasonably requested by the requesting party as is customary for similar due diligence examinations; provided, however, that with respect to any attorney engaged by the requesting party, the foregoing inspection and information gathering shall be coordinated by one counsel designated by the requesting party.

(q) If a Registered Exchange Offer is to be consummated, upon delivery of the Securities by Holders to the Company (or to such other person as directed by the Company) in exchange for the Exchange Notes, the Company and the Guarantors shall ▇▇▇▇, or caused to be marked, on the Securities so exchanged that such Securities are being cancelled in exchange for the Exchange Notes. In no event shall the Securities be marked as paid or otherwise satisfied.

(r) In the event that any Broker-Dealer shall underwrite any Securities or participate as a member of an underwriting syndicate or selling group or “assist in the distribution” (within the meaning of the FINRA Rules) thereof, whether as a Holder of such Securities or as an underwriter, a placement or sales agent or a broker or dealer in respect thereof, or otherwise, the Company and the Guarantors shall provide reasonable assistance to such Broker-Dealer in making filings in accordance with the FINRA Rules (which filings shall be at the expense of such Broker-Dealer).

(s) The Company and the Guarantors shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to take all other steps necessary to effect the registration of the Securities or the Exchange Notes, as the case may be, covered by a Registration Statement.

5. Registration Expenses. The Company and the Guarantors shall bear all expenses incurred in connection with the performance of their obligations under Sections 2, 3 and 4 hereof (except as set forth in Section 4(r)) and, in the event of any Shelf Registration Statement, will reimburse the Holders for the reasonable fees and disbursements of one firm of counsel (which shall initially be Shearman & Sterling LLP, but which may be another nationally recognized law firm experienced in securities matters designated by the Majority Holders) in connection with the preparation, filing and effectiveness of such Shelf Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holders of the Securities or Exchange Notes being registered shall pay all agency fees and commissions and underwriting discounts and commissions attributable to the sale of such Registrable Securities and the fees and disbursements of any counsel or other advisors or experts retained by or on behalf of such Holders (severally or jointly), other than the counsel specifically referred to above.

6. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) The Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of Securities or Exchange Notes, as the case may be, covered by any Registration Statement, each Initial Purchaser and, with respect to any Prospectus delivery as contemplated in Section 4(h) hereof, each Exchanging Dealer, the directors, officers, employees, Affiliates and agents of each such Holder, Initial Purchaser or Exchanging Dealer and each person who controls any such Holder, Initial Purchaser or Exchanging Dealer within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, or in any preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or

necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, and agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company and any Guarantor will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company or any Guarantor by or on behalf of the party claiming indemnification specifically for inclusion therein. This indemnity agreement shall be in addition to any liability that the Company and any Guarantor may otherwise have.

The Company and the Guarantors also, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify as provided in this Section 6(a) or contribute as provided in Section 6(d) hereof to Losses of each underwriter, if any, of Securities or Exchange Notes, as the case may be, registered under a Shelf Registration Statement, their directors, officers, employees, Affiliates and agents and each person who controls such underwriter on substantially the same basis as that of the indemnification of the Initial Purchasers and the selling Holders provided in this Section 6(a) and shall, if requested by any Holder, enter into an underwriting agreement reflecting such agreement, as provided in Section 4(o) hereof.

(b) Each Holder of securities covered by a Registration Statement (including each Initial Purchaser as a Holder, in such capacity) severally and not jointly agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the Guarantors, each of their respective directors, officers, employees, Affiliates and agents and each person who controls the Company or any Guarantor within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company and the Guarantors to each such Holder, but only with reference to written information relating to such Holder furnished to the Company or any Guarantor by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that any such Holder may otherwise have.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights or defenses; and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to appoint counsel (including local counsel) of the indemnifying party’s choice at the indemnifying party’s expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel, other than local counsel if not appointed by the indemnifying party, retained by the indemnified party or parties except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s election to

appoint counsel (including local counsel) to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest; (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party; (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action; or (iv) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party; provided that, in each case, not more than one such separate counsel shall be employed for all indemnified parties. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding, and (ii) does not include any statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party. In addition, no indemnified party shall, without the written consent of the indemnifying party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action, claim, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder.

(d) In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party for any reason, then each applicable indemnifying party shall have a joint and several obligation to contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any loss, claim, liability, damage or action) (collectively “Losses”) to which such indemnified party may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by such indemnifying party, on the one hand, and such indemnified party, on the other hand, from the Initial Placement and the Registration Statement which resulted in such Losses; provided, however, that in no case shall any Initial Purchaser be responsible, in the aggregate, for any amount in excess of the purchase discount or commission applicable to such Securities, or in the case of an Exchange Note, as applicable to such Securities, as set forth in the Final Memorandum, nor shall any underwriter be responsible for any amount in excess of the underwriting discount or commission applicable to the securities purchased by such underwriter under the Registration Statement which resulted in such Losses. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason, the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of such indemnifying party, on the one hand, and such indemnified party, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors

shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the Initial Placement (before deducting expenses) as set forth in the Final Memorandum. Benefits received by the Initial Purchasers shall be deemed to be equal to the total purchase discounts and commissions as set forth on the cover page of the Final Memorandum, and benefits received by any other Holders shall be deemed to be equal to the value of receiving Securities or Exchange Notes, as applicable, registered under the Act. Benefits received by any underwriter shall be deemed to be equal to the total underwriting discounts and commissions, as set forth on the cover page of the Prospectus forming a part of the Registration Statement which resulted in such Losses. Relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or any alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information provided by the indemnifying party, on the one hand, or by the indemnified party, on the other hand, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Holders were treated as one entity for such purpose) or any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section, each person who controls a Holder within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee and agent of such Holder shall have the same rights to contribution as such Holder, and each person who controls the Company or any Guarantor within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, and each director, officer, employee, Affiliate and agent of either the Company or any Guarantor shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company or any Guarantor, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this paragraph (d).

(e) The provisions of this Section will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Holder or the Company or any Guarantor or any of the indemnified parties referred to in this Section 6, and will survive the sale by a Holder of securities covered by a Registration Statement.

7. Underwritten Registrations. (a) If any of the Securities or Exchange Notes, as the case may be, covered by any Shelf Registration Statement are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the Managing Underwriters shall be selected by the Majority Holders, such selection to be subject to the Company’s prior written approval, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(b) No person may participate in any underwritten offering pursuant to any Shelf Registration Statement, unless such person (i) agrees to sell such person’s Securities or Exchange Notes, as the case may be, on the basis reasonably provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements; and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

8. Registration Defaults and Additional Interest. If (a) on or prior to the 150th day (or, if such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day) following the Closing Date, the Exchange Offer Registration Statement has not been filed, (b) on or prior to the 30^th day after such filing obligation arises (or, if later, the 150th day following the Closing Date), the Shelf Registration Statement has not been filed, (c) on or prior to the 270th day (or, if such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day) following the Closing Date the Exchange Offer Registration Statement has not been declared effective, (d) on or prior to the 75th day after the filing of a Shelf Registration Statement (or, if later, the 270th day following the Closing Date) such Shelf Registration Statement has not been declared effective, (e) on or prior to the 30th Business Day following the date the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is first declared effective, neither the Registered Exchange Offer has been consummated nor the Shelf Registration Statement has been declared effective, or (f) after the Shelf Registration Statement has been declared effective, such Registration Statement thereafter ceases to be effective or usable in connection with resales of Securities or Exchange Notes in accordance with and during the periods specified in this Agreement (other than as permitted pursuant to Section 4(c) or Section 4(k)(ii))(each such event referred to in clauses (a) through (f), (a “Registration Default”), interest (“Additional Interest”) will accrue on the principal amount of the Securities and the Exchange Notes (in addition to the stated interest on the Securities and Exchange Notes) from and including the date on which any such Registration Default shall occur to but excluding the date on which all Registration Defaults have been cured. During the continuation of a Registration Default, Additional Interest will accrue at a rate of 0.50% per annum during the 90-day period immediately following the occurrence of such Registration Default and shall increase by 0.50% per annum at the end of each subsequent 90-day period, but in no event shall such rate exceed 1.50% per annum. If, after the cure of all Registration Defaults then in effect, there is a subsequent Registration Default, the rate of Additional Interest for such subsequent Registration Default shall initially be 0.50% regardless of the rate in effect with respect to any prior Registration Default at the time of cure of such Registration Default.

All obligations of the Company and the Guarantors set forth in the preceding paragraph that are outstanding with respect to any Security at the time such Security is exchanged for an Exchange Note shall survive until such time as all such obligations with respect to such Security have been satisfied in full.

9. No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company and each of the Guarantors have not entered into, and agree not to enter into, any agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders herein or that otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof.

10. Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, qualified, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given at any time, unless the Company and the Guarantors have obtained the written consent of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Securities then outstanding; provided that, with respect to any matter that directly or indirectly affects the rights of any Initial Purchaser hereunder, the Company and the Guarantors shall obtain the written consent of each such Initial Purchaser against which such amendment, qualification, supplement, waiver or consent is to be effective; provided, further, that no amendment, qualification, supplement, waiver or consent with respect to Section 8 hereof shall

be effective as against any Holder of Registered Securities unless consented to in writing by such Holder; and provided, further, that the provisions of this Section 10 may not be amended, qualified, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless the Company and the Guarantors have obtained the written consent of each Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing (except the foregoing provisos), a waiver or consent to departure from the provisions hereof with respect to a matter that relates exclusively to the rights of Holders whose Securities or Exchange Notes, as the case may be, are being sold pursuant to a Registration Statement and that does not directly or indirectly affect the rights of other Holders in any material respect may be given by the Majority Holders, determined on the basis of Securities or Exchange Notes, as the case may be, being sold rather than registered under such Registration Statement.

11. Notices. All notices and other communications provided for or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand-delivery, first-class mail, telex, telecopier or air courier guaranteeing overnight delivery:

(a) if to a Holder, at the most current address given by such holder to the Company in accordance with the provisions of this Section 11, which address initially is, with respect to each Holder, the address of such Holder maintained by the registrar under the Indenture;

(b) if to the Representatives, initially at the address or addresses set forth in the Purchase Agreement; and

All such notices and communications shall be deemed to have been duly given when received.

The Initial Purchasers, the Company and the Guarantors by notice to the other parties may designate additional or different addresses for subsequent notices or communications.

12. Remedies. Each Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided to it herein, in the Indenture or in the Purchase Agreement (if an Initial Purchaser) or granted by law, including recovery of liquidated or other damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. The Company and each of the Guarantors agree that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby agrees to waive in any action for specific performance the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

13. Successors. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns, including, without the need for an express assignment or any consent by the Company or any Guarantor thereto, subsequent Holders of Securities and the Exchange Notes, and the indemnified persons referred to in Section 6 hereof. The Company and the Guarantors hereby agree to extend the benefits of this Agreement to any Holder of Securities and the Exchange Notes, and any such Holder may specifically enforce the provisions of this Agreement as if an original party hereto.

14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

15. Headings. The section headings used herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

16. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and to be performed in the State of New York. The parties hereto each hereby waive any right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim arising out of or relating to this Agreement.

17. Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained herein, or the application thereof in any circumstances, is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect for any reason, the validity, legality and enforceability of any such provision in every other respect and of the remaining provisions hereof shall not be in any way impaired or affected thereby, it being intended that all of the rights and privileges of the parties shall be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

18. Securities Held by the Company, etc. Whenever the consent or approval of Holders of a specified percentage of principal amount of Securities or Exchange Notes is required hereunder, Securities or Exchange Notes, as applicable, held by the Company, the Guarantors or any of their respective Affiliates (other than subsequent Holders of Securities or Exchange Notes if such subsequent Holders are deemed to be Affiliates solely by reason of their holdings of such Securities or Exchange Notes) shall not be counted in determining whether such consent or approval was given by the Holders of such required percentage.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Each broker-dealer that receives exchange notes for its own account pursuant to the exchange offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such exchange notes. This prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of exchange notes received in exchange for securities where such securities were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. Cricket has agreed that, beginning on the date of consummation of the exchange offer and ending on the close of business one year after the consummation of the exchange offer, it will make this prospectus, as amended or supplemented, available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. In addition, until _______, ____, all dealers effecting transactions in the exchange notes may be required to deliver a prospectus.

The company will not receive any proceeds from any sale of exchange notes by broker-dealers. Exchange notes received by broker-dealers for their own account pursuant to the exchange offer may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions in the over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, through the writing of options on the exchange notes or a combination of such methods of resale, at market prices prevailing at the time of resale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or negotiated prices. Any such resale may be made directly to purchasers or to or through brokers or dealers who may receive compensation in the form of commissions or concessions from any such broker-dealer and/or the purchasers of any such exchange notes. Any broker-dealer that resells exchange notes that were received by it for its own account pursuant to the exchange offer and any broker or dealer that participates in a distribution of such exchange notes may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Act and any profit of any such resale of exchange notes and any commissions or concessions received by any such persons may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Act.
