Each Holder of Registrable Securities wishing to sell Registrable Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement and related Prospectus agrees to deliver a completed and executed Notice and Questionnaire to the Company at least five (5) business days prior to any attempted or actual distribution of Registrable Securities under a Shelf Registration Statement. If a Holder becomes a Notice Holder on or after the date that is five (5) business days prior to the date the Initial Shelf Registration Statement becomes effective under

- 6 -

the Securities Act, the Company and each Guarantor shall, as promptly as practicable after the date such Holder became a Notice Holder, and in any event, subject to clause (B) below, within the later of (x) five (5) Business Days after such date (or within 15 calendar days of such date, if the Company is required to file with the SEC a new shelf registration statement) or (y) five (5) Business Days after the expiration of any Suspension Period that either (I) is in effect when such Holder became a Notice Holder or (II) is put into effect within five (5) Business Days after the date such Holder became a Notice Holder,

(A) if required by applicable law, file with the SEC a supplement to the related Prospectus or a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement or file with the SEC a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement and any necessary supplement or amendment to any document incorporated therein by reference and file any other required document with the SEC so that such Notice Holder is named as a selling securityholder in a Shelf Registration Statement and the related Prospectus in such a manner as to permit such Notice Holder to deliver a Prospectus to purchasers of the Registrable Securities in accordance with applicable law; provided, however, that, if a post-effective amendment or a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement is required by the rules and regulations of the SEC in order to permit resales by such Notice Holder, the Company shall not be required to file more than one (1) post-effective amendment or Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement for such purpose in any sixty (60) day period;

(B) if, pursuant to Section 2(d)(i)(A), the Company or any Guarantor shall have filed a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement or filed a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement, the Company and each Guarantor shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such post-effective amendment or Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement, as the case may be, to become effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable, but in any event by the date (the “Amendment Effectiveness Deadline Date,” in the case of a post-effective amendment, and the “Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement Effectiveness Deadline Date,” in the case of a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement) that is sixty (60) days after the date such post-effective amendment or Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement, as the case may be, is required by this Section 2(d) to be filed with the SEC;

(C) the Company shall provide such Notice Holder a reasonable number of copies of any documents filed pursuant to clause (A) above;

(D) the Company shall notify such Notice Holder as promptly as practicable after the effectiveness under the Securities Act of any post-effective amendment or Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement filed

(F) if, under applicable law, the Company or any Guarantor has more than one option as to the type or manner of making any such filing, the Company or such Guarantor, respectively, shall make the required filing or filings in the manner or of a type that is reasonably expected to result in the earliest availability of a Prospectus for effecting resales of Registrable Securities.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Company and the Guarantors shall be under no obligation to name any Holder that is not a Notice Holder as a selling securityholder in any Shelf Registration Statement or related Prospectus; provided, however, that any Holder of Registrable Securities that becomes a Notice Holder (regardless of when such Holder became a Notice Holder) shall be named as a selling securityholder in a Shelf Registration Statement or related Prospectus in accordance with the requirements of this Section 2(d) or Section 2(a), as applicable.

- 8 -

(iv) the Initial Shelf Registration Statement or any Subsequent Registration Statement is filed with the SEC and becomes effective under the Securities Act but shall thereafter cease to be effective (without being succeeded immediately by a new Registration Statement that is filed and immediately becomes effective under the Securities Act) or usable for the offer and sale of Registrable Securities by Notice Holders in the manner contemplated by this Agreement for a period of time (including any Suspension Period) which shall exceed forty-five (45) days in the aggregate in any three (3) month period or ninety (90) days in the aggregate in any twelve (12) month period; or

(v) any Registration Statement or amendment thereto, at the time it becomes effective under the Securities Act, or any Prospectus relating thereto, at the time it is filed with the SEC or, if later, at the time the Registration Statement to which such Prospectus relates becomes effective under the Securities Act, shall fail to name each Notice Holder as a selling securityholder in such a manner as to permit such Notice Holder to sell its Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement and Prospectus in accordance with applicable law, which Notice Holder was entitled, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, to be so named (it being understood that, without limitation, naming such Notice Holder in a manner that permits such Notice Holder to sell only a portion of such Notice Holder’s Registrable Securities referenced in such Notice Holder’s Notice and Questionnaire shall be deemed to be an “Event” (as defined below) for purposes of this clause (v)).

Each of the events of a type described in any of the foregoing clauses (i) through (v) are individually referred to herein as an “Event,” and

(V)

the Filing Deadline Date, in the case of clause (i) above,

are each herein referred to as an “Event Date.” Events shall be deemed to continue until

- 9 -

the following dates with respect to the respective types of Events:

(A) the date the Initial Shelf Registration Statement is filed with the SEC, in the case of an Event of the type described in clause (i) above;

(B) the date the Initial Shelf Registration Statement becomes effective under the Securities Act, in the case of an Event of the type described in clause (ii) above;

(D) the date the Initial Shelf Registration Statement or the Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement, as the case may be, becomes effective and usable again, or the date another Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement is filed with the SEC pursuant to Section 2(b) and becomes effective, in the case of an Event of the type described in clause (iv) above; or

(E) the date a supplement to the Prospectus is filed with the SEC, or the date a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement becomes effective under the Securities Act, or the date a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement becomes effective under the Securities Act, which supplement, post-effective amendment or Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement, as the case may be, names as selling securityholders, in such a manner as to permit them to sell their Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement and Prospectus supplement in accordance with applicable law, all Notice Holders entitled as herein provided to be so named, in the case of an Event of the type described in clause (v) above.

Accordingly, commencing on (and including) any Event Date and ending on (but excluding) the next date on which there are no Events that have occurred and are continuing (an “Additional Interest Accrual Period”), the Company and the Guarantors agree to pay, as additional interest (“additional interest”) and not as a penalty, an amount (the “Additional Interest Amount”) at the rate described below, payable periodically on each Additional Interest Payment Date to Record Holders, to the extent of, for each such Additional Interest Payment Date, the unpaid Additional Interest Amount that has accrued to (but excluding) such Additional Interest Payment Date (or, if the Additional Interest Accrual Period shall have ended prior to such Additional Interest Payment Date, the day immediately after the last day of such Additional Interest Accrual Period); provided, however, that any unpaid Additional Interest Amount that has accrued with respect to any Note, or portion thereof, called for redemption, or purchased by the Company pursuant to a repurchase at the holder’s option or repurchase for any other reason that is after the close of business on the Record Date relating to such Additional

- 10 -

Interest Payment Date and before such Additional Interest Payment Date, shall, in each case, be instead paid, on such redemption date or repurchase date, as the case may be, to the Holder who submitted such Note or portion thereof for redemption or repurchase.

The Additional Interest Amount shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to one quarter of one percent (0.25%) for the ninety (90) day period beginning on, and including, the Event Date and thereafter at a rate per annum equal to one half of one percent (0.50%) of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes of which such Record Holders were holders of record at the close of business on the applicable Record Date; provided, however, that:

(I) unless there shall be a default in the payment of any Additional Interest Amount, no Additional Interest Amounts shall accrue as to any Note from and after the earlier of (x) the date such Note is no longer a Registrable Security, (y) the date, and to the extent, such Note is converted into shares of Common Stock in accordance with the Indenture and (z) the expiration of the Effectiveness Period;

(II) only those Notice Holders (or their subsequent transferees) failing to be named as selling securityholders in the manner prescribed in Section 2(e)(v) above shall be entitled to receive any Additional Interest Amounts that have accrued solely with respect to an Event of the type described in Section 2(e)(v) above (it being understood that this clause (II) shall not impair any right of any Notice Holder to receive Additional Interest Amounts that have accrued with respect to an Event other than an Event of the type described in Section 2(e)(v) above);

(III) only those Notice Holders (or their subsequent transferees) whose delivery of a Notice and Questionnaire gave rise to the obligation of the Company or any Guarantor, pursuant to Section 2(d)(i), to file and, if applicable, make effective under the Securities Act the supplement, post-effective amendment or Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement referred to in Section 2(e)(iii) above shall be entitled to receive any Additional Interest Amounts that have accrued solely with respect to an Event of the type described in Section 2(e)(iii) above (it being understood that this clause (III) shall not impair any right of any Holder to receive Additional Interest Amounts that have accrued with respect to an Event other than an Event of the type described in Section 2(e)(iii) above); and

(IV) if a Note ceases to be outstanding during an Additional Interest Accrual Period for which an Additional Interest Amount would be payable with respect to such Note, then the Additional Interest Amount payable hereunder with respect to such Note shall be prorated on the basis of the number of full days such Note is outstanding during such Additional Interest Accrual Period.

Except as provided in the final paragraph of this Section 2(e), (i) the rate of accrual of the Additional Interest Amount with respect to any period shall not exceed the rate provided for in this Section 2(e) notwithstanding the occurrence of multiple concurrent Events and

- 11 -

(ii) following the cure of all Events requiring the payment by the Company and the Guarantors of Additional Interest Amounts to the Holders pursuant to this Section, the accrual of Additional Interest Amounts shall cease (without in any way limiting the effect of any subsequent Event requiring the payment of Additional Interest Amounts by the Company and each Guarantor). All installments of additional interest shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified by the Notice Holder or, if no such account is specified, by mailing a check to such Notice Holder’s address shown in the register of the registrar for the Notes.

All of the Company’s and Guarantors’ obligations set forth in this Section 2(e) that are outstanding with respect to any Registrable Security at the time such Registrable Security ceases to be a Registrable Security shall survive until such time as all such obligations with respect to such security have been satisfied in full (notwithstanding termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8(n)).

The parties hereto agree that the additional interest provided for in this Section 2(e) constitutes a reasonable estimate of the damages in respect of the Notes that may be incurred by Holders of the Notes by reason of an Event relating to such Notes, including, without limitation, the failure of a Shelf Registration Statement to be filed, become effective under the Securities Act, amended or replaced to include the names of all Notice Holders or available for effecting resales of Registrable Securities in accordance with the provisions hereof.

(f) The Trustee shall be entitled, on behalf of Holders, to seek any available remedy for the enforcement of this Agreement, including for the payment of any Additional Interest Amount.

3. Registration Procedures. In connection with the registration obligations of the Company under Section 2 hereof, the Company and each Guarantor shall:

(a) Prepare and file with the SEC a Shelf Registration Statement or Shelf Registration Statements on Form S-1 or Form S-3 or any other appropriate form under the Securities Act available for the sale of the Registrable Securities by the Notice Holders thereof in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution thereof, and use its reasonable best efforts to cause each such Shelf Registration Statement to become effective under the Securities Act and remain effective under the Securities Act as provided herein, provided that if the Company and the Guarantors are then eligible to file an Initial Shelf Registration Statement on form S-3ASR, the Company shall file such Initial Shelf Registration Statement on such form; provided, that, before filing any Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto with the SEC, the Company and the Guarantors shall furnish to the Initial Purchasers and counsel for the Initial Purchasers copies of all such documents proposed to be filed and reflect in each such document when so filed with the SEC such comments as the Initial Purchasers or such counsel reasonably shall propose within three (3) Business Days of the delivery of such copies to the Initial Purchasers and such counsel.

(h) Prior to any public offering of the Registrable Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement, use its reasonable best efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the Notice Holders in connection with the registration or qualification (or exemption from such registration or qualification) of such Registrable Securities for offer and sale under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions within the United States as any Notice Holder reasonably requests in writing (which request may be included in the Notice and Questionnaire); use its reasonable best efforts to keep each such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the Effectiveness Period in connection with such Notice Holder’s offer and sale of

- 14 -

Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) and do any and all other acts or things reasonably necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of such Registrable Securities in the manner set forth in the relevant Shelf Registration Statement and the related Prospectus; provided, however, that the Company and the Guarantors will not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where they are not then so qualified.

(i) Upon: (A) the occurrence or existence of any pending corporate development (a “Material Event”) that, in the reasonable discretion of the Company, makes it appropriate to suspend the availability of any Shelf Registration Statement and the related Prospectus; (B) the issuance by the SEC of a stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Shelf Registration Statement or the initiation of proceedings with respect to any Shelf Registration Statement under Section 8(d) or 8(e) of the Securities Act; or (C) the occurrence of any event or the existence of any fact as a result of which any Shelf Registration Statement shall contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or any Prospectus shall contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading,

(i) in the case of clause (C) above, subject to the next sentence, as promptly as practicable, prepare and file, if necessary pursuant to applicable law, a post-effective amendment to such Shelf Registration Statement or a supplement to such Prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other required document that would be incorporated by reference into such Shelf Registration Statement and Prospectus so that such Shelf Registration Statement does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and so that such Prospectus does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the Registrable Securities being sold thereunder, and, in the case of a post-effective amendment to a Shelf Registration Statement, subject to the next sentence, use its reasonable best efforts to cause it to become effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable, and

(ii) give notice to the Notice Holders, counsel for the Initial Purchasers and to the Initial Purchasers that the availability of the Shelf Registration Statement is suspended (a “Suspension Notice”) (and, upon receipt of any Suspension Notice, each Notice Holder agrees not to sell any Registrable Securities pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement until such Notice Holder’s receipt of copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus provided for in clause (i) above or until such Notice Holder is advised in writing by the Company that the Prospectus may be used).

- 15 -

The Company and each Guarantor will use its reasonable best efforts to ensure that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed (x) in the case of clause (A) above, as soon as, in the reasonable discretion of the Company, such suspension is no longer appropriate, (y) in the case of clause (B) above, as promptly as is practicable, and (z) in the case of clause (C) above, as soon as, in the reasonable judgment of the Company, the Shelf Registration Statement does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and the Prospectus does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The period during which the availability of the Shelf Registration Statement and any Prospectus may be suspended (the “Suspension Period”) without the Company and the Guarantors incurring any obligation to pay additional interest pursuant to Section 2(e) shall not exceed forty-five (45) days in the aggregate in any three (3) month period or ninety (90) days in the aggregate in any twelve (12) month period.

(j) Comply in all material respects with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC; and make generally available to their securityholders earnings statements (which need not be audited) satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder (or any similar rule promulgated under the Securities Act), which statements shall cover a period of twelve (12) months commencing on the first day of the first fiscal quarter of the Company commencing after the effective date of each Shelf Registration Statement (within the meaning of Rule 158(c) under the Securities Act), and which statements shall be so made generally available to the their securityholders no later than forty (40) days after the end of the applicable twelve (12) month period (or, if such earnings statement is filed with the SEC on Form 10-K under the Exchange Act, (i) seventy five (75) days after the end of the applicable twelve (12) month period if such period ends before December 15, 2006 or (ii) sixty (60) days after the end of the applicable twelve (12) month period if such period ends on or after December 15, 2006); provided, however, that, to the extent any such earnings statement will be contained in one report, or any combination of reports, on Form 10-K and/or Form 10-Q under the Exchange Act filed by the Company with the SEC and the deadline, under the Exchange Act, for the Company to file, with the SEC, such report, if such earnings statement is contained in a Form 10-K, or to file, with the SEC, the last of such reports which together constitute such earnings statement, if such earnings statement is contained in a combination of reports, is a date that is later than the applicable foregoing deadline, then such later date shall apply in place of the otherwise applicable foregoing deadline.

(k) Cooperate with each Notice Holder to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities sold pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement, which certificates shall not bear any restrictive legends, and cause such Registrable Securities to be in such denominations as are permitted by the Indenture and registered in such names as such Notice Holder may request in writing at least two (2) Business Days prior to any sale of such Registrable Securities.

- 16 -

(l) Provide a CUSIP number for all Registrable Securities covered by a Shelf Registration Statement not later than the effective date of the Initial Shelf Registration Statement and provide the Trustee and the transfer agent for the Common Stock with certificates for the Registrable Securities that are in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company.

(m) Cooperate and assist in any filings required to be made with the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.

(n) Upon the filing of the Initial Shelf Registration Statement, and upon the effectiveness under the Securities Act of the Initial Shelf Registration Statement, announce the same, in each case by release through a reputable national newswire service.

(o) Cause the Indenture to be qualified under the TIA not later than the effective date of the Initial Shelf Registration Statement; and, in connection therewith, cooperate with the Trustee to effect such changes to the Indenture as may be required for the Indenture to be so qualified in accordance with the terms of the TIA and execute, and use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Trustee to execute, all documents as may be required to effect such changes, and all other forms and documents required to be filed with the SEC to enable the Indenture to be so qualified in a timely manner.

(p) Cause the Underlying Common Stock to be listed on The New York Stock Exchange.

4. Holder’s Obligations. Each Holder agrees, by acquisition of the Registrable Securities, that no Holder of Registrable Securities shall be entitled to sell any of such Registrable Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement or to receive a Prospectus relating thereto, unless such Holder has furnished the Company with a Notice and Questionnaire as required pursuant to Section 2(d) hereof (including the information required to be included in such Notice and Questionnaire) and the information set forth in the next sentence. Each Notice Holder agrees promptly to furnish to the Company all information required to be disclosed in order to make the information previously furnished to the Company by such Notice Holder not misleading and any other information regarding such Notice Holder and the distribution of such Registrable Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably request. Any sale of any Registrable Securities by any Holder shall constitute a representation and warranty by such Holder that the information relating to such Holder and its plan of distribution is as set forth in the Prospectus delivered by such Holder in connection with such disposition, that such Prospectus does not as of the time of such sale contain any untrue statement of a material fact relating to or provided by such Holder or its plan of distribution and that such Prospectus does not as of the time of such sale omit to state any material fact relating to or provided by such Holder or its plan of distribution necessary in order to make the statements in such Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

Registration Expenses. The Company and each Guarantor shall bear all fees and

- 17 -

expenses incurred in connection with the performance by the Company of its obligations under Section 2 and Section 3 of this Agreement whether or not any of the Shelf Registration Statements are filed or declared effective under the Securities Act. Such fees and expenses (“Registration Expenses”) shall include, without limitation, (i) all registration and filing fees and expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses (x) with respect to filings required to be made with the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. and (y) of compliance with federal securities laws and state securities or Blue Sky laws (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Initial Purchasers in connection with Blue Sky qualifications of the Registrable Securities under the laws of such jurisdictions as the Notice Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities being sold pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement may designate), (ii) all printing expenses (including, without limitation, expenses of printing certificates for Registrable Securities in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company and printing Prospectuses), (iii) all duplication and mailing expenses relating to copies of any Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus delivered to any Notice Holders hereunder, (iv) all fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company in connection with the Shelf Registration Statement, (v) reasonable fees and disbursements of the Trustee and its counsel and of the registrar and transfer agent for the Common Stock, (vi) the reasonable fees and disbursements, in connection with the review of the Shelf Registration Statement(s), of counsel for the Initial Purchasers and the Holders, which fees and disbursements shall not exceed an aggregate of twenty thousand dollars ($20,000) during the term of this Agreement and (vii) Securities Act liability insurance obtained by the Company in its sole discretion. In addition, the Company shall pay the internal expenses of the Company (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expense of any annual audit or quarterly review, the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing by the Company of the Underlying Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange and the fees and expenses of any person, including, without limitation, special experts, retained by the Company.

Indemnification, Contribution.

(a) The Company and each Guarantor agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser, each Notice Holder, each person (a “Controlling Person”), if any, who controls any Initial Purchaser or Notice Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and the respective officers, directors, partners, employees, representatives and agents of any Initial Purchaser, the Notice Holders or any Controlling Person (each, an “Indemnified Party”), from and against any loss, damage, expense, liability, claim or any actions in respect thereof (including the reasonable cost of investigation) which such Indemnified Party may incur or become subject to under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, damage, expense, liability, claim or action arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus, including any document incorporated by reference therein, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated in any Shelf Registration Statement or in any amendment or supplement thereto or necessary to make the statements therein not

- 18 -

misleading, or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made in any Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the Company and the Guarantors shall not be required to provide any indemnification pursuant to this Section 6(a) in any such case insofar as any such loss, damage, expense, liability, claim or action arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission of a material fact contained in, or omitted from, and in conformity with information furnished in writing by or on behalf of an Initial Purchaser or a Holder to the Company expressly for use in, any Shelf Registration Statement or any Prospectus; provided further, however, that this indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company and the Guarantors may otherwise have to such Indemnified Party.

(b) Each Holder, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company, and each Guarantor, its directors, officers, employees and any person who controls the Company or any Guarantor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (each, a “Company Indemnified Party”) from and against any loss, damage, expense, liability, claim or any actions in respect thereof (including the reasonable cost of investigation) which such Company Indemnified Party may incur or become subject to under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, damage, expense, liability, claim or action arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in, and in conformity with information (the “Holder Information”) furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Holder to the Company expressly for use in, any Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus, or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in connection with such Holder Information required to be stated in any Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus or necessary to make such Holder Information not misleading. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which such Holder may otherwise have to the Company and each Guarantor or any of its controlling persons. In no event shall the liability of any selling Holder of Registrable Securities hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds received by such Holder upon the sale, pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

(c) If any action, suit or proceeding (each, a “Proceeding”) is brought against any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to either Section 6(a) or Section 6(b), such person (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of the institution of such Proceeding and the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense of such Proceeding; provided, however, that the omission to so notify such Indemnifying Party shall not relieve such Indemnifying Party from any liability which it may have to such Indemnified Party, except to the extent that the indemnifying party has been prejudiced in any material respect by such failure through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses. Such Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ its own counsel

- 19 -

in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party unless the employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing by such Indemnifying Party in connection with the defense of such Proceeding or such Indemnifying Party shall not have employed counsel to have charge of the defense of such Proceeding within thirty (30) days of the receipt of notice thereof or such Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded upon the written advice of counsel that there may be one or more defenses available to it that are different from, additional to or in conflict with those available to such Indemnifying Party (in which case such Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to direct that portion of the defense of such Proceeding on behalf of the Indemnified Party, but such Indemnifying Party may employ counsel and participate in the defense thereof but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnifying Party), in any of which events such reasonable fees and expenses shall be borne by such Indemnifying Party and paid as incurred (it being understood, however, that such Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel in any one Proceeding or series of related Proceedings together with reasonably necessary local counsel representing all the Indemnified Parties). An Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of such Proceeding effected without the written consent of such Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, but if settled with the written consent of such Indemnifying Party, such Indemnifying Party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless an Indemnified Party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of any Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Proceeding in respect of which such Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding and does not include an admission of fault or culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6 is unavailable to an Indemnified Party under Section 6(a) or Section 6(b), or insufficient to hold such Indemnified Party harmless, in respect of any losses, damages, expenses, liabilities, claims or actions referred to therein, then each applicable Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such losses, damages, expenses, liabilities, claims or actions (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and by the Holders or the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, from the offering of the Registrable Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and of the Holders or the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, damages, expenses, liabilities, claims or actions, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and of the Holders or the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue

- 20 -

statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission relates to information supplied by the Company or Guarantors or by the Holders or the Initial Purchasers and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, damages, expenses, liabilities, claims and actions referred to above shall be deemed to include any reasonable legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating or defending any Proceeding.

(e) The Company, and each Guarantor, the Holders and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 6(d) above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6, no Holder shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Registrable Securities giving rise to such contribution obligation and sold by such Holder were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which it has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Holders’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 6 are several in proportion to the respective amount of Registrable Securities they have sold pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement, and not joint. The remedies provided for in this Section 6 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.

(f) The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 6 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Holder or the Initial Purchasers or any person controlling any Holder or Initial Purchaser, or the Company or the Guarantors, or the Company’s or any of the Guarantors’ officers or directors or any person controlling the Company or any Guarantor and (iii) the sale of any Registrable Security by any Holder.

Information Requirements.

(a) The Company covenants that, if at any time before the end of the Effectiveness Period it is not subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, it will cooperate with any Notice Holder of Registrable Securities and take such further action as any Notice Holder of Registrable Securities may reasonably request in writing (including, without limitation, making such representations as any such Holder may reasonably request), all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitations of the exemptions provided by Rule 144, Rule 144A, Regulation S and Regulation D under the Securities Act and customarily taken in connection with sales

- 21 -

pursuant to such exemptions. Upon the written request of any Notice Holder of Registrable Securities, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether the Company has complied with the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, unless such a statement has been included in the Company’s most recent report filed with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of Exchange Act.

(b) The Company and each Guarantor shall file the reports required to be filed by it under the Exchange Act.

Miscellaneous.

(a) Remedies. The Company acknowledges and agrees that any failure by the Company or any Guarantor to comply with its obligations under this Agreement may result in material irreparable injury to the Initial Purchasers and the Holders for which there is no adequate remedy at law, that it will not be possible to measure damages for such injuries precisely and that, in the event of any such failure, any Initial Purchaser or Holder may obtain such relief as may be required to specifically enforce the Company’s and each of the Guarantors’ obligations under this Agreement. The Company and each Guarantor further agrees to waive the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate. Notwithstanding the foregoing two sentences, this Section 8(a) shall not apply to the subject matter referred to in and contemplated by Section 2(e).

(b) No Conflicting Agreements. The Company and each Guarantor is not, as of the date hereof, a party to, nor shall it, on or after the date of this Agreement, enter into, any agreement with respect to the Company’s or the Guarantor’s securities that conflicts with the rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement. The Company and each Guarantor represents and warrants that the rights granted to the Holders hereunder do not in any way conflict with the rights granted to the holders of the Company’s or the Guarantor’s securities under any other agreements.

(c) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless the Company has obtained the written consent of Holders of a majority of outstanding Registrable Securities; provided, however, that, no consent is necessary from any of the Holders in the event that this Agreement is amended, modified or supplemented for the purpose of curing any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or consent to depart from the provisions hereof with respect to a matter that relates exclusively to the rights of Holders of Registrable Securities whose securities are being sold pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement and that does not directly or indirectly affect the rights of other Holders of Registrable Securities may be given by Holders of at least a majority of the Registrable Securities being sold by such Holders pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement; provided, however, that the provisions of this sentence may not be amended, modified, or supplemented except in accordance with the provisions of the immediately

- 22 -

preceding sentence. Each Holder of Registrable Securities outstanding at the time of any such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent or thereafter shall be bound by any such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent effected pursuant to this Section 8(c), whether or not any notice, writing or marking indicating such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent appears on the Registrable Securities or is delivered to such Holder.

(d) Notices. All notices and other communications provided for or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand delivery, by telecopier, by courier guaranteeing overnight delivery or by first-class mail, return receipt requested, and shall be deemed given (A) when made, if made by hand delivery, (B) upon confirmation, if made by telecopier, (C) one (1) Business Day after being deposited with such courier, if made by overnight courier or (D) on the date indicated on the notice of receipt, if made by first-class mail, to the parties as follows:

(e) Majority of Registrable Securities. For purposes of determining what constitutes holders of a majority of Registrable Securities, as referred to in this Agreement, a majority shall constitute a majority in aggregate principal amount of Notes, treating each relevant holder of shares of Underlying Common Stock of the Notes as a holder of the aggregate principal amount of Notes in respect of which such Common Stock was issued.

(f) Approval of Holders. Whenever the consent or approval of Holders of a specified percentage of Registrable Securities is required hereunder, Registrable Securities held by the Company and each Guarantor or any of their “affiliates” (as such term is defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) (other than the Initial Purchasers or subsequent Holders of Registrable Securities, if the Initial Purchasers or such subsequent Holders are deemed to be such affiliates solely by reason of their holdings of such Registrable Securities) shall not be counted in determining whether such consent or approval was given by the Holders of such required percentage.

(g) Third Party Beneficiaries. The Holders shall be third party beneficiaries to the agreements made hereunder between the Company and each Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, and shall have the right to enforce such agreements directly to the extent they may deem such enforcement necessary or advisable to protect their rights or the rights of Holders hereunder. The Trustee shall be entitled to the rights granted to it pursuant to this Agreement.

(h) Successors and Assigns. Any person who purchases any Covered Security from any Initial Purchaser or from any Holder shall be deemed, for purposes of this Agreement, to be an assignee of such Initial Purchaser or such Holder, as the case may be. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective successors and assigns of each of the parties hereto and shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon each Holder of any Covered Security.

(i) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

(j) Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.

(k)

(l) Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby, and the parties hereto shall use their reasonable best efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction, it being intended that all of the rights and privileges of the parties shall be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

(m) Entire Agreement. This Agreement is intended by the parties hereto as a final expression of their agreement and is intended to be a complete and exclusive statement of the agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein and the registration rights granted by the Company and each Guarantor with respect to the Registrable Securities. Except as provided in the Purchase Agreement, there are no restrictions, promises, warranties or undertakings, other than those set forth or referred to herein, with respect to the registration rights granted by the Company and each Guarantor with respect to the Registrable Securities. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and undertakings among the parties with respect to such registration rights. No party hereto shall have any rights, duties or obligations other than those specifically set forth in this Agreement.

(n) Termination. This Agreement and the obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate upon the end of the Effectiveness Period, except for any liabilities or obligations under Section 4, Section 5 or Section 6 hereof and the obligations to make payments of and provide for additional interest under Section 2(e) hereof to the extent such additional interest accrues prior to the end of the Effectiveness Period, each of which shall remain in effect in accordance with its terms.

(o) Submission to Jurisdiction. Except as set forth below, no claim, counterclaim or dispute of any kind or nature whatsoever arising out of or in any way relating to this Agreement (“Claim”) may be commenced, prosecuted or continued in any court other than the courts of the State of New York located in the City and County of New York or in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, which courts shall have jurisdiction over the adjudication of such matters, and the Company and each of the Initial Purchasers hereby consents to the jurisdiction of such courts and personal service with respect thereto. The Company hereby consents to personal jurisdiction, service and venue in any court in which any Claim arising out of or in any way relating to this Agreement is brought by any third party against any Initial Purchaser. THE COMPANY AND EACH GUARANTOR HEREBY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDING (WHETHER BASED UPON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT. The Company and each Guarantor agrees that a

final judgment in any such Proceeding brought in any such court shall be conclusive and binding upon the Company and each Guarantor and may be enforced in any other courts in the jurisdiction of which the Company and the Guarantors, respectively, is or may be subject, by suit upon such judgment.
