The (a) Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication and (b) any Additional Notes (if issued as Transfer Restricted Notes) and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Indenture. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule, agreements to which the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor is subject, if any, or usage (provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Company). Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. The Notes shall be issuable only in registered form without interest coupons and only in denominations of $2,000 and whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The terms of the Notes set forth in the Appendix and Exhibits hereto are part of the terms of this Indenture. However, to the extent any provision of any Note conflicts with the express provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

SECTION 2.02. Execution and Authentication. One Officer of the Company shall sign the Notes for the Company by manual or facsimile signature.

If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note, the Note shall be valid nevertheless.

68

A Note shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on the Note. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture.

On the Issue Date, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver $750,000,000 of 6.250% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2033 and, at any time and from time to time thereafter, upon receipt of a Company Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver Additional Notes in an aggregate principal amount specified in a Company Order. Such Company Order shall specify the amount of the Additional Notes to be authenticated and the date on which the issue of Additional Notes is to be authenticated and shall certify that such issuance is in compliance with Section 4.03 and Section 4.13. The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent reasonably acceptable to the Company to authenticate the Notes. Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an instrument signed by a Responsible Officer, a copy of which shall be furnished to the Company. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as any Registrar, Paying Agent or agent for service of notices and demands.

SECTION 2.03. Registrar and Paying Agent. (a) The Company shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the “Registrar”) and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (the “Paying Agent”). The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Company may have one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent, and the term “Registrar” includes any co-registrars. The Company initially appoints the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office as (i) Registrar and Paying Agent in connection with the Notes and (ii) the Notes Custodian with respect to the Global Notes. In acting hereunder in connection with the Notes, the Notes Custodian, the Registrar and the Paying Agent shall act solely as an agent of the Company, and will not thereby assume any fiduciary duty or other obligations towards or relationship of agency or trust for or with any of the owners or Holders.

(b) The Company shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Registrar, Paying Agent or co-registrar not a party to this Indenture. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The Company shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of any such agent. If the Company fails to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 7.06. The Company or any of its domestically organized Wholly Owned Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar.

(c) The Company may remove any Registrar or Paying Agent upon written notice to such Registrar or Paying Agent and to the Trustee; provided, however, that no such removal shall become effective until (i) acceptance of an appointment by a successor as evidenced by an appropriate agreement entered into by the Company and such successor Registrar or Paying Agent, as the case may be, and delivered to the Trustee or (ii) notification to the Trustee that the Trustee shall serve as Registrar or Paying Agent until the appointment of a successor in accordance with clause (i) above. The Registrar or Paying Agent may resign at any time upon written notice to the Company and the Trustee.

69

SECTION 2.04. Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. Prior to each due date of the principal of and interest on any Note, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or if the Company or a Wholly Owned Subsidiary is acting as Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto) a sum sufficient to pay such principal and interest when so becoming due. The Company shall require each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to agree in writing that the Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes, and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment. If the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money held by it as Paying Agent and hold it as a separate trust fund. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by the Paying Agent. Upon complying with this Section 2.04, the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the Trustee.

SECTION 2.05. Holder Lists. The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Holders. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company shall furnish, or cause the Registrar to furnish, to the Trustee, in writing at least five Business Days before each interest payment date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of Holders.

SECTION 2.06. Transfer and Exchange. The Notes shall be issued in registered form and shall be transferable only upon the surrender of a Note for registration of transfer and in compliance with the Appendix. When a Note is presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to register a transfer, the Registrar shall register the transfer as requested if the requirements of this Indenture and Section 8-401(1) of the Uniform Commercial Code are met. When Notes are presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Notes of other denominations, the Registrar shall make the exchange as requested if the same requirements are met. To permit registration of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute and upon receipt of a Company Order, the Trustee shall authenticate Notes at the Registrar’s or co-registrar’s request. The Company or the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to pay all taxes, assessments or other governmental charges in connection with any transfer or exchange pursuant to this Section 2.06 (other than any such transfer taxes, assessments or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.07, 3.06, 4.06, 4.08 and 9.04). The Company shall not be required to make and the Registrar need not register transfers or exchanges of Notes selected for redemption (except, in the case of Notes to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed) or any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or 15 days before an interest payment date.

70

Prior to the due presentation for registration of transfer of any Note, the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar and any co-registrar may deem and treat the Person in whose name a Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and (subject to Section 2 of the Notes) interest, if any, on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note is overdue, and none of the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar or any co-registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Any Holder of a Global Note shall, by acceptance of such Global Note, agree that transfers of beneficial interest in such Global Note may be effected only through a book-entry system maintained by (a) the Holder of such Global Note (or its agent) or (b) any Holder of a beneficial interest in such Global Note, and that ownership of a beneficial interest in such Global Note shall be required to be reflected in a book entry.

All Notes issued upon any transfer or exchange pursuant to the terms of this Indenture shall evidence the same debt and shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as the Notes surrendered upon such transfer or exchange.

SECTION 2.07. Replacement Notes. If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder of a Note claims that the Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company shall issue and upon receipt of a Company Order, the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note if the requirements of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code are met, such that the Holder (a) satisfies the Company or the Trustee within a reasonable time after such Holder has notice of such loss, destruction or wrongful taking and the Registrar does not register a transfer prior to receiving such notification, (b) makes such request to the Company or the Trustee prior to the Note being acquired by a protected purchaser as defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code (a “protected purchaser”) and (c) satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Trustee. If required by the Trustee or the Company, such Holder shall furnish an indemnity, security and/or indemnity bond sufficient in the judgment of the Company and the Trustee to protect the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar and any co-registrar from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Company and the Trustee may charge the Holder a sum sufficient for their expenses in replacing a Note. In the event any such mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may pay such Note instead of issuing a new Note in replacement thereof.

Every replacement Note is an additional Obligation of the Company.

The provisions of this Section 2.07 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Notes.

71

SECTION 2.08. Outstanding Notes. Notes outstanding at any time are all Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Subject to Section 11.05, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Note.

If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee and the Company receive proof satisfactory to them that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser.

If the Paying Agent segregates and holds in trust, in accordance with this Indenture, on a redemption date or maturity date money sufficient to pay all principal and interest payable on that date with respect to the Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed or maturing, as the case may be, then on and after that date such Notes (or portions thereof) cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue.

SECTION 2.09. Temporary Notes. In the event that Definitive Notes are to be issued under the terms of this Indenture, until such Definitive Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and execute a Company Order, upon receipt of which, the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of Definitive Notes but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Notes. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and execute a Company Order, upon receipt of which, the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Notes and deliver them in exchange for temporary Notes upon surrender of such temporary Notes at the office or agency of the Company, without charge to the Holder.

SECTION 2.10. Cancellation. The Company at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel and destroy (subject to the record retention requirements of the Exchange Act) all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation and deliver a certificate of such destruction to the Company unless the Company directs the Trustee to deliver canceled Notes to the Company pursuant to written direction by an Officer. The Company may not issue new Notes to replace Notes it has redeemed, paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. The Trustee shall not authenticate Notes in place of cancelled Notes other than pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.

SECTION 2.11. Defaulted Interest. If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, the Company shall pay the defaulted interest (plus interest on such defaulted interest to the extent lawful) in any lawful manner. The Company may pay the defaulted interest to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date. The Company shall fix or cause to be fixed any such special record date and payment date to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee and shall promptly deliver or cause to be delivered to each Holder a notice that states the special record date, the payment date and the amount of defaulted interest to be paid. The Trustee will have no duty or responsibility to determine whether any defaulted interest is payable or the amount thereof.

72

SECTION 2.12. CUSIP Numbers, ISINs, etc. The Company in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP” numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers (in each case if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” 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 Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company shall promptly advise the Trustee in writing of any change in any “CUSIP” numbers, ISINs or “Common Code” numbers applicable to the Notes.

SECTION 2.13. Issuance of Additional Notes. After the Issue Date, the Company shall be entitled, subject to its compliance with Section 4.03 and Section 4.13, to issue Additional Notes under this Indenture, which Notes shall have identical terms as the Notes issued on the Issue Date, other than with respect to the date of issuance, issue price, original interest accrual date and original interest payment date. All the Notes issued under this Indenture shall be treated as a single class for all purposes of this Indenture, including waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase; provided, however, that in the event that any Additional Notes are not fungible with the Notes for U.S. Federal income tax purposes, such nonfungible Additional Notes shall be issued with a separate CUSIP or ISIN number so that they are distinguishable from the Notes.

With respect to any Additional Notes, the Company shall set forth in a resolution of the Board of Directors and an Officer’s Certificate, a copy of each which shall be delivered to the Trustee, the following information:

(a) the aggregate principal amount of such Additional Notes to be authenticated and delivered pursuant to this Indenture and the provision of Section 4.03 and Section 4.13 that the Company is relying on to issue such Additional Notes; and

(b) the issue price, the issue date and the CUSIP number of such Additional Notes.

In authenticating and delivering Additional Notes, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and shall be fully protected in relying upon, the Opinion of Counsel and Officer’s Certificate required by Section 11.02.

SECTION 2.14. Maintenance of Office or Agency.

The Company will maintain, an office or agency (which may be an office of the Trustee or an affiliate of the Trustee) where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange. If the Definitive Notes are issued and outstanding, such office must be in the contiguous United States. The Company initially

73

designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Company fails to maintain any such required office or agency or fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations and surrenders may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee; provided that, no office of the Trustee shall be an office or agency of the Company for the purposes of service of legal process on the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor.

The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission will in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in the contiguous United States for such purposes if required. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

With respect to any Global Notes, the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee shall be the office or agency where such Global Notes may be presented or surrendered for payment or for registration of transfer or exchange, or where successor Notes may be delivered in exchange therefor; provided, however, that any such presentation, surrender or delivery effected pursuant to the applicable procedures of the applicable depositary shall be deemed to have been effected at such office or agency in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.

ARTICLE 3

Redemption

SECTION 3.01. Notices to Trustee. If the Company elects to redeem Notes pursuant to Section 5 of the Notes, it shall notify the Trustee in writing of the redemption date and the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed.

The Company shall give each notice to the Trustee provided for in this Section 3.01 at least 60 days before the redemption date unless the Trustee consents to a shorter period. Such notice shall be accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel from the Company to the effect that such redemption shall comply with the conditions herein. Any such notice may be canceled by written notice of the Company to the Trustee at any time prior to notice of such redemption being delivered to any Holder pursuant to Section 3.03 and shall thereby be void and of no effect.

SECTION 3.02. Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed. If fewer than all the Notes are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be redeemed on a pro rata basis to the extent practicable, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee shall deem to be fair and appropriate, subject to the applicable procedures of DTC, unless another method is required by law or applicable exchange or depositary requirements.

74

The Trustee shall make the selection from outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption. The Trustee may select for redemption portions of the principal of Notes that have denominations larger than $2,000. Notes and portions of them the Trustee selects shall be in principal amounts of $2,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, to the extent practicable. The Company shall redeem Notes in principal amounts of $2,000 or less in whole and not in part, to the extent practicable. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption.

SECTION 3.03. Notice of Redemption. (a) At least 10 days but not more than 60 days before a date for redemption of Notes, the Company shall cause notices of redemption to be delivered electronically, in accordance with DTC procedures in the case of Global Notes, or be mailed by first-class mail (or otherwise delivered through the depositary’s requirement if the Notes are held through a depositary) to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at such Holder’s registered address, except that redemption notices may be delivered electronically, in accordance with DTC procedures in the case of Global Notes, or be mailed more than 60 days prior to the redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. Any inadvertent defect in the notice of redemption, including an inadvertent failure to give notice, to any Holder selected for redemption shall not impair or affect the validity of the redemption of any other Note redeemed in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.

The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed and shall state:

(i) the redemption date;

(ii) the redemption price and the amount of accrued interest to the redemption date;

(iii) the name and address of the Paying Agent;

(iv) that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price;

(v) if fewer than all the outstanding Notes are to be redeemed (and if other than on a pro rata basis), the identification numbers and principal amounts (which amounts may be stated as a ratio of the amount to be redeemed per $1,000 principal amount outstanding) of the particular Notes to be redeemed;

(vi) that, unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment, interest on Notes (or portion thereof) called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date;

(vii) the “CUSIP” number, ISIN or “Common Code” number, if any, printed on the Notes being redeemed; and

75

(viii) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the “CUSIP” number, ISIN or “Common Code” number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes.

(b) At the Company’s request, upon written notice provided to the Trustee at least 45 days prior to the redemption date, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense. In such event, the Company shall provide the Trustee with the information required by this Section 3.03 and a copy of the proposed notice of redemption to be delivered or mailed, as applicable, to the Holders at least two Business Days prior to the date that such notice is to be delivered to Holders (or such shorter period as the Trustee may agree to).

(c) Any redemption or notice of redemption may, at the Company’s option and discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including the consummation of an incurrence or issuance of debt or equity or a Change of Control or other corporate transaction. In addition, if such redemption is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice of redemption shall describe each such condition and, if applicable, shall state that, in the Company’s discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Company in its sole discretion) or that such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied (or waived by the Company in its sole discretion) by the redemption date as stated in such notice, or by the redemption date as so delayed. The Company may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and performance of the Company’s obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.

(d) The Company may redeem the Notes pursuant to one or more of the relevant redemption provisions set forth in Section 5 of the Notes, and a single notice of redemption may be delivered with respect to redemptions made pursuant to different provisions. Any such notice may provide that redemptions made pursuant to different provisions set forth in Section 5 of the Notes will have different redemption dates and, with respect to the redemptions that occur on the same date, may specify the order in which such redemptions are deemed to occur.

SECTION 3.04. Effect of Notice of Redemption. Once notice of redemption is delivered or mailed, as applicable, pursuant to Section 3.03, subject to Section 3.03(c), Notes called for redemption become due and payable on the redemption date and at the redemption price stated in the notice. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Notes shall be paid at the redemption price stated in the notice, plus accrued interest and Applicable Premium, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date; provided, however, that if the redemption date is after a regular record date and on or prior to the interest payment date, the accrued interest and Applicable Premium, if any, shall be payable to the Holder of the redeemed Notes registered on the relevant record date. Failure to give notice or any defect in the notice to any Holder shall not affect the validity of the notice to any other Holder.

76

SECTION 3.05. Deposit of Redemption Price. No later than 10:00 a.m. New York City time on the redemption date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or, if the Company or a Wholly Owned Subsidiary is the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest and Applicable Premium, if any, on all Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed on that date other than Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption that have been delivered by the Company to the Trustee for cancellation. On and after the redemption date, interest shall cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption so long as the Company has deposited with the Paying Agent funds sufficient to pay the principal of, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Applicable Premium, if any, on, the Notes to be redeemed, unless the Paying Agent is prohibited from making such payment pursuant to the terms of this Indenture. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall be responsible for calculating the Applicable Premium and the Adjusted Treasury Rate. The Trustee shall have no duty to calculate the Applicable Premium and the Adjusted Treasury Rate nor shall it have any duty to review or verify the Company’s calculations of the Applicable Premium and the Adjusted Treasury Rate. All such calculations made by the Company will be made in good faith and, absent manifest error, will be final and binding on the Trustee. The Company will provide a schedule of such calculations to the Trustee, and the Trustee will be entitled to conclusively rely on the accuracy of such calculations without independent verification.

SECTION 3.06. Notes Redeemed in Part. Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed in part, the Company shall execute and, upon receipt of a Company Order, the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder (at the Company’s expense) a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Note surrendered.

SECTION 3.07. Escrow Special Mandatory Redemption. (a) In the event that (i) the Escrow Agent shall not have received the Officer’s Certificate described in Section 3(b)(i) of the Escrow Agreement on or prior to the Outside Date or (ii) the Company shall notify the Escrow Agent in writing that the Company has determined that the Spin-Off will not be consummated on or prior to the Outside Date or otherwise announces that the Spin-Off has been or will be abandoned (each such event being an “Escrow Special Mandatory Redemption Event”), the Company will redeem all of the Notes (the “Escrow Special Mandatory Redemption”) at a price equal to 100% of the initial issue price of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest from the Issue Date, or from the most recent date to which interest has been paid, to, but not including the Escrow Special Mandatory Redemption Date (the “Escrow Special Mandatory Redemption Price”). Within three Business Days following the occurrence of an Escrow Special Mandatory Redemption Event, the Company shall deliver a notice to the Trustee and the Escrow Agent of the occurrence thereof (an “Escrow Special Redemption Notice”). Within five Business Days after the Escrow Special Mandatory Redemption Event or as otherwise required by DTC’s procedures, the Company will redeem the Notes at the Escrow Special Mandatory Redemption Price pursuant to the procedures described in Section 3.07(b) (the date of such redemption, the “Escrow Special Mandatory Redemption Date”).

77

(b) If the Escrow Agent receives an Escrow Special Redemption Notice, the Escrow Agent will liquidate all Escrowed Funds then held by it not later than the last Business Day prior to the Escrow Special Mandatory Redemption Date. On the Business Day prior to the Escrow Special Mandatory Redemption Date, the Escrow Agent shall pay to the Trustee for payment to each Holder the Escrow Special Mandatory Redemption Price for such Holder’s Notes and, concurrently with the payment to such Holders, deliver the excess Escrowed Funds (if any), after payment of any fees and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) of the Escrow Agent and Trustee, to the Company.

(c) No provisions of the Escrow Agreement (including those relating to the Escrow Release) may be waived or modified in any manner materially adverse to the Holders of the Notes without the written consent of the Holders of a majority of the principal amount of the Notes outstanding; provided that no such amendment, waiver or modification shall reduce the Escrow Special Mandatory Redemption Price without the written consent of each affected Holder.

SECTION 3.08. Spin-Off Special Mandatory Redemption. In the event that the Spin-Off has not occurred within two Business Days of the Escrow Release Date (the “Spin-Off Special Mandatory Redemption Event”), the Company will be required to redeem the Notes (the “Spin-Off Special Mandatory Redemption”) at a purchase price in cash equal to 100% of the initial issue price of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest from the Issue Date, or from the most recent date to which interest has been paid, to, but not including the Spin-Off Special Mandatory Redemption Date (the “Spin-Off Special Mandatory Redemption Price”). Within three Business Days following the occurrence of the Spin-Off Special Mandatory Redemption Event, the Company shall redeem the Notes at the Escrow Special Mandatory Redemption Price (the date of such redemption, the “Spin-Off Special Mandatory Redemption Date”).

If the aggregate purchase price of Indebtedness tendered exceeds the amount of Applicable Proceeds, the Trustee will select the Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis but in round denominations, which, in the case of the Notes, will be denominations of $2,000 principal amount or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. Upon completion of each Asset Disposition Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero and, so long as all such Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to such offer are purchased by the Company in

104

compliance with this covenant, any excess of the offer amount over the amount applied to purchase such Notes (and such other Senior Indebtedness) pursuant to such offer may be applied by the Company for any purpose not prohibited by this Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture shall prevent the Company from making an Asset Disposition Offer earlier than required.

(d) The Company will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to this covenant. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with provisions of this covenant, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this covenant by virtue of its compliance with such securities laws or regulations.

(e) Pending the final application of any Net Available Cash, the holder of such Net Available Cash may apply such Net Available Cash temporarily to reduce Indebtedness outstanding under a revolving credit facility or otherwise invest such Net Available Cash in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture.

(f) The provisions of this Indenture relative to the Company’s obligation to make an offer to repurchase the Notes as a result of an Asset Disposition may be waived or modified with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes.

(g) To the extent that any portion of Net Available Cash payable in respect of the Notes is denominated in a currency other than Dollars, the amount thereof payable in respect of the Notes shall not exceed the net amount of funds in Dollars that is actually received by the Company upon converting such portion into Dollars.

(h) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this covenant, (i) to the extent that any of or all the Net Available Cash of any Asset Disposition by a Non-U.S. Subsidiary (a “Foreign Disposition”) is (x) prohibited or delayed by applicable local law, (y) restricted by applicable organizational documents or any agreement or (z) subject to other onerous organizational or administrative impediments from being repatriated to the United States, the portion of such Net Available Cash so affected will not be required to be applied in compliance with this covenant, and such amounts may be retained by the applicable Non-U.S. Subsidiary so long, but only so long, as the applicable local law documents or agreements will not permit repatriation to the United States (the Company hereby agreeing to use reasonable efforts (as determined in the Company’s reasonable business judgment) to otherwise cause the applicable Non-U.S. Subsidiary to, within one year following the date on which the respective payment would otherwise have been required, promptly take all actions reasonably required by the applicable local law, applicable organizational impediments or other impediment to permit such repatriation), and if within one year following the date on which the respective payment would otherwise have been required such repatriation of any of such affected Net Available Cash is permitted under the applicable local law, applicable organizational impediment or other impediment, such repatriated Net Available Cash will be promptly (and in any

105

event not later than five (5) Business Days after such repatriation could be made) applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof) (whether or not such repatriation actually occurs) in compliance with this covenant and (ii) to the extent that the Company has determined in good faith that repatriation of any of or all the Net Available Cash of any Foreign Disposition would have a material adverse tax consequence, the Net Available Cash, to the extent of the amount of such tax, will not be required to be applied in accordance with this covenant. The non-application of any prepayment amounts as a consequence of the foregoing provisions will not, for the avoidance of doubt, constitute a Default or an Event of Default.

SECTION 4.07. Limitation on Transactions with Affiliates. (a) The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction or series of transactions, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Company (an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of the greater of (x) $195.0 million and (y) 15% of Consolidated EBITDA of the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries for the most recently ended Test Period unless the terms of the Affiliate Transaction are not materially less favorable to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary than those that could have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person on an arm’s length basis (as determined in good faith by a Responsible Officer or the Board of Directors of the Company).

(b) The Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors will not cause or permit any of their respective Wholly Owned Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, any Subsidiary that is a Divided LLC) that is organized under the laws of any jurisdiction within the United States of America or Japan to Guarantee any Credit Facility Indebtedness or any other capital markets debt securities of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor, in each case other than any Excluded Subsidiaries, unless such Restricted Subsidiary is a Subsidiary Guarantor or within 15 Business Days of Guaranteeing such Indebtedness (1) executes and delivers to the Trustee a Guarantee Supplemental Indenture pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary will Guarantee payment of the Notes on the same terms and conditions as those set forth in this Indenture and applicable to the other Subsidiary Guarantors and (2) delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel (which may contain customary exceptions) that such Guarantee Supplemental Indenture complies with the requirements of this covenant in this Indenture and constitutes a valid, binding and enforceable obligation of such Restricted Subsidiary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 4.11(b) shall not be applicable prior to the Spin-Off Date (or, with respect to any Wholly Owned Subsidiary organized under the laws of Japan, the day immediately following the Spin-Off Date).

SECTION 4.12. Limitation on Transfer of Intellectual Property. (a) Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture or in any other Note Document to the contrary, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary Guarantor shall be permitted to transfer, or exclusively license or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Material Intellectual Property to any Unrestricted Subsidiary, in each case, other than (x) non-exclusive licenses, sublicenses or cross-licenses or other similar intercompany disclosures of intellectual property, intellectual property rights or other general intangibles or (y) in the ordinary course of business or consistent with past practice in support of the business operation of the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries and not in furtherance of any third-party financing substantially contemporaneously incurred and secured by such Material Intellectual Property so transferred, exclusively licensed or disposed of.

SECTION 4.13. Limitation on Liens. (a) The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, create, Incur or assume any Lien upon any property or assets of any kind (real or personal, tangible or intangible) of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, whether now owned or hereafter acquired (each, a “Subject Lien”) that secures obligations under any Indebtedness, unless (A) the Notes Obligations are equally and ratably secured with (or on a senior basis to, in the case such Subject Lien secures any subordinated Indebtedness) the obligations secured by such Subject Lien or (B) such Subject Lien is a Permitted Lien.

(b) Any such Lien thereby created in favor of the Notes or any Subsidiary Guarantee pursuant to Section 4.13(a) of this covenant will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of each Subject Lien that gave rise to the obligation to so secure the Notes Obligations.

(c) With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the incurrence of such Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness. The “Increased Amount” of any Indebtedness shall mean any increase in the amount of such Indebtedness in connection with any accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies or increases in the value of property securing Indebtedness.

SECTION 4.14. [Reserved].

SECTION 4.15. Termination of Covenants. Following the first day (the “Termination Date”) that: (a) the Notes have an Investment Grade Rating, and (b) no Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be subject to Sections 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.12 and 5.01(a)(iii), regardless of any subsequent changes in the ratings of the Notes.

SECTION 4.16. Financial Calculations for Limited Condition Transactions and Other Transactions. (a) When calculating the availability under any basket or ratio under this Indenture or determining the absence of a Default or Event of Default (or any type of Default or Event of Default) as a condition to the making of any

113

acquisition or other Permitted Investment, the consummation of which is not conditioned on the availability of, or on obtaining, third party financing (each, a “Limited Condition Transaction”) or incurrence of Indebtedness in connection therewith, the determination of whether the relevant condition is satisfied may be made, at the irrevocable election of the Company (such election, a “Limited Condition Transaction Election”), at the time of (and on the basis of the financial statements for the most recently ended fiscal period for which financial statements are available at the time of) either (x) the execution of the definitive agreement with respect to such Limited Condition Transaction or (y) the consummation of the Limited Condition Transaction, in each case, after giving effect to the relevant Limited Condition Transaction and any related transactions (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof), on a pro forma basis. If the Company makes such a Limited Condition Transaction Election, any subsequent calculation of any basket or ratio shall be calculated on an equivalent pro forma basis, with such pro forma adjustments as are appropriate and consistent with the pro forma adjustment provisions set forth in the definition of “pro forma basis” or “Consolidated EBITDA” unless the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction expires or is terminated without its consummation. Any Limited Condition Transaction Election shall be made pursuant to a written notice from the Company delivered to the Trustee at the time of the execution of the definitive agreements with respect to the Limited Condition Transaction; provided, however, that, to the extent the Company has not delivered such written notice to the Trustee by the time of execution of the definitive agreements with respect to such transaction, the relevant conditions required to be satisfied as a condition to consummating such transaction or incurring such Indebtedness will be tested at the time of consummation of such transaction and the related incurrence of Indebtedness. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Company has made a Limited Condition Transaction Election, any fluctuation or change (i) in any of the ratios or baskets and (ii) with respect to the applicable exchange rate utilized in calculating compliance with any dollar-based provision of this Indenture, from the date that the definitive agreement (or other relevant definitive documentation) for, announcement (public or otherwise) of, or notice, declaration of dividend or similar event with respect to, such Limited Condition Transaction, to the date of consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction will not be taken into account.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, with respect to any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Indenture under a restrictive covenant that does not require compliance with a financial ratio or test (any such amounts, the “Fixed Amounts”) substantially concurrently with any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Indenture in the same restrictive covenant that requires compliance with any such financial ratio or test (any such amounts, the “Incurrence Based Amounts”), it is understood and agreed that the Fixed Amounts (and any cash proceeds thereof) shall be disregarded in the calculation of the financial ratio or test applicable to the Incurrence Based Amounts in connection with such substantially concurrent incurrence.

114

SECTION 4.17. Escrow Agreement. (a) Concurrently with the closing of the offering of the Notes on the Issue Date, the Company will enter into the Escrow Agreement with the Trustee and the Escrow Agent, pursuant to which (i) the Company will deposit (or cause to be deposited) or instruct the Initial Purchasers (as defined in Appendix A) to deposit with the Escrow Agent in one or more segregated escrow accounts (collectively, the “Escrow Account”) an amount in cash or Cash Equivalents equal to the gross proceeds of the offering of the Notes sold on the Issue Date and (ii) the Company will deposit or cause to be deposited into the Escrow Account an amount of cash that would be sufficient to fund all interest due on the Notes if an Escrow Special Mandatory Redemption were to occur on the Outside Date. The initial funds deposited in the Escrow Account, and all other funds, securities, interest, dividends, distributions, earnings and other property and payments credited to the Escrow Account in connection with the Notes (less any property and/or funds paid in accordance with the Escrow Agreement) are referred to, collectively, as the “Escrowed Funds.” Upon execution and delivery, and pursuant to the terms and conditions, of the Escrow Agreement, the Company will grant the Trustee, for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders, a security interest (subject to the liens permitted under the Escrow Agreement) in the Escrow Account and the Escrowed Funds to secure the Notes Obligations, including the Escrow Special Mandatory Redemption; provided, however, that such Lien and security interest shall be automatically extinguished on and terminate at the time of the Escrow Release.

(b) The Company may direct the Escrow Agent, in writing, to invest the Escrowed Funds in cash or Cash Equivalents, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement. In the absence of written direction from the Company as to a particular investment to be made, the Escrowed Funds will remain uninvested. Neither the Escrow Agent nor Trustee will be responsible for making any such investment selection.

(c) The Company will only be entitled to direct the Escrow Agent to release the Escrowed Funds in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement. Pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, the Escrow Agent will release the Escrowed Funds (the “Escrow Release”) to, or at the order of, the Company (the date of such release being referred to as the “Escrow Release Date”) upon receipt by each of the Escrow Agent and the Trustee of an Officer’s Certificate from the Company addressed to the Escrow Agent and the Trustee on or prior to the Outside Date certifying the satisfaction of the conditions to the release of Escrowed Funds set forth in the Escrow Agreement (the “Escrow Release Conditions”).

(d) Upon the occurrence of the Escrow Release, the Escrow Account shall be reduced to zero and the Escrowed Funds and interest accrued thereon from the date of deposit shall be paid out in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement. With two Business Days, the Company shall cause the Spin-Off to occur.

(e) Each Holder, by its acceptance of the Notes, shall be deemed to authorize and direct the Trustee to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Escrow Agreement.

limited liability company, then, for so long as the Successor Company is not a corporation, there shall be a Restricted Subsidiary of such Person which shall be a corporation organized in the jurisdictions permitted by this clause (i) and a co-obligor of the Notes) and (2) expressly assume all the obligations of the Company under the Notes and this Indenture pursuant to a supplemental indenture or other documents or instruments executed and delivered to, and in form satisfactory to, the Trustee;

(ii) immediately after giving pro forma effect to such transaction (and treating any Indebtedness which becomes an obligation of the Successor Company or any Subsidiary as a result of such transaction as having been Incurred by such Successor Company or such Subsidiary at the time of such transaction), no Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

(iii) immediately after giving pro forma effect to such transaction, either (A) the Successor Company would be able to Incur an additional $1.00 of Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.03(a) or (B) the Secured Net Leverage Ratio for the Successor Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries would not be higher than such ratio for the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries immediately prior to such transaction; and

(iv) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger or transfer and such supplemental indenture (if any) comply with this Indenture;

provided, however, that clause (a) shall not be applicable to (A) a Restricted Subsidiary consolidating with, merging into or transferring all or part of its properties and assets to the Company (so long as no Capital Stock of the Company is distributed to any Person) or (B) the Company merging with an Affiliate of the Company solely for the purpose and with the sole effect of reincorporating the Company in another jurisdiction or converting into a corporation or limited liability company (provided that, if the Company converts to a limited liability company, then, for so long as the Company is not a corporation, there shall be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company which shall be a corporation organized in the jurisdictions permitted by clause (a)(i) above and a co-obligor of the Notes).

For purposes of this Section 5.01, the sale, lease, conveyance, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of one or more Subsidiaries of the Company, which properties and assets, if held by the Company instead of such Subsidiaries, would constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company on a consolidated basis, shall be deemed to be the transfer of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company.

The Successor Company shall be the successor to the Company and shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under this Indenture and the Notes, and the predecessor Company, except in the case of a lease, shall be released from the obligation to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes and will automatically be released and discharged from its obligations under this Indenture and the Notes.

117

For all purposes of this Indenture, Subsidiaries of any Successor Company shall, upon any transaction subject to this Section 5.01, become Restricted Subsidiaries or Unrestricted Subsidiaries as provided pursuant to this Indenture, and all Indebtedness and Liens of the Successor Company and its Subsidiaries that were not Indebtedness or Liens on property or assets, as the case may be, of the Company and its Subsidiaries immediately prior to such transaction shall be deemed to have been Incurred upon such transaction.

(b) The Company shall not permit any Subsidiary Guarantor to consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, transfer or lease, in one transaction or a series of transactions, all or substantially all of its assets to any Person unless:

(i) except in the case of a Subsidiary Guarantor (x) that has been disposed of in its entirety to another Person (other than to the Company or an Affiliate of the Company), whether through a merger, consolidation or sale of Capital Stock or assets or (y) that, as a result of the disposition of all or a portion of its Capital Stock, ceases to be a Subsidiary, the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (if not such Subsidiary) shall be a Person organized and existing under the laws of the jurisdiction under which such Subsidiary was organized or under the laws of the United States of America, or any State thereof or the District of Columbia (such Subsidiary Guarantor or such Person, as the case may be, being herein called the “Successor Guarantor”), and such Person shall expressly assume all the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under this Indenture and such Subsidiary Guarantor’s related Guarantee pursuant to a supplemental indenture or other documents or instruments in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee;

(ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction or transactions on a pro forma basis (and treating any Indebtedness which becomes an obligation of the resulting, surviving or transferee Person as a result of such transaction as having been issued by such Person at the time of such transaction), no Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and

(iii) the Company delivers to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger or transfer and such Guarantee Supplemental Indenture, if any, complies with this Indenture;

provided, however, that Section 5.01(b) will not be applicable to a Subsidiary Guarantor merging with an Affiliate of the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor solely for the purpose and with the sole effect of reincorporating the Subsidiary Guarantor in another jurisdiction or converting into a corporation or limited liability company; provided further, however, that this Section 5.01 shall not be applicable to a Restricted Subsidiary consolidating with, merging into or transferring all or part of its properties and assets to the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor.

118

The Successor Guarantor will succeed to, and be substituted for, such Subsidiary Guarantor under this Indenture and such Subsidiary Guarantor’s Guarantee and such Guarantor will automatically be released and discharged from its obligations under this Indenture and such Subsidiary Guarantor’s Guarantee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Subsidiary Guarantor may (i) merge, consolidate or amalgamate with or into or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or part of its properties or assets to another Subsidiary Guarantor or the Company, (ii) merge, consolidate or amalgamate with or into, the Company or an Affiliate of the Company solely for the purpose of reincorporating or reorganizing such Subsidiary Guarantor in the United States, any state or territory thereof or the District of Columbia, (iii) convert into a corporation, partnership, limited partnership, limited liability company, trust or other entity organized or existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of organization of such Guarantor or a jurisdiction in the United States, any state or territory thereof or the District of Columbia or (iv) liquidate or dissolve or change its legal form if the Board or the senior management of the Company determines in good faith that such action is in the best interests of the Company and is not materially disadvantageous to the Holders, in each case, without regard to the requirements set forth in the preceding paragraph.

For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 5.01 shall not prohibit, restrict or limit the Company’s ability to consummate the Spin-Off or any related Transactions.

ARTICLE 6

(j) any judgment or decree (but excluding settlements but not excluding judgements or decrees to enforce settlements) for the payment of money in excess of the Threshold Amount (other than any such judgment covered by insurance (other than under a self-insurance program) to the extent a claim therefor has been made in writing and liability therefore has not been denied by the insurer) is entered against the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any Significant Subsidiary, which judgment remains outstanding for a period of 60 consecutive days following the entry of such judgment or decree and is not discharged, waived or the execution thereof stayed;

(m) the failure by the Company to pay or cause to be paid the Spin-Off Special Mandatory Redemption Price on the Spin-Off Special Mandatory Redemption Date, if any, pursuant to Section 3.08.

The foregoing shall constitute Events of Default whatever the reason for any such Event of Default and whether it is voluntary or involuntary or is effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body.

The term “Bankruptcy Law” means Title 11, United States Code, or any similar Federal or state law for the relief of debtors. The term “Custodian” means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator, custodian or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law.

A Default under Sections 6.01(d), 6.01(e) or 6.01(f) shall not constitute an Event of Default until the Trustee or the Holders of at least 30% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes notify the Company of the Default (simultaneously sending a copy of such notice to the Trustee, in the case of a notice sent by Holders) and the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantor, as applicable, does not cure such Default within the time specified after receipt of such notice; provided that a notice of Default may not be given with respect to any action taken, and reported publicly or to Holders, more than two years prior to such notice of Default. Such notice must be in writing, specify the Default, demand that it be remedied and state that such notice is a “Notice of Default.” Any such notice of Default, notice of acceleration or instruction delivered to the Trustee to provide a notice of Default, notice of acceleration or take any other action under this paragraph (a “Special Noteholder Direction”) provided by any one or more Holders (each a “Directing Holder”) must be accompanied by a written representation from each such Holder delivered to the Company, the Trustee that such Holder is not (or, in the case such Holder is the Depositary or its nominee, that such Holder is being instructed solely by beneficial owners that are not) Net Short (a “Position Representation”), which representation, in the case of a Special Noteholder Direction relating to the delivery of a notice of Default shall be deemed repeated at all times until the resulting Event of Default is cured or otherwise ceases to exist or the Notes are accelerated. In addition, each Directing Holder shall be deemed to, at the time of providing a Special Noteholder Direction, covenant to provide

121

the Company with such other information as the Company may reasonably request from time to time in order to verify the accuracy of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Position Representation within five Business Days of request therefor (a “Verification Covenant”). In any case in which the Holder is the Depositary or its nominee, any Position Representation or Verification Covenant required hereunder shall be provided by the beneficial owner of the Notes in lieu of the Depositary or its nominee, and the Depositary shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such Position Representation and Verification Covenant in delivering its direction to the Trustee without any duty of further verification or inquiry. The Trustee shall not be liable and shall be fully protected for any action that the Trustee takes or fails to take in accordance with this paragraph and the next succeeding paragraph, or arising out of or in connection with following instructions of or taking actions in accordance with a Special Noteholder Direction. For the avoidance of doubt, the requirements of this paragraph and the next succeeding paragraph shall only apply to Special Noteholder Directions and do not apply to any other directions given by Holders to the Trustee under this Indenture. The Trustee shall not have any liability whatsoever for acting in accordance with the requirements of this paragraph and the next succeeding paragraph and may conclusively rely on such Position Representation without any duty of further verification or inquiry. The Trustee shall not have any duty to inquire as to or investigate the accuracy or authenticity of any Position Representation or determine whether it complies with the provisions of this Indenture, enforce compliance with any Verification Covenant, to monitor, investigate, verify or otherwise determine if a holder has a net short position, inquire if the Company will seek action to determine if a Directing Holder has breached its Position Representation or monitor any court proceedings undertaken in connection therewith, verify any statements in any Officer’s Certificate delivered to it, or otherwise make calculations, investigations or determinations with respect to Derivative Instruments, Net Shorts, Long Derivative Instruments, Short Derivative Instruments or otherwise and shall have no liability for ceasing to take any action or staying any remedy, or otherwise failing to act in accordance with a Special Noteholder Direction. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the Notes or any other document, the provisions of this paragraph and the next succeeding paragraph will apply and survive with respect to each beneficial owner notwithstanding that any such person may have ceased to be a beneficial owner, this Indenture may have been terminated, the Notes may have been redeemed in full or the Trustee may have resigned or been removed.

If, following the delivery of a Special Noteholder Direction, but prior to acceleration of the Notes, the Company determines in good faith that there is a reasonable basis to believe a Directing Holder was, at any relevant time, in breach of its Position Representation and provides to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate certifying that the Company has filed papers with a court of competent jurisdiction seeking a determination that such Directing Holder was, at such time, in breach of its Position Representation, and seeking to invalidate any Event of Default that resulted from the applicable Special Noteholder Direction, the cure period with respect to such Event of Default shall be automatically stayed pending a final and non-appealable determination of a court of competent jurisdiction on such matter. If, following the delivery of a Special Noteholder Direction and the aforementioned Officer’s Certificate, but prior to acceleration of the Notes, the Company provides to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that a

122

Directing Holder failed to satisfy its Verification Covenant, the cure period with respect to any Event of Default that resulted from the applicable Special Noteholder Direction shall be automatically stayed pending satisfaction of such Verification Covenant. Any breach of the Position Representation shall result in such Holder’s participation in such Special Noteholder Direction being disregarded; and, if, without the participation of such Holder, the percentage of Notes held by the remaining Holders that provided such Special Noteholder Direction would have been insufficient to validly provide such Special Noteholder Direction, such Special Noteholder Direction shall be void ab initio (other than any indemnity and/or security such Directing Holder may have offered to the Trustee), with the effect that such Event of Default shall be deemed never to have occurred, any related acceleration rescinded and the Trustee shall be deemed not to have received such Special Noteholder Direction or any notice of Default or Event of Default.

Each Holder by accepting any Note acknowledges and agrees that the Trustee (nor any agent) shall be liable to any person for acting or refraining to act in accordance with (i) the foregoing provisions, (ii) any Special Noteholder Direction, (iii) any Officer’s Certificate delivered to it in connection therewith or (iv) its duties under this Indenture, as the Trustee may determine in its sole discretion as a result of the foregoing provisions

Additionally, a default under Sections 6.01(e) or 6.01(f) for the failure to deliver any report within the time periods prescribed in Section 4.02 or to deliver any notice or certificate required by this Indenture shall be deemed to be cured upon the subsequent delivery of any such report, notice or certificate, even though such delivery is not within the prescribed period specified.

The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days after obtaining knowledge of the occurrence thereof, written notice in the form of an Officer’s Certificate of any event which is, or with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default and its status.

SECTION 6.02. Acceleration. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(h) or 6.01(i) with respect to the Company) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee by written notice to the Company, or the Holders of at least 30% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may declare the principal of and accrued but unpaid interest on all the Notes to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal and interest shall be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(h) or 6.01(i) with respect to the Company occurs, the principal of and interest on all the Notes shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes by written notice to the Trustee may rescind any such acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default have been cured or waived except nonpayment of principal or interest that has become due solely because of acceleration. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

123

SECTION 6.03. Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal of or interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture.

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder 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.

SECTION 6.04. Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes by written notice to the Trustee may waive an existing Default and its consequences except (a) a Default in the payment of the principal of or interest on a Note, (b) a Default arising from the failure to redeem or purchase any Note when required pursuant to the terms of this Indenture or (c) a Default in respect of a provision that under Section 9.02 cannot be amended without the consent of each Holder affected. When a Default is waived, it is deemed cured, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any consequent right.

SECTION 6.05. Control by Majority. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for 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 to Section 7.01, that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders of the Notes (it being understood that the Trustee shall have no duty or obligation to determinate if such direction is unduly prejudicial to the rights of the 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. Prior to taking any action hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification and/or security satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses, fees, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) caused by taking or not taking such action.

SECTION 6.06. Limitation on Suits. (a) No Holder may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless:

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

(ii) Holders of at least 30% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes have made a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

(iii) such Holders have offered the Trustee security and/or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense;

124

(iv) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt thereof and the offer of security and/or indemnity; and

(v) Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within 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. In the event that the Definitive Notes are not issued to any beneficial owner promptly after the Registrar has received a request from the Holder of a Global Note to issue such Definitive Notes to such beneficial owner of its nominee, the Company expressly agrees and acknowledges, with respect to the right of any Holder to pursue a remedy pursuant to this Indenture, the right of such beneficial holder of Notes to pursue such remedy with respect to the portion of the Global Note that represents such beneficial Holder’s Notes as if such Definitive Notes had been issued.

SECTION 6.07. Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of and interest on the Notes held by such Holder, on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for in the Notes, 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 6.08. Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a) or 6.01(b) 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 other obligor on the Notes for the whole amount then due and owing (together with interest on overdue principal and (to the extent lawful) on any unpaid interest at the rate provided for in the Notes) and the amounts provided for in Section 7.06.

SECTION 6.09. 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 a Subsidiary Guarantor, their creditors or their property 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 reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.06.

125

SECTION 6.10. Priorities. If the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article 6, it shall pay out the money or property in the following order:

FIRST: to the Trustee for amounts due under this Indenture, including, without limitation, under Section 7.06;

SECOND: to Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal and interest, ratably, and Applicable Premium (if any), ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal and interest and Applicable Premium (if any), respectively; and

THIRD: to the Company or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct, including a Subsidiary Guarantor, if applicable.

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 Company shall deliver to each Holder and the Trustee 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, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.07 or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes.

SECTION 6.12. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary Guarantor (to the extent it may lawfully do so) shall at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

SECTION 6.13. Completion of Transactions Not a Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Indenture, no provision of this Indenture shall prevent the completion of any of the Transactions, nor shall the Transactions give rise to any Default or Event of Default.

126

SECTION 6.14. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceedings, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding has been instituted.

SECTION 6.15. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes in Section 2.07, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

SECTION 6.16. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

ARTICLE 7

Trustee

SECTION 7.01. 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 Person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such Person’s 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

127

(c) The Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own grossly negligent action, its own grossly negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable decision), except that :

(ii) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer;

(iii) 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 6.05; and

(iv) in no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, punitive, indirect, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

(d) Every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to Sections 7.01(a), 7.01(b) and 7.01(c).

(e) The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Company.

(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 or other liability or expense in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers hereunder, if it shall have any grounds to believe in good faith that repayment of such funds or expense or adequate indemnity and/or security against such risks or liability is not assured to it.

(h) Every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 7.01.

SECTION 7.02. Rights of Trustee. (a) The Trustee may conclusively 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 Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on the Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel.

128

(c) The Trustee may request that the Company deliver an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture, which Officer’s Certificate may be signed by any person authorized to sign an Officer’s Certificate, including any person specified as so authorized in such certificate previously delivered and not superseded.

(d) The Trustee may act through agents and shall not be responsible for the acts or omissions of any agent appointed with due care.

(e) 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; provided, however, that the Trustee’s conduct does not constitute willful misconduct or gross negligence.

(g) The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, direction, order, approval, bond, debenture, note or other paper or document, but the Trustee may (but shall not be obligated to) make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost of the Company and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation. The Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility for (i) performing any calculation hereunder or in connection with the Notes or (ii) any calculation hereunder or in connection with the Notes, or any information used in connection with any such calculation.

129

(k) The Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders unless such Holders have offered, and if requested, provided to the Trustee indemnity and/or security satisfactory to the Trustee against the losses, liabilities and expenses that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.

(l) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default other than an Event of Default under Section 6.01(a) or Section 6.01(b) unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a Default or Event of Defaults is received by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee and such notice references the Notes, the Company, and this Indenture.

SECTION 7.03. Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee. Any Paying Agent, Registrar co-registrar or co-paying agent may do the same with like rights.

SECTION 7.04. Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture, any Subsidiary Guarantee or the Notes, it shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the Notes, and it shall not be responsible for any statement of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor in this Indenture or in any document issued in connection with the sale of the Notes or in the Notes other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication. The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default under Sections 6.01(c), 6.01(d), 6.01(e), 6.01(f), 6.01(g), 6.01(h), 6.01(i), 6.01(j) or 6.01(k) or of the identity of any Significant Subsidiary unless either (a) a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received notice thereof at its Corporate Trust Office in accordance with Section 11.01 hereof from the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any Holder and such notice references the Company, the Notes and this Indenture.

SECTION 7.05. Notice of Defaults. If a Responsible Officer of the Trustee obtains actual knowledge in accordance with the terms of this Indenture or has received written notice of a Default or Event of Default from the Company or any Holder in accordance with the terms hereof, the Trustee shall deliver electronically, in accordance with DTC procedures in the case of Global Notes, or mail to each Holder, with a copy to the Company, notice of such Default or Event of Default within 30 days after it obtains actual knowledge thereof or receipt of such written notice. Except in the case of a Default in the payment of principal of or interest on any Note, the Trustee may but shall not be obligated to withhold the notice if and so long as it determines that withholding the notice is not opposed to the interests of the Holders.

SECTION 7.06. Compensation and Indemnity. The Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor, jointly and severally, shall pay to the Trustee from time to time compensation for its services as agreed by the Company and the Trustee. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express

130

trust. The Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor, jointly and severally, shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts. The Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the Trustee and its officers, directors, employees and agents (each, a “Trustee indemnified party”) for and from, and hold them harmless against, any and all loss, liability or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) paid or incurred by or in connection with the administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors (including this Section 7.06). The Trustee shall notify the Company of any claim for which it may seek indemnity promptly upon obtaining actual knowledge thereof; provided, however, that any failure so to notify the Company shall not relieve the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor of its indemnity obligations hereunder. The Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee indemnified party shall provide reasonable cooperation at the Company’s expense in the defense. Such indemnified parties may have separate counsel and the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, as applicable shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel unless (i) in the sole judgment of the Trustee, there is a conflict of interest between the Company and the relevant indemnified party in connection with such defense, (ii) the Company has not retained counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee or (iii) there are defenses available to the relevant indemnified party that may not be asserted by the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor. Any settlement which affects an indemnified party may not be entered into without the consent of the Trustee, unless the Trustee is given a full and unconditional release from liability with respect to the claims covered thereby and such settlement does not include a statement or admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of the Trustee. The Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by an indemnified party through such party’s own willful misconduct or gross negligence (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable decision).

To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section 7.06, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee other than money or property held in trust to pay principal of and interest on particular Notes.

The payment obligations of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors pursuant to this Section 7.06 shall survive the satisfaction or discharge of this Indenture, any rejection or termination of this Indenture under any bankruptcy law or the resignation or removal of the Trustee. Without prejudice to any other rights available to the Trustee under applicable law, when the Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 6.01(h) or, with respect to the Company, the expenses and compensation for services (including the fees and expenses of counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under the Bankruptcy Law.

131

SECTION 7.07. Replacement of Trustee. (a) The Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Company. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may remove the Trustee by written notice to the Trustee and may appoint a successor Trustee. The Company shall remove the Trustee if:

(i) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10;

(ii) the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;

(iii) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or

(iv) the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

(b) If the Trustee resigns, is removed by the Company or by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes and such Holders do not reasonably promptly appoint a successor Trustee, or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason (the Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Trustee), the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee.

(c) A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers, privileges, protections, indemnities, immunities and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall deliver a notice of its succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, provided all sums owing to the Trustee have been paid, subject to the lien provided for in Section 7.06. Further, the retiring or resigning Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility for any action or inaction of a successor Trustee.

(d) If a successor ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee or the Holders of 10% in principal amount of the Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

(e) Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.07, the obligations of the Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor under Section 7.06 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee and the successor Trustee.

SECTION 7.08. Successor Trustee by ▇▇▇▇▇▇. If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee.

132

In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture and any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Notes so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have.

SECTION 7.09. Escrow Agreement. The Trustee shall agree to the appointment of the Escrow Agent and shall enter into the Escrow Agreement. The Trustee, in its capacity as such, is not responsible for the contents or sufficiency of the Escrow Agreement; and in entering into the Escrow Agreement, and with respect to all matters arising under the Escrow Agreement, the Trustee, in its capacity as such, shall have the rights, protections, privileges, immunities and indemnities granted to it under this Indenture. Neither the Trustee nor any Holder (whether acting directly or by direction or demand to the Trustee) shall be entitled or permitted to give any direction to, or make any demand upon, the Escrow Agent that would be contrary to, or in conflict with Section 2 of the Escrow Agreement.

SECTION 7.10. Eligibility; Disqualification. There will at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $150.0 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition.

ARTICLE 8

Discharge of Indenture; Defeasance

SECTION 8.01. Discharge of Liability on Notes; Defeasance. (a) When (i) all outstanding Notes (other than Notes replaced or paid pursuant to Section 2.07) have been cancelled or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation or (ii) all outstanding Notes have become due and payable, whether at maturity or on a redemption date as a result of the delivery of a notice of redemption pursuant to Article 3 hereof, and, in the case of clause (ii), the Company irrevocably deposits with the Trustee funds sufficient to pay at maturity or upon redemption of all outstanding Notes, including interest thereon to maturity or such redemption date (other than Notes replaced or paid pursuant to Section 2.07) and Applicable Premium, if any, and if in either case the Company pays all other sums payable under this Indenture, then this Indenture shall, subject to Section 8.01(c), cease to be of further effect and the Subsidiary Guarantees will be irrevocably released; provided that upon any redemption that requires the payment of the Applicable Premium, the amount deposited shall be sufficient for purposes of this Section 8.01 to the extent that an amount is deposited with the Trustee equal to the Applicable Premium calculated as of the date of the notice of redemption, with any deficit on the date of redemption (any such amount, the “Applicable Premium Deficit”) only required to be deposited with the Trustee on or prior to the date of redemption (it being understood that any defeasance shall be subject to the condition subsequent that

133

such deficit is in fact paid). Any Applicable Premium Deficit shall be set forth in an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee simultaneously with the deposit of such Applicable Premium Deficit that confirms that such Applicable Premium Deficit shall be applied toward such redemption. The Trustee shall acknowledge satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture on demand of the Company accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel and at the cost and expense of the Company.

(b) Subject to Sections 8.01(c) and 8.02, the Company at any time may terminate (i) all of its obligations under the Notes and this Indenture (“legal defeasance option”) or (ii) its obligations under Sections 4.02, 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13 and 4.14 and the operation of Sections 6.01(d), 6.01(e), 6.01(g), 6.01(h), 6.01(i) and 6.01(j) (but, in the case of Sections 6.01(h) and 6.01(i), with respect only to Significant Subsidiaries and the Subsidiary Guarantors) and the limitations contained in Section 5.01(a)(iii) (“covenant defeasance option”).

If the Company exercises its legal defeasance option, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default with respect thereto. If the Company exercises its covenant defeasance option, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(d), 6.01(e), 6.01(f), 6.01(g), 6.01(h) (with respect only to Significant Subsidiaries and Subsidiary Guarantors), 6.01(i)or because of the failure of the Company to comply with Section 5.01(a)(iii). If the Company exercises its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option, each Subsidiary Guarantor shall be released from all of its obligations with respect to its Subsidiary Guarantee and this Indenture.

Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein and upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of those obligations that the Company terminates.

SECTION 8.02. Conditions to Defeasance. (a) The Company may exercise its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option only if:

(i) the Company irrevocably deposits in trust with the Trustee money in an amount sufficient or U.S. Government Obligations, the principal of and interest on which shall be sufficient, or a combination thereof sufficient, to pay the principal of, and premium (if any) and interest on the Notes when due at maturity or redemption, as the case may be, including interest thereon to maturity or such redemption date; provided that upon any redemption that requires the payment of the Applicable Premium, the amount deposited shall be sufficient for purposes of this Section 8.02 to the extent that an amount is deposited with the Trustee equal to the Applicable Premium calculated as of the date of the notice of redemption, with any Applicable Premium Deficit only required to be deposited

134

with the Trustee on or prior to the date of redemption (it being understood that any defeasance shall be subject to the condition subsequent that such deficit is in fact paid). Any Applicable Premium Deficit shall be set forth in an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee simultaneously with the deposit of such Applicable Premium Deficit that confirms that such Applicable Premium Deficit shall be applied toward such redemption;

(ii) the Company delivers to the Trustee a certificate from a nationally recognized firm of independent accountants expressing their opinion that the payments of principal and interest when due and without reinvestment on the deposited U.S. Government Obligations plus any deposited money without investment shall provide cash at such times and in such amounts as shall be sufficient to pay principal, premium, if any, and interest when due on all the Notes to maturity or redemption, as the case may be;

(iii) 91 days pass after the deposit is made and during the 91-day period no Default specified in Section 6.01(h) or 6.01(i) with respect to the Company occurs which is continuing at the end of the period;

(iv) the deposit does not constitute a default under any other agreement binding on the Company and is not prohibited by Article 10;

(v) in the case of the legal defeasance option, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (B) since the date of this Indenture there has been a change in the applicable U.S. Federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders shall not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. Federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and legal defeasance and shall be subject to U.S. Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and legal defeasance had not occurred;

(vi) in the case of the covenant defeasance option, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders shall not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. Federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and covenant defeasance and shall be subject to U.S. Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and covenant defeasance had not occurred; and

(vii) the Company delivers to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to the defeasance and discharge of the Notes as contemplated by this Article 8 have been complied with.

135

(b) Before or after a deposit, the Company may make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the redemption of Notes at a future date in accordance with Article 3.

SECTION 8.04. Repayment to Company. The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall promptly turn over to the Company upon written request any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in this Article which, in the written opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants delivered to the Trustee (which delivery shall only be required if U.S. Government Obligations have been so deposited), are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent discharge or defeasance in accordance with this Article.

Subject to any applicable abandoned property law, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Company upon written request any money held by them for the payment of principal and interest that remains unclaimed for two years, and, thereafter, Holders entitled to the money must look to the Company for payment as general creditors, and the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall have no further liability with respect to such monies.

SECTION 8.05. Indemnity for Government Obligations. The Company shall pay and shall indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against deposited U.S. Government Obligations or the principal and interest received on such U.S. Government Obligations.

SECTION 8.06. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article 8 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company’s and each Subsidiary Guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture, each Guarantee and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article 8 until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article 8; provided, however, that, if the Company has made any payment of principal of or interest on, any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

136

(b) It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, no amendment, restatement, supplement, modification or waiver of any provision of this Indenture nor consent to any departure by any party thereto shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights, duties, obligations, privileges, protections, exculpations, immunities, or indemnities of the Trustee (as determined by the Trustee in its sole discretion) thereunder, unless in writing executed by the Trustee, such execution to be given or withheld in the Trustee’s sole discretion.

(d) After an amendment under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Company shall deliver to Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment. The failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section 9.02.

SECTION 9.03. Revocation and Effect of Consents and Waivers. (a) A consent to an amendment or a waiver by a Holder of a Note shall bind the Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Note or portion of the Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent or waiver is not made on the Note.

139

amendment or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder. An amendment or waiver becomes effective upon the (i) receipt by the Company or the Trustee of the requisite number of consents, (ii) satisfaction of conditions to effectiveness as set forth in this Indenture and any indenture supplemental hereto containing such amendment or waiver and (iii) execution of such amendment or waiver (or Guarantee Supplemental Indenture) by the Company and the Trustee.

No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 120 days after such record date.

SECTION 9.04. Notation on or Exchange of Notes. If an amendment changes the terms of a Note, the Trustee may require the Holder to deliver it to the Trustee.

Alternatively, if the Company or the Trustee so determines, the Company in exchange for the Note shall execute a new Note that reflects the changed terms, and upon receipt of a Company Order, the Trustee shall authenticate such new Note. Failure to make the appropriate notation or to issue a new Note shall not affect the validity of such amendment.

SECTION 9.05. Trustee to Sign Amendments. The Trustee shall not be obligated to sign any amendment pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment affects the rights, duties, liabilities, privileges, protections, indemnities or immunities of the Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may but shall not be obligated to sign it. In signing any amendment hereto the Trustee shall be entitled to receive indemnity and/or security satisfactory to it and to receive, and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that (i) such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that all conditions precedent in this Indenture relating to the execution and delivery of such amendment have been complied with and (ii) such amendment (other than any amendment substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto solely to add one or more Subsidiary Guarantors) is the valid and binding obligation of the Company and any Subsidiary Guarantor enforceable against each in accordance with its terms.

SECTION 9.06. Payment for Consent. Neither the Company nor any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company may, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration, whether by way of interest, fee or otherwise, to any Holder for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid to all Holders that so consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement.

ARTICLE 10

Subsidiary Guarantees

SECTION 10.01. Subsidiary Guarantees. (a) Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby jointly and severally irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, to each Holder and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns (i) the full and punctual payment when due, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, of all obligations of the Company under this Indenture (including obligations to the Trustee) and the Notes, whether for payment of principal of or interest on in respect of the Notes and all other monetary obligations of the Company under this Indenture and the Notes and (ii) the full and punctual performance within applicable grace periods of all other obligations of the Company whether for fees, expenses, indemnification or otherwise under this Indenture and the Notes (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from each such Subsidiary Guarantor, and that each such Subsidiary Guarantor shall remain bound under this Article 10 notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Guaranteed Obligation.

(b) Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives presentation to, demand of payment from and protest to the Company of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives notice of any default under the Notes or the Guaranteed Obligations.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor herein shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Subsidiary Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Subsidiary Guarantor as a matter of law or equity.

(f) Subject to Section 10.06, each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect until payment in full of all the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of or interest on any Guaranteed Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder or the Trustee upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company or otherwise.

(g) In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder or the Trustee has at law or in equity against any Subsidiary Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Company to pay the principal of or interest on any Guaranteed Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, or to perform or comply with any other Guaranteed Obligation, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby promises to and shall, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Holders or the Trustee an amount equal to the sum of (i) the unpaid principal amount of such Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations (but only to the extent not prohibited by law) and (iii) all other monetary obligations of the Company to the Holders and the Trustee.

(h) Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations.

142

(i) Each Subsidiary Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustee or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section 10.01.

SECTION 10.02. Limitation on Liability. (a) Any term or provision of this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum aggregate amount of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereunder by any Subsidiary Guarantor shall not exceed the maximum amount that can be hereby guaranteed without rendering this Indenture, as it relates to such Subsidiary Guarantor, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

SECTION 10.03. Successors and Assigns. This Article 10 shall be binding upon each Subsidiary Guarantor and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Trustee and the Holders and, in the event of any transfer or assignment of rights by any Holder or the Trustee, the rights and privileges conferred upon that party in this Indenture and in the Notes shall automatically extend to and be vested in such transferee or assignee, all subject to the terms and conditions of this Indenture.

SECTION 10.04. No Waiver. Neither a failure nor a delay on the part of either the Trustee or the Holders in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Article 10 shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege. The rights, remedies and benefits of the Trustee and the Holders herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits which either may have under this Article 10 at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.

SECTION 10.05. Modification. No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Article 10, nor the consent to any departure by any Subsidiary Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Trustee, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on any Subsidiary Guarantor in any case shall entitle such Subsidiary Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.

143

SECTION 10.06. Release of Subsidiary Guarantor. A Subsidiary Guarantor shall be automatically and irrevocably released from its obligations under this Article 10 (other than any obligation that may have arisen under Section 10.07) upon:

(b) the release of such Subsidiary Guarantor from its guarantee of Indebtedness under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities (other than a discharge or release by or as a result of payment in full under such guarantee after the occurrence of a payment default or acceleration thereunder (it being understood that a release subject to a contingent reinstatement is still a release)), so long as such Subsidiary Guarantor would not then otherwise be required to guarantee the Notes pursuant to Section 4.11;

(c) the sale or other disposition of such Subsidiary Guarantor (including by way of merger or consolidation, the sale of its Capital Stock or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets) to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, so long as the sale or other disposition does not violate Section 4.06 or Section 5.01;

(d) the release or discharge of the Indebtedness that would have required such Subsidiary Guarantor to enter into a Guarantee Supplemental Indenture pursuant to Section 4.11, other than a release or discharge by or as a result of the payment of such Indebtedness; or

(e) the Company exercising its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option or if the Company’s obligations under this Indenture are discharged in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.

At the written request of the Company and the Trustee shall execute and deliver an appropriate instrument evidencing such release (in the form provided by the Company).

SECTION 10.07. Execution of Guarantee Supplemental Indenture for Future Subsidiary Guarantors.

144

SECTION 10.08. Non-Impairment. The failure to endorse a Subsidiary Guarantee on any Note shall not affect or impair the validity thereof.
