The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Exchange Offer Registration Statement to become effective under the Act not later than 180 days after the Closing Date; provided, however, that the Company shall have the right to defer the filing of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement (or suspend sales under the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or defer the updating of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and suspend sales thereunder) for a period of not more than sixty (60) consecutive days (and, in the aggregate, not more than ninety (90) days) per any one calendar year period, if it determines that it would be materially detrimental to the Company to file such Exchange Offer Registration Statement or continue sales under such Exchange Offer Registration Statement and concludes, as a result, that it is in the Company’s best interests and the best interests of its stockholders to defer the filing of such Exchange Offer Registration Statement or suspend such sales at such time (collectively referred to as the “Exchange Offer Registration Statement Deferral and Suspension Periods”).

(b) Upon the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, the Company shall promptly commence the Registered Exchange Offer.

(i) mail to each Holder a copy of the Prospectus forming a part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, together with an appropriate letter of transmittal and related documents;

(ii) commence and use its commercially reasonable efforts to consummate the Registered Exchange Offer within thirty (30) days from the date the Exchange offer Registration Statement was declared effective, and hold the Registered Exchange Offer open for not less than twenty (20) Business Days (or longer if required by applicable law) after the date notice of the Registered Exchange Offer is mailed to Holders;

(iii) subject to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement Deferral and Suspension Periods, use its reasonable best efforts to keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement continuously effective under the Act, supplemented and amended as required under the Act to ensure that it is available for sales of New Securities by Exchanging Dealers or the Initial Purchaser during the Exchange Offer Registration Period;

(iv) utilize the services of a depositary for the Registered Exchange Offer, which may be the Trustee or any of its Affiliates;

(v) permit Holders to withdraw tendered Securities at any time prior to the close of business, New York time, on the last Business Day on which the Registered Exchange Offer is open; and

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

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

(i) accept for exchange all Securities validly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer;

(ii) deliver to the Trustee for cancellation in accordance with Section 5(r) hereof all Securities so accepted for exchange; and

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

(e) Each Holder hereby acknowledges and agrees that any Broker-Dealer and any such Holder using the Registered Exchange Offer to participate in a distribution of the New Securities (x) could not under Commission policy as in effect on the date of this Agreement rely on the position of the Commission in ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Co., Inc. (pub. avail. June 5, 1991) and Exxon Capital Holdings Corporation (pub. avail. May 13, 1988), as interpreted in the Commission’s letter to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & Sterling, dated July 2, 1993 and similar no-action letters; and (y) must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Act in connection with any secondary resale transaction which must be covered by an effective registration statement containing the selling security holder information required by Item 507 or 508, as applicable, of Regulation S-K under the Act if the resales are of New Securities obtained by such Holder in exchange for Securities acquired by such Holder directly from the Company or one of its Affiliates. Accordingly, each Holder participating in the Registered Exchange Offer shall be required to represent to the Company that, at the time of the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer:

(i) if such Holder is not a Broker-Dealer, that it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, the distribution of the New Securities; and

(ii) if such Holder is a Broker-Dealer, that it will receive New Securities for its own account in exchange for Securities that were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities and that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such New Securities.

3. Shelf Registration.

(a) If (i) the Company is not permitted to file the Exchange Offer Registration Statement; (ii) the Company determines, upon advice of its outside counsel, that it is not reasonably practical, to effect the Registered Exchange Offer as contemplated by Section 2 herein, including scenarios that the Company could incur special interest as discussed in Section 4 herein (iii) for any other reason the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is not declared effective within 180 days from the Closing Date or the Registered Exchange Offer is not consummated within the period referenced in Section 2(c)(ii) herein; (iv) the Initial Purchaser determines upon advice of its counsel that a Shelf Registration Statement must be filed in connection with any public offering or sale of Securities that are not eligible to be exchanged for New Securities in the Registered Exchange Offer and that are held by them following consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer; or (v) any Holder (other than the Initial Purchaser) is not eligible to participate in the Registered Exchange Offer or does not receive freely tradeable New Securities in the Registered Exchange Offer other than by reason of such Holder being an Affiliate of the Company (it being understood that the requirement that a participating Broker-Dealer deliver the prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement in connection with sales of New Securities shall not result in such New Securities being not “freely tradeable”), the Company shall effect a Shelf Registration Statement in accordance with subsection (b) below; provided, however, that the Company shall have the right to defer the filing of the Shelf Registration Statement (or suspend sales under the Shelf Registration Statement or defer the updating of the Shelf Registration Statement and suspend sales thereunder) for a period of not more than sixty (60) consecutive days (and, in the aggregate, not more than ninety (90) days) per any one year period, if it determines that it would be materially detrimental to the Company to file such Shelf Registration Statement or continue sales under such Shelf Registration Statement and conclude, as a result, that it is in the Company’s best interests and the best interests of its stockholders to defer the filing of such Registration Statement or suspend such sales under such Shelf Registration Statement at such time (collectively referred to as the “Shelf Registration Statement Deferral and Suspension Periods” and, together with the Exchange Offer Registration Statement Deferral and Suspension Periods, the “Deferral and Suspension Periods”).

(b) If required pursuant to subsection (a) above,

(i) the Company, at its cost, shall as promptly as practicable, but in no event later than 90 days after such obligation to file arises, file with the Commission and cause to be declared effective under the Act, a Shelf Registration

Statement relating to the offer and sale of the Securities or the New Securities, as applicable, by the Holders thereof from time to time in accordance with the methods of distribution elected by such Holders and set forth in such Shelf Registration Statement; provided, however, that no Holder (other than the Initial Purchaser) shall be entitled to have the Securities or New Securities held by it covered by such Shelf Registration Statement unless such Holder agrees in writing to be bound by all of the provisions of this Agreement applicable to such Holder; and provided further, that with respect to New Securities received by the Initial Purchaser in exchange for Securities constituting any portion of an unsold allotment, the Company may, if permitted by current interpretations by the Commission’s staff, file a post-effective amendment to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement containing the information required by Item 507 or 508 of Regulation S-K, as applicable, in satisfaction of its obligations under this subsection with respect thereto, and any such Exchange Offer Registration Statement, as so amended, shall be referred to herein as, and governed by the provisions herein applicable to, a Shelf Registration Statement.

(ii) the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective, supplemented and amended under the Act, in order to permit the Prospectus forming a part thereof to be usable by Holders for a period ending after the earlier of (A) the date on which all such Securities are disposed of in accordance with the Shelf Registration Statement, (B) the date on which such Securities become eligible for resale without restrictions pursuant to Rule 144 under the Act, or (C) one year after the Closing Date (in either such case, such period being called the “Shelf Registration Period”). The Company shall be deemed not to have used its commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement effective during the requisite period if it voluntarily takes any action that would result in Holders of Securities or New Securities covered thereby not being able to offer and sell such Securities or New Securities during that period, unless (a) such action is required by applicable law; (b) such action is taken by the Company in good faith and for valid business reasons (not including avoidance of the Company’s obligations hereunder), including, but not limited to, the acquisition or divestiture of assets, so long as the Company promptly thereafter complies with the requirements of Section 5(k) hereof, if applicable; or (c) such action is otherwise explicitly allowed under this Agreement (e.g., the Shelf Registration Statement Deferral and Suspension Periods).

(iii) the Company shall cause the Shelf Registration Statement and the related Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, as of the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement or such amendment or supplement, (A) to comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission; and (B) not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

4. Special Interest. If (a) the Registered Exchange Offer has not been consummated within 240 days after the Closing Date, or (b) after either the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or the Shelf Registration Statement has been declared effective, such Registration Statement thereafter ceases to be effective or usable in connection with resales of Securities in accordance with and during the periods specified in this Agreement (each such event referred to in clauses (a) and (b), a (“Registration Default”), then, as liquidated damages, interest (“Special Interest”) will accrue on the principal amount of the Securities (in addition to the stated interest on the Securities) from and including the date on which any such Registration Default shall occur to but excluding the date on which all Registration Defaults have been cured. Special Interest will accrue at a rate of 0.25% per annum with respect to the first 90-day period immediately following the occurrence of the first Registration Default and will increase to 0.50% per annum with respect to each subsequent 90 day period thereafter until all Registration Defaults have been cured; provided, however, that for the avoidance of doubt, such Special Interest shall not accrue during any subsequent 90 day period at a rate in excess of 0.50% per annum. The Company shall pay Special Interest on regular interest payment dates in the same manner as other interest. Prior to determining a Registration Default relating to clause (b) of this Section 4, the Deferral and Suspension Periods shall be taken into account.

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

5. Additional Registration Procedures. In connection with any Shelf Registration Statement and, to the extent applicable, any Exchange Offer Registration Statement, the following provisions shall apply.

(i) furnish to the Initial Purchaser, not less than two (2) Business Days prior to the filing thereof with the Commission, a draft copy of any Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any Shelf Registration Statement, and each amendment thereof and each amendment or supplement, if any, to the Prospectus included therein (including all documents incorporated by reference therein after the initial filing) and shall use its reasonable best efforts to reflect in each such document, when so filed with the Commission, such comments as the Initial Purchaser may reasonably propose;

(j) The Company shall cooperate with the Holders of Securities and New Securities to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing New Securities or Securities to be issued or sold pursuant to any Registration Statement free of any restrictive legends and in such denominations and registered in such names as Holders may request.

The actions set forth in clauses (iii), (iv) and (v) of this Section shall be performed at (A) the effectiveness of such Registration Statement and each post-effective amendment thereto; and (B) each closing under any underwriting or similar agreement as and to the extent required thereunder.

(s) If a Registered Exchange Offer is to be consummated, upon delivery of the Securities by Holders to the Company (or to such other Person as directed by the Company) in exchange for the New Securities, the Company shall mark, or caused to be marked, on the Securities so exchanged that such Securities are being canceled in exchange for the New Securities. In no event shall the Securities be marked as paid or otherwise satisfied.

(t) If any Broker-Dealer shall underwrite any Securities or New Securities or participate as a member of an underwriting syndicate or selling group or “assist in the distribution” (within the meaning of the Rules of Fair Practice and the By-Laws of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc.) thereof, whether as a Holder of such Securities or New Securities or as an Underwriter, a placement or sales agent or a broker or dealer in respect thereof, or otherwise, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to assist such Broker-Dealer in complying with the requirements of such Rules and By-Laws, including, without limitation, by:

(i) if such Rules or By-Laws shall so require, engaging a “qualified independent underwriter” (as defined in such Rules) to participate in the preparation of the Registration Statement, to exercise usual standards of due diligence with respect thereto and, if any portion of the offering contemplated by such Registration Statement is an underwritten offering or is made through a placement or sales agent, to recommend the yield of such Securities or New Securities;

(ii) indemnifying any such qualified independent underwriter to the extent of the indemnification of Underwriters provided in Section 7 hereof; and

(iii) providing such information to such Broker-Dealer as may be required in order for such Broker-Dealer to comply with the requirements of such Rules.

7. Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless (i) the Initial Purchaser, (ii) each Holder of Securities or New Securities, as the case may be, covered by any Registration Statement (including each Exchanging Dealer, with respect to any Prospectus delivery as contemplated in Section 5(h) hereof), (iii) each Person, if any, who controls (within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) any of the foregoing (any of the Persons referred to in this clause (iii) being hereinafter referred to as a “controlling person”), and (iv) the respective officers, directors and partners, employees, representatives and agents of the Initial Purchaser, the Holders (including predecessor Holders) or any controlling person (any person referred to in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) may hereinafter be referred to as an “Indemnified Holder”), from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented legal fees and other expenses incurred in connection with any suit, action or proceeding or any claim asserted) (collectively “Losses”) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, preliminary Prospectus or Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as such Losses are caused by any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to any Indemnified Holder furnished to the

Company in writing by such Indemnified Holder expressly for use therein; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable to any Indemnified Holder to the extent Losses were solely caused by an untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission that was contained or made in any preliminary prospectus and corrected in the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto if (i) the Prospectus does not contain any other untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission of a material fact that was the subject matter of the related proceeding, (ii) any such Losses resulted from an action, claim or suit by any Person who purchased Securities or New Securities which are the subject thereof from such Indemnified Holder and (iii) it is established in the related proceeding that such Indemnified Holder failed to deliver or provide a copy of the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented) to such Person with or prior to the confirmation of the sale of such Securities or New Securities sold to such Person if required by applicable law, unless such failure to deliver or provide a copy of the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented) was a result of noncompliance by the Company with Section 5 of this Agreement; the Company shall notify such Indemnified Holder promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any claim, proceeding (including any governmental investigation) or litigation in connection with the matters addressed by this Agreement which involves the Company or such Indemnified Holder.

(b) Each Holder agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors and officers and each Person who controls the Company within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to each Holder, from any and all Losses caused by any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to a Holder furnished to the Company in writing by such Holder expressly for use in any Registration Statement, preliminary Prospectus or Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which any such Holder may otherwise have.

(c) The Initial Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors and officers and each Person who controls the Company within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to the Initial Purchaser, from any and all Losses caused by any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to the Initial Purchaser furnished to the Company in writing by the Initial Purchaser expressly for use in any Registration Statement, preliminary Prospectus or Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Initial Purchaser may otherwise have.

(d) If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted against any Person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to either of the three preceding paragraphs, such Person (the “Indemnified Person”) shall promptly notify the Person or Persons against whom such indemnity may be sought (each an “Indemnifying Person”) in writing. The Indemnifying Person shall have the right, exercisable by giving

written notice to an Indemnified Person, within twenty (20) Business Days after receipt of written notice from such Indemnified Person of such proceeding, to assume, at its expense, the defense of any such proceeding, provided, that an Indemnified Person shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person or parties unless: (1) the Indemnifying Person has agreed to pay such fees and expenses; or (2) the Indemnifying Person shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such proceeding; or (3) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Person or any of its affiliates or controlling persons, and such Indemnified Person shall have been advised by counsel that there may be one or more defenses available to such Indemnified Person that are in addition to, or in conflict with, those defenses available to the Indemnifying Person or such affiliate or controlling person (in which case, if such Indemnified Person notifies the Indemnifying Person in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Person, the Indemnifying Person shall not have the right to assume the defense and the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Person. It is understood that an Indemnifying Person shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Indemnified Persons, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Any such separate firm for the Indemnified Holders shall be designated in writing by the Holders of the majority in amount of Securities and New Securities offered in the Prospectus to which the claim relates, any such separate firm for the Company, its directors, respective officers and such control Persons of the Company shall be designated in writing by the Company. No Indemnifying Person shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such written consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such proceeding, such Indemnifying Person jointly and severally agrees, subject to the exceptions and limitations set forth above, to indemnify and hold harmless any Indemnified Person from and against any Loss by reason of such settlement or judgment. No Indemnifying Person shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, consent to the entry of any judgment or effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.

(e) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7 is unavailable to an Indemnified Person or insufficient in respect of any Losses referred to therein, then each applicable Indemnifying Person in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder, shall have a joint and several obligation to contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such Losses (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Indemnifying Person, on the one hand, and the Indemnified Person, on the other hand, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement or from the offering of the Securities or New Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement which resulted in such Losses or (ii) if the allocation provided by

clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Indemnifying Person, on the one hand, and the Indemnified Person, on the other, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and any Indemnified Holder, on the other, shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the Initial Placement received by the Company bear to the total net proceeds received by such Indemnified Holder from sales of Securities or New Securities giving rise to such obligations. The relative fault of the parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or such Indemnified Holder and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

(f) Each of the Company and the Initial Purchaser agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Person as a result of the Losses referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, in no event shall any Holder of any Securities or New Securities be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of the Security or New Security pursuant to a Registration Statement exceeds the amount of damages which such Holder would have otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(g) The remedies provided for in this Section 7 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies that may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.

(h) The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section 7 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Holder or any Person controlling any Holder or by or on behalf of the Company, its officers or directors or any other Person controlling any of the Company and (iii) acceptance of and payment for any of the Securities or New Securities.

8. No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company has not, as of the date hereof, entered into, nor shall it, on or after the date hereof, enter into, any agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders herein or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof.

9. Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, qualified, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless the Company has obtained the written consent of the Majority Holders (or, after the consummation of any Registered Exchange Offer in accordance with Section 2 hereof, of New Securities); provided, however, that, with respect to any matter that directly or indirectly affects the rights of the Initial Purchaser hereunder, the Company shall obtain the written consent of the Initial Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing (except the foregoing proviso), a waiver or consent to departure from the provisions hereof with respect to a matter that relates exclusively to the rights of Holders whose Securities or New Securities, as the case may be, are being sold pursuant to a Registration Statement and that does not directly or indirectly affect the rights of other Holders may be given by the Majority Holders, determined on the basis of Securities or New Securities, as the case may be, being sold rather than registered under such Registration Statement.

10. Notices. All notices and other communications (including without limitation any notices or other communications to the Trustee) provided for or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand-delivery, registered first-class mail, next-day air courier or facsimile:

ANNEX A

Each Broker-Dealer that receives New Securities for its own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such New Securities. The Letter of Transmittal states that by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, a Broker-Dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Act. This Prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a Broker-Dealer in connection with resales of New Securities received in exchange for Securities where such Securities were acquired by such Broker-Dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. The Company has agreed that, starting on the Expiration Date (as defined herein) and ending on the close of business one year after the Expiration Date, or such shorter period as will terminate when all New Securities held by Exchanging Dealers or the Initial Purchaser have been sold pursuant hereto, it will make this Prospectus available to any Broker-Dealer for use in connection with any such resale. Furthermore, any Broker-Dealer that acquired any of the old notes directly from us:

•

may not rely on the applicable interpretation of the staff of the SEC’s position contained in Exxon Capital Holdings Corporation (pub. avail. May 13, 1988), ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Co., Inc. (pub. avail. June 5, 1991), ), as interpreted in the Commission’s letter to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ dated July 2, 1993 and similar no-action letters; and

•

must also be named as a selling noteholder in connection with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Act relating to any resale transaction.

See “Plan of Distribution.”

ANNEX B

Each Broker-Dealer that receives New Securities for its own account in exchange for Securities, where such Securities were acquired by such Broker-Dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, must acknowledge that it will comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Act in connection with any offer, resale or other transfer of such New Securities, including information with respect to any selling holder required by the Act in connection with the resale of the New Securities. See “Plan of Distribution.”

ANNEX C

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Each Broker-Dealer that receives New Securities for its own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such New Securities. This Prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a Broker-Dealer in connection with resales of New Securities received in exchange for Securities where such Securities were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. We have agreed that, starting on the Expiration Date and ending on the close of business 180-days after the Expiration Date or such shorter period as will terminate when all New Securities held by Exchanging Dealers or Initial Purchaser have been sold pursuant hereto, we will make this Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, available to any Broker-Dealer for use in connection with any such resale. In addition, until , 200 , all dealers effecting transactions in the New Securities may be required to deliver a prospectus.

We will not receive any proceeds from any sale of New Securities by brokers-dealers. New Securities received by Broker-Dealers for their own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions in the over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, through the writing of options on the New Securities or a combination of such methods of resale, at market prices prevailing at the time of resale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or negotiated prices. Any such resale may be made directly to purchasers or to or through brokers or dealers who may receive compensation in the form of commissions or concessions from any such Broker-Dealer and/or the purchasers of any such New Securities. Any Broker-Dealer that resells New Securities that were received by it for its own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer and any broker or dealer that participates in a distribution of such New Securities may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Act and any profit of any such resale of New Securities and any commissions or concessions received by any such Persons may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Act. The Letter of Transmittal states that by acknowledging that it will deliver and by delivering a prospectus, a Broker-Dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Act.

Furthermore, any broker-dealer that acquired any of the old notes directly from us:

•

must also be named as a selling noteholder in connection with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Act relating to any resale transaction.

For a period of 180-days after the Expiration Date or such shorter period as will terminate when all New Securities held by Exchanging Dealers or Initial Purchaser have been

sold pursuant hereto, we will promptly send additional copies of this Prospectus and any amendment or supplement to this Prospectus to any Broker-Dealer that requests such documents in the Letter of Transmittal. We have agreed to pay all expenses incident to the Exchange Offer (including the expenses of one counsel for the holder of the Securities) other than commissions or concessions of any brokers or dealers and will indemnify the holders of the Securities (including any Broker-Dealers) against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Act.

[If applicable, add information required by Regulation S-K Items 507 and/or 508.]
