If, since the beginning of such period, any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged with or into any Issuer or Restricted Subsidiary since the beginning of such period shall have made or effected any Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, consolidation or discontinued operation, in each case, with respect to an operating unit of a business, or operational change that would have required adjustment pursuant to this definition, then the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect thereto for such period as if such Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, consolidation, discontinued operation or operational change had occurred at the beginning of the applicable Four-Quarter Period.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event an item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) is incurred or issued, any Lien is incurred or other transaction is undertaken in reliance on ratio basket based on the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio or Consolidated Leverage Ratio, such ratio(s) shall be calculated with respect to such incurrence, issuance or other transaction without giving effect to amounts being utilized under any other basket (other than a ratio basket based on the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio or Consolidated Leverage Ratio) on the same date.

Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments or record or both are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to either of the Issuers or the Guarantors. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent, or the holding by any Person of a Note, shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 7.01) conclusive in favor of the Trustee, the Issuers and the Guarantors, if made in the manner provided in this Section 1.04.

(e) The Issuer may set a record date for purposes of determining the identity of Holders entitled to make, give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to be made, or to vote on any action authorized or permitted to be taken by Holders; provided that the Issuer may not set a record date for, and this Section 1.04(e) shall not apply with respect to, the giving or making of any notice, declaration, request or direction referred to in Section 1.04(f). Unless otherwise specified, if not set by the Issuer prior to the first solicitation of a Holder made by any Person in respect of any such action, or in the case of any such vote, prior to such vote, any such record date shall be the later of 30 days prior to the first solicitation of such consent or vote or, if required under Section 2.05, the date of the most recent list of Holders furnished to the Trustee prior to such solicitation or vote. If any record date is set pursuant to this Section 1.04(e), the Holders on such record date, and only such Holders, shall be entitled to make, give or take such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action (including revocation of any action), whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless made, given or taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Notes, or each affected Holder, as applicable, on such record date. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Issuers, at their own expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Trustee in writing and to each Holder in the manner set forth in Section 12.01.

(f) The Trustee may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to join in the giving or making of (1) any notice of default under Section 6.01(a), subject to the provisions of Section 7.05, (2) any declaration of acceleration referred to in Section 6.02, (3) any direction referred to in Section 6.05 or (4) any request to pursue a remedy referred to in Section 6.06(2).

42

notice, declaration, request or direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless made, given or taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Notes or each affected Holder, as applicable, on such record date. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee, at the Issuers’ expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Issuers and to each Holder in the manner set forth in Section 12.01.

(g) Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled to take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Note may do so with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Note or by one or more duly appointed agents, each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount. Any notice given or action taken by a Holder or its agents with regard to different parts of such principal amount pursuant to this paragraph shall have the same effect as if given or taken by separate Holders of each such different part.

(h) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a Holder, including a Depositary that is the Holder of a Global Note, may make, give or take, by a proxy or proxies duly appointed in writing, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to be made, given or taken by Holders, and a Depositary that is the Holder of a Global Note may provide its proxy or proxies to the beneficial owners of interests in any such Global Note through such Depositary’s standing instructions and customary practices.

(i) The Issuers may fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Persons who are beneficial owners of interests in any Global Note held by a Depositary entitled under the procedures of such Depositary, if any, to make, give or take, by a proxy or proxies duly appointed in writing, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to be made, given or taken by Holders; provided that if such a record date is fixed, only the beneficial owners of interests in such Global Note on such record date or their duly appointed proxy or proxies shall be entitled to make, give or take such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, whether or not such beneficial owners remain beneficial owners of interests in such Global Note after such record date. No such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action shall be effective hereunder unless made, given or taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date.

(j) With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 1.04, the party hereto that sets such record date may designate any day as the “Expiration Date” and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided that no such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration Date is given to the other party hereto in writing, and to each Holder of Notes in the manner set forth in Section 12.01, on or prior to both the existing and the new Expiration Date. If an Expiration Date is not designated with respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 1.04, the party hereto which set such record date shall be deemed to have initially designated the 30th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to its right to change the Expiration Date as provided in this Section 1.04(j).

Section 1.05 No Incorporation by Reference of Trust Indenture Act.

This Indenture is not, and will not be, qualified under, subject to, or incorporate, restate or make reference to, any provision of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended.

Section 1.06 Financial Calculations for Limited Condition Acquisitions.

When calculating the availability under any threshold based on a dollar amount, percentage of Consolidated Tangible Assets or other financial measure (a “basket”) or ratio under this Indenture, in each case, in connection with a Limited Condition Acquisition, the date of determination of such basket or ratio and of any Default or Event of Default may, at the option of the Issuers, be the date the definitive agreement(s) for such Limited Condition Acquisition is entered into. Any such ratio or basket shall be calculated on a pro forma basis, including with such adjustments as are appropriate and consistent with the pro forma adjustment provisions set forth in the definition of Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, after giving effect to such Limited Condition Acquisition and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness or preferred stock and the use of proceeds thereof) as if they had been consummated at the beginning of the applicable period for purposes of determining the ability to consummate any such Limited Condition Acquisition (and not for purposes of any subsequent availability of any basket or ratio); provided that if the Issuers elect to make such determination as of the date of such definitive agreement(s), then (x) if any of such ratios are no longer complied with or baskets are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in such ratio or basket subsequent to such date of determination and at or prior to the consummation of the relevant Limited Condition Acquisition, such ratios or baskets will not be deemed to have been no longer complied with or exceeded as a result of such fluctuations solely for purposes of determining whether the Limited Condition Acquisition is permitted under this Indenture and (y) such ratios or baskets shall not be tested at the time of consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition or related transactions; provided, further, that if the Issuers elect to have such determinations occur at the time of entry into such definitive agreement(s), any such transactions (including any incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness or preferred stock and the use of proceeds thereof, the granting, creation, incurrence or suffering to exist of any Lien and the making of any Investment) shall be deemed to have occurred on the date the definitive agreement(s) is entered into and shall be deemed outstanding thereafter for purposes of calculating any ratios or baskets under this Indenture after the date of such definitive agreement(s) and before the consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition, unless such definitive agreement(s) is terminated or such Limited Condition Acquisition or incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness or preferred stock or such other transaction to which pro forma effect is being given is abandoned or with respect to which the Issuers have notified the Trustee in writing will not occur.

ARTICLE 2

THE NOTES

Section 2.01 Form and Dating; Terms.

(a) The Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall each be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, rules or agreements with national securities exchanges to which any of the Issuers or Guarantors is subject, if any, or general usage (provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Issuers but which notation, legend or endorsement does not affect the rights, duties or obligations of the Trustee). Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. The Initial Notes shall be in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

(b) The aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is unlimited.

The terms and provisions contained in the Notes shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture, and the Issuers and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. 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.

The Notes shall be subject to repurchase by the Issuers pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer as provided in Section 4.11 or a Change of Control Offer as provided in Section 4.15, and otherwise as not prohibited by this Indenture. The Notes shall not be redeemable other than as provided in Article 3.

Additional Notes ranking pari passu with the Initial Notes may be created and issued from time to time by the Issuers without notice to or consent of the Holders and shall be consolidated with and form a single class with the Initial Notes and shall have substantially identical terms, including as to status, waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase redemption as the Initial Notes (except to the extent that such Additional Notes are subject to transaction-specific redemption or repurchase provisions permitted to exist pursuant to the terms of this Indenture), but may have different issue prices, issue dates and CUSIP numbers; provided that the Issuers’ ability to issue Additional Notes shall be subject to the Issuers’ compliance with Section 4.10. Any Additional Notes shall be issued under an indenture supplemental to this Indenture.

(c) Global Notes. Notes issued in global form shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (including any legends thereon but without the Definitive Notes Legend). Notes issued in definitive form shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (including any legends thereon but without the Global Note Legend thereon and without the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Each Global Note shall represent the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes as shall be specified therein and each shall provide that it represents the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges, repurchases and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby shall be made in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.06 and shall be made on the records of the Registrar or the Depositary, as the case may be.

45

(d) The customary applicable terms, conditions and procedures of Euroclear and Clearstream shall be applicable to transfers of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Global Note that are held by participants through Euroclear or Clearstream.

Section 2.02 Execution and Authentication.

(a) At least one Officer shall execute the Notes on behalf of each of the Issuers by manual, facsimile or electronically transmitted signature. If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time a Note is authenticated, the Note shall nevertheless be valid.

(b) A Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose until authenticated substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto by the manual signature of an authorized signatory of the Trustee. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been duly authenticated and delivered under this Indenture.

(c) On the Issue Date, the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a written order of the Issuers signed by an Officer (an “Authentication Order”), authenticate and deliver the Initial Notes. The Trustee shall be fully protected and shall incur no liability for failing to take any action with respect to the delivery of any Notes unless and until it has received such Authentication Order, Opinion of Counsel and Officer’s Certificate. In addition, at any time and from time to time, the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, Opinion of Counsel and Officer’s Certificate, authenticate and deliver any Definitive Notes to be issued in exchange for interests in Global Notes, any Additional Notes, any replacement Notes to be issued pursuant to Section 2.07 or any Notes issuable following a redemption or repurchase by the Issuers pursuant to the terms of this Indenture in an aggregate principal amount specified in such Authentication Order for such Notes issued hereunder.

(d) The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Issuers to authenticate Notes. 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 an Agent to deal with Holders or an Affiliate of the Issuers.

Section 2.03 Registrar and Paying Agent.

(a) The Issuers shall maintain at least one office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”) and at least one office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”). The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange (“Note Register”). The Issuers may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar, and the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent. The Issuers may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without prior notice to any Holder; provided, however, that no such removal shall become effective until acceptance of an appointment by a successor as evidenced by an appropriate agreement entered into by the Issuers and such successor Registrar or Paying Agent, as the case may be, and delivered to the Trustee

46

and the passage of any waiting or notice periods required by the Depositary’s procedures. The Issuers shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Registrar or Paying Agent not a party to this Indenture. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such Agent. The Issuers shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Issuers fail to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such for the Notes and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 7.07. The Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent (except for purposes of Article 8) or Registrar.

(b) The Issuers initially appoint DTC to act as Depositary (the “Depositary”) with respect to the Global Notes representing Initial Notes. The Issuers initially appoint the Trustee to act as Paying Agent, Custodian and Registrar for the Notes. The Issuers have entered into a letter of representations with DTC in the form provided by DTC and the Trustee and each Agent are hereby authorized to act in accordance with such letter and Applicable Procedures.

(c) The Issuers shall be responsible for making calculations called for under the Notes and this Indenture, including but not limited to determination of interest, redemption price, premium, if any, and any other amounts payable on the Notes. The Issuers will make the calculations in good faith and, absent manifest error, its calculations will be final and binding on the Holders. The Issuers will provide a schedule of their calculations to the Trustee when requested by the Trustee, and the Trustee is entitled to rely conclusively on the accuracy of such calculations without independent verification. The Trustee shall forward the Issuers’ calculations to any Holder upon the written request of such Holder.

Section 2.04 Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust.

The Issuers shall, by no later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on each due date for the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on any of the Notes, deposit with the Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such amount, such sum to be held in trust for the Holders entitled to the same, and, if the Trustee is not the Paying Agent, the Issuers shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing (which notice may be electronic) of their action or failure so to act. The Issuers shall require the Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that such Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by such Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes and shall notify the Trustee in writing (which notice may be electronic) of any default by the Issuers in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Issuers 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 payment over to the Trustee, and upon accounting for any funds disbursed, a Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money. If either of the Issuers or a Restricted Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Issuers, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent.

47

Section 2.05 Holder Lists.

The Registrar shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of all Holders of the Notes. If the Trustee is not the Registrar in respect of the Notes, the Issuers shall 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 reasonably 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 the Holders.

Section 2.06 Transfer and Exchange.

(a) 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 Appendix A.

(b) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Issuers shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02 or at the Registrar’s request.

(c) No service charge shall be made to a holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note or to a Holder of a Definitive Note for any registration of transfer or exchange (other than pursuant to Section 2.07), but the Holders shall be required to pay any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.10, 3.06, 3.09, 4.11, 4.15 and 9.04). In addition, the Trustee, Transfer Agent and Registrar may request such other evidence as may be reasonably requested by them documenting the identity and/or signatures of the transferor and the transferees.

(d) All Global Notes and Definitive Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Notes or Definitive Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Issuers, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global Notes or Definitive Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. Any holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note shall, by acceptance of such beneficial interest, agree that transfers of beneficial interests in such Global Note may be effected only through a book-entry system maintained by the Holder of such Global Note (or its agent) and that ownership of a beneficial interest in such Global Note shall be required to be reflected in a book entry.

(e) Neither the Issuers nor the Registrar shall be required (1) to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the delivery of a notice of redemption pursuant to Section 3.03 and ending at the delivery of such notice of redemption, (2) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part or (3) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note between a Record Date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date.

(f) Prior to due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any Note, each of the Trustee, any Agent or the Issuers may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal, premium, if any, and (subject to the Record Date provisions of the Notes) interest on such Notes and for all other purposes, and none of the Trustee, any Agent or the Issuers shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

48

(g) Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the office or agency of the Issuers designated pursuant to Section 4.02, the Issuers shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver upon receipt of an Authentication Order, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more replacement Notes of any authorized denomination or denominations of a like aggregate principal amount so long as the requirements of this Indenture are met.

(h) At the option of the Holder, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of any authorized denomination or denominations of a like aggregate principal amount upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at the office or agency of the Issuers designated pursuant to Section 4.02 so long as the requirements of this Indenture are met. Whenever any Global Notes or Definitive Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Issuers shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the replacement Global Notes or Definitive Notes, as applicable, to which the Holder making the exchange is entitled in accordance with the provisions of Appendix A so long as the requirements of this Indenture are met.

(i) All certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to be submitted to the Registrar pursuant to this Section 2.06 to effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by mail or by facsimile or electronic transmission.

(j) In connection with any proposed transfer of Notes, the transferor shall be required to provide or cause to be provided to the Trustee all information necessary to allow the Trustee to comply with any applicable tax reporting obligations, including any cost basis reporting obligations under Section 6045 of the Code. The Trustee may rely on any such information provided to it and shall have no responsibility to verify or ensure the accuracy of such information.

For certain payments made pursuant to this Indenture, the Paying Agent or Trustee may be required to make a “reportable payment” or “withholdable payment” and in such cases the Paying Agent or Trustee shall have the duty to act as a payor or withholding agent, respectively, that is responsible for any tax withholding and reporting required under Chapters 3, 4 and 61 of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Paying Agent and/or Trustee shall have the sole right to make the determination as to which payments are “reportable payments” or “withholdable payments.” All parties to this Indenture shall provide an executed IRS Form W-9 or appropriate IRS Form W-8 (or, in each case, any successor form) to the Paying Agent prior to closing, and shall promptly update any such form to the extent such form becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect. The Paying Agent and Trustee shall have the right to request from any party to this Indenture, or any other Person entitled to payment hereunder, any additional forms, documentation or other information as may be reasonably necessary for the Paying Agent to satisfy its reporting and withholding obligations under the Code. To the extent requested a reasonable time in advance and any such forms to be delivered under this Section 2.06 are not provided prior to or by the time the related payment is required to be made or are determined by the Paying Agent or Trustee to be incomplete and/or inaccurate in any respect, the Paying Agent or Trustee shall be entitled to withhold on any such payments hereunder to the extent withholding is required under Chapters 3, 4 or 61 of the Code, and shall have no obligation to gross up any such payment.

49

Section 2.07 Replacement Notes.

(a) If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Registrar or if a Holder claims that its Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken and the Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of the ownership and loss, destruction or theft of such Note, the Issuers shall issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s reasonable requirements are otherwise met. An indemnity bond must be provided by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Issuers to protect the Issuers, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuers may charge the Holder for the expenses of the Issuers and the Trustee (including reasonable respective fees and expenses of counsel) in replacing a Note. Every replacement Note is a contractual obligation of the Issuers and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.07(a), in case any mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Issuers in their discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay such Note. Upon the issuance of any replacement Note under this Section 2.07, the Issuers may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and the Trustee) connected therewith.

(b) 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.

Section 2.08 Outstanding Notes.

(a) The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes that have been authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected in accordance with the provisions hereof, those paid pursuant to Section 2.07, those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding and, solely to the extent provided for in Article 8, Notes that are subject to Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance as provided in Article 8. Except as set forth in Section 2.09, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds the Note; provided that Notes held by the Issuer or a Subsidiary of the Issuer shall not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of Section 3.07(b).

(b) If a Note is replaced or paid pursuant to Section 2.07, it ceases to be outstanding.

(c) If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue from and after the date of such payment.

50

(d) If a Paying Agent (other than the Issuer, a Restricted Subsidiary or any Affiliate thereof) holds, on the maturity date, any redemption date or any date of purchase pursuant to an offer to purchase, money sufficient to pay Notes payable or to be redeemed or purchased on that date, then on and after that date such Notes shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding and shall cease to accrue interest.

Section 2.09 Treasury Notes.

In determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent (other than a waiver or consent contemplated by Section 9.02(e) requiring the consent of each Holder or each affected Holder), Notes beneficially owned by the Issuers, or by any Affiliate of the Issuers, shall be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Notes so owned that have been pledged in good faith shall not be disregarded if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right to deliver any such direction, waiver or consent with respect to the Notes and that the pledgee is not the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or any obligor under the Notes or any Affiliate of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or of such other obligor.

Section 2.10 Temporary Notes.

Until definitive Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuers may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of definitive Notes but may have variations that the Issuers consider appropriate for temporary Notes and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuers shall prepare and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes upon surrender of such temporary Notes at the office or agency of the Issuers, without charge to the Holder. Until so exchanged, the Holders and beneficial holders, as the case may be, of temporary Notes shall be entitled to all of the benefits accorded to Holders, or beneficial holders, respectively, of Notes under this Indenture.

Section 2.11 Cancellation.

The Issuers at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation and the Trustee will cancel such Notes in accordance with its customary procedures. The Registrar and 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 all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall dispose of canceled Notes in accordance with its customary procedures (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act). The Trustee shall retain all canceled Notes in accordance with its standard procedures (subject to the record retention requirements of the Exchange Act), and evidence of such cancellation shall be provided to the Issuers upon the Issuers’ written request. The Issuers may not issue new Notes (other than additional Notes pursuant to this Indenture) to replace Notes that they have paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. If the Issuers acquire any of the Notes, such acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of Indebtedness represented by such Notes unless or until the same are delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. No Trustee shall authenticate Notes in place of canceled Notes other than pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.

51

Section 2.12 Defaulted Interest.

(a) If the Issuers default in a payment of interest on the Notes, they shall pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01. The Issuers shall notify the Trustee in writing (which notice may be electronic) of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Issuers shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such defaulted interest or shall make arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such defaulted interest as provided in this Section 2.12. The Issuers shall fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date; provided that no such special record date shall be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Issuers (or, upon the written request of the Issuers, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuers) shall send, or cause to be sent, to each Holder a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid.

(b) Subject to Section 2.12(a) and for greater certainty, each Note delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue interest, which were carried by such other Note.

Section 2.13 ▇▇▇▇▇ and ISIN Numbers.

The Issuers in issuing the Notes may use CUSIP or ISIN numbers (if then generally in use) and if they do, the Trustee may use CUSIP or ISIN numbers in notices as a convenience to Holders; provided 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 and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such notice shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Issuers shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing (which notice may be electronic) of any change in the CUSIP or ISIN numbers.

Section 2.14 Computation of Interest.

Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

ARTICLE 3

REDEMPTION

Section 3.01 Notices to Trustee.

If the Issuers elect to redeem Notes pursuant to Section 3.07, they shall furnish to the Trustee, not less than 10 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date, an Officer’s Certificate (which may be withdrawn prior to the date such notice of redemption is given) setting forth (1) the paragraph or subparagraph of such Article or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the redemption shall occur, (2) the redemption date, (3) the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, as applicable, (4) the redemption price, if then ascertainable, and (5) the CUSIP and ISIN number, if applicable, of the Notes to be redeemed.

If the redemption price is not known at the time such notice is to be given, the actual redemption price, calculated as described in the terms of the Notes to be redeemed, shall be set forth in an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee no later than two Business Days prior to the redemption date.

Section 3.02 Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed or Purchased.

(a) If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed pursuant to Section 3.07 or purchased in an offer to purchase at any time, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be redeemed or purchased (1) if the Notes are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange on which the Notes are listed, (2) if the Notes are not so listed but are in global form, then by lot or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of DTC or the Depositary or (3) if the Notes are not so listed and are not in global form, then on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee deems to be fair and appropriate, although no Note of $2,000 in original principal amount or less will be redeemed in part.

(b) The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuers in writing of the Notes selected for redemption or purchase. Notes and portions of Notes selected shall be in amounts of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof; except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed or purchased, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder, even if not $2,000 or a multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, shall be redeemed or purchased. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption or purchase also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase.

(c) After the redemption date, upon surrender of a Note to be redeemed in part only, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original Note, representing the same Indebtedness to the extent not redeemed, shall be issued in the name of the Holder of the Notes upon cancellation of the original Note (or appropriate book entries shall be made to reflect such partial redemption); provided that each new Note shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

53

Section 3.03 Notice of Redemption.

(a) Subject to Section 3.09 and, except in connection with Article 11, the Issuers shall give, or cause to be given electronically or by first-class mail notices of redemption of Notes at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed (with a copy to the Trustee) pursuant to this Article at such Holder’s registered address, except that redemption notices may be delivered more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes pursuant to Article 8 or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Article 11, or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary. Notwithstanding the above, when notice has to be given to a holder of a global security (including any notice of redemption or repurchase) such notice shall be sufficiently given if given to DTC (or its designee) pursuant to the standing instructions from DTC or its designee, including by electronic mail in accordance with Applicable Procedures. Notices to the Trustee may be given by email in PDF format.

(b) The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed (including CUSIP and ISIN number, if applicable) and shall state:

(1) the redemption date;

(2) the redemption price, including the portion thereof representing any accrued and unpaid interest; provided that in connection with a redemption under Section 3.07(a), the notice need not set forth the redemption price but only the manner of calculation thereof;

(3) if any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the portion of the principal amount of that Note that is to be redeemed;

(4) the name and address of the Paying Agent and the Trustee;

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

(6) that, unless the Issuers default in making such redemption payment, interest on Notes called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date;

(7) the paragraph or subparagraph of the Notes or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed;

(8) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP or ISIN number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes; and

(9) if applicable, any condition to such redemption.

54

Any redemption of Notes and notice of redemption may, in the Issuers’ discretion, be subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, including the occurrence of a Change of Control. In addition, if such redemption is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, the redemption date may be delayed, in the Issuers’ discretion, until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Issuers in the Issuers’ discretion), or such redemption may not occur and the notice of redemption may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied (or waived by the Issuers in the Issuers’ discretion) by the applicable redemption date (whether the original redemption date or the redemption date so delayed). The Issuers shall provide written notice to the Trustee prior to the close of business two Business Days prior to the redemption date (or such shorter period as may be acceptable to the Trustee) if any such redemption has been rescinded or delayed, and upon receipt the Trustee shall provide such notice to each Holder in the same manner in which the notice of redemption was given. In addition, the Issuers may provide in the notice of redemption that payment of the redemption price and the performance of the Issuers’ obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.

(c) At the Issuers’ request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Issuers’ names and at the Issuers’ expense; provided that the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least 10 days before such notice is to be given to Holders pursuant to this Section 3.03 (unless a shorter notice shall be agreed to by the Trustee), an Officer’s Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and attaching the notice to be given which shall contain the information to be stated in such notice as provided in Section 3.03(b); provided that such Officer’s Certificate may be withdrawn by the Issuers upon written notice (which notice may be electronic) to the Trustee prior to the date such notice of redemption is required to be sent to Holders.

Section 3.04 Effect of Notice of Redemption.

Once notice of redemption is sent to Holders in accordance with Section 3.03, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the redemption date at the redemption price, subject to the satisfaction (or waiver by the Issuers in the Issuers’ discretion) of any conditions precedent to such redemption. The notice, if sent in a manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to give such notice or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Note designated for redemption in whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Note. Subject to Section 3.05, on and after the redemption date (whether the original redemption date or the redemption date so delayed), interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption.

Section 3.05 Deposit of Redemption or Purchase Price.

(a) By no later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the redemption or purchase date, the Issuers shall deposit with the Trustee, or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption or purchase price of and accrued and unpaid interest on all Notes to be redeemed or purchased on that date. The Trustee or Paying Agent shall promptly distribute to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed or repurchased the applicable redemption or purchase price thereof and accrued and unpaid interest thereon upon presentment of the Notes or pursuant to Applicable Procedures with respect to Global Notes. The Trustee or Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Issuers any money deposited with Trustee or Paying Agents by the Issuers in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption or purchase price of and accrued and unpaid interest on, all Notes to be redeemed or purchased.

55

(b) If the Issuers comply with Section 3.05(a), on and after the redemption or purchase date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase whether or not such Notes are presented for payment, and the Holders of such Notes shall have no further rights with respect to such Notes except the right to receive such payment of the redemption price and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such Notes upon surrender of such Notes. If a Note is redeemed or purchased on or after a Record Date but on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, then any accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption or purchase date shall be paid on the relevant Interest Payment Date to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such Record Date, and no additional interest shall be payable to Holders whose Notes shall be subject to redemption by the Issuers. If any Note called for redemption or purchase shall not be so paid upon surrender for redemption or purchase because of the failure of the Issuer to comply with Section 3.05(a), interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption or purchase date until such principal is paid.

Section 3.06 Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part.

Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed or purchased in part, the Issuers shall issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail to the Holder (or cause to be transferred by book entry) at the expense of the Issuers a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered representing the same Indebtedness to the extent not redeemed or purchased; provided that each new Note shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. It is understood that, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, only an Authentication Order and not an Opinion of Counsel or Officer’s Certificate is required for the Trustee to authenticate such new Note.

Section 3.07 Optional Redemption.

(a) At any time prior to October 1, 2027, the Issuers are entitled, on any one or more occasions, to redeem all or a part of the Notes, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable Redemption Date, subject to the rights of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date as provided in 3.07(g) falling on or prior to such redemption date. The Issuers shall notify the Trustee of the Applicable Premium promptly after the calculation, and the Trustee shall not be responsible for such calculation.

(b) At any time prior to October 1, 2027, the Issuers are entitled, on any one or more occasions, to redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes issued under this Indenture (including Additional Notes, if any) at a redemption price of 108.000% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date (the “Redemption Date”) (subject to the rights of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date as provided in Section 3.07(g) falling on or prior to such redemption date) with an amount equal to the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings; provided that;

56

(1) at least 60% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes (which includes Additional Notes, if any) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of any such redemption (other than Notes held, directly or indirectly, by the Issuers or Affiliates of the Issuers) unless all such Notes are redeemed substantially concurrently; and

(2) the redemption occurs prior to 90 days after the date of the closing of such Equity Offering.

(c) Except pursuant to Section 3.07(a) or (b), the Notes shall not be redeemable at the Issuers’ option prior to October 1, 2027.

(d) On or after October 1, 2027, the Issuers are entitled, on any one or more occasions, to redeem all or part of the Notes, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed) set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes redeemed to, but excluding, the applicable Redemption Date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on October 1 of the years indicated below, subject to the rights of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date falling on or prior to such redemption date as provided in Section 3.07(g):

(e) Any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall be made pursuant to Sections 3.01 through 3.06.

(f) Any redemption notice in connection with this Section 3.07 may, at the Issuers’ discretion, be subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, including the occurrence of a Change of Control, the consummation of an Equity Offering or other corporate transaction event.

(g) If the redemption date is on or after a Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest to but excluding such redemption date shall be paid to the Person in whose name the Note is registered at the close of business on such Record Date, and no additional interest shall be payable to Holders whose Notes shall be subject to redemption by the Issuers.

57

Section 3.08 Mandatory Redemption; Open Market Purchases.

The Issuers shall not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. The Issuers and their Affiliates may acquire Notes through redemption, by tender offer, open market purchases, negotiated transactions or otherwise, in accordance with applicable securities laws and, so long as such acquisition does not otherwise violate the terms of this Indenture, upon such terms and at such prices as the Issuers or their Affiliates may determine.

Section 3.09 Offers to Repurchase by Application of Excess Proceeds.

(a) In the event that, pursuant to Section 4.11, the Issuer is required or opts to commence an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuers shall follow the procedures specified below.

(b) The Asset Sale Offer shall be made to all Holders and if the Issuers elect (or are required by the terms of other Pari Passu Indebtedness), all holders of other Pari Passu Indebtedness. The Asset Sale Offer shall remain open for a period of at least 20 Business Days following its commencement, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Asset Sale Offer Period”). No later than five Business Days after the termination of the Asset Sale Offer Period (the “Asset Sale Purchase Date”), the Issuers shall apply all Excess Proceeds to the purchase of the aggregate principal amount of Notes and, if applicable, Pari Passu Indebtedness (on a pro rata basis, if applicable) required to be purchased pursuant to Section 4.11 (the “Asset Sale Offer Amount”), or if less than the Asset Sale Offer Amount of Notes (and, if applicable, Pari Passu Indebtedness) has been so validly tendered and not validly withdrawn, all Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness validly tendered and not validly withdrawn in response to the Asset Sale Offer. Payment for any Notes so purchased shall be made in the same manner as interest payments on the Notes are made.

(c) If the Asset Sale Purchase Date is on or after a Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest to but excluding the Asset Sale Purchase Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such Record Date, and no additional interest shall be payable to Holders whose Notes shall be tendered pursuant to such Asset Sale Offer.

(d) Upon the commencement of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuers shall deliver a notice (or, in the case of Global Notes, otherwise communicate in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary) to each of the Holders, with a copy to the Trustee. The notice shall contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. The Asset Sale Offer shall be made to all Holders and, to the extent required by the terms of the outstanding Pari Passu Indebtedness, all holders of such Pari Passu Indebtedness. The notice, which shall govern the terms of the Asset Sale Offer, shall state:

(1) that the Asset Sale Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3.09 and Section 4.11 and the length of time the Asset Sale Offer shall remain open;

58

(2) the Asset Sale Offer Amount, the purchase price, including the portion thereof representing any accrued and unpaid interest, and the Asset Sale Purchase Date;

(3) that any Note not properly tendered or accepted for payment shall continue to accrue interest;

(4) that, unless the Issuers default in making such payment, any Note accepted for payment pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer shall cease to accrue interest on and after the Asset Sale Purchase Date;

(5) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer may elect to have Notes purchased in integral multiples of $1,000 (with respect to the Notes) (although no Note of $2,000 in principal amount or less will be purchased in part);

(6) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer shall be required to (i) surrender such Note, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of such Note completed, or (ii) transfer such Note by book-entry transfer, in either case, to the Issuers, the Depositary, if applicable, or the Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the second Business Day preceding the Asset Sale Purchase Date or comply with Applicable Procedures for such tender;

(7) that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their tendered Notes and their election to require the Issuers to purchase such Notes if the Issuers, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives at the address specified in the notice, not later than the expiration of the Asset Sale Offer Period, a facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Notes the Holder tendered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its tendered Notes and its election to have such Note purchased or the Holder complies with the Applicable Procedures for such withdrawal;

(8) that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness surrendered by the holders thereof exceeds the Asset Sale Offer Amount, then the Notes to be repurchased shall be selected in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed or, if the Notes are not listed but are in global form, then by lot or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of DTC or, if the Notes are not listed and not in global form on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee shall deem to be fair and appropriate, and the Issuers shall select Pari Passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis on the basis of the aggregate accreted value or principal amount of tendered Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness, although no Note having a principal amount of $2,000 (with respect to Notes) shall be purchased in part; and

59

(9) that Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part shall be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer) representing the same Indebtedness to the extent not repurchased; provided that if, following repurchase of a portion of a Note, the remaining principal amount of such Note outstanding immediately after such repurchase would be less than $2,000, then the portion of such Note so repurchased shall be reduced so that the remaining principal amount of such Note outstanding immediately after such repurchase is $2,000.

The notice, if sent in a manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. If (A) the notice is sent in a manner herein provided and (B) any Holder fails to receive such notice or a Holder receives such notice but it is defective, such Holder’s failure to receive such notice or such defect shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the purchase of the Notes as to all other Holders that properly received such notice without defect.

(e) On or before the Asset Sale Purchase Date, the Issuers shall, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, by lot or on a pro rata basis or by such other method as the Trustee shall deem to be fair and appropriate, as applicable, the Asset Sale Offer Amount of Notes or portions thereof (and, if applicable, Pari Passu Indebtedness or portions thereof) validly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer, or if less than the Asset Sale Offer Amount of Notes (and Pari Passu Indebtedness, as applicable) has been validly tendered and not validly withdrawn, all Notes so tendered and not validly withdrawn, in the case of the Notes, in integral multiples of $1,000; provided that if, following repurchase of a portion of a Note, the remaining principal amount of such Note outstanding immediately after such repurchase would be less than $2,000, then the portion of such Note so repurchased shall be reduced so that the remaining principal amount of such Note outstanding immediately after such repurchase is $2,000. The Issuers shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee the Notes so accepted and an Officer’s Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions thereof so accepted and that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Issuers in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.09 and, in the case of Pari Passu Indebtedness, shall comply with the applicable procedures in this Indenture or other agreement governing such Pari Passu Indebtedness.

(f) The Issuers shall promptly, but in no event later than five Business Days after termination of the Asset Sale Offer Period, mail or deliver to the Paying Agent to remit to each tendering Holder or to the holder or lender of Pari Passu Indebtedness, as the case may be, an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes or Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn by such Holder or such holder or lender, as the case may be, and accepted by the Issuers for purchase, and, if less than all of the Notes tendered are purchased pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer, the Issuers shall promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon delivery of an Authentication Order from the Issuer, shall authenticate and mail or deliver (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) such new Note to such Holder (it being understood that, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, no Opinion of Counsel or Officer’s Certificate shall be required for the Trustee to authenticate and mail or deliver such new Note) in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered; provided that each such new Note shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Issuers to the Holder thereof. The Issuers or Parent shall publicly announce the results of the Asset Sale Offer on the Asset Sale Purchase Date.

78

(c) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.10, in the event that an item of proposed Indebtedness or preferred stock meets the criteria of more than one of the categories described in Section 4.10(b)(1) through Section 4.10(b)(27), or is entitled to be incurred or issued pursuant to Section 4.10(a), the Issuers shall be permitted to classify such item of Indebtedness or preferred stock on the date of its incurrence or issuance, as applicable, or later reclassify (based on circumstances existing at the time of such reclassification), all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness or preferred stock, in any manner that complies with this Section 4.10; provided, that all Indebtedness outstanding on the Issue Date under the Credit Agreement, if any, shall be deemed incurred under Section 4.10(b)(1) and not Section 4.10(a) or Section 4.10(b)(5) and may not later be reclassified.

(d) For purposes of Section 4.10(b)(21) and (22), the existence of a Permitted Lien on Equity Interests, Indebtedness or preferred stock shall not be considered a transfer until the Equity Interests, Indebtedness or preferred stock securing such Permitted Lien has been foreclosed upon.

(e) For the avoidance of doubt, the outstanding principal amount of any particular Indebtedness shall be counted only once and any obligations arising under any Guarantee, Lien, letter of credit or similar instrument supporting such Indebtedness shall not be double counted.

(f) For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness or preferred stock, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount or liquidation value of Indebtedness or preferred stock denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness or preferred stock was incurred or issued, in the case of term Indebtedness or preferred stock, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit Indebtedness; provided that if such Indebtedness or preferred stock is incurred or issued to refinance other Indebtedness or preferred stock denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount or liquidation value of such refinancing does not exceed the principal amount or liquidation value of such Indebtedness or preferred stock being refinanced, plus the amount of all fees, commissions, discounts and expenses, including premiums and defeasance, discharge, redemption, repurchase, repayment, tender, consent and similar costs, underwriting discounts and fees and original issue discount in connection therewith.

(g) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.10, the maximum amount of Indebtedness or preferred stock that the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries may incur or issue pursuant to this Section 4.10 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies. The principal amount or liquidation value of any Indebtedness incurred or preferred stock issued to refinance other Indebtedness or preferred stock, if incurred or issued in a different currency from the Indebtedness or preferred stock being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such refinancing is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

79

Section 4.11 Asset Sales.

(a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless:

(1) the Issuer or any such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at the time of, or prior to, the Asset Sale (with consideration that is to be paid in future installments or otherwise on a deferred basis or over time, in each case, for up to 12 months, being counted for purposes of this Section 4.11(a)(1) and Section 4.11(a)(2) as received at the time of the Asset Sale) at least equal to the Fair Market Value (such Fair Market Value to be determined on the date of contractually agreeing to such Asset Sale) of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of; and

(2) at least 75% of the consideration received or to be received in the Asset Sale by the Issuer or any such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of cash or Marketable Securities. For purposes of this Section 4.11(a)(2) only, each of the following shall be deemed to be cash:

(a) Cash Equivalents;

(b) any Indebtedness (other than any Subordinated Indebtedness) of the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries or other liabilities, as shown on the Issuer’s most recent consolidated balance sheet or in the notes thereto or as would be reflected on a balance sheet or in the notes thereto (other than liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Note Guarantee), of the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries, in each case, that are actually assumed by the transferee in such Asset Sale or that otherwise constitute consideration for such Asset Sale (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any liabilities of a Restricted Subsidiary that ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such Asset Sale); provided that the applicable Issuer or Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, making the Asset Sale is unconditionally released from its obligations with respect to such Indebtedness or other liabilities or is indemnified against further liability with respect to such Indebtedness or other liabilities;

(c) any securities, notes or other obligations or assets received by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary from the transferee in such Asset Sale that within 180 days after the consummation of such Asset Sale are converted by the recipient into (or with respect to which the recipient receives payments of) cash or Cash Equivalents, to the extent of the cash or Cash Equivalents received in that conversion or payment;

80

(d) the Fair Market Value of any property or other assets (including Equity Interests of any Person that will be a Restricted Subsidiary following receipt thereof) received or to be received that are used or useful in a Permitted Business or other use referred to in clauses (2), (3) and (4) of Section 4.11(b); and

(e) any Designated Non-Cash Consideration received or to be received by the Issuer or any such Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate Fair Market Value, taken together with all other Designated Non-Cash Consideration pursuant to this clause (e) that is at the time outstanding, not to exceed the greater of $30.0 million and 1.0% of Consolidated Tangible Assets at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-Cash Consideration, with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-Cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value.

(b) Within 15 months after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, the applicable Issuer or Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, may apply an amount equal to such Net Proceeds at its option:

(1) to permanently repay or prepay

(a) Obligations under any Indebtedness (other than Disqualified Stock or Subordinated Indebtedness) of the Issuer or the Restricted Subsidiaries secured by Permitted Liens (whose commitments shall be correspondingly reduced permanently upon such repayment or prepayment), other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or another Restricted Subsidiary;

(b) Obligations under (i) the Notes or (ii) any Indebtedness of the Issuer or the Restricted Subsidiaries that ranks pari passu in right of payment with the Notes or of a Guarantor that ranks pari passu in right of payment with such Guarantor’s Note Guarantee (all such Indebtedness, “Pari Passu Indebtedness”), other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or another Restricted Subsidiary; provided that if the Issuer or any such Restricted Subsidiary shall so repay or prepay any such other Pari Passu Indebtedness, the Issuers shall reduce (or offer to reduce) Obligations under the Notes on a pro rata basis (based on the amount so applied to such repayments or prepayments) by, at the Issuer’s option, (A) redeeming Notes as described under Section 3.07, (B) making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for an Asset Sale Offer) to all Holders to purchase their Notes for cash at a price equal to at least 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the amount of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but excluding, the applicable date of repurchase (and any such Net Proceeds remaining following the consummation of such offer will not constitute Excess Proceeds) or (C) purchasing Notes through privately negotiated transactions or open market purchases, in a manner that complies with this Indenture and applicable securities laws; or

81

(c) Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary that is a Non-Guarantor, other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or another Restricted Subsidiary;

(2) to acquire (x) all or substantially all of the assets of a Person engaged in a Permitted Business or (y) any Equity Interests of a Person engaged in a Permitted Business, if, after giving effect to any such acquisition of such Equity Interests, such Person is or becomes a Restricted Subsidiary;

(3) to make a capital expenditure;

(4) to acquire Additional Assets or make a Permitted Business Investment; or

(5) in any combination of applications described in clause (1), (2), (3) or (4) of this Section 4.11(b);

provided that in the case of clause (2), (3) or (4) (or clause (5) solely as it relates to clause (2), (3) or (4) of this Section 4.11(b)), a binding commitment to acquire the assets of a Permitted Business, or Equity Interests of a Person engaged in a Permitted Business, make such capital expenditure or acquire Additional Assets (or improve or develop existing assets) to be used in a Permitted Business shall be treated as a permitted application of an amount of Net Proceeds as of the date of such commitment so long as the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary enters into such commitment with the good faith expectation that such amount of Net Proceeds will be applied to satisfy such commitment within 180 days after the date of such commitment (an “Acceptable Commitment”) and, in the event any Acceptable Commitment is later cancelled or terminated for any reason before such amount of Net Proceeds is applied in connection therewith, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary enters into another Acceptable Commitment (a “Second Commitment”) within 180 days after the date of such cancellation or termination, it being understood that if a Second Commitment is later cancelled or terminated for any reason before such amount of Net Proceeds is applied (and provided that the 15-month period after receipt of such Net Proceeds has expired), then such amount of Net Proceeds shall constitute Excess Proceeds.

(c) Any amounts of Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in Section 4.11(b) shall constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $40.0 million, within ten Business Days thereafter, the Issuers shall make an Asset Sale Offer to all Holders, with a copy to the Trustee, and, if the Issuers elect (or are required by the terms of Pari Passu Indebtedness), all holders of Pari Passu Indebtedness (an “Asset Sale Offer”), to purchase the maximum aggregate principal amount of Notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness (if applicable) in denominations of $2,000 principal amount and multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof (or as otherwise specified in such Pari Passu Indebtedness), that may be purchased with an amount equal to the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount not less than 100% of the principal amount thereof (or at such lesser price as otherwise specified in such Pari Passu Indebtedness, or, in the case of Pari Passu Indebtedness represented by securities sold at a discount, not less than the amount of the accreted value thereof at such time), plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the

82

purchase date, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture (or, in the case of Pari Passu Indebtedness, the agreement governing such Pari Passu Indebtedness). In the event that the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary prepays any Pari Passu Indebtedness that is outstanding under a revolving credit or other committed loan facility pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary shall cause the related loan commitment to be reduced in an amount equal to the principal amount so prepaid.

After the completion of an Asset Sale, the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries may make an Asset Sale Offer prior to the time they are required to do so by the second sentence of Section 4.11(c). If the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary complete an Asset Sale Offer with respect to any Net Proceeds, the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries shall be deemed to have complied with this Section 4.11 with respect to the application of such Net Proceeds (regardless of how much principal amount of Notes or Pari Passu Indebtedness (as applicable) is tendered into such offer) and the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset to zero, and any such Net Proceeds remaining after completion of such Asset Sale Offer may be used by the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries for any purpose not prohibited by this Indenture. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by Holders thereof and Pari Passu Indebtedness (if applicable) surrendered by holders thereof or lenders thereunder, collectively, exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Notes to be repurchased shall be selected in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed or, if the Notes are not listed but are in global form, then by lot or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of DTC or, if the Notes are not listed and not in global form, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee shall deem to be fair and appropriate, and the Issuers shall select Pari Passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis on the basis of the aggregate accreted value or principal amount of tendered Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness (to the extent not prohibited by the terms of such Pari Passu Indebtedness). Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero.

Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds pursuant to this Section 4.11, the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries may apply such Net Proceeds temporarily to reduce Indebtedness outstanding under a revolving credit facility or otherwise invest or use such Net Proceeds in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture.

The Issuers shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with each repurchase of Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 4.11 or Section 3.09, the Issuers shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached their obligations under this Section 4.11 or Section 3.09 by virtue of such compliance.

83

(14) transactions between or among the Issuer and any of the Restricted Subsidiaries and any Person (other than an Affiliated Homebuilder) a director of which is also a director of the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries or Parent; provided that such director abstains from voting as a director of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, on such transaction;

Section 4.13 Liens.

(a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries to, create, incur, assume or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any Lien (a “Triggering Lien”) of any kind (other than Permitted Liens) securing Indebtedness upon any of their property or assets (including Capital Stock of Restricted Subsidiaries), now owned or hereafter acquired, or any income or profits therefrom unless all payments due under this Indenture and the Notes (and, in the case of Liens of a Guarantor, under the Note Guarantee of such Guarantor) are secured on an equal and ratable basis (or on a superior basis, in the event the other Indebtedness is Subordinated Indebtedness) with the obligations so secured until such time as such obligations are no longer secured by a Triggering Lien.

(b) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.13, a Lien securing an item of Indebtedness need not be permitted solely by reference to the above paragraph or to one category (or portion thereof) of Permitted Liens described in clauses (a) through (hh) of the definition of “Permitted Liens” but may be permitted in part under any combination thereof, whether at the time of initial incurrence or as later reclassified.

(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 or in the form of common equity of the Issuers, the payment of dividends on preferred stock in the form of additional shares of preferred stock of the same class, accretion of original issue discount 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 described in the definition of “Indebtedness.”

Section 4.14 Permitted Business Activities.

(a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries to, engage in any business other than Permitted Businesses, except to such extent as would not be material to the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole; it being understood that the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be in compliance with this Section 4.14(a) if the Issuer or the Restricted Subsidiaries acquire another Person that is primarily engaged in Permitted Businesses or acquire business operations that primarily consist of Permitted Businesses and continue to operate such acquired Person’s operations or such acquired business operations, as the case may be.

87

(b) The Co-Issuer may not hold any assets (other than its equity capital), become liable for any material obligations or engage in any business activities; provided that it may be a co-obligor, co-issuer or guarantor with respect to the Notes, the Credit Agreement or any other Indebtedness issued by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary that is not prohibited from being incurred by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary under Section 4.10 and may engage in any activities related thereto or necessary in connection therewith. Other than as a result of a transaction where a corporate wholly owned Restricted Subsidiary expressly assumes the applicable obligations or there is at least one corporate obligor on the Notes, in each case, pursuant to a transaction that complies with the requirements of Section 5.01(b), including clause (1) thereto, the Co-Issuer shall be a wholly owned Subsidiary of the Issuer at all times.

Section 4.15 Offer to Repurchase upon Change of Control.

(a) If a Change of Control occurs after the Issue Date, subject to Section 4.15(e), the Issuers shall make an offer to purchase all of the Notes pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”) at a price in cash (the “Change of Control Payment”) equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of purchase, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date. Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Issuers shall give notice of such Change of Control Offer electronically or by first class mail, with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder to the address of such Holder appearing in the security register or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of DTC, with the following information:

(1) that a Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.15 and that all Notes properly tendered (and not properly withdrawn) pursuant to such Change of Control Offer shall be accepted for payment by the Issuers;

(2) the purchase price and the purchase date, which will be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered, subject to the last sentence of Section 4.15(f) in the event that the Change of Control Offer is made in advance of a Change of Control, conditional upon such Change of Control (the date of payment and purchase for Notes pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, the “Change of Control Payment Date”);

(3) that any Note not properly tendered (or properly tendered but properly withdrawn and not properly retendered) will remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest;

(4) that, unless the Issuers default in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, all Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer will cease to accrue interest on the Change of Control Payment Date;

(5) that holders electing to have any Notes purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender such Notes, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of such Notes completed, to the Paying Agent specified in the notice at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date or comply with Applicable Procedures for such tender;

88

(6) that holders shall be entitled to withdraw their tendered Notes and their election to require the Issuers to purchase such Notes; provided that the Paying Agent receives, not later than the expiration time of the Change of Control Offer, a facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder of the Notes, the principal amount of Notes tendered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its tendered Notes and its election to have such Notes purchased or the holder complies with Applicable Procedures for such withdrawal;

(7) that if a Holder requests that only a portion of a note held by it be purchased, such Holder shall be issued (or shall receive by book entry) a new note equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the note surrendered; provided that the unpurchased portion of such note must be equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof;

(8) if such notice is delivered prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control, a statement that the Change of Control Offer is conditional on the occurrence of such Change of Control; and

(9) the other instructions, as determined by the Issuers, consistent with this Section 4.15, that a Holder must follow.

While the notes are in global form, if the Issuers make a Change of Control Offer, a holder may exercise its option to elect for the purchase of the notes (and any election to withdraw its tendered notes) through the facilities of DTC, subject to DTC’s rules, regulations and Applicable Procedures.

(b) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuers shall, to the extent lawful:

(1) accept for payment all notes or portions of notes properly tendered (and not properly withdrawn) pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

(2) unless deposited before the Change of Control Payment Date (but in any case, prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the Change of Control Payment Date), deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all notes or portions of notes accepted for payment; and

(3) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee (if not previously delivered to the Trustee) the notes accepted for payment together with an Officer’s Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of notes or portions of notes being purchased by the Issuers.

89

(c) The Paying Agent shall promptly remit to each Holder of Notes or portion of notes accepted for payment the Change of Control Payment for such Notes or portion thereof, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order from the Issuers, shall promptly authenticate and deliver (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any (it being understood that, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, no Opinion of Counsel or Officer’s Certificate shall be required for the Trustee to authenticate and mail or deliver such new Note); provided that each new Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Issuers or Parent shall publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

(d) If the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after the relevant Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, the accrued and unpaid interest, if any, shall be paid on such Interest Payment Date to the Person in whose name the Note is registered at the close of business on such Record Date, and no additional interest shall be payable to Holders whose Notes are tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer.

(e) The Issuers shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if (1) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuers and purchases all Notes properly tendered (and not properly withdrawn) under the Change of Control Offer in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Change of Control Offer or (2) a notice of redemption that is or has become unconditional (other than with respect to any conditions relating to the actual occurrence of such Change of Control) has been given pursuant to this Indenture as described in Section 3.07 unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditional upon such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of the making of such Change of Control Offer. If such a conditional Change of Control Offer is made, the Change of Control Payment Date may be delayed, in the Issuers’ discretion, until such time as such Change of Control shall have occurred, or if such Change of Control shall not have occurred by the applicable Change of Control Payment Date (whether the original Change of Control Payment Date or the Change of Control Payment Date so delayed), then such Change of Control Offer may be rescinded by the Issuers.

(g) In the event that Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes accept a Change of Control Offer and the Issuers (or any third party making such Change of Control Offer in lieu of the Issuers as described in this Section 4.15) purchase all of the Notes properly tendered (and not properly withdrawn) under the Change of Control Offer by such holders, the Issuers shall have the right, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, but not more than 30 days following the Change of Control Payment Date of the Change of Control Offer described above, to redeem all of the Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase pursuant to such Change of Control Offer at a redemption price equal to the Change of Control Payment (subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date that is on or prior to the applicable redemption date).

90

(h) The Issuers shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 4.15, the Issuers shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached their obligations under this Section 4.15 by virtue of the conflict.

(i) Other than as specifically provided in this Section 4.15, any purchase pursuant to this Section 4.15 shall be made pursuant to Sections 3.02, 3.05 and 3.06.

Section 4.16 Future Guarantors.

(a) After the Issue Date, the Issuer shall cause each Restricted Subsidiary that Guarantees obligations of the Issuer or another Guarantor under, or is a borrower or obligor under, the Credit Agreement or any other syndicated loan facility or capital markets debt (in each case, other than (x) Non-Recourse Debt, (y) Acquired Debt (other than Acquired Debt issued in connection with, or in contemplation of, any other Person merging, consolidating or amalgamating with or into, being acquired or becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of, the Issuer or transferring assets to the Issuer) and (z) guarantees of such Acquired Debt or any other Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary to the extent a Guarantee is required as a result of the assumption by either the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of such Acquired Debt pursuant to the terms of such Acquired Debt (collectively, “Guarantor Obligation Debt”)) to execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture to this Indenture substantially in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto within 30 days after the giving of such Guarantee of, or becoming a borrower or obligor under, such Guarantor Obligation Debt pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary will irrevocably and unconditionally (subject to Section 10.06(a)) guarantee, on a joint and several basis, the full and prompt payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest in respect of the Notes on a senior basis and all other obligations under this Indenture. The Note Guarantee of any Guarantor shall be automatically released and discharged in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.06(a).

(b) The Issuer at any time at its sole option may cause any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor to become a Guarantor by executing a supplemental indenture to this Indenture.

Section 4.17 Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

The Board of Directors of Parent may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default. If a Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments owned by the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and will reduce the Cumulative Buildup Basket or amounts available under one or more clauses of the definition of Permitted Investments or one or more clauses of Section 4.08(b), as determined by the Issuer. That designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of

91

an Unrestricted Subsidiary. The Board of Directors of Parent may redesignate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if (i) that redesignation would not cause a Default and (ii) all Liens and Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary outstanding immediately after such redesignation would, if incurred at such time, have been permitted to be incurred (and shall be deemed to have been incurred) under this Indenture.

Any such designation or redesignation shall be evidenced by filing with the Trustee a certified copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors of Parent giving effect to such designation or redesignation and an Officer’s Certificate certifying that such designation or redesignation complied with the preceding conditions and was permitted by Section 4.08

Section 4.18 Effectiveness of Covenants.

(a) At any time after the Notes have received Investment Grade Ratings from two Rating Agencies (a “Covenant Suspension Event”), upon notice by the Issuers to the Trustee certifying that a Covenant Suspension Event has occurred and that at the time of the giving of such notice no Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture (a “Covenant Suspension Event Notice”), then, beginning on the day such notice is given (the “Suspension Date”) and continuing until the Reversion Date (as defined below), the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be subject to the following Sections of this Indenture (collectively, the “Suspended Covenants”):

(1) Section 4.08;

(2) Section 4.09;

(3) Section 4.10;

(4) Section 4.11;

(5) Section 4.12;

(6) Section 4.14;

(7) Section 4.16 (but only with respect to any Restricted Subsidiary that would otherwise be required to become a Guarantor after the Suspension Date and prior to the Reversion Date); and

(8) Section 5.01(a)(4).

(b) If at any time the Notes cease to have Investment Grade Ratings from two Rating Agencies, then the Suspended Covenants will thereafter be reinstated as if such covenants had never been suspended (the “Reversion Date”) and be applicable pursuant to the terms of this Indenture (including in connection with performing any calculation or assessment to determine compliance with the terms of this Indenture), unless and until a subsequent Covenant Suspension Event occurs and a Covenant Suspension Event Notice is delivered to the Trustee (in which event the Suspended Covenants shall no longer be in effect unless and until the Notes cease to have such Investment Grade Ratings from two Rating Agencies); provided, however, that no

92

Default or Event of Default or breach of any kind shall be deemed to exist under this Indenture or the Notes (or any Note Guarantee) with respect to the Suspended Covenants based on, and none of the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries shall bear any liability under the Suspended Covenants for, any actions taken or events occurring during the Suspension Period (as defined below), or any actions taken at any time pursuant to any contractual obligation arising prior to the Reversion Date, regardless of whether such actions or events would have been permitted if the applicable Suspended Covenants remained in effect during such period. The period of time between the date of suspension of the covenants and the Reversion Date is referred to herein as the “Suspension Period.”

(c) On the Reversion Date, all Indebtedness incurred or preferred stock that is Disqualified Stock issued during the Suspension Period will be classified as having been incurred or issued pursuant to Section 4.10(a) or one of the clauses set forth in Section 4.10(b) (to the extent such Indebtedness or preferred stock that is Disqualified Stock would be permitted to be incurred or issued thereunder as of the Reversion Date and after giving effect to the Indebtedness or preferred stock incurred or issued prior to the Suspension Period and outstanding on the Reversion Date). To the extent such Indebtedness or preferred stock that is Disqualified Stock would not be so permitted to be incurred or issued pursuant to Section 4.10(a) or Section 4.10(b) such Indebtedness or preferred stock that is Disqualified Stock will be deemed to have been Existing Indebtedness, so that it is classified as permitted under Section 4.10(b)(2). Calculations made after the Reversion Date of the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 4.08 will be made as though Section 4.08 had been in effect since the Issue Date and throughout the Suspension Period. Accordingly, Restricted Payments made during the Suspension Period and not otherwise permitted under Section 4.08(b) will reduce the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 4.08(a). During the Suspension Period, any obligation to grant Note Guarantees with respect to any Restricted Subsidiary that would otherwise be required to become a Guarantor after the Suspension Date and prior to the Reversion Date shall be suspended. Such obligation to grant Note Guarantees shall be reinstated upon the Reversion Date, if applicable.

(d) During the Suspension Period, no Restricted Subsidiary may be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

(e) The Trustee shall have no obligation to independently determine or verify if a Covenant Suspension Event has occurred or notify the holders of the continuance and termination of any Suspension Period, or the occurrence of a Reversion Date. The Issuers shall provide written notice to the Trustee of the occurrence of any Reversion Date. The Trustee may provide a copy of any such notice to any holder of Notes upon request.

and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days.

(b) In the event of a declaration of acceleration of the Notes because an Event of Default described in Section 6.01(a)(5) has occurred and is continuing, the declaration of acceleration of the Notes shall be automatically annulled if the default triggering such Event of Default pursuant to Section 6.01(a)(5) shall be remedied or cured by the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries or waived by the holders of the relevant Indebtedness within 60 days after the declaration of acceleration with respect thereto and if (i) the annulment of the acceleration of the Notes would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (ii) any other existing Events of Default, except nonpayment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes that became due solely because of the acceleration of the Notes, have been cured or waived and all outstanding amounts owing to the Trustee have been paid.

Section 6.02 Acceleration.

(a) If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(8) or Section 6.01(a)(9)) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee by written notice to the Issuer, specifying the Event of Default, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Upon the effectiveness of such a declaration, such principal, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, shall be due and payable immediately.

(b) If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(8) or Section 6.01(a)(9) occurs and is continuing, the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes shall become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders.

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, premium, if any, and 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 of a Note 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. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

Section 6.04 Waiver of Past Defaults.

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes by notice to the Issuers and the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, rescind an acceleration or waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under this Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or premium, if any, on, or the principal of, the Notes if (i) the rescission or waiver of the acceleration of the Notes would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (ii) all existing Events of Default, except nonpayment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes that became due solely because of the acceleration of the Notes, have been cured or waived and all outstanding amounts owing to the Trustee have been paid.

99

Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

If a Default is deemed to occur solely because a Default (the “Initial Default”) already existed, and such Initial Default is subsequently cured and is not continuing, the Default or Event of Default resulting solely because the Initial Default existed shall be deemed cured, and shall be deemed annulled, waived and rescinded without any further action required.

Section 6.05 Control by Majority.

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee pursuant to this Indenture. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture, that may involve the Trustee in personal liability, or that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders of Notes (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not any such directions are unduly prejudicial to such Holders). The Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction. However, the Trustee will not be under any obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under this Indenture at the request or direction of any Holders unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it against any loss, fee, damage, liability, cost or expense (including attorneys’ fees, expenses and court costs).

Section 6.06 Limitation on Suits.

Subject to Section 6.07, no Holder may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless:

(1) such ▇▇▇▇▇▇ has previously given a Responsible Officer of the Trustee notice that an Event of Default is continuing;

(2) Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes have requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

(3) such Holders have offered the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against any loss, fee, damage, liability, cost or expense (including attorneys’ fees, expenses and court costs);

(4) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, fee, damage, liability, cost or expense (including attorneys’ fees, expenses and court costs); and

100

(5) Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period.

A Holder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder, it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not any actions or forbearances by a Holder are unduly prejudicial to other Holders.

Section 6.07 Rights of Holders to Receive Payment.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, without the consent of each Holder of Notes affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder) make any changes in the contractual right of any Holder of the Notes expressly set forth in this Indenture (i) to receive payment in respect of the principal of, or interest on such Holder’s Notes on or after the due dates thereof or (ii) to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Notes.

Section 6.08 Collection Suit by Trustee.

If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(1) or (2) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer and any other obligor on the Notes for the whole amount of principal of, premium, if any, and interest remaining unpaid on the Notes, together with interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and its agents and counsel.

Section 6.09 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 Issuer, the Co-Issuer, any Guarantors, 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 6.10 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 is, to the extent permitted by law, 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.

101

Section 6.11 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 6 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.

Section 6.12 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

The Trustee may file proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of each of the Trustee, their respective agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuers (or any other obligor upon the Notes, including any Guarantors), its creditors or its property and is entitled and empowered to vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar official and participate as a member in any official committee of creditors appointed in such matter and to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims. Any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such 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 to each of them for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and their respective agents and counsel, and any other amounts due to the Trustee or Agent hereunder. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, their respective agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee or Agent hereunder out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

Section 6.13 Priorities.

Any money or property collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article 6, and after an Event of Default any money or other property distributable in respect of the Issuers’ or Guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture, shall be paid out or distributed in the following order:

102

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

(3) to the Issuers or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct, including any Guarantor, if applicable.

The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section 6.13. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this Section 6.13, the Trustee shall cause notice of such record date and payment date to be given to the Issuer and to each Holder in the manner set forth in Section 12.01.

Section 6.14 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, suffered or omitted by it as the Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in such 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 and expenses, 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 6.14 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 then outstanding Notes.

Section 7.06 Limitation on Trustee’s Liability.

Except as provided in this Article, in accepting the trusts hereby created, the Trustee is acting solely as Trustee hereunder and not in its individual capacity and, except as provided in this Article, all Persons having any claim against the Trustee by reason of the transactions contemplated by this Indenture or any Note shall look only to the Issuer for payment or satisfaction thereof.

Section 7.07 Compensation and Indemnity.

(a) The Issuers and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall pay to the Trustee (acting in any capacity hereunder) from time to time such compensation for its services as shall be agreed to in writing from time to time by the Issuers, the Guarantors and the Trustee. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuers shall reimburse the Trustee (acting in any capacity hereunder) upon request for all reasonable 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 (or any Agent’s) agents, counsel, accountants and experts. The Issuers and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the Trustee (acting in any capacity hereunder), their agents, representatives, officers, directors, employees and attorneys against any and all loss, liability, damage, claim (whether asserted by the Issuers, the Guarantors, a Holder or any other Person) or expense (including reasonable compensation and expenses and disbursements of the Trustee’s counsel and court costs), fee, or cost arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this Indenture and the performance of its duties, or in connection with the enforcement of any rights hereunder, or arising out of or in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its rights or powers hereunder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and court costs incurred in connection with any action, claim or suit brought to enforce the Trustee’s right to compensation, reimbursement or indemnification. The Trustee or Agent, as the case maybe, shall notify the Issuers promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by a Trustee or Agent, as the case maybe, to so notify the Issuers shall not relieve the Issuers of its obligations hereunder. The Issuers shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall provide reasonable cooperation in such defense. The Trustee or Agent, as the case maybe, may have separate counsel of its selection and the Issuers shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel reasonably acceptable to the Issuers; provided, however, that the Issuers shall not be required to pay such fees and expenses if the Issuers assume such defense unless there is a conflict of interest between the Issuers and the Trustee in connection with such defense as determined by the Trustee in consultation with counsel or if there are additional or separate defenses available to the Trustee that are not available to the Issuers and the Issuers are unable to assert any such defense on the Trustee’s behalf. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuers need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability, damage, claim or expense incurred by the Trustee through its own willful misconduct or negligence as finally adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction.

108

(b) To secure the payment obligations of the Issuers and the Guarantors hereunder, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, in its capacity as Trustee, other than money or property held in trust to pay principal of and interest, if any, on particular Notes.

(c) The Issuers’ obligations under this Article 7 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee and the discharge of this Indenture. When the Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(7) with respect to the Issuer, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under the Bankruptcy Law.

(d) “Trustee” for the purposes of this Section 7.07 shall include any predecessor Trustee and the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder and each agent, custodian and other person employed to act hereunder; provided, however, that the negligence or willful misconduct of any Trustee hereunder shall not affect the rights of any other Trustee hereunder.

Section 7.08 Replacement of Trustee.

(a) The Trustee may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ prior notice of such resignation to the Issuers and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so notifying the Issuer. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Issuers in writing. The Issuers shall remove the Trustee if:

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

(2) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law;

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

(4) the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

(b) If the Trustee resigns or has been removed by the Holders, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes may appoint a successor Trustee. Otherwise, if the Trustee resigns or is removed, or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. If no successor is so appointed, the Trustee, at expense of the Issuers, may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the successor Trustee to replace it with another successor Trustee appointed by the Issuer.

ARTICLE 8

LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

Section 8.01 Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

The Issuers may, at their option and at any time, elect to have either Section 8.02 or Section 8.03 applied to all outstanding Notes (and the Note Guarantees) upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article 8.

Section 8.02 Legal Defeasance and Discharge.

(a) Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the Issuers and the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes and the Note Guarantees, as applicable, on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (“Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuers shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in Section 8.02(a)(1) and (2), and to have satisfied all of their other obligations under the Notes and this Indenture, including that of the Guarantors (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuers, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:

(1) the rights of Holders to receive payments in respect of the principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on, such Notes when such payments are due from the trust created pursuant to this Indenture referred to in Section 8.04;

(2) the Issuers’ obligations with respect to the Notes concerning issuing temporary notes, registration of Notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for security payments held in trust;

(3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee, and the Issuers’ (and the Guarantors’) obligations in connection therewith; and

(4) this Article 8.

111

(b) Following the Issuer’s exercise of its Legal Defeasance option, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default. If the Issuers exercise their Legal Defeasance option, the Note Guarantees in effect at such time shall automatically terminate.

(c) Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Issuers may exercise their option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of their option under Section 8.03.

Section 8.03 Covenant Defeasance.

Upon the Issuers’ exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Issuers and the Restricted Subsidiaries shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, be released from their obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 3.09, 4.03, 4.04, 4.06, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.14, 4.15, 4.16, 4.17 and Section 5.01(a)(4) with respect to the outstanding Notes, and the Guarantors shall be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all Note Guarantees, on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied (“Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such enumerated Sections, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to this Indenture and the outstanding Notes, the Issuers may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such enumerated Section, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such enumerated Section or by reason of any reference in any such enumerated Section to any other provision herein or in any other document, and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Issuers’ exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, Sections 6.01(a)(3) and 6.01(a)(4) (but, in either case, solely for failure to comply with covenants or portions thereof that are subject to Covenant Defeasance), and Sections 6.01(a)(5), 6.01(a)(6), 6.01(a)(7) and, with respect to the Issuers’ Subsidiaries, 6.01(a)(8) and 6.01(a)(9), in each case, shall not constitute Events of Default.

Section 8.04 Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance.

(a) The following shall be the conditions to the exercise of either the Legal Defeasance option under Section 8.02 or the Covenant Defeasance option under Section 8.03 with respect to the Notes:

(1) the Issuers must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, for the benefit of the Holders, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination of cash in U.S. dollars, and non-callable Government Securities, in amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion or

112

based on the report of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants in the United States, to pay the principal of, and interest and premium, if any, on, the outstanding Notes on the stated date for payment thereof or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Issuers must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to such stated date for payment or to a particular redemption date (provided that in the case of a defeasance that occurs in connection with a redemption that is to occur on a Redemption Date pursuant to Section 3.07(a), the amount deposited shall be sufficient for purposes of this Indenture to the extent that the amount so deposited with the Trustee is calculated using an amount equal to the Applicable Premium computed using the Treasury Rate as of the second Business Day immediately preceding the date of such deposit with the Trustee).

(2) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuers must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that (a) the Issuers have received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (b) since the Issue Date, 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 and beneficial owners of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will 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 Legal Defeasance had not occurred;

(3) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuers must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that the holders and beneficial owners of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will 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 Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

(4) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of the deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit (or the deposit for other Indebtedness that is concurrently being defeased, discharged, repurchased, repaid or otherwise retired or acquired) and the incurrence of any Lien in respect thereof);

(5) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which, the Issuers or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Issuers or any Guarantor is bound (other than that resulting from borrowing funds to be applied to make such deposit required to effect such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance and any similar (including for a satisfaction and discharge) and substantially concurrent deposit relating to other Indebtedness and, in each case, the granting of Liens in connection therewith and other than any agreement or instrument relating to any other Indebtedness being contemporaneously repaid, redeemed, repurchased, defeased or discharged); and

113

(6) the Issuers must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with.

The Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will be effective on the day on which all the applicable conditions above have been satisfied. Upon compliance with the foregoing, the Trustee, upon request by the Issuers, shall execute proper instrument(s) acknowledging such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

Section 8.05 Deposited Money and Government Securities to Be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions.

(a) Subject to Section 8.06, all money and Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) (which the Trustee shall not be obligated to reinvest) deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 8.04 in respect of the outstanding Notes shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer, Co-Issuer or a Guarantor acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

(b) The Issuers shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders.

(c) Anything in this Article 8 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Issuers from time to time upon the request of the Issuers any money or Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 which, in the opinion or based on the report of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(a)), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

Section 8.06 Repayment to the Issuer.

Subject to any applicable abandoned property law, any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Issuers, in trust for the payment of the principal, premium, if any, or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuers on their request or (if then held by the Issuers) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter look only to the Issuers for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Issuer as Trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease.

114

Section 8.07 Reinstatement.

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or Section 8.03, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Issuer’s and any Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes (and any Note Guarantees) shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or Section 8.03 until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or Section 8.03, as the case may be; provided that, if the Issuers make any payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuers shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

ARTICLE 9

AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER

Section 9.01 Without Consent of Holders.

(a) Notwithstanding Section 9.02, without the consent of any Holder, the Issuers, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture or the Notes (or any Note Guarantee) (and any other documents related thereto):

(1) to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect, mistake or inconsistency;

(2) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes;

(c) After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.01 becomes effective, the Issuer shall send to the Holders of Notes affected thereby a written notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Issuer to send such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amendment, supplement or waiver.

Section 9.02 With Consent of Holders.

(a) Except as provided in Section 9.01 and this Section 9.02, the Issuers, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture and the Notes (and any Note Guarantee) (and any documents related thereto) with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes (including Additional Notes, if any) then outstanding voting as a single class (including consents obtained in connection with a purchase of or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes), and, subject to Section 6.04 and Section 6.07, any existing Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, except a payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with any provision of this Indenture and the Notes (and any Note Guarantees) may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including Additional Notes, if any) voting as a single class (including consents obtained in connection with the purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes). Section 2.08 and Section 2.09 shall determine which Notes are considered to be “outstanding” for the purposes of this Section 9.02.

116

(b) Upon the request of the Issuers, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02 and Section 12.03, the Trustee shall execute such amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or supplemental indenture directly and adversely affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental indenture.

(c) 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, supplement or waiver. It shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

(d) After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Issuer shall send to the Holders of Notes affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Issuer to send such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amendment, supplement or waiver.

(e) Without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder):

(1) reduce the principal amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;

(2) reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note or alter the provisions with respect to the redemption of the Notes (other than provisions relating to repurchase pursuant to Section 3.09, Section 4.11 or Section 4.15 and other than provisions for effecting a redemption that do not reduce the redemption price);

(3) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest, including default interest, on any Note;

(5) make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the Notes;

(6) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the contractual rights of Holders to receive payments of principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on, the Notes (other than provisions relating to the covenants described under Section 3.09, Section 4.11 or Section 4.15 and other than provisions specifying the notice periods for effecting a redemption);

(10) contractually subordinate the Notes (or any related Note Guarantee) to other Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Guarantor, as applicable; or

(11) make any change in the preceding amendment and waiver provisions.

(f) A consent to any amendment, supplement or waiver of this Indenture, the Notes or any Note Guarantee by any Holder given in connection with a tender of such Holder’s Notes shall not be rendered invalid by such tender.

Section 9.03 Revocation and Effect of Consents.

(a) Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the waiver, supplement or amendment becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver that is effective in accordance with this Indenture thereafter binds every Holder.

(b) The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date pursuant to Section 1.04 for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any amendment, supplement or waiver.

Section 9.04 Notation on or Exchange of Notes.

(a) The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated.

ARTICLE 10

NOTE GUARANTEES

Section 10.01 Guarantee.

(a) Subject to this Article 10 (including Section 10.06(a)), each Guarantor hereby, jointly and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally Guarantees, on a senior unsecured basis, to each Holder authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and Agents and their respective successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Issuers hereunder or thereunder, that: (1) the principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other Obligations of the Issuers to the Holders, the Trustee or any Agent hereunder or under the Notes shall be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (2) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same shall be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. Failing payment by the Issuers when due of any amount so Guaranteed or any performance so Guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a Guarantee of payment and not a Guarantee of collection.

(b) The Guarantors hereby agree (subject to Section 10.06(a)) that their obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer or the Co-Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer or the Co-Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer or the Co-Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that this Note Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture, or pursuant to Section 10.06.

119

(c) Each of the Guarantors also agrees, jointly and severally, 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.

(d) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuers, the Guarantors or any custodian, Trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to the Issuers or the Guarantors, any amount paid either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Note Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.

(e) Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations Guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all Obligations Guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (1) the maturity of the Obligations Guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 for the purposes of this Note Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations Guaranteed hereby, and (2) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Note Guarantee.

(f) Each Note Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Issuer of the Co-Issuer for liquidation or reorganization, should the Issuer or the Co-Issuer become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of the Issuer’s or Co-Issuer’s assets, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Notes are, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee on the Notes or this Note Guarantees, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent transfer” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Notes shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

(g) In case any provision of any Note Guarantee shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

(h) Each payment to be made by a Guarantor in respect of a Note Guarantee shall be made without set-off, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any kind or nature.

120

(i) All Guarantors desire to allocate among themselves (collectively, the “Contributing Guarantors”), in a fair and equitable manner, the economic consequences resulting from the performance of their respective obligations arising under this Indenture. Accordingly, in the event any payment or distribution is made on any date by a Guarantor (a “Funding Guarantor”) under its Note Guarantee such that its Aggregate Payments exceed its Fair Share as of such date, such Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each of the other Contributing Guarantors in an amount sufficient to cause each Contributing Guarantor’s Aggregate Payments to equal its Fair Share as of such date. “Fair Share” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (a) the ratio of (i) the Fair Share Contribution Amount with respect to such Contributing Guarantor, to (ii) the aggregate of the Fair Share Contribution Amounts with respect to all Contributing Guarantors, multiplied by (b) the aggregate amount paid or distributed on or before such date by all Funding Guarantors under their respective Note Guarantees in respect of the obligations Guaranteed. “Fair Share Contribution Amount” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, the maximum aggregate amount of the obligations of such Contributing Guarantor under its Note Guarantee that would not render its obligations hereunder or thereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance or financial assistance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or any comparable applicable provisions of state or foreign law; provided that solely for purposes of calculating the Fair Share Contribution Amount with respect to any Contributing Guarantor for purposes of this Section 10.01, any assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor arising by virtue of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification or any rights to or obligations of contribution hereunder shall not be considered as assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor. “Aggregate Payments” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (1) the aggregate amount of all payments and distributions made on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor in respect of its Note Guarantee (including in respect of this Section 10.01), minus (2) the aggregate amount of all payments received on or before such date by such Guarantor from the other Contributing Guarantors as contributions under this Section 10.01. The amounts payable as contributions hereunder shall be determined as of the date on which the related payment or distribution is made by the applicable Funding Guarantor. Each Contributing Guarantor is a third party beneficiary to the contribution agreement set forth in this Section 10.01(i). For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 10.01(i) shall limit or impair, by implication or otherwise, each Guarantor’s obligations under its Note Guarantee.

Section 10.02 Limitation on Guarantor Liability.

Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Note Guarantee of a Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent conveyance, a fraudulent transfer or financial assistance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal, state or foreign law to the extent applicable to any Note Guarantee.

A transferor of a beneficial interest in a Global Note shall deliver to the Registrar a written order given in accordance with the Depositary’s procedures containing information regarding the participant account of such Depositary to be credited with a beneficial interest in such Global Note or another Global Note, and such account shall be credited in accordance with such order with a beneficial interest in the applicable Global Note, and the account of the Person making the transfer shall be debited by an amount equal to the beneficial interest in the Global Note being transferred. Transfers by an owner of a beneficial interest in a Rule 144A Global Note to a transferee who takes delivery of such interest through a Regulation S Global Note, shall be made only upon receipt by the Trustee of a certification in the form provided on the reverse side of the Initial Notes from the transferor to the effect that such transfer is being made in accordance with Regulation S, Rule 144 (if available), or another applicable exemption from registration under the Securities Act. Prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period, transfers of beneficial interests in a Regulation S Global Note may not be made to a U.S. Person or for the account or benefit of a U.S. Person.

(ii) If the proposed transfer is a transfer of a beneficial interest in one Global Note to a beneficial interest in another Global Note, the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of the Global Note to which such interest is being transferred in an amount equal to the principal amount of the interest to be so transferred, and the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and a corresponding decrease in the principal amount of the Global Note from which such interest is being transferred. If the Issuers so request in connection with transfer of a

5

beneficial interest in one Global Note to a beneficial interest in another Global Note, other than a transfer to a beneficial interest in a Rule 144A Global Note, such request for transfer shall be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Issuers as to the compliance with the restrictions set forth in the applicable legend set forth in Section 2.3(d)(i) of this Appendix A.

(iii) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Appendix A (other than the provisions set forth in Section 2.4 of this Appendix A), a Global Note may not be transferred except as a whole and not in part by the Depositary to a nominee of such Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to such Depositary or another nominee of such Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor of such Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary.

(ii) Upon any sale or transfer of a Transfer Restricted Note that is a Definitive Note, the Registrar shall permit the Holder thereof to exchange such Transfer Restricted Note for a Definitive Note that does not bear the Restricted Notes Legend and the Definitive Notes Legend and rescind any restriction on the transfer of such Transfer Restricted Note if the Holder certifies in writing to the Registrar that its request for such

8

exchange was made in reliance on Rule 144 (such certification to be in the form set forth on the reverse side of the Initial Notes). Upon a sale or transfer after the expiration of the Restricted Period of any Note acquired pursuant to Regulation S, all requirements that such Note bear the Restricted Notes Legend shall cease to apply and the requirements requiring any such Initial Note be issued in global form shall continue to apply.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Restricted Notes Legend need not appear on any Additional Note issued under an effective registration statement under the Securities Act.

(e) Exchange from Global Note Bearing Restricted Notes Legend to Global Note Not Bearing Restricted Notes Legend. Upon the Issuers’ satisfaction that the Restricted Notes Legend shall no longer required to bear the Restricted Notes Legend (a “Restricted Global Note”) in order to maintain compliance with the Securities Act, the Issuers shall take the necessary action such that holders of a Restricted Global note may, at the Issuers’ option, automatically exchange into beneficial interests in an Unrestricted Global Note without any action required by or on behalf of the Holder (the “Exchange”) at any time on or after the date that is the 366th calendar day after (1) with respect to Notes issued on the Issue Date, the Issue Date or (2) with respect to Additional Notes, if any, the issue date of such Additional Notes, or, in each case, if such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (the “Exchange Date”). Upon the Issuer’s satisfaction that the Restricted Notes Legend shall no longer be required in order to maintain compliance with the Securities Act, the Issuers shall, at their option, (i) provide written notice to DTC and the Trustee at least 15 calendar days prior to the Exchange Date, instructing DTC to exchange all of the outstanding beneficial interests in a particular Restricted Global Note to the Unrestricted Global Note, (ii) provide prior written notice (the “Exchange Notice”) to each Holder at such Holder’s address appearing in the register of Holders at least 15 calendar days prior to the Exchange Date (the “Notice Date”), which notice must include (w) the Exchange Date, (x) the section of the Indenture pursuant to which the Exchange shall occur, (y) the CUSIP or ISIN number of the Restricted Global Note from which such Holder’s beneficial interests will be transferred and (z) the CUSIP or ISIN number of the Unrestricted Global Note into which such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s beneficial interests will be transferred, and (iii) on or prior to the Exchange Date, deliver to the Trustee for authentication one or more Unrestricted Global Notes, duly executed by the Issuer, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Restricted Global Notes to be exchanged into such Unrestricted Global Notes. At the Issuer’s written request on no less than 5 calendar days’ notice prior to the Notice Date, the Trustee shall deliver, in the Issuers’ name and at their expense, the Exchange Notice to each Holder at such Holder’s address appearing in the register of Holders; provided that the Issuers have delivered to the Trustee the information required to be included in such Exchange Notice.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.3(e), during the 15 calendar day period prior to the Exchange Date, no transfers or exchanges other than pursuant to this Section 2.3(e) shall be permitted without the prior written consent of the Issuers. As a condition to any Exchange, the Issuers shall provide, and the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon, an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Exchange shall be effected in compliance with the Securities Act and that the restrictions on transfer contained herein and in the Restricted Notes Legend shall no longer be required in order to maintain compliance with the Securities Act and that the aggregate principal amount of the particular

9

Restricted Global Note is to be transferred to the particular Unrestricted Global Note by adjustment made on the records of the Trustee, as custodian for the Depositary to reflect the Exchange. Upon such exchange of beneficial interests pursuant to this Section 2.3(e), the aggregate principal amount of the Global Notes shall be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee, as custodian for the Depositary, to reflect the relevant increase or decrease in the principal amount of such Global Note resulting from the applicable exchange. The Restricted Global Note from which beneficial interests are transferred pursuant to an Exchange shall be cancelled following the Exchange.

(f) Cancellation or Adjustment of Global Note. At such time as all beneficial interests in a Global Note have either been exchanged for Definitive Notes, transferred, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, such Global Note shall be returned by the Depositary to the Trustee for cancellation or retained and canceled by the Trustee. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for Definitive Notes, transferred in exchange for an interest in another Global Note, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note shall be reduced and an adjustment shall be made on the books and records of the Trustee (if it is then the Custodian for such Global Note) with respect to such Global Note, by the Trustee or Custodian, to reflect such reduction.

(g) Obligations with Respect to Transfers and Exchanges of Notes.

(i) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Issuers shall execute and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate, Definitive Notes and Global Notes at the Registrar’s request.

(ii) No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuers may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax, assessments, or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes, assessments or similar governmental charge payable upon exchanges pursuant to Sections 2.10, 3.06, 3.09, 4.11, 4.15 and 9.04 of the Indenture).

(iii) Prior to the due presentation for registration of transfer of any Note, the Issuers, the Trustee, the Paying Agents or the Registrars 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 interest on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note is overdue, and none of the Issuers, the Trustee, the Paying Agents or the Registrars shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

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

10

(v) The Registrars and the Trustee may request such evidence as may be reasonably requested by them to determine the identity and signatures of the transferor and the transferee.

(h) No Obligation of the Trustee.

(i) The Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to any beneficial owner of a Global Note, a member of, or a participant in the Depositary or any other Person with respect to the accuracy of the records of the Depositary or its nominees or of any participant or member thereof, with respect to any ownership interest in the Notes or with respect to the delivery to any participant, member, beneficial owner or other Person (other than the Depositary) of any notice (including any notice of redemption or repurchase) or the payment of any amount, under or with respect to such Notes. All notices and communications to be given to the Holders and all payments to be made to Holders under the Notes shall be given or made only to the registered Holders (which shall be the Depositary or its nominee in the case of a Global Note). The rights of beneficial owners in any Global Note shall be exercised only through the Depositary subject to the applicable rules and procedures of the Depositary. The Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the Depositary with respect to its members, participants and any beneficial owners.

(ii) The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under the Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any transfers between or among Depositary participants, members or beneficial owners in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the terms of the Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

(i) Any purported transfer of such note, or any interest therein to a purchaser or transferee that does not comply with the requirements specified in this Section 2.3 shall be of no force and effect and shall be null and void ab initio.

Section 2.4 Definitive Notes.

(a) A Global Note deposited with the Depositary or Custodian pursuant to Section 2.1 of this Appendix A may be transferred to the beneficial owners thereof in the form of Definitive Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Global Note, in exchange for such Global Note, only if such transfer complies with Section 2.3 of this Appendix A and (i) the Depositary notifies the Issuers at any time that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for the Global Notes and a successor depositary is not appointed within 90 days; (ii) the Depositary ceases to be registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act and a successor depositary is not appointed within 90 days; (iii) the Issuers, at their option, notify the Trustee that they elect to cause the issuance of Definitive Notes and any participant requests a Definitive Note in accordance with procedures of the Depositary procedures; or (iv) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Registrar has received a request from the

11

Depositary. In addition, any Affiliate of the Issuers or any Guarantor that is a beneficial owner of all or part of a Global Note may have such Affiliate’s beneficial interest transferred to such Affiliate in the form of a Definitive Note, by providing a written request to the Issuer and the Trustee and such Opinions of Counsel, certificates or other information as may be required by the Indenture or the Issuers or the Trustee. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Appendix A, in no event shall the Regulation S Global Note be exchanged by the Issuers for Definitive Notes prior to (x) the expiration of the Restricted Period and (y) the receipt by the Registrar of any certificates required pursuant to Rule 903(b)(3)(ii)(B) under the Securities Act.

(b) Any Global Note that is transferable to the beneficial owners thereof pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be surrendered by the Depositary to the Trustee, to be so transferred, in whole or from time to time in part, without charge, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, upon such transfer of each portion of such Global Note, an equal aggregate principal amount of Definitive Notes of authorized denominations. Any portion of a Global Note transferred pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be executed, authenticated and delivered only in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000, registered in such names as the Depositary shall direct. Any certificated Initial Note or Additional Note in the form of a Definitive Note delivered in exchange for an interest in the Global Note shall, except as otherwise provided by Section 2.3(d) of this Appendix A, bear the Restricted Notes Legend.

(c) The registered Holder of a Global Note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Agent Members and Persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under the Indenture or the Notes.

(d) In the event of the occurrence of any of the events specified in Section 2.4(a)(i), (ii) or (iii) of this Appendix A, the Issuer shall within a reasonable period make available to the Trustee a reasonable supply of Definitive Notes in fully registered form without interest coupons.
