and/or Subsidiary Guarantor thereunder.
4. EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES
(a) To evidence its Subsidiary Guarantee, the New Subsidiary Guarantor
hereby agrees that a notation of such Subsidiary Guarantee substantially in the
form set forth in Exhibit A to the Indenture shall be endorsed by an officer of
such New Subsidiary Guarantor on each Note authenticated and delivered by the
Trustee after the date hereof.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the New Subsidiary Guarantor hereby
agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect
notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such
Subsidiary Guarantee.
(c) If an officer whose signature is on this Supplemental Indenture or on
the notation of the Subsidiary Guaranty no longer holds that office at the time
the Trustee authenticates the Note on which a Subsidiary Guarantee is endorsed,
the Subsidiary Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless.
(d) The New Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that its Subsidiary
Guarantee shall be unconditional, regardless of the validity, regularity or
enforceability of the Notes or the Indenture, the absence of any action to
enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of Notes with respect to
any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgement against the
Company, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might
otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor.
(e) The New Subsidiary Guarantor covenants (to the extent that it may
lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any
manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension
or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may
affect the covenants or the performance of the Indenture or its Subsidiary
Guarantee; and the New Subsidiary Guarantor (to the extent that it may lawfully
do so)
2
hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants
that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power granted to
the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as
though no such law had been enacted.
5. NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. No director, officer, employee,
incorporator or stockholder of any Subsidiary Guarantor, as such, shall have any
liability for any obligations of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor under
the Notes, any Subsidiary Guarantees, the Indenture or this Supplemental
Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such
obligations or their creation. Each Holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives
and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the
consideration for issuance of the Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees.
6. NEW YORK LAW TO GOVERN. The internal law of the State of New York
shall govern and be used to construe this Supplemental Indenture.
7. COUNTERPARTS. The parties may sign any number of copies of this
Supplemental Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them
together represent the same agreement.

whatsoever for or in respect of the validity or sufficiency of this Supplemental
