conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Indenture (including any
covenant compliance with which constitutes a condition precedent) relating to

if any, have been complied with, except that, in the case of any such

particular application or request, no additional certificate or opinion need be
furnished.


 


Every certificate or opinion (other than the

statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon
which the statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are
based;


 


(c)                                  a statement
that, in the opinion of each such individual, he has made such examination or

(d)                                 a statement as

Section 104.  Form of Documents Delivered to Trustee.


 


In any case where several matters are required to be
certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not
necessary that all such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of,

knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate
or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his
certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. 
Any such certificate or Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it
relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or
representations by, an officer or officers of the


 


18

information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the

(a)                                  Any request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action
provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders may be embodied in
and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed
by such Holders in person or by agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as
herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when
such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is
hereby expressly required, to the Company. Such instrument or instruments (and
the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes
referred to as the “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or
instruments.  Proof of execution of any
such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient
for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Trust Indenture Act Section 315)
conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company, if made in the manner
provided in this Section 105.


 


(b)                                 The fact and

notice, consent, waiver or other Act, the Company may, at its option, by or
pursuant to a Board Resolution, fix in advance a record date for the
determination of such Holders entitled to give such request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the Company
shall have no obligation to do so. 
Notwithstanding Trust Indenture Act Section 316(c), any such record
date shall be the record date specified in or pursuant to such Board
Resolution, which shall be a date not more than 30 days prior to the first
solicitation of Holders generally in connection therewith and no later
than the date such solicitation is completed.


 


If such a record date is fixed, such request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be
given before or after such record date, but only the Holders of record at
the close of business on such record date shall be deemed to be Holders
for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of
Securities then Outstanding have authorized or agreed or consented to such
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
Act, and for this purpose the Securities then Outstanding shall be


 


19

















 


computed as of
such record date; provided that no such request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act by the Holders on such record
date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the
provisions of this Indenture not later than six months after the record date.


 


(e)                                  Any request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act by the
Holder of any Security shall bind every future Holder of the same Security or
the Holder of every Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof
or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in respect of anything done,
suffered or omitted to be done by the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Company
in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such
Security.


 


Section 106.  Notices, Etc. to Trustee and Company.


 


Any request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other document provided or
permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed
with,


 


(a)                                  the Trustee by
any Holder, the agents of the Banks or the Company shall be sufficient for
every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or delivered, in writing
(which may be via facsimile), to or with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust
Office, Attention:  Corporate Trust
Services; or


 


(b)                                 the Company by
the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder
(unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if made, given, furnished or
delivered in writing to the Company addressed to it c/o CSC Holdings, Inc.,
1111 Stewart Avenue, Bethpage, New York 11714, Attention:  Secretary, or at any other address previously
furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company.


 


Section 107.  Notice to Holders; Waiver.


 


Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders
of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise
herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage
prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at his address as it appears in
the Security Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the
earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice.  In any case where notice to Holders is given
by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice
so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice
with respect to other Holders.  Any
notice when mailed to a Holder in the aforesaid manner shall be conclusively
deemed to have been received by such Holder whether or not actually received by
such Holder.


 


Where this Indenture provides for notice in any
manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive
such notice, either before or after the event, and such


 


20

















 


waiver shall be the equivalent
of such notice.  Waivers of notice by
Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a
condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such
waiver.


 


In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service
or by reason of any other cause, it shall be impracticable to mail notice of
any event as required by any provision of this Indenture, then any method of
giving such notice as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee shall be deemed to
be a sufficient giving of such notice.


 


Section 108.  Conflict of Any Provision of Indenture with
Trust Indenture Act.


 


If and to the extent that any provision of
this Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts with the duties imposed
by Trust Indenture Act Sections 310 to 318, inclusive, or conflicts with any
provision (an “incorporated provision”) required by or deemed to
be included in this Indenture by operation of such Trust Indenture Act
Sections, such imposed duties or incorporated provision shall control.  If any provision of this Indenture modifies
or excludes any provision of the Trust Indenture Act that may be so modified or
excluded, the latter provision shall be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so
modified or excluded, as the case may be.


 


Section 109.  Effect of Headings and Table of Contents.


 


The Article and Section headings herein
and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the
construction hereof.


 


Section 110.  Successors and Assigns.


 


All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by
the Company shall bind its respective successors and assigns, whether so
expressed or not.


 


Section 111.  Separability Clause.


 


In case any provision in this Indenture or in
the Securities 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.


 


Section 112.  Benefits of Indenture.


 


Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities,
express or implied, shall give to any Person (other than the parties hereto and
their successors hereunder, any Paying Agent and the Holders) any benefit or
any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

[The Holder of
this Security is entitled to the benefits of the Registration Rights Agreement,
dated February 12, 2009 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), between the
Company and the Initial Purchasers named therein.  Subject to the terms of the Registration
Rights Agreement, in the event this Security is not freely transferable and an
exchange offer (the “Exchange Offer”) for this Initial Security is not
consummated or a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect
to resales of this Security (the “Shelf Registration Statement”) is not
declared effective by the Commission on or prior to March 19, 2010, in either
case, in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement, the aforesaid
interest rate borne by this Security shall be increased by one-quarter of one
percent per annum for the first 90 days following March 19, 2010.  Such interest rate shall increase by an
additional one-quarter of one percent per annum thereafter, up to a maximum
aggregate increase of one half of one percent per annum.  Subject to the terms of the Registration
Rights Agreement, upon this Security becoming freely transferable, consummation
of the Exchange Offer or the effectiveness of a Shelf Registration Statement,
as the case may be, the interest rate borne by this Security shall be reduced
to 85/8% per annum.]****


 


If any interest has accrued on this Security
in respect of any period prior to the issuance of this Security, such interest
shall be payable in respect of such period at the rate or rates borne by the
Predecessor Security surrendered in exchange for this Security from time to

payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date
shall, as provided in such Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name
this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the
close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be
the February 1 or August 1 (whether or not a Business Day), as the
case may be, next preceding such Interest Payment Date.  Any such interest not so punctually paid or
duly provided for, and interest on such defaulted interest at the interest rate
borne by this Security, to the extent lawful, shall forthwith cease to be
payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date, and may be paid to the
Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is
registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of
such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be
given to Holders of Securities not less than 10 days prior to such Special
Record Date, or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not
inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the
Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such
exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.  Payment of the principal of and interest on
this Security shall be made at the office or agency of the Company maintained
for that purpose in The City of New York, or at such other office or agency of
the Company as may be maintained for such purpose, in such coin or currency of
the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for
payment of public and private debts; provided, however, that
payment of interest may be made at the option of the Company by check mailed to
the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear on the
Security Register.

Section 203.  Form of Reverse of Security.


 


This Security is one of a duly authorized
issue of securities of the Company designated as its 85/8% [Series B]* Senior Notes due 2019
(herein called the “Securities”), which may be issued under an indenture
(herein called the “Indenture”) dated as of February 12, 2009,
between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, trustee
(herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee
under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental
thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights,
limitations of rights, duties, obligations and immunities thereunder of the
Company, the Trustee, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness and the Holders of
the Securities, and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be,
authenticated and delivered.  This
Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof, initially limited
in aggregate principal amount to $526,000,000; provided, however,
that the Company may from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the
Holders of Securities, create and issue further Securities of this series (the “Additional
Securities”) having the same terms and ranking equally and ratably with the
Securities of this series in all respects and with the same CUSIP number as the
Securities of this series, or in all respects except for payment of interest
accruing prior to the issue date of such Additional Securities or except for
the first payment of interest following the issue date of such Additional
Securities.  Any Additional Securities
shall be consolidated and form a single series with the Securities and shall
have the same terms as to status, redemption and otherwise as the
Securities.  Any Additional Securities
may be issued pursuant to authorization provided by a resolution of the Board
of Directors of the Company, a supplement to the Indenture, or under an
Officers’ Certificate pursuant to the Indenture.  No Additional Securities may be issued if an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Securities
of this series.


 


[This Security
is exchangeable under certain circumstances as provided in the Indenture for
the Company’s 85/8% Series B Senior Notes due 2019 (herein called the “Exchange
Securities”), issued under the Indenture. 
Unless the context otherwise requires, the Securities and Exchange
Securities shall constitute one series for all purposes under the Indenture,
including without limitation amendments and waivers.]**


 


At its option,
the Company may redeem this Security, in whole or in part, at any time and from
time to time at a redemption price equal to the greater of (a) 100% of the
principal amount of this Security to be redeemed, or (b) as determined by
a Quotation Agent, the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled
payments of principal and interest thereon (not including any Liquidated
Damages or any portion of such payments of interest accrued to the Redemption
Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semiannual basis (assuming a
360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Adjusted Treasury Rate
plus 50 basis points, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest to the
Redemption Date.  Any redemption of this
Security shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 1101 through 1106
of the Indenture.


 






*                 Include only for Exchange Securities.


**          Include only for Initial
Securities and any Additional Securities.


 


26

















 


If an Event of Default shall occur and be
continuing, the principal of all the Securities may be declared due and payable
in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.


 


The Indenture contains provisions for
defeasance at any time of (a) the entire indebtedness of the Company on
this Security and (b) certain restrictive covenants and the related
Defaults and Events of Default, in each case, upon compliance by the Company
with certain conditions set forth therein, which provisions apply to this
Security.


 


This Security does not have the benefit of
any sinking fund obligations.


 


The Indenture permits, with certain
exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of
the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders under the
Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the
Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the
time Outstanding.  The Indenture
also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in
aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding, on behalf
of the Holders of all the Securities, to waive compliance by the Company with
certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the
Indenture and their consequences.  Any
such consent or waiver by or on behalf of the Holder of this Security shall be
conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this
Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or
in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent
or waiver is made upon this Security.


 


No reference herein to the Indenture and no
provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the
obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the
principal of and interest on this Security at the times, place, and rate, and
in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.


 


As provided in the Indenture and subject to
certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is
registrable on the Security Register of the Company, upon surrender of this
Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company
maintained for such purpose in The City of New York, duly endorsed by, or
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his
attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities,
of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, shall
be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.


 


The Securities are issuable only in
registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 and any
integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. 
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, the Securities are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal
amount of Securities of a different authorized denomination, as requested
by the Holder surrendering the same.


 


27

















 


No service charge shall be made for any
registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, but the Company may require
payment of a sum sufficient to pay all documentary, stamp or similar issue or
transfer taxes or other governmental charges payable in connection with any
registration of transfer or exchange.


 


Prior to the time of due presentment of this
Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent
of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security
is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this
Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent shall
be affected by notice to the contrary.


 


This Security shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard
to conflicts of laws principles thereof.


 


All terms used in this Security that are
defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the
Indenture.

The aggregate principal
amount of Initial Securities that may be authenticated and delivered under this

case, for Securities authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer
of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Securities pursuant to Section 303,

The Initial Securities and
the Additional Securities, if any, shall be known and designated as the “85/8% Senior Notes due 2019” and the Exchange Securities

2019, and they shall bear interest at the rate of 85/8% per annum (except as otherwise provided for in the form of Security)
from the relevant Securities Issue Date, or the most recent Interest Payment

or a Security surrendered in exchange for such Security, as the case may be,
payable on the relevant Initial Interest Payment Date (as defined below) and
semiannually thereafter on February 15 and August 15 of each year and
at said Stated Maturity, until the principal thereof is paid or duly provided

Company maintained for such purpose in The City of New York, or at such

by check mailed to addresses of the Persons entitled thereto as such addresses
shall appear on the Security Register.

In case the Company,
pursuant to Article Eight, shall be consolidated or merged with or into
any other Person or shall convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of
substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, and the successor
Person resulting from such consolidation, or surviving such merger, or into
which the Company shall have been merged, or the successor Person which shall

prior to such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, Lease or other
disposition may, from time to time, at the request of the successor Person, be
exchanged for other Securities executed in the name of the successor Person
with such changes in phraseology and form as may be appropriate, but otherwise
in substance of like tenor as the Securities surrendered for such exchange and
of like principal amount; and the Trustee, upon written order of the successor
Person, shall authenticate and deliver Securities as specified in such request
for the purpose of such exchange.  If
Securities shall at any time be authenticated and delivered in any new name of
a successor Person pursuant to this Section 303 in exchange or
substitution for or upon registration of transfer of any Securities, such
successor Person, at the option of any Holder but without expense to such
Holder, shall provide for the exchange of all Securities at the time
Outstanding held by such Holder for Securities authenticated and delivered in
such new name.


 


Except as described below,
the Securities shall be deposited with, or on behalf of, the Depository, and
registered in the name of the Depository or the nominee of the Depository in
the form of one or more global note certificates (each a “Rule 144A Global
Security”), for credit to the respective accounts of the beneficial owners of
the Securities represented thereby.  The Rule 144A
Global Securities shall bear the legend set forth in Section 206 and, in
the case of Restricted Securities, the legend set forth in Section 205.


 


Securities purchased by
persons outside the United States pursuant to sales in accordance with
Regulation S under the Securities Act shall be deposited with, or on behalf of,
the Depository, and registered in the name of the Depository or the nominee of
the Depository in the form of one or more global note certificates (each a “Regulation
S Global Security”), for credit to the respective accounts of the beneficial
owners of the Securities represented thereby (or such other accounts as they
may direct), provided that upon such deposit all such Securities shall
be credited to or through accounts maintained at the Depository by or on behalf
of the Euroclear System or Cedel Bank, S.A. 
Securities represented by a Regulation S Global Security shall not be
exchangeable for Securities in registered definitive form (each a “Physical
Security”) until the expiration of the “40-day restricted period” within the
meaning of Rule 903(c)(3) of Regulation S under the Securities
Act.  The Regulation S Global Securities
shall bear the legend set forth in Section 206 and, in the case of
Restricted Securities, the legend set forth in Section 205.


 


The Company may, subject to Article Ten of this
Indenture and applicable law, issue under this Indenture Additional Securities
and Exchange Securities therefor; provided, however, that the
Company may not issue any Additional Securities if an Event of Default with
respect to any Outstanding Securities shall have occurred and be continuing at
the time of such 


 


34

















 


issuance.  All Securities issued under this Indenture
shall be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture.


 


Section 304.  Temporary Securities.


 


Pending the preparation of
definitive Securities, the Company may execute, and upon Company Order the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities which are
typewritten, printed, lithographed, engraved or otherwise produced or
produced by any combination of these methods, in any authorized denomination,
substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they
are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and
other variations as the officers executing such Securities may determine, as
conclusively evidenced by their execution of such Securities.


 


If temporary Securities are
issued, the Company shall cause definitive Securities to be prepared
without unreasonable delay.  After the
preparation of definitive Securities, the temporary Securities shall be
exchangeable for definitive Securities upon surrender of the temporary
Securities at the office or agency of the Company designated for such purpose
pursuant to Section 1002, without charge to the Holder.  Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or
more temporary Securities, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of
definitive Securities of authorized denominations.  Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities
shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as
definitive Securities.


 


Section 305.  Registration, Registration of Transfer and
Exchange.


 


The Company shall cause to
be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register (the register
maintained in such office and in any other office or agency designated pursuant
to Section 1002 being herein sometimes referred to as the “Security
Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe,
the Company shall provide for the registration of Securities and of transfers
of Securities.  The Trustee is hereby
initially appointed “Security Registrar” for the purpose of registering
Securities and transfers of Securities as herein provided.  Such Security Register shall distinguish
between Initial Securities, Exchange Securities and Additional Securities.


 


Except as otherwise
described in this Article Three, upon surrender for registration of
transfer of any Security at the office or agency of the Company designated
pursuant to Section 1002 for such purpose, the Company shall execute, and
the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated
transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of any authorized
denomination or denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount.


 


At the option of the Holder,
Securities may be exchanged for other Securities of any authorized denomination
or denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount upon surrender of the
Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency.  Whenever any Securities are so surrendered
for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and



 


35

















 


deliver, the Securities
which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive; provided
that no exchange of Initial Securities or Additional Securities for Exchange
Securities shall occur until an Exchange Offer Registration Statement shall
have been declared effective by the Commission, the Trustee shall have received
an Officers’ Certificate confirming that the Exchange Offer Registration
Statement has been declared effective by the Commission and the Initial
Securities or Additional Securities to be exchanged for the Exchange Securities
shall be canceled by the Trustee.


 


All Securities issued upon
any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid
obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and (subject to the
provisions in the Initial Securities regarding the payment of additional
interest) entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities
surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.


 


Every Security presented or
surrendered for registration of transfer, or for exchange, shall (if so
required by the Company or the Security Registrar) be duly endorsed, or be
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Company and the Security Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his
attorney duly authorized in writing.


 


Every Restricted Security
shall be subject to, and no transfer shall be made other than in accordance
with, the restrictions on transfer provided in the legend set forth on the form
of the face of each Restricted Security and the restrictions set forth in this Article Three,
and the Holder of each Restricted Security, by such Holder’s acceptance
thereof, agrees to be bound by such restrictions on transfer.


 


The Security Registrar shall
notify the Company of any proposed transfer of a Restricted Security to any
Person.


 


No service charge shall be
made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, but the
Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to pay all documentary, stamp
or similar issue or transfer taxes or other governmental charges that may be
imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of
Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 303, 304 or 906 not
involving any transfer.


 


The Company shall not be
required to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security during a
period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before an Interest Payment
Date and ending on the close of business on such Interest Payment Date.


 


The Trustee shall have no
obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any
restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law
with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Security (including any
transfers between or among Agent Members or beneficial owners of interests in
any Global Security) other than to require delivery of such certificates and
other documentation or evidence as are expressly required 


 


36

















 


by, and to do so if and when
expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture, and to examine the same to
determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements
hereof.


 


Section 306.  Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen
Securities.


 


If (a) any mutilated
Security is surrendered to the Trustee, or (b) the Company and the Trustee
receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any
Security, and there is delivered to the Company and the Trustee such security
or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of
them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee
that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company
shall execute and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, in exchange for any such mutilated Security or in lieu of any such
destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a replacement Security of like tenor and
principal amount, and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.


 


In case any such mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and
payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a replacement
Security, pay such Security.


 


Upon the issuance of any
replacement Securities under this Section 306, the Company may require the
payment of a sum sufficient to pay all documentary, stamp or similar issue or
transfer taxes or other governmental charges that may be imposed in relation
thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee)
connected therewith.


 


Every replacement Security
issued pursuant to this Section 306 in lieu of any destroyed, lost or
stolen Security shall constitute a contractual obligation of the Company,
whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time
enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all benefits of this Indenture
equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities duly issued
hereunder.


 


The provisions of this Section 306
are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and
remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed,
lost or stolen Securities.


 


Section 307.  Payment of Interest; Interest Rights
Preserved.


 


Interest on any Security
which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest
Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or
more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the
Regular Record Date for such interest.


 


Any interest on any Security
which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any
Interest Payment Date and interest on such defaulted interest at the interest 


 


37

















 


rate borne by the
Securities, to the extent lawful (such defaulted interest and interest thereon
herein collectively called “Defaulted Interest”), shall forthwith cease to be
payable to the Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having
been such Holder; and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at
its election in each case, as provided in Subsection (a) or (b) below:


 


(a)                                  The Company may
elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names
the Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at
the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such
Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner.  The Company shall notify the Trustee in
writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each
Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company
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 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 in this Subsection
provided.  Thereupon the Trustee shall
fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest that shall
be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the
proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the
Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. 
The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special
Record Date.  In the name and at the
expense of the Company, the Trustee shall cause notice of the proposed payment
of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed,
first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder at his address as it appears in the
Security Register, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record
Date.  Notice of the proposed payment of
such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so
mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the
Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the
close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable
pursuant to the following Subsection (b).


 


(b)                                 The Company may
make payment of any Defaulted Interest in any other lawful manner not
inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities
may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if,
after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment
pursuant to this Subsection, such payment shall be deemed practicable by the
Trustee.


 


Subject to the foregoing
provisions of this Section 307, each Security delivered under this
Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any
other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to
accrue, which were carried by such other Security.


 


38

















 


Section 308.  Persons Deemed Owners.


 


Prior to the time of due
presentment for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any
agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name any
Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of
receiving payment of principal of and (subject to Section 307) interest on
such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such
Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the
Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.


 


Section 309.  Cancellation.


 


All Securities surrendered
for payment, registration of transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any
Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be
promptly canceled by it.  The Company may
at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously
authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in
any manner whatsoever, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly
canceled by the Trustee.  No Securities
shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities canceled as
provided in this Section 309, except as expressly permitted by this
Indenture.  All canceled Securities held
by the Trustee shall be disposed of by the Trustee in accordance with its
customary procedures.


 


Section 310.  Computation of Interest.


 


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


 


Section 311.  Registration Rights of Holders of Initial
Securities.


 


Pursuant to the terms of the
Registration Rights Agreement, holders of Initial Securities and holders of
Additional Securities, if any, shall be entitled to the benefits of the
Registration Rights Agreement.


 


Section 312.  ISIN and CUSIP Numbers.


 


The Company in issuing the
Securities may use “ISIN” and “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use) in
addition to serial numbers, and, if so, the Trustee shall use such “ISIN”
and  “CUSIP” numbers in addition to
serial numbers in notices of repurchase 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 Securities or as contained
in any notice of a repurchase and that reliance may be placed only on the
serial or other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such
repurchase shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such “ISIN” or
“CUSIP” numbers.  The Company shall
promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the “ISIN” or “CUSIP”
numbers.

Section 313.  Book-Entry Provisions for Global Securities.


 


(a)                                  The Global
Securities initially shall (i) be registered in the name of the Depository
or the nominee of such Depository, (ii) be delivered to the Trustee as
custodian for such Depository and (iii) bear legends as set forth in Section 206
and, in the case of Restricted Securities in the form of Global Securities, Section 205.


 


Members of, or participants
in, the Depository (“Agent Members”) shall have no rights under this Indenture
with respect to any Global Security held on their behalf by the Depository, or
the Trustee as its custodian, or under the Global Security, and the Depository
may be treated by the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the
Trustee as the absolute owner of the Global Security for all purposes
whatsoever.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee or any agent
of the Company or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification,
proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depository or impair, as between
the Depository and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices
governing the exercise of the rights of a Holder of any Security.


 


(b)                                 Transfers of
Global Securities shall be limited to transfers in whole, but not in part, to
the Depository, its successors or their respective nominees.  Interests of beneficial owners in a Rule 144A
Global Security may be transferred or exchanged for interests in a Regulation S
Global Security, and interests of beneficial owners in a Regulation S Global
Security may be transferred or exchanged for interests in a Rule 144A
Global Security, in each case in accordance with the rules and procedures
of the Depository and the provisions of Section 314.  Interests of beneficial owners in the Global
Securities may be transferred or exchanged for Physical Securities in
accordance with the rules and procedures of the Depository and the
provisions of Section 314.


 


In addition, Physical
Securities shall be transferred to all beneficial owners in exchange for their
beneficial interests in a Global Security if (i) the Depository notifies
the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as a depository for such
Global Security or if at any time the Depository ceases to be a clearing agency
registered under the Exchange Act, and a successor depository is not appointed
by the Company within 90 days, (ii) there shall have occurred and be
continuing an Event of Default with respect to the Securities represented by
such Global Security or (iii) the Company at any time determines not to
have Securities represented by a Global Security.


 


Except as provided above,
any Security authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or
in exchange for, or in lieu of, any Global Security, whether pursuant to this Section 313,
Section 304, 305, 306 or 906 or otherwise, shall also be a Global Security
and bear the legend specified in Section 206.


 


(c)                                  In connection
with any transfer or exchange of a portion of the beneficial interest in any
Global Security to beneficial owners pursuant to paragraph (b), the Security 


 


40

















 


Registrar shall (if one or more Physical
Securities are to be issued) reflect on its books and records the date and a
decrease in the principal amount of the Global Security in an amount equal to
the principal amount of the beneficial interest in the Global Security to be
transferred, and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate
and deliver, one or more Physical Securities of like tenor and principal amount
of authorized denominations.


 


(d)                                 In connection
with the transfer of Global Securities as an entirety to beneficial owners
pursuant to paragraph (b), the Global Securities shall be deemed to be
surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Company shall execute, and
the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, to each beneficial owner identified
by the Depository in exchange for its beneficial interest in the Global
Securities, an equal aggregate principal amount of Physical Securities of like
tenor of authorized denominations.


 


(e)                                  Any Physical
Security delivered in exchange for an interest in a Global Security pursuant to
paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section 313 shall, except as
otherwise provided by clause (1)(x) of paragraph (a) and by paragraph
(d) of Section 314, bear the legend set forth in Section 205.


 


(f)                                    The Holder of
any Global Security may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any person,
including Agent Members and persons that may hold interests through Agent
Members, to take any action that a Holder is entitled to take under this
Indenture or the Securities.


 


Section 314.  Special Transfer Provisions.


 


(a)                                  Transfers to
Non-U.S. Persons.  The
following provisions shall apply with respect to the registration of any proposed
transfer of a Restricted Security to any non-U.S. person:


 


(i)                                     the Security
Registrar shall register the transfer of any Restricted Security if (x) the
requested transfer is not prior to the later of the date which is one year (or
such other period as may be prescribed by Rule 144 under the Securities
Act or any successor provision thereunder) after the later of the original
issue date of such Security (or of any Predecessor Security) or  the date on which such Security is Freely
Transferable or (y) the proposed transferee has checked the box provided
for on the form of Security stating, and has provided to the Security Registrar
such certifications, opinions and other information as the Security Registrar
may (and, if so directed by the Company, shall) require, stating that such
Security is being transferred pursuant to offers and sales to non-U.S. persons
that occur outside the United States within the meaning of Regulation S under
the Securities Act; and


 


(ii)                                  the Security
Registrar shall register the transfer of any Restricted Security if the
proposed transferor is an Agent Member holding a beneficial interest in a Rule 144A
Global Security, upon receipt by the Security Registrar of (x) the
certificate, if any,


 


41
















 


required by paragraph (i) above
and (y) instructions given in accordance with the Depository’s and the
Security Registrar’s procedures;


 


whereupon the Security Registrar shall
reflect on its books and records the date of such transfer and (A) (if the
transfer involves a transfer of a beneficial interest in a Rule 144A
Global Security) a decrease in the principal amount of such Rule 144A
Global Security in an amount equal to the principal amount to be transferred
and (B) an increase in the principal amount of a Regulation S Global
Security in an amount equal to the principal amount to be transferred.


 


(b)           Transfers
to QIBs.  The following provisions
shall apply with respect to the registration of any proposed transfer of a
Restricted Security to a person purporting to be a QIB (excluding transfers to
non-U.S. persons):


 


(i)            the Security Registrar shall
register the transfer of any Restricted Security if such transfer is being made
by a proposed transferor who has checked the box provided for on the form of Security
stating, or who has otherwise advised the Company and the Security Registrar in
writing, that the transfer has been made in compliance with the exemption from
registration under the Securities Act provided under Rule 144A to a
transferee who has signed the certification provided for on the form of
Security stating, or has otherwise advised the Company and the Security
Registrar in writing, that such transferee represents and warrants that it is
purchasing the Security for its own account or an account with respect to which
it exercises sole investment discretion and that each of it and any such
account is a QIB within the meaning of Rule 144A and is aware that the
sale to it is being made in reliance on Rule 144A and acknowledges that it
has received such information regarding the Company as it has requested
pursuant to Rule 144A or has determined not to request such information
and that it is aware that the transferor is relying upon the foregoing
representations in order to claim the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A;
and


 


(ii)           the Security Registrar shall register
the transfer of any Restricted Security if the proposed transferee is an Agent
Member, and the Securities to be transferred consist of Physical Securities
which after transfer are to be evidenced by an interest in the Rule 144A
Global Security, upon receipt by the Security Registrar of instructions given
in accordance with the Depository’s and the Security Registrar’s procedures,
the Security Registrar shall reflect on the Security Register the date and an
increase in the principal amount of the Rule 144A Global Security in an
amount equal to the principal amount of the Physical Securities to be
transferred, and the Trustee shall cancel the Physical Securities so
transferred.


 


(c)           Other
Transfers.  If a Holder proposes to
transfer a Security pursuant to any exemption from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act other than as provided for by Sections 314(a) and
314(b), the Security Registrar shall only register such transfer or exchange if
such transferor delivers to the Security Registrar and the Trustee an Opinion
of Counsel 


 


42

















 


satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar that such
transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act and the terms of this
Indenture; provided that the Company may, based upon the opinion of its
counsel, instruct the Security Registrar by a Company Order not to register
such transfer in any case where the proposed transferee is not a QIB or a
non-U.S. person.


 


(d)           Private
Placement Legend.  Upon the
registration of transfer, exchange or replacement of Restricted Securities, the
Security Registrar shall deliver only Securities that bear the legend set forth
in Section 205 unless the circumstances contemplated by clause (a)(1)(x) of
this Section 314 exist.  By its
acceptance of any Security bearing the legend set forth in Section 205,
each Holder of such a Security acknowledges the restrictions on transfer of
such Security set forth in this Indenture and in such legend and agrees that it
shall transfer such Security only as provided in this Indenture.


 


The Security Registrar shall retain copies of all
letters, notices and other written communications received pursuant to Section 313
or this Section 314 for a period of two years, after which time such
letters, notices and other written communications shall at the written request
of the Company be delivered to the Company. 
The Company shall have the right to inspect and make copies of all such
letters, notices or other written communications at any reasonable time upon
the giving of reasonable prior written notice to the Security Registrar.


 


(e)           Termination
of Restrictions.  The restrictions
imposed by this Section 314 upon the transferability of any particular
Restricted Security shall cease and terminate (i) on the later of the date
occurring one year after the Securities Issue Date with respect to such
Restricted Security (or any Predecessor Security of such Restricted Security)
and the date on which such Security is Freely Transferable or (ii) (if
earlier) if and when such Restricted Security has been sold pursuant to an
effective registration statement under the Securities Act.  Any Restricted Security as to which such
restrictions on transfer shall have expired in accordance with their terms or
shall have terminated may, upon surrender of such Restricted Security for
exchange to the Trustee or any transfer agent in accordance with the provisions
of Section 305, be exchanged for a new Initial Security or any Additional
Security, as the case may be, of like tenor and aggregate principal amount,
which shall not bear the restrictive legend required by Section 205.  The Company shall inform the Trustee in
writing of (i) the effective date of any registration statement
registering the Initial Securities or any Additional Security, as the case may
be, under the Securities Act and (ii) at the request of the Trustee, the
date which is one year after the last date on which the Company or any Affiliate
of the Company was the owner of a Restricted Security in the event that an
Exchange Offer has not been consummated.

Section 401.  Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture.


 


This Indenture shall, upon Company Request, cease
to be of further effect (except as to surviving rights of registration of
transfer or exchange of Securities herein expressly provided for) and the
Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper
instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when


 


(a)           either


 


(i)            all Securities
theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (A) Securities which
have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid as
provided in Section 306 and (B) Securities for whose payment money
has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the
Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust, as
provided in Section 1003) have been delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation; or


 


(ii)           all such Securities
not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation


 


(A)          have become due and
payable, or


 


(B)           will become due and
payable within one year,


 


and
the Company, in the case of (A) or (B) above, has irrevocably
deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust
for the purpose an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire
indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation, for principal and interest to the date of such deposit (in the
case of Securities which have become due and payable) or to the Stated
Maturity;


 


(b)           the Company has paid or caused to be
paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company; and


 


(c)           the Company has delivered to the
Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that
all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture have been complied with.


 


Notwithstanding the satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee
under Section 606 and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee
pursuant to subclause (ii) of Subsection (a) of this Section 401,
the obligations of the Trustee under 


 


44

















 


Section 402 and the last paragraph of Section 1003
shall survive such satisfaction and discharge.


 


Section 402.  Application of Trust Money.


 


Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003,
all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 401 shall be held
in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities
and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent
(including the Company acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to
the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal and interest for whose payment
such money has been deposited with the Trustee.


 


ARTICLE FIVE



REMEDIES


 


Section 501.  Events of Default.


 


An “Event of Default” occurs if:


 


(a)           the Company defaults in the payment
of interest on any Security when the same becomes due and payable and such
default continues for a period of 30 days;


 


(b)           the Company defaults in the payment
of the principal of any Security when the same becomes due and payable at
maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise;


 


(c)           the Company fails to comply with any
of its other agreements or covenants in, or provisions of, the Securities or
this Indenture, and the Default continues for the period and after the notice,
if any, specified below;


 


(d)           a default occurs under any mortgage,
indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may
be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company or
one of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by
the Company or one of its Restricted Subsidiaries), whether such Indebtedness
or guarantee now exists or shall be created hereafter (but excluding any
Indebtedness for the deferred purchase price of property or services owed to
the Person providing such property or services as to which the Company or such
Restricted Subsidiary is contesting its obligation to pay the same in good
faith and by proper proceedings and for which the Company or such Restricted
Subsidiary has established appropriate reserves), and (i) either (A) such
event of default results from the failure to pay any such Indebtedness at final
maturity or (B) as a result of such event of default the maturity of such
Indebtedness has been accelerated prior to its expressed maturity and (ii) the
principal amount of such Indebtedness equals $10,000,000 or more or, together
with the principal amount of any such Indebtedness in default for failure to
pay principal at maturity or the maturity of which has been so accelerated,
aggregates $10,000,000 or more;


 


45

















 


(e)           a final judgment or final judgments
for the payment of money are entered by a court or courts of competent
jurisdiction against the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary and either (i) an
enforcement proceeding shall have been commenced by any creditor upon such
judgment or (ii) such judgment remains undischarged and unbonded for a
period (during which execution shall not be effectively stayed) of 60 days, provided
that the aggregate of all such judgments exceeds $10,000,000;


 


(f)                                    the Company
pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:


 


(i)            commences a
voluntary case or proceeding,


 


(ii)           consents to the
entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case or proceeding,


 


(iii)          consents to the
appointment of a Custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its
property,


 


(iv)          makes a general
assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or


 


(v)           admits in writing
that it generally is unable to pay its debts as the same become due; or


 


(g)           a court of competent jurisdiction
enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:


 


(i)            is for relief
against the Company in an involuntary case or proceeding,


 


(ii)           appoints a
Custodian of the Company or for all or substantially all of its property, or


 


(iii)          orders the
liquidation of the Company;


 


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


 


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


 


A Default under Section 501(c) is not an
Event of Default until the Trustee notifies the Company in writing, or the
Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities then Outstanding
notify the Company and the Trustee in writing, of the Default, and the Company
does not cure the Default within 60 days (30 days in the case of a Default
under Section 801 or 1004) 


 


46

















 


after receipt of the
notice.  The notice must specify the
Default, demand that it be remedied and state that the notice is a “Notice
of Default.”  Such notice to the Company
shall be given by the Trustee if so requested in writing by the Holders of 25%
of the principal amount of the Securities then Outstanding.


 


Section 502.  Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission.


 


If an Event of Default (other than an Event of
Default specified in Section 501(f) or 501(g)) occurs and is
continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% of the principal amount
of the Initial Securities, Exchange Securities and any Additional Securities
then Outstanding, voting together as a single class, by written notice to the
Company and the agents, if any, under the Bank Credit Agreement (and to the
Trustee if such notice is given by the Holders), may, and the Trustee at the
request of such Holders shall, declare all unpaid principal of and accrued
interest on all the Securities to be due and payable, as specified below.  Upon a declaration of acceleration, such
principal and accrued interest shall be due and payable 10 days after
receipt by the Company of such written notice given hereunder.  If an Event of Default specified in Section 501(f) or
501(g) with respect to the Company occurs, the amounts described above
shall ipso  facto become and be immediately due and payable
without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any
Holder.  Upon payment of such principal
and interest, all of the Company’s obligations under the Securities and this
Indenture, other than obligations under Section 606, shall terminate.


 


The Holders of at least a majority in principal
amount of the Securities then Outstanding, voting together as a single class,
by written notice to the Trustee, may rescind an acceleration and its
consequences if (i) all existing Events of Default, other than the
non-payment of principal of or interest on the Securities which have become due
solely because of the acceleration, have been cured or waived and (ii) the
rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of
competent jurisdiction.


 


Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, in the
event of a declaration of acceleration in respect of the Securities because an
Event of Default specified in Section 501(d) shall have occurred and
be continuing, such declaration of acceleration shall be automatically annulled
if the Indebtedness that is the subject of such Event of Default has been
discharged or the holders thereof have rescinded their declaration of
acceleration in respect of such Indebtedness, and written notice of such
discharge or rescission, as the case may be, shall have been given to the
Trustee by the Company and countersigned by the holders of such Indebtedness or
a trustee, fiduciary or agent for such holders, within 30 days after such declaration
of acceleration in respect of the Securities, and no other Event of Default has
occurred during such 30-day period which has not been cured or waived during
such period.


 


Notices by the Trustee to the agents under the Bank
Credit Agreement provided for herein shall be delivered or mailed to Bank
of America, N.A., One Independence Center, 101 North Tryon Street, Charlotte,
North Carolina, 28255, Attention: Agency Management; and to any other person
who hereafter becomes an agent under the Bank Credit Agreement, provided the 


 


47

















 


Trustee has been notified by
the Company or the Banks of the names and mailing addresses of such persons.


 


Section 503.  Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for
Enforcement by Trustee.


 


The Company covenants that if


 


(a)           default is made in the payment of any
interest on any Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such
default continues for a period of 30 days, or


 


(b)           default is made in the payment of the
principal of any Security at the Maturity thereof,


 


the Company shall, upon demand of the
Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, the
whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal and
interest, with interest upon the overdue principal and, to the extent that
payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, upon overdue
installments of interest, at the rate borne by the Securities; and, in addition
thereto, 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, its agents and counsel.


 


If the Company fails to pay such amounts forthwith
upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express
trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums
so due and unpaid and may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final
decree, and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon
the Securities and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the
manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor
upon the Securities, wherever situated.


 


If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the
Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the
rights of the Holders under this Indenture by such appropriate private or
judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and
enforce such rights.


 


48

















 


Section 504.  Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.


 


In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation,
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other
judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the
Securities or the property of the Company or of such other obligor or their
creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities
shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or
otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on
the Company for the payment of overdue principal or interest) shall be entitled
and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise,


 


(a)           to file and prove a claim for the
whole amount of principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the
Securities and to file such 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 the
Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial
proceeding, and


 


(b)           to collect and receive any moneys or
other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute
the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator,
sequestrator or similar official 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 the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents
and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 606.


 


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 proposal, plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or
composition or other similar arrangement affecting the Securities or the rights
of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the
claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.


 


Section 505.  Trustee May Enforce Claims Without
Possession of Securities.


 


All rights of action and claims under this Indenture
or the Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the
possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding
relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be
brought in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of
judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents
and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in
respect of which such judgment has been recovered.


 


49

















 


Section 506.  Application of Money Collected.


 


Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall
be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee
and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal or
interest, upon presentation of the Securities and the notation thereon of the
payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:


 


FIRST:  To the payment of all
amounts due the Trustee under Section 606;


 


SECOND:  To the payment of the
amounts then due and unpaid upon the Securities for principal and interest, in
respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected,
ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts
due and payable on such Securities for principal and interest; and


 


THIRD:  The balance, if any, to
the Company.


 


Section 507.  Limitation on Suits.


 


No Holder of any Securities shall have any right to
institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture
or the Securities, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any
other remedy hereunder, unless


 


(a)           such Holder has previously given
written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default;


 


(b)           the Holders of not less than 25% in
principal amount of the Securities then Outstanding, voting together as a
single class, shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute
proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee
hereunder;


 


(c)           such Holder or Holders have offered
to the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs,
expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request;


 


(d)           the Trustee for 60 days after its
receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute
any such proceeding; and


 


(e)           no direction inconsistent with such
written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities;


 


it being understood and intended that no one
or more Holders shall have any right in any manner 


 


50

















 


whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any
provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any
other Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over
any other Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture except in the
manner provided in this Indenture and for the equal and ratable benefit of all
the Holders.


 


Section 508.  Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive
Principal and Interest.


 


Notwithstanding any other provision in this
Indenture, the Holder of any Security shall have the right, which is absolute
and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and (subject to Section 307)
interest on such Security on the respective due dates expressed in such
Security and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and
such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.


 


Section 509.  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
the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall, subject to any determination in
such proceeding, 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 had been instituted.


 


Section 510.  Rights and Remedies Cumulative.


 


Except as provided in Section 306, no right or
remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is
intended to be exclusive of any other right or 
remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by
law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given
hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise.  The assertion or employment of any right or
remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or
employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.


 


Section 511.  Delay or Omission Not Waiver.


 


No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder
of any Security to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of
Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any
such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein.  Every right and remedy given by this Article or
by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and
as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the
case may be.


 


51
















 


Section 512.  Control by Holders.


 


The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Securities then Outstanding, voting together as a single class, shall have the
right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any
remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on
the Trustee, provided that


 


(a)           such direction shall not be in
conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture or expose the Trustee
to personal liability, and


 


(b)           subject to the provisions of Trust
Indenture Act Section 315, the Trustee may take any other action deemed
proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction.


 


Section 513.  Waiver of Past Defaults.


 


The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Securities then Outstanding, voting together as a single class, may on behalf
of the Holders of all the Securities waive any past Default or Event of Default
hereunder and its consequences, except a Default or Event of Default


 


(a)           in the payment of the principal of or
interest on any Security, or


 


(b)           in respect of a covenant or provision
hereof which under Article Nine cannot be modified or amended without the
consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected.


 


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.


 


Section 514.  Undertaking for Costs.


 


All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder
of any Security by his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that
any court may in its discretion require, 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 Trustee, the filing by any party
litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that
such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable
attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in such suit, having
due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such
party litigant; but the provisions of this Section 514 shall not apply to
any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or
group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of
the Securities then Outstanding, voting together as a single class, or to any suit
instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of



 


52

















 


or interest on any Security
on or after the respective Stated Maturities expressed in such Security; provided
that neither this Section 514 nor the Trust Indenture Act shall be deemed
to authorize any court to require such an undertaking or to make such an
assessment in any suit instituted by the Company.


 


Section 515.  Waiver of Stay, Extension or Usury Laws.


 


The Company covenants (to the extent that it may
lawfully do so) that it shall 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 this Indenture; and the
Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all
benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it shall not hinder,
delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but
shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law
had been enacted.

opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be

reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate
indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

eligible in accordance with the provisions of

this Section 608, it
shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter
specified in this Article.


 


Section 609.  Resignation and Removal; Appointment of
Successor.


 


(a)           No
resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee
pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the acceptance of
appointment by the successor Trustee under Section 610.


 


(b)           The
Trustee may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the
Company.  If an instrument of acceptance
by a successor Trustee shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30
days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may
petition at the expense of the Company any court of competent jurisdiction for
the appointment of a successor Trustee.

principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, delivered to the Trustee and

Trustee may petition at the expense of the Company any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

(i)            the Trustee shall fail to comply
with the provisions of Trust Indenture Act Section 310(b) after
written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona
fide Holder of a Security for at least six months, or

eligible under Section 608 and shall fail to resign after written request
therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a
Security for at least six months, or


 


(iii)          the Trustee shall become incapable of
acting or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the
Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take
charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose
of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,


 


then, in any case, (A) the Company by a
Board Resolution may remove the Trustee, or (B) subject to Section 514,
the Holder of any Security who has been a bona fide Holder of a  Security for at least six months may, on
behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of
competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a
successor Trustee.


 


(e)           If
the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a
vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, the Company, by a
Board Resolution, 


 


58

















 


shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee.  If, within one year after such
resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a
successor Trustee shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities delivered to the Company and the
retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its
acceptance of such appointment in accordance with Section 610, become the
successor Trustee and supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the
Company.  If no successor Trustee shall
have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders of the Securities and so
accepted appointment, the Holder of any Security who has been a bona fide
Holder for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others
similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor Trustee.

Section 610.  Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.


 


Every successor Trustee appointed hereunder shall
execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an
instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal
of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee,
without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the
rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee, provided,
however, that the retiring Trustee shall continue to be entitled to the
benefit of Section 606(c); but, on request of the Company or the successor
Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and
deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights,
powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee, and shall duly assign, transfer and
deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring
Trustee hereunder.  Upon request of any
such successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more
fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all
such rights, powers and trusts.


 


No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment
unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified
and eligible under this Article.

from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a
party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the
corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee
hereunder, provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible
under this Article, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further
act on the part of any of the parties hereto. 
In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered,
by the Trustee then in office, any 


 


59

















 


successor by merger,
conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such
authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect
as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities.


 


Section 612.  Preferential Collection of Claims Against
Company.


 


If and when the Trustee shall be or become a
creditor of the Company (or any other obligor under the Securities), the
Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding
the collection of claims against the Company (or any such other obligor).


 


Section 613.  Trustee’s Application for Instructions from
the Company.


 


Any application by the Trustee for written
instructions from the Company may, at the option of the Trustee, set forth in
writing any action proposed to be taken or omitted by the Trustee under this
Indenture and the date on and/or after which such action shall be taken or such
omission shall be effective.  The Trustee
shall not be liable for any action taken by, or omission of, the Trustee in
accordance with a proposal included in such application on or after the date
specified in such application (which date shall not be less than three Business
Days after the date any officer of the Company actually received such
application) unless, with respect to any such action (or the effective date in
the case of an omission), the Trustee shall have received written instructions
in response to such application specifying the action to be taken or omitted.


 


Section 614.  Notice of Defaults.


 


Within 90 days after the occurrence of any Default,
the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Holders, as their names and addresses
appear in the Security Register, notice of such Default hereunder actually
known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, unless such default shall have
been cured or waived; provided, however, that, except in the case
of a default in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Security,
the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as a
trust committee of directors and/or Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good
faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interest of the
Holders; and provided  further that, in the case of any default or
breach of the character specified in Section 501(d), no such notice to
Holders shall be given until at least 30 days after the occurrence thereof.

of its Subsidiaries and (b) all material lawful claims for labor,
materials and supplies, which, if unpaid, might by law become a Lien upon the
property of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however,
that the Company shall not be required to pay or discharge or cause to be paid
or discharged any such tax, assessment, charge or claim whose amount,
applicability or validity is being contested in good faith by appropriate
proceedings.


 


Section 1006.  Maintenance of Properties.


 


The Company shall cause all material properties
owned by or leased to it or any Restricted Subsidiary and necessary in the
conduct of its business or the business of such Restricted Subsidiary to be
maintained and kept in normal condition, repair and working order, ordinary
wear and tear excepted; provided that nothing in this Section 1006
shall prevent the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary from discontinuing the
use, operation or maintenance of any of such properties, or disposing of any of
them, if such discontinuance or disposal is, in the judgment of the Board of
Directors or the board of directors of the Restricted Subsidiary concerned, or
of any officer (or other agent employed by the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary) of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary having managerial responsibility
for any such property, desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company
or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company and if such discontinuance or
disposal is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders.


 


The Company shall provide or cause to be provided,
for itself and any Restricted Subsidiaries, insurance (including appropriate
self-insurance) against loss or damage of the kinds customarily insured against
by corporations similarly situated and owning like properties in the same general
areas in which the Company or such Restricted Subsidiaries operate.


 


Section 1007.  Limitation on Indebtedness.


 


The Company shall not, and shall not permit any
Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, incur, create, issue, assume,
guarantee or otherwise become liable for, contingently or otherwise, or become
responsible for the payment of, contingently or otherwise, any Indebtedness
(other than Indebtedness between or among any of the Company and Restricted 


 


68

















 


Subsidiaries) unless, after
giving effect thereto, the Cash Flow Ratio shall be less than or equal to 9 to
1.


 


Section 1008.  Limitation on Liens.


 


The Company shall not, and shall not permit any
Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or
suffer to exist any Lien of any kind, except for Permitted Liens, on or with
respect to any of its property or assets, whether owned at the date of this
Indenture or thereafter acquired, or any income, profits or proceeds therefrom,
or assign or otherwise convey any right to receive income thereon, unless (x) in
the case of any Lien securing Indebtedness that is subordinated in right of
payment to the Securities, the Securities are secured by a Lien on such
property, assets or proceeds that is senior in priority to such Lien and (y) in
the case of any other Lien, the Securities are equally and ratably secured.


 


Section 1009.  Limitation on Restricted Payments.


 


Except as otherwise provided in this Section 1009,
the Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, make
any Restricted Payment if (a) at the time of such proposed Restricted
Payment, a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or
shall occur as a consequence of such Restricted Payment or (b) immediately
after giving effect to such Restricted Payment, the aggregate of all Restricted
Payments that shall have been made on or after April 1, 2008 would exceed
the sum of:


 


(a)           $2,700,000,000, plus


 


(b)           an amount equal to the difference
between (i) the Cumulative Cash Flow Credit and (ii) 1.2 multiplied
by Cumulative Interest Expense.


 


For purposes of this Section 1009, the amount
of any Restricted Payment, if other than cash, shall be based upon fair market
value as determined by the Board of Directors, whose good faith determination
shall be conclusive.


 


The foregoing provisions of this Section 1009
shall not prevent (i) the payment of any dividend within 60 days after the
date of declaration thereof, if at such date of declaration such payment
complied with the foregoing provisions or this Section 1009; and (ii) the
retirement, redemption, purchase, defeasance or other acquisition of any shares
of the Company’s Capital Stock or warrants, rights or options to acquire
Capital Stock of the Company in exchange for, or out of the proceeds of a sale
(within one year before or 180 days after such retirement, redemption,
purchase, defeasance or other acquisition) of, other shares of the Company’s
Capital Stock or warrants, rights or options to acquire Capital Stock of the
Company.  For purposes of determining the
aggregate permissible amount of Restricted Payments in accordance with clause (b) of
the first paragraph of this Section 1009, all amounts expended pursuant to
clause (i) of this paragraph shall be included and all
amounts expended or received pursuant to clause (ii) of this
paragraph shall be excluded; provided, however, that amounts paid
pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph shall be 


 


69

















 


included only to the extent
that such amounts were not previously included in calculating Restricted
Payments.


 


For the purposes of this Section 1009, the net
proceeds from the issuance of shares of Capital Stock of the Company upon
conversion of Indebtedness shall be deemed to be an amount equal to (i) the
accreted value of such Indebtedness on the date of such conversion and (ii) the
additional consideration, if any, received by the Company upon such conversion
thereof, less any cash payment on account of fractional shares (such
consideration, if in property other than cash, to be determined by the Board of
Directors, whose good faith determination shall be conclusive and evidenced by
a Board Resolution).  If the Company
makes a Restricted Payment which, at the time of the making of such
Restricted Payment, would in the good faith determination of the Company be
permitted under the requirements of this Section 1009, such Restricted
Payment shall be deemed to have been made in compliance with this Section 1009
notwithstanding any subsequent adjustments made in good faith to the Company’s
financial statements affecting Cumulative Cash Flow Credit or Cumulative
Interest Expense for any period.


 


Section 1010.  Limitation on Investments in Unrestricted
Subsidiaries and Affiliates.


 


The Company shall not, and shall not permit any
Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, (a) make any Investment
or (b) allow any Restricted Subsidiary to become an Unrestricted
Subsidiary (a “redesignation of a Restricted Subsidiary”), in each case unless (i) no
Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or shall
occur as a consequence of such Investment or such redesignation of a Restricted
Subsidiary and (ii) after giving effect thereto, the Cash Flow Ratio shall
be less than or equal to 9 to 1.


 


The foregoing provisions of this Section 1010
shall not prohibit (a) any renewal or reclassification of any Investment
existing on the date hereof or (b) trade credit extended on usual and
customary terms in the ordinary course of business.


 


Section 1011.  Transactions with Affiliates.


 


The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of
its Subsidiaries to, sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its
properties or assets to or purchase any property or assets from, or enter
into any contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with,
or for the benefit of, an Affiliate of the Company that is not a
Subsidiary, having a value, or for consideration having a value, in excess of
$10,000,000 individually or in the aggregate unless the Board of Directors
shall make a good faith determination that the terms of such transaction are,
taken as a whole, no less favorable to the Company or such Subsidiary, as the
case may be, than those which might be available in a comparable transaction
with an unrelated Person.  For purposes
of clarification, this Section 1011 shall not apply to any Restricted
Payments permitted by Section 1009.

Section 1012.  Provision of Financial Statements.


 


(a)           The
Company shall supply without cost to each Holder of the Securities, and file

the Exchange.


 


(b)           If
the Company is not required to file with the Commission such reports and other

75 days after the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of each fiscal
year, quarterly reports containing the information required to be contained in Form 10-Q
promulgated under the Exchange Act, or substantially the same information
required to be contained in any successor form.


 


(c)           At
any time when the Company is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of
the Exchange Act, upon the request of a Holder of a Restricted Security, the
Company shall promptly furnish or cause to be furnished such information as is
specified pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act (or
any successor provision thereto) to such Holder or to a prospective purchaser
of such Security designated by such holder, as the case may be, in order to
permit compliance by such holder with Rule 144A under the Securities Act.


 


Section 1013.  Statement as to Compliance.


 


The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within
120 days after the end of each fiscal year ending after February 12,
2009, a brief certificate of its principal executive officer, principal
financial officer or principal accounting officer stating whether, to such
officer’s knowledge, the Company is in compliance with all covenants and
conditions under this Indenture.  For
purposes of this Section 1013, such compliance shall be determined without
regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice under this Indenture.


 


Section 1014.  Waiver of Certain Covenants.


 


The Company may omit in any particular instance
to comply with any covenant or condition set forth in Sections 1007
through 1012 if, before or after the time for such compliance, the Holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, by Act of
such Holders, waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive
compliance with such covenant or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to
or affect such covenant or condition except to the extent so expressly waived,
and, until such waiver shall become effective, the 


 


71

















 


obligations of the Company
and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such covenant or condition
shall remain in full force and effect.


 


Section 1015.  Statement by Officers as to Default.


 


The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, as soon as
possible and in any event within five days after the Company becomes aware of
the occurrence of any Event of Default or an event which, with notice or the
lapse of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default, an Officers’
Certificate setting forth the details of such Event of Default or default and
the action which the Company proposes to take with respect thereto.

REDEMPTION
OF SECURITIES


 


Section 1101.  Notices to Trustee.


 


If the Company elects to redeem Securities pursuant to
the optional redemption provisions of Section 1107 hereof, it shall
furnish to the Trustee, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a
redemption date, an Officers’ Certificate setting forth (i) the Section of
this Indenture pursuant to which the redemption shall occur, (ii) the
Redemption Date, (iii) the principal amount of Securities to be redeemed
and (iv) the Redemption Price.


 


Section 1102.  Selection of Securities to Be Redeemed.


 


(a)           If
less than all of the Securities are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee
shall select the Securities to be redeemed among the Holders of the Securities
in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities
exchange, if any, on which the Securities are listed or, if the Securities are
not so listed, on a pro rata basis, by lot or in
accordance with any other method the Trustee considers fair and
appropriate.  In the event of partial
redemption by lot, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected,
unless otherwise provided herein, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior
to the Redemption Date by the Trustee from the outstanding Securities not
previously called for redemption.


 


(b)           The
Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Securities selected
for redemption and, in the case of any Security selected for partial
redemption, the principal amount at maturity thereof to be redeemed.  No Securities in amounts of $2,000 or less
shall be redeemed in part.  Securities
and portions of Securities selected for redemption shall be in amounts of
$1,000 or integral multiples thereof; provided that the unredeemed portion of
Securities held by a Holder after giving effect to the redemption shall not be
in an amount of less than $2,000; and provided further that if all of the
Securities of a Holder are to be redeemed, the entire outstanding amount of
Securities held by such Holder, even if not $2,000 or a multiple of $1,000 in
excess thereof, shall be redeemed. 
Except as provided in the preceding sentence, 


 


72

















 


provisions of this Indenture that apply to Securities called for
redemption also apply to portions of Securities called for redemption.


 


Section 1103.  Notice of Redemption.


 


(a)           At
least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a Redemption Date, the Company
shall mail or cause to be mailed, by first class mail, a notice of redemption
to each Holder whose Securities are to be redeemed at its registered address.


 


The notice shall identify the Securities (including
the CUSIP or ISIN numbers) to be redeemed and shall state:


 


(i)            the Redemption Date;


 


(ii)           if any Security is being redeemed in
part, the portion of the principal amount at maturity of such Security to be
redeemed and that, after the Redemption Date upon surrender of such Security, a
new Security or Securities in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion
of the original Security shall be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon
cancellation of the original Security;


 


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


 


(iv)          that Securities called for redemption
must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the Redemption Price and
become due on the date fixed for redemption;


 


(v)           that, unless the Company defaults in
making such redemption payment, interest, if any, on Securities called for
redemption ceases to accrue on and after the Redemption Date; and


 


(vi)          that no representation is made as to
the correctness or accuracy of the ISIN or CUSIP number, if any, listed in such
notice or printed on the Securities.


 


(b)           At
the Company’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the
Company’s name and at its expense; provided, however, that the
Company shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least 45 days prior to the
Redemption Date, an Officers’ Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such
notice and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as
provided in the preceding paragraph.  The
notice, if mailed in the manner provided herein shall be presumed to have been
given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice.


 


Section 1104.  Effect of Notice of Redemption.


 


Once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with
Section 1103 hereof, Securities called for redemption shall become
irrevocably due and payable on the redemption date at the Redemption
Price.  A notice of redemption may not be
conditional.


 


73

















 


Section 1105.  Deposit of Redemption Price.


 


(a)           Not
later than 11:00 am on the Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the
Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price
of and accrued interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, on all Securities to be
redeemed on that date.  The Trustee or
the Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Company any money deposited with
the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Company in excess of the amounts
necessary to pay the Redemption Price of, and accrued interest and Liquidated
Damages, if any, on, all Securities to be redeemed.


 


(b)           If
the Company complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and
after the Redemption Date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Securities or
the portions of Securities called for redemption.  If a Security is redeemed on or after a
Regular Record Date but on or prior to the related interest payment date, then
any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name such
Security was registered at the close of business on such Regular Record
Date.  If any Security called for
redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender for redemption because of the
failure of the Company to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall
be paid on the unpaid principal, from the Redemption Date until such principal
is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid
principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Securities and in Section 1001
hereof.


 


Section 1106.  Securities Redeemed in Part.


 


Upon surrender of a Security that is redeemed in
part, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder
at the expense of the Company a new Security equal in principal amount to the
unredeemed portion of the Security surrendered. 
No Securities in denominations of $2,000 or less shall be redeemed in
part.


 


Section 1107.  Optional Redemption.


 


At its option, the Company may redeem the
Securities, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time at a
redemption price equal to the greater of (a) 100% of the principal amount
of the Securities to be redeemed, or (b) as determined by a Quotation
Agent, the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of
principal and interest thereon (not including any Liquidated Damages or any
portion of such payments of interest accrued to the Redemption Date) discounted
to the Redemption Date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year
consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Adjusted Treasury Rate plus 50 basis
points, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date.


 


Each redemption price provided for in this Section 1107
shall be referred to herein as the “Redemption Price”.


 


Any redemption pursuant to this Section 1107
shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 1101 through 1106 hereof.

DEFEASANCE
AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE


 


Section 1201.  Option to Effect Defeasance or Covenant
Defeasance.


 


The Company may, at its option by Board Resolution,
at any time, with respect to the Securities, elect to have either Section 1202
or Section 1203 be applied to all Outstanding Securities upon compliance
with the conditions set forth below in this Article Twelve.


 


Section 1202.  Defeasance and Discharge.


 


Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 1201
of the option applicable to this Section 1202, the Company shall be deemed
to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to all Outstanding
Securities on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter,
“defeasance”).  For this purpose, such
defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged
the entire indebtedness represented by the Outstanding Securities, which shall
thereafter be deemed to be “Outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 1205
and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (A) and (B) below,
and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Securities
and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of
the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except
for the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged
hereunder:  (A) the rights of
Holders of Outstanding Securities to receive solely from the trust fund described
in Section 1204 and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in
respect of the principal of and interest on such Securities when such payments
are due, (B) the Company’s obligations with respect to such Securities
under Sections 304, 305, 306, 1002 and 1003, (C) the rights, powers,
trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the Company’s
obligations in connection therewith and (D) this Article Twelve.  Subject to compliance with this Article Twelve,
the Company may exercise its option under this Section 1202
notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 1203 with
respect to the Securities.


 


Section 1203.  Covenant Defeasance.


 


Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 1201
of the option applicable to this Section 1203, the Company shall be
released from its obligations under any covenant contained in Article Eight
and in Sections 1004 through 1012 with respect to the Outstanding Securities on
and after the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “covenant
defeasance”), and the Securities shall thereafter be deemed to be 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 covenants,
but shall continue to be deemed “Outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder
(it being understood that such Securities shall not be deemed Outstanding for
financial accounting purposes).  For this
purpose, such covenant defeasance means that, with respect to the Outstanding
Securities, the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no 


 


75

















 


liability in respect of any
term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly
or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant
or by reason of any reference in any such covenant 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 501(c),
but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such
Securities shall be unaffected thereby. 
In addition, upon the Company’s exercise under Section 1201 of
the option applicable to Section 1203, Sections 501(c) through 501(e) shall
not constitute Events of Default.


 


Section 1204.  Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant
Defeasance.


 


The following shall be the conditions to application
of either Section 1202 or Section 1203 to the Outstanding Securities:


 


(1)           The Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to
be deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee satisfying the requirements
of Section 608 who shall agree to comply with the provisions of this Article Twelve
applicable to it) as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the
following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely
to, the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, (A) cash in U.S.
Dollars in an amount, or (B) U.S. Government Obligations (as defined
below) which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect
thereof in accordance with their terms shall provide, not later than one day
before the due date of any payment, cash in U.S. Dollars in an amount, or (C) a
combination thereof, sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm
of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof
delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge and which shall be applied by
the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee) to pay and discharge, (i) the
principal of and interest on the Outstanding Securities due on the Stated
Maturity of such principal or installment of principal or interest and (ii) any
mandatory sinking fund payments or analogous payments applicable to the Outstanding
Securities on the day on which such payments are due and payable in accordance
with the terms of this Indenture and of such Securities; provided that
the Trustee shall have been irrevocably instructed to apply such money or the
proceeds of such U.S. Government Obligations to said payments with respect to
the Securities.  For this purpose, “U.S.
Government Obligations” means securities that are (x) direct obligations
of the United States of America for the timely payment of which its full faith
and credit is pledged or (y) obligations of a Person controlled or
supervised by and acting as an agency or instrumentality of the United States
of America the timely payment of which is unconditionally guaranteed as a full
faith and credit obligation by the United States of America, which, in either
case, are not callable or redeemable at the option of the issuer thereof, and
shall also include a depository receipt issued by a bank (as defined in Section 3(a)(2) of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended), as custodian with respect to any such
U.S. Government Obligation or a specific payment of principal of or interest on
any such U.S. Government Obligation held by such custodian for the account of
the holder of such depository receipt; provided that (except as required
by law) such


 


76

















 


custodian is not authorized to make any
deduction from the amount payable to the holder of such depository receipt from
any amount received by the custodian in respect of the U.S. Government
Obligation or the specific payment of principal of or interest on the U.S.
Government Obligation evidenced by such depository receipt;


 


(2)           No Default or Event of Default with respect to the
Securities shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit
or, insofar as Subsection 501(f) or 501(g) is concerned, at any
time during the period ending on the 91st day after the date of such deposit
(it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied
until the expiration of such period);


 


(3)           Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in
a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, this Indenture or
any other material agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or
by which it is bound;


 


(4)           In the case of an election under Section 1202, the
Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United
States stating that (x) the Company has received from, or there has been
published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (y) since February 12,
2009, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in
either case, to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm
that, the Holders of the Outstanding Securities will not recognize income, gain
or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance and will
be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at
the same times as would have been the case if such defeasance had not occurred;


 


(5)           In the case of an election under Section 1203, the
Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United
States to the effect that the Holders of the Outstanding Securities will not
recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of
such covenant defeasance and will be subject to 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;


 


(6)           In the case of an election under either Section 1202
or 1203, the Company shall represent to the Trustee that the deposit made by
the Company pursuant to its election under Section 1202 or 1203 was not
made by the Company with the intent of preferring the Holders over other creditors
of the Company or with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or
defrauding creditors of the Company or others; and


 


(7)           The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an
Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel in the United States, each
stating that all conditions precedent provided for relating to either the
defeasance under Section 1202 or the covenant defeasance under Section 1203
(as the case may be) have been complied with.


 


77

















 


Section 1205.  Deposited Money and U.S. Government
Obligations to Be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions.


 


Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003,
all money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited
with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of
this Section 1205, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 1204 in respect
of the Outstanding Securities shall be held in trust and applied by the
Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this
Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent
(including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may
determine, to the Holders of such Securities of all sums due and to become due
thereon in respect of principal and interest, but such money need not be
segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.  Money and U.S. Government Obligations so held
in trust are not subject to Article Twelve.


 


The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee
against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or
U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 1204 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 of the
Outstanding Securities.


 


Anything in this Article Twelve to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to
time upon Company Request any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by
it as provided in Section 1204 which, in the opinion 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 1204(1)), are in excess of the amount thereof
which would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent defeasance
or covenant defeasance.


 


Section 1206.  Reinstatement.


 


If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply
any money in accordance with Section 1202 or 1203, 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 Company’s obligations under this
Indenture and the Securities shall be revived and reinstated as though no
deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 1202 or 1203, as the case may be,
until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such
