                          TENTH SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE

                                   WITNESSETH

     WHEREAS, the Company has heretofore executed and delivered to the Trustee
an Indenture (the "Indenture"), dated as of March 21, 2003 providing for the

Indenture, dated as of January 20, 2006; and Ninth Supplemental Indenture, dated
as of June 13, 2006.

     WHEREAS, the Indenture provides that under certain circumstances the
Guaranteeing Subsidiaries shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a
supplemental indenture pursuant to which the Guaranteeing Subsidiaries shall
unconditionally guarantee all of the Company's Obligations under the Notes on
the terms and conditions set forth herein (the "Subsidiary Guarantee"); and

     WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Indenture, the Trustee is
authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture.

     NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the
Guaranteeing Subsidiaries and the Trustee mutually covenant and agree for the
equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes as follows:

     1. CAPITALIZED TERMS. Capitalized terms used herein without definition
shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

     2. AGREEMENT TO GUARANTEE. Each of the Guaranteeing Subsidiaries hereby
agree as follows:

          (a)  Along with all Subsidiary Guarantors named in the Indenture, to
               jointly and severally Guarantee to each Holder of a Note
               authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and
               its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and
               enforceability of the Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of
               the Company hereunder or thereunder, that:

               (i)  the principal of and interest on the Notes will be promptly
                    paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration,
                    redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue
                    principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful,
                    and all other obligations of the Company to the Holders or
                    the

<PAGE>


                    Trustee hereunder or thereunder will be promptly paid in
                    full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof
                    and thereof; and

               (ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of
                    any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same will
                    be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance
                    with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at
                    stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise.

               Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any
               performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Subsidiary
               Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the
               same immediately. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that this is a
               guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

          (b)  The obligations hereunder shall be joint and several and
               unconditional, irrespective of the validity or enforceability of
               the Notes or the obligations of the Company under the Indenture,
               the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or
               consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions
               hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the
               Company, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance
               which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge
               or defense of a Subsidiary Guarantor.

          (c)  The following is hereby waived: diligence, presentment, demand of
               payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency
               or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding
               first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands
               whatsoever.

          (d)  This Subsidiary Guarantee shall not be discharged except by
               complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes
               and the Indenture.

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

          (f)  The Guaranteeing Subsidiaries shall not be entitled to any right
               of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any
               obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all
               obligations guaranteed hereby.

          (g)  As between the Subsidiary Guarantors, on the one hand, and the
               Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of
               the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided
               in Article 6 of the Indenture for the purposes of this Subsidiary
               Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other
               prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the
               obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any
               declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in
               Article 6 of the Indenture, such obligations (whether or not due
               and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the
               Subsidiary Guarantors for the purpose of this Subsidiary
               Guarantee.

          (h)  The Subsidiary Guarantors shall have the right to seek
               contribution from any non-paying Subsidiary Guarantor so long as
               the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the
               Holders under the Subsidiary Guarantee.


                                       2

          (i)  Pursuant to Section 10.04 of the Indenture, after giving effect
               to any maximum amount and any other contingent and fixed
               liabilities that are relevant under any applicable Bankruptcy or
               fraudulent conveyance laws, and after giving effect to any
               collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments
               made by or on behalf of any other Subsidiary Guarantor in respect
               of the obligations of such other Subsidiary Guarantor under
               Article 10 of the Indenture shall result in the obligations of
               such Subsidiary Guarantor under Subsidiary Guarantee not
               constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

     3. EXECUTION AND DELIVERY. Each of the Guaranteeing Subsidiaries agrees
that the Subsidiary Guarantees shall remain in full force and effect
notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such
Subsidiary Guarantee.

     4. GUARANTEEING SUBSIDIARY MAY CONSOLIDATE, ETC. ON CERTAIN TERMS.

          (a)  The Guaranteeing Subsidiaries may not consolidate with or merge
               with or into (whether or not such Senior Subordinated Note
               Guarantor is the surviving Person) another corporation, Person or
               entity whether or not affiliated with such Subsidiary Guarantor
               unless:

               (i)  subject to Section 10.04 of the Indenture, the Person formed
                    by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other
                    than a Subsidiary Guarantor or the Company) unconditionally
                    assumes all the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor,
                    pursuant to a supplemental Indenture in form and substance
                    reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, under the Notes, the
                    Indenture and the Subsidiary Guarantee on the terms set
                    forth herein or therein; and

               (ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no
                    Default or Event of Default exists.

          (b)  In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance and
               upon the assumption by the successor corporation, by supplemental
               Indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory
               in form to the Trustee, of the Subsidiary Guarantee endorsed upon
               the Notes and the due and punctual performance of all of the
               covenants and conditions of the Indenture to be performed by the
               Subsidiary Guarantor, such successor corporation shall succeed to
               and be substituted for the Subsidiary Guarantor with the same
               effect as if it had been named herein as a Subsidiary Guarantor.
               Such successor corporation thereupon may cause to be signed any
               or all of the Subsidiary Guarantees to be endorsed upon all of
               the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have
               been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee. All the
               Subsidiary Guarantees so issued shall in all respects have the
               same legal rank and benefit under the Indenture as the Subsidiary
               Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with
               the terms of the Indenture as though all of such Subsidiary
               Guarantees had been issued at the date of the execution hereof.

          (c)  Except as set forth in Articles 4 and 5 of the Indenture, and
               notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, nothing contained in
               the Indenture or in any of the Notes shall prevent any
               consolidation or merger of a Subsidiary Guarantor with or into
               the Company or another Subsidiary Guarantor, or shall prevent any
               sale


                                       3

<PAGE>

               or conveyance of the property of a Subsidiary Guarantor as an
               entirety or substantially as an entirety to the Company or
               another Subsidiary Guarantor.

     5. RELEASES.

          (a)  In the event of a sale or other disposition of all of the assets
               of any Subsidiary Guarantor, by way of merger, consolidation or
               otherwise, or a sale or other disposition of all to the capital
               stock of any Subsidiary Guarantor, then such Subsidiary Guarantor
               (in the event of a sale or other disposition, by way of merger,
               consolidation or otherwise, of all of the capital stock of such
               Subsidiary Guarantor) or the corporation acquiring the property
               (in the event of a sale or other disposition of all or
               substantially all of the assets of such Subsidiary Guarantor)
               will be released and relieved of any obligations under its
               Subsidiary Guarantee; provided that the Net Proceeds of such sale
               or other disposition are applied in accordance with the
               applicable provisions of the Indenture, including without
               limitation Section 4.10 of the Indenture. Upon delivery by the
               Company to the Trustee of an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion
               of Counsel to the effect that such sale or other disposition was
               made by the Company in accordance with the provisions of the
               Indenture, including without limitation Section 4.10 of the
               Indenture, the Trustee shall execute any documents reasonably
               required in order to evidence the release of any Subsidiary
               Guarantor from its obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee.

          (b)  Any Subsidiary Guarantor not released from its obligations under
               its Subsidiary Guarantee shall remain liable for the full amount
               of principal of and interest on the Notes and for the other
               obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor under the Indenture as
               provided in Article 10 of the Indenture.

     6. NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. No past, present or future director,
officer, employee, incorporator, stockholder or agent of the Guaranteeing
Subsidiaries, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the
Company or any of the Guaranteeing Subsidiaries under the Notes, any Subsidiary
Guarantees, the Indenture or this Supplemental Indenture or for any claim based
on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each
Holder of the Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability.
The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes.
Such waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal
securities laws and it is the view of the Commission that such a waiver is
against public policy.

     7. NEW YORK LAW TO GOVERN. THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN
AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THIS SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE.

     8. COUNTERPARTS. The parties may sign any number of copies of this
Supplemental Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them
together represent the same agreement.

     9. EFFECT OF HEADINGS. The Section headings herein are for convenience only
and shall not affect the construction hereof.

     10. THE TRUSTEE. The Trustee shall not be responsible in any manner
whatsoever for or in respect of the validity or sufficiency of this Supplemental
Indenture or for or in respect of the recitals contained herein, all of which
recitals are made solely by the Guaranteeing Subsidiaries and the Company.
