The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage and as provided herein. The Issuer shall approve the form of the Notes and any notation, legend or endorsement thereon. Each Note will be dated the date of its authentication. The terms and provisions contained in the Notes will constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture and the 
30






Issuer and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision of any Note conflicts with the express provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling.
b.Global Notes. Notes issued in global form will be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (including the Global Note Legend thereon and the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Each Global Note will represent such of the Outstanding Notes as will be specified therein and each shall provide that it represents the aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Notes represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges and redemptions and purchases and cancellations. Any endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Notes represented thereby will be made by the Trustee or the Custodian or the Paying Agent at the direction of the Trustee, in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.06 hereof.
c.144A Global Notes and Regulation S Global Notes. Notes sold within the United States to QIBs pursuant to Rule 144A under the U.S. Securities Act shall be issued initially in the form of a Rule 144A Global Note. Notes offered and sold in reliance on Regulation S shall be issued initially in the form of a Regulation S Global Note. The Global Notes shall be deposited with the Custodian for DTC and registered in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of DTC, duly executed by the Issuer and authenticated by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent as hereinafter provided. The aggregate principal amount of each Global Note may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” to each such Global Note, as hereinafter provided.
d.Definitive Registered Notes. Definitive Registered Notes issued upon transfer of a Book-Entry Interest or a Definitive Registered Note, or in exchange for a Book-Entry Interest or a Definitive Registered Note, shall be issued in accordance with this Indenture. Notes issued in definitive registered form will be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (excluding the Global Note Legend thereon and without the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto).
e.Book-Entry Provisions. The Applicable Procedures shall be applicable to Book-Entry Interests in the Global Notes that are held by Participants through the Depositary.
f.Denomination. The Notes shall be in denominations of $200,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 above $200,000.
Section 2.02     Execution and Authentication
At least one Officer must sign the Notes for the Issuer by manual, electronic, digital or facsimile signature. If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time a Note is authenticated, the Note will nevertheless be valid.
A Note will not be valid until authenticated by the manual, electronic or digital signature of the authorized signatory of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent. The signature will be conclusive evidence that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Note shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Issuer, the Issuer shall deliver such Note to the Trustee for cancellation pursuant to Section 2.11 hereof.
31






The Trustee will, upon receipt of a written order of the Issuer signed by an authorized representative (an “Authentication Order”), authenticate or cause the Authenticating Agent to authenticate the Notes for original issue that may be validly issued under this Indenture, including any Additional Notes. The aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding at any time may not exceed the aggregate principal amount of Notes authorized for issuance by the Issuer pursuant to one or more Authentication Orders, except as provided in Section 2.07 hereof.
The Trustee may appoint one or more authentication agents (each, an “Authenticating Agent”) acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate Notes. Such an agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An Authenticating Agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with Holders or an Affiliate of the Issuer. 
Section 2.03    Paying Agent, Registrars and Transfer Agents
The Issuer will maintain one or more paying agents (each, a “Paying Agent”) for the Notes. The Issuer will also maintain one or more transfer agents (each, a “Transfer Agent”). The initial Paying Agent and initial Transfer Agent will be Citibank, N.A., London Branch, who hereby accepts such appointment. 
The Issuer will also maintain one or more registrars (each, a “Registrar”) for so long as the Notes are listed on the Official List of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and admitted to trading on the Euro MTF Market. The Issuer hereby appoints Citigroup Global Markets Europe AG as initial Registrar, who hereby accepts such appointment. The Registrar will maintain a register (the “Register”) reflecting ownership of Definitive Registered Notes Outstanding from time to time and facilitate transfers of Definitive Registered Notes on behalf of the Issuer and will send a copy of the Register to the Issuer on the Issue Date and after any change to the Register made by the Registrar. 
Upon written notice to the Trustee, the Issuer may change the Paying Agents, the Registrars or the Transfer Agents without prior notice to the Holders. For so long as the Notes are listed on the Official List of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and admitted to trading on the Euro MTF Market and the rules of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange so require, the Issuer will, to the extent and in the manner permitted by such rules, post a notice of any change of Paying Agent, Registrar or Transfer Agent on the official website of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (www.bourse.lu) in accordance with Section 14.01 hereof.
Section 2.04    Paying Agent to Hold Money
The Issuer will require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee and the initial Paying Agent to agree in writing that each Paying Agent will hold for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of (and premium or Additional Amounts, if any) or interest on the Notes, and will notify the Trustee in writing of any Default by the Issuer in making any such payment. While any such Default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Issuer or a Subsidiary of the Issuer) will have no further liability for the money. If the Issuer or a Subsidiary of the Issuer acts as Paying Agent, it will segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Issuer (including, without limitation, its bankruptcy, voluntary or judicial liquidation, composition with creditors, reprieve from payment, controlled management, fraudulent conveyance, general settlement with creditors, reorganization or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally), the Trustee will serve as Paying Agent for the Notes. The Issuer shall provide funds to the Paying Agent no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York time) 
32






on the Business Day prior to the day on which the Paying Agent is to make payment. A Paying Agent shall not be obliged to pay the Holders of the Notes (or make any other payment) unless and until such time as it has confirmed receipt of cleared funds sufficient to make the relevant payment.
Section 2.05    Holder Lists
The Registrar will preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of all Holders. If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is not the Registrar, the Issuer will furnish or cause the Registrar to furnish, to the Trustee and the Paying Agent at least seven Business Days before each interest payment date and at such other times as the Trustee or the Paying Agent may request in writing, a list of the names and addresses of the Holders of Notes in such form and as of such date as the Trustee or the Paying Agent may reasonably require.
Section 2.06    Transfer and Exchange

1.To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Issuer will execute and the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent will authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Registered Notes upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02 hereof or at the Registrar’s request.
2.No service charge will be made by the Issuer or the Registrar to a Holder of a Book-Entry Interest in a Global Note, a Holder of a Global Note or a Holder of a Definitive Registered Note for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp duty, stamp duty reserve, documentary or other similar tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.10, 3.06, 4.10 and 4.15 hereof).
3.No Transfer Agent or Registrar will be required to register the transfer of or exchange any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.
4.All Global Notes and Definitive Registered Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Notes or Definitive Registered Notes will be the valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global Notes or Definitive Registered Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.
5.[Reserved].
6.The Trustee, any Agent and the Issuer may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium or Additional Amounts, if any) or interest on such Notes and for all other purposes, and none of the Trustee, any Agent or the Issuer shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
7.All certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to be submitted to the Issuer, the Trustee, the Transfer Agent or the Registrar pursuant to this 
40






Section 2.06 to effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted initially by facsimile with originals to be delivered promptly thereafter to the Trustee.
Section 2.07    Replacement Notes
.
a.If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Registrar, the Trustee or the Issuer and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the Issuer will issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, will authenticate or cause the Authenticating Agent to authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are met. If required by the Trustee or the Issuer, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Issuer to protect the Issuer, the Trustee, any Agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuer and the Trustee may charge the Holder for its expenses in replacing a Note, including but not limited to reasonable fees and expenses of counsel.
b.Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Issuer and will be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder.
Section 2.08    Outstanding Notes
.
The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.09 hereof, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds the Note; however, Notes held by the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries shall not be deemed to be outstanding for the purposes of Section 3.07(b) hereof.

If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue. If a Paying Agent (other than the Issuer, a Subsidiary of the Issuer or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on a redemption date or maturity date, money sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes will be deemed to be no longer outstanding and will cease to accrue interest.

In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Issuer or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Issuer, will be considered as though not Outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee will be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that the Trustee knows are so owned will be so disregarded.
Section 2.10    Temporary Notes
41






.
Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, will authenticate or cause the Authenticating Agent to authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes will be substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as may be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer will prepare and the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent will authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes.
Holders of temporary Notes will be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture.
Section 2.11    Cancellation
The Issuer at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar, each Paying Agent and any Transfer Agent will forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee, in accordance with its customary procedures, or at the direction of the Trustee, the Registrar or the Paying Agent and no one else will cancel (subject to the Trustee’s retention policy) all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and will destroy canceled Notes (subject to the record retention requirement of the U.S. Exchange Act).

The Issuer may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. The Issuer undertakes to promptly inform the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (as long as the Notes are admitted to trading on the Euro MTF Market and listed on the Official List of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange) of any such cancellation.
Section 2.12    Defaulted Interest
If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it will pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof.

The Issuer will fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date; provided that no such special record date may be less than ten (10) days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest. At least fifteen (15) days before the special record date, the Issuer (or, upon the written request of the Issuer, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuer) will mail or cause to be mailed to the Holders in accordance with Section 14.01 hereof a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid. The Issuer undertakes to promptly inform the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (as long as the Notes are admitted to trading on the Euro MTF Market and listed on the Official List of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange) of any such special record date.
Section 2.13    Further Issues
a.Subject to compliance with Section 4.09 hereof, the Issuer may from time to time issue Additional Notes, which shall have identical terms and conditions as the Initial Notes (save for payment of interest accruing prior to the issue date of such Additional Notes or for the first payment of interest following the issue date of such Additional Notes). The Initial Notes and any Additional Notes will be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture, including, without limitation, with respect to waivers, amendments, redemptions, and offers to purchase except as otherwise specified with respect to each series of Notes, provided, however, that any such Additional

The Issuer will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the CUSIP, ISIN or Common Code number.
Section 2.15    Deposit of Moneys
No later than 10:00 a.m. (New York time), on the Business Day prior to each Interest Payment Date, the maturity date of the Notes and each payment date relating to an Excess Proceeds Offer or a Change of Control Offer, and on the Business Day immediately following any acceleration of the Notes pursuant to Section 6.02 hereof, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent, in immediately available same-day freely transferrable funds, money in U.S. Dollars sufficient to make cash payments, if any, due on such day or date, as the case may be.

The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee and the Paying Agent of its failure to so act.

Section 3.04    Effect of Notice of Redemption
A notice of redemption may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent.

The Issuer may make any redemption or redemption notice subject to the satisfaction of conditions precedent. If such redemption or notice is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall state that, in the Issuer’s discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time (but no more than 60 days after the date of the notice of redemption) as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the redemption date, or by the redemption date as so delayed, or such notice may be rescinded at any time in the Issuer’s discretion if in the good faith judgement of the Issuer any or all of such conditions will not be satisfied or waived. In addition, the Issuer may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and performance of the Issuer’s obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.
If a redemption date is not a Business Day, payment may be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, and no interest shall accrue on any amount that would have been otherwise payable on such redemption date if it were a Business Day for the intervening period. If the optional redemption date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related interest payment date, the accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid to the Person in whose name the Note is 
46

c.If the Purchase Date is on or after a record date for the payment of interest and on or before the related payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Excess Proceeds Offer.
d.Upon the commencement of an Excess Proceeds Offer, the Issuer will send, by first class mail, a notice to the Trustee and each of the Holders with a copy to the Trustee. The notice will contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the Excess Proceeds Offer. The notice, which will govern the terms of the Excess Proceeds Offer, will state:
1.that the Excess Proceeds Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3.12 and Section 4.10 hereof and the length of time the Excess Proceeds Offer will remain open;
2.the Offer Amount, the purchase price and the Purchase Date;
3.that any Note not tendered or accepted for payment will continue to accrue interest;
4.that, unless the Issuer defaults in making such payment, any Note accepted for payment pursuant to the Excess Proceeds Offer will cease to accrue interest after the Purchase Date;
5.that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to an Excess Proceeds Offer may elect to have Notes purchased in whole or in part in a minimum amount of $200,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof;
49






6.that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to any Excess Proceeds Offer will be required to surrender the Note, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the Note completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer through the facilities of the Depositary, to the account of the Issuer, or a Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice at least three days before the Purchase Date;
7.that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if the Issuer, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, not later than the expiration of the Offer Period, a facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note the Holder delivered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased;
8.that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other Pari Passu Debt surrendered by holders thereof exceeds the Offer Amount, the Issuer will select the Notes and other Pari Passu Debt to be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the principal amount of Notes and such other Pari Passu Debt surrendered (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Issuer such that Notes will be purchased in whole or in part in a minimum amount of $200,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof); and
9.that Holders whose Definitive Registered Notes were purchased only in part will be issued new Definitive Registered Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer).
e.On or before the Purchase Date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Offer Amount of Notes or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Excess Proceeds Offer, or if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered, and will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Issuer in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.12. The Issuer or its Paying Agent, as the case may be, will promptly (but in any case not later than five days after the Purchase Date) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder in the manner specified in the Notes an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Issuer for purchase. In connection with any purchase of Global Notes pursuant hereto, the Trustee will endorse such Global Notes to reflect the decrease in principal amount of such Global Note resulting from such purchase. In connection with any partial purchase of Definitive Registered Notes, the Issuer will promptly issue a new Definitive Registered Note, and the Trustee, upon written request from the Issuer, will procure the authentication of and mail or deliver such new Definitive Registered Note to the tendering Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Definitive Registered Note surrendered. Any Note tendered but not accepted will be promptly mailed or delivered by the Issuer to the Holder thereof. The Issuer will publicly announce and inform the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (for as long as the Notes (if any) are admitted to trading on the Euro MTF Market and listed on the Official List of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange) of the results of the Excess Proceeds Offer on the Purchase Date.
f.Other than as specifically provided in this Section 3.12, any purchase pursuant to this Section 3.12 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06 hereof (it being understood that any purchase pursuant to this Section 3.12 shall not be subject to conditions precedent).
Section 3.13    Post-Tender Redemption


50






In connection with any tender offer or other offer to purchase for all of the Notes, (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Change of Control Offer or Excess Proceeds Offer (each as defined herein)), if Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes validly tender and do not validly withdraw such Notes in such tender offer and the Issuer, or any third party making such tender offer in lieu of the Issuer, purchases all of the Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn by such Holders, the Issuer or such third party will have the right upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice to the Trustee and the Holders, given not more than 30 days following such tender offer expiration date, to redeem all Notes, that remain Outstanding following such purchase at a price equal to the price paid to each other Holder (excluding any early tender or incentive fee) in such tender offer, plus, to the extent not included in the tender offer payment, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon, to, but excluding, the date of such redemption.

a.The Issuer may not, and may not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, Incur any Debt; provided that the Issuer and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may Incur Debt if at the time of such Incurrence and after giving effect to the Incurrence of such Debt and the application of the proceeds thereof, on a pro forma basis, the Net Leverage Ratio is less than 3.0 to 1.0.

56






c.The Issuer will not incur any Debt (including Permitted Debt) that is contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Debt of the Issuer unless such Debt is also contractually subordinated in right of payment to the Notes on substantially identical terms; provided, however, that no Debt will be deemed to be contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Debt of the Issuer solely by virtue of being unsecured or by virtue of being secured with different collateral or by virtue of being secured on a junior priority basis or by virtue of the application of waterfall or other payment ordering provisions affecting different tranches of Debt.
d.For the purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.09, in the event that an item of Debt meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Permitted Debt or is entitled to be Incurred pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 4.09, the Issuer in its sole discretion may classify and from time to time reclassify such item of Debt or any portion thereof and only be required to include the amount of such Debt as one of such types.

Section 4.10    Limitation on Asset Dispositions
a.The Issuer may not, and may not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any Asset Disposition in one or more related transactions unless:
1.the consideration the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary receives for such Asset Disposition is not less than the Fair Market Value of the assets sold (as determined by the Issuer’s senior management or Board of Directors); and
2.unless the Asset Disposition is a Permitted Asset Swap, at least 75% of the consideration the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary receives in respect of such Asset Disposition consists of:
A.cash or Cash Equivalents;
B.the assumption of the Issuer’s or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Debt or other liabilities (other than contingent liabilities or Debt or liabilities that are subordinated to the Notes) or Debt or other liabilities of such Restricted Subsidiary relating to such assets and, in each case, the Issuer or the Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, is released from all liability on the Debt assumed;
C.any Capital Stock or assets of the kind referred to in clauses (b)(4) or (5) of this Section 4.10;
D.a combination of the consideration specified in clauses (A) through (C) of this clause (2); and
57






b.within 365 days of such Asset Disposition, the Net Available Proceeds are applied (at the Issuer or applicable Restricted Subsidiary’s option):
1.to repay, redeem, retire or cancel outstanding Senior Secured Debt:
2.first, to redeem Notes or purchase Notes pursuant to an offer to all Holders at a purchase price equal to at least 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and second, to the extent any Net Available Proceeds from such Asset Disposition remain, to any other use as determined by the Issuer or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary that is not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture;
3.to repurchase, prepay, redeem or repay Pari Passu Debt; provided that the Issuer makes an offer to all Holders on a pro rata basis to purchase their Notes in accordance with the provisions set forth below for an Excess Proceeds Offer;
4.to acquire all or substantially all of the assets of, or any Capital Stock of, another Related Business, if, after giving effect to any such acquisition of Capital Stock, the Related Business is or becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer;
5.to make a capital expenditure or acquire other assets (other than Capital Stock and cash or Cash Equivalents), rights (contractual or otherwise) and properties, whether tangible or intangible (including ownership interests) that are used or intended for use in connection with a Related Business;
6.to the extent permitted, to redeem Notes as provided under Section 3.07 hereof;
7.enter into a binding commitment to apply the Net Available Proceeds pursuant to clauses (4) or (5) of this clause (b); provided that such binding commitment (or any subsequent binding commitment replacing the initial binding commitment that is entered into within 180 days following the aforementioned 365-day period) shall be treated as a permitted application of the Net Available Proceeds from the date of such commitment until the earlier of (X) the date on which such acquisition or expenditure is consummated and (Y) the 180th day following the expiration of the aforementioned 365-day period; or 
8.any combination of the foregoing clauses (1) through (7) of this clause (b).
c.For purposes of Section 4.10(b), any securities, notes or other obligations received by the Issuer or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are promptly converted by the recipient thereof into cash, Cash Equivalents or readily marketable securities (to the extent of the cash, Cash Equivalents or readily marketable securities received in that conversion), shall be deemed cash.
d.The amount of such Net Available Proceeds not so used as set forth in Section 4.10(b) constitutes “Excess Proceeds.” Pending the final application of any such Net Available Proceeds, the Issuer may temporarily reduce revolving credit borrowings or otherwise use such Net Available Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by the terms of this Indenture.
e.When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $75 million, the Issuer will, within 15 Business Days of the end of the applicable period in clause (b) of this Section 4.10, make an offer to purchase (an “Excess Proceeds Offer”) from all Holders and from the holders of any Pari Passu Debt, to the extent required by the terms thereof, on a pro rata basis, in accordance with Section 3.12 hereof or the agreements governing any such Pari Passu Debt, the maximum principal amount (expressed as a minimum amount of $200,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess 
58






thereof) of the Notes and any such Pari Passu Debt that may be purchased with the amount of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price as to each Note and any such Pari Passu Debt will be payable in cash in an amount equal to (solely in the case of the Notes) 100% of the principal amount of such Note and (solely in the case of Pari Passu Debt) no greater than 100% of the principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) of such Pari Passu Debt, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase.
f.To the extent that the aggregate principal amount of Notes and any such Pari Passu Debt tendered pursuant to an Excess Proceeds Offer is less than the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds, the Issuer may use the amount of such Excess Proceeds not used to purchase Notes and Pari Passu Debt for purposes that are not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and any such Pari Passu Debt validly tendered and not withdrawn by holders thereof exceeds the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds, the Notes and any such Pari Passu Debt to be purchased will be selected by the Issuer on a pro rata basis (based upon the principal amount of Notes and the principal amount or accreted value of such Pari Passu Debt tendered by each holder as provided or calculated by the Issuer). Upon completion of each such Excess Proceeds Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset to zero.
g.If the Issuer is obliged to make an Excess Proceeds Offer, the Issuer will purchase the Notes and Pari Passu Debt, at the option of the holders thereof, in whole or in part in a minimum amount of $200,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof on a date that is not later than 60 days from the date the notice of the Excess Proceeds Offer is given to such holders, or such later date as may be required under the Exchange Act.
h.If the Issuer is required to make an Excess Proceeds Offer, the Issuer will comply with the applicable tender offer rules, including Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other applicable securities laws and regulations, including the requirements of any applicable securities exchange on which Notes are then listed. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.10 and Section 3.12 hereof, the Issuer will comply with such securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations described in this Section 4.10 or Section 3.12 hereof by virtue thereof.

Section 4.12    Limitation on Liens securing Debt
a.The Issuer may not, and may not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, Incur, suffer to exist or become effective any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) to secure any Debt on or with respect to any property or assets now owned or hereafter acquired unless the Notes are equally and ratably secured by such Lien; provided that, if the Debt secured by such Lien is subordinated or junior in right of payment to the Notes, then the Lien securing such Debt shall be subordinated or junior in right of payment to the Lien securing the Notes.
b.Any Lien created for the benefit of the Holders pursuant to this Section 4.12 will provide by its terms that such Lien will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of the initial Lien to which it relates other than as a consequence of an enforcement action with respect to the assets subject to such initial Lien.
c.For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.12, (x) a Lien need not be Incurred solely by reference to one category of Permitted Liens but may be Incurred under any combination of such categories (including in part under one such category and in part under any other such category) and (y) in the event that a Lien (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of one or more of such categories of Permitted Liens the Issuer shall, in its sole discretion, divide, classify or 
59






may subsequently reclassify at any time such Lien (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this Section 4.12 and the definition of “Permitted Liens”.
d.With respect to any Lien securing Debt that was permitted to secure such Debt at the time of the Incurrence of such Debt, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Debt. The “Increased Amount” of any Debt shall mean any increase in the amount of such Debt in connection with any accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Debt with the same terms or in the form of common stock, the payment of dividends on Preferred Stock in the form of additional shares of Preferred Stock of the same class, accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference, any fees, underwriting discounts, accrued and unpaid interest, premiums and other costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith and increases in the amount of Debt outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies or increases in the value of property securing Debt.

b.[Reserved].
c.The Issuer will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event if (x) another party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer or (y) a notice of redemption has been given pursuant to Section 3.07 unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditioned upon the consummation of such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Change of Control Offer is made.
Section 4.16    Limitation on Guarantees of the Issuer’s Debt by Subsidiaries
a.The Issuer will not permit any Significant Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, provide a Guarantee of any of the Issuer’s Debt for which such Significant Subsidiary’s maximum exposure in respect of such Guarantee exceeds $50 million unless such Significant Subsidiary simultaneously executes and delivers to the Trustee a supplemental indenture providing for its payment Guarantee of the Notes; provided:
1.if the Issuer’s Debt is pari passu in right of payment to the Notes, such Significant Subsidiary’s Guarantee of the Issuer’s Debt shall rank pari passu in right of payment to its Guarantee of the Notes;
60






2.if the Issuer’s Debt is subordinated in right of payment to the Notes, such Significant Subsidiary’s Guarantee of the Issuer’s Debt shall be subordinated in right of payment to its Guarantee of the Notes substantially to the same extent as the Issuer’s Debt is subordinated in right of payment to the Notes;
3.a Significant Subsidiary’s Guarantee of the Notes may be limited in amount to the extent required by fraudulent conveyance, thin capitalization, corporate benefit, financial assistance or other similar laws (but, in such a case, the Guarantee of the Notes shall be given on an equal and ratable basis with its Guarantee of the Issuer’s Debt to the extent permitted by applicable law); and
4.for so long as it is not permissible under applicable law for such Significant Subsidiary to provide a Guarantee of the Notes, such Significant Subsidiary need not provide such a Guarantee of the Notes (but, in such a case, the Issuer shall procure that such Significant Subsidiary will use its reasonable best efforts to undertake all whitewash or similar procedures legally available to it to eliminate the relevant legal prohibition, and shall give a Guarantee of the Notes at such time (and to the extent) that it thereafter becomes permissible).
b.Clause (a) of this Section 4.16 shall not apply to (1) the granting by such Significant Subsidiary of a Permitted Lien under circumstances which do not otherwise constitute the Guarantee of the Issuer’s Debt, (2) the Guarantee by any Significant Subsidiary of any Permitted Refinancing Debt that refinances Debt of the Issuer which benefitted from a Guarantee by any Significant Subsidiary Incurred in compliance with this covenant immediately prior to such refinancing, or (c) any Guarantee by a Significant Subsidiary existing as of the Issue Date.
c.Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Guarantee of the Notes created pursuant to the provisions described above shall provide by its terms that such Guarantee shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon: (x) such Subsidiary ceasing to be a Significant Subsidiary (including as a result of any sale, exchange or transfer, to any Person, of all of the Issuer’s Capital Stock in such Significant Subsidiary) in compliance with this Indenture; or (y) the release by the holders or lenders of the Issuer’s Debt described in the preceding paragraph of their Guarantee by such Significant Subsidiary (including any deemed release upon payment in full of all obligations under such Debt (but not under the relevant Guarantee)), at a time when (I) no other Debt of the Issuer has been Guaranteed by such Significant Subsidiary or (II) the holders of all such other Debt which is Guaranteed by such Significant Subsidiary also release their Guarantee by such Significant Subsidiary (including any deemed release upon payment in full of all obligations under such Debt (but not under the relevant Guarantee)).
Section 4.17    [Reserved]
Section 4.18    Payments for consent
The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration to or for the benefit of any Holder or beneficial holder of Notes for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms of the provisions of this Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid and is paid to all Holders and beneficial holders of Notes that consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer and its Subsidiaries shall be permitted, in any offer or payment of consideration for, or as an inducement to, any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture, to exclude Holders and beneficial holders of Notes in any jurisdiction where (i) the solicitation of such consent, waiver or amendment, including in connection with an offer to purchase for cash, or (ii) the 
61






payment of the consideration therefor would require the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries to file a registration statement, prospectus or similar document under any applicable securities laws (including, but not limited to, the United States federal securities laws and the laws of the European Union or its member states or the United Kingdom), which the Issuer in its sole discretion determines (acting in good faith) (A) would be materially burdensome (it being understood that it would not be materially burdensome to file the consent document(s) used in other jurisdictions, any substantially similar documents or any summary thereof with the securities or financial services authorities in such jurisdiction); or (B) such solicitation would otherwise not be permitted under applicable law in such jurisdiction.
Section 4.19    [Reserved]
Section 4.20    Maintenance of listing
The Issuer will use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and maintain the listing of the Notes on the Official List of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange for so long as any Notes remain Outstanding; provided that if the Issuer is unable to obtain admission to listing of the Notes on the Official List of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange or if at any time the Issuer determines that it will not maintain such listing, it will use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and maintain a listing of the Notes on another recognized stock exchange.
Section 4.21    Financial Calculations for Limited Condition Transactions
a.In connection with any action being taken in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of determining compliance with any provision of this Indenture which requires that no Default or Event of Default, as applicable, has occurred, is continuing or would result from any such action, as applicable, such condition shall, at the option of the Issuer, be deemed satisfied, so long as no Default or Event of Default, as applicable, exists on the date the definitive agreement (or other relevant definitive documentation) for such Limited Condition Transaction is entered into. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Issuer has exercised its option under the first sentence of this paragraph, and any Default or Event of Default occurs following the date such definitive agreement for a Limited Condition Transaction is entered into and prior to the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to not have occurred or be continuing for purposes of determining whether any action being taken in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction is permitted hereunder.
b.In connection with any action being taken in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction for purposes of:
1.determining compliance with any provision of this Indenture which requires the calculation of any financial ratio or test, including the Net Leverage Ratio; or
2.testing baskets set forth in this Indenture (including baskets measured as a percentage of Total Assets);
in each case, at the option of the Issuer (the Issuer’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an “LCT Election”), the date of determination of whether any such action is permitted hereunder, shall be deemed to be the date the definitive agreement (or other relevant definitive documentation) for such Limited Condition Transaction is entered into (the “LCT Test Date”); provided, however, that the Issuer shall be entitled to subsequently elect, in its sole discretion, the date of consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction instead of the LCT Test Date as the applicable date of determination, and if, after giving pro forma effect to the Limited Condition Transaction and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including 
62






any Incurrence of Debt and the use of proceeds thereof), as are appropriate and consistent with the pro forma adjustment provisions set forth in the definition of “Consolidated EBITDA” and “Net Leverage Ratio”, the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary could have taken such action on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with such ratio, test or basket, such ratio, test or basket shall be deemed to have been complied with.
c.If the Issuer has made an LCT Election and any of the ratios, tests or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio, test or basket, including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA or Total Assets, of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such baskets or ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations. If the Issuer has made an LCT Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio, test or basket availability under this Indenture (including with respect to the Incurrence of Debt or Liens, or the making of Asset Dispositions, acquisitions, mergers, the conveyance, lease or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary or the Designation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary) on or following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such ratio, test or basket shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any Incurrence of Debt and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated.
Section 4.22    Additional Amounts
a.The Issuer with respect to payments under the Notes agrees that, if any deduction or withholding of any present or future taxes, levies, imposts or charges whatsoever imposed by or for the account of any jurisdiction in which the Issuer is organized, engaged in business or resident for tax purposes, or from or through which payment on the Notes is made by or on behalf of the Issuer (including the jurisdiction of any paying agent) or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein having the power to tax (each, a “Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction”) and any interest, penalties and other liabilities with respect thereto (collectively, “Taxes”) shall be required to be made, the Issuer will (subject to the limitations described below) pay such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) in respect of principal (and premium, if any) and interest as may be necessary in order that the net amounts received pursuant to the Notes after such deduction or withholding (including any withholding or deduction from such Additional Amounts) shall equal the respective amounts of principal (and premium, if any) and interest specified in the Notes that would have been received if such Taxes had not been required to be withheld or deducted; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be required to make any payment of Additional Amounts for or on account of:
1.any Taxes imposed by or for the account of a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction which would not be payable but for the fact that the holder or beneficial owner of a Note (or a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, partner of, member or shareholder of, or possessor of a power over, the relevant holder, if the relevant holder is an estate, trust, nominee, partnership, limited liability company or corporation) is a citizen, domiciliary, national or resident of, incorporated in, or engaging in business or maintaining a permanent establishment or being physically present in, such Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction or otherwise having some present or former connection with such Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction other than the holding or ownership of such Note or the receipt of principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on such Note or the exercise of rights under or the enforcement of such Note or this Indenture;
2.any Tax that would not have been imposed but for the presentation of a Note (where presentation is required) for payment on a date more than 30 days after the date on 
63






which such payment became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever occurs later, except to the extent that the holder would have been entitled to such Additional Amounts on presenting the same for payment on any day (including the last day) within such 30-day period;
3.[Reserved];
4.any Tax that would not have been imposed but for a failure by the relevant holder or beneficial owner of the Note to comply with any applicable certification, information, identification, documentation or other reporting requirements, whether required by statute, treaty, regulation or administrative practice, of a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, if such compliance is legally required as a precondition to relief or exemption from such Tax (including without limitation a certification that such holder or beneficial owner is not resident in the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction); provided, however, that this clause (4) shall not apply if the Issuer shall not have provided the holder of the Note with written notice of the applicable requirement at least 60 days prior to the date that the holder or beneficial owner of the Note is required to comply with such applicable requirement;
5.any estate, inheritance, gift, sale, transfer, personal property or similar taxes;
6.[Reserved];
7.any Taxes payable other than by deduction or withholding from payments under, or with respect to, the Notes;
8.any Taxes imposed or withheld by reason of the failure of the holder or beneficial owner of the Note to comply with the requirements of Sections 1471 through 1474 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), as of the date hereof (or any amended or successor version that is substantively comparable and not materially more onerous to comply with), the U.S. Treasury Regulations issued thereunder or any official interpretation thereof, any law implementing an intergovernmental approach thereto or any agreement entered into pursuant to Section 1471 of the Code; or
9.any combination of clauses (1) through (8) above.
b.In addition, the Issuer shall not have any obligation to pay Additional Amounts to a holder that is a fiduciary or partnership or an entity that is not the sole beneficial owner of the payment of the principal or interest on a Note to the extent that the laws of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction require the payment to be included in the income of a beneficiary or settlor for tax purposes with respect to such fiduciary or a member of such partnership or a beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to the Additional Amounts had it been the holder of such Note.
c.If the Issuer becomes aware that it will be obligated to pay any Additional Amounts with respect to any payment under the Notes, the Issuer will deliver to the Trustee and the Paying Agent on a date that is at least 30 days prior to the date of that payment (unless that obligation to pay Additional Amounts arises less than 45 days prior to that payment date, in which case the Issuer shall notify the Trustee and the Paying Agent promptly thereafter) an Officer’s Certificate stating that the fact that Additional Amounts will be payable and the amount estimated to be so payable. The Officer’s Certificate must also set forth any other information reasonably necessary to enable the Paying Agent to pay Additional Amounts to Holders on the relevant payment date. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely solely on such Officer’s Certificate as conclusive proof that such payments are necessary.
64






d.The Issuer will also make or cause to be made such withholding or deduction of Taxes required by law and will remit the full amount of Taxes so deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing authority in accordance with all applicable laws. The Issuer will use its reasonable efforts to obtain tax receipts from each such tax authority evidencing the payment of any Taxes so deducted or withheld. The Issuer will, upon request, make available to the Trustee and the paying agent, as soon as reasonably practicable after the date on which the payment of any Taxes so deducted or withheld is due pursuant to applicable law, certified copies of tax receipts evidencing such payment by the Issuer or if, notwithstanding the Issuer’s efforts to obtain such receipts, the same are not obtainable, other evidence reasonably available to the Issuer and reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee and the paying agent of such payment by the Issuer. If reasonably requested by the Trustee or the paying agent, the Issuer will provide to the Trustee and the paying agent such information as may be in the possession of the Issuer (and not otherwise in the possession of the Trustee and paying agent) to enable the Trustee and paying agent to determine the amount of withholding taxes attributable to any particular Holder, provided however that in no event shall the Issuer be required to disclose any information that it reasonably deems confidential or is otherwise not legally entitled to disclose.
e.In addition to the foregoing, the Issuer will pay, any present or future stamp, issue, registration, transfer, documentation, court, excise or property taxes imposed in connection with the execution, issue, delivery, registration or enforcement of the Notes or this Indenture.
f.The foregoing provisions will survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of this Indenture and will apply mutatis mutandis to any jurisdiction in which any successor Person to the Issuer is organized, engaged in business or resident for tax purposes or from or through which payment on the Notes is made by or on behalf of such successor Person (including the jurisdiction of any paying agent) or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein having the power to tax.
g.Whenever in this Indenture or the Notes there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of principal (and premium, if any), redemption price, interest or any other amount payable under any Note, such mention will be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are or would be payable in respect thereof.
Section 4.23    Suspension of certain covenants when Notes rated investment grade
a.If on any date following the Issue Date (the “Suspension Date”):
1.the Notes are rated Investment Grade by two of three Rating Agencies; and
2.no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on such date, then, the Issuer will notify the Trustee (provided that no such notification shall be a condition for the suspension of the covenants set forth below) and beginning on such Suspension Date and continuing until such time, if any, at which the Notes cease to be rated Investment Grade by either Rating Agency (such period, the “Suspension Period”), the covenants specifically listed under the following sections hereof will no longer be applicable to the Notes and any related default provisions of this Indenture will cease to be effective and will not be applicable to the Issuer:
A.Section 4.10;
B.Section 4.09; and
C.clause (3) of Section 5.01(a).
65






b.Such covenants will not, however, be of any effect with regard to the actions of Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries properly taken during the continuance of the Suspension Period; provided that all Debt Incurred during the Suspension Period will be classified to have been Incurred pursuant to Section 4.09(b)(2). Upon the occurrence of a Suspension Period, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero.
Section 4.24    Limitation on Designation of Unrestricted Subsidiaries
a.The Issuer may designate, after the Issue Date, any Subsidiary of the Issuer (including any newly created or acquired Subsidiary) as an “Unrestricted Subsidiary” (a “Designation”) only if, at the time of or after giving effect to such Designation:
1.no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;
2.the Issuer could Incur US$1.00 of Debt pursuant to Section 4.09(a); and
3.the aggregate Investments (other than Permitted Investments) by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries in all Unrestricted Subsidiaries shall not exceed the greater of (x) $950 million or (y) 10% of Total Assets at any time outstanding.
b.Neither the Issuer nor any Restricted Subsidiary will at any time:
1.provide credit support for, subject any of its property or assets (other than Liens over the Capital Stock, Debt and other securities of any Unrestricted Subsidiary securing Debt of that Unrestricted Subsidiary and its Subsidiaries) to the satisfaction of, or Guarantee, any Debt of any Unrestricted Subsidiary (including any undertaking, agreement or instrument evidencing such Debt);
2.be directly or indirectly liable for any Debt of any Unrestricted Subsidiary;
3.be directly or indirectly liable for any Debt which provides that the holder thereof may (upon notice, lapse of time or both) declare a default thereon or cause the payment thereof to be accelerated or payable prior to its final scheduled maturity upon the occurrence of a default with respect to any Debt of any Unrestricted Subsidiary; or
4.make any Investment (other than a Permitted Investment) in any Unrestricted Subsidiary to the extent such Investment, together with the aggregate Investments in all Unrestricted Subsidiaries then outstanding, exceeds the amount set out in Section 4.24(a)(3).
c.The Issuer may redesignate an Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary (a “Redesignation”) only if all Liens and Debt of such Unrestricted Subsidiary outstanding immediately following such Redesignation if Incurred at such time would have been permitted to be Incurred for all purposes of this Indenture.
d.For purposes of this Section 4.24:
1.“Investments” shall equal the portion (proportionate to the Issuer’s direct or indirect equity interest in a Restricted Subsidiary to be Designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary) of the Fair Market Value of the net assets of such Restricted Subsidiary at the time of the Designation of such Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary;
2.The aggregate Investments (other than Permitted Investments) by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries in all Unrestricted Subsidiaries shall be reduced upon the Redesignation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary by an amount equal to 
66






the lesser of (x) the Issuer’s direct or indirect “Investment” in such Unrestricted Subsidiary at the time of such Redesignation, and (y) the portion (proportionate to the Issuer’s direct or indirect equity interest in such Subsidiary) of the Fair Market Value of the net assets of such Subsidiary at the time of such Redesignation;
3.any property transferred to or from an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall be valued at its Fair Market Value at the time of such transfer, as determined in good faith by the Issuer; and
4.the amount of any Investment outstanding at any time shall be reduced by any dividend, distribution, interest payment, return of capital, repayment or other amount received by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary in respect of such Investment.
e.The Designation of a Subsidiary of the Issuer as an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall be deemed to include the Designation of all Subsidiaries of such Subsidiary as Unrestricted Subsidiaries.
f.All Designations and Redesignations shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuer, delivered to the Trustee certifying compliance with this Section 4.24.
Section 4.25    FATCA
a.Mutual Undertaking Regarding Information Reporting and Collection Obligations. Each party shall, within ten (10) business days of a written request by another party, supply to that other party such forms, documentation and other information relating to it, its operations, or the Notes as that other party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other party’s compliance with Applicable Law and shall notify the relevant other party reasonably promptly in the event that it becomes aware that any of the forms, documentation or other information provided by such party is (or becomes) inaccurate in any material respect; provided, however, that no party shall be required to provide any forms, documentation or other information pursuant to this paragraph to the extent that: (i) any such form, documentation or other information (or the information required to be provided on such form or documentation) is not reasonably available to such party and cannot be obtained by such party using reasonable efforts; or (ii) doing so would or might in the reasonable opinion of such party constitute a breach of any: (a) Applicable Law; (b) fiduciary duty; or (c) duty of confidentiality. 
b.Notice of Possible Withholding Under FATCA. The Issuer shall notify the Paying Agent in the event that it determines that any payment to be made by the Paying Agent under the Notes is a payment which could be subject to FATCA Withholding if such payment were made to a recipient that is generally unable to receive payments free from FATCA Withholding, and the extent to which the relevant payment is so treated, provided, however, that the Issuer’s obligation under this paragraph shall apply only to the extent that such payments are so treated by virtue of characteristics of the Issuer, the Notes, or both. 
c.Paying Agent’s Right to Withhold. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the Paying Agent shall be entitled to make a deduction or withholding from any payment which it makes under the Notes for or on account of any Tax, if and only to the extent so required by Applicable Law. If such a deduction or withholding is required, neither the Paying Agent nor the Trustee will be obligated to pay any Additional Amount to the recipient unless such an Additional Amount is received by the Paying Agent or the Trustee in accordance with this Indenture.

Section 6.02    Acceleration


70






If an Event of Default specified in clause (8) or (9) of Section 6.01 hereof shall occur, the maturity of all Outstanding Notes shall automatically be accelerated and the principal amount of the Notes, together with any premium, accrued interest or Additional Amounts thereon, shall be immediately due and payable. If any other Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding may, by written notice to the Issuer (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), declare the principal amount of the Notes, together with accrued interest thereon, immediately due and payable. The right of the Holders to give such acceleration notice shall terminate if the event giving rise to such right shall have been cured before such right is exercised. Any such declaration may be annulled and rescinded by written notice from the Trustee or the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding to the Issuer if all amounts then due with respect to the Notes are paid (other than amount due solely because of such declaration) and all other defaults with respect to the Notes are cured.
Section 6.03    Other Remedies
If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal of (and premium or Additional Amounts, if any) or interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture.
The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.
Section 6.04    Waiver of Past Defaults
Subject to certain rights of the Trustee, as provided in this Indenture, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, on behalf of all Holders of the Notes, may waive any past default under this Indenture, except a default in the payment of principal, premium or interest or a default arising from failure to purchase any Note tendered pursuant to an Offer to Purchase; provided that the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration. 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 6.05    Control by Majority
The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes will 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 the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law, this Indenture or that the Trustee determines in good faith may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of Holders not joining in the giving of such direction or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest, except in a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal of (and premium or Additional Amounts, if any) or interest on the Notes, to the extent such action does not conflict with the provisions of this Indenture or applicable law.
Section 6.06    Limitation on Suits
71






Subject to Section 7.01 hereof, in case an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under this Indenture at the request or direction of any Holders, unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity and/or security satisfactory to it. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes will 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, to the extent such action does not conflict with the provisions of this Indenture or applicable law.
No Holder of any Note will have any right to institute any proceeding with respect to this Indenture or the Notes or for any remedy thereunder, unless:
1.such Holder has previously given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default;
2.the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes shall have made a written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee;
3.such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity and/or security satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense arising in connection with such proceeding;
4.the Trustee for 60 days after receipt of such notice has failed to institute any such proceeding; and
5.no direction inconsistent with such request shall have been given to the Trustee during such 60 day-period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes. However, such limitations do not apply to a suit individually instituted by a Holder of a Note for enforcement of payment of the principal of, or interest on, such Note on or after respective due dates expressed in such Note.
A Holder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder. The Trustee shall have no obligation to ascertain whether the Holder’s actions are unduly prejudicial to other Holders.
Section 6.07    Right of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of (and premium or Additional Amounts, if any) or interest on the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note (including in connection with an offer to purchase), or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes; provided that a Holder shall not have the right to institute any such suit for the enforcement of payment if and to the extent that the institution or prosecution thereof or the entry of judgment therein would, under applicable law, result in the surrender, impairment, waiver or loss of the Lien of this Indenture upon any property subject to such Lien.
Section 6.08    Collection Suit by Trustee
Subject to mandatory provisions of Luxembourg insolvency laws, if an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(1) or Section 6.01(2) hereof occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer for the whole amount of principal of, premium on, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, remaining unpaid on, the Notes and interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, Additional 
72






Amounts, interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.
Section 6.09    Trustee May File Proofs of Claim
The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Notes, their creditors or property and shall be entitled and empowered, subject to mandatory provisions of Luxembourg insolvency laws, to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.
Section 6.10    Priorities
If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article 6, it shall pay out the money in the following order:
First:    to the Trustee, its agents and attorneys for amounts due under Section 7.07 hereof, including payment of all compensation, expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection and then the Agents for any amounts due;
Second:    to Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, respectively; and
Third:    to the Issuer or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct.
The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section 6.10.
Section 6.11    Undertaking for Costs
In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as a Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made 
73






by the party litigant. This Section 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.07 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes.
Section 6.12    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 in a final judgment adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Issuer, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.
Section 6.13    Rights and Remedies Cumulative
Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes in Section 2.07 hereof, 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 of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.
Section 6.14    Delay or Omission Not Waiver
No delay or omission of the Trustee or any Holder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article 6 or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.
ARTICLE 7
Trustee


Section 7.01    Duties of Trustee


a.If an Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee will exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs.
b.Except during the continuance of an Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge:
1.the duties of the Trustee and the Agents will be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture and the Trustee and the Agents need perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee or the Agents; and
74






2.in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. However, the Trustee will examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein).
c.The Trustee may not be relieved from liabilities for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that:
1.this paragraph (c) does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section 7.01;
2.the Trustee will not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and
3.the Trustee will not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Sections 6.02, 6.04 or 6.05 hereof.
d.Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b), and (c) of this Section 7.01.
e.No provision of this Indenture will require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or incur any liability. The Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights and powers under this Indenture at the request of any Holders, unless such Holder has offered to the Trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense.
f.The Trustee will not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Issuer. Money held by the Paying Agent and in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.
g.The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice or any knowledge of any matter (including without limitation Defaults or Events of Default) unless a Responsible Officer assigned to and working in the Trustee’s corporate trust department has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice thereof is received by the Trustee (attention: Trust & Securities Services) and such notice clearly references the Notes, the Issuer and this Indenture.
Section 7.02    Rights of Trustee
a.The Trustee may conclusively rely, and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting, upon any document (whether in its original, electronic or facsimile form) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document.
b.Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both. The Trustee will not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel, as the case may be. The Trustee may consult with counsel or other professional advisors and the written advice of such counsel, professional advisor or any Opinion of Counsel will be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon.
75






c.The Trustee may act through its attorneys and agents and will not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any attorney or agent appointed with due care.
d.The Trustee will not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith that it believes to be authorized or within the rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture provided that the Trustee’s conduct does not constitute negligence or bad faith.

f.The Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity and/or security satisfactory to it against the losses, liabilities and expenses that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.
g.The Trustee shall have no duty to inquire as to the performance of the covenants of the Issuer and/or its Subsidiaries. In addition, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default except: (i) any Event of Default occurring pursuant to Section 6.01(1) or Section 6.01(2) (provided it is acting as Paying Agent); and (ii) any Default or Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer shall have received written notification. Delivery of reports, information and documents to the Trustee under Section 4.03 hereof is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of the foregoing shall not constitute actual or constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Issuer’s compliance with any of their covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officer’s Certificates).
h.The Trustee shall not have any obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance, and shall not be responsible or liable for compliance with restrictions on transfer, exchange, redemption, purchase or repurchase, as applicable, of minimum denominations imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law or regulation with respect to any transfer, exchange, redemption, purchase or repurchase, as applicable, of any interest in any Notes, but may at its sole discretion choose to do so.
i.The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including its right to be indemnified and/or secured under this Indenture, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder and by each agent (including the Agents), custodian and other person employed to act hereunder. Absent willful misconduct or negligence, each Agent shall not be liable for acting in good faith on instructions believed by it to be genuine and from the proper party and no Agent shall be under any fiduciary duty or other obligation towards or have any relationship of agency and trust for or with any person other than the Issuer.

k.In the event the Trustee receives inconsistent or conflicting requests and indemnity from two or more groups of Holders, each representing less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding, pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, the Trustee, in its sole discretion, may determine what action, if any, will be taken and shall not incur any liability for its failure to act until such inconsistency or conflict is, in its reasonable opinion, resolved.
76






l.In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by acts of war or terrorism involving the United States, the United Kingdom or any member state of the European Monetary Union or any other national or international calamity or emergency (including natural disasters or acts of God), it being understood that the Trustee shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.
m.The Trustee is not required to give any bond or surety with respect to the performance or its duties or the exercise of its powers under this Indenture or the Notes.
n.The permissive right of the Trustee to take the actions permitted by this Indenture shall not be construed as an obligation or duty to do so.
o.The Trustee will not be liable to any person if prevented or delayed in performing any of its obligations or discretionary functions under this Indenture by reason of any present or future law applicable to it, by any governmental or regulatory authority or by any circumstances beyond its control.
p.The Trustee shall not under any circumstances be liable for any indirect loss, punitive or special damages or consequential loss (being loss of business, goodwill, opportunity or profit of any kind) of the Issuer or any other Person (or, in each case, any successor thereto), even if advised of it in advance and even if foreseeable.
q.The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Issuer personally or by agent or attorney.
r.The Trustee may request that the Issuer deliver an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the names of the individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture, which Officer’s Certificate may be signed by any person authorized to sign an Officer’s Certificate, including any person specified as so authorized in any such certificate previously delivered and not superseded.
s.No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to do anything which, in its opinion, may be illegal or contrary to applicable law or regulation.

u.The Trustee may retain professional advisors to assist it in performing its duties under this Indenture. The Trustee may consult with such professional advisors or with counsel, and the advice or opinion of such professional advisors or counsel with respect to legal or other matters relating to this Indenture and the Notes shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.
77






v.The Trustee may assume without inquiry in the absence of actual knowledge that the Issuer is duly complying with its obligations contained in this Indenture required to be performed and observed by it, and that no Default or Event of Default or other event which would require repayment of the Notes has occurred.
Section 7.03    Individual Rights of Trustee
The Trustee (or its Affiliates) in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or any Affiliate of the Issuer with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days or resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11 hereof.
Section 7.04    Trustee’s Disclaimer
The Trustee will not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes, except that the Trustee represents that it is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Indenture, authenticate the Notes and perform its obligations hereunder. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the Issuer’s use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Issuer or upon the Issuer’s direction under any provision of this Indenture, it will not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee, and it will not be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Notes or any other document in connection with the sale of the Notes or pursuant to this Indenture other than its certificate of authentication.
Section 7.05    Notice of Defaults
If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if it is known to the Trustee, the Trustee will mail to Holders a notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default in payment of principal of, premium on, if any, interest or Additional Amounts, if any, on any Note, the Trustee may withhold notice if and for so long as it determines that withholding notice is in the interest of Holders.
Section 7.06    [Reserved]
Section 7.07    Compensation and Indemnity
a.The Issuer will pay to the Trustee and the Agents from time to time compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder as shall be agreed from time to time between them. The Trustee’s compensation will not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer will reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all disbursements, advances and expenses properly incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses will include the properly incurred compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel.
b.The Issuer will indemnify the Trustee, its officers, directors, employees and agents against any and all documented claims, losses, liabilities or expenses incurred by it arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Issuer (including this Section 7.07) and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Issuer, any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except to the extent any such loss, liability or expense may be attributable to its negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer shall not be liable for any indirect loss, punitive or special damages or consequential loss (being loss of business, goodwill, opportunity or profit of 
78






any kind) of the Trustee or any other Person (or, in each case, any successor thereto), even if advised of it in advance and even if foreseeable. The Trustee will notify the Issuer promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Issuer will not relieve the Issuer of its obligations hereunder. In case any such claim shall be brought against the Trustee, the Trustee may elect to defend the claim and shall promptly notify the Issuer of its intent to do so, provided that the Trustee and its counsel shall proceed with diligence and good faith with respect thereto, and the Issuer shall be entitled to participate therein. In the event of any disagreement between the Trustee and the Issuer in relation to the conduct of the claim, other than disagreements concerning the Trustee’s failure to promptly assume the defense and employ counsel, the Trustee’s decision shall be final. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Issuer shall pay the properly incurred fees and expenses of such counsel. If the Trustee does not assume the defense of such claim, the Issuer may defend the claim, the Trustee shall cooperate in such defense and the Issuer shall not be liable to the Trustee for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by the Trustee, in connection with the defense thereof unless the immediately following sentence applies. If the interests of the Issuer, on the one hand, and the Trustee, on the other hand, may be adverse, the Trustee may have a single separate counsel and the Issuer will pay the properly incurred fees and expenses of such counsel. The Issuer need not pay for any settlement made without its written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.
c.The obligations of the Issuer under this Section 7.07 will survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.
d.To secure the Issuer’s payment obligations in this Section 7.07, the Trustee will have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal of, premium on, if any, interest or Additional Amounts, if any, on, particular Notes. Such Lien will survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.
e.When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(9) hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.
f.The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits to the Trustee in this Article 7, including, without limitation, its rights to be compensated, reimbursed for expenses and indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, each Agent.
g.The indemnity contained in this Section 7.07 shall survive the discharge or termination of this Indenture and shall continue for the benefit of the Trustee or an Agent notwithstanding its resignation or retirement.
Section 7.08    Replacement of Trustee
a.A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee will become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.08.
b.The Trustee may resign in writing at any time without giving reason and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so notifying the Issuer. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Issuer in writing. The Issuer may remove the Trustee if:
1.the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof;
79






2.the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law;
3.a custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or
4.the Trustee becomes incapable of acting.
c.If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Issuer will promptly appoint a successor Trustee. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes may appoint a successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Issuer.
d.If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, (i) the retiring Trustee, the Issuer, or the Holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee or (ii) the retiring Trustee may appoint a successor Trustee at any time prior to the date on which a successor Trustee takes office, provided that such appointment shall be with the consent of the Issuer (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
e.If the Trustee, after written request by any Holder who has been a Holder for at least six months, fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof, such Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.
f.A successor Trustee will deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuer. Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee will become effective, and the successor Trustee will have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee will mail a notice of its succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee will promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee; provided all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.07 hereof. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Issuer’s obligations under Section 7.07 hereof will continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.
g.For the purposes of this Section 7.08, the Issuer hereby expressly accepts and confirms, for the purposes of Articles 1278 and 1281 of the Luxembourg Civil Code that, notwithstanding any assignment, transfer and/or novation permitted under, and made in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture or any agreement referred to herein to which the Issuer is a party, any security created or guarantee given under this Indenture shall be preserved for the benefit of the successor trustee (for itself and the secured parties) and, for the avoidance of doubt, for the benefit of each of the secured parties.

Section 7.11    Agents

Any Agent may resign and be discharged from its duties under this Indenture at any time by giving thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of such resignation to the Trustee and Issuer. The Trustee or Issuer may remove any Agent at any time by giving thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to any Agent.

If the Issuer is unable to replace the resigning Agent within thirty (30) days after such notice, the Agent may, in its sole discretion, deliver any funds then held hereunder in its possession to the Trustee or may appoint a replacement agent on behalf of the Issuer, provided that such appointment shall be with the consent of the Issuer (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), or may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Agent or for other appropriate relief. The costs and expenses (including its counsels’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Agent in connection with such proceeding shall be paid by the Issuer. Upon receipt of the identity of the successor Agent, the Agent shall deliver any funds then held hereunder to the successor Agent, less the Agent’s fees, costs and expenses or other obligations owed to the Agent.

ARTICLE 8
Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance


Section 8.01    Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance
The Issuer may at any time, at the option of its Board of Directors evidenced by a resolution set forth in an Officer’s Certificate, elect to have either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof be applied to all Outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article 8.
Section 8.02    Legal Defeasance and Discharge
Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the Issuer will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all Outstanding Notes on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer will be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Debt represented by the Outstanding Notes, which will thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (1) and (2) below, and to have satisfied all their other obligations under such Notes and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which will survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:
1.the rights of Holders of Outstanding Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, interest (including Additional Amounts) or premium, if any, on, such Notes when such payments are due from the trust referred to in Section 8.04 hereof;
2.the Issuer’s obligations with respect to the Notes under Article 2 and Section 4.02 hereof;
3.the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the Issuer’s obligations in connection therewith; and
81






4.the Legal Defeasance provisions of this Article 8.
Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Issuer may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.03 hereof.
Section 8.03    Covenant Defeasance
Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Issuer will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from each of its obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.09, 4.10, 4.12, 4.13, 4.15 hereof and clause (4) of Section 5.01(a) hereof with respect to the Outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes will thereafter be deemed not “Outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but will continue to be deemed “Outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes will not be deemed Outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes, the Issuer may omit to comply with and will have no 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 will not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes will be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, Section 6.01(3), (4), (5), (6), (7) and (8) hereof will not constitute Events of Default.
Section 8.04    Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance
In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance under either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof:
1.the Issuer must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee (or such other entity designated or appointed (as agent) by it for such purpose), in trust, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, cash in U.S. Dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination of cash in U.S. Dollars and non-callable Government Securities, in each case, in amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of an internationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, or interest (including Additional Amounts and premium, if any) on the Outstanding Notes on their Stated Maturity or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Issuer must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to such stated date for payment or to a particular redemption date;
2.in the case of an election under Section 8.02 hereof, the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an opinion of U.S. counsel in terms reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that:
A.the Issuer has received from, or there has been published by, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service a ruling; or
B.since the Issue Date, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law,
82






in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel will confirm that, the beneficial owners of the Outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred;
3.in the case of an election under Section 8.03 hereof, the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an opinion of U.S. counsel in terms reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the beneficial owners of the Outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;
4.the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuer with the intent of preferring the Holders of Notes over the other creditors of the Issuer with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any creditors of the Issuer or others; and
5.the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an opinion of counsel, subject to customary assumptions and qualifications, each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with.
Section 8.05    Deposited Money and Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions
Subject to Section 8.06 hereof, all cash in U.S. Dollars and non-callable U.S. Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof in respect of the Outstanding Notes will be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.
The Issuer will pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or the non-callable U.S. Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof 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 Notes.
Notwithstanding anything in this Article 8 to the contrary, the Trustee will deliver or pay to the Issuer from time to time upon the request of the Issuer any cash in U.S. Dollars or non-callable U.S. Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 hereof 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 8.04(1) hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.
83






Section 8.06    Repayment to Issuer
Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Issuer in trust, for the payment of the principal of, premium on, if any, interest or Additional Amounts, if any, on, any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium, if any, interest or Additional Amounts, if any, has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuer on its request or (if then held by the Issuer) will be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note will thereafter be permitted to look only to the Issuer for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such money, and all liability of the Issuer as trustee thereof, will thereupon cease; provided, however, that in the event the Notes are in the form of Definitive Registered Notes, the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Issuer cause to be made available to the newswire service of Bloomberg or, if Bloomberg does not operate, any similar agency and, if and so long as the Notes are listed on the Official List of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and admitted to trading on the Euro MTF Market and the rules of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange so require, to the extent and in the manner permitted by such rules, posted on the official website of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (www.bourse.lu) or mail to each Holder entitled to such money at such Holder’s address (as set forth in the Register) notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which will not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Issuer.
Section 8.07    Reinstatement
If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any U.S. Dollars or non-callable U.S. Government Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes will be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Issuer makes any payment of principal of (and premium or Additional Amounts, if any) or interest on any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer will be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.
ARTICLE 9
Amendment, Supplement and Waiver


Section 9.01    Without Consent of Holders


Notwithstanding Section 9.02 hereof, the Issuer, the Issuer and the Trustee may, without the consent of the Holders of the Notes, amend, waive or supplement this Indenture or the Notes:
1.to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency;
2.to provide for the assumption of the Issuer’s obligations to the Holders of the Notes in the case of a merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Issuer’s assets pursuant to Article 5 hereof;
3.to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under this Indenture of any such Holder in any material respect;
84






4.to conform the text of this Indenture, or the Notes to any provision of the “Description of the Notes” section of the offering memorandum to the extent that such provision in such “Description of the Notes” section was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of this Indenture or the Notes;
5.to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in accordance with the limitations set forth in this Indenture as of the Issue Date;
6.to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes (provided that the uncertificated Notes are issued in registered form for purposes of Section 169(f) of the Code, or in a manner such that the uncertificated Notes are described in Section 163(f)(2)(B) of the Code); 
7.to evidence and provide the acceptance of the appointment of a successor Trustee under this Indenture; 
8.to allow the provision of Guarantees with respect to the Notes; or
9.to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to Holders or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under the Indenture of any such Holder in any material respect.
In formulating its opinion on such matters, the Trustee shall be entitled to request and rely absolutely on such evidence as it deems appropriate, including an Opinion of Counsel and an Officer’s Certificate.
Upon the request of the Issuer accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02 and Section 14.03 hereof, the Trustee will join with the Issuer in the execution of any amended or supplemental indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of this Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee will not be obligated to enter into such amended or supplemental indenture that affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.
Section 9.02    With Consent of Holders
Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Issuer and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture (including, without limitation Section 3.12, Section 4.10 and Section 4.15 hereof)or the Notes with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, Additional Notes, if any) voting as a single class (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, the Notes), and, subject to Section 6.04 and Section 6.07 hereof, any existing Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium on, if any, interest or Additional Amounts, if any, on, the Notes, except a payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with any provision of this Indenture, the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, Additional Notes, if any) voting as a single class (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes); provided that if any amendment, waiver or other modification will only affect one series of the Notes, only the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes of such series shall be required.
85






Upon the request of the Issuer accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders of Notes as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02 hereof, the Trustee will join with the Issuer in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or supplemental indenture directly affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but will not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental Indenture.
It is not necessary for the consent of the Holders of Notes under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it is sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.
After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Issuer will mail to the Holders affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Issuer to mail such notice, or any defect therein, will not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental indenture or waiver. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, on behalf of all Holders of Notes, may waive compliance by the Issuer with certain restrictive provisions of this Indenture. Subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, on behalf of all Holders of the Notes, may waive any past default under this Indenture, except a default in the payment of principal, premium or interest or a default arising from failure to purchase any Note tendered pursuant to an Offer to Purchase. Modifications and amendments of this Indenture may be made by the Issuer, the Issuer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes; provided, however, that no such modification or amendment may, without the consent of the Holders of 90% of the aggregate principal amount of then Outstanding Notes affected thereby:
1.change the Stated Maturity or the principal of, or any installment of interest on, any Note;
2.reduce the principal amount of, (or premium) or interest on (or rate thereof), any Note;
3.change the place or currency of payment of principal of (or premium), or interest on, any Note;
4.impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to any Note;
5.reduce the above stated percentage of Outstanding Notes necessary to modify or amend this Indenture;
6.reduce the percentage of aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Notes necessary for waiver of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or for waiver of certain defaults; or
7.following the mailing of any Offer to Purchase, modify any Offer to Purchase for the Notes required under Sections 4.10 and 4.15 hereof in a manner adverse to the Holders thereof.
For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of articles 470-1 to 470-19 (included) of the Luxembourg Law dated August 10, 1915 on commercial companies, as amended from time to time, shall not apply in respect of the Notes.
86






Section 9.03    Revocation and Effect of Consents
Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and every subsequent Holder that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder.
Section 9.04    Notation on or Exchange of Notes
The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Issuer in exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate or cause the Authenticating Agent to authenticate the new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver.
Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note will not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.
Section 9.05    Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc.
The Trustee will sign any amended or supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. The Issuer may not sign an amended or supplemental indenture until the Board of Directors of the Issuer approves it. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee will be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) will be fully protected in relying upon, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture.

b.Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money has been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 13.01(a)(1)(B), the provisions of Sections Section 13.02 and 8.06 hereof will survive. In addition, nothing in this Section 13.01 will be deemed to discharge those provisions of Section 7.07 hereof, that, by their terms, survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.
Section 13.02    Application of Trust Money
Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06 hereof, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 13.01 hereof shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal of, premium on, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.
If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Securities in accordance with Section 13.01 hereof by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 13.01 hereof; provided that if the Issuer has made any payment of principal of, premium on, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on, the Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

Each of the parties hereto irrevocably agrees that any suit, action or proceeding arising out of, related to, or in connection with this Indenture, the Notes or the transactions contemplated hereby, and any action arising under U.S. federal or state securities laws, may be instituted in any U.S. federal or state court located in the State and City of New York, Borough of Manhattan; irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such proceeding; and irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action or proceeding. The Issuer has appointed CT Corporation System, 111 Eighth Avenue, 13th Floor, New York, New York 10011, United States of America, as its authorized agent upon whom process may be served in any such suit, action or proceeding which may be instituted in any federal or state court located in the State of New York, Borough of Manhattan arising out of or based upon this Indenture, the Notes or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, and any action brought under U.S. federal or state securities laws (the “Authorized Agent”).

4.500% Senior Notes due 2031
Capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.
a.INTEREST. MILLICOM INTERNATIONAL CELLULAR S.A., a public limited liability company (société anonyme) organized under the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, having its registered office at 2, rue du Fort Bourbon, L-1249 Luxembourg and registered with the Luxembourg Register of Commerce and Companies under the number B 40630 (the “Issuer”), promises to pay or cause to be paid interest on the principal amount of this Note at 4.500% per annum from _______________________ until maturity. The Issuer will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on April 27 and October 27 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an “Interest Payment Date”). Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance; provided that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date; provided further that the first Interest Payment Date shall be          . The Issuer will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at the rate then in effect to the extent lawful. The Issuer will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest and Additional Amounts (without regard to any applicable grace periods), from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. Each interest period shall end (but not include) the relevant Interest Payment Date. 
b.METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Issuer will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes on the Business Day immediately preceding the related Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. The Notes will be payable as to principal, premium, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, through the Paying Agents as provided in the Indenture or, at the option of the Issuer, payment of interest and Additional Amounts, if any, may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders; provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of and interest, premium, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any, on, all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which will have provided wire transfer instructions to the Issuer or the Paying Agent. In addition, interest on the Definitive Registered Notes may be paid by check mailed to the person entitled thereto as shown on the Register for the Definitive Registered Notes. The Issuer will make all payments in immediately available same-day freely transferable funds and in U.S. Dollars. 
c.PAYING AGENT, REGISTRAR AND TRANSFER AGENT. Initially, Citibank, N.A., London Branch will act as Paying Agent and Transfer Agent. Citigroup Global Markets Europe AG will act as Registrar. The Issuer shall maintain a Paying Agent and Transfer Agent. Upon notice to the Trustee, the Issuer may change any Paying Agent, Registrar or Transfer Agent.
d.INDENTURE. The Issuer issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of October 27, 2020 (the “Indenture”) between the Issuer, Citibank, N.A., London Branch, as Trustee, Transfer Agent and Paying Agent, and Citigroup Global Markets Europe AG, as Registrar. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture for a statement of such terms. To the extent any 
A-4






provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling.
e.OPTIONAL REDEMPTION.
i.Except as detailed below, the Notes are not redeemable at the Issuer’s option. The Issuer is not, however, prohibited from acquiring the Notes by means other than a redemption, whether pursuant to a tender offer, open market purchase or otherwise, so long as the acquisition does not otherwise violate the terms of the Indenture. The Issuer may make any redemption or redemption notice subject to the satisfaction of conditions precedent. If such redemption or notice is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall state that, in the Issuer’s discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time (but no more than 60 days after the date of the notice of redemption) as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the redemption date, or by the redemption date as so delayed, or such notice may be rescinded at any time in the Issuer’s discretion if in the good faith judgement of the Issuer any or all of such conditions will not be satisfied or waived. In addition, the Issuer may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and performance of the Issuer’s obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.
ii.If a redemption date is not a Business Day, payment may be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, and no interest shall accrue on any amount that would have been otherwise payable on such redemption date if it were a Business Day for the intervening period. If the optional redemption date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related interest payment date, the accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid to the Person in whose name the Note is registered at the close of business on such record date and no additional interest will be payable to Holders whose Notes will be subject to redemption.
iii.At any time prior to April 27, 2026, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice to the Trustee and the Holders, the Issuer may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 40% of the original aggregate principal amount of Notes (including Additional Notes) at a redemption price of 104.500% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date (subject to the right of the Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), with the proceeds from one or more Equity Offerings or any sale of Qualified Capital Stock of any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer. The Issuer may only do this, however, if:
1.at least 50% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes that were initially issued under the Indenture would remain outstanding immediately after the proposed redemption; and
2.the redemption occurs within 180 days after the closing of such Equity Offering or sale of Qualified Capital Stock.
    Any notice for such a redemption may be given prior to completing the Equity Offering or sale of Qualified Capital Stock and be conditioned upon its completion.
1.At any time prior to April 27, 2026, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice to the Trustee and the Holders, the Issuer may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 40% of the original aggregate principal amount of Notes (including Additional Notes) at a redemption price of 104.500% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date (subject to the right of the Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on 
A-5






the relevant interest payment date), with the Net Available Proceeds from one or more Specified Subsidiary Sales. The Issuer may only do this, however, if:
3.at least 50% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes that were initially issued would remain outstanding immediately after the proposed redemption; and
4.the redemption occurs within 365 days from the later of the date of such Specified Subsidiary Sale or the receipt of such Net Available Proceeds.
2.During each 12 month period commencing on the Issue Date and ending on April 27, 2026, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice to the Trustee and the Holders, the Issuer may redeem up to 10% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Notes (including Additional Notes) at a redemption price equal to 103% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, to the applicable redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date).
3.At any time prior to April 27, 2026, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice to the Trustee and the Holders, the Issuer may also redeem all or part of the Notes (including Additional Notes) at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus the Applicable Redemption Premium and accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, to the date of redemption, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date.
4.At any time on or after April 27, 2026, and prior to maturity, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice to the Trustee and the Holders, the Issuer may redeem all or part of the Notes. These redemptions will be in amounts of $200,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof at the following redemption prices (expressed as percentages of their principal amount at maturity), plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, to the redemption date, if redeemed during the 12-month period commencing on April 27 of the years set forth below:
						
	Year	Redemption Price
	2026	102.250%
	2027	101.500%
	2028	100.750%
	2029 and thereafter	100.000%




f.REDEMPTION UPON CHANGES IN WITHHOLDING TAXES.
The Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole but not in part, at its option, at 100% of the outstanding principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption and any Additional Amounts (as defined under Section 4.22(a) of the Indenture) payable with respect thereto, if:
5.as a result of (i) any change in, or amendment to, the laws or treaties (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of any Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (as defined under Section 4.22(a) of the Indenture) affecting taxation which is publicly announced and becomes effective on or after the date of the Indenture or, if such Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction has become a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction after the date of the Indenture, on or after the date on which such Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction became a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction under the Indenture or (ii) any change in, or amendment to, the existing official published position (including any such change or amendment occurring as a result of the introduction of an official position) regarding the application, 
A-6






administration or interpretation of the laws or treaties (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of any Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (including any such change or amendment occurring as a result of a holding, judgment or order by a court of competent jurisdiction or a change in published practice), which change or amendment is publicly announced and, where applicable, becomes effective on or after the date of the Indenture or, if such Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction has become a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction after the date of the Indenture, on or after the date on which such Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction became a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction under the Indenture (either, a “Change in Tax Law”), the Issuer has or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts; and
6.such obligation cannot be avoided by the Issuer taking reasonable measures available to it; provided, however, that for this purpose reasonable measures shall not include any change in the Issuer’s jurisdiction of organization or the location of its principal executive office, or the incurrence of material out of pocket costs by it. No such notice of redemption will be given earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer would be obligated to pay such Additional Amounts if a payment in respect of the Notes were then due.
Prior to the publication or mailing of any notice of redemption of the Notes as described below, the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee (i) an Officers’ Certificate stating that the Issuer is entitled to effect such redemption and (ii) an opinion of legal counsel of recognized standing stating that the Issuer has or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts due to a Change in Tax Law. The Trustee will accept and shall be entitled to rely on this certificate and opinion as sufficient evidence of the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in clauses (1) and (2) above, upon which it will be conclusive and binding on the Holders.
g.SINKING FUND. The Issuer will not be required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.
h.REPURCHASE AT THE OPTION OF HOLDER.
7.Within 60 days of the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuer will be required to make an Offer to Purchase all Outstanding Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of their principal amount plus accrued interest and any Additional Amounts thereon to the date of purchase.
8.When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $75 million, the Issuer will, within 15 Business Days of the end of the applicable period in Section 4.10(b), make an Excess Proceeds Offer to all Holders and from the holders of any Pari Passu Debt, to the extent required by the terms thereof, on a pro rata basis, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3.12 of the Indenture or the agreements governing any such Pari Passu Debt, the maximum principal amount (expressed as a minimum amount of $200,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) of the Notes and any such Pari Passu Debt that may be purchased with the amount of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price as to each Note and any such Pari Passu Debt will be payable in cash in an amount equal to (solely in the case of the Notes) 100% of the principal amount of such Note and (solely in the case of Pari Passu Debt) no greater than 100% of the principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) of such Pari Passu Debt, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase.
i.NOTICE OF REDEMPTION. At least 10 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Issuer will deliver, pursuant to Section 14.01 of the Indenture, a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may
