denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof. 
  
 The
terms and provisions contained in the Notes shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture and the Company, the Guarantors 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.

Trustee or the Note Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.6 hereof.

payment of principal, premium or interest on the Notes, and will notify the Trustee of any default by the Company 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 Company 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 Company or a Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for the money. If
the Company or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Company,
the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes. 
  
 
Section 2.5. Holder Lists. 
  
 The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of all Holders and shall otherwise comply with TIA § 312(a). If the Trustee is not the

Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. All Global Notes will be exchanged by the Company for Definitive Notes if (i) the Company delivers to the Trustee notice from
the Depositary that it is unwilling or unable to continue to act as Depositary or that it is no longer a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case, a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Company within 120 days
after the date of such notice from the Depositary or (ii) the Company in its sole discretion determines that the Global Notes (in whole but not in part) should be exchanged for Definitive Notes and delivers a written notice to such effect to the

provided in Sections 2.7 and 2.10 hereof. Every Note authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion thereof, pursuant to this Section 2.6 or Section 2.7 or 2.10 hereof, shall be authenticated and delivered
in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note. A Global Note may not be exchanged for another Note other than as provided in this Section 2.6(a), however, beneficial interests in a Global Note may be transferred and exchanged as provided in Section
2.6(b) or (c) hereof.

 (2) Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in Global Notes for Definitive Notes. If any holder

cause the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Global Note to be reduced accordingly pursuant to Section 2.06(f) hereof, and the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Person designated in the
instructions a Definitive Note in the appropriate principal amount. Any Definitive Note issued in exchange for a beneficial interest pursuant to this Section 2.06(b)(2) shall be registered in such name or names and in such authorized denomination or
denominations as the holder of such beneficial interest requests through instructions to the Registrar from or through the Depositary and the Participant or Indirect Participant. 
  
 (c) Transfer and Exchange of Definitive Notes for Beneficial Interests in Global Notes. A Holder of a Definitive Note
may exchange such Note for a beneficial interest in a Global Note or transfer such Definitive Note to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in a Global Note at any time. Upon receipt of a request for such an
exchange or transfer, the Trustee shall cancel the applicable Definitive Note and increase or cause to be increased the aggregate principal amount of one of the Global Notes. 
  
 (d) Transfer and Exchange of Definitive Notes for Definitive Notes. Upon request by a Holder of Definitive Notes and
such Holder’s compliance with the provisions of this Section 2.06(d), the Registrar shall register the transfer or exchange of Definitive Notes. Prior to such registration of transfer or exchange, the requesting Holder must present or surrender

 (f) Cancellation and/or Adjustment of Global
Notes. At such time as all beneficial interests in a particular Global Note have been exchanged for Definitive Notes or a particular Global Note has been redeemed, repurchased or canceled in whole and not in part, each such Global Note shall be
returned to or retained and canceled by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.11 hereof. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery
thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note or for Definitive Notes, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note shall be reduced accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note by the
Trustee or by the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another

 Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being
redeemed in part. 
  
 (iv) All Global Notes and
Definitive Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Notes or Definitive Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global
Notes or Definitive Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 
  
 (v) The Company shall not be required (A) to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange any Notes during a period beginning at the
opening of business 15 days before the day of any selection of Notes for redemption under Section 3.2 hereof and ending at the close of business on the day of selection, (B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note so selected for

Authentication Order, shall authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are met. An indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Company to protect the Company, the
Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Company may charge for its expenses in replacing a Note. 
  
 Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Company and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this

Table of Contents


 If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.1 hereof, it ceases to be
outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue. 
  
 If the Paying
Agent (other than the Company, a Subsidiary 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 shall be deemed to be no longer
outstanding and shall cease to accrue interest. 
  
 
Section 2.9. Treasury Notes. 
  
 In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Company, or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under
direct or indirect common control with the Company, shall be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes
that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. 
  
 
Section 2.10. Temporary Notes. 
  
 Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of
certificated Notes but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate
Definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes. 
  
 Holders of
temporary Notes shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture.

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 4.1 hereof. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount
of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment. The Company shall fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date, provided that no such special record date shall be less

Section 2.13. CUSIP Numbers 
  
 The Company in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such
notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on
the Notes, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company will promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers.

Section 3.2. Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed. 
  
 If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed or purchased in an offer to purchase at any time, the Trustee will select the Notes to be redeemed or purchased among the Holders of Notes in compliance with the
requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed, or, if the Notes are not so listed, on a pro rata basis, by lot or in accordance with any other method the Trustee considers fair and
appropriate. In the event of partial redemption by lot, the particular Notes to be redeemed shall be selected, unless otherwise provided herein, not less than 10 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date by the Trustee from the outstanding
Notes not previously called for redemption. 
  
 The Trustee shall
promptly notify the Company in writing of the Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Notes and portions of Notes selected shall be in principal amounts
of $1,000 or whole multiples of $1,000; except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed, the entire outstanding principal amount of Notes held by such Holder, even if not a multiple of $1,000, shall be redeemed. Except as provided in
the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption.

Table of Contents



	(c)	 	if any Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Note to be redeemed and that, after the redemption date upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or
Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion shall be issued upon cancellation of the original Note; 

  
 (d) the name and address of the Paying Agent; 
  
 (e) that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price; 
  
 (f) that, unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment,
interest on Notes called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date; 
  
 (g) the paragraph of the Notes and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed; and 
  
 (h) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice or
printed on the Notes. 
  
 At the Company’s request, the
Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at its expense; provided, however, that the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least 45 days prior to the redemption date (unless a shorter period is
acceptable to the Trustee), an Officers’ Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the preceding paragraph. 
  
 
Section 3.4. Effect of Notice of Redemption. 
  
 Once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 3.3 hereof, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the redemption date at the redemption price. A notice of redemption may not
be conditional. 
  
 
Section 3.5. Deposit of Redemption Price. 
  
 On or before 10:00 a.m. New York time on the redemption date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money, to be held in trust, uninvested, sufficient to pay the redemption price of and
accrued interest on all Notes to be redeemed on that date. Funds so deposited later than 12 noon New York time on the day prior to a redemption will not be invested. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Company any money
deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Company in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption price of, and accrued interest on, all Notes to be redeemed. 
  
 If the Company complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after the redemption date, interest shall
cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption. If a Note is redeemed on or after an interest record date but on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, then any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the
Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such record date. If any Note called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender for redemption because of the failure of the Company to comply with the preceding
paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in
Section 4.1 hereof. 
  
 The Company may obtain a satisfaction and
discharge from all of its obligations under this Indenture and the Notes concurrently with its issuance of any notice to redeem all of the outstanding

“Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the Note completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Company, a depositary, if appointed by the Company, or a Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice at least
three Business Days before the Net Proceeds Offer Payment Date; 
  
 (g) that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Company, 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;

 (h) that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by Holders exceeds the Offer Amount, the

 (i) that Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part shall
be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer). 
  
 On or before the Net Proceeds Offer Payment Date, the Company shall, 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 Net Proceeds Offer, or if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered, and shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that
such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Company in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.9 and Section 3.1 through Section 3.6. The Company or the Depositary, as the case may be, shall promptly (but in any case not
later than three Business Days after the Net Proceeds Offer Payment Date) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Company for purchase, and the Company
shall promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon written request from the Company shall authenticate and mail or deliver such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered. Any Note not
so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Company to the Holder thereof. The Company shall publicly announce the results of the Net Proceeds Offer on the Net Proceeds Offer Payment Date. 
  
 Other than as specifically provided in this Section 3.9, any purchase

 In determining the aggregate amount of Restricted Payments made subsequent to the Issue Date, Restricted Payments made pursuant to clauses (b), (c), (d), (f), (h), (i), (k), (l) and (n) of this paragraph shall, in
each case, be excluded from such calculation; provided, that any amounts expended or liabilities incurred in respect of fees, premiums or similar payments in connection therewith shall be included in such calculation. Restricted Payments under
clauses (d), (d)(i), (f) and (j) shall be limited to the respective amounts of $50 million, $25 million, $25 million and $15 million set forth in such clauses (each, an “Amount Limitation”). The Amount Limitation for each clause shall be

“Amount Limitation Restoration”). In no event shall the aggregate Amount Limitation Restorations for a Restricted Investment exceed the original amount of such Restricted Investment. 
  
 With respect to clauses (d), (d)(i) and (f) above, the respective Amount
Limitation under each such clause, as applicable, shall also be increased when any Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary or an Unrestricted Subsidiary is redesignated as a Restricted Subsidiary (each such increase also referred to as an
“Amount Limitation Restoration”) by the lesser of (i) the fair market value of the Restricted Investment made under clause (d), (d)(i) or (f) in such Person as of the date it becomes a Restricted Subsidiary or in such Unrestricted
Subsidiary as of the date of redesignation, as the case may be, or (ii) the fair market value of such Restricted Investment as of the date such Restricted Investment was originally made in such Person or, in the case of the redesignation of an
Unrestricted Subsidiary into a Restricted Subsidiary which Subsidiary was designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary after the date of this Indenture, the amount of the Company’s Restricted Investment therein as determined under the last
paragraph of this Section 4.7, plus the aggregate fair market value of any additional Investments (each valued as of the date made) made under clause (d), (d)(i) or (f) in such Unrestricted Subsidiary after the date of this Indenture. 
  
 Not less than once each fiscal quarter in which the Company has made a
Restricted Payment, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that each Restricted Payment (and any Amount Limitation Restoration relied upon in making such Restricted Payment) made during the prior fiscal
quarter complies with this Indenture and setting forth in reasonable detail the basis upon which the required calculations were computed, including any applicable calculations of the Argentina Receipts, Argentina Contribution Amount and the
Reclassified Argentina Receipts (upon which the Trustee may conclusively rely without any investigation whatsoever), which calculations may be based upon the Company’s latest available internal quarterly financial statements. In the event that
the Company makes one or more Restricted Payments in an amount exceeding $3 million that have not been covered by an Officers’ Certificate issued pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an
Officers’ Certificate stating that such Restricted Payments (and any Amount Limitation Restoration relied upon in making such Restricted Payment) comply with this

 Indenture and setting forth in reasonable detail the basis upon which the required calculations were computed (upon which
the Trustee may conclusively rely without any investigation whatsoever), which calculations may be based upon the Company’s latest available internal quarterly financial statements. 
  
 The Board of the Company may designate any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to be Unrestricted Subsidiaries if such
designation would not cause a Default. For purposes of making such determination, all outstanding Investments by the Obligors (except to the extent repaid in cash or in kind) in the Subsidiary so designated will be deemed to be Restricted Payments
at the time of such designation and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under the first paragraph of this Section 4.7. All such outstanding Investments will be deemed to constitute Investments in an amount equal to the greatest
of (a) the net book value of such Investments at the time of such designation, (b) the fair market value of such Investments at the time of such designation, and (c) the original fair market value of such Investments at the time they were made. Such
designation will only be permitted if such Restricted Payment would be permitted at such time and if such Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. 
  
 
Section 4.8. Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock. 
  
 The Company will not, directly or indirectly (a) Incur any Indebtedness or issue any Disqualified Capital Stock, other than Permitted Indebtedness, or (b)
cause or permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to Incur any Indebtedness or issue any Disqualified Capital Stock or preferred stock, in each case, other than Permitted Indebtedness. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing limitations, the Company may issue Disqualified Capital Stock, and any Obligor may Incur
Indebtedness (including, without limitation, Acquired Debt) or issue preferred stock, if (a) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of the proposed Incurrence or issuance or would result as a consequence of
such proposed Incurrence or issuance, and (b) immediately after giving pro forma effect to such proposed Incurrence or issuance and the receipt and application of the net proceeds therefrom, the Company’s Consolidated Coverage Ratio would not
be less than 2.00:1.00. 
  
 Any Indebtedness of any Person
existing at the time it becomes a Restricted Subsidiary (whether by merger, consolidation, acquisition of capital stock or otherwise) shall be deemed to be Incurred as of the date such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary. For purposes of
determining compliance with this covenant, in the event that an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Indebtedness described in clauses (a) through (n) of such definition or is entitled to be
Incurred pursuant to the second paragraph of this Section 4.8, the Company will, in its sole discretion, classify such item of Indebtedness in any manner that complies with this covenant and such item of Indebtedness will be treated as having been
Incurred pursuant to only one of such clauses or pursuant to the second paragraph hereof. The Company may reclassify such Indebtedness from time to time in its sole discretion and may classify any item of Indebtedness in part under one or more of
the categories of Permitted Indebtedness and/or in part as Indebtedness entitled to be Incurred pursuant to the second paragraph of this Section 4.8. Accrual of interest and the accretion of principal amount will not be deemed to be an Incurrence of
Indebtedness for purposes of this Section 4.8. 
  
 
Section 4.9. Asset Sales. 
  
 No
Obligor will, directly or indirectly, consummate or enter into a binding commitment to consummate an Asset Sale unless (a) such Obligor, as the case may be, receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market
value of the assets sold or of which other disposition is made (as determined reasonably and in good faith by the Board of such Obligor), and (b) at least 75% of the consideration received by such Obligor from such Asset Sale will be cash or Cash
Equivalents and 
  

 -41-

 will be received at the time of the consummation of any such Asset Sale. For purposes of this provision, each of the
following shall be deemed to be cash: (i) any liabilities as shown on the Obligors’ most recent balance sheet (or in the notes thereto) (other than (A) Indebtedness subordinate in right of payment to the Notes, (B) contingent liabilities, (C)
liabilities or Indebtedness to Affiliates of the Company and (D) Non-Recourse Indebtedness) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets, and (ii) to the extent of the cash received, any notes or other obligations received by the Company or
any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by such Obligor into cash within 60 days of receipt. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Obligor will be permitted to consummate an Asset Sale without complying with the foregoing provisions if (a) such
Obligor receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value of the assets or other property sold, issued or otherwise disposed of (as evidenced by a resolution of the Board of such Obligor) as set forth in
an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee, (b) the transaction constitutes a “like-kind exchange” of the type contemplated by Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code, and (c) the consideration for such Asset Sale constitutes
Productive Assets; provided that any non-cash consideration not constituting Productive Assets received by such Obligor in connection with such Asset Sale that is converted into or sold or otherwise disposed of for cash or Cash Equivalents at any
time within 360 days after such Asset Sale and any Productive Assets constituting cash or Cash Equivalents received by such Obligor in connection with such Asset Sale shall constitute Net Cash Proceeds subject to the provisions set forth above.

  
 Upon the consummation of an Asset Sale, the Company or the
affected Obligor will be required to apply all Net Cash Proceeds that are received from such Asset Sale within 360 days of the receipt thereof either (a) to reinvest (or enter into a binding commitment to invest, if such investment is effected
within 360 days after the date of such commitment) in Productive Assets or in Asset Acquisitions not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture, or (b) to permanently prepay or repay Indebtedness of any Obligor other than Indebtedness that is
subordinate in right of payment to the Notes. Pending the final application of any such Net Cash Proceeds, the Obligors may temporarily reduce revolving Indebtedness or otherwise invest such Net Cash Proceeds in any manner not prohibited by this
Indenture. 
  
 On the 361st day after an Asset Sale or such
earlier date, if any, as the Board of the Company or the affected Obligor determines not to apply the Net Cash Proceeds relating to such Asset Sale as set forth in clauses (a) or (b) of the preceding paragraph (each a “Net Proceeds Offer
Trigger Date”), such aggregate amount of Net Cash Proceeds which have not been applied on or before such Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date as permitted in clauses (a) or (b) of the preceding paragraph (each a “Net Proceeds Offer
Amount”), will be applied by the Company to make an offer to purchase (the “Net Proceeds Offer”), in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3.9 hereof, on a date (the “Net Proceeds Offer Payment Date”) not less
than 30 nor more than 60 days following the applicable Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date, on a pro rata basis (A) Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes, in each case, plus accrued and unpaid
interest thereon on the Net Proceeds Offer Payment Date and (B) the outstanding 91⁄4% Notes or other Indebtedness Incurred by the Company which is pari passu with the Notes, in each case to the extent required by the terms thereof;
provided that if at any time within 360 days after an Asset Sale any non-cash consideration received by the Company or the affected Obligor in connection with such Asset Sale is converted into or sold or otherwise disposed of for cash, then such
conversion or disposition will be deemed to constitute an Asset Sale hereunder and the Net Cash Proceeds thereof will be applied in accordance with this covenant. To the extent that the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other Indebtedness
Incurred by the Company which is pari passu with the Notes that is tendered pursuant to the Net Proceeds Offer is less than the Net Proceeds Offer Amount, the Obligors may use any remaining proceeds of such Asset Sales for general corporate
purposes (but subject to the other terms of this Indenture). Upon completion of a Net Proceeds Offer, the Net Proceeds Offer Amount relating to such Net Proceeds Offer will be deemed to be zero for purposes of any subsequent Asset Sale. In the event
that a Restricted Subsidiary consummates an Asset Sale, only 
  

 -42-

 that portion of the Net Cash Proceeds therefrom (including any Net Cash Proceeds received upon the sale or other
disposition of any non-cash proceeds received in connection with an Asset Sale) that are distributed to or received by any Obligor will be required to be applied by the Obligors in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Net Proceeds Offer Amount is less than
$10 million the application of the Net Cash Proceeds constituting such Net Proceeds Offer Amount to a Net Proceeds Offer may be deferred until such time as such Net Proceeds Offer Amount plus the aggregate amount of all Net Proceeds Offer Amounts
arising subsequent to the Issue Date of the Notes from all Asset Sales by the Obligors in respect of which a Net Proceeds Offer has not been made aggregate at least $10 million at which time the affected Obligor will apply all Net Cash Proceeds
constituting all Net Proceeds Offer Amounts that have been so deferred to make a Net Proceeds Offer (each date on which the aggregate of all such deferred Net Proceeds Offer Amounts is equal to $10 million or more will be deemed to be a Net Proceeds
Offer Trigger Date). In connection with any Asset Sale with respect to assets having a book value in excess of $10 million or as to which it is expected that the aggregate consideration therefor to be received by the affected Obligor will exceed $10
million in value, such Asset Sale will be approved, prior to the consummation thereof, by the Board of the applicable Obligor. 
  
 
Section 4.10. Transactions with Affiliates. 
  
 No Obligor will make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction,
contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate (each of the foregoing, an “Affiliate Transaction”), unless (a) such Affiliate Transaction is, considered in light of any series of
related transactions of which it comprises a part, on terms that are fair and reasonable and no less favorable to such Obligor than those that might reasonably have been obtained at such time in a comparable transaction or series of related
transactions on an arms-length basis from a Person that is not such an Affiliate, (b) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction involving aggregate consideration of $5 million or more to the affected Obligor, a majority of the disinterested members
of the Board of the Company (and of any other affected Obligor, where applicable) shall, prior to the consummation of any portion of such Affiliate Transaction, have reasonably and in good faith determined, as evidenced by a resolution of its Board,
that such Affiliate Transaction meets the requirements of the foregoing clause, and (c) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction involving value of $15 million or more to the affected Obligor, the Board of the applicable Obligor shall have received
prior to the consummation of any portion of such Affiliate Transaction, a written opinion from an independent investment banking, accounting or appraisal firm of recognized national standing that such Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are fair
to such Obligor from a financial point of view. 
  
 The foregoing
restrictions will not apply to (a) reasonable fees and compensation (including any such compensation in the form of Equity Interests not derived from Disqualified Capital Stock, together with loans and advances, the proceeds of which are used to
acquire such Equity Interests) paid to, and indemnity provided on behalf of, officers, directors, employees or consultants of the Obligors as determined in good faith by the Board or senior management of the Company, (b) any transaction solely
between or among Obligors and Restricted Subsidiaries to the extent any such transaction is otherwise in compliance with, or not prohibited by, this Indenture, (c) any Restricted Payment permitted by the terms of Section 4.7 hereof or any Permitted
Investment, (d) provision of management and related services and goods related thereto (including any agreements therefor) to an Unrestricted Subsidiary in connection with the development, construction and operation of gaming facilities, provided
the Obligor is reimbursed for all costs and expenses it incurs in providing such services, or (e) transactions pursuant to agreements existing on the Issue Date which are set forth on a Schedule II to this Indenture.

Section 4.11. Continued Existence. 
  
 Except as otherwise provided in Article 5 hereof, each of the Obligors shall do or shall cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect (i) its corporate existence, and the corporate, partnership,
limited liability company or other existence of each of its Subsidiaries, in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of each such Obligor and each such Subsidiary and (ii) the material
rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of each Obligor and each Subsidiary; provided, however, that no Obligor shall be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the corporate, partnership or other existence of
any of its Subsidiaries, if its Board shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and that the loss thereof is not adverse in any material
respect to the Holders. 
  
 
Section 4.12. Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control. 
  
 Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each holder of Notes will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof) of such holder’s Notes
pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”) at an offer price in cash (the “Change of Control Payment”) equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest to the
date of repurchase. Within 30 days following any of a Change of Control, the Company shall mail a notice to the Trustee and each Holder stating that the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.12 and that all Notes tendered
will be accepted for payment; the purchase price and the purchase date, which shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (the “Change of Control Payment Date”); that any Note not tendered
will continue to accrue interest; that, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, all Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer shall cease to accrue interest after the Change of Control
Payment Date; that Holders electing to have any Notes purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender the Notes, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the Notes
completed, or transfer by book entry transfer, to the Company, the depository (if appointed by the Company) or to the Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Change
of Control Payment Date; that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their elections if either the Company, the depository or the Paying Agent receives, not later than the close of business on the second Business Day preceding the Change of Control
Payment Date, a facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of such Holder, the principal amount of Notes delivered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its election to have the Notes purchased; that Holders
whose Notes are being purchased only in part will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, which unpurchased portion must be equal to $1,000 in principal amount or an integral multiple
thereof; and a brief summary of the circumstances and relevant facts regarding such Change of Control. The Company will comply with all applicable laws, including, without limitation, Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and the rules thereunder and
all applicable federal and state securities laws, and will include all instructions and materials necessary to enable Holders to tender their Notes. 
  
 On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful (a) accept for payment all Notes or portions thereof properly tendered
pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, (b) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions thereof so tendered, and (c) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes so
accepted, together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions thereof being purchased by the Company.

 The Paying Agent will promptly mail to each Holder of Notes so tendered the Change of Control Payment for
such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered by such Holder, if any;
provided that each such new Note will be in a principal amount of $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof. The Company will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control
Payment Date. 
  
 Prior to complying with the provisions of this
Section 4.12, but in any event within 90 days following a Change of Control, the Company will either (a) repay all Obligations outstanding with respect to Senior Debt, (b) obtain the requisite consents, if any, from the holders of Senior Debt to
permit the Company to repurchase Notes under this Section 4.12; or (c) deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that no action of the kind described in clause (a) or (b) is necessary. 
  
 
Section 4.13. Limitation on Liens. 
  
 No Obligor will, directly or indirectly, create, Incur or assume any Lien, except a Permitted Lien, securing Indebtedness that is pari passu with or subordinate in right of payment to the Notes or the Guarantees, on or with respect to any
of its property or assets including any shares of stock or Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary, whether owned on the Issue Date or thereafter acquired, or any income, profits or proceeds therefrom, unless (a) in the case of any Lien securing
Indebtedness that is pari passu in right of payment with the Notes or the Guarantees, the Notes or the Guarantees are secured by a Lien on such property, assets or proceeds that is senior in priority to or pari passu with such Lien, and (b) in the
case of any Lien securing Indebtedness that is subordinate in right of payment to the Notes or the Guarantees, the Notes or the Guarantees are secured by a Lien on such property, assets or proceeds that is senior in priority to such Lien.

  
 
Section 4.14. Limitation on Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries.

ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to (a) pay dividends or make any other distributions on its Capital Stock, (b) make loans or advances to or pay any Indebtedness or other obligations owed to any Obligor or to any Restricted Subsidiary, or (c)
transfer any of its property or assets to any Obligor or to any Restricted Subsidiary (each such encumbrance or restriction in clause (a), (b) or (c), a “Payment Restriction”). However, the preceding restrictions will not apply to
encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of (i) applicable law or required by any Gaming Authority; (ii) this Indenture; (iii) customary non-assignment provisions of any purchase money financing contract or lease of any Restricted
Subsidiary entered into in the ordinary course of business of such Restricted Subsidiary; (iv) any instrument governing Acquired Debt Incurred in connection with an acquisition by any Obligor or Restricted Subsidiary in accordance with this
Indenture as the same is in effect on the date of such Incurrence; provided that such encumbrance or restriction is not, and will not be, applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person and its Subsidiaries
or the property or assets, including directly-related assets, such as accessions and proceeds so acquired or leased; (v) any restriction or encumbrance contained in contracts for the sale of assets to be consummated in accordance with this Indenture
solely in respect of the assets to be sold pursuant to such contract; (vi) any restrictions of the nature described in clause (c) above with respect to the transfer of assets secured by a Lien that is permitted by this Indenture to be Incurred;
(vii) any encumbrance or restriction contained in Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; provided that the provisions relating to such encumbrance or restriction contained in any such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness are no less favorable to the
holders of the Notes in any material respect in the good faith judgment of the Board of the Company than the provisions relating to such encumbrance or restriction contained in the

 Indebtedness being refinanced; (viii) agreements governing Indebtedness of the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries
existing on the Issue Date, including the Bank Credit Agreement and any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of those agreements; provided that the amendments,

on the date of the Indenture, taken as a whole; or (ix) any agreement for the sale or other disposition of a Restricted Subsidiary that restricts distributions by that Restricted Subsidiary pending the sale or other disposition. 
  
 
Section 4.15. No Subordinated Debt Senior To The Notes or Guarantees.

Obligor to be performed or observed;

such transaction involves (i) the incurrence by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, directly or indirectly, of additional Indebtedness (and treating any Indebtedness not previously an obligation of the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries incurred in connection with or as a result of such transaction as having been incurred at the time of such transaction) and/or (ii) the assumption contemplated by clause (a)(ii)(B) above (including giving effect to any Indebtedness and

 (c) immediately before and immediately after giving effect to such transaction and the assumption contemplated by clause (a)

principal amount, together with any accrued and unpaid interest and premium on all the Notes and Guarantees then outstanding to be due and payable, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee, if given by Holders) specifying the Event
of Default and that it is a “notice of acceleration” and on the fifth Business Day after delivery of such notice the principal amount, in either case, together with any accrued and unpaid interest and premium on all the Notes or the
Guarantees then outstanding will become immediately due and payable, notwithstanding anything contained in this Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees to the contrary. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default specified in clauses (f) or (g) of
Section 6.1 hereof with respect to the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Obligors that, taken together as a whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, the principal amount, together with any accrued and unpaid
interest and premium will immediately and automatically become due and payable, without the necessity of notice or any other action by any Person. Holders of the Notes may not enforce this Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees except as provided
herein. 
  
 After a declaration of acceleration, but before a
judgment decree of money due in respect to the Notes has been obtained, the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by written notice to the Trustee may rescind an acceleration and its
consequences if all existing Events of Default (other than the nonpayment of principal of and premium, if any, and 
  

 49 







Table of Contents


 interest on the Notes which has become due solely by virtue of such acceleration) have been cured or waived and if the
rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto. 
  
 If an Event of Default occurs on or after October 1, 2008 by reason of any willful action (or inaction) taken (or not taken) by or on behalf of any
Obligor with the intention of avoiding payment of the premium that the Company would have had to pay had the Company then elected to redeem the Notes pursuant to Section 3.7 hereof, then, upon acceleration of the Notes, an equivalent premium shall
also become and be immediately due and payable, to the extent permitted by law, anything in this Indenture or in the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding. If an Event of Default occurs prior to October 1, 2008 by reason of any willful action (or
inaction) taken (or not taken) by or on behalf of any Obligor with the intention of avoiding the prohibition on redemption of the Notes prior to such date, then, upon acceleration of the Notes, an additional premium shall also become and be
immediately due and payable in an amount, for each of the years beginning on October 1 of the years set forth below, as set forth below (expressed as a percentage of the principal to the date of payment that would otherwise be due but for the
provisions of this sentence): 
  

	 YEAR

	  	PERCENTAGE

	 
	 2003
	  	8.750	%
	 2004
	  	7.875	%
	 2005

	  	5.250	%

  
 
Section 6.3. Other Remedies. 
  
 If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this
Indenture. 
  
 The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it
does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of a Note in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy
or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law. 
  
 
Section 6.4. Waiver of Past Defaults. 
  
 Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences
hereunder, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium and interest on, the Notes or Guarantees (including in connection with an offer to purchase) (provided, however, 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 solely from such acceleration). The waiver by the holders of any Indebtedness
described in clause (d) of Section 6.1 of the predicating default under such Indebtedness shall be deemed a waiver of such Default or Event of Default arising under, and a rescission of any acceleration resulting from the application of
clause (d), from the effective date, during the effective period and to the extent of, the waiver by the holders of such other Indebtedness. Upon any waiver granted or deemed granted in accordance with the terms hereof, such Default shall cease
to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured and waived for every purpose of 
  

 50

 this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent
thereon. 
  
 
Section 6.5. Control by Majority. 
  
 Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on it.
However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders of Notes or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability.

  
 
Section 6.6. Limitation on Suits. 
  
 A Holder of a Note may pursue a remedy (including, without limitation, the institution of any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the Notes or this Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee) with respect to
this Indenture or the Notes only if: 
  
 (a) the Holder of a Note
gives to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default; 
  
 (b) the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy; 
  
 (c) such Holder of a Note or Holders of Notes offer and, if requested, provide to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss,
liability or expense; 
  
 (d) the Trustee does not comply with
the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer and, if requested, the provision of indemnity; and 
  
 (e) during such 60-day period the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent
with the request. 
  
 A Holder of a Note may not use this Indenture to prejudice
the rights of another Holder of a Note or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder of a Note. 
  
 
Section 6.7. Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment. 
  
 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal, premium and interest on the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such 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 such Holder. 
  
 
Section 6.8. Collection Suit by Trustee. 
  
 If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(a) or (b) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company for the whole
amount of principal of, premium and interest remaining unpaid on the Notes and interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including
the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

Section 6.9. 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 reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to any Obligor, its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered 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 reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other
amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.7 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 7.7 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.

liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection; 
  
 Second: to Holders of Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal, premium and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any
kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal, premium and interest, respectively; and 
  
 Third: to or at the direction of the Company, 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
of Notes pursuant to this Section 6.10. 
  
 
Section 6.11. Undertaking for Costs.

suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and
good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder of a Note pursuant to Section 6.7 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the then

remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 
  
 
Section 6.15. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. 
  
 No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Note to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of
Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case
may be.

 then, in any such case, (i) the Company, by a resolution of the Board, may remove the Trustee
with respect to the Notes, or (ii) subject to Section 6.11, any Holder who has been a Holder for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the
Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
  
 (e) If
the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, the Company, by a resolution of the Board, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to
the Notes, which shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 7.11. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee shall be appointed by the holders of at least
a majority in principal amount of the Notes delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Notes and,
to that extent, supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor Trustee with respect to the Notes shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter provided, any
Holder who has been a Holder for at least six months may, subject to Section 6.11, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the
Notes.

such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of
the retiring Trustee, but, on request of the Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of
the retiring Trustee, and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and

 money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder, subject nevertheless to its claim, if any, provided for in Section 7.7.

shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in this Section, as the case may be.

corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Notes shall have been authenticated, but not delivered,
by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Notes so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself
authenticated such Notes. In case any Notes shall not have been authenticated by such predecessor Trustee, any such successor Trustee may authenticate and deliver such Notes, in either its own name or that of its predecessor Trustee, with the full
force and effect which this Indenture provides for the certificate of authentication of the Trustee.

the provisions of § 311 of the TIA regarding the collection of such claims against the Company (or any such Guarantor or other Obligor). A Trustee that has resigned or been removed shall be subject to and comply with said § 311 to the
extent required thereby. 
  
 Section 7.14. Reports by Trustee to Holders of the
Notes. 
  
 Within 60 days after each May 15 beginning with the

ARTICLE 8. 
 LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE 
  
 
Section 8.1. Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 
  
 The Company may, at the option of its Board evidenced by resolutions set forth in an Officers’ Certificate, at any time, elect to have either Section
8.2 or 8.3 hereof be applied to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article Eight. 
  
 
Section 8.2. Legal Defeasance and Discharge. 
  
 Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.1 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.2, the Company shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.4 hereof, be deemed to
have been discharged from its 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 Company shall be
deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.5 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture
referred to in (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Notes and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except
for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (a) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive solely from the trust fund described in Section 8.4 hereof, and as more fully set forth in
such Section, payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Notes when such payments are due, (b) the Company’s obligations with respect to such Notes under Article 2 and Section 4.2 hereof, (c) the rights,
powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the Company’s and Obligors’ obligations in connection therewith and (d) this Article Eight. Subject to compliance with this Article Eight, the Company may exercise its
option under this Section 8.2 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.3 hereof. 
  
 
Section 8.3. Covenant Defeasance. 
  
 Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.1 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.3, the Company shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.4 hereof, be released from its obligations under
the covenants contained in Sections 4.7, 4.8, 4.9, 4.10, 4.12, 4.13, 4.14, and 4.15 hereof and (b) and (c) of Section 5.1 hereof with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.4 are satisfied
(hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in
connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant
Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes, the Company may omit to comply with and shall 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 shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under
Section 6.1 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.1 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.3
hereof, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.4 hereof, Sections 6.1(c) through 6.1(e) and 6.1(h) hereof shall not constitute Events of Default.

Section 8.4. Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. 
  
 The following shall be the conditions to the application of either Section 8.2 or 8.3 hereof to the outstanding Notes: 
  
 In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance: 
  
 (a) the Company must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders, cash in United States
dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, premium and interest on the
outstanding Notes on the stated date for payment thereof or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be as well as the fees and expense of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel; 
  
 (b) in the case of an election under Section 8.2 hereof, the Company shall
have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the
date of this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize
income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance
had not occurred; 
  
 (c) in the case of an election under
Section 8.3 hereof, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for
federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

  
 (d) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the incurrence of Indebtedness all or a portion of the proceeds of which will be used to defease the Notes pursuant to this Article Eight concurrently
with such incurrence) or insofar as Sections 6.1(f) or 6.1(g) hereof is concerned, at any time in the period ending on the 91st day after the date of deposit; 
  

(e) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or
instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound; 
  

(f) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel (which may be subject to customary exceptions) to the effect that on the 91st
day following the deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally; 
  
 (g) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’
Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Company with the intent of preferring the Holders over any other creditors of the Company or with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any other creditors of the Company;
and

 (h) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of
Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for or relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with. 
  
 
Section 8.5. Deposited Money and Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. 
  
 Subject to Section 8.6 hereof, all money and non-callable Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee pursuant to
Section 8.4 hereof in respect of the outstanding Notes shall 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 any
Obligor 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, and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds
except to the extent required by law. 
  
 The Company shall pay
and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.4 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. 
  
 Anything in this Article 8 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon the request of the
Company any money or non-callable Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.4 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 8.4(a) 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. 
  
 
Section 8.6. Repayment to Company. 
  
 Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium or
interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on its request or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all
liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any
such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in the New York Times and The Wall Street Journal (national editions), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein which shall 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 Company. 
  
 
Section 8.7. Reinstatement. 
  
 If
the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any United States dollars or non-callable Government Securities in accordance with Section 8.2 or 8.3 hereof, as the case may be, by reason of an order or judgment of any court or governmental authority
enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the obligations of the Obligors under this Indenture, the Guarantees and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.2 or
8.3 hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.2 or 8.3 hereof, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Company makes any payment of principal of,
premium, if any, or interest on any Note following the reinstatement of its

 obligations, the Company shall 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 9.1. Without Consent of Holders of Notes. 
  
 Notwithstanding Section 9.2 of this Indenture, the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture or the Notes without the consent of any Holder of a Note: 
  
 (a) to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency; provided that such
amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder; 
  
 (b) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes or to alter the provisions of Article 2 hereof (including the related definitions) in a manner that does not materially
adversely affect any Holder; 
  
 (c) to provide for the
assumption of the Company’s or a Guarantor’s obligations to the Holders of the Notes by a successor to the Company pursuant to Article 5 or Article 10 hereof; 
  
 (d) to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of the Notes or that does not
adversely affect the legal rights hereunder of any Holder of the Note; 
  
 (e) to comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA; 
  
 (f) to allow any Guarantor to execute a supplemental indenture and/or a Guaranty with respect to the Notes; or 
  
 (g) to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in accordance with the
limitations set forth in this Indenture under the TIA. 
  
 Upon
the request of the Company accompanied by a resolution of its Board authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental Indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 9.6 hereof, the Trustee shall join
with the Company and the Guarantors 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 shall 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 9.2. With Consent of Holders of Notes. 
  
 Except as provided below in this Section 9.2, the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture (including Section 3.9, 4.9 and 4.12 hereof, including the defined terms used therein), the Guarantees
and the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Notes (including, without limitation, Additional Notes, if any) then outstanding voting as a single class (including
consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.4 and 6.7 hereof, any existing Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of Default in the payment of
the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, except a payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with any provision of this Indenture, the Guarantees 
  

 63 







Table of Contents


 or the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding
Notes voting as a single class (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes). Without the consent of at least 66 2/3% in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, such Notes), no waiver
or amendment to this Indenture may (a) make any change to Article 10 hereof or (b) release any Guarantor from its obligations under any Guaranty, in either case if such amendment or waiver would adversely affect the rights of any
Holder. Section 2.8 hereof shall determine which Notes are considered to be “outstanding” for purposes of this Section 9.2. 
  
 Upon the request of the Company 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 9.6 hereof, the Trustee shall join
with the Company 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 shall not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental Indenture. 
  
 It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders of Notes under this Section 9.2 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or
waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. 
  
 After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section becomes effective, the Company shall mail to the Holders of Notes affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any
failure of the Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental Indenture or waiver. Subject to Sections 6.4 and 6.7 hereof, and except as
otherwise provided in this Section 9.2 the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding voting as a single class may waive compliance in a particular instance by any Obligor with any provision of this
Indenture, any Guaranty or the Notes. However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment or waiver under this Section 9.2 may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder): 
  
 (a) reduce the principal amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an
amendment, supplement or waiver; 
  
 (b) reduce the principal of
or change the fixed maturity of any Note or alter or waive any of the provisions with respect to the redemption of the Notes (except as provided above with respect to Sections 3.9, 4.9 and 4.12 hereof); 
  
 (c) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest, including
default interest, on any Note; 
  
 (d) waive a Default or Event of
Default in the payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes (except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes and a waiver of
the payment default that resulted from such acceleration); 
  
 (e)
make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the Notes; 
  
 (f) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of Holders of Notes to receive payments of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes; 
  

 64 







Table of Contents


 (g) waive a redemption payment with respect to any Note (other than payment required by Sections 3.9, 4.9
and 4.12 hereof); or 
  
 (h) make any change in Section 6.4 or
6.7 hereof or in the foregoing amendment and waiver provisions. 
  
 
Section 9.3. Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. 
  
 Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes shall be set forth in a amended or supplemental indenture that complies with the TIA as then in effect. 
  
 
Section 9.4. Revocation and Effect of Consents. 
  
 Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that
evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives
written notice of revocation before the date upon which the requisite consents for the applicable amendment, supplement or waiver have been obtained. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter
binds every Holder. 
  
 
Section 9.5. 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 Company in exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an
Authentication Order, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver. 
  
 Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver. 
  
 
Section 9.6. Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc. 
  
 The Trustee shall sign any amended or supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article Nine if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the
Trustee. The Obligors may not sign an amendment or supplemental indenture until their Boards approve it. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.1) shall be fully
protected in relying upon an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. 
  
 
Section 9.7. Amendment Related to Subordination. 
  
 Any amendment related to Article 10 hereof shall be made in accordance with the applicable provisions of Article 9 and Section 10.14.

 SUBORDINATION 
  
 
Section 10.1. Agreement to Subordinate. 
  
 Each Obligor agrees, and each Holder by accepting a Note agrees, that the Indebtedness evidenced by the Note and the Guarantees is subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in this

 Upon any distribution to creditors of any Obligor in a liquidation or dissolution of such Obligor or in a proceeding under Bankruptcy Law relating to such Obligor or its property, in an assignment for the benefit of
creditors or any marshaling of such Obligor’s assets and liabilities: 
  
 (a) holders of Senior Debt shall be entitled to receive payment in full of all Obligations in respect of such Senior Debt (including Accrued Bankruptcy Interest) and to have all outstanding Letter of Credit
Obligations and applicable Hedging Obligations fully cash collateralized before the Trustee or the Holders shall be entitled to receive any payment or distribution on Obligations with respect to the Notes and the Guarantees (except that the Trustee
or the Holders may receive payments and other distributions made from any defeasance or redemption trust created pursuant to Article 8 or the last paragraph of Section 3.5 hereof and the issuance of Permitted Junior Securities); and 
  
 (b) until all Obligations with respect to Senior Debt (as provided in clause

Holder any Notes or Guarantees for cash or property (other than payments and other distributions made from any defeasance or redemption trust created pursuant Article 8 or the last paragraph of Section 3.5 hereof and the issuance of Permitted Junior
Securities) until all principal and other Obligations arising under or in connection with the Senior Debt have been paid in full or fully cash-collateralized, if not yet due if: 
  
 (a) a default in the payment of any Obligations with respect to Designated Senior Debt occurs and is continuing (including
any default in payment upon the maturity of any Designated Senior Debt by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise), or any judicial proceeding is pending to determine whether any such default has occurred; or 
  
 (b) a default or event of default (as such terms may be defined in any
agreement, indenture or other document governing such Designated Senior Debt), other than a payment default described in

 subsection (a) above, on Designated Senior Debt, including any default or event of default that would result upon any
payment or distribution with respect to the Notes or the Guarantees, that would cause or permit the acceleration of the maturity of the Designated Senior Debt, occurs and is continuing with respect to Designated Senior Debt that permits holders of
the Designated Senior Debt as to which such default relates to accelerate its maturity and the Trustee receives a notice of such default (a “Payment Blockage Notice”) from the affected Obligors or the holders of any Designated Senior Debt.
If the Trustee receives any such Payment Blockage Notice, no subsequent Payment Blockage Notice shall be effective for purposes of this Section unless and until at least 360 days shall have elapsed since the first day of effectiveness of the
immediately prior Payment Blockage Notice. No nonpayment default that existed or was continuing on the date of delivery of any Payment Blockage Notice to the Trustee shall be, or be made, the basis for a subsequent Payment Blockage Notice unless
such default shall have been waived for a period of not less than 180 days. 
  
 If the Company is prohibited from making payments on or distributions in respect of the Notes or from acquiring any Notes under subsection (a) or (b) above, the Company may and shall resume payments on and
distributions in respect of the Notes and may acquire them upon: 
  
 (i) in the case of any prohibition referred to in Section 10.4(a) hereof, the date upon which the default, event of default or other event giving rise to such prohibition is cured or waived or shall have ceased to
exist, unless another default, event of default or other event that would prohibit such payment, distribution or acquisition under Section 10.4(a) has occurred and is continuing, or all Obligations in respect of such Designated Senior Debt shall
have been discharged or paid in full, or 
  
 (ii)
in the case of any prohibition referred to in Section 10.4(b) hereof, the earlier of the date on which the default, event of default or other event giving rise to such prohibition is cured or waived or 179 days pass after the relevant Payment
Blockage Notice is received by the Trustee thereunder, unless the maturity of any Designated Senior Debt has been accelerated, in each such case, if this Article otherwise permits the payment, distribution or acquisition. 
  
 The provisions of this Article shall not be construed to prohibit the Company
from repurchasing, redeeming, repaying or prepaying any or all of the Notes to the extent required to do so by any Gaming Authority having authority over any Obligor. 
  
 
Section 10.5. Acceleration of Notes. 
  
 If payment of the Notes is accelerated because of an Event of Default, the Company shall promptly notify holders of Senior Debt of the acceleration. 
  
 
Section 10.6. When Distribution Must Be Paid Over. 
  
 If, notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 10.3 and 10.4, any direct or indirect payment or distribution on account of principal of or interest on or other Obligations with respect to the Notes or Guarantees or
acquisition, repurchase, redemption, retirement or defeasance of any of the Notes or Guarantees shall be made by or on behalf of any Obligor (including any payments or distribution by any liquidating trustee or agent or other Person in a proceeding
referred to in Section 10.3) and received by the Trustee or any Holder at a time when such payment or distribution was prohibited by the provisions of Section 10.3 or 10.4 or such payment or distribution was required to be made to holders of Senior
Debt or their Representatives, then, unless and until such payment or distribution is no longer prohibited by Section 10.3 or 10.4, such payment or distribution shall be received, segregated from other funds or assets and held in trust by the
Trustee or such Holder, as the case may be, for the benefit of, and shall be immediately paid or delivered over to, those Persons known to the Trustee or, as the case may be, such

Representatives, ratably in accordance with the respective amounts of the principal of such Senior Debt, interest (including, without limitation, Accrued Bankruptcy Interest) thereon and all other Obligations with respect thereto held or represented
by each, until the principal of all Senior Debt, interest (including Accrued Bankruptcy Interest) thereon and all other Obligations with respect thereto have been paid in full and all outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations and applicable Hedging
Obligations have been fully cash collateralized. Any distribution to the holders of Senior Debt or their Representatives of assets other than cash may be held by such holders or such Representatives as additional collateral without any duty to the
Holder to liquidate or otherwise realize on such assets or to apply such assets to any Senior Debt or other Obligations relating thereto. 
  
 With respect to the holders of Senior Debt, the Trustee undertakes to perform only such obligations on the part of the Trustee as are specifically set
forth in this Article 10, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of Senior Debt shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior
Debt, and shall not be liable to any such holders if the Trustee shall in good faith mistakenly pay over or distribute to or on behalf of Holders or any Obligor or any other Person money or assets to which any holders of Senior Debt shall be
entitled by virtue of this Article 10, except if such payment is made as a result of the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Trustee. Nothing in this Section 10.6 shall affect the obligation of any Person other than the Trustee to hold
such payment or distribution for the benefit of, and to pay or deliver such payment or distribution over to, the holders of Senior Debt or their Representatives. 
  
 
Section 10.7. Notice by Company. 
  
 The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee and the Paying Agent of any facts known to the Company that would cause a payment of any Obligations with respect to the Notes or Guarantees to violate this Article, but failure to give such
notice shall not affect the subordination of the Notes and the Guarantees to the Senior Debt as provided in this Article. 
  
 
Section 10.8. Subrogation. 
  
 After all Senior Debt is paid in full and until the Notes are paid in full, Holders shall be subrogated (equally and ratably with all other Indebtedness pari passu with the Notes and Guarantees) to the rights of holders of Senior Debt to
receive distributions applicable to Senior Debt to the extent that distributions otherwise payable to the Holders have been applied to the payment of Senior Debt. A distribution made under this Article to holders of Senior Debt that otherwise would
have been made to Holders is not, as between the Obligors and Holders, a payment by any Obligor on the Notes or the Guarantees. 
  
 
Section 10.9. Relative Rights. 
  
 This Article 10 defines the relative rights of Holders and holders of Senior Debt. Nothing in this Article 10 shall: 
  
 (a) impair, as between the Obligors and Holders, the obligation of the Obligors, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay principal of and interest on
the Notes and the Guarantees in accordance with their terms; 
  
 (b) affect the relative rights of Holders and creditors of the Obligors other than their rights in relation to holders of Senior Debt; or 
  

 -69- 







Table of Contents


 (c) prevent the Trustee or any Holder from exercising its available remedies upon a Default or Event of
Default, subject to the rights of holders and owners of Senior Debt to receive distributions and payments otherwise payable to Holders. 
  
 If any Obligor fails because of this Article to pay principal of or interest on a Note or Guaranty on the due date, the failure is still a Default or
Event of Default. 
  
 
Section 10.10. Subordination May Not Be Impaired by Obligors. 
  
 No right of any present or future holder of Senior Debt to enforce the subordination of the Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes and the Guarantees shall
be impaired by any act or failure to act by any Obligor or any Holder of Notes and Guarantees or any holder of Senior Debt or by the failure of any Obligor or any Holder of Notes and Guarantees or any holder of Senior Debt to comply with this
Indenture regardless of any knowledge thereof that any such Holder of Notes or holder of Senior Debt, as the case may be, may have or be otherwise charged with. The holders of Senior Debt may extend, renew, restate, supplement, modify or amend the
terms of the Senior Debt or any Obligations with respect thereto or any security therefor and release, sell or exchange such security and otherwise deal freely with any Obligor and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates all without affecting the
liabilities and obligations of the parties to this Indenture or the Holders. No provision in any supplemental indenture that adversely affects the subordination of the Notes and Guarantees or other provisions of this Article 10 shall be effective
against the holders of the Designated Senior Debt unless the requisite percentage of such holders (or if permitted under the applicable Bank Credit Agreement, the Representative) shall have consented thereto. 
  
 Each Holder of the Notes and Guarantees by its acceptance thereof: (a)
acknowledges and agrees that the holders of any Senior Debt or their Representative, in its or their discretion, and without affecting any rights of any holder of Senior Debt under this Article 10, may foreclose any mortgage or deed of trust
covering interest in real property securing such Senior Debt or any guarantee thereof by judicial or nonjudicial sale, even though such action may release an Obligor or any guarantor of such Senior Debt from further liability under such Senior Debt
or any guarantee thereof or may otherwise limit the remedies available to the holders thereof; and (b) hereby waives any defense that such Holder may otherwise have to the enforcement of this Article 10 by any holder of any Senior Debt or any
Representative of such holder against such Holder after or as a result of any action, including any such defense based on any loss or impairment of rights of subrogation. 
  
 If at any time any payment of Obligations with respect to any Senior Debt is rescinded or must otherwise be returned upon
the insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or liquidation of any Obligor or otherwise, the provisions of this Article 10 shall continue to be effective or reinstated, as the case may be, to the same extent as though such payments had not been made.

  
 
Section 10.11. Distribution or Notice to Representative. 
  
 Whenever a distribution is to be made or a notice given to holders of Senior Debt, the distribution may be made and the notice given to their Representative. 
  
 Upon any payment or distribution of assets of any Obligor referred to in this
Article 10, the Trustee and the Holders shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction or upon any certificate of such Representative or of the liquidating trustee or agent or other Person making any
distribution to the Trustee or to the Holders for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Debt and other Indebtedness of such Obligor, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the
amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article 10. 
  

 -70- 







Table of Contents


 Subject to the provisions of Section 7.1, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the delivery to it of
a written notice by a Person representing himself to be a holder of Senior Debt (or a trustee or agent on behalf of such holder) to establish that such notice has been given by a holder of Senior Debt (or a trustee or agent on behalf of any such
holder). In the event that the Trustee determines in good faith that further evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person as a holder of Senior Debt to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article 10, the
Trustee may request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of Senior Debt held by such Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and any
other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Article 10, and if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment which it may be required to make for the benefit of such Person pursuant to the terms of this
Indenture pending judicial determination as to the rights of such Person to receive such payment. 
  
 
Section 10.12. Rights of Trustee and Paying Agent. 
  
 Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article 10 or any other provision of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts that would prohibit the making of any payment
or distribution by the Trustee, and the Trustee and the Paying Agent may continue to make payments on the Notes and Guarantees, unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received at its Corporate Trust Office at least two Business Days
prior to the date of such payment written notice of facts that would cause the payment of any Obligations with respect to the Notes and Guarantees to violate this Article. Only the Company or a Representative may give the notice. Nothing in this
Article 10 shall impair the claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 7.7 hereof. 
  
 The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may hold Senior Debt with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Agent may do the
same with like rights. 
  
 
Section 10.13. Authorization to Effect Subordination. 
  
 Each Holder of a Note by the Holder’s acceptance thereof authorizes and directs the Trustee on the Holder’s behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination as
provided in this Article 10, and appoints the Trustee to act as the Holder’s attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. 
  
 Each Obligor, the Trustee and each Holder by their acceptance of the Notes acknowledge that damages would be inadequate to compensate the holders of
Senior Debt for any breach or default by any Obligor, the Trustee or any such Holder of its obligations under this Article 10, and, therefore, agree that the holders of Senior Debt and their Representatives shall be entitled to equitable relief,
including injunctive relief and specific performance, in the enforcement thereof. 
  
 
Section 10.14. Amendments. 
  
 (a) The provisions of this Article 10 shall not be amended or modified without the written consent of the holders of all Senior Debt unless such amendment or modification does not adversely affect the holders of such Senior Debt.

  
 (b) Without the consents of the Holders of at least 66 2/3% in
principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, no Obligor will amend, modify or alter the terms of any indebtedness subordinated to the Notes or the Guarantees in any way that will (i) increase the rate of or change the time for payment of interest
on any indebtedness subordinated to the Notes, (ii) increase the principal of, advance the final maturity date of or shorten the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any such subordinated indebtedness, (iii) alter the redemption provisions or the
price or terms at which the Company is required to offer to 
  

 -71-

 purchase such subordinated indebtedness or (iv) amend the subordination provisions of any documents, instruments or
agreements governing any such subordinated indebtedness, except to the extent that any of the foregoing would be required to permit any Obligor to make a Restricted Payment permitted by Section 4.7 hereof. 
  
 
Section 10.15. Notes are Pari Passu with the 91⁄4% Notes. 
  
 The Obligations in respect of the Notes and the Guarantees are on a parity with the Obligations in respect of the 91⁄4% Notes and the guarantees thereof in right of payment. 
  
 
ARTICLE 11. 
 SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE 
  
 
Section 11.1. Satisfaction and Discharge. 
  
 This Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to all Notes issued hereunder, when: 
  

	(a)	 	either: 

  
 (i) all Notes that have been authenticated (except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose
payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the Company), have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 
  
 (ii) all Notes that have not been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the mailing of a
notice of redemption or otherwise or will become due and payable within one year and the Company or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders,
cash in U.S. dollars, noncallable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes not delivered
to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption; 
  
 (b) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the
borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit) and the deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other instrument to which the Company or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Company or any
Guarantor is bound; 
  
 (c) the Company or any Guarantor has paid
or caused to be paid all sums payable by it under this Indenture; and 
  
 (d) the Company has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under this Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at maturity or the redemption date, as the case may be. 
  
 In addition, the Company must deliver an Officers’ Certificate and an
Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied. 
  
 Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money has been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (ii) of clause (a) of
this Section, the provisions of Sections 11.2 
  

 -72-

 and 8.6 will survive. In addition, nothing in this Section 11.1 will be deemed to discharge those provisions of Section
7.7 hereof, that, by their terms, survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
  
 
Section 11.2. Application of Trust Money. 
  
 Subject to the provisions of Section 8.6 hereof, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 11.1 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 Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest 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 Government Securities in accordance with Section 11.1 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 Company’s and any Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes
shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 11.1 hereof; provided that if the Company has made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Notes because of the reinstatement of its
obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or Government Securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

 GUARANTY 
  
 
Section 13.1. The Guaranty. 
  
 Each Guarantor hereby absolutely and unconditionally, jointly and severally Guarantees and promises to pay to each Holder and the Trustee (each a “Beneficiary”), as their respective interests appear, on demand, in lawful money of
the United States of America, any and all Guaranteed Obligations of the Company from time to time owed to the Beneficiaries. The term “Guaranteed Obligations” means 
  

 -76- 







Table of Contents


 any and all present and future obligations and liabilities of the Company of every type and description to the
Beneficiaries under this Indenture and the Notes, whether for principal, premium (if any), interest, expenses, indemnities or other amounts, in each case whether due or not due, absolute or contingent, voluntary or involuntary, liquidated or
unliquidated, determined or undetermined, now or hereafter existing, renewed or restructured, whether or not from time to time decreased or extinguished and later increased, created or incurred, whether or not arising after the commencement of a
proceeding under Bankruptcy Law (including post-petition interest) and whether or not allowed or allowable as a claim in any such proceeding, and whether or not recovery of any such obligation or liability may be barred by a statute of limitations
or such obligation or liability may otherwise be unenforceable. All Guaranteed Obligations shall be conclusively presumed to have been created in reliance on this Guaranty. This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty of the Guaranteed Obligations and,
except as otherwise provided in Section 9.2 or 13.11, may not be revoked and shall not otherwise terminate unless and until any and all Guaranteed Obligations have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full. Failing payment when due of any
Guaranteed Obligation or any performance of any Guaranteed Obligation for whatever reason, the Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay or perform the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and
not a guarantee of collection. 
  
 The Guarantors hereby
agree that their obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes
with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor.
Each Guarantor hereby covenants that this Guaranty shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture. 
  
 If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, the Guarantors or any
custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or the Guarantors, any amount paid by either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Guaranty, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in
full force and effect. 
  
 Each Guarantor further agrees
that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 hereof for the purposes of this Guaranty,
notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6 hereof, such
obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Guaranty. 
  
 
Section 13.2. Nature of Guaranty. 
  
 The liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty is independent of and not in consideration of or contingent upon the liability of the Company or any other Obligor and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against
any Guarantor, whether or not any action is brought or prosecuted against the Company or any other Obligor or whether the Company or any other Obligor is joined in any such action or actions. This Guaranty given by each Guarantor shall be construed
as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guaranty of payment (and not merely of collection) without regard to: 
  
 (a) the legality, validity or enforceability of the Notes, this Indenture or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or the Guaranty given by any other
Guarantor (an “Other Guaranty”); 
  

 -77- 







Table of Contents


 (b) any defense (other than payment), set-off or counterclaim that may at any time be available to the
Company or any other Obligor against, and any right of set-off at any time held by, any Beneficiary; or 
  
 (c) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of any Guarantor or any other Obligor), whether or not similar to any of the
foregoing, that constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Company or any other Obligor, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. 
  
 Any payment by any Obligor or other circumstance that operates to toll any statute of limitations applicable to such Obligor
shall also operate to toll the statute of limitations applicable to each Guarantor. 
  
 
Section 13.3. Authorization. 
  
 Each Guarantor authorizes each Beneficiary, without notice to or further assent by such Guarantor, and without affecting any Guarantor’s liability hereunder (regardless of whether any subrogation or similar right that such Guarantor
may have or any other right or remedy of such Guarantor is extinguished or impaired or the risk to such Guarantor is materially increased), from time to time to do any or all of the following: 
  
 (a) permit the Company to increase or create Guaranteed Obligations, or
terminate, release, compromise, subordinate, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the amount or time, manner or place of payment of, or rescind any demand for payment or acceleration of, the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof, consent or
enter into supplemental indentures or otherwise amend the terms and conditions of this Indenture or the Notes or any provision thereof; 
  
 (b) take and hold collateral security from the Company or any other Person, perfect or refrain from perfecting a Lien on any such collateral security, and
exchange, enforce, subordinate, release (whether intentionally or unintentionally), or take or fail to take any other action in respect of, any such collateral security or Lien or any part thereof; 
  
 (c) exercise in such manner and order as it elects in its sole discretion,
fail to exercise, waive, suspend, terminate or suffer expiration of, any of the remedies or rights of such Beneficiary against the Company or any other Obligor in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations or any collateral security; 
  
 (d) release, add or settle with any Obligor in respect of the Guaranty or the
Guaranteed Obligations; 
  
 (e) accept partial payments on the
Guaranteed Obligations and apply any and all payments or recoveries from such Obligor or collateral security to such of the Guaranteed Obligations as any Beneficiary may elect in its sole discretion, whether or not such Guaranteed Obligations are
secured or entitled to the benefits of Support Obligations; 
  
 (f) refund at any time, at such Beneficiary’s sole discretion, any payments or recoveries received by such Beneficiary in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations or collateral security; and 
  
 (g) otherwise deal with the Company, any other Obligor and any collateral
security as such Beneficiary may elect in its sole discretion. 
  
 
Section 13.4. Certain Waivers. 
  
 Each Guarantor waives:

Table of Contents


 (a) the right to require the Beneficiaries to proceed against the Company or any other Obligor, to
proceed against or exhaust any collateral security or to pursue any other remedy in any Beneficiary’s power whatsoever and the right to have the property of the Company or any other Obligor first applied to the discharge of the Guaranteed
Obligations;

Guaranteed Obligations or any Guarantor’s liability hereunder; 
  
 (d) any requirement of marshaling or any other principle of election of remedies;

(iii) notice that any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations is due, (iv) notice of any action against the Company or any other Obligor, or any enforcement of other action with respect to any collateral security, or the assertion of any right of any

Section 13.6. Bankruptcy No Discharge. 
  
 (a) Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Guaranty of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for
purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Guaranty. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and
the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are
relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 13,
result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guaranty not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. 
  
 (b) Without limiting Section 13.2, the Guaranty shall not be discharged or otherwise affected by any bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding
commenced by or against the Company or any other Obligor, including (i) any discharge of, or bar or stay against collecting, all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations in or as a result of any such proceeding, whether or not assented to by any
Beneficiary, (ii) any disallowance of all or any portion of any Beneficiary’s claim for repayment of the Guaranteed Obligations, (iii) any use of cash or other collateral in any such proceeding, (iv) any agreement or stipulation as to adequate
protection in any such proceeding, (v) any failure by any Beneficiary to file or enforce a claim against the Company or any other Obligor or its estate in any bankruptcy or reorganization case, (vi) any amendment, modification, stay or cure of any
Beneficiary’s rights that may occur in any such proceeding, (vii) any election by any Beneficiary under Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, or (viii) any borrowing or grant of a Lien under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code. Each
Guarantor understands and acknowledges that by virtue of this Guaranty, it has specifically assumed any and all risks of any such proceeding with respect to the Company and each other Obligor. 
  
 (c) Notwithstanding anything in this Article Twelve to the contrary, any
Event of Default under Section 6.1(f) or (g) of this Indenture shall render all Guaranteed Obligations automatically due and payable for purposes of the Guaranty, without demand on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. 
  
 (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, the Guaranty
shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment, or any part thereof, of any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential or otherwise
required to be restored or returned by any Beneficiary in connection with any bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving the Company, any other Obligor or otherwise, if the proceeds of any collateral security are required to be
returned by such Beneficiary under any such circumstances, or if any Beneficiary elects to return any such payment or proceeds or any part thereof in its sole discretion, all as though such payment had not been made or such proceeds not been
received. 
  
 
Section 13.7. Execution and Delivery of Guaranty. 
  
 To evidence its Guaranty set forth in Section 13.1, each Guarantor hereby agrees that a notation of such Guaranty substantially in the form included in Exhibit B shall be endorsed by an Officer of such Guarantor on
each Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and that this Indenture shall be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by its Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer or one of its Vice Presidents or equivalent of any of these positions.

  
 Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guaranty set forth in
Section 13.1 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Guaranty.

Table of Contents


 If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture or on the Guaranty no longer holds that office at the
time the Trustee authenticates the Note on which a Guaranty is endorsed, the Guaranty shall be valid nevertheless. 
  
 The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Guaranty set forth in this
Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors. 
  
 In the event that the
Company creates or acquires any new Subsidiaries subsequent to the date of this Indenture, if required by Section 4.16 hereof, the Company shall cause such Subsidiaries to execute supplemental indentures to this Indenture and Guaranty in accordance
with Section 4.16 hereof and this Article 13, to the extent applicable. 
  
 
Section 13.8. Severability of Void Guaranteed Obligations Under Guaranty. 
  
 The obligations of any Guarantor hereunder shall be limited to the maximum amount that would not render its obligations hereunder subject to avoidance
under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable provisions of other Bankruptcy Law or comparable state law. 
  
 
Section 13.9. Right of Contribution. 
  
 In order to provide for just and equitable contribution among the Guarantors in connection with the Guaranty, the Guarantors have agreed among themselves that if any Guarantor satisfies some or all of the Guaranteed Obligations (a
“Funding Guarantor”), the Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to contribution from the other Guarantors that have positive Maximum Net Worth (as defined below) for all payments made by the Funding Guarantor in satisfying the Guaranteed
Obligations, so that each Guarantor that remains obligated under the Guaranty at the time that a Funding Guarantor makes such payment (a “Remaining Guarantor”) and has a positive Maximum Net Worth shall bear a portion of such payment equal
to the percentage that such Remaining Guarantor’s Maximum Net Worth bears to the aggregate Maximum Net Worth of all Remaining Guarantors that have positive Maximum Net Worth. 
  
 As used herein, “Net Worth” means, with respect to any Guarantor, the amount, as of any date of calculation, by
which the sum of a Person’s assets (including subrogation, indemnity, contribution, reimbursement and similar rights that such Guarantor may have notwithstanding Section 13.5), determined on the basis of a “fair valuation” or their
“fair salable value” (whichever is the applicable test under Section 548 and other relevant provisions of the Bankruptcy Code or other Bankruptcy Law and the relevant state fraudulent conveyance or transfer laws) is greater than the amount
that will be required to pay all of such Person’s debts, in each case matured or unmatured, contingent or otherwise, as of the date of calculation, but excluding liabilities arising under the Guaranty and excluding, to the maximum extent
permitted by applicable law with the objective of avoiding rendering such Person insolvent, liabilities subordinated to the Guaranteed Obligations arising out of loans or advances made to such Person by any other Person. “Maximum Net
Worth” means, with respect to any Guarantor, the greatest of the Net Worths calculated as of the following dates: (A) the date on which the Guarantor becomes a Guarantor hereunder, (B) the date on which such Guarantor expressly reaffirms the
Guaranty, (C) the date on which demand for payment is made on such Guarantor hereunder, (D) the date on which payment is made by such Guarantor hereunder or (E) the date on which any judgment, order or decree is entered requiring such Guarantor to
make payment hereunder or in respect hereof. The meaning of the terms “fair valuation” and “fair salable value” and the calculation of assets and liabilities shall be determined and made in accordance with the relevant provisions
of the Bankruptcy Code, other Bankruptcy Law and applicable state fraudulent conveyance or transfer laws.

Section 13.10. Additional Guarantors. 
  
 Each Subsidiary that executes and delivers to the Trustee from time to time an Addendum to Guaranty after the Issue Date shall, from and after the date of such execution and delivery, be a Guarantor with the same effect as if such
Subsidiary had been a signatory to this Indenture, and no such Addendum to Guaranty must be executed and delivered by any other Obligors. Each Obligor hereby consents to the execution, delivery and effectiveness of any such Addendum, whether or not
it receives notice thereof. Subject to compliance with applicable Gaming Laws, each Person that becomes a Material Restricted Subsidiary of the Company after the date hereof shall automatically be deemed to be a Guarantor for all purposes of this
Indenture, notwithstanding any such Material Restricted Subsidiary’s failure to execute and deliver an Addendum to Guaranty as required by Section 4.16 hereof. 
  
 
Section 13.11. Release of a Guarantor. 
  
 (a) Upon either (a) the designation of a Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture or (b) the substitution of a successor Person for any Guarantor as contemplated by
Section 5.2 hereof, such Guarantor shall be released from, and thereupon cease to have or accrue any further liability under, its Guaranty. Upon receipt of an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel as to compliance with this Section 13.11
and, if applicable, the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary”, the Trustee shall deliver to the Company an appropriate instrument evidencing such release. 
  
 (b) In the event of any sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of any Guarantor, by way of
merger, consolidation or otherwise, or a sale or other disposition of all of the Capital Stock of any Guarantor, in each case to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transactions) the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary
of the Company, then such Guarantor (in the event of a sale or other disposition, by way of merger, consolidation or otherwise, of all of the Capital Stock of such Guarantor) or the corporation acquiring the property (in the event of a sale or other
disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of such Guarantor) will be released and relieved of any obligations under its Guarantee; provided that the Net Cash Proceeds of such sale or other disposition are applied in accordance
with the applicable provisions of this Indenture, including without limitation Section 4.9 hereof. Upon delivery by the Company to the Trustee of an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such sale or other
disposition was made in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, including without limitation Section 4.9 hereof, the Trustee will execute any documents reasonably required in order to evidence the release of any Guarantor from its
obligations under its Guarantee.

until maturity. The Company will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on October 1 and April 1 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

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 of twelve 30-day months.

 2. Method of Payment. The Company will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the
Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on September 15 and March 15 next preceding the 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 and interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose within or without the City and State of
New York, or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest 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 and premium on, all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided wire transfer instructions to the Company or the Paying Agent. Such payment shall be in such coin or
currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. 
  
 3. Paying Agent and Registrar. Initially, The Bank of New York, the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may
change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

Indenture”), as amended and supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of September 25, 2003 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”) among the Company, the
Guarantors and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (15 U.S. Code §§ 77aaa-77bbbb). The Notes are subject
to all such terms in the First Supplemental Indenture, and Holders are referred to the First Supplemental Indenture and such Act for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the
Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The Notes are unsecured obligations of the Company. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be issued thereunder. 
  
 5. Optional Redemption. The Company shall have the option to redeem the
Notes, in whole or in part, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount thereof) set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest to the applicable redemption

	  	100.000	%

foregoing, (a) the Company may at any time prior to October 1, 2006, redeem up to 35% of the initially outstanding aggregate principal amount of Notes with the net cash proceeds of one or more Public Equity Offerings of the common stock of the
Company at a redemption price in cash of 108.750% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date; provided that at least 65% of the initially outstanding aggregate principal amount of Notes remains
outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption; and provided, further, that written notice of any such redemption shall be given by the Company to the Holders and the Trustee within 15 days after the consummation of any such Public
Equity Offering and redemption shall occur

Table of Contents


 within 60 days after the date of such notice and (b) if any Gaming Authority makes a determination of unsuitability of a
Holder or beneficial owner of Notes (or an Affiliate of such Holder or beneficial owner), or requires that a Holder or beneficial owner of Notes (or an Affiliate thereof) must be licensed, qualified or found suitable under any applicable Gaming Law
and such Holder or beneficial owner (or an Affiliate thereof) (i) fails to apply for a license, qualification or a finding of suitability within 30 days (or such shorter period as may be required by the applicable Gaming Authority) after being
requested to do so by the Gaming Authority or (ii) is denied such license or qualification or not found suitable, the Company shall have the right, at its option, (A) to require such Holder or beneficial owner to dispose of its Notes within 30 days
(or such earlier date as may be required by the applicable Gaming Authority) of receipt of such notice or finding by such Gaming Authority or (B) to call for the redemption of the Notes of such Holder or beneficial owner at a redemption price equal
to the least of (x) the principal amount thereof, (y) the price at which such Holder or beneficial owner acquired the Notes, in either case, together with, accrued interest to the earlier of the date of redemption or the date of the denial of
license or qualification or of the finding of unsuitability by such Gaming Authority or (z) such other lesser amount as may be required by any Gaming Authority. Immediately upon a determination by a Gaming Authority that a Holder or beneficial owner
of Notes will not be licensed, qualified or found suitable, the Holder or beneficial owner will not have any further rights with respect to the Notes to (a) exercise, directly or indirectly, through any Person, any right conferred by the Notes, or
(b) receive any interest or any other distribution or payment with respect to the Notes, or any remuneration in any form from the Company for services rendered or otherwise, except the redemption price of the Notes. The Company shall notify the
Trustee in writing of any such redemption as soon as practicable. The Holder or beneficial owner applying for license, qualification or a finding of suitability must pay all costs of the licensure or investigation for such qualification or finding
of suitability. 
  
 6. Mandatory Redemption. Except as set forth
in paragraph 7 below, the Company shall not be required to make mandatory redemption payments with respect to the Notes. 
  
 7. Repurchase at Option of Holders. 
  
 (a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each Holder will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or
an integral multiple thereof) of such Holder’s Notes pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”) at an offer price in cash (the “Change in Control Payment”) equal to 101% of the aggregate principal
amount of Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of repurchase. Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Company will mail a notice to each Holder and the Trustee describing the transactions or transactions that constitute
the Change of Control and offering to repurchase Notes on the date specified in such notice, which date shall be no earlier than 30 days from the date such notice is mailed (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), pursuant to the procedures
required by this Indenture and described in such notice and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed. 
  
 (b) If the Company or a Subsidiary consummates any Asset Sales and the aggregate amount of Net Proceeds Offer Amount exceeds $10 million, the Company
shall commence an offer to all Holders of Notes (as “Net Proceeds Offer”) pursuant to Section 3.9 of the Indenture to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes (including any Additional Notes) and other pari passu indebtedness
that may be purchased out of the Net Proceeds Offer Amount at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance
with the procedures set forth in the Indenture. To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes (including any Additional Notes) and other pari passu indebtedness tendered pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer is less than the Net Proceeds Offer
Amount, the Company (or such Subsidiary) may use such deficiency for general corporate purposes. If the aggregate principal amount of

 Notes (including any Additional Notes) and other pari passu indebtedness surrendered by Holders thereof exceeds

require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note
being redeemed in part. Also, the Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a record date and the corresponding Interest Payment

 11.
Amendment, Supplement and Waiver. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture, the Guarantees or the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes and
Additional Notes, if any, voting as a single class, and any existing default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes
and Additional Notes, if any, voting as a single class. Without the consent of any Holder of a Note, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, to provide for uncertificated Notes in
addition to or in place of certificated Notes, to provide for the assumption of the Company’s obligations to Holders of the Notes in case of a merger or consolidation, to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to
the Holders of the Notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under the Indenture of any such Holder, to comply with the requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust
Indenture Act, to allow any Guarantor to execute a supplemental indenture and/or a Guarantee with respect to the Notes, or to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in accordance with the limitations set forth in the Indenture.

  
 12. Defaults and Remedies. Events of Default include: (i)
default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on with respect to the Notes or the Guarantees; (ii) default in payment when due of principal of or premium, if any, on the Notes or the Guarantees when the same becomes due and payable at
maturity, upon acceleration, redemption (including in connection with an offer to purchase) or otherwise, (iii) failure by any Obligor for 60 days after notice to the Company by the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the
Notes then outstanding to comply with certain agreements in the Indenture or the Notes; (iv) default under certain other agreements relating to Indebtedness of the Obligors which default results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its
express maturity; (v) certain final judgments for the payment of money that remain undischarged for a

 period of 60 days; and (vi) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing,
the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy
or insolvency, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of
Default relating to the payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of
the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest on, or the principal of, the Notes. The Company is
required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the Company is required upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default or
Event of Default. 
  
 13. Subordination of Notes and Guarantees.
The Indebtedness evidenced by this Note and the Guarantees in respect hereof is, to the extent and in the manner provided in the Indenture, subordinate in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Debt and subject to the other
subordination provisions set forth in Article 10 of the Indenture. The Holder of this Note, by its acceptance hereof, (a) agrees to be bound by such provisions, (b) authorizes and directs the Trustee, on behalf of such Holder, to take such action as
may be necessary to or appropriate to effectuate the subordination as provided in the Indenture and (c) appoints the Trustee attorney-in-fact of such Holder for the purpose of taking any such action in the name of the Holder. 
  
 14. Trustee Dealings with Obligors. The Trustee, in its individual or any
other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Obligors or their Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Obligors or their Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee. 
  
 15. No Recourse Against Others. A director, officer, employee, incorporator
or stockholder, of the Company or any of the Guarantors, as such, shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company or such Guarantor under the Notes, the Guarantees or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by
reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes. 
  
 16. Authentication. This Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the
manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent. 
  
 17. Abbreviations. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as
tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act). 
  
 18. CUSIP Numbers. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP
numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other
identification numbers placed thereon.
