The Notes will be payable as to principal, premium, if any, interest, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any, at the office or agency of the Paying Agent and Registrar within the City and State of New York, or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds for Global Notes or by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders. Such payment will 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 Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change the Paying Agent or Registrar without prior notice to the Holders. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the TIA. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the 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.


 


(5) OPTIONAL REDEMPTION.


 


(A) At any time prior to _____, 20__, the Company may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under the Indenture at a redemption price equal to __% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption (subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date), with the net cash proceeds of one or more equity offerings by the Company; provided that:


 


(1) at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of the initial notes (excluding Notes held by the Company and its Subsidiaries) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption; and

(B) At any time prior to _____, 20__, the Company may on any one or more occasions redeem all or a part of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus the applicable premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the applicable date of redemption, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date.

(D) The Company may redeem the Notes, in whole but not in part, at its discretion at any time upon giving not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' prior notice to the Holders (which notice will be irrevocable and given in accordance with the Indenture), at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date fixed by the Company for redemption (a "Tax Redemption Date") and all Additional Amounts, if any, then due and which will become due on the Tax Redemption Date as a result of the redemption or otherwise (subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date and Additional Amounts, if any, in respect thereof), if on the next date on which any amount would be payable in respect of the Notes, the Company is or would be required to pay Additional Amounts, and the Company cannot avoid any such payment obligation by taking reasonable measures available (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the appointment of a new Paying Agent), and the requirement arises as a result of:


 


(1) any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of the relevant tax jurisdiction affecting taxation, which change or amendment has not been publicly announced before and which becomes effective on or after the date on which the tax jurisdiction imposing the relevant withholding or deduction became the applicable tax jurisdiction under the Indenture; or


 


(2) any change in, or amendment to, the existing official position regarding the application, administration or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings (including a holding, judgment or order by a court of competent jurisdiction or a change in published practice), which change, amendment, application or interpretation has not been publicly announced before and becomes effective on or after the date on which the tax jurisdiction imposing the relevant withholding or deduction became the applicable tax jurisdiction under the Indenture).


 


(E) In the event that not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes are properly tendered and not withdrawn under a Change of Control Offer (as defined in Section 7(a) below) and the Company purchases all of such Notes, the Company will have the right, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' prior notice, given not more than 30 days following the change of control purchase date, to redeem all of the Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price equal to the Change of Control Payment (as defined in Section 7(a) below) plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Payment, accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes that remain outstanding, to the date of redemption (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date).


 


(F) Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable redemption date.


 


(6) MANDATORY REDEMPTION. _______________________________________________________________.


 


(7) REPURCHASE AT THE OPTION OF HOLDER. Subject to the additional terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture:






  





  











  








 


(A) If there is a change of control, the Company will be required to make an offer (a "Change of Control Offer") to each Holder to repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder's Notes at a purchase price in cash (the "Change of Control Payment") equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to the change of control purchase date, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date. Within 30 days following any change of control, the Company will mail a notice to each Holder setting forth the procedures governing the Change of Control Offer as required by the Indenture.







(B) If the Company or a restricted subsidiary of the Company consummates any asset sales, within five days of each date on which the aggregate amount of excess proceeds exceeds $__ million (the “Excess Proceeds”), the Company will make an asset sale offer (an “Asset Sale Offer”), in accordance with the Indenture, to all Holders and all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes containing provisions similar to those set forth in the Indenture with respect to offers to purchase, prepay or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets to purchase, prepay or redeem the maximum principal amount of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness (plus all accrued interest on the Indebtedness and the amount of all fees and expenses, including premiums, incurred in connection therewith) that may be purchased, prepaid or redeemed out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase, prepayment or redemption, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date, and will be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by the Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness tendered in (or required to be prepaid or redeemed in connection with) such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Company will select the Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis (except that any Notes represented in global form will be selected by such method as the Depositary or its nominee or successor may require or, where the nominee or successor is the Trustee, a method that most nearly approximates pro rata selection as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate), based on the amounts tendered or required to be prepaid or redeemed (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Company so that only Notes in denominations of $1,000, or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, will be purchased). Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero. Holders that are the subject of an offer to purchase will receive an Asset Sale Offer from the Company prior to any related purchase date and may elect to have such Notes purchased by completing the form entitled "Option of Holder to Elect Purchase" attached to the Notes.


 


(8) NOTICE OF REDEMPTION. At least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Company will mail or cause to be mailed, by first-class mail, a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address. Notes and portions of Notes selected will be in amounts of $1,000 or whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed or purchased, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder shall be redeemed or purchased. No Notes of $1,000 or less in principal amount can be redeemed in part.


 


(9) DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE. The Notes are in registered form in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Company may 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 Business Days prior to the mailing of notice of any offer to repurchase the Notes.


 


(10) PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as the owner of it for all purposes. Only registered Holders have rights under the Indenture.


 


(11) AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including additional notes, if any) voting as a single class, and any existing Default or Event of Default (other than (i) a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest, if any, on, or any Additional Amounts with respect to the Notes or (ii) a Default in respect of a provision that under the Indenture cannot be amended or supplemented without the consent of each Holder affected) or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including additional notes, if any) voting as a single class. Without the consent of any Holder, 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 the case of a merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets, as applicable, in accordance with the Indenture, to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under the Indenture of any Holder, to comply with the requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA, to conform the text of the Indenture or the Notes to any provision of the "Description of Notes" section of the Company's Prospectus dated _____, 20__, as filed with the SEC on _____, 20__, relating to the initial offering of the Notes, to the extent that such provision in that "Description of Notes" was intended to be a substantially verbatim recitation of a provision of the Indenture or the Notes, which intent may be evidenced by an Officers' Certificate to that effect, to provide for the issuance of additional notes in accordance with the limitations set forth in the Indenture as of the Issue Date, or to evidence or provide for the acceptance of appointment under the Indenture of a successor Trustee.


 


(12) DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. Events of Default include: (i) default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest, if any, or any Additional Amounts, on, the Notes; (ii) default in the payment when due (at maturity, upon redemption or otherwise) of the principal of, or premium, if any, on the Notes, (iii) failure by the Company or any of its restricted subsidiaries to comply with certain provisions of the Indenture relating to merger, consolidation or sale of assets or to consummate a purchase of Notes when required pursuant to the Indenture; (iv) failure by the Company or any of its restricted subsidiaries for 60 days after notice to the Company by the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding voting as a single class to comply with any other agreements in the Indenture; (v) default under certain other agreements relating to certain indebtedness of the Company or any of its restricted subsidiaries which default is a payment default or results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity; (vi) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company or any of its restricted subsidiaries that is a significant subsidiary or any group of restricted subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a significant subsidiary. In the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency described in clause (vi), all outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate 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. The Trustee may withhold from Holders notice of any Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal, premium, if any, interest, if any, or Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes) if and so long as a committee of Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determines that withholding notice is in the interests of the Holders. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of all the Holders, waive an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under the Indenture, except (i) a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest, if any, on, or any Additional Amounts with respect to the Notes (including in connection with an Asset Sale Offer or Change of Control Offer) and (ii) a Default in respect of a provision that under the Indenture cannot be amended or supplemented without the consent of each Holder affected. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, rescind an acceleration and its consequences under the Indenture, if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree, if all existing Events of Default (except nonpayment of principal of, premium, if any, interest, if any, on, or any Additional Amounts with respect to the Notes that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or waived and if the Company has paid or deposited certain amounts with the Trustee. 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) TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH COMPANY. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Company or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee.


 


(14) NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. No director, officer, employee, incorporator or shareholder of the Company, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes, 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 issuance of the Notes. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws.


 


                (15) AUTHENTICATION. This Note will not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent.
