Indebtedness (other than in the case of revolving credit borrowings or revolving advances in which
case interest expense shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Indebtedness
during the applicable period) or issues, repurchases or redeems Disqualified Stock or Preferred
Stock subsequent to the commencement of the period for which the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is
being calculated but prior to the event for which the calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage
Ratio is made (the “Calculation Date”), then the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be calculated
giving pro forma effect to such Incurrence, repayment, repurchase or redemption of Indebtedness, or
such issuance, repurchase or redemption of Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, as if the same
had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period; provided, however, that the
pro forma calculation of Consolidated Interest Expense shall not give effect to (a) any
Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock Incurred or issued on the date of determination
pursuant to Section 4.03(b) and (b) the repayment, repurchase or redemption of any Indebtedness,

Restricted Subsidiaries has determined to make or made during the four-quarter reference period or
subsequent to such reference period and on or prior to or simultaneously with



21









 




the Calculation Date (each, for purposes of this definition, a “pro forma event”) shall be
calculated on a pro forma basis assuming that all such Investments, acquisitions, dispositions,
mergers, amalgamations and consolidations (in each case including the Transactions), discontinued
operations and operational changes (and the change of any associated Fixed Charges (calculated in
accordance with the proviso in the prior paragraph) and the change in EBITDA resulting therefrom)
had occurred on the first day of the four-quarter reference period. If since the beginning of such
period any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged with or into BP I
or BP II or any Restricted Subsidiary since the beginning of such period shall have made any
Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, amalgamation, consolidation, discontinued operation
or operational change, in each case with respect to an operating unit of a business, that would
have required adjustment pursuant to this definition, then the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be
calculated giving pro forma effect thereto for such period as if such Investment, acquisition,
disposition, discontinued operation, merger, consolidation or operational change had occurred at
the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period.




     For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to any pro forma
event, the pro forma calculations shall be made in good faith by a responsible financial or
accounting officer of BP I or BP II. Any such pro forma calculation may include adjustments
appropriate, in the reasonable good faith determination of BP I or BP II as set forth in an
Officers’ Certificate, to reflect operating expense reductions and other operating improvements or
synergies reasonably expected to result from the applicable pro forma event (including, to the
extent applicable, from the Transactions).



     If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the
interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the Calculation Date
had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Hedging Obligations
applicable to such Indebtedness if such Hedging Obligation has a remaining term in excess of 12
months). Interest on a Capitalized Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate
reasonably determined by a responsible financial or accounting officer of BP I or BP II to be the
rate of interest implicit in such Capitalized Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP. For
purposes of making the computation referred to above, interest on any Indebtedness under a
revolving credit facility computed on a pro forma basis shall be computed based upon the average
daily balance of such Indebtedness during the applicable period. Interest on Indebtedness that may
optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a
eurocurrency interbank offered rate, or other rate, shall be deemed to have been based upon the
rate actually chosen, or, if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as the Issuers may
designate.



     “Fixed Charges” means, with respect to any Person for any period, the sum, without
duplication, of:

this Senior Notes Indenture shall be computed in conformity with GAAP. At any time after the Issue
Date, BP I, BP II and the Issuers may elect to apply generally accepted accounting principles in
the United States (“US GAAP”) in lieu of GAAP and, upon any such election, references herein to
GAAP shall thereafter be construed to mean US GAAP as in effect (except as otherwise provided in
this Senior Notes Indenture) on the date of such election; provided that any such election, once
made, shall be irrevocable and that, upon first reporting its fiscal year results under US GAAP
each of BP I, BP II and each of the Issuers shall restate its financial statements on the basis of
US GAAP for the fiscal year ending immediately prior to the first fiscal year for which financial
statements have been prepared on the basis of US GAAP; provided further, however, that in the event
BP I, BP II and the Issuers have made such an election and are thereafter required by applicable
law to apply IFRS in lieu of US GAAP (or IFRS is a successor to US GAAP) (any such change, a
“Required Change”), they shall be entitled to apply IFRS, and that upon subsequently reporting its
fiscal year results on the basis of IFRS in lieu of US GAAP each of BP I, BP II and each of the
Issuers shall restate its financial statements on the basis of IFRS for the fiscal year ending
immediately prior to the fiscal year after such Required Change. In the event that BP I, BP II and
the Issuers are required to make the Required Change, references herein to GAAP shall be construed
to mean IFRS as in effect on the date of such Required Change. The Issuers shall give notice of
election to apply US GAAP or requirement to apply IFRS to the Trustee and the Holders.

Leverage Ratio, Secured Indebtedness shall not include any Indebtedness represented by the

repays, repurchases or redeems any Secured Indebtedness subsequent to the commencement of the
period for which the Secured Leverage Ratio is being calculated but prior to the event for which
the calculation of the Secured Leverage Ratio is made (the “Secured Leverage Calculation Date”),

dispositions, mergers, amalgamations, consolidations (including the Transactions) and discontinued
operations (as determined in accordance with GAAP), in each case with respect to an operating unit
of a business, and any operational changes that BP I, BP II or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries
has determined to make or have made during the four-quarter reference period or subsequent to such
reference period and on or prior to or simultaneously with the Secured Leverage Calculation Date
(each, for purposes of this definition, a “pro forma event”) shall be calculated on a pro forma
basis assuming that all such Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, amalgamations,
consolidations (including the Transactions), discontinued operations and other operational changes
(and the change of any associated Secured Indebtedness and the change in EBITDA resulting
therefrom) had occurred on the first day of the four-quarter reference period. If since the
beginning of such period any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged
with or into BP I, BP II or any Restricted Subsidiary since the beginning of such period shall have
made any Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, amalgamation, consolidation, discontinued
operation or operational change, in each case with respect to an operating unit of a business, that
would have required adjustment pursuant to this definition, then the Secured Leverage Ratio shall
be calculated giving pro forma effect thereto for such period as if such Investment, acquisition,
disposition, discontinued operation, merger, amalgamation, consolidation or operational change had
occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period.



     For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to any pro forma
event, the pro forma calculations shall be made in good faith by a responsible financial or
accounting officer of the Issuers. Any such pro forma calculation may include adjustments
appropriate, in the reasonable good faith determination of the Issuers as set forth in an Officers’



43









 




Certificate, to reflect operating expense reductions and other operating improvements or
synergies reasonably expected to result from the applicable pro forma event (including, to the

Indebtedness represented by such Additional Senior Notes is at such time permitted by Section 4.03
and (ii) such Additional Senior Notes are issued in compliance with Section 4.12 and the other
applicable provisions of this Senior Notes Indenture. With respect to any Additional Senior Notes

of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Senior Notes pursuant to Section 2.07,
2.08, 2.09, 2.10, 4.06(g), 4.08(c) or Appendix A), there shall be (a) established in or pursuant to
a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Issuers or BP I and (b) (i) set forth or determined
in the manner provided in an Officers’ Certificate or (ii) established in one or more indentures
supplemental hereto, prior to the issuance of such Additional Senior Notes:

authenticated and delivered under this Senior Notes Indenture;



54









 






     (2) the issue price and issuance date of such Additional Senior Notes,
including the date from which interest on such Additional Senior Notes shall accrue;




     (3) if applicable, that such Additional Senior Notes shall be issuable in whole
or in part in the form of one or more Global Senior Securities and, in such case,
the respective depositaries for such Global Senior Securities, the form of any
legend or legends which shall be borne by such Global Senior Securities in addition
to or in lieu of those set forth in Exhibit A hereto and any circumstances in
addition to or in lieu of those set forth in Section 2.3 of Appendix A in which any
such Global Security may be exchanged in whole or in part for Additional Senior
Notes registered, or any transfer of such Global Security in whole or in part may be
registered, in the name or names of Persons other than the depositary for such
Global Security or a nominee thereof; and




     (4) whether such Additional Senior Notes shall be Original Senior Notes or
shall be issued in the form of Senior Exchange Securities as set forth in Exhibit A.



          If any of the terms of any Additional Senior Notes are established by action taken pursuant to
a resolution of the Board of Directors of any Issuer or BP I, a copy of an appropriate record of
such action shall be certified by an Officer or authorized signatory of the applicable Issuer or BP
I and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Officers’ Certificate or the
indenture supplemental hereto setting forth the terms of the Additional Senior Notes.



          The Senior Notes, including any Additional Senior Notes, shall be treated as a single class
for all purposes under this Senior Notes Indenture, including waivers, amendments, redemptions and
offers to purchase. Unless the context otherwise requires, for all purposes of this Senior Notes
Indenture, references to the Senior Notes include any Additional Senior Notes actually issued.



          SECTION 2.02. Form and Dating. Provisions relating to the Senior Notes and the
Senior Exchange Securities are set forth in Appendix A, which is hereby incorporated in and
expressly made a part of this Senior Notes Indenture. The (i) Senior Notes and the Trustee’s
certificate of authentication and (ii) any Additional Senior Notes (if issued as Senior Notes
Transfer Restricted Securities) and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall each be
substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a
part of this Senior Notes Indenture. The Senior Exchange Securities shall be in substantially the
form of Exhibit A hereto, as applicable, except that the Senior Exchange Securities shall not
contain the “Restricted Securities Legend”, as set forth in Exhibit A hereto. The Senior Notes may
have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule, agreements to which
any Issuer or any Senior Note Guarantor is subject, if any, or usage (provided that any such
notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Issuers). Each Senior Note shall be
dated the date of its authentication. The Senior Notes shall be issuable only in registered form
without interest coupons and in minimum denominations of $100,000 and integral multiples of $1,000
in excess thereof. The Global Senior Securities shall be in registered form without interest
coupons and the Definitive Securities shall be in registered form



55









 




without interest coupons. Each Global Security shall represent such of the outstanding Senior
Notes as shall be specified in the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Security”
attached thereto and each shall provide that it shall represent up to the aggregate principal
amount of Senior Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount
of outstanding Senior Notes represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as
applicable, to reflect exchanges and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Security to reflect
the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Senior
Notes represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee or the Registrar, at the direction of the
Trustee, in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.03
hereof.




          SECTION 2.03. Execution and Authentication. The Trustee shall authenticate and in
the case of a Global Security registered in the name of DTC or its nominee, hold such Global
Security as custodian for DTC, and in the case of a Global Security registered in the name of a
common depositary, deliver to such common depositary upon a written order of the Issuers signed by
one Officer or authorized signatory of each Issuer (an “Authentication Order”) (a) Senior Notes for
original issue on the date hereof in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000,000, (b) pursuant
to a Senior Notes Registered Exchange Offer, Senior Exchange Securities from time to time for issue
only in a Senior Notes Registered Exchange Offer and (c) subject to the terms of this Senior Notes
Indenture, Additional Senior Notes in an aggregate principal amount to be determined at the time of
issuance and specified therein. Such order shall specify the amount of the Senior Notes to be

of Additional Senior Notes after the Issue Date shall be in a principal amount of at least $100,000
and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.



          One Officer or authorized signatory of each Issuer shall sign the Senior Notes for the Issuers
by manual or facsimile signature.



          If an Officer or authorized signatory whose signature is on a Senior Note no longer holds that
office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Senior Note, the Senior Note shall be valid
nevertheless.



          Prior to authentication of the Senior Notes, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive the
Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel required pursuant to Sections 13.03 and 13.04.



          A Senior Note shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee manually signs
the certificate of authentication on the Senior Note. The signature shall be conclusive evidence
that the Senior Note has been authenticated under this Senior Notes Indenture.



          The Trustee may appoint one or more authenticating agents reasonably acceptable to the Issuers
to authenticate the Senior Note. Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an instrument signed
by a Trust Officer, a copy of which shall be furnished to the Issuers. Unless limited by the terms
of such appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate Senior Notes whenever the Trustee may
do so. Each reference in this Senior Notes Indenture to authentication



56









 




by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same
rights as any Registrar, Paying Agent or agent for service of notices and demands.




          SECTION 2.04. Registrar, Transfer Agent and Paying Agent. (a) The Issuers shall
maintain (i) one or more paying agents (each, a “Paying Agent”) for the Senior Notes in each of (A)

2003/48/EC regarding the taxation of savings income (the “Directive”) or any other directive
implementing the conclusions of the ECOFIN Council meeting of 26-27 November 2000 on the taxation
of savings income, or any law implementing, complying with or introduced in order to conform to
such directive, in each case where Senior Notes may be presented for payment (ii) one or more
registrars (each, a “Registrar”) and (iii) a transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) in New York, NY
where the Senior Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange. The Issuers
may have one or more additional co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term
“Registrar” includes the Registrar and any additional co-registrars. The term “Paying Agent”
includes the Principal Paying Agent and any additional paying agents. The initial Paying Agent
shall be The Bank of New York Mellon in New York, NY (the “Principal Paying Agent”) and in London,
England (it being understood that the Paying Agent shall not be required to maintain an office in
London, England). The initial Registrar shall be The Bank of New York Mellon in New York, NY. The
initial Transfer Agent shall be The Bank of New York Mellon, in New York, NY. Each hereby accepts
such appointments. The Registrar shall maintain a register outside the United Kingdom reflecting
ownership of Senior Notes outstanding from time to time and the Transfer Agent shall facilitate
transfers of Definitive Securities on behalf of the Issuers. The Transfer Agent shall perform the
functions of a transfer agent.



          (b) The Issuers may enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Registrar or Paying
Agent not a party to this Senior Notes Indenture. The agreement shall implement the provisions of
this Senior Notes Indenture that relate to such Agent. The Issuers shall notify the Trustee of the
name and address of any such Agent. If the Issuers fail to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent,
the Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant
to Section 7.07. BP I or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar, subject to
the requirement to maintain a paying agent in a European Union member state that shall not be
obliged to withhold or deduct tax pursuant to the Directive.



          (c) The Issuers may change any Registrar, Paying Agent or Transfer Agent upon written notice
to such Registrar, Paying Agent or Transfer Agent and to the Trustee, without prior notice to
Holders; provided, however, that no such removal shall become effective until acceptance of an
appointment by a successor as evidenced by an appropriate agreement entered into by the Issuers and
such successor Registrar or Paying Agent as the case may be, and delivered to the Trustee;
provided, further, that, in no event may the Issuers appoint a Paying Agent in any member state of
the European Union where the Paying Agent would be obliged to withhold or deduct tax in connection
with any payment made by it in relation to the Senior Notes unless the Paying Agent would be so
obliged if it were located in all other member states. The Registrar or Paying Agent may resign at
any time upon written notice to the Issuers and the Trustee in accordance with Section 7.08.



57









 





          (d) Upon written request from the Luxembourg Issuer, the Registrar shall provide the
Luxembourg Issuer with a copy of the register to enable it to maintain a register of the Senior
Notes at its registered office.



          SECTION 2.05. Paying Agent to Hold Money. At least one Business Day prior to each
due date of the principal of and interest on any Senior Note, the Issuers shall deposit with each
Paying Agent (or if the Issuers, BP I or any of its Subsidiaries is acting as Paying Agent,
segregate and hold for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto) a sum in immediately available
funds sufficient to pay such principal and interest when so becoming due. The Issuers shall
require each Paying Agent to agree in writing (and the Initial Paying Agents hereby agree) that a
Paying Agent shall hold for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by a Paying Agent
for the payment of principal of and interest on the Senior Notes, and shall notify the Trustee of
any default by the Issuers in making any such payment. If the Issuers, BP I or any of its
Subsidiaries acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money held by it as Paying Agent and hold
it for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto. The Issuers at any time may require a Paying
Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by such
Paying Agent. Upon complying with this Section 2.05, a Paying Agent shall have no further
liability for the money delivered to the Trustee. This Section 2.05 shall only be applicable after
the Escrow Release Date.



          SECTION 2.06. 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 Holders.
If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuers shall furnish, or cause the Registrar to furnish,
to the Trustee, in writing at least five Business Days before a payment date on the Senior Notes of
each year following the Issue Date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a
list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and
addresses of Holders.



          SECTION 2.07. Transfer and Exchange. The Senior Notes shall be issued in registered
form and shall be transferable only upon the surrender of a Senior Note for registration of
transfer and in compliance with Appendix A. When a Senior Note is presented to the Registrar with
a request to register a transfer, the Registrar shall register the transfer as requested if its
requirements therefor are met. To permit registration of transfers and exchanges, the Issuers
shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Senior Notes at the Registrar’s request. The
Issuers may require payment of a sum sufficient to pay all taxes, assessments or other governmental
charges in connection with any transfer or exchange pursuant to this Section 2.07. The Issuers
shall not be required to make, and the Registrar need not register, transfers or exchanges of
Senior Notes selected for redemption (except, in the case of Senior Notes to be redeemed in part,
the portion thereof not to be redeemed) or of any Senior Notes for a period of 15 days before a
selection of Senior Notes to be redeemed.



          Prior to registration of transfer of any Senior Note, the Issuers, the Senior Note Guarantors,
the Trustee, the Paying Agents, the Transfer Agent and the Registrar may deem and treat the Person
in whose name a Senior Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Senior Note for the purpose
of receiving payment of principal of and interest, if any, on such Senior Note and for all other
purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Senior Note is overdue, and



58









 




none of the Issuers, any Senior Note Guarantor, the Trustee, the Paying Agents, the Transfer
Agent or the Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary.




          Any Holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Security shall, by acceptance of such
beneficial interest, agree that transfers of beneficial interests in such Global Security may be
effected only through a book-entry system maintained by (a) the Holder of such Global Security (or
its agent) or (b) any Holder of a beneficial interest in such Global Security, and that ownership
of a beneficial interest in such Global Security shall be required to be reflected in a book-entry.



          All Senior Notes issued upon any transfer or exchange pursuant to the terms of this Senior
Notes Indenture shall evidence the same debt and shall be entitled to the same benefits under this
Senior Notes Indenture as the Senior Notes surrendered upon such transfer or exchange.



          SECTION 2.08. Replacement Senior Notes. If a mutilated Senior Note is surrendered to
the Registrar or if the Holder of a Senior Note claims that the Senior Note has been lost,
destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Issuers shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a
replacement Senior Note if the requirements of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code are
met, such that the Holder (a) satisfies the Issuers or the Trustee within a reasonable time after
such Holder has notice of such loss, destruction or wrongful taking and the Registrar does not
register a transfer prior to receiving such notification, (b) makes such request to the Issuers or
the Trustee prior to the Senior Note being acquired by a protected purchaser as defined in Section
8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code (a “protected purchaser”) and (c) satisfies any other
requirements of the Trustee. If required by the Trustee or the Issuers, such Holder shall provide
an indemnity or security sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee or the Issuers to protect the
Issuers, the Trustee, the Paying Agents, the Transfer Agent and the Registrar from any loss that
any of them may suffer if a Senior Note is replaced. The Issuers, the Registrar and the Trustee
may charge the Holder for their expenses in replacing a Senior Note (including attorneys’ fees and
disbursements in replacing such Senior Note). In the event any such mutilated, lost, destroyed or
wrongfully taken Senior Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Issuer in its
discretion may pay such Senior Note instead of issuing a new Senior Note in replacement thereof.



          Every replacement Senior Note is an additional obligation of the Issuers.



          The provisions of this Section 2.08 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful)
all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, lost,
destroyed or wrongfully taken Senior Notes.



          SECTION 2.09. Outstanding Senior Notes. Senior Notes outstanding at any time are all
Senior Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by the Registrar or any Agent
in accordance with this Senior Notes Indenture, those delivered to it for cancellation and those
described in this Section as not outstanding. Subject to Section 13.05, a Senior Note does not
cease to be outstanding because the Issuers or any Affiliate of any Issuer holds the Senior Note.



59









 





          If a Senior Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.08 (other than a mutilated Senior Note
surrendered for replacement), it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee and the Issuers
receive proof satisfactory to them that the replaced Senior Note is held by a protected purchaser.
A mutilated Senior Note ceases to be outstanding upon surrender of such Senior Note and replacement
thereof pursuant to Section 2.08.



          If the Trustee or a Paying Agent holds, in accordance with this Senior Notes Indenture, on a
redemption date or maturity date money sufficient to pay all principal and interest payable on that
date with respect to the Senior Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed or maturing, as the case
may be, and the Trustee or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, is not prohibited from paying such
money to the Holders on that date pursuant to the terms of this Senior Notes Indenture, then on and
after that date such Senior Notes (or portions thereof) shall cease to be outstanding and interest
on them ceases to accrue.



          SECTION 2.10. Temporary Senior Notes. In the event that Definitive Securities are to
be issued under the terms of this Senior Notes Indenture, until such Definitive Securities are
ready for delivery, the Issuers may prepare and the Trustee or an agent thereof shall authenticate
temporary Senior Notes. Temporary Senior Notes shall be substantially in the form of Definitive
Securities but may have variations that the Issuers consider appropriate for temporary Senior
Notes. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuers shall prepare and the Trustee or an agent thereof
shall authenticate Definitive Securities and the Registrar and the Agents shall make them available
for delivery in exchange for temporary Senior Notes upon surrender of such temporary Senior Notes
at the office or agency of the Issuers, without charge to the Holder. Until such exchange,
temporary Senior Notes shall be entitled to the same rights, benefits and privileges as Definitive
Securities.



          SECTION 2.11. Cancellation. The Issuers at any time may deliver Senior Notes to the
Registrar for cancellation. Each Paying Agent shall forward to the Registrar any Senior Notes
surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Registrar and no one
else shall cancel all Senior Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment or
cancellation and shall dispose of canceled Senior Notes in accordance with its customary procedures
upon receipt of written instructions from the Issuers. The Issuers may not issue new Senior Notes
to replace Senior Notes it has redeemed, paid or delivered to the Registrar for cancellation. The
Trustee shall not authenticate Senior Notes in place of canceled Senior Notes other than pursuant
to the terms of this Senior Notes Indenture.



          SECTION 2.12. Defaulted Interest. If the Issuers default in a payment of interest on
the Senior Notes, the Issuers shall pay the defaulted interest then borne by the Senior Notes (plus
interest on such defaulted interest to the extent lawful) in any lawful manner. The Issuers may
pay the defaulted interest to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date. The
Issuers shall fix or cause to be fixed any such special record date and payment date to the
reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee and shall promptly deliver or cause to be delivered to each
affected Holder a notice that states the special record date, the payment date and the amount of
defaulted interest to be paid.



          SECTION 2.13. CUSIPs, ISINs, etc. The Issuers in issuing the Senior Notes may use
CUSIPs and ISINs, as applicable and, if so, the Trustee shall use CUSIPs and ISINs, as



60









 




applicable in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that any
such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers, either
as printed on the Senior Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption, that reliance may be
placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Senior Notes and that any such
redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Issuers shall
advise the Trustee and each Agent of any change in the CUSIPs and ISINs.




          SECTION 2.14. Calculation of Principal Amount of Senior Notes. The aggregate
principal amount of the Senior Notes, at any date of determination, shall be the principal amount
of the Senior Notes at such date of determination. With respect to any matter requiring consent,
waiver, approval or other action of the Holders of a specified percentage of the principal amount
of all the Senior Notes, such percentage shall be calculated, on the relevant date of
determination, by dividing (a) the principal amount, as of such date of determination, of Senior
Notes, the Holders of which have so consented, by (b) the aggregate principal amount, as of such
date of determination, of the Senior Notes then outstanding, in each case, as determined in
accordance with the preceding sentence, Section 2.09 and Section 13.05 of this Senior Notes
Indenture. Any such calculation made pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall be made by the Issuers
and delivered to the Trustee pursuant to an Officers’ Certificate.



          SECTION 2.15. Currency. The US Dollar is the sole currency of account and payment
for all sums payable by BP I, BP II, the Issuers or any Senior Note Guarantor under or in
connection with the Senior Notes, including damages. Any amount with respect to the Senior Notes
received or recovered in a currency other than US Dollars, whether as a result of, or the
enforcement of, a judgment or order of a court of any jurisdiction, in the winding-up or
dissolution of the Issuers or any Senior Note Guarantor or otherwise by any noteholder or by the
Trustee, in respect of any sum expressed to be due to it from the Issuers or any Senior Note
Guarantor will only constitute a discharge to the Issuers or any Senior Note Guarantor to the
extent of the US Dollar amount which the recipient is able to purchase with the amount so received
or recovered in that other currency on the date of that receipt or recovery (or, if it is not
practicable to make that purchase on that date, on the first date on which it is practicable to do
so).



          If that US Dollar amount is less than the US Dollar amount expressed to be due to the
recipient or the Trustee under any Senior Note, BP I, BP II, the Issuers and any Senior Note
Guarantor will indemnify such recipient and/or the Trustee against any loss sustained by it as a
result. In any event, BP I, BP II, the Issuers and any Senior Note Guarantor will indemnify the
recipient and/or the Trustee against the cost of making any such purchase. For the purposes of
this currency indemnity provision, it will be prima facie evidence of the matter stated therein for
the holder of a Senior Note or the Trustee to certify in a manner satisfactory to the Issuers
(indicating the sources of information used) the loss it Incurred in making any such purchase.
These indemnities constitute a separate and independent obligation from BP I, BP II, the Issuers
and any Senior Note Guarantor’s other obligations, will give rise to a separate and independent
cause of action, will apply irrespective of any waiver granted by any holder of a Senior Note or
the Trustee (other than a waiver of the indemnities set out herein) and will continue in full force
and effect despite any other judgment, order, claim or proof for a liquidated amount in respect of
any sum due under any Senior Note or to the Trustee.



61









 





          Except as otherwise specifically set forth herein, (a) for purposes of determining compliance
with any euro-denominated restriction herein, the Euro Equivalent amount for purposes hereof that
is denominated in a non-euro currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange
rate in effect on the date such non-euro amount is Incurred or made, as the case may be, and (b)
for purposes of determining compliance with any US Dollar-denominated restriction herein, the US
Dollar Equivalent amount for purposes hereof that is denominated in a non-US Dollar currency shall
be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such non-US Dollar
amount is Incurred or made, as the case may be.



ARTICLE III




Redemption



          SECTION 3.01. Redemption. The Senior Notes may be redeemed, in whole or in part,
from time to time, subject to the conditions and at the redemption prices set forth in Section 5 or
6 of the form of Senior Note set forth in Exhibit A, which are hereby incorporated by reference and
made a part of this Senior Notes Indenture, together with accrued and unpaid interest and premiums
(if any) to the redemption date, and in the case of the Special Mandatory Redemption, to but not
including the redemption date.



          SECTION 3.02. Applicability of Article. Except where not applicable with respect to
the Special Mandatory Redemption addressed in Section 3.09 below, redemption of Senior Notes at the
election of the Issuers or otherwise, as permitted or required by the Senior Notes or any provision
of this Senior Notes Indenture, shall be made in accordance with such provision and this Article.



          SECTION 3.03. Notices to Trustee. If the Issuers elect to redeem Senior Notes
pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of Section 5 or the optional tax redemption
provisions of Section 6 of the form of Senior Note they shall notify the Trustee in writing of (i)
the paragraph of such Senior Note or the Section of this Senior Notes Indenture pursuant to which
the redemption shall occur, (ii) the redemption date and the record date, (iii) the principal
amount of the Senior Notes to be redeemed and (iv) the redemption price. The Issuers shall give
notice to the Trustee provided for in this paragraph at least 30 days but not more than 60 days
before the applicable redemption date, unless a shorter period is acceptable to the Trustee. Such
notice shall be accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel from each Issuer to
the effect that such redemption complies with the conditions herein. If fewer than all of the
Senior Notes are to be redeemed, the record date relating to such redemption shall be selected by
the Issuers and given to the Trustee, which record date shall be not fewer than 15 days after the
date of notice to the Trustee. Any such notice may be canceled at any time prior to notice of such
redemption being delivered to any Holder and shall thereby be void and of no effect.



          In the case of a redemption provided for by Section 6 of the form of Senior Note prior to the
publication or mailing of any notice of redemption of any series of Senior Notes pursuant to the
foregoing, each Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee (with a copy to the relevant Paying Agent) (a)
an Officers’ Certificate stating that they are entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth
a statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to their right so to



62









 




redeem have been satisfied and (b) an opinion of an independent tax counsel of recognized
standing and satisfactory to the Trustee to the effect that the circumstances referred to in
Section 6 of the form of Senior Note exist. The Trustee shall accept such Officers’ Certificate
and opinion as sufficient evidence of the satisfaction of the conditions precedent described above
without further inquiry, in which event it shall be conclusive and binding on the Holders. Any
such notice may be canceled at any time prior to notice of such redemption being mailed to any
Holder and shall thereby be void and of no effect.




          SECTION 3.04. Selection of Senior Notes to Be Redeemed. If less than all of the
Senior Notes are to be redeemed or are required to be repurchased at any time, the Trustee will
select Senior Notes for redemption or repurchase on a pro rata basis, to the extent practicable and
in compliance with the requirements of DTC and any stock exchange on which the applicable Senior
Notes are then admitted to trading of which the Trustee shall have been notified in writing by the
Issuers; provided, however, that no Senior Note of $100,000 in aggregate principal amount or less,
or other than in an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, shall be redeemed in part.



          SECTION 3.05. Notice of Optional Redemption. (a) At least 30 days but not more than
60 days before a redemption date pursuant to Section 5 or Section 6 of the form of Senior Note, the
Issuers shall deliver or cause to be delivered by electronic transmission or mailed by first-class
mail, postage prepaid, at their respective addresses as they appear on the registration books of
the Registrar (or otherwise deliver such notice in accordance with applicable DTC procedures), a
notice of redemption to each Holder whose Senior Notes are to be redeemed; provided, however, that
with respect to Definitive Securities only, the Issuers shall mail such notice to Holders by
first-class mail, postage prepaid, at their respective addresses as they appear on the registration
books of the Registrar.



          Any such notice shall identify the Senior Notes to be redeemed and shall state:




     (i) the redemption date and record date;




     (ii) the redemption price and the amount of accrued interest to the redemption date as
calculated by the Issuers or an agent or adviser thereof;




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




     (iv) that Senior Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent
(or if book-entry, in accordance with DTC procedures) to collect the redemption price, plus
accrued interest;




     (v) if fewer than all the outstanding Senior Notes are to be redeemed, the certificate
numbers and principal amounts of the particular Senior Notes to be redeemed, the aggregate
principal amount of Senior Notes to be redeemed and the aggregate principal amount of Senior
Notes to be outstanding after such partial redemption;




     (vi) that, unless the Issuers default in making such redemption payment or the Paying
Agent is prohibited from making such payment pursuant to the terms of this



63









 






Senior Notes Indenture, interest on the Senior Notes (or a portion thereof) called for
redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date;




     (vii) the paragraph of the Senior Notes and/or Section of this Senior Notes Indenture
pursuant to which the Senior Notes called for redemption are being redeemed;




     (viii) the CUSIP, ISIN and/or the Common Code, if any, printed on the Senior Notes
being redeemed; and




     (ix) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP,
ISIN and/or the Common Code, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Senior Notes.



          (b) At the Issuers’ request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Issuers’
names and at the Issuers’ expense. In such event, the Issuers shall provide the Trustee with the
information required by this Section 3.05 at least one Business Day (or as soon as commercially
practicable thereafter) prior to the date such notice is to be provided to Holders and such notice
may not be canceled.



          (c) If any Senior Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates
to that Senior Note shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. In the
case of a Definitive Security, a new Senior Note in currency and in principal amount equal to the
unredeemed portion of the original Senior Note will be issued in the name of the noteholder thereof
upon cancellation of the original Senior Note. In the case of a Global Senior Security, an
appropriate notation will be made on such Senior Note to decrease the principal amount thereof to
an amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof. Subject to the terms of the applicable
redemption notice, Senior Notes called for redemption become due on the date fixed for redemption.
On and after the redemption date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Senior Notes or portions of
them called for redemption so long as the Issuers have deposited with the Paying Agent funds
sufficient to pay the principal of, plus accrued and unpaid interest and premium (if any) on, the
Senior Notes to be redeemed.



          SECTION 3.06. Effect of Notice of Redemption. Once notice of redemption is delivered
in accordance with Section 3.05, the Senior Notes called for redemption become due and payable on
the redemption date and at the redemption price stated in the notice, except as provided in the
penultimate sentence of the fourth paragraph in Section 5 of the Senior Notes. Upon surrender to
the Paying Agent, such Senior Notes shall be paid at the redemption price stated in the notice,
plus accrued interest, to, but not including, the redemption date; provided, however, that if the
redemption date is after a regular record date and on or prior to the interest payment date, the
accrued interest shall be payable to the Holder of the redeemed Senior Notes registered on the
relevant record date. Failure to give notice or any defect in the notice to any Holder shall not
affect the validity of the notice to any other Holder.



          SECTION 3.07. Deposit of Redemption Price. With respect to any Senior Notes, no
later than 10:00 a.m., New York time, one Business Day prior to the redemption date, the Issuers
shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or, if either Issuer, BP I or any of its Subsidiaries is the
Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold) money in immediately available funds sufficient to



64









 




pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on all of the Senior Notes or portions
thereof to be redeemed on that date, other than Senior Notes or portions of Senior Notes called for
redemption that have been delivered by the Issuers to the Registrar for cancellation. On and after
the redemption date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Senior Notes or portions thereof called
for redemption so long as the Issuers have deposited with the Paying Agent funds sufficient to pay
the principal of, plus accrued and unpaid interest and premiums (if any) on, the Senior Notes to be
redeemed. If any Senior Note called for redemption or purchase is not so paid upon surrender for
redemption or purchase because of the failure of the Issuers to comply with this Section 3.07,
interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption or purchase 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 Senior Notes and in Section 4.01.




          SECTION 3.08. Senior Notes Redeemed in Part. Upon surrender of a Senior Note that is
redeemed in part:




     (a) in the case of a Definitive Security, upon cancellation of the Senior Note
surrendered, the Issuers shall execute and the Trustee or an authentication agent shall
authenticate for the Holder (at the Issuers’ expense) a new Senior Note equal in principal
amount to the unredeemed portion of the Senior Note surrendered in the name of such Holder;
and




     (b) in the case of a Global Security, the Registrar shall make an appropriate notation
on such Senior Note to decrease the principal amount thereof to an amount equal to the
unredeemed portion thereof.



          SECTION 3.09. Special Mandatory Redemption.



          (a) In accordance with the terms and conditions of the Escrow Agreement, if (i) the Graham
Packaging Acquisition Document is terminated or (ii) the Escrow Release Date has not occurred on or
prior to March 20, 2012 (the earlier of the date of such termination and March 20, 2012, the
“Escrow Termination Date”), the Escrow Issuers shall redeem all and not less than all of the Senior
Notes at the Escrow Redemption Price on the third Business Day following the Escrow Termination
Date (such third business day, the “Special Mandatory Redemption Date”), with notice of such
redemption to be provided to Holders as of such Special Mandatory Redemption Date as described in
Section 3.09(b) below; provided, however, that for purposes of this Section 3.09, the Escrow
Issuers shall not be subject to the provisions of Section 3.07 hereof. Such redemption (the
“Special Mandatory Redemption”) shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement.



          (b) Upon the receipt by the Trustee of a written notice of the Special Mandatory Redemption
(the “Special Mandatory Redemption Notice”) pursuant to Section 3(g) of the Escrow Agreement, the
Trustee shall deliver by electronic transmission or first class mail the Special Mandatory
Redemption Notice to each Holder. For Global Senior Securities which are held on behalf of DTC,
the Special Mandatory Redemption Notice may be given to DTC for communication to entitled
accountholders in substitution for the aforesaid notice.



65









 





          (c) Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Senior Notes shall be paid at the Escrow
Redemption Price stated in the Special Mandatory Redemption Notice.



          (d) Failure to redeem the Senior Notes when required pursuant to this Section 3.09 will
constitute an Event of Default with respect to the Senior Notes.



ARTICLE IV




Covenants



          SECTION 4.01. Payment of Senior Notes. The Issuers shall promptly pay the principal
of and interest on the Senior Notes on the dates and in the manner provided in the Senior Notes and
in this Senior Notes Indenture. An installment of principal of or interest shall be considered
paid on the date due if on the Business Day prior to such date the Trustee or the Paying Agent
holds as of 10:00 a.m. New York time money in immediately available funds sufficient to pay such
principal or interest due for payment on the following Business Day, and the Trustee or the Paying
Agent, as the case may be, is not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders on that date
pursuant to the terms of this Senior Notes Indenture.



          The Issuers shall pay interest on overdue principal at the rate specified therefor in the
Senior Notes, and it shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the same rate borne
by the Senior Notes to the extent lawful.

is mentioned, in any context:




     (1) the payment of principal,




     (2) redemption prices or purchase prices in connection with a redemption or
purchase of the Senior Notes,




     (3) interest, or




     (4) any other amount payable on or with respect to any of the Senior Notes or
any Senior Note Guarantee,



          such reference shall be deemed to include payment of Additional Amounts as set forth in
Section 4.15 to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable
in respect thereof.



          SECTION 4.02. Reports and Other Information. (a) Notwithstanding that RGHL or the
Issuers may not be subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act
or otherwise report on an annual and quarterly basis on forms provided for such annual and
quarterly reporting pursuant to rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC, RGHL (and the
Issuers) will file with the SEC (and provide the Trustee and holders of the Senior Notes with
copies thereof, without cost to each holder, within 15 days after it files them with the SEC):



66









 






     (i) within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations, annual reports
on Form 20-F (or any successor or comparable form applicable to RGHL or the Issuers within
the time period for non-accelerated filers to the extent such term is applicable to such
form) containing the information required to be contained therein (or required in such
successor or comparable form); provided, however, that, prior to the filing of the Senior
Notes Exchange Offer Registration Statement or the Senior Notes Shelf Registration
Statement, as the case may be, such report shall not be required to contain any
certification required by any such form or by law;




     (ii) within 60 days after the end of each fiscal quarter, other than the fourth fiscal

successor or comparable form applicable to RGHL or the Issuers));


provided, however, that RGHL (and the Issuers) shall not be so obligated to file such reports with
the SEC if the SEC does not permit such filing, in which event RGHL (or the Issuers) will post the
reports specified in the first sentence of this paragraph on its website within the time periods
that would apply if RGHL were required to file those reports with the SEC. In addition, RGHL will
make available such information to prospective purchasers of Senior Notes, in addition to providing
such information to the Trustee and the holders of the Senior Notes, in each case within 15 days
after the time RGHL would be required to file such information with the SEC if it were subject to
Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, RGHL and the Issuers may
satisfy the foregoing reporting requirements (i) prior to the filing with the SEC of the Senior
Notes Exchange Offer Registration Statement, or if the Senior Notes Exchange Offer Registration
Statement is not filed within the applicable time limits pursuant to the Senior Notes Registration

Exchange Act within 90 days after the end of the applicable fiscal year and (y) substantially the
same information as would be required to be filed with the SEC by RGHL and the Issuers on Form 10-Q

Registration Statement or Senior Notes Shelf Registration Statement, by publicly filing with the
SEC the Senior Notes Exchange Offer Registration Statement or Senior Notes Shelf Registration
Statement, to the extent any such registration statement contains substantially the same
information as would be required to be filed by RGHL and the Issuers if they were subject to the
reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, and by providing the Trustee and
the noteholders with such registration statement (and amendments thereto) promptly following the
filing with the SEC thereof.




          (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.02(a), the annual reports, information,
documents and other reports filed with the SEC will include all of the information, with respect to
the financial condition and results of operations of BP I and BP II on a combined basis separate
from the financial condition and results of operations from RGHL on a consolidated basis, that
RGHL, BP I and BP II are required, as of the Issue Date, to include in information, documents and
other reports made available pursuant to the 2009 Indenture (such information, the “Required

obligations to provide the Required Financial Information shall cease to be in full force and
effect, RGHL, BP I and BP II shall make available to the Trustee and the noteholders information
substantially equivalent to the Required Financial Information as if their obligations to provide
such information under the 2009 Indenture remained in full force and effect.



          (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 4.02(a) and (b), RGHL will be deemed to have

BP I or the Issuers are not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, or otherwise
permitted to furnish the SEC with certain information pursuant to Rule 12g 3-2(b) of the Exchange
Act, each Issuer will make available to the holders of the Senior Notes and to prospective

legally permitted, be subordinated in right of payment to the obligations of the Issuers
under the Senior Notes or the obligations of BP I under its Senior Note Guarantee, as

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Issuers and any Senior Note Guarantors will
Incur any Indebtedness as any Permitted Debt if the proceeds thereof are used, directly or
indirectly, to refinance any Subordinated Indebtedness of such Issuer or any Senior Note
Guarantor unless such Indebtedness shall be subordinated to the Senior Notes or the
applicable Senior Note Guarantee to at least the same extent as such Subordinated
Indebtedness.




     Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Disqualified Subsidiary may not Incur any Indebtedness
or issue any shares of Preferred Stock unless such Indebtedness or Preferred Stock is
Incurred or issued as Permitted Debt pursuant to clause (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (viii),
(ix), (x), (xi), (xii), (xiii), (xvi), (xvii), (xviii), (xix), (xxi), (xxii), (xxiii) or

pursuant to such clauses (xxi) and (xxii) shall not exceed $25.0 million.



          (c) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.03:




     (i) in the event that an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock
(or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of permitted
Indebtedness described in clauses 4.03(b)(i) through (xxvii) or is entitled to be Incurred
pursuant to Section 4.03(a), the Issuers shall, in their sole discretion, classify or
reclassify, or later divide, classify or reclassify, such item of Indebtedness, Disqualified
Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this
Section 4.03; provided, however, that (A) Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement
outstanding on the Issue Date shall be deemed to have been Incurred pursuant to



74









 






Section 4.03(b)(i)(A) and the Issuers shall not be permitted to reclassify all or any portion
of such Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement outstanding on the Issue Date, (B)
Indebtedness Incurred as incremental term loan borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit
Facilities on the Escrow Release Date shall be deemed to have been Incurred pursuant to
Section 4.03(b)(i)(A) and the Issuers shall not be permitted to reclassify all or any
portion of such Indebtedness and (C) the Issuers shall not be permitted to reclassify all or
any portion of any Secured Indebtedness Incurred as Permitted Debt unless at the time of
such reclassification the Issuers could secure such Secured Indebtedness pursuant to clause
(6) of the definition of “Permitted Liens;” and




     (ii) the Issuers will be entitled to divide and classify an item of Indebtedness in
more than one of the types of Indebtedness described in Sections 4.03(a) and (b) above, and
in that connection shall be entitled to treat a portion of such Indebtedness as having been
Incurred under Section 4.03(a) and thereafter the remainder of such Indebtedness having been
Incurred under Section 4.03(b).



          (d) Accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the payment of interest or
dividends in the form of additional Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, as
applicable, accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference and increases in the
amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of
currencies will not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred
Stock for purposes of this Section 4.03. Guarantees of, or obligations in respect of letters of
credit relating to, Indebtedness that is otherwise included in the determination of a particular
amount of Indebtedness shall not be included in the determination of such amount of Indebtedness;
provided that the Incurrence of the Indebtedness represented by such guarantee or letter of credit,
as the case may be, was in compliance with this Section 4.03.



          (e) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.03, (i) the Euro Equivalent of
the principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in another currency shall be calculated based on
the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was Incurred, in the
case of term Indebtedness, or first drawn, in the case of Indebtedness Incurred under a revolving
credit facility; provided that (a) if such Indebtedness is Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness
denominated in a currency other than euro, and such refinancing would cause the applicable
euro-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in
effect on the date of such refinancing, such euro-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to
have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed
the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced; (b) the Euro Equivalent of the
principal amount of any such Indebtedness outstanding on the Issue Date shall be calculated based
on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the Issue Date; and (c) if any such
Indebtedness is subject to a Currency Agreement with respect to the currency in which such
Indebtedness is denominated covering principal, premium, if any, and interest on such Indebtedness,
the amount of such Indebtedness and such interest and premium, if any, shall be determined after
giving effect to all payments in respect thereof under such Currency Agreements and (ii) the US
Dollar Equivalent of the principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in another currency shall be
calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was
Incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first drawn, in the case of Indebtedness Incurred
under a revolving credit facility; provided that



75









 




(a) if such Indebtedness is Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a currency
other than US Dollars, and such refinancing would cause the applicable US Dollar-denominated
restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the
date of such refinancing, such US Dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been
exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the
principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced; (b) the US Dollar Equivalent of the
principal amount of any such Indebtedness outstanding on the Issue Date shall be calculated based
on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the Issue Date; and (c) if any such
Indebtedness is subject to a Currency Agreement with respect to the currency in which such
Indebtedness is denominated covering principal, premium, if any, and interest on such Indebtedness,
the amount of such Indebtedness and such interest and premium, if any, shall be determined after
giving effect to all payments in respect thereof under such Currency Agreements.




          (f) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.03, the maximum amount of
Indebtedness that BP I, BP II and the Restricted Subsidiaries may Incur pursuant to this Section
4.03 shall not be deemed to be exceeded, with respect to any outstanding Indebtedness, solely as a
result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies. The principal amount of any
Indebtedness Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if Incurred in a different currency from the
Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable
to the currencies in which such Refinancing Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the
date of such refinancing.



          (g) For all purposes of this Senior Notes Indenture, (1) unsecured Indebtedness will not be
treated as subordinated or junior to Secured Indebtedness merely because it is unsecured, (2)
Senior Indebtedness will not be treated as subordinated or junior to any other Senior Indebtedness
merely because it has junior priority with respect to the same collateral, (3) Indebtedness of such
Person which is not guaranteed will not be treated as subordinated or junior to Indebtedness that
is guaranteed merely because of such guarantee and (4) Indebtedness under any Secured Indebtedness
will not be deemed to be subordinated because of the application of waterfall or other
payment-ordering or collateral-sharing provisions affecting any such Secured Indebtedness.



          SECTION 4.04. Limitation on Restricted Payments. (a) BP I and BP II will not, and
will not permit any Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly:




     (i) declare or pay any dividend or make any distribution on account of BP I’s, BP II’s
or any Restricted Subsidiaries’ Equity Interests or pay any amounts in respect of
Subordinated Shareholder Funding, including any payment made in connection with any merger,
amalgamation or consolidation involving BP I or BP II (other than (A) dividends or
distributions by BP I or BP II payable solely in Equity Interests (other than Disqualified
Stock) of BP I or BP II or in Subordinated Shareholder Funding of BP I or BP II; (B)
dividends or distributions payable to BP I, BP II or a Restricted Subsidiary or (C) in the
case of any dividend or distribution payable on or in respect of any class or series of
securities issued by a Restricted Subsidiary other than a Wholly Owned Restricted
Subsidiary, such dividends or distributions paid to minority shareholders; provided that BP
I, BP II or a Restricted Subsidiary receives at least its pro rata share of such dividend or
distribution in accordance with its Equity Interests in such class or series of securities



76









 






(except to the extent non-pro rata payments of such dividends or distributions are
required by law or under the terms of any agreement in effect on the Issue Date);




     (ii) purchase or otherwise acquire or retire for value any Equity Interests of BP I, BP
II or any direct or indirect parent of BP I or BP II, in each case held by Persons other
than BP I, BP II or a Restricted Subsidiary;




     (iii) make any principal payment on, or redeem, repurchase, defease or otherwise
acquire or retire for value, in each case prior to any scheduled repayment or scheduled
maturity, any Subordinated Shareholder Funding, any Subordinated Indebtedness (including the
2007 Senior Subordinated Notes) of BP I, BP II, the Issuers or any Senior Note Guarantor
(other than the payment, redemption, repurchase, defeasance, acquisition or retirement of
(A) Subordinated Indebtedness (including the 2007 Senior Subordinated Notes) in anticipation
of satisfying a sinking fund obligation, principal installment or final maturity, in each
case due within one year of the date of such payment, redemption, repurchase, defeasance,
acquisition or retirement and (B) any Subordinated Indebtedness between any of BP I, BP II
and any Restricted Subsidiary or between any of the Restricted Subsidiaries); or




     (iv) make any Restricted Investment,


(all such payments and other actions set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above being collectively
referred to as “Restricted Payments”), unless, at the time of such Restricted Payment:





     (1) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would occur as a
consequence thereof;




     (2) immediately after giving effect to such transaction on a pro forma basis,
BP I or BP II could Incur $1.00 of additional Indebtedness under the provisions of
Section 4.03(a); and




     (3) such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all other
Restricted Payments made by BP I, BP II and the Restricted Subsidiaries after the RP
Reference Date (and not returned or rescinded) (including Restricted Payments
permitted by clauses (i), (iv) (only to the extent of one-half of the amounts paid
pursuant to such clause), (vi) and (viii) of Section 4.04(b), but excluding all

meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.



          SECTION 4.05. Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Subsidiaries. (a)
BP I and BP II will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiaries to,

renewal, increase, supplement, refunding, replacement or refinancing; and




     (15) restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by customers

          SECTION 4.06. Asset Sales. (a) BP I and BP II will not, and will not permit any
Restricted Subsidiaries to, cause or make an Asset Sale, unless (x) BP I, BP II or any Restricted

     (ii) any notes or other obligations or other securities or assets received by BP I, BP
II or such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by BP I, BP II or

          (b) Within 12 months after BP I, BP II or any Restricted Subsidiary’s receipt of the Net
Proceeds of any Asset Sale, BP I, BP II or such Restricted Subsidiary may apply the Net Proceeds
from such Asset Sale, at its option:



85









 






     (i) to repay (A) Obligations constituting Secured Indebtedness (and, if such
Indebtedness repaid is under a revolving credit facility, to correspondingly reduce
commitments with respect thereto), (B) Obligations constituting Senior Indebtedness (other
than Secured Indebtedness) (and, if such Indebtedness repaid is under a revolving credit

that if any such Senior Indebtedness described in this clause (B) other than the Senior
Notes are repaid with the Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale, the Issuers will equally and
ratably reduce Obligations under the Senior Notes through open-market purchases (provided
that such purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof) or by making an
offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for an Asset Sale Offer) to all
holders to purchase at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus
accrued and unpaid interest and additional interest, if any, the pro rata principal amount
of Senior Notes or (C) Obligations constituting Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary of
BP I that is not an Issuer or a Senior Note Guarantor, in the case of each of clauses (A),
(B) and (C), other than Indebtedness owed to RGHL or its Affiliates;




     (ii) to make an investment in any one or more businesses (provided that if such
investment is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock of a Person, such acquisition
results in such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of BP I if it is not already a
Restricted Subsidiary of BP I), assets, or property or capital expenditures (including
refurbishments), in each case used or useful in a Similar Business; or




     (iii) to make an investment in any one or more businesses (provided that if such
investment is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock of a Person, such acquisition
results in such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of BP I), properties or assets that
replace the properties and assets that are the subject of such Asset Sale.



     In the case of Sections 4.06(b)(ii) and (iii), a binding commitment shall be treated as a
permitted application of the Net Proceeds from the date of such commitment; provided that in the
event such binding commitment is later canceled or terminated for any reason before such Net
Proceeds are so applied, BP I, BP II or such Restricted Subsidiary enters into another binding
commitment (a “Second Commitment”) within nine months of such cancellation or termination of the
prior binding commitment; provided, further, that BP I, BP II or such Restricted Subsidiary may
only enter into a Second Commitment under the foregoing provision one time with respect to each
Asset Sale.



     Pending the final application of any such Net Proceeds, BP I, BP II or such Restricted
Subsidiary may temporarily reduce Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility, if any, or
otherwise invest such Net Proceeds in any manner not prohibited by this Senior Notes Indenture.
Any Net Proceeds from any Asset Sale that are not applied as provided and within the time period
set forth in the immediately two preceding paragraphs (it being understood that any portion of such
Net Proceeds used to make an offer to purchase Senior Notes, as described in clause (i) of this
Section 4.06(b), shall be deemed to have been invested whether or not such offer is accepted) will
be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds”. When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds
€20.0 million, the Issuers shall make an offer to all holders of Senior Notes (and, at the option
of the Issuers, to holders of any Senior Indebtedness of an Issuer or



86









 




Senior Note Guarantor or any other Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary of BP I that is not
an Obligor) (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to purchase on a pro rata basis the maximum principal amount of
Senior Notes (and such Senior Indebtedness and other Indebtedness), that is at least $100,000 and
an integral multiple of $1,000 that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price
in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof (or, in the event such Senior
Indebtedness or other Indebtedness was issued with significant original issue discount, 100% of the
accreted value thereof), plus accrued and unpaid interest and additional interest, if any (or, in
respect of such Senior Indebtedness or other Indebtedness, such lesser price, if any, as may be
provided for by the terms of such Senior Indebtedness or other Indebtedness), to the date fixed for
the closing of such offer, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Senior Notes
Indenture. The Issuers will commence an Asset Sale Offer with respect to Excess Proceeds within
ten (10) Business Days after the date that Excess Proceeds exceed €20.0 million by mailing (or
otherwise delivering in accordance with applicable DTC procedures) the notice required pursuant to
the terms of this Senior Notes Indenture, with a copy to the Trustee. To the extent that the
aggregate amount of Senior Notes (and such Senior Indebtedness or other Indebtedness) tendered
pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, BP I, BP II or such Restricted
Subsidiary may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for general corporate purposes. If the aggregate
principal amount of Senior Notes (and such Senior Indebtedness or other Indebtedness) surrendered
by holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Senior Notes
to be purchased in the manner described below. Upon completion of any such Asset Sale Offer, the
amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. An Asset Sale Offer need not be made by the
Issuers until the date that is 12 months after the date on which an Asset Sale is made, the
proceeds of which, in aggregate with all funds not applied in accordance with this Section 4.06 or
the subject of an Asset Sale Offer, exceed €20.0 million.




          (c) The Issuers will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and
any other securities laws and regulations to the extent such laws or regulations are applicable in
connection with the repurchase of the Senior Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent
that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this
Senior Notes Indenture, the Issuers will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations
and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations described in this Senior Notes Indenture
by virtue thereof.



          (d) If more Senior Notes (and such Senior Indebtedness or other Indebtedness) are tendered
pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer than the Issuers are required to purchase, selection of such Senior
Notes for purchase will be made by the Trustee on a pro rata basis, to the extent practicable and
in compliance with the requirements of DTC and any stock exchange on which the Senior Notes are
then admitted to trading; provided that no Senior Notes of $100,000 or less shall be purchased in
part. Selection of such Senior Indebtedness or other Indebtedness will be made pursuant to the
terms of such Senior Indebtedness or other Indebtedness.



          (e) An Asset Sale Offer insofar as it relates to the Senior Notes, will remain open for a
period of not less than 20 Business Days following its commencement (the “Offer Period”). No later
than five Business Days after the termination of the applicable Offer Period the Issuers will
purchase the principal amount of the Senior Notes (and purchase or repay any relevant Senior



87









 




Indebtedness or other Indebtedness required to be so purchased or repaid as set out above)
validly tendered.

plus accrued and unpaid interest and additional interest and premiums, if any, to the date of
repurchase (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive
interest due on the relevant interest payment date), except to the extent the Issuers have
previously elected to redeem all of the Senior Notes as described under Article III of this Senior
Notes Indenture. In the event that at the time of such Change of Control the terms of any Bank
Indebtedness restrict or prohibit the repurchase of Senior Notes pursuant to this Section 4.08,

91









 





          (b) The Issuers’ failure to comply with such provisions or the provisions of the

have exercised their right to redeem the Senior Notes by delivery of a notice of redemption in
accordance with Article III or all conditions to such redemption have been satisfied or waived, the
Issuers shall mail (or otherwise deliver in accordance with applicable DTC procedures) a notice (a
“Change of Control Offer”) to each holder with a copy to the Trustee stating:




     (i) that a Change of Control has occurred and that such holder has the right to require
the Issuers to repurchase such holder’s Senior Notes at a repurchase price in cash equal to
101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and additional
interest, if any, to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of holders of record on a
record date to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date) (the “Change of
Control Payment”);




     (ii) the circumstances and relevant facts and financial information regarding such
Change of Control;




     (iii) the repurchase date (which shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60
days from the date such notice is mailed or delivered) (the “Change of Control Payment
Date”);




     (iv) the instructions determined by the Issuers, consistent with this Section 4.08,

          (d) Holders electing to have a Senior Note purchased shall be required to surrender the
Senior Note, with an appropriate form duly completed, to the Issuers, at the address specified in
the notice at least three Business Days prior to the purchase date. The Holders shall be entitled
to withdraw their election if the Trustee or the Issuers receive not later than one Business Day
prior to the purchase date a facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder,
the principal amount of the Senior Note which was delivered for purchase by the Holder and a
statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Senior Note purchased.



          (e) A Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, and conditioned
upon such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the
time of making of the Change of Control Offer.



          (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.08, the Issuers will not be
required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if a third party makes the
Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the
requirements set forth in this Senior Notes Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer



92









 




made by the Issuers and purchases all Senior Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under
such Change of Control Offer.




          (g) On the Change of Control Payment Date, if the Change of Control shall have occurred, the
Issuers will, to the extent lawful:




     (i) accept for payment all Senior Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of
Control Offer;




     (ii) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in
respect of all Senior Notes so tendered;




     (iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating

Issuers; and




     (v) in the case of Definitive Securities, deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the
relevant Registrar for cancellation all Definitive Securities accepted for purchase by the
Issuers.



          (h) The Paying Agent will promptly mail (or otherwise deliver in accordance with applicable
DTC procedures) to each holder of Senior Notes so tendered the Change of Control Payment for such
Senior Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by
book entry) to each holder of Senior Notes a new Senior Note equal in principal amount to the
unpurchased portion of the Senior Notes surrendered, if any; provided, however, that each such new
Senior Note will be in a principal amount that is at least $100,000 and integral multiples of
$1,000 in excess thereof.



          (i) [Reserved.]



          (j) Senior Notes repurchased by the Issuers or an Affiliate pursuant to a Change of Control
Offer will have the status of Senior Notes issued but not outstanding or will be retired and
canceled at the option of the Issuers. Senior Notes purchased by an unaffiliated third party
pursuant to Section 4.08(h) will have the status of Senior Notes issued and outstanding.



          (k) The Issuers will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Section 14(e)
of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase
of Senior Notes pursuant to this Section 4.08. To the extent that the provisions of any securities
laws or regulations conflict with provisions of this Section 4.08, the Issuers will comply with the
applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations
under this Section 4.08 by virtue thereof.



93









 





          (l) The Issuers’ obligation under this Section 4.08 to make an offer to repurchase the Senior
Notes as a result of a Change of Control may be waived or modified with the written consent of the
holders of a majority in principal amount of outstanding Senior Notes.

Certificate stating that in the course of the performance by the signers of their duties as
Officers of an Issuer, BP I or BP II, as applicable, they would normally have knowledge of any
Default and whether or not the signers know of any Default that occurred during such period. If
they do, the certificate shall describe the Default, its status and what action the applicable
entity is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.



          SECTION 4.10. Further Instruments and Acts. The Issuers, BP I or BP II shall execute
and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or
proper to carry out more effectively the purpose of this Senior Notes Indenture (including upon
request of the Trustee but without affirmative duty to do so).



          SECTION 4.11. Future Senior Note Guarantors. (a) After the Escrow Release Date,
each Restricted Subsidiary (unless such Subsidiary is an Issuer, a Senior Note Guarantor or a
Receivables Subsidiary) that guarantees, assumes or in any other manner becomes liable with respect
to (x) any Indebtedness under any Credit Agreement or (y) any Public Debt (including any proceeds
loans or other intercompany loans in respect thereof) of BP I, BP II, an Issuer or any Senior Note
Guarantor, in each case, will execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture pursuant
to which such Restricted Subsidiary will guarantee payment of the Senior Notes; provided that
notwithstanding the foregoing:




     (i) each Restricted Subsidiary incorporated or otherwise organized under the laws of
Austria shall only be required to enter into its respective Senior Note Guarantee within 135
days following the Escrow Release Date (or on such later date as may be permitted by the
Applicable Representative in its sole discretion);




     (ii) [reserved];




     (iii) [reserved];




     (iv) with respect to any Restricted Subsidiary not referred to in clause (i) above, to
the extent the foregoing obligation is triggered by Indebtedness or Public Debt existing as
of the Escrow Release Date, the relevant Restricted Subsidiary shall only be required to
enter into its respective Senior Note Guarantee as soon as reasonably practicable following
the Escrow Release Date;




     (v) no Senior Note Guarantee shall be required as a result of any Indebtedness or
guarantee of Indebtedness that existed at the time such Person became a Restricted
Subsidiary if the Indebtedness or guarantee was not Incurred in connection with, or in
contemplation of, such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary;




     (vi) [reserved];



94









 






     (vii) if such Indebtedness is by its terms expressly subordinated to the Senior Notes
or any Senior Note Guarantee, any such assumption, guarantee or other liability of such
Restricted Subsidiary with respect to such Indebtedness shall be subordinated to such
Restricted Subsidiary’s Senior Note Guarantee of the Senior Notes at least to the same
extent as such Indebtedness is subordinated to the Senior Notes or any other senior
guarantee;




     (viii) no Senior Note Guarantee shall be required as a result of any guarantee given to
a bank or trust company incorporated in any member state of the European Union as of the
date of this Senior Notes Indenture or any commercial banking institution that is a member
of the US Federal Reserve System (or any branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof), in each
case having combined capital and surplus and undivided profits of not less than $500.0
million, whose debt has a rating, at the time such guarantee was given, of at least A or the
equivalent thereof by S&P and at least A2 or the equivalent thereof by Moody’s, in
connection with the operation of cash management programs established for BP I’s and BP II’s
benefit or that of any Restricted Subsidiary;




     (ix) [reserved];




     (x) no Senior Note Guarantee shall be required from a US Controlled Foreign Subsidiary
or a Financial Assistance Restricted Subsidiary;




     (xi) no Senior Note Guarantee shall be required if such Senior Note Guarantee could
reasonably be expected to give rise to or result in (x) personal liability for, or material
risk of personal liability for, the officers, directors or shareholders of BP I, BP II, any
parent of BP I or BP II or any Restricted Subsidiary, (y) any violation of, or material risk
of violation of, applicable law that cannot be avoided or otherwise prevented through
measures reasonably available to BP I, BP II or any such Restricted Subsidiary, including,
for the avoidance of doubt, “whitewash” or similar procedures or (z) any significant cost,
expense, liability or obligation (including with respect of any Taxes) other than reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses and other than reasonable expenses Incurred in connection with any
governmental or regulatory filings required as a result of, or any measures pursuant to
clause (y) undertaken in connection with, such Senior Note Guarantee, which cannot be
avoided through measures reasonably available to BP I, BP II or any such Restricted
Subsidiary; and




     (xii) each such Senior Note Guarantee will be limited as necessary to recognize certain
defenses generally available to guarantors (including those that relate to fraudulent
conveyance or transfer, voidable preference, financial assistance, corporate purpose,
capital maintenance or similar laws, regulations or defenses affecting the rights of
creditors generally) or other considerations under applicable law.



          (b) The Senior Note Guarantees shall be released in accordance with the provisions of Section
10.06.



          SECTION 4.12. Liens. (a) BP I and BP II will not, and will not permit any
Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, Incur or suffer to exist any Lien on
any



95









 




asset or property of BP I, BP II or such Restricted Subsidiary (including Capital Stock or
Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary), whether owned on the Issue Date or acquired thereafter,
or any interest therein or any income, profits or proceeds therefrom securing any Indebtedness (an
“Initial Lien”), except Permitted Liens; provided, however, that any Lien on such property or
assets will be permitted notwithstanding that it is not a Permitted Lien if the Senior Notes and
Senior Note Guarantees are equally and ratably secured with (or on a senior basis to, in the case
of obligations subordinated in right of payment to the Senior Notes or the Senior Note Guarantees),
the obligations so secured until such time as such obligations are no longer secured by a Lien.




          (b) Any Lien created for the benefit of the holders pursuant to this Section 4.12 will
provide by its terms that such Lien will be automatically and unconditionally released and
discharged (a) upon the release and discharge of the Initial Lien, (b) upon the sale or other
disposition of the assets subject to such Initial Lien (or the sale or other disposition of the
Person that owns such assets) in compliance with the terms of this Senior Notes Indenture, (c) upon
the designation of a Restricted Subsidiary whose property or assets secure such Initial Lien as an
Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of this Senior Notes Indenture, (d) following
an Event of Default under this Senior Notes Indenture or an event of default under any other
Indebtedness secured by the collateral securing such Indebtedness, pursuant to an enforcement
action, if required, in accordance with the terms of any applicable intercreditor agreement or (e)
upon the effectiveness of any defeasance or satisfaction and discharge of the Senior Notes as
specified in this Senior Notes Indenture.



          SECTION 4.13. Foreign Subsidiaries. (a) Notwithstanding anything contained in this
Senior Notes Indenture to the contrary, neither of the US Issuers will, directly or indirectly, own
or acquire any Equity Interests in a US Controlled Foreign Subsidiary.



          (b) No Foreign Subsidiary of RGHL shall also be a Subsidiary of a Domestic Subsidiary of RGHL
unless such Domestic Subsidiary is a disregarded entity for US tax purposes; provided, however,
that such limitation shall not apply to (x) any Foreign Subsidiary of RGHL that is a Subsidiary of
SIG Combibloc Inc., Closure Systems International Inc., Closure Systems Mexico Holdings LLC, CSI
Mexico LLC, Pactiv or Pactiv International Holdings, Inc. as of the Issue Date, (y) any Foreign
Subsidiary of a Domestic Subsidiary at the time such Domestic Subsidiary becomes a Subsidiary of
RGHL (provided, however, that such Foreign Subsidiary did not become a Subsidiary of such Domestic
Subsidiary in connection with, or in contemplation of, such Domestic Subsidiary becoming a
Subsidiary of RGHL) or (z) any Foreign Subsidiary that is not a US Controlled Foreign Subsidiary.



          SECTION 4.14. Maintenance of Office or Agency. (a) The Issuers, BP I and BP II
shall maintain one or more offices or agencies (which may be an office of the Trustee or an
affiliate of the Trustee or Registrar) where Senior Notes may be surrendered for registration of
transfer or for exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuers in respect of the
Senior Notes and this Senior Notes Indenture may be served. The Issuers shall give prompt written
notice to the Trustee and the Principal Paying Agent of the location, and any change in the
location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Issuers shall fail to maintain any such
required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee and the Principal Paying Agent with



96









 




the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served
at the corporate trust office of the Trustee as set forth in Section 13.02.




          (b) The Issuers may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies
where the Senior Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from
time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission
shall in any manner relieve the Issuers of their obligation to maintain an office or agency for
such purposes. The Issuers shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee and the Principal
Paying Agent of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such
other office or agency.



          (c) The Issuers hereby designate the corporate trust office of the Trustee or its Agent as
such office or agency of the Issuers in accordance with Section 2.04.



          SECTION 4.15. Withholding Taxes. (a) All payments made by any Issuer or any Senior
Note Guarantor or any successor in interest to any of the foregoing (each, a “Payor”) on or with
respect to the Senior Notes or any Senior Note Guarantee will be made without withholding or
deduction for, or on account of, any Taxes unless such withholding or deduction is required by law;
provided, however that a Payor, in any case, may withhold from any interest payment made on the
Senior Notes to or for the benefit of any person who is not a “United States person,” as such term
is defined for U.S. federal income tax purposes, U.S. federal withholding tax, and pay such
withheld amounts to the Internal Revenue Service, unless such person provides documentation to such
Payor such that an exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax would apply to such payment if
interest on the Senior Notes were treated as income from sources within the U.S. for U.S. federal
income tax purposes. If any deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any Taxes imposed or
levied by or on behalf of:




     (i) any jurisdiction (other than the United States or any political subdivision or
governmental authority thereof or therein having power to tax) from or through which payment
on the Senior Notes or any Senior Note Guarantee is made by such Payor, or any political
subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein having the power to tax; or




     (ii) any other jurisdiction (other than the United States or any political subdivision
or governmental authority thereof or therein having the power to tax) in which a Payor that
actually makes a payment on the Senior Notes or its Senior Note Guarantee is organized or
otherwise considered to be a resident for tax purposes, or any political subdivision or
governmental authority thereof or therein having the power to tax,



          (each of clause (i) and (ii) of this Section 4.15(a), a “Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction”), will
at any time be required from any payments made with respect to the Senior Notes or any Senior Note
Guarantee, including payments of principal, redemption price, interest or premium, if any, the
Payor will pay (together with such payments) such additional amounts (the “Additional Amounts”) as
may be necessary in order that the net amounts received in respect of such payments by the
noteholders or the Trustee, as the case may be, after such withholding or deduction (including any
such deduction or withholding from such Additional Amounts), will not be less than the amounts that
would have been received in respect of such payments on the



97









 




Senior Notes or the Senior Note Guarantees in the absence of such withholding or deduction;
provided, however, that no such Additional Amounts will be payable for or on account of:





     (1) any Taxes that would not have been so imposed or levied but for the
existence of any present or former connection between the relevant noteholder (or
between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder of, or possessor of
power over the relevant noteholder, if such noteholder is an estate, nominee, trust,
partnership, limited liability company or corporation) and the Relevant Taxing
Jurisdiction (including being a citizen or resident or national of, or carrying on a
business or maintaining a permanent establishment in, or being physically present
in, the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction) but excluding, in each case, any connection
arising solely from the acquisition, ownership or holding of such Senior Note or the
receipt of any payment in respect thereof;




     (2) any Taxes that would not have been so imposed or levied if the holder of
the Senior Note had complied with a reasonable request in writing of the Payor (such
request being made at a time that would enable such holder acting reasonably to
comply with that request) to make a declaration of nonresidence or any other claim
or filing or satisfy any certification, information or reporting requirement for
exemption from, or reduction in the rate of, withholding to which it is entitled
(provided that such declaration of nonresidence or other claim, filing or
requirement is required by the applicable law, treaty, regulation or administrative
practice of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction as a precondition to exemption from the
requirement to deduct or withhold all or a part of any such Taxes);




     (3) any Taxes that are payable otherwise than by withholding from a payment of
the principal of, premium, if any, or interest under the Senior Notes or any Senior
Note Guarantee;




     (4) any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, excise, transfer, personal property
or similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge;




     (5) any Taxes that are required to be deducted or withheld on a payment
pursuant to the Directive or any law implementing, or introduced in order to conform
to, the Directive;




     (6) except in the case of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the
Payor, any Taxes imposed in connection with a Senior Note presented for payment by
or on behalf of a noteholder or beneficial owner who would have been able to avoid
such Tax by presenting the relevant Senior Note to, or otherwise accepting payment
from, another paying agent in a member state of the European Union; or




     (7) any combination of the above.



     Such Additional Amounts will also not be payable (x) if the payment could have been made
without such deduction or withholding if the beneficiary of the payment had presented the



98









 




Senior Note for payment (where presentation is required) within 30 days after the relevant
payment was first made available for payment to the noteholder or (y) where, had the beneficial
owner of the Senior Note been the holder of the Senior Note, such beneficial owner would not have
been entitled to payment of Additional Amounts by reason of any of clauses (1) to (7) inclusive
above.




          (b) The Payor will (i) make any required withholding or deduction and (ii) remit the full
amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing authority of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction in
accordance with applicable law. Upon request, the Payor will use all reasonable efforts to obtain
certified copies of tax receipts evidencing the payment of any Taxes so deducted or withheld from
each relevant taxing authority of each Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction imposing such Taxes and will
provide such certified copies to the Trustee. If, notwithstanding the efforts of such Payor to
obtain such receipts, the same are not obtainable, such Payor will provide the Trustee with other
evidence reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Holder.



          (c) If any Payor will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts under or with respect to any
payment made on the Senior Notes, at least 30 days prior to the date of such payment, the Payor
will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating the fact that Additional Amounts will
be payable and the amount so payable and such other information necessary to enable the Paying
Agent to pay Additional Amounts to noteholders on the relevant payment date (unless such obligation
to pay Additional Amounts arises less than 45 days prior to the relevant payment date, in which
case the Payor shall deliver such Officers’ Certificate and such other information as promptly as
practicable after the date that is 30 days prior to the payment date, but no less than five (5)
Business Days prior thereto, and otherwise in accordance with the requirements of DTC).



          (d) Wherever in this Senior Notes Indenture, the Senior Notes or any Senior Note Guarantee
there is mentioned, in any context: (i) the payment of principal, (ii) redemption prices or
purchase prices in connection with a redemption or purchase of Senior Notes, (iii) interest or (iv)
any other amount payable on or with respect to any of the Senior Notes or any Senior Note
Guarantee, such reference shall be deemed to include payment of Additional Amounts as described
under this Section 4.15 to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would
be payable in respect thereof.



          (e) The Payor will pay any present or future stamp, court or documentary Taxes, or any other
excise, property or similar Taxes, charges or levies that arise in any jurisdiction from the
execution, delivery, registration or enforcement of any Senior Notes, this Senior Notes Indenture,
or any other document or instrument in relation thereto (other than a transfer of the Senior Notes)
excluding any such Taxes, charges or similar levies imposed by any jurisdiction that is not a
Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, and the Payor agrees to indemnify the noteholders and the Trustee for
any such Taxes paid by such noteholders. The foregoing obligations will survive any termination,
defeasance or discharge of this Senior Notes Indenture and will apply mutatis mutandis to any
jurisdiction in which any successor to a Payor is organized or otherwise considered to be a
resident for Tax purposes or any political subdivision or taxing authority or agency thereof or
therein.



          SECTION 4.16. [Reserved.]



99









 





          SECTION 4.17. [Reserved.]



          SECTION 4.18. Amendment of 2007 Senior Subordinated Notes. Except with the consent
of the Holders of a majority in outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes, BP II
and the Obligors will not amend the 2007 Senior Subordinated Note Indenture or the notes and
guarantees in respect of the foregoing if such amendment would result in any of the following:




     (a) the principal obligor in respect of the 2007 Senior Subordinated Notes not being
either RGHL or BP II;




     (b) (i) except as may be otherwise permitted under Section 4.11, any Restricted
Subsidiary other than a Senior Note Guarantor or an Issuer guaranteeing the 2007 Senior
Subordinated Notes; or




     (c) the terms of the 2007 Senior Subordinated Notes relating to subordination being
materially less favorable overall to the Holders.



          SECTION 4.19. Suspension/Fall-Away of Covenants on Achievement of Investment Grade
Status. (a) If, on any date following the Escrow Release Date, (i) the Senior Notes have
Investment Grade Ratings from both Rating Agencies, and the Issuers have delivered written notice
of such Investment Grade Ratings to the Trustee, and (ii) no Default has occurred and is continuing
under this Senior Notes Indenture, then, beginning on that day, BP I, BP II and the Restricted
Subsidiaries will not be subject to Sections 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.11 and Section
5.01(a)(iv) of this Senior Notes Indenture (the “Suspended Covenants”).



          (b) In the event that BP I, BP II and the Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to the
Suspended Covenants under this Senior Notes Indenture for any period of time as a result of the
foregoing, and on any subsequent date one or both of the Rating Agencies (a) withdraw their
Investment Grade Rating or downgrade the rating assigned to the Senior Notes below an Investment
Grade Rating or (b) BP I, BP II or any of their Affiliates enters into an agreement to effect a
transaction that would result in a breach of a Suspended Covenant if not so suspended and one or
more of the Rating Agencies indicate that if consummated, such transaction (alone or together with
any related recapitalization or refinancing transactions) would cause such Rating Agency to
withdraw its Investment Grade Rating or downgrade the ratings assigned to the Senior Notes below an
Investment Grade Rating, then BP I, BP II and the Restricted Subsidiaries will thereafter again be
subject to the Suspended Covenants under this Senior Notes Indenture. Such covenants will not,
however, be of any effect with regard to the actions of BP I, BP II and the Restricted Subsidiaries
properly taken during the continuance of the covenant suspension and Section 4.04 shall be
interpreted as if it had been in effect since the Reference Date except that no Default will be
deemed to have occurred and will not occur solely by reason of a Restricted Payment made during the
covenant suspension.



          (c) During the continuance of the covenant suspension, no Restricted Subsidiary may be
designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary.



          SECTION 4.20. Fiscal Year. Each Issuer at all times will have the same fiscal year
as BP I, BP II and RGHL.



100









 





          SECTION 4.21. Certain Country Limitations. (a) Within 90 days after the Escrow
Release Date (or on such later date as may be permitted by the Applicable Representative in its
sole discretion) SIG Combibloc Ltd. (Thailand) (the “Thai Guarantor”) shall apply to the Bank of
Thailand for, and use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, in-principle approval for the
remittance of any foreign currency sum pursuant to the Thai Guarantor’s obligation to make any
payment under its guarantee of the Senior Notes (the “Thai Senior Note Guarantee”).



          In respect of any in-principle approval of the Bank of Thailand granted to the Thai Guarantor,
the Thai Guarantor agrees to: (i) when it is required to remit the foreign currency sum pursuant to
its obligation of payment under the Thai Senior Note Guarantee, comply with the Bank of Thailand’s
requirements set out in such in-principle approval for obtaining the final approval of the Bank of
Thailand for the remittance of such sum (to the full amount of its guarantee obligations), within
the time limits specified by the Bank of Thailand (if any); (ii) if such in-principle approval has
an expiry date, apply for the renewal or extension of such approval prior to the expiry date of
such approval, so long as any of the obligations under the Thai Senior Note Guarantee are
outstanding; and (iii) comply with the conditions set out in the final approval (if any) to allow
the Thai Guarantor to remit the approved foreign currency sum (to the fullest extent) for the
payment under the Thai Senior Note Guarantee.



          (b) The Issuers will use the proceeds of the Senior Notes only for the purposes specified in
the section of the Offering Circular entitled “Use of Proceeds”. The Senior Notes have not and
shall not be used with a view to (a) the subscription or acquisition of any shares in the share
capital or depositary receipts thereof in a company organized in The Netherlands or (b) repay any
Indebtedness which was used for the purposes of acquiring shares in the share capital or depositary
receipts thereof in The Netherlands.

and each Issuer that is party to a Domination Agreement shall (A) to the extent not prohibited by
applicable law, comply with such Domination Agreement and do all that is necessary to maintain the
Domination Agreements in full force and effect; provided that (1) with respect to any Domination
Agreements other than any Domination Agreements with SIG Euro Holding AG & Co KGaA as dominated
entity (beherrschtes Unternehmen), such Domination Agreement may be terminated (x) in connection
with a transaction permitted by Section 5.01 hereof involving a Senior Note Guarantor organized in
Germany as dominated entity (beherrschtes Unternehmen) under a Domination Agreement that leads to
such Senior Note Guarantor ceasing to be a Senior Note Guarantor, or (y) if a replacement
domination agreement reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (under and as defined in the
Senior Secured Credit Facilities) will be executed and filed for registration concurrently with the
termination thereof or (z) as otherwise permitted by the Trustee, and (2) with respect to any
Domination Agreement with SIG Euro Holding AG & Co KGaA as dominated entity (beherrschtes
Unternehmen), such Domination Agreement may be terminated (x) to the extent SIG Euro Holding AG &
Co KGaA has changed its corporate legal form into that of a German limited liability company
(Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung) or limited partnership pursuant (Kommanditgesellschaft), if
a replacement domination agreement reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (under and as
defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facilities) will be executed and filed for registration
concurrently with the termination thereof provided, or (y) as

otherwise permitted by the Administrative Agent (under and as defined in the Senior Secured
Credit Facilities); and (B) provide the Administrative Agent (under and as defined in the Senior
Secured Credit Facilities) with at least ten days, but in the case of any Domination Agreement with
SIG Euro Holding AG & Co KGaA as dominated entity (beherrschtes Unternehmen) at least six weeks,

Agreement with SIG Euro Holding AG & Co KGaA as dominated entity (beherrschtes Unternehmen),
except as otherwise provided by Section 5.17(a) of the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, and
none of the Issuers or the Senior Note Guarantors shall take any action that would cause the
Administrative Agent (under and as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facilities) to
receive notice from any party to such Domination Agreement of its intention to terminate,
except as permitted by Section 5.17(a) of the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, such
Domination Agreement;




     (iii) No Senior Note Guarantor incorporated in Germany, shall become unable to pay its
debts as they fall due (Zahlungsunfähigkeit) or be deemed to be unable to pay its debts as
they fall due (drohende Zahlungsunfähigkeit) or be over-indebted (Überschuldung) within the
meaning of Sections 17 — 19 of the German Insolvency Code (Insolvenzordnung).



          SECTION 4.22. Escrow Account Deposits. In accordance with the terms of the Escrow
Agreement, on the date hereof, (i) the Initial Purchasers will deposit the gross proceeds received
by the Initial Purchasers from the offer and sale of the Original Senior Notes into several Escrow
Accounts pursuant to the Escrow Agreement and (ii) the Escrow Issuers will deposit pursuant to the

Assumption, each Escrow Issuer shall not engage in any business activity or undertake any other

for purposes of paying any Special Mandatory Redemption) other than the Senior Notes and the Senior
Secured Notes, or own, hold or otherwise have any interest in any assets other than the Escrow
Accounts and cash and investments described in Section 4.23(b) below.




          (b) The Escrow Issuers may direct the investment (including duration of the investment) by

prior to the release of Escrow Funds pursuant to Section 6(a) of the Escrow Agreement, the US
Issuer I, the US Issuer II, the Luxembourg Issuer and the Senior Note Guarantors shall execute the

          (b) On and following the Escrow Release Date, all restrictive covenants, other than Sections

applicable, as if in effect since the Issue Date and, to the extent that the US Issuer I, the US

matters of fact.



          The Successor Company (if other than BP I, BP II, the US Issuer I, the US Issuer II or the

Guarantor) will succeed to, and be substituted for, such Senior Note Guarantor under this Senior
Notes Indenture and such Senior Note Guarantor’s Senior Note Guarantee, and such Senior Note
Guarantor will automatically be released and discharged from its obligations under this Senior

Note Guarantee of one or more Senior Note Guarantors that collectively would represent a
Significant Subsidiary) ceases to be in full force and effect (except as contemplated by the
terms thereof or the terms of this Senior Notes Indenture) or BP I, BP II or any Senior Note
Guarantor that qualifies as a Significant Subsidiary (or one or more Senior Note Guarantors
that collectively would represent a Significant Subsidiary) denies or disaffirms its
obligations under this Senior Notes Indenture or any Senior Note Guarantee and such Default
continues for 20 days.



          The foregoing shall constitute Events of Default whatever the reason for any such Event of
Default and whether it is voluntary or involuntary or is effected by operation of law or pursuant
to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any
administrative or governmental body.



          The term “Bankruptcy Law” means any applicable Luxembourg law relating to bankruptcy,
insolvency, administration, examination, court protection, receivership, schemes of arrangement or
similar matters, Title 11, United States Code, or any similar Federal, state or non-U.S.
bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law for the relief of debtors. The term
“Custodian” means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator, custodian or similar official under
any Bankruptcy Law.



          A Default under clause (d) of this Section 6.01 (other than a failure to purchase Senior
Notes) shall not constitute an Event of Default until the Trustee or the holders of 25% in
principal amount of outstanding Senior Notes of such series notify the Issuers of the default and
the Issuers do not cure or cause the cure of such default within the time specified in clause (d)
hereof, after receipt of such notice. Such notice must specify the Default, demand that it be
remedied and state that such notice is a “Notice of Default”.



          An Issuer or BP I, as applicable, shall deliver to the Trustee (i) as soon as it becomes aware
of the occurrence of an Event of Default, written notice of the occurrence of such Event of Default
and (ii) within 30 days after the occurrence thereof, written notice of any event which would
constitute a Default under clause (c), (d), (e), (f) or (g) of Section 6.01, its status



108









 




and what action BP I, BP II or any Issuer, as applicable, is taking or proposes to take in
respect thereof.




          SECTION 6.02. Acceleration. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default
specified in (x) Section 6.01(f) or (g) with respect to BP I, BP II, an Issuer or any Restricted
Subsidiary that, directly or indirectly, owns or holds any Equity Interest of an Issuer or (y)
Section 6.01(c) with respect to BP I’s, BP II’s or any Restricted Subsidiary’s failure to comply
with its obligations under Section 4.13(a)) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the holders of
at least 25% in principal amount of outstanding Senior Notes by notice to the Trustee and the
Issuers may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued but unpaid interest (including
additional interest, if any) on all the Senior Notes to be due and payable. Upon such a
declaration, such principal and interest will be due and payable immediately. If an Event of
Default specified in (i) Section 6.01(f) or (g) with respect to BP I, BP II, an Issuer or any
Restricted Subsidiary that, directly or indirectly, owns or holds any Equity Interest of an Issuer
or (ii) Section 6.01(c) with respect to BP I’s, BP II’s or any Restricted Subsidiary’s failure to
comply with its obligations under Sections 4.13(a) occurs, the principal of, premium, if any, and
interest on all the Senior Notes will become immediately due and payable without any declaration or
other act on the part of the Trustee or any holders. The Holders of a majority in principal amount
of the Senior Notes by notice to the Trustee may rescind an acceleration and its consequences if
the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default
have been cured or waived except nonpayment of principal or interest that has become due solely
because of acceleration. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any
right consequent thereto.



          In the event of any Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(e), such Event of Default and
all consequences thereof (excluding, however, any resulting payment default) will be annulled,
waived and rescinded, automatically and without any action by the Trustee or the holders of the
Senior Notes, if within 20 days after such Event of Default arose the Issuers deliver an Officers’
Certificate to the Trustee stating that (x) the Indebtedness or guarantee that is the basis for
such Event of Default has been discharged or (y) the holders thereof have rescinded or waived the
acceleration, notice or action (as the case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default or (z) the
default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured, it being understood that in no
event shall an acceleration of the principal amount of the Senior Notes as described above be
annulled, waived or rescinded upon the happening of any such events.



          SECTION 6.03. Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the
Trustee may pursue any available remedy at law or in equity to collect the payment of principal of
or interest on the Senior Notes (including the delivery of a Senior Notes Control Notice (as such
term is defined under the Escrow Agreement) pursuant to the Escrow Agreement with respect to the
Escrow Funds) or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Senior Notes or this Senior
Notes Indenture.



          The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Senior Notes or
does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder
in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or
remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default.



109









 




No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. To the extent required by law, all available
remedies are cumulative.




          SECTION 6.04. Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of a majority in principal amount
of outstanding Senior Notes by written notice to the Trustee may waive an existing Default and its
consequences except (a) a Default in the payment of the principal of or interest on a Senior Note,
(b) a Default arising from the failure to redeem or purchase any Senior Note when required pursuant
to the terms of this Senior Notes Indenture or (c) a Default in respect of a provision that under
Section 9.02 cannot be amended without the consent of the Holders of not less than 100% of the then
outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes. When a Default is waived, it is deemed
cured and the Issuers, the Senior Note Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored to
their former positions and rights under this Senior Notes Indenture, but no such waiver shall
extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any consequent right.



          SECTION 6.05. Control by Majority. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of
outstanding Senior Notes are given the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any
proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on
the Trustee. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or
this Senior Notes Indenture or, subject to Section 7.01, that the Trustee determines is unduly
prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder or that would involve the Trustee in personal
liability. Prior to taking any action under this Senior Notes Indenture, the Trustee will be
entitled to indemnification satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and
expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.



          SECTION 6.06. Limitation on Suits. (a) Subject to Section 7.01, in case an Event of
Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the
rights or powers under this Senior Notes Indenture at the request or direction of any of the
holders unless such holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to it
against any loss, liability or expense. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of
principal, premium (if any) or interest when due, no holder may pursue any remedy with respect to
this Senior Notes Indenture or the Senior Notes unless:




     (i) such Holder has previously given the Trustee notice that an Event of Default is
continuing,




     (ii) Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Senior Notes have
requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy,




     (iii) such Holders have offered the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it
against any loss, liability or expense,




     (iv) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt of
the request and the offer of security or indemnity, and




     (v) the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Senior Notes have
not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period.



110









 





          SECTION 6.07. Rights of the Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Senior Notes Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal
of and interest on the Senior Notes held by such Holder, on or after the respective due dates
expressed or provided for in the Senior Notes, 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
the Holders of not less than 100% of the then outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Senior
Notes.



          SECTION 6.08. Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default specified in
Section 6.01(a) or (b) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name
and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuers, BP I or any other obligor on the Senior
Notes for the whole amount then due and owing (together with interest on overdue principal and (to
the extent lawful) on any unpaid interest at the rate provided for in the Senior Notes) and the
amounts provided for in Section 7.07.



          SECTION 6.09. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee may 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 reasonable compensation, expenses disbursements and advances
of the Trustee (including counsel, accountants, experts or such other professionals as the Trustee
deems necessary, advisable or appropriate)) and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings
relative to the Issuers, BP I or any Senior Note Guarantor, their creditors or their property,
shall be entitled to participate as a member, voting or otherwise, of any official committee of
creditors appointed in such matters and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may
vote on behalf of the Holders in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing
similar functions, and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each
Holder to make 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 it for the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its
counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07. To the extent that the payment
of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and
counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof out of the estate in any
such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on,
and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other
properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or
under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be
deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any
Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Senior
Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of
any Holder in any such proceeding.



          SECTION 6.10. Priorities. If the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to
this Article VI, it shall pay out the money or property in the following order:




     FIRST: to the Trustee for amounts due under Section 7.07;




     SECOND: to the Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Senior Notes for principal,
premium, if any, and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any



111









 






kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Senior Notes for principal and
interest, respectively; and




     THIRD: to the Issuers or, to the extent the Trustee collects any amount for any Senior
Note Guarantor, to such Senior Note Guarantor.



          The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to the Holders pursuant to
this Section 6.10 and shall notify the Issuers of such record date. At least 15 days before such
record date, the Issuers shall deliver to each Holder and the Trustee a notice that states the
record date, the payment date and amount to be paid.



          SECTION 6.11. Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or
remedy under this Senior Notes Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or
omitted by it as Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in
the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess
reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees 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 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder
pursuant to Section 6.07 or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of outstanding
Senior Notes.



          SECTION 6.12. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. None of the Issuers, BP I or any
Senior Note Guarantor (to the extent it may lawfully do so) shall at any time insist upon, or
plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension
law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the
performance of this Senior Notes Indenture; and the Issuers, BP I and each Senior Note Guarantor
(to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waive all benefit or advantage of any
such law, and shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the
Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had
been enacted.



          SECTION 6.13. Direction to Agents. Following the occurrence of an Event of Default
or a potential Event of Default, the Trustee may, by notice to the Agents, require them to act
under its direction.

any statement contained in any such instance, but may accept the same as conclusive evidence
of the truth and accuracy of such statement or the correctness of such opinions. However,
in the case of certificates or opinions required by any provision hereof to be provided to
it, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they
conform to the requirements of this Senior Notes Indenture (but need not confirm or
investigate the truth or accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts, statements or
opinions stated therein).



          (c) The Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its own
negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that:




     (i) this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section 7.01;




     (ii) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a
Trust Officer unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the
pertinent facts;

take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.02 or

subject to paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 7.01.



          (e) The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the

          SECTION 7.02. Rights of Trustee. Subject to Section 7.01:



          (a) The Trustee may conclusively rely on any document believed by it to be genuine and to
have been signed or presented by the proper person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or
matter stated in the document.



113









 





          (b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officers’ Certificate
or an Opinion of Counsel or both. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits
to take in good faith in reliance on the Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel.



          (c) The Trustee may act through agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or
negligence of any agent appointed with due care.



          (d) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith
which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers; provided, however, that the
Trustee’s conduct does not constitute willful misconduct or negligence.



          (e) The Trustee may consult with professional advisers and/or counsel of its own selection
and the advice or opinion of counsel with respect to legal matters relating to this Senior Notes
Indenture and the Senior Notes or any other agreement referenced herein shall be full and complete
authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered by
it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such professional
advisers and/or counsel.



          (f) The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated
in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent,
order, approval, bond, debenture, note or other paper or document unless requested in writing to do
so by the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of outstanding Senior Notes at
the time outstanding, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or
investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to
make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and
premises of the Issuers or BP I, personally or by agent or attorney, at the expense of the Issuers
and BP I and shall incur no liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation.



          (g) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested
in it by this Senior Notes Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to
this Senior Notes Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security and/or
indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be
incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.



          (h) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee under
this Article VII, including without limitation its right to be indemnified and all other rights
provided under this Article VII (other than with respect to the Collateral Agent, Section 7.07(b)),
are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Collateral Agent and The Bank of New York Mellon,
as the Trustee and in each of its other capacities hereunder.



          (i) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith at
the direction of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of outstanding Senior
Notes as to the time, method and place of conducting any proceedings for any remedy available to
the Trustee or the exercising of any power conferred by this Senior Notes Indenture.



          (j) Any action taken, or omitted to be taken, by the Trustee in good faith pursuant to this
Senior Notes Indenture upon the request or authority or consent of any person who, at the



114









 




time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is the Holder of any Senior
Note shall be conclusive and binding upon future Holders of Senior Notes and upon Senior Notes
executed and delivered in exchange therefor or in place thereof.




          (k) The Trustee shall have no duty to inquire as to the performance of the covenants of the
Issuers, BP II or BP I, its Subsidiaries and/or the Senior Note Guarantors in Article IV hereof,
except with respect to Section 4.01 and shall be entitled to assume that the Issuers have performed
in accordance with all of the provisions of this Senior Notes Indenture, unless otherwise notified
to it in writing. Delivery of reports, information and documents to the Trustee under Section 4.02
is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of the foregoing shall not constitute
constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained
therein, including the Issuers’, BP I’s, BP II’s or RGHL’s compliance with any of their covenants
hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely on Officers’ Certificates).



          (l) The Trustee shall not have any obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to
compliance, and shall not be responsible or liable for compliance with restrictions on transfer,
exchange, redemption, purchase or repurchase, as applicable, of minimum denominations imposed under
this Senior Notes Indenture or under applicable law or regulation with respect to any transfer,
exchange, redemption, purchase or repurchase, as applicable, of any interest in any Senior Notes.



          (m) The Trustee is not required to give any bond or surety with respect to the performance of
its duties or the exercise of its powers under this Senior Notes Indenture or the Senior Notes.



          (n) The Trustee shall not, under any circumstance be liable for any special or consequential
damages (being loss of business, goodwill, opportunity or profit of any kind) of the Issuers, BP I,
BP II or any Senior Note Guarantor or any Subsidiary or any other Person.



          (o) The Issuers shall deliver no later than the date of execution of this Senior Notes
Indenture an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the names of the individuals and/or titles of
officers, authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Senior Notes
Indenture, which Officers’ Certificate may be signed by any person authorized to sign an Officers’
Certificate, including any person specified as so authorized in any such certificate previously
delivered and not superseded, and the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the most recent
Officers’ Certificate received.



          (p) The Trustee will not be liable if prevented or delayed in performing any of its
obligations by reason of any present or future law applicable to it, by any governmental or
regulatory authority or by any force majeure circumstances beyond its control.



          (q) In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the
performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of, or caused by, directly or indirectly,
forces majeures beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages,
accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural
catastrophes or acts of God; it being understood that the Trustee shall use reasonable best efforts
which are



115









 




consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as
practicable under the circumstances.




          (r) The Trustee may refrain from taking any action in any jurisdiction if the taking of such
action in that jurisdiction would, in its opinion based upon legal advice in the relevant
jurisdiction, be contrary to any law of that jurisdiction or, to the extent applicable, of the
State of New York. Furthermore, the Trustee may also refrain from taking such action if it could
otherwise render it liable to any person in that jurisdiction or the State of New York or if, in
its opinion based upon such legal advice, it would not have the power to do the relevant thing in
that jurisdiction by virtue of any applicable law in that jurisdiction or in the State of New York
or if it is determined by any court or other competent authority in that jurisdiction or in the
State of New York that it does not have such power.



          SECTION 7.03. Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee in its individual or any
other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Senior Notes and may otherwise deal with the
Issuers or their Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Paying
Agent or Registrar may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee must comply with Section
7.10.



          SECTION 7.04. Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee shall not be responsible for and
makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Senior Notes Indenture, any Senior
Note Guarantee or the Senior Notes. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the Issuers’ or BP
I’s use of the proceeds from the Senior Notes, and it shall not be responsible for any statement of
the Issuers, BP I or any Senior Note Guarantor in this Senior Notes Indenture or in any document
issued in connection with the sale of the Senior Notes or in the Senior Notes other than the
Trustee’s certificate of authentication. The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any
Default or Event of Default under Sections 6.01(c), (d), (e), (f), (g), (h) or (i) or of the
identity of any Significant Subsidiary unless a Trust Officer in the Corporate Trust Office of the
Trustee shall have received written notice thereof referencing this Senior Notes Indenture and the
applicable section of 6.01 hereof in accordance with Section 13.02 hereof from the Issuers, BP I,
any Senior Note Guarantor or any Holder. In accepting the trust hereby created, the Trustee acts
solely as Trustee for the Holders of the Senior Notes and not in its individual capacity and all
persons, including the Holders of Senior Notes and the Issuers having any claim against the Trustee
arising from this Senior Notes Indenture shall look only to the funds and accounts held by the
Trustee hereunder for payment except as otherwise provided herein.



          SECTION 7.05. Notice of Defaults. If a Default occurs and is continuing and has been
notified to the Trustee, the Trustee must mail (or otherwise deliver in accordance with applicable
DTC procedures, as applicable) to each registered holder of Senior Notes notice of the Default
within the earlier of 90 days after it occurs or 30 days after written notice of it is received by
the Trustee.



          SECTION 7.06. [Reserved.]



          SECTION 7.07. Compensation and Indemnity. (a) The Issuers, failing which the Senior
Note Guarantors, shall pay to the Trustee and each Agent from time to time compensation for their
respective services as agreed in writing between the Issuers and the



116









 




Trustee and each Agent from time to time and, following the occurrence of an Event of Default
or a potential Event of Default, such additional fees and expenses as the Trustee deems to be
appropriate. The Trustee’s and each Agent’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on
compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuers, jointly and severally, failing which
the Senior Note Guarantors shall reimburse the Trustee and each Agent upon request for all properly
incurred out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, in addition
to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the properly incurred
compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee’s and each Agent’s agents,
counsel, accountants and experts. The Issuers and each Senior Note Guarantor, jointly and
severally shall indemnify the Trustee and each Agent (which in each case, for purposes of this
Section 7.07, shall include its officers, directors, employees, agents and counsel) against any and
all loss, liability, claim, taxes, costs, damage or expense (including properly incurred attorneys’
fees and expenses) incurred by or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust
and the performance of its duties hereunder, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this
Senior Notes Indenture or Senior Note Guarantee against the Issuers, BP I or a Senior Note
Guarantor (including this Section 7.07) and defending itself against or investigating any claim
(whether asserted by the Issuers, BP I, any Senior Note Guarantor, any Holder or any other Person).
The obligation to pay such amounts shall survive the payment in full or defeasance of the Senior
Notes or the removal or resignation of the Trustee or the applicable Agent. The Trustee or the
applicable Agent shall notify the Issuers of any claim for which it may seek indemnity promptly
upon obtaining actual knowledge thereof; provided, however, that any failure so to notify the
Issuers shall not relieve the Issuers, BP I or any Senior Note Guarantor of its indemnity
obligations hereunder. The Issuers shall defend the claim and the indemnified party shall provide
reasonable cooperation at the Issuers’ expense in the defense. Such indemnified parties may have
separate counsel and the Issuers, BP I and the Senior Note Guarantors, as applicable, shall pay the
fees and expenses of such counsel. The Issuers need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against
any loss, liability or expense incurred by an indemnified party solely through such party’s own
willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.




          (b) To secure the payment obligations of the Issuers, BP I and the other Senior Note
Guarantors in this Section 7.07, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Senior Notes on all
money or property held or collected by the Trustee other than money or property held to pay
principal of and interest on particular Senior Notes.



          (c) The Issuers’ and the Senior Note Guarantors’ payment obligations pursuant to this Section
7.07 shall survive the satisfaction or discharge of this Senior Notes Indenture, any rejection or
termination of this Senior Notes Indenture under any Bankruptcy Law or the resignation or removal
of the Trustee. Without prejudice to any other rights available to the Trustee under applicable
law, when the Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section
6.01(f) or (g) with respect to the Issuers or BP I, the expenses are intended to constitute
expenses of administration under the Bankruptcy Law.



          (d) No provision of this Senior Notes Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk
its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties
hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if repayment of such funds or
adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not assured to its satisfaction.

          For the avoidance of doubt, the rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits
given to the Trustee in this Section 7.07, including its rights to be indemnified, are extended to,
and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee and by each Agent.



          SECTION 7.08. Replacement of Trustee or Agent. (a) The Trustee and any Agent may
resign at any time by so notifying the Issuers or BP I. The Holders of a majority in principal
amount of outstanding Senior Notes may remove the Trustee or any Agent by so notifying the Trustee

     (ii) the Trustee or such Agent is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;




     (iii) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or such Agent or
its property; or




     (iv) the Trustee or such Agent otherwise becomes incapable of acting.



          (b) If the Trustee resigns, is removed by the Issuers or by the Holders of a majority in
principal amount of outstanding Senior Notes and such Holders do not reasonably promptly appoint a
successor Trustee, or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason (the Trustee in
such event being referred to herein as the retiring Trustee), the Issuers shall promptly appoint a
successor Trustee.



          (c) A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring
Trustee and to the Issuers or BP I. Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee
shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of
the Trustee under this Senior Notes Indenture. The successor Trustee shall deliver a notice of its
succession to the Holders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as
Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.07(b).



          (d) If a successor Trustee or Agent, as applicable, does not take office within 60 days after
the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, (i) the retiring Trustee or Agent, as applicable, or
the Holders of 10% in principal amount of outstanding Senior Notes may petition at the expense of
the Issuers any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee or (ii)
the retiring Trustee or Agent, as applicable, may appoint a successor Trustee or Agent, as
applicable, at any time prior to the date on which a successor Trustee or Agent, as applicable,
takes office; provided that such appointment shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Issuers.



          (e) If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10, any Holder who has been a bona fide
Holder of a Senior Note for at least six months may petition any court of competent jurisdiction
for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.



118









 





          (f) Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the
Issuers’ or BP I’s obligations under Section 7.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring
Trustee or Agent, as applicable.



          SECTION 7.09. Successor Trustee by Merger. If the Trustee consolidates with, merges
or converts into, or transfers all or Substantially All of its corporate trust business or assets
to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation
without any further act shall be the successor Trustee.



          In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to the
Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Senior Notes Indenture any of the Senior Notes
shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the
certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Senior Notes so
authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Senior Notes shall not have been authenticated,
any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Senior Notes either in the name of any
predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases such
certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Senior Notes or in this Senior
Notes Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have; provided, however, that
the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee or to authenticate
Senior Notes in the name of any predecessor Trustee shall apply only to its successor or successors
by merger, conversion or consolidation.



          SECTION 7.10. Eligibility; Disqualification. This Senior Notes Indenture shall at
all times have a Trustee that is an entity organized and doing business under the laws of the
United States or any state thereof, or a member state of the European Union or a political
subdivision thereof, that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power and
that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities or by the authorities
of a member state of the European Union or a political subdivision thereof. The Trustee shall have
a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published
annual report of condition. No obligor under the Senior Notes or Person directly controlling,
controlled by, or under common control with such obligor shall serve as Trustee.

          SECTION 8.01. Discharge of Liability on Senior Notes; Defeasance. This Senior Notes
Indenture shall be discharged and shall cease to be of further effect (except as to surviving
rights of registration of transfer or exchange of Senior Notes, as expressly provided for in this
Senior Notes Indenture) as to all outstanding Senior Notes when:




     (a) either (i) all the Senior Notes theretofore authenticated and delivered (except
lost, stolen or destroyed Senior Notes which have been replaced or paid and Senior Notes for
whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held by the
Issuers and thereafter repaid to the Issuers or discharged from such trust) have been
delivered to the Trustee for cancellation or (ii) all of the Senior Notes (A) have become
due and payable, (B) will become due and payable at their stated maturity within



119









 






one year or (C) if redeemable at the option of the Issuers, are to be called for
redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of
notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Issuers, and the
Issuers have irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee funds in an
amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Senior Notes not
theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal of, premium, if any,
and interest on the Senior Notes to the date of deposit together with irrevocable
instructions from the Issuers directing the Trustee to apply such funds to the payment
thereof at maturity or redemption, as the case may be;




     (b) BP I, BP II, each Issuer or the Senior Note Guarantors have paid all other sums
payable under this Senior Notes Indenture; and




     (c) the Issuers have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion
of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent under this Senior Notes Indenture relating
to the satisfaction and discharge of this Senior Notes Indenture have been complied with;
provided that any counsel may rely on an Officers’ Certificate as to matters of fact.




Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, the Issuers’, BP I’s or BP II’s obligations in
Sections 2.04, 2.05, 2.06, 2.07, 2.08, 2.09, 4.15, 7.07, 7.08 and in this Article VIII shall
survive until the Senior Notes have been paid in full. Thereafter, the Issuers’ BP I’s or
BP II’s obligations in Sections 7.07 and 8.06 shall survive such satisfaction and discharge.



          Subject to the preceding paragraph and Section 8.02, the Issuers at any time may terminate (i)
all of their obligations under the Senior Notes and this Senior Notes Indenture (with respect to
such Senior Notes) (“legal defeasance option”) or (ii) its obligations under Sections 4.02, 4.03,
4.04, 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.16, 4.17, 4.18, 4.19, 4.20, 4.21(a) and the

the Senior Notes and this Senior Notes Indenture (with respect to such Senior Notes) by exercising
their legal defeasance option or their covenant defeasance option, each Senior Note Guarantor will
be released from all of its obligations with respect to its Senior Note Guarantee.



          If the Issuers exercise their legal defeasance option, payment of the Senior Notes may not be
accelerated because of an Event of Default with respect thereto. If the Issuers exercise their
covenant defeasance option, payment of the Senior Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event
of Default specified in Section 6.01(c), 6.01(d), 6.01(e), 6.01(f) (with respect only to
Significant Subsidiaries), 6.01(g) (with respect only to Significant Subsidiaries), 6.01(h),

     (i) the Issuers irrevocably deposit with the Trustee money in US Dollars, the principal
of and the interest on which shall be sufficient, or a combination thereof sufficient, to
pay the principal of and premium (if any) and interest on the Senior Notes when due at
maturity or redemption, as the case may be, including interest thereon to maturity or such
redemption date;




     (ii) the Issuers delivers to the Trustee a certificate from a nationally recognized
firm of independent accountants expressing their opinion that the payments of principal and
interest when due and without reinvestment on the deposited US Dollars, plus any deposited
money without investment shall provide cash at such times and in such amounts as shall be
sufficient to pay principal, premium, if any, and interest when due on all the Senior Notes
to maturity or redemption, as the case may be;




     (iii) 90 days pass after the deposit is made and during the 90-day period no Default
specified in Section 6.01(f) or (g) with respect to either Issuer, BP I or BP II occurs
which is continuing at the end of the period;




     (iv) the deposit does not constitute a default under any other material agreement
binding on either Issuer, BP I or BP II;




     (v) in the case of the legal defeasance option, the Issuers shall have delivered to the
Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (1) the Issuers have received from, or there has
been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (2) since the date of this
Senior Notes Indenture there has been a change in the applicable U.S. Federal income tax
law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall
confirm that, the Holders shall not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. Federal income
tax purposes as a result of such deposit and defeasance and shall be subject to U.S. Federal
income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been
the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred; provided, however, the Opinion of
Counsel required with respect to a legal defeasance need not be delivered if all Senior
Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable;




     (vi) in the case of the covenant defeasance option, the Issuers shall have delivered to
the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders shall not recognize income,
gain or loss for U.S. Federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and defeasance
and shall be subject to U.S. Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and
at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not
occurred; and



121









 






     (vii) the Issuers deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of
Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to the defeasance and discharge of the
Senior Notes to be so defeased and discharged as contemplated by this Article VIII have been
complied with.



          (b) Before or after a deposit, the Issuers may make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee
for the redemption of such Senior Notes at a future date in accordance with Article III.



          SECTION 8.03. Application of Trust Money. The Trustee shall hold money deposited
with it pursuant to this Article VIII. The Trustee shall apply the deposited money through each
Paying Agent and in accordance with this Senior Notes Indenture to the payment of principal of and
interest on the Senior Notes so discharged or defeased.

promptly pay to the Issuers upon request an amount equal to any money held by it as provided in
this Article VIII which, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be
deposited to effect an equivalent discharge or defeasance in accordance with this Article VIII.



          Subject to any applicable abandoned property law, the Trustee and each Paying Agent shall pay
to the Issuers upon written request any money held by them for the payment of principal or interest
that remains unclaimed for two years, and, thereafter, Holders entitled to the money must look to
the Issuers for payment as general creditors, and the Trustee and each Paying Agent shall have no
further liability with respect to such monies.



          SECTION 8.05. [Reserved.]



          SECTION 8.06. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or any Paying Agent is unable to apply
any money in accordance with this Article VIII 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 Issuers’ and the Senior Notes Guarantors’ obligations under this
Senior Notes Indenture and the Senior Notes so discharged or defeased shall be revived and
reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article VIII until such time as the
Trustee or any Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with this Article
VIII; provided, however, that, if any Issuer or any Senior Note Guarantor has made any payment of
principal of or interest on, any such Senior Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations,
such Issuer or Senior Note Guarantor, as the case may be, shall be subrogated to the rights of the
Holders of such Senior Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or any
Paying Agent.

Guarantee by the Payors, unless RGHL or any Restricted Subsidiary agrees to pay any
Additional Amounts that arise as a result; provided that for purposes of this clause (x) a

     (b) Subject to the terms of Section 9.02(a) (including clauses (i) through (x)

Senior Note. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent or waiver as to
such Holder’s Senior Note or portion of the Senior Note if the Trustee receives the notice of
revocation before the date on which the Trustee receives an Officers’ Certificate from each Issuer
certifying that the requisite principal amount of Senior Notes have consented. After an amendment
or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder. An amendment or waiver becomes effective
upon the (i) receipt by the Issuers or the Trustee of consents by the Senior Notes of the requisite

or waiver changes the terms of a Senior Note, the Issuers may require the Holder of the Senior Note
to deliver it to the Trustee. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Senior Note
regarding the changed terms and return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Issuers or the
Trustee so determines in exchange for the Senior Note, the Issuers shall issue and the Trustee
shall authenticate a new Senior Note that reflects the changed terms. Failure to make the
appropriate notation or to issue a new Senior Note shall not affect the validity of such amendment,
supplement or waiver.



          SECTION 9.06. Trustee to Sign Amendments. The Trustee shall sign any amendment,

but need not sign it. In signing such amendment, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive
indemnity or security satisfactory to it and shall be provided with, and (subject to Section 7.01)
shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel
stating that such amendment, supplement or waiver is authorized or permitted by this Senior Notes
Indenture and that such amendment, supplement or waiver is the legal, valid and binding obligation
of the Issuers and the Senior Note Guarantors, enforceable against them in accordance with its
terms, subject to customary exceptions, and complies with the provisions hereof.

shall, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration, whether by way of
interest, fee or otherwise, to any Holder for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or
amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Senior Notes Indenture or the Senior Notes
unless such consideration is offered to be paid to all Holders that so consent, waive or agree to
amend in the time frame set forth in solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or
agreement.



          SECTION 9.08. Compliance with the Trust Indenture Act. All amendments and
supplements shall comply with the Trust Indenture Act if, at the time of any such amendment,
supplement or waiver, the Trust Indenture Act is applicable to this Senior Notes Indenture. In the
event the Senior Notes are registered with the SEC pursuant to the Senior Notes Registration Rights
Agreement, the Trust Indenture Act shall govern this Senior Notes Indenture.

ARTICLE X




Guarantees



          SECTION 10.01. Guarantees. (a) From and after the Escrow Release Date, each Senior
Note Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, jointly and severally, on a
senior basis, to each Holder and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns (i) the full and
punctual payment of principal of and interest on the Senior Notes when due, whether at maturity, by
acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, and all other monetary obligations of the Issuers under
this Senior Notes Indenture and the Senior Notes and (ii) the full and punctual performance within
applicable grace periods of all other obligations of the Issuers under this Senior Notes Indenture
and the Senior Notes (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the “Guaranteed
Obligations”), subject to the limitations set forth in Section 10.08; provided, however, that in no
event shall a US Controlled Foreign Subsidiary be required to guarantee the Guaranteed Obligations.
Each Senior Note Guarantor further agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or
renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from such Senior Note Guarantor and
that such Senior Note Guarantor will remain bound under this Article X notwithstanding any
extension or renewal of any Guaranteed Obligation.



          (b) Each Senior Note Guarantor waives presentation to, demand of, payment from and protest to
the Issuers of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment.
Each Senior Note Guarantor waives notice of any default under the Senior Notes or the Guaranteed
Obligations. The obligations of each Senior Note Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by (1)
the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or
remedy against the Issuers or any other Person (including any Senior Note Guarantor) under this
Senior Notes Indenture, the Senior Notes or any other agreement or otherwise; (2) any extension or
renewal of any thereof; (3) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms
or provisions of this Senior Notes Indenture, the Senior Notes or any other agreement; (4) the
release of any security held by any Holder or the Trustee for the Guaranteed Obligations or any of
them; (5) the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to exercise any right or remedy against any
other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations; or (6) except as set forth in Section 10.06, any
change in the ownership of such Senior Note Guarantor.



          (c) Each Senior Note Guarantor further agrees that its Senior Note Guarantee herein
constitutes a guarantee of payment, performance and compliance when due (and not a guarantee of
collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder or the Trustee to
any security held for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations.



          (d) [Reserved.]



          (e) Except as expressly set forth in Article VIII and Sections 10.02, 10.06 and 10.08, the
obligations of each Senior Note Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction,
limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release,
surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense of setoff,
counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or



127









 




unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, the obligations of each Senior Note Guarantor herein shall not be discharged or
impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to assert any claim or
demand or to enforce any remedy under this Senior Notes Indenture, the Senior Notes or any other
agreement, by any waiver or modification of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful
or otherwise, in the performance of the obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or
delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk
of such Senior Note Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of such Senior Note
Guarantor as a matter of law or equity.




          (f) Each Senior Note Guarantor further agrees that its Senior Note Guarantee herein shall
continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part
thereof, of principal of or interest on any Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored
by any Holder or the Trustee upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of either Issuer or otherwise.



          (g) In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder
or the Trustee has at law or in equity against any Senior Note Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the
failure of the Issuers to pay the principal of or interest on any Guaranteed Obligation when and as
the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, or to
perform or comply with any other Guaranteed Obligation, each Senior Note Guarantor hereby promises
to and shall, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in
cash, to the Holders or the Trustee an amount equal to the sum of (A) the unpaid amount of such
Guaranteed Obligations, (B) accrued and unpaid interest and premiums (if any) on such Guaranteed
Obligations (but only to the extent not prohibited by law) and (C) all other monetary Guaranteed
Obligations of the Issuers to the Holders and the Trustee.



          (h) Each Senior Note Guarantor agrees that, as between it, on the one hand, and the Holders
and the Trustee, on the other hand, (i) the maturity of the Guaranteed Obligations hereby may be
accelerated as provided in Article VI for the purposes of such Senior Note Guarantor’s Senior Note
Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such
acceleration in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby, and (ii) in the event of
any declaration of acceleration of such Guaranteed Obligations as provided in Article VI, such
Guaranteed Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by
such Senior Note Guarantor for the purposes of this Section 10.01.



          (i) Each Senior Note Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including
reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), subject to the limitations set forth in Section 10.08,
incurred by the Trustee or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section 10.01.



          SECTION 10.02. Limitation on Liability. Any term or provision of this Senior Notes
Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum aggregate amount of the Guaranteed
Obligations guaranteed hereunder by any Senior Note Guarantor shall not exceed the maximum amount
that can be hereby guaranteed without rendering this Senior Notes Indenture,



128









 




as it relates to such Senior Note Guarantor, voidable under applicable law relating to
fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors
generally.




          SECTION 10.03. Successors and Assigns. This Article X shall be binding upon each
Senior Note Guarantor and its successors and shall inure to the benefit of the successors,
transferees and assigns of the Trustee and the Holders and, in the event of any transfer or
assignment of rights by any Holder or the Trustee, the rights and privileges conferred upon that
party in this Senior Notes Indenture and in the Senior Notes shall automatically extend to and be
vested in such transferee or assignee, all subject to the terms and conditions of this Senior Notes
Indenture. Each Senior Note Guarantee shall be a continuing guarantee and shall, subject to
Section 10.06, remain in full force and effect until the payment in full of the Guaranteed
Obligations.



          SECTION 10.04. No Waiver. Neither a failure nor a delay on the part of either the
Trustee or the Holders in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Article X shall
operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or
further exercise of any right, power or privilege. The rights, remedies and benefits of the
Trustee and the Holders herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any other
rights, remedies or benefits which either may have under this Article X at law, in equity, by
statute or otherwise.



          SECTION 10.05. Modification. No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision
of this Article X, nor the consent to any departure by any Senior Note Guarantor therefrom, shall
in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Trustee, and then
such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for
which given. No notice to or demand on any Senior Note Guarantor in any case shall entitle such
Senior Note Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other
circumstances.



          SECTION 10.06. Release of Senior Note Guarantor. A Senior Note Guarantee of a Senior
Note Guarantor will be automatically released upon (x) receipt by the Trustee of a notification
from BP I that such Senior Note Guarantee be released and (y) the occurrence of any of the
following:




     (a) the consummation of any transaction permitted by this Senior Notes Indenture as a
result of which such Senior Note Guarantor ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary;




     (b) the release or discharge of the guarantee or other obligation by such Senior Note
Guarantor of the Senior Secured Credit Facilities or such other guarantee or other
obligation that resulted in the creation of such Senior Note Guarantee, except a release or
discharge by or as a result of payment under such guarantee;




     (c) BP I designating such Senior Note Guarantor to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary in
accordance with Section 4.04 and the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary”;




     (d) the Issuers’ exercise of their legal defeasance option or covenant defeasance
option as described under Article VIII or if the Issuers’ obligations under this Senior



129









 






Notes Indenture are otherwise discharged in accordance with the terms of this Senior
Notes Indenture; or




     (e) the transfer or sale of the equity interests of such Senior Note Guarantor pursuant
to an enforcement action, in accordance with the terms of the First Lien Intercreditor
Agreement.



          Upon the occurrence of any event set forth by this Section 10.06, the applicable Senior Note
Guarantor will be required to deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that all
conditions precedent provided for in this Senior Notes Indenture relating to the release have been
complied with.



          A Senior Note Guarantee of a Senior Note Guarantor also will be released as provided Section
5.01.



          SECTION 10.07. RGHL Release. RGHL will be released from its Senior Note Guarantee in
connection with the substantially concurrent transfer by RGHL of the capital stock of BP I to a
newly formed subsidiary of RGHL (“Midco”); provided that (a) Midco is a corporation, partnership or
limited liability company organized or existing under the laws of any member state of the European
Union that was a member state on January 1, 2004, the United States, the District of Columbia, or
any state or territory thereof or New Zealand; (b) Midco expressly assumes or replaces all the
obligations of RGHL under this Senior Notes Indenture, the Senior Notes Registration Rights
Agreement, the Senior Notes and RGHL’s Senior Note Guarantee pursuant to a supplemental or
replacement indenture or other documents or instruments in form reasonably satisfactory to the
Trustee; (c) immediately after giving effect to such transaction on a pro forma basis (and treating
any Indebtedness which becomes an obligation of Midco as a result of such transaction as having
been Incurred by Midco at the time of such transaction), no Default shall have occurred and be
continuing and the Issuers would be able to Incur an additional $1.00 of Indebtedness pursuant
Section 4.03; (d) RGHL delivers to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel,
each stating that such transfer and such supplemental indenture comply with this Senior Notes
Indenture (and in giving such opinion such counsel may rely on an Officers’ Certificate as to any
matters of fact); and (e) RGHL delivers to the Trustee a resolution adopted in good faith by the
majority of the Board of Directors of RGHL approving such transaction and set forth in an Officers’
Certificate certifying that such transaction complies with the requirements of this Senior Notes
Indenture.



          Upon any occurrence specified in Section 10.06 or 10.07, the Trustee shall, at the instruction
of and at the cost of the Issuers, execute any documents reasonably requested of it to evidence
such release.



          SECTION 10.08. Limitation on Guarantees in the Netherlands, Switzerland, Austria,
Thailand, Germany, Luxembourg, Guernsey, Mexico, Hong Kong and England and Wales. (a)
Notwithstanding any provision of this Senior Notes Indenture or any other Senior Note Document, the
obligations of any Senior Note Guarantor organized in The Netherlands (a “Dutch Guarantor”)
expressed to be assumed in this Senior Notes Indenture shall be deemed not to be assumed by such
Dutch Guarantor to the extent that such assumption would constitute unlawful financial assistance
within the meaning of Article 2:207c or 2:98c of the Dutch Civil



130









 





Code or any other applicable financial assistance rules of any relevant jurisdiction (the
“Prohibitions”) and the provisions of this Senior Notes Indenture and the other Senior Note
Documents shall be construed accordingly. For the avoidance of doubt, it is expressly acknowledged
that each Dutch Guarantor will continue to guarantee all obligations expressed to be guaranteed in
this Senior Notes Indenture and the other Senior Note Documents, to the extent that such
obligations do not constitute a violation of the Prohibition.




          (b) Notwithstanding any provision of this Senior Notes Indenture or any other Senior Note
Document, if the obligations expressed to be assumed in this Senior Notes Indenture or any other
Senior Note Document are assumed by any Senior Note Guarantor organized, or for tax purposes
resident, in Switzerland (a “Swiss Guarantor”), such Swiss Guarantor shall:




     (i) only be liable for obligations contained in this Senior Notes Indenture or the
Senior Note Guarantee or under the Senior Note Documents (including any restructuring of
such Swiss Guarantor’s rights of set-off and/or subrogation and its duties to subordinate
claims) in relation to obligations (other than obligations under the Senior Note Documents
of (y) the Swiss Guarantor to the extent certain proceeds of this Senior Notes Indenture
have been made available to the Swiss Guarantor, up to such proceeds and (z) a direct or
indirect subsidiary of the Swiss Guarantor (the “Swiss Guarantor’s Subsidiary”) to the
extent certain proceeds of this Senior Notes Indenture have been made available to the Swiss
Guarantor’s Subsidiary, up to such proceeds) to the extent that the payment of such
obligations does not constitute a repayment of capital (Einlagerueckgewaehr), a violation of
the legally protected reserves (gesetzlich geschuetzte Reserven) or a payment of a
(constructive) dividend prohibited to be made by such Swiss Guarantor by the Swiss Federal
Code of Obligations and in the maximum amount of its profits available for the distribution
of dividends on the date which such Swiss Guarantor’s obligations hereunder are due (it
being understood that such available profits are the balance sheet profits and any free
reserves made for this purpose, in each case in accordance with the relevant Swiss law).




     (ii) pass for such payments shareholders’ resolutions for the distribution of dividends
in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Swiss Federal Code of Obligations then in
effect (it being understood that as of the Issue Date, the profits available for the
distribution of dividends as described above must be determined based on an audited balance
sheet and such shareholders’ resolutions must be based on a report from such Swiss
Guarantor’s auditors approving the proposed distribution); and




     (iii) deduct from such payments Swiss Anticipatory Tax (withholding tax) at the rate of
35% (or such other rate as is in effect from time to time) and, subject to any applicable
double taxation treaty and/or agreement entered into with the Swiss Federal Tax
Administration:




     (1) pay such deduction to the Swiss Federal Tax Administration;




     (2) give evidence to the Trustee and each noteholder of such deduction in
accordance with Section 4.15 of this Senior Notes Indenture; and



131









 






     (3) if such a deduction is made, not be obligated to gross-up pursuant to
Section 4.15 of this Senior Notes Indenture to the extent that such gross-up would
result in the aggregate amounts paid to the Trustee and/or each noteholder and the
Swiss Federal Tax Administration exceeding the maximum amount of such Swiss
Guarantor’s profits available for the distribution of dividends.



          (c) (i) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Senior Notes Indenture and any of the
provisions of the Senior Note Documents, any guarantee or indemnity given by or other obligation
assumed by a Senior Note Guarantor organized in Austria (each an “Austrian Guarantor”) under
Article X of this Senior Notes Indenture is meant as and is to be interpreted as an abstract
guarantee agreement (abstrakter Garantievertrag) and not as surety (Bürgschaft) or joint obligation
as borrower (Mitschuldnerschaft) and such Austrian Guarantor undertakes to pay the amounts due
under or pursuant to such obligation unconditionally, irrevocably, upon first demand and without
raising any defenses (unbedingt, unwiderruflich, über erste Anforderung und Verzicht auf alle
Einwendungen). The obligation of any Austrian Guarantor under this Senior Notes Indenture or any
other Senior Note Document shall be limited so that no assumption of an obligation shall be
required if such assumption would violate mandatory Austrian capital maintenance rules
(Kapitalerhaltungsvorschriften) under Austrian company law, including Sections 82 et seq. of the
Austrian Act on Limited Liability Companies (Gesetz über Gesellschaften mit beschränkter Haftung)
and/or Sections 52 and 65 et seq. of the Austrian Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz); and




     (ii) should any obligation under this Senior Notes Indenture or any other Senior Note
Document violate or contradict Austrian capital maintenance rules and should therefore be
held invalid or unenforceable, such liability and/or obligation shall be deemed to be
replaced by a liability and/or obligation of a similar nature that is in compliance with
Austrian capital maintenance rules and that provides the best possible security interest in
favour of the Trustee or the noteholders, for the ratable benefit of the noteholders. By
way of example, should it be held that the Senior Note Guarantee created under any Senior
Note Document is contradicting Austrian capital maintenance rules in relation to any amount
of the obligations created by such Senior Note Guarantee, the obligations created by the
respective Senior Note Document shall be reduced to such an amount of the guaranteed
obligations which is permitted pursuant to Austrian capital maintenance rules.



          (d) Each Senior Note Guarantor incorporated or organized in Thailand irrevocably and
unconditionally waives any and all rights to avoid such Thai Guarantor’s obligations under its
Senior Note Guarantee which it may have under Sections 196, 293, 294, 684, 687, 688-690, 694 and
697-701 of the Civil and Commercial Code of Thailand, and agrees not to exercise any of its rights
under Sections 693 and 696 of the Civil and Commercial Code of Thailand unless and until the
Issuers and the Senior Note Guarantors have fully performed all their obligations under this Senior
Notes Indenture and all of such obligations have been unconditionally, irrevocably, indefeasibly
and fully paid or discharged.



          (e) If the guarantee and indemnity granted in this Article X is given by a Senior Note
Guarantor incorporated in Germany in the legal form of a limited liability company (Gesellschaft
mit beschränkter Haftung (GmbH)) or a limited partnership where the sole general



132









 




partner is a GmbH (“GmbH & Co. KG”) (each, a “German Guarantor”), the following shall apply:





     (i) The noteholders and the Trustee shall be entitled to enforce the Senior Note
Guarantee against the applicable German Guarantor without limitation in respect of:




     (1) any and all amounts that are owed under the Senior Note Documents by such
German Guarantor itself or by any of its Subsidiaries; and




     (2) any and all amounts which correspond to funds that have been borrowed under
the Senior Note Documents to the extent borrowed, on-lent or otherwise passed on to,
or issued for the benefit of, the applicable German Guarantor or any of its
Subsidiaries, or for the benefit of any of their creditors and in each case not
repaid and outstanding from time to time (in aggregate, the “Unlimited Enforcement
Amount”).




     (ii) Besides an enforcement in respect of the Unlimited Enforcement Amount applicable
to a German Guarantor pursuant to paragraph (i) above, the noteholders and the Trustee shall
not be entitled to enforce the Senior Note Guarantee against such German Guarantor if and to
the extent that:




     (1) the Senior Note Guarantee secures the obligations of a party which is (x) a
shareholder of the German Guarantor or (y) an affiliated company (verbundenes
Unternehmen) within the meaning of section 15 of the German Stock Corporation Act
(Aktiengesetz) of a shareholder of the German Guarantor (other than the German
Guarantor and its Subsidiaries); and




     (2) the enforcement would have the effect of (x) reducing such German
Guarantor’s (or, in case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner’s (Komplementär))
net assets (Reinvermögen) (the “German Net Assets”) to an amount of less than its
(or, in case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner’s (Komplementär)) stated share
capital (Stammkapital) or, if the German Net Assets are already an amount of less
than its (or, in case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner’s (Komplementär))
stated share capital), of causing such amount to be further reduced and (y) would
thereby affect the assets required for the obligatory preservation of the German
Guarantor’s (or, in case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner’s (Komplementär))
stated share capital (Stammkapital) according to section 30, 31 German Limited
Liability Companies Act (Gesetz betreffend die Gesellschaften mit beschränkter
Haftung), in each case, provided that the amount of the stated share capital to be
taken into consideration shall be the amount registered in the commercial register
at the date hereof, and any increase of the stated share capital registered after
the date of this Senior Notes Indenture shall only be taken into account if such
increase has been effected with the prior written consent of the Trustee.




     (iii) The German Net Assets shall be calculated as an amount equal to the sum of the
values of such German Guarantor’s (or, in case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general



133









 






partner’s (Komplementär)) assets (consisting of all assets which correspond to the
items set forth in section 266 sub-section(2) A, B and C of such German Commercial Code
(Handelsgesetzbuch) less the aggregate amount of the German Guarantor’s (or, in case of a
GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner’s (Komplementär)) liabilities (consisting of all
liabilities and liability reserves which correspond to the items set forth in section 266
sub-section(3) B, C and D of the German Commercial Code), except that:




     (1) any asset that is shown in the balance sheet with a book value (Buchwert)
that is significantly lower than the market value of such asset and that is not
necessary for such German Guarantor’s business (nicht betriebsnotwendig) shall be
taken into account with its market value;




     (2) obligations under loans provided to such German Guarantor by any Affiliate
thereof shall not be taken into account as liabilities as far as such loans are
subordinated by law or contract at least to the claims of the unsubordinated
creditors of such German Guarantor; and




     (3) obligations under loans or other contractual liabilities incurred by such
German Guarantor (or, in case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner’s
(Komplementär)) in violation of the provisions of the Senior Note Documents shall
not be taken into account as liabilities.



          The German Net Assets shall be determined in accordance with the generally accepted accounting
principles applicable from time to time in Germany (Grundsätze ordnungsmäßiger Buchführung) and
shall be based on the same principles that were applied by such German Guarantor in the preparation
of its most recent annual balance sheet (Jahresbilanz).



          It is understood that the assets of the respective German Guarantor (or, in case of a GmbH &
Co. KG, its general partner (Komplementär)) will be assessed at liquidation values
(Liquidationswerte) if the managing directors of the applicable German Guarantor (or, in case of a
GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner (Komplementär)), at the time they prepare the Management
Determination (as defined below) are, due to factual or legal circumstances at that time, in their
opinion not able to make a positive prognosis as to whether the business of the applicable German
Guarantor (or, in case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner (Komplementär)) can carry on as a
going concern (positive Forführungsprognose), in particular when such Senior Note Guarantee is
enforced.




     (iv) The limitations set out in Section 10.08(e)(ii) shall only apply if and to the
extent that:




     (1) without undue delay, but not later than within 5 Business Days, following
receipt of a request for payment under the Senior Note Guarantee by the Trustee, the
applicable German Guarantor shall have confirmed in writing to the Trustee (x) to
what extent the Senior Note Guarantee is an up-stream or cross-stream Senior Note
Guarantee as described in Section 10.08(e)(ii)(1) and (y) which amount of such
up-stream or cross-stream Senior Note Guarantee cannot be enforced as it would cause
the net assets of the applicable German Guarantor



134









 






to fall below its stated share capital (taking into account the adjustments set
out in Section 10.08(e)(iii)) and such confirmation is supported by evidence
reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee (acting on behalf of the noteholders (the
“Management Determination”) and the noteholders shall not have contested this and
argued that no or a lesser amount would be necessary to maintain the German
Guarantor’s stated share capital; or




     (2) within 20 Business Days following the date the noteholders shall have
contested the Management Determination, the noteholders and Trustee shall receive
from the applicable German Guarantor an up-to-date balance sheet prepared by a firm
of internationally recognized auditors (the “Determining Auditors”) that shows the
value of such German Guarantor’s (or, in case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general
partner’s (Komplementär)) German Net Assets (the “Balance Sheet”). The Balance Sheet
shall be prepared in accordance with the principles set out in Section
10.08(e)(iii), provided that the final sentence of Section 10.08(e)(iii) shall not
apply unless the Determining Auditors shall have determined in an independent
assessment that the assets of applicable German Guarantor (or, in case of a GmbH &
Co. KG, its general partner (Komplementär)) should be evaluated at liquidation
values (Liquidationswerte) in accordance with the generally accepted accounting
principles applicable from time to time in Germany (Grundsätze ordnungsmäßiger
Buchführung) and shall contain further information (in reasonable detail) relating
to items to be adjusted pursuant to Section 10.08(e)(iii).




     If such German Guarantor fails to deliver a Balance Sheet within the
aforementioned time period, the noteholders and the Trustee, as applicable, shall be
entitled to enforce the Senior Note Guarantee irrespective of the limitations set
out Section 10.08(e)(ii).




     (v) If the noteholders or Trustee disagree with the Balance Sheet, they shall be
entitled to enforce the applicable Senior Note Guarantee up to the amount which, according
to the Balance Sheet, can be enforced in compliance with the limitations set out in
paragraph Section 10.08(e)(ii). In relation to any additional amounts for which such German
Guarantor is liable under the Senior Note Guarantee, the noteholders and Trustee shall be
entitled to pursue their claims (if any) further and such German Guarantor shall be entitled
to prove that this amount is necessary for maintaining its (or, in case of a GmbH & Co. KG,
its general partner’s (Komplementär)) stated share capital (calculated as of the date the
demand under the Senior Note Guarantee was made).




     (vi) No reduction of the amount enforceable under this 10.08(e) will prejudice the
right of the noteholder or the Trustee to continue enforcing the Senior Note Guarantee
(subject always to the operation of the limitations set out above at the time of such
enforcement) until full satisfaction to the claims guaranteed.



          (f) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Senior Notes Indenture or any other Senior
Note Document, the obligations of any guarantor incorporated under the laws of Luxembourg (the
“Luxembourg Guarantors”) under (i) Section 10.01 of the Senior Secured



135









 




Credit Facilities, (ii) Article X of the 2009 Indenture, (iii) Article X of the Senior Secured
Notes Indenture, (iv) Article X of the October 2010 Senior Indenture, (v) Article X of the October
2010 Senior Secured Indenture, (vi) Article X of the February 2011 Senior Indenture, (vii) Article
X of the February 2011 Senior Secured Notes Indenture, (vii) Article X of the May 2010 Indenture,
(vii) Article X of this Senior Notes Indenture and (viii) any other guarantee commitment contained
in an agreement, including, but not limited to, any facility, loan agreement or indenture which
RGHL and the administrative agent under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities agree is subject to
this limitation, in respect of the obligations of any Obligor which is not a direct or indirect
subsidiary of the applicable Luxembourg Guarantor, shall be limited to the aggregate maximum
amount, if any, permitted under applicable Luxembourg law.




          (g) Any Senior Note Guarantor organized in Guernsey irrevocably waives and abandons any right
which it has or may at any time have under the existing or future laws of Guernsey pursuant to the
principle of “droit de discussion” or otherwise, to require that recourse be had to the assets of
any party before any action is taken hereunder against it, and further irrevocably waives and
abandons any right it has or may have at any time under the existing or future laws of Guernsey,
pursuant to the principle of “droit de division” or otherwise, to require that any other party be
made a party to any proceedings, or that its liability be divided or apportioned with any other
party or reduced in any manner whatsoever.



          (h) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Senior Notes Indenture or any other Senior
Note Document, the Senior Note Guarantee of any Senior Note Guarantor organized in Guernsey does
not apply to any obligation to the extent that the assumption of such obligation would result in
such assumption constituting a breach of The Control of Borrowing (Bailiwick of Guernsey)
Ordinance, 1959 as amended by such Senior Note Guarantor or the directors of such Senior Note
Guarantor or exceeding any consent obtained thereunder.



          (i) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Senior Notes Indenture or any other Senior
Note Document, the Senior Note Guarantee of any Senior Note Guarantor organized in Guernsey does
not apply to any obligation to the extent that the assumption of such obligation would result in
such assumption constituting unlawful financial assistance within the meaning of The Companies
(Guernsey) Law, 2008, as amended or would result in such Senior Note Guarantor being unable to pass
the solvency test as prescribed by The Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008, as amended.



          (j) Any Senior Note Guarantor organized in Mexico (each, a “Mexican Guarantor”) expressly
acknowledges that the Senior Note Guarantee is governed by the laws of the State of New York and
expressly agrees that any rights and privileges that it might otherwise have under the laws of
Mexico shall not be applicable to such Senior Note Guarantee, including, but not limited to, any
benefit of orden, excusión, división, quita, novación, espera and modificación which may be
available to it under articles 2813, 2814, 2815, 2816, 2821, 2822, 2823, 2827, 2836, 2840, 2845,
2847, 2848 and 2849 of the Federal Civil Code of Mexico and the corresponding articles under the
Civil Code in effect for the Federal District of Mexico and in all other states of Mexico, and such
acknowledgement and agreement are without prejudice to such Mexican Guarantor’s rights and/or
privileges under the laws of New York (as such rights have been modified by and/or waived in the
Senior Note Documents). Each Mexican Guarantor



136









 




incorporated in Mexico represents that it is familiar with the contents of these articles and
agrees that there is no need to reproduce them herein.




          (k) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Senior Notes Indenture or any other Senior
Note Document, the Senior Note Guarantee of any Senior Note Guarantor organized in Hong Kong does
not apply to any obligation to the extent that the assumption of such obligation would result in
such assumption constituting a breach of Section 47A (Prohibition of Financial Assistance) of the
Companies Ordinance (Chapter 32 of the Laws of Hong Kong) (as amended or replaced).



          (l) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Senior Notes Indenture or any other Senior
Note Document, the Senior Note Guarantee of any Senior Note Guarantor organized in England or Wales
does not apply to any obligation to the extent that the assumption of such obligation would result
in such assumption constituting unlawful financial assistance within the meaning of Sections 678 or
679 of the Companies Act 2006 (as amended or replaced).



          (m) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Senior Notes Indenture or any other Senior
Note Document, the Senior Note Guarantee given by any Subsidiary that becomes a Senior Note
Guarantor after the Issue Date (an “Additional Guarantor”) is subject to any limitations set forth
in the supplemental indenture applicable to such Additional Guarantor.



          SECTION 10.09. Effectiveness of Article X. This Article X shall only become
effective upon the execution of the Assumption Senior Notes Supplemental Indenture.

that, in the opinion of the signers, all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this
Senior Notes Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with; and




     (b) an Opinion of Counsel in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee stating
that, in the opinion of such counsel, all such conditions precedent have been complied with.



          SECTION 13.04. Statements Required in Certificate or Opinion. Each certificate or
opinion with respect to compliance with a covenant or condition provided for in this Senior Notes
Indenture (other than pursuant to Section 4.09) shall include:




     (a) a statement that the individual making such certificate or opinion has read such
covenant or condition;




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




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

          SECTION 13.05. When Senior Notes Disregarded. In determining whether the Holders of

Senior Notes owned by the Issuers or BP II, any Senior Note Guarantor or by any Person directly or
indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the
Issuers, BP II or any Senior Note Guarantor shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding,
except that, for the purpose of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on
any such direction, waiver or consent, only Senior Notes which the Trustee knows are so owned shall
be so disregarded. Subject to the foregoing, only Senior Notes outstanding at the time shall be
considered in any such determination.



139









 





          SECTION 13.06. Rules by Trustee, Paying Agent and Registrar. The Trustee may make
reasonable rules for action by or a meeting of the Holders. The Registrar and a Paying Agent may
make reasonable rules for their functions.



          SECTION 13.07. Legal Holidays. If a payment date is not a Business Day, payment
shall be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, and no interest shall accrue on
any amount that would have been otherwise payable on such payment date if it were a Business Day
for the intervening period. If a regular record date is not a Business Day, the record date shall
not be affected.



          SECTION 13.08. GOVERNING LAW. THIS SENIOR NOTES INDENTURE AND THE SENIOR NOTES SHALL
BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD
TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW. FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, ARTICLES 86 TO 94-8 OF THE
LUXEMBOURG LAW OF AUGUST 10, 1915 ON COMMERCIAL COMPANIES SHALL NOT BE APPLICABLE IN RESPECT OF THE
SENIOR NOTES AND THIS SENIOR NOTES INDENTURE. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT NEW YORK JUDGMENTS ARE
NOT ENFORCEABLE IN AUSTRIA. THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY AGREE TO WAIVE ANY RIGHT THEY MAY HAVE TO
TRIAL BY JURY.



          SECTION 13.09. Consent to Jurisdiction and Service. Each of BP I, BP II, the Issuers
and the Senior Note Guarantors irrevocably and unconditionally: (a) submit itself and its property
in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Senior Notes Indenture to which it is a party,
or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the general jurisdiction
of the courts of the State of New York, sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York,
the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York, appellate courts
from any thereof and courts of its own corporate domicile, with respect to actions brought against
it as defendant; (b) consent that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and
waive any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding
in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees
not to plead or claim the same; (c) designate and appoint the US Issuer II, at 160 Greentree Drive,
Suite 101, Dover, DE 19904 and Reynolds Group Holdings Inc., with offices at 200 Tri-State
International Drive, Suite 500, Lincolnshire, Illinois 60069 (or its successors), as its authorized
agent upon which process may be served in any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating
to this Senior Notes Indenture or the transactions contemplated hereby that may be instituted in
any Federal or state court in the State of New York (and each of them accepts such appointments);
and (d) agree that service of any process, summons, notice or document by US registered mail
addressed to the US Issuer II, with written notice of said service to such Person at the address of
the US Issuer II set forth in this Senior Notes Indenture shall be effective service of process for
any action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court.



          SECTION 13.10. No Recourse Against Others. No (i) director, officer, employee,
manager, incorporator or holder of any Equity Interests in BP I, BP II or any Issuer or any direct
or indirect parent corporation or (ii) director, officer, employee or manager of a Senior Note
Guarantor, will have any liability for any obligations of the Issuers under the Senior Notes,



140









 




this Senior Notes Indenture, or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such
obligations or their creation; provided, however, the foregoing shall not in any manner affect the
liability of a Senior Note Guarantor with respect to its Senior Note Guarantee. Each holder of
Senior Notes by accepting a Senior Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and
release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Senior Notes. The waiver may not be
effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws.




          SECTION 13.11. Successors. All agreements of the Issuers, BP I, BP II and each
Senior Note Guarantor in this Senior Notes Indenture and the Senior Notes shall bind its
successors. All agreements of the Trustee, and each Agent in this Senior Notes Indenture shall
bind its successors.



          SECTION 13.12. Multiple Originals. The parties may sign any number of copies of this
Senior Notes Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent
the same agreement. One signed copy is enough to prove this Senior Notes Indenture.



          SECTION 13.13. Table of Contents; Headings. The table of contents, cross-reference
sheet and headings of the Articles and Sections of this Senior Notes Indenture have been inserted
for convenience of reference only, are not intended to be considered a part hereof and shall not
modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.



          SECTION 13.14. Senior Notes Indenture Controls. If and to the extent that any
provision of the Senior Notes limits, qualifies or conflicts with a provision of this Senior Notes
Indenture, such provision of this Senior Notes Indenture shall control.



          SECTION 13.15. Severability. In case any provision in this Senior Notes Indenture
shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the
remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and such provision shall
be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability.



          SECTION 13.16. Agreed Tax Treatment. The Issuers agree, and by acquiring an interest
in the Senior Notes each beneficial owner of a Senior Note agrees to treat for U.S. federal income
tax purposes the Senior Notes as debt of the sole owner of the US LLC Escrow Issuer until the
Escrow Release Date, and after the Escrow Release Date as debt of the sole owner of the US Issuer I
and interest payments on the Senior Notes as U.S. source interest; provided, however, that this
agreement shall cease to apply if the Issuers (i) determine, after taking action that is
permissible under this Senior Notes Indenture, that the aforementioned allocation of debt and
interest payments is no longer accurate as a result of the changed circumstances, and (ii) promptly
notify holders of such determination by sending first-class mail to each holder’s registered
address (or otherwise completing delivery in accordance with applicable DTC procedures).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Issuer or any other Payor may withhold from any interest payment
made on any Senior Note to or for the benefit of any person who is not a “United States person,” as
such term is defined for U.S. federal income tax purposes, U.S. federal withholding tax, and pay
such withheld amounts to the Internal Revenue Service, unless such person provides documentation to
such Issuer or other Payor such that an exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax would apply to
such payment if interest on such



141









 




Senior Note were treated as income from sources within the U.S. for U.S. federal income tax
purposes.




          SECTION 13.17. Austrian Stamp Duty. (a) No party to this Senior Notes Indenture
shall bring or send to, or otherwise produce in, Austria a Stamp Duty Sensitive Document or
communicate in writing other than in compliance with the Stamp Duty Guidelines, in each case other
than in the event that:




     (i) it does not cause a liability of a party to this Senior Notes Indenture to pay
stamp duty in the Republic of Austria;




     (ii) a party to this Senior Notes Indenture wishes to enforce any of its rights under
or in connection with a Stamp Duty Sensitive Document in any form of proceedings in the
Republic of Austria and is only able to do so by bringing or sending to, or otherwise
producing in, Austria a Stamp Duty Sensitive Document and it would not be sufficient for
that party to bring or send to, or otherwise produce in, Austria a document that is not a
Stamp Duty Sensitive Document (e.g. a simple/uncertified copy (i.e. a copy which is not an
original, notarised or certified copy) of the relevant Stamp Duty Sensitive Document) for
the purposes of such enforcement; in furtherance of the foregoing, no party to this Senior
Notes Indenture shall (A) object to the introduction into evidence of an uncertified copy of
any Stamp Duty Sensitive Document or raise a defence to any action or to the exercise of any
remedy on the basis of an original or certified copy of any Stamp Duty Sensitive Document
not having been introduced into evidence, unless such uncertified copy actually introduced
into evidence does not accurately reflect the content of the original document and (B) if
such party is a party to proceedings before an Austrian court or authority, contest the
authenticity (Echtheit) of an uncertified copy of any such Stamp Duty Sensitive Document,
unless such uncertified copy actually introduced into evidence does not accurately reflect
the content of the original document; or




     (iii) a party to this Senior Notes Indenture is required by law, governmental body,
court, authority or agency pursuant to any legal requirement (whether for the purposes of
initiating, prosecuting, enforcing or executing any claim or remedy or enforcing any
judgment or otherwise) to bring or send a Stamp Duty Sensitive Document into, or otherwise
produce a Stamp Duty Sensitive Document in, the Republic of Austria.



          (b) The Issuers, and the Senior Note Guarantors shall indemnify the Trustee, Principal Paying
Agent, Transfer Agent, Registrar and each noteholder against any cost, loss or liability in respect
of Austrian stamp duty unless such cost, loss or liability is incurred as a result of any
noteholder’s breach, or the Trustee’s negligent breach, of any obligations under Section 13.17(a),
in which case the breaching party shall be liable for payment of such stamp duty.



          SECTION 13.18. Place of Performance. The parties to this Senior Notes Indenture
shall perform their obligations under or in connection with the Senior Note Documents exclusively
at the Place of Performance (as defined below), but in no event at a place in Austria, and the
performance of any obligations or liability under or in connection with the Senior Note Documents
within the Republic of Austria shall not constitute discharge or performance of such



142









 




obligation or liability. For the purposes of the above, “Place of Performance” means (a) in
relation to any payment under or in connection with a Senior Note Document, the place at which
such payment is to be made pursuant to Section 4.01 and (b) in relation to any other obligation or
liability under or in connection with the Senior Note Documents, the premises of the Trustee in New
York or any other place outside of Austria as the Trustee may specify from time to time.

Prior to the 40th day after the Issue Date of the Senior Notes, any transfer of a beneficial
interest in a Regulation S Global Senior Security may only occur through the facilities of
Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg.




          Beneficial interests in a Rule 144A Global Senior Security may be transferred to a Person who
takes delivery in the form of an interest in a Regulation S Global Senior Security only if the
transferor first delivers to the Registrar or a Transfer Agent a written certificate (in content
consistent with the form set forth on the reverse of the Senior Note) to the effect that such
transfer is being made in accordance with Rule 903 or 904 of Regulation S to a person who is not a
U.S. person (as defined in Regulation S) and in accordance with all applicable securities laws of
any State of the United States and other jurisdictions.



          The Rule 144A Global Senior Security and the Regulation S Global Senior Security are
collectively referred to herein as the “Global Senior Securities”. The aggregate principal amount
of the Global Senior Securities may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made
on the records of the Registrar and the Common Depositary or its nominee as hereinafter provided.



          (b) Book-Entry Provisions of Senior Notes. This Section 2.1(b) shall apply only to a Global
Senior Security deposited with or on behalf of the Common Depositary.



          The Issuers shall execute and the Trustee or authentication agent shall, in accordance with
this Section 2.1(b), authenticate and deliver initially two Rule 144A Global Senior Securities in

(b) shall be delivered by the Trustee or authentication agent to the custodian for DTC or pursuant
to such custodian’s instructions.



          Members of, or participants in, DTC (“Agent Members”) shall have no rights under the Senior
Notes Indenture with respect to any Global Senior Security held on their behalf by the custodian of
DTC or the Common Depositary, as applicable, or under such Global Senior Security, and the Issuers,
the Trustee and any agent of the Issuers or the Trustee shall treat such custodian and the Common
Depositary or their nominees, as applicable, as the absolute owner of such Global Senior Security
for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the
Issuers, the Trustee or any agent of the Issuers or the Trustee from giving effect to any written
certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by DTC or impair, as between DTC and their
Agent Members, the operation of customary practices of such governing the exercise of the rights of
a holder of a beneficial interest in any Global Senior Security.



          (c) Definitive Securities. Except as provided in this Section 2.1 or Section 2.3 or 2.4,

principal amount specified in such order and (ii) Senior Exchange Securities for issue only in a
Senior Notes Registered Exchange Offer, pursuant to a Senior Notes Registration Rights Agreement,
for a like principal amount of Original Senior Notes, in each case upon a written order of the
Issuers signed by an Officer or authorized signatory of the Issuers. Such order shall specify the
amount of the Senior Notes to be authenticated and the date on which the original issue of Senior
Notes is to be authenticated and, in the case of an issuance of Additional Senior Notes pursuant to
Section 2.01 of the Senior Notes Indenture after the Issue Date, shall certify that such issuance
is in compliance with Section 4.03 of the Senior Notes Indenture. The Trustee or the
authentication agent shall authenticate Additional Senior Notes upon receipt of a written order of
an Authentication Order relating thereto.



     2.3 Transfer and Exchange.



          (a) Transfer and Exchange of Definitive Securities. When Definitive Securities are presented
to the Registrar with a request:




     (x) to register the transfer of such Definitive Securities; or




     (y) to exchange such Definitive Securities for an equal principal amount of
Definitive Securities of other authorized denominations,


the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested if its reasonable
requirements for such transaction are met; provided, however, that the Definitive Securities
surrendered for transfer or exchange:





     (i) shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form
reasonably satisfactory to the Issuers and the Registrar, duly executed by the Holder
thereof or its attorney duly authorized in writing; and




     (ii) if such Definitive Securities are required to bear a restricted securities legend,
they are being transferred or exchanged pursuant to an effective registration statement
under the Securities Act, pursuant to Section 2.3(b) or pursuant to clause (A), (B) or (C)
below, and are accompanied by the following additional information and documents, as
applicable:




     (A) if such Definitive Securities are being delivered to the Registrar by a
Holder for registration in the name of such Holder, without transfer, a
certification from such Holder to that effect; or




     (B) if such Definitive Securities are being transferred to the Issuers, a
certification to that effect; or



4









 






     (C) if such Definitive Securities are being transferred pursuant to an
exemption from registration in accordance with Rule 144A or Regulation S under the
Securities Act, a certification to that effect.



          (b) Restrictions on Transfer of a Definitive Security for a Beneficial Interest in a Global
Senior Security. A Definitive Security may not be exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Rule
144A Global Senior Security or a Regulation S Global Senior Security except upon satisfaction of
the requirements set forth below. Upon receipt by the Registrar of a Definitive Security, duly
endorsed or accompanied by appropriate instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the
Registrar, together with:




     (i) certification, in the form set forth on the reverse of the Senior Note, that such
Definitive Security is either (A) being transferred to a QIB in accordance with Rule 144A,
or (B) being transferred outside the United States in an offshore transaction in accordance
with Rule 903 or 904 under the Securities Act to a person who is not a U.S. person (as
defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act); and




     (ii) written instructions directing the Registrar to make an adjustment on its books
and records with respect to a Rule 144A Global Senior Security (in the case of a transfer
pursuant to clause (b)(i)(A)) or a Regulation S Global Senior Security (in the case of a
transfer pursuant to clause (b)(i)(B)) to reflect an increase in the aggregate principal
amount of the Senior Notes represented by a Rule 144A Global Senior Security or a Regulation
S Global Senior Security, as applicable, such instructions to contain information regarding
the transferor’s account details at DTC to be credited with such increase,


then the Registrar shall cancel such Definitive Security and cause, or direct the Transfer Agent to
cause, in accordance with standing instructions and procedures, the aggregate principal amount of
Senior Notes represented by the applicable Rule 144A Global Senior Security or the applicable
Regulation S Global Senior Security, as applicable, to be increased by the aggregate principal
amount of the Definitive Security to be exchanged and shall credit or cause to be credited to the
account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the applicable Rule
144A Global Senior Security or the applicable Regulation S Global Senior Security, as applicable,
equal to the principal amount of the Definitive Security so canceled. If no Rule 144A Global
Senior Security or Regulation S Global Senior Security, as applicable, is then outstanding, the
Issuers shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, a
new Rule 144A Global Senior Security or Regulation S Global Senior Security, as applicable, in the
appropriate principal amount. The Registrar shall record the exchange or transfer of a Definitive
Security for an interest in a Global Senior Security in accordance with this Section 2.3(b) in the
register maintained by it.




          (c) Transfer and Exchange of Global Senior Securities.




     (i) The transfer and exchange of Global Senior Securities or beneficial interests
therein shall be effected through the Common Depositary in accordance with the Senior Notes
Indenture (including applicable restrictions on transfer set forth herein, if any) and the
procedures of DTC therefor. A transferor of a beneficial interest in a Global



5









 






Senior Security shall deliver to the Registrar a written order, given in accordance
with DTC’s, procedures, containing information regarding the participant account of DTC to
be credited with a beneficial interest in the Global Senior Security. The Registrar shall,
in accordance with such instructions, instruct the Common Depositary to credit to the
account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the Global
Senior Security and to debit the account of the Person making the transfer of the beneficial
interest in the Global Senior Security being transferred.




     (ii) If the proposed transfer is a transfer of a beneficial interest in one Global
Senior Security to a beneficial interest in another Global Senior Security, the Registrar
shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of
the Global Senior Security to which such interest is being transferred in an amount equal to
the principal amount of the interest to be so transferred, and the Registrar shall reflect
on its books and records the date and a corresponding decrease in the principal amount of
the Global Senior Security from which such interest is being transferred.




     (iii) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Appendix A (other than the
provisions set forth in Section 2.4), a Global Senior Security may not be transferred as a
whole except by the custodian of DTC or the Common Depositary to a nominee thereof or a
successor thereof.




     (iv) In the event that a Global Senior Security is exchanged for Definitive Securities
pursuant to Section 2.4 of this Appendix A, prior to the consummation of a Senior Notes
Registered Exchange Offer or the effectiveness of a Senior Notes Shelf Registration
Statement with respect to such Securities, such Senior Notes may be exchanged only in
accordance with such procedures as are substantially consistent with the provisions of this
Section 2.3 (including the certification requirements set forth on the reverse of the
Original Senior Notes intended to ensure that such transfers comply with Rule 144A,
Regulation S or another applicable exemption under the Securities Act, as the case may be)
and such other procedures as may from time to time be adopted by the Issuers.

THAT THE TRANSFER COMPLIES WITH THE FOREGOING RESTRICTIONS.”



     (iii) Upon any sale or transfer of a Senior Notes Transfer Restricted Security (including any

Senior Notes Transfer Restricted Security for a certificated Senior Note that does not bear the
legend set forth above and rescind any restriction on the transfer of such Senior Notes Transfer

     (e) Cancellation or Adjustment of Global Senior Secured Security. At such time as all
beneficial interests in a Global Senior Security have either been exchanged for Definitive
Securities, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, such Global Senior Security shall be returned to the
Registrar for cancellation or retained and canceled by the Registrar. At any time prior to such
cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Senior Security is exchanged for certificated
Senior Notes, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, the principal amount of Senior Notes represented
by such Global Senior Security shall be reduced and an adjustment shall be made on the books and
records of the Registrar with respect to such Global Senior Security, by the Registrar, to reflect
such reduction.



     (f) No Obligation of the Trustee or the Registrar.

DTC, the Common Depositary or their respective nominees in the case of a Global Senior
Security). The rights of beneficial owners in any Global Senior Security shall be exercised

applicable rules and procedures of DTC. The Trustee and the Registrar may rely and shall be
fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the custodian of DTC or the Common
Depositary with respect to the Agent Members and any beneficial owners.




     (ii) The Trustee and the Registrar shall have no obligation or duty to monitor,
determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under the
Senior Notes Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest
in any Senior Note (including any transfers between or among participants in DTC, members or
beneficial owners in any Global Senior Security) other than to require delivery of such
certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so
if and when expressly required by, the terms of the Senior Notes Indenture, and to examine
the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements
hereof.



          2.4 Definitive Securities.



          (a) A Global Senior Security deposited with the custodian of DTC or the Common Depositary
pursuant to Section 2.1 shall be transferred to the beneficial owners thereof in the form of
Definitive Securities in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Global
Senior Security, in exchange for such Global Senior Security, only if such transfer complies with
Section 2.3 hereof and (i) the Issuers have consented to such transfer in writing; (ii) the Issuers
notify the Trustee in writing that DTC, acting through itself, the custodian for DTC or the Common
Depositary, as applicable, are unwilling or unable to continue as a clearing system in respect of
such Global Senior Security and a successor clearing system is not appointed by the Issuers within
120 days of such notice; (iii) DTC so requests following a Default under the Senior Notes Indenture
(in which case such Senior Notes may be exchanged in whole but not in part); or (iv) the Issuers,
at their option, notify the Trustee in writing that they elect to issue Definitive Securities.



          (b) Any Global Senior Security that is transferable to the beneficial owners thereof pursuant
to this Section 2.4 shall be surrendered by the custodian for DTC or the Common Depositary, as
applicable, to the Registrar located at its principal corporate trust office, to be so transferred,
in whole or from time to time in part, without charge, and the Registrar shall authenticate and
deliver, upon such transfer of each portion of such Global Senior Security, an equal aggregate
principal amount of Definitive Securities of authorized denominations. Any

this Section 2.4 shall be executed, authenticated and delivered only in minimum denominations of
$100,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof and registered in such names as the
custodian of DTC, shall direct. Any Definitive Security delivered in exchange for an interest in
the Senior Notes Transfer Restricted Security shall, except as otherwise provided by Section 2.3(d)

          (c) Subject to the provisions of Sections 2.4(d) hereof, the registered Holder of a Global
Senior Security shall be entitled to grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including
Agent Members and Persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action which a
Holder is entitled to take under the Senior Notes Indenture or the Senior Notes.



          (d) In the event of the occurrence of one of the events specified in Section 2.4(a) or 2.4(b)
hereof, the Issuers shall promptly make available to the Registrar a reasonable supply of
Definitive Securities in definitive, fully registered form without interest coupons. In the event
that such Definitive Securities are not issued, the Issuers expressly acknowledge, with respect to
the right of any Holder to pursue a remedy pursuant to Section 6.05 of the Senior Notes Indenture,
the right of any beneficial owner of Senior Notes to pursue such remedy with respect to the portion
of the Global Senior Security that represents such beneficial owner’s Senior Notes as if such
Definitive Securities had been issued.

to which interest has been paid or provided for or, if no interest has been paid or provided for,
from August 9, 2011 until the principal hereof is due. Interest shall be computed on the basis of
a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. The Issuers shall pay interest on overdue

          Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon (the “Trustee”) shall act as Trustee, Principal Paying
Agent (“Principal Paying Agent”), Transfer Agent (“Transfer Agent”) and Registrar (the
“Registrar”). The Issuers may appoint and change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice.
The Issuers or BP I or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent (other than with respect to
Global Senior Securities) or Registrar.



4. Indenture




          The Issuers issued the Senior Notes under an Indenture dated as of August 9, 2011 (the “Senior
Notes Indenture”), among the Issuers, the Trustee, the Principal Paying Agent, the Transfer Agent
and the Registrar. The terms of the Senior Notes include those stated in the Senior Notes
Indenture. Terms defined in the Senior Notes Indenture and not defined herein have the meanings
ascribed thereto in the Senior Notes Indenture. The Senior Notes are subject to all terms and
provisions of the Senior Notes Indenture, and the Holders (as defined in the Senior Notes
Indenture) are referred to the Senior Notes Indenture for a statement of such terms and provisions.




          The Senior Notes are senior obligations of the Issuers. This Senior Note is one of the
Original Senior Notes referred to in the Senior Notes Indenture. The Senior Notes include the
Original Senior Notes and any Additional Senior Notes. The Original Senior Notes and any
Additional Senior Notes are treated as a single class of securities under the Senior Notes
Indenture. The Senior Notes Indenture imposes certain limitations on the ability of the Issuers,
BP I, BP II and the Restricted Subsidiaries to, among other things, make certain Investments and
other Restricted Payments, pay dividends and other distributions, incur Indebtedness, enter into
consensual restrictions upon the payment of certain dividends and distributions by such Restricted
Subsidiaries, enter into or permit certain transactions with Affiliates, create or incur Liens and
make Asset Sales. The Senior Notes Indenture also imposes limitations on the ability of the
Issuers and the Senior Note Guarantors to consolidate or merge with or into any other Person or
convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of its property. The Senior Notes Indenture
also imposes limitations on the ability of the Issuers to undertake certain activities.




          To the extent any provision of the Senior Notes conflict with the express provisions of the
Senior Notes Indenture, the provisions of the Senior Notes Indenture shall govern and be
controlling.



5. Optional Redemption




          Except as set forth in this Section 5, Section 6 and Section 25 below, the Senior Notes shall
not be redeemable at the option of the Issuers prior to August 15, 2015. Thereafter, the Issuers
may redeem the Senior Notes at their option, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time,
upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice mailed by first-class mail to each
holder’s registered address (or otherwise delivered in accordance with applicable DTC procedures),
at the following redemption prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount), plus accrued
and unpaid interest and additional interest, if any, to the redemption date (subject to the right
of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant






A-7









 







interest payment date), if redeemed during the 12-month period commencing on August 15 of the
years set forth below. Without limiting the Issuers’ obligations under the Senior Notes Indenture,
the Issuers may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and the performance of
the Issuers’ obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.




	 	 	 	 	 
	Period	 	Redemption Price	 
	2015
	 	 	104.938	%
	2016
	 	 	102.469	%
	2017 and thereafter
	 	 	100.000	%






          In addition, from and after the Escrow Release Date, at any time and from time to time prior
to August 15, 2015, the Issuers may redeem the Senior Notes at their option, in whole or in part,
upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice mailed by first-class mail to each
holder’s registered address (or otherwise delivered in accordance with applicable DTC procedures),
at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Senior Notes redeemed plus the
Applicable Premium (as calculated by the Issuers or on behalf of the Issuers by such person as the
Issuers shall designate) as of, and accrued and unpaid interest and additional interest, if any,
to, the applicable redemption date (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant
record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date). Without limiting the
Issuers’ obligations under the Senior Notes Indenture, the Issuers may provide in such notice that
payment of the redemption price and the performance of the Issuers’ obligations with respect to
such redemption may be performed by another Person.




          Notwithstanding the foregoing, from and after the Escrow Release Date, at any time and from
time to time prior to August 15, 2014, the Issuers may at their option redeem in the aggregate up
to 35% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes (calculated after giving
effect to any issuance of any Additional Senior Notes) with the net cash proceeds of one or more
Equity Offerings (1) by BP I or (2) any direct or indirect parent of BP I, in each case to the
extent the net cash proceeds thereof are contributed to the common equity capital of BP I or any of
its Subsidiaries or used to purchase Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) of any such
entity from it, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount thereof) of
109.875%, plus accrued and unpaid interest and additional interest, if any, to the redemption date
(subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on
the relevant interest payment date); provided, however, that at least 65% of the original aggregate
principal amount of the Senior Notes (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of any
Additional Senior Notes) remain outstanding after each such redemption; provided further, however,
that such redemption shall occur within 90 days after the date on which any such Equity Offering is
consummated upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice mailed to each holder of Senior
Notes being redeemed and otherwise in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Senior Notes
Indenture.




          Notice of any redemption upon any Equity Offering may be given prior to the completion
thereof, and any such redemption or notice may, at the Issuers’ discretion, be subject to one or
more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of the related Equity
Offering. Without limiting the Issuers’ obligations under the Senior Notes Indenture, the






A-8









 







Issuers may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and the performance of
the Issuers’ obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.



6. Redemption for Taxation Reasons




          The Issuers may redeem the Senior Notes, at their option, in whole, but not in part, at any
time from and after the Escrow Release Date upon giving not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’
prior notice (which notice will be irrevocable) to the noteholders mailed by first-class mail to
each holder’s registered address (or otherwise delivered in accordance with applicable DTC
procedures) at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with
accrued and unpaid interest and additional interest, if any, to the date fixed for redemption (a
“Tax Redemption Date”) (subject to the right of noteholders of record on the relevant record date
to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date) and all Additional Amounts (as
defined in Section 7 below), if any, then due or that will become due on the Tax Redemption Date as
a result of the redemption or otherwise, if any, if the Issuers determine in good faith that, as a
result of:




          (1) any change in, or amendment to, the law or treaties (or any regulations, protocols or
rulings promulgated thereunder) of a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (as defined in Section 7 below)
affecting taxation; or




          (2) any change in official position regarding the application, administration or
interpretation of such laws, treaties, protocols, regulations or rulings (including a holding,
judgment or order by a government agency or court of competent jurisdiction) (each of the foregoing
in clauses (1) and (2), a “Change in Tax Law”),



any Payor (as defined in Section 7 below), with respect to the Senior Notes or a Senior Note
Guarantee is, or on the next date on which any amount would be payable in respect of the Senior
Notes would be, required to pay any Additional Amounts, and such obligation cannot be avoided by
taking reasonable measures available to such Payor (including the appointment of a new Paying Agent
or, where such payment would be reasonable, the payment through another Payor); provided that no
Payor shall be required to take any measures that in the Issuers’ good faith determination would
result in the imposition on such person of any legal or regulatory burden or the incurrence by such
person of additional costs, or would otherwise result in any adverse consequences to such person.




          In the case of any Payor, the Change in Tax Law must be announced or become effective on or
after the date of the Offering Circular. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such notice of
redemption will be given earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Payor would
be obliged to make such payment of Additional Amounts. Prior to the publication, mailing or
delivery of any notice of redemption of the Senior Notes pursuant to the foregoing, the Issuers
will deliver to the Trustee (a) an Officers’ Certificate stating that they are entitled to effect
such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to
their right so to redeem have been satisfied and (b) an opinion of an independent tax counsel of
recognized standing to the effect that the Payor would be obligated to pay Additional Amounts as a
result of a Change in Tax Law. The Trustee will accept such Officers’ Certificate






A-9









 







and opinion as sufficient evidence of the satisfaction of the conditions precedent described
above, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on the noteholders.




          Subject to the terms of the applicable redemption notice, Senior Notes called for redemption
become due on the date fixed for redemption. On and after the redemption date, interest ceases to
accrue on Senior Notes or portions of them called for redemption.




          The foregoing provisions will apply mutatis mutandis to the laws and official positions of any
jurisdiction in which any successor to a Payor is organized or otherwise considered to be a
resident for tax purposes or any political subdivision or taxing authority or agency thereof or
therein. The foregoing provisions will survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of the
Senior Notes Indenture.



7. Withholding Taxes




          All payments made by any Issuer or any Senior Note Guarantor or any successor in interest to
any of the foregoing (each, a “Payor”) on or with respect to the Senior Notes or any Senior Note
Guarantee will be made without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any Taxes unless
such withholding or deduction is required by law; provided, however that a Payor, in any case, may
withhold from any interest payment made on the Senior Notes to or for the benefit of any person who
is not a “United States person,” as such term is defined for U.S. federal income tax purposes, U.S.
federal withholding tax, and pay such withheld amounts to the Internal Revenue Service, unless such
person provides documentation to such Payor such that an exemption from U.S. federal withholding
tax would apply to such payment if interest on the Senior Notes were treated as income from sources
within the U.S. for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If any deduction or withholding for, or on
account of, any Taxes imposed or levied by or on behalf of:





(1) any jurisdiction (other than the United States or any political subdivision or
governmental authority thereof or therein having power to tax) from or through which
payment on the Senior Notes or any Senior Note Guarantee is made by such Payor, or
any political subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein having the
power to tax; or




(2) any other jurisdiction (other than the United States or any political
subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein having the power to tax) in
which a Payor that actually makes a payment on the Senior Notes or its Senior Note
Guarantee is organized or otherwise considered to be a resident for tax purposes, or
any political subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein having the
power to tax,


(each of clause (1) and (2), a “Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction”), will at any time be required from
any payments made with respect to the Senior Notes or any Senior Note Guarantee, including payments
of principal, redemption price, interest or premium, if any, the Payor will pay (together with such
payments) such additional amounts (the “Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary in order that the
net amounts received in respect of such payments by the noteholders or the Trustee, as the case may
be, after such withholding or deduction (including any such deduction






A-10









 







or withholding from such Additional Amounts), will not be less than the amounts that would have
been received in respect of such payments on the Senior Notes or the Senior Note Guarantees in the
absence of such withholding or deduction; provided, however, that no such Additional Amounts will
be payable for or on account of:





(1) any Taxes that would not have been so imposed or levied but for the existence of
any present or former connection between the relevant noteholder (or between a
fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder of, or possessor of power
over the relevant noteholder, if such noteholder is an estate, nominee, trust,
partnership, limited liability company or corporation) and the Relevant Taxing
Jurisdiction (including being a citizen or resident or national of, or carrying on a
business or maintaining a permanent establishment in, or being physically present
in, the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction) but excluding, in each case, any connection
arising solely from the acquisition, ownership or holding of such Senior Note or the
receipt of any payment in respect thereof;




(2) any Taxes that would not have been so imposed or levied if the holder of the
Senior Note had complied with a reasonable request in writing of the Payor (such
request being made at a time that would enable such holder acting reasonably to
comply with that request) to make a declaration of nonresidence or any other claim
or filing or satisfy any certification, information or reporting requirement for
exemption from, or reduction in the rate of, withholding to which it is entitled
(provided that such declaration of nonresidence or other claim, filing or
requirement is required by the applicable law, treaty, regulation or administrative
practice of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction as a precondition to exemption from the
requirement to deduct or withhold all or a part of any such Taxes);




(3) any Taxes that are payable otherwise than by withholding from a payment of the
principal of, premium, if any, or interest under the Senior Notes or any Senior Note
Guarantee;




(4) any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, excise, transfer, personal property or
similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge;




(5) any Taxes that are required to be deducted or withheld on a payment pursuant to
the Directive or any law implementing, or introduced in order to conform to, the
Directive;




(6) except in the case of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Payor,
any Taxes imposed in connection with a Senior Note presented for payment by or on
behalf of a noteholder or beneficial owner who would have been able to avoid such
Tax by presenting the relevant Senior Note to, or otherwise accepting payment from,
another paying agent in a member state of the European Union; or




(7) any combination of the above.



          Such Additional Amounts will also not be payable (x) if the payment could have been made
without such deduction or withholding if the beneficiary of the payment had






A-11









 







presented the Senior Note for payment (where presentation is required) within 30 days after
the relevant payment was first made available for payment to the noteholder or (y) where, had the
beneficial owner of the Senior Note been the holder of the Senior Note, such beneficial owner would
not have been entitled to payment of Additional Amounts by reason of any of clauses (1) to (7)
inclusive above.




          The Payor will (i) make any required withholding or deduction and (ii) remit the full amount
deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing authority of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction in
accordance with applicable law. Upon request, the Payor will use all reasonable efforts to obtain
certified copies of tax receipts evidencing the payment of any Taxes so deducted or withheld from
each relevant taxing authority of each Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction imposing such Taxes and will
provide such certified copies to the Trustee. If, notwithstanding the efforts of such Payor to
obtain such receipts, the same are not obtainable, such Payor will provide the Trustee with other
evidence reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Holder.




          If any Payor will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts under or with respect to any payment
made on the Senior Notes, at least 30 days prior to the date of such payment, the Payor will
deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating the fact that Additional Amounts will be
payable and the amount so payable and such other information necessary to enable the Paying Agent
to pay Additional Amounts to noteholders on the relevant payment date (unless such obligation to
pay Additional Amounts arises less than 45 days prior to the relevant payment date, in which case
the Payor shall deliver such Officers’ Certificate and such other information as promptly as
practicable after the date that is 30 days prior to the payment date, but no less than five (5)
Business Days prior thereto, and otherwise in accordance with the requirements of DTC).




          Wherever in the Senior Notes Indenture, the Senior Notes, or any Senior Note Guarantee there
is mentioned, in any context:





(1) the payment of principal,




(2) redemption prices or purchase prices in connection with a redemption or purchase
of Senior Notes,




(3) interest, or




(4) any other amount payable on or with respect to any of the Senior Notes or any
Senior Note Guarantee,


such reference shall be deemed to include payment of Additional Amounts as described under this
Section 7 to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in
respect thereof.




          The Payor will pay any present or future stamp, court or documentary Taxes, or any other
excise, property or similar Taxes, charges or levies that arise in any jurisdiction from the
execution, delivery, registration or enforcement of any Senior Notes, the Senior Notes Indenture,
or any other document or instrument in relation thereto (other than a transfer of the Senior Notes)
excluding any such Taxes, charges or similar levies imposed by any jurisdiction






A-12









 







that is not a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, and the Payor agrees to indemnify the noteholders
and the Trustee for any such Taxes paid by such noteholders. The foregoing obligations will
survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of the Senior Notes Indenture and will apply
mutatis mutandis to any jurisdiction in which any successor to a Payor is organized or otherwise
considered to be a resident for tax purposes or any political subdivision or taxing authority or
agency thereof or therein.



8. Sinking Fund




          Except as set forth in Section 3.09 of the Senior Notes Indenture and Section 25 below, the
Issuers are not required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to
the Senior Notes.



9. Notice of Redemption




          Notice of redemption shall be mailed by first-class mail (or otherwise delivered in accordance
with applicable DTC procedures) upon not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days’ prior notice to
each Holder’s registered address. Senior Notes in denominations of $100,000 or less may be
redeemed in whole but not in part. The Trustee may select for redemption portions of the principal
of Senior Notes that have denominations larger than $100,000. Senior Notes and portions thereof
selected by the Trustee shall be in principal amounts of $100,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000 in
excess thereof, except that if all of the Senior Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed, the entire
outstanding amount of Senior Notes held by such Holder, even if not in a multiple of $1,000 shall
be redeemed. If money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued and unpaid interest
and premiums (if any) on all Senior Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the redemption
date is deposited with a Paying Agent on or before the redemption date and certain other conditions
are satisfied, on and after such date interest ceases to accrue on such Senior Notes (or such
portions thereof) called for redemption.





	10.	 	Repurchase of Senior Notes at the Option of the Holders upon Change of Control and Asset
Sales





          Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each Holder will have the right, subject to
certain conditions specified in the Senior Notes Indenture, to require the Issuers to repurchase
all or any part of such Holder’s Senior Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the
principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase
(subject to the right of the Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due
on the relevant interest payment date), as provided in, and subject to the terms of, the Senior
Notes Indenture.




          In accordance with Section 4.06 of the Senior Notes Indenture, the Issuers shall be required
to offer to purchase Senior Notes upon the occurrence of certain events in connection with certain
Asset Sales.



11. Guarantees




          From and after the Escrow Release Date, each of the Senior Note Guarantors will jointly and
severally, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantee on a senior basis to the extent






A-13









 







set forth in the Senior Notes Indenture (i) the full and punctual payment when due of all
obligations of the Issuers under the Senior Notes Indenture and this Senior Note and (ii) the full
and punctual performance within applicable grace periods of all other obligations of the Issuers.



12. [Reserved.]



13. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange




          The Senior Notes are in registered form, without coupons, in minimum denominations of $100,000
and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. A Holder shall register the transfer of or
exchange of Senior Notes in accordance with the Senior Notes Indenture. Upon any transfer or
exchange, the Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish
appropriate endorsements or transfer documents, furnish information regarding the account of the
transferee at DTC, where appropriate, furnish certain certificates and opinions, and pay any taxes,
duties and governmental charges in connection with such transfer or exchange. The Registrar need
not register the transfer of or exchange any Senior Notes selected for redemption (except, in the
case of a Senior Note to be redeemed in part, the portion of the Senior Note not to be redeemed) or
to transfer or exchange any Senior Notes for a period of 15 days prior to a selection of Senior
Notes to be redeemed.



14. Persons Deemed Owners




          The registered Holder of this Senior Note shall be treated as the owner of it for all
purposes.



15. Unclaimed Money




          If money for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee
and a Paying Agent shall pay the money back to the Issuers at its written request unless an
abandoned property law designates another Person. After any such payment, the Holders entitled to
the money must look to the Issuers for payment as general creditors and the Trustee and a Paying
Agent shall have no further liability with respect to such monies.



16. Discharge and Defeasance




          Subject to certain conditions, the Issuers at any time may terminate some of or all their
obligations under the Senior Notes and the Senior Notes Indenture if the Issuers, among other
things, deposit with the Trustee cash in US Dollars, for the payment of principal, premium, if any,
and interest on the Senior Notes to redemption or maturity, as the case may be.



17. Amendment; Waiver




          Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Senior Notes Indenture, (i) the Senior Notes
Indenture and the Senior Notes may be amended with the consent of the Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the outstanding Senior Notes (voting as a single class) and (ii) any past
default or compliance with any provisions may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of
a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Senior Notes. Subject to certain exceptions set
forth in the Senior Notes Indenture, without the consent of any Holder, the Issuers






A-14









 







and the Trustee may amend the Senior Notes Indenture and the Senior Notes: (i) to cure any
ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency; (ii) to give effect to any provision of the
Senior Notes Indenture (including the release of any Senior Note Guarantee in accordance with the
terms of Section 10.06 of the Senior Notes Indenture); (iii) to comply with Article V of the Senior
Notes Indenture; (iv) to provide for the assumption by a Successor Company of the obligations of
any Issuer under the Senior Notes Indenture and the Senior Notes, to provide for the assumption by
Midco of the obligations of RGHL under the Senior Notes Indenture and the Senior Notes or to
provide for the assumption by a Successor Senior Note Guarantor of the obligations of a Senior Note
Guarantor under the Senior Notes Indenture and its Senior Note Guarantee; (v) to provide for
uncertificated Senior Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Senior Notes (provided that
the uncertificated Senior Notes are issued in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of the
Code); (vi) to add a Senior Note Guarantee with respect to the Senior Notes or to add collateral
for the benefit of the Senior Notes; (vii) to add to the covenants of BP I, BP II or any Senior
Note Guarantor for the benefit of the Holders or to surrender any right or power conferred upon BP
I or BP II; (xi) to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder; (xii)
to evidence and give effect to the acceptance and appointment under the Senior Notes Indenture of a
successor Trustee; (xiii) to provide for the accession of the Trustee to any instrument in
connection with the Senior Notes; (xiv) to make certain changes to the Senior Notes Indenture to
provide for the issuance of Additional Senior Notes; or (xv) to comply with any requirement of the
SEC in connection with the qualification of the Senior Notes Indenture under the Trust Indenture
Act, if such qualification is required.



18. Defaults and Remedies




          If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default related to (x) certain events of
bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization with respect to BP I, BP II, an Issuer or any Restricted
Subsidiary that, directly or indirectly, owns or holds any Equity Interest of an Issuer or (y)
Section 6.01(c) of the Senior Notes Indenture with respect to BP I’s, BP II’s or any Restricted
Subsidiary’s failure to comply with its obligations under Section 4.13(a) of the Senior Notes
Indenture) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount
of outstanding Senior Notes by notice to the Trustee and the Issuers may declare the principal of,
premium, if any, and accrued but unpaid interest (including additional interest, if any) on all the
Senior Notes to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal and interest will be
due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default relating to (i) certain events of bankruptcy,
insolvency or reorganization with respect to BP I, BP II, an Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary
that, directly or indirectly, owns or holds any Equity Interest of an Issuer or (ii) Section
6.01(c) of the Senior Notes Indenture with respect to BP I’s, BP II’s or any Restricted
Subsidiary’s failure to comply with its obligations under Sections 4.13(a) of the Senior Notes
Indenture occurs, the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on all the Senior Notes will
become immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee
or any holders. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Senior Notes by notice to
the Trustee may rescind an acceleration and its consequences if the rescission would not conflict
with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default have been cured or waived except
nonpayment of principal or interest that has become due solely because of acceleration. No such
rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto.







A-15









 








          Subject to provisions of the Senior Notes Indenture relating to the duties of the Trustee, in
case an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to
exercise any of the rights or powers under the Senior Notes Indenture at the request or direction
of any of the holders unless such holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security
satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense. Except to enforce the right to receive
payment of principal, premium (if any) or interest when due, no holder may pursue any remedy with
respect to the Senior Notes Indenture or the Senior Notes unless (i) such Holder has previously
given the Trustee notice that an Event of Default is continuing, (ii) Holders of at least 25% in
principal amount of the outstanding Senior Notes have requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy,
(iii) such Holders have offered the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it against any
loss, liability or expense, (iv) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days
after the receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity and (v) the Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the outstanding Senior Notes have not given the Trustee a direction
inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period. Subject to certain restrictions, the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of outstanding Senior Notes are given the right to direct
the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or
of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. The Trustee, however, may refuse to
follow any direction that conflicts with law or the Senior Notes Indenture or that the Trustee
determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder or that would involve the
Trustee in personal liability. Prior to taking any action under the Senior Notes Indenture, the
Trustee will be entitled to indemnification satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all
losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.



19. Trustee Dealings with the Issuer




          The Trustee under the Senior Notes Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may
become the owner or pledgee of Senior Notes and may otherwise collect obligations owed to it by the
Issuers or their Affiliates and may otherwise deal with the Issuers or their Affiliates with the
same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.



20. No Recourse Against Others




          No (i) director, officer, employee, manager, incorporator or holder of any Equity Interests in
BP I, BP II or any Issuer or any direct or indirect parent corporation or (ii) director, officer,
employee or manager of a Senior Note Guarantor, will have any liability for any obligations of the
Issuers under the Senior Notes, the Senior Notes Indenture, or for any claim based on, in respect
of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation; provided, however, the foregoing shall not
in any manner affect the liability of a Senior Note Guarantor with respect to its Senior Note
Guarantee. Each holder of Senior Notes by accepting a Senior Note waives and releases all such
liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Senior Notes.
The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws.







A-16









 







21. Authentication




          This Senior Note shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee (or an
authenticating agent) manually signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this
Senior Note.



22. 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 rights of
survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (=custodian), and U/G/M/A (=Uniform Gift to Minors
Act).



23. Governing Law




          THIS SENIOR NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE
OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT NEW
YORK JUDGMENTS ARE NOT ENFORCEABLE IN AUSTRIA.



24. Agreed Tax Treatment




          The Issuers agree, and by acquiring an interest in the Senior Notes each beneficial owner of a
Senior Note agrees to treat for U.S. federal income tax purposes the Senior Notes as debt of the
sole owner of the US Issuer I until the Escrow Release Date, and after the Escrow Release Date as
debt of the sole owner of the Reynolds Group Issuer LLC and interest payments on the Senior Notes
as U.S. source interest; provided, however, that this agreement shall cease to apply if the Issuers
(i) determine, after taking action that is permissible under the Senior Notes Indenture, that the
aforementioned allocation of debt and interest payments is no longer accurate as a result of the
changed circumstances, and (ii) promptly notify holders of such determination by sending
first-class mail to each holder’s registered address (or otherwise completing delivery in
accordance with applicable DTC procedures). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Issuer or any other
Payor may withhold from any interest payment made on any Senior Note to or for the benefit of any
person who is not a “United States person,” as such term is defined for U.S. federal income tax
purposes, U.S. federal withholding tax, and pay such withheld amounts to the Internal Revenue
Service, unless such person provides documentation to such Issuer or other Payor such that an
exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax would apply to such payment if interest on such Senior
Note were treated as income from sources within the U.S. for U.S. federal income tax purposes.



25. Special Mandatory Redemption




          As set forth in Section 3.09 of the Senior Notes Indenture, if (i) the Graham Packaging
Acquisition Document is terminated or (ii) the Escrow Release Date has not occurred on or prior to
March 20, 2012, the Escrow Issuers shall redeem the Senior Notes at the Escrow Redemption Price on
the Special Mandatory Redemption Date (the “Special Redemption Provision”). If the Special
Redemption Provision is triggered, the Escrow Issuers will cause the






A-17









 







notice of special mandatory redemption to be delivered to each Holder and the Senior Notes shall be
redeemed pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement. The obligation to redeem the Senior Notes
pursuant to the Special Redemption Provision may not be waived or modified without the written
consent of each Holder. Failure to redeem the Senior Notes when required pursuant to the Special
Redemption Provision will constitute an Event of Default with respect to the Senior Notes.



26. Holders’ Compliance with Senior Notes Registration Rights Agreement.




          Each Holder of a Security, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges and agrees to the provisions of
the Senior Notes Registration Rights Agreement, including the obligations of the Holders with
respect to a registration and the indemnification of the Issuers to the extent provided therein.



27. CUSIPs; ISINs




          The Issuers have caused CUSIPs and ISINs to be printed on the Senior Notes and have directed
the Trustee to use CUSIPs and ISINs in notices of redemption as a convenience to the Holders. No
representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Senior Notes or
as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other
identification numbers placed thereon.




          The Issuers shall furnish to any Holder of Senior Notes upon written request and without
charge to the Holder a copy of the Senior Notes Indenture which has in it the text of this Senior
Note. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the
Senior Notes Indenture.
