case may be (and the application of the proceeds thereof), occurred on the first day of the Four-Quarter Period; and 
  
 (2) any Asset Sale or other disposition or Asset Acquisition (including, without limitation, any Asset Acquisition giving rise to the need

Flow (including any pro forma expense and cost reductions calculated on a basis consistent with Regulation S-X under the Exchange Act) associated with any such Asset Acquisition) occurring during the Four-Quarter Period or at any time subsequent to
the last day of the Four-Quarter Period and on or prior to the Transaction Date, as if such Asset Sale or Asset Acquisition or other disposition (including the incurrence of, or assumption or liability for, any such Indebtedness or Acquired
Indebtedness) occurred on the first day of the Four-Quarter Period. 
  
 If the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary directly or indirectly guarantees Indebtedness of a third Person, the preceding sentence shall give effect to the incurrence of such guaranteed Indebtedness as if the Issuer

 Upon the occurrence of the Exchange Offer in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement, Exchange Notes issued by the Issuer shall
be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A (but shall not contain paragraph 9 thereof). 
  
 The terms and provisions contained in the Notes shall constitute, and are expressly made, a part of this Indenture and, to the extent
applicable, the Issuer, any Guarantors and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and agree to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision of the Notes conflicts with
the provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling. 
  
 The Notes may be presented for registration of transfer and exchange at the offices of the Registrar. 
  
 SECTION 2.03 Execution and Authentication. 
  
 One Officer shall sign the Notes for the Issuer by manual or
facsimile signature. 
  
 If an Officer whose
signature is on a Note was an Officer at the time of such execution but no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note, the Note shall be valid nevertheless. 
  
 At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Issuer may deliver
Notes executed by the Issuer to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Request for authentication and delivery of such Notes, and the Trustee, in accordance with such Company Request, shall authenticate and deliver such Notes.

  

 32 








 No Note shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory
for any purpose unless there appears on such Note a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate upon any Note shall be conclusive evidence, and the
only evidence, that such Note has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Note shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Issuer, and the Issuer shall deliver
such Note to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 2.12, for all purposes of this Indenture such Note shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this
Indenture. 
  
 Upon prior notice to, and approval
by (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), the Issuer, the Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent to authenticate the Notes. Unless otherwise provided in the appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate the Notes whenever
the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with the Issuer and Affiliates of the Issuer. Each Paying
Agent is designated as an authenticating agent for purposes of this Indenture. 
  
 SECTION 2.04 Registrar and Paying Agent. 
  
 The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency (which shall be located in the Borough of Manhattan in The City of New York, State of New
York) where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the “Registrar”), and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (the “Paying Agent”) and an office or agency where
notices and demands to or upon the Issuer, if any, in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Registrar shall keep a register (the “Register”) of the names and address of the Holders and the Notes and of their
transfer and exchange. The Issuer may have one or more additional Paying Agents. The term “Paying Agent” includes any additional Paying Agent. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Issuer or
any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar. 
  
 The Issuer shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement, which shall incorporate applicable provisions of the TIA, with any Agent that is not a party to this Indenture. The agreement shall implement the provisions
of this Indenture that relate to such Agent. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of any such Agent. If the Issuer fails to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, or fails to give the foregoing notice, the Trustee shall act as
such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation in accordance with Section 7.07. 
  
 The Issuer initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar, Paying Agent and Agent for service of notices and demand (subject to
Section 11.09) in connection with the Notes and this Indenture. 
  

 33 








 SECTION 2.05 Paying Agent To Hold Money in Trust. 
  
 Each Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of the
Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of or premium or interest on the Notes (whether such money has been paid to it by the Issuer or any other obligor on the Notes or any Guarantor), and the Issuer
and the Paying Agent shall notify the Trustee in writing of any default by the Issuer (or any other obligor on the Notes or any Guarantor) in making any such payment. Money held in trust by the Paying Agent need not be segregated except as required
by law and in no event shall the Paying Agent be liable for any interest on any money received by it hereunder. The Issuer at any time may require the Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and account for any funds disbursed and
the Trustee may at any time during the continuance of any Event of Default specified in clause (1) or (2) of Section 6.01 hereof, upon written request to the Paying Agent, require such Paying Agent to pay forthwith all money so held
by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed. Upon making such payment, the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the Trustee. 
  
 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 the Holders. Such list shall be in written form or any other form capable of being converted into written form within a reasonable time. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee at least five Business
Days before each Interest Payment 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 the Holders. The Trustee may rely on
the lists of Holders provided by the Issuer. 
  
 SECTION 2.07
Transfer and Exchange. 
  
 Subject to
Sections 2.16 and 2.17, when Notes are presented to the Registrar with a request from the Holder of such Notes to register a transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Notes of other authorized denominations, the Registrar
shall register the transfer as requested. Every Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Registrar,
duly executed by the Holder thereof or its attorneys duly authorized in writing. To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Issuer shall issue and execute and the Trustee shall authenticate new Notes evidencing such transfer or exchange
at the Registrar’s request in accordance with Section 2.03 hereof. No service charge shall be made to the Holder for any registration of transfer or exchange. The Issuer may require from the Holder payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
transfer taxes or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation to a transfer or exchange, but this provision shall not apply to any exchange pursuant to Section 2.11, 3.06, 4.10, 4.15 or 8.05 (in which events the Issuer shall be
responsible for the payment of such taxes). The Registrar shall not be required to exchange or register a transfer of (i) any Note for a period of 15 days immediately preceding the mailing of a 

  

 34 








 
notice of redemption of Notes to be redeemed, (ii) of any Note selected, called or being called for redemption except the unredeemed portion of any Note
being redeemed in part, or (iii) any Note between a record date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date. 
  
 Any Holder of a Global Note shall, by acceptance of such Global Note, agree that transfers of the beneficial interests in such Global Note
may be effected only through a book entry system maintained by the Holder of such Global Note (or its agent), and that ownership of a beneficial interest in a Global Note shall be required to be reflected in a book entry. 
  
 Each Holder of a Note agrees to indemnify the Issuer and the
Trustee against any liability that may result from the transfer, exchange or assignment of such Holder’s Note in violation of any provision of this Indenture and/or applicable U.S. federal or state securities laws. 
  
 Neither the Trustee nor the Registrar shall have any duty to
monitor the Issuer’s compliance with or have any responsibility with respect to the Issuer’s compliance with any U.S. federal or state securities laws. 
  
 SECTION 2.08 Replacement Notes. 
  
 If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Registrar or the Trustee, or if the Holder of a Note claims that
the Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note if (a) the Holder of such Note furnishes to the Issuer and the Trustee evidence reasonably acceptable to them of
the ownership and the destruction, loss or theft of such Note and (b) the requirements of Section 8-405 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code (or applicable provision at the time of such replacement) are met. If required by the Trustee
or the Issuer, an indemnity bond shall be posted, sufficient in the judgment of both to protect the Issuer, any Guarantors, the Trustee or any Paying Agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if such Note is replaced. The Issuer may charge
such Holder for the Issuer’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements) in replacing such Note and the Trustee may charge the Issuer for the Trustee’s expenses (including,
without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements) in replacing such Note. Every replacement Note shall constitute a contractual obligation of the Issuer. 
  
 In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note has become, or shall become within 30 days, due
and payable, the Issuer in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay such Note. 
  
 SECTION 2.09 Outstanding Notes. 
  
 The Notes outstanding at any time are all Notes that have been authenticated by the Trustee except for (a) those cancelled by it, (b) those delivered to it for cancellation, (c) to the extent set forth
in Sections 9.01 and 9.02, on or after the date on which the conditions set forth in Section 9.01 or 9.02 have been satisfied, those Notes theretofore authenticated and delivered by the Trustee hereunder and (d) those described in
this Section 2.09 as not outstanding. Subject to 

  

 35 








 
Section 2.10, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or one of its Affiliates holds the Note. 
  
 If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.08, it
ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a bona fide purchaser in whose hands such Note is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer. 
  
 If the Paying Agent (other than the Issuer, a Subsidiary or
an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, in its capacity as such, on any Maturity Date or on any optional redemption date, money sufficient to pay all accrued interest and principal with respect to the Notes payable on that date and is not prohibited
from paying such money to the Holders thereof pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, then on and after that date such Notes cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue. 
  
 SECTION 2.10 Treasury Notes. 
  
 In determining whether the Holders of the required principal
amount of Notes have concurred in any declaration of acceleration or notice of default or direction, waiver or consent or any amendment, modification or other change to this Indenture, Notes owned by the Issuer or any Person directly or indirectly
controlling or controlled by or under common control with the Issuer shall be disregarded as though they were not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction,
waiver or consent or any amendment, modification or other change to this Indenture, only Notes as to which the Trustee has received an Officers’ Certificate of the Issuer stating that such Notes are so owned shall be so disregarded. Notes so
owned which have been pledged in good faith shall not be disregarded if the pledgee established to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right so to act with respect to the Notes and that the pledgee is not the Issuer, a Guarantor, any
other obligor on the Notes or any of their respective Affiliates. 
  
 SECTION 2.11 Temporary Notes. 
  
 Until definitive Notes are prepared and ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Notes which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced in any authorized
denomination. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of definitive Notes but may have insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Notes and that the Issuer shall have
identified to the Trustee in writing. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes. Until such exchange, temporary Notes shall be entitled to the same
rights, benefits and privileges as definitive Notes. 
  

 36 








 SECTION 2.12 Cancellation. 
  
 The Issuer at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent
shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall
destroy canceled Notes and deliver a certificate of destruction thereof to the Issuer unless the Issuer directs the Trustee in writing to deliver canceled Notes to the Issuer. The Issuer may not reissue or resell, or issue new Notes to replace,
Notes that the Issuer has redeemed or paid, or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 
  
 SECTION 2.13 Defaulted Interest. 
  
 If the Issuer defaults on a payment of interest on the Notes, it shall pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner, plus (to the
extent permitted by law) any interest payable on the defaulted interest, in accordance with paragraph 1 of the Notes, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, which date shall be at least five Business Days prior to the
payment date. The Issuer shall fix such special record date and payment date in a manner satisfactory to the Trustee. At least 10 days before such special record date, the Issuer shall mail to each Holder a notice that states the special record
date, the payment date and the amount of defaulted interest, and interest payable on defaulted interest, if any, to be paid. The Issuer may make payment of any defaulted interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements (if
applicable) of any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed and, upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after written notice given by the Issuer to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this sentence, such
manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee. 
  
 SECTION 2.14 CUSIP Number. 
  
 The Issuer in issuing the Notes may use one or more “CUSIP” or “ISIN” numbers, and if so, each such CUSIP or ISIN number shall be included in notices of redemption or exchange as a convenience to Holders; provided
that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP or ISIN number printed in the notice or on the Notes, and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on
the Notes. The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee of any such CUSIP or ISIN number used by the Issuer in connection with the issuance of the Notes and of any change in the CUSIP or ISIN number. 
  
 SECTION 2.15 Deposit of Moneys. 
  
 Prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on each
Interest Payment Date and the Maturity Date, the Issuer shall have deposited with the Paying Agent in immediately available funds money sufficient to make cash payments due on such Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be, in a
timely manner which permits the Trustee to remit payment to 

  

 37 








 
the Holders on such Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be. Except as otherwise provided herein, the principal and interest on Global
Notes shall be payable to DTC or the nominee of DTC, as the case may be, as the sole registered owner and the sole holder of the Global Notes represented thereby. The principal and interest on Physical Notes shall be payable, either in person or by
mail, at the office of the Paying Agent. 
  
 SECTION 2.16
Book-Entry Provisions for Global Notes. 
  
 (a) Rule 144A Notes initially shall be represented by one or more notes in registered, global form without interest coupons (collectively, the “Restricted Global Note”). Regulation S Notes initially shall be represented by
one or more notes in registered, global form without interest coupons (collectively, the “Regulation S Global Note,” and, together with the Restricted Global Note and any other global notes representing Notes, the “Global
Notes”). The Global Notes shall be subject to certain transfer restrictions and shall each bear a legend as set forth in Exhibit C. The Global Notes initially shall (i) be registered in the name of DTC or the nominee of DTC, in
each case, for credit to an account of DTC Agent Members, (ii) be delivered to the Trustee as custodian for DTC and (iii) in the case of the Restricted Global Notes or the Regulation S Global Notes, bear legends as set forth in
Exhibit B. 
  
 Neither members of,
nor direct or indirect participants in, DTC (“DTC Agent Members”) shall have any rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by DTC, or the Trustee as its custodian, or under the Global Notes,
and DTC may be treated by the Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee as the absolute owner of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Issuer, the Trustee
or any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by DTC or impair, as between DTC and DTC Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of
the rights of a Holder of any Note. 
  
 (b)
Transfers of Global Notes shall be limited to transfer of such Global Notes in whole, but not in part, to DTC, its successors or their respective nominees. Interests of beneficial owners in the Global Notes may be transferred or exchanged for
Physical Notes in accordance with the rules and procedures of DTC and the provisions of Section 2.17. In addition, a Global Note shall be exchangeable for Physical Notes if (i) DTC notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to
continue as depository for such Global Note and the Issuer thereupon is unable to locate a qualified successor depository within 90 days of such event, or (ii) the Issuer, in its sole discretion, notifies the Trustee in writing that it
elects to cause the issuance of such Physical Notes. In all cases, Physical Notes delivered in exchange for any Global Note or beneficial interests therein shall be registered in the names, and issued in any approved denominations, requested by or
on behalf of DTC (in accordance with its customary procedures). 
  
 (c) In connection with any transfer or exchange of a portion of the beneficial interest in any Global Note to beneficial owners pursuant to clause (b) of this Section 2.16, the 

  

 38 








 
Registrar shall (if one or more Physical Notes are to be issued) reflect on its books and records the date and a decrease in the principal amount of such
Global Note in an amount equal to the principal amount of the beneficial interest in such Global Note to be transferred, and the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall upon receipt of a written order from the Issuer authenticate and make
available for delivery, one or more Physical Notes of like tenor and amount. 
  
 (d) In connection with the transfer of any Global Note as an entirety to beneficial owners pursuant to clause (b) of this Section 2.16, such Global Note shall be deemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for
cancellation, and the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, to each beneficial owner identified by DTC in writing in exchange for its beneficial interest in such Global Note, an equal aggregate principal amount of
Physical Notes of authorized denominations. 
  
 (e) Any Physical Note delivered in exchange for an interest in a Global Note that is a Restricted Note pursuant to clause (b), (c) or (d) of this Section 2.16 shall, except as otherwise provided by clause (c) of
Section 2.17, bear the Private Placement Legend unless the Issuer determines otherwise in compliance with applicable law. 
  
 (f) Beneficial interests in the Restricted Global Note may be transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in the
Regulation S Global Note only if the transferor first delivers to the Trustee (i) a written certificate to the effect that such transfer is being made in accordance with Rule 903 or 904 of Regulation S or Rule 144 (if available) and
(ii) at the option of the Trustee and the Issuer, an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee and the Issuer to the effect that such transfer is in accordance with Regulation S or Rule 144, as the case may be. 
  
 (g) Any beneficial interest in a Global Note that is
transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in another Global Note shall, upon transfer, cease to be an interest in such Global Note and become an interest in such other Global Note and, accordingly, shall thereafter be
subject to all transfer restrictions and other procedures applicable to beneficial interests in such other Global Note for as long as it remains such an interest. 
  
 (h) The Holder of any Global Note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including DTC Agent
Members and Persons that may hold interests through DTC Agent Members, to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Notes. 
  

 39 








 SECTION 2.17 Special Transfer Provisions. 
  
 (a) Transfers to Non-QIB Institutional Accredited
Investors and Non-U.S. Persons. The following provisions shall apply with respect to the registration of any proposed transfer of a Restricted Note to any Institutional Accredited Investor which is not a QIB or to any Non-U.S. Person:

  
 (i) the Registrar shall register the transfer
of any Note, whether or not such Note bears the Private Placement Legend, if (A) the requested transfer is after the time period referred to in Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act, or such other date as such Note shall be freely
transferable under Rule 144 as certified in an Officers’ Certificate or (B) (1) in the case of a transfer to an Institutional Accredited Investor which is not a QIB (excluding Non-U.S. Persons), the proposed transferee has
delivered to the Registrar and the Issuer a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto and, at the request of the Registrar and the Issuer, an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Registrar and the Issuer to
the effect that such transfer is in accordance with the Securities Act or (2) in the case of a transfer to a Non-U.S. Person (including a QIB), the proposed transferor has delivered to the Registrar and the Issuer a certificate substantially in
the form of Exhibit E hereto and, at the request of the Registrar and the Issuer, an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Registrar or the Issuer to the effect that such transfer is in accordance with the Securities Act;
provided that in the case of any transfer of a Note bearing the Private Placement Legend for a Note not bearing the Private Placement Legend, the Registrar has received an Officers’ Certificate authorizing such transfer and, at the
request of the Registrar and the Issuer, the proposed transferor shall deliver an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Registrar and the Issuer to the effect that such transfer is in accordance with the Securities Act; and 

 
 (ii) if the proposed transferor is a DTC Agent Member
holding a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Note, and the proposed transferee is either a Non-U.S. Person who is receiving a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Note or any Person who requests delivery in the form of
Physical Notes, upon receipt by the Registrar of (A) the documents, if any, required by clause (a)(i) of this Section 2.17 and (B) instructions given in accordance with DTC’s and the Registrar’s procedures, whereupon
(C) the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and a decrease in the principal amount of the Restricted Global Note in an amount equal to the principal amount of the beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Note to be
transferred, and (D) (I) with respect to transfers to a Non-U.S. Person receiving a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Note, the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount
of the Regulation S Global Note in an amount equal to the principal amount of the beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Note transferred or (II) with respect to a Person who requests delivery in the form of Physical Notes, the Issuer
shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery one or more Physical Notes of like tenor and amount. 
  
 (b) Transfers to QIBs. The following provisions shall apply with respect to the registration of any proposed registration of
transfer of a Restricted Note to a QIB (excluding transfers to Non-U.S. Persons): 
  
 (i) (A) if the Restricted Note consists of Physical Notes, the Registrar shall register the transfer if such transfer is being made
by a proposed transferor who has 

  

 40 








 
checked the box provided for on such Holder’s Note stating, or has otherwise advised the Issuer and the Registrar in writing, that the sale has been
made in compliance with the provisions of Rule 144A to a transferee who has signed the certification provided on such Holder’s Note stating, or has otherwise advised the Issuer and the Registrar in writing, that such transferee represents and
warrants that it is purchasing the Note for its own account or an account with respect to which it exercises sole investment discretion and that it and any such account is a QIB within the meaning of Rule 144A, and is aware that the sale to it is
being made in reliance on Rule 144A and acknowledges that it has received such information regarding the Issuer as it has requested pursuant to Rule 144A or has determined not to request such information and that it is aware that the transferor is
relying upon its foregoing representations in order to claim the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A, and (B) if the Restricted Note consists of an interest in the Restricted Global Note, unless otherwise provided in this
Indenture, the transfer of such interest may only be effected through the book-entry system maintained by the Depository; and 
  
 (ii) if the proposed transferee is a DTC Agent Member, and the Notes to be transferred consist of Physical Notes which after transfer are
to be evidenced by an interest in the Restricted Global Note, upon receipt by the Registrar of instructions given in accordance with DTC’s and the Registrar’s procedures, the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an
increase in the principal amount of the Restricted Global Note in an amount equal to the principal amount of the Physical Notes to be transferred, and the Trustee shall cancel the Physical Notes so transferred. 
  
 (c) Private Placement Legend. Upon the registration
of transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes not bearing the Private Placement Legend, the Registrar shall deliver Notes that do not bear the Private Placement Legend. Upon the registration of transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes bearing the
Private Placement Legend, the Registrar shall deliver only Notes that bear the Private Placement Legend unless (i) it has received the Officers’ Certificate required by paragraph (a)(i)(A) of this Section 2.17, (ii) there is
delivered to the Registrar an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer and the Trustee to the effect that neither such legend nor the related restrictions on transfer are required in order to maintain compliance with the provisions
of the Securities Act or (iii) such Note has been sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act. 
  
 (d) General. By its acceptance of any Note bearing the Private Placement Legend, each Holder of such Note acknowledges and agrees
to the restrictions on transfer of such Note set forth in this Indenture and in the Private Placement Legend and further agrees that it shall transfer such Note only as provided in this Indenture. 
  
 The Registrar shall retain for a period of three years,
copies of all letters, notices and other written communications received pursuant to Section 2.16 or this Section 2.17. The 

  

 41 








 
Issuer shall have the right to inspect and make copies of all such letters, notices or other written communications at any reasonable time upon the giving of
reasonable notice to the Registrar. 
  
 SECTION 2.18
Computation of Interest. 
  
 Interest on
the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. 
  
 SECTION 2.19 Issuance of Additional Notes. 
  
 The Issuer shall be entitled to issue Additional Notes under this Indenture which shall have substantially identical terms as the Original
Notes, other than with respect to the date of issuance, issue price, amount of interest payable on the first payment date applicable thereto or upon a registration default as provided under a registration rights agreement related thereto and terms
of optional redemption, if any (and, if such Additional Notes shall be issued in the form of Exchange Notes, other than with respect to transfer restrictions); provided that such issuance shall be made in compliance with Section 4.06.

  
 With respect to any Additional Notes, the
Issuer shall set forth in a resolution of its Board of Directors (or a duly appointed committee thereof) and in an Officers’ Certificate, a copy of each of which shall be delivered to the Trustee, the following information: 
  
 (i) the aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding
immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Notes; 
  
 (ii) the aggregate principal amount of such Additional Notes to be authenticated and delivered pursuant to this Indenture; 
  
 (iii) the issue price and the issue date of such Additional Notes and the amount of interest payable on the first payment date applicable
thereto; and 
  
 (iv) whether such Additional
Notes shall be transfer restricted securities or shall be registered securities issued in the form of Exchange Notes. 
  
 ARTICLE THREE 
  
 REDEMPTION 
  
 SECTION 3.01 Election To Redeem; Notices to Trustee. 
  
 If the Issuer elects to redeem Notes pursuant to Section 3.07 of this Indenture, at least 45 days prior to the Redemption Date (unless a shorter notice shall be agreed to in writing by the Trustee) but not more
than 65 days before the Redemption Date, the Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of the Redemption Date, the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and the redemption price, and deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating
that such redemption 

  

 42 








 
shall comply with the conditions contained in Section 3.07 of this Indenture. Notice given to the Trustee pursuant to this Section 3.01 may not be
revoked after the time that notice is given to Holders pursuant to Section 3.03. 
  
 SECTION 3.02 Selection by Trustee of Notes To Be Redeemed. 
  
 In the event that fewer than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be redeemed, if the Notes are
listed on a national securities exchange, in accordance with the rules of such exchange or, if the Notes are not so listed, either on a pro rata basis, by lot or in such other manner as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate;
provided, however, that if a partial redemption is made with the proceeds of a Qualified Equity Offering, selection of the Notes or portions thereof for redemption shall be made by the Trustee only on a pro rata basis or
on as nearly a pro rata basis as is practicable (subject to DTC procedures), unless such method is otherwise prohibited. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer of the Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of any Notes
selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. The Trustee may select for redemption portions of the principal of the Notes that have denominations larger than $1,000. Notes and portions thereof the Trustee selects
shall be redeemed in amounts of $1,000 or whole multiples of $1,000. For all purposes of this Indenture unless the context otherwise requires, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also apply to portions of Notes
called for redemption. 
  
 SECTION 3.03 Notice of
Redemption. 
  
 At least 30 days, and no more
than 60 days, before a Redemption Date, the Issuer shall mail, or cause to be mailed, a notice of redemption by first-class mail to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at his or her last address as the same appears on the registry books maintained
by the Registrar pursuant to Section 2.04. 
  
 The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed (including the CUSIP or ISIN numbers thereof, if any) and shall state: 
  
 (1) the Redemption Date; 
  
 (2) the redemption price and the amount of premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest to be paid; 
  
 (3) if any Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of
the principal amount of such Note to be redeemed and that, after the Redemption Date and upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion shall be issued; 
  
 (4) the name and address of the Paying Agent; 
  

 43 








 (5) that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect

 The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, incur any Indebtedness; provided

 The maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary may incur pursuant to this Section 4.06 shall not be
deemed to be exceeded solely as the result of fluctuations in the exchange rates of currencies. In determining the amount of Indebtedness outstanding under one of the clauses above, the outstanding principal amount of any particular Indebtedness of
any Person shall be counted only once and any obligation of such Person or any other Person arising under any guarantee, Lien, letter of credit or similar instrument supporting such Indebtedness shall be disregarded so long as it is permitted to be

upon such conversion or exchange), plus

Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction at such time on an arm’s-length basis by the Issuer or that Restricted Subsidiary from a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Issuer or that Restricted
Subsidiary; and 
  
 (2) the Issuer delivers to
the Trustee:

 SECTION 4.10 Limitation on Asset Sales. 
  
 At any time other than during a Suspension Period, the Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or
indirectly, consummate any Asset Sale unless: 
  
 (1) the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value of the assets included in such Asset Sale; and 
  
 (2) at least 75% of the total consideration received in such
Asset Sale consists of cash or Cash Equivalents. 
  
 For purposes of clause (2), the following shall be deemed to be cash: 
  
 (a) the amount (without duplication) of any Indebtedness of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary that is assumed (expressly or by
operation of law) by the transferee in such Asset Sale and with respect to which the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is no longer liable, 
  
 (b) the amount of any obligations received from such transferee that are within 180 days converted by the
Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary to cash (to the extent of the cash actually so received),

other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (d) less the amount of Net Available Proceeds previously realized in cash from prior Designated Non-cash Consideration is less than the greater of (x) 2.5% of Total
Assets at the time of receipt of such Designated Non-cash Consideration (with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-cash Consideration being measured at 

  

 55 








 
the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value), and (y) $75.0 million. 
  
 If at any time any non-cash consideration received by the
Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer, as the case may be, in connection with any Asset Sale is repaid or converted into or sold or otherwise disposed of for cash (other than interest received with respect to any such non-cash
consideration), then the date of such repayment, conversion or disposition shall be deemed to constitute the date of an Asset Sale hereunder and the Net Available Proceeds thereof shall be applied in accordance with this Section 4.10.

  
 If the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary
engages in an Asset Sale, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary shall, no later than 365 days following the consummation thereof, apply all or any of the Net Available Proceeds therefrom to: 
  
 (1) satisfy all mandatory repayment obligations under the
Credit Agreement arising by reason of such Asset Sale;

 (3) invest all or any part of the Net Available Proceeds thereof in the purchase of assets to be used by the Issuer or any Restricted
Subsidiary in the Permitted Business; and/or 
  
 (4) in the case of any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor, repay Indebtedness of such Restricted Subsidiary. 
  
 The amount of Net Available Proceeds not applied or invested as provided in this paragraph will constitute “Excess
Proceeds.” 
  
 When the aggregate amount
of Excess Proceeds equals or exceeds $20.0 million, the Issuer will be required to make an offer to purchase from all Holders and, if applicable, redeem (or make an offer to do so) any Pari Passu Indebtedness of the Issuer the provisions of which
require the Issuer to redeem such Indebtedness with the proceeds from any Asset Sales (or offer to do so), in an aggregate principal amount of Notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness equal to the amount of such Excess Proceeds as follows: 

 
 (1) the Issuer will (a) make an offer to purchase (a
“Net Proceeds Offer”) to all Holders in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture, and (b) redeem (or make an offer to do so) any such other Pari Passu Indebtedness, pro rata in proportion to the respective
principal amounts of the Notes and such other Indebtedness required to be redeemed, the maximum principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness that may be redeemed out of the amount (the “Payment Amount”) of such Excess
Proceeds; 
  

 56 








 (2) the offer price for the Notes will be payable in cash in an amount equal to 100% of
the principal amount of the Notes tendered pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the date such Net Proceeds Offer is consummated (the “Offered Price”), in accordance with the
procedures set forth in this Indenture and the redemption price for such Pari Passu Indebtedness (the “Pari Passu Indebtedness Price”) shall be as set forth in the related documentation governing such Indebtedness; 
  
 (3) if the aggregate Offered Price of Notes validly tendered
and not withdrawn by Holders thereof exceeds the pro rata portion of the Payment Amount allocable to the Notes, Notes to be purchased will be selected on a pro rata basis; and 
  
 (4) upon completion of such Net Proceeds Offer in accordance
with the foregoing provisions, the amount of Excess Proceeds with respect to which such Net Proceeds Offer was made shall be deemed to be zero. 
  
 To the extent that the sum of the aggregate Offered Price of Notes tendered pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer and the aggregate Pari Passu
Indebtedness Price paid to the holders of such Pari Passu Indebtedness is less than the Payment Amount relating thereto (such shortfall constituting a “Net Proceeds Deficiency”), the Issuer may use the Net Proceeds Deficiency, or a
portion thereof, for general corporate purposes, subject to the provisions of this Indenture. 
  
 In the event of the transfer of substantially all (but not all) of the assets of the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries as an entirety
to a Person in a transaction covered by and effected in accordance with Section 5.01, the successor corporation shall be deemed to have sold for cash at Fair Market Value the assets of the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries not so
transferred for purposes of this Section 4.10, and shall comply with the provisions of this Section 4.10 with respect to such deemed sale as if it were an Asset Sale (with such Fair Market Value being deemed to be Net Available Proceeds
for such purpose). 
  
 The Issuer will comply
with applicable tender offer rules, including the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other applicable laws and regulations in connection with the purchase of Notes pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer. To the extent that the
provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 4.10, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.10
by virtue of this compliance. 
  
 SECTION 4.11 Limitation on
the Issuance or Sale of Equity Interests of Restricted Subsidiaries.

except (1) to the Issuer, a Restricted Subsidiary or the minority stockholders of any Restricted Subsidiary, on a pro rata basis, at Fair Market Value, (2) to the extent 

  

 57 








 
such Equity Interests represent directors’ qualifying shares or shares required by applicable law to be held by a Person other than the Issuer or a
Wholly-Owned Restricted Subsidiary or (3) to a third party to the extent the Issuer would be permitted to make an Investment in the remaining Equity Interests of such Restricted Subsidiary pursuant to Section 4.07. The sale of all the
Equity Interests of any Restricted Subsidiary is permitted by this Section 4.11 but is subject to Section 4.10. 
  
 SECTION 4.12 Limitations on Dividend and Other Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries.

loans or advances or pay any Indebtedness or other obligation owed to the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary; or

imposed under any agreement to sell such assets permitted under this Indenture to any Person pending the closing of such sale; 
  
 (7) any instrument governing Acquired Indebtedness or any agreement of any Person that was acquired after the Issue Date, in either case,
which encumbrance or 

  

 58 








 
restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person or the properties or assets of the Person so
acquired; 
  
 (8) any other agreement governing
Indebtedness entered into after the Issue Date that contains encumbrances and restrictions that are not materially more restrictive in the aggregate than those in effect on the Issue Date pursuant to agreements in effect on the Issue Date;

  
 (9) provisions in partnership agreements,
limited liability company organizational governance documents, joint venture agreements and other similar agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business that restrict the transfer of ownership interests in such partnership, limited

Directors, no more materially restrictive in the aggregate with respect to such encumbrances and restrictions than those prior to such amendment or refinancing; and 
  
 (12) encumbrances or restrictions incurred or entered into during any Suspension Period.

condition or results of operations of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole and the loss thereof is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders

Issuer will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date. 
  
 (c) (i) If the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof has issued any outstanding (A) Indebtedness that is subordinated in
right of payment to the Notes or (B) Preferred Stock, and the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary is required to make a Change of Control Offer or to make a distribution with respect to such subordinated Indebtedness or Preferred Stock in the

 SECTION 4.18 Limitations on Layering Indebtedness. 
  
 At any time other than during a Suspension Period, the Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any Guarantor to, directly or indirectly,
incur any Indebtedness that is or purports to be by its terms (or by the terms of any agreement governing such Indebtedness) subordinated to any other Indebtedness of the Issuer or of such Guarantor, as the case may be, unless such Indebtedness is
also by its terms (or by the terms of any agreement governing such Indebtedness) made expressly subordinate to the Notes or the Note Guarantee of such Guarantor, to the same extent and in the same manner as such Indebtedness is subordinated to such
other Indebtedness of the Issuer or such Guarantor, as the case may be. 
  
 SECTION 4.19 Limitations on Designation of Unrestricted Subsidiaries. 
  
 The Issuer may designate any Subsidiary of the Issuer as an “Unrestricted Subsidiary” under this Indenture (a
“Designation”) only if: 
  
 (1)
no Default shall have occurred and be continuing after giving effect to such Designation; and 
  
 (2) the Issuer would be permitted to make an Investment in an amount (the “Designation Amount”) equal to the Fair Market
Value of the Issuer’s proportionate interest in such Subsidiary on such date (and in the case of any Designation occurring during a Suspension Period, the Issuer could make such Investment if such Suspension Period were not then in effect).

“Unrestricted Subsidiary” unless such Subsidiary: 
  
 (1) has no Indebtedness other than Non-Recourse Debt; 
  
 (2) is not party to any agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding with the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary unless the terms of
the agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding are no less favorable to the Issuer or the Restricted Subsidiary than those that might be obtained at the time from Persons who are not Affiliates; 
  
 (3) is a Person with respect to which neither the Issuer nor

operating results; and 
  

 62 








 (4) has not guaranteed or otherwise directly or indirectly provided credit support for
any Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, except for any guarantee given solely to support the pledge by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Equity Interests of such Unrestricted Subsidiary, which guarantee is not
recourse to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, and except to the extent the amount thereof constitutes a Restricted Payment permitted pursuant to Section 4.07. 
  
 If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary fails to meet the preceding requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it shall thereafter
cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of this Indenture and any Indebtedness of the Subsidiary and any Liens on assets of such Subsidiary shall be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary as of the date and, if the Indebtedness
is not permitted to be incurred under the covenant described under Section 4.06 or the Lien is not permitted under the covenant described under Section 4.08 the Issuer shall be in default of the applicable covenant. 
  
 The Issuer may redesignate an Unrestricted Subsidiary as a
Restricted Subsidiary (a “Redesignation”) only if: 
  
 (1) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of and after giving effect to such Redesignation; and 
  
 (2) all Liens, Indebtedness and Investments of such Unrestricted Subsidiary outstanding immediately following such Redesignation would, if
incurred or made at such time, have been permitted to be incurred or made for all purposes of this Indenture. 
  
 All Designations and Redesignations must be evidenced by resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Issuer, delivered to the Trustee
certifying compliance with the foregoing provisions. 
  
 SECTION

Restricted Subsidiary could have (a) incurred the Indebtedness attributable to such Sale and Leaseback Transaction pursuant to Section 4.06 and (b) incurred a Lien on such assets pursuant to Section 4.08; and 
  
 (2) the gross cash proceeds of such Sale and Leaseback
Transaction are at least equal to the Fair Market Value of the asset that is the subject of such Sale and Leaseback Transaction.

 SECTION 5.01 Limitation on Mergers, Amalgamations, Consolidations, Etc. 
  
 The Issuer shall not, directly or indirectly, in a single transaction or a series of related transactions,
(a) consolidate, merge or amalgamate with or into (other than a merger, amalgamation or plan of arrangement with a Wholly-Owned Restricted Subsidiary solely for the purpose of changing the Issuer’s jurisdiction of incorporation to a State
of the United States), or sell, lease, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of or assign all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer or the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) or (b) adopt a Plan of Liquidation
unless, in either case: 
  
 (1) either:

  
 (a) the Issuer will be the surviving or
continuing Person; or 
  
 (b) the Person formed
by or surviving such consolidation or merger or to which such sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition shall be made (or, in the case of a Plan of Liquidation, any Person to which assets are transferred) (collectively, the
“Successor”) is organized and existing under the laws of any State of the United States of America or the District of Columbia, and the Successor expressly assumes, by supplemental indenture in form and substance satisfactory to the
Trustee, all of the obligations of the Issuer under the Notes, this Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement; 
  
 (2) at any time other than during a Suspension Period, immediately after giving effect to such transaction and the assumption of the
obligations as set forth in clause (1)(b) above and the incurrence of any Indebtedness to be incurred in connection therewith, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and 
  
 (3) at any time other than during a Suspension Period, immediately after and giving effect to such
transaction and the assumption of the obligations set forth in clause (1)(b) above and the incurrence of any Indebtedness to be incurred in connection therewith, and the use of any net proceeds therefrom on a pro forma basis, the Issuer or the
Successor, as the case may be, could incur $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Coverage Ratio Exception. 
  
 For purposes of this Section 5.01, any Indebtedness of the Successor which was not Indebtedness of the Issuer immediately prior to the transaction shall be deemed to
have been incurred in connection with such transaction. 
  

 64 








 Except as provided in Section 10.04, no Guarantor may consolidate or amalgamate with
or merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving Person) another Person, whether or not affiliated with such Guarantor, unless:

 (5) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no
Default shall have occurred and be continuing. 
  
 For purposes of the foregoing, the transfer (by lease, assignment, sale or otherwise, in a single transaction or series of transactions) of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of one or more Restricted Subsidiaries, the
Equity Interests of which constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Issuer, will be deemed to be the transfer of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Issuer. 
  
 Upon any consolidation, combination, merger or amalgamation
of the Issuer or a Guarantor, or any transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer in accordance with the foregoing, in which the Issuer or such Guarantor is not the continuing obligor under the Notes or its Note Guarantee, the
surviving entity formed by such consolidation or into which the Issuer or such Guarantor is merged or to which the conveyance, lease or transfer is made will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Issuer
or such Guarantor under this Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees with the same effect as if such surviving entity had been named therein as the Issuer or such Guarantor and, except in the case of a conveyance, transfer or lease, the Issuer
or such Guarantor, as the case may be, will be released from the obligation to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes or in respect of its Note Guarantee, as the case may be, and all of the Issuer’s or such Guarantor’s other
obligations and covenants under the Notes, this Indenture and its Note Guarantee, if applicable. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Restricted Subsidiary may merge into the Issuer or another Restricted Subsidiary.

or judgments have not been satisfied, stayed, annulled or rescinded within 60 days of being entered; 
  
 (7) the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law: 
  
 (a) commences a voluntary case, 
  
 (b) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it
in an involuntary case,

 The Issuer is required to deliver to the Trustee annually a
statement regarding compliance with this Indenture and, upon any Officer of the Issuer becoming aware of any Default, a statement specifying such Default and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. 
  
 Subject to Sections 7.01 and 7.02, the Trustee shall not be
charged with knowledge of any Default, Event of Default, Change of Control or Asset Sale or the requirement for 

  

 67 








 
payment of Additional Interest unless written notice thereof shall have been given to a Responsible Officer at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee by
the Issuer or any other Person. 
  
 SECTION 6.02
Acceleration. 
  
 If an Event of Default
(other than an Event of Default specified in clause (7) or (8) above with respect to the Issuer), shall have occurred and be continuing under this Indenture, the Trustee, by written notice to the Issuer, or the Holders of at least 25% in
aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by written notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, may declare all amounts owing under the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Upon such declaration of acceleration, the aggregate principal
of and accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding Notes shall immediately become due and payable; provided, however, that after such acceleration, but before a judgment or decree based on acceleration, the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of such outstanding Notes may, under certain circumstances, rescind and annul such acceleration if all Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of accelerated principal and interest, have been cured or waived as
provided in this Indenture. If an Event of Default specified in clause (7) or (8) of Section 6.01 with respect to the Issuer occurs, all outstanding Notes shall become due and payable without any further action or notice. 

 
 The Trustee shall, within 90 days after the occurrence of
any Default with respect to the Notes, give the Holders notice of all uncured Defaults thereunder known to it; provided, however, that, except in the case of an Event of Default in payment with respect to the Notes or a Default in
complying with Section 5.01, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as a committee of its trust officers in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interest of the Holders.

  
 SECTION 6.03 Other Remedies. 
  
 If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee
may pursue any available remedy by proceeding at law or in equity to collect the payment of principal of, or premium, if any, and interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture. 
  
 The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not
possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder 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. No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. All available remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law. Any costs associated with actions taken by the Trustee under this Section 6.03
shall be reimbursed to the Trustee by the Issuer. 
  

 68 








 SECTION 6.04 Waiver of Past Defaults and Events of Default. 
  
 Subject to Sections 6.02, 6.08 and 8.02, the Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by written notice to the Trustee have the right to waive any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision of this Indenture or the Notes. The Issuer shall deliver to
the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the requisite percentage of Holders has consented to such waiver. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been
cured for every purpose of this Indenture; provided that no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto. 
  
 SECTION 6.05 Control by Majority. 
  
 The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes outstanding shall have the right to direct the
time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee by this Indenture. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law
or this Indenture or that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of another Holder not taking part in such direction, and the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee, being advised
by counsel, determines that the action so directed may not lawfully be taken or if the Trustee in good faith shall, by a Responsible Officer, determine that the proceedings so directed may involve it in personal liability; provided that the
Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction. 
  
 SECTION 6.06 Limitation on Suits. 
  
 Subject to Section 6.08, a Holder may not institute any proceeding or pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes
unless: 
  
 (1) the Holder gives to the Trustee
written notice of a continuing Event of Default; 
  
 (2) the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy; 
  
 (3) such Holder or Holders offer and if requested provide to the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory
to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense; 
  
 (4) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer, and, if requested, provision of, indemnity; and 
  

 69 








 (5) no direction which in the reasonable opinion of the Trustee is inconsistent with such
written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60 day period by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding. 
  
 However, such limitations do not apply to a suit instituted by a Holder of any Note for enforcement of
payment of the principal of or interest on such Note on or after the due date therefor (in the case of any interest payment, after giving effect to the grace period specified in clause (1) of Section 6.01). 
  
 A Holder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a
preference or priority over another Holder. 
  
 SECTION 6.07 No
Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees and Stockholders. 
  
 No director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Issuer or any Guarantor shall have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer under the Notes or this Indenture or of any Guarantor under its
Note Guarantee or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance
of the Notes and the Note Guarantees. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws. 
  
 SECTION 6.08 Rights of Holders To Receive Payment. 
  
 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal of, or premium,
if any, and interest on such Note (including Additional Interest) on or after the respective due dates expressed on such Note, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, is absolute and unconditional
and shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder. 
  
 SECTION 6.09 Collection Suit by Trustee. 
  
 If an Event of Default in payment of principal, premium or interest specified in clause (1) or (2) of Section 6.01 occurs
and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer or any Guarantor for the whole amount of unpaid principal and accrued interest remaining unpaid, together with interest on
overdue principal and, to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest on overdue installments of interest, in each case at the rate set forth in the Notes, and such further amounts as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and
expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. 
  

 70 








 SECTION 6.10 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 the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the
Trustee under Section 7.07) and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer or any Guarantor, its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect and receive any monies or other property
payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same after deduction of its charges and expenses to the extent that any such charges and expenses are not paid out of the estate in any such proceedings and any custodian in any such
judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof. 
  
 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 or reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such
proceedings. 
  
 SECTION 6.11 Priorities. 
  
 If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this
Article Six, it shall pay out the money in the following order: 
  

			
	FIRST:	  	to the Trustee for amounts due under Section 7.07;
		
	SECOND:	  	to Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest, if any) as to each, ratably, without preference or priority of
any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes; and
		
	THIRD:	  	to the Issuer or, to the extent the Trustee collects any amount from any Guarantor, to such Guarantor.

  
 The
Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section 6.11. 
  
 SECTION 6.12 Undertaking for Costs. 
  
 In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or
omitted by it as 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 

  

 71 








 
the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in the suit,
having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.12 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.08 or a suit by Holders of more than
10% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding. 
  
 ARTICLE SEVEN 
  
 TRUSTEE 
  
 SECTION 7.01 Duties of Trustee. 
  
 (a) If an Event of Default actually known to a Responsible
Officer of the Trustee has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use
under the same circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. 
  
 (b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default: 
  
 (1) The Trustee need perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no
implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture. 
  
 (2) In the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the
Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture but, in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine
the same to determine whether or not they conform on their face to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations, the accuracy of the signatures or other facts 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: 
  
 (1) This paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section 7.01. 
  
 (2) The Trustee shall not be liable for any error of
judgment made in good faith, unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts. 
  
 (3) The Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction
received by it pursuant to the terms of Sections 6.04 and 6.05. 
  

 72 








 (4) No provision of this 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 rights, powers or duties if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or
liability is not reasonably assured to it. 
  
 (d) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 7.01 shall govern every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee; provided that the Trustee’s
conduct does not constitute gross negligence or bad faith. 
  
 (e) The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Issuer or any Guarantor. Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from
other funds except to the extent required by the law. 
  
 SECTION
7.02 Rights of Trustee. 
  
 Subject to
Section 7.01: 
  
 (1) The Trustee may rely
on any document reasonably 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. 
  
 (2) Any request or direction of the Issuer mentioned herein
shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Issuer Request and any resolution of the Board of Directors shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution. 
  
 (3) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel, or both, which
shall conform in all material respects to the provisions of Section 11.05. The Trustee shall be protected and shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such certificate or opinion. 
  
 (4) The Trustee may act through its attorneys and agents and
shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent appointed by it with due care. 
  
 (5) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it reasonably believes to be authorized
or within its rights or powers. 
  
 (6) The
Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection, and the advice or opinion of such counsel as to matters of law shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered by it
hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel. 
  

 73 








 (7) Whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable
that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, rely upon an Officers’
Certificate. 
  
 (8) The Trustee shall not be
bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, coupon or other paper or document.

  
 (9) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have
notice of any Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the
Notes and this Indenture. As used herein, the term “actual knowledge” means the actual fact or statement of knowing, without any duty to make any investigation with regard thereto. 
  
 (10) The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or
surety in respect of the performance of its powers and duties hereunder. 
  
 (11) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request, order or direction of any of the Holders, pursuant to the provisions of this
Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against any loss, liability or expense which may be incurred therein or thereby. 
  
 (12) The Trustee shall not be responsible for any information contained in any notice provision provided to
the Trustee by the Issuer for distribution to the Holders. 
  
 SECTION 7.03 Individual Rights of Trustee. 
  
 The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may make loans to, accept deposits from, perform services for or otherwise deal with the either of the Issuer or any
Guarantor, or any Affiliates thereof, with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Agent may do the same with like rights. The Trustee, however, shall be subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11. 
  
 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 Indenture or the Notes or any Note Guarantee, it shall not be accountable for the Issuer’s or any Guarantor’s use of the proceeds from the sale of Notes or any money paid to the Issuer
or any Guarantor pursuant to the terms of this Indenture and it shall not be 

  

 74 








 
responsible for any statement in the Notes, any Note Guarantee or this Indenture other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication. 
  
 SECTION 7.05 Notice of Defaults. 
  
 If a Default occurs and is continuing and if the Trustee has
actual knowledge of such default, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder notice of the Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default in payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on any Note or a default in
the observance or performance of any of the obligations of the Issuer under Article Five, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the
best interest of the Holders. 
  
 SECTION 7.06 Reports by
Trustee to Holders. 
  
 If required by TIA
§ 313(a), within 90 days after December 31 of any year, commencing December 31, 2001 the Trustee shall mail to each Holder a brief report dated as of such December 31 that complies with TIA § 313(a). The Trustee
also shall comply with TIA § 313(b)(2). The Trustee shall also transmit by mail all reports as required by TIA § 313(c) and TIA § 313(d). 
  
 Reports pursuant to this Section 7.06 shall be transmitted by mail: 
  
 (1) to all Holders of Notes, as the names and addresses of
such Holders appear on the Registrar’s books; and 
  
 (2) to such Holders of Notes as have, within the two years preceding such transmission, filed their names and addresses with the Trustee for that purpose. 
  
 A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Holders shall be filed with the SEC and each stock
exchange on which the Notes are listed. The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee when the Notes are listed on any stock exchange. 
  
 SECTION 7.07 Compensation and Indemnity. 
  
 The Issuer and any Guarantors shall pay to the Trustee and each Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services hereunder
(which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust). The Issuer and any Guarantors shall reimburse the Trustee and each Agent upon request for all reasonable disbursements,
expenses and advances incurred or made by it in connection with its duties under this Indenture, including the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel. 
  

 75 








 The Issuer and any Guarantors shall, jointly and severally, indemnify each of the Trustee
and any predecessor Trustee (which for purposes of this Section 7.07 shall include such Trustee’s officers, directors, employees and agents) and each Agent for, and hold each of them harmless against, any and all loss, damage, claim,
liability or expense, including without limitation taxes (other than taxes based on the income of the Trustee or such Agent) and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by each of them in connection with the acceptance or performance
of its duties under this Indenture including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder (including, without limitation,
settlement costs). The Issuer and any Guarantor need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, shall notify the Issuer and any Guarantors in
writing promptly of any claim asserted against the Trustee or such Agent for which it may seek indemnity. However, the failure by the Trustee or such Agent to so notify the Issuer and any Guarantors shall not relieve the Issuer and any Guarantors of
their obligations hereunder. 
  
 Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Issuer and any Guarantors need not reimburse the Trustee or any Agent for any expense or indemnify it against any loss or liability incurred by the Trustee or such Agent, as the case may be, resulting from its own negligence,
willful misconduct or bad faith. To secure the payment obligations of the Issuer and any Guarantors in this Section 7.07, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee except such
money or property held in trust to pay principal of and interest on particular Notes. The obligations of the Issuer and any Guarantors under this Section 7.07 to compensate and indemnify the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee and to pay or
reimburse the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee for expenses, disbursements and advances shall be joint and several liabilities of the Issuer and any Guarantors and shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee and the satisfaction,
discharge or other termination of this Indenture, including any termination or rejection hereof under any Bankruptcy Law. 
  
 When the Trustee incurs expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of its Agents and counsel) or renders services after an Event of
Default specified in clause (7) or (8) of Section 6.01 hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law. 
  
 In no event shall the Trustee be liable for any indirect,
special, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever, including, but not limited to, lost profits, even if the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. 
  
 In no event shall the Trustee be liable for any failure or
delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder because of circumstances beyond its control, including, but not limited to, acts of God, flood, war (whether declared or undeclared), terrorism, fire, riot, embargo, 

  

 76 








 
government action, including any laws, ordinances, regulations, governmental action or the like which delay, restrict or prohibit the providing of the
services contemplated by this Indenture. 
  
 For
purposes of this Section 7.07, the term “Trustee” shall include any trustee appointed pursuant to Article Nine. 
  
 SECTION 7.08 Replacement of Trustee. 
  
 The Trustee may resign by so notifying the Issuer and any Guarantors in writing. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by notifying the Issuer and the removed Trustee in writing and may appoint a successor Trustee with the Issuer’s written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Issuer may remove
the Trustee at its election if: 
  
 (1) the
Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof; 
  
 (2) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent; 
  
 (3) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or 
  
 (4) the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of performing its duties hereunder. 
  
 If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists
in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Issuer shall notify the Holders of such event and shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. Within one year after such successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the Notes then outstanding may appoint a successor Trustee to replace such successor Trustee appointed by the Issuer. 
  
 If a successor Trustee does not take office within 30 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the
Issuer or the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
  
 If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10, any Holder may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
  
 A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuer. Immediately following
such delivery, the retiring Trustee shall, subject to its rights under Section 7.07, transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, 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 

  

 77 








 
Indenture. A successor Trustee shall mail notice of its succession to each Holder. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this
Section 7.08, the Issuer’s and any Guarantor’s obligations under Section 7.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee. 
  
 SECTION 7.09 Successor Trustee by Consolidation, Merger, Etc. 
  
 If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its
corporate trust assets to, another corporation, subject to Section 7.10, the successor corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee; provided such entity shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article
Seven. 
  
 SECTION 7.10 Eligibility; Disqualification.

  
 This Indenture shall always have a Trustee
who satisfies the requirements of TIA § 310(a)(1) and (2) in every respect. The Trustee (together with its corporate parent) shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $100,000,000 as set forth in the most recent applicable
published annual report of condition. The Trustee shall comply with TIA § 310(b), including the provision in § 310(b)(1). 
  
 SECTION 7.11 Preferential Collection of Claims Against Issuer. 
  
 The Trustee shall comply with TIA § 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA
§ 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA § 311(a) to the extent indicated therein. 
  
 SECTION 7.12 Paying Agents. 
  
 The Issuer shall cause each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to it and the Trustee an instrument in which such
agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 7.12: 
  
 (1) that it shall hold all sums held by it as agent for the payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, the Notes
(whether such sums have been paid to it by the Issuer, any Guarantor or by any other obligor on the Notes) in trust for the benefit of Holders of the Notes or the Trustee; 
  
 (2) that it shall at any time during the continuance of any Event of Default, upon written request from the
Trustee, deliver to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by it together with a full accounting thereof; and 
  
 (3) that it shall give the Trustee written notice within three Business Days of any failure of the Issuer, any Guarantor or by any obligor
on the Notes in the payment of any installment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, the Notes when the same shall be due and payable. 
  

 78 








 ARTICLE EIGHT 
  
 AMENDMENTS, SUPPLEMENTS AND WAIVERS 
  
 SECTION 8.01 Without Consent of Holders. 
  
 The Issuer and any Guarantors, when authorized by a Board Resolution of each of them, and the Trustee, when an Officers’ Certificate
is provided stating that such amendment or supplement complies with the provisions of this Section 8.01, may amend, waive or supplement this Indenture or the Notes without notice to or consent of any Holder: 
  
 (1) to comply with Section 5.01; 
  
 (2) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in
place of certificated Notes; 
  
 (3) [Reserved];

  
 (4) to cure any ambiguity, defect or
inconsistency; 
  
 (5) to release any Guarantor
from any of its obligations under its Note Guarantee or this Indenture (to the extent permitted by this Indenture); 
  
 (6) to provide for the issuance of the Exchange Notes or the Private Exchange Notes in accordance with Section 2.01 in a manner that
does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder; 
  
 (7) to provide for the assumption of the Issuer’s obligations to Holders in the case of a merger or acquisition in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; 
  
 (8) to make any other change that does not materially adversely affect the rights of any Holders hereunder;
or 
  
 (9) to maintain the qualification of this
Indenture under the TIA. 
  
 The Trustee is
hereby authorized to join with the Issuer and any Guarantors in the execution of any supplemental indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of this Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations which may be therein
contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into any such supplemental indenture which adversely affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture. 
  
 SECTION 8.02 With Consent of Holders. 
  
 The Issuer (when authorized by a Board Resolution) and any Guarantors (when authorized by a Board
Resolution) may, subject to Section 8.06, direct the Trustee to modify or 

  

 79 








 
supplement this Indenture, the Note Guarantees and/or the Notes with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount
of the outstanding Notes, provided that: 
  
 (a) no such amendment may, without the consent of the Holders of two-thirds in aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, amend the obligation of the Issuer under Section 4.15 or the related definitions that could adversely
affect the rights of any Holder; and 
  
 (b)
without the consent of each Holder affected, the Issuer and the Trustee may not: 
  
 (1) change the maturity of any Note; 
  
 (2) reduce the amount, extend the due date or otherwise affect the terms of any scheduled payment of interest on or principal of the
Notes; 
  
 (3) reduce any premium payable upon
optional redemption of the Notes, change the date on which any Notes are subject to redemption or otherwise alter the provisions with respect to the redemption of the Notes; 
  
 (4) make any Note payable in money or currency other than that stated in the Notes; 
  
 (5) modify or change any provision of this Indenture or the
related definitions to affect the ranking of the Notes or any Note Guarantee in a manner that adversely affects the Holders; 
  
 (6) reduce the percentage of Holders necessary to consent to an amendment or waiver to this Indenture or the Notes; 
  
 (7) impair the rights of Holders to receive payments of
principal of or interest on the Notes; 
  
 (8)
release any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary from any of its obligations under its Note Guarantee or this Indenture, except as permitted by this Indenture; or 
  
 (9) make any change in these amendment and waiver provisions. 
  
 After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this
Section 8.02 becomes effective, the Issuer shall mail to the Holders a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. 
  

 80 








 Upon the written request of the Issuer, accompanied by a Board Resolution authorizing the
execution of any such supplemental indenture, and upon the receipt by the Trustee of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders as aforesaid and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in
Section 8.06, the Trustee shall join with the Issuer and any Guarantors in the execution of such supplemental indenture unless such supplemental indenture affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture, in
which case the Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such supplemental indenture. 
  
 It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 8.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed
amendment, supplement or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. 
  
 SECTION 8.03 Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. 
  
 Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes shall comply with the TIA as then in effect. 
  
 SECTION 8.04 Revocation and Effect of Consents. 
  
 Until an amendment, supplement, waiver or other action
becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder is a continuing consent conclusive and binding upon such Holder and every subsequent Holder of the same Note or portion thereof, and of any Note issued upon the transfer thereof or in exchange therefor
or in place thereof, even if notation of the consent is not made on any such Note. Any such Holder or subsequent Holder, however, may revoke the consent as to his Note or portion of a Note, if the Trustee receives the written notice of revocation
before the date the amendment, supplement, waiver or other action becomes effective. 
  
 The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any
amendment, supplement, or waiver. If a record date is fixed, then, notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only such Persons, shall be entitled to consent to
such amendment, supplement, or waiver or to revoke any consent previously given, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 120 days after such record date
unless the consent of the requisite number of Holders has been obtained. 
  
 An amendment, supplement, waiver or other action becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter shall bind every Holder, unless it makes a change described in any of clauses (1) through (9) of
Section 8.02(b). In that case the amendment, supplement, waiver or other action shall bind each Holder who has consented to it and every subsequent Holder or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note.

  

 81 








 SECTION 8.05 Notation on or Exchange of Notes. 
  
 If an amendment, supplement, or waiver changes the terms of
a Note, the Trustee (in accordance with the specific written direction of the Issuer) shall request the Holder of the Note (in accordance with the specific written direction of the Issuer) to deliver it to the Trustee. In such case, the Trustee
shall at the expense of the Issuer place an appropriate notation on the Note about the changed terms and return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Issuer or the Trustee so determines, the Issuer in exchange for the Note shall issue, any
Guarantors shall endorse and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Note that reflects the changed terms. Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

  
 SECTION 8.06 Trustee To Sign Amendments, Etc.

  
 The Trustee shall sign any amendment,
supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article Eight if the amendment, supplement or waiver does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may, but need not, sign it. In
signing or refusing to sign such amendment, supplement or waiver the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and, subject to Sections 7.01 and 7.02, shall be fully protected in relying upon an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel
stating, in addition to the matters required by Section 11.04, that such amendment, supplement or waiver is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer and any Guarantors, enforceable
against the Issuer and any Guarantors in accordance with its terms (subject to customary exceptions). 
  
 ARTICLE NINE 
  
 DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE; DEFEASANCE 
  
 SECTION 9.01
Discharge of Indenture. 
  
 The Issuer may
terminate its obligations under the Notes and this Indenture as well as the obligations of any Guarantors under their respective Note Guarantees, except those obligations referred to in the penultimate paragraph of this Section 9.01 if:

  
 (1) all the Notes that have been
authenticated and delivered (except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes which have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Issuer and thereafter repaid to the Issuer or
discharged from this trust) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, or 
  
 (2) all Notes not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation otherwise have become due and payable or have been called for redemption
pursuant to Section 3.07 and the Issuer has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee trust funds 

  

 82 








 
in trust in an amount of money sufficient to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness (including all principal and accrued interest) on the Notes not
theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, and 
  
 (3) the Issuer has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at maturity or on the date of redemption, as the case may be. 
  
 Notwithstanding the first paragraph of this
Section 9.01, the Issuer’s obligations in Sections 2.06, 2.07, 2.08, 2.09, 7.07, 9.05 and 9.06 shall survive until the Notes are no longer outstanding pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 2.09. After the Notes are no longer
outstanding, the Issuer’s obligations in Section 7.07, 9.05 and 9.06 shall survive. 
  
 After such delivery or irrevocable deposit, the Trustee upon written request of the Issuer shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of
the Issuer’s and each Guarantor’s obligations under the Notes, the Note Guarantees and this Indenture, as the case may be, except for those surviving obligations specified above. 
  
 SECTION 9.02 Legal Defeasance. 
  
 The Issuer may at its option at any time, by Board
Resolution of the Issuer, be discharged from its obligations with respect to the Notes and any Guarantors discharged from their obligations under their respective Note Guarantees on the date the conditions set forth in Section 9.04 are
satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, “Legal Defeasance” means that the Issuer and any Guarantors shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the Notes and
the Note Guarantees, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 9.08 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (A) and (B) below, and to have satisfied all of
its other obligations under such Notes, such Note Guarantees and this Indenture, as the case may be, insofar as such Notes are concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Issuer, shall, subject to Section 9.06 hereof, execute instruments
in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee and the Issuer acknowledging the same), except for the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (A) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes
to receive solely from the trust funds described in Section 9.04, and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Notes when such payments are due, (B) the
Issuer’s obligations with respect to such Notes under Sections 2.04, 2.05, 2.07, 2.08 and 2.11, (C) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder (including claims of, or payments to, the Trustee pursuant
to Section 7.07) and (D) this Article Nine. Subject to compliance with this Article Nine, the Issuer may exercise its option under this Section 9.02 with respect to the Notes notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under
Section 9.03 with respect to the Notes. 
  

 83 








 SECTION 9.03 Covenant Defeasance. 
  
 At the option of the Issuer, pursuant to a Board Resolution of the Issuer, the Issuer and any Guarantors
shall be released from their respective obligations under Sections 4.02 (except for obligations mandated by the TIA), 4.06 through 4.13, inclusive, and 4.15 and clause (a)(iii) of Section 5.01 with respect to the outstanding Notes on and
after the date the conditions set forth in Section 9.04 are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent
or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall not be
deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, “Covenant Defeasance” means that the Issuer and any Guarantors may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in
any such specified Section or portion thereof, whether directly or indirectly by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such specified Section or portion thereof or by reason of any reference in any such specified Section or portion thereof
to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under clause (3) or (4) of Section 6.01, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this
Indenture and the Notes shall be unaffected thereby. If the funds deposited with the Trustee to effect Covenant Defeasance are insufficient to pay all remaining principal and interest on the Notes when due, the Issuer’s obligations and the
obligations of the Guarantors under this Indenture will be revived and no such Covenant Defeasance shall be deemed to have occurred. 
  
 SECTION 9.04 Conditions to Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 
  
 In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance: 
  
 (1) the Issuer must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in
trust, for the benefit of the Holders, U.S. legal tender, U.S. Government Obligations or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient (without reinvestment) in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public
accountants selected by the Issuer, to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes on the stated date for payment or on the Redemption Date of the principal or installment of principal of or interest on the Notes, and the Holders must have a
valid, perfected, exclusive security interest in such trust, 
  
 (2) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an opinion of counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that: 
  
 (a) the Issuer has received from, or there has been
published by the Internal Revenue Service, a ruling, or 
  
 (b) since the date of this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law, 

  

 84 








 
in either case to the effect that, and based thereon this 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 the Legal Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred,

  
 (3) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the
Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an opinion of counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders shall not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such
Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if the Covenant Defeasance had not occurred, 
  
 (4) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the
date of such deposit (other than a Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit and the grant of any Lien securing such borrowing)or, in so far as Section 6.01(7) or 6.01(8) hereof is concerned, at any time in the
period ending on the 91st day after the date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such period), 
  
 (5) the Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute
a default under this Indenture or any other material agreement or instrument to which the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries is bound, 
  
 (6) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an
Officers’ Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by it with the intent of preferring the Holders over any other of its creditors or with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any other of its creditors or others,
and 
  
 (7) the Issuer shall have delivered to
the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an opinion of counsel, each stating that the conditions provided for in, in the case of the Officers’ Certificate, clauses (1) through (6) and, in the case of the opinion of counsel,
clauses (1) (with respect to the validity and perfection of the security interest), (2) and/or (3) and (5) of this paragraph have been complied with. 
  
 If the funds deposited with the Trustee to effect Covenant Defeasance are insufficient to pay the principal
of and interest on the Notes when due, then the Issuer’s obligations and the obligations of Guarantors under this Indenture will be revived and no such defeasance will be deemed to have occurred. 
  

 85 








 SECTION 9.05 Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations To Be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous
Provisions. 
  
 All money and U.S. Government
Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 9.04 in respect of the outstanding Notes shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this
Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent, to the Holders of such Notes, of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest, but such money need not be segregated
from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
  
 The Issuer and any Guarantors shall (on a joint and several basis) pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 9.04 or
the principal, premium, if any, and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes. 
  
 Anything in this Article Nine to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Issuer from time to time upon a Company Request any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 9.04 which, in the opinion of a nationally-recognized firm of
independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

  
 SECTION 9.06 Reinstatement. 
  
 If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money
or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article Nine by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the
Issuer’s and each Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees, as the case may be, shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article Nine until such time as
the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance this Article Nine; provided that if the Issuer or any Guarantors have made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or accrued
interest on any Notes because of the reinstatement of their obligations, the Issuer or such Guarantor, as the case may be, shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government
Obligations, as the case may be, held by the Trustee or Paying Agent. 
  
 SECTION 9.07 Moneys Held by Paying Agent. 
  
 In connection with the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, all moneys then held by any Paying Agent under the provisions of this Indenture shall, upon written demand of the Issuer, be paid to the Trustee, or
if sufficient moneys have been deposited pursuant to 

  

 86 








 
Section 9.04 hereof, to the Issuer upon a Company Request (or, if such moneys had been deposited by any Guarantors, to such Guarantors), and thereupon
such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such moneys. 
  
 SECTION 9.08 Moneys Held by Trustee. 
  
 Any moneys deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent or then held by the Issuer or any Guarantor in trust for the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on any Note that are not applied but
remain unclaimed by the Holder of such Note for two years after the date upon which the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on such Note shall have respectively become due and payable, shall be repaid to the Issuer (or, if appropriate, any
Guarantor) upon a Company Request, or if such moneys are then held by the Issuer or any Guarantor in trust, such moneys shall be released from such trust; and the Holder of such Note entitled to receive such payment shall thereafter, as an unsecured
general creditor, look only to the Issuer and any Guarantors for the payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money shall thereupon cease; provided that the Trustee or any such Paying
Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may, at the expense of the Issuer and any Guarantors, either mail to each Holder affected, at the address shown in the register of the Notes maintained by the Registrar pursuant to
Section 2.04 hereof, or cause to be published once a week for two successive weeks, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published each Business Day and of general circulation in the City of New York, New York, a notice
that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such mailing or publication, any unclaimed balance of such moneys then remaining shall be repaid to the Issuer. After
payment to the Issuer or any Guarantor or the release of any money held in trust by the Issuer or any Guarantor, as the case may be, Holders entitled to the money must look only to the Issuer and any Guarantors for payment as general creditors
unless applicable abandoned property law designates another Person. 
  
 ARTICLE TEN 
  
 GUARANTEE OF NOTES 
  
 SECTION 10.01 Note Guarantee. 
  
 Subject to the provisions of this Article Ten each Guarantor
hereby jointly and severally unconditionally guarantees, on a senior unsecured basis, to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors, irrespective of (i) the validity and enforceability
of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Issuer or any other Guarantors to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder or (ii) the absence of any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise
constitute a legal or equitable discharge or default of a Guarantor, that: (a) the principal of, premium, if any, interest and Additional Interest, if any, with respect to the Notes shall be duly and punctually paid in full when due, whether at
maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, and interest on the overdue 

  

 87 








 
principal and (to the extent permitted by law) interest or Additional Interest, if any, with respect to the Notes and all other obligations of the Issuer or
any Guarantor to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder (including amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07) and all other obligations under this Indenture or the Notes shall be promptly paid in full or performed, all in
accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (b) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, the same shall be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the
terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed, or failing performance of any other obligation of the Issuer to the Holders, for whatever reason, each
Guarantor shall be obligated to pay, or to perform or cause the performance of, the same immediately. An Event of Default under this Indenture or the Notes shall constitute an event of default under this Note Guarantee, and shall entitle the Holders
of Notes or the Trustee to accelerate the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder in the same manner and to the same extent as the obligations of the Issuer. 
  

Each Guarantor, by execution of the Note Guarantee, agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the
validity, regularity or enforceability of this Indenture or the Notes, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, any release of any other Guarantor, the
recovery of any judgment against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same, whether or not a Note Guarantee is affixed to any particular Note, or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a
Guarantor. Each Guarantor, by execution of the Note Guarantee, waives the benefit of diligence, presentment, demand for payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding
first against the Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenant that such Note Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes, this Indenture and such Note Guarantee. The
Note Guarantee is a guarantee of payment and not of collection. If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer or to any Guarantor, or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in
relation to the Issuer or such Guarantor, any amount paid by the Issuer or such Guarantor to the Trustee or such Holder, the Note Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect. Each Guarantor further
agrees that, as between it, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (a) subject to this Article Ten, the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article Six hereof for the
purposes of the Note Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (b) in the event of any acceleration of such obligations as provided in
Article Six hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of such Note Guarantee. 
  
 The Note Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be
filed by or against the Issuer for liquidation or reorganization, should the Issuer become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a 

  

 88 








 
receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of the Issuer’s assets, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to
be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Notes are pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee on the Notes, whether as
a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent transfer” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Notes
shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned. 
  

No shareholder, officer, director, employee or incorporator, past, present or future, or any Guarantor, as such, shall have any
personal liability under this Note Guarantee by reason of his, her or its status as such shareholder, officer, director, employee or incorporator. 
  
 SECTION 10.02 Execution and Delivery of Note Guarantee. 
  

To further evidence the Note Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01, each Guarantor hereby agrees that a notation of such Note
Guarantee, substantially in the form included in Exhibit F hereto, shall be endorsed on each Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee after this Article Ten with respect to such Guarantor becomes effective in accordance with
Section 10.04 and such Note Guarantee shall be executed by either manual or facsimile signature of an Officer of each Guarantor. The validity and enforceability of any Note Guarantee shall not be affected by the fact that it is not affixed to
any particular Note. 
  
 Each of the Guarantors
hereby agrees that its Note Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Note Guarantee. 
  
 If an Officer of a Guarantor whose signature is on this
Indenture or a Note Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticate the Note on which such Note Guarantee is endorsed or at any time thereafter, such Guarantor’s Note Guarantee of such Note shall be valid
nevertheless. 
  
 The delivery of any Note by the
Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of any Note Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantor. 
  

SECTION 10.03 Limitation of Note Guarantee. 
  
 The obligations of each Guarantor are limited to the maximum amount as shall, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed
liabilities of such Guarantor (including, without limitation, any guarantees under the Credit Agreement permitted under clause (1) of Section 4.06) and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any
other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under its Note Guarantee or 

  

 89 








 
pursuant to its contribution obligations under this Indenture, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under the Note Guarantee not constituting a
fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or similarly impermissible transaction under U.S. federal or state law. Each Guarantor that makes a payment or distribution under a Note Guarantee shall be entitled to a contribution from each other
Guarantor in a pro rata amount based on the net assets of each Guarantor, determined in accordance with GAAP. 
  
 SECTION 10.04 Additional Guarantors. 
  
 If any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor incurs any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness owing to the Issuer or another
Restricted Subsidiary), including any guarantee of any Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary (other than a guarantee of Indebtedness owing to the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary), then the Issuer shall cause such Restricted
Subsidiary to: 
  
 (1) execute and deliver to the
Trustee a supplemental indenture in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary shall issue a Note Guarantee; and 
  

(2) deliver to the Trustee an opinion of counsel (which may contain customary exceptions) that such supplemental indenture and Note
Guarantee have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Restricted Subsidiary and constitute legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligations of such Restricted Subsidiary. 
  
 Thereafter, such Restricted Subsidiary shall be a Guarantor for all purposes of this Indenture. The Issuer
may cause any other Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer to issue a Note Guarantee and become a Guarantor. At any time the Indebtedness or guarantee of Indebtedness referred to above is repaid or released without further obligation by such Restricted
Subsidiary, such Restricted Subsidiary need no longer be a Guarantor for purposes of this Section 10.04, and the Trustee shall promptly execute such documents and instrument as the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary may request to evidence
the termination of the applicable Guarantee. 
  
 The Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be required to comply with the provisions of this Section 10.04 during any Suspension Period. 
  

SECTION 10.05 Release of Guarantor. 
  
 A Guarantor shall be released from all of its obligations under its Note Guarantee if: 
  
 (i) the Guarantor has sold all of its assets or the Issuer
and its Restricted Subsidiaries have sold all of the Equity Interests of the Guarantor owned by them, in each case in a transaction in compliance with the terms of this Indenture (including Sections 4.10 and 5.01); 
  

 90 








 (ii) the Guarantor merges with or into or consolidates with, or transfers all or
substantially all of its assets to, the Issuer or another Guarantor in a transaction in compliance with Section 5.01; or 
  
 (iii) the Guarantor is designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary in compliance with the terms of this Indenture; 
  
 and in each such case, the Guarantor has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transactions have been complied with and that such release is authorized and permitted hereunder. 
  
 If all of the conditions to release contained in this
Section 10.05 have been satisfied, the Trustee shall execute any documents reasonably requested by the Issuer or any Guarantor in order to evidence the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under its Note Guarantee endorsed on the
Notes and under this Article Ten. 
  
 SECTION 10.06 Waiver of
Subrogation. 
  
 Each Guarantor, by execution
of its Note Guarantee, waives to the extent permitted by law any claim or other rights which it may now or hereafter acquire against the Issuer that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Guarantor’s obligations
under such Note Guarantee and this Indenture, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, indemnification, and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of any Holder against the Issuer, whether or not
such claim, remedy or right arises in equity, or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from the Issuer, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other
manner, payment on account of such claim or other rights. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor in violation of the preceding sentence and the Notes shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall have been deemed to have been paid to
such Guarantor for the benefit of, and held in trust for the benefit of, the Holders of the Notes, and shall forthwith be paid to the Trustee for the benefit of such Holders to be credited and applied upon the Notes, whether matured or unmatured, in
accordance with the terms of this Indenture. Each Guarantor, by execution of its Note Guarantee, shall acknowledge that it shall receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Indenture and that the waiver
set forth in this Section 10.06 is knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

 [FORM OF REVERSE OF NOTE] 
  
 MASSEY ENERGY GROUP 
  
 6.875% SENIOR NOTE DUE 2013 
  
 1. Interest. MASSEY ENERGY COMPANY, a company incorporated under the laws of Delaware (the “Company”), promises to pay, until the
principal hereof is paid or made available for payment, interest on the principal amount set forth on the face hereof at a rate of 6.875% per annum. Interest hereon shall accrue from and including the most recent date to which interest has been
paid or, if no interest has been paid, from and including December 21, 2005 to but excluding the date on which interest is paid. Interest shall be payable in arrears on each June 15 and December 15, commencing June 15, 2006.
Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The Company shall pay interest on overdue principal and on overdue interest (to the full extent permitted by law) at a rate of 2.0% per annum.

  
 2. Method of Payment. If a Holder has given wire
transfer instructions to the Issuer at least ten Business Days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date, the Issuer will make all payments on such Holder’s Notes by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified in
those instructions. The Company shall pay interest hereon (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders at the close of business on the June 1 or December 1 next preceding the interest payment date (whether or not a
Business Day). Holders must surrender Notes to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments. The Company shall pay principal and interest in money of the United States of America that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and
private debts. Interest may be paid by check mailed to the Holder entitled thereto at the address indicated on the register maintained by the Registrar for the Notes. 
  
 3. Paying Agent and Registrar. Initially, Wilmington Trust Company (the “Trustee”) shall act as a
Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice. The Company or any of its Affiliates may act as Paying Agent or Registrar. 
  
 4. Indenture. This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Company, designated as its 6.875% Senior
Notes due 2013 (herein called the “Notes”). The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of December 21, 2005 (the “Indenture”) among the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee. This is one of an issue of
Notes of the Company issued, or to be issued, under the Indenture. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S. Code
§§ 77aaa-77bbbb), as in effect on the date of the Indenture (the “Act”). The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the Act for a statement of them. To the extent any
provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. 

  

 A-3 








 
Capitalized and certain other terms used herein and not otherwise defined have the meanings set forth in the Indenture. The Company shall be entitled to
issue Additional Notes pursuant to Section 2.19 of the Indenture. All Notes issued under the Indenture are treated as a single class of securities under the Indenture. The Notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company. 
  
 5. Optional Redemption. The Company, at its option, may redeem the
Notes, in whole at any time, or in part from time to time on or after December 15, 2009 upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount thereof) set forth below,
together, in each case, with accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date, if redeemed during the twelve month period beginning on December 15 of each year listed below: 
  

				
	 Year

	  	Redemption Price

	 
	 2009
	  	103.438	%
	 2010
	  	101.719	%
	 2011 and thereafter
	  	100.000	%

  
 At any time prior to
December 15, 2008, the Issuer may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes with the net cash proceeds of one or more Qualified Equity Offerings at a redemption price equal to 106.875% of the principal amount of the Notes
to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the Redemption Date; provided that (1) at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under the Indenture remains outstanding immediately after the
occurrence of such redemption and (2) the redemption occurs within 180 days of the date of the closing of any such Qualified Equity Offering. 
  
 6. Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption shall be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder
of Notes to be redeemed at his registered address. On and after the Redemption Date, unless the Company defaults in making the redemption payment, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption, unless the Company shall
fail to redeem any Notes. 
  
 7. Offers to Purchase. The
Indenture provides that upon the occurrence of a Change of Control or an Asset Sale and subject to further limitations contained therein, the Company shall make an offer to purchase outstanding Notes in accordance with the procedures set forth in
the Indenture. 
  
 8. [Reserved]. 
  
 9. Registration Rights. Pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement
among the Company, the Guarantors, UBS Securities LLC, Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc. and PNC Capital Markets LLC as Initial Purchasers of the Notes, the Company and the Guarantors shall be obligated to consummate an exchange offer pursuant to
which the Holder of this Note shall have the right to exchange this Note for notes of a separate series issued under the Indenture (or a trust indenture substantially identical to the Indenture in accordance with the terms of the Registration


  

 A-4 








 
Rights Agreement) which have been registered under the Securities Act, in like principal amount and having substantially identical terms as the Notes. The
Holders shall be entitled to receive certain additional interest payments in the event such exchange offer is not consummated and upon certain other conditions, all pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement.

  
 10. Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The Notes are in
registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. A Holder may transfer or exchange Notes in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate
endorsements and transfer documents and to pay to it any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer of or exchange any Notes or portion of a Note selected for redemption, or register
the transfer of or exchange any Notes for a period of 15 days before a mailing of notice of redemption. 
  
 11. Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Holder of this Note may be treated as the owner of this Note for all purposes. 
  
 12. Unclaimed Money. If money for the payment of principal or interest
remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall pay the money back to the Company at its written request. After that, Holders entitled to the money must look to the Company for payment as general creditors unless an
“abandoned property” law designates another Person. 
  
 13. Amendment, Supplement, Waiver, Etc. The Company, any Guarantors and the Trustee may, without the consent of the Holders of any outstanding Notes, amend, waive or supplement the Indenture or the Notes for certain specified
purposes, including, among other things, curing ambiguities, defects or inconsistencies, maintaining the qualification of the Indenture under the Act and making any change that does not materially and adversely affect the rights of any Holder. Other
amendments and modifications of the Indenture or the Notes may be made by the Company, any Guarantors and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes, subject to
certain exceptions requiring the consent of the Holders of the particular Notes to be affected. 
  
 14. Restrictive Covenants. The Indenture imposes certain limitations on the ability of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries to, among other

then outstanding plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of acceleration and the same shall become immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in clause (7) or (8) of Section 6.01 of the Indenture occurs with

the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders notice of any continuing default (except a default in payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest or a default in
the observance or performance of any of the obligations of the Company under Article Five of the Indenture) if it determines that withholding notice is in their best interests. 
  
 17. Trustee Dealings with Company. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept
deposits from, and perform services for the Company or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates, as if it were not Trustee. 
  
 18. No Recourse Against Others. No past, present or future director, officer, employee, partner, incorporator or shareholder, of the Company or any
Guarantor or any corporate successor thereto shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes, the Note Guarantees, the Indenture or for a claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation.
Each Holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes. 
  
 19. Discharge. The Company’s obligations pursuant to the Indenture shall be discharged, except for obligations
pursuant to certain sections thereof, subject to the terms of the Indenture, upon the payment of all the Notes or upon the irrevocable deposit with the Trustee of money in United States dollars or U.S. Government Obligations sufficient to pay when
