Charge Coverage Ratio Calculation Date”), then the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be
calculated giving pro forma effect to such incurrence, assumption, guarantee, redemption,

For purposes of making the computation referred to above, Investments, acquisitions,

For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to a transaction,
the pro forma calculations shall be made in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting

pro forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on
the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Calculation Date had been the applicable rate for the entire period
(taking into account any Hedging Obligations applicable to such Indebtedness). Interest on a
Capitalized Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by
a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Issuer to be the rate of interest implicit in
such Capitalized Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP. For purposes of making the computation
referred to above, interest on any Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility computed on a pro
forma basis shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the
applicable period except as set forth in the first paragraph of this definition. Interest on
Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime
or similar rate, a eurocurrency interbank offered rate, or other rate, shall be deemed to have been
based upon the rate actually chosen, or, if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as the
Issuer may designate.

consent or the date of the most recent list of Holders furnished to the Trustee prior to such
solicitation.

payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money
held by it to the Trustee. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held
by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Issuer
or a Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for the money. If the Issuer or a Subsidiary acts

to the Depositary in accordance with the Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to
credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in another Global Note in an amount
equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged and (2) instructions given
in accordance with the Applicable Procedures containing information regarding the
Participant account to be credited with such increase or (B) (1) a written order from a
Participant or an Indirect Participant given to the Depositary in accordance with the
Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to cause to be issued a Definitive Note in an
amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged and (2) instructions
given by the Depositary to the Registrar containing information regarding the Person in

upon the transfer or exchange of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Temporary Global
Note prior to (A) the expiration of the Restricted Period and (B) the receipt by the
Registrar of any certificates required pursuant to Rule 903. Upon consummation of an
Exchange Offer by the Issuer in accordance with Section 2.06(f) hereof, the requirements of
this Section 2.06(b)(ii) shall be deemed to have been satisfied upon receipt by the
Registrar of the instructions contained in the Letter of Transmittal delivered by the Holder

the requirements for transfer or exchange of beneficial interests in Global Notes contained
in this Indenture and the Notes or otherwise applicable under the Securities Act, the
Trustee shall adjust the principal amount of the relevant Global Note(s) pursuant to Section
2.06(h) hereof.




(iii) Transfer of Beneficial Interests to Another Restricted Global Note. A
beneficial interest in any Restricted Global Note may be transferred to a Person who takes

the transfer complies with the requirements of Section 2.06(b)(ii) hereof and the Registrar

Beneficial Interests in an Unrestricted Global Note. A beneficial interest in any
Restricted Global Note may be exchanged by any holder thereof for a beneficial interest in
an Unrestricted Global Note or transferred to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the
form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note if the exchange or transfer
complies with the requirements of Section 2.06(b)(ii) hereof and:




(A) such exchange or transfer is effected pursuant to the Exchange Offer in
accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement and the holder of the beneficial
interest to be transferred, in the case of an exchange, or the transferee, in the
case of a transfer, certifies in the applicable Letter of Transmittal that it is not
(1) a Broker-Dealer, (2) a Person participating in the distribution of the Exchange

Every replacement Note is a contractual obligation of the Issuer and shall be entitled to all
of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued
hereunder.



Section 2.08 Outstanding Notes.



The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for
those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a
Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described
in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.09 hereof, a Note does
not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds the Note.



If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding unless the
Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a bona fide purchaser.



If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01 hereof, it ceases to
be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue.



If the Paying Agent (other than the Issuer, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof)
holds, on a redemption date or maturity date, money sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date,
then on and after that date such Notes shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding and shall cease
to accrue interest.

Section 2.09 Treasury Notes.



In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have
concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Issuer, or by any Affiliate of
the Issuer, shall be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of
determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or
consent, only Notes that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so
disregarded. Notes so owned which have been pledged in good faith shall not be disregarded if the
pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right to deliver any such
direction, waiver or consent with respect to the Notes and that the pledgee is not the Issuer or
any obligor upon the Notes or any Affiliate of the Issuer or of such other obligor.



Section 2.10 Temporary Notes.



Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the
Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary
Notes shall be substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the
Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the
Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate
definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes.



Holders and beneficial holders, as the case may be, of temporary Notes shall be entitled to
all of the benefits accorded to Holders, or beneficial holders, respectively, of Notes under this
Indenture.



Section 2.11 Cancellation.



The Issuer at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and
Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of
transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee or, at the direction of the Trustee, the Registrar or
the Paying Agent and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer,
exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall destroy cancelled Notes (subject to the
record retention requirement of the Exchange Act). Certification of the destruction of all
cancelled Notes shall be delivered to the Issuer. The Issuer may not issue new Notes to replace
Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.



Section 2.12 Defaulted Interest.



If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it shall pay the defaulted
interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted
interest to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, in each case at the
rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee in
writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the
proposed payment, and at the same time the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money
equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such defaulted interest or shall
make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed
payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to
such defaulted interest as provided in this Section 2.12. The Trustee shall fix or cause to be
fixed each such special record date and payment date; provided that no such special record
date shall be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest. The
Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer of such special record date. At least 15 days before the
special record date, the Issuer (or, upon the written request of the Issuer, the Trustee in the
name and at the expense of the Issuer) shall mail or cause to be mailed, first-class postage
prepaid, or delivered by electronic transmission to each Holder a notice at his or her address as
it appears in the Note Register that states the special record date, the related payment date and
the amount of such interest to be paid.


 


-48-









 





Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.12 and for greater certainty, each Note
delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of
any other Note shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were
carried by such other Note.



Section 2.13 CUSIP Numbers.



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



ARTICLE 3




REDEMPTION




Section 3.01 Notices to Trustee.



If the Issuer elects to redeem Notes pursuant to Section 3.07 hereof, it shall furnish to the
Trustee, at least 2 Business Days before notice of redemption is required to be mailed or delivered
by electronic transmission or caused to be mailed or delivered by electronic transmission to
Holders pursuant to Section 3.03 hereof but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, an
Officer’s Certificate setting forth (i) the paragraph or subparagraph of such Note and/or Section
of this Indenture pursuant to which the redemption shall occur, (ii) the redemption date, (iii) the
principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (iv) the redemption price.



Section 3.02 Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed or Purchased.



If less than all of the Notes, as the case may be, are to be redeemed or purchased in an offer

Notes are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the
principal national securities exchange on which the Notes are listed, (b) on a pro rata basis to
the extent practicable or (c) by lot or by such other similar method in accordance with the
procedures of DTC. In the event of partial redemption or purchase by lot, the particular Notes to
be redeemed or purchased shall be selected, unless otherwise provided herein, not less than 30 nor
more than 60 days prior to the redemption date by the Trustee from the outstanding Notes not
previously called for redemption or purchase.



The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer in writing of the Notes selected for redemption
or purchase and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption or purchase, the principal
amount thereof to be redeemed or purchased. Notes and portions of Notes selected shall be in
amounts of $2,000 or whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof; no Notes of $2,000 or less can be
redeemed in part, except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed or purchased, the
entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder, even if not $2,000 or a multiple of $1,000
in excess thereof, shall be redeemed or purchased. Except as provided in the preceding sentence,
provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption or purchase also apply to
portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase.

Section 3.03 Notice of Redemption.



Subject to Section 3.09 hereof, the Issuer shall mail or cause to be mailed by first-class
mail or delivered by electronic transmission notices of redemption at least 30 days but not more
than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at such Holder’s
registered address or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of DTC, except that redemption
notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in
connection with Article 8 or Article 11 hereof. Except as set forth in Section 3.07(b) hereof,
notices of redemption may not be conditional.



The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed and shall state:



(a) the redemption date;



(b) the redemption price;




(c) if any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the portion of the principal amount of
that Note that is to be redeemed and that, after the redemption date upon surrender of such
Note, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the
original Note representing the same indebtedness to the extent not redeemed will be issued
in the name of the Holder of the Notes upon cancellation of the original Note;



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




(e) that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect
the redemption price;




(f) that, unless the Issuer defaults in making such redemption payment, interest on
Notes called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date;




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




(h) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP
number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes; and




(i) if in connection with a redemption pursuant to Section 3.07(b) hereof, any
condition to such redemption.



At the Issuer’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Issuer’s name
and at its expense; provided that the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least
2 Business Days before notice of redemption is required to be mailed or caused to be mailed to
Holders pursuant to this Section 3.03 (unless a shorter notice shall be agreed to by the Trustee),
an Officer’s Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting forth the
information to be stated in such notice as provided in the preceding paragraph.



Section 3.04 Effect of Notice of Redemption.



Once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof, Notes called for
redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the redemption date at the redemption price
(except as provided for in Section 3.07(b)). The notice, if mailed in a manner herein provided,
shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any
case, failure to give such notice by mail or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Note
designated for redemption in whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for
the redemption of any other Note. Subject to Section 3.05 hereof, on and after the redemption
date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption.

Section 3.05 Deposit of Redemption or Purchase Price.



Prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the redemption or purchase date, the Issuer shall
deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption or
purchase price of and accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on all
Notes to be redeemed or purchased on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall promptly
return to the Issuer any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Issuer in
excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption price of, and accrued and unpaid interest on,
all Notes to be redeemed or purchased.



If the Issuer complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after the
redemption or purchase date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes
called for redemption or purchase. If a Note is redeemed or purchased on or after a Record Date
but on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, then any accrued and unpaid interest to the
redemption or purchase date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at
the close of business on such Record Date. If any Note called for redemption or purchase shall not
be so paid upon surrender for redemption or purchase because of the failure of the Issuer to comply
with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption
or purchase date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest accrued to
the redemption or purchase date not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate
provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof.



Section 3.06 Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part.



Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed or purchased in part, the Issuer shall issue and the
Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder at the expense of the Issuer a new Note equal in
principal amount to the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered representing the
same indebtedness to the extent not redeemed or purchased; provided that each new Note will
be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. It is
understood that, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, only an Authentication
Order and not an Opinion of Counsel or Officer’s Certificate is required for the Trustee to
authenticate such new Note.



Section 3.07 Optional Redemption.



(a) At any time prior to November 15, 2013, the Issuer may redeem all or a part of the Notes,
upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice mailed by first-class mail or delivered

Holder appearing in the security register, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of
principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest
thereon and Additional Interest, if any, to the applicable Redemption Date, subject to the right of
Holders of Notes of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant
Interest Payment Date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on November 15, of each
of the years indicated below:

basis, if applicable), or, if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes and Pari
Passu Indebtedness tendered in response to the Asset Sale Offer. Payment for any Notes so
purchased shall be made in the same manner as interest payments are made.



(c) If the Purchase Date is on or after a Record Date and on or before the related
Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, up to
but excluding the Purchase Date, shall be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at
the close of business on such Record Date, and no additional interest shall be payable to Holders
who tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer.

The notice shall contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender

statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased;




(viii) that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness
surrendered by the holders thereof exceeds the Offer Amount, the Trustee shall select the

or Officer’s Certificate is required for the Trustee to authenticate and mail or deliver such new
Note) in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered representing
the same indebtedness to the extent not repurchased; provided, that each such new Note
shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple thereof. Any Note not so accepted
shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Issuer to the Holder thereof. The Issuer shall
publicly announce the results of the Asset Sale Offer on or as soon as practicable after the
Purchase Date.

The Issuer and each of the Guarantors covenant (to the extent that they may lawfully do so)
that they shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the

Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (18) shall cease to be deemed incurred or
outstanding for purposes of this clause (18) but shall be deemed incurred for the purposes

Restricted Subsidiary could have incurred such Indebtedness under Section 4.09(a) hereof
without reliance on this clause (18));

Issuer to the extent described in clause (4) of Section 4.07(b) hereof.


 


-68-









 





(c) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.09:




(1) in the event that an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock
(or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of permitted
Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock described in clauses (1) through (21) of
Section 4.09(b) hereof or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.09(a) hereof, the
Issuer, in its sole discretion, shall classify or reclassify such item of Indebtedness,
Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) and shall only be required to
include the amount and type of such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock in
one of the above clauses; provided that all Indebtedness outstanding under the
Credit Facilities on the Issue Date shall be treated as incurred on the Issue Date under
clause (1) of Section 4.09(b) hereof; and




(2) at the time of incurrence, the Issuer shall be entitled to divide and classify an
item of Indebtedness in more than one of the types of Indebtedness described in Sections
4.09(a) and 4.09(b) hereof.



Accrual of interest or dividends, the accretion of accreted value, the accretion or
amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional
Indebtedness and the payment of dividends in the form of additional Disqualified Stock or Preferred
Stock, as applicable, shall in each case not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness,
Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock for purposes of this Section 4.09.



For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the
incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated
in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on
the date such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term debt, or first committed, in the case
of revolving credit debt; provided that if such Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other
Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable
U.S. dollar denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange
rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar-denominated restriction shall be
deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness
does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced.



The principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred
in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the
currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such respective Indebtedness is
denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.



Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any
Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, incur any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) that
is subordinated or junior in right of payment to any Indebtedness of the Issuer or such Guarantor,
as the case may be, unless such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the
Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee to the extent and in the same manner as such Indebtedness is
subordinated to other Indebtedness of the Issuer or such Guarantor, as the case may be. For the
purposes of this Indenture, Indebtedness that is unsecured is not deemed to be subordinated or
junior to Secured Indebtedness merely because it is unsecured, and Senior Indebtedness is not
deemed to be subordinated or junior to any other Senior Indebtedness merely because it has a junior
priority with respect to the same collateral.

Section 4.10 Asset Sales.



(a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to
consummate an Asset Sale, unless:




(1) the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives
consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value (as
determined in good faith by the Issuer) of the assets sold or otherwise disposed of; and




(2) except in the case of a Permitted Asset Swap, at least 75% of the consideration
therefor received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the
form of cash or Cash Equivalents; provided that the amount of:




(A) any liabilities (as reflected in the Issuer’s or such Restricted
Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet or in the footnotes thereto, or if incurred
or accrued subsequent to the date of such balance sheet, such liabilities that would
have been shown on the Issuer’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s balance sheet or in
the footnotes thereto if such incurrence or accrual had taken place on the date of
such balance sheet) of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, other than
liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes, that are assumed by
the transferee of any such assets and for which the Issuer and all of its Restricted
Subsidiaries have been validly released by all creditors in writing,




(B) any securities, notes or other similar obligations received by the Issuer
or such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by the Issuer
or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash (to the extent of the cash received) within
180 days following the closing of such Asset Sale, and




(C) any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Issuer or such
Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate fair market value,
taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to
this clause (C) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed 2.5% of Total Assets
at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-cash Consideration, with the fair
market value of each item of Designated Non-cash Consideration being measured at the
time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value,




shall be deemed to be cash for purposes of this provision and for no other purpose.



(b) Within 450 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale, the Issuer or
such Restricted Subsidiary, at its option, may apply the Net Proceeds from such Asset Sale,



(1) to permanently reduce:




(A) Obligations under the Senior Credit Facilities; and to correspondingly
reduce commitments with respect thereto;




(B) Obligations under Senior Indebtedness that is secured by a Lien, which Lien
is permitted by this Indenture, and to correspondingly reduce commitments with
respect thereto;




(C) Obligations under other Senior Indebtedness (and to correspondingly reduce
commitments with respect thereto), provided that, to the extent the Issuer
reduces Obligations under such Senior Indebtedness, the Issuer shall reduce (or
offer to reduce as applicable) Obligations under the Notes on a pro rata basis as
provided under Section 3.07 hereof through open-market purchases (to the extent such
purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof) or offer to purchase Notes by making an
offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth under Section 4.10(c) hereof) to
all Holders to purchase their Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus
the amount of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the amount of Notes that would
otherwise be prepaid; or


 


-70-









 






(D) Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor, other than
Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or another Restricted Subsidiary;




(2) to make (A) an Investment in any one or more businesses, provided that such
Investment in any business is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock and results in
the Issuer or another of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, owning an amount
of the Capital Stock of such business such that it constitutes a Restricted Subsidiary, (B)
capital expenditures or (C) acquisitions of other assets, in each of (A), (B) and (C), used
or useful in a Similar Business, or




(3) to make an investment in (A) any one or more businesses, provided that such
Investment in any business is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock and results in
the Issuer or another of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, owning an amount
of the Capital Stock of such business such that it constitutes a Restricted Subsidiary, (B)
properties or (C) acquisitions of other assets that, in each of (A), (B) and (C), replace
the businesses, properties and/or assets that are the subject of such Asset Sale;



provided that, in the case of clauses (2) and (3) above, a binding commitment shall be
treated as a permitted application of the Net Proceeds from the date of such commitment so long as
the Issuer, or such other Restricted Subsidiary enters into such commitment with the good faith
expectation that such Net Proceeds shall be applied to satisfy such commitment within 180 days of
such commitment (an “Acceptable Commitment”) and, in the event any Acceptable Commitment is
later cancelled or terminated for any reason before the Net Proceeds are applied in connection
therewith, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary enters into another Acceptable Commitment (a
“Second Commitment”) within 180 days of such cancellation or termination; provided
further that if any Second Commitment is later cancelled or terminated for any reason
before such Net Proceeds are applied, then such Net Proceeds shall constitute Excess Proceeds.



(c) Any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale that are not invested or applied as provided and
within the time period set forth in Section 4.10(b) shall be deemed to constitute “Excess
Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $100.0 million, the Issuer
shall make an offer to all Holders of the Notes and, if required by the terms of any Indebtedness
that is pari passu with the Notes (“Pari Passu Indebtedness”), to the holders of such Pari
Passu Indebtedness (an “Asset Sale Offer”), to purchase the maximum aggregate principal
amount of the Notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness that is an integral multiple of $2,000 that
may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of
the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to
the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this
Indenture. The Issuer shall commence an Asset Sale Offer with respect to Excess Proceeds within
ten Business Days after the date that Excess Proceeds exceed $100.0 million by mailing the notice
required pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, with a copy to the Trustee.



To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered
pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Issuer may use any remaining
Excess Proceeds for general corporate purposes, subject to other covenants contained in this
Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes or the Pari Passu Indebtedness surrendered
by such holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes
and such Pari Passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the accreted value or principal amount
of the Notes or such Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered. Upon completion of any such Asset Sale
Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero.


 


-71-









 





(d) Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds pursuant to this Section 4.10, the
holder of such Net Proceeds may apply such Net Proceeds temporarily to reduce Indebtedness
outstanding under a revolving credit facility or otherwise invest such Net Proceeds in any manner
not prohibited by this Indenture.



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



Section 4.11 Transactions with Affiliates.



(a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any
payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or
purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract,
agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of
the Issuer (each of the foregoing, an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate payments
or consideration in excess of $20.0 million, unless:




(1) such Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are not materially less favorable to
the Issuer or its relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in
a comparable transaction by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated
Person on an arm’s-length basis; and




(2) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or
series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate payments or consideration in
excess of $50.0 million, a resolution adopted by the majority of the board of directors of
the Issuer approving such Affiliate Transaction and set forth in an Officer’s Certificate
certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (1) of this Section 4.11(a).

had not been paid, when calculating Net Income, and (B) without giving effect to clause (h)
of the definition of EBITDA) (plus any unpaid management, consulting, monitoring and
advisory fees and related expenses within such amount accrued in any prior year) and the
termination fees pursuant to the Sponsor Management Agreement not to exceed the amount set
forth in the Sponsor Management Agreement as in effect on the Issue Date;

may be, delivers to the Trustee a letter from an Independent Financial Advisor stating that
such transaction is fair to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point
of view or stating that such terms are not materially less favorable to the Issuer or its
relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable
transaction by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person on an
arm’s-length basis;




(6) any agreement as in effect as of the Issue Date, or any amendment thereto (so long
as any such amendment is not disadvantageous to the Holders when taken as a whole as
compared to the applicable agreement as in effect on the Issue Date);




(7) the existence of, or the performance by the Issuer or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries of its obligations under the terms of, any stockholders agreement or the
equivalent (including any registration rights agreement or purchase agreement related

enter into thereafter; provided, however, that the existence of, or the
performance by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of obligations under any
future amendment to any such existing agreement or under any similar agreement entered into
after the Issue Date shall only be permitted by this clause (7) to the extent that the terms
of any such amendment or new agreement are not otherwise disadvantageous to the Holders when
taken as a whole;



(8) [Reserved];




(9) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers, or purchasers or sellers of goods
or services, in each case in the ordinary course of business and otherwise in compliance
with the terms of this Indenture which are fair to the Issuer and its Restricted

faith; and


 


-73-

incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien (except Permitted Liens) that secures obligations under
any Indebtedness or any related Guarantee, on any asset or property of the Issuer or any Guarantor,
or any income or profits therefrom, or assign or convey any right to receive income therefrom,
unless:




(1) in the case of Liens securing Subordinated Indebtedness, the Notes and related
Guarantees are secured by a Lien on such property, assets or proceeds that is senior in

Subject to Article 5 hereof, the Issuer shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to
preserve and keep in full force and effect (i) its corporate existence, and the corporate,

respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of the Issuer or
any such Restricted Subsidiary and (ii) the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises
of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided that the Issuer shall not be
required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the corporate, partnership or other
existence of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, if the Issuer in good faith shall determine that
the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Issuer and
its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.



Section 4.14 Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control.



(a) If a Change of Control occurs, unless the Issuer has previously or concurrently mailed a
redemption notice with respect to all the outstanding Notes as described under Section 3.07 hereof,
the Issuer shall make an offer to purchase all of the Notes pursuant to the offer described below
(the “Change of Control Offer”) at a price in cash (the “Change of Control
Payment”) equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid
interest and Additional Interest, if any, to the date of purchase, subject to the right of Holders
of the Notes of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest
Payment Date. Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Issuer shall send notice of such Change of Control Offer by first-class mail or by
electronic transmission, with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder of Notes to the address of such
Holder appearing in the security register with a copy to the Trustee or otherwise in accordance
with the procedures of DTC, with the following information:




(1) that a Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.14 and that
all Notes properly tendered pursuant to such Change of Control Offer will be accepted for
payment by the Issuer;


 


-74-









 






(2) the purchase price and the purchase date, which will be no earlier than 30 days nor
later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (the “Change of Control Payment
Date”);




(3) that any Note not properly tendered will remain outstanding and continue to accrue
interest;




(4) that unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment,
all Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer will cease to accrue
interest on the Change of Control Payment Date;




(5) that Holders electing to have any Notes purchased pursuant to a Change of Control
Offer will be required to surrender such Notes, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to
Elect Purchase” on the reverse of such Notes completed, to the paying agent specified in the
notice at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third
Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date;




(6) that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their tendered Notes and their election
to require the Issuer to purchase such Notes, provided that the paying agent
receives, not later than the close of business on the expiration date of the Change of
Control Offer, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of
the Holder of the Notes, the principal amount of Notes tendered for purchase, and a
statement that such Holder is withdrawing its tendered Notes and its election to have such
Notes purchased;




(7) that if the Issuer is redeeming less than all of the Notes, the Holders of the
remaining Notes will be issued new Notes and such new Notes will be equal in principal
amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered. The unpurchased portion of the
Notes must be equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple thereof;

that the Change of Control Offer is conditional upon the occurrence of such Change of
Control.



The notice, if mailed in a manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been
given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. If (a) the notice is mailed in a manner
herein provided and (b) any Holder fails to receive such notice or a Holder receives such notice
but it is defective, such Holder’s failure to receive such notice or such defect shall not affect
the validity of the proceedings for the purchase of the Notes as to all other Holders that properly
received such notice without defect. The Issuer shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1
under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such
laws or regulations are applicable in
connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent
that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this
Section 4.14, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall
not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.14 by virtue thereof.

Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and
otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 4.14 applicable to a Change
of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn
under such Change of Control Offer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Change of
Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditional upon such Change of
Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of making of
the Change of Control Offer.



(d) Other than as specifically provided in this Section 4.14, any purchase pursuant to this
Section 4.14 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.02, 3.05 and 3.06 hereof.



Section 4.15 Limitation on Guarantees of Indebtedness by Restricted Subsidiaries.



The Issuer shall not permit any of its Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries that are Restricted
Subsidiaries (and non-Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries if such non-Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries guarantee
other capital markets debt securities), other than a Guarantor or a Foreign Subsidiary, to
guarantee the payment of any Indebtedness of the Issuer or any other Guarantor unless:




(1) such Restricted Subsidiary within 30 days executes and delivers a supplemental
indenture to this Indenture, the form of which is attached as Exhibit D hereto,
providing for a Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary, except that with respect to a
guarantee of Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Guarantor:




(a) if the Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee are subordinated in right of
payment to such Indebtedness, the Guarantee under the supplemental indenture shall
be subordinated to such Restricted Subsidiary’s guarantee with respect to such
Indebtedness substantially to the same extent as the Notes are subordinated to such
Indebtedness; and




(b) if such Indebtedness is by its express terms subordinated in right of
payment to the Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee, any such guarantee by such
Restricted Subsidiary with respect to such Indebtedness shall be subordinated in
right of payment to such Guarantee substantially to the same extent as such
Indebtedness is subordinated to the Notes;




(2) such Restricted Subsidiary waives and shall not in any manner whatsoever claim or
take the benefit or advantage of, any rights of reimbursement, indemnity or subrogation or
any other rights against the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary as a result of any
payment by such Restricted Subsidiary under its Guarantee; and


 


-76-









 






(3) such Restricted Subsidiary shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to
the effect that:




(a) such Guarantee has been duly executed and authorized; and




(b) such Guarantee constitutes a valid, binding and enforceable obligation of
such Restricted Subsidiary, except insofar as enforcement thereof may be limited by
bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws (including, without limitation, all laws
relating to fraudulent transfers) and except insofar as enforcement thereof is
subject to general principles of equity;



provided that this Section 4.15 shall not be applicable to any guarantee of any Restricted
Subsidiary that existed at the time such Person became a Restricted Subsidiary and was not incurred
in connection with, or in contemplation of, such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary.



Section 4.16 Discharge and Suspension of Covenants.



(a) If after the Issue Date (i) the Notes have Investment Grade Ratings from both Rating
Agencies and (ii) no Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture then, beginning on
that day and continuing at all times thereafter regardless of any subsequent changes in the rating
of the Notes, Section 4.07 hereof, Section 4.08 hereof, Section 4.09 hereof, Section 4.10 hereof,
Section 4.11 hereof, Section 4.15 hereof and clause (4) of Section 5.01 hereof shall no longer be
applicable to the Notes.



(b) During any period of time that: (i) the Notes have Investment Grade Ratings from both
Rating Agencies and (ii) no Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture (the
occurrence of the events described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) being collectively
referred to as a “Covenant Suspension Event”), the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries
shall not be subject to Section 4.14 hereof (the “Suspended Covenant”).



(c) In the event that the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to the
Suspended Covenant under this Indenture for any period of time as a result of the foregoing, and on
any subsequent date one or both of the Rating Agencies (i) withdraw their Investment Grade Rating
or downgrade the rating assigned to the Notes below an Investment Grade Rating and/or (ii) the
Issuer or any of its Affiliates enter into an agreement to effect a transaction that would result
in a Change of Control and one or more of the Rating Agencies indicate that if consummated, such
transaction (alone or together with any related recapitalization or refinancing transactions) would
cause such Rating Agency to withdraw its Investment Grade Rating or downgrade the ratings assigned
to the Notes below an Investment Grade Rating, then the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries
shall thereafter again be subject to the Suspended Covenant under this Indenture with respect to
future events, including, without limitation, a proposed transaction described in clause (ii).



(d) The Issuer shall deliver promptly to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate notifying it of
any such occurrence under this Section 4.16.

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES




Section 6.01 Events of Default.

(1) default in payment when due and payable, upon redemption, acceleration or
otherwise, of principal of, or premium, if any, on the Notes;

by which there is secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Issuer or

any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or a
Restricted Subsidiary, whether such Indebtedness or guarantee now exists or is created after
the issuance of the Notes, if both:




(a) such default either results from the failure to pay any principal of such
Indebtedness at its stated final maturity (after giving effect to any applicable
grace periods) or relates to an obligation other than the obligation to pay
principal of any such Indebtedness at its stated final maturity and results in the
holder or holders of such Indebtedness causing such Indebtedness to become due prior
to its stated maturity; and




(b) the principal amount of such Indebtedness, together with the principal
amount of any other such Indebtedness in default for failure to pay principal at
stated final maturity (after giving effect to any applicable grace periods), or the

one time outstanding;




(5) failure by the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary to pay final judgments
aggregating in excess of $100.0 million, which final judgments remain unpaid, undischarged

event such judgment is covered by insurance, an enforcement proceeding has been commenced by
any creditor upon such judgment or decree which is not promptly stayed;


 


-80-

or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant
Subsidiary, pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:

(ii) consents to the institution of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings
against it, or the filing by it of a petition or answer or consent seeking

Law that:




(i) is for relief against the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that
is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken
together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, in a proceeding in which the
Issuer or any such Restricted Subsidiaries, that is a Significant Subsidiary or any
group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a
Significant Subsidiary, is to be adjudicated bankrupt or insolvent;




(ii) appoints a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or other

(8) the Guarantee of any Significant Subsidiary shall for any reason cease to be in
full force and effect or be declared null and void or any responsible officer of any
Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary, as the case may be, denies that it has any
further liability under its Guarantee or gives notice to such effect, other than by reason
of the termination of this Indenture or the release of any such Guarantee in accordance with
this Indenture.


 


-81-









 





(b) In the event of any Event of Default specified in clause (4) of Section 6.01(a)
hereof, such Event of Default and all consequences thereof (excluding any resulting payment
default, other than as a result of acceleration of the Notes) shall be annulled, waived and
rescinded, automatically and without any action by the Trustee or the Holders, if within 20 days
after such Event of Default arose:




(1) the Indebtedness or guarantee that is the basis for such Event of Default has been
discharged; or




(2) holders thereof have rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or action (as the
case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default; or



(3) the default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured.



Section 6.02 Acceleration.



If any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (6) or (7) of
Section 6.01(a) hereof) occurs and is continuing under this Indenture, the Trustee or the Holders
of at least 30% in principal amount of the then total outstanding Notes may declare the principal,
premium, if any, interest and any other monetary obligations on all the then outstanding Notes to
be due and payable immediately. Upon the effectiveness of such declaration, such principal and
interest shall be due and payable immediately. The Trustee shall have no obligation to accelerate
the Notes if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines
acceleration is not in the best interest of the Holders of the Notes.



Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising under clause (6) or
(7) of Section 6.01(a) hereof, all outstanding Notes shall be due and payable immediately without
further action or notice.



The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by
written notice to the Trustee may on behalf of all of the Holders rescind an acceleration and its
consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing
Events of Default (except nonpayment of principal, interest, Additional Interest, if any, or
premium that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or waived.



Section 6.03 Other Remedies.



If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy
to collect the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes or to enforce the
performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture.



The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not
produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of a Note
in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or
remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are
cumulative to the extent permitted by law.



Section 6.04 Waiver of Past Defaults.



Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding
Notes by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing
Default and its consequences hereunder, except a continuing Default in the payment of the principal
of, premium, if any, Additional Interest, if any, or interest on, any Note held by a non-consenting
Holder (including in connection with an Asset Sale Offer or a Change of Control Offer); provided, subject
to Section 6.02 hereof, that the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then
outstanding Notes may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment
default that resulted from such acceleration; provided further such rescission
would not conflict with any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Upon any such waiver,
such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to
have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any
subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.


 


-82-









 





Section 6.05 Control by Majority.



Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then total outstanding Notes may direct the
time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of
exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow
any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or that the Trustee determines is unduly
prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder of a Note or that would involve the Trustee in
personal liability.



Section 6.06 Limitation on Suits.



Subject to Section 6.07 hereof, no Holder of a Note may pursue any remedy with respect to this
Indenture or the Notes unless:




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




(2) Holders of at least 30% in principal amount of the total outstanding Notes have
requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy;




(3) Holders of the Notes have offered the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity
against any loss, liability or expense;




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




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



A Holder of a Note may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder of a
Note or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder of a Note.



Section 6.07 Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment.



Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Note to
receive payment of principal, premium, if any, and Additional Interest, if any, and interest on the
Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note (including in connection with an
Asset Sale Offer or a Change of Control Offer), or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such
payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of
such Holder.



Section 6.08 Collection Suit by Trustee.



If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(1) or (2) hereof occurs and is continuing,
the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust
against the Issuer for the whole amount of principal of, premium, if any, and Additional
Interest, if any, and interest remaining unpaid on the Notes and interest on overdue principal and,
to the extent lawful, interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs
and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.


 


-83-









 





Section 6.09 Restoration of Rights and Remedies.



If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy
under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has
been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to
any determination in such proceedings, the Issuer, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored
severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and
remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding has been
instituted.



Section 6.10 Rights and Remedies Cumulative.



Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Notes in Section 2.07 hereof, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or
reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy,
and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to
every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or
otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not
prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.



Section 6.11 Delay or Omission Not Waiver.



No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Note to exercise any right or
remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a
waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by
this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as
often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.



Section 6.12 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.



The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be
necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and
counsel) and the Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer
(or any other obligor upon the Notes including the Guarantors), its creditors or its property and
shall be entitled and empowered to participate as a member in any official committee of creditors
appointed in such matter and to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable
or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby
authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee
shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any
amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof.
To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of
the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07
hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the
same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends,
money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding
whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise.
Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or
accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or
composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in
respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

including payment of all compensation, expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances
made, by the Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection;

(iii) to the Issuer or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct
including a Guarantor, if applicable.

In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit
against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as a Trustee, a court in its discretion
may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the
suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’
fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the
claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.14 does not apply to a suit by the
Trustee, a suit by a Holder of a Note pursuant to Section 6.07 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more
than 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes.

TRUSTEE




Section 7.01 Duties of Trustee.



(a) If an Event of Default 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
its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of
such person’s own affairs.



(b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:




(i) the duties of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of
this Indenture and the Trustee need perform only those duties that are specifically set

into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

(ii) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to
the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon
certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this
Indenture. However, 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 examine
the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements
of this Indenture.

negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that:

take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.05

(f) 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. Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be

have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or
matter stated in the document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or

grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to it against such
risk or liability is not assured to it.

Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any
event which is in fact such a Default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of
the Trustee, and such notice references the Notes and this Indenture. Delivery of reports to the
Trustee pursuant to Section 4.03 hereof shall not constitute actual knowledge of, or notice to, the
Trustee of the information contained therein.



(h) In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, or
consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit)
irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and
regardless of the form of action.



(i) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee,
including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be
enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent, custodian and
other Person employed to act hereunder.



(j) In the event the Issuer is required to pay Additional Interest, the Issuer will provide
written notice to the Trustee of the Issuer’s obligation to pay Additional Interest no later than
15 days prior to the next Interest Payment Date, which notice shall set forth the amount of the
Additional Interest to be paid by the Issuer. The Trustee shall not at any time be under any duty
or responsibility to any Holders to determine whether the Additional Interest is payable and the
amount thereof.



(k) The Trustee may request that the Company and any Guarantor deliver an Officer’s
Certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers (with specimen

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 otherwise deal with the Issuer or any Affiliate of the Issuer with the same rights it would
have if it were not Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting
interest it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to
continue as trustee or resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee
is also subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11 hereof.

Section 7.04 Trustee’s Disclaimer.



The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or
adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes, it shall not be accountable for the Issuer’s use of the
proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Issuer or upon the Issuer’s direction under any
provision of this Indenture, it shall not be responsible for the use or application of any money
received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee, and it shall not be responsible for any
statement or recital herein or any statement in the Notes or any other document in connection with
the sale of the Notes or pursuant to this Indenture other than its certificate of authentication.



Section 7.05 Notice of Defaults.



If a Default occurs and is continuing and if it is known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall
mail to Holders of Notes a notice of the Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the
case of a Default relating to the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on any Note,
the Trustee may withhold from the Holders notice of any continuing Default if and so long as a
committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in
the interests of the Holders of the Notes. The Trustee shall not be deemed to know of any Default
unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice
of any event which is such a Default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of
the Trustee.



Section 7.06 Reports by Trustee to Holders of the Notes.



Within 60 days after each May 15, beginning with the May 15 following the date of this
Indenture, and for so long as Notes remain outstanding, the Trustee shall mail to the Holders of
the Notes a brief report dated as of such reporting date that complies with Trust Indenture Act
Section 313(a) (but if no event described in Trust Indenture Act Section 313(a) has occurred within
the twelve months preceding the reporting date, no report need be transmitted). The Trustee also
shall comply with Trust Indenture Act Section 313(b)(2). The Trustee shall also transmit by mail
all reports as required by Trust Indenture Act Section 313(c).



A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to the Holders of Notes shall be mailed or
delivered by electronic transmission to the Issuer and filed with the SEC and each stock exchange
on which the Notes are listed in accordance with Trust Indenture Act Section 313(d). The Issuer
shall promptly notify the Trustee when the Notes are listed on any stock exchange.



Section 7.07 Compensation and Indemnity.



The Issuer shall pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation for its acceptance of
this Indenture and services hereunder as the parties shall agree in writing from time to time. The
Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express
trust. The Issuer shall reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable
disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its
services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of
the Trustee’s agents and counsel.



The Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the Trustee for, and
hold the Trustee harmless against, any and all loss, damage, claims, liability or expense
(including attorneys’ fees) incurred by it in connection with the acceptance or administration of
this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder (including the costs and expenses of
enforcing this Indenture against the Issuer or any of the Guarantors (including this Section 7.07) or defending itself against any
claim whether asserted by any Holder, the Issuer or any Guarantor, or liability in connective with
the acceptance, exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder). The Trustee
shall notify the Issuer promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the
Trustee to so notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer of its obligations hereunder. The
Issuer shall defend the claim and the Trustee may have separate counsel and the Issuer shall pay
the fees and expenses of such counsel. The Issuer need not reimburse any expense or indemnify
against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Trustee through the Trustee’s own willful
misconduct, negligence or bad faith.


 


-88-









 





The obligations of the Issuer under this Section 7.07 shall survive the satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture or the earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee.



Notwithstanding anything contrary in Section 4.12 hereof, to secure the payment obligations of
the Issuer and the 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 that held in trust to pay
principal and interest on particular Notes. Such Lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge
of this Indenture.



When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in
Section 6.01(a)(6) or (7) hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services
(including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of
administration under any Bankruptcy Law.



The Trustee shall comply with the provisions of Trust Indenture Act Section 313(b)(2) to the
extent applicable.



Section 7.08 Replacement of Trustee.



A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become
effective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section
7.08. The Trustee may resign in writing at any time and be discharged from the trust hereby
created by so notifying the Issuer. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then
outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Issuer in writing.
The Issuer may remove the Trustee if:



(a) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof;




(b) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is
entered with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law;



(c) a custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or



(d) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting.



If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any
reason, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. Within one year after the successor
Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes
may appoint a successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Issuer.



If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns
or is removed, the retiring Trustee (at the Issuer’s expense), the Issuer or the Holders of at
least 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.


 


-89-









 





If the Trustee, after written request by any Holder who has been a Holder for at least six
months, fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof, such Holder may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.



A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring
Trustee and to the Issuer. Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall
become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the
Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to
Holders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the
successor Trustee; provided all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have been paid and
subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.07 hereof. Notwithstanding replacement of the
Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Issuer’s obligations under Section 7.07 hereof shall
continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.



Section 7.09 Successor Trustee by Merger, Etc.



If the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of
its corporate trust business to, another corporation, the successor corporation without any further
act shall be the successor Trustee.



Section 7.10 Eligibility; Disqualification.



There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation organized and doing
business under the laws of the United States of America or of any state thereof that is authorized
under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination
by federal or state authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000
as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition.



This Indenture shall always have a Trustee who satisfies the requirements of Trust Indenture
Act Sections 310(a)(1), (2) and (5). The Trustee is subject to Trust Indenture Act Section 310(b).



Section 7.11 Preferential Collection of Claims Against Issuer.



The Trustee is subject to Trust Indenture Act Section 311(a), excluding any creditor
relationship listed in Trust Indenture Act Section 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been
removed shall be subject to Trust Indenture Act Section 311(a) to the extent indicated therein.



ARTICLE 8




LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE




Section 8.01 Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.



The Issuer may, at its option and at any time, elect to have either Section 8.02 or 8.03
hereof applied to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this
Article 8.


 


-90-









 





Section 8.02 Legal Defeasance and Discharge.



Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this
Section 8.02, the Issuer and the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions
set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with
respect to all outstanding Notes and Guarantees on the date the conditions set forth below are
satisfied (“Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer
shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding
Notes, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05
hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (a) and (b) below, and to have
satisfied all its other obligations under such Notes and this Indenture including that of the
Guarantors (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper
instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until
otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:




(a) the rights of Holders of Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of,
premium, if any, and interest on the Notes when such payments are due solely out of the
trust created pursuant to this Indenture referred to in Section 8.04 hereof;




(b) the Issuer’s obligations with respect to Notes concerning issuing temporary Notes,
registration of such Notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and the maintenance
of an office or agency for payment and money for security payments held in trust;




(c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee, and the Issuer’s
obligations in connection therewith; and



(d) this Section 8.02.



Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Issuer may exercise its option under this
Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.03 hereof.



Section 8.03 Covenant Defeasance.



Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section
8.03, the Issuer and the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth
in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from their obligations under the covenants contained in
Sections 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.14 and 4.15 hereof and
clauses (4) and (5) of Section 5.01(a), Sections 5.01(c) and 5.01(d) hereof with respect to the
outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof are
satisfied (“Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not
“outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders
(and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be
deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall
not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means
that, with respect to the outstanding Notes, the Issuer may omit to comply with and shall have no
liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether
directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by
reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document
and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section
6.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes shall
be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the
option applicable to this Section 8.03 hereof, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set
forth in Section 8.04 hereof, Sections 6.01(3), 6.01(4), 6.01(5), 6.01(6) (solely with respect to
Restricted Subsidiaries that are Significant Subsidiaries), 6.01(7) (solely with respect to
Restricted Subsidiaries that are Significant Subsidiaries) and 6.01(8) hereof shall not constitute
Events of Default.

Section 8.04 Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance.



The following shall be the conditions to the application of either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof
to the outstanding Notes:

the Holders of the Notes, cash in U.S. dollars, Government Securities, or a combination
thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized

U.S. federal income tax law,




in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm
that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, the Holders of the Notes will not
recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as applicable, as a
result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same
amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal
Defeasance had not occurred;




(3) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee
an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that, subject to
customary assumptions and exclusions, the Holders of the Notes will not recognize income,
gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance
and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and
at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;




(4) no Default (other than that resulting from borrowing funds to be applied to make
such deposit and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness and, in
each case, the granting of Liens in connection therewith) shall have occurred and be
continuing on the date of such deposit;




(5) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or
violation of, or constitute a default under the Senior Credit Facilities, the Existing
Senior Notes, the Existing Senior Secured Notes, the Existing Senior Subordinated Notes or
the indentures pursuant to which the Existing Senior Notes, the Existing Senior Secured
Notes and the Existing Senior Subordinated Notes were issued or any other material agreement
or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which, the Issuer or any Guarantor is a party
or by which the Issuer or any Guarantor is bound (other than that resulting, with respect to any Indebtedness being
defeased, from any borrowing of funds to be applied to make the deposit required to effect
such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance and any similar and simultaneous deposit
relating to such Indebtedness, and the granting of Liens in connection therewith);


 


-92-









 






(6) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect
that, as of the date of such opinion and subject to customary assumptions and exclusions
following the deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to the effect of Section 547 of
Title 11 of the United States Code;




(7) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating
that the deposit was not made by the Issuer with the intent of defeating, hindering,

Opinion of Counsel (which Opinion of Counsel may be subject to customary assumptions and
exclusions) each stating that all conditions precedent provided for or relating to the Legal
Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, have been complied with.




			
	Section 8.05	 	Deposited Money and Government Securities to Be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions.





Subject to Section 8.06 hereof, all money and Government Securities (including the proceeds
thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this
Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof in respect of the outstanding
Notes shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such
Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including
the Issuer or a Guarantor acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of
such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium and
Additional Interest, if any, and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds
except to the extent required by law.



The Issuer shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on
or assessed against the cash or Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof or
the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge
which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes.



Anything in this Article 8 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay
to the Issuer from time to time upon the request of the Issuer any money or Government Securities
held by it as provided in Section 8.04 hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm
of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the
Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(a) hereof), are in excess of the
amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance
or Covenant Defeasance.



Section 8.06 Repayment to Issuer.



Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Issuer, in trust
for the payment of the principal of, premium and Additional Interest, if any, or interest on any
Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, and premium and Additional
Interest, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuer on its request
or (if then held by the Issuer) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note
shall thereafter look only to the Issuer for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or
such Paying Agent with respect to such trust
money, and all liability of the Issuer as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease.


 


-93-









 





Section 8.07 Reinstatement.



If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any United States dollars or Government
Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be, by reason of any
order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise
prohibiting such application, then the Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes
shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03
hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in
accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be; provided that, if the
Issuer makes any payment of principal of, premium and Additional Interest, if any, or interest on
any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the
rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or
Paying Agent.



ARTICLE 9




AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER




Section 9.01 Without Consent of Holders of Notes.



Notwithstanding Section 9.02 hereof, the Issuer, any Guarantor (with respect to a Guarantee or
this Indenture) and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture and any Guarantee or Notes
without the consent of any Holder:



(1) to cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency;




(2) to provide for uncertificated Notes of such series in addition to or in place of
certificated Notes;



(3) to comply with Section 5.01 hereof;




(4) to provide for the assumption of the Issuer’s or any Guarantor’s obligations to the
Holders;




(5) to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the
Holders or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under this Indenture of any such
Holder;




(6) to add covenants for the benefit of the Holders or to surrender any right or power
conferred upon the Issuer or any Guarantor;




(7) to comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the
qualification of this Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act;




(8) to evidence and provide for the acceptance and appointment under this Indenture of
a successor Trustee thereunder pursuant to the requirements thereof;




(9) to provide for the issuance of exchange notes or private exchange notes, which are
identical to exchange notes except that they are not freely transferable;




(10) to add a Guarantor under this Indenture;


 


-94-









 






(11) to conform the text of this Indenture, Guarantees or the Notes to any provision of
the “Description of 2018 notes” section of the Offering Memorandum to the extent that such
provision in such “Description of 2018 notes” section was intended to be a verbatim
recitation of a provision of this Indenture, Guarantee or Notes; or




(12) to make any amendment to the provisions of this Indenture relating to the transfer
and legending of Notes as permitted by this Indenture, including, without limitation to
facilitate the issuance and administration of the Notes; provided, however,
that (i) compliance with this Indenture as so amended would not result in Notes being
transferred in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable securities law and (ii)
such amendment does not materially and adversely affect the rights of Holders to transfer
Notes.



Upon the request of the Issuer accompanied by a resolution of its board of directors
authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon receipt by the
Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02 hereof, the Trustee shall join with the Issuer
and the Guarantors in the execution of any amended or supplemental indenture authorized or
permitted by the terms of this Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and
stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into
such amended or supplemental indenture that affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this
Indenture or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Opinion of Counsel shall be required in
connection with the addition of a Guarantor under this Indenture upon execution and delivery by
such Guarantor and the Trustee of a supplemental indenture to this Indenture, the form of which is
attached as Exhibit D hereto, and delivery of an Officer’s Certificate.



Section 9.02 With Consent of Holders of Notes.



Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Issuer and the Trustee may amend or
supplement this Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees with the consent of the Holders of at least
a majority in principal amount of the Notes (including Additional Notes, if any) then outstanding
voting as a single class (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a
tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.04 and
6.07 hereof, any existing Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of Default in
the payment of the principal of, premium and Additional Interest, if any, or interest on the Notes,
except a payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with
any provision of this Indenture, the Guarantees or the Notes may be waived with the consent of the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including Additional
Notes, if any) voting as a single class (including consents obtained in connection with a tender
offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes). Section 2.08 hereof and Section 2.09
hereof shall determine which Notes are considered to be “outstanding” for the purposes of this
Section 9.02.



Upon the request of the Issuer accompanied by a resolution of its board of directors
authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with
the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders of Notes as
aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02 hereof, the
Trustee shall join with the Issuer in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture
unless such amended or supplemental indenture directly affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or
immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but
shall not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental indenture.



It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders of Notes under this Section 9.02 to
approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such
consent approves the substance thereof.


 


-95-









 





After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Issuer
shall mail to the Holders of Notes affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment,
supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Issuer to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall
not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental
indenture or waiver.



Without the consent of each affected Holder of Notes, an amendment or waiver under this
Section 9.02 may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder):




(1) reduce the principal amount of such Notes whose Holders must consent to an
amendment, supplement or waiver;




(2) reduce the principal of or change the fixed final maturity of any such Note or
alter or waive the provisions with respect to the redemption of such Notes (other than
provisions relating to Section 3.09, Section 4.10 and Section 4.14 hereof to the extent that
any such amendment or waiver does not have the effect of reducing the principal of or
changing the fixed final maturity of any such Note or altering or waiving the provisions
with respect to the redemption of such Notes);



(3) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest on any Note;




(4) waive a Default in the payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on
the Notes, except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of at least a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes and a waiver of the payment default that
resulted from such acceleration, or in respect of a covenant or provision contained in this
Indenture or any Guarantee which cannot be amended or modified without the consent of all
Holders;



(5) make any Note payable in money other than that stated therein;




(6) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past
Defaults or the rights of Holders to receive payments of principal of or premium, if any, or
interest on the Notes;



(7) make any change in these amendment and waiver provisions;




(8) impair the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of, or interest on
such Holder’s Notes on or after the due dates therefor or to institute suit for the
enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Notes;




(9) make any change to or modify the ranking of the Notes that would adversely affect
the Holders; or




(10) except as expressly permitted by this Indenture, modify the Guarantees of any
Significant Subsidiary in any manner adverse to the Holders of the Notes.



Section 9.03 Compliance with Trust Indenture Act.



Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes shall be set forth in an amended
or supplemental indenture that complies with the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect.


 


-96-









 





Section 9.04 Revocation and Effect of Consents.



Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a
Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or
portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of
the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a
Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation
before the date the waiver, supplement or amendment becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or
waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder;
provided that any amendment or waiver that requires the consent of each affected Holder of
a Note shall not become effective with respect to any non-consenting Holder pursuant to the last
paragraph in Section 9.02 hereof.



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

ARTICLE 10




GUARANTEES




Section 10.01 Guarantee.



Subject to this Article 10, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally,
unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and
to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of
this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Issuer hereunder or thereunder, that: (a) the
principal of, interest, premium and Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes shall be promptly
paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest
on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations
of the Issuer to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder 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, that 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 any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors shall be
jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a
guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.



The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder shall be unconditional,
irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the
absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with
respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer, any
action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or
equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives, to the extent
permitted by law, diligence, presentment, demand of 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 covenants that this Guarantee shall not
be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this
Indenture.



Each Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable
attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Trustee or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section
10.01.



If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer,
the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation
to either the Issuer or the Guarantors, any amount paid either to the Trustee or such Holder, this
Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.



Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to
the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all
obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on
the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the
obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 hereof for the purposes
of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such
acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any
declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6 hereof, such obligations
(whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the
Guarantors for the purpose of this Guarantee. The Guarantors shall have the right to seek
contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair
the rights of the Holders under the Guarantees.


 


-98-









 





Each 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, reorganization, should the Issuer
become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a 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 or Guarantees,
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.



In case any provision of any Guarantee shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the
validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected
or impaired thereby.



The Guarantee issued by any Guarantor shall be a general unsecured senior obligation of such
Guarantor and shall be pari passu in right of payment with all existing and future Senior
Indebtedness of such Guarantor, if any.



Each payment to be made by a Guarantor in respect of its Guarantee shall be made without
set-off, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any kind or nature.



Section 10.02 Limitation on Guarantor Liability.



Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the
intention of all such parties that the Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent
transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the
Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any
Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors
hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of each Guarantor shall be limited to the maximum
amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed
liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws and after giving effect to any
collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other
Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 10, result in
the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or
fraudulent transfer under applicable law. Each Guarantor that makes a payment under its Guarantee
shall be entitled upon payment in full of all guaranteed obligations under this Indenture to a
contribution from each other Guarantor in an amount equal to such other Guarantor’s pro rata
portion of such payment based on the respective net assets of all the Guarantors at the time of
such payment determined in accordance with GAAP.



Section 10.03 Execution and Delivery.



To evidence its Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 hereof, each Guarantor hereby agrees that
this Indenture shall be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by its President, one of its Vice
Presidents or one of its Assistant Vice Presidents.


 


-99-









 





Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 hereof shall remain
in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of any notation of such
Guarantee on the Notes.



If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture no longer holds that office at the time the
Trustee authenticates the Note, the Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless.



The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall
constitute due delivery of the Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors.



If required by Section 4.15 hereof, the Issuer shall cause any newly created or acquired
Restricted Subsidiary to comply with the provisions of Section 4.15 hereof and this Article 10, to
the extent applicable.



Section 10.04 Subrogation.



Each Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of Holders of Notes against the Issuer in
respect of any amounts paid by any Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.01 hereof;
provided that, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Guarantor shall be
entitled to enforce or receive any payments arising out of, or based upon, such right of
subrogation until all amounts then due and payable by the Issuer under this Indenture or the Notes
shall have been paid in full.



Section 10.05 Benefits Acknowledged.



Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the
financing arrangements contemplated by this Indenture and that the guarantee and waivers made by it
pursuant to its Guarantee are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.



Section 10.06 Release of Guarantees.



A Guarantee by a Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged,
and no further action by such Guarantor, the Issuer or the Trustee is required for the release of
such Guarantor’s Guarantee, upon:




(1) (A) any sale, exchange or transfer (by merger or otherwise) of the Capital Stock
of such Guarantor (including any sale, exchange or transfer), after which the applicable
Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary or all or substantially all the assets of
such Guarantor which sale, exchange or transfer is made in compliance with the applicable
provisions of this Indenture;




(B) the release or discharge of the guarantee by such Guarantor of the Senior Credit
Facilities or the guarantee which resulted in the creation of such Guarantee, except a
discharge or release by or as a result of payment under such guarantee;




(C) the proper designation of any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor as an
Unrestricted Subsidiary; or




(D) the Issuer exercising its Legal Defeasance option or Covenant Defeasance option in
accordance with Article 8 hereof or the Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture being
discharged in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; and




(2) such Guarantor delivering to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion
of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture
relating to such transaction have been complied with.

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE




Section 11.01 Satisfaction and Discharge.



This Indenture shall be discharged and shall cease to be of further effect as to all Notes,
when either:




(1) all Notes theretofore authenticated and delivered, except lost, stolen or destroyed
Notes which have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has theretofore
been deposited in trust, have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or




(2) (A) all Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have
become due and payable by reason of the making of a notice of redemption or otherwise, shall
become due and payable within one year or may be called for redemption within one year under
arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the

irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust
solely for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, cash in U.S. dollars, Government
Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient without
consideration of any reinvestment of interest to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness
on the Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal,
premium, if any, and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption;




(B) no Default (other than that resulting from borrowing funds to be applied to make
such deposit and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness and, in
each case, the granting of Liens in connection therewith) with respect to this Indenture or
the Notes shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or shall occur
as a result of such deposit and such deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or
constitute a default under the Senior Credit Facilities, Senior Subordinated Notes (or the
indenture under which the Senior Subordinated Notes are issued) or any other material
agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Issuer or any Guarantor is
a party or by which the Issuer or any Guarantor is bound (other than that resulting from any
borrowing of funds to be applied to make such deposit and any similar and simultaneous

Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied.

accordance with Section 11.01 hereof by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or
judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting
such application, the Issuer’s and any Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes
shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 11.01 hereof;
provided that if the Issuer has made any payment of principal of, premium and Additional
Interest, if any, or interest on any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the

Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture
referred to below unless otherwise indicated.



1. INTEREST. SunGard Data Systems Inc., a Delaware corporation, promises to pay interest on
the principal amount of this Note at 73/8% per annum from November 16, 2010 until maturity and shall
pay the Additional Interest, if any, payable pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement referred
to below. The Issuer will pay interest and Additional Interest, if any, semi-annually in arrears
on May 15 and November 15 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next
succeeding Business Day (each, an “Interest Payment Date”). Interest on the Notes will
accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid,
from the date of issuance; provided that the first Interest Payment Date shall be May 15,
2011. The Issuer will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any
Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at the
interest rate on the Notes; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any
proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest and Additional Interest,
if any, (without regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at the
interest rate on the Notes. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of
twelve 30-day months.

permitted by the Indenture. The Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or
portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being
redeemed in part. Also, the Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a
period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed.

Holders of at least 30% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare the
principal, premium, if any, interest and any other monetary obligations on all the then outstanding
Notes to be due and payable immediately. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of
Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all outstanding Notes will become
due and payable immediately without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the
Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain
limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may
direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of
the Notes notice of any continuing Default (except a Default relating to the payment of principal,
premium, if any, Additional Interest, if any, or interest) if it determines that withholding notice
is in their interest. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then
outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any
existing Default or and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default in payment
of the principal of, premium, if any, Additional Interest, if any, or interest on, any of the Notes
held by a non-consenting Holder. The Issuer and each Guarantor (to the extent that such Guarantor
is so required under the Trust Indenture Act) is required to deliver to the Trustee annually a
statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the Issuer is required within five (5)
Business Days after becoming aware of any Default, to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying
such Default and what action the Issuer proposes to take with respect thereto.



13. AUTHENTICATION. This Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be
valid or obligatory for any purpose until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee.



14. ADDITIONAL RIGHTS OF HOLDERS OF RESTRICTED GLOBAL NOTES AND RESTRICTED DEFINITIVE NOTES.

Global Notes and Restricted Definitive Notes shall have all the rights set forth in the
Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of November 16, 2010, among SunGard Data Systems Inc., the
Guarantors named therein and the other parties named on the signature pages thereof (the
“Registration Rights Agreement”), including the right to receive Additional Interest (as
defined in the Registration Rights Agreement).



15. GOVERNING LAW. THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THE
INDENTURE, THE NOTES AND THE GUARANTEES.



16. CUSIP NUMBERS. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform
Security Identification Procedures, the Issuer has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes
and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No
representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as
contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification
numbers placed thereon.

EXHIBIT D




[FORM OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE

TO BE DELIVERED BY SUBSEQUENT GUARANTORS]




Supplemental Indenture (this “Supplemental Indenture”), dated as of                     , among
                     (the “Guaranteeing Subsidiary”), a subsidiary of SunGard Data Systems
Inc., a Delaware Corporation (the “Issuer”), and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee
(the “Trustee”).



W I T N E S S E T H




WHEREAS, each of SunGard Data Systems Inc. and the Guarantors (as defined in the Indenture
referred to below) has heretofore executed and delivered to the Trustee an indenture (the
“Indenture”), dated as of November 16, 2010, providing for the issuance of an unlimited
aggregate principal amount of 73/8% Senior Notes due 2018 (the “Notes”);



WHEREAS, the Indenture provides that under certain circumstances the Guaranteeing Subsidiary
shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture pursuant to which the
Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall unconditionally guarantee all of the Issuer’s Obligations under the
Notes and the Indenture on the terms and conditions set forth herein and under the Indenture (the
“Guarantee”); and



WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Indenture, the Trustee is authorized to execute and
deliver this Supplemental Indenture.



NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties mutually covenant and agree
for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes as follows:



(1) Capitalized Terms. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have
the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.



(2) Agreement to Guarantee. The Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby agrees as follows:




(a) Along with all Guarantors named in the Indenture, to jointly and severally
unconditionally guarantee to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the
Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and
enforceability of the Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Issuer hereunder or
thereunder, that:




(i) the principal of and interest, premium and Additional Interest, if any, on
the Notes will be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by
acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and
interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Issuer to
the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder will be promptly paid in full or
performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and




(ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any
of such other obligations, that same will 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 any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the
Guarantors and the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same
immediately. This is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.


 


D-1









 






(b) The obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity,
regularity or enforceability of the Notes or the Indenture, the absence of any action to
enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any
provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer, any action to
enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or
equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor.




(c) The following is hereby waived, to the extent permitted by law: diligence,
presentment, demand of 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.




(d) This Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the
obligations contained in the Notes, the Indenture and this Supplemental Indenture, and the
Guaranteeing Subsidiary accepts all obligations of a Guarantor under the Indenture.




(e) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the
Issuer, the Guarantors (including the Guaranteeing Subsidiary), or any custodian, trustee,
liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Issuer or the
Guarantors, any amount paid either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Guarantee, to the
extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.




(f) The Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in
relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in
full of all obligations guaranteed hereby.




(g) As between the Guaranteeing Subsidiary, on the one hand, and the Holders and the
Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be
accelerated as provided in Article 6 of the Indenture for the purposes of this Guarantee,
notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in
respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of
acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6 of the Indenture, such obligations
(whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guaranteeing
Subsidiary for the purpose of this Guarantee.




(h) The Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall have the right to seek contribution from any
non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the
Holders under this Guarantee.




(i) Pursuant to Section 10.02 of the Indenture, after giving effect to all other
contingent and fixed liabilities that are relevant under any applicable Bankruptcy or
fraudulent conveyance laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to
receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect
of the obligations of such other Guarantor under Article 10 of the Indenture, this new
Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum amount permissible such that the obligations of
such Guaranteeing Subsidiary under this Guarantee will not constitute a fraudulent transfer
or conveyance.


 


D-2









 






(j) This 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, reorganization,
should the Issuer become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or
should a 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 and Guarantee, 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 Note 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.




(k) In case any provision of this Guarantee shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable,
the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way
be affected or impaired thereby.




(l) This Guarantee shall be a general unsecured senior obligation of such Guaranteeing
Subsidiary, ranking pari passu with any other future Senior Indebtedness of the Guaranteeing
Subsidiary, if any.




(m) Each payment to be made by the Guaranteeing Subsidiary in respect of this Guarantee
shall be made without set-off, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any kind or nature.



(3) Execution and Delivery. The Guaranteeing Subsidiary agrees that the Guarantee
shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of any
notation of such Guarantee on the Notes.



(4) Merger, Consolidation or Sale of All or Substantially All Assets.



(a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.01(c) of the Indenture, the Guaranteeing
Subsidiary may not consolidate or merge with or into or wind up into (whether or not the Issuer or
Guaranteeing Subsidiary is the surviving corporation), or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or
otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets, in one or more related
transactions, to any Person unless:




(i) (A) the Guaranteeing Subsidiary is the surviving corporation or the Person formed

or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition will
have been made is a corporation organized or existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of
organization of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary, as the case may be, or the laws of the United
States, any state thereof, the District of Columbia, or any territory thereof (the
Guaranteeing Subsidiary or such Person, as the case may be, being herein called the
“Successor Person”);




(B) the Successor Person, if other than the Guaranteeing Subsidiary, expressly assumes
all the obligations of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary under the Indenture and the Guaranteeing
Subsidiary’s related Guarantee pursuant to supplemental indentures or other documents or
instruments in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee;




(C) immediately after such transaction, no Default exists; and


 


D-3









 






(D) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an
Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger or transfer and such
supplemental indentures, if any, comply with the Indenture; or



(ii) the transaction is made in compliance with Section 4.10 of the Indenture;



(b) Subject to certain limitations described in the Indenture, the Successor Person will
succeed to, and be substituted for, the Guaranteeing Subsidiary under the Indenture and the
Guaranteeing Subsidiary’s Guarantee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Guaranteeing Subsidiary
may merge into or transfer all or part of its properties and assets to another Guarantor or the
Issuer.



(5) Releases.



The Guarantee of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall be automatically and unconditionally
released and discharged, and no further action by the Guaranteeing Subsidiary, the Issuer or the
Trustee is required for the release of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary’s Guarantee, upon:




(1) (A) any sale, exchange or transfer (by merger or otherwise) of the Capital Stock
of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary (including any sale, exchange or transfer), after which the
Guaranteeing Subsidiary is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary or all or substantially all the
assets of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary which sale, exchange or transfer is made in compliance
with the applicable provisions of the Indenture;




(B) the release or discharge of the guarantee by the Guaranteeing Subsidiary of the
Senior Credit Facilities or the guarantee which resulted in the creation of the Guarantee,
except a discharge or release by or as a result of payment under such guarantee;




(C) the proper designation of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary as an Unrestricted
Subsidiary; or




(D) the Issuer exercising its Legal Defeasance option or Covenant Defeasance option in
accordance with Article 8 of the Indenture or the Issuer’s obligations under the Indenture
being discharged in accordance with the terms of the Indenture; and




(2) the Guaranteeing Subsidiary delivering to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and
an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for in the
Indenture relating to such transaction have been complied with.



(6) No Recourse Against Others. No director, officer, employee, incorporator or
stockholder of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall have any liability for any obligations of the
Issuer or the Guarantors (including the Guaranteeing Subsidiary) under the Notes, any Guarantees,
the Indenture or this Supplemental Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason
of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting Notes waives and releases all
such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes.

ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
