Notes issued in definitive form will be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (but without the  Global Note Legend thereon and without the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached  thereto).  Each Global Note will represent such of the outstanding Notes as will be specified therein and each shall  provide that it represents the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes from time to time endorsed thereon  and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby may from time to time be reduced  or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges and redemptions.  Any endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the  amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby will  be made by the Trustee or the Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, in accordance with instructions given by the  Holder thereof as required by Section 2.06 hereof.

Simultaneously with such exchange of the  Regulation S Permanent Global Note, the Trustee will cancel the Regulation S Temporary Global Note.  The aggre- gate principal amount of the Regulation S Temporary Global Note and the Regulation S Permanent Global Note  may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee and the Deposi- tary or its nominee, as the case may be, in connection with transfers of interests as hereinafter provided.

The provisions of the “Operating Procedures  of the Euroclear System” and “Terms and Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear” and the “General Terms and  Conditions of Clearstream Banking” and “Customer Handbook” of Clearstream will be applicable to transfers of  beneficial interests in the Regulation S Temporary Global Note and the Regulation S Permanent Global Note that  are held by Participants through Euroclear or Clearstream.           (e)    Issuance of Additional Notes.  Additional Notes ranking pari passu  with the Initial Notes may be  issued from time to time by the Company without notice to or consent of the Holders and shall be consolidated with  and form a single class with the Initial Notes (other than the issue date, the issue price, the first Interest Payment  Date and the initial interest accrual date) and shall have the same terms as to status, redemption or otherwise as the  Initial Notes; provided  that the Company’s ability to issue Additional Notes shall be subject to the Company’s com- pliance with Sections 4.09 and 4.12 of this Indenture.   Section 2.02   Execution and Authentication .           At least one Officer must sign the Notes for the Company by manual or facsimile signature.           If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time a Note is authenticated, the  Note will nevertheless be valid.           A Note will not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of an authorized signatory of the Trus- tee.  The signature will be conclusive evidence that the Note has been duly authenticated and delivered under this  Indenture.           The Trustee will, upon receipt of a written order of the Company signed by an Officer of the Company (an  “Authentication Order ”),  authenticate (i) Notes for original issue, of which $600,000,000 in aggregate principal  amount will be issued on the Issue Date and (ii) any Additional Notes.  The aggregate principal amount of Notes  outstanding at any time may not exceed the aggregate principal amount of Notes authorized for issuance by the  Company pursuant to one or more Authentication Orders, except as provided in Section 2.07 hereof.           The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Company to authenticate Notes.  An au- thenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so.  Each reference in this Indenture to au- thentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent.  An authenticating agent has the same rights as an  Agent to deal with Holders or an Affiliate of the Company.                                                    -46-     





 






  Section 2.03   Registrar and Paying Agent .           The Company will maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer  or for exchange (“ Registrar ”)  and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (“ Paying Agent ”) .   The Registrar will keep a register of the Notes (“ Note Register ”) and of their transfer and exchange.  The Company  may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents.  The term “Registrar” includes any  co-registrar and the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent.  The Company may change any Pay- ing Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder.  The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name  and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture.  If the Company fails to appoint or maintain another entity as  Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such.  The Company, Parent or any of its Subsidiaries may act as  Paying Agent or Registrar, subject to applicable mandatory laws.           The Company initially appoints The Depository Trust Company (“ DTC ”) to act as Depositary with respect  to the Global Notes.           The Company initially appoints the Trustee to act as the Registrar and Paying Agent and to act as Custo- dian with respect to the Global Notes.   Section 2.04   Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust .           The Company will require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying  Agent will hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment   of principal of, premium on, if any, and interest on, the Notes, and will notify the Trustee of any default by the Com-  pany in making any such payment.  While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to   pay all money held by it to the Trustee.  The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money   held by it to the Trustee.  Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company or a Sub-  sidiary) will have no further liability for the money.  If the Company, Parent or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it   will segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent.    Upon any bankruptcy, liquidation, examinership, insolvency or reorganization proceedings relating to the Company,   the Trustee will serve as Paying Agent for the Notes.    Section 2.05   Holder Lists .           The Trustee will preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it   of the names and addresses of all Holders.  If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company will furnish to the Trus-  tee at least seven Business Days before each Interest Payment Date and at such other times as the Trustee may re-  quest in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and ad-  dresses of the Holders of Notes.    Section 2.06   Transfer and Exchange .           (a)     Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes.  A Global Note may not be transferred except as a whole   by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or to another   nominee of the Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of   such successor Depositary.  All Global Notes will be exchanged by the Company for Definitive Notes if:                   (1)    the Company delivers to the Trustee notice from the Depositary that it is unwilling or un-         able to continue to act as Depositary or that it is no longer a clearing agency registered under the Exchange          Act and, in either case, a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Company within 120 days after the          date of such notice from the Depositary;                   (2)    the Company in its sole discretion determines, subject to the procedures of the Deposi-         tary, that the Global Notes (in whole but not in part) should be exchanged for Definitive Notes and delivers          a written notice to such effect to the Trustee; provided that in no event shall the Regulation S Temporary                                                   -47-

A Global Note may not be ex- changed for another Note other than as provided in this Section 2.06(a), however, beneficial interests in a Global  Note may be transferred and exchanged as provided in Section 2.06(b), (c), (d) or (f) hereof.          (b)     Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in the Global Notes .  The transfer and exchange of  beneficial interests in the Global Notes will be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with the provisions of  this Indenture and the Applicable Procedures.  None of the Company, Trustee, Paying Agent, nor any Agent of the  Company shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payment made on ac- count of beneficial ownership interests in a Global Note, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records  relating to such beneficial ownership interests.  Beneficial interests in the Restricted Global Notes will be subject to  restrictions on transfer comparable to those set forth herein to the extent required by the Securities Act.  Transfers of  beneficial interests in the Global Notes also will require compliance with either subparagraph (1) or (2) below, as  applicable, as well as one or more of the other following subparagraphs, as applicable:                  (1)    Transfer of Beneficial Interests in the Same Global Note .

In addition to the Private Placement Legend and  the Tax Legend (if applicable), the Regulation S Temporary Global Note will bear a legend in substantially the fol- lowing form:          “THE RIGHTS ATTACHING TO THIS REGULATION S TEMPORARY GLOBAL NOTE,         AND THE CONDITIONS AND PROCEDURES GOVERNING ITS EXCHANGE FOR         DEFINITIVE NOTES, ARE AS SPECIFIED IN THE INDENTURE (AS DEFINED HEREIN).

At such time as all beneficial interests in a par-  ticular Global Note have been exchanged for Definitive Notes or a particular Global Note has been redeemed, repur-  chased or canceled in whole and not in part, each such Global Note will be returned to or retained and canceled by   the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.11 hereof.  At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest   in a Global Note is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a benefi-  cial interest in another Global Note or for Definitive Notes, the principal amount of Notes represented by such   Global Note will be reduced accordingly and an endorsement will be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by  the Custodian at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial interest is being ex- changed for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another  Global Note, such other Global Note will be increased accordingly and an endorsement will be made on such Global  Note by the Trustee or by the Custodian at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such increase.           (i)    General Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges .           (1)    To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company will execute and the Trustee will  authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section  2.02 hereof or at the Registrar’s request.           (2)    No service charge will be made to a Holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note or to a Holder  of a Definitive Note for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum  sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any  such transfer taxes or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.10,  3.06, 3.09, 4.10, 4.14 and 9.05 hereof).           (3)    [Reserved].           (4)    All Global Notes and Definitive Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of   Global Notes or Definitive Notes will be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and enti-  tled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global Notes or Definitive Notes surrendered upon such regis-  tration of transfer or exchange.           (5)     Neither the Registrar nor the Company will be required:                   (A)    to issue, to register the transfer of, or to exchange any Notes during a period beginning at          the opening of business 15 days before the day of any selection of Notes for redemption under Section 3.02          hereof and ending at the close of business on the day of selection;                   (B)    to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note selected for redemption in whole or in          part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part;                                                    -54-     





 






                 (C)     to register the transfer of or to exchange a Note between a record date and the next suc-         ceeding Interest Payment Date; or                  (D)     to register the transfer or exchange of Notes between the date of any conditional notice to          Holders of the anticipated occurrence of an early maturity date in the circumstances described below under          the “Springing Maturity” provision set forth in Section 2.14 and the occurrence or cancellation of such          early maturity date.           (6)     Prior to due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any Note, the Trustee, any Agent and  the Company may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such  Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and (subject to the record date provisions of the Notes)  interest on such Notes and for all other purposes, and none of the Trustee, any Agent or the Company shall be af- fected by notice to the contrary.           (7)    The Trustee will authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes in accordance with the provisions  of Section 2.02 hereof.           (8)    All certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to be submitted to the Registrar  pursuant to this Section 2.06 to effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by facsimile.           (9)    The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance  with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of  any interest in any Note (including any transfers between or among Depositary Participants or beneficial owners of  interests in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence  as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture, and to ex- amine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.           (10)   Neither the Trustee nor any Agent shall have any responsibility for any actions taken or not taken  by the Depositary.   Section 2.07   Replacement Notes .           If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Company and the Trustee receives evidence to its  satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the Company will issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an  Authentication Order, will authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are met.  If required by the  Trustee or the Company, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the  Trustee and the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any  loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced.  The Company may charge for its expenses in replacing a  Note.           In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost, or stolen Note has become due and payable, the Company in its  sole discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay such Note.           Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section 2.07,  the Company may require the payment of a  sum sufficient to cover any tax, assessment, fee or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation  thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.           Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.07 in exchange for any mutilated Note or in lieu of any  destroyed, lost, or stolen Note will constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether  or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost, or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and will be entitled  to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.           The provisions of this Section 2.07  are exclusive and will preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and  remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost, or stolen Notes.                                                   -55-     





 






  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 the Company 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 Company or an Affil-  iate of the Company 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 outstand-  ing and interest on it ceases to accrue.           If the Paying Agent (other than the Company, Parent, 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 will be deemed to be no longer outstanding and will 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 direc- tion, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Company or any Guarantor, or by any Person directly or indirectly con- trolling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company or any Guarantor, will be  considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee will be pro- tected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes with respect to which a Responsible Officer of  the Trustee has received written notice as being so owned at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee will be so dis-  regarded.    Section 2.10   Temporary Notes .           Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee,   upon receipt of an Authentication Order, will authenticate temporary Notes.  Temporary Notes will be substantially   in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary   Notes and as may be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.  Without unreasonable delay, the Company will prepare  and the Trustee will authenticate Definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes.  Holders of temporary Notes  will be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture.   Section 2.11   Cancellation .           The Company at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation.  The Registrar and Paying  Agent will forward to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, ex- change or payment.  The Trustee and no one else will cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, ex- change, payment, replacement or cancellation and will dispose of cancelled Notes in accordance with its customary  procedures (subject to the record retention requirements of the Exchange Act).  Certification of the disposition of all  canceled Notes will be delivered to the Company.  The Company 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 Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it will pay the defaulted interest in any law- ful 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; provided  that if the Company pays the defaulted interest prior to the date that is 30 days after the date of default in payment of  interest, payment shall be to the recordholders of the Notes as of the original record date.  The Company will notify                                                   -56-     





 






  the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the pro- posed payment.  If such default in interest continues for 30  days, the Company will fix or cause to be fixed each  such special record date and payment date; provided that no such special record date may be less than 10 days prior  to the related payment date for such defaulted interest.  At least 15 days before the special record date, the Company  (or, upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company) will mail   or cause to be mailed to Holders a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount   of such interest to be paid.    Section 2.13   CUSIP Numbers .           The Company in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use) and, if so, the  Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided , that any such   notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes   or as contained in any notice of redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers   printed on the Notes, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers.    The Company will as promptly as practicable notify the Trustee in writing of any change in “CUSIP” numbers.    Section 2.14   Springing Maturity .           (a)     Springing Maturity Date . The Notes will mature (x) if the Springing Maturity Condition does not   apply, on April 15, 2025, or (y) if the Springing Maturity Condition does apply, the Springing Maturity Date. Any   provisions relating to the determination of a minimum tenor, maturity or weighted average life with respect to any  permitted Indebtedness (including without limitation Refinancing Indebtedness) in this Indenture shall assume  (solely for purposes of such determination) that April 15, 2025 is the maturity date of the Notes.            (b)    Notice to Trustee of Springing Maturity Redemption . At least two Business Days (unless a shorter  notice shall be agreed to by the Trustee) before notice of any anticipated Springing Maturity Date is required to be  delivered or mailed to Holders pursuant to Section 2.14(c) hereof, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee the form  of such notice together with an Officer’s Certificate.           (c)    Notice of Springing Maturity Redemption . At least 10 days but not more than 60 days before any  anticipated Springing Maturity Date, the Company shall send electronically, mail or cause to be mailed by first-class  mail, postage prepaid, notice thereof to each Holder at such Holder’s registered address stated in the Note Register  or otherwise in accordance with the Applicable Procedures.  Such Springing Maturity Date shall be conditioned on  the Springing Maturity Condition.           The notice shall state:                     (1)  the anticipated Springing Maturity Date;                     (2)  the aggregate amount payable in respect of the Notes on the Springing Maturity Date;                     (3)  the name and address of the Paying Agent;                     (4)  that Notes must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect payment;                      (5)  that interest shall continue to accrue to but excluding the Springing Maturity Date; and                     (6)  that the Springing Maturity Date is conditioned on the Springing Maturity Condition.           At the Company’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of anticipated Springing Maturity Date in the  Company’s name and at its expense; provided , that the Company shall have delivered electronically to the Trustee,  at least two Business Days (unless a shorter notice shall be agreed to by the Trustee) before such notice is required  to be delivered electronically, mailed or caused to be mailed to Holders pursuant to this Section 2.14(c), an Officer’s                                                   -57-     





 






  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.           If the Notes are listed on an exchange, for so long as the Notes are so listed and the rules of such exchange  so require, the Company will notify the exchange of any anticipated Springing Maturity Date.           (d)    Effect of Notice of Springing Maturity Redemption .  A notice of anticipated Springing Maturity  Date pursuant to this Section 2.14, if delivered electronically, mailed or caused to be mailed in a manner herein pro- vided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice.  In any  case, failure to deliver such notice or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Note shall not affect the validity  of the proceedings for the payment of any other Note.  Subject to compliance with Section 2.14(e) hereof, on and  after the Springing Maturity Date, the Notes shall cease to be outstanding and interest thereon shall cease to accrue.           (e)    Deposit of Springing Maturity Funds .                     (1)  Prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Springing Maturity Date, the Company          shall deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the aggregate amount paya-         ble in respect of the Notes on the Springing Maturity Date and accrued and unpaid interest to but excluding          the Springing Maturity Date.  The Trustee or the Paying Agent will provide notice to the Company of any          money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Company in excess of the amounts necessary          to pay the principal owing on the Notes and accrued and unpaid interest to but excluding the Springing Ma-         turity Date.  Upon written request of the Company, the Trustee or the Paying Agent shall promptly return to          the Company any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Company in excess of the          amounts necessary to pay the principal owing on the Notes and accrued and unpaid interest to but exclud-         ing the Springing Maturity Date.

  Section 3.02   Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed or Purchased .           If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed or purchased in an offer to purchase at any time, and the   Notes subject to redemption are represented by Definitive Notes, the Trustee (subject to Section 4.10 or 4.14, as ap-  plicable) will select Notes for redemption or purchase pro rata, by lot or by such method as it shall deem fair and   appropriate.  If the Notes are represented by Global Notes, interests in such Global Notes will be selected for re-  demption or purchase by the Depositary in accordance with the Applicable Procedures.           In the event of partial redemption or purchase, the particular Notes to be redeemed or purchased will be   selected, unless otherwise provided herein, not less than 10 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption or pur-  chase date by the Trustee from the outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption or purchase.           With respect to Definitive Notes, the Trustee will promptly notify the Company in writing of the Notes se-  lected for redemption or purchase and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption or purchase, the prin-  cipal amount thereof to be redeemed or purchased.  Notes and portions of Notes selected will be in amounts of   $2,000 or whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof; except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed   or purchased, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder shall be redeemed or purchased; provided ,   that the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of a Note must be in a minimum denomination of $2,000.  Except as   provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption or pur-  chase also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase.    Section 3.03   Notice of Redemption .           Subject to the provisions of Section 3.09 hereof, at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before a re-  demption date, the Company will mail or cause to be mailed, by first class mail (or with respect to Global Notes, to   the extent permitted or required by the Depositary’s Applicable Procedures, send electronically), a notice of redemp-  tion to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be   mailed more than 90 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the   Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Articles 8 or 11 hereof.           The notice will identify the Notes to be redeemed and will state:                     (1)    the redemption date;                   (2)    the redemption price, or if not then ascertainable, the manner of calculation thereof;                   (3)    if any Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Note to          be redeemed and that, after the redemption date upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in prin-         cipal amount equal to the unredeemed portion will be issued upon cancellation of the original Note (or          transferred by book entry);                   (4)    the name and address of the Paying Agent;                   (5)    that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the          redemption price;                   (6)    that, unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment, interest on Notes          called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date;                   (7)    the paragraph of the Notes and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes          called for redemption are being redeemed;                   (8)    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                                                   -59-     





 






                 (9)     if the redemption or notice is conditional, the one or more conditions precedent and that          the Company may delay the redemption in its discretion until such time as the condition or conditions are          satisfied or waived or that such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event          that all such conditions have not been satisfied or waived by the redemption date, or by the redemption date          so delayed.           At the Company’s request, the Trustee will give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at the  Company’s expense; provided , however , that the Company has delivered to the Trustee, at least 30 days prior to the  redemption date (or such shorter period as is acceptable to 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 .           Except as provided in Section 3.07(f) hereof, once notice of redemption is mailed or transmitted in accord- ance with Section 3.03 hereof, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the redemption  date at the redemption price.  The notice, if mailed or transmitted 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 by such other means as may be required hereby or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Note des- ignated 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 will cease to accrue on the  Notes or portion thereof called for redemption.   Section 3.05   Deposit of Redemption or Purchase Price .           Prior to 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the redemption or purchase date, the Company will deposit with the  Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption or purchase price of, and accrued interest,  if any, on, all Notes to be redeemed or purchased on that date.  The Trustee or the Paying Agent will promptly return  to the Company any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Company in excess of the  amounts necessary to pay the redemption or purchase price of, and accrued interest, if any, on, all Notes to be re- deemed or purchased.           If the Company complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after the redemption or  purchase date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase.   If any Note called for redemption or purchase is not so paid upon surrender for redemption or purchase because of  the failure of the Company 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 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 Company will issue, and upon receipt  of an Authentication Order, the Trustee will authenticate for the Holder at the expense of the Company, a new Note  equal in principal amount to the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered (or transfer such Note  by book entry).   Section 3.07   Optional Redemption .           (a)    At any time prior to April 15, 2022, the Company may on any one or more occasions redeem up to  35% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes (calculated after giving effect to the issuance of any Additional  Notes) issued under this Indenture at a redemption price equal 109.000% of the principal amount of Notes re- deemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption (subject to the right of Holders of Notes  on a relevant record date to receive interest on an Interest Payment Date occurring on or prior to the redemption  date), with the net cash proceeds of an Equity Offering; provided that:                                                    -60-     





 






                 (1)     at least 50% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under this Indenture (in-         cluding any Additional Notes, but excluding Notes held by the Company, any direct or indirect parent of          the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries) remain outstanding immediately after the occurrence          of such redemption; and                    (2)    the redemption occurs within 180 days of the date of the closing of such Equity Offering.           (b)     At any time prior to April 15, 2022, the Company may on any one or more occasions redeem all or   a portion of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus the   Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest to, the date of redemption, subject to the right of Holders   of Notes on a relevant record date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date occurring on or prior to the   redemption date.  Promptly after the calculation of the redemption price under this clause (b), the Company shall   give the Trustee notice thereof.           (c)      The Company will have the right to redeem the Notes at 101% of the principal amount thereof  following the consummation of a Change of Control if at least 90% of the Notes outstanding prior to such consum- mation are purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer with respect to such Change of Control.           (d)    Except pursuant to clauses (a) – (c) above, the Notes will not be redeemable at the Company’s op- tion prior to April 15, 2022.

(f)    Any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections   3.01 through 3.06 hereof.  Any redemption of Notes (including with net cash proceeds of an Equity Offering) pursu-  ant to this Section 3.07 may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including,   but not limited to, consummation of any related Equity Offering, consummation of a Change of Control or consum- mation of a refinancing of any Indebtedness.  In addition, if such redemption or notice is subject to satisfaction of   one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall state that, in the Company’s discretion, the redemption date may   be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Company in its sole dis-  cretion), or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such condi-  tions shall not have been satisfied (or waived by the Company in its sole discretion) by the redemption date, or by   the redemption date so delayed.  Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the redemption price, interest will  cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable redemption date.  If any such                                                   -61-     





 






  condition precedent has not been satisfied, the Company shall provide written notice to the Trustee prior to the close  of business two Business Days prior to the redemption date.  Upon receipt, the Trustee shall provide such notice to  each Holder of the Notes in the same manner in which the notice of redemption was given.           (g)    If any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall occur on or after an interest record date and  on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest will 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 will be payable to  Holders of the Notes which are redeemed.

In the event that, pursuant to Section 4.10 hereof, the Company is required to commence an offer to all  Holders to purchase Notes (an “Asset Sale Offer ”),  it will follow the procedures specified below.           The Asset Sale Offer shall be made to all Holders and all holders of other Indebtedness of the Company or  any Guarantor that ranks pari passu with the Notes and contains provisions similar to those set forth in Section 4.10.   The Asset Sale Offer will remain open for a period of at least 20 Business Days following its commencement and  not more than 30 Business Days, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Offer  Period ”) .  Promptly after the termination of the Offer Period (the “Purchase Date ”),  the Company will apply all Ex- cess Proceeds (the “Offer Amount ”)  to the purchase of Notes and such other pari passu  Indebtedness in accordance  with Section 4.10(c).  Payment for any Notes so purchased will be made in the same manner as principal and interest  payments are made.           If the Purchase Date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related Interest Payment  Date, any accrued and unpaid interest will 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 will be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the  Asset Sale Offer.           Upon the commencement of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company will send, by first class mail (or with re- spect to Global Notes to the extent permitted or required by the Depositary’s Applicable Procedures, send electroni- cally), a notice to the Trustee and each of the Holders, with a copy to the Trustee.  The notice will contain all in-  structions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer.  The no-  tice, which will govern the terms of the Asset Sale Offer, will state:                   (1)    that the Asset Sale Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3.09 and Section 4.10          hereof and the length of time the Asset Sale Offer will remain open;                   (2)    the Offer Amount, the purchase price and the Purchase Date;                  (3)     that any Note not tendered or accepted for payment will continue to accrue interest;                   (4)    that, unless the Company defaults in making such payment, any Note accepted for pay-         ment pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer will cease to accrue interest after the Purchase Date;                  (5)     that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer may elect          to have Notes purchased in minimum denominations of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess          thereof; provided that any unpurchased portion of a Note must be in a minimum denomination of $2,000;                  (6)     that Holders electing to have Notes purchased pursuant to any Asset Sale Offer will be          required to surrender the Note, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the                                                   -62-

On or before the Purchase Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment (on a pro rata  basis to the extent necessary), the Offer Amount of Notes or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Asset Sale  Offer, or if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered, and will deliver or cause to be deliv- ered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate stating that such Notes or por- tions thereof were accepted for payment by the Company in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.09.  The  Company, the depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, will promptly mail or deliver to each tendering  Holder an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Company  for purchase, and the Company will promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon written request from the  Company, will authenticate and mail or deliver (or cause to be transferred by book entry) such new Note to such  Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered.  Any Note not so accepted  shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Company to the Holder thereof.  The Company will publicly announce  the results of the Asset Sale Offer on the Purchase Date.

The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee   of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency.  If at any time the Company fails to main-  tain any such required office or agency or fails to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations,   surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee.           The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes   may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations;   provided , however , that no such designation or rescission will in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation   to maintain an office  or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York for such purposes.  The Com-  pany will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the   location of any such other office or agency.

(b)     Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, Parent, the Company, or  the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, may apply an amount equal to such Net Proceeds:                  (1)    to the extent such Net Proceeds are from an Asset Sale of Fixed Asset Priority Collateral,         to repay either, (i) Obligations under the Term Loan Credit Agreement, (ii) Obligations under 2026 Secured                                                  -76-

Parent and the Company will be deemed to have complied with the provisions set forth in clause (4), (5)  and (6) of this Section 4.10(b) if within 365 days after the Asset Sale that generated the Net Proceeds, Parent, the                                                 -77-                                   





 






  Company or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary has entered into and not abandoned or rejected a binding agree- ment to acquire all or substantially all of such assets of, or any Capital Stock of, another Permitted Business or to  maintain, develop, construct, improve, upgrade or repair assets useful in the business of Parent, the Company or the  Restricted Subsidiaries and that acquisition or expenditure is thereafter completed within 180 days after the end of  such 365-day period.           Pending the final application of any such amount of Net Proceeds, Parent, the Company (or the applicable   Restricted Subsidiary) may temporarily reduce Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility, if any, or otherwise  invest or utilize such Net Proceeds in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture.           (c)    Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in Section 4.10(b)  hereof will constitute “Excess Proceeds ”;  provided that any amount of proceeds offered to Holders in accordance  with Section 4.10(b)(1) or (2) or pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer made at any time after the Asset Sale shall be  deemed to have been applied as required and shall not be deemed to be Excess Proceeds without regard to the extent  to which such offer is accepted by the Holders.  When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $50.0 mil- lion with respect to any one event and $150.0 million in the aggregate, the Company will make an Asset Sale Offer  to all Holders of the Notes and, if required by the terms of other First Lien Obligations (in the case of an Asset Sale  of Collateral) that contain provisions similar to those set forth in Section 4.10 on a pro rata basis the maximum prin- cipal amount (or accreted value, if applicable) of Notes, such other First Lien Obligations and such Senior Indebted-  ness (plus all accrued interest on the Indebtedness and the amount of all fees and expenses, including premiums, in-  curred in connection therewith) that may be purchased, prepaid or redeemed with an amount equal to the Excess   Proceeds.  The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and   unpaid interest, if any, to but not including the date of purchase, subject to the right of Holders of Notes on a rele-  vant record date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date occurring on or prior to the purchase date, and   will be payable in cash.  The Company may satisfy the foregoing obligations with respect to such Net Proceeds from   an Asset Sale by making an Asset Sale Offer with respect to such Net Proceeds at any time prior to the expiration of   the application period or by electing to make an Asset Sale Offer with respect to such Net Proceeds. If an amount   equal to the Excess Proceeds exceeds the amount paid in connection with the consummation of an Asset Sale Offer   (any such excess amount, “ Retained Declined Proceeds ”), the Company may use those Retained Declined Proceeds   for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture.  If the aggregate principal amount of Notes or the other   First Lien Obligations, as applicable, tendered (or required to be prepaid or redeemed in connection with) in such   Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Company will select the Notes and such other First   Lien Obligations, as applicable, to be purchased on a pro rata basis, based on the principal amounts tendered or re-  quired to be prepaid or redeemed and thereafter the Trustee will select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis   (subject to DTC’s applicable procedures with respect to the Global Notes) based on the principal amount tendered   (with, in each case, such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Company or the Trustee, as applicable,   so that only Notes in minimum denominations of $2,000, or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, will be   purchased; provided that any unpurchased portion of a Note must be in a minimum denomination of $2,000 or in   integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof).  Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess   Proceeds will be reset at zero.           (d)     Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 4.10, Excess Proceeds shall be calculated (x)   net of any additional taxes paid, or estimated by the Company in good faith to be payable, as a result of the repatria-  tion of such Excess Proceeds and (y) limited to the extent that the Company determines in good faith that an Asset   Sale Offer with respect to such Excess Proceeds would result in material adverse tax consequences or would be pro-  hibited or restricted by applicable requirement of law;  provided  that, (i) the Company shall use commercially rea-  sonable efforts to eliminate such tax effects in order to apply such Excess Proceeds as set forth in this covenant and   (ii) once the repatriation of any such Excess Proceeds is permitted under the applicable requirement of law and no   longer results in material adverse tax consequences, such funds shall be promptly applied in accordance with this   Section 4.10. The non-application of any prepayment amounts as a consequence of the foregoing provisions will not,   for the avoidance of doubt, constitute a Default or an Event of Default.           (e)     The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any   other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection   with each repurchase of Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer.  To the extent that the provisions of any securities                                                   -78-     





 






  laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of Section 3.09 hereof or this Section 4.10, the Company will com- ply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under  Section 3.09 hereof or this Section 4.10 by virtue of such compliance.   Section 4.11   Transactions with Affiliates .           (a)    Parent and the Company will not, and will not permit any of their 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 prop- erty or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, ad- vance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Company (each, an “Affiliate Transaction ”)  in- volving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $35.0 million, unless:                  (1)     the Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are not materially less favorable, taken as a          whole, to Parent, the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been ob-         tained in a comparable transaction at the time of such transaction or the execution of the agreement provid-         ing for such transaction by Parent, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person;          and                  (2)     with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involv-         ing aggregate consideration in excess of $75.0 million, the terms of such transaction have been approved by          a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company.   Any Affiliate Transaction shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements set forth in clause (2) of this Section  4.11(a) if such Affiliate Transaction is approved by a majority of the Disinterested Directors of the Company, if any.           (b)    The following items will not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not be  subject to the provisions of Section 4.11(a) hereof:                  (1)     any reasonable or customary employment agreement, consulting agreement, severance          agreement, employee benefit plan, compensation arrangement, officer or director indemnification agree-         ment or any similar arrangement entered into by, or policy of, Parent, the Company or any of their Re-         stricted Subsidiaries and payments pursuant thereto;                  (2)     (i) transactions between or among Parent, the Company and/or their Restricted Subsidiar-         ies (or entity that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such transaction) or between or among Re-         stricted Subsidiaries, (ii) any customary transaction with a Securitization Entity effected as part of a Quali-         fied Securitization Transaction, including in respect of Standard Securitization Undertakings, any disposi-         tion of Securitization Assets or related assets in connection with any Qualified Securitization Transaction          and any repurchase of Securitization Assets pursuant to a Securitization Repurchase Obligation and (iii) for          the avoidance of doubt, any customary transaction between or among Parent, the Company and/or its Re-         stricted Subsidiaries effected as part of a Qualified Receivables Facility, including in respect of Standard          Receivables Undertakings, and any repurchase of Receivables Assets pursuant to a Receivables Repurchase          Obligation;                  (3)     transactions with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary of Parent or the Com-         pany) that is an Affiliate of Parent or the Company solely because Parent or the Company owns, directly or          through a Restricted Subsidiary, an Equity Interest in, or controls, such Person;                  (4)     payment of compensation, fees and reimbursements of expenses to (pursuant to indem-         nity arrangements (including under customary insurance policies) or otherwise), and employee benefit and          pension expenses provided on behalf of, officers, directors, employees or consultants of Parent, the Com-         pany or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries;                  (5)     any issuance of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Company or any          direct or indirect parent of the Company to Affiliates of the Company;                                                   -79-

(a)    The Company and Parent will not, and will not permit any of their Restricted Subsidiaries that are  Guarantors, to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien of any kind (other than Permit- ted Liens) securing Indebtedness of Parent, the Company or their Restricted Subsidiaries that are Guarantors, if any,  on any property or assets now owned or hereafter acquired or any interest therein or any income or profits there- from, unless in each case:                  (1)     in the case of Liens on any Collateral, (i) such Lien expressly has Junior Lien Priority on          the Collateral relative to the Notes and the Guarantees or (ii) such Lien is a Permitted Lien; or                  (2)     in the case of any Lien on any asset or property that is not Collateral, (i) the Notes (or a          Guarantee in the case of Liens of a Guarantor) are equally and ratably secured, with (or on a senior basis to,          in the case such Lien secures any Subordinated Indebtedness) the obligations secured by such Lien until          such time as such obligations are no longer secured by a Lien or (ii) such Lien is a Permitted Lien.           (b)    With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at  the time of the incurrence of such Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount  of such Indebtedness.  The “ Increased Amount ” of any Indebtedness shall mean any increase in the amount of such  Indebtedness in connection with any accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original  issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, accretion of orig- inal issue discount or liquidation preference, any fees, underwriting discounts, accrued and unpaid interest, premi- ums and other costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith and increases in the amount of Indebtedness out- standing solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies or increases in the value of property se-  curing Indebtedness.

The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other se- curities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with  the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control.  To the extent that the provisions of any securities  laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.14, the Company will comply with the applicable  securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.14 by  virtue of such compliance.

(d)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, a Change of Control Offer may be  made in advance of a Change of Control, or conditioned upon the consummation of such Change of Control, if a  definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Change of Control Offer is made.   Section 4.15   Further Assurances .

In addition, from time to time, the Company will reasonably promptly secure  the obligations under this Indenture, the notes and the Security Documents by pledging or creating, or causing to be  pledged or created, perfected security interests in and liens on the Collateral.  Such security interests and liens will  be created under the Security Documents and other security agreements, mortgages and other instruments and docu- ments in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee.   Section 4.16   Future Guarantees .            (a)    If, after the Issue Date, (i) any Wholly-Owned Restricted Subsidiary (including any newly formed,  newly acquired or newly redesignated Restricted Subsidiary, but excluding any Excluded Subsidiary) that is not then  the Company or a Guarantor guarantees or incurs any other Indebtedness under either of the Senior Credit Agree- ments or guarantees or incurs any capital markets Indebtedness of Parent, the Company or any of its Restricted Sub-  sidiaries with an aggregate principal amount in excess of $400.0 million (“ Capital Markets Debt ”) or (ii) the Com-  pany otherwise elects to have any Restricted Subsidiary become a Guarantor, then, in each such case, the Company   shall cause such Restricted Subsidiary to execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture to this Inden-  ture (in substantially the form of Exhibit F hereto) pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary shall become a   Guarantor under this Indenture and shall provide a Note Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary on the same terms   and conditions as those set forth in this Indenture and applicable to the other Guarantors and execute and deliver to   the Trustee joinders to the Security Documents or new Security Documents together with any other filings and   agreements required by the Security Documents to create or perfect the security interests for the benefit of the hold-  ers of the Notes in the Collateral of such Restricted Subsidiary; provided  that, in the case of clause (a), such supple-  mental indenture, joinders to the Security Documents or new Security Documents together with any other such fil-  ings and agreements shall be executed and delivered to the Trustee within 20 Business Days following the date that  such Indebtedness under the applicable Senior Credit Agreement or such Capital Markets Debt has been guaranteed  or incurred by such Restricted Subsidiary.           (b)    Each Note Guarantee will be limited to an amount not to exceed the maximum amount that can be   guaranteed by that Restricted Subsidiary without rendering the Note Guarantee, as it relates to such Restricted Sub-  sidiary, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affect-  ing the rights of creditors generally.           (c)     Each Note Guarantee shall be released upon the terms and in accordance with the provisions of  Article 10.                                                    -83-     





 






  Section 4.17   Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries .           (a)     The Board of Directors of the Company may designate any Restricted Subsidiary of Parent (other  than the Company) to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default.  If such Restricted  Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Invest- ments in such Restricted Subsidiary by Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries will be deemed to be an Investment  made as of the time of the designation and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under Section  4.07 hereof or under one or more clauses of the definition of “Permitted Investments,” as determined by the Com- pany.  That designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if such Re- stricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.           (b)    Any designation of a Subsidiary of Parent as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be evidenced to the  Trustee by filing with the Trustee a certified copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company giving  effect to such designation and an Officer’s Certificate certifying that such designation complied with the preceding  conditions and was permitted by Section 4.07 hereof.  If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet  the preceding requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it will thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for  purposes of this Indenture and any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary will be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted  Subsidiary of Parent as of such date and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date pursu- ant to Section 4.09 hereof, the Company will be in default of Section 4.09 hereof.  The Board of Directors of the  Company may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary of Parent; provided  that such designation will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of Parent of any  outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary, and such designation will only be permitted if (1) such  Indebtedness is permitted by Section 4.09 hereof, calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had oc- curred at the beginning of the applicable reference period; and (2) no Default or Event of Default would be in exist- ence following such designation.  Any designation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary shall be  evidenced to the Trustee by delivery to the Trustee of an Officer’s Certificate certifying that such designation com- plied with the preceding conditions and was permitted by Section 4.09 hereof.   Section 4.18   Maintenance of Collateral .           Parent shall, and shall cause each of the Restricted Subsidiaries to, (i) at all times maintain, preserve and  protect all property material to the conduct of its business and keep such property in good repair, working order and  condition (other than wear and tear occurring in the ordinary course of business); (ii) from time to time make, or  cause to be made, all necessary and proper repairs, renewals, additions, improvements and replacements thereto nec- essary in order that the business carried on in connection therewith may be properly conducted at all times and  (iii) keep its insurable property insured at all times by financially sound and reputable insurers.   Section 4.19   Changes in Covenants When Notes Rated Investment Grade .           (a)    If on any date following the Issue Date:                  (1)     the Notes are rated Baa3 or better by Moody’s and BBB- or better by S&P (or, if either          such entity ceases to rate the Notes for reasons outside of the control of the Company, the equivalent in-         vestment grade credit rating from any other “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” regis-         tered under Section 15E of the Exchange Act selected by the Company as a replacement agency); and                  (2)     no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,   then, beginning on that day and continuing at all times thereafter and subject to the provisions of Section 4.19(c),  Sections 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11 and 5.01(4) hereof (collectively, the “ Suspended Covenants ”) will be sus- pended.           (b)    During any period that the Suspended Covenants have been suspended, the Company’s Board of  Directors may not designate any of its Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries pursuant to Section 4.17 hereof un- less the Company’s Board of Directors would have been able, under the terms of this Indenture, to designate such                                                   -84-     





 






  Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries if the Suspended Covenants were not suspended.  Notwithstanding that the  Suspended Covenants may be reinstated, the failure to comply with the Suspended Covenants during the Suspension  Period (including any action taken or omitted to be taken with respect thereto) will not give rise to a Default or  Event of Default under this Indenture.           (c)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the rating assigned to the Notes by either such rating agency  subsequently declines to below Baa3 or BBB-, respectively, the Suspended Covenants will be reinstituted as of and  from the date of such rating decline (any such date, a “ Reversion Date ”).  The period of time between the suspension  of covenants as set forth above and the Reversion Date is referred to as the “ Suspension Period .”  All Indebtedness  incurred (including Acquired Debt) and Disqualified Stock or preferred stock issued during the Suspension Period  will be deemed to have been incurred or issued in reliance on the exception provided by clause (2) of Sec- tion 4.09(b).  Calculations under the reinstated Section 4.07 will be made as if Section 4.07 had been in effect prior  to but not during the Suspension Period.  For purposes of determining compliance with Section 4.10 hereof, the Ex- cess Proceeds from all Asset Sales not applied in accordance with Section 4.10 hereof will be deemed to be reset to  zero after the Reversion Date.  In addition, for purposes of Section 4.11 hereof, all agreements and arrangements   entered into by the Company and any Restricted Subsidiary with an Affiliate of the Company during the Suspension  Period prior to such Reversion Date will be deemed to have been entered pursuant to Section 4.11(b)(11), and for  purposes of Section 4.08 hereof, all contracts entered into during the Suspension Period prior to such Reversion Date   that contain any of the restrictions contemplated by such covenant will be deemed to have been entered pursuant to   Section 4.08(b)(1) hereof.           (d)     Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Parent, the Company and their Restricted Subsid-  iaries may honor, comply with or otherwise perform any contractual commitments to take actions following a Re-  version Date without causing a Default or Event of Default; provided that such contractual commitments were en-  tered into during the Suspension Period and not in contemplation of a reversion of the Suspended Covenants.           (e)     The Company shall deliver promptly to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate notifying it of the be-  ginning of any Suspension Period or any Reversion Date.  The Trustee shall have no obligation to independently   determine or verify if such events have occurred or notify the Holders of any Suspension Period or Reversion Date.    The Trustee may provide a copy of such Officer’s Certificate to any Holders of Notes upon request.    Section 4.20   After Acquired Property .            From and after the Issue Date, and subject to the applicable limitations set forth in the Security Documents   and this Indenture (including with respect to Excluded Property), if the Company or any Guarantor creates any addi-  tional security interest upon any property or asset that would constitute Collateral to secure any First Lien Obliga-  tions or ABL Obligations, it shall concurrently grant (i) a first priority perfected security interest (subject to Permit-  ted Liens and the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements) upon  any such Fixed Asset Priority Collateral and (ii) a   second priority perfected security interest (subject to Permitted Liens and the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements)   upon any such ABL Priority Collateral, as security for the Notes Obligations.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the   Company or such Guarantor shall execute and deliver such Mortgages, title insurance policies, financing statements,   opinions of counsel and such other instruments as required under the Term Loan Credit Agreement as shall be rea-  sonably necessary to vest in the Collateral Agent a first-priority perfected security interest (subject to Permitted   Liens) in such Fixed Asset Priority Collateral that constitutes Mortgaged Property and compliance with such re-  quirements under the Term Loan Credit Agreement shall satisfy the requirements of this Section 4.20.     Section 4.21   Post-Closing Covenant            (a)    With respect to each Material Real Property that is located in the United States and is owned by the   Company or a Guarantor on the Issue Date or acquired by the Company or a Guarantor after the Issue Date, within   150 days of the Issue Date (or such later date as the Collateral Agent may agree in its sole discretion) or, with respect   to such real property acquired by the Company or a Guarantor after the Issue Date, within 90 days of the date of   acquisition, (or, prior to the discharge of the First Lien Obligations that are Term Loan Obligations, such later date as   the Term Loan Collateral Agent may have agreed to under the Term Loan Credit Agreement and after the discharge   of the First Lien Obligations that are Term Loan Obligations, such later date as the Collateral Agent may agree) (in   each case, prior to the discharge of the First Lien Obligations that are Term Loan Obligations, solely to the extent, and                                                  -85-

          of $75,000,000) purported to be covered by any of the Security Documents shall be invalid or not perfected          except as expressly permitted by the terms hereof or thereof (other than the failure of the Collateral Agent          to maintain control over possessory collateral actually received by it), any lien subordination provision in          respect of material Collateral shall be determined to be invalid or the Company  or any Note Guarantor ter-         minates or repudiates in writing or rescinds any Security Document executed by it or any of its obligations          thereunder.           A Default under clause (4) or (5) of this Section 6.01 will not constitute an Event of Default until the Trus- tee or the Holders of 30% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes notify the Company (with a copy to the  Trustee if given by the Holders of the Notes) of the Default.   Section 6.02   Acceleration .           In the case of an Event of Default specified in clause (6) or (7) of Section 6.01 hereof, with respect to Par- ent, the Company, any Restricted Subsidiary of Parent or the Company that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group  of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, all out- standing principal of the Notes and any accrued but unpaid interest thereon will become due and payable immedi- ately without further action or notice.  If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the  Holders of at least 30% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Company (with  a copy to the Trustee if given by Holders of Notes) may declare all outstanding principal of the Notes and any ac- crued but unpaid interest thereon to be due and payable immediately.           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 of all the Notes, rescind such an acceleration and its consequences  hereunder, if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree, except a continuing Default or Event of  Default in the payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest, if any, on, the Notes (except nonpayment of  principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on, the Notes that has become due solely because of the acceleration)  and if all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disburse- ments and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel have been paid.           In the event of a declaration of acceleration of the Notes because an Event of Default has occurred and is  continuing as a result of the acceleration of any Indebtedness described in Section 6.01(4) hereof (excluding any re- sulting payment default under this Indenture or the Notes), the declaration of acceleration of the Notes shall be auto- matically annulled if the holders of all Indebtedness described in Section 6.01(4) hereof have rescinded the declara- tion of acceleration in respect of such Indebtedness within 30 days of the date of such declaration of acceleration of  the Notes, and if the annulment of the acceleration of the Notes would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a  court of competent jurisdiction, and all existing Events of Default, except non-payment of principal or interest on the  Notes that became due solely because of the acceleration of the Notes, have been cured or waived and all amounts  owing to the Trustee have been paid.   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 of, premium on, if any, or 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 acqui- escence in the Event of Default.  All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.   Section 6.04   Waiver of Past Defaults .           The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to  the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its                                                   -94-     





 






  consequences hereunder, except a continuing Event of Default specified in clause (1) or (2) of Section 6.01 hereof;  provided , however , that the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may  rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from such accelera- tion.  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.           If a Default is deemed to occur solely as a consequence of the existence of another Default (the “Initial De-  fault ”),  then, at the time such Initial Default is cured, the Default that resulted solely because of that Initial Default   will also be cured without any further action.    Section 6.05   Control by Majority .           Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the time,   method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or the Collateral   Agent or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee or the Collateral Agent.  However, the Trustee or   the Collateral Agent, as applicable, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture, that   the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Hold-  ers of Notes (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not any   action or forbearance is unduly prejudicial to such Holders) or that may involve the Trustee or the Collateral Agent,   as applicable, in personal liability; provided however , that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by   the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction.    Section 6.06   Limitation on Suits .           Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, if any, when due,   no Holder of a Note may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture, the Notes or any Note Guarantee unless:                   (1)    such Holder has previously given the Trustee written notice that an Event of Default has          occurred and is continuing;                   (2)    Holders of at least 30% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes          make a written request to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, to pursue the remedy;                   (3)    such Holder or Holders offer and, if requested, provide to the Trustee or the Collateral          Agent, as applicable, security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as          applicable, against any loss, liability or expense;                   (4)    the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, does not comply with such request          within 60 days after receipt of the notice, request and the offer of security or indemnity; and                   (5)    during such 60-day period, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the          then outstanding Notes do not give the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, a direction incon-         sistent with such request.           A Holder of a Note may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder of a Note or to ob-  tain 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 of, premium on, if any, or interest on, the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed or pro-  vided for 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.                                                   -95-     





 






  Section 6.08   Collection Suit by Trustee .           If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(1) or (2) hereof occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is au-  thorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company or any Guaran-  tor for the whole amount of principal of, premium on, if any, and interest remaining unpaid on, the Notes and inter- est on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the  costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of  the Trustee, its agents and counsel.   Section 6.09   Restoration of Rights and Remedies .           If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Inden- ture and such proceeding has been determined 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 or any  other proceedings, the Company, any Guarantor, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respec- tively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies hereunder of the Trustee and the  Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.   Section 6.10   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, ex- penses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Notes allowed in  any judicial proceedings relative to the Company or any Guarantor (or any other obligor upon the Notes), its credi- tors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other prop- erty payable or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby author-  ized 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 com- pensation, 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, dis- bursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Sec- tion 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 examinership or  under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise.  Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to author- ize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, ar- rangement, 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.   Section 6.11   Priorities .           If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article 6, it shall pay out the money in the following or- der, subject to the Intercreditor Agreements:                  First:  to the the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, their respective agents and attorneys for amounts          due under Section 7.07 hereof, including payment of all compensation, expenses and liabilities incurred,          and all advances made, by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent and the costs and expenses of collection;                  Second:  to Holders of Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal, premium, if          any, and interest, if any, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due          and payable on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, respectively; and                  Third:  to the Company or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct.                                                    -96-     





 






                        The Trustee, upon written notice to the Company, may fix a record date and payment date for any payment  to Holders of Notes pursuant to this Section 6.11.   Section 6.12   Undertaking for Costs .          In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trus- tee for any action taken or omitted by it as a Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party liti- gant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable  costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to  the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant.  This Section 6.12 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 aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes.

(a)     If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee will 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 per- son would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. Other than with re- spect to an Event of Default in the payment when due of interest or an Event of Default in the payment when due of  principal of or premium, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of Events of Default unless a Responsi- ble Officer has actual knowledge or receives written notice of such Event of Default in accordance with Section  13.02 and such notice references the Notes and this Indenture. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,  the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights and powers under this Indenture at the request or  direction of any Holders of Notes, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to it  against any loss, liability or expense, and then only to the extent required by the terms of this Indenture.          (b)     Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:                  (1)    the duties of the Trustee will be determined solely by the express provisions of this In-        denture and the Trustee need perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture and         no others, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and                  (2)    in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of         the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished         to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture.  However, the Trustee will examine         the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture         (however the Trustee shall have no obligation to verify the mathematical calculations contained therein).          (c)     The Trustee may not be relieved from liabilities for its own negligent action, its own negligent  failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that:                  (1)    this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section 7.01;                  (2)    the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Respon-        sible Officer, unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and                  (3)    the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good         faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.05 hereof.          (d)     Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture that in any way  relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b), and (c) of this Section 7.01.                                                  -97-                                   





 






          (e)    No provision of this Indenture will require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or incur any   liability.  The Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under this Indenture at the   request or direction of any Holders, unless such Holder has offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity or security   satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense.           (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 Company.  Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds ex-  cept to the extent required by law.  The Trustee shall have no obligation to invest funds received by it pursuant to   this Indenture.           (g)     The Trustee shall not be liable for any error in judgment exercised in good faith and believed by it   to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture.    Section 7.02   Rights of Trustee .           (a)     The Trustee may conclusively rely upon any document (whether in its original or facsimile form)   believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person.  The Trustee need not inves-  tigate any fact or matter stated in the document.           (b)     Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officer’s Certificate or an Opin-  ion of Counsel or both.  The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reli-  ance on such Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel.  The Trustee may consult with counsel and the advice of   such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel will be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in re-  spect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon.           (c)    The Trustee may act through its attorneys and agents and shall not be responsible for the miscon- duct or negligence of any agent appointed with due care, and may in all cases pay reasonable compensation to all  such attorneys, agents, receivers and employees as may reasonably be employed.           (d)    The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith that it believes  to be authorized or within the rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture.           (e)    The Trustee may act on advice or opinion of counsel and shall not be responsible for any loss or  damage resulting from any action or non-action by it taken or omitted to be taken in good faith and in reliance on such  advice or opinion of counsel.           (f)    Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture, any demand, request, direction or notice  from the Company will be sufficient if signed by an Officer of the Company.           (g)    The Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this  Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee reasona- ble indemnity or security satisfactory to the Trustee against the losses, liabilities and expenses that might be incurred  by it in compliance with such request or direction.           (h)    The Trustee shall not be required to give any note, bond or surety in respect of the trusts and pow- ers under this Indenture.           (i)    The Trustee may request that the Company deliver an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the names  of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture,  which Officer’s Certificate may be signed by any person authorized to sign an Officer’s Certificate, including any  person specified as so authorized in such certificate previously delivered and not superseded.           (j)    Except with respect to receipt of payments of principal and interest on the Notes payable by the  Company pursuant to Section 4.01 hereof and any Default or Event of Default information contained in the Officer’s  Certificate delivered to it pursuant to Section 4.04 hereof, the Trustee shall have no duty to monitor the Company’s                                                   -98-

(k)    Delivery of reports, information and documents to the Trustee described in Section 4.03 hereof is  for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any in- formation contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s or the  Guarantors’ compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely conclusively  on Officer’s Certificates).  The Trustee is under no duty to examine such reports, information or documents to en-  sure compliance with the provision of this Indenture or to ascertain the correctness or otherwise of the information   or the statements contained therein.           (l)     In the event the Trustee receives inconsistent or conflicting requests and indemnity from two or   more groups of Holders of the Notes, each representing less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the   Notes outstanding, the Trustee, in its sole discretion, may determine what action, if any, shall be taken and the   Trustee may, in its sole discretion, take other actions.           (m)     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.           (n)     The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless a Re-  sponsible Officer of the Trustee has received written notice of any event which is in fact such a default at the Corpo-  rate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Notes and this Indenture.           (o)     The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, with-  out limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its ca-  pacities hereunder, including, without limitation, in its capacity as Collateral Agent, and each agent, custodian and   other Person employed to act hereunder, including the Collateral Agent.           (p)     Neither the Trustee nor the Registrar shall have any obligation or duty to monitor, determine or   inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or the Private Placement   Legend or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any transfers be-  tween or among Depositary participants, members or beneficial owners in any Global Note) other than to require  delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and  when expressly required by, the terms of this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compli-  ance as to form with the express requirements hereof.           (q)    The permissive rights of the Trustee shall not be construed as a duty.   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 oth- erwise deal with the Company or any Affiliate of the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not   Trustee.  However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest as defined in the TIA it must elimi-  nate such conflict within 90 days 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 Company’s use of the proceeds from the Notes or any   money paid to the Company or upon the Company’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 connec-  tion with the sale of the Notes or pursuant to this Indenture other than its certificate of authentication.                                                   -99-     





 






  Section 7.05   Notice of Defaults .           If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if it is known to the Trustee, the Trustee will  mail to Holders of Notes a notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after the Trustee obtains  knowledge thereof.  Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of, premium on, if  any, or interest on, any Note, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Responsible  Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of the Holders of the Notes.   Section 7.06   [Reserved] .   Section 7.07   Compensation and Indemnity .           (a)    The Company will pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation as is agreed to from  time to time in writing by the Company and the Trustee for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder.   The Trustee’s compensation will not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust.  The   Company will reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket disbursements, ad-  vances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services except for any such dis-  bursements, advance or expense as shall have been caused by the Trustee’s negligence or willful misconduct.  Such  expenses will include the reasonable out -of-pocket compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s   agents and counsel (as well as any notarial fees relating to the granting of any Spanish Public Document and regis-  tration fees, if any).           (b)    The Company and the Guarantors will indemnify on a joint and several basis the Trustee (includ- ing its officers, directors, employees and agents) against any and all losses, liabilities or expenses incurred by it aris- ing out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture, including the rea- sonable costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Company and the Guarantors (including this Sec- tion 7.07 and notarial fees relating to any Spanish Public Document, court clerk fees ( procurador ) (even if their in-  tervention is not mandatory),  court costs and any sworn translation costs and together with any applicable VAT)    and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Company, the Guarantors, any Holder or any other  Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except  to the extent any such loss, liability or expense may be attributable to its negligence or willful misconduct.  The  Trustee will notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity.  Failure by the Trustee to  so notify the Company will not relieve the Company or any of the Guarantors of their obligations hereunder.  The  Company or such Guarantor will defend the claim and the Trustee will cooperate in the defense.  The Trustee may  have one separate counsel and the Company will pay the reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses of such coun- sel.  Neither the Company nor any Guarantor need pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent  will not be unreasonably withheld.           (c)    The obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under this Section 7.07 will  survive the satis- faction and discharge of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee.           (d)    To secure the Company’s and the Guarantors’ payment obligations in this Section 7.07,  the Trus-  tee 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 of, premium on, if any, or interest on, particular Notes.  Such Lien will survive the satisfaction   and discharge of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee.           (e)    Without prejudice to any other rights available to the Trustee under applicable law, when the Trus- tee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in clauses (6) and (7) of Section 6.01  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.   Section 7.08   Replacement of Trustee .           (a)    A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee will become ef- fective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.08.                                                  -100-     





 






          (b)     The Trustee may resign at any time upon 30 days’ prior written notice to the Company and be dis-  charged from the trust hereby created by so notifying the Company.  The Holders of a majority in aggregate princi-  pal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee upon 30 days written notice to the Trustee and the   Company.  The Company may remove the Trustee if:                   (1)    the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof;                   (2)    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;                   (3)    a custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or                   (4)    the Trustee becomes incapable of acting.           (c)     If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason,   the Company will promptly appoint a successor Trustee.  Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office,   the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may appoint a successor Trus-  tee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Company.           (d)     If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is   removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company, or the Holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then   outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.           (e)     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 re-  moval of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.           (f)     A successor Trustee will deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and   to the Company.  Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee will become effective, and the suc-  cessor Trustee will have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture.  The successor Trustee   will mail a notice of its succession to Holders.  The retiring Trustee will 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 Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations under Section 7.07 hereof will 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 will be the successor Trustee.   Section 7.10   Eligibility; Disqualification .           There will at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation or national banking association orga- nized 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 $100.0 million as set forth in its most recent pub- lished annual report of condition.   Section 7.11   Security Documents; Intercreditor Agreements .           By their acceptance of the Notes, the Holders hereby authorize and direct the Trustee and the Collateral  Agent, as the case may be, to execute and deliver Intercreditor Agreements (including joinder agreements thereto) and  any other Security Documents in which the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, is named as a party, includ- ing any Security Documents executed after the Issue Date (expressly including appearing before Spanish notaries to                                                  -101-

It is hereby expressly acknowledged and agreed that, in doing so, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent are  not responsible for the terms or contents of such agreements, or for the validity or enforceability thereof, or the suffi- ciency thereof for any purpose. Whether or not so expressly stated therein, in entering into, or taking (or forbearing  from) any action under, the Intercreditor Agreements or any other Security Documents, the Trustee and the Collateral  Agent each shall have all of the rights, immunities, indemnities and other protections granted to it under this Indenture  (in addition to those that may be granted to it under the terms of such other agreement or agreements).           The Holders shall, if so requested by the Trustee in relation to any eventual enforcement of any Spanish Law  Security Document, (i) grant a power of attorney in favor of the Trustee entitling it to grant, perfect, register, novate,   enforce and/or cancel the relevant Spanish Law Security Document and (ii) notarize and apostille such power of attor-  ney before a notary public in their jurisdiction of incorporation (if the process of notarization and apostille exists within   that relevant jurisdiction, if not, to carry out the proper legalization process in order for such power of attorney to be   valid in Spain).    Section 7.12   Limitation on Duty of Trustee in Respect of Collateral; Indemnification .           (a)    Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof, the Trustee shall have no duty as to   any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income   thereon or as to preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto and the Trustee shall  not be responsible for filing any financing or continuation statements or recording any documents or instruments in  any public office at any time or times or otherwise perfecting or maintaining the perfection of any security interest in  the Collateral.  The Trustee shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Collateral in its  possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property and   shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral, by reason of the act   or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or bailee selected by the Trustee in good faith.           (b)     The Trustee shall not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collat-  eral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens in any of the Collateral, whether impaired  by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder, except to the extent such ac- tion or omission constitutes gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, for the va- lidity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of  the Company to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens  upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral.  The Trustee shall have no duty to ascertain  or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms of this Indenture or the Security Documents by  the Company, the Guarantors, the ABL Collateral Agent, the Term Loan Collateral Agent, the authorized repre- sentative under any Additional Intercreditor Agreement or any other Term Loan Secured Parties or Additional First  Lien Secured Parties.                                               ARTICLE 8                          LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE    Section 8.01   Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance .

  8.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes (includ- ing the Note Guarantees) on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance ”) .   For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company and the Guarantors, if any, will be deemed to have paid  and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes (including the Note Guarantees), which  will 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 clauses (1) and (2) below, and to have satisfied all their other obligations under such  Notes, the Note Guarantees and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company,  shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which will survive  until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:                  (1)     the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal          of, premium on, if any, and interest, if any, on, such Notes when such payments are due from the trust re-         ferred to in Section 8.04 hereof;                  (2)     the Company’s obligations with respect to such Notes under Sections 2.06, 2.07 and 4.02          hereof;                  (3)     the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the Com-         pany’s and the Guarantors’, if any, obligations in connection therewith (including, without limitation, those          contained in Article 7 hereof); and                  (4)     this Article 8.           Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 not- withstanding the prior exercise of their option under Section 8.03 hereof.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary  contained herein, the Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations under Section 7.07 shall survive a Legal Defea- sance.   Section 8.03   Covenant Defeasance .

For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means  that, with respect to the outstanding Notes and Note Guarantees, the Company and the Guarantors, if any, may omit  to comply with and will have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such cove- nant, 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 will 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 and Note Guarantees will be unaffected thereby.  In addition,   upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the   satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, Sections 6.01(3) (to the extent relating to the covenants   that are subject to Covenant Defeasance), (4), (5) and (8) hereof will not constitute Events of Default.  Notwith-  standing anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations under Section   7.07 shall survive a Covenant Defeasance.                                                   -103-

Notwithstanding anything in this Article 8 to the contrary, the Trustee will deliver or pay to the Company  from time to time upon the request of the Company any money or non-callable Government Securities held by it as  provided in Section 8.04 hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public account- ants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under  Section 8.04(1) 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 the Company .           Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the  payment of the principal of, premium on, if any, or interest, if any, on, any Note and remaining unclaimed for two  years after such principal, premium, if any, or interest, if any, has become due and payable shall be paid to the Com- pany on its request or (if then held by the Company) will be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note  will thereafter be permitted to look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such  Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, will thereupon  cease; provided , however , that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment,  may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in The New York Times and The Wall Street Jour- nal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which will  not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then  remaining will be repaid to the Company.   Section 8.07   Reinstatement .           If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any U.S. dollars or non-callable 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 Company’s and the  Guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture and the Notes and the Note Guarantees will 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; pro- vided , however , that, if the Company makes any payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest, if any, on,  any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company will 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.                                                   -105-

Notwithstanding Section 9.02 hereof, without the consent of any Holder of Notes, the Company, the Guar-  antors, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Notes, any Note Guaran-  tees or the Security Documents:                   (1)    to cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect, error or inconsistency contained in this          Indenture, or make such other provisions in regard to matters or questions arising under this Indenture as          the Board of Directors may deem necessary or desirable and that shall not materially and adversely affect          the interests of the holders of the Notes;                   (2)    to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes;                   (3)    to provide for the assumption of the Company’s or any Guarantor’s obligations to Hold-         ers of Notes and Note Guarantees in the case of a merger or consolidation or sale, assignment, transfer,          conveyance, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s or such Guarantor’s as-         sets, as applicable;                   (4)    to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of          the Notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights hereunder of any Holder;                   (5)    to conform the text of this Indenture, the Notes, the Note Guarantees or the Security Doc-         uments to any provision of the “Description of the Notes” section of the Company’s Offering Memoran-         dum;                   (6)    to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes, as determined in good faith by the Com-         pany, in accordance with the limitations set forth in this Indenture;                    (7)    to allow any Guarantor to execute a supplemental indenture and/or a Note Guarantee with          respect to the Notes in accordance with the terms of this Indenture;                   (8)    to evidence and provide for the acceptance and appointment under this Indenture of a          successor Trustee to provide for the accession by the Trustee to any Notes documentation;                    (9)    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 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 adversely affect the rights of Holders to transfer Notes in any material respect;                   (10)   to mortgage, pledge, hypothecate or grant any other Lien in favor of the Trustee for the ben-         efit of the Holders of the Notes, as additional security for the payment and performance of all or any portion          of the Obligations in respect of the Notes, in any property or assets, including any which are required to be          mortgaged, pledged or hypothecated, or in which a Lien is required to be granted to or for the benefit of the          Trustee or the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Indenture, any of the Security Documents or otherwise;                    (11)   to release Collateral from the Lien of this Indenture and the Security Documents or subordi-         nate such Lien when permitted or required by the Security Documents or this Indenture;                    (12)   to add replacement ABL Obligations, Additional First Lien Secured Parties or Permitted          Junior Lien Obligations to the Intercreditor Agreements; and                                                  -106-     





 






                 (13)    to secure any Additional First Lien Obligations or Permitted Junior Lien Obligations under          the Security Documents.           Upon the request of the Company accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the   execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture or amendment or supplement of the Notes, any Note  Guarantee or any Security Document, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 9.06,  12.04 and 12.05 hereof, the Trustee and/or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, will join with the Company and the  Guarantors, if any, in the execution of any amended or supplemental indenture or amendment or supplement of the  Notes, any Note Guarantee or any Security Document, 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 or the Col-  lateral Agent, as applicable, will not be obligated to enter into such amended or supplemental indenture or amend- ment or supplement of the Notes, any Note Guarantee or any Security Document, that affects its own rights, duties  or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.   Section 9.02   With Consent of Holder of Notes .           Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and/or the Collat- eral Agent, as applicable, may amend or supplement this Indenture (including, without limitation, Sections 3.09,  4.10 and 4.14 hereof), the Notes,  any Note Guarantee or the Security Documents with the consent of the Holders of  at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes other than the  Notes Beneficially  Owned by the Company or its Affiliates (including, without limitation, Additional Notes, if any) 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 on, if any, or interest, if any,  on, the Notes, except a payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with  any provision of this Indenture or the Notes, any Note Guarantee or any Security Document may be waived with the  consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes other than  the Notes Beneficially Owned by the Company or its Affiliates (including, without limitation, Additional Notes, if  any) voting as a single class (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or  tender offer or exchange offer for, the Notes).  Sections 2.08 and 2.09 hereof shall determine which Notes are con- sidered to be “outstanding” for purposes of this Section 9.02.           Upon the request of the Company accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the  execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence reasona- bly satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders of Notes as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of  the documents described in Section 9.06, 12.04 and 12.05 hereof, the Trustee and/or the Collateral Agent, as appli- cable, will join with the Company and the Guarantors in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture  or security document unless such amended or supplemental indenture or security document directly affects the Trus- tee’s and/or the Collateral Agent’s, as applicable, own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise,  in which case the Trustee and/or the Collateral Agent may in its discretion, but will not be obligated to, enter into  such amended or supplemental indenture or security document.           It is not necessary for the consent of the Holders of Notes under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular  form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it is sufficient if such consent approves the substance  thereof.  A consent to any amendment or waiver under this Indenture by any Holder of Notes given in connection  with a tender of such Holder’s Notes will not be rendered invalid by such tender.           After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Company will  send to the Holders of Notes affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver.   Any failure of the Company to send such notice, or any defect therein, will not, however, in any way impair or affect  the validity of any such amended or supplemental indenture or waiver.  Subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, the  Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding voting as a single class may  waive compliance in a particular instance by the Company or Guarantors with any provision of this Indenture, the  Notes or any Note Guarantees.  However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment, supplement  or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder):                                                  -107-     





 






                 (1)     reduce the principal amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, sup-         plement or waiver;                   (2)    reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note or alter or waive any of          the provisions relating to the dates on which the Notes may be redeemed (other than altering or waiving          any of the provisions relating to the dates for the redemption periods set forth in this Indenture to the extent          that such alteration or waiver does not adversely affect the Holders of the Notes) or the redemption price          thereof with respect to the redemption of the Notes (other than provisions relating to Change of Control and          Asset Sales);                   (3)    reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest, including default interest,          on any Note (other than provisions relating to Change of Control and Asset Sales);                  (4)     waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or          interest, if any, on, the Notes (other than a waiver of a payment default that resulted solely from an acceler-         ation not related to such payment default upon the rescission of such acceleration by Holders of at least a          majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes);                   (5)    make any Note payable in anything other than U.S. dollars;                   (6)    make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults          or the rights of Holders of Notes to receive payments of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest, if any,          on, the Notes;                   (7)    make any change in the preceding amendment and waiver provisions; or                   (8)    make any change to, or modify, the ranking of the Notes in respect of right of payment          that would adversely affect the Holders of the Notes.                   In addition, without the consent of the Holders of at least 66 2/3% in principal amount of Notes af-  fected thereby (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for,   or purchase of, the Notes), no amendment, supplement or waiver may modify any Security Document, the Intercreditor   Agreements or the provisions in this Indenture dealing with the Collateral or the Security Documents that would have   the impact of releasing any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its Note Guarantee or this Indenture (except as   permitted by the terms of this Indenture) or releasing all or substantially all of the Collateral from the Liens of the Secu-  rity Documents (except as permitted by the terms of this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor   Agreements) or change or alter the priority of the security interests in the Collateral.    Section 9.03   [Reserved] .   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 evi- dences 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 on which the Trustee receives an Officer’s Certificate  certifying that the Holders of the requisite principal amount of Notes have consented (and not theretofore revoked  such consent) to the amendment, supplement or waiver.  An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in  accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder.                                                   -108-     





 






  Section 9.05   Notation on or Exchange of Notes .           The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note  thereafter authenticated.  The Company in exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an  Authentication Order, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver.           Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note will not affect the validity and effect of such  amendment, supplement or waiver.   Section 9.06   Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc .           The Trustee and/or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, will sign any amended or supplemental indenture or   amendment or supplement of the Notes, any Note Guarantee or any Security Document, authorized pursuant to this   Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the   Trustee and/or the Collateral Agent, as applicable.  The Company may not sign an amended or supplemental inden-  ture until the Board of Directors of the Company approves it.  In executing any amended or supplemental indenture   or amendment or supplement of the Notes, any Note Guarantee or any Security Document, the Trustee and/or the   Collateral Agent, as applicable, will be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) will be fully protected   in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 12.04 hereof, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opin-  ion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture or amendment or supplement   of the Notes, any Note Guarantee or any Security Document, is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and to the   extent applicable, the Security Documents and that such supplemental indenture or amendment or supplement of the   Notes, any Note Guarantee or any Security Document, constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the   Company and the Guarantors, subject to customary exceptions.                                               ARTICLE 10                                          NOTE GUARANTEES    Section 10.01  Guarantee .           (a)     Subject to this Article 10, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, irrevocably, fully   and unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trus-  tee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the   obligations of the Company hereunder or thereunder, that:                   (1)    the principal of, premium on, if any, and interest 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, premium on, if any, and interest on, the Notes, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Com-         pany 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 (including, without limitation, interest, fees, and expenses          accruing after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy, or the commencement of any insolvency, liquidation,          examinership, reorganization or like case or proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law, relating to the Com-         pany or any Guarantor whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest, fees or expenses is          allowed in such case or proceeding and the obligations under Section 7.07); and                   (2)    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 will 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.           (b)     The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder are unconditional, irrespective of the   validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same,                                                  -109-     





 






  any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of  any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might other-  wise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a Guarantor.  Each Guarantor hereby waives (to the full-  est extent permitted by law) diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of   insolvency, liquidation, examinership, or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against   the Company or any other Guarantor, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that this Note Guar-  antee will not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this In-  denture.           (c)     If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, the   Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or  the Guarantors, any amount paid by either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Note Guarantee, to the extent thereto- fore discharged, will be reinstated in full force and effect.           (d)     Each Guarantor agrees that it will not be entitled to exercise 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, (1) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in   Article 6 hereof for the purposes of this Note Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition   preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (2) 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)   will forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Note Guarantee.  The Guarantors   will 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 Note Guarantee.    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 Note Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer, unfair, improper or   fraudulent disposition or preference  or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Con-  veyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar or other federal or state law to the extent applica-  ble to any Note Guarantee.  To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors   hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount that 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 pay-  ments 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 Note Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer,   unfair, improper or fraudulent disposition or preference or conveyance.    Section 10.03  Execution and Delivery of Note Guarantee .           To evidence its Note Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 hereof, each Guarantor hereby agrees that a nota-  tion of such Note Guarantee substantially in the form attached as Exhibit E hereto will be endorsed by the manual or   facsimile signature of an Officer of such Guarantor on each Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and that   this Indenture will be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by one of its Officers.           Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Note Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 hereof will remain in full   force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Note Guarantee.           If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture or on the Note Guarantee no longer holds that office at  the time the Trustee authenticates the Note on which a Note Guarantee is endorsed, the Note Guarantee will be valid  nevertheless.           The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, will constitute due de- livery of the Note Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors.                                                  -110-     





 






                        In the event that the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries creates or acquires any Wholly Owned  Restricted Subsidiary after the Issue Date, if required by Section 4.16 hereof, the Company will cause such Wholly  Owned Restricted Subsidiary to comply with the provisions of Section 4.16 hereof and this Article 10, to the extent  applicable.          Neither the Company nor any Guarantor shall be required to make a notation on the Notes to reflect a Note  Guarantee or any release, termination or discharge thereof.   Section 10.04  Guarantors May Consolidate, etc ., on Certain Terms .          Except as otherwise provided in Section 10.05 hereof, no Guarantor may sell or otherwise dispose of all or  substantially all of its assets to, or consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the sur- viving Person) another Person, other than the Company or another Guarantor, unless either:                         (1)    subject to Section 10.05 hereof, the Person acquiring the property in any such                 sale or disposition or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger uncon-                ditionally assumes all the obligations of that Guarantor under its Note Guarantee and this Inden-                ture, on the terms set forth therein or herein, pursuant to a supplemental indenture; or                         (2)    such sale, other disposition, consolidation or merger is permitted and the Net                 Proceeds of such sale or other disposition if any and if required are applied in accordance with, in                 each case, the applicable provisions of this Indenture, including without limitation, Section 4.10                 hereof.          In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance and upon the assumption by the successor  Person, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of  the Note Guarantee endorsed upon the Notes and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and con- ditions of this Indenture to be performed by the Guarantor, such successor Person will succeed to and be substituted  for the Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named herein as a Guarantor.  Such successor Person there- upon may cause to be signed any or all of the Note Guarantees to be endorsed upon all of the Notes issuable hereun- der which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee.  All the Note Guar- antees so issued will in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Note Guarantees  theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Note Guaran- tees had been issued at the date of the execution hereof.

Section 10.11  Spanish Law Particulars .            (a)     Each Spanish Guarantor acknowledges that Notes Obligations under this Indenture shall consti-  tute, when due and payable under the relevant agreements from which they arise, liquid, due and payable obligations   of such Spanish Guarantor ( deuda líquida y exigible ).           (b)    Each Spanish Guarantor acknowledges that the Note Guarantee provided by it under this Article  10 must be construed as a first demand guarantee ( garantía a primera demanda ) and not as a guarantee ( fianza ) of  those detailed in Section 1,822 et seq . of the Spanish Civil Code, and, therefore, the benefits of preference ( ex-  cusión ), order ( orden ) and division ( división ) shall not be applicable.           (c)    For the purposes of article 135 and the Additional Section Fourth ( Disposición Adicional Cuarta )  of the Spanish Insolvency Law, the obligations of each Spanish Guarantor under this Indenture vis-a-vis  each Notes  Secured Party shall be governed by the terms of this Indenture at any time such that each Spanish Guarantor’s obli- gations pursuant to this Article 10 shall not be affected by (i) the fact that a Notes Secured Party may vote in favour  of the approval or ratification of a creditors' agreement ( convenio ) as a result of the insolvency ( concurso ) of a Span-  ish Guarantor or if the insolvency proceeding has been filed in Spain, provided that in the event of an approval of a   creditors’ agreement ( convenio ) or an homologated refinancing agreement ( acuerdo de refinanciación homologado )   in respect of a Spanish Guarantor, the scope of any liability and guaranteed obligations of the Spanish Guarantor   will be governed by said convenio  or acuerdo de refinanciación homologado  or (ii) the approval or execution of a  court-sanctioned out-of-court workout (an homologated refinancing agreement ( acuerdo de refinanciación homolo- gado )) and which may be entered into in connection with a Spanish Guarantor (in any case, prior to the declaration  of insolvency, whether voluntary or mandatory), under paragraph 9 of the Additional Section Fourth ( Disposición  Adicional Cuarta ) of the Spanish Insolvency Law. Each and any of the Notes Obligations of a Spanish Guarantor  under the Security Documents shall remain exactly within the terms stated herein irrespective of whether or not a  Notes Secured Party votes in favour of the approval or ratification of a creditors' agreement ( convenio ) or an homol- ogated refinancing agreement ( acuerdo de refinanciación homologado ) of a Spanish Guarantor or a court-sanctioned  out-of-court workout (an homologated refinancing agreement ( acuerdo de refinanciación homologado )), or if the  insolvency proceeding has been filed in Spain, unless a convenio  or an acuerdo de refinanciación homologado  is  approved in respect to a Spanish Guarantor, in which case the guaranteed obligations of that Spanish Guarantor will  be subject to the terms of the convenio  or acuerdo de refinanciación homologado . The Notes Obligations of all other  Guarantors will remain unaltered in any of the aforementioned events.           (d)    For the avoidance of doubt, the Notes Obligations of any Spanish Guarantor shall not extend to  any obligations that would constitute unlawful financial assistance within the meaning of Section 143.2 or Section  150 of the Spanish Companies Law.   Section 10.12  Jersey law particulars           Without prejudice to the generality of any waiver granted in this Indenture or any Security Document, each  Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally abandons and waives any right which it may have at any time under the  present or future laws of Jersey:           (a)    whether by virtue of the droit de discussion  or otherwise to require that recourse be had to the as- sets of any other Guarantor or any other person before any claim is enforced against it in respect of the obligations  or liabilities assumed by it under this Indenture or any Security Document; and           (b)    whether by virtue of the droit de division  or otherwise to require that any obligation or liability  under this Indenture or any Security Document be divided or apportioned with any other Guarantor or any other per- son or reduced in any manner whatsoever.                                                  -114-     





 






  Section 10.13  Irish Guarantee Limitation           The obligations of each Guarantor incorporated under the laws of Ireland shall be limited to the extent re- quired so that such obligations do not and cannot result in the provision of financial assistance within the meaning of  Section 82 of the Irish Companies Act.

In addition, the Company must deliver an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that   all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied.           Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money has been deposited with the  Trustee pursuant to subclause (b) of clause (1) of this Section 11.01, the provisions of Sections 11.02 and 8.06  hereof will survive.

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with   Section 11.01 hereof by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or gov-  ernmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company’s and any Guar-  antor’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had oc-  curred pursuant to Section 11.01 hereof; provided that if the Company has made any payment of principal of, pre-  mium on, if any, or interest on, any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be sub-  rogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or Government Securi-  ties held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.           The Company will pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or as-  sessed against the cash or non-callable Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 11.01 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.

Subject to the provisions of the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements, the Trustee and the Collateral   Agent shall have power to institute and to maintain such suits and proceedings as the Trustee may determine to pre-  vent any impairment of the Collateral by any acts which may be unlawful or in violation of any of the Security Doc-  uments or this Indenture, and such suits and proceedings as the Trustee may determine to preserve or protect its in-  terests and the interests of the Holders in the Collateral.  Nothing in this Section 12.03 shall be considered to impose   any such duty or obligation to act on the part of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent.    Section 12.04  Authorization of Receipt of Funds by the Trustee Under the Security Documents .           Subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreements, the Trustee is authorized to receive any funds for   the benefit of the Holders distributed under the Security Documents, and to make further distributions of such funds   to the Holders according to the provisions of this Indenture.    Section 12.05  Purchaser Protected .           In no event shall any purchaser in good faith of any property purported to be released hereunder be bound   to ascertain the authority of the Collateral Agent or the Trustee to execute the release or to inquire as to the satisfac-  tion of any conditions required by the provisions hereof for the exercise of such authority or to see to the application   of any consideration given by such purchaser or other transferee; nor shall any purchaser or other transferee of any   property or rights permitted by this Article 12 to be sold be under any obligation to ascertain or inquire into the au-  thority of the Company or the applicable Guarantor to make any such sale or other transfer.    Section 12.06  Powers Exercisable by Receiver or Trustee .           In case the Collateral shall be in the possession of a receiver or trustee, lawfully appointed, the powers con-  ferred in this Article 12 upon the Company or a Guarantor with respect to the release, sale or other disposition of   such property may be exercised by such receiver or trustee, and an instrument signed by such receiver or trustee   shall be deemed the equivalent of any similar instrument of the Company or a Guarantor or of any Officer or Offic- ers thereof required by the provisions of this Article 12; and if the Trustee shall be in the possession of the Collateral  under any provision of this Indenture, then such powers may be exercised by the Trustee.   Section 12.07  Release Upon Termination of the Company’s Obligations .           In the event that the Company delivers to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate certifying that (i) payment in  full of the principal of, together with accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes and all other Obligations under this  Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees and the Security Documents that were due and payable at or prior to the time  such principal, together with accrued and unpaid interest, were paid, (ii) the Company shall have exercised its Legal  Defeasance option or its Covenant Defeasance option, in each case in compliance with the provisions of Article 8, or  (iii) the Company has discharged this Indenture and the Security Documents described under Article 11, and in each  case, an Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent to such Legal Defeasance, Covenant Defeasance or  discharge, as applicable, have been satisfied, the Trustee and/or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall deliver to  the Company a release of Lien in the Collateral without recourse, representations or warranties and shall do or cause  to be done (at the expense of the Company) all acts reasonably requested of them to promptly release such Lien.   Section 12.08  Collateral Agent .           (a)    The Company and each of the Holders by acceptance of the Notes hereby designates and appoints  the Collateral Agent as its agent and, for purposes of Mexican law, at its comisionista, under this Indenture, the Se- curity Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements and the Company and each of the Holders by acceptance of the  Notes hereby irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of  this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements and to exercise such powers and perform                                                  -118-     





 






  such duties as are expressly delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms of this Indenture, the Security Documents  and the Intercreditor Agreements, and consents and agrees to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements and each  Security Document, as the same may be in effect or may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified  from time to time in accordance with their respective terms.  The Collateral Agent agrees to act as such on the ex- press conditions contained in this Section 12.08.  Each Holder agrees that any action taken by the Collateral Agent  in accordance with the provision of this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements and the Security Documents, and  the exercise by the Collateral Agent of any rights or remedies set forth herein and therein shall be authorized and  binding upon all Holders.  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Indenture, the  Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements, the duties of the Collateral Agent shall be ministerial and  administrative in nature, and the Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those ex- pressly set forth herein and in the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements to which the Collateral  Agent is a party, nor shall the Collateral Agent have or be deemed to have any trust or other fiduciary relationship  with the Trustee, any Holder or any Grantor, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obliga- tions or liabilities shall be read into this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements or oth- erwise exist against the Collateral Agent.  The Collateral Agent shall have all of the rights (including indemnifica- tion rights), benefits, privileges and immunities granted to the Trustee under this Indenture, all of which are incorpo- rated in the Security Documents mutatis mutandis .  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the   use of the term “agent” in this Indenture with reference to the Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduci-  ary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law.  Instead, such term   is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship  between independent contracting parties.           (b)    The Collateral Agent may perform any of its duties under this Indenture, the Security Documents  or the Intercreditor Agreements by or through receivers, agents, employees, attorneys, attorneys-in-fact or with re- spect to any specified Person, such Person’s Affiliates, and the respective officers, directors, employees, agents, ad- visors, attorneys and attorneys-in-fact of such Person and its Affiliates (a “Related Person”), and shall be entitled to  advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties, and shall be entitled to act upon, and shall be  fully protected in taking action in reliance upon any advice or opinion given by legal counsel.  The Collateral Agent  shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any receiver, agent, employee, attorney-in-fact or Re- lated Person that it selects as long as such selection was made in good faith and with due care.           (c)     None of the Collateral Agent or any of its respective Related Persons shall (i) be liable for any ac-  tion taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Indenture or the transactions con-  templated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or under or in connection with any Se-  curity Document or the Intercreditor Agreements or the transactions contemplated thereby (except for its own gross  negligence or willful misconduct), or (ii) be responsible in any manner to any of the Trustee or any Holder for any  recital, statement, representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the Company or any other Grantor or  Affiliate of any Grantor, or any Officer or Related Person thereof, contained in this Indenture, the Security Docu- ments or the Intercreditor Agreements, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or pro-  vided for in, or received by the Collateral Agent under or in connection with, this Indenture, the Security Documents  or the Intercreditor Agreements, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this In- denture, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements, or for any failure of any Grantor or any other  party to this Indenture, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements to perform its obligations hereunder  or thereunder.  None of the Collateral Agent or any of its respective Related Persons shall be under any obligation to  the Trustee or any Holder to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements  contained in, or conditions of, this Indenture, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements or to inspect  the properties, books, or records of any Grantor or any Grantor’s Affiliates.           (d)    The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any  writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, certification, telephone message,  statement, or other communication, document or conversation (including those by telephone or e-mail) believed by  it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent, or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice  and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Company or any other Grantor), inde- pendent accountants and other experts and advisors selected by the Collateral Agent.  The Collateral Agent shall not  be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instru- ment, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, or other paper or document.

  Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Indenture, the Security   Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements unless it shall first receive such request, direction, instruction or consent  of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes as it determines and, if it so requests, it shall   first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Holders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred   by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.  The Collateral Agent shall in all cases be fully pro-  tected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Indenture, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor   Agreements in accordance with a request, direction, instruction or consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate  principal amount of the then outstanding Notes and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant  thereto shall be binding upon all of the Holders.           (e)    The Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any  Default or Event of Default, unless a Responsible Officer of the Collateral Agent shall have received written notice  from the Trustee or the Company referring to this Indenture, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating  that such notice is a “notice of default.”  The Collateral Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or  Event of Default as may be requested in accordance with Article 6 by the Holders of a majority in aggregate princi- pal amount of the Notes (subject to this Section 12.08).           (f)    The Collateral Agent may resign at any time by notice to the Trustee (if the Trustee is not also act- ing as Collateral Agent hereunder) and the Company, such resignation to be effective upon the acceptance of a suc- cessor agent to its appointment as Collateral Agent.  If the Collateral Agent resigns under this Indenture, the Com- pany shall appoint a successor collateral agent.  If no successor collateral agent is appointed prior to the intended  effective date of the resignation of the Collateral Agent (as stated in the notice of resignation), the Trustee, at the  direction of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, may appoint  a successor collateral agent, subject to the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably with- held and which shall not be required during a continuing Event of Default).  If no successor collateral agent is ap- pointed and consented to by the Company pursuant to the preceding sentence within thirty (30) days after the in- tended effective date of resignation (as stated in the notice of resignation) the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to  petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor.  Upon the acceptance of its appointment as succes- sor collateral agent hereunder, such successor collateral agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the  retiring Collateral Agent, and the term “Collateral Agent” shall mean such successor collateral agent, and the retir- ing Collateral Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as the Collateral Agent shall be terminated.  After the retiring  Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Section 12.08 (and Section 7.07) shall continue to  inure to its benefit and the retiring Collateral Agent shall not by reason of such resignation be deemed to be released  from liability as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Collateral Agent under this Inden- ture.           (g)    The Trustee shall initially act as Collateral Agent and shall be authorized to appoint co-Collateral  Agents as necessary in its sole discretion.  Except as otherwise explicitly provided herein or in the Security Docu- ments or the Intercreditor Agreements, neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its respective officers, directors, em- ployees or agents or other Related Persons shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the  Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral  upon the request of any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part  thereof.  The Collateral Agent shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exer- cise of such powers, and neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be  responsible for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.           (h)    The Collateral Agent is authorized and directed to (i) enter into the Security Documents to which  it is party, whether executed on or after the Issue Date, (ii) enter into the Intercreditor Agreements (including joinder  agreements thereto), (iii) make the representations of the Holders set forth in the Security Documents and Intercredi- tor Agreements, (iv) bind the Holders on the terms as set forth in the Security Documents and the Intercreditor  Agreements and (v) perform and observe its obligations under the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agree- ments.           (i)    If at any time or times the Trustee shall receive (i) by payment, foreclosure, set-off or otherwise,  any proceeds of Collateral or any payments with respect to the Obligations arising under, or relating to, this Inden- ture, except for any such proceeds or payments received by the Trustee from the Collateral Agent pursuant to the                                                 -120-     





 






  terms of this Indenture, or (ii) payments from the Collateral Agent in excess of the amount required to be paid to the  Trustee pursuant to Article 6, the Trustee shall promptly turn the same over to the Collateral Agent, in kind, and  with such endorsements as may be required to negotiate the same to the Collateral Agent such proceeds to be ap- plied by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor   Agreements.           (j)     The Collateral Agent is each Holder’s agent for the purpose of perfecting the Holders’ security   interest in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code can be perfected only by   possession.  Should the Trustee obtain possession of any such Collateral, upon request from the Company, the Trus- tee shall notify the Collateral Agent thereof and promptly shall deliver such Collateral to the Collateral Agent or oth- erwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Collateral Agent’s instructions.           (k)     The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the Trustee or any of the Holders to   assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by any Grantor or is cared for, protected, or insured or has been encum- bered, or that the Collateral Agent’s Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, pro- tected, maintained or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to determine whether all or the Grantor’s  property constituting collateral intended to be subject to the Lien and security interest of the Security Documents has  been properly and completely listed or delivered, as the case may be, or the genuineness, validity, marketability or   sufficiency thereof or title thereto, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclo-  sure, or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities, and powers granted or available to the Col-  lateral Agent pursuant to this Indenture, any Security Document or the Intercreditor Agreements other than pursuant   to the instructions of the Trustee or the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes or as other-  wise provided in the Security Documents.           (l)     If the Company or any Guarantor (i) incurs any obligations in respect of First Lien Obligations,   ABL Obligations or Permitted Junior Lien Obligations at any time when no applicable intercreditor agreement is in   effect or at any time when Indebtedness constituting First Lien Obligations, ABL Obligations or Permitted Junior   Lien Obligations entitled to the benefit of an existing Intercreditor Agreement is concurrently retired, and (ii) deliv-  ers to the Collateral Agent an Officer’s Certificate so stating and requesting the Collateral Agent to enter into an in-  tercreditor agreement specifically contemplated hereby (on substantially the same terms as the applicable Intercredi-  tor Agreement) in favor of a designated agent or representative for the holders of the First Lien Obligations, ABL   Obligations or Permitted Junior Lien Obligations so incurred, together with an Opinion of Counsel, the Collateral   Agent shall (and is hereby authorized and directed to) enter into such intercreditor agreement (at the sole and reason-  able expense and cost of the Company, including reasonable legal fees and expenses of outside counsel to the Col-  lateral Agent), bind the Holders on the terms set forth therein and perform and observe its obligations thereunder;   provided that neither an Officer’s Certificate nor an Opinion of Counsel shall be required in connection with the ap- plicable Intercreditor Agreements to be entered into by the Collateral Agent on the Issue Date.            (m)     No provision of this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements or any Security Document shall re-  quire the Collateral Agent (or the Trustee) to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability   in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or thereunder or to take or omit to take any action hereunder or   thereunder or take any action at the request or direction of Holders (or the Trustee in the case of the Collateral   Agent) if it shall have received indemnity satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and the Trustee against potential costs   and liabilities incurred by the Collateral Agent relating thereto.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained   in this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements or the Security Documents, in the event the Collateral Agent is enti-  tled or required to commence an action to foreclose or otherwise exercise its remedies to acquire control or posses-  sion of the Collateral, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to commence any such action or exercise  any rem-  edy or to inspect or conduct any studies of any property under the mortgages or take any such other action if the   Collateral Agent has determined that the Collateral Agent may incur personal liability as a result of the presence at,   or release on or from, the Collateral or such property, of any hazardous substances.  The Collateral Agent shall at   any time be entitled to cease taking any action described in this clause if it no longer reasonably deems any indem-  nity, security or undertaking from the Company or the Holders to be sufficient.           (n)     The Collateral Agent (i) shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in con-  nection with this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements and the Security Documents or instrument referred to   herein or therein, except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a                                                 -121-     





 






  court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, (ii) shall not be   liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Collateral Agent may agree in writing with the Com-  pany  and (iii) may consult with counsel of its selection and the advice or opinion of such counsel shall be full and   complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered by it in good   faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.  The grant of permissive rights or powers to the   Collateral Agent shall not be construed to impose duties to act.           (o)     Neither the Collateral Agent nor the Trustee shall be liable for delays or failures in performance   resulting from acts beyond its control.  Such acts shall include but not be limited to acts of God, strikes, lockouts,   riots, acts of war, epidemics, governmental regulations superimposed after the fact, fire, communication line fail-  ures, computer viruses, power failures, earthquakes or other disasters.  Neither the Collateral Agent nor the Trustee  shall be liable for any indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages (included but not limited to  lost profits) whatsoever, even if it has been informed of the likelihood thereof and regardless of the form of action.           (p)    The Collateral Agent does not assume any responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or  any breach by the Company or any other Grantor under this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements and the Security  Documents.  The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible to the Holders or any other Person for any recitals, state- ments, information, representations or warranties contained in this Indenture, the Security Documents, the Intercred- itor Agreements or in any certificate, report, statement, or other document referred to or provided for in, or received  by the Collateral Agent under or in connection with, this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements or any Security  Document; the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of the Intercreditor Agreements and  any Security Documents of any other party thereto; the genuineness, enforceability, collectability, value, sufficiency,  location or existence of any Collateral, or the validity, effectiveness, enforceability, sufficiency, extent, perfection or  priority of any Lien therein; the validity, enforceability or collectability of any Obligations; the assets, liabilities,  financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any obligor; or for any failure  of any obligor to perform its Obligations under this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements and the Security Docu- ments.  The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to any Holder or any other Person to ascertain or inquire into  the existence of any Default or Event of Default, the observance or performance by any obligor of any terms of this  Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements and the Security Documents, or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent  contained in this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements and any Security Documents.  The Collateral Agent shall  not be required to initiate or conduct any litigation or collection or other proceeding under this Indenture, the Inter- creditor Agreements and the Security Documents unless expressly set forth hereunder or thereunder.  The Collateral  Agent shall have the right at any time to seek instructions from the Holders with respect to the administration of this  Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements.           (q)    The parties hereto and the Holders hereby agree and acknowledge that neither the Collateral Agent  nor the Trustee shall assume, be responsible for or otherwise be obligated for any liabilities, claims, causes of action,  suits, losses, allegations, requests, demands, penalties, fines, settlements, damages (including foreseeable and un- foreseeable), judgments, expenses and costs (including but not limited to, any remediation, corrective action, re- sponse, removal or remedial action, or investigation, operations and maintenance or monitoring costs, for personal  injury or property damages, real or personal) of any kind whatsoever, pursuant to any environmental law as a result  of this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements, the Security Documents or any actions taken pursuant hereto or  thereto.  Further, the parties hereto and the Holders hereby agree and acknowledge that in the exercise of its rights  under this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements and the Security Documents, the Collateral Agent may hold or  obtain indicia of ownership primarily to protect the security interest of the Collateral Agent in the Collateral and that  any such actions taken by the Collateral Agent shall not be construed as or otherwise constitute any participation in  the management of such Collateral.  In the event that the Collateral Agent or the Trustee is required to acquire title  to an asset for any reason, or take any managerial action of any kind in regard thereto which in the Collateral  Agent’s or the Trustee’s, as applicable, sole discretion may cause the Collateral Agent or the Trustee to be consid- ered an “owner or operator” under the provisions of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation  and Liability Act (“CERCLA”), 42 U.S.C. §9601, et seq., or otherwise cause the Collateral Agent or the Trustee to  incur liability under CERCLA or any other federal, state or local law, each of the Collateral Agent and the Trustee,  as applicable,  reserves the right, instead of taking such action, to either resign as the Collateral Agent or the Trustee  or arrange for the transfer of the title or control of the asset to a court-appointed receiver.  Neither the Collateral  Agent nor the Trustee shall be liable to the Company, the Guarantors or any other Person for any environmental  claims or contribution actions under any federal, state or local law, rule or regulation by reason of the Collateral                                                  -122-     





 






  Agent or the Trustee’s actions and conduct as authorized, empowered and directed hereunder or relating to the dis- charge, release or threatened release of hazardous materials into the environment.  If at any time it is necessary or  advisable for property to be possessed, owned, operated or managed by any Person (including the Collateral Agent  or the Trustee) other than the Company or the Guarantors, a majority in interest of Holders shall direct the Collateral  Agent or the Trustee to appoint an appropriately qualified Person (excluding the Collateral Agent or the Trustee)  who they shall designate to possess, own, operate or manage, as the case may be, the property.           (r)    Upon the receipt by the Collateral Agent of a written request of the Company signed by an Officer  (a “Security Document Order”), the Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to execute and enter into, and shall exe- cute and enter into, without the further consent of any Holder or the Trustee, any Security Document to be executed   after the Issue Date.  Such Security Document Order shall (i) state that it is being delivered to the Collateral Agent  pursuant to, and is a Security Document Order referred to in, this Section 12.08(r), and (ii) instruct the Collateral  Agent to execute and enter into such Security Document.  Any such execution of a Security Document shall be at  the direction and expense of the Company, upon delivery to the Collateral Agent of an Officer’s Certificate and  Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent to the execution and delivery of the Security Document  have been satisfied.  The Holders, by their acceptance of the Notes, hereby authorize and direct the Collateral Agent   to execute such Security Documents.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Collateral Agent be re-  quired to execute and enter into any such Security Document if the Collateral Agent determines in its sole discretion   that such Security Document may adversely affect any of the Collateral Agent’s rights, benefits, immunities, privi-  leges or indemnities hereunder, require the Collateral Agent to expend or risk its own funds or cause the Collateral   Agent to incur any loss, liability or expense.           (s)     Subject to the provisions of the applicable Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements,   each Holder, by acceptance of the Notes, agrees that the Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver the Intercreditor   Agreements and the Security Documents to which it is a party and all agreements, documents and instruments inci-  dental thereto, and act in accordance with the terms thereof.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Collateral Agent shall   have no discretion under this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements or the Security Documents and shall not be   required to make or give any determination, consent, approval, request or direction without the written direction of   the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes, the Trustee or, as expressly  set forth herein, the Company, as applicable, subject, in each case, to all the rights, protections, privileges, indemni-  ties and immunities afforded the Collateral Agent and the Trustee hereunder and under the Security Documents.           (t)     After the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee, acting at the direction of   the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, may direct the Collateral   Agent in connection with any action required or permitted by this Indenture, the Security Documents or the Inter- creditor Agreements.           (u)    The Collateral Agent is authorized to receive any funds for the benefit of itself, the Trustee and the  Holders distributed under the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements and to the extent not prohibited  under the Intercreditor Agreements, for turnover to the Trustee to make further distributions of such funds to itself,  the Trustee and the Holders in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.13 and the other provisions of this Inden- ture.           (v)    In each case that the Collateral Agent may or is required hereunder or under any Security Docu- ment or any Intercreditor Agreement to take any action (an “Action”), including without limitation to make any de- termination, to give consents, to exercise rights, powers or remedies, to release or sell Collateral or otherwise to act  hereunder or under any Security Document or any Intercreditor Agreement, the Collateral Agent may seek direction  from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes.  The Collateral Agent  shall not be liable with respect to any Action taken or omitted to be taken by it in accordance with the direction from  the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes.  If the Collateral Agent shall  request direction from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes with  respect to any Action, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such Action unless and until the Collat- eral Agent shall have received direction from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then  outstanding Notes, and the Collateral Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining.                                                   -123-     





 






          (w)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or in any Security Document or any   Intercreditor Agreement, in no event shall the Collateral Agent or the Trustee be responsible for, or have any duty or   obligation with respect to, the recording, filing, registering, perfection, protection or maintenance of the security in-  terests or Liens intended to be created by this Indenture, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements   (including without limitation the filing or continuation of any UCC financing or continuation statements or similar   documents or instruments), nor shall the Collateral Agent or the Trustee be responsible for, and neither the Collat-  eral Agent nor the Trustee makes any representation regarding, the validity, effectiveness or priority of any of the   Security Documents or the security interests or Liens intended to be created thereby.           (x)    Before the Collateral Agent acts or refrains from acting in each case at the request or direction of  the Company or the Guarantors, it may require an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, which shall con- form to the provisions of this Section 12.08 and Section 13.04.  The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any ac- tion it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such certificate or opinion.

Such  service may be made by mailing or delivering a copy of such process to the respective Guarantor in care of the Pro- cess Agent at the address specified above for the Process Agent, and such Guarantor irrevocably authorizes and di- rects the Process Agent to accept such service on its behalf.  Failure by the Process Agent to give notice to the re- spective Guarantor, or failure of the respective Guarantor, to receive notice of such service of process shall not im- pair or affect the validity of such service on the Process Agent or any such Guarantor, or of any judgment based  thereon.
