(3)subject to clause (2) above, the amount of Debt under any revolving Debt Facility outstanding on the Transaction Date (other than any Debt Incurred under such facility in connection with the transaction giving rise to calculate the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio) will be deemed to be: (A) the average daily balance of such Debt during such Four Quarter Period or such shorter period for which such facility was outstanding or (B) if such facility was created after the end of such Four Quarter Period, the average daily balance of such Debt during the period from the date of creation of such facility to the date of such determination;
(4)interest on a Capital Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Company to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capital Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP;
(5)if any Debt to which pro forma effect is being given bears a floating rate of interest, the interest expense on such Debt will be calculated as if the rate in effect on the Transaction Date had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Hedging Obligation applicable to such Debt if such Hedging Obligation has a remaining term as at the Transaction Date in excess of 12 months); and

(6)if interest on any Debt actually Incurred on the Transaction Date may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a eurocurrency interbank offered rate, or other rates, then the interest rate in effect on the Transaction Date will be deemed to have been in effect during the Four Quarter Period.
If such Person or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries directly or indirectly Guarantees Debt of a third Person and such Guarantee or the Debt subject thereto is not otherwise included in the calculation of Consolidated Fixed Charges, the calculation of the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall give effect to the Incurrence of such Guaranteed Debt as if such Person or such Subsidiary had directly Incurred or otherwise assumed such Guaranteed Debt and as if such Guarantee occurred on the first day of the Four Quarter Period.

	Section 1.04
	Acts of Holders.


(a)    Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing.  Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments or record or both are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company and the Guarantors.  Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent, or the holding by any Person of a Note, shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 7.01) conclusive in favor of the Trustee, the Company and the Guarantors, if made in the manner provided in this Section 1.04.
(b)    The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved (1) by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by the certificate of any notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof or (2) in any other manner deemed reasonably sufficient by the Trustee.  Where such execution is by or on behalf of any legal entity other than an individual, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute proof of the authority of the Person executing the same.  The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner that the Trustee deems sufficient.
(c)    The ownership of Notes shall be proved by the Note Register.
(d)    Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action by the Holder of any Note shall bind every future Holder of the same Note and the Holder of every Note issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by the Trustee, the Company or the Guarantors in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note.
(e)    The Company may set a record date for purposes of determining the identity of Holders entitled to make, give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to be made, or to vote on or consent to any action authorized or permitted to be taken by Holders; provided that the Company may not set a record date for, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to, the giving or making of any notice, declaration, request or direction referred to in clause (f) below.  Unless otherwise specified, if not set by the Company prior to the first solicitation of a Holder made by any Person in respect of any such action, or in the case of any such vote, prior to such vote, any such record date shall be the later of 30 days prior to the first solicitation of such consent or vote or the date of the most recent list of Holders furnished to the Trustee prior to such solicitation or vote.  If any record date is set pursuant to this clause (e), the Holders on such record date, and only such Holders, shall be entitled to make, give or take such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action (including revocation of any action), whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless made, given or taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Notes, or each affected Holder, as applicable, on such record date.  Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Company, at its own expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Trustee in writing and to each Holder in the manner set forth in Section 13.01.


-41-







(f)    The Trustee may (but shall not be obligated to) set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to join in the giving or making of (1) any notice of default under Section 6.01, (2) any declaration of acceleration referred to in Section 6.02, (3) any direction referred to in Section 6.05 or (4) any request to pursue a remedy as permitted in Section 6.06.  If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to join in such notice, declaration, request or direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless made, given or taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Notes or each affected Holder, as applicable, on such record date.  Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee, at the Company’s expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Company and to each Holder in the manner set forth in Section 13.01.
(g)    Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled to take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Note may do so with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Note or by one or more duly appointed agents, each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount.  Any notice given or action taken by a Holder or its agents with regard to different parts of such principal amount pursuant to this paragraph shall have the same effect as if given or taken by separate Holders of each such different part.
(h)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a Holder, including a Depositary that is the Holder of a Global Note, may make, give or take, by a proxy or proxies duly appointed in writing, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to be made, given or taken by Holders, and a Depositary that is the Holder of a Global Note may provide its proxy or proxies to the beneficial owners of interests in any such Global Note through such Depositary’s standing instructions and customary practices.
(i)    The Company may fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Persons who are beneficial owners of interests in any Global Note held by a Depositary entitled under the procedures of such Depositary, if any, to make, give or take, by a proxy or proxies duly appointed in writing, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to be made, given or taken by Holders; provided that the Company may not fix a record date for, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to, the giving or making of any notice, declaration, request or direction referred to in clause (f) above; provided further that if such a record date is fixed, only the beneficial owners of interests in such Global Note on such record date or their duly appointed proxy or proxies shall be entitled to make, give or take such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, whether or not such beneficial owners remain beneficial owners of interests in such Global Note after such record date.  No such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action shall be effective hereunder unless made, given or taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date.
(j)    With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 1.04, the party hereto that sets such record date may designate any day as the “Expiration Date” and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided that no such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration Date is given to the other party hereto in writing, and to each Holder of Notes in the manner set forth in Section 13.01, on or prior to both the existing and the new Expiration Date.  If an Expiration Date is not designated with respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 1.04, the party hereto which set such record date shall be deemed to have initially designated the 90th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to its right to change the Expiration Date as provided in this clause (j).

ARTICLE 2
THE NOTES
		
	Section 2.01
	Form and Dating; Terms.


(a)    Provisions relating to the Notes issued under this Indenture are set forth in Appendix A, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Indenture.  The Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall each be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Indenture.  The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, rules or agreements with national securities exchanges to which the Company or any Guarantor is subject, if any, or usage (provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Company and shall not affect the rights, duties, powers or immunities of the Trustee without the consent of the Trustee).  Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication.  The Notes shall be in denominations of $150,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof (or if a PIK Payment has been made, in denominations of $1.00 and any integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof).
(b)    The aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is unlimited.
The terms and provisions contained in the Notes shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture, and the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby.  However, to the extent any provision of any Note conflicts with the express provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling.
The Notes shall be subject to repurchase by the Company pursuant to an Offer to Purchase as provided in Section 4.15 or Section 4.16, and otherwise as not prohibited by this Indenture.  The Notes shall not be redeemable, other than as provided in Article 3.
		
	Section 2.02
	Execution and Authentication.


(a)    At least one Officer shall execute the Notes on behalf of 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 shall nevertheless be valid.
(b)    A Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose until authenticated substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto by the manual signature of an authorized signatory of the Trustee.  The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been duly authenticated and delivered under this Indenture.
(c)    On the Issue Date, the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a written order of the Company signed by an Officer (an “Authentication Order”), authenticate and deliver the Initial Notes.  In addition, at any time and from time to time, the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate and deliver any PIK Notes (or shall increase the principal amount of any Global Note) in an aggregate principal amount specified in such Authentication Order for such PIK Notes issued hereunder (or for such increase in principal amount of any Global Note).
(d)    The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Company to authenticate Notes.  An authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so.  


-43-







Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent.  An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with Holders, the Company or an Affiliate of the Company.
(e)    The Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery upon receipt of an Authentication Order (i) Initial Notes for original issue on the Issue Date in an aggregate principal amount of $300,000,000, (ii) subject to the terms of this Indenture, PIK Notes (or shall increase the principal amount of any Global Note) and (iii) any other Notes issued in accordance with this Indenture.  Such Authentication Order shall specify the amount of the Notes to be authenticated, the date on which the original issue of Notes is to be authenticated and whether the Notes are to be Initial Notes, PIK Notes, Unrestricted Global Notes or other Notes.
(f)    On any Interest Payment Date on which the Company pays PIK Interest (a “PIK Payment”), with respect to a Global Note, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the Trustee shall increase the principal amount of such Global Note by an amount equal to the interest payable, rounded up to the nearest whole dollar, for the relevant interest period on the principal amount of such Global Note as of the relevant Record Date for such Interest Payment Date, to the credit of the Holders on such Record Date and an adjustment shall be made on the books and records of the Trustee with respect to such Global Note to reflect such increase. On any Interest Payment Date on which the Company makes a PIK Payment by issuing Definitive Notes (a “PIK Note”), the principal amount of any such PIK Note issued to any Holder, for the relevant interest period as of the relevant Record Date for such Interest Payment Date, shall be rounded up to the nearest whole dollar.
		
	Section 2.03
	Registrar and Paying Agent.


(a)    The Company shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”) and at least one office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”).  The Registrar shall 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 Paying Agent or Registrar without prior 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 or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may act as the Paying Agent or the Registrar.
(b)    The Company initially appoints DTC to act as Depositary with respect to the Global Notes.  The Company initially appoints the Trustee to act as Paying Agent and Registrar for the Notes and to act as Custodian with respect to the Global Notes.
		
	Section 2.04
	Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust.


The Company shall, no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on each due date for the payment of principal, premium and Additional Amounts, if any, and interest on any of the Notes, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such amount, such sum to be held in trust for the Holders entitled to the same, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act.  The Company shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that such Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by such Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium and Additional Amounts, if any, and interest on the Notes, and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in 


-44-







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, a Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money.  If the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall 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 or reorganization proceedings relating to the Company, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes.
		
	Section 2.05
	Holder Lists.


The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of all Holders.  If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee at least two Business Days before each Interest Payment Date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders.
		
	Section 2.06
	Transfer and Exchange.


(a)    The Notes shall be issued in registered form and shall be transferable only upon the surrender of a Note for registration of transfer and in compliance with Appendix A.
(b)    To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02 or at the Registrar’s request.
(c)    No service charge shall be imposed on any Holder by the Company, any Guarantor, the Trustee or the Registrar in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Holders shall be required to pay 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, 4.15, 4.16 and 9.04).
(d)    All Global Notes and Definitive Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Notes or Definitive Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global Notes or Definitive Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.
(e)    Neither the Company nor the Registrar shall be required (1) to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note 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 and ending at the close of business on the day of selection, (2) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note so selected for redemption, or tendered for repurchase (and not withdrawn) in connection with an Offer to Purchase under Section 4.15 or Section 4.16, in whole or in part, except the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of any Note being redeemed or repurchased in part or (3) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note between a Record Date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date.
(f)    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, premium and Additional Amounts, if any, and (subject to the Record Date provisions of the Notes) interest on such 


-45-







Notes and for all other purposes, and none of the Trustee, any Agent or the Company shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
(g)    Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 4.01, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and mail, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more replacement Notes of any authorized denomination or denominations of a like aggregate principal amount.
(h)    At the option of the Holder, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of any authorized denomination or denominations of a like aggregate principal amount upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or agency.  Whenever any Global Notes or Definitive Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and mail, the replacement Global Notes and Definitive Notes which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to in accordance with the provisions of Appendix A.
(i)    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 mail or by facsimile or electronic transmission.
		
	Section 2.07
	Replacement Notes.


If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or if a Holder claims that its Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the ownership and loss, destruction or theft of such Note, the Company shall issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are otherwise met.  If required by the Trustee or the Company, an indemnity bond must be provided 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 the Holder for the expenses of the Company and the Trustee in replacing a Note.  Every replacement Note is a contractual obligation of the Company and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder.  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.07, in case any mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay such Note.
		
	Section 2.08
	Outstanding Notes.


(a)    The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding.  Except as set forth in Section 2.09, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Note; provided that Notes held by the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company will not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of Section 3.07(c).
(b)    If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser, as such term is defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State of New York.


-46-







(c)    If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue from and after the date of such payment.
(d)    If a Paying Agent (other than the Company, a Restricted Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on the maturity date, any redemption date or any date of purchase pursuant to an Offer to Purchase, money sufficient to pay Notes payable or to be redeemed or purchased on that date, then on and after that date such Notes shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding and shall cease to accrue interest.
		
	Section 2.09
	Treasury Notes.


In determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes beneficially owned by the Company, or by any Affiliate of the Company, shall be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded.  Notes so owned which have been pledged in good faith shall not be disregarded if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right to deliver any such direction, waiver or consent with respect to the Notes and that the pledgee is not the Company or any obligor upon the Notes or any Affiliate of the Company or of such other obligor.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Notes that are to be acquired by the Company or by any Affiliate of the Company pursuant to an exchange offer, tender offer or other agreement shall not be deemed to be owned by such entity until legal title to such Notes passes to such entity; provided, however, the Trustee shall not be charged with such knowledge until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee is so informed in writing.
		
	Section 2.10
	Temporary Notes.


Until definitive Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate temporary Notes.  Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of definitive Notes but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.  Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes.  Holders and beneficial holders, as the case may be, of temporary Notes shall be entitled to all of the benefits accorded to Holders, or beneficial holders, respectively, of Notes under this Indenture.
		
	Section 2.11
	Cancellation.


The Company at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation.  The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment.  The Trustee or, at the direction of the Trustee, the Registrar or the Paying Agent and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall destroy cancelled Notes in accordance with its customary procedures (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act).  Certification of the cancellation of any Notes shall, upon the written request of the Company, 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 (other than as set forth in this Indenture).


-47-







		
	Section 2.12
	Defaulted Interest.


(a)    If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it shall pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01.  The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such defaulted interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such defaulted interest as provided in this Section 2.12.  The Trustee shall fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date; provided that no such special record date shall be less than ten days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest.  The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such special record date.  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) shall mail or deliver by electronic transmission in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary, or cause to be mailed or delivered by electronic transmission in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary, to each Holder a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid.
(b)    Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.12 and for greater certainty, each Note delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue interest, which were carried by such other Note.
		
	Section 2.13
	CUSIP and ISIN Numbers


The Company in issuing the Notes may use CUSIP or ISIN numbers (if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee shall use CUSIP or ISIN numbers in notices of redemption or exchange or in Offers to Purchase 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 or exchange or in Offers to Purchase and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption or exchange or Offer to Purchase shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers.  The Company shall as promptly as practicable notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the CUSIP or ISIN numbers.
ARTICLE 3
REDEMPTION
		
	Section 3.01
	Notices to Trustee.


If the Company elects to redeem Notes pursuant to Section 3.07, it shall furnish to the Trustee, at least five Business Days before notice of redemption is required to be mailed or caused to be mailed to Holders pursuant to Section 3.03 (unless a shorter notice shall be agreed to by the Trustee) but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, an Officers’ Certificate setting forth (1) the paragraph or subparagraph of such Note or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the redemption shall occur, (2) the redemption date, (3) the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (4) the redemption price, if then ascertainable.

	Section 3.02
	Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed or Purchased.


(a)    In the case of any partial redemption pursuant to Section 3.07 or if less than all of the Notes are purchased in an Offer, selection of the Notes for redemption or purchase, as applicable, shall be made by the Trustee in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed or, if the Notes are not listed, then a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee deems to be fair and appropriate or in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary (in the case of Global Notes).
(b)    The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Notes selected for redemption or purchase and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption or purchase, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed or purchased.  Notes and portions of Notes selected shall be in amounts of $150,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof (or if a PIK Payment has been made, in denominations of $1.00 and any integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof); provided that no Notes in principal amount equal to the minimum denomination or less shall be redeemed in part.  Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption or purchase also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase.
(c)    After the redemption date or purchase date, upon surrender of a Note to be redeemed or purchased in part only, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of the original Note, representing the same Debt to the extent not redeemed or not purchased, shall be issued in the name of the Holder of the Notes upon cancellation of the original Note (or appropriate book entries shall be made to reflect such partial redemption).
		
	Section 3.03
	Notice of Redemption.

Notice of any redemption may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including the completion of an equity offering, acquisition, financing or other corporate transaction. The redemption date may, in the Company’s discretion, be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied and the Company, in its discretion, may rescind the notice of redemption in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the redemption date or by the redemption date as so delayed.
(b)    The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed (including CUSIP and ISIN number, if applicable) and shall state:
(1)    the redemption date;
(2)    the redemption price, including the portion thereof representing any accrued and unpaid interest; provided that in connection with a redemption under Section 3.07(b), the notice need not set forth the redemption price but only the manner of calculation thereof;

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

(6)    that, unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment or the Paying Agent is prohibited from making such payment pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, interest on Notes called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date;
(7)    the paragraph or subparagraph of the Notes 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 or ISIN number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes; and
(9)    if applicable, any condition to such redemption.
(c)    At the Company’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense; provided that the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least five Business Days before notice of redemption is required to be sent or caused to be sent to Holders pursuant to this Section 3.03 (unless a shorter notice shall be agreed to by the Trustee), an Officers’ Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in Section 3.03(b).
		
	Section 3.04
	Effect of Notice of Redemption.


Once notice of redemption is mailed (or delivered by electronic transmission in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary) in accordance with Section 3.03, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the redemption date at the redemption price (except as provided for in Section 3.03(a)).  The notice, if mailed or delivered by electronic transmission 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 or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Note designated for redemption in whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Note.  Subject to Section 3.05, on and after the redemption date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption.
		
	Section 3.05
	Deposit of Redemption or Purchase Price.


(a)    No later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the redemption or purchase date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption or purchase price of and accrued and unpaid interest on all Notes to be redeemed or purchased on that date.  The Paying Agent shall promptly mail to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed or repurchased the applicable redemption or purchase price thereof and accrued and unpaid interest thereon.  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 redemption or purchase price of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, all Notes to be redeemed or purchased.


-50-







(b)    If the Company complies with the provisions of Section 3.05(a), on and after the redemption or purchase date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase.  If any Note called for redemption or purchase shall not be so paid upon surrender for redemption or purchase because of the failure of the Company to comply with Section 3.05(a), interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption or purchase date until such principal is paid, and, to the extent lawful, on any interest accrued to the redemption or purchase date not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01.
		
	Section 3.06
	Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part.


Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed or purchased in part, the Company shall issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail to the Holder (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) at the expense of the Company a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered representing the same Debt to the extent not redeemed or purchased; provided that each new Note shall be in a principal amount of $150,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof (or if a PIK Payment has been made, in denominations of $1.00 and any integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof).  It is understood that, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, only an Authentication Order and not an Opinion of Counsel or Officers’ Certificate is required for the Trustee to authenticate such new Note.
		
	Section 3.07
	Optional Redemption.


(a)     Except pursuant to clause (d) of this Section 3.07, the Notes shall not be redeemable at the Company’s option prior to May 15, 2021.
(b)    On and after May 15, 2021, the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, upon not less than 15 nor more than 60 days’ notice mailed or otherwise delivered to each Holder in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary, at the redemption prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes and Additional Amounts, if any, to, but not including, the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on May 15 of each of the years indicated below:

(d)    The Company may redeem the Notes, in whole but not in part, at its discretion at any time upon giving not less than 15 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice mailed or otherwise delivered to each Holder in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but not including, the date fixed by the Company for redemption (a “Tax Redemption Date”) and Additional Amounts, if any, then due or which will become due on the Tax Redemption Date as a result of the redemption or otherwise (subject to the right of Holders of the Notes on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date and Additional Amounts, if any, in respect thereof), if on the next date on which any amount would be payable in respect of the Notes, the Company or a Guarantor is or would be required to pay Additional Amounts, and the Company or such Guarantor cannot avoid any such payment obligation by taking reasonable measures available, and the requirement arises as a result of (i) any change in, repeal of or amendment to the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of the applicable Relevant Tax Jurisdiction affecting taxation which change, repeal or amendment becomes effective on or after the Issue Date (or, if the applicable Relevant Tax Jurisdiction has changed since the Issue Date, the date on which the then current Relevant Tax Jurisdiction became the applicable Relevant Tax Jurisdiction under this Indenture) or (ii) any change in, repeal of or amendment to the existing official position or the introduction of an official position regarding the application, administration or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings (including a holding, judgment or order by a court of competent jurisdiction or a change in published practice), which change, repeal, amendment, application, administration or interpretation becomes effective on or after the Issue Date (or, if the applicable Relevant Tax Jurisdiction has changed since the Issue Date, the date on which the then current Relevant Tax Jurisdiction became the applicable Relevant Tax Jurisdiction under this Indenture) (each of the foregoing in clauses (i) and (ii), a “Change in Tax Law”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such notice of redemption shall be given earlier than 60 days prior to the earliest date on which the Company or a Guarantor would be obligated to make a payment of Additional Amounts if such a payment in respect of the Notes were then due, and at the time such notice is given, the obligation to pay Additional Amounts remains in effect. Prior to the publication, delivery or, where relevant, mailing of any notice of redemption of the Notes pursuant to the foregoing, the Company will deliver to the Trustee (1) an opinion of an independent tax expert, such tax expert being a law or accounting firm, to the effect that there has been a Change in Tax Law which would entitle the Company to redeem the Notes hereunder and (2) an Officers’ Certificate stating that the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, cannot avoid its obligation to pay Additional Amounts by taking reasonable measures available to it. Such opinion of the tax expert and Officers’ Certificate shall be sufficient evidence of the existence and satisfaction of the conditions precedent as described above and will be conclusive and binding on the Holders. 
(e)    Any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06.
(f)    If the optional redemption date is on or after a Record Date but on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, then any accrued and unpaid interest in respect of Notes subject to redemption will be paid on the redemption date to the Person in whose name the Note is registered at the 


-52-







close of business on such Record Date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders whose Notes will be subject to redemption by the Company.
		
	Section 3.08
	Mandatory Redemption.


The Company will not be required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. The Company or any of its Affiliates may at any time, and from time to time, acquire Notes by means other than a redemption, whether by tender offer, open market purchases, negotiated transactions or otherwise, in accordance with applicable securities laws so long as such acquisition does not otherwise violate the terms of this Indenture.

The Company shall 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 shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail 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 additional 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.

In addition, to the extent not satisfied by the foregoing, for so long as any Notes are outstanding, the Company will furnish to the Holders and to prospective purchasers of the Notes, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act.

constitute a Restricted Payment notwithstanding this clause (ii) and clause (15) of the definition of “Permitted Investments.”
(d)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may repurchase, exchange or induce the conversion of Permitted Convertible Notes by delivery of shares of the Company’s common stock and/or a different series of Permitted Convertible Notes (which series (x) matures after, and does not require any scheduled amortization or other scheduled payments of principal prior to, the analogous date under the indenture governing the Permitted Convertible Notes that are so repurchased, exchanged or converted and (y) has terms, conditions and covenants that are no less favorable to the Company than the Permitted Convertible Notes that are so repurchased, exchanged or converted (as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company, or a committee thereof, in good faith)) (any such series of Permitted Convertible Notes, “Refinancing Convertible Notes”) and/or by payment of cash (in an amount that does not exceed the proceeds received by the Company from the substantially concurrent issuance of shares of the Company’s common stock and/or Refinancing Convertible Notes plus the net cash proceeds, if any, received by the Company pursuant to the related exercise or early unwinding or termination of the related Permitted Call Spread Swap Contracts pursuant to the immediately following proviso); provided that, substantially concurrently with, or a commercially reasonable period of time before or after, the related settlement date for the Permitted Convertible Notes that are so repurchased, exchanged or converted, the Company shall (and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be permitted under this Section 4.08 to) exercise or unwind or terminate early (whether in cash, shares or any combination thereof) the portion of the Permitted Call Spread Swap Contracts, if any, corresponding to such Permitted Convertible Notes that are so repurchased, exchanged or converted.
(e)    Solely for purposes of determining whether all or any portion of any Restricted Payment is permitted under clause (9) or (10) of Section 4.08(b), the Company, in its sole discretion, shall classify or divide, and from time to time may reclassify or redivide, all or any portion of such Restricted Payment under such clauses (9) and (10) in any manner that complies with such clauses; provided that the Available Restricted Payments Amount shall be determined without regard to any such reclassification or redivision. For purposes of this Section 4.08, if a particular Restricted Payment involves a non-cash payment, including a distribution of assets, then such Restricted Payment shall be deemed to be an amount equal to the cash portion of such Restricted Payment, if any, plus an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the non-cash portion of such Restricted Payment. The Fair Market Value of any assets or securities that are required to be valued by this Section 4.08 will be determined by, in the case of amounts under $30.0 million, by an Officer of the Company and, in the case of amounts equal to or greater than $30.0 million, the Board of Directors of the Company whose resolution with respect thereto will be delivered to the Trustee.
		
	Section 4.09
	Limitation on Incurrence of Debt.


(a)    The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, Incur any Debt (including Acquired Debt); provided, that the Company and any of the Guarantors (other than a Guarantor that provides a Limited Guarantee) may Incur any Acquired Debt or any other Debt if:
(1)    immediately after giving effect to the Incurrence of such Debt and the receipt and application of the proceeds therefrom, the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, determined on a pro forma basis as if any such Debt (including any other Debt being Incurred contemporaneously), and any other Debt Incurred since the beginning of the Four Quarter Period, had been Incurred and the proceeds thereof had been applied at the beginning of the Four Quarter Period, and any other Debt repaid (other than 


-60-







Debt Incurred under the revolving portion of a Debt Facility) since the beginning of the Four Quarter Period had been repaid at the beginning of the Four Quarter Period, would be at least 2.00 to 1.00; and
(2)    no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time or as a consequence of the Incurrence of such Debt.
(b)    Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.09(a), the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries may Incur Permitted Debt.
(c)    For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.09, in the event that an item of Debt meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt or is permitted to be Incurred under Section 4.09(a), the Company, in its sole discretion, shall classify or divide, and from time to time may reclassify or redivide, all or any portion of such item of Debt in any manner that complies with this Section 4.09, including the definition of “Permitted Debt”; provided that all Debt outstanding on the Issue Date under the Senior Credit Facilities shall be deemed Incurred under clause (1) of the definition of Permitted Debt and not Section 4.09(a) or clause (4) of the definition of Permitted Debt and may not later be reclassified. If obligations in respect of letters of credit are Incurred pursuant to a Debt Facility and relate to other Debt, then such letters of credit shall be treated as Incurred pursuant to clause (1) of the definition of Permitted Debt and such other Debt shall not be included. In addition, except as provided in the preceding sentence of this Section 4.09(c), Guarantees of, or obligations in respect of letters of credit relating to, Debt that is otherwise included in the determination of a particular amount of Debt shall not be included.
(d)    For purposes of determining compliance of any non-U.S. dollar-denominated Debt with this Section 4.09, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Debt denominated in a foreign currency shall at all times be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Debt was Incurred, in the case of term Debt, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit Debt; provided, however, that if such Debt is Incurred to refinance other Debt denominated in the same or different currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such Refinancing Debt does not exceed the principal amount of such Debt being refinanced. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.09, the maximum amount of Debt that the Company may Incur pursuant to this Section 4.09 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies. The principal amount of any Debt Incurred to refinance other Debt, if Incurred in a different currency from the Debt being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Refinancing Debt is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing. 
(e)    The accrual of interest, accrual of dividends, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of debt discount and the payment of interest on Debt in the form of additional Debt (including the issuance of any PIK Notes (and any increase in the principal amount of the Notes as a result of a PIK Payment) issued from time to time to pay PIK Interest on the Notes) and the payment of dividends on Capital Interests in the form of additional shares of Capital Interests with the same terms will not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Debt for purposes of this Section 4.09.
(f)    The following shall not be deemed a separate Incurrence of Debt: (1) the obligation to pay a premium in respect of Debt arising in connection with the issuance of a notice of 


-61-







redemption or making a mandatory offer to purchase such Debt and (2) unrealized losses or charges in respect of Hedging Obligations. 
(g)    The Company will not permit any of its Unrestricted Subsidiaries to Incur any Debt or issue any Redeemable Capital Interests (in each case, other than any Non-Recourse Debt), except as permitted by Section 4.13. If at any time an Unrestricted Subsidiary becomes a Restricted Subsidiary, any Debt of such Subsidiary shall be deemed to be Incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary as of such date (and, if such Debt is not permitted to be Incurred as of such date under this Section 4.09, the Company shall be in Default under this Section 4.09).
(h)    The Company will not, and will not permit any Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, Incur any Debt (including Acquired Debt) that is or purports to be by its terms (or by the terms of any agreement governing such Debt) subordinated or junior in right of payment to any other Debt (including Acquired Debt) of the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be, unless such Debt is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or such Guarantor’s Note Guarantee, as the case may be, to the same extent and in the same manner as such Debt is subordinated to such other Debt of the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be. For purposes of the foregoing, no Debt will be deemed to be contractually subordinate or junior in right of payment to any other Debt solely by virtue of (1) being unsecured or (2) its having a junior priority with respect to the same collateral.
		
	Section 4.10
	Limitation on Liens.


The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, enter into, create, Incur, assume or suffer to exist any Liens of any kind (other than Permitted Liens) on or with respect to any of its property or assets (including Capital Interests of Subsidiaries), or income or profits therefrom, now owned or hereafter acquired or any of its interest therein or any income or profits therefrom, which Liens secure Debt.
		
	Section 4.11
	Future Guarantors.


(a)    On the Issue Date or thereafter, if any Restricted Subsidiary, including any newly-acquired or newly-created Restricted Subsidiary, (i) is or becomes a borrower under any Debt Facilities or Guarantees the Obligations under any Debt Facilities with an aggregate principal amount in excess of $50.0 million or (ii) is or becomes an issuer of any other capital markets debt securities or Guarantees the Obligations in respect of any capital markets debt securities with an aggregate principal amount in excess of $50.0 million, then that Restricted Subsidiary shall become a Guarantor by execution of a supplemental indenture within 30 days of the date of such event, pursuant to which such Subsidiary will irrevocably and unconditionally Guarantee, on a joint and several basis, the full and prompt payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest in respect of the Notes and all other Obligations under this Indenture on a senior basis.
(b)    Each Restricted Subsidiary that becomes a Guarantor on or after the Issue Date shall also become a party to the applicable Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements and will, within 30 days of the event specified in Section 4.11(a), execute and deliver such documents and instruments as may be necessary to vest in the Collateral Agent a second-priority security interest (subject to Permitted Liens), in each case, in the manner and to the extent set forth in the such Collateral Documents and this Indenture in assets of the type constituting Collateral as security for the Notes or the Note Guarantees, as applicable, and thereupon all provisions of this Indenture relating to the Collateral shall be deemed to relate to such assets to the same extent and with the same force and effect.


-62-







(c)    Each Note Guarantee will be limited to an amount not to exceed the maximum amount that can be guaranteed by that Guarantor without rendering the guarantee, as it relates to such Guarantor, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, abuse of corporate assets or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally or otherwise to reflect applicable laws, including laws relating to the liability of directors and managers.
(d)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein (i) a Note Guarantee provided pursuant to the terms hereof by a Restricted Subsidiary organized in a jurisdiction other than the United States, the Netherlands, Australia, Bermuda, Canada, the United Kingdom, Japan, Ireland or Jamaica, including a Note Guarantee existing on the Issue Date, may be (or may be modified to become) a Limited Guarantee if the Board of Directors of the Company, in consultation with local counsel, makes a reasonable determination that such limitations are required under the applicable law of such jurisdiction, and (ii) a Restricted Subsidiary organized in a jurisdiction other than the United States, the Netherlands, Australia, Bermuda, Canada, the United Kingdom, Japan, Ireland or Jamaica will not be required to become a Guarantor if the Board of Directors of the Company, in consultation with local counsel, makes a reasonable determination that such Restricted Subsidiary cannot provide a Note Guarantee in view of the limitations imposed by the applicable law of such jurisdiction of more than de minimis value in relation to the assets of such Restricted Subsidiary.
(e)    Any designation of a Note Guarantee as a Limited Guarantee shall be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the Trustee a certified copy of the resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company giving effect to such designation and an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such designation was made in compliance with this Indenture.
(f)    Each Note Guarantee shall be released in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.06.
(g)    From and after the Issue Date, the Company shall cause each Restricted Subsidiary that was a guarantor or borrower under the Senior Credit Facilities on the Issue Date, or each Restricted Subsidiary that became a guarantor or borrower under the Senior Credit Facilities after the Issue Date and prior to the Collateral Due Date, as soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event, no later than the Collateral Due Date, to become a Guarantor; provided that in no event shall any such Restricted Subsidiary be required to become a Guarantor prior to the time that it would have otherwise been required to become a Guarantor pursuant to Section 4.11(a).
(h)    From and after the Issue Date, with respect to the portion of the Collateral securing the Notes or the Note Guarantees, as applicable, for which a valid and perfected Lien in favor of the Collateral Agent has not been created on or prior to the Issue Date, the Company shall, and shall cause each of the Guarantors to, as soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event, no later than the Collateral Due Date, complete those actions required to create and perfect all of such Liens in such portion of the Collateral; provided that in no event shall the Company or any Guarantor be required to complete any such actions prior to the time that it would have otherwise been required to complete such actions pursuant to Section 4.11(b).
		
	Section 4.12
	Limitation on Dividend and other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries.


(a)    The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is not a Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or permit to exist or become effective or enter into any encumbrance or restriction on the ability of such Restricted Subsidiary to:


-63-







(1)    pay dividends or make any other distributions on its Capital Interests owned by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, or with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits, or pay any Debt or other obligations owed to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (it being understood that the priority of any Preferred Interests in receiving dividends or liquidating distributions prior to dividends or liquidating distributions being paid on Common Interests shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make distributions in Capital Interests); 
(2)    make loans or advances to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (it being understood that the subordination of loans or advances made to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary to other Debt Incurred by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make loans or advances); or 
(3)    sell, lease or transfer any of its property or assets to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary.
(b)    Section 4.12(a) will not apply to the following encumbrances or restrictions (including those existing under or by reason of):
(1)    contractual encumbrances or restrictions pursuant to any Debt Facilities and related documentation and other agreements or instruments in effect at or entered into on the Issue Date;
(2)    any encumbrance or restriction under this Indenture, the Notes, the Note Guarantees, the Intercreditor Agreements and the Collateral Documents;
(3)    any encumbrance or restriction existing at the time of the acquisition of property, so long as the encumbrances or restrictions relate solely to the property so acquired (and are not or were not created in anticipation of or in connection with the acquisition thereof);
(4)    any encumbrance or restriction which exists with respect to a Person that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary or merges with or into a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company on or after the Issue Date, which is in existence at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary or merges with or into a Restricted Subsidiary, but not created in connection with or in anticipation of such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary or merging with or into a Restricted Subsidiary, and which is not applicable to any Person or the property or assets of any Person other than such Person or the property or assets of such Person;
(5)    any encumbrance or restriction pursuant to an agreement effecting a permitted renewal, refunding, replacement, refinancing or extension of Debt issued pursuant to an agreement containing any encumbrance or restriction referred to in the foregoing clauses (1) through (4), so long as such encumbrances and restrictions contained in any such agreement are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to such encumbrances and restrictions than those contained in the agreements governing the Debt being renewed, refunded, replaced, refinanced or extended in the good faith judgment of the Company;
(6)    customary provisions restricting subletting or assignment of any lease, sublease, contract, or license of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary or provisions in agreements that restrict the assignment of such agreement or any rights thereunder;


-64-







(7)    any encumbrance or restriction by reason of applicable law, rule, regulation, order, approval, license, permit or similar restriction;
(8)    any encumbrance or restriction in connection with the sale of assets or Capital Interests, including, without limitation, any agreement for the sale or other disposition of a Subsidiary that restricts distributions by that Subsidiary pending its sale or other disposition;
(9)    restrictions on cash and other deposits or net worth imposed by customers or suppliers under contracts entered into the ordinary course of business;
(10)    encumbrances and restrictions under any instrument governing Debt or Capital Interests of a Person acquired by the Company or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries as in effect at the time of such acquisition (except to the extent such Debt or Capital Interests were Incurred or issued in connection with or in contemplation of such acquisition), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired; provided that, in the case of Debt, such Debt was permitted by the terms of this Indenture to be Incurred;
(11)    encumbrances or restrictions that are customary provisions in joint venture agreements, asset sale agreements, stock sale agreements, sale leaseback agreements and other similar agreements;
(12)    encumbrances and restrictions arising in respect of purchase money obligations (including Capital Lease Obligations) for property acquired in the ordinary course of business permitted under this Indenture, in each case, to the extent such restrictions and encumbrances limit the right of the debtor to dispose of assets subject to such Liens and apply to the property so acquired (and proceeds thereof);
(13)    Liens securing Debt or other obligations otherwise permitted to be Incurred under this Indenture, including pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.10 that limit the right of the debtor to dispose of assets subject to such Liens;
(14)    encumbrances or restrictions relating to any Non-Recourse Receivable Subsidiary Debt or any other contractual requirements of a Receivable Subsidiary that is a Restricted Subsidiary in connection with a Qualified Receivables Transaction; provided that such restrictions apply only to such Receivable Subsidiary or the accounts receivable and related assets described in the definition of “Qualified Receivables Transaction” which are subject to such Qualified Receivables Transaction;
(15)    any other agreement governing Debt entered into after the Issue Date in compliance with Section 4.09 that contains encumbrances and restrictions that are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to any Restricted Subsidiary than those in effect on the Issue Date with respect to that Restricted Subsidiary pursuant to any agreements in effect on the Issue Date or that do not materially affect the Company’s ability to make anticipated principal or interest payments on the Notes;
(16)    restrictions on the sale, lease or transfer of property or assets arising or agreed to in the ordinary course of business, not relating to any Debt, and that do not, individually or in the aggregate, detract from the value of property or assets of the Company or any Restricted 


-65-







Subsidiary in any manner material to the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole; and
(17)    encumbrances or restrictions arising under deferred compensation arrangements or any “rabbi trust” formed in connection with any such arrangement.
		
	Section 4.13
	Limitation on Creation of Unrestricted Subsidiaries.


(a)    The Company may designate any Subsidiary of the Company (including any newly-acquired or newly-formed Subsidiary) as an “Unrestricted Subsidiary” under this Indenture (a “Designation”) only if:
(1)    no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing after giving effect to such Designation;
(2)    the Subsidiary to be so designated and its Subsidiaries do not at the time of Designation own any Capital Interests or Debt of, or own or hold any Lien with respect to, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company;
(3)    all the Debt of such Subsidiary and its Subsidiaries shall, at the date of designation, and will at all times thereafter, consist of Non-Recourse Debt;
(4)    such Subsidiary is a Person with respect to which neither the Company nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has any direct or indirect obligation to:
(a)    subscribe for additional Capital Interests of such Subsidiary; or
(b)     maintain or preserve such Subsidiary’s financial condition or to cause such Subsidiary to achieve any specified levels of operating results;
(5)    on the date such Subsidiary is designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary, such Subsidiary is not a party to any agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding with the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary with terms substantially less favorable to the Company than those that might have been obtained from Persons who are not Affiliates of the Company; and
(6)    either (a) the Subsidiary to be so designated has total consolidated assets of $1,000 or less or (b) the Company could at the time of Designation make (i) a Restricted Payment in an amount equal to the greater of the Fair Market Value or book value of such Subsidiary pursuant to Section 4.08 and such amount is thereafter treated as a Restricted Payment for the purpose of calculating the amount available for Restricted Payments thereunder or (ii) a Permitted Investment.
(b)    The Company may revoke any Designation of a Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary (a “Revocation”) only if, immediately after giving effect to such Revocation:
(1)    all the Debt of such Unrestricted Subsidiary could be Incurred pursuant to Section 4.09; 


-66-







(2)    all the Liens on the property and assets of such Unrestricted Subsidiary could be incurred pursuant to Section 4.10; and
(3)    no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing after giving effect to such Revocation.
(c)    Any such Designation or Revocation shall be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the Trustee a certified copy of the resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company giving effect to such Designation or Revocation, as the case may be, and an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Designation or Revocation complied with the foregoing conditions. 
(d)    A Revocation will be deemed to be an Incurrence of Debt by a Restricted Subsidiary of any outstanding Debt of such Unrestricted Subsidiary. If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet the foregoing requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it shall thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of this Indenture, and any Debt of such Subsidiary shall be deemed to be Incurred as of such date.
		
	Section 4.14
	Transactions with Affiliates.


(a)    The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction or series of related transactions, contract, agreement, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Company (each of the foregoing, an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving with respect to each such Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions aggregate consideration in excess of $5.0 million, unless:
(1)    such Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are not materially less favorable, taken as a whole, to the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that could have been obtained in a comparable arm’s-length transaction by the Company or such Subsidiary with a Person that is not an Affiliate; and
(2)    with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $25.0 million, the Company delivers to the Trustee a resolution adopted by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company and by a majority of the members of such Board of Directors having no personal stake in such transaction, if any, approving such Affiliate Transaction together with an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (1) of this Section 4.14(a).
(b)    Section 4.14(a) will not limit, and shall not apply to: 
(1)    Restricted Payments that are permitted by the provisions of this Indenture described under Section 4.08 and Permitted Investments (other than Permitted Investments made pursuant to clause (2) or (17) of the definition thereof);
(2)    the provision of reasonable and customary compensation and other benefits (including vacation, retirement, stock compensation, health, option, severance, deferred compensation, retirement, savings and other benefit plans), indemnities, contribution and insurance to directors, officers and employees of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in the ordinary course of business to the extent permitted by law;


-67-







(3)    transactions between or among the Company and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than a Receivable Subsidiary), including any such transactions with any third Person that is not an Affiliate;
(4)    any agreement or arrangement as in effect on the Issue Date and any amendment or modification thereto so long as such amendment or modification is not more disadvantageous, taken as a whole, in any material respect to the Holders than the agreement or arrangement in existence on the Issue Date;
(5)    any contribution of capital to the Company; 
(6)    any transaction with a joint venture, partnership, limited liability company or other entity (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary) that constitutes an Affiliate solely because the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary owns an equity interest in such joint venture, partnership, limited liability company or other entity; provided that no other Affiliate of the Company, other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, shall have any beneficial interest or otherwise participate in such joint venture, partnership, limited liability company or other entity; 
(7)    transactions with customers, clients, suppliers or purchasers or sellers of goods or services, or lessors or lessees of property, in each case in the ordinary course of business that are, in the aggregate (taking into account all of the costs and benefits associated with such transactions), on terms that are not materially less favorable to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, as determined in good faith by the Company, than those that could be obtained in a comparable arm’s-length transaction with a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Company;
(8)    transactions effected as part of a Qualified Receivables Transaction; 
(9)    any employment, severance or consulting agreement or other compensation agreement, arrangement or plan, or any amendment thereto, entered into by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business;

(11)    any transaction in which the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, deliver to the Trustee a letter from an Independent Financial Advisor stating that such transaction is fair to the Company or its Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view or that such transaction complies with clause (1) of Section 4.14(a); 
(12)    transactions between the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and any Person that constitutes an Affiliate solely because a director thereof is also a director of the Company; provided that such director abstains from voting as a director of the Company on any matter involving such other Person; and
(13)    any transaction on arm’s-length terms with non-Affiliates that become Affiliates as a result of such transaction.

	Section 4.15
	Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control.


(a)    Within 30 days following the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Company will make an Offer to Purchase all of the outstanding Notes at a Purchase Price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes tendered, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the Purchase Date (the “Change of Control Payment”). 
(b)    On the Purchase Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful:
(1)    accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes (in integral multiples of $1,000 or if a PIK Payment has been made, in integral multiples of $1.00) properly tendered pursuant to the Offer to Purchase; provided that if, following repurchase of a portion of a Note, the remaining principal amount of such Note outstanding immediately after such repurchase would be less than $150,000 (or if a PIK Payment has been made, less than $1.00), then the portion of such Note so repurchased shall be reduced so that the remaining principal amount of such Note outstanding immediately after such repurchase is $150,000 (or if a PIK Payment has been made, $1.00);
(2)    deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Purchase Price in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes so accepted; and
(3)    deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee for cancellation the Notes so accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Company in accordance with the terms of this Section 4.15.
(c)    The Paying Agent will promptly mail (or otherwise deliver in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary) to each Holder of Notes so accepted the Purchase Price for such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate upon receipt of an Authentication Order and mail (or otherwise deliver in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary) (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each Holder a new Note (it being understood that, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, no Opinion of Counsel or Officers’ Certificate will be required for the Trustee to authenticate and mail or deliver such new Note) equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that each such new Note will be in a principal amount of $150,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof (or if a PIK Payment has been made, in denominations of $1.00 and any integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof).
(d)    If Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in an Offer to Purchase upon a Change of Control and the Company, or any third party making an Offer to Purchase upon a Change of Control in lieu of the Company, purchases all of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Company shall have the right, upon not less than 15 nor more than 60 days’ prior written notice, given not more than 30 days following the Purchase Date, to redeem all Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption. 
(e)    If a Purchase Date is on or after a Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest to the Purchase Date will be paid on the Purchase Date to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such Record Date.


-69-







(f)    The Company will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other applicable securities laws or regulations in connection with any repurchase of the Notes pursuant to this Section 4.15.  To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Indenture, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will be deemed to have complied with its obligations under this Indenture by virtue of such compliance.
(g)    Other than as specifically provided in this Section 4.15, any purchase pursuant to this Section 4.15 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.02, 3.05 and 3.06.
(h)    The Company will not be required to make an Offer to Purchase upon a Change of Control if (1) a third party makes such Offer to Purchase in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements of this Indenture and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Offer to Purchase or (2) the Company has exercised its right to redeem all of the Notes pursuant to Sections 3.03 and 3.07, unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price.
(i)    An Offer to Purchase may be made in advance of a Change of Control conditional upon such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Offer to Purchase is made. The Purchase Date may, in the Company’s discretion, be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied and the Company, in its discretion, may rescind the Offer to Purchase in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the Purchase Date or by the Purchase Date as so delayed.

(a)    The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale, unless:
(1)    the Company (or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at the time of the Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value (measured as of the date of the definitive agreement with respect to such Asset Sale) of the assets or Capital Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of; 
(2)    at least 75% of the consideration received in the Asset Sale by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of cash or Eligible Cash Equivalents; and
(3)    to the extent that any consideration received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Sale constitutes assets that are of a type or class that constitutes Collateral, such assets are added to the Collateral securing the Notes and the Note Guarantees, as applicable, in the manner and to the extent required by this Indenture or any of the Collateral Documents.
For purposes of clause (2) of this Section 4.16(a) and for no other purpose, each of the following will be deemed to be cash:
(i)    any liabilities, as shown on the most recent consolidated balance sheet of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Note Guarantee) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to a customary assignment and 


-70-







assumption or novation agreement that releases the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from further liability with respect thereto;
(ii)    any securities, notes or other obligations received by the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash within 180 days of their receipt to the extent of the cash received in that conversion; and
(iii)    any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate Fair Market Value, taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (iii) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed (A) $25.0 million prior to a Covenant Reset Event and (B) the greater of (x) $50.0 million and (y) 2.5% of the Consolidated Total Assets of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-cash Consideration after a Covenant Reset Event, in each case, with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value.
(b)    Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Available Cash from an Asset Sale, or, if with respect to clauses (3), (4) and (5) of this Section 4.16(b), within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Available Cash from any Asset Sale the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary entered into a contractual commitment pursuant to a binding agreement with the good faith expectation to apply any such Net Available Cash within 180 days of such commitment (an “Acceptable Commitment”), then, within the later of 365 days after the receipt of such Net Available Cash and 180 days from the date of the Acceptable Commitment, the Company (or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) may apply such Net Available Cash at its option to any combination of the following: 
(1)    to permanently reduce (and permanently reduce commitments with respect thereto): (A) Debt under the Senior Credit Facilities, (B) other First Priority Lien Obligations of the Company or a Guarantor or (C) Debt of a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary, in each case, other than Debt owed to the Company or an Affiliate of the Company;
(2)    to permanently repay or reduce other Pari Passu Lien Obligations, other than Debt owed to the Company or an Affiliate of the Company; provided that if the Company shall so reduce any such Pari Passu Lien Obligations, the Company shall equally and ratably reduce Obligations under the Notes as provided either, at the Company’s option, under Section 3.07, through open-market purchases (to the extent such purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof) or by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 4.16 for an Offer to Purchase) to all Holders of Notes to purchase some or all of their Notes at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the amount of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the amount of Notes that would otherwise be paid;
(3)    if the assets disposed of in the Asset Sale were not Collateral, to permanently repay or reduce other Pari Passu Debt, other than Debt owed to the Company or an Affiliate of the Company;
(4)    to acquire all or substantially all of the assets or a line of business of, or any Capital Interests of, another Person engaged in a Permitted Business, if, after giving effect to 


-71-







any such acquisition of Capital Interests, such Person is or becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company;
(5)    to make capital expenditures (including any capitalized software development costs) in or that are used or useful in a Permitted Business or to make expenditures for maintenance, repair or improvement of existing properties and assets in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture;
(6)    to acquire other assets that are not classified as current assets under GAAP that are used or useful in a Permitted Business; provided that, to the extent that any such assets are of a type or class that constitutes Collateral, such assets are added to the Collateral securing the Notes and the Note Guarantees, as applicable, in the manner and to the extent required by this Indenture or any of the Collateral Documents; or 
(7)    any combination of the foregoing;
provided that pending the final application of any such Net Available Cash in accordance with clause (1), (2), (3), (4), (5), (6) or (7) of this Section 4.16(b), the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may temporarily reduce revolving credit borrowings under any Debt Facility or otherwise invest the Net Available Cash in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture.
(c)    Any Net Available Cash from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in Section 4.16(b) will constitute “Excess Proceeds.”  When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds (x) $25.0 million prior to a Covenant Reset Event or (y) $50.0 million after a Covenant Reset Event, the Company will, within 30 days thereof, make an Offer to Purchase to all Holders of Notes (on a pro rata basis among the Notes), and to all holders of other Pari Passu Lien Obligations (and, in the case of a disposition of assets that are not Collateral, the holders of any Pari Passu Debt) containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Indenture with respect to offers to purchase, the maximum principal amount of Notes and such other Pari Passu Lien Obligations (or other Pari Passu Debt) that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Offer to Purchase will be equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of purchase and will be payable in cash, in accordance with the procedures set forth in the definition of Offer to Purchase or the agreements governing the Pari Passu Lien Obligations (or the other Pari Passu Debt), as applicable, in the case of the Notes in integral multiples of $1,000 (or if a PIK Payment has been made, in integral multiples of $1.00); provided that if, following repurchase of a portion of a Note, the remaining principal amount of such Note outstanding immediately after such repurchase would be less than $150,000 (or if a PIK Payment has been made, less than $1.00), then the portion of such Note so repurchased shall be reduced so that the remaining principal amount of such Note outstanding immediately after such repurchase is $150,000 (or if a PIK Payment has been made, $1.00). The Company shall commence an Offer to Purchase with respect to Excess Proceeds by mailing (or otherwise delivering in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary) the notice required pursuant to the definition of Offer to Purchase to the Holders, with a copy to the Trustee.
If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Offer to Purchase, the Company may use those funds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture and they will no longer constitute Excess Proceeds.  If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other Pari Passu Lien Obligations (or other Pari Passu Debt) tendered in such Offer to Purchase exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Company will select the Notes and such other Pari Passu Lien Obligations (or such other Pari Passu Debt) to be purchased on a pro rata basis (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Company so that only Notes in denominations of $150,000 or any integral multiple of 


-72-







$1,000 in excess thereof will be purchased (or if a PIK Payment has been made, in denominations of $1.00 and any integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof)).  Upon completion of each Offer to Purchase, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero. 
(d)    If the Purchase Date is on or after an applicable Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest to the Purchase Date will be paid on the Purchase Date to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date.
(e)    The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other applicable securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with each repurchase of Notes pursuant to an Offer to Purchase. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Asset Sale provisions of this Indenture, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will be deemed to have complied with its obligations under the Asset Sale provisions of this Indenture by virtue of such compliance.
		
	Section 4.17
	Payment of Additional Amounts


(a)All payments made under or with respect to the Notes or with respect to any Note Guarantee will be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges of whatever nature, including any penalties and interest relating thereto (“Taxes”) imposed or levied by or on behalf of the government of, or any political subdivision of any authority or agency therein or thereof having power to tax of, (i) any jurisdiction in which the Company (including any surviving entity) is then incorporated, organized or resident for tax purposes, (ii) any jurisdiction in which any Guarantor is then incorporated, organized or resident for tax purposes or (iii) any jurisdiction from or through which payment is made by or on behalf of the Company or any Guarantor (including, without limitation, the jurisdiction of any Paying Agent) (each of (i), (ii) and (iii), a “Relevant Tax Jurisdiction”), unless the withholding or deduction of such Taxes is then required by law or by regulation or by government policy having the force of law. If any deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any Taxes imposed or levied by or on behalf of any Relevant Tax Jurisdiction will at any time be required by law or by regulation or by government policy having the force of law to be made from any payments made under or with respect to the Notes or with respect to any Note Guarantee, including, without limitation, payments of principal, redemption price, repurchase price, interest or premium, the Company, the relevant Guarantor or other payor, as applicable, will pay such additional amounts (the “Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary in order that the net amounts received in respect of such payments by each Holder (including Additional Amounts) after such withholding or deduction will equal the respective amounts that would have been received in respect of such payments in the absence of such withholding or deduction; provided, however, that no Additional Amounts will be payable with respect to:
(1)    any Taxes that would not have been imposed but for the Holder of a Note or the beneficial owner of a Note being a citizen or resident or national of, incorporated in or carrying on a business or maintaining a permanent establishment or physical presence in, the applicable Relevant Tax Jurisdiction in which such Taxes are imposed or having any other present or former connection with the applicable Relevant Tax Jurisdiction other than the mere acquisition, holding, enforcement or receipt of payment in respect of such Note or any Note Guarantee;
(2)    any Taxes that are imposed or withheld as a result of the failure of the Holder of a Note or beneficial owner of a Note to comply with any timely reasonable written 


-73-







request, made to that Holder or beneficial owner, by the Company or any of the Guarantors to provide timely and accurate information concerning the nationality, residence or identity of such Holder or beneficial owner or to make any valid and timely declaration or similar claim or satisfy any certification, information or other reporting requirement, which is required or imposed by a statute, treaty, regulation or administrative practice of the applicable Relevant Tax Jurisdiction as a precondition to any exemption from or reduction in all or part of such Taxes to which such Holder or beneficial owner is entitled; 
(3)    any Note presented for payment (where Notes are in the form of definitive registered Notes and presentation is required) more than 30 days after the relevant payment is first made available for payment to the Holder (except to the extent that the Holder would have been entitled to Additional Amounts had the Note been presented on the last day of such 30-day period);
(4)    any payment under or with respect to a Note made to any Holder who is a fiduciary or partnership or any person other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment, to the extent that a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary, a member of such a partnership or the beneficial owner of such payment would not have been entitled to the Additional Amounts had such beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner been the actual Holder of such Note;
(5)    any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, excise, transfer, personal property or similar Taxes;
(6)    any Taxes payable other than by deduction or withholding from payments under, or with respect to, the Notes or with respect to any Note Guarantee;
(7)    any withholding or deduction required pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code as of the Issue Date (or any amended or successor version that is substantially comparable and not materially more onerous to comply with) or any regulations or agreements thereunder, official interpretations thereof, or any law, regulation or government policy having the force of law implementing an intergovernmental approach thereto; and
(8)    any combination of items (1) through (7) above.
(b)In addition, a Guarantor that is a Swiss tax resident entity shall not be required to pay any Additional Amounts with respect to any Swiss Taxes withheld by such Guarantor under the Swiss Federal Act on Withholding Tax as of October 13, 1965; provided that this restriction shall not in any way limit the obligations of any non-Swiss persons otherwise obligated to pay Additional Amounts to pay the Additional Amounts in respect of the deduction of Swiss withholding Taxes; provided, further, that in the event that a Swiss tax resident Guarantor that would otherwise be required to pay Additional Amounts with respect to Swiss Taxes is relieved from such obligation pursuant to this sentence, the other Guarantors, jointly and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally Guarantee, on a senior unsecured basis, the payment of such Additional Amounts in respect of such Swiss Taxes. 
(c)In addition to the foregoing, the Company and the Guarantors will also pay and indemnify the Trustee and any Holder for any present or future stamp, issue, registration, excise, court or documentary taxes, or any other similar Taxes which are levied by any Relevant Tax Jurisdiction on the execution, delivery, registration or enforcement of any of the Notes, this Indenture, any Note Guarantee, or any other document or instrument referred to herein or therein. 


-74-







(d)If the Company or any Guarantor, as the case may be, is or becomes obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to any payment under or with respect to the Notes or any Note Guarantee, the Company or the relevant Guarantor, as the case may be, will deliver to the Trustee on a date that is at least 30 days prior to the date of that payment (unless the obligation to pay Additional Amounts arises after the 30th day prior to that payment date, in which case the Company or the relevant Guarantor shall notify the Trustee promptly thereafter) an Officers’ Certificate stating the fact that Additional Amounts will be payable and the amount estimated to be so payable. The Officers’ Certificate shall also set forth any other information reasonably necessary to enable the Paying Agent to pay Additional Amounts to Holders on the relevant payment date. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely solely on such Officers’ Certificate as conclusive proof that such payments are necessary and for the amount of such payments, and in the absence of such Officers’ Certificate, the Trustee may assume that no Additional Amounts are due. The Company or the relevant Guarantor will provide the Trustee with documentation evidencing the payment of Additional Amounts and the Trustee will make such documentation available to the Holders and beneficial owners of the Notes. 
(e)The applicable withholding agent will make all required withholdings and deductions and will remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing authority in accordance with applicable law. Upon request, the Company or the relevant Guarantor will provide to the Trustee an official receipt or, if official receipts are not obtainable, other documentation evidencing the payment of any Taxes so deducted or withheld. The Company or the relevant Guarantor (as the case may be) will attach to each receipt or other documentation a certificate stating the amount of such Taxes paid per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes then outstanding. Upon request, copies of those receipts or other documentation, as the case may be, will be made available by the Trustee to the Holders and beneficial owners of the Notes. 
(f)Whenever in this Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of amounts based upon the principal amount of the Notes or of principal, interest or of any other amount payable under, or with respect to, any of the Notes or Note Guarantee (as the case may be), such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof. 
(g)The obligations under this Section 4.17 will survive termination, defeasance or discharge of this Indenture and any transfer by a Holder or beneficial owner of its Notes and will apply mutatis mutandis to any jurisdiction in which any successor person to the Company or any Guarantor is incorporated, organized or resident for tax purposes or any jurisdiction from or through which such person makes any payment on the Notes (or any Note Guarantee) and any political subdivision thereof or therein.

(a)    Subject to Section 6.02(d) and Section 6.02(e), if an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in clause (9) of Section 6.01 with respect to the Company) occurs and is continuing, then and in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes may declare the principal of the Notes and any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes to be due and payable immediately by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders); provided, however, that after such acceleration, but before a judgment or decree based on acceleration, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes may rescind and annul such acceleration (except with respect to the non-payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest, if any, on the Notes, other than the non-payment of such amounts that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration) if (1) the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decrees and (2) all existing Events of Default, other than the non-payment 


-80-







of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest, if any, on the Notes that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived, as provided in this Indenture.
(b)    In the event of a declaration of acceleration of the Notes solely because an Event of Default described in clause (7) of Section 6.01 has occurred and is continuing, the declaration of acceleration of the Notes shall be automatically rescinded and annulled if the event of default or payment default triggering such Event of Default pursuant to clause (7) of Section 6.01 shall be remedied or cured by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company or waived by the holders of the relevant Debt within 20 Business Days after the declaration of acceleration with respect thereto and if the rescission and annulment of the acceleration of the Notes would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Trustee for the payment of amounts due on the Notes.
(c)    Subject to Section 6.02(d) and Section 6.02(e), if an Event of Default described in clause (9) of Section 6.01 occurs with respect to the Company, the principal of and any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes then outstanding shall become due and payable without further action or notice on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. 
(d)    If the Notes are accelerated or otherwise become due prior to May 1, 2021, in each case, as a result of an Event of Default (including, but not limited to, the occurrence of an Event of Default described in clause (9) of Section 6.01 (including the acceleration of the Notes by operation of law)), the amount that shall then be due and payable shall be equal to (1) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding plus (2) the Applicable Premium in effect on the date of such acceleration plus (3) accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the date of such acceleration, in each case as if such acceleration were an optional redemption of the Notes so accelerated. 
(e)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that if the Notes are accelerated or otherwise become due prior to May 1, 2021, in each case, as a result of an Event of Default (including, but not limited to, the occurrence of an Event of Default described in clause (9) of Section 6.01 (including the acceleration of the Notes by operation of law)), the Applicable Premium with respect to an optional redemption of the Notes shall also be due and payable as though the Notes had been optionally redeemed on the date of such acceleration and shall constitute part of the Obligations with respect to the Notes in view of the impracticability and difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of each holder’s lost profits as a result thereof.  Any Applicable Premium payable pursuant to this Section 6.02 shall be presumed to be liquidated damages sustained by each Holder as the result of the early redemption or the acceleration of the Notes and the Company agrees that it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing. The Applicable Premium shall also be payable in the event the Notes or this Indenture are satisfied, released or discharged through foreclosure, whether by judicial proceeding, deed in lieu of foreclosure or by any other means. THE COMPANY EXPRESSLY WAIVES (TO THE FULLEST EXTENT IT MAY LAWFULLY DO SO) THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE APPLICABLE PREMIUM IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACCELERATION. The Company expressly agrees (to the fullest extent it may lawfully do so) that: (A) the Applicable Premium is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business entities ably represented by counsel; (B) the Applicable Premium shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time acceleration occurs; (C) there has been a course of conduct between the Holders and the Company giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Applicable Premium; and (D) the Company shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph (e). The Company expressly acknowledges that its agreement to pay the Applicable Premium to the Holders as herein described is a material inducement to the Holders to purchase the Notes.


-81-







(f)    The Trustee may withhold from Holders notice of any Default (except Default in payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest) if the Trustee determines that withholding notice is in the interests of the Holders to do so.
		
	Section 6.03
	Other Remedies.


If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue or may direct the Collateral Agent to pursue, subject to the Intercreditor Agreements, any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, premium and Additional Amounts, if any, and interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture.
The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding.  A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default.  All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.
		
	Section 6.04
	Waiver of Past Defaults.


The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes) may, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, waive any past Default under this Indenture and rescind its consequences if such a waiver and rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdictions, except a default:
(1)    in any payment in respect of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Notes (including any Note which is required to have been purchased pursuant to an Offer to Purchase which has been made by the Company); or
(2)    in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under this Indenture cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each outstanding Note affected.
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.
		
	Section 6.05
	Control by Majority.


The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for 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, and the Trustee and the Collateral Agent may take any action deemed proper by the Trustee and the Collateral Agent that is not inconsistent with such direction.  However, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law, this Indenture, the Notes, any Note Guarantee, the Intercreditor Agreements or the Collateral Documents, or that is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder, or that would involve the Trustee or the Collateral Agent in personal liability.


-82-







		
	Section 6.06
	Limitation on Suits.

(2)    the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes have requested in writing to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;
(3)    such Holders have offered the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense;
(4)    the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and
(5)    the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction that is inconsistent with such written request within such 60-day period.
A Holder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder.
		
	Section 6.07
	Rights of Holders to Receive Payment.


Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal, premium and Additional Amounts, if any, and interest on its Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for in such Note (including in connection with an Offer to Purchase), or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.
		
	Section 6.08
	Collection Suit by Trustee.


If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(1) or (2) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company and any other obligor on the Notes for the whole amount of principal, premium and Additional Amounts, if any, and interest remaining unpaid on the Notes, together with interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and its agents and counsel.
		
	Section 6.09
	Restoration of Rights and Remedies.


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

	Section 6.10
	Rights and Remedies Cumulative.


Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes in Section 2.07, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy are, to the extent permitted by law, cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise.  The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.
		
	Section 6.11
	Delay or Omission Not Waiver.


No delay or omission of the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein.  Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or by the Holders, as the case may be.
		
	Section 6.12
	Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.


The Trustee may file proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent and their respective agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company (or any other obligor upon the Notes, including the Guarantors), its creditors or its property and is entitled and empowered to participate as a member in any official committee of creditors appointed in such matter and to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims.

To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent and their respective agents and counsel, and any other amounts due to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent under Section 7.06 out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise.  Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee or the Collateral Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee or the Collateral Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

	Section 8.03
	Covenant Defeasance.


(a)    Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Company and the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, be released from their obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.03, 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.14, 4.15, 4.16 and 4.17 and clause (3) of Section 5.01(a) with respect to the outstanding Notes, and the Guarantors shall be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all Note Guarantees, on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied (“Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes).

In addition, upon the 


-91-







Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.01(3) (that resulted solely from the failure by the Company to comply with clause (3) of Section 5.01(a)), 6.01(4), 6.01(5), 6.01(6) (only with respect to covenants that are released as a result of such Covenant Defeasance), 6.01(7), 6.01(8), 6.01(9) (solely with respect to Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary) or 6.01(10), in each case, shall not constitute an Event of Default.
(b)    If the Company exercises the Covenant Defeasance option, the Liens on the Collateral will be released and the Note Guarantees in effect at such time will automatically be released.

(5)    such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or material instrument (other than this Indenture and the agreements governing any other Debt being defeased, discharge or replaced) to which the Company or any of the Guarantors is a party or by which the Company or any of the Guarantors is bound;

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


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

-93-







opinion delivered under Section 8.04(a)), 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.


Subject to any applicable abandoned property law, any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal, premium and Additional Amounts, if any, or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for one year after such principal, premium and Additional Amounts, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on its request or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter 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, shall 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 or The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining shall be repaid to the Company.
		
	Section 8.07
	Reinstatement.


If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any U.S. dollars or government obligations in accordance with Section 8.02 or Section 8.03, 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, the Notes and the Note Guarantees shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or Section 8.03 until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or Section 8.03, as the case may be; provided that, if the Company makes any payment of principal, premium and Additional Amounts, if any, or interest on any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

(d)    For the avoidance of doubt, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for making any determination as to whether or not the consent of Holders is required in connection with any amendment, supplement or waiver of any provision of this Indenture, the Notes, the Note Guarantees, the Collateral Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements.
		
	Section 9.02
	With Consent of Holders.


(a)    Except as provided in Section 9.01 and this Section 9.02, the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent may, with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes), enter into any amendment or supplement to this Indenture, the Notes, the Note Guarantees, the Intercreditor Agreements and the Collateral Documents for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture, the Notes, the Note Guarantees, the Intercreditor Agreements or the Collateral Documents or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Notes under this Indenture, the Notes, the Note Guarantees, the Intercreditor Agreements or the Collateral Documents, including the definitions therein and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07, waive any existing Default or Event of Default.

(c)    It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver. It is sufficient if such consent approves the substance of the proposed amendment, supplement or waiver. 
(d)    After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Company shall give to the Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment, supplement or waiver. However, the failure of the Company to give such notice to all the Holders, or any defect in the notice, will not impair or affect the validity of any such amendment, supplement or waiver.
(e)    Without the consent of each affected Holder, an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder):
(1)    change the Stated Maturity of any Note or of any installment of interest on any Note, or reduce the amount payable in respect of the principal thereof or the rate of interest thereon or any premium payable thereon, or reduce the amount that would be due and payable on acceleration of the maturity thereof, or change the place of payment where, or the coin or currency in which, any Note or any premium or interest thereon is payable, or impair the right 


-97-







to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the Stated Maturity thereof, or change the date on which any Notes may be subject to redemption or reduce the redemption price therefor;

(f)    In addition, without the consent of the Holders of at least 662⁄3% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes), no amendment, supplement or waiver may (1) modify any Collateral Document or the provisions in this Indenture dealing with the Collateral Documents in any manner, taken as a whole, materially adverse to the Holders or otherwise release a material portion of the Collateral other than in accordance with this Indenture, the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements; or (2) modify the Intercreditor Agreements in any manner adverse to the Holders in any material respect other than in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements.
(g)    For the avoidance of doubt, the Trustee shall not be responsible for making any determination as to whether or not the consent of Holders, or what percentage of such Holders, is required in connection with any amendment, supplement or waiver of any provision of this Indenture, the Notes, the Note Guarantees, the Intercreditor Agreements or the Collateral Documents.
(h)    A consent to any amendment, supplement or waiver of this Indenture, the Notes, the Note Guarantees, the Intercreditor Agreements or the Collateral Documents by any Holder given in connection with a tender of such Holder’s Notes will not be rendered invalid by such tender.
		
	Section 9.03
	Revocation and Effect of Consents.


(a)    Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note.  However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a Note 


-98-







may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the waiver, supplement or amendment becomes effective.  An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder.
(b)    The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date pursuant to Section 1.04 for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any amendment, supplement or waiver.
		
	Section 9.04
	Notation on or Exchange of Notes.


(a)    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.
(b)    Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.
		
	Section 9.05
	Trustee and Collateral Agent to Sign Amendments, etc.


In executing any amendment, supplement or waiver, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall receive and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 13.03, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that all conditions precedent are satisfied with respect to the execution and delivery of any such amendment, supplemental indenture or waiver, that such amendment, supplemental indenture or waiver is authorized or permitted by this Indenture, that such amendment, supplemental indenture or waiver is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company and each Guarantor party thereto, enforceable against each of them in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions, and that such amendment, supplemental indenture or waiver complies with the provisions hereof.
		
	Section 9.06
	Payment for Consent.


The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration to or for the benefit of any Holder of Notes for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid to all Holders of the Notes that consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or amendment; provided that if such consents, waivers or amendments are sought in connection with an exchange offer where participation in such exchange offer is limited to Holders who are “qualified institutional buyers,” within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act, or non-U.S. persons, within the meaning of Regulation S under the Securities Act, then such consideration need only be offered to all Holders to whom the exchange offer is made and to be paid to all such Holders that consent, waive or agree to amend in such time frame.

GUARANTEES
		
	Section 10.01
	Guarantee.


(a)    Subject to this Article 10, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, on a senior unsecured basis, to each Holder and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Company hereunder or thereunder, that: (1) the principal, premium and Additional Amounts, if any, and interest on the Notes shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other Obligations of the Company to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or under the Notes shall be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (2) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same shall be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”).  Failing payment by the Company when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately.  Each of the Note Guarantees shall be a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.
(b)    The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof (other than any waiver or consent expressly releasing such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder), the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor.  Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that this Note Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture, or pursuant to Section 10.06.
(c)    Each of the Guarantors also agrees, jointly and severally, to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) Incurred by the Trustee or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section 10.01.
(d)    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 the Company or the Guarantors, any amount paid either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Note Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.
(e)    Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby.  Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (1) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 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 


-100-







as provided in Article 6, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Note Guarantee.  The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Note Guarantees.
(f)    Each Note Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Company for liquidation or reorganization, should the Company become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of the Company’s assets, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Notes are, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee on the Notes or the Note Guarantees, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent transfer” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made.  In the event that any payment or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Notes shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.
(g)    In case any provision of any Note Guarantee shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
(h)    Each payment to be made by a Guarantor in respect of its Note Guarantee shall be made without set-off, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any kind or nature.

(a)    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 conveyance or a fraudulent transfer for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law or abuse of corporate assets or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally, including laws relating to the liability of directors and managers, in each case to the extent applicable to any Note Guarantee or unlawful financial assistance within the meaning of Section 82 of the Irish Companies Act 2014 (as amended).  To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of each Guarantor shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 10, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Note Guarantee or the related security granted as Collateral therefor not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under applicable law or unlawful financial assistance within the meaning of Section 82 of the Irish Companies Act 2014 (as amended).  Each Guarantor that makes a payment under its Note Guarantee will be entitled upon payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations under this Indenture to a contribution from each other Guarantor in an amount equal to such other Guarantor’s pro rata portion of such payment based on the respective net assets of all the Guarantors at the time of such payment, determined in accordance with GAAP.

(b)     Limitation on Note Guarantees by Swiss Guarantors.
(1)    If and to the extent that a payment by a Swiss Guarantor with respect to any Guaranteed Obligations would, at the time such Guaranteed Obligations are due, not be permitted under Swiss law, in particular if and to the extent that such Swiss Guarantor Guarantees Obligations other than Obligations of one of its wholly-owned direct or indirect Subsidiaries, then such Guaranteed Obligations shall from time to time be limited to the amount of the freely distributable equity of such Swiss Guarantor in accordance with Swiss law; provided, that any such limitation under Swiss law shall not reduce such Swiss Guarantor’s Guaranteed Obligations in excess of such limited amount (any amount in excess of such limited amount, the “Excess Amount”), but merely postpone the payment date of any Excess Amount until such time or times as the payment thereof is permitted under Swiss law.  Any and all indemnities and guarantees by the Swiss Guarantor contained in this Indenture shall be construed in a manner consistent with this Section 10.02(b).
(2)    In order to obtain the maximum benefit under its Note Guarantee, each Swiss Guarantor undertakes to promptly implement all such measures and/or to promptly obtain the fulfillment of all prerequisites allowing it to promptly perform its Obligations under this Indenture and make any required payment(s) with respect to any Guaranteed Obligations from time to time, including the following:
(A)    preparation of an up-to-date audited balance sheet of such Swiss Guarantor;
(B)    confirmation of the auditors of such Swiss Guarantor that the relevant amount represents the maximum freely distributable equity;
(C)    approval by a shareholders’ or a quotaholders’ meeting (as applicable) of such Swiss Guarantor of the resulting profit distribution; and
(D)    all such other measures necessary or useful to allow such Swiss Guarantor to make the payments and perform its Obligations under this Indenture with a minimum of limitations.  
(c)    Limitation on Note Guarantees by German Guarantors.
(1)    To the extent that the Note Guarantee created under this Indenture is granted by a Guarantor incorporated in Germany as a limited liability company (Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung, GmbH) (each a “German Guarantor”) and the Note Guarantee of such German Guarantor guarantees amounts which are owed by direct or indirect shareholders of such German Guarantor or Subsidiaries of such shareholders (with the exception of such German Guarantor and Subsidiaries of such German Guarantor), the Note Guarantee of such German Guarantor shall be subject to certain limitations as set out in the following clauses of this Section 10.02(c).  In relation to any other amounts guaranteed, the Note Guarantee of such German Guarantor shall remain unlimited.
(2)    Subject to clauses (4) and (5) below, the Trustee shall not be entitled to enforce the Note Guarantee with respect to a German Guarantor to the extent that such German Guarantor demonstrates that:


-102-







(A)    at the time of its entry into this Indenture:
(i)    entry into the Note Guarantee caused such German Guarantor’s net assets (Nettovermögen within the German law meaning of that term) (the “Net Assets”) calculated as per the day of entry into the Note Guarantee to fall below the amount of its stated share capital (Stammkapital within the German law meaning of that term) (such reduction being a Begründung einer Unterbilanz within the German law meaning of that term); or
(ii)    the entry into the Note Guarantee caused such German Guarantor’s Net Assets to be further reduced (Vertiefung einer Unterbilanz within the German law meaning of that term) (if its Net Assets were at the date of entry into the Note Guarantee already lower than its stated share capital); or
(B)    the enforcement has the effect of: 
(i)    reducing such German Guarantor’s Net Assets (calculated as per the day of the Payment Demand (as defined below)) to an amount less than its stated share capital (Stammkapital within the German law meaning of that term) (such reduction being a Begründung einer Unterbilanz within the German law meaning of that term); or
(ii)    causing such German Guarantor’s Net Assets to be further reduced (Vertiefung einer Unterbilanz within the German law meaning of that term) (if its Net Assets are at the day of the Payment Demand already lower than its stated share capital),
and that in cases of (A) and (B) of this clause (c) such German Guarantor thereby contravenes the obligatory preservation of its stated share capital according to §§ 30, 31 German GmbH-Act (GmbH-Gesetz) (the “GmbH-Act”) (“Limitation on Enforcement” or “Limitation Event”).  For the purpose of determining whether a Limitation Event has occurred, any indemnification claim (Freistellungsanspruch within the German law meaning of that term) or recourse claim (Rückgriffsanspruch within the German law meaning of that term) which such German Guarantor has acquired, or would acquire against a shareholder or another Subsidiary of the Company or any of its affiliates as a result of entry into or the enforcement of the Note Guarantee, shall be taken into account to the extent that such indemnification or recourse claim is fully valuable (vollwertig) within the meaning of sentence 2 of paragraph 1 of § 30 GmbH-Act and in accordance with applicable court rulings of the German Federal Court of Justice (BGH) (“Recourse Claim”).  To the extent that there is such Recourse Claim, no Limitation on Enforcement applies.
(3)    The value of the Net Assets shall be determined in accordance with the relevant provisions of the German Commercial Code (Handesgesetzbuch) (the “HGB”) relating to the preparation of unconsolidated balance sheets (Jahresabschluss within the German law meaning of that term according to § 42 GmbH-Act, §§ 242, 264 HGB) consistently applied from time to time as they are in full force and effect as at the date hereof, save that:
(A)    the amount of any increase of the stated share capital (Stammkapital within the German law meaning of that term) of a German Guarantor effected out of retained earnings (Kapitalerhöhung aus Gesellschaftsmitteln within the German law 


-103-







meaning of that term) registered after the date of this Indenture shall be deducted from the relevant stated share capital; and 
(B)    loans and other liabilities incurred in violation of the provisions of this Indenture or the Notes shall be disregarded.
(4)    The Limitation on Enforcement shall only apply if and to the extent that the managing director(s) (Geschäftsführer within the German law meaning of that term) on behalf of the respective German Guarantor have confirmed in writing to the Trustee within 5 Business Days following the Trustee’s demand under the Note Guarantee (the “Payment Demand”):
(A)    that such German Guarantor did not hold a Recourse Claim in case of clause (2)(A) above, on the date of entering into this Indenture and, in case of clause (2)(B) above, on the date of the Payment Demand;
(B)    the amount of such German Guarantor’s Net Assets on the day of entering into this Indenture and the day of the Payment Demand; and
(C)    that and to what extent the demanded payment would lead to the occurrence of a Limitation Event (the “Management Determination”), provided that until and including the earlier of (i) the date falling ten Business Days after the Payment Demand and (ii) the date of the delivery of the Management Determination to the Trustee, the right to enforce the Note Guarantee (whether in full or in part) shall be suspended.
(5)    If the Trustee (at the direction of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes) disagrees with the Management Determination, the Trustee shall nevertheless be entitled to enforce the Note Guarantee up to such amount which is undisputed between the Trustee and the relevant German Guarantor in accordance with the provisions of clause (4) above.  In relation to the amount which is disputed, the Limitation on Enforcement shall only apply if a firm of auditors of international standing and reputation has determined within 45 calendar days (or such longer period as has been agreed between the relevant German Guarantor and the Trustee) from the date the Trustee has contested the Management Determination (A) whether the relevant Recourse Claim was or was not fully valuable (vollwertig) at the time of entry into this Indenture and the date of the Payment Demand, (B) the amount of the relevant German Guarantor’s Net Assets on the date of entering into this Indenture and date of the Payment Demand and (C) to what extent the demanded payment would lead to the occurrence of a Limitation Event (the “Auditor’s Determination”).  If the Trustee (at the direction of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes) and the relevant German Guarantor do not agree on the appointment of a joint auditor within 5 Business Days from the date the Trustee has disputed the Management Determination, the Trustee (at the direction of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes) shall be entitled to appoint auditors of international standing and reputation in its sole discretion.  The amounts determined in the Auditor’s Determination shall be (except for manifest error) binding for all parties.  The costs of the Auditor’s Determination shall be borne by the Company.  If pursuant to the Auditor’s Determination the amount payable under the Note Guarantee is higher than set out in the Management Determination, the relevant German Guarantor shall pay the difference to the Trustee within 5 Business Days after receipt of the Auditor’s Determination.


-104-







(6)    If, and to the extent that, the Note Guarantee has been enforced without regard to the Limitation on Enforcement because (A) the Management Determination or the Auditor’s Determination was not delivered within the relevant time frame or (B) the amount payable under the Note Guarantee resulting from the Auditor’s Determination is lower than the respective amount resulting from the Management Determination, the Trustee shall upon written demand of the relevant German Guarantor to the Trustee (on behalf of the Trustee and the Holders) repay any amount (in each case limited to the amount received by it respectively under the Note Guarantee granted under this Indenture and not passed on by the Trustee in accordance with this Indenture or the Notes) in the case of (A) above, for which the Trustee would not have been entitled to enforce had the Management Determination or the Auditor’s Confirmation been delivered in time, and in the case of (B) above, which is equal to the difference between the amount paid and the amount payable resulting from the Auditor’s Determination calculated as of the date of entry into this Indenture or the date of the Payment Demand, as the case may be, and in accordance with clause (3) above, provided such demand for repayment is made to the Trustee in case of (A) above within two (2) months from the delivery of the Auditor’s Determination and in case of (B) above within four (4) months from the date the Note Guarantee has been enforced (in each case an Ausschlussfrist within the German law meaning of that term).
(7)    If a German Guarantor intends to demonstrate that the enforcement of the Note Guarantee would lead to the occurrence of a Limitation Event, then such German Guarantor shall realize at market value, or if a market value cannot be determined, at arm’s-length terms to the extent necessary to satisfy the amounts demanded under the Note Guarantee, any and all of its assets that are shown in its balance sheet with a book value (Buchwert) which are significantly lower than their market value and to the extent that such assets are not necessary for the relevant German Guarantor’s business (nicht betriebsnotwendig).
(8)    The Limitation on Enforcement does not affect the right of the Trustee or the Holders to claim again any outstanding amount at a later point in time if and to the extent that clause (2) of this Section 10.02(c) would allow this at that later point.
(9)    The Limitation on Enforcement does not apply in relation to amounts that correspond to funds that constitute proceeds of Notes issued under this Indenture and have been on-lent to, or otherwise been passed on to, the relevant German Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries and, in case of clause (2)(B) above, are still outstanding.  The burden of demonstrating that no amounts have been passed on to a German Guarantor is on that German Guarantor, provided that an up-to-date financial statement of that German Guarantor prepared in accordance with the principles applicable to its unconsolidated balance sheet (Jahresabschluss according to § 42 GmbH-Act, §§ 242, 264 German Commercial Code) and setting out in reasonable detail in its annex (Anhang) any such on-lending or confirming its nonexistence, shall constitute prima facie evidence for this purpose.
(10)    The Limitation on Enforcement does not apply to any amounts payable under the Note Guarantee if and, in case of clause (2)(B) above, as long as a domination and/or profit and loss transfer agreement in accordance with § 291 of the German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz, the “AktG”) is in existence, unless the existence of such domination and/or profit and loss transfer agreement does not have the effect as set out in sentence 2 of paragraph 1 of § 30 GmbH-Act.
(11)    This Section 10.02(c) shall apply mutatis mutandis if the Note Guarantee is granted by a Guarantor incorporated in Germany and organized as a limited partnership 


-105-







(Kommanditgesellschaft, KG) or general partnership (offene Handelsgesellschaft, oHG) with a limited liability company incorporated under German law (Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung, GmbH) as general partner (Komplementär bzw. unbeschränkt haftender Gesellschafter within the German law meaning of that term) (a “Relevant General Partner”) of such Guarantor, in respect of such Relevant General Partner.
(12)    The restrictions under this Section 10.02(c) shall not apply if, at the time of enforcement of the Note Guarantee, as a result of a change in laws or German supreme court jurisprudence (höchstrichterliche Rechtsprechung), the granting or enforcement of the Note Guarantee can no longer result in a personal liability of a German Guarantor’s or, as applicable, a Relevant General Partner’s managing directors with a view to the obligatory preservation of its stated share capital according to §§ 30, 31 GmbH-Act or any substitute provision.
(d)    Limitation on Note Guarantees by Italian Guarantors.
(1)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors acknowledge and agree that all obligations and liabilities howsoever assumed by each Italian Guarantor, under whatever title or form (and including but not limited to as a guarantor or a joint and several obligor) shall be subject to all of the following limitations:
(A)    such obligations and liabilities shall not include any obligations or liabilities the assumption or accrual of which would breach the prohibition of financial assistance as defined in article 2358 of the Italian Civil Code;
(B)    pursuant to article 1938 of the Italian Civil Code, such obligations and liabilities shall not exceed for each Italian Guarantor, an amount equal to Euro 55,000,000.00 (fifty five million/00); and
(C)    in any event such obligations and liabilities shall never be enforced in excess of 20% (twenty percent) of the then outstanding Net Worth of each Italian Guarantor.
(e)    Limitation on Note Guarantees by United Kingdom Guarantors.
The Note Guarantee granted by each Guarantor incorporated in the United Kingdom does not apply to any liability to the extent that it would result in such Note Guarantee constituting unlawful financial assistance within the meaning of sections 678 or 679 of the United Kingdom’s Companies Act 2006.
		
	Section 10.03

(a)    To evidence its Note Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01, each Guarantor hereby agrees that this Indenture shall be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by an Officer or person holding an equivalent title.
(b)    Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Note Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of any notation of such Note Guarantee on the Notes.


-106-

(d)    The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Note Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors.
(e)    If required by Section 4.11, the Company shall cause any newly-created or newly-acquired Restricted Subsidiary to comply with the provisions of Section 4.11 and this Article 10, to the extent applicable.
		
	Section 10.04
	Subrogation.


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

(b)    The Collateral Agent may perform any of its duties or exercise any rights under this Indenture, the Collateral Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements by or through receivers, agents, employees, attorneys-in-fact or through its Related Persons and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties and rights, and, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on its part, 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 willful misconduct of any receiver, agent, employee, attorney-in-fact or Related Person that it selects as long as such selection was made in good faith.
(c)    None of the Collateral Agent or any of its Related Persons shall (i) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Indenture or the transactions contemplated hereby (except to the extent that the foregoing are found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or under or in connection with any Collateral Document or the Intercreditor Agreements or the transactions contemplated thereby (except to the extent that the foregoing are found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from 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 Guarantor, or any Officer or Related Persons thereof, contained in this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements or any Collateral Documents, 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 Collateral Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Indenture, the Collateral Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements, or for any failure of the Company or any Guarantor or any other party to this Indenture, the Collateral 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 monitor, ascertain or inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Indenture, the Collateral Documents or the Intercreditor 


-112-







Agreements or to inspect the properties, books, or records of the Company or any Guarantor or any of their Affiliates.
(d)    In the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on its part, 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, or other written communication or document or conversation (including those by 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 Guarantor), independent accountants and other experts and advisors selected by the Collateral Agent in good faith.  The Collateral Agent shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, or other paper or document.  The Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Indenture, the Collateral Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements unless it shall first receive such advice or direction of the Trustee or 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 protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Indenture, the Collateral Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements in accordance with a written request, direction, instruction or consent of the Trustee or 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 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 directed by the Trustee or the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes in accordance with Article 6 (subject to this Section 11.11 and the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements).
(f)    The Collateral Agent may resign at any time by notice to the Trustee and the Company, such resignation to be effective upon the acceptance of a successor agent of its appointment as Collateral Agent.  If the Collateral Agent resigns under this Indenture, the Company shall appoint a successor notes collateral agent.  If no successor notes collateral agent is appointed by the Company pursuant to the preceding sentence within thirty (30) days after the Collateral Agent’s 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 successor notes collateral agent hereunder, such successor notes 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 notes collateral agent, and the retiring Collateral Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as the Collateral Agent shall be terminated.  After the retiring hereunder, the provisions of this Section 11.11 (and Section 7.06) shall continue to inure to the benefit of the retiring Collateral Agent 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 Indenture.  
(g)    U.S. Bank National Association shall initially act as Collateral Agent and shall be authorized to appoint co-Collateral Agents as necessary in its sole discretion (and shall have no liability 


-113-







for the acts or omissions of, or the supervision of, any such co-Collateral Agent appointed with due care).  Neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its respective officers, directors, employees or agents or other Related Persons shall be liable to the Company or any Guarantor or any Holder 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 exercise of such powers, and neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, attorneys, representatives or agents shall be responsible for any act or failure to act hereunder, except to the extent such act is found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.
(h)    By their acceptance of the Notes hereunder, the Collateral Agent is authorized and directed by the Holders to (i) enter into the Collateral Documents to which it is party, whether executed on or after the Issue Date, (ii) enter into the Intercreditor Agreements, (iii) bind the Holders on the terms as set forth in the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements, (iv) perform and observe its obligations under the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements and (v) release any Collateral in accordance with the terms hereof.
(i)    The Trustee agrees that it shall not be obligated to instruct the Collateral Agent to, unless specifically directed to do so by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes, take or cause to be taken any action to enforce its rights under this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements or the Collateral Documents or against the Company or any Guarantor, including the commencement of any legal or equitable proceedings, to foreclose any Lien on, or otherwise enforce any security interest in, any of the Collateral.
(j)    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 Indenture, except for any such proceeds or payments received by the Trustee from the Collateral Agent pursuant to the 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 applied by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements.
(k)    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 Trustee shall notify the Collateral Agent thereof and promptly shall deliver such Collateral to the Collateral Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Collateral Agent’s instructions.
(l)    No provision of this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements or any Collateral Document shall require the Collateral Agent 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 unless the Collateral Agent shall have received indemnity satisfactory to the Collateral Agent against potential costs and liabilities incurred by the Collateral Agent relating thereto.  


-114-







(m)    The Collateral Agent (i) shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in connection with this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements and the Collateral Documents or any 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 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 Company (and money held in trust by the Collateral Agent need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law) and (iii) may consult with counsel of its selection and the advice or opinion of such counsel as to matters of law shall be full and complete authorization and, in the absence of any gross negligence or willful misconduct on its part, protection from liability in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered by it in good faith and in reliance upon the advice or opinion of such counsel.  The grant of permissive rights or powers to the Collateral Agent under this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements and the Collateral Documents shall not be construed to impose duties to act.
(n)    In no event shall the Collateral Agent be responsible or liable for any special, indirect, punitive, incidental or consequential loss or damage or any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, lost profits) irrespective of whether the Collateral Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.
(o)    The Collateral Agent does not assume any responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or any breach by the Company or any other Guarantor under this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements and the Collateral Documents.  The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible to the Holders or any other Person for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties contained in this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements or any Collateral Documents 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 Collateral Document; the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of the Intercreditor Agreements and any Collateral Documents as to 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; or the validity, enforceability or collectability of any Obligations; the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any obligor.  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 Collateral Documents, or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent contained in this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements and any Collateral Document.  The Collateral Agent shall not be required to initiate or conduct any litigation or collection or other proceeding under this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements and the Collateral Documents except as directed by Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes; provided that in no event shall the Collateral Agent be required to take any action which it determines is not permitted pursuant to this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements or the Collateral Documents or applicable law.
(p)    The parties hereto and the Holders hereby agree and acknowledge that the Collateral Agent and the Trustee shall not 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 unforeseeable), judgments, expenses and costs (including but not limited to, any remediation, corrective action, response, 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, for any environmental condition or contamination pursuant to 


-115-







any environmental law or otherwise as a result of this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements and the Collateral 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 Collateral Documents, the Collateral Agent or the Trustee 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 or the Trustee shall not be construed as or otherwise constitute any participation in the management of such Collateral.
(q)    Upon the receipt by the Collateral Agent of a written request of the Company signed by an Officer (a “Collateral Document Order”), the Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to execute and enter into, and if in form and substance substantially similar with the Collateral Document or satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, execute and enter into, without the further consent of any Holder or the Trustee, any Collateral Document to be executed after the Issue Date.  Such Collateral Document Order shall (i) state that it is being delivered to the Collateral Agent pursuant to, and is a Collateral Document Order referred to in, this Section 11.11(q), and (ii) instruct the Collateral Agent to execute and enter into such Collateral Document.  Any such execution of a Collateral Document shall be at the direction and expense of the Company.  The Holders, by their acceptance of the Notes, hereby authorize and direct the Collateral Agent to execute such Collateral Documents.
(r)    After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements, the Trustee (acting at the direction of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes), subject to Articles 6 and 7, may direct the Collateral Agent in connection with any action required or permitted by this Indenture, the Collateral Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements.
(s)    The Collateral Agent is authorized to receive any funds for the benefit of itself, the Trustee and the Holders distributed under the Collateral Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements and to the extent not prohibited under the terms of any such agreement, 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 Indenture and the Intercreditor Agreements.
(t)    In each case that Collateral Agent may or is required hereunder or under the Intercreditor Agreements or any Collateral Document to take any action (an “Action”), including without limitation to make any determination, to give consents, to exercise rights, powers or remedies, to release or sell Collateral or otherwise to act hereunder or under the Intercreditor Agreements or any Collateral Document, the Collateral Agent may seek direction from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements.  In the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on its part, 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.  Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements, 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 Collateral 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.
(u)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements or the Collateral Document, in no event shall the Collateral Agent be responsible for, or have any duty or obligation with respect to, the recording, filing, registering, perfection, protection or 


-116-







maintenance of the security interests or Liens intended to be created by this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements or the Collateral Documents (including the filing or continuation of any UCC financing or continuation statements or similar documents or instruments), nor shall the Collateral Agent be responsible for, and the Collateral Agent makes no representation regarding, the validity, effectiveness or priority of any of the security interests or Liens intended to be created thereby.  
(v)    Before the Collateral Agent acts or refrains from acting in each case at the request or direction of the Company or the Guarantors, or in connection with this Indenture, any Collateral Document or the Intercreditor Agreements, it may require an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, which shall conform to the provisions of Section 13.03.  In the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on its part, the Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such certificate or opinion.
(w)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein but subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements, the Collateral Agent shall act pursuant to the instructions of the Trustee and the Holders as provided in this Indenture solely with respect to the Collateral Documents and the Collateral.
(x)    The Trustee and Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation to effect or maintain insurance or to renew any policies of insurance or to inquire as to the sufficiency of any policies of insurance carried by the Company or any Guarantor, or to report, or make or file claims or proof of loss for, any loss or damage insured against or that may occur, or to keep itself informed or advised as to the payment of any taxes or assessments, or to require any such payment to be made.
(y)    The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for failing to comply with its obligations under this Indenture or any related document in so far as the performance of such obligations is dependent upon the timely receipt of instructions and/or other information from any other person which are not received or not received by the time required.
(z)    Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof, the Collateral Agent 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 the preservation of rights against any Person with respect to any Collateral or any other rights pertaining thereto.  The Collateral Agent 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 they accord similar property held for the benefit of third parties and shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral, including, without limitation, by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or bailee selected by the Collateral Agent in good faith.
(aa)    The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Collateral Agent, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Collateral Agent in each of its capacities under the Collateral Documents, the Intercreditor Agreements, and any related document, whether or not specifically set forth therein.
		
	Section 11.12
	Dutch Parallel Debts.


(a)    Each of the Company and the Guarantors which agrees to provide security pursuant to a Collateral Document governed by the laws of the Netherlands (a “Dutch Collateral Party”) hereby irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes to pay (each such payment undertaking by a Dutch 


-117-







Collateral Party, a “Parallel Debt”) to the Collateral Agent amounts equal to the amounts due by that Dutch Collateral Party in respect of its Corresponding Obligations as they may exist from time to time.
(b)    The Parallel Debt of each Dutch Collateral Party will be payable in the currency or currencies of the Corresponding Obligations and will become due and payable as and when and to the extent the relevant Corresponding Obligations become due and payable.  Each of the parties to this Agreement hereby acknowledges that:
(1)    each Parallel Debt constitutes an undertaking, obligation and liability to the Collateral Agent which is separate and independent from, and without prejudice to, the Corresponding Obligations of the relevant Dutch Collateral Party; 
(2)    each Parallel Debt represents the Collateral Agent’s own separate and independent claim to receive payment of the Parallel Debt from the relevant Dutch Collateral Party, it being understood, in each case, that pursuant to this paragraph, the amount which may become payable by each Dutch Collateral Party by way of Parallel Debts shall not exceed at any time the total of the amounts which are payable under or in connection with the Corresponding Obligations of that Dutch Collateral Party at such time; and
(3)    notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in (c) below, each agreement or instrument evidencing Parallel Debt, to the extent such instrument or agreement references U.S. Bank National Association as the holder of such Parallel Debt, shall be deemed to reference U.S. Bank National Association not in its individual capacity but as Collateral Agent hereunder.
(c)    An amount paid by the Company or any Guarantor to the Collateral Agent in respect of the Parallel Debt will discharge the liability of the Dutch Collateral Parties under the Corresponding Obligations in an equal amount. For the purpose of this Section 11.12, the Collateral Agent acts in its own name and for itself and not as agent, trustee or representative of any other party.

Members of, or participants in, the Depositary (“Agent Members”) shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the Depositary or by the Trustee as Custodian or under such Global Note, and the Depositary may be treated by the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the absolute owner of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or impair, as between the Depositary and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices of such Depositary governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of a beneficial interest in any Global Note.

A-3







delivery of such legal opinions, certifications and other information as may be requested pursuant thereto.
(b)  Restrictions on Transfer of a Definitive Note for a Beneficial Interest in a Global Note.  A Definitive Note may not be exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Global Note except upon satisfaction of the requirements set forth below.  Upon receipt by the Trustee of a Definitive Note, duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar, together with:
(i) a certification from the transferor in the form provided on the reverse side of the Form of Note in Exhibit A for exchange or registration of transfers and, as applicable, delivery of such legal opinions, certifications and other information as may be requested pursuant thereto; and

the Trustee shall cancel such Definitive Note and cause, or direct the Custodian to cause, in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depositary and the Custodian, the aggregate principal amount of Notes represented by the Global Note to be increased by the aggregate principal amount of the Definitive Note to be exchanged and shall credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the Global Note equal to the principal amount of the Definitive Note so canceled.  If the applicable Global Note is not then outstanding, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate, upon an Authentication Order, a new applicable Global Note in the appropriate principal amount.
(c)  Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes.  
(i)  The transfer and exchange of Global Notes or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with this Indenture (including applicable restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 2.2(d) of this Appendix A, if any) and the procedures of the Depositary therefor.  A transferor of a beneficial interest in a Global Note shall deliver to the Registrar a written order given in accordance with the Depositary’s procedures containing information regarding the participant account of the Depositary to be credited with a beneficial interest in such Global Note, or another Global Note and such account shall be credited in accordance with such order with a beneficial interest in the applicable Global Note and the account of the Person making the transfer shall be debited by an amount equal to the beneficial interest in the Global Note being transferred.  
(ii)  If the proposed transfer is a transfer of a beneficial interest in one Global Note to a beneficial interest in another Global Note, the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of the Global Note to which such interest is being transferred in an amount equal to the principal amount of the interest to be so transferred, and the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and a corresponding decrease in the principal amount of the Global Note from which such interest is being transferred.
(iii)  Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Appendix A (other than the provisions set forth in Section 2.3 of this Appendix A), a Global Note may not be transferred except as a whole and not in part if the transfer is by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the 


A-4







Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary.
(d)  Restrictions on Transfer of Global Notes; Voluntary Exchange of Interests in Transfer Restricted Global Notes for Interests in Unrestricted Global Notes.  
(i) Transfers by an owner of a beneficial interest in a Rule 144A Global Note or an IAI Global Note to a transferee who takes delivery of such interest through another Transfer Restricted Global Note shall be made in accordance with the Applicable Procedures and the Restricted Notes Legend and only upon receipt by the Trustee of a certification from the transferor in the form provided on the reverse side of the Form of Note in Exhibit A for exchange or registration of transfers and, as applicable, delivery of such legal opinions, certifications and other information as may be requested pursuant thereto.

(ii) During the Distribution Compliance Period, beneficial ownership interests in the Regulation S Global Note may only be sold, pledged or transferred through Euroclear or Clearstream in accordance with the Applicable Procedures, the Restricted Notes Legend on such Regulation S Global Note and any applicable securities laws of any state of the U.S.  Prior to the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, transfers by an owner of a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Note to a transferee who takes delivery of such interest through a Rule 144A Global Note or an IAI Global Note shall be made only in accordance with the Applicable Procedures and the Restricted Notes Legend and upon receipt by the Trustee of a written certification from the transferor of the beneficial interest in the form provided on the reverse side of the Form of Note in Exhibit A for exchange or registration of transfers.  Such written certification shall no longer be required after the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period.  Upon the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, beneficial ownership interests in the Regulation S Global Note shall be transferable in accordance with applicable law and the other terms of this Indenture.
(iii)  Upon the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, beneficial interests in the Regulation S Global Note may be exchanged for beneficial interests in an Unrestricted Global Note upon certification in the form provided on the reverse side of the Form of Note in Exhibit A for an exchange from a Regulation S Global Note to an Unrestricted Global Note.  
(iv)  Beneficial interests in a Transfer Restricted Note that is a Rule 144A Global Note or an IAI Global Note may be exchanged for beneficial interests in an Unrestricted Global Note if the Holder certifies in writing to the Registrar that its request for such exchange is in respect of a transfer made in reliance on Rule 144 (such certification to be in the form set forth on the reverse side of the Form of Note in Exhibit A) and/or upon delivery of such legal opinions, certifications and other information as the Company or the Trustee may reasonably request.  
(v)  If no Unrestricted Global Note is outstanding at the time of a transfer contemplated by the preceding clauses (iii) and (iv), the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate, upon an Authentication Order, a new Unrestricted Global Note in the appropriate principal amount.
(e)  Legends.

12.0% Senior Secured Notes due 2025
Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.
1.    INTEREST.  Cimpress plc, a public company with limited liability incorporated in Ireland (a member state of the European Union) (the “Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at 12.0% per annum to, but not including, the date of maturity.  The Company shall pay interest semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year or, if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an “Interest Payment Date”).  Interest on the Notes shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from and including May 1, 2020; provided that the first Interest Payment Date shall be November 15, 2020.  The Company shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at the interest rate on the Notes plus an additional 2.0% per annum to the extent lawful; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at the interest rate on the Notes plus an additional 2.0% per annum to the extent lawful.  Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.
2.    METHOD OF PAYMENT.  The Company shall pay interest on the Notes to the Persons who are registered holders of Notes at the close of business on the May 1 or November 1 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, immediately preceding the related Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such Record Date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest.  Principal, premium and Additional Amounts, if any, and interest on the Notes shall be payable at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest and premium, if any, may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their respective addresses set forth in the Note Register or by wire transfer of immediately available funds to Holders that have provided wire transfer instructions to the Company or the Paying Agent at least five Business Days prior to the applicable payment date; provided that all payments with respect to principal, premium and Additional Amounts, if any, and interest on all Global Notes registered in the name of or held by DTC or its nominee will be made through the Paying Agent by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by DTC.  Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.
For any interest period, the Company may, at its option, elect to pay interest on up to 50.0% of the then outstanding principal amount of the Notes by increasing the principal amount of the outstanding Notes or by issuing PIK Notes in a principal amount equal to such interest (in each case, “PIK Interest”). In the event that the Company so elects to pay PIK Interest for any interest period, then the Company shall deliver a notice to the Trustee on or before each Record Date immediately preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date, which notice shall state the total amount of interest to be paid on such Interest Payment Date and the amount of such interest to be paid as PIK Interest. The Trustee shall promptly deliver a corresponding notice to the Holders. If such notice is not timely delivered to the Trustee, interest shall be paid as cash Interest. Interest for the final interest period ending at Stated Maturity shall be payable entirely in cash interest.
PIK Interest on the Notes will be payable (1) with respect to Notes represented by one or more Global Notes registered in the name of or held by DTC or its nominee, by increasing the principal amount of the outstanding Global Note by an amount equal to the amount of PIK Interest for the applicable interest period (rounded up to the nearest whole dollar) as provided in a written order of the Company to the Trustee and (2) with respect to Notes represented by certificated Notes, by issuing PIK Notes in certificated form in an aggregate principal amount equal to the amount of PIK Interest for the applicable interest period (rounded up to the nearest whole dollar), and the Trustee will, at the written order of the Company, authenticate and deliver such PIK Notes in certificated form for original issuance to the Holders on the relevant Record Date, as shown by the Note Register maintained by the Registrar. Following an increase in the principal amount of the outstanding Global Notes as a result of a PIK Payment, the Notes will bear interest on such increased principal amount from and after the date of such PIK Payment. Any PIK Notes issued in certificated form will be dated as of the applicable Interest Payment Date and will bear interest from and after such date. All Notes issued pursuant to a PIK Payment will mature on May 15, 2025 and will be governed by, and subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of, the Indenture and will have the same rights and benefits of the Notes issued on the Issue Date. Any certificated PIK Notes will be issued with the description “PIK” on the face of such PIK Notes.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the payment of accrued interest in connection with any redemption or repurchase of the Notes pursuant to the Indenture will be made solely in cash. 
If the Company pays a portion of the interest on the Notes as cash interest and a portion of the interest on the Notes as PIK Interest, such cash interest and PIK Interest shall be paid to Holders pro rata in accordance with their interests. 
3.    PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR.  Initially, U.S. Bank National Association, the Trustee under the Indenture, shall act as Paying Agent and Registrar.  The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to the Holders.  The Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.
4.    INDENTURE.  The Company issued the Notes under a Senior Notes Indenture, dated as of May 1, 2020 (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Guarantors named therein, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent.  This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of notes of the Company designated as its 12.0% Senior Secured Notes due 2025.  The Company shall be entitled to issue PIK Notes pursuant to Section 2.01 and in compliance with the Indenture.  The Notes and any PIK Notes issued under the Indenture shall be treated as a single class of securities under the Indenture.  The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture.  The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture for a statement of such terms.  Any term used in this Note that is defined in the Indenture shall have the meaning assigned to it in the Indenture.  To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling.
5.    REDEMPTION AND REPURCHASE.  The Notes are subject to optional redemption, and may be the subject of an Offer to Purchase, as further described in the Indenture.  The Company shall not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.
6.    DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE.  Subject to the issuance of PIK Notes as described herein, the Notes will be issued only in fully registered form without coupons, in minimum denominations of $150,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. PIK Payments will be made in minimum denominations of $1.00 and any integral multiple in excess of $1.00 thereof. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture.  The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents, and Holders shall be required to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture.  The Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption or tendered for repurchase in connection with an Offer to Purchase, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed or repurchased in part.
7.    SECURITY.  The Notes and the Note Guarantees will be secured by the Collateral on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements.  The Trustee and the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, hold the Collateral in trust for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders, in each case pursuant to the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements.  Each Holder, by accepting this Note, consents and agrees to the terms of the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements as the same may be in effect or may be amended from time to time in accordance with their terms and the Indenture and authorizes and directs the Collateral Agent to enter into the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements, and to perform its obligations thereunder in accordance therewith.
8.    PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS.  The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes.
9.    AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER.  The Indenture, the Notes, the Note Guarantees, the Intercreditor Agreements and the Collateral Documents may be amended or supplemented, and provisions in the Indenture, the Notes, the Note Guarantees, the Intercreditor Agreements or the Collateral Documents may be waived, in each case, as provided in the Indenture.
10.    DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES.  The Events of Default relating to the Notes are defined in Section 6.01 of the Indenture.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the rights and obligations of the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders shall be as set forth in the applicable provisions of the Indenture.
11.    AUTHENTICATION.  This Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee.
12.    GOVERNING LAW.  THIS NOTE WILL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
13.    CUSIP AND ISIN NUMBERS.  Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company has caused CUSIP and ISIN numbers to be printed on the Notes, and the Trustee may use CUSIP and ISIN numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders.  No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.
14.    INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENTS.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the liens and security interests securing the Obligations evidenced by this Note, the exercise of any right or remedy with respect thereto, and certain of the rights of the Holder hereof are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreements.  In the event of any conflict between the terms of any Intercreditor Agreement and this Note, the terms of such Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control.

The undersigned represents and warrants to you that:
1.  We are an institutional “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)), purchasing for our own account or for the account of such an institutional “accredited investor” at least $250,000 principal amount of the Notes, and we are acquiring the Notes, for investment purposes and not with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution in violation of the Securities Act.  We have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of our investment in the Notes, and we invest in or purchase securities similar to the Notes in the normal course of our business.  We, and any accounts for which we are acting, are each able to bear the economic risk of our or its investment.
2.  We understand that the Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act and, unless so registered, may not be sold except as permitted in the following sentence.  We agree on our own behalf and on behalf of any investor account for which we are purchasing Notes to offer, sell or otherwise transfer such Notes prior to the date that is six months after the later of the date of original issue and the last date on which the Company or any affiliate of the Company was the owner of such Notes (or any predecessor thereto) (the “Resale Restriction Termination Date”) only in accordance with the Restricted Notes Legend (as such term is defined in the indenture under which the Notes were issued) on the Notes and any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States.  The foregoing restrictions on resale will not apply subsequent to the Resale Restriction Termination Date.  If any resale or other transfer of the Notes is proposed to be made pursuant to clause (e) of the Restricted Notes Legend prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date, the transferor shall deliver a letter from the transferee substantially in the form of this letter to the Company and the Trustee, which shall provide, among other things, that the transferee is an institutional “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act and that it is acquiring such Notes for investment purposes and not for distribution in violation of the Securities Act.  Each purchaser acknowledges that the Company and the Trustee reserve the right prior to the offer, sale or other transfer prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date of the Notes with respect to applicable transfers described in the Restricted Notes Legend to require the delivery of an opinion of counsel, certifications and/or other information satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee.
