 “144A Global Note” means a Global Note substantially in the
form of Exhibit A1 hereto bearing the Global Note Legend and the Private Placement Legend and deposited with or on behalf of, and registered in the name of, the Depositary or its nominee that will be issued in a denomination equal to the outstanding
principal amount of the Notes sold in reliance on Rule 144A. 
  
 “Acquired Debt” means, with respect to any specified Person: 
  
 (1) Indebtedness of any other Person existing at the time such other Person is merged with or into or became a Subsidiary of such
specified Person, whether or not such Indebtedness is incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such other Person merging with or into, or becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of, such specified Person; and 
  
 (2) Indebtedness secured by a Lien encumbering any asset
acquired by such specified Person. 
  
 “Additional
Notes” means additional Notes (other than the Initial Notes) issued under this Indenture in accordance with Sections 2.02 and 4.09 hereof, as part of the same series as the Initial Notes. 
  
 “Acquired Stock” means, with respect to any specified
Person, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock of any other Person existing at the time such other Person is merged with or into or became a Subsidiary of such specified Person, whether or not such Disqualified Stock or preferred stock is incurred in

 “Affiliate” of any specified Person means any other Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or
indirect common control with such specified Person. For purposes of this definition, “control,” as used with respect to any Person, means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the
management or policies of such Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by agreement or otherwise. For purposes of this definition, the terms “controlling,” “controlled by” and “under
common control with” have correlative meanings. No Person (other than the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company) in whom a Receivables Subsidiary makes an Investment in connection with a Qualified Receivables Transaction will be deemed
to be an Affiliate of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries solely by reason of such Investment. 
  
 “Agent” means any Registrar, co-registrar, Paying Agent or additional paying agent.

 (2) the excess of: (a) the present value at such redemption date of (i) the redemption
price of the Note at February 15, 2007, (such redemption price being set forth in the table appearing in Section 3.07 hereof) plus (ii) all required interest payments due on the Note through February 15, 2007, (excluding accrued but unpaid interest
to the redemption date), computed using a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate as of such redemption date plus 75 basis points; over (b) the principal amount of the Note, if greater. 
  
 “Applicable Procedures” means, with respect to any transfer or exchange of or for beneficial interests in
any Global Note, the rules and procedures of the Depositary, Euroclear and Clearstream that apply to such transfer or exchange. 
  
 “Asset Sale” means: 
  
 (1) the sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition of any assets or rights; provided that the sale, lease, conveyance or other
disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole will be governed by the provisions of Section 4.15 hereof and/or the provisions of Section 5.01 hereof and not by the provisions of

thereof, including cash in an amount at least equal to 75% of the book value thereof as determined in accordance with GAAP, it being understood that, for purposes of this clause (7), investments received in exchange for the transfer of accounts
receivable and related assets will be deemed to constitute cash if the Receivables Subsidiary or other payor is required to repay such investments as soon as practicable from available cash collections less amounts required to be established as
reserves pursuant to contractual agreements with entities that are not Affiliates of the Company entered into as part of a Qualified Receivables Transaction; and 
  

 2

 The terms and provisions contained in the Notes will constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture and the Company 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 Company initially appoints the Trustee to act as the Registrar, Paying Agent and Calculation Agent
and to act as Custodian with respect to the Global Notes. 
  
 Section 2.04
Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. 
  
 The Company will
require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium or Liquidated Damages,
if any, or interest on the Notes, and will notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Company
at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company or a Subsidiary) will have no further liability for the money. If the Company or a
Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it will segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Company, the Trustee will
serve as Paying Agent for the Notes. 
  
 Section 2.05 Holder Lists.

  
 The Trustee will preserve in as current a form as is
reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of all Holders and shall otherwise comply with TIA § 312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company will furnish to the Trustee at least seven
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 of Notes and the
Company shall otherwise comply with TIA § 312(a).

 (a) Transfer and Exchange of
Global Notes. A Global Note may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or to another nominee of the Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such
nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. All Global Notes will be exchanged by the Company for Definitive Notes if: 
  
 (1) the Company delivers to the Trustee notice from the Depositary that it is unwilling or unable to continue to act as Depositary or that
it is no longer a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case, a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Company within 120 days after the date of such notice from the Depositary; 
  
 (2) the Company in its sole discretion determines that the

for Definitive Notes prior to (A) the expiration of the Restricted Period and (B) the receipt by the Registrar of any certificates required pursuant to Rule 903(b)(3)(ii)(B) under the Securities Act; or

Global Note or any portion thereof, pursuant to this Section 2.06 or Sections 2.07 or 2.10 hereof, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note. A Global Note may not be exchanged for another Note other than as

 (h) Cancellation and/or Adjustment of Global Notes. At such time as all beneficial interests in a particular Global Note have been exchanged for
Definitive Notes or a particular Global Note has been redeemed, repurchased or canceled in whole and not in part, each such Global Note will be returned to or retained and canceled by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.11 hereof. At any time
prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note or for Definitive Notes, the principal
amount of Notes represented by such Global Note will be reduced accordingly and an endorsement will be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial
interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note, such other Global Note will be increased accordingly and an endorsement will be made on such
Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such increase. 
  
 (i) General Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges.

 (2) No service charge will be made to a Holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note or to a Holder of a
Definitive Note for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company or the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such
transfer taxes or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.10, 3.06, 3.09, 4.10, 4.15 and 9.05 hereof). 
  

 38 








 (3) The Registrar will not be required to register the transfer of or exchange of any
Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. 
  
 (4) All Global Notes and Definitive Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Notes or Definitive Notes will be
the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global Notes or Definitive Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 
  
 (5) Neither the Registrar nor the Company will be required:

  
 (A) to issue, to register the transfer of or
to exchange any Notes during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of any selection of Notes for redemption under Section 3.02 hereof and ending at the close of business on the day of selection; 
  
 (B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note
selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part; or 
  
 (C) to register the transfer of or to exchange a Note between a record date and the next succeeding interest payment date. 
  
 (6) Prior to due presentment for the registration of a
transfer of any Note, the Trustee, any Agent and the Company may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on such Notes and
for all other purposes, and none of the Trustee, any Agent or the Company shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

 Section 2.07 Replacement Notes. 
  
 If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Company and the
Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the Company will issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, will authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are
met. If required by the Trustee or the Company, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any
loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Company may charge for its expenses in replacing a Note. 
  
 Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Company and will be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and
proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder. 
  

 39 








 Section 2.08 Outstanding Notes. 
  
 The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those
delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.09
hereof, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Note; however, Notes held by the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company shall not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of Section
3.07(a) hereof. 
  
 If a Note is replaced pursuant to
Section 2.07 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser. 
  

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

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

  
 Section 2.09 Treasury Notes. 
  
 In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes
have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Company, or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company, will be considered as though not
outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee will be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee knows are so owned will be so disregarded.

  
 Section 2.10 Temporary Notes. 
  
 Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may
prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, will authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes will be substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary
Notes and as may be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Company will prepare and the Trustee will authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes. 
  
 Holders of temporary Notes will be entitled to all of the benefits of this
Indenture. 
  
 Section 2.11 Cancellation. 
  
 The Company at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation.
The Registrar and Paying Agent will forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else will cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange,
payment, replacement or cancellation and will destroy canceled Notes (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act). Upon the Company’s written request, certification of the destruction of all canceled Notes will be delivered
to the Company. The Company may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 
  

 40 








 Section 2.12 Defaulted Interest. 
  
 If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it will pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus,
to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof. The Company will 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. The Company will fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date; provided that no such special record
date may be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Company (or, upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the
Company) will mail or cause to be mailed to Holders a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid.

 The Trustee will 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 will be in amounts of $1,000 or whole multiples of $1,000; except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed or
purchased, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder, even if not a multiple of $1,000, shall be redeemed or purchased. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that 

  

 41 








 
apply to Notes called for redemption or purchase also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase. 
  
 Section 3.03 Notice of Redemption. 
  
 Subject to the provisions of Section 3.09 hereof, at least 30 days but not
more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Company will mail or cause to be mailed, by first class mail, a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be
mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Articles 8 or 10, respectively, hereof.

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

  
 (5) that Notes called for redemption must be

Indenture pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed; and 
  
 (8) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the
Notes. 
  
 At the Company’s request, the Trustee will give
the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at its expense; provided, however, that the Company has delivered to the Trustee, at least 45 days prior to the redemption date (unless a shorter period shall be acceptable to 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 the preceding paragraph. 
  
 Section 3.04 Effect of Notice of Redemption. 
  

Once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the
redemption date at the redemption price. A notice of redemption may not be conditional. 
  

 42 









	Section	3.05 Deposit of Redemption or Purchase Price. 

  
 One Business Day prior to the redemption or purchase date, the Company will deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the
redemption or purchase price of and accrued interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, on all Notes to be redeemed or purchased on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent will promptly return to the Company any money deposited with the Trustee or
the Paying Agent by the Company in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption or purchase price of, and accrued interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, on, all Notes to be redeemed or purchased. 
  
 If the Company complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on
and after the redemption or purchase date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase. If a Note is redeemed or purchased on or after an interest record date but on or prior to the related
interest payment date, then any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such record date. If any Note called for redemption or purchase is not so paid upon surrender
for redemption or purchase because of the failure of the Company to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption or purchase date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on
any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof. 
  

	Section	3.06 Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part.

 Section 3.09 Offer to Purchase by Application of Excess Proceeds. 
  
 In the event that, pursuant to Section 4.10 hereof, the Company is required
to commence an offer to all Holders to purchase Notes (an “Asset Sale Offer”), it will follow the procedures specified below. 
  
 The Asset Sale Offer shall be made to all Holders and all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes containing provisions
similar to those set forth in this Indenture with respect to offers to purchase or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets. The Asset Sale Offer will remain open for a period of at least 20 Business Days following its commencement and not more
than 30 Business Days, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Offer Period”). No later than three Business Days after the termination of the Offer Period (the “Purchase Date”),
the Company will apply all Excess Proceeds (the “Offer Amount”) to the purchase of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness (on a pro rata basis, if applicable) or, if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered,
all Notes and other Indebtedness tendered in response to the Asset Sale Offer. Payment for any Notes so purchased will be made in the same manner as interest payments are made.

and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, will be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the
Asset Sale Offer. 
  
 Upon the commencement of an Asset Sale
Offer, the Company will send, by first class mail, a notice to the Trustee and each of the Holders, with a copy to the Trustee. The notice will contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the
Asset Sale Offer. The notice, which will govern the terms of the Asset Sale Offer, will state: 
  
 (1) that the Asset Sale Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3.09 and Section 4.10 hereof and the length of time the Asset Sale
Offer will remain open; 
  

 44 








 (2) the Offer Amount, the purchase price and the Purchase Date; 
  
 (3) that any Note not tendered or accepted for payment will
continue to accrue interest; 
  
 (4) that, unless
the Company defaults in making such payment, any Note accepted for payment pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer will cease to accrue interest after the Purchase Date; 
  
 (5) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer may elect to have Notes
purchased in integral multiples of $1,000 only; 
  
 (6) that Holders electing to have Notes purchased pursuant to any Asset Sale Offer will be required to surrender the Note, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Notes completed, or transfer by
book-entry transfer, to the Company, a Depositary, if appointed by the Company, or a Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice at least three days before the Purchase Date; 
  
 (7) that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if the Company, the Depositary or the Paying
Agent, as the case may be, receives, not later than the expiration of the Offer Period, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note the Holder delivered for purchase and
a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased; 
  
 (8) that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness surrendered by holders thereof exceeds the
Offer Amount, the Company will select the Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the principal amount of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness surrendered (with such
adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Company so that only Notes in denominations of $1,000, or integral multiples thereof, will be purchased); and 
  

(9) that Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion
of the Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer). 
  
 On or before the Purchase Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Offer Amount of Notes or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer, or if
less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered, and will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof were
accepted for payment by the Company in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.09. The Company, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, will promptly (but in any case not later than five days after the Purchase Date) mail or
deliver to each tendering Holder an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Company for purchase, and the Company will promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication
Order, will authenticate and mail or deliver (or cause to be transferred by book entry) such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed
or delivered by the Company to the Holder thereof. The Company will publicly announce the results of the Asset Sale Offer on the Purchase Date. 
  
 Other than as specifically provided in this Section 3.09, any purchase pursuant to this Section 3.09 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections
3.01 through 3.06 hereof.

respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Company fails to maintain any such

 The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or
agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission will in any manner relieve the Company of its

such other office or agency.

 If, at any time after consummation of the Exchange Offer contemplated by the
Registration Rights Agreement, the Company is no longer subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for any reason, the Company will nevertheless continue filing the reports specified in the preceding paragraphs of this
Section 4.03(a) with the SEC within the time periods specified above unless the SEC will not accept such a filing. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the SEC will not accept the Company’s filings for any reason, the Company will post the

analysts and prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act. 
  
 Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not
constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee shall be entitled to rely
exclusively on Officers’ Certificates).

Certificate.

and remains in existence by reason of which payments on account of the principal of or interest, if any, on the Notes is prohibited or if such event has
occurred, a description of the event and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. 
  
 (b) So long as not contrary to the then current recommendations of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, the year-end financial
statements delivered pursuant to Section 4.03 above shall be accompanied by a written statement of the Company’s independent public accountants (who shall be a firm of established national reputation) that in making the examination necessary
for certification of such financial statements, nothing has come to their attention that would lead them to believe that the Company has violated any provisions of Article 4 or Article 5 hereof or, if any such violation has occurred, specifying the
nature and period of existence thereof, it being understood that such accountants shall not be liable directly or indirectly to any Person for any failure to obtain knowledge of any such violation. 
  
 (c) So long as any of the Notes are outstanding, the Company will deliver to
the Trustee, forthwith upon any Officer becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, an Officers’ Certificate specifying such Default or Event of Default and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

 The Company will pay, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to pay, prior

the Notes.

 The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will
not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of
this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any

 (1) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing or would occur as a consequence of such Restricted Payment; 
  
 (2) the Company would, at the time of such Restricted Payment and after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Restricted Payment had been made at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, have been

 (D) to the extent that any Unrestricted Subsidiary of the
Company designated as such after August 13, 2004 is redesignated as a Restricted Subsidiary after August 13, 2004, an amount equal to the portion (proportionate to the Company’s equity interest in such Subsidiary) of the Fair Market Value of
the assets less liabilities of such Unrestricted Subsidiary at the time such Unrestricted Subsidiary is designated a Restricted Subsidiary; plus 
  
 (E) any dividends received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary after August 13, 2004 from an Unrestricted Subsidiary of the
Company, to the extent such dividends were not otherwise included in clause (a) above; 
  
 (b) The provisions of Section 4.07(a) will not prohibit the following, so long as, in the case of clauses (5), (8) or (12), no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would be caused thereby: 
  
 (1) the payment of any dividend or the consummation of any
irrevocable redemption within 60 days after the date of declaration of the dividend or giving of the redemption notice, as the case may be, if at the date of declaration or notice, the dividend or redemption payment would have complied with the
provisions of this Indenture; 
  
 (2) the making

of the Company held by any current or former officer, director, employee or consultant of the Parent, any other direct or indirect parent of the Company, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company pursuant to any management equity,
subscription agreement, stock option agreement, shareholders’ agreement or similar agreement; provided that the aggregate price paid for all such repurchased, redeemed, acquired or retired Equity Interests may not exceed:

not to exceed $250,000; 
  
 (10) the repurchase,
redemption or other acquisition or retirement for value of any Subordinated Indebtedness or Capital Stock pursuant to Sections 4.15 and 4.10 hereof; provided that a Change of Control Offer or Asset Sale Offer, as applicable, has been made and

 (11) dividends, advances, loans or other distributions to enable the Parent or any other direct or indirect
parent of the Company to make any payment of interest or principal on any Qualified Parent Indebtedness; provided that any such dividend, advance, loan or other distribution is used promptly by the Parent or such other Person solely to make
such payments; 
  
 (12) other Restricted Payments
in an aggregate amount not to exceed $15.0 million since August 13, 2004; and 
  
 (13) the declaration and payment of dividends or other distributions to holders of capital stock or other equity interests in the Company with the proceeds received on the Issue Date by the Company from the sale of

 The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than
cash) will be the Fair Market Value on the date of the Restricted Payment of the asset(s) or securities proposed to be transferred or issued by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment. The
Fair Market Value of any assets or securities that are required to be valued by this Section 4.07 will be 

  

 51 








 
determined by the Board of Directors of the Company whose resolution with respect thereto shall be delivered to the Trustee. The Board of Directors’
determination must be based upon an opinion or appraisal issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing if the Fair Market Value exceeds $10.0 million. 
  
 Section 4.08 Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Subsidiaries. 
  
 (a) The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to: 
  
 (1) pay dividends or make any other distributions on its Capital Stock to the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries, or with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits, or pay any indebtedness owed to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; 
  
 (2) make loans or advances to the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries; or 
  
 (3) sell, lease
or transfer any of its properties or assets to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries. 
  
 (b) The restrictions in Section 4.08(a) hereof will not apply to encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of: 
  
 (1) agreements governing Existing Indebtedness and Credit
Facilities as in effect on the date of this Indenture; 
  
 (2) this Indenture and the Notes; 
  
 (3) applicable law, rule, regulation or order; 
  
 (4) any instrument governing Indebtedness or Capital Stock of a Person acquired by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries as in effect at the time of such acquisition (except to the extent such Indebtedness
or Capital Stock was incurred 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 Indebtedness, such Indebtedness was permitted by the terms of this Indenture to be incurred; 
  

(5) customary non-assignment provisions in contracts and licenses entered into in the ordinary course of business; 
  
 (6) purchase money obligations for property acquired in the
ordinary course of business and Capital Lease Obligations that impose restrictions on the property purchased or leased of the nature described in clause (3) of Section 4.08(a) hereof; 
  
 (7) any agreement for the sale or other disposition of a Restricted Subsidiary that restricts distributions
by that Restricted Subsidiary pending the sale or other disposition; 
  
 (8) Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; provided that the restrictions contained in the agreements governing such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness are not materially more 

  

 52 








 
restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in the agreements governing the Indebtedness being refinanced; 
  
 (9) Liens (or Indebtedness secured thereby) permitted to be
incurred under the provisions of Section 4.12 hereof that limit the right of the debtor to dispose of the assets subject to such Liens; 
  
 (10) provisions limiting the disposition or distribution of assets or property in joint venture agreements, asset sale agreements,
sale-leaseback agreements, stock sale agreements and other similar agreements entered into with the approval of the Company’s Board of Directors (or the Board of Directors of Innophos in the case of Innophos and its Restricted Subsidiaries),
which limitation is applicable only to the assets that are the subject of such agreements; 
  
 (11) Indebtedness or other contractual requirements of a Receivables Subsidiary in connection with a Qualified Receivables Transaction;
provided that such restrictions apply only to such Receivables Subsidiary; 
  
 (12) restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by customers under contracts entered into in the ordinary course of
business; 
  
 (13) any Indebtedness, Disqualified
Stock or preferred stock of any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company permitted to be incurred or issued, as applicable, subsequent to the date of this Indenture pursuant to Section 4.09 hereof and, in each case, (a) the provisions relating to such
encumbrance or restriction contained in such Indebtedness are no less favorable to the Company, taken as a whole, than the provisions contained in the Credit Agreement as in effect on the date of this Indenture or (b) any encumbrance or restriction
contained in such Indebtedness does not prohibit (except upon a default or event of default thereunder) the payment of dividends in an amount sufficient to make scheduled payments of cash interest on the Notes when due; 
  
 (14) any encumbrances or restrictions of the type referred
to in clauses (1), (2) and (3) of Section 4.08(a) hereof imposed by any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of the contracts, instruments or obligations referred to in
clauses (1) through (13) above; provided that such amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are, in the good faith judgment of the Company’s Board of Directors
(or the Board of Directors of Innophos in the case of Innophus and its Restricted Subsidiaries), no more restrictive with respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions than those contained in the dividend or other payment restrictions
prior to such amendment, modification, restatement, renewal, increase, supplement, refunding, replacement or refinancing; and 
  
 (15) Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary other than a Domestic Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that the Board of
Directors of the Company determines in good faith at the time such dividend or other payment restrictions are created that they do not materially adversely affect the Company’s ability to fulfill its obligations under the Notes and this
Indenture. 
  
 Section 4.09 Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of
Preferred Stock. 
  
 (a) The Company will not, and will not
permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, 

  

 53 








 
contingently or otherwise, with respect to (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), and the Company will not
issue any Disqualified Stock and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to issue any shares of preferred stock; provided, however, that the Company may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue Disqualified
Stock, and its Restricted Subsidiaries may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue preferred stock, if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Company’s most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial
statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Stock or such preferred stock is issued, as the case may be, would have been at least 1.75 to 1, determined on a pro forma
basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred or the Disqualified Stock or the preferred stock had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such four-quarter
period; provided further that Innophos may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue Disqualified Stock, and its Restricted Subsidiaries may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue preferred stock, if the Fixed
Charge Coverage Ratio for Innophos’ most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Stock
or such preferred stock is issued, as the case may be, would have been at least 2.0 to 1, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred or the
Disqualified Stock or the preferred stock had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such four-quarter period. 
  
 (b) The provisions of Section 4.09(a) hereof will not prohibit the incurrence of any of the following items of Indebtedness (collectively,
“Permitted Debt”): 
  
 (1) the
incurrence by the Company and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of additional Indebtedness and letters of credit under Credit Facilities in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding under this clause (1)(with letters of credit being
deemed to have a principal amount equal to the maximum potential liability of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries thereunder) not to exceed $300.0 million less (a) the aggregate amount of all Net Proceeds of Asset Sales applied by the
Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries since August 13, 2004 to repay any term Indebtedness under a Credit Facility or to repay any revolving credit Indebtedness under a Credit Facility and effect a corresponding commitment reduction
thereunder pursuant to Section 4.10 hereof and (b) less the amount of any Indebtedness of a Receivables Subsidiary outstanding under clause (13) below; 
  

(2) the incurrence by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries of the Existing Indebtedness; 
  
 (3) the incurrence by the Company of Indebtedness
represented by (a) the Notes to be issued on the Issue Date and the Exchange Notes to be issued pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement and (b) the additional notes issued from time to time in payment of accrued interest on the Notes;

  
 (4) the incurrence by the Company or any of
its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness represented by Capital Lease Obligations, mortgage financings or purchase money obligations, in each case, incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or cost of design,
construction, installation or improvement of property (real or personal), plant or equipment used in the business of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (whether through the direct acquisition of such assets or the acquisition of
Equity Interests of any Person owning such assets), in an aggregate principal amount, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred under clause (5) below to renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or discharge any Indebtedness
incurred pursuant to this clause (4), not to exceed the greater of (a) 

  

 54 








 
$15.0 million at any time outstanding or (b) 2.5% of Total Assets (measured at the time of each incurrence of any such Indebtedness and giving pro forma
effect to such incurrence and the use of proceeds thereof); 
  
 (5) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in exchange for, or the net proceeds of which are used to renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or
discharge any Indebtedness (other than intercompany Indebtedness) that was permitted by this Indenture to be incurred under Section 4.09(a) hereof or clauses (2), (3), (4), (5), (10) or (15) of this Section 4.09(b); 
  
 (6) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries of intercompany Indebtedness between or among the Company and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that: 
  
 (a) if the Company is the obligor on such Indebtedness and the payee is not the Company, such Indebtedness must be expressly subordinated
to the prior payment in full in cash of all Obligations then due with respect to the Notes, in the case of the Company; and 
  
 (b) (i) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such Indebtedness being held by a Person other than
the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company and (ii) any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person that is not either the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, 
  
 will be deemed, in each case, to constitute an incurrence of such
Indebtedness by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not permitted by this clause (6); 
  
 (7) the issuance by any of the Company’s Restricted Subsidiaries to the Company or to any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of shares of
preferred stock; provided, however, that: 
  
 (a) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such preferred stock being held by a Person other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company; and 
  
 (b) any sale or other transfer of any such preferred stock
to a Person that is not either the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, 
  
 will be deemed, in each case, to constitute an issuance of such preferred stock by such Restricted Subsidiary that was not permitted by this clause (7); 
  
 (8) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Hedging Obligations (other than
for speculative purposes); 
  
 (9) the guarantee
by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company that was permitted to be incurred by another provision of this Section 4.09; provided that if the Indebtedness being
guaranteed is subordinated to or pari passu with the Notes, then the guarantee shall be subordinated or pari passu, as applicable, to the same extent as the Indebtedness guaranteed; 
  
 (10) Acquired Debt or Acquired Stock not incurred in
connection with, or in contemplation of, a Person merging with or into, or becoming, a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, provided that after giving effect to the incurrence thereof, the Company would be 

  

 55 








 
permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in Section 4.09(a) hereof;

  
 (11) the incurrence by the Company or any of
its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness in respect of workers’ compensation claims, self-insurance obligations, bankers’ acceptances, performance, surety and appeal bonds in the ordinary course of business; 
  
 (12) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries of Indebtedness arising from the honoring by a bank or other financial institution of a check, draft or similar instrument inadvertently drawn against insufficient funds, so long as such Indebtedness is covered within five business
days; 
  
 (13) the incurrence by any Receivables
Subsidiary of Indebtedness pursuant to a Qualified Receivables Transaction; 
  
 (14) the incurrence of Indebtedness arising from agreements of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries providing for indemnification, adjustment of purchase price or similar obligations, in each case,
incurred in connection with the acquisition or disposition of any business, assets or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, other than guarantees of Indebtedness incurred by any Person acquiring all
or any portion of such business, assets or Restricted Subsidiary for the purpose of financing such acquisition; provided that (a) such Indebtedness is not reflected on the balance sheet of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in
accordance with GAAP, other than in the footnotes in the case of a contingent obligation, and (b) with respect to any such disposition, the maximum aggregate liability in respect of all such Indebtedness shall at no time exceed the gross proceeds
actually received by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with such disposition; and 
  
 (15) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of additional Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount (or
accreted value, as applicable) at any time outstanding, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness, incurred under clause (5) above to renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or discharge any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause
(15), not to exceed $20.0 million. 
  
 The Company will not incur,
and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to incur, any Indebtedness (including Permitted Debt) that is contractually subordinate or junior in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary unless such
Indebtedness is also contractually subordinate or junior in right of payment to the Notes on substantially identical terms; provided, however, that no Indebtedness will be deemed to be contractually subordinate or junior in right of
payment to any other Indebtedness of the Company solely by virtue of being unsecured, by virtue of being secured on a first or junior Lien basis or by virtue of the fact that the holders of secured Indebtedness have entered into intercreditor
agreements giving one or more of such holders priority over the other holders in the collateral held by them. 
  
 For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.09, in the event that an item of proposed Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of
the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (15) above, or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.09(a) hereof, the Company will be permitted to classify such item of Indebtedness on the date of its incurrence, or
later reclassify all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness, in any manner that complies with this Section 4.09. Indebtedness under Credit Facilities outstanding on the date on which Notes are first issued and authenticated under this Indenture
will initially be deemed to have been incurred on such date in reliance 

  

 56 








 
on the exception provided by clause (1) of the definition of Permitted Debt. Additionally, all or any portion of any item of Indebtedness may later be
reclassified in a manner that complies with Section 4.09(a) hereof or under any clause of Permitted Debt; provided that the Company could have incurred such Indebtedness on the date of reclassification. The accrual of interest, the accretion
or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, the reclassification of preferred stock as Indebtedness due to a change in accounting principles, and
the payment of dividends on Disqualified Stock in the form of additional shares of the same class of Disqualified Stock will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness or an issuance of Disqualified Stock for purposes of this Section 4.09;
provided, in each such case, that the amount of any such accrual, accretion or payment is included in Fixed Charges of the Company as accrued. For purposes of this Section 4.09, any Qualified Parent Indebtedness incurred in reliance upon the
Company’s ability to incur Permitted Debt will be deemed to be incurred by the Company for purposes of determining whether additional Permitted Debt can be incurred for so long as such Qualified Parent Indebtedness remains outstanding.

  
 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.09, the
maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may incur pursuant to this Section 4.09 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates or currency values. The principal amount of
any Indebtedness supported by a letter of credit issued under a Credit Facility in accordance with clause (1) above shall not be deemed a separate incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this Section 4.09 to the extent of the stated amount of
such letter of credit. 
  
 The amount of any
Indebtedness outstanding as of any date will be: 
  
 (1) the accreted value of the Indebtedness, in the case of any Indebtedness issued with original issue discount; 
  
 (2) the principal amount of the Indebtedness, in the case of any other Indebtedness; and 
  
 (3) in respect of Indebtedness of another Person secured by
a Lien on the assets of the specified Person, the lesser of: 
  
 (A) the Fair Market Value of such assets at the date of determination; and 
  
 (B) the amount of the Indebtedness of the other Person. 
  
 Section 4.10 Asset Sales. 
  
 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 of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of; and 
  
 (2) at least 75% of the consideration received in the Asset Sale by the Company or such Restricted
Subsidiary is in the form of cash. For purposes of this provision, each of the following shall be deemed to be cash: 
  
 (A) any liabilities, as shown on the Company’s most recent consolidated balance sheet, of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary
(other than contingent liabilities and 

  

 57 








 
liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to a valid written assignment
and assumption agreement that releases the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from further liability; 
  
 (B) 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 90 days of the receipt thereof, to the extent of the cash received in that conversion; 
  

(C) any stock or assets of the kind referred to in clauses (2) or (4) of the next paragraph of this Section 4.10; and 
  
 (D) any Designated Noncash Consideration received by the
Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in such Asset Sale having an aggregate Fair Market Value, taken together with all other Designated Noncash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (d) then outstanding, not to exceed the greater
of (i) $15.0 million and (ii) 2.5% of Total Assets at the time of receipt of such Designated Noncash Consideration after giving pro forma effect to such Asset Sale and the receipt of such Designated Noncash Consideration, with the Fair Market Value
of each item of Designated Noncash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value. 
  
 Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, the Company (or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) may
apply such Net Proceeds at its option: 
  
 (1) to
repay Indebtedness of the Company under a Credit Facility or any Indebtedness of Innophos and its Restricted Subsidiaries; 
  
 (2) to acquire all or substantially all of the assets of, or any Capital Stock of, another Permitted Business, if, after giving effect to
any such acquisition of Capital Stock, the Permitted Business is or becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company; 
  
 (3) to make a capital expenditure; 
  
 (4) to acquire other assets that are not classified as current assets under GAAP and that are used or useful in a Permitted Business;
and/or 
  
 (5) any combination of the foregoing.

  
 Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds, the Company may temporarily
reduce revolving credit borrowings or otherwise invest the Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Indenture. 
  
 Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in the second paragraph of this Section 4.10 will constitute
“Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $15.0 million, within five business days thereof, the Company will make an Asset Sale Offer to all Holders of Notes and all holders of other Indebtedness that
is pari passu with the Notes containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Indenture with respect to offers to purchase or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets in accordance with Section 3.09 hereof to purchase the maximum
principal amount of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest and
Liquidated Damages, if any, to the date of purchase, and will 

  

 58 








 
be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not
otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness tendered into such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes and such other
pari passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero. 
  
 The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and
regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with each repurchase of Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the
provisions of Section 3.09 hereof or this Section 4.10, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under Section 3.09 hereof or this Section 4.10 by virtue of
such compliance. 
  
 Section 4.11 Transactions with Affiliates. 

 
 (a) The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding,
loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Company (each an “Affiliate Transaction”), unless: 
  
 (1) the Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that
would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person; and 
  
 (2) the Company delivers to the Trustee: 
  
 (A) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of
$2.0 million, a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company (or the Board of Directors of Innophos in the case of Innophos and its Restricted Subsidiaries) set forth in an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction
complies with this Section 4.11(a) and that such Affiliate Transaction has been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the Company (if any) (or the Board of Directors of Innophos (if any) in the case of
Innophos and its Restricted Subsidiaries); or 
  
 (B) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $10.0 million, an opinion as to the fairness to the Company or such Subsidiary of such Affiliate
Transaction from a financial point of view issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing. 
  
 (b) The following items will not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of Section 4.11(a) hereof:

  
 (1) any employment agreement, employee
benefit plan, officer or director indemnification agreement or any similar arrangement entered into by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business and payments pursuant thereto; 
  

 59 








 (2) transactions between or among the Company and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries or any
Person that will become a Restricted Subsidiary as part of such transaction; 
  
 (3) transactions with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Company) that is an Affiliate of the Company solely because the Company owns, directly or through a Restricted Subsidiary, an Equity
Interest in, or controls, such Person; 
  
 (4)
payment of reasonable directors’ fees to Persons who are not otherwise Affiliates of the Company; 
  
 (5) any issuance of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Company or Innophos to Affiliates of the Company; 

 
 (6) Permitted Investments or Restricted Payments that do
not violate Section 4.07 hereof; 
  
 (7) loans

 (8) payment of fees pursuant to the Management Agreement; 
  
 (9) Permitted Parent Payments; 
  
 (10) transactions between a Receivables Subsidiary and any
Person in which the Receivables Subsidiary has an Investment and between a Receivables Subsidiary and the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary; 
  
 (11) the payments of all fees and expenses related to the transaction described in the Company’s Offering Memorandum, dated February
7, 2005, under the captions “Offering Memorandum Summary—The Transactions” and “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions”; 
  
 (12) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers or purchasers or sellers of goods or services in each case in the ordinary course of
business and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture that are on terms no less favorable than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction with an unrelated party or on terms that are approved by the
Company’s Board of Directors, including a majority of the disinterested directors; 
  
 (13) transactions pursuant to any contract or agreement in effect on August 13, 2004, in each case as amended, modified or replaced from
time to time so long as the amended, modified or new agreements, taken as a whole, are no less favorable to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries than those in effect on August 13, 2004; and 
  
 (14) the declaration and payment of dividends or other
distributions to holders of capital stock or other equity interests in the Company with the proceeds received on the Issue Date by the Company from the sale of the Notes. 
  
 Section 4.12 Liens. 
  
 The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, create, incur, assume or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become
effective any Lien of any kind (other than 

  

 60 








 
Permitted Liens) securing Indebtedness upon any of their property or assets, now owned or hereafter acquired, unless all payments due under this Indenture
and the Notes are secured on an equal and ratable basis with the obligations so secured until such time as such obligations are no longer secured by a Lien. 
  
 Section 4.13 Business Activities. 
  
 The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, engage in any business other than Permitted Businesses, except to such
extent as would not be material to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole.  
  

	Section	4.14 Corporate Existence. 

  
 Subject to Article 5 hereof, the Company shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect: 
  
 (1) its corporate existence, and the corporate, partnership
or other existence of each of its Subsidiaries, in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of the Company or any such Subsidiary; and 
  
 (2) the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and
franchises of the Company and its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the corporate, partnership or other existence of any of its Subsidiaries, if the
Board of Directors shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and that the loss thereof is not adverse in any material respect to the
Holders of the Notes. 
  
 Section 4.15 Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of
Control. 
  
 (a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control,
the Company will make an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder to repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000) of that Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of
the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, on the Notes repurchased to the date of purchase, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest
due on the relevant interest payment date (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within ten days following any Change of Control, the Company will mail a notice to each Holder describing the transaction or transactions that constitute
the Change of Control and stating: 
  
 (1) that
the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.15 and that all Notes tendered will be accepted for payment; 
  
 (2) the purchase price and the purchase date, which shall be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice
is mailed (the “Change of Control Payment Date”); 
  
 (3) that any Note not tendered will continue to accrue interest; 
  
 (4) that, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, all Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the
Change of Control Offer will cease to accrue interest after the Change of Control Payment Date; 
  

 61 








 (5) that Holders electing to have any Notes purchased pursuant to a Change of Control
Offer will be required to surrender the Notes, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Notes completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice
prior to the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date; 
  
 (6) that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if the Paying Agent receives, not later than the close of business on the
second Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of Notes delivered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is
withdrawing his election to have the Notes purchased; and 
  
 (7) that Holders whose Notes are being purchased only in part will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, which unpurchased portion must be equal to $1,000
in principal amount or an integral multiple of $1,000. 
  
 The
Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a
result of a Change of Control. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of Sections 3.09 or 4.15 hereof, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will
not be deemed to have breached its obligations under Section 3.09 hereof or this Section 4.15 by virtue of such compliance. 
  
 (b) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful: 
  
 (1) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control
Offer; 
  
 (2) deposit with the Paying Agent an
amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and 
  
 (3) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the
aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Company. 
  
 The Paying Agent will promptly mail (but in any case not later than five days after the Change of Control Payment Date) to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the
Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any. The Company will publicly announce the results of
the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date. 
  
 (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.15, the Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of
Control if (1) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 4.15 and Section 3.09 hereof and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not
withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer, or (2) notice of redemption has been given pursuant to Section 3.07 hereof, unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price. 
  

 62 








 Section 4.16 Limitations on Guarantees of Indebtedness by Restricted Subsidiaries. 
  
 The Company will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary, directly or
indirectly, to guarantee the payment of any Indebtedness of the Company unless: 
  
 (1) such Restricted Subsidiary simultaneously executes and delivers a supplemental indenture to this Indenture providing for a guarantee
of the payment of the Notes by such Restricted Subsidiary, which guarantee will be senior to or pari passu with such Restricted Subsidiary’s guarantee of or pledge to secure such other Indebtedness; and 
  
 (2) such Restricted Subsidiary shall deliver to the Trustee
an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that 
  
 (A)
such guarantee has been duly executed and authorized; and 
  
 (B) such guarantee constitutes a valid, binding and enforceable obligation of such Restricted Subsidiary, except insofar as enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws (including,
without limitation, all laws relating to fraudulent transfers) and except insofar as enforcement thereof is subject to general principles of equity. 
  
 The guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary of the Notes will automatically and unconditionally be released: 
  
 (A) in connection with any transaction permitted by this
Indenture after which such Restricted Subsidiary ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, if the transaction does not violate clauses (1) and (2) of Section 4.10 hereof; 
  
 (B) upon legal defeasance or satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as provided below in Sections 8.02
and 10.01 hereof; and 
  
 (C) upon the release or
discharge of the guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary of the Indebtedness that resulted in the obligation to guarantee the Notes. 
  
 The form of the Note guarantee is attached hereto as Exhibit E and the form of supplemental indenture providing for the guarantee of the Notes is attached
hereto as Exhibit F. 
  
 Section 4.17 Payments 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 and is 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 agreement. 
  
 Section 4.18 Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries. 
  
 The Board of Directors of the Company may designate any Restricted Subsidiary
to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default. If a Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments owned by the Company and its
Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary designated as Unrestricted will 

  

 63 








 
be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under Section 4.07 hereof
or under one or more clauses of the definition of Permitted Investments, as determined by the Company. That designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the
definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. The Board of Directors of the Company may redesignate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if that redesignation would not cause a Default. 
  
 Any designation of a Subsidiary of the Company as an Unrestricted Subsidiary
will be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the Trustee a certified copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors giving effect to such designation and an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such designation complied with the preceding
conditions and was permitted by Section 4.07 hereof. If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet the preceding requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it will thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of
this Indenture and any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary will be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company as of such date and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under Section 4.09 hereof, the
Company will be in default of such covenant. The Board of Directors of the Company may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company; provided that such designation will be deemed to be an
incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary, and such designation will only be permitted if (1) such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 4.09 hereof,
calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the four-quarter reference period; and (2) no Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation.

if such Person is a limited liability company or partnership, a corporate Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of such Person organized under the laws of the United States, any state of the United States or the District of Columbia becomes a co-issuer
of the Notes in connection therewith; 
  
 (2) the
Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Company) or the Person to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been made assumes all the obligations of the Company under the
Notes, this 

  

 64 








 
Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement pursuant to a supplemental indenture and a supplemental registration rights agreement to the Registration
Rights Agreement, as applicable; 
  
 (3)
immediately after such transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists; and 
  
 (4) the Company or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Company), or to which such sale,
assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been made would, on the date of such transaction after giving pro forma effect thereto and any related financing transactions as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable
four-quarter period:

 Upon any consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer, lease,
conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Company in a transaction that is subject to, and that complies with the provisions of, Section 5.01 hereof, the successor Person formed by such
consolidation or into or with which the Company is merged or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such consolidation,
merger, sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition, the provisions of this Indenture referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the successor Person and not to the Company), and may exercise every right and
power of the Company under this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as the Company herein; provided, however, that the predecessor Company shall not be relieved from the obligation to pay the principal of
and interest on the Notes except in the case of a sale of all of the Company’s assets in a transaction that is subject to, and that complies with the provisions of, Section 5.01 hereof. 
  
 ARTICLE 6. 
 DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES 
  
 Section 6.01 Events of Default. 
  
 Each of the
following is an “Event of Default”: 
  
 (1) default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on, or Liquidated Damages, if any, with respect to, the Notes; 
  

 65 








 (2) default in the payment when due (at maturity, upon redemption or otherwise) of the

 (4) failure by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries for 45 days after notice to the Company by the Trustee or the Holders of
at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding voting as a single class to comply with any of the other agreements in this Indenture; 
  

(5) default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced
any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), whether such Indebtedness or guarantee now exists, or is created
after the date of this Indenture, if that default: 
  
 (A) is caused by a failure to pay principal at final maturity on such Indebtedness prior to the expiration of the grace period provided in such Indebtedness on the date of such default (a “Payment Default”); or 

 
 (B) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness
prior to its express maturity, 
  
 and, in each case, the
principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $15.0 million or more; 

 
 (6) failure by the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to pay final judgments (in excess of amounts that the Company’s insurance carriers have agreed to pay under applicable policies) entered by a court or courts of competent jurisdiction aggregating in excess of $15.0 million, which
judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed for a period of 60 days; 
  
 (7) the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary pursuant to
or within the meaning of Bankruptcy Law: 
  
 (A)
commences a voluntary case, 
  
 (B) consents to
the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case, 
  
 (C) consents to the appointment of a custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property, 
  
 (D) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or 
  
 (E) generally is not paying its debts as they become due; or 
  
 (8) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or
decree under any Bankruptcy Law that: 
  
 (A) is
for relief against the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case;

  

 66 








 (B) appoints a custodian of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a
Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary or for all or substantially all of the property of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that
is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary; or 
  
 (C) orders the liquidation of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of
Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary; 
  
 and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days. 
  
 Section 6.02 Acceleration. 
  
 In the case of an Event of Default specified in clause (7) or (8) of Section 6.01 hereof, with respect to the Company, any Restricted Subsidiary of
the Company that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action
or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. 
  
 The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then
outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of all of the Holders, rescind an acceleration and its consequences, if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default (except
nonpayment of principal, interest or premium or Liquidated Damages, if any, that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or waived. 
  

Section 6.03 Other Remedies. 
  
 If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, premium and Liquidated
Damages, if any, and interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture. 
  
 The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission
by the Trustee or any Holder of a Note in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are cumulative to the
extent permitted by law. 
  
 Section 6.04 Waiver of Past Defaults.

  
 Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences hereunder, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the
payment of the principal of, premium and Liquidated Damages, if any, or interest on, the Notes (including 

  

 67 








 
in connection with an offer to purchase); provided, however, that the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding
Notes may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration. 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. 
  
 Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for
exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on it. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial
to the rights of other Holders of Notes or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability. 
  
 Section 6.06 Limitation on Suits. 
  
 A Holder may pursue a remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes only if: 
  
 (1) such Holder gives to the Trustee written notice that an Event of Default is continuing; 
  
 (2) Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of
the then outstanding Notes make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy; 
  
 (3) such Holder or Holders offer and, if requested, provide to the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee
against any loss, liability or expense; 
  
 (4)
the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and 
  
 (5) during such 60-day period, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes do not give the Trustee a
direction inconsistent with such request. 
  
 A Holder of a Note
may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder of a Note or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder of a Note.

 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal, premium and Liquidated Damages,
if any, and interest on the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the 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.

 68 








 
such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and

 Section 6.09 Trustee May
File Proofs of Claim. 
  
 The Trustee is authorized to file
such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and
counsel) and the Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company (or any other obligor upon the Notes), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money
or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of
such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07
hereof. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding,
shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding
whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding. 
  
 Section 6.10 Priorities.

 Third:
to the Company or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct. 
  
 The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders of Notes pursuant to this Section 6.10.

the Trustee, a suit by a Holder of a Note pursuant to Section 6.07 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes. 
  
 ARTICLE 7. 
 TRUSTEE 
  
 Section 7.01 Duties of Trustee. 
  
 (a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee will
exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs.

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

  
 (1) the duties of the Trustee will be
determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture and the Trustee need perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture
against the Trustee; and 
  
 (2) in the absence
of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this
Indenture. However, the Trustee will examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture. 
  
 (c) The Trustee may not be relieved from liabilities for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except
that: 
  
 (1) this paragraph does not limit the
effect of paragraph (b) of this Section 7.01; 
  
 (2) the Trustee will not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and 
  
 (3) the Trustee will not be liable with respect to any
action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.05 hereof.

(b), and (c) of this Section 7.01. 
  
 (e) No provision of this
Indenture will require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or incur any liability. The Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights and powers under this Indenture at the request of any Holders, unless such Holder has
offered to the Trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense. 
  
 (f) The Trustee will not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Company. Money held in
trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
  

 70 








 Section 7.02 Rights of Trustee. 
  
 (a) The Trustee may conclusively rely upon any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by
the proper Person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document. 
  
 (b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both. The Trustee will not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith
in reliance on such Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. The Trustee may consult with counsel and the written advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel will be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in
respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon. 
  
 (c) The Trustee may act through its attorneys and agents and will not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent appointed with due
care. 
  
 (d) The Trustee will not be liable for any action it
takes or omits to take in good faith that it believes to be authorized or within the rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture. 
  
 (e) Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture, any demand, request, direction or notice from the Company will be sufficient if signed by an
Officer of the Company. 
  
 (f) The Trustee will be under no
obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity or security against the losses, liabilities and
expenses that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction. 
  
 (g) The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes unless either (1) a Responsible Officer shall have actual knowledge of such default or Event of Default
or (2) written notice of such default or Event of Default shall have been given to the Trustee by the Company or by any Holder of the Notes. 
  
 (h) The permissive rights of the Trustee enumerated herein shall not be construed as duties. 
  
 Section 7.03 Individual Rights of Trustee. 
  

The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or any Affiliate
of the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as trustee
(if this Indenture has been qualified under the TIA) or resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11 hereof. 
  
 Section 7.04 Trustee’s Disclaimer. 
  
 The Trustee will not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes, it shall not be
accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Company or upon the Company’s direction under any provision of this Indenture, it will not be responsible for the use or application of any money
received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee, and it will not be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in 

  

 71 








 
the Notes or any other document in connection with the sale of the Notes or pursuant to this Indenture other than its certificate of authentication.

  
 Section 7.05 Notice of Defaults. 
  
 If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if it is known
to the Trustee, the Trustee will mail to Holders of Notes a notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of, premium or Liquidated Damages, if
any, or interest on, any Note, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of the Holders of the Notes. 
  
 Section 7.06 Reports by Trustee to Holders of the Notes. 
  
 (a) Within 60 days after each May 15 beginning with the May 15 following the
date of this Indenture, and for so long as Notes remain outstanding, the Trustee will mail to the Holders of the Notes a brief report dated as of such reporting date that complies with TIA § 313(a) (but if no event described in TIA §
313(a) has occurred within the twelve months preceding the reporting date, no report need be transmitted). The Trustee also will comply with TIA § 313(b)(2). The Trustee will also transmit by mail all reports as required by TIA § 313(c).

  
 (b) A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to the
Holders of Notes will be mailed by the Trustee to the Company and filed by the Trustee with the SEC and each stock exchange on which the Notes are listed in accordance with TIA § 313(d). The Company will promptly notify the Trustee when the
Notes are listed on any stock exchange. 
  
 Section 7.07 Compensation and
Indemnity. 
  
 (a) The Company will pay to the Trustee from
time to time reasonable compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder. The Trustee’s compensation will not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Company will reimburse the Trustee
promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses will include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the
Trustee’s agents and counsel. 
  
 (b) The Company will
indemnify the Trustee against any and all losses, liabilities or expenses incurred by it arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this
Indenture against the Company (including this Section 7.07) and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Company, any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or
duties hereunder, except to the extent any such loss, liability or expense may be attributable to its negligence or bad faith. The Trustee will notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so
notify the Company will not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder. The Company will defend the claim and the Trustee will cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company will pay the reasonable fees and
expenses of such counsel. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. 
  
 (c) The obligations of the Company under this Section 7.07 will survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee and the satisfaction and discharge of
this Indenture. 
  

 72 








 (d) To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section 7.07, the Trustee will have a Lien
prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal and interest on particular Notes. Such Lien will survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
  
 (e) When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of
Default specified in Section 6.01(7) or (8) hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

  
 (f) The Trustee will comply with the provisions of TIA §
313(b)(2) to the extent applicable. 
  
 Section 7.08 Replacement of
Trustee. 
  
 (a) A resignation or removal of the Trustee and
appointment of a successor Trustee will become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.08. 
  
 (b) The Trustee may resign in writing at any time and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so notifying the Company. The Holders of a majority
in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Company in writing. The Company may remove the Trustee if: 
  
 (1) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof; 
  
 (2) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an
order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law; 
  
 (3) a custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or 
  
 (4) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting. 
  
 (c) If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office
of Trustee for any reason, the Company will promptly appoint a successor Trustee. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may appoint a successor
Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. 
  
 (d) If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company, or the Holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes
may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
  
 (e) If the Trustee, after written request by any Holder who has been a Holder for at least six months, fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof, such Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
  
 (f) A successor Trustee will deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee will become effective, and the successor Trustee will
have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee will mail a notice of its succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee will promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor
Trustee; provided all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.07 hereof. 
  

 73 








 Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Company’s obligations under Section
7.07 hereof will continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee. 
  
 Section
7.09 Successor Trustee by Merger, etc. 
  
 If the Trustee
consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation, the successor corporation without any further act will be the successor Trustee. 
  
 Section 7.10 Eligibility; Disqualification. 
  
 There will at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation
organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities
and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50.0 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. 
  
 This Indenture will always have a Trustee who satisfies the requirements of TIA § 310(a)(1), (2) and (5). The Trustee is subject to TIA §
310(b). 
  
 Section 7.11 Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company.

creditor relationship listed in TIA § 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA § 311(a) to the extent indicated therein. 
  
 ARTICLE 8. 
 LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE 
  
 Section 8.01 Option to
Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 
  
 The
Company may at any time, at the option of its Board of Directors evidenced by a resolution set forth in an Officers’ Certificate, elect to have either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof be applied to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the
conditions set forth below in this Article 8. 
  
 Section 8.02 Legal Defeasance
and Discharge. 
  
 Upon the Company’s exercise under
Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the Company will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all
outstanding Notes on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company will be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire
Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes, which will thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (1) and (2) below, and to
have satisfied all their other obligations under such Notes and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which will
survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: 
  
 (1) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, or interest or premium and Liquidated Damages, if any, on, such Notes when such payments are due from the trust
referred to in Section 8.04 hereof; 
  

 74 








 (2) the Company’s obligations with respect to such Notes under Article 2 and Section
4.02 hereof; 
  
 (3) the rights, powers, trusts,
duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the Company’s obligations in connection therewith; and 
  
 (4) this Article 8. 
  
 Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option
under Section 8.03 hereof. 
  

	Section	8.03 Covenant Defeasance. 

  
 Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Company will, subject to the satisfaction of
the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from each of its obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.15, 4.16, 4.17 and 4.18 hereof and clause (4) of Section 5.01 hereof with
respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes will 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 will continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being
understood that such Notes will not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes, the Company may omit to comply with and will have no liability in respect of
any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in
any other document and such omission to comply will not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes will be unaffected thereby. In addition,
upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, Sections 6.01(3) through 6.01(5) hereof will not constitute
Events of Default. 
  

	Section	8.04 Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. 

  
 In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance under either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof: 
  
 (1) the Company must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee,
in trust, for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of
independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, or interest and premium and Liquidated Damages, if any, on the outstanding Notes on the stated date for payment thereof or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the
Company must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to such stated date for payment or to a particular redemption date; 
  

 75 








 (2) in the case of an election under Section 8.02 hereof, the Company must deliver to the
Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that: 
  
 (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling; or 
  
 (B) since the date of this Indenture, there has been a
change in the applicable federal income tax law, 
  
 in either
case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be
subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred; 
  
 (3) in the case of an election under Section 8.03 hereof, the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion
of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to federal
income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred; 
  
 (4) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of
Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit) and the deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other instrument to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is
bound (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit); 
  
 (5) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material
agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound; 
  
 (6) the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the deposit was not
made by the Company with the intent of preferring the Holders of Notes over the other creditors of the Company with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any creditors of the Company or others; and 
  
 (7) the Company must deliver to the Trustee an
Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with. 
  
 Section 8.05 Deposited Money and Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. 
  
 Subject to Section 8.06 hereof, all money and non-callable Government
Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof in respect of the outstanding Notes
will 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 acting as 

  

 76 








 
Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium and
Liquidated Damages, if any, and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
  
 The Company will pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable Government
Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes. 
  
 Notwithstanding anything in this Article 8 to the contrary, the Trustee will
deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon the request of the Company any money or non-callable Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public
accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(1) hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an
equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 
  

	Section	8.06 Repayment to Company. 

  
 Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium or Liquidated
Damages, if any, or interest on, any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium or Liquidated Damages, 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) will be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note will thereafter be permitted to look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all
liability of the Company as trustee thereof, will thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in
the New York Times and The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which will not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any
unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company. 
  

	Section	8.07 Reinstatement. 

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

 77 








 ARTICLE 9. 
 AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER 
  

	Section	9.01 Without Consent of Holders of Notes.

Holder of a Note: 
  
 (1) to cure any ambiguity,
defect or inconsistency; 
  
 (2) to provide for
uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes; 
  
 (3) to provide for the assumption of the Company’s obligations to the Holders of the Notes by a successor to the Company pursuant to Article 5 hereof;

 (5) to comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA; 

 
 (6) to conform the text of this Indenture or the Notes to
any provision of the “Description of Notes” section of the Company’s Offering Memorandum dated February 7, 2005, relating to the initial offering of the Notes, to the extent that such provision in that “Description of Notes”
was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of this Indenture or the Notes; 
  
 (7) to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in accordance with the limitations set forth in this Indenture as of the date hereof;
or 
  
 (8) to add guarantees with respect to the

 Upon the
request of the Company accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02 hereof, the Trustee will
join with the Company in the execution of any amended or supplemental indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of this Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee

 Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture (including, without limitation, Section
3.09, 4.10 and 4.15 hereof) and the Notes with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, Additional Notes, if any) voting as a single class
(including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, any existing Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or
Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium or Liquidated Damages, if any, or interest on, the Notes, except a payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with any provision of this
Indenture or the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then 

  

 78 








 
outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, Additional Notes, if any) voting as a single class (including, without limitation, consents obtained in
connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes). Section 2.08 hereof shall determine which Notes are considered to be “outstanding” for purposes of this Section 9.02. 
  
 Upon the request of the Company accompanied by a resolution of its Board of
Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders of Notes as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of
the documents described in Section 7.02 hereof, the Trustee will join with the Company in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or supplemental indenture directly affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or
immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but will not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental Indenture. 
  
 It is not be necessary for the consent of the Holders of Notes under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any
proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it is sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. 
  
 After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Company will mail to the Holders of Notes affected thereby a
notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein, will not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental indenture or
waiver. Subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes (including any Additional Notes, if any) then outstanding voting as a single class may waive compliance in a particular instance
by the Company with any provision of this Indenture or the Notes. However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder):

  
 (1) reduce the principal amount of Notes
whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver; 
  
 (2) reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note or alter the provisions with respect to the redemption of the Notes (except as provided above with respect to Sections 3.09, 4.10 and 4.15 hereof);

  
 (3) reduce the rate of or change the time for
payment of interest, including default interest, on any Note; 
  
 (4) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, or interest or premium or Liquidated Damages, if any, on the Notes (except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of at least a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration); 
  
 (5) make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the Notes; 
  
 (6) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights
of Holders of Notes to receive payments of principal of, or interest or premium or Liquidated Damages, if any, on, the Notes; 
  
 (7) waive a redemption payment with respect to any Note (other than a payment required by Sections 3.09, 4.10 or 4.15 hereof); 

 

 79 








 (8) release any guarantor from any of its obligations under any guarantee of the Notes or
this Indenture, except in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; or 
  
 (9) make any change in the preceding amendment and waiver provisions. 
  

	Section	9.03 Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. 

  
 Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes will be set forth in a amended or supplemental indenture that complies with the TIA as then
in effect. 
  

	Section	9.04 Revocation and Effect of Consents. 

  
 Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and
every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a Note may
revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and
thereafter binds every Holder. 
  
 Section 9.05 Notation on or Exchange of
Notes. 
  
 The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about
an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Company in exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or
waiver. 
  
 Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a
new Note will not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver. 
  
 Section 9.06 Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc. 
  
 The Trustee will sign any amended or supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee.
The Company may not sign an amended or supplemental indenture until the Board of Directors of the Company approves it. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee will be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof)
will be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 11.04 hereof, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or
permitted by this Indenture. 
  
 ARTICLE 10. 
 SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE 
  
 Section 10.01 Satisfaction and Discharge. 
  
 This Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to all Notes issued hereunder, when: 
  
 (1) either: 
  
 (a) all Notes that have been authenticated, except lost,
stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the Company, have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 
  

 80 








 (b) all Notes that have not been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become
due and payable by reason of the mailing of a notice of redemption or otherwise or will become due and payable within one year and the Company has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for
the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in amounts as will be sufficient, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on
the Notes not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium and Liquidated Damages, if any, and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption; 
  
 (2) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a
Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit) and the deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other instrument to which the Company is a party or by
which the Company is bound; 
  
 (3) the Company
has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by it under this Indenture; and 
  
 (4) the Company has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under this Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment
of the Notes at maturity or on the redemption date, as the case may be. 
  
 In
addition, the Company must deliver an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied. 
  
 Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money
has been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (b) of clause (1) of this Section 10.01, the provisions of Sections 10.02 and 8.06 hereof will survive. In addition, nothing in this Section 10.01 will be deemed to discharge those provisions
of Section 7.07 hereof, that, by their terms, survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
  
 Section 10.02 Application of Trust Money. 
  
 Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06 hereof, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 10.01 hereof shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this
Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium and Liquidated Damages, if
any) and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
  
 If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with Section 10.01 hereof
by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall
be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 10.01 hereof; provided that if the Company has 

  

 81 








 
made any payment of principal of, premium or Liquidated Damages, if any, or interest on, any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the
Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or Government Securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

 Capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated. 
  
 (1) INTEREST. Innophos
Investments Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at a rate per annum, reset quarterly, equal to LIBOR plus 8.00%, as determined by an agent appointed
by the Company to calculate LIBOR for purposes of the Indenture (as defined below) (the “Calculation Agent”), which shall initially be the Trustee. The Company will pay interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, payable pursuant to
Section 5 of the Registration Rights Agreement referred to below, quarterly in arrears on February 15, May 15, August 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”). On and prior to February 15, 2010, interest will be payable through the issuance of additional notes in a principal amount equal to such interest amount. The additional notes will be identical to the
originally issued Notes under the Indenture, except that the interest will begin to accrue from the date they are issued rather than the Issue Date. After February 15, 2010, interest will be payable only in cash. Interest on the Notes will accrue
from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance; provided that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a
record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date; provided further that the first Interest Payment Date shall be May 15, 2005. The
Company will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at a rate that is 1% per annum in excess of the rate then in effect to the
extent lawful; it will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, (without regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time
on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
  
 (2) METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Company will pay interest on the Notes
(except defaulted interest) and Liquidated Damages, if any, to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the February 1, May 1, August 1 and November 1 next preceding the 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. The Notes will be payable as to principal, premium and Liquidated Damages, if
any, and interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose within or without the City and State of New York, or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, may be made by check mailed
to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders; provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of and interest, premium and Liquidated Damages, if any,
on, all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which will have provided wire transfer instructions to the Company or the Paying Agent. 

  

 A1-2 








 
Such payment will be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private
debts. 
  
 (3) PAYING
AGENT, REGISTRAR AND CALCULATION AGENT. Initially, Wachovia Bank, National Association, the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent,
Registrar and Calculation Agent. The Company may change any Paying Agent, Registrar or Calculation Agent without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity. 
  
 (4) INDENTURE. The
Company issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of February 10, 2005 (the “Indenture”) between the Company and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by
reference to the TIA. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and such Act for a statement of such terms. 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. The Notes are unsecured obligations of the Company. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be issued thereunder. 
  
 (5) OPTIONAL
REDEMPTION. 
  
 (a) Except as set forth in
subparagraphs (b) and (c) of this Paragraph 5, the Company will not have the option to redeem the Notes prior to February 15, 2007. On or after February 15, 2007, the Company will have the option to redeem all or a part of the Notes upon not less
than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, on the Notes redeemed, to the applicable redemption
date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on February 15 of the years indicated below, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date: 
  

				
	 Year

	  	Percentage

	 
	 2007
	  	103.000	%
	 2008
	  	101.500	%
	 2009 and thereafter
	  	100.000	%

  
 Unless the Company
defaults in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable redemption date. 
  
 (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph 5, at any time prior to February 15, 2006, the
Company may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under the Indenture at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus a premium equal to the interest rate per annum
on the notes applicable on the date on which the notice of redemption is given, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, to the redemption date with the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings; provided that
at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes originally issued under the Indenture (excluding Notes held by the Company and its Subsidiaries) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption and that such redemption
occurs within 90 days of the date of the closing of such Equity Offering. 
  
 (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph 5, at any time prior to February 15, 2007, the Company may also redeem all or a part of the Notes, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60
days’ prior notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes 

  

 A1-3 








 
redeemed plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, to the Redemption Date, subject to the rights of
Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date. 
  
 (6) MANDATORY REDEMPTION. 
  
 The Company is not required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. 
  
 (7) REPURCHASE AT
THE OPTION OF HOLDER. 
  
 (a) If there is a Change of Control, the Company will be required to make an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each
Holder to repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000) of each Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated
Damages, if any, thereon to the date of purchase, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within 10 days following
any Change of Control, the Company will mail a notice to each Holder setting forth the procedures governing the Change of Control Offer as required by the Indenture. 
  
 (b) If the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company consummates any Asset Sales, within five days
of each date on which the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $15.0 million, the Company will commence an offer to all Holders of Notes and all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes containing provisions
similar to those set forth in the Indenture with respect to offers to purchase or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets (an “Asset Sale Offer”) pursuant to Section 3.09 of the Indenture to purchase the maximum principal amount
of Notes (including any Additional Notes) and such other pari passu Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest
and Liquidated Damages, if any, thereon to the date of purchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture. To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes (including any Additional Notes) and other pari passu Indebtedness
tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Company (or such Restricted Subsidiary) may use such deficiency for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by the Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and
other pari passu Indebtedness tendered into such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis. Holders of
Notes that are the subject of an offer to purchase will receive an Asset Sale Offer from the Company prior to any related purchase date and may elect to have such Notes purchased by completing the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect
Purchase” attached to the Notes. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset to zero. 
  
 (8) NOTICE OF REDEMPTION. Notice of redemption will be mailed at least
30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued
in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction or discharge of the Indenture. Notes in denominations larger than $1,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be
redeemed. 
  

 A1-4 








 (9) DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER,
EXCHANGE. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1 and integral multiples of $1, with any fractional amount of Additional Notes issued as interest on the Notes to be paid in cash. The

 (10) PERSONS
DEEMED OWNERS. The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes. 
  
 (11) AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER. Subject to
certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes including Additional Notes, if any, voting as a single
class, and any existing Default or Event or Default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes including
Additional Notes, if any, voting as a single class. Without the consent of any Holder of a Note, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, to provide for uncertificated Notes in
addition to or in place of certificated Notes, to provide for the assumption of the Company’s obligations to Holders of the Notes in case of a merger or consolidation, to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to
the Holders of the Notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under the Indenture of any such Holder, to comply with the requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA, to
conform the text of the Indenture or the Notes to any provision of the “Description of Notes” section of the Company’s Offering Memorandum dated February 7, 2005, relating to the initial offering of the Notes, to the extent that such
provision in that “Description of Notes” was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of the Indenture or the Notes; to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in accordance with the limitations set forth in the Indenture
or to add guarantees with respect to the Notes as required or permitted by the Indenture. 
  
 (12) DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. Events of Default include: (i) default for
30 days in the payment when due of interest on, or Liquidated Damages, if any, with respect to the Notes; (ii) default in the payment when due (at maturity, upon redemption or otherwise) of the principal of, or premium, if any, on, the Notes, (iii)
failure by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to comply with Section 5.01 of the Indenture; (iv) failure by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries for 45 days after notice to the Company by the Trustee or the Holders of at
least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes including Additional Notes, if any, then outstanding voting as a single class to comply with any of the other agreements in the Indenture or the Notes; (v) default under certain other agreements
relating to Indebtedness of the Company which default results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity; (vi) certain final judgments for the payment of money that remain undischarged for a period of 60 days; and (vii)
certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary. If
any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in 

  

 A1-5 








 
aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the
case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as
provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the
Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest or premium or Liquidated Damages, if any,) if it determines that withholding notice is in their
interest. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, rescind an acceleration or waive any existing Default or Event of Default and
its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or premium or Liquidated Damages, if any, on, or the principal of, the Notes. The Company is required to deliver to the Trustee annually
a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the Company is required, upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of Default. 
  
 (13) TRUSTEE DEALINGS
WITH COMPANY. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Company or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the
Company or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee. 
  
 (14) NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. A director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Company, as such, will not have
any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability.
The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes. 
  
 (15) AUTHENTICATION. This Note will not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of
the Trustee or an authenticating agent. 
  
 (16) ABBREVIATIONS. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of

rights given by the Company to the purchasers of any Additional Notes (collectively, the “Registration Rights Agreement”). 
  
 (18) CUSIP NUMBERS. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform
Security Identification Procedures, the Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes, and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a 

  

 A1-6 








 
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. 
  
 (19) GOVERNING LAW. THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WILL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THE
INDENTURE AND THIS NOTE WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW TO THE EXTENT THAT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY.

 Capitalized terms used herein have the meanings
assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated. 
  
 (1) INTEREST. Innophos Investments Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
“Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at a rate per annum, reset quarterly, equal to LIBOR plus 8.00%, as determined by an agent appointed by the Company to calculate LIBOR for purposes of the
Indenture (as defined below) (the “Calculation Agent”), which shall initially be the Trustee. The Company will pay interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, payable pursuant to Section 5 of the Registration Rights Agreement referred
to below, quarterly in arrears on February 15, May 15, August 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”). On and prior to
February 15, 2010, interest will be payable through the issuance of additional notes in a principal amount equal to such interest amount. The additional notes will be identical to the originally issued Notes under the Indenture, except that the
interest will begin to accrue from the date they are issued rather than the Issue Date. After February 15, 2010, interest will be payable only in cash. Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or,
if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance; provided that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding
Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date; provided further that the first Interest Payment Date shall be May 15, 2005. The Company will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any
proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at a rate that is 1% per annum in excess of the rate then in effect to the extent lawful; it will pay interest (including post-petition
interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, (without regard to any 

  

 A2-3 








 
applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of
twelve 30-day months. 
  
 Until this Regulation S Temporary Global
Note is exchanged for one or more Regulation S Permanent Global Notes, the Holder hereof shall not be entitled to receive payments of interest hereon; until so exchanged in full, this Regulation S Temporary Global Note shall in all other respects be
entitled to the same benefits as other Notes under the Indenture. 
  
 (2) METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Company will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) and Liquidated Damages, if any, to the Persons who are
registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the February 1, May 1, August 1 and November 1 next preceding the 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. The Notes will be payable as to principal, premium and Liquidated Damages, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such
purpose within or without the City and State of New York, or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders;
provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of and interest, premium and Liquidated Damages, if any, on, all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which will have
provided wire transfer instructions to the Company or the Paying Agent. Such payment will be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. 
  
 (3) PAYING AGENT,
REGISTRAR AND CALCULATION AGENT. Initially, Wachovia Bank, National Association, the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent, Registrar and Calculation
Agent. The Company may change any Paying Agent, Registrar or Calculation Agent without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity. 
  
 (4) INDENTURE. The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as
of February 10, 2015 (the “Indenture”) between the Company and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the TIA. The Notes are subject to all such
terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and such Act for a statement of such terms. 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. The Notes are unsecured obligations of the Company. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be issued thereunder. 
  
 (5) OPTIONAL REDEMPTION. 
  
 (a) Except as set forth in subparagraphs (b) and (c) of this
Paragraph 5, the Company will not have the option to redeem the Notes prior to February 15, 2007. On or after February 15, 2007, the Company will have the option to redeem all or a part of the Notes upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’
notice, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, on the Notes redeemed, to the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the
twelve-month period beginning on February 15 of the years indicated below, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date:

	 2008
	  	101.500	%

	  	100.000	%

  

 A2-4 








 Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the
Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable redemption date. 
  
 (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph 5, at any time prior to February 15, 2006, the Company may on any
one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under the Indenture at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus a premium equal to the interest rate per annum on the notes
applicable on the date on which the notice of redemption is given, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, to the redemption date with the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings; provided that at least 65%
in aggregate principal amount of Notes originally issued under the Indenture (excluding Notes held by the Company and its Subsidiaries) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption and that such redemption occurs within 90
days of the date of the closing of such Equity Offering. 
  
 (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph 5, at any time prior to February 15, 2007, the Company may also redeem all or a part of the Notes, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60
days’ prior notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, to the Redemption Date, subject to the rights
of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date. 
  
 (6) MANDATORY REDEMPTION. 
  
 The Company is not required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. 
  
 (7) REPURCHASE AT
THE OPTION OF HOLDER. 
  
 (a) If there is a Change of Control, the Company will be required to make an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each
Holder to repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof) of each Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated
Damages, if any, thereon to the date of purchase, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date (in either case, the “Change of Control Payment”). Within
10 days following any Change of Control, the Company will mail a notice to each Holder setting forth the procedures governing the Change of Control Offer as required by the Indenture. 
  
 (b) If the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company consummates any Asset Sales, within five days
of each date on which the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $15.0 million, the Company will commence an offer to all Holders of Notes and all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes containing provisions
similar to those set forth in the Indenture with respect to offers to purchase or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets (an “Asset Sale Offer”) pursuant to Section 3.09 of the Indenture to purchase the maximum principal amount
of Notes (including any Additional Notes) and such other pari passu 

  

 A2-5 








 
Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and
unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, thereon to the date of purchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture. To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes (including any Additional Notes) and other pari
passu Indebtedness tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Company (or such Restricted Subsidiary) may use such deficiency for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by the Indenture. If the aggregate
principal amount of Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness tendered into such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a
pro rata basis. Holders of Notes that are the subject of an offer to purchase will receive an Asset Sale Offer from the Company prior to any related purchase date and may elect to have such Notes purchased by completing the form entitled
“Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Notes. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset to zero. 
  
 (8) NOTICE OF REDEMPTION. Notice of
redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a
redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction or discharge of the Indenture. Notes in denominations larger than $1,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000, unless all
of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed. 
  
 (9) DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1 and integral multiples of $1, with any fractional amount of
Additional Notes issued as interest on the Notes to be paid in cash. 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 the Company may require a Holder 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, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or during the
period between a record date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date.

and (ii) upon presentation of certificates (accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel, if applicable) required by Article 2 of the Indenture. Upon exchange of this Regulation S Temporary Global Note for one or more Global Notes, the Trustee shall cancel

 (10) PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes.

 A2-6 








 
Notes, if any, voting as a single class. Without the consent of any Holder of a Note, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented to cure any
ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes, to provide for the assumption of the Company’s obligations to Holders of the Notes in case of a merger or consolidation,
to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of the Notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under the Indenture of any such Holder, to comply with the requirements of the SEC in order to
effect or maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA, to conform the text of the Indenture or the Notes to any provision of the “Description of Notes” section of the Company’s Offering Memorandum dated February 7, 2005,
relating to the initial offering of the Notes, to the extent that such provision in that “Description of Notes” was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of the Indenture or the Notes; to provide for the issuance of
Additional Notes in accordance with the limitations set forth in the Indenture, to add guarantees with respect to the Notes as required or permitted by the Indenture. 
  
 (12) DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. Events
of Default include: (i) default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on, or Liquidated Damages, if any, with respect to the Notes; (ii) default in the payment when due (at maturity, upon redemption or otherwise) of the principal of, or
premium, if any, on, the Notes, (iii) failure by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to comply with Section 5.01 of the Indenture; (iv) failure by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries for 45 days after notice to the
Company by the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes including Additional Notes, if any, then outstanding voting as a single class to comply with any of the other agreements in the Indenture or the Notes;
(v) default under certain other agreements relating to Indebtedness of the Company which default results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity; (vi) certain final judgments for the payment of money that remain

payable immediately. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. Holders
may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or
power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest or premium or Liquidated Damages, if any,) if it
determines that withholding notice is in their interest. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, rescind an acceleration or
waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or premium or Liquidated Damages, if any, on, or the principal of, the Notes. The

Default or Event of Default.

for the Company or its

Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee. 
  
 (14) NO RECOURSE
AGAINST OTHERS. A director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Company, as such, will not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes or the Indenture or
for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes.

 EXHIBIT F 
  
 FORM OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE 
 TO BE DELIVERED
BY SUBSEQUENT GUARANTORS 
  
 SUPPLEMENTAL
INDENTURE (this “Supplemental Indenture”), dated as of                         ,
200      , among
                                     (the
“Guaranteeing Subsidiary”), a subsidiary of Innophos Investments Holdings, Inc. (or its permitted successor), a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and Wachovia Bank, National Association, as trustee under the
Indenture referred to below (the “Trustee”). 
  
 W
I T N E S S E T H 
  
 WHEREAS, the Company has heretofore executed
and delivered to the Trustee an indenture (the “Indenture”), dated as of February 10, 2005 providing for the issuance of Floating Rate Senior Notes due 2015 (the “Notes”); 
  
 WHEREAS, the Indenture provides that under certain circumstances the
Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture pursuant to which the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall unconditionally guarantee all of the Company’s Obligations under the Notes and the Indenture on the
terms and conditions set forth herein (the “Note Guarantee”); and 
  
 WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Indenture, the Trustee is authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture. 
  
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is
hereby acknowledged, the Guaranteeing Subsidiary and the Trustee mutually covenant and agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes as follows: 
  
 1. CAPITALIZED TERMS. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings
assigned to them in the Indenture. 
  
 2. AGREEMENT
TO GUARANTEE. The Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby agrees to provide an unconditional Guarantee on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Note Guarantee and in the Indenture including but not limited to
Article 11 thereof. 
  
 3. NO
RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. No past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, stockholder or agent of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of
the Company or any Guaranteeing Subsidiary under the Notes, any Note Guarantees, the Indenture or this Supplemental Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of the Notes by
accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. Such waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws and it is the view of
the SEC that such a waiver is against public policy. 
  
 4. NEW
YORK LAW TO GOVERN. THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THIS SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW TO THE EXTENT THAT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF
ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY.

 5. COUNTERPARTS. The parties may sign any number of copies of this Supplemental Indenture.
Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent the same agreement. 
  
 6. EFFECT OF HEADINGS. The Section headings herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof. 
  
 7. THE TRUSTEE. The Trustee shall not be
responsible in any manner whatsoever for or in respect of the validity or sufficiency of this Supplemental Indenture or for or in respect of the recitals contained herein, all of which recitals are made solely by the Guaranteeing Subsidiary and the
Company.

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Supplemental Indenture to be duly executed and
attested, all as of the date first above written.
