 The Securities of each
series shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto or in such other form as shall be established by delivery to the Trustee of an Officers’ Certificate or in one or more indentures supplemental hereto, in each case with such
appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as are required or permitted by this Indenture, and may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such legends or endorsements placed thereon as may be
required to comply with the rules of any securities exchange or as may, consistently herewith, be determined by the Officers executing such Securities as evidenced by their execution of the Securities. 
  
 The permanent Securities shall be printed, lithographed, engraved or cord
processed or produced by any combination of these methods or may be produced in any other manner, provided that such method is permitted by the rules of any securities exchange on which such Securities may be listed, all as determined by the
Officers executing such Securities as evidenced by their execution of such Securities. 
  
 Section 2.02 Securities in Global Form. 
  
 If Securities of a series are issuable as a Global Security, as specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof, then, notwithstanding clause (9) of
Section 2.03(a) hereof and the provisions of Section 2.03(b) hereof, any such Global Security shall represent such of the outstanding Securities of such series as shall be specified therein and may provide that it shall represent the aggregate
principal amount of outstanding Securities from time to time endorsed thereon or otherwise notated on the books and records of the Registrar and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Securities represented thereby may from time to time
be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Security to reflect the aggregate principal amount of any increase or decrease in the amount of outstanding Securities represented thereby
shall be made by the Trustee in such manner and upon instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.08 hereof. 
  
 Global Securities may be issued in either registered or bearer form and in either temporary or permanent form. Permanent Global Securities will be issued
in definitive form. 
  
 The provisions of the last sentence of
Section 2.04 hereof shall apply to any Security represented by a Global Security if such Security was never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company delivers to the Trustee the Security in global form together with written instructions (which
need not comply with Section 14.04 or 14.05 hereof and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel) with regard to the reduction in the principal amount of Securities represented thereby, together with the written statement contemplated by the
last sentence of Section 2.04 hereof. 
  
 Notwithstanding the
provisions of Sections 2.02 and 2.14 hereof, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof, payment of principal of and any interest on any Global Security shall be made to the person or persons specified therein. 

 
 None of the Company, the Guarantor, if any, the Trustee of such series of
Securities, any Paying Agent or Registrar will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Global Security or for maintaining, supervising or
reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.

 All Securities

an Officers’ Certificate pursuant to this Section 2.03(a) or in any indenture supplemental hereto. 
  
 All Securities of any one series need not be issued at the same time and, unless otherwise provided, a series may be reopened for issuances of additional
Securities of such series or for the establishment of additional terms with respect to the Securities of such series. 
  
 If any of the terms of the series are established by action taken pursuant to a Board Resolution, a copy of any appropriate record of such action shall be
certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Officers’ Certificate setting forth the terms of the series. 
  
 (b) Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof with
respect to any series of Securities, the Securities of such series shall be issuable in denominations of $1,000 or integral multiples thereof. 
  
 Section 2.04 Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating. 
  
 Two Officers shall sign the Securities for the Company by manual or facsimile signature. If an Officer whose signature is on
a Security no longer holds that office at the time a Security is authenticated, the Security shall nevertheless be valid. 
  
 A Security shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Security has
been authenticated under this Indenture. 
  
 At any time and from
time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture (and subject to delivery of an Officers’ Certificate or a supplemental indenture as set forth in Section 2.03(a) hereof with respect to the initial issuance of Securities of any
series), the Company may deliver Securities of any series executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities; and the Trustee in accordance with such
Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities. If the forms or terms of the Securities of the series have been established in or pursuant to one or more Officers’ Certificates as permitted by Sections 2.01 and 2.03(a) hereof, in
authenticating such Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating:

  
 (a) that the form or forms and terms of such
Securities have been duly authorized by the Company and established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; and 
  
 (b) that such Securities when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee or its authenticating agent and issued by the Company in the
manner and subject to any conditions specified in such 

  

 12 

 
Opinion of Counsel, will constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to customary
exceptions. 
  
 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.03(a)
hereof and of the preceding paragraph, if all Securities of a series are not to be originally issued at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver the Officers’ Certificate otherwise required pursuant to Section 2.03(a) hereof and the
Opinion of Counsel required by the preceding paragraph at or prior to the time of authentication of each Security of such series if such documents are delivered at or prior to the authentication upon original issuance of the first Security of such
series to be issued. 
  
 Each Security shall be dated the date of
its authentication. 
  
 No Security shall be entitled to any
benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein duly executed by the Trustee by manual signature of an
authorized signatory, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. The Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be in
substantially the following form: 
  
 This is one of the
Securities of the series designated therein referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture. 
  

	 SUNTRUST BANK,

 as Trustee

	
	 By:

	
	 Authorized Officer

  
 Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if any Security shall have been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 2.13 hereof
together with a written statement (which need not comply with Section 14.04 or 14.05 hereof and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel) stating that such Security has never been issued and sold by the Company, for all purposes of this
Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. 
  

Section 2.05 Registrar and Paying Agent. 
  
 The Company shall maintain, with respect to each series of Securities, an office or agency where such Securities may be presented for registration of
transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”) and an office or agency where Securities may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”). The Registrar shall keep a register of the Securities and of their transfer and exchange. The Company
may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar and the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent. The Company may change any Paying
Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Company fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying
Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar. 
  
 The Company initially appoints the Trustee to act as the Registrar and Paying Agent. 
  

 13 

 Section 2.06 Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. 
  
 The Company shall 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 of Securities of any series or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on such series of Securities, 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) shall have no further liability for the money. If the Company or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall
segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Company, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Securities.

  
 Section 2.07 Holder Lists. 
  
 The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable
the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of all Holders of each series of Securities and shall otherwise comply with TIA §312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company shall 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 such
series of Securities and the Company shall otherwise comply with TIA §312(a). 
  
 Section 2.08 Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange. 
  
 Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Securities of a series at an office or agency of the Company designated
pursuant to Section 4.02 hereof for such purpose, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of the same series of any authorized
denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount. The Company shall not charge a service charge for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to pay all taxes, assessments or other
governmental charges that may be imposed in connection with the transfer or exchange of the Securities from the Holder requesting such transfer or exchange (other than any exchange of a temporary Security for a permanent Security not involving any
change in ownership or any exchange pursuant to Section 2.12, 3.06, 9.05 or 10.3 hereof, not involving any transfer). 
  
 Notwithstanding any other provisions (other than the provisions set forth in the sixth and seventh paragraphs) of this Section 2.08, a Security in global
form representing all or a portion of the Securities of a series may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary for such series to a nominee of such Depositary or by a nominee of such Depositary to such Depositary or another nominee of
such Depositary or by such Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary for such series or a nominee of such successor Depositary. 
  
 At the option of the Holder of Securities of any series, Securities of such series may be exchanged for other Securities of the same series of any
authorized denomination or denominations of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute,
and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 
  

 14 

 Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof, if the Securities of any series
shall have been issued in the form of one or more Global Securities, such series of Securities in global form will be exchanged for Securities of such series in permanent form if (i) the Depositary for the Securities of such series notifies the
Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the Securities of such series and a successor Depositary for the Securities of such series is not appointed by the Company within 120 days after the Company receives such notice,
(ii) the Company in its sole discretion determines that the Securities of such series shall no longer be represented by such Global Security or Securities or (iii) an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of such series shall have occurred
and be continuing. In any such event the Company will execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of permanent Securities of such series, will authenticate and deliver Securities of such series in
permanent form and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Security or Securities in global form representing such series in exchange for such Security or Securities in global form. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as otherwise specified in the preceding
paragraph or as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof, any Global Security shall be exchangeable only as provided in this paragraph. If the beneficial owners of interests in a Global Security are entitled to exchange such interests for permanent
Securities of such series and of like principal amount and tenor but of another authorized form and denomination, as specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof, then without unnecessary delay but in any event not later than the earliest
date on which such interests may be so exchanged, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee permanent Securities in aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Global Security, executed by the Company. On or after the earliest
date on which such interests may be so exchanged, such Global Security shall be surrendered by the Depositary with respect thereto to the Trustee, as the Company’s agent for such purpose, to be exchanged, in whole or from time to time in part,
for permanent Securities without charge and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for each portion of such Global Security, an equal aggregate principal amount of permanent Securities of the same series of authorized denominations
and of like tenor as the portion of such Global Security to be exchanged which shall be in the form of Securities, or any combination thereof, as shall be specified by the beneficial owner thereof; provided, however, that notwithstanding the last
paragraph of this Section 2.08 hereof, no such exchanges may occur during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before any selection of Securities of that series to be redeemed and ending on the relevant Redemption Date. If a
Registered Security is issued in exchange for any portion of a Global Security after the close of business at the office or agency where such exchange occurs on (i) any Regular Record Date and before the opening of business at such office or agency
on the relevant Interest Payment Date, or (ii) any Special Record Date and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the related proposed date for payment of Defaulted Interest (as defined herein), interest or Defaulted Interest, as
the case may be, will not be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, in respect of such Security, but will be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be,
only to the Person to whom interest in respect of such portion of such Global Security is payable in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture. 
  
 Upon the exchange of a Security in global form for Securities in permanent form, such Security in global form shall be cancelled by the Trustee. All
cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall be destroyed by the Trustee and a certificate of their destruction delivered to the Company unless the Company directs, by Company Order, that the Trustee shall cancel Securities and deliver a
certificate of destruction to the Company. Securities issued in exchange for a Security in global form pursuant to this Section 2.08 hereof shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary for such Security in
global form, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee in writing. The Trustee shall deliver such Securities as instructed in writing by the Depositary. 
  

 15 

 All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid
obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 
  
 Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall be duly endorsed, or be
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar duly executed, by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. 
  
 The Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Securities of any series during a
period beginning at the opening of 15 days before any selection of Securities of such series to be redeemed and ending at the close of business on the day of the mailing of the relevant notice of redemption or (ii) to register the transfer of or
exchange any Security of any series so selected for redemption, in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part. 
  
 Section 2.09 Replacement Securities. 
  
 If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee or the Company and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or
theft of any Security, the Company shall issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order, shall authenticate a replacement Security 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 Security is replaced. The Company
may charge for its expenses in replacing a Security. 
  
 Every
replacement Security is an additional obligation of the Company and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Securities duly issued hereunder. 
  
 Section 2.10 Outstanding Securities. 
  
 The Securities of any series outstanding at any time are all the Securities
of such series authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Security effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those
described in this Section as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.11 hereof, a Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Security. Subject to the foregoing, only Securities
outstanding at the time of such determination shall be considered in any such determination (including, without limitation, determinations pursuant to Articles 6 and 9 hereof). In addition, in determining whether the Holders of the requisite
principal amount of outstanding Securities have given or concurred in any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver hereunder, (i) the principal amount of a Discount Security that shall be deemed to be outstanding shall be
the amount of the principal thereof that would be due and payable as of the date of such determination upon acceleration of the maturity thereof pursuant to Section 6.02 hereof and (ii) the principal amount of a Security denominated in a foreign
currency or currencies shall be the dollar equivalent, as determined on the date of original issuance of such Security, of the principal amount (or, in the case of a Discount Security, the dollar equivalent on the date of original issuance of such
Security of the amount determined as provided in (i) above) of such Security. 
  
 If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.09 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Security is held by a bona fide purchaser. 
  

 16 

 If the principal amount of any Security 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 Securities payable on that date, then on and after that date such Securities shall be deemed to be no
longer outstanding and shall cease to accrue interest. 
  
 Section 2.11 Treasury Securities. 
  
 In determining
whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Securities of any series have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Securities of such series 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, shall be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only
Securities of that series that the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. 
  
 Section 2.12 Temporary Securities. 
  
 Until certificates representing Securities of any series are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order,
shall authenticate temporary Securities. Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of certificated Securities but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Securities as shall be reasonably acceptable to
the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Securities of the same series in exchange for temporary Securities. 
  
 Holders of temporary Securities of any series shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture as permanent
Securities of the same series. 
  
 Section 2.13
Cancellation. 
  
 The Company at any time may deliver Securities
to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel all Securities surrendered
for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall destroy canceled Securities (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act). Certification of the destruction of all canceled Securities shall
be delivered to the Company. The Company may not issue new Securities to replace Securities that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 
  
 Section 2.14 Payment of Interest. 
  
 Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof with respect to any series of Securities, interest on
any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the person in whose name that Security (or one or more predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the
Regular Record Date for such interest. 
  
 If the Company defaults
in a payment of interest on the Securities of any series which is payable (“Defaulted Interest”), it shall pay the Defaulted Interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the Defaulted Interest, to the
Persons who are Holders of the series on a subsequent Special Record Date, in each case at the rate provided in the Securities of that series and in Section 4.01 

  

 17 

 
hereof. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Securities of a series and the date
of the proposed payment. The Company shall fix or cause to be fixed each such Special Record Date and payment date, provided that no such Special Record Date shall be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such Defaulted Interest.
At least 15 days before the Special Record Date, the Company (or, upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company) shall mail or cause to be mailed to Holders of the series a notice that states the
Special Record Date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid. 
  
 Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.14 and Section 2.08 hereof, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall
carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security. 
  
 Section 2.15 Persons Deemed Owners. 
  
 Prior to due presentment of a Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the
person in whose name such Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof and subject to Sections 2.08 and 2.14
hereof) interest on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

  
 None of the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the
Registrar will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Security in global form or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records
relating to such beneficial ownership interests. 
  
 Section 2.16 Computation of Interest. 
  
 Except as
otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof for Securities of any series, (i) interest on any Securities which bear interest at a fixed rate shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months and
(ii) interest on any Securities which bear interest at a variable rate shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days in an interest period divided by 360. 
  
 Section 2.17 CUSIP Numbers. 
  
 The Company, in issuing the Securities, may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee
shall use “CUSIP” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities of a series or
as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities of such series, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers.
The Company will promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers. 
  
 Section 2.18 Global Security Legend. 
  
 Each Global Security shall bear a legend in substantially the following form: 
  

 18 

 “THIS GLOBAL SECURITY IS HELD BY THE DEPOSITARY (AS DEFINED IN THE INDENTURE GOVERNING THIS
SECURITY) OR ITS NOMINEE IN CUSTODY FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE BENEFICIAL OWNERS HEREOF, AND IS NOT TRANSFERABLE TO ANY PERSON UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES EXCEPT THAT (I) THE TRUSTEE MAY MAKE SUCH NOTATIONS HEREON AS MAY BE REQUIRED PURSUANT TO THE
INDENTURE, (II) THIS GLOBAL SECURITY MAY BE EXCHANGED IN WHOLE BUT NOT IN PART PURSUANT TO SECTION 2.08 OF THE INDENTURE, (III) THIS GLOBAL SECURITY MAY BE DELIVERED TO THE TRUSTEE FOR CANCELLATION PURSUANT TO SECTION 2.13 OF THE INDENTURE AND (IV)
THIS GLOBAL SECURITY MAY BE TRANSFERRED TO A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY WITH THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF OMNICARE, INC.”

Securities of any series, it shall furnish to the Trustee, at least 35 days (or such shorter period as may be acceptable to the Trustee) but not more than 75 days before a redemption date, an Officers’ Certificate setting forth (i) the clause
of this Indenture pursuant to which the redemption shall occur, (ii) the Redemption Date, (iii) the principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed, (iv) any other information necessary to identify the Securities of such series to be

 Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof with respect to any series of Securities, if less than all of the Securities of a series are to be redeemed or purchased in an offer to purchase at any time, the Trustee
will select the Securities to be redeemed or purchased among the Holders of the Securities of that Series in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Securities are listed or, if the
Securities are not so listed, on a pro rata basis, by lot or in accordance with any other method the Trustee considers fair and appropriate. In the event of partial redemption by lot, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected,
unless otherwise provided herein, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee from the outstanding Securities not previously called for redemption. 
  
 The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any
Security selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof, Securities and portions of Securities selected will be in amounts of $1,000 or whole
multiples of $1,000. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Securities called for redemption also apply to portions of Securities called for redemption. 
  
 Section 3.03 Notice of Redemption to Holders. 
  
 Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof with
respect to any series of Securities, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a Redemption Date, the Company shall mail or 

  

 19 

 
cause to be mailed, by first class mail, a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Securities are to be redeemed at its registered address. 
  
 The notice shall identify the Securities to be redeemed and shall state:

  
 (a) the Redemption Date; 
  
 (b) the Redemption Price; 
  
 (c) if less than all the outstanding Securities of any
series are to be redeemed, the identification (and in the case of partial redemption, the principal amount) of the particular Security to be redeemed; 
  
 (d) that, after the Redemption Date upon surrender of such Security, a new Security or Securities in principal amount equal to the
unredeemed portion shall be issued upon cancellation of the original Security; 
  
 (e) the name and address of the Paying Agent; 
  
 (f) that Securities called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the Redemption Price; 
  
 (g) that, unless the Company defaults in making such
redemption payment, interest, if any, on Securities called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the Redemption Date; 
  
 (h) the paragraph of the Securities and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Securities called for redemption are being
redeemed; 
  
 (i) that the redemption is for a
sinking fund, if such is the case; and 
  
 (j)
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 Securities. 
  
 At the Company’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at its expense; provided, however, that the
Company shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least 45 days prior to the Redemption Date (or such shorter period as may 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. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, a redemption notice may be mailed more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Securities or satisfaction and discharge

 Section 3.04 Effect of
Notice of Redemption. 
  
 Once notice of redemption is mailed in
accordance with Section 3.03 hereof, Securities called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the Redemption Date at the Redemption Price. A notice of redemption may not be conditional. 
  

 20 

 Section 3.05 Deposit of Redemption Price. 
  
 Prior to 12:00 noon (Eastern Standard Time) on the Redemption Date, the
Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of and accrued interest on all Securities of a series to be redeemed on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall promptly return to
the Company any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Company in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the Redemption Price of, and accrued interest on, all Securities to be redeemed. 
  
 If the Company complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on
and after the Redemption Date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Securities or the portions of Securities called for redemption. If a Security is redeemed on or after a Regular 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 Security was registered at the close of business on such Regular Record Date. If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender for
redemption because of the failure of the Company to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal from the Redemption 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 Securities and in Section 4.01 hereof. 
  
 Section 3.06 Securities Redeemed in Part. 
  
 Upon surrender of a Security that is redeemed in part, the Company shall issue and, upon the Company’s written request, the Trustee shall

 The Company also may from time to time designate
one or more other offices or agencies where the Securities of a series 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 shall

rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

30 days; 
  
 (b) the Company defaults in the
payment when due of principal of or premium, if any, on the Securities of such series when the same becomes due and payable at maturity, upon redemption or otherwise;

 (i) is for relief against the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case;

  
 (ii) appoints a custodian of the Company or

Guarantor relating to such series of Securities, or any Person acting on behalf of any such Guarantor, shall deny or disaffirm its obligations under such Guarantor’s Security Guarantee (unless such Guarantor could be released from its Guarantee

 If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of
that series may declare all the Securities of that series to be due and payable immediately. Upon any such declaration, the Securities of that series shall become due and payable immediately. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount
of the then outstanding Securities of a series by written notice to the Trustee may on behalf of all of the Holders of such series of Securities rescind an acceleration and its consequences if all existing Events of Default (except nonpayment of
principal, interest or premium that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or waived.

Indenture. 
  
 The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it
does not possess any of the Securities of a series or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of a Security of such series 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 Securities of a series by notice

premium, if any, or interest on, the Securities of that series (including in connection with an offer to purchase) (provided, however, that the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of a series 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 principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of any series 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 such Securities or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability. 
  
 Section 6.06 Limitation on Suits.

 (e) during such 60-day period the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of such series do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request. 
  
 A Holder of any Security may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights
of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder. 
  
 Section 6.07 Rights of Holders of Securities to Receive Payment and Convert. 
  
 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the Holder of any Security shall have the right to receive payment of principal of, premium, if
any, and interest on such Security, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Security (including in connection with an offer to purchase), or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates shall
not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder. 
  
 Section 6.08 Collection Suit by Trustee. 
  
 If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a) or (b) hereof occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company for the
whole amount of principal of, premium, if any, and interest remaining unpaid on the Securities of any series and interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and
expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. 
  
 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 Securities of any series allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the
Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities of that series), 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
Securities 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.

respectively; and 
  
 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 Securities pursuant to this Section 6.10.

 In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as a
Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees,
against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder of a Security of any series
pursuant to Section 6.07 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of any series. 
  
 ARTICLE 7. 
 TRUSTEE 

 
 Section 7.01 Duties of Trustee. 
  
 (a) If an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of any series has
occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the
conduct of such person’s own affairs. 
  
 (b) With respect to
the Securities of any series, except during the continuance of an Event of Default with respect to Securities of such series:

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 
  

 28 

 (ii) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to
the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. However, the Trustee shall 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: 
  
 (i) this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph

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

 29

from the Company or any Guarantor, if applicable, shall be sufficient if signed by an Officer of the Company or Guarantor, as applicable. 
  
 (f) The Trustee shall 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 shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction. 
  
 Section 7.03 Individual Rights of Trustee. 
  
 The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or
pledgee of Securities 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 or resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11 hereof. 
  
 Section 7.04 Trustee’s Disclaimer. 
  
 The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to
the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Securities, it shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the Securities or any money paid to the Company or upon the Company’s direction under any provision of
this Indenture, it shall not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee, and it shall not be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Securities or any
other document in connection with the sale of the Securities 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 with respect to a series of Securities and if it is known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail
to Holders of Securities of such series 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, if any, or interest on any Security, 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 Securities. 
  
 Section 7.06 Reports by Trustee to Holders of the
Securities. 
  
 Within 60 days after each
             beginning with the              following the date of this Indenture, and for so long as Securities of
any series remain outstanding, the Trustee shall mail to the Holders of the Securities of such series 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 shall comply with TIA §313(b)(2). The Trustee also shall transmit by mail all reports as required by TIA § 313(c). 
  
 A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to the Holders of Securities
shall be mailed to the Company and filed with the SEC and each stock exchange on which the Securities are listed in accordance with TIA § 313(d). The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee when the Securities are listed on any stock
exchange.

 Section 7.07 Compensation and Indemnity. 
  
 The Company shall pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable
compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request
for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and
counsel. 
  
 The Company shall 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 or 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 shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company shall not
relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder. The Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel.
The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. 
  
 The obligations of the Company under this Section 7.07 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
  
 To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section 7.07, the
Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Securities on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal and interest on particular Securities. Such Lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of
this Indenture. 
  
 When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders
services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(e) or (f) hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of
administration under any Bankruptcy Law. 
  
 The Trustee shall
comply with the provisions of TIA §313(b)(2) to the extent applicable. 
  
 Section 7.08 Replacement of Trustee. 
  
 A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.08. 
  
 The Trustee may resign in writing at any time and be discharged from the
trust hereby created by so notifying the Company. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of any series may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Company in writing. The Company may remove
the Trustee if: 
  
 (a) the Trustee fails to
comply with Section 7.10 hereof; 
  

 31 

 (b) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered
with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law; 
  
 (c) a custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or 
  
 (d) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting. 
  
 If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor
Trustee. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of any series may appoint a successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the
Company. 
  
 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 principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of any series may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor Trustee. 
  
 If the Trustee, after
written request by any Holder who has been a Holder for at least six months, fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof, such Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor
Trustee. 
  
 A successor Trustee shall deliver a written
acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee
under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, provided all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder
have been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.07 hereof. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.07 hereof shall continue for the benefit of the
retiring Trustee. 
  
 Section 7.09 Successor
Trustee by Merger, etc. 
  
 If the Trustee consolidates, merges
or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation, the successor corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee. 
  
 Section 7.10 Eligibility; Disqualification.

and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $100 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. 
  
 This Indenture shall 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.

 ARTICLE 8. 
 LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND
COVENANT DEFEASANCE 
  
 Section 8.01 Option
to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 
  
 Unless
otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof with respect to Securities of a particular series, the Company may elect, at its option, at any time, to have either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof be applied to all outstanding Securities
of any series designated pursuant to Section 2.03(a) hereof as being defeasible (the “Defeased Securities”) in accordance with any additional requirements provided pursuant to Section 2.03(a) hereof and upon compliance with the conditions
set forth below in this Article 8. Any such election shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution set forth in an Officers’ Certificate or in another manner specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof for such Securities. 
  
 Section 8.02 Legal Defeasance and Discharge. 
  
 Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option (if
any) to have this Section 8.02 applied to any Securities of any series, the Company shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to all
outstanding Defeased Securities on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire
Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Defeased Securities, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (a) and (b) below,
and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Defeased Securities 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 shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (a) the rights of Holders of outstanding Defeased Securities to receive solely from the trust fund under Section 8.04 hereof, and as more fully set forth in such
Section, payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Defeased Securities when such payments are due, (b) the Company’s obligations with respect to such Defeased Securities under Article 2 and Section 4.02
hereof, (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the Company’s obligations in connection therewith and (d) 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 (if any) to have this Section 8.03 applied to any Securities of any series, the
Company and, if applicable, each Guarantor shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from its obligations under Sections 4.03 and 4.06 hereof and Articles 5 and 12 hereof and such other
provisions as may be provided as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof with respect to Securities of a particular series and with respect to the outstanding Defeased Securities on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof
are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Defeased Securities shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders of such Defeased
Securities (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such 

  

 33 

 
Defeased Securities shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the
outstanding Defeased Securities, the Company and, if applicable, each Guarantor may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by
reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default
under Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Defeased Securities shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to
this Section 8.03 hereof, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof and Sections 6.01(c), (d) and (g) hereof shall not constitute Events of Default. 
  
 Section 8.04 Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. 
  
 The following shall be the conditions to the application of either Section
8.02 or 8.03 hereof to a series of outstanding Securities: 
  
 Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof with respect to any series of Securities, in order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance: 
  
 (a) the Company must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee,
in trust, for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars (if the U.S. dollar is the currency in which the Securities of such series are payable), non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be
sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the outstanding Securities of such series on the stated date for payment thereof or on the
applicable redemption date, as the case may be and the Company shall have specified whether the Securities of such series are being defeased to maturity or to a particular redemption date; 
  
 (b) in the case of an election under Section 8.02 hereof,
the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel 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 this Indenture was first executed,
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 Securities of such series 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; and 
  
 (c) in the case of an election
under Section 8.03 hereof, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Securities of such series 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. 
  
 Section 8.05 Deposited Money and Government Securities to be
Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. 
  

 34 

 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 Defeased Securities shall be held in trust and
applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Defeased Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the
Holders of such Defeased Securities of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
  
 The Company shall 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 Defeased Securities. 
  
 Anything in this Article 8 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall 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 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, if any, or interest on any Securities of a series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such
principal, and premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on its request or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such series of Securities shall thereafter
look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or
such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and
that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company. 
  
 Section 8.07 Reinstatement. 
  
 If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any cash 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 Defeased Securities shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to
apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Company makes any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Defeased Securities following the reinstatement
of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Defeased Securities to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

 (h) to mortgage, pledge, hypothecate or grant a security interest in favor of the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of Securities of

Holders of Securities. 
  
 Except as provided below in this
Section 9.02, the Company and the Trustee may amend this Indenture or the Securities of any series with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Securities of such series then outstanding voting as a single class
(including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, such Securities), and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, any existing Default or Event of Default with respect to a particular series of
Securities (other than a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on such Securities, except a payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with any
provision of this Indenture or such Securities may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of such series voting as a single class (including consents obtained in connection with
a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, such Securities). 
  
 Upon the request of the Company accompanied by a Board Resolution 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 Securities as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02 hereof, the Trustee shall join with the Company and, if applicable, the Guarantors in the execution of such amended or supplemental
Indenture unless such amended or supplemental Indenture directly affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter
into such amended or supplemental Indenture. 
  
 It shall not be
necessary for the consent of the Holders of Securities under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. 
  
 After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes
effective, the Company shall mail to the Holders of Securities affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way
impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental indenture or waiver. Subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof and except as otherwise provided below in this Section 9.02, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of
the Securities of any series 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 Securities of such series. However, without the consent of each Holder
affected, an amendment or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not (with respect to any Securities of such series held by a non-consenting Holder): 
  
 (a) change the Stated Maturity of, the principal of, or any installment of principal or interest on, any such Security, or reduce the
principal amount thereof or the rate of interest thereon or any premium payable upon redemption thereof or reduce the amount of principal of or premium, if any, on any such Discount Security that would be due and payable upon a declaration of
acceleration of maturity thereof pursuant to Section 6.02 hereof, or change the place of payment where, or change the coin or currency in which, any principal of, or any installment of interest on, any such Security is payable, or impair the right
to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the Stated Maturity thereof (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date); 
  

 37 

 (b) reduce the percentage in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any
series, the consent of whose Holders is required for any such amendment or supplemental indenture, or the consent of whose Holders is required for any waiver (of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and
their consequences) with respect to the Securities of such series provided for in this Indenture; 
  
 (c) modify any of the provisions of this Section 9.02 or Section 6.04 or 6.07 hereof, except to increase the percentage of outstanding
Securities of such series required for such actions to provide that certain other provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each outstanding Security of a series affected thereby; 
  
 (d) release any applicable Guarantor from any of its
obligations under its Security Guarantee or this Indenture, except in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; or 
  
 (e) change such other matters as may be specified pursuant to Section 2.03(a) hereof. 
  
 Section 9.03 Compliance with Trust Indenture Act.

  
 Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the
Securities of any series shall be set forth in an 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 Security is a continuing consent by the Holder of a
Security and every subsequent Holder of a Security or portion of a Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Security. However, any such Holder of a Security or
subsequent Holder of a Security may revoke the consent as to its Securities if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the waiver, supplement or amendment becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes
effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder. 
  
 Section 9.05 Notation on or Exchange of Securities. 
  
 The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Security of a series thereafter authenticated. The Company in exchange for all Securities of a series may issue and the
Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Company Order, authenticate new Securities of such series that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver. Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Security shall not affect the validity and effect of
such amendment, supplement or waiver. 
  
 Section
9.06 Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc. 
  
 The Trustee shall 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 amendment or supplemental
Indenture until the Board of Directors approves it. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) shall be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the
documents required by Section 14.04 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. 
  

 38 

 Section 9.07 Effect of Supplemental Indentures. 
  
 Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture under this Article 9, this
Indenture shall be modified in accordance therewith, and such supplemental indenture shall form a part of this Indenture for all purposes; and every Holder of Securities theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder shall be bound
thereby, except to the extent otherwise set forth thereon. 
  
 ARTICLE 10. 
 SINKING FUNDS 
  
 Section 10.01 Applicability of Article. 
  
 The provisions of this Article 10 shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of a series, except as otherwise specified as
contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof for Securities of such series. 
  
 The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as a “Mandatory Sinking Fund Payment,” and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the
terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as an “Optional Sinking Fund Payment.” If provided for by the terms of Securities of any series, the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in
Section 10.02 hereof. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities of any series as provided for by the terms of the Securities of such series. 
  
 Section 10.02 Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities. 
  
 The Company (a) may deliver outstanding Securities of a series with the same
issue date, interest rate and Stated Maturity (other than any previously called for redemption) and (b) may apply as a credit Securities of a series with the same issue date, interest rate and Stated Maturity which have been redeemed either at the
election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such Securities or through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms of such Securities, in each case in satisfaction of all or any part of any mandatory
sinking fund payment with respect to the Securities of such series with the same issue date, interest rate and Stated Maturity; provided, that such Securities have not been previously so credited. Such Securities shall be received and credited for
such purpose by the Trustee at the Redemption Price specified in such Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly. 
  
 Section 10.03 Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund.

  
 Not less than 60 days (or such shorter period as shall be
acceptable to the Trustee) prior to each sinking fund payment date for any series of Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing sinking fund payment for that series
pursuant to the terms of that series, the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash and the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities of that series pursuant to Section 10.02
hereof and will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. Not less than 30 days before each such sinking fund payment date the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in the manner
specified in Section 3.02 hereof and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense of the Company in the manner provided in 

  

 39 

 
Section 3.03 hereof. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections
3.04 and 3.06 hereof. 
  
 ARTICLE 11. 
 SUBORDINATION 
  
 Section 11.01 Agreement to Subordinate. 
  
 The Company agrees, and each Holder by accepting a Security agrees that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof, the
Indebtedness evidenced by the Security is subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in this Article 11, to the prior payment in full of all Senior Debt with respect to such Security (whether outstanding on the date
hereof or hereafter created, incurred, assumed or guaranteed), and that the subordination is for the benefit of the holders of such Senior Debt. 
  
 Section 11.02 Liquidation; Dissolution; Bankruptcy. 
  
 Upon any distribution to creditors of the Company in a liquidation or dissolution of the Company or in a bankruptcy,
reorganization, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding relating to the Company or its property, in an assignment for the benefit of creditors or any marshaling of the Company’s assets and liabilities: 
  
 (a) holders of Senior Debt shall be entitled to receive
payment in full of all Obligations due in respect of such Senior Debt (including interest after the commencement of any such proceeding at the rate specified in the applicable Senior Debt, whether or not allowable as a claim in such proceeding)
before Holders of the Securities of a series shall be entitled to receive any payment with respect to such Securities (except that Holders may receive and retain (A) Permitted Junior Securities and (B) payments and other distributions made from any
defeasance trust created pursuant to Section 8.01 hereof); and 
  
 (b) until all Obligations with respect to Senior Debt (as provided in clause (a) above) are paid in full, any distribution to which Holders of Securities of such series would be entitled but for this Article 11 shall
be made to holders of Senior Debt (except that Holders of Securities may receive and retain (A) Permitted Junior Securities and (B) payments and other distributions made from any defeasance trust created pursuant to Section 8.01 hereof), as their
interests may appear. 
  
 Section 11.03 Default
on Designated Senior Debt. 
  
 (a) The Company may not make any
payment or distribution in respect of the Securities of such series (other than (A) Permitted Junior Securities and (B) payments and other distributions made from any defeasance trust created pursuant to Section 8.01 hereof) if: 
  
 (i) a default in the payment of any principal or other
Obligations with respect to Designated Senior Debt occurs and is continuing beyond any applicable grace period in the agreement, indenture or other document governing such Designated Senior Debt (a “payment default”); or 
  
 (ii) a default, other than a payment default, on Designated
Senior Debt occurs and is continuing that then permits holders of the Designated Senior Debt to accelerate its maturity and the Trustee receives a notice of the default (a “Payment Blockage Notice”) from a Person who may give it 

  

 40 

 
pursuant to Section 11.12 hereof. If the Trustee receives any such Payment Blockage Notice, no subsequent Payment Blockage Notice shall be effective for
purposes of this Section 11.03 unless and until (A) at least 360 days shall have elapsed since the delivery of the immediately prior Payment Blockage Notice and (B) all scheduled payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on the
Securities that have come due have been paid in full in cash. No nonpayment default that existed or was continuing on the date of delivery of any Payment Blockage Notice to the Trustee shall be, or be made, the basis for a subsequent Payment
Blockage Notice unless such default shall have been waived for a period of not less than 90 days. 
  
 (b) The Company may and shall resume payments on and distributions in respect of the Securities of such series upon the earlier of: 
  
 (i) the date upon which the default is cured or waived or
such Designated Senior Debt is discharged or paid in full, or 
  
 (ii) in the case of a default referred to in clause (ii) Section 11.03(a) hereof 179 days pass after notice is received if the maturity of such Designated Senior Debt has not been accelerated. 
  
 Section 11.04 Acceleration of Securities. 
  
 If payment of the Securities of such series is accelerated because of an
Event of Default, the Company shall promptly notify holders of Senior Debt of the acceleration. 
  
 Section 11.05 When Distribution Must Be Paid Over. 
  
 In the event that the Trustee or any Holder receives any payment of any Obligations with respect to the Securities of a
series at a time when such payment is prohibited by Section 11.03 hereof, such payment shall be held by the Trustee or such Holder, in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid forthwith over and delivered, upon written request, to, the holders of
Senior Debt with respect to Securities of such series as their interests may appear or their Representative under this Indenture or other agreement (if any) pursuant to which such Senior Debt may have been issued, as their respective interests may
appear, for application to the payment of all Obligations with respect to such Senior Debt remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay such Obligations in full in accordance with their terms, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or
distribution to or for the holders of such Senior Debt. 
  
 With
respect to the holders of Senior Debt, the Trustee undertakes to perform only such obligations on the part of the Trustee as are specifically set forth in this Article 11, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of Senior
Debt shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Debt, and shall not be liable to any such holders if the Trustee shall pay over or distribute to or on
behalf of holders or the Company or any other Person money or assets to which any holders of Senior Debt shall be entitled by virtue of this Article 11, except if such payment is made as a result of the willful misconduct or negligence of the
Trustee. 
  

 41 

 Section 11.06 Notice by Company. 
  
 The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee and the Paying Agent of any
facts known to the Company that would cause a payment of any Obligations with respect to the Securities to violate this Article 11, but failure to give such notice shall not affect the subordination of the Securities to Senior Debt as provided in
this Article 11. 
  
 Section 11.07 Subrogation.

  
 After all Senior Debt is paid in full and until the
Securities of a series are paid in full, Holders of Securities of such series shall be subrogated (equally and ratably with all other Indebtedness pari passu with the Securities of such series) to the rights of holders of Senior Debt with
respect to Securities of such series to receive distributions applicable to such Senior Debt to the extent that distributions otherwise payable to the Holders of Securities of such series have been applied to the payment of Senior Debt. A
distribution made under this Article 11 to holders of Senior Debt that otherwise would have been made to Holders of Securities is not, as between the Company and Holders, a payment by the Company on the Securities. 
  
 Section 11.08 Relative Rights. 
  
 This Article 11 defines the relative rights of Holders of Securities and
holders of Senior Debt. Nothing in this Indenture shall: 
  
 (i) impair, as between the Company and Holders of Securities, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities in accordance with
their terms; 
  
 (ii) affect the relative rights
of Holders of Securities and creditors of the Company other than their rights in relation to holders of Senior Debt; or 
  
 (iii) prevent the Trustee or any Holder of Securities from exercising its available remedies upon a Default or Event of Default, subject
to the rights of holders and owners of Senior Debt to receive distributions and payments otherwise payable to Holders of Securities. 
  
 If the Company fails because of this Article 11 to pay principal of, premium, if any, or interest on a Security on the due date, the failure is still a
Default or Event of Default. 
  
 Section 11.09
Subordination May Not Be Impaired by Company. 
  
 No right of any
holder of Senior Debt to enforce the subordination of the Indebtedness evidenced by the Securities shall be impaired by any act or failure to act by the Company or by the failure of the Company to comply with this Indenture. 
  
 Section 11.10 Distribution or Notice to Representative.

  
 Whenever a distribution is to be made or a notice given to
holders of Senior Debt, the distribution may be made and the notice given to their Representative. 
  
 Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article 11, the Trustee and the Holders of Securities shall be entitled to
rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction or upon any certificate of such Representative or of the liquidating trustee or agent or 

  

 42 

 
other Person making any distribution to the Trustee or to the Holders of Securities for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in
such distribution, the holders of the Senior Debt and other Indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article 11.

  
 Section 11.11 Rights of Trustee and Paying
Agent. 
  
 Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article 11 or
any other provision of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts that would prohibit the making of any payment or distribution by the Trustee, and the Trustee and the Paying Agent may continue to
make payments on the Securities, unless the Trustee shall have received at its Corporate Trust Office at least one Business Day prior to the date of such payment written notice of facts that would cause the payment of any Obligations with respect to
the Securities to violate this Article 11. Only the Company or a Representative may give the notice. Nothing in this Article 11 shall impair the claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 7.07 hereof. 
  
 The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may hold Senior Debt with
the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Agent may do the same with like rights. 
  
 Section 11.12 Authorization to Effect Subordination. 
  
 Each Holder of Securities, by the Holder’s acceptance thereof, authorizes and directs the Trustee on such Holder’s
behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination as provided in this Article 11, and appoints the Trustee to act as such Holder’s attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. If the Trustee does
not file a proper proof of claim or proof of debt in the form required in any proceeding referred to in Section 6.09 hereof at least 30 days before the expiration of the time to file such claim, the Representatives are hereby authorized to file an
appropriate claim for and on behalf of the Holders of the Securities. 
  
 ARTICLE 12. 
 SECURITY GUARANTEES 
  
 Section 12.01 Applicability of this Article. 
  
 Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof, the provisions of this Article 12 will be
applicable to any series of Securities which is to be guaranteed by one or more Guarantors. 
  
 Section 12.02 Guarantee. 
  
 Subject to this Article 12, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of Securities of a particular
series as to which it is a Guarantor authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Securities of such series or the obligations of
the Company hereunder or thereunder, that: (a) the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities of such series will be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on
the overdue principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Securities of such series, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Company to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder will be promptly paid in full or
performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (b) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Securities of such series or any of such other 

  

 43 

 
obligations, that same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated
maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor
agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection. 
  
 Subject to this Article 12, the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, agree that their obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Securities of
a series or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Securities of such series with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any
action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in
the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenant that this Security Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete
performance of the obligations contained in the Securities of such series and this Indenture. 
  
 If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or
the Guarantors, any amount paid by either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Security Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect. 
  
 Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any
obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the
obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 hereof for the purposes of this Security Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations
guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6 hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the
purpose of this Security Guarantee. The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Security Guarantee. 
  
 Section 12.03 Subordination of Security Guarantee.

  
 Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a)
hereof, the Obligations of each Guarantor under any series of Securities which are to be guaranteed pursuant to this Article 12 shall be junior and subordinated to the Senior Debt of such Guarantor with respect to such series of Securities on the
same basis as the Securities are junior and subordinated to Senior Debt of the Company with respect to such series of Securities. For the purposes of the foregoing sentence, the Trustee and the Holders shall have the right to receive and/or retain
payments by any of the Guarantors only at such times as they may receive and/or retain payments in respect of the Securities pursuant to this Indenture, including Article 11 hereof. 
  
 Section 12.04 Limitation on Guarantor Liability. 
  
 Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Securities of a series, each
Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Security Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the 

  

 44 

 
Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Security Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing
intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such
Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under
this Article 12, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Security Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. 
  
 Section 12.05 Release of Guarantors. 
  
 The Security Guarantee of a Guarantor with respect to any series of Securities will be released under the circumstances specified for such series of
Securities pursuant to Section 2.03(a) hereof. 
  
 ARTICLE 13.

 SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE 
  
 Section 13.01 Satisfaction and Discharge. 
  
 Except as otherwise contemplated by 2.03(a) hereof, this Indenture will cease to be of further effect with respect to any series of Securities specified
by the Company, and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, will execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as to such series when: 
  
 (a) either: 
  
 (i) all Securities of such series that have been authenticated (except lost, stolen or destroyed Securities of such series that have been
replaced or paid and Securities of such series 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 
  
 (ii) all Securities of such series 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 or, if applicable, any Guarantor 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 (if the U.S. dollar is the currency in which the Securities of such series are payable), non-callable Government
Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on the such Securities not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for
principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption; 
  
 (b) the Company or, if applicable, any Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by it under this Indenture; and

  
 (c) the Company or, if applicable, any
Guarantor has delivered an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied or waived. 
  

 45 

 Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money shall have been deposited with
the Trustee pursuant to subclause (ii) of clause (a) of this Section 13.01, the provisions of Sections 13.02 and 8.06 hereof shall survive. 
  
 Section 13.02 Application of Trust Money. 
  
 Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06 hereof, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 13.01 hereof shall be held in trust and applied
by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities of a series 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, 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 13.01 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 and, if applicable, any Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture and the Securities of such series shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 13.01 hereof; provided that if the Company
has made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Securities of such series because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series to receive
such payment from the money or Government Securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

consideration for issuance of the Securities.

 THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE
STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THIS INDENTURE AND THE SECURITIES, 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.

 This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the Company issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of
                ,              (herein called the “Indenture”), between the Company

interest installments whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to such Redemption Date will be payable to the Holders of such securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, of record at the close of business on the relevant Record Date referred to
on the face hereof, all as provided in the Indenture.] 
  
 [If
applicable, insert—The sinking fund for this series provides for the redemption on              in each year beginning with the year
             and ending with the year              of [if applicable, insert—not less than
$             (“mandatory sinking fund”) and not more than] $             aggregate principal amount of
Securities of this series. Securities of this series acquired or redeemed by the Company otherwise than through [mandatory] sinking fund payments may be credited against subsequent [if applicable, insert—mandatory] sinking fund payments
otherwise required to be made [if applicable, insert—in the inverse order in which they become due].] 
  
 [If applicable, insert—The Securities are subject to redemption, as a whole at any time or in part from time to time, at the sole election of the
Company, upon not less than 30 or more than 60 days notice by mail to the Trustee at a Redemption Price equal to $            .] 
  
 [If applicable, insert—The Holder of this Security shall have the right
to require the Company to pay this Security in full on                 ,      by giving the Company or the Registrar written notice of
the exercise of such right not less than 30 or more than 60 days prior to such date.] 
  
 [If the Security is subject to redemption, insert—In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities of this series and of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof will be

 [If applicable, insert—This Security is not subject to redemption prior to maturity.] 
  
 6. Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. 
  
 [If applicable, insert—The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of
$             and any integral multiple thereof.] As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a
like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. A Holder may register the transfer or exchange of the Security as provided in
the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the
Indenture. 
  
 [If applicable, insert—The Securities of this
series will be represented by one or more Global Securities registered in the name of             , (the “Depositary”), or a nominee of the Depositary. So long as the
Depositary, or its nominee, is the registered holder and owner of this Global Security, the Depositary or such nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole 

  

 A-4 

 
owner and holder of the Securities for all purposes under the Indenture. The Global Security may be transferred, in whole and not in part, only to the
Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary. The Depositary will credit, on its book-entry registration and transfer system, the respective principal amounts of the Securities represented by such Global Security to the accounts of institutions
that have accounts with the Depositary or its nominee (“participants”). Ownership of beneficial interests in a Global Security will be shown on, and the transfer of those ownership interests will be effected through, records maintained by
the Depositary (with respect to participants’ interests) and such participants (with respect to the owners of beneficial interests in such Global Security).] 
  
 [If applicable, insert—The Securities represented by this Global Security are exchangeable for Securities in permanent
form of like tenor as such Global Security in denominations of $1,000 and in any greater amount that is an integral multiple thereof if (i) the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for this Global
Security or if at any time the Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (ii) the Company in its discretion at any time determines not to have all of the Securities of this series
represented by the Global Security and notifies the Trustee thereof, or (iii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Securities. Any Security that is exchangeable pursuant to the preceding sentence is exchangeable
only for Securities of this series.] 
  
 No service charge shall
be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. 
  
 7. Persons Deemed Owners. 
  
 The registered Holder of a Security may be treated as its owner for all
purposes. 
  
 8. Amendment, Supplement and Waiver. 
  
 Subject to certain exceptions, this Indenture and the Securities may be
amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of each series affected by such amendment or supplement and any existing default or compliance with any provision
may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of each series affected by such waiver. Without the consent of any Holder of a Securities of each series affected by such amendment or
supplement, this Indenture and the Securities may be amended or supplemented to, among other things, (a) cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency; (b) provide for uncertificated Securities in addition to or in place of certificated Securities;
(c) provide for the assumption of the Company’s obligations to Holders of the Securities in case of a merger or consolidation; (d) to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of Securities or that does
not adversely affect the legal rights under the Indenture of any Holder; (e) to comply with the requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of this Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act; (f) to allow any Guarantor to
execute a supplemental indenture to this Indenture; (g) evidence or provide for acceptance of appointment of a successor Trustee; (h) mortgage, hypothecate or grant a security interest in favor of the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of
Securities of any series as additional security for the payment and performance of the Company’s or, if applicable, the Guarantor’s obligations herein in any property or assets; or (i) add to, change or eliminate any of the provisions of
this Indenture (which addition, change or elimination may apply to one or more series of Securities), provided that, any such addition, change 

  

 A-5 

 
or elimination set forth in clause (i) above (A) shall neither (x) apply to any Security of any series created prior to the execution of such supplemental
indenture and entitled to the benefit of such provision nor (y) modify the rights of the Holder of any such Security with respect to such provision or (B) shall become effective only when there is no such outstanding Security. 
  
 9. Defaults and Remedies. 
  
 Events of Default include: (a) default for 30 days in the payment when due
of interest on the Securities; (b) default in payment when due of principal of or premium, if any, on the Securities; (c) failure by the Company to comply with Section 5.01 of the Indenture; (d) failure by the Company for 60 days to comply with
certain other agreements in this Indenture or the Securities; (e) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary; and (f) except as permitted by the
Indenture, any applicable Security Guarantee shall be held in any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or shall cease for any reason to be in full force and effect or any Guarantor or any Person acting on its behalf shall deny or
disaffirm its obligations under such Guarantor’s Security Guarantee. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities may declare all the
Securities to be due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency involving the Company, all outstanding Securities will become due and payable without further
action or notice. Holders may not enforce this Indenture or the Securities except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities may direct the Trustee in
its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Securities notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest) if it determines
that withholding notice is in their interest. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Securities waive any existing Default or
Event of Default and its consequences under this Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest on, or the principal of, the Securities. The Company is required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement
regarding compliance with this 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. 
  
 10. 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. 
  
 11. No Recourse Against Others. 
  
 A director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder, of the Company, as such, shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company or
the Guarantors under the Securities or this Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Security waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release
are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Securities. 
  
 12. [If applicable, insert—Guarantees. 
  

 A-6 

 The payment by the Company of the principal of and interest on the Security is fully and unconditionally
guaranteed on a joint and several basis by each of the Guarantors on the terms set forth in the Indenture.] 
  
 13. Authentication. 
  
 This Security shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent. 
  
 14. 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 survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act). 
  
 15. Subordination. 
  
 Each Holder by accepting a Security agrees that the payment of principal,
premium and if any, interest, on each Security is subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in Article 11 of the Indenture, to the prior payment in full of all existing and future Senior Debt (whether outstanding on
the date of the Indenture or thereafter created, incurred, assumed or guaranteed), and the subordination is for the benefit of holders of Senior Debt. 
  
 16. 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 Securities and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of
redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

the nearest one-twelfth of a year) from the weekly average yields of United States Treasury securities for which such yields are given, except that if such period is less than one year, the weekly average yield on actually traded United States
Treasury securities adjusted to a constant maturity of one year shall be used. 
  
 “Trust PIERS” means the $300.0 million aggregate principal amount 4.00% Trust PIERS due 2033 issued by Omnicare Capital Trust I on the Issue Date, plus up to $45.0 million aggregate principal amount
issued upon exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option. 
  
 “Unrestricted Subsidiary” means any Subsidiary of the Company that is designated by the Board of Directors of the Company as an Unrestricted Subsidiary pursuant to a Board Resolution, but only to the extent that such
Subsidiary: 
  

	 	(1)	 	has no Indebtedness other than Indebtedness that is without recourse to the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries; 

  

	 	(2)	 	is not party to any agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding with the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary unless the terms of any such agreement, contract, arrangement or
understanding are not materially less favorable to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary than those that might be obtained at the time from Persons who are not Affiliates of the Company; 

  

	 	(3)	 	is a Person with respect to which neither the Company nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has any (a) continuing direct or indirect obligation to subscribe for additional Equity
Interests or (b) direct or indirect obligation to maintain or preserve such Person’s financial condition or to cause such Person to achieve any specified levels of operating results; and

 In addition, any Subsidiary that constitutes a special purpose entity
formed for the primary purpose of financing receivables or for the primary purpose of issuing trust preferred or similar securities in connection with a transaction permitted by Section 4.03 hereof, shall be an Unrestricted Subsidiary. 

 
 Any designation of a Subsidiary of the Company as an Unrestricted
Subsidiary after the Issue Date will be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the Trustee a certified copy of the Board Resolution giving effect to such designation and an officers’ certificate certifying that such designation complied with
the preceding conditions and was permitted by Section 4.01 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 hereof 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 4.03 hereof,
the 
  

 19 

 
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; provided that such designation will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary and such designation will only be permitted if (1) such
Indebtedness is permitted under Section 4.03 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. 
  
 “Voting Stock” of any
Person as of any date means the Capital Stock of such Person that is at the time entitled to vote in the election of the Board of Directors of such Person. 
  
 “Weighted Average Life to Maturity” means, when applied to any Indebtedness at any date, the number of years obtained by dividing:

  

	 	(1)	 	the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (a) the amount of each then remaining installment, sinking fund, serial maturity or other required payments of principal, including
payment at final maturity, in respect of the Indebtedness, by (b) the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth) that will elapse between such date and the making of such payment; by 

  

	 	(2)	 	the then outstanding principal amount of such Indebtedness.

to the limitations set forth in Section 4.03 of this First Supplemental Indenture. All Notes issued on the Issue Date together with any such additional Notes issued under this First Supplemental Indenture will be treated as a single class of

with respect to the Notes shall be The Depositary Trust Company. Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. The terms and provisions contained in the Notes shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this First
Supplemental Indenture and the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this First Supplemental 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 the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

principal, premium and if any, interest) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Global Securities Holder. The Company will make all payments of principal, interest and premium with respect to Notes issued in
permanent form by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Holders of such Notes or, if no such account is specified, by mailing a check to each such Holder’s registered address. 
  
 ARTICLE III

 Section 3.01. Optional Redemption. At any time prior to June 1, 2006,
the Company may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under this First Supplemental Indenture at a redemption price of 106.125% of the principal amount, plus accrued interest and unpaid, if
any, to the redemption date, with the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings; provided that:

 Section 3.02. Mandatory Redemption. Except as set forth in Sections 3.03, 4.04 and 4.07, the Company is not required to make mandatory redemption
or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. 
  
 Section
3.03. Offer to Purchase by Application of Excess Proceeds. In the event that, pursuant to Section 4.04 hereof, the Company shall be required to commence an Asset Sale Offer, it shall follow the procedures specified below. 
  
 The Asset Sale Offer shall remain open for a period of 20 Business Days
following its commencement, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Offer Period”). No later than five Business Days after the termination of the Offer Period (the “Purchase
Date”), the Company shall purchase the principal amount of Notes required to be purchased pursuant to Section 4.04 hereof (the “Offer Amount”) or, if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered in
response to the Asset Sale Offer. 
  
 If the Purchase Date is on
or after an interest record date and on or before the related interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional
interest shall be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. 
  
 Upon commencement of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company shall send, by first class mail, a notice to the Trustee and each of the Holders. The notice shall contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such
Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. The Asset Sale Offer shall be made to all Holders. The notice, which shall govern the terms of the Asset Sale Offer, shall state: 
  
 (a) that the Asset Sale Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3.03
and Section 4.04 hereof and the length of time the Asset Sale Offer shall remain open; 
  
 (b) the Offer Amount, the purchase price and the Purchase Date; 
  
 (c) that any Note not tendered or accepted for payment shall continue to accrete or accrue interest; 
  
 (d) that, unless the Company defaults in making such payment, any Note
accepted for payment pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer shall cease to accrue interest after the Purchase Date; 
  

 22 

	 	(e)	 	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; 

  
 (f) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to any Asset Sale
Offer shall be required to surrender the Note, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the Note 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; 
  
 (g) that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Company, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, no later
than the close of business on the last day 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; 
  
 (h) that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by Holders exceeds the Offer Amount, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the
Trustee so that only Notes in denominations of $1,000, or integral multiples thereof, shall be purchased); and 
  
 (i) that Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part shall be issued new Notes equal in principal amount, in amounts of $1,000 and integral multiples
of $1,000, to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer) upon cancellation of the original Notes. 
  
 On or before the Purchase Date, the Company shall, 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, deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Offer Amount in respect of all Notes or
portions of Notes properly tendered and shall deliver to the Trustee 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 3.03. The Paying
Agent shall promptly (but in any case not later than five Business 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 shall promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon written request from the Company shall authenticate and mail or deliver such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note
surrendered upon cancellation of the original Note. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Company to the Holder thereof. The Company shall publicly announce the results of the Asset Sale Offer on the Purchase Date.

  
 Other than as specifically provided in this Section 3.03, any
purchase pursuant to this Section 3.03 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06 of the Base Indenture.

Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly: 
  
 (a)
declare or pay any dividend or make any other payment or distribution on account of the Company’s or any Restricted Subsidiary’s Equity Interests (including, without limitation, any payment in connection with any merger or consolidation
involving the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) or to the direct or indirect holders of the Company’s or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Equity Interests in their capacity as such (other than dividends or distributions
payable in Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Company or to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary);

Indebtedness that is subordinated to the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantees, except a payment of interest or principal at the Stated Maturity thereof; or 
  
 (d) make any Restricted Investment (all such payments and other actions set forth in these clauses (a) through (d) being collectively referred to as
“Restricted Payments”), 
  
 unless, at the time of and after giving
effect to such Restricted Payment: 
  
 (i) no
Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur as a consequence of such Restricted Payment; and 
  
 (ii) 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 permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in the first paragraph of Section 4.03 hereof; and

  
 (iii) such Restricted Payment, together with

financial statements are available at the time of such Restricted Payment (or, if such Consolidated Net Income for such period is a deficit, less 100% of such deficit), plus 
  
 (B) 100% of the aggregate net cash proceeds received by the Company since March 20, 2001 as a contribution
to its common equity capital or from the issue or sale of Equity Interests of the Company (other than Disqualified Stock) or from the issue or sale of convertible or exchangeable Disqualified 
  

 24 

 
Stock or convertible or exchangeable debt securities that have been converted into or exchanged for such Equity Interests of the Company (other than Equity
Interests (or Disqualified Stock or debt securities) sold to a Restricted Subsidiary), plus 
  
 (C) to the extent that any Restricted Investment that was made after March 20, 2001 is sold for cash or Cash Equivalents (or a combination
thereof) or otherwise liquidated or repaid for cash or Cash Equivalents (or a combination thereof), the lesser of (1) the return of capital with respect to such Restricted Investment (less the cost of disposition, if any) and (2) the initial amount
of such Restricted Investment, plus 
  
 (D) an amount equal to the sum of (1) the net reduction in Investments in Unrestricted Subsidiaries resulting from cash dividends, repayments of loans or advances or other transfers of assets, in each case to the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary from Unrestricted Subsidiaries, plus (2) the portion (proportionate to the Company’s equity interest in such Subsidiary) of the fair market value of the net assets of an Unrestricted Subsidiary at the time such Unrestricted
Subsidiary is designated a Restricted Subsidiary, in each case since March 20, 2001 (provided, however, that the foregoing sum shall not exceed, in the case of any Unrestricted Subsidiary, the amount of Investments made since March 20,
2001 by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary that were treated as Restricted Payments, and provided, further, that no amount will be included under this clause (D) to the extent it is already included in clauses (A), (B) or (C)
above). 
  
 So long as no Default has occurred and is continuing
or would be caused thereby, the preceding provisions shall not prohibit: 
  
 (a) the payment of any dividend within 60 days after the date of declaration of the dividend, if at the date of declaration the dividend payment would have complied with the provisions of the Indenture; 
  
 (b) the redemption, repurchase, retirement, defeasance or other acquisition
of any subordinated Indebtedness of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary or of any Equity Interests of the Company in exchange for, or out of the net cash proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale (other than to a Restricted Subsidiary) of,
Equity Interests of the Company (other than Disqualified Stock); provided that the amount of any such net cash proceeds that are utilized for any such redemption, repurchase, retirement, defeasance or other acquisition will be excluded from clause
(iii)(B) of the preceding paragraph; 
  
 (c) the defeasance,
redemption, repurchase or other acquisition of subordinated Indebtedness of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary with the net cash proceeds from an incurrence of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; 
  
 (d) the payment of any dividend by a Restricted Subsidiary to the holders of
its Equity Interests on a pro rata basis; 
  
 (e) the repurchase,
redemption or other acquisition or retirement for value of any Equity Interests of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary held by any officer, director or employee of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company in connection with any 

 

 25 

 
management equity subscription agreement, any compensation, retirement, disability, severance or benefit plan or agreement, any stock option or incentive
plan or agreement, any employment agreement or any other similar plans or agreements; provided that the aggregate price paid for all such repurchased, redeemed, acquired or retired Equity Interests may not exceed $30.0 million in any calendar year
(with unused amounts in any calendar year being carried over to succeeding years); 
  
 (f) the payment of dividends by the Company on its common stock in an aggregate annual amount of up to $50.0 million; 
  
 (g) the repurchase of any class of Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary (other than Disqualified Stock) if such repurchase is made pro rata among all
holders of such class of Capital Stock; 
  
 (h) the payment of any
scheduled dividend or similar distribution, and any scheduled repayment of the stated amount, liquidation preference or any similar amount at final maturity or on any scheduled redemption or repurchase date, in respect of any series of preferred
stock or similar securities of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (including Disqualified Stock), provided that (i) such series of preferred stock or similar securities was issued in compliance with Section 4.03 hereof and (ii) such payments
were scheduled to be paid in the original documentation governing such series of preferred stock or other securities (it being understood that the foregoing provisions of this clause (h) shall not be deemed to permit the payment of any dividend or
similar distribution, or the payment of the stated amount, liquidation preference or any similar amount, prior to the date originally scheduled for the payment thereof); 
  
 (i) payments in lieu of fractional shares; 
  
 (j) the redemption of the 5% Convertible Subordinated Debentures due 2007; 
  
 (k) interest payments on the 4.00% Convertible Subordinated Debentures due
2033 and the corresponding distributions paid to holders of the Trust PIERS; 
  
 (l) the distribution of 4.00% Convertible Subordinated Debentures due 2033 to holders of the Trust PIERS in connection with the liquidation of the related trust; and 
  
 (m) additional Restricted Payments pursuant to this clause (m) in an
aggregate amount not to exceed 5.0% of Consolidated Assets of the Company as of the end of the Company’s most recently completed fiscal quarter for which internal financial statements are available at the time of such Restricted Payment (with
each such Restricted Payment being valued as of the date made and without regard to subsequent changes in value). 
  
 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 4.01 will be
determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith, whose determination with respect thereto will be conclusive. 
  
 Section 4.02. Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries. The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly 
  

 26 

 
or indirectly, create or permit to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to:

  
 (a) 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;

  
 (b) make loans or advances to the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries; or 
  
 (c) transfer any of its properties
or assets to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries. 
  
 However, the preceding restrictions will not apply to encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of: 
  
 (a) agreements governing Existing Indebtedness and Credit Facilities as in effect on the Issue Date and any amendments, modifications, restatements,
renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of those agreements, provided that the amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacement or refinancings are not
materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions than those contained in those agreements on the Issue Date or in the Credit Agreement; 
  
 (b) the Indenture, the Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees; 
  
 (c) applicable law; 
  
 (d) 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 the Indenture to be incurred; 
  
 (e) customary non-assignment provisions in leases entered into in the ordinary course of business; 
  
 (f) purchase money obligations for property acquired in the ordinary course of business that impose restrictions on that property of the nature described
in clause (c) of the preceding paragraph; 
  
 (g) any agreement
for the sale or other disposition of a Restricted Subsidiary or any assets thereof that restricts distributions by that Restricted Subsidiary pending the sale or other disposition; 
  
 (h) Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness, provided that the restrictions contained in the agreements governing such
Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness are not 
  

 27 

 
materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in the agreements governing the Indebtedness being refinanced; 
  
 (i) Liens securing Indebtedness otherwise permitted to be incurred under
Section 4.06 hereof that limit the right of the debtor to dispose of the assets subject to such Liens; 
  
 (j) provisions with respect to the disposition or distribution of assets or property in joint venture agreements, asset sale agreements, stock sale
agreements and other similar agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business; 
  
 (k) restrictions imposed in connection with a financing transaction involving a sale or other disposition of accounts receivable and related assets (including, without limitation, in connection with a securitization
or similar financing) or in connection with a financing involving a subsidiary trust or similar financing vehicle that is permitted by Section 4.03 hereof, provided, that such restrictions do not materially adversely affect the Company’s
ability to pay interest and principal on the Notes when due; and 
  
 (l) restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by customers under contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business or imposed by governmental agencies or authorities. 
  
 Section 4.03. Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred
Stock. The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect
to (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), and the Company shall not issue any Disqualified Stock and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to issue any shares of preferred stock; provided,
however, that the Company and any Restricted Subsidiary may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) and the Company may issue Disqualified Stock and any Restricted Subsidiary may issue preferred stock (including Disqualified 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 preferred stock is issued 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 preferred stock had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such four-quarter period. 
  
 The first paragraph of this Section 4.03 will not prohibit the following (collectively, “Permitted Debt”): 
  
 (a) the incurrence by the Company and 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 (a) (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 $1.25 billion; 
  
 (b) Existing Indebtedness; 
  
 (c) the incurrence by the Company and the Guarantors of Indebtedness represented by the Notes and the related Subsidiary Guarantees to be issued on the
Issue Date; 
  

 28 

 (d) 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 construction or improvement of property, plant or equipment used in
the business of the Company or such Subsidiary, in an aggregate principal amount, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to refund, refinance or replace any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (d), not to exceed $40.0
million at any time outstanding; 
  
 (e) 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 refund, refinance or replace Indebtedness (other than intercompany Indebtedness) that was permitted by the
Indenture to be incurred under the first paragraph of this Section 4.03 or clauses (b), (c), (d), (j), (m), (n) or this clause (e) of this paragraph; 
  
 (f) 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 (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 and (ii) any sale or
other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person that is not either the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, 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 (f); 
  
 (g) the
incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Hedging Obligations that are incurred for the purpose of fixing or hedging (i) interest rate risk with respect to any Indebtedness that is permitted by the terms of the Indenture to
be outstanding or (ii) exchange rate risk with respect to obligations under any agreement or Indebtedness, or with respect to any asset, of such Person that is payable or denominated in a currency other than U.S. Dollars; 
  
 (h) the Guarantee by the Company or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries of
Indebtedness of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary that was permitted to be incurred by another provision of this Section 4.03; 
  
 (i) 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, and the payment of dividends on preferred stock (including Disqualified Stock) in the form of additional shares of the same class of preferred stock (including Disqualified Stock) will not be deemed to be
an incurrence of Indebtedness or an issuance of preferred stock (including Disqualified Stock) for purposes of this Section 4.03; provided, in each such case, that the amount thereof is included in Fixed Charges of the Company as accrued;

  
 (j) the issuance of Convertible Subordinated Debentures and/or
the issuance of Convertible Preferred Stock in an aggregate principal amount (with the liquidation value of the Convertible Preferred Stock being treated as its principal amount for this purpose) not to exceed $500.0 million at any one time
outstanding pursuant to this clause (j), plus the issuance of any related securities issued by a subsidiary trust or similar financing vehicle in connection therewith; 
  

 29 

 (k) Indebtedness of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary consisting of guarantees, indemnities, hold
backs or obligations in respect of purchase price adjustments in connection with the acquisition or disposition of assets, including, without limitation, shares of Capital Stock of Restricted Subsidiaries, or contingent payment obligations incurred
in connection with the acquisition or disposition of assets which are contingent on the performance of the assets acquired or disposed of; 
  
 (l) Indebtedness represented by (i) letters of credit for the account of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary or (ii) other obligations to reimburse
third parties pursuant to any surety bond or other similar arrangements, to the extent that such letters of credit and other obligations, as the case may be, are intended to provide security for workers’ compensation claims, payment obligations
in connection with self-insurance, in connection with participation in government reimbursement or other programs or other similar requirements in the ordinary course of business; 
  
 (m) the incurrence by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness to the extent the proceeds thereof are used
to purchase Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer; and 
  
 (n) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of additional Indebtedness (which may include, but is not limited to, Indebtedness of the types referred to in the foregoing clauses (a) through (m)) in an aggregate
principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) at any time outstanding, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to refund, refinance or replace any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (n), not to exceed $100.0
million. 
  
 For purposes of determining compliance with this
Section 4.03, 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 (a) through (n) above, or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to the first paragraph of
this Section 4.03, the Company will be permitted to classify and reclassify such item of Indebtedness in any manner that complies with this Section 4.03. Indebtedness under Credit Facilities outstanding on the date on which Notes are first issued
and authenticated hereunder will be deemed to have been incurred on such date in reliance on the exception provided by clause (a) of the definition of Permitted Debt. 
  
 Section 4.04. Asset Sales. The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries to,
consummate an Asset Sale unless: 
  
 (a) 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; 
  
 (b) the fair market value is determined by the Company’s Board of
Directors and evidenced by a resolution of the Board of Directors; and 
  
 (c) at least 70% of the consideration received in the Asset Sale by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash, Cash Equivalents and/or Replacement Assets. For purposes of this provision, each of the following will be
deemed to be cash: 
  
 (i) any liabilities, as
shown on the Company’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet, of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary 
  

 30 

 
(other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Subsidiary Guarantee) that are assumed by the
transferee of any such assets and from which the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary is released from further liability; and 
  
 (ii) any securities, notes or other obligations received by the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are
converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash within 60 days of receipt, to the extent of the cash received in that conversion. 
  
 Within 360 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, the Company may apply those Net Proceeds at its option: 
  
 (a) to repay Senior Debt; 
  
 (b) to acquire all or substantially all of the assets of, or a majority of
the Voting Stock of, another Permitted Business; 
  
 (c) to make a
capital expenditure; 
  
 (d) to acquire Replacement Assets; or

  
 (e) to acquire other long-term assets that are used or useful
in a Permitted Business. 
  
 Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds,
the Company may temporarily invest the Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited hereunder. 
  
 Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in the preceding paragraph will constitute “Excess
Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $25.0 million, the Company shall make an offer ( 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 herein with respect to offers to purchase or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets 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 principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase, and will 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 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 will 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 Section 3.03 hereof or this Section 4.04, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have
breached its obligations under Section 3.03 hereof or this Section 4.04, by virtue of such conflict. 
  

 31 

 Section 4.05. Transactions with Affiliates. The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement,
understanding, loan, advance or Guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate (each, an “Affiliate Transaction”), unless: 
  
 (a) 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 
  
 (b) the Company delivers to the Trustee: 
  
 (i) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of
$10.0 million, a resolution of the Company’s Board of Directors set forth in an officers’ certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with this Section 4.05 and that such Affiliate Transaction has been approved by a
majority of the disinterested members of the Company’s Board of Directors; and 
  
 (ii) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of
$25.0 million, an opinion as to the fairness to the Holders of such Affiliate Transaction from a financial point of view issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing in the United States. 
  
 The following items will not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and,
therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of the prior paragraph: 
  
 (a) directors’ fees, indemnification and similar arrangements, consulting fees, employee salaries, bonuses or employment agreements, compensation, retirement, disability, severance or employee benefit
arrangements and incentive arrangements with, and loans and advances to, any officer, director or employee in the ordinary course of business; 
  
 (b) performance of all agreements in existence on the Issue Date and any modification thereto or any transaction contemplated thereby in any replacement
agreement therefor so long as such modification or replacement is not materially more disadvantageous to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries than the original agreement in effect on the Issue Date; 
  
 (c) transactions in connection with a financing transaction involving a sale
or other disposition of accounts receivable and related assets (including, without limitation, in connection with a securitization or similar financing) or in connection with a financing involving a subsidiary trust or similar financing vehicle that
is permitted by Section 4.03 hereof; 
  
 (d) transactions in the
ordinary course of business with any joint venture that is otherwise permitted by the Indenture; provided, that such joint venture is between or among the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries on the one hand and third parties that are not
otherwise Affiliates of the Company on the other hand; 
  

 32 

 (e) transactions between or among the Company and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries; 
  
 (f) transactions with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary) that
is an Affiliate of the Company solely because the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary owns an Equity Interest in, or controls, such Person; 
  
 (g) sales of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) to Affiliates of the Company; and 
  
 (h) Restricted Payments that are permitted by Section 4.01 hereof.

  
 Section 4.06. Liens. The Company shall not, and shall
not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien of any kind securing pari passu or subordinated Indebtedness, or trade payables on any asset now owned or hereafter
acquired, except Permitted Liens, unless (a) in the case of any Lien securing pari passu Indebtedness, the Notes are secured by a Lien that is senior in priority to or pari passu with such Lien and (b) in the case of any Lien securing
subordinated Indebtedness, the Notes are secured by a Lien that is senior in priority to such Lien. 
  
 Section 4.07. Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control. If a Change of Control occurs, each Holder of Notes will have the right to require the
Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000) of that Holder’s Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer on the terms set forth herein. In the Change of Control Offer, the Company will offer a
Change of Control Payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased, to the date of purchase. Within 30 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 offering to repurchase Notes on the Change of Control Payment Date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier
than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed, pursuant to the procedures required hereby and described in such notice. The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (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 Change of Control provisions hereof, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have
breached its obligations under this Section 4.07 by virtue of such conflict. 
  
 On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful: 
  
 (a) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; 
  
 (b) 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 
  
 (c) 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. 
  

 33 

 The Paying Agent will promptly mail 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; provided
that each new Note will be in a principal amount of $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000. 
  
 Prior to complying with any of the provisions of this Section 4.07, but in any event within 90 days following a Change of Control, the Company will either repay all outstanding Senior Debt or obtain the requisite
consents, if any, under all agreements governing outstanding Senior Debt to permit the repurchase of Notes required by this Section 4.07. 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. 
  
 Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Section 4.07, the Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance
with the requirements set forth in this Section 4.07 and all other provisions of the Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer.

  
 Section 4.08. No Senior Subordinated Debt. The Company
shall not incur, create, issue, assume, Guarantee or otherwise become liable for any Indebtedness that is subordinate or junior in right of payment to any Senior Debt of the Company and senior in any respect in right of payment to the Notes. No
Guarantor will incur, create, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become liable for any Indebtedness that is subordinate or junior in right of payment to the Senior Debt of such Guarantor and senior in any respect in right of payment to such
Guarantor’s Subsidiary Guarantee. 
  
 Section 4.09.
Additional Subsidiary Guarantees. If the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries acquires or creates another Domestic Subsidiary after the Issue Date, then that newly acquired or created Domestic Subsidiary (other than an Excluded
Subsidiary) will become a Guarantor and execute a supplemental indenture and deliver an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Trustee within 10 business days after the end of the fiscal quarter in which it was acquired or created. 
  
 Section 4.10. 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 so designated will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and will reduce the amount available for
Restricted Payments under the first paragraph of Section 4.01 or 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 re-designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if the redesignation would not cause a Default. 
  
 Section 4.11. Covenant Removal. From and after the first date on which
both (a) the Notes are rated Investment Grade by each of Moody’s Investor Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) and Standard & Poor’s Ratings Group (“S&P”) and (b) there shall not exist a Default or Event
of Default under the indenture (a “Rating Event”), the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries will no longer be subject to Sections 4.01, 4.02, 4.03 (including the application of such Section 4.03 to the designation of an
Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary), 4.04, 4.05, 4.09, and clause (d) of the first paragraph 
  

 34 

 
of Section 5.01 hereof. Upon the occurrence of a Rating Event, the Subsidiary Guarantees of each of the Guarantors will be automatically released.

  
 In addition, at no time after a Rating Event will the
provisions and covenants contained herein at the time of issuance of the Notes that cease to be applicable after the Rating Event be reinstated. 
  
 In the event Moody’s or S&P is no longer in existence or issuing ratings, such organization may be replaced by a nationally recognized
statistical rating organization (as defined in Rule 436 under the Securities Act) designated by the Company with notice to the Trustee and the foregoing provisions will apply to the rating issued by the replacement rating agency. 
  
 ARTICLE V

Assets. The Company shall not, directly or indirectly: (1) consolidate or merge with or into another Person (whether or not the Company is the surviving corporation); or (2) sell, assign, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of all or
substantially all of the properties or assets of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole, in one or more related transactions, to another Person; unless:

District of Columbia; 
  
 (b) 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 and the Indenture pursuant
to agreements reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee; 
  
 (c)
immediately after such transaction, on a pro forma basis giving effect to such transaction or series of transactions (and treating any obligation of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary incurred in connection with or as a result of such
transaction or series of transactions as having been incurred at the time of such transaction), no Default or Event of Default exists; and 
  
 (d) 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, will, 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

 In addition, the Company may not, directly or indirectly, lease all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the

between or among the Company and any of the Guarantors. 
  
 Section 5.02. Successor Corporation Substituted. Upon any consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Company
and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.01 hereof, the successor Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is merged or to which such sale, assignment, transfer,
conveyance or other disposition is made, shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under the Indenture with the same effect as if such successor had been named as the Company therein. When a
successor assumes all the obligations of its predecessor under the Indenture and the Notes following a consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, transfer or other disposition of 90% or more of the assets of the
predecessor in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the predecessor shall be released from those obligations.

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 exists as of the Issue Date, or is created after the date of the Issue Date, if
that default: 
  

 36 

 (i) is caused by a failure to pay principal of, or interest or premium, if any, 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 
  

(ii) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity,

may on behalf of all of the Holders rescind an acceleration and its consequences if all existing Events of Default (except nonpayment of principal, interest or premium that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or
waived.

 (f) the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the deposit was not

 ARTICLE X 
  
 SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES 
  
 Section 10.01. Subsidiary Guarantees. The Notes shall be guaranteed by each of the Guarantors (each a “Subsidiary Guarantee”) in
accordance with the provisions of Article 12 of the Base Indenture and the provisions of this Article X. 
  
 Section 10.02. Subsidiary Guarantors May Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms. A Guarantor may not sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially
all of its assets to, or consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving Person), another Person, other than the Company or another Guarantor, unless: 
  
 (a) immediately after giving effect to that transaction, no
Default or Event of Default exists; and 
  
 (b)
subject to the provisions of Section 10.03 hereof, the Person acquiring the property in any such sale or disposition or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger assumes all the obligations of that Guarantor under the
Indenture and its Subsidiary Guarantee pursuant to a supplemental indenture satisfactory to the Trustee. 
  
 In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance and upon the assumption by the successor Person, by supplemental indenture, executed and
delivered to the Trustee and 
  

 40 

 
satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the Subsidiary Guarantee and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of the Indenture
to be performed by the Guarantor, such successor Person shall succeed to and be substituted for the Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named herein as a Guarantor. All the Subsidiary Guarantees so issued shall in all respects have the
same legal rank and benefit under the Indenture as the Subsidiary Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Subsidiary Guarantees had been issued at the date of the execution
hereof. 
  
 Except as set forth in Articles IV and V hereof, and
notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, nothing contained in the Indenture or in any of the Notes shall prevent any consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into the Company or another Guarantor, or shall prevent any sale or conveyance of
the property of a Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the Company or another Guarantor. 
  
 Section 10.03. Releases. The Subsidiary Guarantee of a Guarantor will be released, and any Person acquiring assets (including by way of merger or
consolidation) or Capital Stock of a Guarantor shall not be required to assume the obligations of any such Guarantor: 
  
 (a) in connection with any sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of that Guarantor (including by way of
merger or consolidation) to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) a Restricted Subsidiary, if the sale complies with Sections 3.03 and 4.04 hereof; 
  
 (b) in connection with any sale of all of the Capital Stock
of a Guarantor to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) a Restricted Subsidiary, if the sale complies with Sections 3.03 and 4.04 hereof; 
  
 (c) if the Company designates any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary
or an Excluded Subsidiary in accordance with the requirements hereof; 
  
 (d) if any Guarantor is otherwise no longer obligated to provide a Subsidiary Guarantee pursuant to this Indenture; or 
  
 (e) if such Guarantor’s guarantee of any obligations under the Credit Agreement, or if the Credit Agreement is no longer outstanding,
any other Indebtedness of the Company, is fully and unconditionally released, except that such Guarantor shall subsequently be required to become a Guarantor by executing a supplemental indenture and providing the Trustee with an Officers’
Certificate and Opinion of Counsel at such time as it guarantees any obligations under the Credit Agreement, or if the Credit Agreement is no longer outstanding, any other Indebtedness of the Company. 
  
 ARTICLE XI 
  
 SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE 
  
 Section 11.01. Applicability of Certain Provisions. The Notes shall be
subject to Article 13 of the Base Indenture, except that Section 13.01 of the Base Indenture shall be amended to add the following provisions after paragraph (c) thereof: 
  

 41 

 “(d) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of the deposit or
will occur as a result of the 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 or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Company or any Guarantor is
bound; and 
  
 (e) the Company has delivered irrevocable
instructions to the Trustee under the Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at maturity or the redemption date, as the case may be.” 
  
 ARTICLE XII 
  
 MISCELLANEOUS 
  
 Section 12.01. Scope of this First Supplemental Indenture. The changes, modifications and supplements to the Indenture effected by this First
Supplemental Indenture shall only be applicable with respect to, and govern the terms of, the Notes and shall not apply to any other Securities that may be issued by the Company under the Indenture. 
  
 Section 12.02. Ratification of Indenture. The Indenture, as
supplemented by this First Supplemental Indenture, is in all respects ratified and confirmed, and this First Supplemental Indenture shall be deemed part of the Indenture in the manner and to the extent herein and therein provided. 
  
 Section 12.03. Trustee Not Responsible for Recitals. The recitals
therein contained are made by the Company and not by the Trustee, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness thereof. The Trustee makes no representation as to the validity or sufficiency of this First Supplemental Indenture.

  
 Section 12.04. Separability. In case any one or more of
the provisions contained in this First Supplemental Indenture or in the Notes shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions
of this First Supplemental Indenture or of the Notes, but this First Supplemental Indenture and the Notes shall be construed as if such invalid or illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein or therein. 
  
 Section 12.05. Counterparts. This First Supplemental Indenture may be
executed in any number of counterparts each of which shall be an original; but such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. 
  
 Section 12.06. GOVERNING LAW. THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THIS FIRST SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE AND
THE NOTES, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICT OF LAW TO THE EXTENT THAT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY. 
  

 42 

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

 6 1/8% Senior Subordinated Notes Due 2013 
  
 Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated. 
  
 1. Interest. 
  
 Omnicare, Inc., a Delaware corporation (herein the “Company” which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture hereinafter referred
to), for value received, hereby promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate per annum shown above from June 13, 2003 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for
semiannually on June 1 and December 1 in each year, commencing December 1, 2003, and at the Stated Maturity thereof, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment and on any Defaulted Interest to the extent permitted by law.
Interest shall 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 on each June 1 and December 1 to the Persons who are registered Holders of the relevant Notes at the close of business on the May 15 or November 15 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes
are cancelled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.14 of the Base Indenture with respect to Defaulted Interest. The Notes will be payable as to principal, premium, 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; provided, however, that at the option of the Company payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the address of the Person
entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the list provided by the Company to the Registrar and provided, further, that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of, premium if any and
interest on all Global Securities and all other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided wire transfer instructions to the Company or the Paying Agent. Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the
time of payment is legal tender for payment of private debts. 
  
 3. Paying Agent and Registrar. 
  
 Initially, the Trustee
under the Indenture will act as Paying agent and Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity. 
  
 4. Indenture. 
  
 This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of notes of the Company issued and issuable in one or more series under an
Indenture, dated as of June 13, 2003 (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of June 13, 2003 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and together with the Base Indenture, the
“Indenture”), between the Company and SunTrust Bank, as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee” which term includes any successor Trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is
hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustees and the Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and
delivered. All Notes issued under the Indenture will be treated as a single class of 
  

 A-2 

 
securities under the Indenture. The terms of the Notes include those stated in this Indenture and those made a part of this Indenture by reference to the
Trust Indenture act of 1939, as amended (15 U.S. Code §§ 77aaa-77bbbb). The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to this Indenture and such Act for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this
security conflicts with the express provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling. 
  
 5. Optional Redemption. 
  
 At any time prior to June 1, 2006, the Company may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under
the First Supplemental Indenture at a redemption price of 106.125% of the principal amount, plus accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption Date, with the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings; provided that: 
  
 (a) at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under this
First Supplemental Indenture remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption (excluding Notes held by the Company and its Subsidiaries); and 
  
 (b) the redemption occurs within 60 days of the date of the closing of such Equity Offering. 
  
 At any time prior to June 1, 2008, the Company may redeem all but not part of
the Notes, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the Applicable Redemption Premium and accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. 
  
 On or after June 1, 2008, the Company may 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, if any on the Notes redeemed, to the applicable redemption date, if
redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on June 1 of the years indicated below: 
  

	 Year

	 2011 and thereafter
	  	100.000	%

  
 6. Mandatory
Redemption. 
  
 Except as set forth in paragraph 7 below, the
Company shall not be required to make mandatory redemption payments with respect to the Notes. 
  
 7. Repurchase at Option of Holder 
  
 If there is a Change of Control, the Company shall be required to make an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) to repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof) of each Holder’s Notes at a
purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages thereon, if any, to the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days following any Change
of Control, the Company shall mail a notice 

  

 A-3 

 
to each Holder setting forth the procedures governing the Change of Control Offer as required by this Indenture. 
  
 If the Company or a Subsidiary consummates any Asset Sales, within thirty
days of each date on which the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $25 million, the Company shall commence an offer to all Holders of Notes (an “Asset Sale Offer) pursuant to Section 3.03 of the First Supplemental Indenture to purchase
the maximum principal amount of Notes that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date fixed for the closing of
such offer, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture. To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Company (or such Subsidiary) may use such
deficiency for general corporate purposes. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by Holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes 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” on the reverse of the Notes. 
  
 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. 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. On and after the redemption date interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption. 
  
 9. Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. 
  
 As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Notes of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal
amount of Notes of this series and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. A holder may register the transfer or exchange of the Security as provided in the Indenture and subject to
certain limitations therein set forth. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and 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 Note 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. 
  
 10. Persons Deemed Owners. 
  
 The registered Holder of a Security may be treated as its owner for all purposes. 
  
 11. Amendment, Supplement and Waiver. 
  
 Subject to certain exceptions, this Indenture and the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders
of at least a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of each series affected by such amendment or supplement and any existing default or compliance with any provision may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of each series affected by such waiver. Without the consent of any

or disaffirm its obligations under such Guarantor’s Subsidiary Guarantee. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes
to be due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency involving the Company, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable without further action or
notice. Holders may not enforce this Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in 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) if it determines that withholding notice
is in their interest. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences
under this Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest on, or the principal of, the Notes. The Company is required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with this 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. 
  

 A-5 

 14. No Recourse Against Others. 
  
 A director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder, of the Company, as such, shall not have any liability for any
obligations of the Company or the Guarantors under the Notes or this Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Security waives and releases all such liability.
The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes. 
  
 15. Guarantees. 
  
 The payment by
the Company of the principal of and interest on the Security is fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by each of the Guarantors on the terms set forth in the Indenture. The Subsidiary Guarantees will be subordinated in

 EXHIBIT B 
  
 FORM OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE TO BE DELIVERED BY SUBSEQUENT GUARANTORS 
  
 Supplemental Indenture (this “Supplemental Indenture”), dated as of
            , among                      (the
“Guaranteeing Subsidiary”), a subsidiary of Omnicare, Inc. (or its permitted successor), a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), the Company and SunTrust Bank, as trustee under this 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 “Base Indenture”), dated as of June 13, 2003, as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of June 13, 2003 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the
Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), providing for the issuance of 6 1/8% Senior Subordinated Notes
due 2013 (the “Notes”); 
  
 WHEREAS, this
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 Base 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 as follows: 
  
 (a) Along with all Guarantors named in the Indenture, to jointly and severally Guarantee to each Holder of a Note authenticated and
delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, the Notes or the obligations of the Company hereunder or thereunder, that: 
  
 (i) the principal of and interest on the Notes will be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption
or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Company to the Holders or the 

  

 B-1 

 
Trustee hereunder or thereunder will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and 
  
 (ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal
of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. Failing payment when due
of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. 
  
 (b) The obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or
enforceability of the Notes or the Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any
action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. 
  
 (c) The following is hereby waived: diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or
bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever. 
  
 (d) This Note Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and the
Indenture, and the Guaranteeing Subsidiary accepts all obligations of a Guarantor under this Indenture. 
  
 (e) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, the Guarantors, or any Custodian,
Trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or the Guarantors, any amount paid by either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Note Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full
force and effect. 
  
 (f) The Guaranteeing
Subsidiary shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. 
  
 (g) As between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the
Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article VI of the First Supplemental Indenture for the purposes of this Note Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay,
injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such 

  

 B-2 

 
obligations as provided in Article VI of the First Supplemental Indenture, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and
payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Note Guarantee. 
  
 (h) The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Guarantee. 
  
 (i) Pursuant to Section 12.04 of the Base Indenture, after
giving effect to any maximum amount and any other contingent and fixed liabilities that are relevant under any applicable Bankruptcy or fraudulent conveyance laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from
or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under Article 12 of the Base Indenture, this new Note Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum amount permissible such that the
obligations of such Guarantor under this Note Guarantee will not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. 
  
 3. Execution and Delivery. Each Guaranteeing Subsidiary agrees that the Note Guarantees shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any
failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Note Guarantee. 
  
 4. Guaranteeing Subsidiary may Consolidate, etc. on Certain Terms. 
  
 A Guarantor may not sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets to, or consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving Person), another Person, other than
the Company or another Guarantor, unless: 
  
 (a)
immediately after giving effect to that transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists; and 
  
 (b) subject to the provisions of Section 10.03 of the First Supplemental Indenture, the Person acquiring the property in any such sale or
disposition or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger assumes all the obligations of that Guarantor under the Indenture and its Subsidiary Guarantee pursuant to a supplemental indenture satisfactory to the Trustee.

  
 In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance
and upon the assumption by the successor corporation, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this
Indenture to be performed by the Guarantor, such successor corporation shall succeed to and be substituted for the Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named herein as a Guarantor. All the Subsidiary Guarantees so issued shall in all
respects have the same legal rank and benefit under the Indenture as the Subsidiary Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of the Indenture as though all of such Subsidiary Guarantees had been issued at the date of
the execution hereof. 
  
 Except as set forth in Article V of the
First Supplemental Indenture, and notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, nothing contained in this Indenture or in any of the 

  

 B-3 

 
Notes shall prevent any consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into the Company or another Guarantor, or shall prevent any sale or conveyance of the
property of a Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the Company or another Guarantor. 
  
 5. Releases. 
  
 The Note Guarantee of a Guarantor will be released, and any Person acquiring assets (including by way of merger or consolidation) or Capital Stock of a
Guarantor shall not be required to assume the obligations of any such Guarantor: 
  
 (a) in connection with any sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of that Guarantor (including by way of
merger or consolidation) to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) a Restricted Subsidiary, if the sale or other disposition complies with Sections 3.03 and 4.04 of the First Supplemental Indenture;

  
 (b) in connection with any sale of all of the
Capital Stock of a Guarantor to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) a Restricted Subsidiary, if the sale complies with Sections 3.03 and 4.04 of the First Supplemental Indenture; 
  
 (c) if the Company designates any Restricted Subsidiary that
is a Guarantor to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary or an Excluded Subsidiary in accordance with the Indenture; 
  
 (d) if any Guarantor is otherwise no longer obligated to provide a Subsidiary Guarantee pursuant to the Indenture; or 
  
 (e) if such Guarantor’s guarantee of any obligations
under the Credit Agreement, or if the Credit Agreement is no longer outstanding, any other Indebtedness of the Company, is fully and unconditionally released, except that such Guarantor shall subsequently be required to become a Guarantor by
executing a supplemental indenture and providing the Trustee with an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel at such time as it guarantees any obligations under the Credit Agreement, or if the Credit Agreement is no longer outstanding, any
other Indebtedness of the Company. 
  
 Any Guarantor not released
from its obligations under its Note Guarantee shall remain liable for the full amount of principal of and interest on the Notes and for the other obligations of any Guarantor under the Indenture as provided in Article 12 of the Base Indenture and
Article X of the First Supplemental Indenture. 
  
 6. 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 Guarantor under the
Notes, any Subsidiary 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 

  

 B-4 

 
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.

  
 7. NEW YORK LAW TO GOVERN. THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE
STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THIS SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE BUT 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. 
  
 8. 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. 
  
 9. Effect of Headings. The Section headings herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof. 
  
 10. 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. 
  

 B-5
