      amendments set forth below will become effective upon the execution and delivery
      of this Ninth Supplemental Indenture by the Company, the Trustee and the
      Subsidiary Guarantors signatory hereto.

     

    (b)  The

      Tangible Assets.”

      in joint ventures or Unrestricted Subsidiaries having an aggregate fair market
      value (with the fair market value of each Investment being measured at the
      time
      made and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value), taken together
      with all other Investments made pursuant to this clause (vii) that are at the
      time outstanding, net of any amounts paid to the Company or any Restricted

    Section
      2.  Amendments
      to the Indenture.

     

    (a)  The
      amendments set forth below will become effective upon the execution and delivery
      of this Third Supplemental Indenture by the Company, the Trustee and the
      Subsidiary Guarantors signatory hereto.

     

    (b)  The
      Indenture is hereby amended such that, on and prior to May 15, 2008, any
      failure by the Company to file any SEC Reports by the applicable SEC filing
      deadlines or to deliver any SEC Reports to the Trustee or the Holders shall
      not
      constitute a Default or Event of Default.

     

            “SEC
      Filing
      Deadlines” means the applicable deadline under the Exchange Act (including any
      permitted extensions) on or prior to which the Company is required to file

      SEC Report under the Exchange Act.

     

            “SEC
      Reports” means
      any reports or other information the Company would be required to file with
      the
      Commission under Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act or any report or
      other information required pursuant to Section 314 of the TIA or any related
      notices or reports.

     

    Section
      3.  Ratification
      of Indenture; Supplemental Indenture Part of Indenture.  The
      Original Indenture, as heretofore supplemented and amended by the First
      Supplemental Indenture, the Second Supplemental Indenture, and this Third
      Supplemental Indenture, is in all respects ratified and confirmed, and the
      Original Indenture, the First Supplemental Indenture, the Second Supplemental
      Indenture, and this Third Supplemental Indenture and all indentures supplemental
      thereto shall be read, taken and construed as one and the same
      instrument.

     

    Section
      4.  Governing
      Law.  This Third Supplemental Indenture shall be governed by, and
      construed in accordance with, the laws of the state of New York, 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.

      parties may sign any number of copies of this Third Supplemental
      Indenture.  Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them
      together represent the same agreement.

      7.  Effect
      of Headings.  The section headings herein are for convenience
      only and shall not effect the construction thereof.

      8.  Successors
      and Assigns.  All covenants and agreements in this Third
      Supplemental Indenture by the Company shall bind its successors and assigns,
      whether so expressed or not.

     

    Section
      9.  Separability
      Clause.  In case any provision in this Third Supplemental
      Indenture shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality
      and
      enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected
      or
