“Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio” means, with respect to
any Person for any period, the ratio of EBITDA of such Person for such period
to the Fixed Charges of such Person for such period. In the event that the
Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries incurs, assumes, guarantees or
redeems any Indebtedness or issues or redeems Disqualified Stock or preferred
stock subsequent to the commencement of the period for which the Fixed Charge Coverage
Ratio is being calculated but prior to the event for which the calculation of
the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is made (the “Calculation
Date”), then the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be calculated
giving pro forma effect to such incurrence, assumption, guarantee or redemption
of Indebtedness, or such issuance or redemption of Disqualified Stock or
preferred stock, as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable
four-quarter period.

 

For purposes of making the computation referred to
above, Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, consolidations and
discontinued operations (as determined in accordance with GAAP) that have been
made by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries during the
four-quarter reference period or subsequent to such reference period and on or
prior to or simultaneously with the Calculation Date shall be calculated on a
pro forma basis assuming that all such Investments, acquisitions, dispositions,
mergers, consolidations and discontinued operations (and the reduction of any
associated fixed charge obligations and the change in EBITDA resulting
therefrom) had occurred on the first day of the four-quarter reference period; provided that the pro forma change in EBITDA projected by
the Company in good faith as a result of reasonably identifiable and factually
supportable cost savings and costs (excluding one-time transition, transaction
and restructuring costs), as the case may be, expected to be realized during
the consecutive four-quarter period commencing after such acquisition or
transaction (the “Savings Period”)
shall be included in such calculation for any reference period that includes
any of the Savings Period; provided,
further, that any such pro forma change to such EBITDA shall be
without duplication for cost savings and costs (excluding one-time transition,
transaction and restructuring costs) actually realized and already included in
such EBITDA. If since the beginning of such period any Person (that
subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged with or into the
Company or any Restricted Subsidiary since the beginning of such period) shall
have made any Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, consolidation or
discontinued operation that would have required adjustment pursuant to this
definition, then the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro
forma effect thereto for such period as if such Investment, acquisition,
disposition, merger, consolidation or discontinued operation had occurred at
the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period.

 

For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma
effect is to be given to a transaction, the pro forma calculations shall be
made in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the
Company. If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is 

 

13

 

being given pro forma effect, the interest on such
Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the Calculation
Date had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account
any Hedging Obligations applicable to such Indebtedness). Interest on a
Capitalized Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate
reasonably determined by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the
Company to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capitalized Lease
Obligation in accordance with GAAP. For purposes of making the computation
referred to above, interest on any Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility
computed on a pro forma basis shall be computed based upon the average daily
balance of such Indebtedness during the applicable period. Interest on
Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a
factor of a prime or similar rate, a eurocurrency interbank offered rate, or
other rate, shall be deemed to have been based upon the rate actually chosen,
or, if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as the Company may
designate.

 

“Fixed Charges” means, with respect to any Person
for any period, the sum of

 

(a) Consolidated Interest Expense of such Person for

Where any Person is required to make, give or execute
two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements,
opinions or other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be
consolidated and form one instrument.

 

SECTION
104.                                            ACTS
OF HOLDERS.

 

(a)           Any request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture
to be given or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more
instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or
by agents duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly
provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or
instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly
required, to the Company. Such instrument or instruments (and the action
embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the
“Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution
of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be
sufficient for 

 

32

 

any purpose of this Indenture and
conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company, if made in the manner
provided in this Section 104.

 

(b)           The fact and date of the
execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the
affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a notary public
or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying
that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the
execution thereof. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity
other than his individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also
constitute sufficient proof of authority. The fact and date of the execution of
any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the
same, may also be proved in any other manner that the Trustee deems sufficient.

 

(c)           The principal amount and serial
numbers of Notes held by any Person, and the date of holding the same, shall be
proved by the Note Register.

 

(d)           If the Company shall solicit
from the Holders any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other Act, the Company may, at its option, by or pursuant to
a Board Resolution, fix in advance a record date for the determination of
Holders entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the Company shall have no obligation
to do so. Notwithstanding TIA Section 316(c), such record date shall be the
record date specified in or pursuant to such Board Resolution, which shall be a
date not earlier than the date 30 days prior to the first solicitation of
Holders generally in connection therewith and not later than the date such
solicitation is completed. If such a record date is fixed, such request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be
given before or after such record date, but only the Holders of record at the
close of business on such record date shall be deemed to be Holders for the
purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of
Outstanding Notes have authorized or agreed or consented to such request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for
that purpose the Outstanding Notes shall be computed as of such record date;
provided that no such authorization, agreement or consent by the Holders on
such record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective
pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later than six months after
the record date.

 

Any request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Note shall bind every
future Holder of the same Note and the Holder of every Note issued upon the
registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof
(including in accordance with Section 306) in respect of anything done, omitted
or suffered to be done by the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Company or any
Guarantor in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made
upon such Note.

 

SECTION
105.                                            NOTICES,
ETC., TO TRUSTEE, THE COMPANY AND ANY GUARANTOR.

 

Any request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other document provided or
permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed
with,

 

33

 

(1)           the Trustee by any Holder or by the Company
or any Guarantor or any other obligor on the Notes shall be sufficient for
every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or delivered in writing
(which may be via facsimile), to or with the Trustee and received at its
Corporate Trust Office, Attention: Corporate Trust Administration, or

 

(2)           the Company or any Guarantor by the Trustee
or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless
otherwise herein expressly provided) if made, given, furnished or delivered, in
writing (which may include via facsimile), or mailed, first-class postage
prepaid, or delivered by recognized overnight courier, to the Company or such
Guarantor addressed to it at the address of its principal office specified in
the first paragraph of this Indenture, or at any other address previously
furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company or such Guarantor.

 

SECTION
106.                                            NOTICE
TO HOLDERS; WAIVER.

 

Where this Indenture provides for notice of any
event to Holders by the Company or the Trustee, such notice shall be sufficiently
given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed,
first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at his
address as it appears in the Note Register, not later than the latest date, and
not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice.
In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to
mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular
Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other
Holders. Any notice mailed to a Holder in the manner herein prescribed shall be
conclusively deemed to have been received by such Holder, whether or not such
Holder actually receives such notice. Where this Indenture provides for notice
in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to
receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be
the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with
the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity
of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

 

In case by reason of the suspension of or
irregularities in regular mail service or by reason of any other cause, it
shall be impracticable to mail notice of any event to Holders when such notice
is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any
manner of giving such notice as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee shall be
deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice for every purpose hereunder.

 

SECTION
107.                                            EFFECT
OF HEADINGS AND TABLE OF CONTENTS.

 

The Article and Section headings herein and the
Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the
construction hereof.

 

SECTION
108.                                            SUCCESSORS
AND ASSIGNS.

 

All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by
the Company shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or
not.  All agreements of the Trustee in
this Indenture shall bind its successors, whether so expressed or not.  All agreements of each Guarantor in this
Indenture shall bind its successors, whether so expressed or not, except as
otherwise provided in Section 1209 hereof.

SECTION
109.                                            SEPARABILITY
CLAUSE.

 

In case any provision in this Indenture or in the
Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and
enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or
impaired thereby.

 

SECTION
110.                                            BENEFITS
OF INDENTURE.

 

Nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes, express
or implied, shall give to any Person, (other than the parties hereto, any Agent
and their successors hereunder and each of the Holders and, with respect to any
provisions hereof relating to the subordination of the Notes or the rights of
holders of Senior Indebtedness, the holders of Senior Indebtedness) any benefit
or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

 

SECTION
111.                                            GOVERNING
LAW.

 

THIS INDENTURE, THE NOTES AND ANY GUARANTEE SHALL BE
GOVERNED AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
UPON THE ISSUANCE OF THE EXCHANGE NOTES OR THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE SHELF
REGISTRATION STATEMENT, THIS INDENTURE SHALL BE SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF
THE TRUST INDENTURE ACT THAT ARE REQUIRED TO BE PART OF THIS INDENTURE AND
SHALL, TO THE EXTENT APPLICABLE, BE GOVERNED BY SUCH PROVISIONS.

 

SECTION
112.                                            LEGAL
HOLIDAYS.

 

In any case where any Interest Payment Date, any
date established for payment of Defaulted Interest pursuant to Section 307 or
Redemption Date or Stated Maturity or Maturity of any Note shall not be a
Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of
the Notes) payment of principal (or premium, if any) or interest need not be made
on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same
force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date or date established
for payment of Defaulted Interest pursuant to Section 307, Redemption Date, or
at the Stated Maturity or Maturity; provided that no interest shall accrue for
the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or date
established for payment of Defaulted Interest pursuant to Section 307, Stated
Maturity or Maturity, as the case may be, to the next succeeding Business Day.

 

SECTION
113.                      NO
PERSONAL LIABILITY OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, OR STOCKHOLDERS.

 

No director, officer, employee, incorporator or
stockholders, as such, of the Company or any Guarantor shall have any liability
for any obligations of the Company or such Guarantor under the Notes, this
Indenture or any Guarantee or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by
reason of, such obligations or their creations. Each Holder by accepting a Note
waives and releases all such liability. Such waiver and release are part of the
consideration for the issuance of the Notes. 
Such waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal
securities laws and it is the view of the Commission that such a waiver is
against public policy.

SECTION
114.                                            COUNTERPARTS.

 

This Indenture may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall be original; but such counterparts shall
together constitute but one and the same instrument.

THE NOTES

 

SECTION
301.                                            TITLE
AND TERMS.

 

The aggregate principal amount of Notes which may be
authenticated and issued under this Indenture is not limited; provided, however that any Additional Notes issued under
this Indenture are issued in accordance with Sections 303 and 1010 hereof, as
part of the same series as the Initial Notes.

 

The Notes shall be known and designated as the “81⁄2%
Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015” of the Company. The Stated Maturity of the
Notes shall be February 1, 2015, and they shall bear interest at the rate of
81⁄2% per annum, which rate may be increased in the event of a Registration
Default pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, from January 31, 2005,
or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid
or duly provided for, payable on August 1, 2005 and semi-annually thereafter on
February 1 and August 1 in each year, until the principal thereof is paid in
full and to the Person in whose name the Note (or any predecessor Note) is
registered at the close of business on the January 15 or July 15 next preceding
such interest payment date. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day
year comprised of twelve 30-day months, until the principal thereof is paid or
duly provided for. Interest on any overdue principal, interest (to the extent
lawful) or premium, if any, shall be payable on demand.

 

36

 

The principal of (and premium, if any) and interest
and Special Interest, if any, on the Notes shall be payable at the office or
agency of the Company maintained for such purpose in The City of New York, or
at such other office or agency of the Company as may be maintained for such
purpose; provided, however, that,
at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be paid by check mailed
to addresses of the Persons entitled thereto as such addresses shall appear on
the Note Register; provided that
all payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest and Special Interest,
if any, with respect to Notes represented by one or more permanent global Notes
registered in the name of or held by the Depositary or its nominee will be made
by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by
the Holders thereof.

 

Holders shall have the right to require the Company
to purchase their Notes, in whole or in part, in the event of a Change of
Control pursuant to Section 1016.

 

The Notes shall be subject to repurchase by the
Company pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer as provided in Section 1017.

 

The Notes shall be redeemable as provided in Article
Eleven and in the Notes.

 

The Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes shall be
subordinated in right of payment to Senior Indebtedness as provided in Article
Fourteen.

 

The due and punctual payment of principal of,
premium, if any, and interest on the Notes payable by the Company is
irrevocably unconditionally guaranteed, to the extent set forth herein, by each
of the Guarantors.

 

SECTION
302.                                            DENOMINATIONS.

 

The Notes shall be issuable only in registered form
without coupons and only in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiples
of $1,000 in excess thereof.

 

SECTION
303.                                            EXECUTION,
AUTHENTICATION, DELIVERY AND DATING.

 

The Notes shall be executed on behalf of the Company
by an Officer. The signature of an Officer on the Notes may be manual or
facsimile signatures of the present or any future such authorized officer and
may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the Notes.

 

Notes bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of
individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall bind
the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased
to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Notes or
did not hold such offices at the date of such Notes.

 

At any time and from time to time after the
execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Notes
executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a
Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Notes, and the
Trustee in accordance with such Company Order shall authenticate and deliver
such Notes.

 

37

 

On the Issuance Date, the Company shall deliver the
Initial Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $275,000,000 executed by the
Company to the Trustee for authentication, directing the Trustee to
authenticate the Initial Notes and certifying that all conditions precedent to
the issuance of Notes contained herein have been fully complied with, and the
Trustee in accordance with such Company Order shall authenticate and deliver
such Initial Notes. At any time and from time to time after the Issuance Date,
the Company may deliver Additional Notes executed by the Company to the Trustee
for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and
delivery of such Additional Notes, directing the Trustee to authenticate the
Additional Notes and certifying that the issuance of such Additional Notes is
in compliance with Article Ten hereof and that all other conditions precedent
to the issuance of Notes contained herein have been fully complied with, and
the Trustee in accordance with such Company Order shall authenticate and
deliver such Additional Notes.  On
Company Order, the Trustee shall authenticate for original issue Exchange Notes
in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $275,000,000 plus the aggregate
amount of any Additional Notes isssued; provided
that such Exchange Notes shall be issuable only upon the valid surrender for
cancellation of Initial Notes and any Additional Notes of a like aggregate principal
amount in accordance with an Exchange Offer pursuant to the Registration Rights
Agreement. In each case, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive an Officers’
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel of the Company that it may reasonably
request in connection with such authentication of Notes. Such Company Order
shall specify the amount of Notes to be authenticated and the date on which the
original issue of Initial Notes, Additional Notes or Exchange Notes is to be
authenticated.

 

Each Note shall be dated the date of its
authentication.

 

No Note shall be entitled to any benefit under this
Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on
such Note 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 Note shall be conclusive evidence, and
the only evidence, that such Note has been duly authenticated and delivered
hereunder and is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

 

In case the Company or any Guarantor, pursuant to
Article Eight, shall be consolidated or merged with or into any other Person or
shall convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of its properties and assets
substantially as an entirety to any Person, and the successor Person resulting
from such consolidation, or surviving such merger, or into which the Company or
such Guarantor shall have been merged, or the Person which shall have received
a conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition as aforesaid, shall have
executed an indenture supplemental hereto with the Trustee pursuant to Article
Eight, any of the Notes authenticated or delivered prior to such consolidation,
merger, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition may, from time to
time, at the request of the successor Person, be exchanged for other Notes
executed in the name of the successor Person with such changes in phraseology
and form as may be appropriate, but otherwise in substance of like tenor as the
Notes surrendered for such exchange and of like principal amount; and the
Trustee, upon Company Request of the successor Person, shall authenticate and
deliver Notes as specified in such request for the purpose of such exchange. If
Notes shall at any time be authenticated and delivered in any new name of a
successor Person pursuant to this Section 303 in exchange or substitution for
or upon registration of transfer of any Notes, such successor Person, at the
option of the Holders but without expense 

 

38

 

to them, shall provide for the exchange of all Notes
at the time Outstanding for Notes authenticated and delivered in such new name.

 

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent
acceptable to the Company to authenticate Notes on behalf of the Trustee.
Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, an authenticating agent may
authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this
Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such
agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as any Note Registrar or
Paying Agent to deal with the Company and its Affiliates.

 

SECTION
304.                                            TEMPORARY
NOTES.

 

Pending the preparation of definitive Notes, the
Company may execute, and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, temporary Notes which are printed, lithographed, typewritten,
mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination,
substantially of the tenor of the definitive Notes in lieu of which they are
issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other
variations as the officers executing such Notes may determine, as conclusively
evidenced by their execution of such Notes.

 

If temporary Notes are issued, the Company will
cause definitive Notes to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the
preparation of definitive Notes, the temporary Notes shall be exchangeable for
definitive Notes upon surrender of the temporary Notes at the office or agency
of the Company designated for such purpose pursuant to Section 1002, without
charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more
temporary Notes, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate
and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Notes of
authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes shall in all
respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive
Notes.

 

SECTION
305.                                            REGISTRATION,
REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE.

 

The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate
Trust Office of the Trustee a register (the register maintained in such office
and in any other office or agency designated pursuant to Section 1002 being
herein sometimes referred to as the “Note Register”) in which, subject to such
reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the
registration of Notes and of transfers of Notes. The Note Register shall be in
written form or any other form capable of being converted into written form
within a reasonable time. At all reasonable times, the Note Register shall be
open to inspection by the Trustee. The Trustee is hereby initially appointed as
security registrar (the Trustee in such capacity, together with any successor
of the Trustee in such capacity, the “Note Registrar”) for the purpose of
registering Notes and transfers of Notes as herein provided.

 

Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any
Note at the office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 1002,
the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in
the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or 

 

39

 

more new Notes of any authorized denomination or
denominations of a like aggregate principal amount.

 

Furthermore, any Holder of a Global Note shall, by
acceptance of such Global Note, agree that transfers of beneficial interest in
such Global Note may be effected only through a book-entry system maintained by
the Holder of such Global Note (or its agent), and that ownership of a
beneficial interest in the Note shall be required to be reflected in a book
entry.

 

At the option of the Holder, Notes may be exchanged
for other Notes of any authorized denomination and of a like aggregate
principal amount, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or
agency. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange (including an
exchange of Initial Notes for Exchange Notes), the Company shall execute, and
the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Notes which the Holder making
the exchange is entitled to receive; provided
that no exchange of Initial Notes for Exchange Notes shall occur until an
Exchange Offer Registration Statement shall have been declared effective by the
Commission, the Trustee shall have received an Officers’ Certificate confirming
that the Exchange Offer Registration Statement has been declared effective by
the Commission and the Initial Notes to be exchanged for the Exchange Notes
shall be cancelled by the Trustee.

 

All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer
or exchange of Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing
the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the
Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

 

Every Note presented or surrendered for registration
of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the Note
Registrar) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer,
in form satisfactory to the Company and the Note Registrar, duly executed by
the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.

 

No service charge shall be made for any registration
of transfer or exchange or redemption of Notes, but the Company may require
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that
may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of
Notes, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 304, 906, 1016, 1017 or 1108,
not involving any transfer.

 

SECTION
306.                                            MUTILATED,
DESTROYED, LOST AND STOLEN NOTES.

 

If (i) any mutilated Note is surrendered to the
Trustee, or (ii) the Company and the Trustee receive evidence to their
satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, and there is
delivered to the Company, any Guarantor and the Trustee such security or
indemnity, in each case, as may be required by them to save each of them
harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company any Guarantor or the
Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company
shall execute and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, in exchange for any such mutilated Note or in lieu of any such
destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a new Note of like tenor and principal amount,
bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

 

40

 

In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or
stolen Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in
its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay such Note.

 

Upon the issuance of any new Note under this
Section, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and
any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) in
connection therewith.

 

Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section in
lieu of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an
original additional contractual obligation of the Company, any Guarantor and
any other obligor upon the Notes, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost
or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be
entitled to all benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any
and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

 

The provisions of this Section are exclusive and
shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with
respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen
Notes.

 

SECTION
307.                                            PAYMENT
OF INTEREST; INTEREST RIGHTS PRESERVED.

 

Interest on any Note 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 such Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes)
is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such
interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose
pursuant to Section 1002; provided, however,
that each installment of interest may at the Company’s option be paid by
mailing a check for such interest, payable to or upon the written order of the
Person entitled thereto pursuant to Section 308, to the address of such Person
as it appears in the Note Register, provided
that all payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to
Notes represented by one or more permanent global Notes registered in the name
of or held by the Depositary or its nominee will be made by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Holders thereof.

 

Any interest on any Note which is payable, but is
not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall
forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the Regular Record Date by
virtue of having been such Holder, and such defaulted interest and (to the
extent lawful) interest on such defaulted interest at the rate borne by the
Notes (such defaulted interest and interest thereon herein collectively called “Defaulted
Interest”) shall be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as
provided in clause (1) or (2) below:

 

(1)           The Company may elect to make payment of any
Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Notes (or their respective
Predecessor Notes) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record
Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the
following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount
of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Note 

 

41

 

and the date (not less than
30 days after such notice) of the proposed payment (the “Special Record Date”),
and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of
money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such
Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for
such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when
deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such
Defaulted Interest as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix
a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be
not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the Special Record
Date and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice
of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such
Special Record Date, and in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall
cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special
Record Date therefor to be given in the manner provided for in Section 106, not
less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed
payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having
been so given, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose
names the Notes (or their respective Predecessor Notes) are registered at the
close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable
pursuant to the following clause (2).

 

(2)           The Company may make payment of any Defaulted
Interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of
any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice
as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to
the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause, such manner of
payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

 

Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section,
each Note delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in
exchange for or in lieu of any other Note shall carry the rights to interest
accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Note.

 

SECTION
308.                                            PERSONS
DEEMED OWNERS.

 

Prior to the due presentment of a Note for
registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the
Company, any Guarantor or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such
Note is registered as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving
payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Sections 305 and
307) interest on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or
not such Note be overdue, and none of the Company, any Guarantor, the Trustee
nor any agent of the Company, any Guarantor or the Trustee shall be affected by
notice to the contrary.

 

SECTION
309.                                            CANCELLATION.

 

All Notes surrendered for payment, redemption,
registration of transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any Person other
than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly cancelled
by it. If the Company shall acquire any of the Notes other than as set forth in
the preceding sentence, the acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or 

 

42

 

satisfaction of the Indebtedness represented by such
Notes unless and until the same are surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation
pursuant to this Section 309. No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in
exchange for any Notes cancelled as provided in this Section, except as
expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Notes held by the Trustee
shall be disposed of by the Trustee in accordance with its customary procedures
unless by Company Order the Company shall direct that cancelled Notes be
returned to it.

 

SECTION
310.                                            COMPUTATION
OF INTEREST.

 

Interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis
of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

 

SECTION
311.                                            CUSIP
NUMBERS.

 

The Company in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP”
numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers (in each case, if then generally in
use) in addition to serial numbers, and, if so, the Trustee shall use such “CUSIP”
numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers in addition to serial numbers in
notices of redemption, repurchase or other notices to Holders as a convenience
to Holders; provided that any such notice may state
that no representation is made as to the correctness of such “CUSIP” numbers,
ISINs and “Common Code” numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained
in any notice of a redemption or repurchase and that reliance may be placed
only on the serial or other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and
any such redemption or repurchase shall not be affected by any defect in or
omission of such numbers.  The Company
will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the “CUSIP”
numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers applicable to the Notes.

 

SECTION
312.                                            ISSUANCE
OF ADDITIONAL NOTES.

 

The Company may, subject to Section 1010 of this
Indenture, issue additional Notes having identical terms and conditions to the
Initial Notes issued on the Issuance Date (the “Additional Notes”); provided, however, that
no Additional Notes may be issued at a price that would cause such Additional
Notes to have “original issue discount” within the meaning of Section 1273 of
the Code. The Initial Notes issued on the Issuance Date and any Additional
Notes subsequently issued shall be treated as a single class for all purposes
under this Indenture.  Exchange Notes
issued in exchange for Initial Notes issued on the Issuance Date and Exchange
Notes issued for any Additional Notes subsequently issued shall be treated as a
single class for all purposes under this Indenture.

 

ARTICLE FOUR

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

 

SECTION
401.                                            SATISFACTION
AND DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE.

 

This Indenture shall upon Company Request cease to
be of further effect (except as set forth in the last paragraph of this Section
and as to surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of Notes
expressly provided for herein or pursuant hereto) and the Trustee, 

 

43

 

at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper
instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture when

 

(1)           either

 

(a)           all such Notes theretofore authenticated and
delivered (other than (i) Notes which have been lost, stolen or destroyed and
which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 306 and (ii) Notes for
whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust with the Trustee or
any Paying Agent or segregated and held in trust by the Company or discharged
from such trust, as provided in Section 1003) have been delivered to the
Trustee for cancellation; or

 

(b)           all such Notes not theretofore delivered to
the Trustee for cancellation

 

(i)            have become due and payable by reason of the
making of a notice of redemption or otherwise; or

 

(ii)           will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year;
or

 

(iii)          are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements
satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the
Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company,

 

and the Company or any
Guarantor, in the case of (i), (ii) or (iii) above, has irrevocably deposited
or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for such
purpose solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars,
non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts
as will be sufficient in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment
bank, appraisal firm, or firm of independent public accountants, without
consideration of any reinvestment of interest to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness
on such Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for
principal of (and premium, if any) and interest to the date of such deposit (in
the case of Notes which have become due and payable) or to the Stated Maturity
or Redemption Date, as the case may be;

 

(2)           no Default or Event of Default (other than
resulting from borrowing funds to be applied to make such deposit) with respect
to this Indenture or the Notes shall have occurred and be continuing on the
date of such deposit or shall occur as a result of such deposit and such
deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default
under, any other debt instrument or material agreement to which the Company or
any Guarantor is a party or by which it is bound;

 

(3)           the Company or any Guarantor has paid or
caused to be paid all sums payable hereunder by the Company or any Guarantor;

 

44

 

(4)           the Company has delivered irrevocable
instructions to the Trustee to apply the deposited money toward the payment of
such Notes at the Stated Maturity or the Redemption Date, as the case may be;
and

 

(5)           the Company has delivered to the Trustee an
Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all
conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture have been satisfied.

 

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of
this Indenture, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 606
and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause
(b) of clause (1) of this Section, the obligations of the Trustee under Section
402 and the last paragraph of Section 1003 shall survive such satisfaction and
discharge.

 

SECTION
402.                                            APPLICATION
OF TRUST MONEY.

 

Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of
Section 1003, all money or Government Securities deposited with the Trustee
pursuant to Section 401 shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance
with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either
directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own
Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of
the principal (and premium, if any) and interest for whose payment such money
or Governmental Securities 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 401 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 and any Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture
and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred
pursuant to Section 401; provided
that if the Company has made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or
interest on any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the
Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to
receive such payment from the money or Government Securities held by the
Trustee or Paying Agent.

REMEDIES

 

SECTION
501.                                            EVENTS
OF DEFAULT.

 

“Event of Default,” wherever used herein, means any
one of the following events (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and
whether it shall be occasioned by the provisions of Article Fourteen or be

administrative or governmental body):

 

45

 

(i)            default in payment when due and payable, upon
redemption, acceleration or otherwise, of principal or premium, if any, on the
Notes whether or not such payment shall be prohibited by Article Fourteen
hereof or Section 1204;

covenant, warranty or other agreement of the Company or any Guarantor contained
in this Indenture or any Guarantee under this Indenture (other than a default
in the performance, or breach, of a covenant, warranty or agreement which is
specifically dealt with in clauses (i) or (ii) of this Section 501) and
continuance of such default or breach for a period of 30 days after written
notice shall have been given to the Company or such Guarantor by the Trustee or
to the Company or such Guarantor and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 30%
in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding;

 

(iv)          default under any mortgage, indenture or

evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Company or
any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than Indebtedness owed to the Company
or a Restricted Subsidiary), whether such Indebtedness or guarantee now exists
or is created after the Issuance Date, if both (A) such default either (1)
results from the failure to pay any such Indebtedness at its stated final
maturity (after giving effect to any applicable grace periods) or (2) relates
to an obligation other than the obligation to pay principal of any such
Indebtedness at its stated final maturity and results in the holder or holders
of such Indebtedness causing such Indebtedness to become due prior to its
stated maturity and (B) the principal amount of such Indebtedness, together
with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness in default for failure
to pay principal at stated final maturity (after giving effect to any
applicable grace periods), or the maturity of which has been so accelerated,
aggregate $40.0 million or more at any one time outstanding;

 

(v)           failure by the Company or any of its
Significant Subsidiaries to pay final judgments aggregating in excess of $40.0
million, which final judgments remain unpaid, undischarged and unstayed for a

such judgment is covered by insurance, an enforcement proceeding has been
commenced by any creditor upon such judgment or decree which is not promptly
stayed;

 

(vi)          the Company or any of its Significant
Subsidiaries pursuant to or within the meaning of Federal Bankruptcy Code: (A)

against it in an involuntary case; (C) consents to the appointment of a
Custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property; (D) makes a general
assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or (E) admits in writing that it

bona fide dispute) as they become due;

 

46

 

(vii)         a court of competent jurisdiction enters an
order or decree under any Federal Bankruptcy Code that remains unstayed and in
effect for 60 days and: (A) is for relief against the Company or any of its
Significant Subsidiaries in an involuntary case; (B) appoints a Custodian of
the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or for all or substantially
all of the property of the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries; or
(C) orders the liquidation of the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries;
provided that clauses (A), (B) and (C) shall not apply to an Unrestricted
Subsidiary, unless such action or proceeding has a material adverse effect on
the interests of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary; or

 

(viii)        the Guarantee of any Significant Subsidiary
shall for any reason cease to be in full force and effect or is declared null
and void or any Responsible Officer of any Guarantor that is a Significant
Subsidiary, as the case may be, denies that it has any further liability under
its Guarantee or gives notice to such effect (other than by reason of the
termination of this Indenture or the release of any such Guarantee in
accordance with this Indenture).

 

SECTION
502.                                            ACCELERATION
OF MATURITY; RESCISSION AND ANNULMENT.

 

If an Event of Default (other than by reason of an
Event of Default specified in Section 501(vi) or 501(vii)) occurs and is
continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 30% in principal amount of
the Notes Outstanding may declare the principal (and premium, if any), interest
and any other monetary obligations on all the then outstanding Notes to be due
and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the
Trustee if given by Holders); provided,
however, that, so long as any Indebtedness permitted to be incurred
under this Indenture as part of the Senior Credit Facilities shall be
outstanding, such acceleration shall not be effective until the earlier of (i)
acceleration of any such Indebtedness under the Senior Credit Facilities or
(ii) five Business Days after the giving of written notice to the Company and
the Bank Agent of such acceleration. Upon the effectiveness of such
declaration, such principal and interest will be due and payable
immediately.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default specified in Section 501(vi) or
501(vii) occurs and is continuing, then the principal amount of all the Notes
shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any
declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.

 

At any time after a declaration of acceleration has
been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been
obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter provided in this Article, the Holders of
a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes Outstanding, by written
notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration
and its consequences if

 

(1)           the Company has paid or deposited with the
Trustee a sum sufficient to pay,

 

(A)          all overdue interest on all Outstanding
Notes,

 

47

 

(B)           all unpaid principal of (and premium, if any,
on) any Outstanding Notes which has become due otherwise than by such
declaration of acceleration, and interest on such unpaid principal and premium
at the rate borne by the Notes (for purposes of this clause (B) without
duplication to amounts to be paid or deposited under clause (A) above),

 

(C)           to the extent that payment of such interest
is lawful, interest on overdue interest at the rate borne by the Notes, and

 

(D)          all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee
hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances
of the Trustee, its agents and counsel; and

 

(2)           all Events of Default, other than the non-payment
of amounts of principal of (or premium, if any, on) or interest on Notes which
have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or
waived as provided in Section 513;

 

(3)           if the rescission would not conflict with any
judgment or decree; and

 

(4)           in the event of the cure or waiver of an
Event of Default specified in clause (iv) of Section 501, the Trustee shall
have received an Officers’ Certificate and, if appropriate, an Opinion of
Counsel that such Event of Default has been cured or waived.

 

No such rescission shall affect any subsequent
default or impair any right consequent thereon.

 

Upon a determination by the Company that the Senior
Credit Facilities are no longer in effect, the Company shall promptly give to
the Trustee written notice thereof, which notice shall be countersigned by the
Bank Agent. Unless and until the Trustee shall have received such written
notice with respect to the Senior Credit Facilities, the Trustee, subject to
the TIA Sections 315(a) through 315(d), shall be entitled in all respects to
assume that the Senior Credit Facilities are in effect (unless a Responsible
Officer of the Trustee shall have knowledge to the contrary).

 

SECTION 503.                                       COLLECTION
OF INDEBTEDNESS AND SUITS FOR ENFORCEMENT BY TRUSTEE.

 

If an Event of Default specified in Section 501(i)
or 501(ii) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee, in its own name as trustee of
an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the
sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final
decree and may enforce the same against the Company or any Guarantor (in
accordance with the applicable Guarantee) or any other obligor upon the Notes
and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided
by law out of the property of the Company, any Guarantor or any other obligor
upon the Notes, wherever situated.

 

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the
Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the
rights of the Holders under this Indenture or any Guarantee by such appropriate
judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to 

 

48

 

protect and enforce any such rights, including,
seeking recourse against any Guarantor pursuant to the terms of any Guarantee,
whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this
Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce
any other proper remedy including, without limitation, seeking recourse against
any Guarantor pursuant to the terms of a Guarantee, or to enforce any other
proper remedy, subject however to Section 513. No recovery of any such judgment
upon any property of the Company or any Guarantor shall affect or impair any
rights, powers or remedies of the Trustee or the Holders.

 

SECTION
504.                                            TRUSTEE
MAY FILE PROOFS OF CLAIM.

 

In case of the pendency of any receivership,
insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition
or other judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor,
including any Guarantor, upon the Notes or the property of the Company or of
such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the
principal of the Notes shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by
declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have
made any demand on the Company for the payment of overdue principal, premium,
if any, or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such
proceeding or otherwise,

 

(i)            to file and prove a claim for the whole
amount of principal (and premium, if any) and interest owing and unpaid in
respect of the Notes, to take such other actions (including participating as a
member, voting or otherwise, of any official committee of creditors appointed
in such matter) and to file such 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 of the Holders allowed in such judicial
proceeding, and

 

(ii)           to collect and receive any moneys or other
property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

 

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 the Trustee any amount
due 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 607.

 

Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize
the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any
Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition
affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the
Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding; provided, however, that the Trustee may,
on behalf of such Holders, vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or
other similar official.

 

SECTION
505.                                            TRUSTEE
MAY ENFORCE CLAIMS WITHOUT POSSESSION OF NOTES.

 

All rights of action and claims under this
Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees may be prosecuted and enforced by the
Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the 

 

49

 

production thereof in any proceeding relating
thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in
its own name and as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment
shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be
for the ratable benefit of the Holders in respect of which such judgment has
been recovered.

 

SECTION
506.                                            APPLICATION
OF MONEY COLLECTED.

 

Subject to Article Fourteen and Section 1204, any
money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be applied in the
following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the
distribution of such money on account of principal (or premium, if any) or
interest, upon presentation of the Notes and the notation thereon of the
payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

 

FIRST: To the payment of all
amounts due the Trustee under Section 607;

 

SECOND: To the payment of
the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of (and premium, if any) and
interest on the Notes in respect of which or for the benefit of which such
money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind,
according to the amounts due and payable on such Notes for principal (and
premium, if any) and interest, respectively; and

 

THIRD: The balance, if any,
to the Person or Persons entitled thereto, including the Company or any other
obligor on the Notes, as their interests may appear or as a court of competent
jurisdiction may direct, provided that
all sums due and owing to the Holders and the Trustee have been paid in full as
required by this Indenture.

 

SECTION
507.                                            LIMITATION
ON SUITS.

 

No Holder of any Notes shall have any right to
institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this
Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other
remedy hereunder, unless

 

(1)           such Holder has previously given written
notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default;

 

(2)           the Holders of not less than 30% in principal
amount of the Outstanding Notes shall have made written request to the Trustee
to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as
Trustee hereunder;

 

(3)           such Holder or Holders have offered to the
Trustee reasonable indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and
liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request;

 

(4)           the Trustee for 30 days after its receipt of
such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such
proceeding; and

 

50

 

(5)                                  no direction inconsistent with such written
request has been given to the Trustee during such 30-day period by the Holders
of a majority or more in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes;

 

it being understood and
intended that no one or more Holders shall have any right in any manner
whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture, any
Note or any Guarantee to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other
Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any
other Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, any Note or any
Guarantee, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable
benefit of all the Holders (it being further understood that the Trustee does
not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not such actions or
forbearances are unduly prejudicial to such Holders).

 

SECTION 508.                                       UNCONDITIONAL
RIGHT OF HOLDERS TO RECEIVE PRINCIPAL, PREMIUM AND INTEREST.

 

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture,
the Holder of any Note shall have the right, which is absolute and
unconditional, to receive payment, as provided herein (including, if
applicable, Article Eleven) and in such Note of the principal of (and premium,
if any) and (subject to Section 307) interest on such Note on the respective
Stated Maturities expressed in such Note (or, in the case of redemption or
repurchase, on the Redemption Date or repurchase) and to institute suit for the
enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without
the consent of such Holder.

 

SECTION 509.                                       RESTORATION
OF RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.

 

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

 

SECTION 510.                                       RIGHTS
AND REMEDIES CUMULATIVE.

 

Except as otherwise provided with respect to the
replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes in the
last paragraph of Section 306, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or
reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any
other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent
permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy
given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise.
The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise,
shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other
appropriate right or remedy.

SECTION
511.                                            DELAY
OR OMISSION NOT WAIVER.

 

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

 

SECTION
512.                                            CONTROL
BY HOLDERS.

 

The Holders of not less than a majority in principal
amount of the Outstanding Notes shall have the right to direct the time, method
and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee,
or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, provided that

 

(1)                                  such direction shall not be in conflict with
any rule of law or with this Indenture or any Guarantee,

 

(2)                                  the Trustee need not take any action which
might involve it in personal liability or be unjustly prejudicial to the
Holders not consenting; and

 

(3)                                  subject to the provisions of Section 315 of
the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by
the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction.

 

SECTION
513.                                            WAIVER
OF PAST DEFAULTS.

 

Subject to Sections 508 and 902, the Holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes (including
consents obtained in connection with a purchase of or tender offer or exchange
offer for the Notes) may on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes waive any
existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under the Indenture
or any Guarantee except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment
of interest on, premium, if any, or the principal of, any such Note held by a
non-consenting Holder, or in respect of a covenant or a provision which cannot
be amended or modified without the consent of all Holders.

 

In the event that any Event of Default specified in
Section 501(iv) shall have occurred and be continuing, such Event of Default
and all consequences thereof (including without limitation any acceleration or
resulting payment default) shall be annulled, waived and rescinded,
automatically and without any action by the Trustee or the Holders, if within
20 days after such Event of Default arose (x) the Indebtedness or guarantee
that is the basis for such Event of Default has been discharged, or (y) the
holders thereof have rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or action (as
the case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default, or (z) if the default
that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured.

 

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 

 

52

 

such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other
Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

 

SECTION
514.                                            WAIVER
OF STAY OR EXTENSION LAWS.

 

The Company, the Guarantors and any other obligors
upon the Notes, covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it
will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim
or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever
enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants
or the performance of this Indenture; and each of the Company, any Guarantor
and any such obligor (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby
expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it
will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to
the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though
no such law had been enacted.

 

SECTION
515.                                            UNDERTAKING
FOR COSTS.

 

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder
of any Note by his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any
court may in its discretion require, 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, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party
litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that
such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable
attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in such suit, having
due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such
party litigant; but the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any suit
instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of
Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the
Outstanding Notes, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement
of the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Note
on or after the respective Stated Maturities expressed in such Note (or, in the
case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date).

SECTION
601.                                            CERTAIN
DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES.

 

(a)                                  Except
during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default,

 

(1)                                  the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties
and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no
implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the
Trustee; and

 

(2)                                  in the absence of bad faith or willful
misconduct 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 which by any provision hereof are required to be
delivered to the Trustee, furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the
requirements of this Indenture; but in the case of any such certificates or
opinions, the 

 

53

 

Trustee shall be under a
duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the
requirements of this Indenture, but not to verify the contents thereof.

 

(b)                                 In
case a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing of which a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge or of which written
notice of such Default or Event of Default shall have been given to the Trustee
by the Company, any other obligor of the Notes or by any Holder, 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 their exercise, as a prudent
person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such
person’s own affairs.

 

(c)                                  No
provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from
liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or
its own willful misconduct, EXCEPT that

 

(1)                                  this paragraph (c) shall not be construed to
limit the effect of paragraph (a) of this Section;

 

(2)                                  the Trustee shall not be liable for any error
of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it shall be
proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

 

(3)                                  the Trustee shall not be liable with respect
to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance
with the direction of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of
the Outstanding Notes relating to the time, method and place of conducting any
proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or
power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture; and

 

(4)                                  no provision of this Indenture shall require
the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any liability,
financial or otherwise, in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or
in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable
grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity
against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

 

(d)                                 Whether
or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture
relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection
to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section.

 

SECTION
602.                                            NOTICE
OF DEFAULTS.

 

Within 60 days after the occurrence of any Default
hereunder, the Trustee shall transmit in the manner and to the extent provided
in TIA Section 313(c), notice of such Default hereunder known to the Trustee,
unless such Default shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that, except in the case of a Default in
the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Note,
the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the
board of directors, the executive committee or a trust committee of directors
and/or Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determine that the
withholding of such notice is in the interest of the Holders; and provided further that in the case of any
Default of the character 

 

54

 

specified in Section 501(iii) no such notice to
Holders shall be given until at least 30 days after the occurrence thereof.

 

SECTION

RIGHTS OF TRUSTEE.

 

(a)                                  If an
Event of Default 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 their exercise as a prudent person would exercise

Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the
absence of bad faith on its part, request and conclusively rely upon an
Officers’ Certificate;

 

(4)                                  the Trustee may consult with counsel of its

order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or
document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or

or by agent or attorney at the sole cost of the Company and shall incur no
liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or
investigation;

Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise
incur any liability, financial or otherwise, in the performance of any of its

(d)                                 The
rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee,

The recitals contained herein and in the Notes,
except for the Trustee’s certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the
statements of the Company, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their
correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or
sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Notes, except that the Trustee

statements made by it in a Statement of Eligibility on Form T-1 supplied to the
Company are true and accurate, subject to the qualifications set forth therein.

SECTION
606.                                            MONEY
HELD IN TRUST.

 

All moneys received by the Trustee shall, until used
or applied as herein provided, be held in trust hereunder for the purposes for

607.                                            COMPENSATION

(which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the
compensation of a trustee of an express trust);

 

(2)                                  The Company agrees, except as otherwise
expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all
reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee
in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable
compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel and
costs and expenses of collection), except any such expense, disbursement or
advance as may be attributable to its willful misconduct, negligence or bad
faith; and

hold it harmless against, any and all loss, damage, claim, liability or
expense, including taxes (other than taxes based on the income of the Trustee)
incurred without willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith on its part,
arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this
trust, including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending itself against
any claim (regardless of whether such claim is asserted by the Company, a
Guarantor, a Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with the
exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder.

 

The obligations of the Company under this Section to
compensate the Trustee, to pay or reimburse the Trustee for expenses,
disbursements and advances and to indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee shall

interest on particular Notes.

have an office in The City of New York, the Trustee may appoint an agent in The
City of New York reasonably acceptable to the Company to conduct any activities
which the Trustee may be required under this Indenture to conduct in The City
of New York. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually,
pursuant to law or to the requirements of federal, state, territorial or
District of Columbia supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes
of this Section 608, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall
be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most
recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease
to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 608, it shall

appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the applicable
requirements of this Section.

 

(b)                                 The
Trustee may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Company.
Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Company shall promptly appoint a
successor trustee by written instrument executed by authority of the Board of
Directors, a copy of which shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and a
copy to the successor trustee. If an instrument of acceptance required by this
Section shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the
giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may, at the expense
of the Company, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor Trustee.

 

(c)                                  The

and to the Company.

Trustee 

 

58

expense of the Company, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment
of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series.

any time:

 

(1)                                  the Trustee shall fail to comply with the
provisions of TIA Section 310(b) after written request therefor by the Company or
by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder for at least six months, or

 

(2)                                  the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under
Section 608 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the
Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder for at least six
months, or

 

(3)                                  the Trustee shall become incapable of acting
or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a Custodian of the Trustee or
of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or
control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of
rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,

 

then, in any such case, (i) the Company, by a Board
Resolution, may remove the Trustee, or (ii) subject to TIA Section 315(e),
any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder for at least six months may, on
behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of
competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a
successor Trustee.

 

(f)                                    If the
Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy
shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, the Company, by a Board
Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. If, within one year
after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such
vacancy, a successor Trustee shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes delivered to the Company
and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith
upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Trustee and
supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor
Trustee shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders and accepted
appointment in the manner hereinafter provided, any Holder who has been a bona
fide Holder for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others
similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor Trustee.

 

(g)                                 The
Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee
and each appointment of a successor Trustee to the Holders in the manner
provided for in Section 106. Each notice shall include the name of the
successor Trustee and the address of its Corporate Trust Office.

 

SECTION
610.                                            ACCEPTANCE
OF APPOINTMENT BY SUCCESSOR.

 

Every successor Trustee appointed hereunder shall
execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an
instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal
of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee,
without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the
rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on request of
the Company or the 

 

59

 

successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon
payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such
successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and
shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property
and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder. Upon request of any such
successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more
fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all
such rights, powers and trusts.

 

No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment
unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified

611.                                            MERGER,
CONVERSION, CONSOLIDATION OR SUCCESSION TO BUSINESS.

 

Any corporation or national association into which
the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or
any corporation or national association resulting from any merger, conversion
or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation or
national association succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate
trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder,
provided such corporation or national association shall be otherwise qualified
and eligible under this Article, without the execution or filing of any paper
or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Notes
shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in
office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such
authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Notes so
authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself
authenticated such Notes. In case at that time any of the Notes shall not have
been authenticated, any successor Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in
the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor Trustee.
In all such cases such certificates shall have the full force and effect which
this Indenture provides for the certificate of authentication of the Trustee
shall have; provided, however,
that the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor
Trustee or to authenticate Notes in the name of any predecessor Trustee shall
apply only to its successor or successors by merger, conversion or
consolidation.

convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or
assets, in one or more related transactions to, any Person, unless at the time
and after giving effect:

 

(A)  (i) 
such Guarantor is the surviving corporation or the Person formed by or
surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than such Guarantor) or to
which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition
will have been made is a corporation organized or existing under the laws of
the United States, any State thereof, the District of Columbia, or any
territory thereof (such Guarantor or such Person, as the case may be, being
herein called the “Successor Guarantor”);

 

(ii)                                  the Successor Guarantor (if other than such

Section 1017.

 

Subject to Section 1209 hereof, the Successor
Guarantor shall succeed to, and be substituted for, such Guarantor under this
Indenture and such Guarantor’s Guarantee. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Guarantor may merge into or transfer
all or part of its properties and assets to another Guarantor or the Company.

 

SECTION
803.                                            SUCCESSOR
SUBSTITUTED.

 

Upon any consolidation or merger, or any sale,
assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or disposition of all or substantially
all of the assets of the Company or any Guarantor in accordance with
Sections 801 and 802 hereof, the successor Person formed by such
consolidation or into which the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be,
is merged or the successor Person to which such sale, assignment, conveyance,
transfer, lease or disposition is made, shall succeed to, and be substituted
for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company or such Guarantor,
as the case may be, under this Indenture or the Guarantees, as the case may be,
with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as the Company
or such Guarantor, as the case may be, herein or the Guarantees, as the case
may be. When a successor Person assumes all obligations of its predecessor
hereunder, the Notes or the Guarantees, as the case may be, such predecessor
shall be released from all obligations; provided that
in the event of a transfer or lease, the predecessor shall not be released from
the payment of principal and interest or other obligations on the Notes or the
Guarantees, as the case may be.

SECTION
1001.                                      PAYMENT
OF PRINCIPAL, PREMIUM, IF ANY, AND INTEREST.

an office or agency where Notes may be presented or surrendered for payment,
where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and
where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Notes and
this Indenture may be served. The designated office of the Trustee shall 

 

66

 

be such office or agency of the Company, unless the
Company shall designate and maintain some other office or agency for one or
more of such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the
Trustee of any change in the location of any such office or agency. If at any

surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust
Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent
to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.

 

The Company may also from time to time designate one
or more other offices or agencies (in or outside of The City of New York) where
the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may
from time to time rescind any such designation; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission
shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office
or agency in The City of New York for such purposes. The Company will give
prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and
any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

 

SECTION
1003.                                      MONEY
FOR NOTE PAYMENTS TO BE HELD IN TRUST.

 

If the Company shall at any time act as its own
Paying Agent, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of (or
premium, if any) or interest or Special Interest, if any, on any of the Notes,
segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a
sum sufficient to pay the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest so
becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise
disposed of as herein provided and will promptly notify the Trustee of its
action or failure to so act.

 

Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying
Agents for the Notes, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of
(or premium, if any) or interest on any Notes, deposit with a Paying Agent a
sum in same day funds (or New York Clearing House funds if such deposit is made
prior to the date on which such deposit is required to be made) sufficient to
pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest so becoming due, such sum
to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal,
premium or interest, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company
will promptly notify the Trustee of such action or any failure to so act.

 

The Company will cause each Paying Agent (other than
the Trustee) to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such
Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this
Section, that such Paying Agent will:

 

(1)                                  hold all sums held by it for the payment of
the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on Notes in trust for the
benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such
Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided;

 

(2)                                  give the Trustee notice of any default by the
Company (or any other obligor upon the Notes) in the making of any payment of
principal (and premium, if any) or interest; and

 

67

 

(3)                                  at any time during the continuance of any
such default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the
Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent.

 

The Company may at any time, for the purpose of
obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other
purpose, pay, or by Company Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the
Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums
to be held by the Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums
were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any
Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all
further liability with respect to such sums.

 

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 (or premium, if any) or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two
years after such principal, premium or interest has become due and payable
shall be paid to the Company on Company Request, or (if then held by the
Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall
thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, 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 to the Company, may at the expense of the
Company cause to be published once, in a newspaper published in the English
language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation
in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, 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 publication, any unclaimed balance of
such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company.

cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and
effect the corporate existence and that of each Restricted Subsidiary and the
corporate rights (charter and statutory) licenses and franchises of the Company
and each Restricted Subsidiary; provided,
however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such
existence (except the Company), right, license or franchise if the Board of
Directors of the Company shall determine that the preservation thereof is no
longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and each of its
Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and that the loss thereof is not,
and will not be, disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders.

 

SECTION
1005.                                      PAYMENT
OF TAXES AND OTHER CLAIMS.

taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed upon the Company
or any Subsidiary or upon the income, profits or property of the Company or any
Subsidiary and (b) all lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies, which,
if unpaid, might by law become a material liability or lien upon the property
of the Company or any Subsidiary; provided,

conduct of its business or the business of any Restricted Subsidiary to be
maintained and kept in normal condition, repair and working order and will
cause to be made all necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and
improvements thereof, all as in the judgment of the Company may be necessary so
that the business carried on in connection therewith may be properly conducted
at all times; provided, however,
that nothing in this Section shall prevent the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries from discontinuing the maintenance of any of such properties if
such discontinuance is, in the judgment of the Company, desirable in the
conduct of its business or the business of any Restricted Subsidiary and not
adverse in any material respect to the Holders.

insurance with responsible carriers against such risks and in such amounts, and
with such deductibles, retentions, self-insured amounts and co-insurance
provisions, as are customarily carried by similar businesses, of similar size,
including professional and general liability, property and casualty loss,
workers’ compensation and interruption of business insurance.

its Subsidiaries to comply, with all applicable statutes, rules, regulations,
orders and restrictions of the United States of America, all states and
municipalities thereof, and of any governmental regulatory authority, in
respect of the conduct of their respective businesses and the ownership of
their respective properties, except for such noncompliances as would not in the
aggregate have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or results
of operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

provided
however, that at the
time of, and after giving effect to, any Restricted Payment permitted under
clauses (v), (vi) and (xi), no Default or Event or Default shall have occurred
and be continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof.

 

To the extent the issuance of Equity Interests and
the receipt of capital contributions are applied to permit the issuance of
Indebtedness pursuant to clause (xiii) of paragraph (b) of Section 1010, the issuance

to recompute or recalculate or verify the accuracy of the information set forth
in such Officers’ Certificate.

 

(d)                                 As of
the Issuance Date, all of the Company’s Subsidiaries will be Restricted
Subsidiaries. The Company will not permit any Unrestricted Subsidiary to become
a Restricted Subsidiary except pursuant to the second to last sentence of the
definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary.” For purposes of designating any
Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, all outstanding
Investments by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries (except to the
extent repaid) in the Subsidiary so designated will be deemed to be Restricted
Payments in an amount determined as set forth in the last sentence of the
definition of “Investments.” Such designation will be permitted only if a
Restricted Payment in such amount would be permitted at such time (whether
pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 1009 or under clauses (vii), (x) and
(xi) of paragraph (b) of this Section 1009 or pursuant to the definition of “Permitted
Investments”) and if such Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an
Unrestricted Subsidiary. Unrestricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to any
of the restrictive covenants set forth in this Indenture.

respect to letters of credit issued in the ordinary course of business,
including without limitation letters of credit in respect of workers’
compensation claims or self-insurance, or other Indebtedness with respect to
reimbursement type obligations regarding workers’ compensation claims; provided, however, that upon the drawing

Subsidiary; provided that any
such Indebtedness owing to a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor is
made pursuant to an intercompany note and is subordinated in right of payment
to the Notes; provided further
that any subsequent issuance or transfer of any Capital Stock or any other
event which results in any such Restricted Subsidiary ceasing to be a
Restricted Subsidiary or any other subsequent transfer of any such Indebtedness
(except to the Company or another Restricted Subsidiary) shall be deemed, in
each case to be an incurrence of such Indebtedness;

 

(viii)                        Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary to
the Company or another Restricted Subsidiary; provided
that (A) any such Indebtedness is made pursuant to an intercompany note and (B)
if a Guarantor incurs such Indebtedness to a Restricted Subsidiary that is not
a Guarantor, such Indebtedness is subordinated in right of payment to the
Guarantee of such Guarantor; provided
further that any subsequent transfer of any such Indebtedness
(except to the Company or another Restricted Subsidiary) shall be deemed, in
each case to be an incurrence of such Indebtedness;

transfer of any Capital Stock or any other event which results in any such
Restricted Subsidiary ceasing to be a Restricted Subsidiary or any other
subsequent transfer of any such shares of preferred stock (except to the
Company or another Restricted Subsidiary) shall be deemed in each case to be an
issuance of such shares of preferred stock;

 

(x)                                   Hedging Obligations that are incurred in the

permitted hereunder in an aggregate principal amount or liquidation preference,
which when aggregated with the principal amount or liquidation preference of
all other Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock and preferred stock then outstanding
and incurred pursuant to this clause (xiii), does not at any one time
outstanding exceed the sum of (x) $150.0 million and (y) 100% of the net cash
proceeds received by the Company since immediately after the Issuance Date from
the issue or sale of Equity Interests of the Company or net cash proceeds
contributed to the capital of the Company (in each case other than Disqualified
Stock or sales of Equity Interests to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries)
as determined in accordance with clauses (ii) and (iii) of paragraph (b) of
Section 1009 to the extent such net cash proceeds have not been applied
pursuant to such clauses to make Restricted Payments or to make other
investments, payments or exchanges pursuant to the paragraph (b) of Section
1009 or to make Permitted Investments (other than Permitted Investments
specified in clauses (a) and (c) thereof) (it being understood that any
Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock and preferred stock incurred under this clause
(xiii) shall cease to be deemed incurred or outstanding for purposes of this
clause (xiii) but shall be deemed to be incurred for purposes of paragraph (a)
of this Section 1010 from and after the first date on which the Company or such
Restricted Subsidiary could have incurred such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock
or preferred stock under paragraph (a) of this Section 1010 without reliance
upon this clause (xiii));

 

(xiv)                         (A) any guarantee by the Company of

in accordance with paragraph (a) of Section 1014;

 

(xv)                            the incurrence by the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock
which serves to refund, refinance or restructure any Indebtedness, Disqualified
Stock or preferred stock incurred as permitted 

 

78

 

under paragraph (a) and
clauses (ii) and (iii), this clause (xv) and clause (xvi) below of this
paragraph (b) of Section 1010, or any Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or
preferred stock issued to so refund, refinance or restructure such Indebtedness
including additional Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock
incurred to pay premiums and fees in connection therewith (the “Refinancing
Indebtedness”) prior to its respective maturity; provided, however, that such Refinancing Indebtedness (A)
has a Weighted Average Life to Maturity at the time such Refinancing
Indebtedness is incurred which is not less than the remaining Weighted Average
Life to Maturity of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock being
refunded or refinanced, (B) to the extent such Refinancing Indebtedness
refinances (x) Indebtedness subordinated or pari passu to the Notes or any
Guarantee of the Notes, such Refinancing Indebtedness is subordinated or pari
passu to the Notes or any Guarantee of the Notes at least to the same extent as
the Indebtedness being refinanced or refunded or (y) Disqualified Stock or
preferred stock, such Refinancing Indebtedness must be Disqualified Stock or
preferred stock, respectively, and (C) shall not include (x) Indebtedness,
Disqualified Stock or preferred stock of a Subsidiary that refinances
Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock of the Company, (y)
Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock of a Subsidiary that is not

of a Guarantor or (z) Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock of
the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary that refinances Indebtedness,
Disqualified Stock or preferred stock of an Unrestricted Subsidiary; and provided further that subclauses (A) and
(B) of this clause (xv) will not apply to any refunding or refinancing of any
Senior Indebtedness;

 

(xvi)                         Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or
preferred stock of Persons that are acquired by the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries or merged into the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary
in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; provided that such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or
preferred stock is not incurred in contemplation of such acquisition or merger;
and provided further that after
giving effect to such acquisition or merger, either (A) the Company would be
permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness under paragraph
(a) or (B) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is greater than immediately prior to
such acquisition or merger;

 

(xvii)                      Indebtedness arising from the honoring by a
bank or other financial institution of a check, draft or similar instrument
drawn against insufficient funds in the ordinary course of business, provided that such Indebtedness is extinguished within two Business Days
of its incurrence;

 

(xviii)                   Indebtedness of the Company or any Restricted

(xix)                           (1) any guarantee by the Company or a
Guarantor of Indebtedness or other obligations of any Restricted Subsidiary so
long as the incurrence of such Indebtedness incurred by such Restricted
Subsidiary is permitted under the terms of the Indenture, or

 

(2)
any guarantee by a Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness of the Company, provided that such guarantee is incurred in accordance with Section 1014.

 

79

 

For purposes of determining compliance with this
Section, in the event that an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or
preferred stock meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of
permitted Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock described in
clauses (i) through (xix) above or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to
paragraph (a) of this Section 1010, the Company shall, in its sole discretion,
classify or reclassify such item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or
preferred stock and will only be required to include the amount and type of
such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock in one of the above
clauses; provided that all
Indebtedness outstanding under the Credit Facilities after the application of
the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes will be treated as incurred on the
Issuance Date under paragraph (a) of this Section 1010.  Accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted
value and the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness,
Disqualified Stock or preferred stock will not be deemed to be an incurrence of
Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock for purposes of this
Section.

 

For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S.
dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S.
dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign
currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in
effect on the date such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term debt, or
first committed, in the case of revolving credit debt; provided that if such Indebtedness is
incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and
such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar-denominated restriction
to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect
on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar-denominated restriction shall
be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such
refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such
Indebtedness being refinanced. The principal amount of any Indebtedness
incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency
from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the
currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such respective
Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

 

SECTION
1011.                                      LIMITATION
ON LIENS.

 

The Company will not, and will not permit any
Guarantor to, directly or indirectly create, incur, assume or suffer to exist
any Lien (except Permitted Liens) that secures obligations under any Pari Passu
Indebtedness or Subordinated Indebtedness on any asset or property of the
Company or such Guarantor, or any income or profits therefrom, or assign or
convey any right to receive income therefrom, unless the Notes (or a Guarantee
in the case of Liens of a Guarantor) are equally and ratably secured (or senior
to, in the event the Lien relates to Subordinated Indebtedness) with the
obligations so secured or until such time as such obligations are no longer
secured by a Lien.

 

SECTION
1012.                                      LIMITATION

benefit of,
any Affiliate (each of the foregoing, an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving
aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $5.0 million, unless:

 

(i)                   such Affiliate Transaction is on terms that
are not materially 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

 

(ii)                 the Company delivers to the Trustee with
respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate
Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $10.0 million, a
resolution adopted by the majority of the Board of Directors of the Company
approving such Affiliate Transaction and set forth in an Officers’ Certificate
certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (i) above.

or among the Company and/or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; (ii) Restricted

transaction is fair to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from a
financial point of view or meets the requirements of clause (i) of paragraph
(a); (vii) payments or loans (or cancellation of loans) to employees or
consultants of the Company, any of its direct or indirect parent corporations
or any Restricted Subsidiary which are approved by a majority of the Board of
Directors of the Company in good faith; (viii) any agreement as in effect as of
the Issuance Date or any amendment thereto (so long as any such amendment is
not disadvantageous to the Holders in any material respect) or any transaction
contemplated thereby; (ix) the existence of, or the performance by the Company
or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of its obligations under the terms of,
any stockholders agreement (including any registration rights agreement or
purchase agreement related thereto) to which it is a party as of the Issuance
Date and any similar agreements which it may enter into thereafter; provided, however, that the existence of,
or the performance by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of
obligations under any future amendment to any such existing agreement or under
any similar agreement entered into after the Issuance Date shall only be
permitted by this clause (ix) to the extent that the terms of any such
amendment or new agreement are not otherwise disadvantageous to the Holders in
any material respect; (x) the Transactions and the payment of all fees and
expenses related to the Transactions, in each case as disclosed in the Offering
Memorandum; (xi) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers, or purchasers
or sellers of goods or services, in each case in the ordinary course of

Restricted
Subsidiaries, in the reasonable determination of the Board of Directors of the
Company or the senior management thereof, or are on terms at least as favorable

ON DIVIDEND AND OTHER PAYMENT RESTRICTIONS AFFECTING SUBSIDIARIES.

 

The Company will not, and will not permit any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause
or suffer to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or consensual
restriction on the ability of any such Restricted Subsidiary to:

 

(a)                 (i)

effect on the Issuance Date, including, without limitation, pursuant to
Existing Indebtedness or the Senior Credit Facilities and their related
documentation;

 

(2)                 this Indenture and the Notes;

 

(3)                 purchase money obligations for property

(4)                 applicable law or any applicable rule,
regulation or order;

 

(5)                 any agreement or other instrument of a Person

of such acquisition (but not created in contemplation thereof), 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;

 

(6)                 contracts for the sale of assets, including,

Capital Stock or assets of such Subsidiary;

 

(7)                 secured Indebtedness otherwise permitted to

amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements,
refundings, replacements or refinancings are, in the good faith judgment of the

payment restrictions prior to such amendment, modification, restatement,
renewal, increase, supplement, refunding, replacement or refinancing; or

 

(13)              restrictions created in connection with any

SECTION
1014.                   LIMITATION
ON GUARANTEES OF INDEBTEDNESS BY RESTRICTED SUBSIDIARIES.

 

(a)                 The
Company will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Domestic
Subsidiary, other than a Guarantor or a special-purpose Restricted Subsidiary
formed in connection with the Receivables Facility, to guarantee the payment of
any Indebtedness of the Company or any other Guarantor unless (i) such
Restricted Subsidiary simultaneously executes and delivers a supplemental
indenture to the Indenture providing for a Guarantee of payment of the Notes by
such Restricted Subsidiary except that with respect to a guarantee of
Indebtedness of the Company or any Guarantor (A) if the Notes or such Guarantor’s
Guarantee of the Notes are subordinated in right of payment to such
Indebtedness, the Guarantee under the supplemental indenture shall be
subordinated to such Restricted Subsidiary’s guarantee with respect to such
Indebtedness substantially to the same extent as the Notes are subordinated to
such Indebtedness

 

83

 

under the
Indenture and (B) if such Indebtedness is by its express terms subordinated in right
of payment to the Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee of the Notes, any such
guarantee of such Restricted Subsidiary with respect to such Indebtedness shall
be subordinated in right of payment to such Restricted Subsidiary’s Guarantee
with respect to the Notes substantially to the same extent as such Indebtedness
is subordinated to the Notes; (ii) such Restricted Subsidiary waives and will
not in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any
rights of reimbursement, indemnity or subrogation or any other rights against
the Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary as a result of any payment by
such Restricted Subsidiary under its Guarantee; and (iii) such Restricted
Subsidiary shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect
that (A) such Guarantee of the Notes has been duly executed and authorized and
(B) such Guarantee of the Notes constitutes a valid, binding and enforceable
obligation of such Restricted Subsidiary, except insofar as enforcement thereof
may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws (including, without
limitation, all laws relating to fraudulent transfers) and except insofar as
enforcement thereof is subject to general principles of equity; provided that this paragraph (a) shall not
be applicable to any guarantee of any Restricted Subsidiary (x) that (A)
existed at the time such Person became a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company
and (B) was not incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such
Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company or (y) that guarantees
the payment of Obligations of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary under
the Senior Credit Facilities or any other Senior Indebtedness and any
refunding, refinancing or replacement thereof, in whole or in part, provided that such refunding, refinancing
or replacement thereof constitutes Senior Indebtedness and provided further that any such Senior
Indebtedness and any refunding, refinancing or replacement thereof is not
incurred pursuant to a registered offering of securities under the Securities
Act or a private placement of securities (including under Rule 144A) pursuant
to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, which
private placement provides for registration rights under the Securities Act.

 

(b)                 Notwithstanding
the foregoing and the other provisions of this Indenture, any Guarantee by a
Restricted Subsidiary of the Notes shall provide by its terms that it shall be
automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon (i) any sale,
exchange or transfer, to any Person not an Affiliate of the Company, of all of
the Company’s Capital Stock in, or all or substantially all the assets of, such
Restricted Subsidiary (which sale, exchange or transfer is not prohibited
hereunder) or (ii) the release or discharge of the guarantee which resulted in
the creation of such Guarantee, except a discharge or release by or as a result
of payment under such guarantee.

 

SECTION
1015.                   LIMITATION
ON OTHER SENIOR SUBORDINATED INDEBTEDNESS.

 

The Company will not, and will not permit any
Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, incur any Indebtedness (including
Acquired Indebtedness) that is subordinate in right of payment to any
Indebtedness of the Company or any Indebtedness of any Guarantor, as the case
may be, unless such Indebtedness is either (a) pari
passu in right of payment with the Notes or such Guarantor’s
Guarantee, as the case may be or (b) subordinate in right of payment to the
Notes, or such Guarantor’s Guarantee, as the case may be.  No such Indebtedness will be considered to be
senior by virtue of being secured on a first or junior priority basis.

 

84

 

SECTION
1016.                   PURCHASE
OF NOTES UPON A CHANGE OF CONTROL.

 

(a)                 Upon
the occurrence of a Change of Control, unless the Company has elected to redeem
the Notes in connection with such Change of Control, the Company will make an
offer to purchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiples of
$1,000 in excess thereof) of the Notes pursuant to the offer described below
(the “Change of Control Offer”) at a price in cash (the “Change of Control
Payment”) equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued
and unpaid interest and Special Interest thereon, if any, to the date of
purchase, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date
to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date.

 

(b)                 Within
30 days following any Change of Control, the Company shall give to each Holder,
with a copy to the Trustee, in the manner provided in Section 106 a notice
stating:

 

(1)                 a Change of Control Offer is being made
pursuant to this Section entitled “Purchase of Notes upon Change of Control,”
and that all Notes properly tendered pursuant to such Change of Control Offer
will be accepted for payment;

 

(2)                 the purchase price and the purchase date,
which will be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such
notice is mailed, except as may be otherwise required by applicable law (the “Change
of Control Payment Date”);

 

(3)                 any Note not properly tendered will remain
outstanding and continue to accrue interest;

 

(4)                 unless the Company defaults in the payment of
the Change of Control Payment, all Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the
Change of Control Offer will cease to accrue interest on the Change of Control
Payment Date;

 

(5)                 Holders electing to have any Notes purchased
pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender the Notes,
with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of
the Notes completed, to the Paying Agent specified in the notice at the address
specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third Business
Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date;

 

(6)                 Holders will be entitled to withdraw their
tendered Notes and their election to require the Company to purchase such
Notes, provided that the Paying Agent receives, not later
than the close of business on the last day of the Offer Period, a facsimile
transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal
amount of Notes tendered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is
withdrawing such Holder’s tendered Notes and his election to have such Notes
purchased;

 

(7)                 that Holders whose Notes are being purchased
only in part will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the
unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, which unpurchased portion must be
equal to $2,000 in principal amount or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess
thereof; and

 

85

 

(8)                 any additional instructions a Holder must
follow in order to have its Notes repurchased in accordance with this Section
1016.

 

(c)                 Prior
to complying with the provisions of this Section 1016, but in any event within
30 days following a Change of Control, the Company will either repay all
outstanding Senior Indebtedness or obtain the requisite consents, if any, under
any outstanding Senior Indebtedness in each case necessary to permit the repurchase
of the Notes required by this Section 1016.  
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 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.  A Change of
Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control or conditional upon
the occurrence of a Change of Control, if a definitive binding agreement is in
place for the Change of Control at the time the Change of Control Offer is
made.  While the Notes are in global form
and the Company makes an offer to purchase all of the Notes pursuant to the
Change of Control Offer, a Holder may exercise its option to elect for the
purchase of the Notes through the facilities of the Depositary, subject to its
rules and regulations.  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 such laws or
regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes
pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any
securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions hereunder, the
Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and
shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations described hereunder by
virtue thereof.

 

(d)                 On the
Change of Control Payment Date, the Company shall, to the extent permitted by
law,

 

(i)                   accept for payment all Notes or portions
thereof properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer,

 

(ii)                 deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal
to the aggregate Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions
thereof so tendered and

 

(iii)                deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the
Trustee for cancellation the Notes so accepted together with an Officers’
Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof have been tendered to
and purchased by the Company.

 

(e)                 The
Company shall publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on
or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

 

(f) The Paying Agent shall promptly mail to each
Holder the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee will
promptly authenticate and mail to each Holder a new Note equal in principal
amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any, provided
that each such new Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral
multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

SECTION
1017.                   LIMITATION
ON SALES OF ASSETS.

 

The Company will not, and will not permit any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to, cause, make or suffer to exist an Asset Sale,
unless (x) the Company, or its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be,
receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the
fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Company) of the assets
sold or otherwise disposed of and (y) except in the case of a Permitted Asset
Swap, at least 75% of the consideration therefor received by the Company, or
such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of cash or Cash
Equivalents; provided that the
amount of (a) any liabilities (as shown on the Company’s or such Restricted
Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet or in the notes thereto) of the Company
or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than liabilities that are by their terms
subordinated to the Notes), that are assumed by the transferee of any such
assets and for which the Company and all Restricted Subsidiaries have been
validly released by all creditors in writing, (b) any securities received by
the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are
converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash (to the extent
of the cash received) within 180 days following the closing of such Asset Sale
and (c) any Designated Noncash Consideration received by the Company or any of
its Restricted Subsidiaries in such Asset Sale having an aggregate fair market
value, taken together with all other Designated Noncash Consideration received
pursuant to this clause (c) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed the
greater of (x) $115.0 million and (y) 10% of Total Assets at the time of the
receipt of such Designated Noncash Consideration (with the fair market value of
each item of Designated Noncash Consideration being measured at the time
received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value), shall be
deemed to be cash for the purposes of this provision and for no other purpose.

 

Within 365 days after the Company’s or any
Restricted Subsidiary’s receipt of the Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale, the
Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, at its option, may apply the Net
Proceeds from such Asset Sale (i) to permanently reduce (x) Obligations under
the Senior Credit Facilities (and to correspondingly reduce commitments with
respect thereto), (y) other Senior Indebtedness or Pari Passu Indebtedness
(provided that if the Company shall so reduce Obligations under Pari Passu
Indebtedness, it will equally and ratably reduce Obligations under the Notes if
the Notes are then prepayable or, if the Notes may not be then prepaid, the
Company shall make an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below
for an Asset Sale Offer) to all Holders to purchase at 100% of the principal amount
thereof, plus the amount of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the amount
of Notes that would otherwise be prepaid) or (z) Indebtedness of a Restricted
Subsidiary which is not a Guarantor, other than Indebtedness owed to the
Company or another Restricted Subsidiary, (ii) to an investment in (a) any one
or more businesses, provided,
that such investment in any business is in the form of the acquisition of
Capital Stock and results in the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, as the
case may be, owning an amount of the Capital Stock of such business such that
it constitutes a Restricted Subsidiary, (b) capital expenditures or (c)
acquisitions of other assets, in each of (a), (b) and (c), used or useful in a
Similar Business, and/or (iii) to an investment in (a) any one or more
businesses, provided, that such
investment in any business is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock
and results in the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be,
owning an amount of the Capital Stock of such business such that it constitutes
a Restricted Subsidiary,  (b) properties
or (c) assets that, in each of (a), (b) and (c) replace the businesses,
properties and assets that are the subject of such Asset Sale;

 

87

 

provided, that in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii)
above, a binding commitment shall be treated as a permitted application of the
Net Proceeds from the date of such commitment so long as the Company or such
Restricted Subsidiary enters into such commitment with the good faith
expectation that such Net Proceeds will be applied to satisfy such commitment
(an “Acceptable Commitment”) and,
in the event any Acceptable Commitment is later canceled or terminated for any
reason before such Net Proceeds are so applied, the Company or such Restricted
Subsidiary enters into another Acceptable Commitment within nine months of such
cancellation or termination.

 

Pending the final application of any such Net
Proceeds, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may temporarily reduce
Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility, if any, or otherwise invest
such Net Proceeds in Cash Equivalents or Investment Grade Securities.

 

Any Net Proceeds from the Asset Sale that are not
invested or applied as provided and within the time period set forth in the
first sentence of this paragraph will be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds.”

 

When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds
$20.0 million, the Company shall make an offer to all Holders, and if required
by the terms of any Pari Passu Indebtedness, to the holders of such Pari Passu
Indebtedness (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to purchase the maximum principal amount
of Notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness, that is an integral multiple of
$1,000, 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 and Special Interest, if any, to the date fixed for the
closing of such offer (the “Offered Price”). Within 10 Business Days after the
date on which the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $20.0 million,
the Company shall give to each Holder, with a copy to the Trustee, in the
manner provided in Section 106 a notice stating:

 

(i)                   that the Holder has the right to require the
Company to repurchase such Holder’s Notes at the Offered Price, subject to
proration in the event the Excess Proceeds are less than the aggregate Offered
Price of all Notes tendered;

 

(ii)                 the date of purchase of Notes pursuant to the
Asset Sale Offer (the “Asset Sale Purchase Date”), which shall be no earlier
than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed;

 

(iii)                that the Offered Price will be paid to
Holders electing to have Notes purchased on the Asset Sale Purchase Date,
provided that a Holder must surrender its Note to the Paying Agent at the
address specified in the notice prior to the close of business at least five
Business Days prior to the Asset Sale Purchase Date;

 

(iv)               any Note not tendered will continue to accrue
interest pursuant to its terms;

 

(v)                 that unless the Company defaults in the
payment of the Offered Price, any Note accepted for payment pursuant to the
Asset Sale Offer shall cease to accrue interest on and after the Asset Sale
Purchase Date;

 

88

 

(vi)               that Holders will be entitled to withdraw
their tendered Notes and their election to require the Company to purchase such
Notes, provided that the Company receives, not later than the close of business
on the third Business Day preceding the Asset Sale Purchase Date, a facsimile
transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal
amount of the Notes tendered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is
withdrawing its election to have such Notes purchased;

 

(vii)              that the Holders whose Notes are being
purchased only in part will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to
the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered; which unpurchased portion
must be equal to $2,000 in principal amount or an integral multiple of $1,000
in excess thereof; and

 

(viii)            the instructions a Holder must follow in
order to have his Notes purchased in accordance with this Section 1017.

 

To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes and
Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than
the Excess Proceeds, the Company may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for
general corporate purposes, subject to other covenants contained in this
Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes or the Pari Passu
Indebtedness surrendered by such holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess
Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness
to be purchased in the manner described in Section 1104. Upon completion of any
such Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall 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 such laws and regulations are applicable in connection
with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent
that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the
provisions of this Section 1017, the Company shall comply with the applicable
securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its
obligations under this Indenture.

 

SECTION
1018.                   STATEMENT
BY OFFICERS AS TO DEFAULT.

 

(a)                 The
Company will deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each
fiscal year, an Officers’ Certificate stating that a review of the activities
of the Company and its Subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal year has been
made under the supervision of the signing officers with a view to determining
whether it has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled, and has caused each of
its Subsidiaries to keep, observe, perform and fulfill its obligations under
this Indenture and further stating, as to each such officer signing such
certificate, that, to the best of his or her knowledge, the Company during such
preceding fiscal year has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled, and has
caused each of its Subsidiaries to keep, observe, perform and fulfill each and
every such covenant contained in this Indenture and no Default or Event of
Default occurred during such year and at the date of such certificate there is
no Default or Event of Default which has occurred and is continuing or, if such
signers do know of such Default or Event of Default, the certificate shall describe
its status, with particularity and that, to the best of his or her knowledge,
no event has occurred and remains by reason of which

 

89

 

payments on
account of the principal of or interest, if any, on the Notes is prohibited or
if such event has occurred, a description of the event and what action each is
taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. The Officers’ Certificate
shall also notify the Trustee should the Company elect to change the manner in
which it fixes its fiscal year end. For purposes of this Section 1018(a), such
compliance shall be determined without regard to any period of grace or
requirement of notice under this Indenture.

 

(b)                 When
any Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture, or if the
trustee for or the holder of any other evidence of Indebtedness of the Company
or any Subsidiary gives any notice or takes any other action with respect to a
claimed default (other than with respect to Indebtedness in the principal
amount of less than $10 million), the Company shall deliver to the Trustee by
registered or certified mail or facsimile transmission an Officers’ Certificate
specifying such event, notice or other action within five Business Days of its
occurrence.

 

SECTION
1019.                   COMMISSION
REPORTS AND REPORTS TO HOLDERS.

 

Notwithstanding that the Company may not be subject
to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act or
otherwise report on an annual and quarterly basis on forms provided for such
annual and quarterly reporting pursuant to rules and regulations promulgated by
the Commission, the Company will file with the Commission (and provide the
Trustee and Holders with copies thereof (without exhibits), without cost to
each Holder, within 15 days after it files them with the Commission), (a)
within 90 days (or any other time period then in effect under the rules and
regulations of the Exchange Act with respect to the filing of a Form 10-K)
after the end of each fiscal year, annual reports on Form 10-K (or any
successor or comparable form) containing the information required to be
contained therein (or required in such successor or comparable form); (b)
within 45 days (or any other time period then in effect under the rules and
regulations of the Exchange Act with respect to the filing of a Form 10-Q)
after the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of each fiscal year,
reports on Form 10-Q (or any successor or comparable form); (c) promptly from
time to time after the occurrence of an event required to be therein reported,
such other reports on Form 8-K (or any successor or comparable form); and (d)
any other information, documents and other reports which the Company would be
required to file with the Commission if it were subject to Section 13 or 15(d)
of the Exchange Act; provided, however,
the Company shall not be so obligated to file such reports with the Commission
if the Commission does not permit such filing, in which event the Company will
make available such information to prospective purchasers of Notes, in addition
to providing such information to the Trustee and the Holders, in each case
within 15 days after the time the Company would be required to file such
information with the Commission, if it were subject to Sections 13 or 15(d) of
the Exchange Act.  Delivery of such
reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes
only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice
of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained
therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder
(as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’
Certificates).

 

In the event that any direct
or indirect parent corporation of the Company is or becomes a Guarantor of the
Notes, this Indenture will permit the Company to satisfy its

 

90

 

obligations under this Section 1019 with
respect to financial information relating to the Company by furnishing
financial information relating to such direct or indirect parent corporation; provided that the same is accompanied by consolidating
information that explains in reasonable detail the differences between the
information relating to such direct and indirect parent corporation and any of
its Subsidiaries other than the Company and its Subsidiaries, on the one hand,
and the information relating to the Company, the Guarantors and the other
Subsidiaries of the Company on a standalone basis, on the other hand.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, such requirements
shall be deemed satisfied prior to the commencement of the Exchange Offer or
the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement by the filing with the
Commission of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and/or Shelf
Registration Statement within the time periods specified in the Registration
Rights Agreement, and any amendments thereto, with such financial information
that satisfies Regulation S-X of the Securities Act.

 

SECTION
1020.                   SUSPENSION
OF COVENANTS.

 

(a)                 During
any period of time that: (1) the Notes have Investment Grade Ratings from
both Rating Agencies and (2) no Default or Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing under this Indenture (the occurrence of the events described
in the foregoing clauses (1) and (2) being collectively referred to
as a “Covenant Suspension Event”), the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries
shall not be subject to the following provisions of this Indenture:

 

(A) clause (iv) of
Section 801;

 

(B) Section 1009;

 

(C) Section 1010;

 

(D) Section 1012;

 

(E) Section 1013;

 

(F) Section 1014;

 

(G) Section 1015; and

 

(H) Section 1017.

 

(collectively, the “Suspended
Covenants”).  Upon the occurrence of a
Covenant Suspension Event, the amount of Excess Proceeds from Net Proceeds
shall be re-set at zero. In addition, the Guarantees of the Guarantors shall
also be suspended as of such date (the “Suspension Date”).  In the event that the Company and the
Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to the Suspended Covenants for any
period of time as a result of the foregoing, and on any subsequent date (the “Reversion
Date”) one or both of the Rating Agencies withdraws its Investment Grade Rating
or downgrades the rating assigned to the Notes below an Investment Grade Rating
or a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing, then the Company and
the Restricted Subsidiaries

 

91

 

shall thereafter again be
subject to the Suspended Covenants with respect to future events and the
Guarantees shall be reinstated. The period of time between the Suspension Date
and the Reversion Date is referred to in this description as the “Suspension
Period”. Notwithstanding that the Suspended Covenants may be reinstated, no
Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred as a result of a
failure to comply with the Suspended Covenants during the Suspension Period (or
upon termination of the Suspension Period or after that time based solely on
events that occurred during the Suspension Period).

 

(b)                 On the
Reversion Date, all Indebtedness incurred, or Disqualified Stock issued, during
the Suspension Period shall be classified to have been incurred or issued
pursuant to Sections 1010(a) or 1010(b) (in each case, to the extent such
Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock would be permitted to be incurred or issued
thereunder as of the Reversion Date and after giving effect to Indebtedness
incurred or issued prior to the Suspension Period and outstanding on the
Reversion Date). To the extent such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock would
not be so permitted to be incurred or issued pursuant to Section 1010(a) or
1010(b), such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock shall be deemed to have been
outstanding on the Issuance Date, so that it is classified as permitted under
Section 1010(b)(iii). Calculations made after the Reversion Date of the amount
available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 1009 shall be made as
though Section 1009 had been in effect since the Issuance Date and throughout
the Suspension Period, except that no default shall be deemed to have occurred
solely by reason of a Restricted Payment made while that covenant was
suspended.  Accordingly, Restricted
Payments made during the Suspension Period shall reduce the amount available to
be made as Restricted Payments under 1009(a).

 

(c)                 The
Company shall give the Trustee prompt (and in any event not later than five
Business Days after a Covenant Suspension Event) written notice of any Covenant
Suspension Event.  In the absence of such
notice, the Trustee shall assume the Suspended Covenants apply and are in full
force and effect.  The Company shall give
the Trustee prompt (and in any event not later than five Business Days after a
Covenant Suspension Event) written notice of any occurrence of a Reversion
Date.  After any such notice of the
occurrence of a Reversion Date, the Trustee shall assume the Suspended
Covenants apply and are in full force and effect.

SECTION
1101.                   REDEMPTION.

 

The Notes may or shall, as the case may be, be

SECTION
1103.                   ELECTION
TO REDEEM; NOTICE TO TRUSTEE.

 

The election of the Company to redeem any Notes
pursuant to Section 1101 shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution. In case of
any redemption at the election of the Company, the Company shall, at least 60
days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice
shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption
Date and of the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and shall deliver to
the Trustee such documentation and records as shall enable the Trustee to
select the Notes to be redeemed pursuant to Section 1104.

 

SECTION
1104.                   SELECTION
BY TRUSTEE OF NOTES TO BE REDEEMED.

 

If less than all the Notes are to be redeemed, the
particular Notes to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior
to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Notes not
previously called for redemption, in compliance with the requirements of the
principal national securities exchange, if any, on which such Notes are listed,
or, if such Notes are not so listed, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such
other method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate (and in such manner
as complies with applicable legal requirements) and which may provide for the
selection for redemption of portions of the principal of Notes; provided, however, that no such partial
redemption shall reduce the portion of the principal amount of a Note not
redeemed to less than $2,000.

 

The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in
writing of the Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of any Notes
selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.

 

For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the
context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to redemption of Notes
shall relate, in the case of any Note redeemed or to be redeemed only in part,
to the portion of the principal amount of such Note which has been or is to be
redeemed.

 

SECTION
1105.                   NOTICE
OF REDEMPTION.

 

Notice of redemption shall be given in the manner
provided for in Section 106 not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the
Redemption Date, to each Holder to be redeemed. The Trustee shall give notice
of redemption in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense; provided, however, that the Company shall
deliver to the Trustee, at least 45 days prior to the Redemption Date, 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 following
items.

 

All notices of redemption shall state:

 

93

 

(1)                 the Redemption Date,

 

(2)                 the Redemption Price and the amount of
accrued interest to the Redemption Date payable as provided in Section 1107, if
any,

 

(3)                 if less than all Outstanding Notes are to be
redeemed, the identification of the particular Notes (or portion thereof) to be
redeemed, as well as the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and
the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be outstanding after such partial
redemption,

 

(4)                 in case any Note is to be redeemed in part
only, the notice which relates to such Note shall state that on and after the
Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Note, the holder will receive, without
charge, a new Note or Notes of authorized denominations for the principal
amount thereof remaining unredeemed,

 

(5)                 that on the Redemption Date the Redemption
Price (and accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption Date payable as provided
in Section 1107) will become due and payable upon each such Note, or the
portion thereof, to be redeemed, and, unless the Company defaults in making the
redemption payment, that interest on Notes called for redemption (or the
portion thereof) will cease to accrue on and after said date,

 

(6)                 the place or places where such Notes are to
be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest, if
any,

 

(7)                 the name and address of the Paying Agent,

 

(8)                 that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered
to the Paying Agent to collect the Redemption Price,

 

(9)                 the CUSIP number, and that no representation
is made as to the accuracy or correctness of the CUSIP number, if any, listed
in such notice or printed on the Notes, and

 

(10)              the paragraph of the Notes pursuant to which
the Notes are to be redeemed.

 

SECTION
1106.                   DEPOSIT
OF REDEMPTION PRICE.

 

Prior to any Redemption Date, the Company shall
deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting
as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section
1003) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and accrued
interest on, all the Notes which are to be redeemed on that date.

 

SECTION
1107.                   NOTES
PAYABLE ON REDEMPTION DATE.

 

Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid,
the Notes so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and
payable at the Redemption Price therein specified (together with accrued
interest, if any, to the Redemption Date), and from and after

 

94

 

such date (unless the Company shall default in the
payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Notes shall cease to
bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Note for redemption in accordance with
said notice, such Note shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price,
together with accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that installments of
interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be
payable to the Holders of such Notes, or one or more Predecessor Notes,
registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Date
or Special Record Date, as the case may be, according to their terms and the
provisions of Section 307.

 

If any Note called for redemption shall not be so
paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal (and premium, if any)
shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate borne by
the Notes.

 

SECTION
1108.                   NOTES
REDEEMED IN PART.

 

Any Note which is to be redeemed only in part
(pursuant to the provisions of this Article) shall be surrendered at the office
or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 1002
(with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a
written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the
Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or such Holders attorney duly
authorized in writing), and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Note without service charge, a
new Note or Notes, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder,
in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed
portion of the principal of the Note so surrendered, provided, that each such
new Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or integral multiples of
$1,000 in excess thereof.

with the terms hereof and thereof; and (2) in case of any extension of time of
payment or renewal of any Notes or of any such other obligations, the same
shall be 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,
subject, however, in the case of clauses (1) and (2) above, to the limitation
set forth in Section 1205 hereof.

 

95

 

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations
hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or
enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to
enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder with respect to any
provisions hereof or thereof, any release of any other Guarantor, 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 (to the extent
permitted by law) the benefits of diligence, presentment, demand for 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 or any
other Person, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that the
Guarantee of such Guarantor shall not be discharged as to any Note except by
complete performance of the obligations contained in such Note, this Indenture
and such Guarantee.  Each Guarantor
acknowledges that the Guarantee is a guarantee of payment, performance and
compliance when due and not of collection. 
Each of the Guarantors hereby agrees that, in the event of a default in
payment of principal (or premium, if any) or interest on such Note, whether at
its Stated Maturity, by acceleration, purchase or otherwise, legal proceedings
may be instituted by the Trustee on behalf of, or by, the Holder of such Note,
subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Indenture, directly
against each of the Guarantors to enforce such Guarantor’s Guarantee without
first proceeding against the Company or any other Guarantor.  Each Guarantor agrees that if, after the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee or
any of the Holders are prevented by applicable law from exercising their
respective rights to accelerate the Stated Maturity of the Notes, to collect
interest on the Notes, or to enforce or exercise any other right or remedy with
respect to the Notes, such Guarantor shall pay to the Trustee for the account
of the Holder, upon demand therefor, the amount that would otherwise have been
due and payable had such rights and remedies been permitted to be exercised by
the Trustee or any of the Holders.

 

If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any
court or otherwise to return to the Company or any Guarantor, or any custodian,
trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the
Company or any Guarantor, any amount paid by any of them to the Trustee or such
Holder, the Guarantee of each of the Guarantors, to the extent theretofore
discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.  Each Guarantor further agrees that, as
between each Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee on the
other hand, (1) subject to this Article Twelve, the Stated Maturity of the
obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article Five
hereof for the purposes of the Guarantee of such Guarantor notwithstanding any
stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect
of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (2) in the event of any acceleration
of such obligation as provided in Article Five hereof, such obligations
(whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by each
Guarantor for the purpose of the Guarantee of such Guarantor.

 

Each Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect
and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the
Company for liquidation, reorganization, should the Company become insolvent or
make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee
be appointed for all or any significant part of the Company’s assets, and
shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or be
reinstated, as the case may

 

96

 

be, if at any time payment and performance of the
Notes are, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must
otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee on the Notes, whether as a “voidable
preference”, “fraudulent transfer” or otherwise, all as though such payment or
performance had not been made.  In the
event that any payment or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or
returned, the Notes shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be
reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded,
reduced, restored or returned. The form of Notation of Guarantee to be executed
on each Note by each Guarantor is attached as Exhibit B hereto.

 

SECTION 1202.       SEVERABILITY.

 

In case any provision of any Guarantee shall be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and enforceability
of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired
thereby to the extent permitted by applicable law.

 

SECTION 1203.       RESTRICTED SUBSIDIARIES.

 

The Company shall cause any Restricted Subsidiary
required to guarantee payment of the Notes pursuant to the terms and provisions
of Section 1014 to (1) execute and deliver to the Trustee any amendment or
supplement to this Indenture in accordance with the provisions of Article Nine
of this Indenture pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary shall guarantee
all of the obligations on the Notes, whether for principal, premium, if any,
interest (including interest accruing after the filing of, or which would have
accrued but for the filing of, a petition by or against the Company under any
Bankruptcy Law, whether or not such interest is allowed as a claim after such
filing in any proceeding under such law) and other amounts due in connection
therewith (including any fees, expenses and indemnities), on an unsecured
senior subordinated basis and (2) deliver to such Trustee an Opinion of Counsel
reasonably satisfactory to such Trustee to the effect that such amendment or
supplement has been duly executed and delivered by such Restricted Subsidiary
and is in compliance with the terms of this Indenture.  Upon the execution of any such amendment or
supplement, the obligations of the Guarantors and any such Restricted
Subsidiary under their respective Guarantees shall become joint and several and
each reference to the “Guarantor” in this Indenture shall, subject to Section
1208, be deemed to refer to all Guarantors, including such Restricted
Subsidiary.  Such Guarantee shall be
released in accordance with Section 803 and Section 1209.

 

SECTION 1204.       SUBORDINATION OF GUARANTEES.

 

The Guarantee issued by any Guarantor shall be
unsecured senior subordinated obligations of such Guarantor, ranking pari passu
with all other existing and future Pari Passu Indebtedness of such Guarantor,
if any.  The Indebtedness evidenced by
such Guarantee shall be subordinated on the same basis to Senior Indebtedness
of such Guarantor as the Notes are subordinated to Senior Indebtedness under
Article Fourteen.

 

SECTION 1205.       LIMITATION OF GUARANTORS’
LIABILITY.

 

Each Guarantor and by its acceptance hereof each
Holder confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the guarantee
by each such Guarantor pursuant to its Guarantee not constitute a fraudulent
transfer or conveyance for purposes of the Bankruptcy Law, the

 

97

 

Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform
Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law or the provisions
of its local law relating to fraudulent transfer or conveyance.  To effectuate the foregoing intention, the
Holders and each such Guarantor hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations
of such Guarantor under its Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum amount
that will not, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed
liabilities of such Guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from
or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the
obligations of such other Guarantor under its Guarantee or pursuant to this
Section 1205, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee
constituting such fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

 

SECTION 1206.       CONTRIBUTION.

 

In order to provide for just and equitable
contribution among the Guarantors, the Guarantors agree, inter se,
that in the event any payment or distribution is made by any Guarantor (a “Funding
Guarantor”) under a Guarantee, such Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a
contribution from all other Guarantors in a pro rata amount
based on the Adjusted Net Assets (as defined below) of each Guarantor
(including the Funding Guarantor) for all payments, damages and expenses
incurred by that Funding Guarantor in discharging the Company’s obligations
with respect to the Notes or any other Guarantor’s obligations with respect to
the Guarantee of such Guarantor.  “Adjusted
Net Assets” of such Guarantor at any date shall mean the lesser of (1) the
amount by which the fair value of the property of such Guarantor exceeds the
total amount of liabilities, including contingent liabilities (after giving
effect to all other fixed and contingent liabilities incurred or assumed on
such date), but excluding liabilities under the Guarantee of such Guarantor at
such date and (2) the amount by which the present fair salable value of the assets
of such Guarantor at such date exceeds the amount that will be required to pay
the probable liability of such Guarantor on its debts (after giving effect to
all other fixed and contingent liabilities incurred or assumed on such date),
excluding debt in respect of the Guarantee of such Guarantor, as they become
absolute and matured.

 

SECTION 1207.       SUBROGATION.

 

Each Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of
Holders against the Company in respect of any amounts paid by any Guarantor
pursuant to the provisions of Section 1201; provided, however,
that, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Guarantor shall
be entitled to enforce or receive any payments arising out of, or based upon,
such right of subrogation until all amounts then due and payable by the Company
under this Indenture or the Notes shall have been paid in full.

 

SECTION 1208.       REINSTATEMENT.

 

Each Guarantor hereby agrees (and each Person who
becomes a Guarantor shall agree) that the Guarantee provided for in Section
1201 shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at
any time, payment, or any part thereof, of any obligations or interest thereon
is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by a Holder to the Company upon the
bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company or any Guarantor.

 

98

 

SECTION 1209.       RELEASE OF A GUARANTOR.

 

Any Guarantee by a Restricted Subsidiary of the
Notes shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon:

 

(1)                 (A)               any sale, exchange or transfer (by merger or
otherwise) of all of the Company’s Capital Stock in such Guarantor (including
any sale, exchange or transfer following which the applicable Guarantor is no
longer a Restricted Subsidiary) or all or substantially all the assets of such
Guarantor, which sale, exchange or transfer is made in compliance with the
applicable provisions of this Indenture;

 

(B)                the release or discharge of the guarantee by
such Restricted Subsidiary which resulted in the creation of such Guarantee,
except a discharge or release by or as a result of payment under such
guarantee;

 

(C)                if the Company properly designates any
Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary; or

 

(D)                the Legal Defeasance of the Notes under
Section 1302 hereof, or the Covenant Defeasance of the Notes under Section 1303
hereof, or if the Company’s obligations under this Indenture are discharged in
accordance with Section 401; and

 

(2)                 such Guarantor has delivered to the Trustee
an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all
conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction have been
complied with.

 

SECTION 1210.       BENEFITS ACKNOWLEDGED.

 

Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive
direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by
this Indenture and from its guarantee and waivers pursuant to its Guarantees
under this Article Twelve.

 

ARTICLE THIRTEEN

LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND
COVENANT DEFEASANCE

 

SECTION
1301.                   COMPANY’S
OPTION TO EFFECT LEGAL DEFEASANCE OR COVENANT DEFEASANCE.

 

The Company and the Guarantors may, at their option
by Board Resolution, at any time, with respect to the Notes, elect to have
either Section 1302 or Section 1303 be applied to all Outstanding Notes upon
compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article Thirteen.

 

99

 

SECTION
1302.                   LEGAL
DEFEASANCE AND DISCHARGE.

 

Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 1301 of
the option applicable to this Section 1302, the Company and any Guarantor shall
be deemed to have been discharged from the obligations with respect to all
Outstanding Notes on the date the conditions set forth in Section 1304 are
satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Legal
Defeasance means that the Company and each Guarantor shall be deemed to have
paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the Outstanding
Notes, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “Outstanding” only for the
purposes of Section 1305 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to
in (A) and (B) below, and to have satisfied all its other obligations under
such Notes and this Indenture insofar as such Notes are concerned (and the
Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments
acknowledging the same), except for the following which shall survive until
otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (A) the rights of Holders of
Outstanding Notes to receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section
1304 and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the
principal of (and premium, if any, on) and interest on such Notes when such
payments are due, (B) the Company’s obligations with respect to such Notes
under Sections 304, 305, 306, 1002 and 1003, (C) the rights, powers, trusts,
duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder, and the Company’s obligations
in connection therewith and (D) this Article Thirteen.

 

Subject to compliance with this Article Thirteen,
the Company may exercise its option under this Section 1302 notwithstanding the
prior exercise of its option under Section 1303 with respect to the Notes.

 

SECTION
1303.                   COVENANT
DEFEASANCE.

 

Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 1301 of
the option applicable to this Section 1303, the Company and any Guarantor shall
be released from the obligations under any covenant contained in Sections 801
and 802 and in Sections 1006 through 1019 with respect to the Outstanding Notes
on and after the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied
(hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed
not to be “Outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or
declaration or Act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection
with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “Outstanding” for all
other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes will not be
outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, such Covenant
Defeasance means that, with respect to the Outstanding Notes, the Company and
any 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 501(iii), but, except
as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes shall be
unaffected thereby.

 

100

 

SECTION
1304.                   CONDITIONS
TO LEGAL DEFEASANCE OR COVENANT DEFEASANCE.

 

The following shall be the conditions to application
of either Section 1302 or Section 1303 to the Outstanding Notes:

 

(i)                   The Company shall irrevocably have deposited

requirements of the Indenture who shall agree to comply with the provisions of
this Article Thirteen applicable to it) as trust funds in trust for the purpose
of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and
dedicated solely to, the benefit of the Holders of such Notes, cash in U.S.
dollars, 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 selected by the Company, to pay the principal
of, premium, if any, and interest due on the Outstanding Notes on the Stated
Maturity or on the applicable Redemption Date as the case may be, of such
principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Outstanding Notes;

 

(ii)                 in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Company

reasonably acceptable to the Trustee (which opinion may be subject to customary
assumptions and exclusions) confirming that (A) the Company has received from,
or there has been published by, the United States Internal Revenue Service a
ruling or (B) since the Issuance Date, there has been a change in the
applicable U.S. federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and
based thereon such Opinion of Counsel in the United States (which opinion may
be subject to customary assumptions and exclusions) shall confirm that the
Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax
purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to U.S.
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;

 

(iii)                in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the
Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United
States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that, subject to
customary assumptions and exclusions, the Holders will not recognize income,
gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant
Defeasance and will be subject to such 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;

 

(iv)               no Default or Event of Default (other than
resulting from borrowing funds to be applied to make such deposit) shall have
occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit;

 

(v)                 such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance
shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under,
the Senior Credit Facilities or any other material agreement or instrument
(other than this Indenture) to which the Company or any Guarantor is a party or
by which the Company or any Guarantor is bound;

 

101

 

(vi)               the Company shall have delivered to the
Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that, as of the date of such
opinion and subject to customary assumptions and exclusions following the
deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to the effect of any applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’
rights generally under any applicable U.S. federal or state law, and that the
Trustee has a perfected security interest in such trust funds for the ratable
benefit of the Holders;

 

(vii)              the Company shall have delivered to the

Company with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any
creditors of the Company or any Guarantor or others; and

 

(viii)            the Company shall have delivered to the
Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel in the United States
(which Opinion of Counsel may be subject to customary assumptions and
exclusions) each stating that all conditions precedent provided for or relating
to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, have
been complied with.

 

SECTION
1305.                   DEPOSITED
MONEY AND U.S. GOVERNMENT SECURITIES TO BE HELD IN TRUST; OTHER MISCELLANEOUS
PROVISIONS.

 

Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of
Section 1003, all money and Government Securities (including the proceeds
thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively
for purposes of this Section 1305, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 1304 in
respect of the Outstanding Notes shall be held in trust and applied by the
Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to
the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company
acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of
such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal
(and premium, if any) and interest, but such money need not be segregated from
other funds except to the extent required by law. Money and Government
Securities so deposited and held in trust are not subject to Article Fourteen.

 

The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee
against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the
Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 1304 or the principal and
interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other
charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the Outstanding Notes.

 

Anything in this Article Thirteen to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to
time upon Company Request any money or U.S. Government Securities held by it as
provided in Section 1304 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 which would then
be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent legal defeasance or
covenant defeasance, as applicable, in accordance with this Article.

 

102

 

SECTION
1306.                   REINSTATEMENT.

 

If the Trustee or any Paying Agent is unable to
apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with Section 1305 by
reason of any legal proceeding or by any reason of any order or judgment of any
court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting
such application, then the Company’s obligations under this Indenture and the
Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred
pursuant to Section 1302 or 1303, as the case may be, until such time as the
Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with
Section 1305; provided, however,
that if the Company makes any payment of principal of (or premium, if any) or
interest on any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the
Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to
receive such payment from the money and Government Securities held by the
Trustee or Paying Agent.

 

ARTICLE FOURTEEN

SUBORDINATION OF NOTES

 

SECTION
1401.                   NOTES
SUBORDINATE TO SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS.

 

The Company covenants and agrees, and each Holder,
by his acceptance thereof, likewise covenants and agrees, for the benefit of
the holders, from time to time, of Senior Indebtedness that, to the extent and
in the manner hereinafter set forth in this Article, the Indebtedness
represented by the Notes and the payment of the principal of (and premium, if
any) and interest on each and all of the Notes and all other Subordinated Note
Obligations are hereby expressly made subordinate and subject in right of
payment as provided in this Article to the prior payment in full in cash of all
Senior Indebtedness, whether outstanding on the Issuance Date or thereafter
incurred, created, assumed or, except as limited by Section 1014, guaranteed.

 

SECTION
1402.                   PAYMENT
OVER OF PROCEEDS UPON DISSOLUTION, ETC.

 

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, an assignment for the benefit of creditors or any marshalling of the
Company’s assets and liabilities:

 

(1)                 the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be
entitled to receive payment in full in cash of all Obligations due in respect
of such Senior Indebtedness and to have all outstanding Letter of Credit
Obligations fully cash collateralized before the Holders are entitled to receive
any payment with respect to the Subordinated Note Obligations (except that
Holders may receive (i) Permitted Junior Securities, so long as the rights of
holders of Indebtedness under the Senior Credit Facilities are not altered or
impaired without their consent and (ii) payments and other distributions made
from the trusts described in Article Four or Article Thirteen), so long as such
trust at the time of its creation, does not violate the Senior Credit
Facilities); and

 

103

 

(2)                 until all Obligations with respect to Senior
Indebtedness (as provided in subsection (1) above) are paid in full in cash and
all outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations are fully cash collateralized, any
distribution to which Holders would be entitled but for this Article shall be
made to holders of Senior Indebtedness (except that Holders may receive (i)
Permitted Junior Securities, so long as the rights of holders of Indebtedness
under the Senior Credit Facilities are not altered or impaired without their
consent and (ii) payments and other distributions made from the trusts
described in Article Four or Article Thirteen), so long as such trust at the
time of its creation, does not violate the Senior Credit Facilities).

 

SECTION
1403.                   SUSPENSION
OF PAYMENT WHEN SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS IN DEFAULT.

 

The Company may not make any payment or distribution
to the Trustee or any Holder in respect of Subordinated Note Obligations and
may not acquire from the Trustee or any Holder any Notes for cash or property
(other than (i) in the form of Permitted Junior Securities, so long as the
rights of the holders of Indebtedness under the Senior Credit Facilities are
not altered or impaired without their consent or (ii) payments and other
distributions made from the trusts described in Article Four or Article
Thirteen, so long as such trust, at the time of its creation, does not violate
the Senior Credit Facilities) until all Senior Indebtedness has been paid in
full in cash if:

 

(i)                   a default in the payment of any principal of,
premium, if any, or interest on, or of unreimbursed amounts under drawn letters
of credit or in respect of bankers’ acceptances or fees relating to letters of
credit or bankers’ acceptances constituting, Designated Senior Indebtedness
occurs and is continuing beyond any applicable grace period in the agreement,
indenture or other document governing such Designated Senior Indebtedness (a “payment
default”); or

 

(ii)                 a default, other than a payment default, on
Designated Senior Indebtedness occurs and is continuing that then permits
holders of the Designated Senior Indebtedness to accelerate its maturity (a “non-payment
default”) and the Trustee receives a notice of the default (a “Payment Blockage
Notice”) from a Person who may give it pursuant to Section 1413 hereof. No new
period of payment blockage may be commenced unless and until 365 days have
elapsed since the effectiveness of the immediately prior Payment Blockage
Notice. However, if any Payment Blockage Notice within such 365-day period is
given by or on behalf of any holders of Designated Senior Indebtedness (other
than the Bank Agent under the Senior Credit Facilities), the Bank Agent may
give another Payment Blockage Notice within such period. In no event, however,
may the total number of days during which any Payment Blockage Period or
Periods is in effect exceed 179 days in the aggregate during any 365
consecutive day period. 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 cured or waived for a period of not less than 90 days.

 

The Company may and shall resume payments on and
distributions in respect of the Notes and may acquire them upon the earlier of:

 

104

 

(1)                 in the case of a payment default, upon the
date on which such default is cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist or
such Designated Senior Indebtedness shall have been discharged or paid in full
in cash and all outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations shall have been fully
cash collateralized, and

 

(2)                 in case of a nonpayment default, the earlier
of (x) the date on which such nonpayment default is cured or waived, (y) 179
days after the date on which the applicable Payment Blockage Notice is received
(the “Payment Blockage Period”) or (z) the date such Payment Blockage Period
shall be terminated by written notice to the Trustee from the requisite holders
of such Designated Senior Indebtedness necessary to terminate such period or
from their Representative, after which the Company shall resume making any and
all required payments in respect of the Notes, including any missed payments, if
this Article otherwise permits the payment, distribution or acquisition at the
time of such payment or acquisition.

 

SECTION
1404.                   ACCELERATION
OF NOTES.

 

If payment of the Notes is accelerated because of an
Event of Default, the Company shall promptly notify holders of Senior
Indebtedness of the acceleration.

 

SECTION
1405.                   WHEN
DISTRIBUTION MUST BE PAID OVER.

 

In the event that the Trustee or any Holder receives
any payment or distribution of any Subordinated Note Obligations at a time when
such payment or distribution is prohibited by Sections 1402 or 1403, such
payment or distribution shall be held by the Trustee or such Holder for the
benefit of, and shall be paid forthwith over and delivered upon written request
to, the holders of Senior Indebtedness as their interests may appear or to
their Representative under the indenture or other agreement (if any) pursuant
to which such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective
interests may appear, for application to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness
remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay such Senior Indebtedness in
full in cash in accordance with their terms, after giving effect to any
concurrent payment or distribution to or for the benefit of holders of Senior
Indebtedness, and to fully cash collateralize all outstanding Letter of Credit
Obligations.

 

With respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness,
the Trustee undertakes to perform only such obligations on the part of the
Trustee as are specifically set forth in this Article Fourteen, and no implied
covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness
shall be read into the Indenture against the Trustee. The Trustee shall not be
deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, 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 Indebtedness shall be entitled by
virtue of this Article Fourteen, except if such payment or distribution is made
as a result of the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Trustee.
Nothing in this Section 1405 shall affect the obligation of any Person other
than the Trustee to hold such payment or distribution for the benefit of, and
to pay or deliver such payment or distribution over to, the holders of Senior
Indebtedness or their Representative.

 

105

 

SECTION
1406.                   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 Notes that violate this Article, but
failure to give such notice shall not affect the subordination of the Notes to
the Senior Indebtedness as provided in this Article Fourteen.

 

SECTION
1407.                   PAYMENT
PERMITTED IF NO DEFAULT.

 

Nothing contained in this Article or elsewhere in
this Indenture or in any of the Notes shall prevent the Company, at any time
except during the pendency of any case, proceeding, dissolution, liquidation or
other winding up, assignment for the benefit of creditors or other marshalling
of assets and liabilities of the Company referred to in Section 1402 or under
the conditions described in Section 1403, from making payments at any time of
principal of (and premium, if any, on) or interest on the Notes.

 

SECTION
1408.                   SUBROGATION
TO RIGHTS OF HOLDERS OF SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS.

 

Subject to the payment in full of all Senior
Indebtedness in cash, the Holders shall be subrogated (equally and ratably with
the holders of all Pari Passu Indebtedness of the Company) to the rights of the
holders of such Senior Indebtedness to receive payments and distributions of
cash, property and securities applicable to the Senior Indebtedness until the
Subordinated Note Obligations shall be paid in full. For purposes of such
subrogation, no payments or distributions to the holders of Senior Indebtedness
of any cash, property or securities to which the Holders or the Trustee would
be entitled except for the provisions of this Article, and no payments over
pursuant to the provisions of this Article to the holders of Senior
Indebtedness by Holders or on their behalf or by the Trustee, shall, as among
the Company, its creditors other than holders of Senior Indebtedness, and the
Holders, be deemed to be a payment or distribution by the Company to or on
account of the Senior Indebtedness; it being understood that the provisions of
this Article are intended solely for the purpose of determining the relative
rights of the Holders, on the one hand, and the holders of Senior Indebtedness,
on the other hand.

 

SECTION
1409.                   PROVISIONS
SOLELY TO DEFINE RELATIVE RIGHTS.

 

The provisions of this Article are and are intended
solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Holders on the
one hand and the holders of Senior Indebtedness on the other hand. Nothing
contained in this Article or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Notes is
intended to or shall (a) impair, as between the Company and the Holders, the
obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the
Holders the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Notes as and
when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms; or
(b) affect the relative rights against the Company of the Holders and creditors
of the Company other than their rights in relation to holders of Senior
Indebtedness; or (c) prevent the Trustee or any Holder from exercising all
remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under this
Indenture, subject to the rights, if any, under this Article of the holders of
Senior Indebtedness. If the Company fails because of this Article to

 

106

 

pay principal (or premium, if any) or interest on a
Note on the due date, the failure is still a Default or Event of Default.

 

SECTION
1410.                   TRUSTEE
TO EFFECTUATE SUBORDINATION.

 

Each Holder by his 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 provided in this
Article and appoints the Trustee his 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 504 hereof at
least 30 days before the expiration of the time to file such claim, the Bank
Agent (if the Senior Credit Facilities are still outstanding) is hereby
authorized to file an appropriate claim for and on behalf of the Holders.

 

SECTION
1411.                   SUBORDINATION
MAY NOT BE IMPAIRED BY COMPANY.

 

No right of any present or future holder of any
Senior Indebtedness to enforce subordination as herein provided shall at any
time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the
part of the Company or by any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any such
holder, or by any non-compliance by the Company with the terms, provisions and
covenants of this Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof any such
holder may have or be otherwise charged with.

 

If at any time any payment of Obligations with
respect to any Senior Indebtedness is rescinded or must otherwise be returned
upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or liquidation of the Company
or otherwise, the provisions of Article Fourteen shall continue to be effective
or reinstated, as the case may be, to the same extent as though such payments
had not been made.

 

SECTION
1412.                   DISTRIBUTION
OR NOTICE TO REPRESENTATIVE.

 

Whenever a distribution is to be made or a notice
given to holders of Senior Indebtedness, 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 Fourteen, the Trustee and the Holders 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 other Person making any distribution to the
Trustee or to the Holders for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled
to participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness and
other Indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the
amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other acts pertinent
thereto or to this Article Fourteen.

 

SECTION
1413.                   NOTICE
TO TRUSTEE.

 

(a)                 The
Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any fact known to
the Company which would prohibit the making of any payment to or by the Trustee
in respect of the Notes. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article or any
other provision of this

 

107

 

Indenture,
the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts
which would prohibit the making of any payment to or by the Trustee in respect
of the Notes, unless and until the Trustee shall have received written notice
thereof from the Company, the Bank Agent or a holder of Senior Indebtedness or
from any trustee, fiduciary or agent therefor; and, prior to the receipt of any
such written notice, the Trustee, subject to TIA Sections 315(a) through
315(d), shall be entitled in all respects to assume that no such facts exist; provided, however, that, if the Trustee
shall not have received the notice provided for in this Section at least three
Business Days prior to the date upon which by the terms hereof any money may
become payable for any purpose (including, without limitation, the payment of
the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any Note), then, anything
herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall have full
power and authority to receive such money and to apply the same to the purpose
for which such money was received and shall not be affected by any notice to
the contrary which may be received by it within three Business Days prior to
such date.

 

(b)                 Subject
to TIA Sections 315(a) through 315(d), the Trustee shall be entitled to
conclusively rely on the delivery to it of a written notice by a Person
representing himself to be a holder of Senior Indebtedness (or a trustee,
fiduciary or agent therefor) to establish that such notice has been given by a
holder of Senior Indebtedness (or a trustee, fiduciary or agent therefor). In
the event that the Trustee determines in good faith that further evidence is
required with respect to the right of any Person as a holder of Senior
Indebtedness to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this
Article, the Trustee may request such Person to furnish evidence to the
reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of Senior Indebtedness
held by such Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate
in such payment or distribution and any other facts pertinent to the rights of
such Person under this Article and, if such evidence is not furnished, the
Trustee may defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination as
to the right of such Person to receive such payment.

 

SECTION
1414.                   RELIANCE
ON JUDICIAL ORDER OR CERTIFICATE OF LIQUIDATING AGENT.

 

Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the
Company referred to in this Article, the Trustee, subject to TIA Sections
315(a) through 315(d), and the Holders shall be entitled to conclusively rely
upon any order or decree entered by any court of competent jurisdiction in
which such insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, reorganization,
dissolution, winding up or similar case or proceeding is pending, or a
certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, liquidating trustee,
custodian, assignee for the benefit of creditors, agent or other Person making
such payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the Holders, for
the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such payment
or distribution, the holders of Senior Indebtedness 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; provided that such
court, trustee, receiver, custodian, assignee, agent or other Person has been
apprised of, or the order, decree or certificate makes reference to, the
provisions of this Article.

 

108

 

SECTION
1415.                   RIGHTS
OF TRUSTEE AS A HOLDER OF SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS; PRESERVATION OF TRUSTEES’
RIGHTS.

 

The Trustee in its individual capacity shall be
entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article with respect to any Senior
Indebtedness which may at any time be held by it, to the same extent as any
other holder of Senior Indebtedness, and nothing in this Indenture shall
deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder. Nothing in this
Article shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant
to Section 607.

 

SECTION
1416.                   ARTICLE
APPLICABLE TO PAYING AGENTS.

 

In case at any time any Paying Agent other than the
Trustee shall have been appointed by the Company and be then acting hereunder,
the term “Trustee” as used in this Article shall in such case (unless the
context otherwise requires) be construed as extending to and including such
Paying Agent within its meaning as fully for all intents and purposes as if
such Paying Agent were named in this Article in addition to or in place of the
Trustee; provided, however, that
Section 1415 shall not apply to the Company or any Affiliate of the Company if
it or such Affiliate acts as Paying Agent.

 

SECTION
1417.                   NO
SUSPENSION OF REMEDIES.

 

Nothing contained in this Article shall limit the
right of the Trustee or the Holders to take any action to accelerate the
maturity of the Notes pursuant to Article Five or to pursue any rights or
remedies hereunder or under applicable law, except as provided in Article Five.

 

SECTION
1418.                   MODIFICATION
OF TERMS OF SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS.

 

Any renewal or extension of the time of payment of
any Senior Indebtedness or the exercise by the holders of Senior Indebtedness
of any of their rights under any agreement, instrument or other document
creating or evidencing Senior Indebtedness, including, without limitation, the
waiver of default thereunder, may be made or done all without notice to or
assent from the Holders or the Trustee.

 

No compromise, alteration, amendment, modification,
extension, renewal or other change of, or waiver, consent or other action in
respect of, any liability or obligation under or in respect of, or of any of
the terms, covenants or conditions of any agreement, indenture, instrument or
other document under which any Senior Indebtedness is outstanding or of such
Senior Indebtedness, whether or not in accordance with the provisions of any
applicable document, shall in any way alter or affect any of the provisions of
this Article Fourteen or of the Notes relating to the subordination thereof.

 

SECTION
1419.                   CERTAIN
TERMS.

 

For purposes of this Article Fourteen, unless the
context clearly indicates otherwise, any payment or distribution to the Trustee
or any Holder in respect of any Subordinated Note Obligation shall include any
payment or distribution of any kind or character

 

109

 

from any source, whether in cash, property or
securities, by set-off or otherwise, including any repurchase, redemption,
defeasance or acquisition of the Notes and any direct or indirect payment
payable by reason of any other Indebtedness or Obligation being subordinated to
the Notes.

 

SECTION
1420.                   TRUST
MONEYS NOT SUBORDINATED.

 

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the
contrary, payments from cash or the proceeds of Government Securities held in
trust under Article Thirteen hereof by the Trustee (or other qualifying
trustee) and which were deposited in accordance with the terms and conditions
of Article Thirteen hereof and not in violation of Section 1403 hereof for the
payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Notes shall
not be subordinated to the prior payment of any Senior Indebtedness or subject
to the restrictions set forth in this Article Fourteen, and none of the Holders
shall be obligated to pay over any such amount to the Company or any holder of
Senior Indebtedness or any other creditor of the Company.

 

This Indenture may be signed in any number of
counterparts each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but
all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same Indenture.

or Rule 144 (if applicable).

the Trustee as the custodian of the Depository or under such Global Note, and
the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be
entitled to treat the Depository as the absolute owner of such Global Note for

agent of the Company or the Trustee from giving effect to any written
certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depository or
impair, as between the Depository and its Agent Members, the operation of
customary practices of such Depository governing the exercise of the rights of
a holder of a beneficial interest in any Global Note.

Notes; or

 

(y)                                 to exchange such Definitive Notes for an

or exchange:

 

(i)            shall
be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form
reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar, duly executed by the
Holder thereof or its attorney duly authorized in writing; and

 

5

 

(ii)           if

under the Securities Act, pursuant to Section 2.3(b) or pursuant to clause (A),
(B) or (C) below, and are accompanied by the following additional information
and documents, as applicable:

 

(A)          if such Definitive Notes are being
delivered to the Registrar by a Holder for registration in the name of such
Holder, without transfer, a certification from such Holder to that effect; or

 

(B)           if such Definitive Notes are being
transferred to the Company, a certification to that effect; or

 

(C)           if such Definitive Notes are being
transferred (x) pursuant to an exemption from registration in accordance
with Rule 144A, Regulation S or Rule 144 under the Securities
Act; or (y) in reliance upon another exemption from the requirements of the
Securities Act: (i) a certification to that effect (in the form set forth
on the reverse of the Note) and (ii) if the Company so requests, an Opinion of
Counsel or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to it as to the compliance
with the restrictions set forth in the legend set forth in
Section 2.3(e)(i).

 

(b)           Restrictions on Transfer of a
Definitive Note for a Beneficial Interest in a Global Note.  A Definitive Note may not be exchanged
for a beneficial interest in a Rule 144A Global Note, an IAI Global Note or a
Permanent Regulation S Global Note except upon satisfaction of the
requirements set forth below.  Upon
receipt by the Trustee of a Definitive Note, duly endorsed or accompanied by
appropriate instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Trustee,
together with:

 

(i)            certification, in the form set forth on the reverse of
the Note, that such Definitive Note is either (A) being transferred to a QIB in
accordance with Rule 144A, (B) being transferred to an IAI or
(C) being transferred after expiration of the Distribution Compliance
Period by a Person who initially purchased such Note in reliance on Regulation
S to a buyer who elects to hold its interest in such Note in the form of a
beneficial interest in the Permanent Regulation S Global Note; and

 

(ii)           written instructions directing the Trustee to make, or to
direct the Notes Custodian to make, an adjustment on its books and records with
respect to such Rule 144A Global Note (in the case of a transfer pursuant to
clause (b)(i)(A)), IAI Global Note (in the case of a transfer pursuant to
clause (b)(1)(B)) or Permanent Regulation S Global Note (in the case
of a transfer pursuant to clause (b)(i)(B)) to reflect an increase in the
aggregate principal amount of the Notes represented by the Rule 144A Global
Note, IAI Global Note or Permanent Regulation S Global Note, as
applicable, such instructions to contain information regarding the Depository account
to be credited with such increase,

 

6

 

then the Trustee shall
cancel such Definitive Note and cause, or direct the Notes Custodian to cause,
in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between
the Depository and the Notes Custodian, the aggregate principal amount of Notes
represented by the Rule 144A Global Note, IAI Global Note or Permanent
Regulation S Global Note, as applicable, to be increased by the aggregate
principal amount of the Definitive Note to be exchanged and shall credit or
cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such
instructions a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Note, IAI
Global Note or Permanent Regulation S Global Note, as applicable, equal to the
principal amount of the Definitive Note so canceled.  If no Rule 144A Global Notes, IAI Global
Notes or Permanent Regulation S Global Notes, as applicable, are then
outstanding, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate, upon
written order of the Company in the form of an Officers’ Certificate of the
Company, a new Rule 144A Global Note, IAI Global Note or Permanent Regulation S
Global Note, as applicable, in the appropriate principal amount.

 

(c)           Transfer and Exchange of Global

(i)            The transfer and exchange of Global Notes or beneficial
interests therein shall be effected through the Depository, in accordance with
this Indenture (including applicable restrictions on transfer set forth herein,
if any) and the procedures of the Depository therefor.  A transferor of a beneficial interest in a
Global Note shall deliver to the Registrar a written order given in accordance
with the Depository’s procedures containing information regarding the
participant account of the Depository to be credited with a beneficial interest
in the Global Note.  The Registrar shall,
in accordance with such instructions instruct the Depository to credit to the
account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in
the Global Note and to debit the account of the Person making the transfer the
beneficial interest in the Global Note being transferred.

 

(ii)           If the proposed transfer is a transfer of a beneficial
interest in one Global Note to a beneficial interest in another Global Note,
the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase
in the principal amount of the Global Note to which such interest is being
transferred in an amount equal to the principal amount of the interest to be so
transferred, and the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date
and a corresponding decrease in the principal amount of the Global Note from
which such interest is being transferred.

 

(iii)          Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Appendix
(other than the provisions set forth in Section 2.4), a Global Note may
not be transferred as a whole except by the Depository to a nominee of the
Depository or by a nominee of the Depository to the Depository or another
nominee of the Depository or by the Depository or any such nominee to a
successor Depository or a nominee of such successor Depository.

 

(iv)          In the event that Global Note is exchanged for Definitive
Notes to Section 2.4 of this Appendix, prior to the consummation of a
Registered Exchange Offer or the effectiveness of a Shelf Registration
Statement with respect to such Notes, such Notes may be exchanged only in
accordance with

 

7

 

such procedures as are substantially consistent with
the provisions of this Section 2.3 (including the certification requirements
set forth on the reverse of the Initial Notes intended to ensure that such
transfers comply with Rule 144A, Regulation S or another applicable exemption
under the Securities Act, as the case may be) and such other procedures as may
from time to time be adopted by the Company.

 

(d)           Restrictions on Transfer of
Temporary Regulation S Global Notes. 
During the Distribution Compliance Period, beneficial ownership
interests in Temporary Regulation S Global Notes may only be sold, pledged or
transferred in accordance with the Applicable Procedures and only (i) to
the Company, (ii) in an offshore transaction in accordance with
Regulation S (other than a transaction resulting in an exchange for an
interest in a Permanent Regulation S Global Note), (iii) pursuant to an
effective registration statement under the Securities Act, in each case in
accordance with any applicable securities laws of any State of the United
States.

 

(e)           Legend.

 

(i)            Except as permitted by the following
paragraphs (ii), (iii) and (iv), each Note certificate evidencing the
Global Notes (and all Notes issued in exchange therefor or in substitution
thereof) shall bear a legend in substantially the following form:

WITHIN THE MEANING OF REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR (E) PURSUANT TO
ANY OTHER AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE
SECURITIES ACT AND (3) AGREES THAT IT WILL GIVE TO EACH PERSON TO WHOM THIS

PRIOR TO ANY SUCH OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER (I) PURSUANT TO CLAUSE (D) OR (E) TO
REQUIRE THE DELIVERY OF AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, CERTIFICATION AND/OR OTHER
INFORMATION SATISFACTORY TO EACH OF THEM AND (II) IN EACH OF THE FOREGOING
CASES, TO REQUIRE THAT A CERTIFICATION OF TRANSFER IN THE FORM APPEARING ON THE
OTHER SIDE OF THIS NOTE IS COMPLETED AND DELIVERED BY THIS TRANSFEROR TO THE
TRUSTEE. THIS LEGEND WILL BE REMOVED UPON THE REQUEST OF THE HOLDER AFTER THE
RESALE RESTRICTION TERMINATION DATE. AS USED HEREIN, THE TERMS “OFFSHORE
TRANSACTION,” “UNITED STATES” AND “U.S. PERSON” HAVE THE MEANINGS GIVEN TO THEM
BY REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT.

 

(ii)           Upon any sale or transfer of a Transfer Restricted Note
(including any Transfer Restricted Note represented by a Global Note) pursuant
to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, the Registrar shall permit the transferee
thereof to exchange such Transfer Restricted Note for a certificated Note that
does not bear the legend set forth above and rescind any restriction on the
transfer of such Transfer Restricted Note, if the transferor thereof certifies
in writing to the Registrar that such sale or transfer was made in reliance on

(iii)          After a transfer of any Initial Notes or Private Exchange
Notes pursuant to and during the period of the effectiveness of a Shelf

Notes, as the case may be, all requirements pertaining to legends on such

Private Exchange Note in global form, in each case without restrictive transfer
legends, will be available to the transferee of the Holder of such Initial
Notes or Private Exchange Notes upon exchange of such transferring Holder’s
certificated Initial Note or Private Exchange Note or directions to transfer

Private Exchange.

 

(f)            Cancellation or Adjustment of
Global Note.  At such time as all
beneficial interests in a Global Note have either been exchanged for Definitive
Notes, redeemed, purchased or canceled, such Global Note shall be returned to the
Depository for cancellation or retained and canceled by the Trustee.  At any time prior to such cancellation, if
any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for certificated Notes,
redeemed, purchased or canceled, the principal amount of Notes represented by
such Global Note shall be reduced and an adjustment shall be made on the books
and records of the Trustee (if it is then the Notes Custodian for such Global
Note) with respect to such Global Note, by the Trustee or the Notes Custodian,
to reflect such reduction.

 

(g)           No Obligation of the Trustee.

 

(i)            The Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to
any beneficial owner of a Global Note, a member of, or a participant in the

to any ownership interest in the Notes or with respect to the delivery to any
participant, member, beneficial owner or other Person (other than the Depository)
of any notice (including any notice of redemption) or the payment of any
amount, under or with respect to such Notes. 
All notices and communications to be given to the Holders and all
payments to be made to Holders under the Notes shall be given or made only to
or upon the order of the registered Holders (which shall be the Depository or
its nominee in the case of a Global Note). 
The rights of beneficial owners in any Global Note shall be exercised
only through the Depository subject to the applicable rules and procedures of
the Depository.  The Trustee may rely and
shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the
Depository with respect to its members, participants and any beneficial owners.

 

(ii)           The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor,
determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed
under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of
any interest in

any Note (including any transfers between or among
Depository participants, members or beneficial owners in any Global Note) other
than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or
evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly
required by, the terms of this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine
substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

 

2.4           Definitive Notes.

 

(a)           A Global Note deposited with the
Depository or with the Trustee as Notes Custodian for the Depository pursuant
to Section 2.1 shall be transferred to the beneficial owners thereof in
the form of Definitive Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the
principal amount of such Global Note, in exchange for such Global Note, only if
such transfer complies with Section 2.3 hereof and (i) the Depository
notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depository
for such Global Note and the Depository fails to appoint a successor depository
or if at any time such Depository ceases to be a “clearing agency” registered
under the Exchange Act, in either case, and a successor depository is not
appointed by the Company within 90 days of such notice, or (ii) an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (iii) the Company, in its
sole discretion, notifies the Trustee in writing that it elects to cause the
issuance of Definitive Notes under this Indenture.

 

(b)           Any Global Note that is transferable
to the beneficial owners thereof pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be
surrendered by the Depository to the Trustee located at its principal corporate
trust office in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, to be so
transferred, in whole or from time to time in part, without charge, and the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver, upon such transfer of each portion of such
Global Note, an equal aggregate principal amount of Definitive Notes of
authorized denominations.  Any portion of
a Global Note transferred pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be executed,
authenticated and delivered only in denominations of $2,000 principal amount
and any integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof and registered in such
names as the Depository shall direct. 
Any Definitive Note delivered in exchange for an interest in the
Transfer Restricted Note shall, except as otherwise provided by
Section 2.3(e) hereof, bear the applicable restricted notes legend and
definitive notes legend set forth in Exhibit 1 hereto.

 

(c)           Subject to the provisions of
Section 2.4(b) hereof, the registered Holder of a Global Note shall be
entitled to grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Agent
Members and Persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any
action which a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Notes.

 

(d)           In the event of the occurrence of one
of the events specified in Section 2.4(a) hereof, the Company shall
promptly make available to the Trustee a reasonable supply of Definitive Notes
in definitive, fully registered form without interest coupons.  In the event that such Definitive Notes are
not issued, the Company expressly acknowledges, with respect to the right of
any Holder to pursue a remedy pursuant to this Indenture, including pursuant to
Section 507, the right of any beneficial owner of Notes to pursue such remedy
with respect to the portion of the Global Note that represents such beneficial
owner’s Notes as if such Definitive Notes had been issued.

[FORM OF REVERSE SIDE OF
INITIAL NOTE]

81⁄2% Senior Subordinated Note due 2015

 

1.             Principal and Interest; Subordination

 

The Company will pay the
principal of this Note on February 1, 2015.

 

The Company promises to pay
interest and Special Interest, if any, on the principal amount of this Note on
each Interest Payment Date, as set forth below, at the rate of 81⁄2% per annum
(subject to adjustment as provided below).

 

Interest, and Special
Interest, if any, will be payable semi-annually (to the Holders of record of
the Notes (or any predecessor Notes) at the close of business on January 15 or July
15 immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date) on each Interest Payment
Date, commencing August 1, 2005.

 

The Holder of this Note is
entitled to the benefits of the Registration Rights Agreement, dated January
31, 2005, among the Company, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers named
therein (the “Registration Rights Agreement”).

 

Interest on this Note will
accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no
interest has been paid, from January 31, 2005 [; provided that, if there is no existing default in the
payment of interest and if this Note is authenticated between a Regular Record
Date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment
Date, interest shall accrue from such Interest Payment Date].  Interest will be computed on the basis of a
360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

 

The Company shall pay
interest and Special Interest if any, on overdue principal and premium, if any,
and interest on overdue installments of interest, to the extent lawful, at a
rate per annum equal to the rate of interest applicable to the Notes.

 

The indebtedness evidenced
by the Notes is, to the extent and in the manner provided in the Indenture,
subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all
Senior Indebtedness, and this Note is issued subject to such provisions.  Each Holder of this Note, by accepting the
same, (a) agrees to and shall be bound by such provisions,
(b) authorizes and directs the Trustee on its behalf to take such action
as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination as provided
in the Indenture and (c) appoints the Trustee its attorney in-fact for such
purpose.

 

2.             Method of Payment.

 

The Company will pay
interest (except defaulted interest) on the principal amount of the Notes on
each February 1 and August 1 to the Persons who are Holders (as reflected in
the Note Register at the close of business on January 15 and July 15
immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date), in each case, even if the
Note is cancelled on registration of transfer or registration of exchange after
such Regular Record Date; provided
that, with respect to the payment of principal, the Company will make payment
to the Holder that surrenders this Note to any Paying Agent on or after
February 1, 2015.

The Company will pay principal
(premium, if any) and interest in money of the United States that at the time
of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.  However, the Company may pay principal
(premium, if any) and interest by its check payable in such money.  The Company may pay interest on the Notes
either (a) by mailing a check for such interest to a Holder’s registered
address (as reflected in the Note Register) or (b) by wire transfer to an
account located in the United States maintained by the payee.  If a payment date is a date other than a
Business Day at a place of payment, payment may be made at that place on the
next succeeding day that is a Business Day and no interest shall accrue for the
intervening period.

 

3.             Paying Agent and Note Registrar.

 

Initially, The Bank of New
York Trust Company, N.A., a national banking association (the “Trustee”), will
act as Paying Agent and Note Registrar. 
The Company may change any Paying Agent or Note Registrar upon written
notice thereto.  The Company, any Subsidiary
or any Affiliate of any of them may act as Paying Agent, Note Registrar or
co-registrar.

 

4.             Indenture.

 

The Company issued the Notes
under an Indenture dated as of January 31, 2005 (the “Indenture”), among the
Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee. 
Capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture unless
otherwise indicated.  The terms of the
Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the
Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act.  The Notes are subject to all such terms, and
Holders are referred to the Indenture and the Trust Indenture Act for a
statement of all such terms.  To the
extent permitted by applicable law, in the event of any inconsistency between
the terms of this Note and the terms of the Indenture, the terms of the
Indenture shall control.

 

The Notes are unsecured
senior obligations of the Company.  The
Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of the Notes.

 

5.             Redemption.

 

Optional Redemption.  At
any time on or prior to February 1, 2010, the Company may redeem all or a part
of the Notes, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice mailed
by first-class mail to each Holder’s registered address, at a redemption price
equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes redeemed plus the Applicable
Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest and Special Interest, if any, to
the Redemption Date, subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant
record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date.

30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice by first class mail, postage
prepaid, with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder of Notes to the address of
such Holder appearing in the Note Register at the Redemption Prices (expressed
as percentages of principal amount) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid
interest thereon and Special Interest, if any, to the applicable Redemption
Date, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to

principal amount of Notes issued under the Indenture at a redemption price
equal to 108.500% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and
unpaid interest thereon and Special Interest, if any, to the applicable
Redemption Date, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant
record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date, with
the net proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings; provided that at least 60% of the sum of the aggregate
principal amount of Notes originally issued under the Indenture remains
outstanding immediately after the occurrence of each such redemption; provided further that each such redemption
occurs within 90 days of the date of closing of each such Equity Offering.

 

6.             Repurchase upon a Change of Control and Asset Sales.

 

Upon the occurrence of
(a) a Change of Control, unless the Company has elected to redeem the
Notes in connection with such Change of Control, the Holders of the Notes will
have the right to require that the Company purchase such Holder’s outstanding
Notes, in whole or in part, at a purchase price of 101% of the principal amount
thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Special Interest, if any, to the
date of purchase, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant
record date to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date and
(b) Asset Sales, the Company may be obligated to make offers to purchase
Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness of the Company with a portion of the Net
Proceeds of such Asset Sales at a redemption price of 100% of the principal
amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of
purchase.

 

7.             Denominations; Transfer; Exchange.

 

The Notes are in registered
form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 principal amount and whole
multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.  A
Holder may transfer or exchange Notes in accordance with the Indenture.  The Note 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 Note Registrar need not
register the transfer or exchange of any Notes selected for redemption (except,
in the case of a Note to be redeemed in part, the portion of the Note not to be
redeemed) or any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to
be redeemed or 15 days before an interest payment date.

 

8.             Persons Deemed Owners.

 

A registered Holder may be
treated as the owner of a Note for all purposes.

 

6

 

9.             Unclaimed Money.

 

If money for the payment of
principal (premium, if any) or interest remains unclaimed for two years, the
Trustee and the Paying Agent will pay the money back to the Company at its
written request.  After that, Holders entitled
to the money must look to the Company for payment, unless an abandoned property
law designates another Person, and all liability of the Trustee and such Paying
Agent with respect to such money shall cease.

 

10.           Discharge and Defeasance Prior to Redemption or
Maturity.

 

If the Company irrevocably
deposits, or causes to be deposited, with the Trustee money or Government
Securities sufficient to pay the then outstanding principal of (premium, if
any) and accrued interest on the Notes (a) to Redemption Date or Maturity,
the Company will be discharged from its obligations under the Indenture and the
Notes, except in certain circumstances for certain covenants thereof, and
(b) to the Stated Maturity, the Company will be discharged from certain
covenants set forth in the Indenture.

 

11.           Amendment; Supplement; Waiver.

 

Subject to certain
exceptions, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the
consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of
the Outstanding Notes, and any existing Default or Event of Default or
compliance with any provision may be waived with the consent of the Holders of
not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding
Notes.  Without notice to or the consent
of any Holder, the parties thereto may amend or supplement the Indenture or the
Notes to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or
inconsistency and make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of
any Holder.

 

12.           Restrictive Covenants.

 

The Indenture contains
certain covenants, including covenants with respect to the following matters:
(i) Restricted Payments; (ii) Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance
of Disqualified Stock; (iii) Liens; (iv) transactions with Affiliates;
(v) dividend and other payment restrictions affecting Restricted
Subsidiaries; (vi) guarantees of Indebtedness by Restricted Subsidiaries;
(vii) incurrence of other Pari Passu Indebtedness; (viii) merger and
certain transfers of assets; (ix) purchase of Notes upon a Change in
Control; and (x) disposition of proceeds of Asset Sales.  Within 120 days (or the successor time period
then in effect under the rules and regulations of the Exchange Act) after the
end of each fiscal year, the Company must report to the Trustee on compliance
with such limitations.

 

13.           Successor Persons.

 

When a successor Person or
other entity assumes all the obligations of its predecessor under the Notes and
the Indenture, the predecessor Person will be released from those obligations.

 

7

 

14.           Remedies for Events of Default.

 

If an Event of Default, as
defined in the Indenture, occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders
of at least 30% in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes may declare all
the Notes to be immediately due and payable; provided,
however, that, so long as any Indebtedness permitted to be incurred
under the Indenture as part of the Senior Credit Facilities shall be
outstanding, no such acceleration shall be effective until the earlier of (1)
acceleration of any such Indebtedness under the Senior Credit Facilities, or
(2) five Business Days after the giving of written notice of such acceleration
to the Company and the Bank Agent.  If a
bankruptcy or insolvency default with respect to the Company or any of its
Significant Subsidiaries occurs and is continuing, the Notes automatically
become immediately due and payable. 
Subject to the provisions of the Indenture relating to the duties of the
Trustee, in case an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee
shall be under no obligation to exercise any rights or powers under the
Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders of the Notes unless
such Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity satisfactory to
it against any cost, liability or expense. 
Subject to certain restrictions, the Holders of not less than a majority
in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes are given the right to direct the
time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to
the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee.  The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow
any direction that conflicts with law or the Indenture or any Guarantee or that
the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder
of a Note or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability.

 

15.           Guarantees.

 

The Company’s obligations
under the Notes are fully, irrevocably and unconditionally guaranteed on an
unsecured senior subordinated basis, to the extent set forth in the Indenture,
by each of the Guarantors.

 

16.           Trustee Dealings with Company.

 

The Trustee under the
Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or
pledgee of Notes and may make loans to, accept deposits from, perform services

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This certificate is
delivered to request a transfer of $          principal
amount of the 81⁄2% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015 (the “Notes”) of Accuride
Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”).

 

Upon transfer, the Notes
would be registered in the name of the new beneficial owner as follows:

 

	
  Name:

The undersigned represents
and warrants to you that:

 

1.             We are an institutional “accredited investor”
(as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)), purchasing for our own account or for
the account of such an institutional “accredited investor” at least $250,000
principal amount of the Notes, and we are acquiring the Notes not with a view
to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution in violation of
the Securities Act.  We have such
knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of
evaluating the merits and risks of our investment in the Notes, and we invest
in or purchase securities similar to the Notes in the normal course of our
business.  We, and any accounts for which
we are acting, are each able to bear the economic risk of our or its
investment.

 

2.             We understand that the Notes have not been
registered under the Securities Act and, unless so registered, may not be sold
except as permitted in the following sentence. 
We agree on our own behalf and on behalf of any investor account for
which we are purchasing Notes to offer, sell or otherwise transfer such Notes
prior to the date that is two years after the later of the date of original
issue and the last date on which the Company or any affiliate of the Company
was the owner of such Notes (or any predecessor thereto) (the “Resale
Restriction Termination Date”) only (i) to the Company, (ii) in the
United States to a person whom the seller reasonably believes is a qualified
institutional buyer in a transaction meeting the requirements of

 

 

Rule 144A, (iii) to an institutional “accredited investor” within
the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act
that is an institutional accredited investor purchasing for its own account or
for the account of an institutional accredited investor, in each case in a
minimum principal amount of the Notes of $250,000, (iv) outside the United
States in a transaction complying with the provisions of Rule 904 under the
Securities Act, (v) pursuant to an exemption from registration under the
Securities Act provided by Rule 144 (if available) or (vi) pursuant to an
effective registration statement under the Securities Act, in each of cases (i)
through (vi) subject to any requirement of law that the disposition of our
property or the property of such investor account or accounts be at all times
within our or their control and in compliance with any applicable state
securities laws.  The foregoing
restrictions on resale will not apply subsequent to the Resale Restriction
Termination Date.  If any resale or other
transfer of the Notes is proposed to be made pursuant to clause (iii)
above prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date, the transferor shall
deliver a letter from the transferee substantially in the form of this letter
to the Company and the Trustee, which shall provide, among other things, that
the transferee is an institutional “accredited investor” within the meaning of
Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act and that it is
acquiring such Notes for investment purposes and not for distribution in
violation of the Securities Act.  Each
purchaser acknowledges that the Company and the Trustee reserve the right prior
to the offer, sale or other transfer prior to the Resale Restriction
Termination Date of the Notes pursuant to clause (iii), (iv) or (v)
above to require the delivery of an opinion of counsel, certifications or other
information satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee.

OR PRIVATE EXCHANGE NOTE]

 

81⁄2% Senior Subordinated Note
due 2015

 

1.             Principal
and Interest; Subordination.

 

The Company will pay the principal of this Note on
February 1, 2015.

 

The Company promises to pay interest and Special
Interest, if any, on the principal amount of this Note on each Interest Payment
Date, as set forth below, at the rate of 81⁄2% per annum (subject to adjustment
as provided below) except that interest accrued on this Note pursuant to the
fourth paragraph of this Section 1 for periods prior to the applicable dates on
which the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or Shelf Registration Statement
(as such terms are defined in the Registration Rights Agreement referred to
below) will accrue at the rate or rates borne by the Notes from time to time
during such periods.

 

Interest, and Special Interest, if any, will be
payable semi-annually (to the Holders of record of the Notes (or any
predecessor Notes) at the close of business on February 1 or August 1
immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date) on each Interest Payment Date,
commencing August 1, 2005.

 

The Holder of this Note is entitled to the benefits of
the Registration Rights Agreement, dated January 31, 2005, among the Company,
the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers named therein (the “Registration
Rights Agreement”).

 

Interest on this Note will accrue from the most recent
date to which interest has been paid on this Note or the Note surrendered in exchange
herefor or, if no interest has been paid, from January 31, 2005; provided that, if there is no existing
default in the payment of interest and if this Note is authenticated between a
Regular Record Date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding
Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such Interest Payment
Date.  Interest will be computed on the
basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

 

The Company shall pay interest and Special Interest if
any, on overdue principal and premium, if any, and interest on overdue
installments of interest, to the extent lawful, at a rate per annum equal to
the rate of interest applicable to the Notes.

 

The indebtedness evidenced by the Notes is, to the
extent and in the manner provided in the Indenture, subordinate and subject in
right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, and
this Note is issued subject to such provisions. 
Each Holder of this Note, by accepting the same, (a) agrees to and
shall be bound by such provisions, (b) authorizes and directs the Trustee
on its behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to
effectuate the subordination as provided in the Indenture and (c) appoints the
Trustee its attorney in-fact for such purpose.

2.             Method
of Payment.

 

The Company will pay interest (except defaulted
interest) on the principal amount of the Notes on each February 1 and August 1
to the Persons who are Holders (as reflected in the Note Register at the close
of business on January 15 and July 15 immediately preceding the Interest
Payment Date), in each case, even if the Note is cancelled on registration of
transfer or registration of exchange after such Regular Record Date; provided that, with respect to the payment
of principal, the Company will make payment to the Holder that surrenders this
Note to any Paying Agent on or after February 1, 2015.

 

The Company will pay principal (premium, if any) and
interest in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal
tender for payment of public and private debts. 
However, the Company may pay principal (premium, if any) and interest by
its check payable in such money.  The
Company may pay interest on the Notes either (a) by mailing a check for such
interest to a Holder’s registered address (as reflected in the Note Register)
or (b) by wire transfer to an account located in the United States maintained
by the payee.  If a payment date is a
date other than a Business Day at a place of payment, payment may be made at
that place on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day and no interest
shall accrue for the intervening period.

 

3.             Paying
Agent and Note Registrar.

 

Initially, The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A., a
national banking association (the “Trustee”), will act as Paying Agent and Note
Registrar.  The Company may change any
Paying Agent or Note Registrar upon written notice thereto.  The Company, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate
of any of them may act as Paying Agent, Note Registrar or co-registrar.

 

4.             Indenture.

 

The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture dated
as of January 31, 2005 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Guarantors and
the Trustee.  Capitalized terms herein
are used as defined in the Indenture unless otherwise indicated.  The terms of the Notes include those stated
in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust
Indenture Act.  The Notes are subject to
all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the Trust
Indenture Act for a statement of all such terms.  To the extent permitted by applicable law, in
the event of any inconsistency between the terms of this Note and the terms of
the Indenture, the terms of the Indenture shall control.

 

The Notes are unsecured senior obligations of the
Company.  The Indenture does not limit
the aggregate principal amount of the Notes.

 

5.             Redemption.

 

Optional Redemption.  At any time on or prior to February 1, 2010,
the Company may redeem all or a part of the Notes, upon not less than 30 nor

issued under the Indenture remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence
of each such redemption; provided further that
each such redemption occurs within 90 days of the date of closing of each
such Equity Offering.

 

6.             Repurchase
upon a Change of Control and Asset Sales.

 

Upon the occurrence of (a) a Change of Control,
unless the Company has elected to redeem the Notes in connection with such
Change of Control, the Holders of the Notes will have the right to require that
the Company purchase such Holder’s outstanding Notes, in whole or in part, at a
purchase price of 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid
interest and Special Interest, if any, to the date of purchase, subject to the
right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest on
the relevant interest payment date and (b) Asset Sales, the Company may be
obligated to make offers to purchase Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness of the
Company with a portion of the Net Proceeds of such Asset Sales at a redemption
price of 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest,
if any, to the date of purchase.

appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees
required by law or permitted by the Indenture. 
The Note Registrar need not register the transfer or exchange of any
Notes selected for redemption (except, in the case of a Note to be redeemed in
part, the portion of the Note not to be redeemed) or any Notes for a period of
15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or 15 days before an

Deemed Owners.

 

A registered Holder may be treated as the owner of a
Note for all purposes.

 

9.             Unclaimed
Money.

 

If money for the payment of principal (premium, if
any) or interest remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee and the Paying
Agent will pay the money back to the Company at its written request.  After that, Holders entitled to the money must
look to the Company for payment, unless an abandoned property law designates
another Person, and all liability of the Trustee and such Paying Agent with
respect to such money shall cease.

 

10.           Discharge
and Defeasance Prior to Redemption or Maturity.

 

If the Company irrevocably deposits, or causes to be
deposited, with the Trustee money or Government Securities sufficient to pay
the then outstanding principal of (premium, if any) and accrued interest on the
Notes (a) to Redemption Date or Maturity, the Company will be discharged
from its obligations under the Indenture and the Notes, except in certain
circumstances for certain covenants thereof, and (b) to the Stated
Maturity, the Company will be discharged from certain covenants set forth in
the Indenture.

 

11.           Amendment;
Supplement; Waiver.

 

Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the
Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at
least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, and
any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision may
be waived with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes.  Without notice to or the consent of any
Holder, the parties thereto may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Notes
to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or
inconsistency and make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of
any Holder.

 

12.           Restrictive
Covenants.

 

The Indenture contains certain covenants, including
covenants with respect to the following matters: (i) Restricted Payments;
(ii) Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock; (iii)
Liens; (iv) transactions with Affiliates; (v) dividend and other
payment restrictions affecting Restricted Subsidiaries; (vi) guarantees of
Indebtedness by Restricted Subsidiaries; (vii) incurrence of other Pari
Passu Indebtedness; (viii) merger and certain transfers of assets;
(ix) purchase of Notes upon a Change in Control; and (x) disposition
of proceeds of Asset Sales.  Within 120
days (or the successor time period then in effect under the rules and

 

6

 

regulations of the
Exchange Act) after the end of each fiscal year, the Company must report to the
Trustee on compliance with such limitations.

 

13.           Successor
Persons.

 

When a successor Person or other entity assumes all
the obligations of its predecessor under the Notes and the Indenture, the
predecessor Person will be released from those obligations.

 

14.           Remedies
for Events of Default.

 

If an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture,
occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 30% in
principal amount of the Outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be
immediately due and payable; provided, however,
that, so long as any Indebtedness permitted to be incurred under the Indenture
as part of the Senior Credit Facilities shall be outstanding, no such
acceleration shall be effective until the earlier of (1) acceleration of any
such Indebtedness under the Senior Credit Facilities, or (2) five Business Days
after the giving of written notice of such acceleration to the Company and the
Bank Agent.  If a bankruptcy or
insolvency default with respect to the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries
occurs and is continuing, the Notes automatically become immediately due and
payable.  Subject to the provisions of
the Indenture relating to the duties of the Trustee, in case an Event of
Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee shall be under no obligation to
exercise any rights or powers under the Indenture at the request or direction
of any of the Holders of the Notes unless such Holders have offered to the
Trustee reasonable indemnity satisfactory to it against any cost, liability or expense.  Subject to certain restrictions, the Holders
of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes are
given the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any
proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust
or power conferred on the Trustee.  The
Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or
the Indenture or any Guarantee or that the Trustee determines is unduly
prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder of a Note or that would involve
the Trustee in personal liability.

 

15.           Guarantees.

 

The Company’s obligations under the Notes are fully,
irrevocably and unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured senior subordinated
basis, to the extent set forth in the Indenture, by each of the Guarantors.

 

16.           Trustee
Dealings with Company.

 

The Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or
any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may make loans
to, accept deposits from, perform services for, and otherwise deal with, the
Company and its Affiliates as if it were not the Trustee.

 

17.           Authentication.

 

This Note shall not be valid until the Trustee signs
the certificate of authentication on the other side of this Note.

 

7

 

18.           Abbreviations.

 

Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a

(= 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).

 

19.           CUSIP
Numbers.

 

Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the
Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company has caused
CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes and has directed the Trustee to 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 Notes or as contained in any notice of
redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers
placed thereon.

 

20.           Holders’
Compliance with the Registration Rights Agreement.

 

Each Holder of a Note, by acceptance hereof,
acknowledges and agrees to the provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement,
including the obligations of the Holders with respect to a registration and the
indemnification of the Company to the extent provided therein.

Law.

 

THIS SECURITY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH,
THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

 

The Company will furnish to any Holder upon written
request and without charge a copy of the Indenture.  Requests may be made to Accuride Corporation,
7140 Office Circle, Evansville, Indiana 47715, Attention: General Counsel.

FORM OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE

TO BE DELIVERED BY SUBSEQUENT GUARANTORS

 

SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE (this “Supplemental Indenture”),
dated as of                 ,
200  , among                   
(the “Guaranteeing Subsidiary”), a subsidiary of Accuride Corporation (or its
permitted successor), a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), the Company, the
other Guarantors (as defined in the Indenture referred to herein) and The Bank
of New York Trust Company, N.A., as trustee under the Indenture referred to
below (the “Trustee”).

 

W I T N E S S E T H

 

WHEREAS, the Company has heretofore executed and
delivered to the Trustee an indenture (the “Indenture”), dated as of January
31, 2005 providing for the issuance of 81⁄2% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015
(the “Notes”);

 

WHEREAS, the Indenture provides that under certain
circumstances the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall execute and deliver to the
Trustee a supplemental indenture pursuant to which the Guaranteeing Subsidiary
shall unconditionally guarantee all of the Company’s Obligations under the
Notes and the Indenture on the terms and conditions set forth herein (the “Guarantee”);
and

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 901 of the Indenture, the
Trustee is authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and
for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby
acknowledged, the Guaranteeing Subsidiary and the Trustee mutually covenant and
agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes as follows:

 

1.             CAPITALIZED
TERMS.  Capitalized terms used herein
without definition shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

 

2.             AGREEMENT
TO GUARANTEE.  The Guaranteeing
Subsidiary hereby agrees to provide an unconditional Guarantee on the terms and
subject to the conditions set forth in the Note Guarantee and in the Indenture
including but not limited to Article 12 thereof.

 

3.             NO
RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS.  No past,
present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, stockholder or
agent of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary, as such, shall have any liability for any
obligations of the Company or any Guaranteeing Subsidiary under the Notes, any
Guarantees, the Indenture or this Supplemental Indenture or for any claim based
on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation.  Each Holder of the Notes by accepting a Note
waives and releases all such liability. 
The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the
Notes.  Such waiver may not be effective
to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws and it is the view of
the Commission that such a waiver is against public policy.

 

 

4.             GOVERNING
LAW.  THIS SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE SHALL
BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW
YORK.

 

5.             COUNTERPARTS.  The parties may sign any number of copies of

are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

 

7.             THE
TRUSTEE.  The Trustee shall not be
responsible in any manner whatsoever for or in respect of the validity or
sufficiency of this Supplemental Indenture or for or in respect of the recitals
contained herein, all of which recitals are made solely by the Guaranteeing Subsidiary
and the Company.

of Registrable Securities.  A Person
is deemed to be a Holder of Registrable Securities whenever such Person owns
Registrable Securities or has the right to acquire such Registrable Securities,
whether or not such acquisition has actually been affected and disregarding any
legal restrictions upon the exercise of such right, and such Person has agreed
in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement.

 

3.                                      Demand
Registration.

 

(a)                                  Subject
to the provisions of the Stockholders Agreement and this Section 3, KKR
Holders which, individually or in the aggregate, at the time of the request
provided for below, hold at least 10% of the Issuer’s issued and outstanding
Common Stock, may, at any time and from time to time, make a written request to
the Issuer for registration, on the appropriate registration form, as provide
by Section 3(d) below, under and in accordance with the provisions of the
Securities Act, of all or part of the Registrable Securities then held by such KKR
Holders.  Subject to the provisions of the
Stockholders Agreement and this Section 3, upon the earlier to occur of
(i) the closing of the Issuer IPO, and (ii) the fifth anniversary of the
Closing Date, Trimaran Holders, which, individually or in the aggregate, at the
time of the request provided for below, hold at least 10% of the Issuer’s
issued and outstanding Common Stock, may, at any time and from time to time,
make a written request to the Issuer for registration on the appropriate
registration form, as provide by Section 3(d) below, under and in
accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act, of all or part of the
Registrable Securities then held by such Trimaran Holders.

 

(b)                                 Promptly
upon receipt of any such request contemplated by this Section 3(a) (but in
no event more than five business days thereafter), the Issuer will serve
written notice (the “Demand Notice”) of such registration request to all
Holders (including Minority Stockholders and Management Holders deemed Holders
pursuant to Section 11 hereof), and the Issuer will include in such
registration all Registrable Securities of any such Holder with respect

 

4

 

to which the Issuer has received
written requests for inclusion therein within 10 days after the Demand Notice
has been given to the applicable Holders. 
All requests made pursuant to this Section 3 will specify the
aggregate amount of Registrable Securities to be registered and will also
specify the intended methods of disposition thereof.

 

(c)                                  Issuer’s
Right to Defer Registration.  If the
Issuer is requested to effect a Demand Registration and the Issuer furnishes to
the Stockholders requesting such registration a copy of a resolution of the
Board certified by the secretary of the Issuer stating that in the good faith
judgment of the Board it would be adverse to the Issuer and its securityholders
for such registration statement to be filed on or before the date such filing
would otherwise be required hereunder, the Issuer shall have the right to defer
such filing for a period of not more than 90 days after receipt of the request
for such registration from such Stockholders, provided, however, that the
Issuer shall not utilize this right more than once in any twelve month period.

 

(d)                                 Registration
Statement Form.  Registrations under
this Section 3 shall be on such appropriate registration form of the SEC
(i) as shall be selected by the Issuer and as shall be reasonably acceptable to
the Stockholders exercising their demand registration rights hereunder and (ii)
as shall permit the disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance
with the intended method or methods of disposition specified in the Stockholders’
request for such registration.  If, in
connection with any registration under this Section 3 which is proposed by
the Issuer to be on Form S-3 or any successor form to such Form, the managing
underwriter, if any, shall advise the Issuer in writing that in its opinion the
use of another permitted form is of material importance to the success of the
offering, then such registration shall be on such other permitted form.

 

(e)                                  Expenses.  The Issuer shall pay all Registration
Expenses in connection with each registration of Registrable Securities
requested pursuant to this Section 3.

 

(f)                                    Priority
on Demand Registrations.  If the
managing underwriter or agent of a Demand Registration advises the Issuer in
writing that in its opinion the number of securities requested to be included
in such Demand Registration exceeds the number which can be sold in the
offering covered by such Demand Registration without a significant adverse
effect on the price, timing or distribution of the securities offered, the
Issuer will include in such registration only the number of securities that, in
the opinion of such underwriter or agent, can be sold without a significant
adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the securities offered,
selected pro rata among the Holders which have
requested to be included in such Demand Registration based upon the relative proportionate
total holdings of Registrable Securities to the extent necessary to reduce the
total amount of securities to be included in such offering to the amount
recommended by such underwriters or agent. 
In such event, the right of any Holder to include his or her Registrable
Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s
participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s
Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein.  All Holders proposing to distribute their
securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement
in customary form with the underwriters selected for such underwriting.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect
to the underwriting agreement or any other documents reasonably required under
such agreement, (i) no Holder shall be required to make any representation or

 

5

 

warranty with
respect to or on behalf of the Issuer or any other stockholder of the Issuer,
and (ii) the liability of any Holder shall be limited as provided in Section 8(b)
hereof.

 

The Issuer and
other holders of securities of the Issuer may include such securities in such
Registration if, but only if, such underwriter or agent concludes that such
inclusion will not interfere with the successful marketing of all the
Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration.

 

(g)                                 Selection
of Underwriters.  If any distribution
pursuant to a Demand Registration involves an Underwritten Offering, the Holder
holding the most Registrable Securities included in such Demand Registration
(including Registrable Securities of its Affiliates included in such Demand
Registration) shall have the right to select the managing underwriter or
underwriters to administer the underwritten offering, which managing underwriters
shall be a firm of nationally recognized standing and shall be reasonably satisfactory
to the Issuer.

 

4.                                      Piggyback
Registrations.

 

(a)                                  Participation.  Subject to Sections 4(b) hereof, if at any time
after the date hereof the Issuer files a Registration Statement (other than a
registration on Form S-4 or S-8 or any successor form to such Forms or any registration
of securities as it relates to an offering and sale to employees or management of
the Issuer pursuant to any employee stock plan or other employee benefit plan arrangement)
with respect to an offering that includes any shares of Common Stock (other
than pursuant to Section 3 hereof), then the Issuer shall give prompt
notice (the “Piggyback Notice”) to the Holders (including the Minority
Stockholders and the Management Stockholders as provided by Section 11)
and such Holders shall be entitled to include in such Registration Statement
the Registrable Securities held by them. 
The Piggyback Notice shall offer the Holders the opportunity to register
such number of shares of Registrable Securities as each Holder may request and
shall set forth (i) the anticipated filing date of such Registration Statement
and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock that is proposed to be included
in such Registration Statement.  The
Issuer shall include in such Registration Statement such shares of Registrable
Securities for which it has received written requests to register such shares
within 7 days after the Piggyback Notice has been given.

 

(b)                                 Underwriter’s
Cutback.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if a Registration pursuant to this Section 4 involves an
Underwritten Offering and the managing underwriter or underwriters of such
proposed Underwritten Offering delivers an opinion to the Issuer that the total
or kind of securities which such Holders and any other Persons intend to
include in such offering would be reasonably likely to adversely affect the
price, timing or distribution of the securities offered in such offering, then
the Issuer shall include in such Registration (i) first, 100% of the securities
the Issuer, or the Person initiating such Registration, proposes to sell, (ii)
second, if the Registration is being initiated by a Person other than the
Issuer, 100% of the securities the Issuer proposes to sell, and (iii) third, to
the extent of the amount of securities which all other Holders have requested
to be included in such Registration, which, in the opinion of the managing underwriter
or underwriters, can be sold without such adverse effect referred to above,
such amount to be allocated pro rata among
the Holders which have requested to be included in such Piggyback Registration
based upon the relative proportionate total holdings of

 

6

 

Registrable
Securities.  All Holders proposing to
distribute their securities through such underwriting will enter into an underwriting
agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter or underwriters
selected for such underwriting by the Issuer. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the underwriting
agreement or any other documents reasonably required under such agreement, (i)
no Holder shall be required to make any representation or warranty with respect
to or on behalf of the Issuer or any other stockholder of the Issuer, and (ii)
the liability of any Holder shall be limited as provided in Section 8(b)
hereof.  If any Holder disapproves of the
terms of such underwriting, such Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by
written notice to the Issuer and the underwriter.

 

(c)                                  Expenses.  The Issuer shall pay all Registration
Expenses in connection with each registration of Registrable Securities
requested pursuant to this Section 4.

 

(d)                                 Issuer’s
Control.  The Issuer may decline to
file a Registration Statement after giving the Piggyback Notice, or withdraw a Registration
Statement after filing and after such Piggyback Notice, but prior to the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement, provided that the Issuer shall
promptly notify each Holder in writing of any such action and provided further
that the Issuer shall bear all reasonable expenses incurred by such Holder or
otherwise in connection with such withdrawn Registration Statement.

 

5.                                      Lock-Up
Agreement.

 

(a)                                  Restrictions
on Public Sale by Holders of Registrable Securities.  Provided that all parties (other than the
Issuer) hereto are treated equally and all executive officers and directors of
the Issuer are also so bound, each Holder agrees that, if so requested by the
Board or any managing underwriter in respect of an Underwritten Offering of the
Issuer’s securities, such Holder will not sell, make any short sale of, loan,
grant any option for the purchase of, hypothecate, hedge or otherwise transfer
or dispose of (other than to donees who agree to be similarly bound) any of the
Issuer’s securities, including without limitation shares of Common Stock,
options or warrants exercisable for shares of the Issuer’s securities, or any
other security convertible into or exchangeable for shares of the Issuer’s
securities (other than as part of such underwritten public offering), (i)
during a period not to exceed 180 days following the effective date of the
initial registration statement of the Issuer filed under the Securities Act (or
such shorter period as the Issuer or managing underwriter may authorize) and
(ii) during a period not to exceed 90 days following the effective date of a
registration statement other than the initial registration statement (or such
shorter period as the Issuer or managing underwriter may authorize) (each, a “Stand-Off
Period”).  Each Holder agrees to
execute and deliver a lock up agreement as may be reasonably requested by the Issuer
and/or managing underwriter consistent with the foregoing obligations.  In order to enforce the foregoing covenant,
the Issuer may impose stock transfer restrictions with respect to the securities
(including any Registrable Shares) of each Holder until the end of the
applicable Stand-Off Period.

 

Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the obligations described in this Section 5(a) shall not
apply to a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans on Form S-1
or Form S-8 or similar forms which may be promulgated in the future, or a
registration relating solely to an SEC Rule 145 transaction on Form S-4 or
similar forms which may be promulgated in the future

 

7

 

(b)                                 No
Inconsistent Agreements.  The Issuer
will not enter into any agreement with respect to its securities which is
inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders by this Agreement.

 

6.                                      Registration
Procedures.

 

In connection
with the Issuer’s Registration obligations pursuant to Sections 3 and 4 hereof,
the Issuer will use its reasonable best efforts to effect such Registration to
permit the sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended
method or methods of distribution thereof, and pursuant thereto the Issuer will
as expeditiously as possible:

 

a.                                       prepare
and file with the SEC a Registration Statement or Registration Statements
relating to the applicable Demand Registration or Piggyback Registration
including all exhibits and financial statements required by the SEC to be filed
therewith, and use its best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to
become effective; provided, that the Issuer will furnish copies of any
amendments or supplements in the form filed with respect to any Piggyback
Registration, simultaneously with the filing of such amendments or supplements;

 

b.                                      prepare
and file with the SEC such amendments and post-effective amendments to the
Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement effective
for a period of not less than 180 days (or such shorter period which will
terminate when all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration
Statement have been sold or withdrawn), or, if such Registration Statement
relates to an Underwritten Offering, such longer period as in the opinion of
counsel for the underwriters a Prospectus is required by law to be delivered in
connection with sales of Registrable Securities by an underwriter or dealer;
cause the Prospectus to be supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement,
and as so supplemented to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities
Act; and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act,
and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder with respect to the
disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement during the
applicable period in accordance with the intended method or methods of
distribution by the sellers thereof set forth in such Registration Statement or
supplement to the Prospectus;

 

c.                                       notify
the selling Holders and the managing underwriters, if any, and (if requested)
confirm such advice in writing, as soon as practicable after notice thereof is
received by the Issuer (i) when the Registration Statement or any amendment
thereto has been filed or becomes effective, the Prospectus or any amendment or
supplement to the Prospectus has been filed, and, to furnish such selling
Holders and managing underwriters with copies thereof, (ii) of any request by
the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the
Prospectus or for additional information, (iii) of the issuance by the SEC of
any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or
any order preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary Prospectus or Prospectus
or the initiation or threatening of any proceedings for such purposes, (iv) if
at any time the representations and warranties of the Issuer contemplated by
paragraph (m) below cease to be true and correct and (v) of the receipt by the
Issuer of

 

8

 

any notification with respect to the
suspension of the qualification of the Registrable Securities for offering or
sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for
such purpose;

 

d.                                      promptly
notify the selling Holders and the managing underwriters, if any, at any time
prior to nine months after the time of issue of the Prospectus, when the Issuer
becomes aware of the happening of any event as a result of which the Prospectus
included in such Registration Statement (as then in effect) contains any untrue
statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to
make the statements therein (in the case of the Prospectus and any preliminary Prospectus,
in light of the circumstances under which they were made) when such Prospectus
was delivered not misleading or, if for any other reason it shall be necessary
during such time period to amend or supplement the Prospectus in order to
comply with the Securities Act and, in either case as promptly as practicable thereafter,
prepare and file with the SEC, and furnish without charge to the selling
Holders and the managing underwriters, if any, a supplement or amendment to
such Prospectus which will correct such statement or omission or effect such compliance;

 

e.                                       make
every reasonable effort to obtain the withdrawal of any stop order or other
order suspending the use of any preliminary Prospectus or Prospectus or
suspending any qualification of the Registrable Securities;

 

f.                                         if
requested by the managing underwriter or underwriters or a Holder of
Registrable Securities being sold in connection with an Underwritten Offering,
promptly incorporate in a Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment
such information as the managing underwriters and the Holders of a majority of
the Registrable Securities being sold agree should be included therein relating
to the plan of distribution with respect to such Registrable Securities,
including, without limitation, information with respect to the number of
Registrable Securities being sold to such underwriters, the purchase price
being paid therefor by such underwriters and with respect to any other terms of
the Underwritten (or best efforts underwritten) Offering of the Registrable
Securities to be sold in such offering; and make all required filings of such
Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment as soon as notified of the
matters to be incorporated in such Prospectus supplement or post-effective
amendment;

 

g.                                      furnish
to each selling Holder and each managing underwriter, without charge, one
executed copy and as many conformed copies as they may reasonably request, of
the Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, including
financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated therein by
reference and all exhibits (including those incorporated by reference);

 

h.                                      deliver
to each selling Holder and the underwriters, if any, without charge, as many
copies of the Prospectus (including each preliminary Prospectus) and any
amendment or supplement thereto as such Persons may reasonably request (it
being understood that the Issuer consents to the use of the Prospectus or any
amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders and the
underwriters, if any, in connection with the offering and sale of the
Registrable Securities covered by the

 

9

 

Prospectus or any amendment or supplement
thereto) and such other documents as such selling Holder may reasonably request
in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities by such
Holder;

 

i.                                          on
or prior to the date on which the Registration Statement is declared effective,
use its best efforts to register or qualify, and cooperate with the selling
Holders, the managing underwriter or agent, if any, and their respective
counsel in connection with the registration or qualification of such
Registrable Securities for offer and sale under the securities or blue sky laws
of each state and other jurisdiction of the United States as any such seller,
underwriter or agent reasonably requests in writing and do any and all other
acts or things reasonably necessary or advisable to keep such registration or
qualification in effect for so long as such Registration Statement remains in
effect and so as to permit the continuance of sales and dealings therein for as
long as may be necessary to complete the distribution of the Registrable
Securities covered by the Registration Statement; provided that the
Issuer will not be required to qualify generally to do business in any
jurisdiction where it in not then so qualified or to take any action which
would subject it to general service of process in any such jurisdiction where
it is not then so subject;

 

j.                                          cooperate

in such names as the managing underwriters may request at least two business

k.                                       use
its best efforts to cause the Registrable Securities covered by the applicable
Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other
governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to enable the seller
or sellers thereof or the underwriters, if any, to consummate the disposition
of such Registrable Securities;

 

l.                                          not
later than the effective date of the applicable Registration, provide a CUSIP
number for all Registrable Securities and provide the applicable trustee or

m.                                    make
such representations and warranties to the Holders of Registrable Securities
being registered, and the underwriters or agents, if any, in form, substance
and scope as are customarily made by issuers in primary underwritten public
offerings;

 

n.                                      enter
into such customary agreements (including an underwriting agreement) and take
all such other actions as the majority of the Holders of any Registrable
Securities being sold or the managing underwriter or agent, if any, reasonably
request in order to expedite or facilitate the Registration and disposition of
such Registrable Securities, including making management of the Issuer
available to participate in a customary “roadshow” as reasonably requested by
the managing underwriters;

substance and scope reasonably satisfactory to such Holders, underwriters or
agents and their counsel;

 

p.                                      obtain
for delivery to the Issuer and the underwriter or agent, with copies to the
Holders, a comfort letter from the Issuer’s independent public accountants in
customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by
comfort letters as the managing underwriter or the Holders of a majority of the
Registrable Securities being sold reasonably request, dated the effective date of
the Registration Statement and brought down to the Offering Closing Date;

 

q.                                      cooperate
with each seller of Registrable Securities and each underwriter or agent
participating in the disposition of such Registrable Securities and their
respective counsel in connection with any filings required to be made with the
NASD;

 

r.                                         make
available for inspection by a representative of the Holders of a majority of
the Registrable Securities, any underwriter participating in any disposition
pursuant to such Registration, and any attorney or accountant retained by such
Holders or underwriter, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate
documents and properties of the Issuer, and cause the Issuer’s officers,
directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any
such representative, underwriter, attorney or accountant in connection with
such Registration; provided that any records, information or documents
that are designated by the Issuer in writing as confidential shall be kept
confidential by such Persons unless disclosure of such records, information or
documents is required by law;

 

s.                                       use
its best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC
and make generally available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably

Registration Statement, an earnings statement satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a)
of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder;

 

t.                                         as

managing underwriters, if any;

 

u.                                      provide
and cause to be maintained a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable

later than the effective date of such Registration Statement; and

 

v.                                      use
its best efforts to list (if such Registrable Securities are not already
listed) all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement on
The New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq National
Market.

 

11

 

The Issuer may
require each Holder of Registrable Securities as to which any Registration is
being effected to furnish to the Issuer such information regarding the
distribution of such securities and such other information relating to such
Holder and its ownership of Registrable Securities as the Issuer may from time
to time reasonably request in writing. 
Each Holder agrees to furnish such information to the Issuer and to
cooperate with the Issuer as necessary to enable the Issuer to comply with the
provisions of this Agreement.

 

Each Holder
agrees that upon receipt of any notice from the Issuer of the happening of any
event of the kind described in Section 6(d) hereof, such Holder will
forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to such
Registration Statement until such Holder’s receipt of the copies of the
supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 6(d) hereof, or
until it is advised in writing by the Issuer that the use of the Prospectus may
be resumed, and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings
which are incorporated by reference in the Prospectus, and, if so directed by
the Issuer, such Holder will deliver to the Issuer (at the Issuer’s expense)
all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such Holder’s possession,
of the Prospectus covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of
receipt of such notice.

counsel to underwriters (other than such fees and disbursements incurred in
connection with any registration or qualification of Registrable Securities
under the securities or blue sky laws of any state), and (ix) fees and expenses
of other Persons retained by the Issuer (all such expenses being herein called “Registration
Expenses”), will be borne by the Issuer, regardless of whether the
Registration Statement becomes effective (except as provided in Section 3(e)
hereof).  The Issuer

 

12

 

will, in any
event, pay its internal expenses (including, without limitation, all salaries
and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting
duties), the expense of any audit and the fees and expenses of any Person,
including special experts, retained by the Issuer.

 

8.                                      INDEMNIFICATION

 

(a)                                  Indemnification
by Issuer.  The Issuer agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless, to the full extent permitted by law, each Holder,
its officers, directors and employees and each Person who controls such Holder
(within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages,
liabilities and expenses that arise out of or are based upon any untrue or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration
Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus, are based upon any omission or
alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as
the same are caused by or contained in any information furnished in writing to
the Issuer by such Holder expressly for use therein, or are based on any
violation or alleged violation by the Issuer of the Securities Act, the
Exchange Act, any state securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated
under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities laws in
connection with the offering covered by the Registration; and the Issuer will
reimburse the Holders, each of their respective stockholders, partners,
members, managers, trustees, directors, officers, employees, agents,
underwriters and each Person who controls each Holder or underwriter for any
reasonable legal and other expenses as and when incurred in connection with
investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or expense; provided,
however, that the Issuer shall not be liable in any such case to the extent
that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense arises out of or is
based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
omission made in any such preliminary Prospectus if (i) such Holder failed to
deliver or cause to be delivered a copy of the Prospectus to the Person
asserting such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense after the Issuer had
furnished such Holder with a sufficient number of copies of the same and (ii)
the Prospectus completely corrected in a timely manner such untrue statement or
omission; and provided, further, that the Issuer shall not be liable in
any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or
expense arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission in the Prospectus, if such untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission is
completely corrected in an amendment or supplement to the Prospectus and the Holder
thereafter fails to deliver such Prospectus as so amended or supplemented prior
to or concurrently with the sale of the Registrable Securities to the Person
asserting such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense after the Issuer had
furnished such Holder with a sufficient number of copies of the same.  The Issuer will also indemnify underwriters,
selling brokers, dealer managers and similar securities industry professionals
participating in the distribution, their officers and directors and each Person
who controls such Persons (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the
same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the
Holders, if requested.

 

(b)                                 Indemnification
by Selling Holder of Underlying Securities. In connection with each
Registration, each selling Holder will furnish to the Issuer in writing such
information and affidavits as the Issuer reasonably requests for use in
connection with any Registration Statement or Prospectus and agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless, to the full extent permitted

 

13

 

by law, the Issuer,
its directors and officers and each Person who controls the Issuer (within the
meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages or
liabilities and expenses resulting from any untrue statement of a material fact
or any omission of a material fact required to be stated in the Registration
Statement or Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, to the extent, but only to the extent, that
such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information or affidavit
so furnished in writing by such selling Holder to the Issuer specifically for
inclusion in such Registration Statement or Prospectus and has not been
corrected in a subsequent writing prior to or concurrently with the sale of the
Registrable Securities to the Person asserting such loss, claim, damage,
liability or expense.  In no event shall
the liability of any selling Holder hereunder (together with any liability of
such selling Holder under any similar provision contained in any applicable
underwriting agreement) be greater in amount than the amount by which the total
price at which the Registrable Securities of such Holder were offered to the
public (less underwriters’ discount and commissions) exceeds the total amount
of any damages which such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason
of any untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission of
such Holder.  The Issuer shall be
entitled to receive indemnities from underwriters, selling brokers, dealer
managers and similar securities industry professionals participating in the
distribution, to the same extent as provided above with respect to information
so furnished in writing by such Persons specifically for inclusion in any
Prospectus or Registration Statement.

 

(c)                                  Conduct
of Indemnification Proceedings.  Any
Person entitled to indemnification hereunder will (i) give prompt (but in any
event within 30 days after such Person has actual knowledge of the facts
constituting the basis for indemnification) written notice to the indemnifying
party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification and (ii)
permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided, however,
that any delay or failure to so notify the indemnifying party shall relieve the
indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder only to the extent, if at all,
that it is prejudiced by reason of such delay or failure; provided, further,
that any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall have the right to
select and employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such
claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of
such Person unless (a) the indemnifying party has agreed in writing to pay such
fees or expenses, or (b) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the
defense of such claim within a reasonable time after receipt of notice of such
claim from the Person entitled to indemnification hereunder and employ counsel
reasonably satisfactory to such Person or (c) in the reasonable judgment of any
such Person, based upon advice of its counsel, a conflict of interest may exist
between such Person and the indemnifying party with respect to such claims (in which
case, if the Person notifies the indemnifying party in writing that such Person
elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, the
indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such claim
on behalf of such Person).  If such
defense is assumed by the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not
enter into any settlement with respect to such matter without the consent of
the indemnified party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed);
provided that an indemnified party shall not be required to consent to
any settlement involving the imposition of equitable remedies or involving the
imposition of material obligations on such indemnified party other than
financial obligations for which such indemnified party will be indemnified
hereunder.  If such defense is not
assumed by the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will not be subject
to any liability for any settlement made without its consent (but such consent
will not be unreasonably withheld or

 

14

 

delayed), provided
that no indemnifying party will be required to consent to entry of any judgment
or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term
thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a
release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.  An indemnifying party who is not entitled to,
or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim will not be obligated to pay
the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by
such indemnifying party with respect to such claim in any one jurisdiction,
unless in the written opinion of counsel to the indemnified party, reasonably
satisfactory to the indemnifying party, use of one counsel would be expected to
give rise to a conflict of interest between such indemnified party and any
other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim, in which event
the indemnifying party shall be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of one
such additional counsel.

 

(d)                                 Other
Indemnification.  Indemnification
similar to that specified in this Section 8 (with appropriate
modifications) shall be given by the Issuer and each seller of Registrable
Securities with respect to any required registration or other qualification of
securities under federal or state law or regulation of governmental authority
other than the Securities Act.

 

(e)                                  Contribution.  If for any reason the indemnification
provided for in the preceding clauses (a) and (b) is unavailable (other than
pursuant to the terms of clauses (a) or (b)) to an indemnified party or insufficient
(other than pursuant to the terms of clauses (a) or (b)) to hold it harmless as
contemplated by the preceding clauses (a) and (b), then the indemnifying party
shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a
result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the
indemnified party and the indemnifying party, but also the relative fault of
the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations, provided that no selling Holder shall be required to
contribute in an amount greater than the amount by which the total price at
which the Registrable Securities of such holder was offered to the public (less
underwriters’ discount and commissions) exceeds the total amount of any damages
which such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of any untrue or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission of such Holder.  No person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities
Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of
such fraudulent misrepresentation.

 

9.                                      Rule
144.

 

Following the
Issuer IPO, the Issuer covenants that it will use its reasonable efforts to file
the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the
Exchange Act and the rules and regulations adopted by the SEC thereunder, and
it will use its reasonable efforts to take such further action as any Holder
may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable
such Holder to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the
Securities Act within the limitation of the exemption provided by (a) Rule 144
under the Securities Act, as such Rule may be amended from time to time, or (b)
any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the SEC.  Upon the request of any Holder, the Issuer
will deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied
with such information and requirements.  Notwithstanding
anything contained in this Section 9, the Issuer may deregister

 

15

 

under Section 12
of the Exchange Act if it then is permitted to do so pursuant to the Exchange
Act and the rules and regulations thereunder.

 

10.                               Participation
in Underwritten Registrations.

 

No Person may
participate in any Underwritten Registration hereunder unless such Person (a)
agrees to sell such Person’s securities on the basis provided in any
underwriting arrangements approved by the Persons entitled to approve such
arrangements and (b) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of
attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents required
under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.  Nothing in this Section 10 shall be
construed to create any additional rights regarding the Registration of
Registrable Securities in any Person otherwise than as set forth herein.

 

11.                               Additional
Parties.

 

As of the date
hereof, the Issuer has (i) entered into, and may in the future enter into, various
stockholder agreements and options agreements prior to or subsequent to the
date hereof (the “Management Agreements”) with certain key employees of
the Issuer and one or more of its subsidiaries (the “Management Holders”)
that own or will own Common Stock or options to purchase shares of Common Stock,
and (ii) entered into that certain Stockholders’ Agreement, dated as of January 21,
1998, as amended from time to time (the “Minority Stockholders Agreement”)
by and among certain holders of the Common Stock (the “Minority Stockholders”),
the Issuer and Hubcap Acquisition L.L.C. 
The Management Agreements and the Minority Stockholders Agreement
provide that in the event the Issuer registers shares of Common Stock held by
the Holders pursuant to this Agreement, the Management Holders and the Minority
Holders have the right, subject to certain conditions set forth in the
Management Agreements and the Minority Stockholders, to require the Issuer to
include in such registration statement shares of Common Stock held by the
Management Holders.  In addition, in
certain circumstance, the Minority Stockholders Agreement gives the Minority
Stockholders the right to request the Issuer to file a “shelf” Registration
Statement.  Each of the parties hereto
acknowledges that registration rights of the Management Holders and the
Minority Stockholders and agrees that the Issuer’s obligations under this
Agreement coincide with its obligations to the Management Holders and the
Minority Stockholders with respect to such registration rights and that the
Management Holders and the Minority Stockholders will be treated as if they
were a Holder under this Agreement to the extend provided in the Management
Agreements and the Minority Stockholders Agreement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Management Holders shall not be deemed Holders for purposes of Section 12(c)
and 12(m).

 

12.                               Miscellaneous.

 

(a)                                  Remedies.  Remedies for any breach by the Issuer of its
obligations in this Agreement shall be cumulative with, and not exclusive of,
any other remedies available to any Holder. 
Upon a breach of this Agreement by the Issuer, each Holder, in addition
to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law,
including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its
rights under this Agreement.  The Issuer
agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss
incurred by reason of a

 

16

 

breach by it
of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby agrees to waive the defense in
any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.

 

(b)                                 Interpretations.
 As used in this Agreement, defined terms
shall apply equally to both the singular and plural forms of the terms
defined.  Whenever the context may
require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and
neuter forms.  The words “include,” “includes”
and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without
limitation” even if not actually followed by such phrase unless the context
expressly provides otherwise.  All
references herein to Sections, paragraphs and Exhibits shall be deemed
references to this Agreement unless the context shall otherwise require.  Unless otherwise expressly defined, terms
defined in the Agreement shall have the same meanings when used in any section or
Exhibit and terms defined in any section or Exhibit shall have the same
meanings when used in the Agreement or in any other section or Exhibit.  The words “herein,” “hereof,” “hereto” and “hereunder”
and other words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to
any particular provision of this Agreement.

 

(c)                                  Amendments
and Waivers.  The provisions of this
Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence, any not be amended,
modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the
provisions hereof may not be given unless the Issuer has obtained the written
consent of the Holders of a majority of the outstanding Registrable Securities,
so long as (i) such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent does
not adversely affect the rights of any Holder or group of Holders of Registrable
Securities hereunder disproportionately, in which case, the written consent of
such Holders disproportionately affected shall be necessary, and (ii) any
amendment or supplement to this Agreement that would have the effect of
changing the percentage of Registrable Securities owned by Holders required to
take an action must be approved in writing by Holders owning such percentage of
Registrable Securities; provided, however, that the Issuer may amend, modify
or supplement the provisions of this Agreement and may waive or consent to
departures from the provisions hereof, without the consent of the Holders of a
majority of the outstanding Registrable Securities, so long as such amendment, modification,
supplement, waiver or consent does not adversely affect the rights of Holders
of Registrable Securities hereunder, or to add Persons as Holders and to amend Exhibit
A to add such Persons as Holders, to the extent permitted by this
Agreement.  This Agreement may be
terminated only with the prior written approval of the Issuer, the KKR Holders
owning a majority of the Registrable Securities held by the KKR Holders and the
Trimaran Holders owning a majority of the Registrable Securities held by the
Trimaran Holders.

 

(d)                                 Notices.  All notices, requests, demands and other
communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to
have been duly given or made as follows: 
(i) if sent by registered or certified mail in the United States return
receipt requested, upon receipt; (ii) if sent by nationally recognized
overnight air courier (such as FedEx) receipt requested, upon receipt; (iii) if
sent by facsimile transmission (with confirmation of receipt), with a copy
mailed on the same day in the manner provided in clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 12(d),
when transmitted; and (iv) if otherwise actually personally delivered, when
delivered, provided that such notices, requests, demands and other
communications are delivered to the Stockholder at the address provided in Exhibit
A, to the Issuer at the address set forth below, or to such other address
as any party shall provide by like notice to the other parties hereto:

(e)                                  Recapitalizations.  The provisions of this Agreement shall apply,
to the full extent set forth herein with respect to the Common Stock and to any
and all shares of capital stock or other securities which may be issued in
respect of, in exchange for, in substitution of the Common Stock, and shall be
appropriately adjusted for any stock dividends, splits, reverse splits,
combinations, recapitalization and the like occurring after the date hereof.

 

(f)                                    Attorney’s
Fees.  In the event that any dispute
among the parties to this Agreement should result in litigation, the prevailing
party in such dispute shall be entitled to recover from the losing party all
fees, costs and expenses of enforcing any right of such prevailing party under
or with respect to this Agreement, including without limitation, such
reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys and accountants, which shall include,
without limitation, all fees, costs and expenses of appeals.

 

(g)                                 Successors
and Assigns.  This Agreement
including, without limitation, all registration rights in connection with the
ownership of all or a portion of the Registrable Securities pursuant to
Sections 3 and 4 hereof, shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the
successors and assigns of each of the parties, including, without limitation,
transferees of Registrable Securities; provided, however, that a transferee of
Registrable Securities shall agree in writing to be bound by the provisions of
this Agreement prior to become a Holder.

 

(h)                                 Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in any number
of counterparts and by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of
which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken
together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

 

(i)                                     Headings.  The headings in this Agreement are for
convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the
meaning hereof.

 

(j)                                     Governing
Law.  This Agreement shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without
regard to the principles of conflicts of laws.

 

18

 

(k)                                  Severability.  In the event that any one or more of the provisions
contained herein, or the application thereof in any circumstance, is held
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of
any such provision in every other respect and of the remaining provisions
contained herein shall not be affected or impaired thereby.

 

(l)                                     Entire
Agreement.  This Agreement is
intended by the parties as a final expression of their agreement and intended
to be a complete and exclusive statement of the agreement and understanding of
the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein.  This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements
and understandings between the parties with respect to such subject matters.

 

(m)                               Additional
Rights. Except as contemplated by Section 11, the Issuer shall not amend
any existing, or grant to any other holder of Common Stock any, rights to
request the Issuer to effect the Registration of any shares of Common Stock, or
any “piggyback” registration rights with respect to shares of Common Stock, on
terms that are more favorable to such holders than the terms set forth herein
without the prior written consent of Holders owning 75% of the then Registrable
Securities.  Hubcap Acquisition LLC
agrees not to consent to any amendment of the Minority Stockholders Agreement
which would violate this Section 12(m) if consented to by the Issuer.

 

(n)                                 Limited
Liability.  Notwithstanding any
provision hereof, none of the obligations of any KKR Holder, any Trimaran
Holder or any Albion Holder under this Agreement shall be an obligation of any
officer, director, member, limited partner or general partner of KKR, Trimaran
or Albion.  Any liability or obligation
of any KKR Holder, any Trimaran Holder or any Albion Holder arising out of this
Agreement shall be limited to and satisfied only out of the assets of such KKR
Holder, such Trimaran Holder or such Albion Holder.

 

(o)                                 Termination
of Existing Registration Rights Agreement. 
The parties hereto, constituting all of the parties to the Existing
Registration Rights Agreement, hereby agree that the Existing Registration
Rights Agreement is superseded in its entirety by this Agreement and that the
Existing Registration Rights Agreement shall be, and hereby is, terminated,
null and void.
