      Stock or Preferred Stock, as if the same had occurred on the first day of the

    For
      purposes of making the computation referred to above, Investments, acquisitions,
      dispositions, mergers, consolidations and disposed operations (as determined
      in
      accordance with GAAP) that have been made by the Issuer 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 Fixed Charge
      Coverage Ratio Calculation Date shall be calculated on a pro
      forma
      basis
      assuming that all such Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers,
      consolidations and disposed operations (and the change in any associated fixed
      charge obligations and the change in EBITDA resulting therefrom) had occurred
      

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -14-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        
on
        the
        first day of the four-quarter reference period. If, since the beginning of
        such
        period, any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was
        merged with or into the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries since
        the
        beginning of such period shall have made any Investment, acquisition,
        disposition, merger, consolidation or disposed 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 disposed operation had occurred on the first day 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 Issuer. If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate
      of
      interest and is being given pro
      forma
      effect,
      the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect
      on the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio 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 Issuer 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 except as set forth in the first paragraph of
      this
      definition. 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 Issuer may designate.

                Rules of Construction.

            

    

     

    Unless
      the context otherwise requires:

     

    (a)  a
      term
      has the meaning assigned to it;

     

    (b)  an
      accounting term not otherwise defined has the meaning assigned to it in
      accordance with GAAP;

        -34-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    (d)  words
      in
      the singular include the plural, and in the plural include the
      singular;

     

    (e)  “will”
      shall be interpreted to express a command;

     

    (f)  provisions
      apply to successive events and transactions;

    (i)  the
      words
“herein,” “hereof” and “hereunder” and other words of similar import refer to
      this Indenture as a whole and not any particular Article, Section, clause or
      other subdivision.

     

    
      	Section
              1.05  	
                
                Acts of Holders.

            

    

     

    (a)  Any
      request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
      action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders may be
      embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar
      tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing.
      Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become
      effective when such instrument or instruments or record or both are delivered
      to
      the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. Proof
      of
      execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent,
      or
      the holding by any Person of a Note, shall be sufficient for any purpose of
      this
      Indenture and (subject to Section 7.01) conclusive in favor of the Trustee
      and
      the Issuer, if made in the manner provided in this Section 1.05.

     

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

     

    (c)  The
      ownership of Notes shall be proved by the Note Register.

     

    (d)  Any
      request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
      action by the Holder of any Note shall bind every future Holder of the same
      Note
      and the Holder of every Note issued upon the registration of transfer thereof
      or
      in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in respect of any action taken,
      suffered or omitted by the Trustee or the Issuer in reliance thereon, whether
      or
      not notation of such action is made upon such Note.

     

    (e)  The
      Issuer may, in the circumstances permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, set
      a
      record date for purposes of determining the identity of Holders entitled to
      give
      any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or take
      any other act, or to vote or consent to any action by vote or consent authorized
      or permitted to be given or taken by Holders. Unless otherwise specified, if
      

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -35-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        
not
        set
        by the Issuer prior to the first solicitation of a Holder made by any Person
        in
        respect of any such action, or in the case of any such vote, prior to such
        vote,
        any such record date shall be the later of 30 days prior to the first
        solicitation of such consent or the date of the most recent list of Holders
        furnished to the Trustee prior to such solicitation.

    

     

    (f)  Without
      limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled to take any action hereunder with
      regard to any particular Note may do so with regard to all or any part of the
      principal amount of such Note or by one or more duly appointed agents, each
      of
      which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part
      of
      such principal amount. Any notice given or action taken by a Holder or its
      agents with regard to different parts of such principal amount pursuant to
      this
      paragraph shall have the same effect as if given or taken by separate Holders
      of
      each such different part.

     

    (g)  Without
      limiting the generality of the foregoing, a Holder, including DTC that is the
      Holder of a Global Note, may make, give or take, by a proxy or proxies duly
      appointed in writing, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
      consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to be made, given
      or
      taken by Holders, and DTC that is the Holder of a Global Note may provide its
      proxy or proxies to the beneficial owners of interests in any such Global Note
      through such depositary’s standing instructions and customary
      practices.

     

    (h)  The
      Issuer may fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Persons who
      are
      beneficial owners of interests in any Global Note held by DTC entitled under
      the
      procedures of such depositary to make, give or take, by a proxy or proxies
      duly
      appointed in writing, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
      consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to be made, given
      or
      taken by Holders. If such a record date is fixed, the Holders on such record
      date or their duly appointed proxy or proxies, and only such Persons, shall
      be
      entitled to make, give or take such request, demand, authorization, direction,
      notice, consent, waiver or other action, whether or not such Holders remain
      Holders after such record date. No such request, demand, authorization,
      direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action shall be valid or effective
      if made, given or taken more than 90 days after such record date.

      	Section
              2.01  	
                
                Form and Dating; Terms.

            

    

     

    (a)  General.
      The
      Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be substantially in
      the form of Exhibit
      A
      hereto.
      The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock
      exchange rules or usage. Each Note shall be dated the date of its
      authentication. The Notes shall be in minimum denominations of $2,000 and
      integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

     

    (b)  Global
      Notes.
      Notes
      issued in global form shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit
      A
      hereto
      (including the Global Note Legend thereon and the “Schedule of Exchanges of
      Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Notes issued in definitive form
      shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit
      A attached
      hereto (but without the Global Note Legend thereon and without the “Schedule of
      Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Each Global Note
      shall represent such of the outstanding Notes as shall be specified in the
      “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto and
      each shall provide that it shall represent up to the aggregate principal amount
      of Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal
      amount of outstanding Notes 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -36-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        
represented
        thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as applicable, to
        reflect
        exchanges and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the
        amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of
        outstanding Notes represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee or the
        Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, in accordance with instructions
        given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.06
        hereof.

    

     

    (c)  Terms.
      The
      aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be authenticated and delivered
      under this Indenture is unlimited.

     

    The
      terms
      and provisions contained in the Notes shall constitute, and are hereby expressly
      made, a part of this Indenture and the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee,
      by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such
      terms
      and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision
      of
      any Note conflicts with the express provisions of this Indenture, the provisions
      of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

     

    The
      Notes
      shall be subject to repurchase by the Issuer pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer
      as
      provided in Section 4.10 hereof or a Change of Control Offer as provided in
      Section 4.14 hereof. The Notes shall not be redeemable, other than as provided
      in Article 3.

     

    Additional
      Notes ranking pari passu
      with the
      Initial Notes may be created and issued from time to time by the Issuer without
      notice to or consent of the Holders and shall be consolidated with and form
      a
      single class with the Initial Notes and shall have the same terms as to status,
      redemption or otherwise as the Initial Notes; provided
      that the
      Issuer’s ability to issue Additional Notes shall be subject to the Issuer’s
      compliance with Section 4.09 hereof. Any Additional Notes shall be issued with
      the benefit of an indenture supplemental to this Indenture. In addition, in
      connection with the payment of PIK Interest or Partial PIK Interest in respect
      of the Notes, the Issuer is entitled to, without the consent of the Holders
      and
      without regard to Section 4.09, increase the outstanding principal amount of
      the
      Notes or issue additional Notes (the “PIK
      Notes”)
      under
      this Indenture on the same terms and conditions as the Notes offered hereby
      (in
      each case, the “PIK
      Payment”).
      The
      Notes offered by the Issuer, the PIK Notes and any Additional Notes subsequently
      issued under this Indenture will be treated as a single class for all purposes
      under this Indenture, including waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers
      to
      purchase. Unless the context requires otherwise, references to “Notes” for all
      purposes of this Indenture include any PIK Notes and Additional Notes that
      are
      actually issued, and references to “principal amount” of the Notes includes any
      increase in the principal amount of the outstanding Notes as a result of a
      PIK
      Payment.

     

    (d)  Euroclear
      and Clearstream Procedures Applicable.
      The
      provisions of the “Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System” and “Terms and
      Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear” and the “General Terms and Conditions of
      Clearstream Banking” and “Customer Handbook” of Clearstream shall be applicable
      to transfers of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Global Notes that
      are
      held by Participants through Euroclear or Clearstream.

                Execution and
                Authentication.

            

    

     

    At
      least
      one Officer shall execute the Notes on behalf of the Issuer by manual or
      facsimile signature.

     

    If
      an
      Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time
      a
      Note is authenticated, the Note shall nevertheless be valid.

     

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    A
      Note
      shall not be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or
      obligatory for any purpose until authenticated substantially in the form
      provided for in Exhibit
      A
      attached
      hereto by the manual or facsimile signature of the Trustee. The signature shall
      be conclusive evidence that the Note has been duly authenticated and delivered
      under this Indenture.

     

    On
      the
      Issue Date, the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Issuer Order (an “Authentication
      Order”),
      authenticate and deliver Initial Notes. In addition, at any time, from time
      to
      time, the Trustee shall upon an Authentication Order authenticate and deliver
      any (i) Additional Notes, (ii) any PIK Notes issued in payment of PIK Interest
      or Partial PIK Interest and (iii) Exchange Notes or private exchange notes
      for
      issue only in an Exchange Offer or a private exchange, respectively, pursuant
      to
      a Registration Rights Agreement, for a like principal amount of Initial Notes.
      Such Authentication Order shall specify the amount of the Notes to be
      authenticated and, in the case of any issuance of Additional Notes pursuant
      to
      Section 2.01 hereof, shall certify that such issuance is in compliance with
      Section 4.09 of this Indenture. On any Interest Payment Date on which the Issuer
      pays PIK Interest and Partial PIK Interest with respect to a Global Note, the
      Trustee shall increase the principal amount of such Global Note by an amount
      equal to the interest payable, rounded up to the nearest $1,000, for the
      relevant Interest Period on the principal amount of such Global Note as of
      the
      relevant Record Date for such Interest Payment Date, to the credit of the
      Holders on such Record Date, pro rata in accordance with their interests, and
      an
      adjustment shall be made on the books and records of the Trustee (if it is
      then
      the Custodian for such Global Note) with respect to such Global Note, by the
      Trustee or the Custodian, to reflect such increase. On any Interest Payment
      Date
      on which the Issuer pays PIK Interest or Partial PIK Interest by issuing
      definitive PIK Notes, the principal amount of any such PIK Notes issued to
      any
      Holder, for the relevant Interest Period as of the relevant Record Date for
      such
      Interest Payment Date, shall be rounded up to the nearest $1.00.

     

    The
      Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Issuer to
      authenticate Notes. 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 an Agent to deal with Holders or an Affiliate of the
      Issuer.

                Registrar
                and
                Paying Agent.

            

    

     

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

     

    The
      Issuer initially appoints The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”)
      to act
      as Depositary with respect to the Global Notes.

     

    The
      Issuer initially appoints the Trustee to act as the Paying Agent and Registrar
      for the Notes and to act as Custodian with respect to the Global
      Notes.

                Agent to Hold Money in Trust.

            

    

     

    The
      Issuer shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in
      writing that the Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders
      or
      the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal,
      premium, if any, or Special Interest, if any, or interest on the Notes, and
      will
      notify the Trustee of any default by the Issuer in making any such payment.
      While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to
      pay
      all money held by it to the Trustee. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying
      Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the
      Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Issuer or a Subsidiary) shall
      have
      no further liability for the money. If the Issuer or a Subsidiary acts as Paying
      Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit
      of
      the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or
      reorganization proceedings relating to the Issuer, the Trustee shall serve
      as
      Paying Agent for the Notes.

    The
      Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the
      most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of all Holders
      and
      shall otherwise comply with Trust Indenture Act Section 312(a). If the Trustee
      is not the Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee at least two
      Business Days before each Interest Payment Date and at such other times as
      the
      Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as
      the
      Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders of
      Notes and the Issuer shall otherwise comply with Trust Indenture Act Section

    (a)  Transfer
      and Exchange of Global Notes.
      Except
      as otherwise set forth in this Section 2.06, a Global Note may be transferred,
      in whole and not in part, only to another nominee of the Depositary or to a
      successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. A beneficial
      interest in a Global Note may not be exchanged for a Definitive Note unless
      (i)
      the Depositary (x) notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to
      continue as Depositary for such Global Note or (y) has ceased to be a clearing
      agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case, a successor
      Depositary is not appointed by the Issuer within 120 days or (ii) there
      shall have occurred and be continuing a Default with respect to the Notes.
      Upon
      the occurrence of any of the preceding events in (i) or (ii) above, Definitive
      Notes delivered in exchange for any Global Note or beneficial interests therein
      will be registered in the names, and issued in any approved denominations,
      requested by or on behalf of the Depositary (in accordance with its customary
      procedures). Global Notes also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in
      part, as provided in Sections 2.07 and 2.10 hereof. Every Note authenticated
      and
      delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion thereof,
      pursuant to this Section 2.06 or Section 2.07 or 2.10 hereof, shall be
      authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note, except
      for Definitive Notes issued subsequent to any of the preceding events in (i)
      or
      (ii) above and pursuant to Section 2.06(c) hereof. A Global Note may not be
      exchanged for another Note other than as provided in this Section 2.06(a);
      provided,
      however,
      beneficial interests in a Global Note may be transferred and exchanged as
      provided in Section 2.06(b), (c) or (f) hereof.

     

    (b)  Transfer
      and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in the Global Notes.
      The
      transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in the Global Notes shall be
      effected through the Depositary, in accordance with the provisions of this
      Indenture and the Applicable Procedures. Beneficial interests in the Restricted
      Global Notes shall be subject to restrictions on transfer comparable to those
      set forth herein to the extent required by the Securities Act. Transfers of
      beneficial interests in the Global Notes also

        require compliance with either subparagraph (i) or (ii) below, as applicable,
        as
        well as one or more of the other following subparagraphs, as
        applicable:

    

     

    (i)  Transfer
      of Beneficial Interests in the Same Global Note.
      Beneficial interests in any Restricted Global Note may be transferred to Persons
      who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the same
      Restricted Global Note in accordance with the transfer restrictions set forth
      in
      the Private Placement Legend; provided,
      however,
      that
      prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period, transfers of beneficial
      interests in the Regulation S Global Note may not be made to a U.S. Person
      or
      for the account or benefit of a U.S. Person (other than an Initial Purchaser).
      Beneficial interests in any Unrestricted Global Note may be transferred to
      Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an
      Unrestricted Global Note. No written orders or instructions shall be required
      to
      be delivered to the Registrar to effect the transfers described in this Section
      2.06(b)(i).

     

    (ii)  All
      Other Transfers and Exchanges of Beneficial Interests in Global
      Notes.
      In
      connection with all transfers and exchanges of beneficial interests that are
      not
      subject to Section 2.06(b)(i) hereof, the transferor of such beneficial interest
      must deliver to the Registrar either (A) both (1) a written order from a
      Participant or an Indirect Participant given to the Depositary in accordance
      with the Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to credit or cause
      to be
      credited a beneficial interest in another Global Note in an amount equal to
      the
      beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged and (2) instructions
      given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures containing information
      regarding the Participant account to be credited with such increase or
      (B) both (1) a written order from a Participant or an Indirect
      Participant given to the Depositary in accordance with the Applicable Procedures
      directing the Depositary to cause to be issued a Definitive Note in an amount
      equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged and (2)
      instructions given by the Depositary to the Registrar containing information
      regarding the Person in whose name such Definitive Note shall be registered
      to
      effect the transfer or exchange referred to in (1) above. Upon consummation
      of
      an Exchange Offer by the Issuer in accordance with Section 2.06(f) hereof,
      the
      requirements of this Section 2.06(b)(ii) shall be deemed to have been satisfied
      upon receipt by the Registrar of the instructions contained in the Letter of
      Transmittal delivered by the Holder of such beneficial interests in the
      Restricted Global Notes. Upon satisfaction of all of the requirements for
      transfer or exchange of beneficial interests in Global Notes contained in this
      Indenture and the Notes or otherwise applicable under the Securities Act, the
      Trustee shall adjust the principal amount of the relevant Global Note(s)
      pursuant to Section 2.06(h) hereof.

     

    (iii)  Transfer
      of Beneficial Interests to Another Restricted Global Note.
      A
      beneficial interest in any Restricted Global Note may be transferred to a Person
      who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another
      Restricted Global Note if the transfer complies with the requirements of Section
      2.06(b)(ii) hereof and the Registrar receives the following:

     

    (A)  if
      the
      transferee will take delivery in the form of a beneficial interest in the 144A
      Global Note, then the transferor must deliver a certificate in the form of
      Exhibit
      B
      hereto,
      including the certifications in item (1) thereof; or

     

    (B)  if
      the
      transferee will take delivery in the form of a beneficial interest in the
      Regulation S Global Note, then the transferor must deliver a certificate in
      the
      form of Exhibit
      B
      hereto,
      including the certifications in item (2) thereof.

    (iv)  Transfer
      and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in a Restricted Global Note for Beneficial
      Interests in an Unrestricted Global Note.
      A
      beneficial interest in any Restricted Global Note may be exchanged by any holder
      thereof for a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note or transferred
      to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest
      in
      an Unrestricted Global Note if the exchange or transfer complies with the
      requirements of Section 2.06(b)(ii) hereof and:

     

    (A)  such
      exchange or transfer is effected pursuant to the Exchange Offer in accordance
      with the Registration Rights Agreement and the holder of the beneficial interest
      to be transferred, in the case of an exchange, or the transferee, in the case
      of
      a transfer, certifies in the applicable Letter of Transmittal that it is not
      (1) a Broker-Dealer, (2) a Person participating in the distribution of
      the Exchange Notes or (3) a Person who is an affiliate (as defined in Rule
      144) of the Issuer;

     

    (B)  such
      transfer is effected pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement in accordance
      with the Registration Rights Agreement;

     

    (C)  such
      transfer is effected by a Broker-Dealer pursuant to the Exchange Offer
      Registration Statement in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement;
      or

     

    (D)  the
      Registrar receives the following:

     

    (1)  if
      the
      holder of such beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Note proposes to
      exchange such beneficial interest for a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted
      Global Note, a certificate from such Holder substantially in the form of
Exhibit C
      hereto,
      including the certifications in item (1)(a) thereof; or

     

    (2)  if
      the
      holder of such beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Note proposes to

      in
      the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note, a certificate
      from such holder in the form of Exhibit B
      hereto,
      including the certifications in item (4) thereof;

     

    and,
      in
      each such case set forth in this subparagraph (D), if the Registrar so requests
      or if the Applicable Procedures so require, an Opinion of Counsel in form
      reasonably acceptable to the Registrar to the effect that such exchange or
      transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act and that the restrictions
      on
      transfer contained herein and in the Private Placement Legend are no longer
      required in order to maintain compliance with the Securities Act.

     

    If
      any
      such transfer is effected pursuant to subparagraph (B) or (D) above at a time
      when an Unrestricted Global Note has not yet been issued, the Issuer shall
      issue
      and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02
      hereof, the Trustee shall authenticate one or more Unrestricted Global Notes
      in
      an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of
      beneficial interests transferred pursuant to subparagraph (B) or (D)
      above.

     

    Beneficial
      interests in an Unrestricted Global Note cannot be exchanged for, or transferred
      to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of, a beneficial interest
      in a
      Restricted Global Note.

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

     

    (i) 
 General
      Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges.

     

    (i)  To
      permit
      registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Issuer shall execute and the
      Trustee shall authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes upon receipt of
      an
      Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02 hereof or at the
      Registrar’s request.

     

    (ii)  No
      service charge shall be made to a holder of a beneficial interest in a Global
      Note or to a Holder of a Definitive Note for any registration of transfer or
      exchange, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
      transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith
      (other than any such transfer taxes or similar governmental charge payable
      upon
      exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.07, 2.10, 3.06, 3.09, 4.10, 4.14
      and
      9.05 hereof).

     

    (iii)  Neither
      the Registrar nor the Issuer shall be required to register the transfer of
      or
      exchange any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the
      unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.

     

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

    (v)  The
      Issuer shall not be required (A) to issue, to register the transfer of or to
      exchange any Notes during a period beginning at the opening of business 15
      days
      before the day of any selection of Notes for redemption under Section 3.02
      hereof and ending at the close of business on the day of selection, (B) to
      register the transfer of or to exchange any Note so selected for redemption
      in
      whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed
      in
      part or (C) to register the transfer of or to exchange a Note between a Record
      Date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date.

     

    (vi)  Prior
      to
      due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any Note, the Trustee,
      any
      Agent and the Issuer may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Note is
      registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving
      payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and interest (including Special
      Interest, if any) on such Notes and for all other purposes, and none of the
      Trustee, any Agent or the Issuer shall be affected by notice to the
      contrary.

     

    (vii)  Upon
      surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the office or agency
      of
      the Issuer designated pursuant to Section 4.02 hereof, the Issuer shall execute,
      and the Trustee shall authenticate and mail, in the name of the designated
      transferee or transferees, one or more replacement Notes of any authorized
      denomination or denominations of a like aggregate principal amount.

     

    (viii)  At
      the
      option of the Holder, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of any authorized
      denomination or denominations of a like aggregate principal amount upon
      surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any
      Global Notes or Definitive Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Issuer
      shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and mail, the replacement
      Global Notes and Definitive Notes which the Holder making the exchange is
      entitled to in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02
      hereof.

     

    (ix)  All
      certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to be submitted
      to
      the Registrar pursuant to this Section 2.06 to effect a registration of transfer
      or exchange may be submitted by facsimile.

              2.07  	
                
                Replacement Notes.

            

    

     

     
If
      any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee, the Registrar or the Issuer
      and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the ownership and
      destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee,
      upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate a replacement Note
      if the Trustee’s requirements are met. If required by the Trustee or the Issuer,
      an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the
      judgment of the Trustee and the Issuer to protect the Issuer, the Trustee,
      any
      Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer
      if
      a Note is replaced. The Issuer may charge for its expenses in replacing a
      Note.

     

     Every
      replacement Note is a contractual obligation of the Issuer and shall be entitled
      to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all
      other Notes duly issued hereunder.

              2.08  	
                
                Outstanding Notes.

            

    

     
      

    The
      Notes
      outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except
      for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those
      reductions in the interest in a Global

Note
        effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those
        described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Except as set forth in
        Section 2.09 hereof, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the
        Issuer
        or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds the Note.

    

     

    If
      a Note
      is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding unless
      the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held
      by
      a bona fide purchaser.

     

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

     

    If
      the
      Paying Agent (other than the Issuer, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any
      thereof) holds, on a redemption date or maturity date, money sufficient to
      pay
      Notes payable on that date and the Paying Agent is not prohibited from paying
      such money to the Holders on that date pursuant to Article 12 and Article 13
      of
      this Indenture, then on and after that date such Notes shall be deemed to be
      no
      longer outstanding and shall cease to accrue interest.

              2.09  	
                
                Treasury Notes.

            

    

     

    In
      determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have
      concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Issuer, or
      by
      any Affiliate of the Issuer, shall be considered as though not outstanding,
      except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be
      protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that
      a
      Responsible Officer of the Trustee knows are so owned, upon receipt of an
      Officer’s Certificate shall be so disregarded. Notes so owned which have been
      pledged in good faith shall not be disregarded if the pledgee establishes to
      the
      satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right to deliver any such direction,
      waiver or consent with respect to the Notes and that the pledgee is not the
      Issuer or any obligor upon the Notes or any Affiliate of the Issuer or of such
      other obligor.

              2.10  	
                
                Temporary Notes.

            

    

     

    Until
      certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare
      and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate
      temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of
      certificated Notes but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate
      for temporary Notes and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.
      Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare and the Trustee shall
      authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes.

     

    Holders
      and beneficial holders, as the case may be, of temporary Notes shall be entitled
      to all of the benefits accorded to Holders, or beneficial holders, respectively,
      of Notes under this Indenture.

              2.11  	
                
                Cancellation.

            

    

     

    The
      Issuer at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The
      Registrar and Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered
      to
      them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee or, at
      the
      direction of the Trustee, the Registrar or the Paying Agent and no one else
      shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange,
      payment, replacement or cancellation and shall destroy cancelled Notes (subject
      to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act). Certification of
      the
      destruction of all cancelled Notes shall be delivered to the

Issuer.
        The Issuer may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that
        have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

    

     

    
      	Section
              2.12  	
                
                Defaulted Cash Interest.

            

    

     

    If
      the
      Issuer defaults in a payment of cash interest on the Notes, it shall pay the
      defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest
      payable on the defaulted interest to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent
      special record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in
      Section 4.01 hereof. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of the
      amount of defaulted cash interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the
      date
      of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Issuer shall deposit with
      the
      Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid
      in
      respect of such defaulted interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory
      to
      the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such
      money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled
      to such defaulted interest as provided in this Section 2.12. The Trustee shall
      fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date;
provided
      that no
      such special record date shall be less than 10 days prior to the related payment
      date for such defaulted interest. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer
      of such special record date. At least 15 days before the special record date,
      the Issuer (or, upon the written request of the Issuer, the Trustee in the
      name
      and at the expense of the Issuer) shall mail or cause to be mailed, first-class
      postage prepaid, to each Holder a notice at his or her address as it appears
      in
      the Note Register that states the special record date, the related payment
      date
      and the amount of such interest to be paid.

     

    Subject
      to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.12 and for greater certainty,
      each
      Note delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in
      exchange for or in lieu of any other Note shall carry the rights to interest
      accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other
      Note.

    The
      Issuer in issuing the Notes may use CUSIP and/or ISIN numbers (if then generally
      in use) and, if so, the Trustee shall use CUSIP and/or ISIN numbers in notices
      of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided,
      that
      any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness
      of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice
      of
      redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification
      numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption shall not be affected
      by
      any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Issuer will as promptly as
      practicable notify the Trustee of any change in the CUSIP or ISIN
      numbers.

                Purchased.

            

    

     

    If
      less
      than all of the Notes are to be redeemed or purchased in an offer to purchase
      at
      any time, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be redeemed or purchased
      (a) if the Notes are listed on any national securities exchange, in
      compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange
      on which the Notes are listed, (b) on a pro
      rata
      basis or
      (c) by lot or by such other method in accordance with the procedures of
      DTC. In the event of partial redemption or purchase by lot, the particular
      Notes
      to be redeemed or purchased shall be selected, unless otherwise provided herein,
      not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date by the
      Trustee from the outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption or
      purchase.

     

    The
      Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer in writing of the Notes selected for
      redemption or purchase and, in the case of any Note selected for partial
      redemption or purchase, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed or
      purchased. Notes and portions of Notes selected shall be in amounts of $2,000
      or
      whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof; no Notes of $2,000 or less can
      be
      redeemed in part, except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed
      or purchased, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder, even
      if not $2,000 or a multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, shall be redeemed
      or
      purchased. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this
      Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption or purchase also apply
      to
      portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase.

      first-class mail notices of redemption at least 30 days but not more than 60
      days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at such
      Holder’s registered address or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of

      of such Note, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed
      portion of the original Note representing the same indebtedness to the extent
      not redeemed will be issued in the name of the Holder of the Notes upon

      condition to such redemption.

     

    At
      the
      Issuer’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the
      Issuer’s name and at its expense; provided
      that the
      Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least 2 Business Days before
      notice of redemption is required to be mailed or caused to be mailed to Holders
      pursuant to this Section 3.03 (unless a shorter notice shall be agreed to by
      the
      Trustee), an Officer’s Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice
      and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in
      the
      preceding paragraph.

                Effect of Notice of
                Redemption.

            

    

     

    Once
      notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof, Notes
      called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the Redemption
      Date
      at the redemption price (except as provided for in Section 3.07(e) hereof).
      The
      notice, if mailed in a manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed
      to
      have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case,
      failure to give such notice by mail or any defect in the notice to the Holder
      of
      any Note designated for redemption in whole or in part shall not affect the
      validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Note. Subject to
      Section 3.05 hereof, on and after the redemption date, interest ceases to accrue
      on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

     

    
      	Section
              3.05  	
                
                Deposit of Redemption or Purchase
                Price.

            

    

     

    Prior
      to
      10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the redemption or purchase date, the Issuer
      shall deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to
      pay
      the redemption or purchase price of and accrued and unpaid interest (including
      Special Interest, if any) on all Notes to be redeemed or purchased on that
      date.
      The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Issuer any money
      deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Issuer in excess of the
      amounts necessary to pay the redemption price of, and accrued and unpaid
      interest on, all Notes to be redeemed or purchased.

     

    If
      the
      Issuer complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after
      the
      redemption or purchase date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or
      the
      portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase. If a Note is redeemed
      or
      purchased on or after a Record Date but on or prior to the related Interest
      Payment Date, then any accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption or purchase
      date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at
      the
      close of business on such Record Date. If any Note called for redemption or
      purchase shall not be so paid upon surrender for redemption or purchase because
      of the failure of the Issuer to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest
      shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption or purchase date
      until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest accrued
      to the redemption or purchase date not paid on such unpaid principal, in each
      case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof.

                Part.

            

    

     

    Upon
      surrender of a Note that is redeemed or purchased in part, the Issuer shall
      issue and the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder at the expense of the
      Issuer a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed or unpurchased
      portion of the Note surrendered representing the same indebtedness to the extent
      not redeemed or purchased; provided
      that
      each new Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple
      of
      $1,000 in excess thereof. It is understood that, notwithstanding anything in
      this Indenture to the contrary, only an Authentication Order and not an Opinion
      of Counsel or Officer’s Certificate is required for the Trustee to authenticate
      such new Note.

    (a)  Except
      as
      set forth below, the Issuer will not be entitled to redeem Notes at its option
      prior to July 15, 2012.

     

    (b)  At
      any
      time prior to July 15, 2012, the Issuer 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 the registered address of each Holder of Notes or otherwise in
      accordance with the procedures of DTC, at a redemption price equal to 100%
      of
      the principal amount of the Notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium as of,
      and accrued and unpaid interest and Special Interest, if any, to the date of
      redemption (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.

     

    (c)  On
      and
      after July 15, 2012, the Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part,
      upon
      not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice mailed by first-class mail
      to the registered address of each Holder of Notes or otherwise in accordance
      with the procedures of DTC, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages
      of principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed) 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 Notes of record on the

    (d)   In
      addition, until July 15, 2010, the Issuer may, at its option, on one or more
      occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes at a
      redemption price equal to 111.875% 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 Notes of record
      on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest
      Payment Date, with the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings;
provided
      that at
      least 50% of the sum of the original aggregate principal amount of Notes issued
      under this Indenture and the original principal amount of any Additional Notes
      issued under this Indenture after the Issue Date 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.

    (e)   Any
      notice of any redemption may be given prior to the redemption thereof, and
      any
      such redemption or notice may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or
      more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of an
      Equity Offering or other corporate transaction.

     

    (f)    If
      the
      Issuer redeems less than all of the outstanding Notes, the Trustee shall select
      the Notes to be redeemed in the manner described under Section 3.02
      hereof.

     

    (g)    Any
      redemption pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall be made pursuant to the
      provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06 hereof.

     

    
      	Section
              3.08  	
                
                Mandatory Redemption.

            

    

     

    (a)    Except
      as
      set forth in Section 3.08(b) hereof, the Issuer will not be required to make
      any
      mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.

     

    (b)    If
      the
      Notes would otherwise constitute “applicable high yield discount obligations”
within the meaning of Section 163(i)(1) of the Code, at the end of each accrual
      period ending after the fifth anniversary of the Notes' issuance (each, an
      “AHYDO
      redemption date”),
      the
      Issuer will be required to redeem for cash a portion of each Note then
      outstanding equal to the “Mandatory Principal Redemption Amount” (such
      redemption, a “Mandatory
      Principal Redemption”).
      The
      redemption price for the portion of each Note redeemed pursuant to a Mandatory
      Principal Redemption will be 100% of the principal amount of such portion plus
      any accrued interest thereon on the date of redemption. The “Mandatory
      Principal Redemption Amount”
means,
      as of each AHYDO redemption date, the excess, if any, of (a) the aggregate
      amount of accrued and unpaid interest and all accrued and unpaid “original issue
      discount” (as defined in Section 1273(a)(1) of the Code) with respect to the
      Notes, over (b) an amount equal to the product of (i) the “issue price” (as
      defined in Sections 1273(b) and 1274(a) of the Code) of the Notes multiplied
      by
      (ii) the “yield to maturity” (as defined in the Treasury Regulation Section
      1.1272-1(b)(1)(i)) of the Notes. No partial redemption or repurchase of the
      senior notes prior to any AHYDO redemption date pursuant to any other provision
      of this Indenture will alter the Issuer's obligation to make any Mandatory
      Principal Redemption with respect to any Notes that remain outstanding on such
      AHYDO redemption date.

     

    Any
      redemption pursuant to this Section 3.08 shall be made pursuant to the
      provisions of Section 3.01 through 3.06 hereof.

     

    
      	Section
              3.09  	
                
                Asset Sales.

            

    

     

    (a)  In
      the
      event that, pursuant to Section 4.10 hereof, the Issuer shall be required to
      commence an Asset Sale Offer, it shall follow the procedures specified
      below.

     

    (b)  The
      Asset
      Sale Offer shall remain open for a period of 20 Business Days following its
      commencement and no longer, except to the extent that a longer period is
      required by applicable law (the “Offer
      Period”).
      No
      later than five Business Days after the termination of the Offer Period (the
      “Purchase
      Date”),
      the
      Issuer shall apply all Excess Proceeds (the “Offer
      Amount”)
      to the
      purchase of Notes and, if required or permitted by the terms thereof, any Senior
      Indebtedness (on a pro
      rata
      basis),
      or, if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes and Senior
      Indebtedness tendered in response to the Asset Sale Offer. Payment for any
      Notes
      so purchased shall be made in the same manner as interest payments are
      made.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -55-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    (c)  If
      the
      Purchase Date is on or after a Record Date and on or before the related Interest
      Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest and Special Interest, if any,
      up
      to but excluding the Purchase Date, shall be paid to the Person in whose name
      a
      Note is registered at the close of business on such Record Date, and no
      additional interest shall be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to
      the
      Asset Sale Offer.

     

    (d)  Upon
      the
      commencement of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer shall send, by first-class
      mail,
      a notice to each of the Holders, with a copy to the Trustee. The notice shall
      contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to
      tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. The Asset Sale Offer shall be
      made to all Holders and holders of Senior Indebtedness. The notice, which shall
      govern the terms of the Asset Sale Offer, shall state:

     

    (i)  that
      the
      Asset Sale Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3.09 and Section 4.10
      hereof and the length of time the Asset Sale Offer shall remain
      open;

     

    (ii)  the
      Offer
      Amount, the purchase price and the Purchase Date;

     

    (iii)  that
      any
      Note not tendered or accepted for payment shall continue to accrue
      interest;

     

    (iv)  that,
      unless the Issuer defaults in making such payment, any Note accepted for payment
      pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer shall cease to accrue interest after the
      Purchase Date;

     

    (v)  that
      Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer may
      elect to have Notes purchased in the minimum amount of $2,000 or an integral
      multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof only;

     

    (vi)  that
      Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to any Asset Sale Offer
      shall
      be required to surrender the Note, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to
      Elect Purchase” attached to the Note completed, or transfer by book-entry
      transfer, to the Issuer, the Depositary, if appointed by the Issuer, or a Paying
      Agent at the address specified in the notice at least three days before the
      Purchase Date;

     

    (vii)  that
      Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Issuer, the
      Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, not later than
      the
      expiration of the Offer Period, a facsimile transmission or letter setting
      forth
      the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note the Holder delivered
      for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to
      have such Note purchased;

     

    (viii)  that,
      if
      the aggregate principal amount of Notes and Senior Indebtedness surrendered
      by
      the holders thereof exceeds the Offer Amount, the Trustee shall select the
      Notes
      and such Senior Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro
      rata
      basis
      based on the accreted value or principal amount of the Notes or such Senior
      Indebtedness tendered (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by
      the
      Trustee so that only Notes in minimum denominations of $2,000, or integral
      multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, shall be purchased); and

     

    (ix)  that
      Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part shall be issued new Notes equal
      in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered (or
      transferred by book-entry transfer) representing the same indebtedness to the
      extent not repurchased.

    (e)  On
      or
      before the Purchase Date, the Issuer shall, to the extent lawful, (1) accept
      for
      payment, on a pro
      rata
      basis to
      the extent necessary, the Offer Amount of Notes or portions thereof validly
      tendered pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer or, if less than the Offer Amount
      has
      been tendered, all Notes tendered and (2) deliver or cause to be delivered
      to
      the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate
      stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions thereof so
      tendered.

     

    (f)  The
      Issuer, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, shall promptly
      mail or deliver to each tendering Holder an amount equal to the purchase price
      of the Notes properly tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Issuer for
      purchase, and the Issuer shall promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee,
      upon
      receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate and mail or deliver
      (or
      cause to be transferred by book-entry) such new Note to such Holder (it being
      understood that, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, no
      Opinion of Counsel or Officer’s Certificate is required for the Trustee to
      authenticate and mail or deliver such new Note) in a principal amount equal
      to
      any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered representing the same
      indebtedness to the extent not repurchased; provided
      that
      each such new Note shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral
      multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly
      mailed or delivered by the Issuer to the Holder thereof. The Issuer shall
      publicly announce the results of the Asset Sale Offer on or as soon as
      practicable after the Purchase Date.

     

    Other
      than as specifically provided in this Section 3.09 or Section 4.10, any purchase
      pursuant to this Section 3.09 shall be made pursuant to the applicable
      provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06 hereof.

      required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address
      thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or
      served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee.

     

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

     

    The
      Issuer hereby designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee as one such
      office or agency of the Issuer in accordance with Section 2.03
      hereof.

    (a)  Notwithstanding
      that the Issuer 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 SEC, the Issuer shall
      file
      with the SEC (and make available to the Trustee and Holders of the Notes
      (without exhibits), without cost to any Holder, within 15 days after the
      Issuer files with the SEC) from and after the Issue Date,

     

              (1)  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
      by a non-accelerated filer) 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;

     

              (2)  within
      45
      days after the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of each fiscal
      year, reports on Form 10-Q containing all information that would be
      required to be contained in Form 10-Q, or any successor or comparable
      form;

     

              (3)  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

      information, documents and other reports which the Issuer would be required
      to
      file with the SEC if it were subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange
      Act;

     

    in
      each
      case in a manner that complies in all material respects with the requirements
      specified in such form; provided
      that the
      Issuer shall not be so obligated to file such reports with the SEC if the SEC
      does not permit such filing, in which event the Issuer shall make available
      such
      information to prospective purchasers of Notes, in addition to providing such
      information to the Trustee and the Holders of the

    Notes,
      in
      each case within 15 days after the time the Issuer would be required to file
      such information with the SEC if it were subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of
      the Exchange Act. In addition, to the extent not satisfied by the foregoing,
      the
      Issuer shall, for so long as any Notes are outstanding, furnish or otherwise
      make available to Holders and to securities analysts and prospective investors,
      upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule
      144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act.

     

    In
      the
      event that any direct or indirect parent company of the Issuer becomes a
      Guarantor of the Notes, the Issuer may satisfy its obligations under this
      Section 4.03 with respect to financial information relating to the Issuer by
      furnishing financial information relating to such parent; provided
      that the
      same is accompanied by consolidating information that explains in reasonable
      detail the differences between the information relating to such parent, on
      the
      one hand, and the information relating to the Issuer and its Restricted
      Subsidiaries on a standalone basis, on the other hand.

     

    Notwithstanding
      the foregoing, the requirements of this Section 4.03 shall be deemed satisfied
      prior to the commencement of the Exchange Offer or the effectiveness of the
      Shelf Registration Statement described in the Registration Rights Agreement
      dated the date hereof (1) by the filing with the SEC of the Exchange Offer
      Registration Statement or Shelf Registration Statement (or any other similar
      registration statement), and any amendments thereto, with such financial
      information that satisfies Regulation S-X, subject to exceptions consistent
      with
      the presentation of financial information in the Offering Circular, to the
      extent filed within the times specified above, or (2) by posting reports
      that would be required to be filed substantially in the form required by the
      SEC
      on the Issuer’s website (or that of any of its parent companies) or providing
      such reports to the Trustee within 15 days after the time the Issuer would
      be
      required to file such information with the SEC if the Issuer were subject to
      Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the financial information (including
      a
“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
      Operations” section) that would be required to be included in such reports,
      subject to exceptions consistent with the presentation of financial information
      in the Offering Circular, in each case, to the extent filed within the times
      specified above. Notwithstanding
      anything herein to the contrary, the Issuer will not be deemed to have failed
      to
      comply with any of its agreements set forth under this Section 4.03 for purposes
      of Section 6.01(3) until 120 days after the date any report is required to
      be filed with the SEC (or posted on the Issuer's website or provided to the
      Trustee) pursuant to this Section 4.03.

      from the principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal
      accounting officer stating that a review of the activities of the Issuer and
      its
      Restricted Subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal year has been made under
      the
      supervision of the signing Officer with a view to determining whether the Issuer
      has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled its obligations under this
      Indenture, and further stating, as to such Officer signing such certificate,
      that to the best of his or her knowledge the Issuer has kept, observed,
      performed and fulfilled each and every condition and covenant contained in
      this
      Indenture and is not in default in the performance or observance of any of
      the

      shall have occurred, describing all such Defaults of which he or she may have
      knowledge and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect
      thereto).

     

    (b)  When

      Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture, or if the Trustee

      the extent of the amount actually received from its Unrestricted Subsidiaries,
      in amounts required to pay such taxes to the extent attributable to the income

      continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof.

     

    The
      Issuer shall not permit any Unrestricted Subsidiary to become a Restricted
      Subsidiary except pursuant to the last sentence of the definition of
“Unrestricted Subsidiary.” For purposes of designating any Restricted Subsidiary
      as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, all outstanding Investments by the Issuer and
      its
      Restricted Subsidiaries (except to the extent repaid) in the Subsidiary so
      designated shall be deemed to be Restricted Payments in an amount determined
      as
      set forth in the last sentence of the definition of “Investments.” Such
      designation shall be permitted only if a Restricted Payment in such amount
      would
      be permitted at such time, whether pursuant to Section 4.07(a) hereof or under
      clause (7), (10) or (11) of Section 4.07(b), or pursuant to the
      definition of “Permitted Investments,” and if such Subsidiary otherwise meets
      the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. 

     

    Notwithstanding
      the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.07, the Issuer will not, and will
      not
      permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, pay any cash dividend or make
      any
      cash distribution on or in respect of the Issuer’s Capital Stock or purchase for
      cash or otherwise acquire for cash any Capital Stock of the Issuer or any direct
      or indirect parent of the Issuer, for the purpose of paying any cash dividend
      or
      making any cash distribution to, or acquiring Capital Stock of any direct or
      indirect parent of the Issuer for cash from, the Investors, or Guarantee any
      Indebtedness of any Affiliate of the

        for the purpose of paying such dividend, making such distribution or so
        acquiring such Capital Stock to or from the Investors, in each case by means
        of
        utilization of the cumulative Restricted Payment credit provided by Section
        4.07(a), or the exceptions provided by clauses (1), (7) or (11) of Section
        4.07(b) or clauses (8) or (13) of the definition of “Permitted Investments”,
        unless at the time and after giving effect to such payment, the Consolidated
        Leverage Ratio of the Issuer would be equal to or less than
        6.00:1.00.

      under
      clause (1) of Section 4.09(b) hereof; and

     

            (2)    at
      the
      time of incurrence, the Issuer will be entitled to divide and classify an item
      of Indebtedness in more than one of the types of Indebtedness 

        described
      in
      Section 4.09(a) and 4.09(b) hereof.

     

            Accrual
      of interest,
      the accretion of accreted value and the payment of interest in the form of
      additional Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock
      shall not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock
      or
      Preferred Stock for purposes of this Section 4.09.

        

          
      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 

     

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -73-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    currency
      exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such respective Indebtedness
      is denominated that is in effect
      on
      the date of such refinancing.

     

    For
      purposes of this Indenture, Indebtedness that is unsecured is not deemed to
      be
      subordinated or junior to Secured Indebtedness merely because it is unsecured,
      and Senior Indebtedness not deemed to be subordinated or junior to any other
      Senior Indebtedness merely because it has a junior priority with respect to
      the
      same collateral.

              4.10  	
                
                Asset Sales.

            

    

     

    (a)    The
      Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to
      consummate, directly or indirectly, an Asset Sale, unless:

     

    (1)    the
      Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, 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 Issuer) of the assets sold or otherwise disposed
      of; and

     

    (2)    except
      in
      the case of a Permitted Asset Swap, at least 75% of the consideration therefor
      received by the Issuer 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 Issuer’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most
      recent balance sheet or in the footnotes thereto) of the Issuer or such
      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 Issuer and all of its Restricted Subsidiaries have been
      validly released by all creditors in writing,

     

    (B)    any
      securities received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from such
      transferee that are converted by the Issuer 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 Non-cash Consideration received by the Issuer or such Restricted
      Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate fair market value, taken
      together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant
      to
      this clause (C) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed 5.0% of
      Total Assets at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-cash
      Consideration, with the fair market value of each item of Designated Non-cash
      Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect
      to
      subsequent changes in value,

     

    shall
      be
      deemed to be cash for purposes of this provision and for no other
      purpose.

     

    (b)    Within
      360 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale, the Issuer
      or
      such Restricted Subsidiary, at its option, may apply the Net Proceeds from
      such
      Asset Sale,

     

    (1)    to
      permanently reduce:

     

    (A)    Obligations
      under any Senior Indebtedness, the Notes or any other Senior Indebtedness,
      in
      each case, of the Issuer or any Guarantor (other than
      Obligations owed to the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary) and, in the case
      of
      Obligations under revolving credit facilities or other 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -74-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

           similar
        Indebtedness, to
        correspondingly permanently reduce commitments with respect thereto;
provided
        that
        if
        the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary shall so 

          reduce
        Obligations under any Senior Subordinated Indebtedness, the Issuer or such
        Guarantor will, equally and ratably, reduce Obligations under the Notes by,
        

          at
        its
        option, (A) redeeming Notes, (B) making an offer (in accordance with
        the procedures set forth below for an Asset Sale Offer) to all Holders to
        purchase 

          their
        Notes
        at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus
        the
        amount of accrued and unpaid interest and Special Interest, if any, on the
        principal amount of 

          Notes
        to be
        repurchased or (C) purchasing Notes through open market purchases (to the
        extent such purchases are at a price equal to or higher than 100% of

          the
        principal
        amount thereof) in a manner that complies with this Indenture and applicable
        securities law; or;

       

    

            (B)    Indebtedness
      of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor, other than Indebtedness
      owed
      to the Issuer or another Restricted Subsidiary;

     

            (2)    
to
      make
      (a) an Investment in 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 Issuer or another of its Restricted Subsidiaries,
      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; or

     

            (3)    to
      make
      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 Issuer or another of its Restricted Subsidiaries,
      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) acquisitions of other assets that, in each of (a), (b) and (c),
      replace the businesses, properties and/or assets that are the subject of such
      Asset Sale;

     

    provided
      that, in
      the case of clauses (2) and (3) 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 Issuer, or such other Restricted Subsidiary enters
      into such commitment with the good faith expectation that such Net Proceeds
      will
      be applied to satisfy such commitment within 180 days of such commitment (an
      “Acceptable
      Commitment”)
      and,
      in the event any Acceptable Commitment is later cancelled or terminated for
      any
      reason before the Net Proceeds are applied in connection therewith, the Issuer
      or such Restricted Subsidiary enters into another Acceptable Commitment (a
      “Second
      Commitment”)
      within
      180 days of such cancellation or termination; provided,
      further,
      that if
      any Second Commitment is later cancelled or terminated for any reason before
      such Net Proceeds are applied, then such Net Proceeds shall constitute Excess
      Proceeds.

     

            (c)    Any
      Net
      Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not invested or applied as provided and
      within the time period set forth Section 4.10(b) shall be deemed to constitute
      “Excess
      Proceeds.”
When
      the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $75.0 million, the Issuer
      shall make an offer to all Holders of the Notes and, if required or permitted
      by
      the terms of any Senior Indebtedness, to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness
      (an “Asset
      Sale Offer”),
      to
      purchase the maximum aggregate principal amount of the Notes and such Senior
      Indebtedness that is a minimum of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000
      in
      excess thereof 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, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this
      Indenture. The Issuer will commence an Asset Sale Offer with respect to Excess
      Proceeds within ten Business Days after the date that Excess Proceeds exceed
      $75.0 million by mailing the notice required pursuant to the terms of this
      Indenture, with a copy to the Trustee.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -75-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    To
      the
      extent that the aggregate amount of Notes and such Senior Indebtedness tendered
      pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Issuer
      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 such Senior Subordinated Indebtedness surrendered by such holders
      thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the
      Notes and such other Senior Indebtedness, as determined by the Issuer, to be
      purchased on a pro
      rata
      basis
      based on the accreted value or principal amount of the Notes or such Senior
      Indebtedness tendered. Upon completion of any such Asset Sale Offer, the amount
      of Excess Proceeds, shall be reset at zero. Additionally, the Issuer may, at
      its
      option, make an Asset Sale Offer using proceeds from any Asset Sale at any
      time
      after consummation of such Asset Sale; provided
      that
      such Asset Sale Offer shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than
      $75.0 million. Upon consummation of such Asset Sale Offer, any Net Proceeds
      not required to be used to purchase Notes shall not be deemed Excess
      Proceeds.

     

    (d)    Pending
      the final application of any Net Proceeds pursuant to this Section 4.11, the
      holder of such Net Proceeds may apply such Net Proceeds temporarily to reduce
      Indebtedness outstanding under a revolving credit facility or otherwise invest
      such Net Proceeds in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture.

     

    (e)    The
      Issuer shall 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 an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any
      securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Indenture,
      the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations
      and
      shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations described in this Indenture
      by virtue thereof.

      (each of the foregoing, an “Affiliate

      involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $15.0 million,

      Issuer or its relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been
      obtained in a comparable transaction by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary
      with an unrelated Person on an arm’s-length basis; and

     

              (2)  the
      Issuer delivers to the Trustee with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or
      series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate payments or
      consideration in excess of $25.0 million, a resolution adopted by the
      majority of the board of directors of the Issuer approving such Affiliate
      Transaction and set forth in an Officer’s Certificate certifying that such
      Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (1) of this Section
      4.11(a).

      a
      financial point of view or stating that the terms are not materially less
      favorable to the Issuer or its relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that

      or operation of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries; provided
      that in
      each case the amount of such payments in any fiscal year does not exceed the
      amount that the Issuer, its Restricted Subsidiaries and its Unrestricted
      Subsidiaries (to the extent of amounts received from Unrestricted Subsidiaries)
      would be required to pay in respect of foreign, federal, state and local taxes
      for such fiscal year were the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (to the
      extent described above) to pay such taxes separately from any such parent
      entity.

      create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien (except Permitted Liens)
      that
      secures obligations under any Senior Subordinated Indebtedness or Subordinated
      Indebtedness or any related Guarantee, on any asset or property of the Issuer
      or
      any Guarantor now owned or hereafter acquired, or any income or profits
      therefrom, or assign or convey any right to receive income therefrom,
      unless:

     

              (1)  in
      the
      case of Liens securing Subordinated Indebtedness, the Notes and related
      Guarantees are secured by a Lien on such property, assets or proceeds that
      is
      senior in priority to such Liens; or

     

              (2)  in
      all
      other cases, the Notes or the Guarantees are equally and ratably secured or
      are
      secured by a Lien on such property, assets or proceeds that is senior in
      priority to such Liens;

     

    Any
      Lien
      which is granted to secure the Notes under this Section 4.12 shall be discharged
      at the same time as the discharge of the Lien (other than through the exercise
      of remedies with respect thereto) that gave rise to the obligation to so secure
      the Notes.

    Subject
      to Article 5 hereof, the Issuer shall do or cause to be done all things
      necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect (i) its corporate
      existence, and the corporate, partnership or other existence of each of its
      Restricted Subsidiaries, in accordance with the respective organizational
      documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of the Issuer or any
      such Restricted Subsidiary and (ii) the rights (charter and statutory), licenses
      and franchises of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided
      that the
      Issuer shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise,
      or the corporate, partnership or other existence of any of its Restricted
      Subsidiaries, if the Issuer in good faith shall determine that the preservation
      thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Issuer
      and
      its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

                Offer to Repurchase upon Change of
                Control.

            

    

     

    (a)  If
      a
      Change of Control occurs, unless the Issuer has previously or concurrently
      mailed a redemption notice with respect to all the outstanding Notes as
      described under Section 3.07 hereof, the Issuer shall make an offer to purchase
      all 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, if any, to the date of purchase, subject to
      the
      right of Holders of the Notes of record on the relevant Record Date to receive
      interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date. Within 30 days following
      any
      Change of Control, the Issuer shall send notice of such Change of Control Offer
      by first-class mail, with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder of Notes to
      the
      address of such Holder appearing in the security register with a copy to the
      Trustee or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of DTC, with the
      following information:

     

              (1)  that
      a
      Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.14 and that
      all
      Notes properly tendered pursuant to such Change of 

        Control
      Offer
      will be accepted for payment by the Issuer;

     

              (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 (the 

        “Change
      of Control Payment Date”);

     

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

     

              (4)  that
      unless the Issuer 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)  that
      Holders electing to have any Notes purchased pursuant to a Change of Control
      Offer will be required to surrender such Notes, with the 

        form
      entitled
“Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of such 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)  that
      Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their tendered Notes and their election
      to
      require the Issuer to purchase such Notes, provided
      that the

        paying
      agent
      receives, not later than the close of business on the 30th day following the
      date of the Change of Control notice, a 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -79-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

        facsimile
      transmission or letter setting
      forth the name of the Holder of the Notes, the principal amount of Notes
      tendered for purchase, and a statement 

        that such
      Holder
      is withdrawing its tendered
      Notes and its election to have such Notes purchased;

     

     

              (7)  that
      if
      the Issuer is redeeming less than all of the Notes, the Holders of the remaining
      Notes will be issued new Notes and such new Notes will 

        be
      equal in
      principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered. The
      unpurchased portion of the Notes must be equal to $2,000 or an integral

        multiple
      of
      $1,000 in excess thereof; and

     

              (8)  the
      other
      instructions, as determined by the Issuer, consistent with this Section 4.14,
      that a Holder must follow.

     

    The
      notice, if mailed in a manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed
      to
      have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. If (a) the
      notice is mailed in a manner herein provided and (b) any Holder fails to receive
      such notice or a Holder receives such notice but it is defective, such Holder’s
      failure to receive such notice or such defect shall not affect the validity
      of
      the proceedings for the purchase of the Notes as to all other Holders that
      properly received such notice without defect. The Issuer shall 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 Notes pursuant to a Change of Control
      Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations
      conflict with the provisions of this Indenture, the Issuer shall comply with
      the
      applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have
      breached its obligations under this Indenture by virtue thereof.

     

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

     

              (1)  accept
      for payment all Notes issued by it or portions thereof properly tendered
      pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

     

              (2)  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

     

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

     

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

     

    (d)  The
      Issuer shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer following a
      Change of Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the
      manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set
      forth
      in this Section 4.14 applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer
      and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change
      of
      Control Offer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Change of
      Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditional upon
      such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change
      of
      Control at the time of making of the Change of Control Offer.

    (e)  Other
      than as specifically provided in this Section 4.14, any purchase pursuant to
      this Section 4.14 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.02,
      3.05 and 3.06 hereof.

                Subsidiaries.

            

    

    
    

    The
      Issuer shall not permit any of its Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries that are Restricted
      Subsidiaries (and non-Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries if such non-Wholly-Owned
      Subsidiaries guarantee other capital markets debt securities of the Issuer
      or
      any Guarantor), other than a Guarantor, a Foreign Subsidiary or a Receivables
      Subsidiary, to guarantee the payment of any Indebtedness of the Issuer or any
      other Guarantor unless:

     

    (1)    such
      Restricted Subsidiary within 30 days executes and delivers a supplemental
      indenture to this Indenture, the form of which is attached as Exhibit
      D
      hereto,
      providing for a Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary, except that with
      respect to a guarantee of Indebtedness of the Issuer or any
      Guarantor:

     

     
      (a)    if
      the
      Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee 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; and

     

     
      (b)    if
      such
      Indebtedness is by its express terms subordinated in right of payment to the
      Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee, any such guarantee by such Restricted
      Subsidiary with respect to such Indebtedness shall be subordinated in right
      of
      payment to such Guarantee substantially to the same extent as such Indebtedness
      is subordinated to the Notes; and

     

    (2)    such
      Restricted Subsidiary waives and shall 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 Issuer or any other Restricted
      Subsidiary as a result of any payment by such Restricted Subsidiary under its
      Guarantee;

     

    provided
      that
      this Section 4.15 shall not be applicable to (i) any guarantee of any
      Restricted Subsidiary that existed at the time such Person became a Restricted
      Subsidiary and was not incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of,
      such
      Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary and (ii) guarantees of the
      Receivables Facility by any Receivables Subsidiary.

    The
      Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any Guarantor to, directly or indirectly,
      incur any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) that is subordinate
      in
      right of payment to any Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer or such Guarantor,
      as
      the case may be, unless such Indebtedness is either:

     

    (1)  equal
      in
      right of payment with the Notes or such Guarantor's Guarantee of the Notes,
      as
      the case may be; or

     

    (2)  expressly
      subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or such Guarantor's Guarantee
      of
      the Notes, as the case may be provided that
      this covenant shall not apply to Indebtedness incurred under Section 4.09(b)(1)
      of this Indenture.

    This
      Indenture shall not treat (1) unsecured Indebtedness as subordinated or
      junior to Secured Indebtedness merely because it is unsecured or (2) Senior
      Indebtedness as subordinated or junior to any other Senior Indebtedness merely
      because it has a junior priority with respect to the same
      collateral.

      Notwithstanding clauses (3) and (4) of Section 5.01(a) hereof,

     

    (1)    any
      Restricted Subsidiary may consolidate with or merge into or transfer all or
      part
      of its properties and assets to the Issuer, and

     

    (2)    the
      Issuer may merge with an Affiliate of the Issuer, as the case may be, solely
      for
      the purpose of reincorporating the Issuer in a State of the United States or

      state thereof, the District of Columbia or any territory thereof so long as
      the
      amount of Indebtedness of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries is not
      increased thereby.

     

    (c)    Subject
      to certain limitations described in this Indenture governing release of a
      Guarantee upon the sale, disposition or transfer of a Guarantor, no Guarantor
      shall, and the Issuer shall not permit any Guarantor to, consolidate or merge
      with or into or wind up into (whether or not the Issuer or Guarantor is the
      surviving corporation), or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise
      dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets, in one or
      more
      related transactions, to any Person unless:

     

    (1)    (A) 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

      been made is a corporation, partnership, limited partnership, limited liability
      corporation or trust organized or existing under the laws of the jurisdiction
      of

      after such transaction, no Default exists; and

     

    (D)    the
      Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an
      Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger or transfer
      and

      another Guarantor or the Issuer, (ii) merge with an Affiliate of the Issuer
      solely for the purpose of reincorporating the Guarantor in the United States,
      any state thereof, the District of Columbia or any territory thereof or (iii)
      convert into a corporation, partnership, limited partnership, limited liability
      corporation or trust organized or existing under the laws of the jurisdiction
      of
      organization of such Guarantor.

     

    (e)    Notwithstanding

                Events of Default.

            

    

     

    (a)  An
      “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 voluntary or involuntary
      or be
      effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of
      any
      court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental
      body):

     

    (1)  default
      in payment when due and payable, upon redemption, acceleration or otherwise,
      of
      principal of, or premium, if any, on the Notes,
      whether
      or not such payment is prohibited by the subordination provisions of this
      Indenture;

     

    (2)  default
      for 30 days or more in the payment when due of interest or Special Interest
      on
      or with respect to the Notes,
      whether
      or not such payment is prohibited by the subordination provisions of this
      Indenture;

     

    (3)  failure
      by the Issuer or any Guarantor for 60 days after receipt of written notice
      given
      by the Trustee or the Holders of not less 30% in principal amount of the Notes
      then outstanding under this Indenture to comply with any of its obligations,
      covenants or agreements (other than a default referred to in clauses (1)
      and (2) above) contained in this Indenture or the Notes;

     

    (4)  default
      under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there is issued or
      by
      which there is secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by
      the
      Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or the payment of which is
      guaranteed by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, other than
      Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary, whether such
      Indebtedness or guarantee now exists or is created after the issuance of the
      Notes, if both:

     

            (a)    such
      default either results from the failure to pay any principal of such
      Indebtedness at its stated final maturity (after 

      giving
      effect to any
      applicable grace periods) or relates to an obligation other than the obligation
      to pay principal of any such 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -84-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

                    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
      $50.0 million or more at any one time outstanding;

     

    (5)  failure
      by the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary (or group of Subsidiaries that
      together would constitute a Significant Subsidiary) to pay final judgments
      aggregating in excess of $50.0 million, which final judgments remain
      unpaid, undischarged and unstayed for a period of more than 60 days after such
      judgment becomes final, and in the event 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;

     

    (6)  the
      Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary
      or
      any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute
      a
      Significant Subsidiary, pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy
      Law:

     

              
(i)    commences
      proceedings to be adjudicated bankrupt or insolvent;

     

               (ii)    consents
      to the institution of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings against it, or the
      filing by it of a petition or answer or 

        consent
      seeking reorganization or relief under applicable Bankruptcy law;

     

                (iii)    consents
      to the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator
      or
      other similar official of it or for all 

        or
      substantially all of its property;

     

                (iv)    makes

    (7)  a
      court
      of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law
      that:

     

              
(i)    is
      for
      relief against the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a
      Significant Subsidiary or any group of 

        Restricted
      Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary,
      in
      a proceeding in which the Issuer or any such Restricted 

        Subsidiaries,
      that is
      a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken
      together, would constitute a Significant 

        Subsidiary,

                (ii)    appoints
      a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or other similar
      official of the Issuer or any of its Restricted 

        Subsidiaries
      that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that,
      taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, 

        or
      for all or
      substantially all of the property of the Issuer or any of its Restricted
      Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of 

        Restricted
      Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary;
      or

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -85-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

                (iii)    orders
      the liquidation of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is
      a
      Significant Subsidiary or any group of 

        Restricted
      Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant
      Subsidiary;

     

    and
      the
      order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days;
      or

     

                    (8)  the
      Guarantee of any Significant Subsidiary (or
      group
      of Subsidiaries that together would constitute a Significant
      Subsidiary)
      shall
      for 

          any
      reason cease to be in full
      force and effect or be 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; or

     

                    (b)  In
      the
      event of any Event of Default specified in clause (4) of Section 6.01(a) hereof,
      such Event of Default and all 

          consequences thereof
      (excluding any resulting payment default, other than as a result of acceleration
      of the Notes) 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:

     

    (1)  the
      Indebtedness or guarantee that is the basis for such Event of Default has been
      discharged; or

     

    (2)  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

     

    (3)  the
      default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured.

     

    
      	Section
              6.02  	
                
                Acceleration.

            

    

     

    (a)  If
      any
      Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (6) or
      (7)
      of Section 6.01(a) hereof) occurs and is continuing under this Indenture,
      the Trustee or the Holders of at least 30% in principal amount of the then
      outstanding Notes under this Indenture may declare the principal, premium,
      if
      any, interest and any other monetary obligations on all the then outstanding
      Notes to be due and payable immediately. Upon the effectiveness of such
      declaration, such principal and interest shall be due and payable immediately.
      The Trustee shall have no obligation to accelerate the Notes if and so long
      as a
      committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines acceleration
      is
      not in the best interest of the Holders of the Notes.

     

    (b)  Notwithstanding
      the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising under clause (6)
      or
      (7) of Section 6.01(a) hereof, all outstanding Notes shall be due and payable
      immediately without further action or notice.

     

    (c)  The
      Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding
      Notes by written notice to the Trustee may on behalf of all of the Holders
      rescind an acceleration and its consequences if the rescission would not
      conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default
      (except nonpayment of principal, interest, Special Interest, if any, or premium
      that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or
      waived.

              6.03  	
                
                Other Remedies.

            

    

     

    If
      an
      Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available
      remedy to collect the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on
      the
      Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this
      Indenture.

     

    The
      Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes
      or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the
      Trustee or any Holder of a Note in exercising any right or remedy accruing
      upon
      an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver
      of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are cumulative to
      the
      extent permitted by law.

     

    
      	Section
              6.04  	
                
                Waiver of Past Defaults.

            

    

     

    Holders
      of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then
      outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of
      all
      of the Notes waive any existing Default and its consequences hereunder, except
      a
      continuing Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, Special
      Interest, if any, or interest on, any Note held by a non-consenting Holder
      (including in connection with an Asset Sale Offer or a Change of Control Offer);
      provided,
      subject
      to Section 6.02 hereof, that the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal
      amount of the then outstanding Notes may rescind an acceleration and its
      consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from such
      acceleration. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and
      any
      Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every
      purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent
      or
      other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

              6.05  	
                
                Control by Majority.

            

    

     

    Holders
      of a majority in principal amount of the then total outstanding Notes may 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
      this Indenture 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.

              6.06

    Subject
      to Section 6.07 hereof, no Holder of a Note may pursue any remedy with respect
      to this Indenture or the Notes:

     

    (1)  such
      Holder has previously given the Trustee notice that an Event of Default is
      continuing;

     

    (2)  Holders
      of at least 30% in principal amount of the total outstanding Notes have
      requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

     

    (3)  Holders
      of the Notes have offered the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against
      any loss, liability or expense;

     

    (4)  the
      Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt
      thereof and the offer of security or indemnity; and

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -87-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    (5)  Holders
      of a majority in principal amount of the total outstanding Notes have not given
      the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day
      period.

     

    A
      Holder
      of a Note may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder
      of a Note or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder of a
      Note.

      receive payment of principal, premium, if any, and Special Interest, if any,
      and
      interest on the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the
      Note
      (including in connection with an Asset Sale Offer or a Change of Control Offer),
      or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such
      respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of
      such
      Holder.

    If
      an
      Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(1) or (2) hereof occurs and is
      continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and
      as
      trustee of an express trust against the Issuer for the whole amount of principal
      of, premium, if any, and Special Interest, if any, and interest remaining unpaid
      on the Notes and interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful,
      interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs
      and
      expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses,
      disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

                Remedies.

            

    

     

    If
      the
      Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or
      remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or
      abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or
      to
      such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such
      proceedings, the Issuer, 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 has been instituted.

      otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated,
      destroyed, lost or stolen Notes in Section 2.07 hereof, no right or remedy
      herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended

      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

    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

                Trustee May File Proofs of
                Claim.

            

    

     

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

    If
      the
      Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article 6, it shall
      pay
      out the money or property in the following order:

     

    (i)  to
      the
      Trustee, its agents and attorneys for amounts due under Section 7.07 hereof,
      including payment of all compensation, expenses and liabilities incurred, and
      all advances made, by the Trustee and the costs and expenses of
      collection;

     

    (ii)  to
      holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company, and if such money or property
      has
      been collected from a Guarantor, to holders of Senior Indebtedness of such
      Guarantor, in each case to the extent required by Article 12 or Article 13
      hereof, as applicable;

     

    (iii)  to
      Holders of Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal, premium,
      if any, and Special Interest, if any, and interest, ratably, without preference
      or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes
      for principal, premium, if any, and Special Interest, if any, and interest,
      respectively; and

     

    (iv)  to
      the
      Issuer or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct
      including a Guarantor, if applicable.

     

           The
      Trustee may fix a record
      date and payment date for any payment to Holders of Notes pursuant to this
      Section 6.13.

    In
      any
      suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in
      any
      suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as a Trustee,
      a
      court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the
      suit
      of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion
      may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any
      party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith
      of
      the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.14 does not
      apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder of a Note pursuant to Section
      6.07 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the
      then outstanding Notes.

      	Section
              7.01  	
                
                Duties 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 its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use
      under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own
      affairs.

     

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

     

              (i)  the
      duties of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions
      of
      this Indenture and the Trustee need perform only those duties 

        that
      are
      specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others, and no implied covenants
      or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee;
      and

     

              (ii)  in
      the
      absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to
      the
      truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions 

        expressed
      therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming
      to the requirements of this Indenture. However, in the case of any such

        certificates
      or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be
      furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and

        opinions
      to
      determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this
      Indenture.

     

    (c)  The
      Trustee may not be relieved from liabilities for its own negligent action,
      its
      own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that:

     

              (i)  this
      paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section
      7.01;

     

              (ii)  the
      Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by
      a
      Responsible Officer, unless it is proved in a court of competent 

        jurisdiction
      that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;
      and

     

              (iii)  the
      Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to
      take
      in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it 

        pursuant
      to
      Section 6.05 hereof.

     

    (d)  Whether
      or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture that
      in
      any way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of
      this
      Section 7.01.

    (e)  The
      Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers
      under this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders of the
      Notes unless the Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity or
      security against any loss, liability or expense.

     

    (f)  The
      Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except
      as
      the Trustee may agree in writing with the Issuer. Money held in trust by the
      Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required
      by
      law.

     

    
      	Section
              7.02  	
                
                Rights of Trustee.

            

    

     

    (a)  The
      Trustee may conclusively rely upon any document believed by it to be genuine
      and
      to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Trustee need not
      investigate any fact or matter stated in the document, but the Trustee, in
      its
      discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts
      or
      matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such
      further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books,
      records and premises of the Issuer, personally or by agent or attorney at the
      sole cost of the Issuer and shall incur no liability or additional liability
      of
      any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation.

     

    (b)  Before
      the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officer’s
      Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both. The Trustee shall not be liable
      for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such
      Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. The Trustee may consult with
      counsel of its selection and the written advice of such counsel or any Opinion
      of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection from
      liability in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder
      in
      good faith and in reliance thereon.

     

    (c)  The
      Trustee may act through its attorneys and agents and shall not be responsible
      for the misconduct or negligence of any agent or attorney appointed with due
      care.

     

    (d)  The
      Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good
      faith that it believes to be authorized or within the rights or powers conferred
      upon it by this Indenture.

     

    (e)  Unless
      otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture, any demand, request,
      direction or notice from the Issuer shall be sufficient if signed by an Officer
      of the Issuer.

     

    (f)  None
      of
      the provisions of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk
      its
      own funds or otherwise to 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 indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or
      liability is not assured to it.

     

    (g)  The
      Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default
      unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or
      unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a Default is received
      by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice
      references the Notes and this Indenture

     

    (h)  In
      no
      event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, or
      consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited
      to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of
      the
      likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of
      action.

    (i)  The
      rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee,
      including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to,
      and
      shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and
      each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder.

     

    (j)  In
      the
      event the Issuer is required to pay Special Interest, the Issuer will provide
      written notice to the Trustee of the Issuer’s obligation to pay Special Interest
      no later than 15 days prior to the next Interest Payment Date, which notice
      shall set forth the amount of the Special Interest to be paid by the Issuer.
      The
      Trustee shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holders
      to determine whether the Special Interest is payable and the amount
      thereof.

     

    
      	Section
              7.03  	
                
                Individual Rights of
                Trustee.

            

    

     

    The
      Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee
      of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or any Affiliate of the Issuer
      with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. However, in the
      event
      that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate such
      conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as trustee
      or resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee
      is
      also subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11 hereof.

     

    
      	Section
              7.04  	
                
                Trustee’s Disclaimer.

            

    

     

    The
      Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the
      validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes, it shall not be accountable
      for the Issuer’s use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the
      Issuer or upon the Issuer’s direction under any provision of this Indenture, it
      shall not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by
      any
      Paying Agent other than the Trustee, and it shall not be responsible for any
      statement or recital herein or any statement in the Notes or any other document
      in connection with the sale of the Notes or pursuant to this Indenture other
      than its certificate of authentication.

     

    
      	Section
              7.05  	
                
                Notice of Defaults.

            

    

     

    If
      a
      Default occurs and is continuing and if it is known to the Trustee, the Trustee
      shall mail to Holders of Notes a notice of the Default within 90 days after
      it
      occurs. Except in the case of a Default relating to the payment of principal,
      premium, if any, or interest on any Note, the Trustee may withhold from the
      Holders notice of any continuing Default if and so long as a committee of its
      Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is
      in
      the interests of the Holders of the Notes. The Trustee shall not be deemed
      to
      know of any Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual
      knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is such a Default
      is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the
      Trustee.

              7.06

                Notes.

            

    

     

    Within
      60
      days after each May 15, beginning with the May 15 following the date
      of this Indenture, and for so long as Notes remain outstanding, the Trustee
      shall mail to the Holders of the Notes a brief report dated as of such reporting
      date that complies with Trust Indenture Act Section 313(a) (but if no event
      described in Trust Indenture Act Section 313(a) has occurred within the twelve
      months preceding the reporting date, no report need be transmitted). The Trustee
      also shall comply with Trust Indenture Act Section 313(b)(2). The Trustee
      shall also transmit by mail all reports as required by Trust Indenture Act
      Section 313(c).

    A
      copy of
      each report at the time of its mailing to the Holders of Notes shall be mailed
      to the Issuer and filed with the SEC and each stock exchange on which the Notes
      are listed in accordance with Trust Indenture Act Section 313(d). The Issuer
      shall promptly notify the Trustee when the Notes are listed on any stock
      exchange.

     

    
      	Section
              7.07  	
                
                Compensation and Indemnity.

            

    

     

    The
      Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall pay to the Trustee
      from
      time to time such compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services
      hereunder as the parties shall agree in writing from time to time. The Trustee’s
      compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of
      an
      express trust. The Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall
      reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements,
      advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation
      for
      its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation,
      disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel.

     

    The
      Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the Trustee
      for, and hold the Trustee harmless against, any and all loss, damage, claims,
      liability or expense (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by it in connection
      with the acceptance or administration of this trust and the performance of
      its
      duties hereunder (including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture
      against the Issuer or any of the Guarantors (including this Section 7.07) or
      defending itself against any claim whether asserted by any Holder, the Issuer
      or
      any Guarantor, or liability in connective with the acceptance, exercise or
      performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder). The Trustee shall notify
      the Issuer promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by
      the
      Trustee to so notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer of its obligations
      hereunder. The Issuer shall defend the claim and the Trustee may have separate
      counsel and the Issuer shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. The
      Issuer need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability
      or expense incurred by the Trustee through the Trustee’s own willful misconduct,
      negligence or bad faith.

     

    The
      obligations of the Issuer under this Section 7.07 shall survive the satisfaction
      and discharge of this Indenture or the earlier resignation or removal of the
      Trustee.

     

    Notwithstanding
      anything contrary in Section 4.12 hereto, to secure the payment obligations
      of
      the Issuer and the Guarantors in this Section 7.07, the Trustee shall have
      a
      Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the
      Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal and interest on particular
      Notes. Such Lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture
      or the earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee.

     

    When
      the
      Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified
      in Section 6.01(a)(6) or (7) hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation
      for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel)
      are
      intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy
      Law.

     

    The
      Trustee shall comply with the provisions of Trust Indenture Act Section
      313(b)(2) to the extent applicable.

    A
      resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee
      shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of
      appointment as provided in this Section 7.08. The Trustee may resign in writing
      at any time and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so

        the Issuer. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then
        outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and
        the
        Issuer in writing. The Issuer may remove the Trustee if:

    

     

    (a)  the
      Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof;

     

    (b)  the
      Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered
      with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law;

     

    (c)  a
      custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property;
      or

     

    (d)  the
      Trustee becomes incapable of acting.

     

    If
      the
      Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee
      for any reason, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. Within
      one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority
      in
      principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may appoint a successor Trustee
      to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Issuer.

     

    If
      a
      successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee
      resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee (at the Issuer’s expense), the
      Issuer or the Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the then
      outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
      appointment of a successor Trustee.

     

    If
      the
      Trustee, after written request by any Holder who has been a Holder for at least
      six months, fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof, such Holder may petition
      any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the
      appointment of a successor Trustee.

     

    A
      successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to
      the
      retiring Trustee and to the Issuer. Thereupon, the resignation or removal of
      the
      retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have
      all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The
      successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Holders. The retiring
      Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the
      successor Trustee; provided
      all sums
      owing to the Trustee hereunder have been paid and subject to the Lien provided
      for in Section 7.07 hereof. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant
      to this Section 7.08, the Issuer’s obligations under Section 7.07 hereof shall
      continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

    If
      the

      all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation, the successor
      corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee.

      thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power,
      that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities

                Defeasance.

            

    

     

    The
      Issuer may, at its option and at any time, elect to have either Section 8.02
      or
      8.03 hereof applied to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions
      set forth below in this Article 8.

     

    
      	Section
              8.02  	
                
                Legal Defeasance and
                Discharge.

            

    

     

    Upon
      the
      Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this
      Section 8.02, the Issuer and the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction
      of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be deemed to have been
      discharged from their obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes and
      Guarantees on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied
      (“Legal
      Defeasance”).
      For
      this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer 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 8.05 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture
      referred to in (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all its other
      obligations under such Notes and this Indenture including that of the Guarantors
      (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute
      proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions
      which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged
      hereunder:

     

    (a)  the
      rights of Holders of Notes issued under this Indenture to receive payments
      in
      respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes when
      such payments are due solely out of the trust created pursuant to this Indenture
      referred to in Section 8.04 hereof;

     

    (b)  the
      Issuer’s obligations with respect to Notes concerning issuing temporary notes,
      registration of such Notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and
      the
      maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for security payments
      held in trust;

     

    (c)  the
      rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee, and the Issuer’s
      obligations in connection therewith; and

     

    (d)  this
      Section 8.02.

     

    Subject
      to compliance with this Article 8, the Issuer may exercise its option under
      this
      Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section
      8.03
      hereof.

    Upon
      the
      Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this
      Section 8.03, the Issuer and the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction
      of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from their
      obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.07,
      4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.14, 4.15 and 4.16 hereof and clauses
      (4)
      and (5) of Section 5.01(a), Sections 5.01(c) and 5.01(d) hereof with respect
      to
      the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section
      8.04 hereof are satisfied (“Covenant
      Defeasance”),
      and
      the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any
      direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the
      consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall
      continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being
      understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting
      purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to
      the
      outstanding Notes, the Issuer may omit to comply with and shall have no
      liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any
      such
      covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere
      herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant
      to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to
      comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section
      6.01
      hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and
      such
      Notes shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Issuer’s exercise under
      Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03 hereof,
      subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof,
      Sections 6.01(3), 6.01(4), 6.01(5), 6.01(6) (solely with respect to Restricted
      Subsidiaries that are Significant Subsidiaries), 6.01(7) (solely with respect
      to
      Restricted Subsidiaries that are Significant Subsidiaries) and 6.01(8) hereof
      shall not constitute Events of Default.

                Defeasance.

            

    

     

    The
      following shall be the conditions to the application of either Section 8.02
      or
      8.03 hereof to the outstanding Notes:

     

    In
      order
      to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance with respect to
      the
      Notes:

     

              (1)  the
      Issuer must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit
      of
      the Holders of the Notes, cash in U.S. dollars, Government Securities, or a
      combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion
      of a
      nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, to pay the
      principal of, premium, if any, and interest due on the Notes issued under this
      Indenture on the stated maturity date or on the redemption date, as the case
      may
      be, of such principal, premium, if any, or interest on such Notes and the Issuer
      must specify whether such Notes are being defeased to maturity or to a
      particular redemption date;

          

                
(2)  in
      the
      case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an
      Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that, subject
      to customary assumptions and exclusions,

     

    (a)    the
      Issuer has received from, or there has been published by, the United States
      Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or

     

    (b)    since
      the
      original issuance of the Notes, there has been a change in the applicable U.S.
      federal income tax law,

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -96-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

              in
        either case to the
        effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that,
        subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, the 

              Holders
        of the Notes
        will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes,
        as
        applicable, 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;

    

     

            (3)  in
      the
      case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee
      an
      Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that, subject
      to customary assumptions and exclusions, the Holders of the Notes 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;

     

            (4)  no
      Default (other than that resulting from borrowing funds to be applied to make
      such deposit and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other
      Indebtedness and, in each case, the granting of Liens in connection therewith)
      shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit;

     

            (5)  such
      Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or
      violation of, or constitute a default under the Senior Credit Facilities, the
      Senior Indenture, the Senior Notes or any other material agreement or instrument
      (other than this Indenture) to which the Issuer or any Guarantor is a party
      or
      by which the Issuer or any Guarantor is bound (other than that resulting from
      borrowing funds to be applied to make the deposit required to effect such Legal
      Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance and any similar and simultaneous deposit
      relating to other Indebtedness and, in each case, the granting of Liens in
      connection therewith);

     

            (6)  the
      Issuer 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 Section 547 of Title 11 of the United States Code;

     

            (7)  the
      Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that
      the deposit was not made by the Issuer with the intent of defeating, hindering,
      delaying or defrauding any creditors of the Issuer or any Guarantor or others;
      and

     

            (8)  the
      Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an
      Opinion of Counsel (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.

      collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”)
      pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof in respect of the outstanding Notes shall be
      held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions
      of

      Paying Agent (including the Issuer or a Guarantor acting as Paying Agent) as
      the

due
        and
        to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium and Special Interest,
        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 held in
        trust
        are not subject to Article 12 or Article 13 hereof. 

    

     

    The
      Issuer shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge
      imposed on or assessed against the cash or Government Securities deposited

      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 8 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver
      or
      pay to the Issuer from time to time upon the request of the Issuer any money
      or
      Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 hereof which,
      in
      the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants
      expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which
      may
      be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(a) hereof), are in excess of
      the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an
      equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

      deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Issuer,
      in

      any,
      or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such
      principal, and premium and Special Interest, if any, or interest has become
      due
      and payable shall be paid to the Issuer on its request or (if then held by
      the
      Issuer) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall
      thereafter look only to the Issuer for payment thereof, and all liability of
      the
      Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability
      of the Issuer as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease.

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

      PIK Notes.

     

    Upon
      the
      request of the Issuer accompanied by a resolution of its board of directors
      authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and
      upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02 hereof,
      the Trustee shall join with the Issuer and the Guarantors in the execution
      of
      any amended or supplemental indenture authorized or permitted by the terms
      of
      this Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations
      that may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to enter
      into such amended or supplemental indenture that affects its own rights, duties
      or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
      no Opinion of Counsel shall be required in connection with the addition of

              9.02  	
                
                With Consent of Holders of
                Notes.

            

    

     

    Except
      as
      provided below in this Section 9.02, the Issuer and the Trustee may amend or
      supplement this Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees with the consent of
      the
      Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Notes (including
      Additional Notes, if any) then outstanding voting as a single class (including,
      without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or
      exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.04
      and 6.07 hereof, any existing Default or Event of Default (other than a Default
      or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium and Special
      Interest, if any, or interest on the Notes, except a payment default resulting
      from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with any provision
      of this Indenture, the Guarantees or the Notes may be waived with the consent
      of
      the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes
      (including Additional Notes, if any) voting as a single class (including
      consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for,
      or
      purchase of, the Notes). Section 2.08 hereof and Section 2.09 hereof shall
      determine which Notes are considered to be “outstanding” for the purposes of
      this Section 9.02.

     

    Upon
      the
      request of the Issuer accompanied by a resolution of its board of directors
      authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and
      upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of
      the
      consent of the Holders of Notes as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee
      of
      the documents described in Sections 7.02 and 14.04 hereof, the Trustee
      shall join with the Issuer in the execution of such amended or supplemental
      indenture unless such amended or supplemental indenture directly affects the
      Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in
      which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to,
      enter into such amended or supplemental indenture.

     

    It
      shall
      not be necessary for the consent of the Holders of Notes under this
      Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or
      waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance
      thereof.

     

    After
      an
      amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective,
      the
      Issuer shall mail to the Holders of Notes affected thereby a notice briefly
      describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Issuer to
      mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair
      or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental indenture or
      waiver.

     

    Without
      the consent of each affected Holder of Notes, an amendment or waiver under
      this
      Section 9.02 may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting
      Holder):

     

    (1)  reduce
      the principal amount of such Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment,
      supplement or waiver;

     

    (2)  reduce
      the principal of or change the fixed final maturity of any such Note or alter
      or
      waive the provisions with respect to the redemption of such Notes (other than
      provisions relating to Section 3.09, Section 4.10 and Section 4.14 hereof to
      the
      extent that any such amendment or waiver does not have the effect of reducing
      the principal of or changing the fixed final maturity of any such Note or
      altering or waiving the provisions with respect to the redemption of such
      Notes);

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -100-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    (3)  reduce
      the rate of or change the time for payment of interest on any Note;

     

    (4)  waive
      a
      Default in the payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the
      Notes, except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of at
      least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes and a waiver of
      the
      payment default that resulted from such acceleration, or in respect of a
      covenant or provision contained in this Indenture or any Guarantee which cannot
      be amended or modified without the consent of all Holders;

     

    (5)  make
      any
      Note payable in money other than that stated therein;

     

    (6)  make
      any
      change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults
      or the rights of Holders to receive payments of principal of or premium, if
      any,
      or interest on the Notes;

     

    (7)  make
      any
      change in these amendment and waiver provisions;

     

    (8)  impair
      the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of, or interest on
      such
      Holder’s Notes on or after the due dates therefor or to institute suit for the
      enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s
      Notes;

     

    (9)  make
      any
      change to or modify the ranking of the Notes that would adversely affect the
      Holders; or

     

    (10)  except
      as
      expressly permitted by this Indenture, modify the Guarantees of any Significant
      Subsidiary in any manner adverse to the Holders of the Notes.

     

    Notwithstanding
      the foregoing, any amendment to, or waiver of, the provisions of Article 12
      or
      Article 13 hereof that adversely affects the rights of the Holders will require
      the consent of the Holders of at least 75% in aggregate principal amount of
      the
      Senior Subordinated Notes then outstanding.

              9.03  	
                
                Compliance with Trust Indenture
                Act.

            

    

     

    Every
      amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes shall be set forth in
      an
      amended or supplemental indenture that complies with the Trust Indenture Act
      as
      then in effect.

     

    
      	Section
              9.04  	
                
                Revocation and Effect of
                Consents.

            

    

     

    Until
      an
      amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder
      of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and every subsequent
      Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the
      consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any
      Note. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a Note may
      revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of
      revocation before the date the waiver, supplement or amendment becomes
      effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance
      with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder.

     

    The
      Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose
      of
      determining the Holders entitled to consent to any amendment, supplement, or
      waiver. If a record date is fixed, then, notwithstanding the preceding
      paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or their duly
      designated proxies), and only such Persons, shall be entitled to consent to
      such
      amendment, supplement, or waiver or to revoke any consent previously given,
      whether or not such Persons continue to

be
        Holders after such record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective
        for
        more than 120 days after such record date unless the consent of the requisite
        number of Holders has been obtained.

    

     

    
      	Section
              9.05  	
               
                Notation on or Exchange of
                Notes.

            

    

     

    The
      Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or
      waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Issuer in exchange for all
      Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order,
      authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or
      waiver.

     

    Failure
      to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not affect the
      validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

     

    
      	Section
              9.06  	
                
                Trustee to Sign Amendments,
                etc.

            

    

     

    The
      Trustee shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant
      to
      this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the
      rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. The Issuer may not
      sign an amendment, supplement or waiver until the board of directors approves
      it. In executing any amendment, supplement or waiver, the Trustee shall be
      entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) shall be fully
      protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section
      14.04 hereof, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that
      the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or
      permitted by this Indenture and that such amendment, supplement or waiver is
      the
      legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer and any Guarantors party
      thereto, enforceable against them in accordance with its terms, subject to
      customary exceptions, and complies with the provisions hereof (including Section
      9.03). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Opinion of Counsel will be required
      for
      the Trustee to execute any amendment or supplement adding a new Guarantor under
      this Indenture.

    Neither
      the Issuer nor any Affiliate of the Issuer shall, directly or indirectly, pay
      or
      cause to be paid any consideration, whether by way of interest, fee or
      otherwise, to any Holder for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or
      amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture or the Notes
      unless such consideration is offered to all Holders and is paid to all Holders
      that so consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in
      solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or

    Subject
      to this Article 10, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, fully
      and unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated and
      delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns,
      irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes
      or
      the obligations of the Issuer hereunder or thereunder, that: (a) the principal
      of, interest, premium and Special Interest, if any, on the Notes shall be
      promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption
      or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the
      Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Issuer to the Holders
      or the Trustee hereunder or

thereunder
        shall be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms
        hereof and thereof; and (b) in case of any extension of time of payment or
        renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same shall be
        promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms
        of the
        extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise.
        Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so
        guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors shall be jointly and severally
        obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is
        a
        guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

    

     

    The
      Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder shall be unconditional,
      irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or
      this
      Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent
      by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof,
      the
      recovery of any judgment against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same
      or
      any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable
      discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence,
      presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event
      of
      insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first
      against the Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants
      that this Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance
      of
      the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture.

     

    Each
      Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including
      reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Trustee or any Holder in enforcing
      any rights under this Section 10.01.

     

    If
      any
      Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the
      Issuer, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar
      official acting in relation to either the Issuer or the Guarantors, any amount
      paid either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Guarantee, to the extent
      theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and
      effect.

     

    Each
      Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation
      in
      relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until
      payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further
      agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and
      the
      Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed
      hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 hereof for the purposes
      of
      this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition
      preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby,
      and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations
      as
      provided in Article 6 hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable)
      shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of
      this
      Guarantee. The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any
      non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair
      the
      rights of the Holders under the Guarantees.

     

    Each
      Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective
      should any petition be filed by or against the Issuer for liquidation,
      reorganization, should the Issuer 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 Issuer’s assets, and shall, to the fullest extent
      permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may
      be,
      if at any time payment and performance of the Notes are, pursuant to applicable
      law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned
      by any obligee on the Notes or Guarantees, whether as a “voidable preference,”
“fraudulent transfer” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance
      had not been made. In the event that any payment or any part thereof, is
      rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Notes shall, to the fullest extent
      permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid
      and
      not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

      validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not
      in
      any way be affected or impaired thereby.

     

    Pursuant
      to the provisions of Article 13 hereof, the Guarantee issued by any Guarantor
      shall be a general unsecured senior subordinated obligation of such Guarantor
      and shall be subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future Senior
      Indebtedness of such Guarantor, if any.

     

    Each
      payment to be made by a Guarantor in respect of its Guarantee shall be made
      without set-off, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any kind or
      nature.

    Each
      Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that
      it
      is the intention of all such parties that the Guarantee of such Guarantor not
      constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law,
      the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act
      or
      any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Guarantee.
      To
      effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors
      hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of each Guarantor shall be limited
      to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and
      all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant
      under such laws and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to
      receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other
      Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this
      Article 10, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee
      not
      constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under applicable
      law. Each Guarantor that makes a payment under its Guarantee shall be entitled
      upon payment in full of all guaranteed obligations under this Indenture to
      a
      contribution from each other Guarantor in an amount equal to such other
      Guarantor’s pro
      rata
      portion
      of such payment based on the respective net assets of all the Guarantors at
      the
      time of such payment determined in accordance with GAAP.

    To
      evidence its Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 hereof, each Guarantor hereby
      agrees that this Indenture shall be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by
      its
      President, one of its Vice Presidents or one of its Assistant Vice
      Presidents.

     

    Each
      Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 hereof
      shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the
      endorsement of any notation of such Guarantee on the Notes.

     

    If
      an
      Officer whose signature is on this Indenture no longer holds that office at
      the
      time the Trustee authenticates the Note, the Guarantee shall be valid
      nevertheless.

     

    The
      delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder,
      shall constitute due delivery of the Guarantee set forth in this Indenture
      on
      behalf of the Guarantors.

     

    If
      required by Section 4.15 hereof, the Issuer shall cause any newly created or
      acquired Restricted Subsidiary to comply with the provisions of Section 4.15
      hereof and this Article 10, to the extent applicable.

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

      with respect to this Indenture or the Notes shall have occurred and be

      addition, the Issuer must deliver an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of

      its
      own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto,
      of the principal (and premium and Special Interest, if any) and interest for

    The

      that the payment of all Obligations owing in respect of the Notes is
      subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided

      Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer and that the subordination is for the benefit

      in right
      of payment with all existing and future Senior Subordinated Indebtedness of
      the
      Issuer, and will be senior in right of payment to all existing and future

      entitled to receive any payment;

     

    (ii)  until
      the
      Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer is paid in full in cash, any payment or
      distribution to which Holders would be entitled but for the subordination

        occurs (a “Payment
        Default”):

    

     

    (i)  any
      Obligation on any Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer is not paid
      in
      full in cash when due (after giving effect to any applicable grace period);
      or

     

    (ii)  any
      other
      default on Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer occurs and the maturity
      of such Designated Senior Indebtedness is accelerated in accordance with its
      terms; 

     

    unless,
      in either case, the Payment Default has been cured or waived and any such
      acceleration has been rescinded or such Designated Senior Indebtedness has
      been
      discharged or paid in full in cash; provided,

      that
      the Issuer shall be entitled to pay the Notes without regard to the foregoing
      if
      the Issuer and the Trustee receive written notice approving such payment from
      the Representatives of all Designated Senior Indebtedness with respect to which
      the Payment Default has occurred and is continuing.

     

    During
      the continuance of any default other than a Payment Default (a “Non-Payment
      Default”)
      with
      respect to any Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer pursuant to which
      the maturity thereof may be accelerated without further notice (except such
      notice as may be required to effect such acceleration) or the expiration of
      any
      applicable grace periods, the Issuer shall not pay the Notes (except in the
      form
      of Permitted Junior Securities) for a period (a “Payment
      Blockage Period”)
      commencing upon the receipt by the Trustee (with a copy to the Issuer) of
      written notice (a “Blockage
      Notice”)
      of
      such Non-Payment Default from the Representative of such Designated Senior
      Indebtedness specifying an election to effect a Payment Blockage Period and
      ending 179 days thereafter. The Payment Blockage Period shall end earlier if
      such Payment Blockage Period is terminated (i) by written notice to the Trustee
      and the Issuer from the Person or Persons who gave such Blockage Notice; (ii)
      because the default giving rise to such Blockage Notice is cured, waived or
      otherwise no longer continuing; or (iii) because such Designated Senior
      Indebtedness has been discharged or repaid in full in cash.

     

    Notwithstanding
      the provisions described in the immediately preceding paragraph (but subject
      to
      the provisions contained in the first paragraph of this Section 12.03 and
      Section 12.02 hereof), unless the holders of such Designated Senior Indebtedness
      or the Representative of such Designated Senior Indebtedness shall have
      accelerated the maturity of such Designated Senior Indebtedness, the Issuer
      shall be entitled to resume paying the Notes after the end of such Payment
      Blockage Period. The Notes shall not be subject to more than one Payment
      Blockage Period in any consecutive 360-day period irrespective of the number
      of
      defaults with respect to Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer during
      such period; provided
      that if
      any Blockage Notice is delivered to the Trustee by or on behalf of the holders
      of Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer (other than the holders of
      Indebtedness under the Senior Credit Facilities), a Representative of holders
      of
      Indebtedness under the Senior Credit Facilities may give another Blockage Notice
      within such period. However, in no event shall the total number of days during
      which any Payment Blockage Period or Periods on the Notes is in effect exceed
      179 days in the aggregate during any consecutive 360-day period, and there
      must
      be at least 181 days during any consecutive 360-day period during which no
      Payment Blockage Period is in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however,
      no
      Default that existed or was continuing on the date of delivery of any Blockage
      Notice to the Trustee shall be, or be made, the basis for a subsequent Blockage
      Notice unless such default shall have been waived for a period of not less
      than
      90 consecutive days (it being acknowledged that any subsequent action, or any
      breach of any financial covenants during the period after the date of delivery
      of such initial Blockage Notice, that, in either case, would give rise to a
      Non-Payment Default pursuant to

    After
      all
      Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer is paid in full and until the Notes are paid
      in full, Holders shall be subrogated to the rights of holders of such Senior
      Indebtedness to receive distributions applicable to such Senior Indebtedness.
      A
      distribution made under this Article 12 to holders of such Senior Indebtedness
      which otherwise would have been made to Holders is not, as between the Issuer
      and Holders, a payment by the Issuer on such Senior Indebtedness.

    This
      Article 12 defines the relative rights of Holders and holders of Senior
      Indebtedness of the Issuer. Nothing in this Indenture shall:

     

    (i)    impair,
      as between the Issuer and Holders, the obligation of the Issuer, which is
      absolute and unconditional, to pay principal of and interest on the Notes in
      accordance with their terms;

     

    (ii)    prevent
      the Trustee or any Holder from exercising its available remedies upon a Default,
      subject to the rights of holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer to receive
      payments or distributions otherwise payable to Holders and such other rights
      of
      such holders of Senior Indebtedness as set forth herein; or

     

    (iii)    affect
      the relative rights of Holders and creditors of the Issuer other than their
      rights in relation to holders of Senior Indebtedness.

              12.08

                May Not Be Impaired by Issuer.

            

    

     

    No
      right
      of any holder of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer to enforce the subordination
      of the Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes shall be impaired by any act or
      failure to act by the Issuer or by its failure to comply with this
      Indenture.

              Rights
                of Trustee and Paying Agent.

            

    

     

    Notwithstanding
      Section 12.03 hereof, the Trustee or any Paying Agent may continue to make
      payments on the Notes and shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence
      of facts that would prohibit the making of any payments unless, not less than
      five Business Days prior to the date of such payment, a Responsible Officer
      of
      the Trustee receives notice satisfactory to it that payments may not be made
      under this Article 12. The Issuer, the Registrar, the Paying Agent, a
      Representative or a holder of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer shall be
      entitled to give the notice; provided,
      however,
      that,
      if an issue of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer has a Representative, only
      the
      Representative shall be entitled to give the notice.

     

    The
      Trustee in its individual or any other capacity shall be entitled to hold Senior
      Indebtedness of the Issuer with the same rights it would have if it were not
      Trustee. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall be entitled to do the same
      with like rights. The Trustee shall be entitled to all the rights set forth
      in
      this Article 12 with respect to any Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer which
      may
      at any time be held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of such Senior
      Indebtedness; and nothing in Article 7 shall deprive the Trustee of any of
      its
      rights as such holder. Nothing in this Article 12 shall apply to claims of,
      or
      payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 7.07 hereof or any other
      Section of this Indenture.

    Whenever
      any Person is to make a distribution or give a notice to holders of Senior
      Indebtedness of the Issuer, such Person shall be entitled to make such
      distribution or give such notice to their Representative (if any). Any such
      Representative shall provide its contact information to the
      Trustee.

    The
      failure to make a payment pursuant to the Notes by reason of any provision
      in
      this Article 12 shall not be construed as preventing the occurrence of a
      Default. Nothing in this Article 12 shall have any effect on the right of the
      Holders or the Trustee to accelerate the maturity of the Notes.

      anything contained herein to the contrary, payments from money or the proceeds
      of Government Securities deposited in trust or with the Trustee, as applicable,
      for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes pursuant to Article
      8
      or Article 11 hereof shall not be subordinated to the prior payment of any
      Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer or subject to the restrictions set forth
      in
      this Article 12, and none of the Holders shall be obligated to pay over any
      such
      amount to the Issuer or any holder of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer or
      any
      other creditor of the Issuer, provided
      that the
      subordination provisions of this Article 12 or Article 13 hereof were not
      violated at the time the applicable amounts were deposited in trust pursuant
      to
      Article 8 or Article 11 hereof, as the case may be.

    Upon
      any
      payment or distribution pursuant to this Article 12, the Trustee and the Holders
      shall be entitled to rely (a) upon any order or decree of a court of competent
      jurisdiction in which any proceedings of the nature referred to in Section

        trustee or agent or other Person making such payment or distribution to the
        Trustee or to the Holders or (c) upon the Representatives of Senior Indebtedness
        of the Issuer for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to
        participate in such payment or distribution, the holders of such Senior
        Indebtedness and other Indebtedness of the Issuer, the amount thereof or
        payable
        thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other
        facts
        pertinent thereto or to this Article 12. In the event that the Trustee
        determines, in good faith, that evidence is required with respect to the
        right
        of any Person as a holder of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer to participate
        in
        any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article 12, the Trustee shall
        be
        entitled to request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable
        satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of such Senior Indebtedness
        held by
        such Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in
        such
        payment or distribution and other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person
        under this Article 12, and, if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee
        shall
        be entitled to defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination
        as to the right of such Person to receive such payment. The provisions of
        Sections 7.01 and 7.02 hereof shall be applicable to all actions or omissions
        of
        actions by the Trustee pursuant to this Article 12.

    Each
      Holder by its acceptance of a Note agrees to be bound by this Article 12 and
      authorizes and expressly directs the Trustee, on its behalf, to take such action
      as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination between
      the
      Holders and the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer as provided in
      this
      Article 12 and appoints the Trustee as attorney-in-fact for any and all such

    The
      Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior
      Indebtedness of the Issuer and shall not be liable to any such holders if it
      shall mistakenly pay over or distribute to Holders or the Issuer or any other
      Person, money or assets to which any holders of Senior Indebtedness of the
      Issuer shall be entitled by virtue of this Article 12 or otherwise.

                Provisions.

            

    

     

    Each
      Holder by accepting a Note acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing
      subordination provisions are, and are intended to be, an inducement and a
      consideration to each holder of any Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer, whether
      such Senior Indebtedness was created or acquired before or after the issuance
      of
      the Notes, to acquire and continue to hold, or to continue to hold, such Senior
      Indebtedness and such holder of such Senior Indebtedness shall be deemed
      conclusively to have relied on such subordination provisions in acquiring and
      continuing to hold, or in continuing to hold, such Senior
      Indebtedness.

     

    Without
      in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph, the holders
      of
      Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer may, at any time and from time to time,
      without the consent of or notice to the Trustee or the Holders, without
      incurring responsibility to the Trustee or the Holders and without impairing
      or
      releasing the subordination provided in this Article 12 or the obligations
      hereunder of the Holders to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness of the
      Issuer, do any one or more of the following:

     

    (i)    change
      the manner, place or terms of payment or extend the time of payment of, or
      renew
      or alter, Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer, or otherwise amend or supplement
      in

        agreement under which Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer is 

          outstanding;
        

    

     

    (ii)    sell,

              Agreement
                To Subordinate.

            

    

     

    Each
      Guarantor agrees, and each Holder by accepting a Note agrees, that the
      obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee are subordinated in right
      of
      payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in this Article 13, to the
      prior payment in cash in full of all existing and future Senior Indebtedness
      of
      such Guarantor and that the subordination is for the benefit of and enforceable
      by the holders of such Senior Indebtedness. A Guarantor’s obligations under its
      Guarantee shall in all respects rank pari
      passu
      in right
      of payment with all existing and future Senior Subordinated Indebtedness of
      such
      Guarantor, and will be senior in right of payment to all existing and future
      Subordinated Indebtedness of such Guarantor; and only Indebtedness of such
      Guarantor that is Senior Indebtedness shall rank senior to the obligations
      of
      such Guarantor under its Guarantee in accordance with the provisions set forth
      herein. All provisions of this Article 13 shall be subject to Section
      13.12.

      any
      payment or distribution of the assets of a Guarantor to creditors upon a total
      or partial liquidation or dissolution of such Guarantor or in a reorganization
      of, or similar proceeding relating to, such Guarantor or its
      property:

     

    (i)    the
      holders of Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor shall be entitled to receive
      payment in full in cash of such Senior Indebtedness before Holders shall be
      entitled to receive any payment;

     

    (ii)    until
      the
      Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor is paid in full in cash, any payment
      or
      distribution to which Holders would be entitled but for the subordination
      provisions of this Indenture shall be made to holders of such Senior
      Indebtedness as their interests may appear, except that Holders may receive
      Permitted Junior Securities; and

     

    (iii)    if
      a
      distribution is made to Holders that, due to the subordination provisions of
      this Indenture, should not have been made to them, such Holders will be required
      to hold it in trust for the holders of Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor
      and
      pay it over to them as their interests may appear.

              Default

                Guarantor.

            

    

     

    A
      Guarantor shall not make any payment pursuant to its Guarantee (or pay any
      other
      Obligations relating to its Guarantee, including Special Interest, fees, costs,
      expenses, indemnities and rescission or damage claims) and may not purchase,
      redeem or otherwise retire any Notes (collectively, “pay
      its Guarantee”)
      (except in the form of Permitted Junior Securities) if either of the following
      occurs (a “Guarantor
      Payment Default”):

     

    (i)    any
      Obligation on any Designated Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor is not paid
      in full in cash when due (after giving effect to any applicable grace period);
      or

     

    (ii)    any
      other
      default on Designated Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor occurs and the
      maturity of such Designated Senior Indebtedness is accelerated in accordance
      with its terms;

     

    unless,
      in either case, the Guarantor Payment Default has been cured or waived and
      any
      such acceleration has been rescinded or such Designated Senior Indebtedness
      has
      been discharged or paid in full in cash; provided,
      however,
      that
      such Guarantor shall be entitled to pay its Guarantee without regard to the
      foregoing if such Guarantor and the Trustee receive written notice approving
      such payment from the Representatives of all Designated Senior Indebtedness
      with
      respect to which the Guarantor Payment Default has occurred and is
      continuing.

     

    During
      the continuance of any default (other than a Guarantor Payment Default) (a
      “Guarantor
      Non-Payment Default”)
      with
      respect to any Designated Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor pursuant to which
      the maturity thereof may be accelerated without further notice (except such
      notice as may be required to effect such acceleration) or the expiration of
      any
      applicable grace periods, such Guarantor shall not pay its Guarantee (except
      in
      the form of Permitted Junior Securities) for a period (a “Guarantee
      Payment Blockage Period”)
      commencing upon the receipt by the Trustee (with a copy to such Guarantor and
      the Issuer) of written notice (a “Guarantee
      Blockage Notice”)
      of
      such Guarantor Non-Payment Default from the Representative of such Designated
      Senior Indebtedness specifying an election to effect a Guarantee Payment
      Blockage Period and ending 179 days thereafter. The Guarantee Payment Blockage
      Period shall end earlier if such Guarantee Payment Blockage Period is terminated
      (i) by written notice to the Trustee, the relevant Guarantor and the Issuer
      from
      the Person or Persons who gave such Guarantee Blockage Notice; (ii) because
      the
      default giving rise to such Guarantee Blockage Notice is cured, waived or
      otherwise no longer continuing; or (iii) because such Designated Senior
      Indebtedness has been discharged or repaid in full in cash.

     

    Notwithstanding
      the provisions described in the immediately preceding paragraph (but subject
      to
      the provisions contained in the first sentence of this Section 13.03 and Section
      13.02 hereof), unless the holders of such Designated Senior Indebtedness or
      the
      Representative of such Designated Senior Indebtedness shall have accelerated
      the
      maturity of such Designated Senior Indebtedness, the relevant Guarantor shall
      be
      entitled to resume paying its Guarantee after the end of such Guarantee Payment
      Blockage Period. Each Guarantee shall not be subject to more than one Guarantee
      Payment Blockage Period in any consecutive 360-day period irrespective of the
      number of defaults with respect to Designated Senior Indebtedness of the
      relevant Guarantor during such period; provided
      that if
      any Guarantee Blockage Notice is delivered to the Trustee by or on behalf of
      the
      holders of Designated Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor (other than the
      holders of Indebtedness under the Senior Credit Facilities), a Representative
      of
      holders of Indebtedness under the Senior Credit Facilities may give another
      Guarantee Blockage Notice within such period. However, in no event shall the
      total number of days during which any Guarantee Payment Blockage Period or
      Periods on a Guarantee is in effect exceed 

     

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         
179
        days
        in the aggregate during any consecutive 360-day period, and there must be
        at
        least 181 days during any consecutive 360-day period during which no Guarantee
        Payment Blockage Period is in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however,
        no
        default that existed or was continuing on the date of delivery of any Guarantee
        Blockage Notice to the Trustee shall be, or be made, the basis for a subsequent
        Guarantee Blockage Notice unless such default shall have been waived for
        a
        period of not less than 90 consecutive days (it being acknowledged that any
        subsequent action, or any breach of any financial covenants during the period
        after the date of delivery of such initial Guarantee Blockage Notice, that,
        in
        either case, would give rise to a Guarantor Non-Payment Default pursuant
        to any
        provisions under which a Guarantor Non-Payment Default previously existed
        or was
        continuing shall constitute a new Guarantor Non-Payment Default for this
        purpose).

      payment of the Notes is accelerated because of an Event of Default, the Issuer
      or such Guarantor shall, or shall cause the Trustee to, promptly notify the
      holders of the Designated Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor or the
      Representative of such Designated Senior Indebtedness of the acceleration;
      provided
      that any
      failure to give such notice shall have no effect whatsoever on the provisions
      of
      this Article 13.

     

    
      	Section
              13.05  	
              When
                Distribution Must Be Paid Over.

            

    

     

    If
      a
      distribution is made to Holders that, due to the subordination provisions of
      this Article 13, should not have been made to them, such Holders are required
      to
      hold it in trust for the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the relevant
      Guarantor and pay it over to them as their interests may appear.

     

    
      	Section
              13.06  	
              Subrogation.

            

    

     

    After
      all
      Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor is paid in full and until the Notes are
      paid
      in full, Holders shall be subrogated to the rights of holders of such Senior
      Indebtedness to receive distributions applicable to such Senior Indebtedness.
      A
      distribution made under this Article 13 to holders of such Senior Indebtedness
      which otherwise would have been made to Holders is not, as between the relevant
      Guarantor and Holders, a payment by such Guarantor on such Senior
      Indebtedness.

     

    
      	Section
              13.07  	
              Relative
                Rights.

            

    

     

    This
      Article 13 defines the relative rights of Holders and holders of Senior
      Indebtedness of a Guarantor. Nothing in this Indenture shall:

     

                   (i)  impair,
      as between such Guarantor and Holders, the obligation of such Guarantor, which
      is absolute and unconditional, to make 

              payments
      under its Guarantee in
      accordance with its terms;

     

                    (ii)  prevent
      the Trustee or any Holder from exercising its available remedies upon a default
      by such Guarantor under its obligations with 

              respect
      to its Guarantee, subject
      to the rights of holders of Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor to receive
      payments or distributions otherwise 

              payable
      to Holders and such other
      rights of such holders of Senior Indebtedness as set forth herein;
      or

     

                    (iii)  affect
      the relative rights of Holders and creditors of such Guarantor other than their
      rights in relation to holders of Senior 

              Indebtedness.

              Subordination
                May Not Be Impaired by a
                Guarantor.

            

    

     

    No
      right
      of any holder of Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor to enforce the subordination
      of the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee shall be impaired
      by
      any act or failure to act by such Guarantor or by its failure to comply with
      this Indenture.

     

    
      	Section
              13.09  	
              Rights
                of Trustee and Paying Agent.

            

    

     

    Notwithstanding
      Section 13.03 hereof, the Trustee or any Paying Agent may continue to make
      payments on the Notes and shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence
      of facts that would prohibit the making of any payments unless, not less than
      five Business Days prior to the date of such payment, a Responsible Officer
      of
      the Trustee receives notice satisfactory to him that payments may not be made
      under this Article 13. Each Guarantor, the Registrar, the Paying Agent, a
      Representative or a holder of Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor shall be
      entitled to give the notice; provided,
      however,
      that,
      if an issue of Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor has a Representative,
      only
      the Representative shall be entitled to give the notice.

     

    The
      Trustee in its individual or any other capacity shall be entitled to hold Senior
      Indebtedness of any Guarantor with the same rights it would have if it were
      not
      Trustee. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall be entitled to do the same
      with like rights. The Trustee shall be entitled to all the rights set forth
      in
      this Article 13 with respect to any Senior Indebtedness of any Guarantor which
      may at any time be held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of such
      Senior Indebtedness; and nothing in Article 7 shall deprive the Trustee of
      any
      of its rights as such holder. Nothing in this Article 13 shall apply to claims
      of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 7.07 hereof or
      any
      other Section of this Indenture.

              Distribution
                or Notice to Representative.

            

    

     

    Whenever
      any Person is to make a distribution or give a notice to holders of Senior
      Indebtedness of a Guarantor, such Person shall be entitled to make such
      distribution or give such notice given to their Representative (if any). Any
      such Representative shall provide its contact information to the
      Trustee.

                Payment.

            

    

     

    The
      failure of a Guarantor to make a payment pursuant its Guarantee by reason of
      any
      provision in this Article 13 shall not be construed as preventing the occurrence
      of a default by such Guarantor under its Guarantee. Nothing in this Article
      13
      shall have any effect on the right of the Holders or the Trustee to make a
      demand for payment on a Guarantor pursuant to Article 10 hereof.

              13.12

    Notwithstanding
      anything contained herein to the contrary, payments from money or the proceeds
      of Government Securities deposited in trust or with the Trustee, as applicable,
      for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes pursuant to Article
      8
      or Article 11 hereof shall not be subordinated to the prior payment of any
      Senior Indebtedness of any Guarantor or subject to the restrictions set forth
      in
      this Article 13, and none of the Holders shall be obligated to pay over any
      such
      amount to such Guarantor or any holder of Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor
      or any other creditor of such Guarantor, provided
      that the
      subordination provisions of Article 12 hereof or this Article 13 were not

        at the time the applicable amounts were deposited in trust pursuant to Article

              Trustee
                Entitled To Rely.

            

    

     

    Upon
      any
      payment or distribution pursuant to this Article 13, the Trustee and the Holders
      shall be entitled to rely (a) upon any order or decree of a court of competent
      jurisdiction in which any proceedings of the nature referred to in Section
      13.02
      hereof are pending, (b) upon a certificate of the liquidating trustee or agent
      or other Person making such payment or distribution to the Trustee or to the
      Holders or (c) upon the Representatives of Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor
      for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such
      payment or distribution, the holders of such Senior Indebtedness and other
      Indebtedness of such Guarantor, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the
      amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent
      thereto or to this Article 13. In the event that the Trustee determines, in
      good
      faith, that evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person as
      a
      holder of Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor to participate in any payment
      or
      distribution pursuant to this Article 13, the Trustee shall be entitled to
      request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the
      Trustee as to the amount of such Senior Indebtedness held by such Person, the
      extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or
      distribution and other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this
      Article 13, and, if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee shall be
      entitled to defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination
      as
      to the right of such Person to receive such payment. The provisions of Sections
      7.01 and 7.02 hereof shall be applicable to all actions or omissions of actions
      by the Trustee pursuant to this Article 13.

     

    
      	Section
              13.14  	
              Trustee
                To Effectuate Subordination.

            

    

     

    Each
      Holder by its acceptance of a Note agrees to be bound by this Article 13 and
      authorizes and expressly directs the Trustee, on its behalf, to take such action
      as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination between
      the
      Holders and the holders of Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor as provided in
      this Article 13 and appoints the Trustee as attorney-in-fact for any and all
      such purposes.

                Guarantors.

            

    

     

    The
      Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior
      Indebtedness of any Guarantor and shall not be liable to any such holders if
      it
      shall mistakenly pay over or distribute to Holders or such Guarantor or any
      other Person, money or assets to which any holders of Senior Indebtedness of
      such Guarantor shall be entitled by virtue of this Article 13 or
      otherwise.

     

    
      	Section
              13.16

                Provisions.

            

    

     

    Each
      Holder by accepting a Note acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing
      subordination provisions are, and are intended to be, an inducement and a
      consideration to each holder of any Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor, whether
      such Senior Indebtedness was created or acquired before or after the issuance
      of
      the Notes, to acquire and continue to hold, or to continue to hold, such Senior
      Indebtedness and such holder of such Senior Indebtedness shall be deemed
      conclusively to have relied on such subordination provisions in acquiring and
      continuing to hold, or in continuing to hold, such Senior
      Indebtedness.

    Without
      in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph, the holders
      of
      Senior Indebtedness of any Guarantor may, at any time and from time to time,
      without the consent of or notice to the Trustee or the Holders, without
      incurring responsibility to the Trustee or the Holders and without impairing
      or
      releasing the subordination provided in this Article 13 or the obligations
      hereunder of the Holders to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness of such
      Guarantor, do any one or more of the following: 

     

    (i)    change
      the manner, place or terms of payment or extend the time of payment of, or
      renew
      or alter, Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor, or otherwise amend or
      supplement in any manner Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor, or any
      instrument evidencing the same or any agreement under which Senior Indebtedness
      of such Guarantor is outstanding; 

     

    (ii)    sell,
      exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or
      otherwise securing Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor; 

     

    (iii)    release
      any Person liable in any manner for the payment or collection of Senior
      Indebtedness of such Guarantor; and 

     

    (iv)    exercise
      or refrain from exercising any rights against such Guarantor and any other
      Person.

    1.    INTEREST.
      Buck Acquisition Corp., a Tennessee corporation, promises to pay interest on
      the
      principal amount of this Note as follows: Cash Interest on the Notes will accrue
      at a rate of 11.875% per annum and be payable in cash. PIK Interest on the
      Notes
      will accrue at a rate of 12.625% per annum and be payable (x) with respect
      to Notes represented by one or more global notes registered in the name of,
      or
      held by, The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”)
      or its
      nominee on the relevant record date, by increasing the principal amount of
      the
      outstanding global Note by an amount equal to the amount of PIK Interest for
      the
      applicable interest period (rounded up to the nearest $1,000) and (y) with
      respect to Notes represented by certificated notes, by issuing PIK Notes in
      certificated form in an aggregate principal amount equal to the amount of PIK
      Interest for the applicable period (rounded up to the nearest whole dollar),
      and
      the Trustee will, at the request of the Issuer, authenticate and deliver such
      PIK Notes in certificated form for original issuance to the Holders on the
      relevant record date, as shown by the records of the register of Holders. In
      the
      event that the Issuer elects to pay Partial PIK Interest for any interest
      period, each Holder will be entitled to receive Cash Interest in respect of
      50%
      of the principal amount of the Notes held by such Holder on the relevant record
      date and PIK Interest in respect of 50% of the principal amount of the Notes
      held by such Holder on the relevant record date. Following an increase in the
      principal amount of the outstanding global Notes as a result of a PIK Payment,
      the global Notes will bear interest on such increased principal amount from
      and
      after the date of such PIK Payment. Any PIK Notes issued in certificated form
      will be dated as of the applicable interest payment date and will bear interest
      from and after such date. All Notes issued pursuant to a PIK Payment will mature
      on July 15, 2017 and will be governed by, and subject to the terms, provisions
      and conditions of, the Indenture and shall have the same rights and benefits
      as
      the Notes issued on the Issue Date. Any certificated PIK Notes will be issued
      with the description “PIK” on the face of such PIK Note.

     

    The
      Issuer will pay interest and Special Interest, if any, semi-annually in arrears
      on January 15 and July 15 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business
      Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an “Interest
      Payment Date”).
      Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest
      has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance;
      provided
      that the
      first Interest Payment Date shall be January 15, 2008. The Issuer will pay
      interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any
      Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time
      on
      demand at the interest rate on the Notes; it shall pay interest (including
      post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue
      installments of interest and Special Interest, if any, (without regard to any
      applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at the interest rate
      on
      the Notes. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised
      of
      twelve 30-day months.

     

    2.    METHOD
      OF
      PAYMENT. For any interest payment period after the initial interest payment
      period and prior to July 15, 2011, the Issuer may, at its option, elect to
      pay
      interest on the Notes:

     

    
      	·  	
              entirely
                in cash (“Cash
                Interest”);

            

    

     

    
      
        
          A-1-5

        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    
      	·  	
              entirely
                by increasing the principal amount of the outstanding Notes or by
                issuing
                PIK Notes (“PIK
                Interest”);
                or

            

    

     

    
      	·  	
              on
                50% of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes in cash and
                on 50% of
                the principal amount by increasing the principal amount of the outstanding
                Notes or by issuing PIK Notes (“Partial
                PIK Interest”).

            

    

     

    The
      Issuer must elect the form of interest payment with respect to each interest
      period by delivering a notice to the Trustee at least 30 days prior to the
      beginning of each interest period. The Trustee shall promptly deliver a
      corresponding notice to the Holders. In the absence of such an election for
      any
      interest period, interest on the Notes shall be payable according to the
      election for the previous interest period. Interest for the first interest
      period commencing on the Issue Date shall be payable entirely in cash. After
      July 15, 2011, the Issuer will make all interest payments on the Notes entirely
      in cash. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the payment of accrued
      interest in connection with any redemption of Notes as described under Sections
      3.07, 4.10 and 4.14 of the Indenture shall be made solely in cash.

     

    The
      Issuer will pay Cash Interest on the Notes and Special Interest, if any, to
      the
      Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on January
      1 and July 1 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, next preceding
      the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record
      date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section
      2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Payment of interest
      and Special Interest, if any, may be made by check mailed to the Holders at
      their addresses set forth in the register of Holders, provided
      that
      payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with
      respect to principal of and interest, premium and Special Interest, if any,
      on,
      all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided
      wire transfer instructions to the Issuer or the Paying Agent. Such payment
      shall
      be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time
      of
      payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

     

    3.    PAYING
      AGENT AND REGISTRAR. Initially, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, the
      Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuer
      may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to the Holders. The
      Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

     

    4.    INDENTURE.
      The Issuer issued the Notes under an Indenture, dated as of July 6, 2007 (the
      “Indenture”),
      among
      Buck Acquisition Corp., Dollar General Corporation, the Guarantors named therein
      and the Trustee. This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of notes of the
      Issuer designated as its 11.875% / 12.625% Senior Subordinated Toggle Notes
      due
      2017. The Issuer shall be entitled to issue Additional Notes pursuant to
      Sections 2.01 and 4.09 of the Indenture. 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 of 1939, as amended (the “Trust
      Indenture Act”).
      The
      Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture
      and such Act for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of
      this
      Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions
      of
      the Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

     

    5.    OPTIONAL
      REDEMPTION.

     

    (a)   Except
      as
      set forth below, the Issuer will not be entitled to redeem Notes at its option

          A-1-6

        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    (b)    At
      any
      time prior to July 15, 2012, the Issuer 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 the registered address of each Holder of Notes or otherwise in
      accordance with the procedures of DTC, at a redemption price equal to 100%
      of
      the principal amount of the Notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium as of,
      and accrued and unpaid interest and Special Interest, if any, to the date of
      redemption (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.

     

    (c)    On
      and
      after July 15, 2012, the Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part,
      upon
      not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice mailed by first-class mail
      to the registered address of each Holder of Notes or otherwise in accordance
      with the procedures of DTC, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages
      of principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed) 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 Notes of record on the
      relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment
      date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on January 15 of
      each
      of the years indicated below:

     

    
      	
              Year

            	
              Percentage

            
	
              2012..........................................................................................................................

                and
                thereafter....................................................................................................

            	
              101.979%

                and
                thereafter....................................................................................................

            	
              100.000%

            

    

    

    (d)    In
      addition, until July 15, 2010, the Issuer may, at its option, on one or more
      occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes at a
      redemption price equal to 111.875% 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 Notes of record
      on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest
      Payment Date, with the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings;
provided
      that at
      least 50% of the sum of the original aggregate principal amount of Notes issued
      under the Indenture and the original principal amount of any Additional Notes
      that are Notes issued under the Indenture after the Issue Date 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.

     

    (e)    Any
      notice of any redemption may be given prior to the redemption thereof, and
      any
      such redemption or notice may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or
      more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of an
      Equity Offering or other corporate transaction.

     

    (f)    If
      the
      Issuer redeems less than all of the outstanding Notes, the Trustee shall select
      the Notes to be redeemed in the manner described under Section 3.02 of the
      Indenture.

     

    (g)    Any
      redemption pursuant to this paragraph 5 shall be made pursuant to the
      provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06 of the Indenture.

     

    6.    MANDATORY
      REDEMPTION. Except as set forth below, the Issuer shall not be required to
      make
      mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the
      Notes.

     

    If
      the
      Notes would otherwise constitute “applicable high yield discount obligations”
within the meaning of Section 163(i)(1) of the Code, at the end of each
      accrual period ending after the fifth 

     

    
      
        
          A-1-7

        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        
anniversary
        of the Notes' issuance (each, an “AHYDO
        redemption date”),
        the
        Issuer will be required to redeem for cash a portion of each Note then
        outstanding equal to the “Mandatory Principal Redemption Amount” (such
        redemption, a “Mandatory
        Principal Redemption”).
        The
        redemption price for the portion of each Note redeemed pursuant to a Mandatory
        Principal Redemption will be 100% of the principal amount of such portion
        plus
        any accrued interest thereon on the date of redemption. The “Mandatory
        Principal Redemption Amount”
means,
        as of each AHYDO redemption date, the excess, if any, of (a) the aggregate
        amount of accrued and unpaid interest and all accrued and unpaid “original issue
        discount” (as defined in Section 1273(a)(1) of the Code) with respect to
        the Notes, over (b) an amount equal to the product of (i) the “issue
        price” (as defined in Sections 1273(b) and 1274(a) of the Code) of the Notes
        multiplied by (ii) the “yield to maturity” (as defined in the Treasury
        Regulation Section 1.1272-1(b)(1)(i)) of the Notes. No partial redemption
        or repurchase of the senior subordinated toggle notes prior to any AHYDO
        redemption date pursuant to any other provision of this Indenture will alter
        the
        Issuer's obligation to make any Mandatory Principal Redemption with respect
        to
        any Notes that remain outstanding on such AHYDO redemption
        date.

    

     

    7.    NOTICE
      OF
      REDEMPTION. Subject to Section 3.03 of the Indenture, notice of redemption
      will
      be mailed by first-class mail at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before
      the redemption date (except that redemption notices may be mailed more than
      60
      days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with
      Article 8 of the Indenture) to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at
      its
      registered address. Notes in denominations larger than $2,000 may be redeemed
      in
      part but only in whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, unless all of
      the
      Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed. On and after the redemption date
      interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for
      redemption.

     

    8.    OFFERS
      TO
      REPURCHASE.

     

    (a)    Upon
      the
      occurrence of a Change of Control, the Issuer shall make an offer (a
“Change
      of Control Offer”)
      to
      each Holder to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral
      multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of each Holder’s Notes at a purchase price
      equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid
      interest and Special Interest thereon, if any, to the date of purchase (the
      “Change
      of Control Payment”).
      The
      Change of Control Offer shall be made in accordance with Section 4.14 of the
      Indenture.

     

    (b)    If
      the
      Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries consummates an Asset Sale, within
      10 Business Days of each date that the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds
      exceeds $75.0 million, the Issuer shall make an offer to all Holders of the
      Notes and, if required or permitted by the terms of any Senior Indebtedness,
      to
      the holders of such Senior Indebtedness (an “Asset
      Sale Offer”),
      to
      purchase the maximum aggregate principal amount of the Notes and such Senior
      Indebtedness that is a minimum of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000
      in
      excess thereof 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, in accordance with the procedures set forth in the
      Indenture. To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes and such Senior
      Indebtedness tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess
      Proceeds, the Issuer may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for general corporate
      purposes, subject to other covenants contained in the Indenture. If the
      aggregate principal amount of Notes or Senior Indebtedness surrendered by such
      holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select
      the Notes and such Senior Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro
      rata
      basis
      based on the accreted value or principal amount of the Notes or such Senior
      Indebtedness tendered. Upon completion of any such Asset Sale Offer, the amount
      of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
          A-1-8

        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    (c)    The
      Issuer may, at its option, make an Asset Sale Offer using proceeds from any
      Asset Sale at any time after consummation of such Asset Sale; provided that
      such
      Asset Sale Offer shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than
      $75.0 million. Upon consummation of such Asset Sale Offer, any Net Proceeds
      not required to be used to purchase Notes shall not be deemed Excess
      Proceeds.

     

    9.    DENOMINATIONS,
      TRANSFER, EXCHANGE. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in
      denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.
      The
      transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided
      in
      the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other
      things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the
      Issuer may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or
      permitted by the Indenture. The Issuer need not exchange or register the
      transfer of any Notes or portion of Notes selected for redemption, except for
      the unredeemed portion of any Notes being redeemed in part. Also, the Issuer
      need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15
      days
      before a selection of Notes to be redeemed.

     

    10.    PERSONS
      DEEMED OWNERS. The registered Holder of Notes may be treated as its owner for
      all purposes.

     

    11.    AMENDMENT,
      SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER. The Indenture, the Guarantees or the Notes may be amended
      or supplemented as provided in the Indenture.

     

    12.    DEFAULTS
      AND REMEDIES. The Events of Default relating to the Notes are defined in Section
      6.01 of the Indenture. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the
      Trustee or the Holders of at least 30% in principal amount of the then
      outstanding Notes may declare the principal, premium, if any, interest and
      any
      other monetary obligations on all the then outstanding Notes to be due and
      payable immediately. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event
      of
      Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all outstanding
      Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice.
      Holders may not enforce the Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees except as
      provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority
      in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the
      Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from
      Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default (except a Default relating
      to the payment of principal, premium, if any, Special Interest, if any, or
      interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. The
      Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then
      outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of
      the
      Notes waive any existing Default or and its consequences under the Indenture
      except a continuing Default in payment of the principal of, premium, if any,
      Special Interest, if any, or interest on, any of the Notes held by a
      non-consenting Holder. The Issuer and each Guarantor (to the extent that such
      Guarantor is so required under the Trust Indenture Act) is required to deliver
      to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture,
      and
      the Issuer is required within five (5) Business Days after becoming aware of
      any
      Default, to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default and
      what
      action the Issuer proposes to take with respect thereto.

     

    13.    AUTHENTICATION.
      This Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid
      or obligatory for any purpose until authenticated by the manual signature of
      the
      Trustee.

     

    14.    ADDITIONAL
      RIGHTS OF HOLDERS OF RESTRICTED GLOBAL NOTES AND RESTRICTED DEFINITIVE NOTES.
      In
      addition to the rights provided to Holders of Notes under the Indenture, Holders
      of Restricted Global Notes and Restricted Definitive Notes shall have all the
      rights 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
          A-1-9

        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        
set
        forth
        in the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of July 6, 2007, among Buck
        Acquisition Corp., Dollar General Corporation, the Guarantors named therein
        and
        the other parties named on the signature pages thereof (the “Registration
        Rights Agreement”),
        including the right to receive Special Interest (as defined in the Registration
        Rights Agreement).

    

     

    15.    GOVERNING
      LAW. THIS INDENTURE, THE NOTES AND ANY GUARANTEE WILL BE GOVERNED BY AND
      CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

     

    16.    CUSIP/ISIN
      NUMBERS. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform
      Security Identification Procedures, the Issuer has caused CUSIP/ISIN numbers
      to

    WHEREAS,
      each of Dollar General Corporation, Buck Acquisition Corp. and the Guarantors

    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 Issuer’s Obligations under the Notes and the Indenture on the terms
      and conditions set forth herein and under the Indenture (the “Guarantee”);
      and

     

    WHEREAS,
      pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Indenture, the Trustee is authorized to execute
      and deliver this Supplemental Indenture.

     

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

     

    (1)    Capitalized
      Terms.
      Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings
      assigned to them in the Indenture.

     

    (2)    Agreement
      to Guarantee.
      The
      Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby agrees as follows:

     

    (a)    Along
      with all Guarantors named in the Indenture, to jointly and severally
      unconditionally guarantee to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered
      by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective
      of the validity and enforceability of the Indenture, the Notes or the
      obligations of the Issuer hereunder or thereunder, that:

     

        (i)    the
      principal of and interest, premium and Special Interest, if any, on the Notes
      will be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration,
      redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest
      on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Issuer to
      the
      Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder will be promptly paid in full
      or
      performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and

     

    
      
        D-1

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

        (ii)    in
      case
      of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such
      other
      obligations, that same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed
      in
      accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated
      maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. Failing payment when due of any amount
      so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the
      Guarantors and the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall be jointly and severally
      obligated to pay the same immediately. This is a guarantee of payment and not
      a
      guarantee of collection.

     

    (b)    The
      obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity,
      regularity or enforceability of the Notes or the Indenture, the absence of
      any
      action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes
      with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment
      against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance
      which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense
      of a
      guarantor.

     

    (c)    The
      following is hereby waived: diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing
      of
      claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer,
      any
      right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer, protest, notice and
      all
      demands whatsoever.

     

    (d)    This
      Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the
      obligations contained in the Notes, the Indenture and this Supplemental
      Indenture, and the Guaranteeing Subsidiary accepts all obligations of a
      Guarantor under the Indenture.

     

    (e)    If
      any
      Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the
      Issuer, the Guarantors (including the Guaranteeing Subsidiary), or any
      custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation
      to
      either the Issuer or the Guarantors, any amount paid either to the Trustee
      or
      such Holder, this Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be
      reinstated in full force and effect.

     

    (f)    The
      Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in
      relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until
      payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby.

     

    (g)    As
      between the Guaranteeing Subsidiary, on the one hand, and the Holders and the
      Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed
      hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 of the Indenture for the
      purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other
      prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations
      guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration
      of
      such obligations as provided in Article 6 of the Indenture, such obligations
      (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by
      the
      Guaranteeing Subsidiary for the purpose of this Guarantee.

     

    (h)    The
      Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall have the right to seek contribution from any
      non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair
      the
      rights of the Holders under this Guarantee.

     

    (i)    Pursuant
      to Section 10.02 of the Indenture, after giving effect to all other contingent
      and fixed liabilities that are relevant under any applicable Bankruptcy or
      fraudulent

conveyance
        laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive
        contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor
        in
        respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under Article 10 of the
        Indenture, this new Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum amount permissible
        such that the obligations of such Guaranteeing Subsidiary under this Guarantee
        will not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

    

     

    (j)    This
      Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective
      should any petition be filed by or against the Issuer for liquidation,
      reorganization, should the Issuer 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 Issuer’s assets, and shall, to the fullest extent
      permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may
      be,
      if at any time payment and performance of the Notes are, pursuant to applicable
      law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned
      by any obligee on the Notes and Guarantee, 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 Note 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.

     

    (k)    In
      case
      any provision of this 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.

     

    (l)    This
      Guarantee shall be a general senior obligation of such Guaranteeing Subsidiary,
      ranking equally in right of payment with all existing and future senior
      Indebtedness of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary but, to the extent of the value
      of
      the collateral, will be effectively senior to all of the Guaranteeing
      Subsidiary’s unsecured senior Indebtedness. The Guarantees will be senior in
      right of payment to all existing and future Subordinated Indebtedness of each
      Guarantor. The Notes will be structurally subordinated to Indebtedness and
      other
      liabilities of Subsidiaries of the Issuer that do not Guarantee the Notes,
      if
      any.

     

    (m)    Each
      payment to be made by the Guaranteeing Subsidiary in respect of this Guarantee
      shall be made without set-off, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any
      kind
      or nature.

     

    (3)    Execution
      and Delivery.
      The
      Guaranteeing Subsidiary agrees that the Guarantee shall remain in full force
      and
      effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of any notation of such
      Guarantee on the Notes.

     

    (4)    Merger,
      Consolidation or Sale of All or Substantially All Assets.

     

    (a)    Except
      as
      otherwise provided in Section 5.01(c) of the Indenture, the Guaranteeing
      Subsidiary may not consolidate or merge with or into or wind up into (whether
      or
      not the Issuer or Guaranteeing Subsidiary is the surviving corporation), or
      sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or
      substantially all of its properties or assets, in one or more related
      transactions, to any Person unless:

     

    
      
        D-3

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    (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, partnership, limited partnership, limited liability
      corporation or trust organized or existing under the laws of the jurisdiction
      of
      organization of such Guarantor, as the case may be, or 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
      Person”);

    2.  Registration
      Under the Securities Act.

     

    (a)
        Except
      as
      set forth in Section 2(b) below, the Issuer agrees to file under the
      Securities Act, one or more registration statements relating to an offer to
      exchange (such registration statements, together, the “Exchange
      Registration Statement,”
      and such
      offer, the “Exchange
      Offer”)
      any and
      all of the Securities for a like aggregate principal amount of debt securities
      issued by the Issuer and guaranteed by the Guarantors, which debt securities
      and
      guarantees are
      substantially identical to the Securities and
      the
      related Guarantees, respectively (and are entitled to the benefits of a trust
      indenture which is substantially identical to the applicable Indenture or is
      the
      applicable Indenture and which has been qualified under the Trust Indenture
      Act), except that they have been registered pursuant to an effective
      registration statement under the Securities Act and do not contain provisions
      for Special Interest contemplated in Section 2(d) below (such new debt
      securities hereinafter called “Exchange
      Securities”).
      The
      Issuer agrees to use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Exchange
      Registration Statement to become effective under 

     

    
      
         

      

      
        5

        
          

        

      

      
         
the
        Securities Act no later than 270 days after the Closing Date. The Exchange
        Offer
        will be registered under the Securities Act on the appropriate form and will
        comply with all applicable tender offer rules and regulations under the Exchange
        Act. Unless the Exchange Offer would not be permitted by applicable law or
        Commission policy, the Issuer further agrees to use all commercially reasonable
        efforts to (i) commence the Exchange Offer promptly following the Effective
        Time of such Exchange Registration Statement, (ii) hold the Exchange Offer
        open for at least 20 Business Days in accordance with Regulation 14E promulgated
        by the Commission under the Exchange Act, or longer, if required by the federal
        securities laws and (iii) exchange Exchange Securities for all Registrable
        Securities that have been properly tendered and not withdrawn promptly following
        the expiration of the Exchange Offer. The Exchange Offer will be deemed to
        have
        been “completed” only if: (i) the debt securities and
        related guarantees received by holders other than Restricted Holders in the
        Exchange Offer for Registrable Securities are, upon receipt, transferable
        by
        each such holder without restriction under the Securities Act and the Exchange
        Act and without material restrictions under the blue sky or securities laws
        of a
        substantial majority of the States of the United States of America and (ii)
        upon
        the Issuer having exchanged, pursuant to the Exchange Offer, Exchange Securities
        for all Registrable Securities that have been properly tendered and not
        withdrawn before the expiration of the Exchange Offer, which shall be on
        a date
        that is at least 20 Business Days following the commencement of the Exchange
        Offer. The Issuer agrees (x) to include in the Exchange Registration Statement
        a
        prospectus for use in any resales by any holder of Exchange Securities that
        is a
        broker-dealer and (y) to keep such Exchange Registration Statement effective
        for
        a period (the “Resale
        Period”)
        beginning when Exchange Securities are first issued in the Exchange Offer
        and
        ending upon the earlier of the expiration of the 90th
        day
        after the Exchange Offer has been completed or such time as such broker-dealers
        no longer own any Registrable Securities. With respect to such Exchange
        Registration Statement, such holders shall have the benefit of the rights
        of
        indemnification and contribution set forth in Subsections 6(a), (f) and
        (g).

    

     

    (b)
        If
      (i) on
      or prior to the time the Exchange Offer is completed, existing law or Commission
      interpretations are changed such that the debt securities or the related
      guarantees received by holders other than Restricted Holders in the Exchange
      Offer for Registrable Securities are not or would not be, upon receipt,
      transferable by each such holder without restriction under the Securities Act,
      (ii) the Effective Time of the Exchange Registration Statement is not within
      270
      days following the Closing Date and the Exchange Offer has not been completed
      within 30 Business Days of such Effective Time or (iii) any holder of
      Registrable Securities notifies the Issuer prior to the 20th
      Business
      Day following the completion of the Exchange Offer that: (A) it is
      prohibited by law or Commission policy from participating in the Exchange Offer,
      (B) it may not resell the Exchange Securities to the public without
      delivering a prospectus and the prospectus supplement contained in the Exchange
      Registration Statement is not appropriate or available for such resales or
      (C)
      it is a broker-dealer and owns Securities acquired directly from the Issuer
      or
      an affiliate of the Issuer, then the Issuer and the Guarantors shall, in lieu
      of
      (or, in the case of clause (iii), in addition to) conducting the Exchange Offer
      contemplated by Section 2(a), file under the Securities Act no
      later
      than 30 days after the time such obligation to file arises (but no earlier
      than
      270 days after the Closing Date),
      one or
      more “shelf” registration statements providing for the registration of, and the
      sale on a continuous or delayed basis by the holders of, all of the Registrable
      Securities, pursuant to Rule 415 or any similar rule that may be adopted by
      the Commission (such filing, the “Shelf
      Registration”
      and such
      registration statement, the “Shelf
      Registration Statement”).
      The
      Issuer agrees to use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Shelf
      Registration Statement to become or be declared effective no later 

     

    
      
         

      

      
        6

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

       

      than
        90
        days after such Shelf Registration Statement filing obligation arises (but
        no
        earlier than 270 days after the Closing Date); provided,
        that if
        at any time the Issuer is or becomes a “well-known seasoned issuer” (as defined
        in Rule 405) and is eligible to file an “automatic shelf registration
        statement” (as defined in Rule 405), then the Issuer and the Guarantors
        shall file the Exchange Registration Statement in the form of an automatic
        shelf
        registration statement as provided in Rule 405. The Issuer agrees to use
        all commercially reasonable efforts to keep such Shelf Registration Statement
        continuously effective for a period ending on the earlier of the second
        anniversary of the Effective Time or such time as there are no longer any
        Registrable Securities outstanding. No holder shall be entitled to be named
        as a
        selling securityholder in the Shelf Registration Statement or to use the
        prospectus forming a part thereof for resales of Registrable Securities unless
        such holder is an Electing Holder. The Issuer agrees, after the Effective
        Time
        of the Shelf Registration Statement and promptly upon the request of any
        holder
        of Registrable Securities that is not then an Electing Holder, to use all
        commercially reasonable efforts to enable such holder to use the prospectus
        forming a part thereof for resales of Registrable Securities, including,
        without
        limitation, any action necessary to identify such holder as a selling
        securityholder in the Shelf Registration Statement (whether by post-effective
        amendment thereto or by filing a prospectus pursuant to Rules 430B and 424(b)
        under the Securities Act identifying such holder), provided,
        however,
        that
        nothing in this clause (y) shall (A) relieve any such holder of the obligation
        to return a completed and signed Notice and Questionnaire to the Issuer in
        accordance with Section 3(d)(iii) or (B) require the Issuer or the
        Guarantors to file more than one post-effective amendment to the Shelf
        Registration Statement in any 45-day period. Notwithstanding anything to
        the
        contrary in this Section 2(b), upon notice to the Electing Holders, the
        Issuer may suspend the use or the effectiveness of such Shelf Registration
        Statement, or extend the time period in which it is required to file the
        Shelf
        Registration Statement, for up to 60 days in the aggregate in any 12-month
        period (a “Suspension
        Period”)
        if the
        Board of Directors of the Issuer determines that there is a valid business
        purpose for suspension of the Shelf Registration Statement; provided
        that the
        Issuer shall promptly notify the Electing Holders when the Shelf Registration
        Statement may once again be used or is effective.

    

     

    (c)
        For
      the
      sole benefit of Goldman, Sachs & Co. or any of its affiliates (as defined
      under the rules and regulations of the Commission), so long as (x) any of the
      Registrable Securities are outstanding and (y) it would be necessary under
      applicable laws, rules and regulations, in the reasonable opinion of Goldman,
      Sachs & Co., for Goldman, Sachs & Co. or any of its affiliates to
      deliver a prospectus in connection with market-making activities with respect
      to
      the Registrable Securities or Exchange Securities and Goldman, Sachs & Co.
      or such affiliate proposes to make a market in the Registrable Securities or
      Exchange Securities as part of its business in the ordinary course (the
“Market-Making Conditions”), the following provisions shall apply for the sole
      benefit of Goldman, Sachs & Co. (it being understood that only a person for
      whom the Market-Making Conditions apply at the applicable time shall be entitled
      to the use of the Market Making Shelf Registration Statement and related
      provisions of this Agreement at any time), the Issuer shall use all commercially
      reasonable efforts to file under the Securities Act, a “shelf” registration
      statement (which may be the Exchange Registration Statement or the Shelf
      Registration Statement if permitted by the rules and regulations of the
      Commission) pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act or any similar rule
      that may be adopted by the Commission providing for the registration of, and
      the
      sale on a continuous or delayed basis in secondary transactions by Goldman,
      Sachs & Co. of, Securities (in the event of a Shelf Registration) or
      Exchange Securities (in the event of an Exchange Offer) (such filing, the
“Market
      Making Shelf Registration”,
      and
      such registration statement, the “Market
      Making Shelf 

     

    
      
         

      

      
        7

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

       

      Registration
        Statement”).
        The
        Issuer agrees to use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Market
        Making Shelf Registration Statement to become or be declared effective on
        or
        prior to (i) the date the Exchange Offer is completed pursuant to Section
        2(a)
        above or (ii) the date the Shelf Registration becomes or is declared effective
        pursuant to Section 2(b) above, and to keep such Market Making Shelf
        Registration Statement continuously effective for so long as Goldman, Sachs
        & Co. may be required to deliver a prospectus in connection with
        transactions in the Securities or the Exchange Securities, as the case may
        be.
        In the event that Goldman, Sachs & Co. holds Securities at the time an
        Exchange Offer is to be conducted under Section 2(a) above, the Issuer agrees
        that the Market Making Shelf Registration shall provide for the resale by
        Goldman, Sachs & Co. of such Securities and shall use its commercially
        reasonable efforts to keep the Market Making Shelf Registration Statement
        continuously effective until such time as Goldman, Sachs & Co. determines in
        its reasonable judgment that it is no longer required to deliver a prospectus
        in
        connection with the sale of such Securities.

    

     

    Notwithstanding
      anything to the contrary in this Section 2(c), upon at least 10 Business Days
      prior written notice to Goldman, Sachs & Co., the Issuer may elect to cause
      the Market Making Registration Statement to provide for the registration of,
      and
      the sale on a continuous or delayed basis in secondary transactions by any
      Affiliate Investor of Securities (in the event of a shelf registration) or
      Exchange Securities (in the event of an Exchange Offer) regardless of whether
      such Affiliate Investor otherwise would qualify as an Electing Holder eligible
      to participate in a Shelf Registration Statement in accordance with Section
      2(b)
      hereof; provided
      however,
      if
      Goldman, Sachs & Co. requests in writing at any time that the Issuer exclude
      any or all Affiliate Investors from the Market Making Registration Statement,
      then the Issuer shall either omit such Affiliate Investors from inclusion in
      the
      Market Making Registration Statement or promptly amend the Market Making
      Registration Statement to exclude them from the Market Making Registration
      Statement. The inclusion of any Affiliate Investor in the Market Making
      Registration Statement shall not affect the rights of Goldman, Sachs & Co.
      to make any determinations otherwise provided exclusively to Goldman, Sachs
      & Co. in this Agreement.

     

    Notwithstanding
      the foregoing, the Issuer may suspend the offering and sale under the Market
      Making Shelf Registration Statement for a Suspension Period if the Board of
      Directors of the Issuer determines that such registration would require (i)
      disclosure of an event at such time as could reasonably be expected to have
      a
      material adverse effect on the business operations or prospects of the Issuer
      (ii) disclosure of material information relating to a corporate development
      or
      (iii) such Market-Making Registration Statement or amendment or supplement
      thereto contains an untrue statement of material fact or omits to state a
      material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of
      the
      circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;; provided
      that the
      Issuer shall promptly notify Goldman, Sachs & Co. when the Market Making
      Shelf Registration Statement may once again be used or is
      effective.

     

    (d)
        In
      the
      event that (i) the Issuer and the Guarantors have not filed the Exchange
      Registration Statement or the Shelf Registration Statement on or before the
      date
      on which such registration statement is required to be filed pursuant to
      Section 2(a) or Section 2(b), respectively, or (ii) such Exchange
      Registration Statement or Shelf Registration Statement has not become effective
      or been declared effective by the Commission on or before the date on which
      such
      registration statement is required to become or be declared effective pursuant
      to Section 2(a) or Section 2(b), respectively, or (iii) the Exchange
      Offer has not been completed within 60 Business Days after the Effective Time
      of

      Registration
        Statement relating to the Exchange Offer (if the Exchange Offer is then required
        to be made) or (iv) any Exchange Registration Statement or Shelf
        Registration Statement required by Section 2(a) or Section 2(b) is
        filed and declared effective but shall thereafter either be withdrawn by
        the
        Issuer or shall become subject to an effective stop order issued pursuant
        to
        Section 8(d) of the Securities Act suspending the effectiveness of such
        registration statement (except as specifically permitted herein) without
        being
        succeeded immediately by an additional registration statement filed and declared
        effective (each such event referred to in clauses (i) through (iv), a
“Registration
        Default”
        and each
        period during which a Registration Default has occurred and is continuing,
        a
“Registration
        Default Period”),
        then,
        as liquidated damages for such Registration Default, subject to the provisions
        of Section 9(b), special interest (“Special
        Interest”),
        in
        addition to the Base Interest, shall accrue at a per annum rate of 0.25%
        for the
        first 90 days of the Registration Default Period, at a per annum rate of
        0.50%
        for the second 90 days of the Registration Default Period, at a per annum
        rate
        of 0.75% for the third 90 days of the Registration Default Period and at
        a per
        annum rate of 1.0% thereafter for the remaining portion of the Registration
        Default Period. Special Interest shall accrue and be payable only with respect
        to a single Registration Default at any given time, notwithstanding the fact
        that multiple Registration Defaults may exist at such time. The accrual of
        Special Interest shall be the exclusive monetary remedy available to the
        holders
        of Registrable Securities for any Registration Default.

    

     

    (e)
        The
      Issuer shall take, and shall cause the Guarantors to take, all
      actions necessary or advisable to be taken by them to ensure that the
      transactions contemplated herein are effected as so contemplated, including
      all
      actions necessary or desirable to register the Guarantees under the registration
      statement contemplated in Section 2(a) or Section 2(b), as
      applicable.

     

    (f)
        Any
      reference herein to a registration statement as of any time shall be deemed
      to
      include any document incorporated, or deemed to be incorporated, therein by
      reference as of such time and any reference herein to any post-effective
      amendment to a registration statement as of any time shall be deemed to include
      any document incorporated, or deemed to be incorporated, therein by reference
      as
      of such time.

     

    3.  Registration
      Procedures.

     

    If
      the
      Issuer and the Guarantors file a registration statement pursuant to
      Section 2(a), Section 2(b) or Section 2(c), the following provisions
      shall apply:

     

    (a)  At
      or
      before the Effective Time of the Exchange Registration, the Shelf Registration
      or Market Making Registration whichever may be first, the Issuer shall qualify
      the Indentures under the Trust Indenture Act.

     

    (b)  In
      the
      event that such qualification would require the appointment of new trustees
      under the Indentures, the Issuer shall appoint new trustees thereunder pursuant
      to the applicable provisions of the Indentures.

     

    (c)  In
      connection with the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ obligations with respect to the
      registration of Exchange Securities as contemplated by Section 2(a) (the
“Exchange
      Registration”),
      if
      applicable, the Issuer and the Guarantors shall:

     

    (i)  prepare
      and file with the Commission an Exchange Registration Statement on any form
      which may be utilized by the Issuer and the Guarantors and which shall

     

    
      
         

      

      
        9

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

       

      permit

        disposition in such jurisdictions of such Registrable Securities, Securities
        or
        Exchange Securities, as applicable, and (D) obtain the consent or approval

        or
        holders to offer, or to consummate the disposition of, their Registrable
        Securities, Securities or Exchange Securities, as applicable; provided,
        however,
        that
        neither the
        Issuer nor the Guarantors shall be required for any such purpose to
        (1) qualify as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction wherein it would
        not otherwise be required to qualify but for the requirements of this

      Electing Holders or Goldman, Sachs & Co. to facilitate the timely
      preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities,
      Securities or Exchange Securities, as applicable, to be sold, which
      certificates, if so required by any securities exchange upon which any

    (xv)  notify
      in
      writing each holder of Registrable Securities and Goldman, Sachs & Co. of
      any proposal by the Issuer to amend or waive any provision of this Agreement
      pursuant to Section 9(h) and of any amendment or waiver effected pursuant
      thereto, each of which notices shall contain the text of the amendment or waiver
      proposed or effected, as the case may be;

     

    (xvi)  comply
      with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, and make generally

      of the Securities Act (including, at the option of the Issuer, Rule 158
      thereunder); provided,
      however,
      that
      this requirement shall be deemed satisfied by the Issuer’s compliance with
      Section 4.03 of the Indentures; and

     

    (xvii)  for
      so
      long as Goldman, Sachs & Co. may be required to deliver a prospectus in
      connection with the offer and sale of Securities or Exchange Securities in
      secondary transactions, to furnish to Goldman, Sachs & Co. copies of all
      reports or other communications (financial or other) furnished to stockholders
      of the Issuer, and deliver to Goldman, Sachs & Co. (i) as soon as they are
      available, copies of any reports and financial statements furnished to or filed

        16

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    quoted
      and (ii) such additional information concerning the business and financial
      condition of the Issuer and its subsidiaries as Goldman, Sachs & Co. may
      from time to time reasonably request.

     

    (e)  In
      the
      event that the Issuer would be required, pursuant to Section 3(d)(viii)(G),
      to notify the Electing Holders, Goldman, Sachs & Co. or Affiliate Investors,
      the Issuer shall promptly prepare and furnish to each of the Electing Holders,
      Goldman, Sachs & Co. and Affiliate Investors a reasonable number of copies
      of a prospectus supplemented or amended so that, as thereafter delivered to
      purchasers of Registrable Securities, Securities or Exchange Securities, as
      applicable, such prospectus shall conform in all material respects to the
      applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the Trust Indenture Act and
      shall not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
      material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
      therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing. Each
      Electing Holder, Goldman, Sachs & Co. and Affiliate Investor agrees that
      upon receipt of any notice from the Issuer pursuant to
      Section 3(d)(viii)(G), such Electing Holder, Goldman, Sachs & Co. and
      Affiliate Investor shall forthwith discontinue the disposition of Registrable
      Securities, Securities or Exchange Securities, as applicable, pursuant to the
      Secondary Offer Registration Statement applicable to such Registrable
      Securities, Securities or Exchange Securities, as applicable, until such
      Electing Holder, Goldman, Sachs & Co. or Affiliate Investor shall have
      received copies of such amended or supplemented prospectus, and if so directed
      by the Issuer, such Electing Holder, Goldman, Sachs & Co. or Affiliate
      Investor shall deliver to the Issuer (at the Issuer’s expense) all copies, other
      than permanent file copies, then in such Electing Holder’s, Goldman, Sachs &
Co.’s or Affiliate Investor’s possession of the prospectus covering such
      Registrable Securities, Securities or Exchange Securities, as applicable, at
      the
      time of receipt of such notice.

     

    (f)  In
      the
      event of a Shelf Registration, in addition to the information required to be
      provided by each Electing Holder in its Notice and Questionnaire as to which
      any
      Shelf Registration pursuant to Section 2(b) is being effected or to be provided
      by Goldman, Sachs & Co. and each Affiliate Investor in connection with the
      Market Making Shelf Registration pursuant to Section 2(c), the Issuer may
      require such Electing Holder, Goldman, Sachs & Co. or an Affiliate Investor,
      as applicable, to furnish to the Issuer such additional information regarding
      such Electing Holder, Goldman, Sachs & Co. or Affiliate Investor, and such
      Electing Holder’s, Goldman, Sachs & Co.’s or Affiliate Investor’s, intended
      method of distribution of Registrable Securities, Securities or Exchange
      Securities, as applicable, as may be required in order to comply with the
      Securities Act. Each such Electing Holder, Goldman, Sachs & Co. and
      Affiliate Investor agrees to notify the Issuer as promptly as practicable of
      any
      inaccuracy or change in information previously furnished by such Electing
      Holder, Goldman, Sachs & Co. or Affiliate Investor, to the Issuer or of the
      occurrence of any event in either case as a result of which any prospectus
      relating to such Shelf Registration or Market Making Shelf Registration, as
      applicable, contains or would contain an untrue statement of a material fact
      regarding such Electing Holder, Goldman, Sachs & Co. or Affiliate Investor,
      or such Electing Holder’s, Goldman, Sachs & Co.’s or Affiliate Investor’s
      intended method of disposition of such Registrable Securities or omits to state
      any material fact regarding such Electing Holder Goldman, Sachs & Co. or an
      Affiliate Investor, or such Electing Holder’s intended method of disposition of
      such Registrable Securities, Securities or Exchange Securities, as applicable,
      required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
      misleading in light of the circumstances then existing, and promptly to furnish
      to the Issuer any additional information required to correct and update any
      previously furnished information or required so that such prospectus shall
      not
      contain, 

     

    
      
         

      

      
        17

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

       

      with
        respect to such Electing Holder, Goldman, Sachs & Co. or Affiliate Investor,
        or the disposition of such Registrable Securities, Securities or Exchange
        Securities, as applicable, an untrue statement of a material fact or omit
        to
        state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
        the
        statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then
        existing.

    

     

    (g)  Until
      the
      expiration of two years after the Closing Date, the Issuer will not, and will
      not permit any of its “affiliates” (as defined in Rule 144) to, resell any
      of the Securities that have been reacquired by any of them except pursuant
      to an
      effective registration statement, or a valid exemption from the registration
      requirements, under the Securities Act.

     

    (h)  As
      a
      condition to its participation in the Exchange Offer, each holder of Registrable
      Securities shall furnish, upon the request of the Issuer, a written
      representation to the Issuer (which may be contained in the letter of
      transmittal or “agent’s message” transmitted via The Depository Trust Company’s
      Automated Tender Offer Procedures, in either case contemplated by the Exchange
      Registration Statement) to the effect that (A) it is not an “affiliate” of
      the Issuer, as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act, or if it is such
      an “affiliate”, it will comply with the registration and prospectus delivery
      requirements of the Securities Act to the extent applicable, (B) it is not
      engaged in and does not intend to engage in, and has no arrangement or
      understanding with any person to participate in, a distribution of the Exchange
      Securities to be issued in the Exchange Offer, (C) it is acquiring the
      Exchange Securities in its ordinary course of business, (D) if it is a
      broker-dealer that holds Securities that were acquired for its own account
      as a
      result of market-making activities or other trading activities (other than
      Securities acquired directly from the Issuer or any of its affiliates), it
      will
      deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act in
      connection with any resales of the Exchange Securities received by it in the
      Exchange Offer, (E) if it is a broker-dealer, that it did not purchase the
      Securities to be exchanged in the Exchange Offer from the Issuer or any of
      its
      affiliates, and (F) it is not acting on behalf of any person who could not
      truthfully and completely make the representations contained in the foregoing
      subclauses (A) through (E).

     

    (i)  Notwithstanding
      anything to the contrary contained herein, the Issuer may for valid business
      reasons, including without limitation, a potential acquisition, divestiture
      of
      assets or other material corporate transaction, issue a notice that a Market
      Making Registration statement is no longer effective or the prospectus included
      therein is no longer usable for offers and sales of Registrable Securities
      or
      Exchange Securities, as applicable, and may issue any notice suspending use
      of
      such Market-Making Registration Statement required under applicable securities
      laws to be issued for so long as valid business reasons exist and the Issuer
      shall not be obligated to amend or supplement such Market-Making Registration
      Statement or the prospectus included therein until it reasonably deems
      appropriate. Goldman, Sachs & Co. agrees that upon receipt of any notice
      from the Issuer pursuant to this Section 3(i), it will discontinue use of each
      Market Making Registration Statement until receipt of copies of the supplemented
      or amended prospectus relating thereto until advised in writing by the Issuer
      that the use of a Market-Making Registration Statement may be resumed.

     

    4.  Registration
      Expenses.

     

    The
      Issuer agrees to bear and to pay or cause to be paid promptly all expenses

      harmless each of the holders of any such series of Registrable Securities
      included in an Exchange Registration Statement, each of the Electing Holders
      of
      Registrable Securities included in a Shelf Registration Statement, Goldman,
      Sachs & Co. as holder of Securities or Exchange Securities included in a
      Market Making Shelf Registration Statement and each of the Affiliate Investors
      as holders of Securities or Exchange Securities included in a Market Making
      Shelf Registration Statement against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities,
      joint or several, to which such holder, Goldman, Sachs & Co., such Electing
      Holder or Affiliate Investor may become subject under the Securities Act or
      otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions
      in
      respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged
      untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Exchange Registration
      Statement or Secondary Offer Registration Statement, as the case may be, under
      which such series of Registrable Securities, Securities or Exchange Securities,
      as applicable, were registered under the Securities Act, or any preliminary,
      final or summary prospectus (including, without limitation, any “issuer free
      writing prospectus” as defined in Rule 433) contained therein or furnished
      by the Issuer to any such holder, Goldman, Sachs & Co., such Electing Holder
      or Affiliate Investor or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out
      of or
      are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material
      fact
      required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
      misleading, and will reimburse any such holder, Goldman, Sachs & Co., such
      Electing Holder and such Affiliate Investor for any legal or other expenses
      reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any
      such action or claim as such expenses are incurred; provided,
      however,
      that
      neither the 

     

    
      
         

      

      
        21

        
          

        

      

      
         
Issuer
        nor the Guarantors shall be liable to any such person in any such case to
        the
        extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is
        based
        upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
        omission made in such registration statement, or preliminary, final or summary
        prospectus (including, without limitation, any “issuer free writing prospectus”
as defined in Rule 433), or amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance
        upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Issuer by
        such
        person expressly for use therein, which information, with respect to information
        provided by Goldman, Sachs & Co. for inclusion in the prospectus forming a
        part of the Market Making Registration Statement the parties hereto agree
        will
        be limited to the statements concerning the market-making activities of Goldman,
        Sachs & Co. to be set forth on the cover page and in the “Plan of
        Distribution” section of the prospectus forming a part of the Market Making
        Shelf Registration Statement and in the analogous section of the Canadian
        wrapper, if any, of such prospectus.

    

     

    (b)  Indemnification
      by the Holders. Each
      holder of Securities, severally and not jointly, will (i) indemnify and
      hold harmless the Issuer, the Guarantors, and all other holders of Registrable
      Securities, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the
      Issuer, the Guarantors or such other holders of Registrable Securities may
      become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses,
      claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of
      or
      are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material
      fact contained in such registration statement, or any preliminary, final or
      summary prospectus (including, without limitation, any “issuer free writing
      prospectus” as defined in Rule 433) contained therein or furnished by the
      Issuer to any such Electing Holder, or any amendment or supplement thereto,
      or
      arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein
      a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
      statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to
      the
      extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission
      or
      alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written
      information furnished to the Issuer by such Electing Holder expressly for use
      therein, and (ii) reimburse the Issuer and the Guarantors for any legal or
      other expenses reasonably incurred by the Issuer and the Guarantors in
      connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such
      expenses are incurred; provided,
      however,
      that no
      such Electing Holder shall be required to undertake liability to any person
      under this Section 6(b) for any amounts in excess of the dollar amount of
      the proceeds to be received by such Electing Holder from the sale of such
      Electing Holder’s Registrable Securities pursuant to such
      registration.

     

    (c)  Indemnification
      by Goldman, Sachs & Co.
      The
      Issuer may require, as a condition to including any Securities or Exchange
      Securities in the Market Making Shelf Registration Statement filed pursuant
      to
      Section 2(c) hereof and to entering into any underwriting agreement with respect
      thereto, that the Issuer shall have received an undertaking reasonably
      satisfactory to it from each underwriter named in any such underwriting
      agreement, severally and not jointly, to, and Goldman, Sachs & Co. shall,
      and hereby agrees to, (i) indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer and the
      Guarantors against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the
      Issuer or the Guarantors may become subject, under the Securities Act or
      otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions
      in
      respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged
      untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Market Making Shelf
      Registration Statement, or any preliminary, final or summary prospectus
      contained therein or furnished by the Issuer to Goldman, Sachs & Co. or to
      any such underwriter, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out
      of or
      are based upon the omission or 

     

    
      
         

      

      
        22

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

       

      alleged
        omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
        necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to
        the
        extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue
        statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in
        conformity with written information furnished to the Issuer by Goldman, Sachs
        & Co. or such underwriter expressly for use therein, which information, with
        respect to information provided by Goldman, Sachs & Co. for inclusion in the
        prospectus forming a part of the Market Making Registration Statement the
        parties hereto agree will be limited to the statements concerning the
        market-making activities of Goldman, Sachs & Co. to be set forth on the
        cover page and in the “Plan of Distribution” section of the prospectus forming a
        part of the Market Making Shelf Registration Statement and in the analogous
        section of the Canadian wrapper, if any, of such prospectus and (ii) reimburse
        the Issuer for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Issuer
        in
        connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such
        expenses are incurred; provided,
        however,
        that,
        in the case of Securities held by Goldman, Sachs & Co. at the time of the
        Exchange Offer, Goldman, Sachs & Co. shall not be required to undertake
        liability to any person under this Section 6(c) for any amounts in excess
        of the
        dollar amount of the proceeds to be received by Goldman, Sachs & Co. from
        the sale of such Securities by Goldman, Sachs & Co. pursuant to the Market
        Making Shelf Registration.

    

     

    (d)  Indemnification
      by Affiliate Investors in Connection with the Market Making Shelf
      Registration.
      The
      Issuer may require, as a condition to including any Securities or Exchange
      Securities in the Market Making Shelf Registration Statement filed pursuant
      to
      Section 2(c) hereof and to entering into any underwriting agreement with respect
      thereto, that the Issuer shall have received an undertaking reasonably
      satisfactory to it from each underwriter named in any such underwriting
      agreement, severally and not jointly, to, and each Affiliate Investor shall,
      and
      hereby agrees to, (i) indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer and the Guarantors
      against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Issuer or the
      Guarantors may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar
      as
      such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof)
      arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
      of a material fact contained in the Market Making Shelf Registration Statement,
      or any preliminary, final or summary prospectus contained therein or furnished
      by the Issuer to such Affiliate Investor or to any such underwriter, or any
      amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission
      or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated
      therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each
      case
      to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged
      untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon
      and
      in conformity with written information furnished to the Issuer by such Affiliate
      Investor or such underwriter expressly for use therein, and (ii) reimburse
      the
      Issuer for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Issuer in
      connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such
      expenses are incurred;
      provided,
      however,
      that,
      in the case of Securities held by Goldman, Sachs & Co. at the time of the
      Exchange Offer, Goldman, Sachs & Co. shall not be required to undertake
      liability to any person under this Section 6(d) for any amounts in excess of
      the
      dollar amount of the proceeds to be received by Goldman, Sachs & Co. from
      the sale of such Securities by Goldman, Sachs & Co. pursuant to the Market
      Making Shelf Registration.

     

    (e)  Notices
      of Claims, Etc. Promptly
      after receipt by an indemnified party under subsection (a), (b), (c) or (d)
      above of written notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified
      party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying
      party pursuant to the indemnification provisions of or contemplated by this
      

     

    
      
         

      

      
        23

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

       

      Section 6,
        notify such indemnifying party in writing of the commencement of such action;
        but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it
        from
        any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under
        the indemnification provisions of or contemplated by
        Section 6(a), 6(b), 6(c) or 6(d). In case any such action shall be
        brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify an indemnifying
        party
        of the commencement thereof, such indemnifying party shall be entitled to
        participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any
        other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof,
        with
        counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not,
        except
        with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying
        party), and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified
        party
        of its election so to assume the defense thereof, such indemnifying party
        shall
        not be liable to such indemnified party for any legal expenses of other counsel
        or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such indemnified
        party, in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs
        of
        investigation. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent
        of
        the indemnified party, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent
        to the
        entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or
        claim
        in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder
        (whether or not the indemnified party is an actual or potential party to
        such
        action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment
        (i) includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all
        liability arising out of such action or claim and (ii) does not include a
        statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act
        by
        or on behalf of any indemnified party.

    

     

    (f)  Contribution.
      If
      for
      any reason the indemnification provisions contemplated by Section 6(a),
      6(b), 6(c) or 6(d) are unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an
      indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities
      (or
      actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party
      shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as
      a
      result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect
      thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault
      of
      the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in connection with the
      statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or
      liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant
      equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and
      indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
      whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission
      or
      alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by
      such indemnifying party or by such indemnified party, and the parties’ relative
      intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent
      such statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just
      and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 6(f) were
      determined by pro rata allocation (even if the holders were treated as one
      entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not
      take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this
      Section 6(f). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a
      result of the losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect
      thereof) referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees
      or
      expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with
      investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the
      provisions of this Section 6(f), none of any holder, Affiliate Investor or,
      in the case of a Market Making Shelf Registration relating to the sale by
      Goldman, Sachs & Co. of Securities held by it at the time of the Exchange
      Offer, Goldman, Sachs & Co. shall be required to contribute any amount in
      excess of the amount by which the dollar amount of the proceeds received by
      such
      holder from the sale of any Registrable Securities or Goldman, Sachs & Co.
      or any Affiliate Investor from the sale of any such Securities (after

     

    
      
         

      

      
        24

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

       

      deducting
        any fees, discounts and commissions applicable thereto) exceeds the amount
        of
        any damages which such holder or Goldman, Sachs & Co. or such Affiliate
        Investor, as applicable, have otherwise been required to pay by reason of
        such
        untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. 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. The holders’, Goldman, Sachs
& Co.’s and any Affiliate Investor’s obligations in this Section 6(f)
        to contribute shall be several in proportion to the principal amount of
        Registrable Securities registered by them and not joint.

    

     

    (g)  The
      obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors under this Section 6 shall be
      in addition to any liability which the Issuer or the Guarantors may otherwise
      have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each officer,
      director and partner of Goldman, Sachs & Co., each holder, Affiliate
      Investor, and each person, if any, who controls Goldman, Sachs & Co., any
      holder, Affiliate Investor within the meaning of the Securities Act; and the
      obligations of Goldman, Sachs & Co., the holders, the Affiliate Investors
      contemplated by this Section 6 shall be in addition to any liability which
      Goldman, Sachs & Co., the respective holder or Affiliate Investor may
      otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each
      officer and director of the Issuer or any of the Guarantors (including any
      person who, with his consent, is named in any registration statement as about
      to
      become a director of the Issuer or any of the Guarantors) and to each person,
      if
      any, who controls the Issuer within the meaning of the Securities
      Act.

     

    7.  Underwritten
      Offerings.
      

     

    Each
      holder of Registrable Securities hereby agrees with the Issuer and each other
      such holder that no holder of Registrable Securities may participate in any
      underwritten offering hereunder unless (a) the Issuer gives its prior
      written consent to such underwritten offering, (b) the managing underwriter
      or underwriters thereof shall be designated by Electing Holders holding at
      least
      a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Securities to be
      included in such offering, provided that such designated managing underwriter
      or
      underwriters is or are reasonably acceptable to the Issuer, (c) each holder
      of Registrable Securities participating in such underwritten offering agrees
      to
      sell such holder’s Registrable Securities on the basis provided in any
      underwriting arrangements approved by the persons entitled selecting the
      managing underwriter or underwriters hereunder and (d) each holder of
      Registrable Securities participating in such underwritten offering completes
      and
      executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting
      agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such
      underwriting arrangements.

     

    8.  Rule 144.

     

    The
      Issuer covenants to the holders of Registrable Securities, Goldman, Sachs &
Co. and the Affiliate Investors that to the extent it shall be required to
      do so
      under the Exchange Act, the Issuer shall timely file the reports required to
      be
      filed by it under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act (including the reports
      under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act referred to in subparagraph
      (c)(1) of Rule 144), and shall take such further action as any holder of
      Registrable Securities, Goldman, Sachs & Co. or any Affiliate Investor may
      reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable
      such
      holder to sell Registrable Securities or Goldman, Sachs & Co. and the
      Affiliate Investors to sell Securities or Exchange Securities without
      registration under the Securities Act within the limitations of the exemption
      provided by Rule 144. Upon the request of any holder of Registrable
      Securities, Goldman, 

     

    
      
         

      

      
        25

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

       

      Sachs
        & Co. or any Affiliate Investor in connection with that holder’s, Goldman,
        Sachs & Co.’s or that Affiliate Investor’s sale pursuant to Rule 144,
        the Issuer shall deliver to such holder, Goldman, Sachs & Co. or Affiliate
        Investor a written statement as to whether it has complied with such
        requirements.

    

     

    9.  Miscellaneous.

     

    (a)  No
      Inconsistent Agreements. The
      Issuer represents, warrants, covenants and agrees that it has not granted,
      and
      shall not grant, registration rights with respect to Registrable Securities,
      Securities or Exchange Securities, as applicable, or any other securities which
      would be inconsistent with the terms contained in this Agreement.

     

    (b)  Specific
      Performance.
      Subject
      to the provisions set forth in Section 3(d) hereof, the parties hereto
      acknowledge that there would be no adequate remedy at law if the Issuer fails
      to
      perform any of its obligations hereunder and that the Purchasers and the holders
      from time to time of the Registrable Securities may be irreparably harmed by
      any
      such failure, and accordingly agree that the Purchasers and such holders, in
      addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled at law or in equity,
      shall be entitled to compel specific performance of the obligations of the
      Issuer under this Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions of
      this
      Agreement, in any court of the United States or any State thereof having
      jurisdiction. Time shall be of the essence in this Agreement.

     

    (c)  Notices.All
      notices, requests, claims, demands, waivers and other communications hereunder
      shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered
      by hand, if delivered personally, by facsimile or by courier, or three days
      after being deposited in the mail (registered or certified mail, postage
      prepaid, return receipt requested) as follows: If to the Issuer, to it at 100

      other records of the Issuer, or to such other address as the Issuer or any
      such
      holder may have furnished to the other in writing in accordance herewith, except
      that notices of change of address shall be effective only upon
      receipt.

     

    (d)  Parties
      in Interest.
      All the
      terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon, shall inure to
      the
      benefit of and shall be enforceable by the parties hereto and the holders from
      time to time of the Registrable Securities and the respective successors and
      assigns of the parties hereto and such holders. In the event that any transferee
      of any holder of Registrable Securities shall acquire Registrable Securities,
      in
      any manner, whether by gift, bequest, purchase, operation of law or otherwise,
      such transferee shall, without any further writing or action of any kind, be
      deemed a beneficiary hereof for all purposes and such Registrable Securities
      shall be held subject to all of the terms of this Agreement, and by taking
      and
      holding such Registrable Securities such transferee shall be entitled to receive
      the benefits of, and be conclusively deemed to have agreed to be bound by all
      of
      the applicable terms and provisions of this Agreement. If the Issuer shall
      so
      request, any such successor, assign or transferee shall agree in writing to
      acquire and hold the Registrable Securities subject to all of the applicable
      terms hereof.

     

    (e)  Survival.

      as set forth below in this Item (4), the undersigned Selling Securityholder
      is not the beneficial or registered owner of any other
      securities

            
      of the Company, other than the Securities listed above in
      Item (3).

     

    State

      exceptions here:

      Company”),
      then the Selling Securityholder must disclose the name of the natural person(s)
      who exercise sole or shared dispositive powers with respect to the Securities.
      Selling Securityholders should disclose the beneficial holders, not nominee
      holders or other such others of record. In addition, the Commission has provided
      guidance that Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 should be
      used by analogy when determining the person or persons sharing voting and/or
      dispositive powers with respect to the Securities.

     

    (a) Is
      the
      holder a Reporting Company?

      Company (or its predecessors or affiliates) during the past three

    Except
      as set forth below, the undersigned Selling Securityholder intends to distribute
      the Registrable Securities listed above in Item (3) only as follows (if at
      all):
      Such Registrable Securities may be sold from time to time directly by the
      undersigned Selling Securityholder. Such Registrable Securities may be sold
      in
      one or more transactions at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the
      time of sale, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated
      prices. Such sales may be effected in transactions (which may involve crosses
      or
      block transactions) (i) on any national securities exchange or quotation service
      on which the Registered Securities 

     

    
      
         

      

      
        A-5

      be listed or quoted at the time of sale, (ii) in the over-the-counter market,
      (iii) in transactions otherwise than on such exchanges or services or in the
      over-the-counter market, or (iv) through the writing of options. In connection
      with sales of the Registrable Securities or otherwise, the Selling
      Securityholder may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers, which
      may in turn engage in short sales of the Registrable Securities in the course
      of
      hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Securityholder may also sell
      Registrable Securities short and deliver Registrable Securities to close out
      such short positions, or loan or pledge Registrable Securities to broker-dealers
      that in turn may sell such securities.

     

    State
      any
      exceptions here:

     

      
        

      

    

     

      
        

      

    

     

      
        

      

    

    Note:
      In no event may such method(s) of distribution take the form of an underwritten
      offering of Registrable Securities without the prior written agreement of the
      Company.

    The
      Commission requires that all Selling Securityholders that are registered
      broker-dealers or affiliates of registered broker-dealers be so identified

      all
      Selling Securityholders that are registered broker-dealers be named as
      underwriters in the Shelf Registration Statement and related Prospectus, even
      if
      they did not receive the Registrable Securities as compensation for underwriting

    (b) Set
      forth
      below is Interpretation A.65 of the Commission’s July 1997 Manual of Publicly
      Available Interpretations regarding short selling:

     

    “An
      issuer filed a Form S-3 registration statement for a secondary offering of
      common stock which is not yet effective. One of the selling shareholders wanted
      to do a short sale of common stock “against the box” and cover the short sale
      with registered shares after the effective date. The issuer was advised that
      the
      short sale could not be made before the registration statement becomes
      effective, because the shares underlying the short sale are deemed to be sold
      at
      the time such sale is made. There would, therefore, be a violation of
      Section 5 if the shares were effectively sold prior to the effective
      date.”

     

    By
      returning this Notice and Questionnaire, the
      undersigned Selling Securityholder will be deemed to be aware of the foregoing
      interpretation.

     

    

    *     *     *     *     *

     

    

     

    By
      signing below, the Selling Securityholder acknowledges that it understands
      its
      obligation to comply, and agrees that it will comply, with the provisions of
      the
      Exchange Act, particularly Regulation M (or any successor rule or
      regulation).

     

    The
      Selling Securityholder hereby acknowledges its obligations under the Exchange
      and Registration Rights Agreement to indemnify and hold harmless the Company
      and
      certain other persons as set forth in the Exchange and Registration Rights
      Agreement.

     

    In
      the
      event that the Selling Securityholder transfers all or any portion of the
      Registrable Securities listed in Item (3) above after the date on which
      such information is provided to the Company, the Selling Securityholder agrees
      to notify the transferee(s) at the time of the transfer of its rights and
      obligations under this Notice and Questionnaire and the Exchange and
      Registration Rights Agreement.

     

    By
      signing below, the Selling Securityholder consents to the disclosure of the
      information contained herein in its answers to Items (1) through (9) above
      and the inclusion of such information in the Shelf Registration Statement and
      related Prospectus. The Selling Securityholder understands that such information
      will be relied upon by the Company in connection with the preparation of the
      Shelf Registration Statement and related Prospectus.

     

    In
      accordance with the Selling Securityholder’s obligation under Section 3(d)
      of the Exchange and Registration Rights Agreement to provide such information
      as
      may be required by law for inclusion in the Shelf Registration Statement, the
      Selling Securityholder agrees to promptly notify the Company of any inaccuracies
      or changes in the information provided herein which may occur subsequent to
      the
      date hereof at any time while the Shelf Registration Statement remains in effect
      and to provide such additional information that the Company may reasonably
      request regarding such Selling Securityholder and the intended method of
      distribution of Registrable Securities in order to comply with the Securities
      Act. Except as otherwise provided in the Exchange and Registration Rights
      Agreement, all notices hereunder and pursuant to the

      Securityholder (with respect to the Registrable Securities beneficially owned
      by
