credit facility computed on a pro forma basis shall be computed based upon the
average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the applicable period.  Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally
be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar

have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or, if none, then based upon

the determination of Holders entitled to give such request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the Company
shall have no obligation to do so.  Notwithstanding
TIA 

 

29

 

Section 316(c), such record date shall
be the record date specified in or pursuant to such Board Resolution, which
shall be a date not earlier than the date 30 days prior to the first solicitation
of Holders generally in connection therewith and not later than the date such
solicitation is completed.  If such a
record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other Act may be given before or after such record date, but
only the Holders of record at the close of business on such record date shall
be deemed to be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the
requisite proportion of Outstanding Notes have authorized or agreed or
consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or other Act, and for that purpose the Outstanding Notes shall be
computed as of such record date; provided that
no such authorization, agreement or consent by the Holders on such record date
shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the
provisions of this Indenture not later than eleven months after the record
date.  Any request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Note shall
bind every future Holder of the same Note and the Holder of every Note issued
upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu
thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the
Trustee, the Company or any Guarantor in reliance thereon, whether or not notation
of such action is made upon such Note.

 

SECTION 105.                    Notices,
Etc., to Trustee, Company, Any Guarantor and Agent.

 

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

 

(1)                                  the
Trustee by any Holder or by the Company or any Guarantor shall be sufficient
for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing
(which may be via facsimile) to or with the Trustee at The Bank of New York
Mellon Trust Company, N.A., 10161 Centurion Parkway, Jacksonville, Florida
32256, Attention: Corporate Trust Administration Division, or

 

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

 

SECTION 106.                    Notice to
Holders; Waiver.

 

Where this Indenture provides for notice of
any event to Holders by the Company or the Trustee, such notice shall be
sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing
and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event,
at his address as it appears in the Note Register, not later than the latest
date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such
notice.  In any case where notice to
Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any
defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the
sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders.  Notices given by publication shall be deemed
given on the first date on which publication is made and notices given by
first-class mail, postage prepaid, shall be deemed given five calendar days
after mailing.

 

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

 

Where this Indenture provides for notice in
any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to
receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be
the equivalent of such notice.  Waivers
of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not
be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon
such waiver.

 

30

 

SECTION 107.                    Effect of
Headings and Table of Contents.

 

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

 

SECTION 108.                    Successors
and Assigns.

 

All agreements of the Company in this
Indenture and the Notes will bind its successors.  All agreements of the Trustee in this
Indenture will bind its successors.  All
agreements of each Guarantor in this Indenture will bind its successors, except
as otherwise provided in Section 1209 hereof.  The provisions of Article Fourteen
relating to the Notes Collateral Agent shall inure to the benefit of such Notes
Collateral Agent.

 

SECTION 109.                    Separability
Clause.

 

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

 

SECTION 110.                    Benefits of
Indenture.

 

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

 

SECTION 111.                    Governing
Law.

 

This Indenture, the Notes and any Guarantee
shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
New York.  This Indenture is subject to
the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act that are referred to herein or are
otherwise required to be part of this Indenture and shall, to the extent
applicable, be governed by such provisions.

 

SECTION 112.                    Communication
by Holders of Notes with Other Holders of Notes.

 

Holders may communicate pursuant to Trust
Indenture Act Section 312(b) with other Holders with respect to their
rights under this Indenture or the Notes. 
The Company, the Trustee, the Notes Registrar and anyone else shall have
the protection of Trust Indenture Act Section 312(c).

 

SECTION 113.                    Legal
Holidays.

 

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

 

SECTION 114.                    No Personal
Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees and Stockholders.

 

No director, officer, employee, incorporator
or stockholder of the Company or any Guarantor or any of their parent companies
shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company or the Guarantors under
the Notes, the Guarantees or this Indenture or for any claim based on, in
respect of, or by reason of such obligations or their creation.  Each Holder by accepting a Note and the
related Guarantee waives and releases all such liability.  The waiver and release are part of the
consideration for issuance of the Notes and the Guarantees.  Such waiver may 

 

31

 

not be effective to waive liabilities under
the federal securities laws and it is the view of the Commission that such a
waiver is against public policy.

 

SECTION 115.                    Trust
Indenture Act Controls.

 

If any provision of this Indenture limits,
qualifies or conflicts with another provision which is required to be included
in this Indenture by the TIA, the provision required by the TIA shall control.  If any provision of this Indenture modifies
or excludes any provision of the TIA that may be so modified or excluded, the
latter provision shall be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so modified or
excluded, as the case may be.

 

SECTION 116.                    Counterparts.

 

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

 

SECTION 117.                    USA Patriot
Act.

 

The parties hereto acknowledge that in
accordance with Section 326 of the USA Patriot Act the Trustee and Agents,
like all financial institutions and in order to help fight the funding of
terrorism and money laundering, are required to obtain, verify, and record
information that identifies each person or legal entity that establishes a
relationship or opens an account.  The
parties to this Indenture agree that they will provide the Trustee and the
Agents with such information as they may request in order to satisfy the
requirements of the USA Patriot Act.

 

SECTION 118.                    Intercreditor
Agreement Governs.

 

Reference is made to the Intercreditor Agreement.  Each Holder, by its acceptance of a Note, (a) consents
to the subordination of Liens provided for in the Intercreditor Agreement, (b) agrees
that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of
the Intercreditor Agreement and (c) authorizes and instructs the Trustee
and Notes Collateral Agent to enter into the Intercreditor Agreement as Trustee
and Notes Collateral Agent, respectively, and on behalf of such Holder.  The foregoing provisions are intended as an
inducement to the lenders under the Credit Agreement to extend credit and such
lenders are intended third party beneficiaries of such provisions and the
provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement.

 

SECTION 119.                    Waiver of
Jury Trial.

 

EACH OF THE COMPANY AND THE TRUSTEE HEREBY
IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND
ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING
TO THIS INDENTURE, THE NOTES OR THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

 

SECTION 120.                    Force
Majeure.

 

In no event shall the Trustee be responsible
or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations
hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond
its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents,
acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural
catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of
utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it
being understood that the Trustee shall use reasonable efforts which are
consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume
performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.

of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

 

The terms and provisions contained in the
Notes will constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture
and the Company, 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

Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

produced in any other manner, all as determined by the Officers of the Company
executing such Notes, as evidenced by their execution of such Notes.

attached thereto).  Notes issued in
definitive form will be substantially in the form of Exhibit A 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 will represent such of the
outstanding Notes as will be specified therein and each shall provide that it
represents the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes from time to
time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding
Notes represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as
appropriate, 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 will 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 312 hereof.

hereof.

 

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating

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 Company.

 

Subject to Section 611, the Trustee’s
certificate of authentication shall be in substantially the following form:

 

TRUSTEE’S CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICATION.

SECTION 301.                                       Title
and Terms.

 

The aggregate principal amount of Notes which
may be authenticated and issued under this Indenture is not limited; provided, however, that
any Additional Notes issued under this Indenture are issued in accordance with
Sections 303 and 1011 hereof, as part of the same series as the Notes.

 

The Notes shall be known and designated as
the “10.875% Senior Secured Notes due 2016” of the Company.  The Stated Maturity of the Notes shall be April 15,
2016, and the Notes shall bear interest at the rate of 10.875% per annum from May 29,
2009, or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been
paid or duly provided for, payable on October 15, 2009 and semi-annually
thereafter on April 15 and October 15 in each year and at said Stated
Maturity, until the principal thereof is paid or duly provided for and to the
Person in whose name the Note (or any predecessor Note) is registered at the
close of business on the April 1 and October 1 immediately preceding
such Interest Payment Date (each, a “Regular Record Date”).

 

The principal of (and premium, if any) and
interest on the Notes shall be payable at the office or agency of the Company
maintained for such purpose in The City and State of New York or, at the option
of the Company, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders
of the Notes at their respective addresses set forth in the Note Register of
Holders; provided that all payments of principal,
premium, if any, and interest, if any, with respect to Notes represented by one
or more Global Notes registered in the name of or held by Depositary or its
nominee will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the
accounts specified by the

 

35

 

Holder or Holders thereof.  Until otherwise designated by the Company,
the Company’s office or agency in New York shall be the office of the trustee
maintained for such purpose.

 

Holders shall have the right to require the
Company to purchase their Notes, in whole or in part, in the event of a Change
in Control pursuant to Section 1017. 
The Notes shall be subject to repurchase pursuant to an offer to
purchase as provided in Section 1018.

 

The Notes shall be redeemable as provided in Article Eleven.

 

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

 

SECTION 302.                                       Denominations.

 

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

 

SECTION 303.                                       Execution,
Authentication, Delivery and Dating.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

On the Issue Date, the Company shall deliver
the Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $350,000,000 executed by the
Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for
the authentication and delivery of such Notes, directing the Trustee to
authenticate the Notes and certifying that all conditions precedent to the
issuance of Notes contained herein have been fully complied with, and the
Trustee in accordance with such Company Order shall authenticate and deliver
such Notes.  At any time and from time to
time after the Issue Date, the Company may deliver Additional Notes executed by
the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order
for the authentication and delivery of such Additional Notes, directing the
Trustee to authenticate the Additional Notes and certifying that the issuance
of such Additional Notes is in compliance with Article Ten hereof and that
all other conditions precedent to the issuance of Notes contained herein have
been fully complied with, and the Trustee in accordance with such Company Order
shall authenticate and deliver such Additional Notes.  In each case, the Trustee shall receive an
Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel of the Company that it may
reasonably require in connection with such authentication of Notes.  Such order shall specify the amount of Notes
to be authenticated and the date on which the original issue of Notes is to be
authenticated.

 

Each Note shall be dated the date of its
authentication.

 

No Note shall be entitled to any benefit
under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there
appears on such Note a certificate of authentication substantially in the form
provided for herein duly executed by the Trustee by manual signature of an
authorized officer, and such certificate upon any Note shall be conclusive
evidence, and the only evidence, that such Note has been duly authenticated and
delivered hereunder and is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

 

36

 

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

 

SECTION 304.                                       Temporary
Notes.

 

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

 

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

 

SECTION 305.                                       Registration,
Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

 

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

 

Upon surrender for registration of transfer
of any Note at the office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 1002,
the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in
the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of
any authorized denomination or denominations of a like aggregate principal
amount.

 

At the option of the Holder, Notes may be
exchanged for other Notes of any authorized denomination and of a like
aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such
office or agency.  Whenever any Notes are
so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate
and deliver, the Notes which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to
receive.

 

37

 

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

 

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

 

No service charge shall be made for any
registration of transfer or exchange or redemption of Notes, but the Company
may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any taxes, fees or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of
transfer or exchange of Notes, other than exchanges pursuant to Sections 303,
304, 906, 1017, 1018 or 1108 not involving any transfer.

 

SECTION 306.                                       Mutilated,
Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Notes.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

SECTION 307.                                       Payment
of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved.

 

Interest on any Note which is payable, and is
punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be
paid to the Person in whose name such Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes)
is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such
interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose
pursuant to Section 1002; provided, however, that, subject to Section 301 hereof, each installment
of interest may at the Company’s option be paid by (i) mailing a check for
such interest, payable to or upon the written order of the Person entitled
thereto pursuant to Section 308, to the address of such Person as it appears
in the Note Register or (ii) transfer to an account located in the United
States maintained by the payee.

 

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

 

38

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

SECTION 308.                                       Persons
Deemed Owners.

 

Prior to the due presentment of a Note for
registration of transfer, the Company, any Guarantor, the Trustee and any agent
of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Note is
registered as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of
principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Sections 305 and 307)
interest on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not
such Note be overdue, and none of the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the
Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

 

SECTION 309.                                       Cancellation.

 

All Notes surrendered for payment,
redemption, registration of transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any
Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be
promptly cancelled by it.  The Company
may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously
authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in
any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee (or to any other Person
for delivery to the Trustee) for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated
hereunder which the Company has not issued and sold, and all Notes so delivered
shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. 
If the Company shall so acquire any of the Notes, however, such
acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of the
indebtedness represented by such Notes unless and until the same are
surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation. 
No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes
cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this
Indenture.  All cancelled Notes held by
the Trustee shall be disposed of by the Trustee in accordance with its
customary procedures unless by Company Order the Company shall direct that
cancelled Notes be returned to it.

and Transfer Provisions.

 

(a)                                  Transfer
and Exchange of Global Notes.  A
Global Note may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a
nominee of the Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or
to another nominee of the Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such nominee
to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary.  All Global Notes will be exchanged by the
Company for Definitive Notes if:

 

(1)                                  the
Depositary (a) notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to
continue as depositary for the Global Notes or (b) has ceased to be a
clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case, the
Company fails to appoint a successor depositary;

 

(2)                                  the
Company, at its option, notifies the Trustee in writing that it elects to cause

for, or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion thereof, pursuant to this
Sections 304 or 306 hereof, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form
of, and shall be, a Global Note.  A
Global Note may not be exchanged for another Note other than as provided in
this Section 312(a), however, beneficial interests in a Global Note may be
transferred and exchanged as provided in Section 312(b) or (c) hereof.

and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in the Global Notes.  The transfer and exchange of beneficial
interests in the Global Notes will be effected through the Depositary, in accordance
with the provisions of this Indenture and the Applicable Procedures.  Beneficial interests in the Restricted Global
Notes will be subject to restrictions on transfer comparable to those set forth

Notes also will require compliance with either subparagraph (1) or (2) below,
as applicable, as well as one or more of the other following subparagraphs, as

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

required to be delivered to the Note Registrar to effect the transfers
described in this Section 312(b)(1).

 

(2)                                  All Other Transfers and Exchanges of Beneficial Interests in Global

transfer or exchange referred to in (A) above.

(3)                                  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 312(b)(2) above

shall issue and, upon receipt of a Company Order in accordance with Section 202
hereof, the Trustee shall authenticate one or more Unrestricted Global Notes in

beneficial interests transferred pursuant to subparagraph (A) or (B) above.

 

(c)                                  Transfer

delivery thereof in the form of a Restricted Definitive Note if the Note
Registrar receives the following:

or transferred to a Person or Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of
an Unrestricted Definitive Note if:

 

(1)                                  any such

(3)                                  Unrestricted
Definitive Notes to Unrestricted Definitive Notes.  A Holder of Unrestricted
Definitive Notes may transfer such Notes to a Person who takes delivery thereof
in the form of an Unrestricted Definitive Note. Upon receipt of a request to
register such a transfer, the Note Registrar shall register the Unrestricted
Definitive Notes pursuant to the instructions from the Holder thereof.

 

(f)                                    [INTENTIONALLY
DELETED].

 

(g)                                 Cancellation
and/or Adjustment of Global Notes.  At such time as all beneficial interests in a
particular Global Note have been exchanged for Definitive Notes or a particular
Global Note has been redeemed, repurchased or canceled in whole and not in
part, each such Global Note will be returned to or retained and canceled by the
Trustee in accordance with Section 309 hereof.  At any time prior to such cancellation, if
any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for or transferred to a
Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in
another Global Note or for Definitive Notes, the principal amount of Notes
represented by such Global Note will be reduced accordingly and an endorsement
will be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depositary at the
direction of the Trustee to reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial
interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take
delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note,
such other Global Note will be increased accordingly and an endorsement will be
made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depositary at the direction
of the Trustee to reflect such increase.

to the contrary.

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

delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal (and premium, if any)
and interest to the date of such deposit (in the case of Notes which have
become due and payable) or to the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the

the obligations of the Company to any Authenticating Agent under Section 612
and, if money or Government Securities shall have been deposited with the
Trustee pursuant to subclause (b) of clause (1) of this Section, the

court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting
such application, the Company’s and any Guarantor’s obligations under this
Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit
had occurred pursuant to Section 401 until such time as the Trustee or
Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or Government Securities in
accordance with Section 401; provided that
if the Company has made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or
interest on any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the
Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to
receive such payment from the money or Government Securities held by the
Trustee or Paying Agent.

(9)                                 the Forward
Purchase Contract is terminated prior to the settlement date or one or more
conditions precedent to the purchase of the Convertible Notes by Sealy Holding
LLC pursuant to the Forward Purchase Contract has not been satisfied or becomes
impossible to satisfy and such condition or conditions has not been waived by
Sealy Holding LLC.

 

SECTION 502.                                       Acceleration of
Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

 

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of
Default specified in Section 501(6) above) occurs and is continuing,
then and in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of at least 30% in principal
amount of the Outstanding Notes issued under this Indenture may declare the
principal, premium, if any, interest and any other monetary obligations on all
the Outstanding Notes to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing
to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders).

 

Upon the effectiveness of such declaration, such
principal and interest will be due and payable immediately.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of
Default specified in Section 501(6) above occurs and is continuing,
then the principal amount of all Outstanding Notes shall ipso facto become and
be immediately due and payable without any notice, declaration or other act on
the part of the Trustee or any Holder.

 

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

 

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

 

(A)                              all overdue
interest on all Outstanding Notes,

 

(B)                                all unpaid
principal of (and premium on) any Outstanding Notes which has become due
otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration, and interest on such unpaid
principal at the rate borne by the Notes,

 

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

 

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

 

(b)                                 Events of
Default, other than the non-payment of amounts of principal of (or premium, if
any, on) or interest on Notes which have become due solely by such declaration
of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 513, no
such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent
thereon.

 

Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, in the
event of any Event of Default specified in Section 501(4) above, such
Event of Default and all consequences thereof (excluding any resulting payment
default) shall be annulled, waived and rescinded, automatically and without any
action by the Trustee or the Holders, if within 20 days after such Event of Default
arose,

 

51

 

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

 

(y)                                 the holders thereof have
rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or action (as the case may be)
giving rise to such Event of Default, or

 

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

 

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

 

SECTION 503.                                       Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement
by Trustee.

 

The Company covenants that
if:

 

(a)                                  default is made
in the payment of any installment of interest on any Note when such interest becomes
due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days, or

 

(b)                                 default is made
in the payment of the principal of (or premium on) any Note at the Maturity
thereof,

 

the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee,
pay to the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of such Notes, the whole
amount then due and payable on such Notes for principal (and premium, if any)
and interest, and interest on any overdue principal (and premium, if any) and,
to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, upon
any overdue installment of interest, at the rate borne by the Notes, and, in
addition thereto, 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.

 

If the Company fails to pay such amounts forthwith
upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name as trustee of an express trust,
may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid,
may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the
same against the Company, any Guarantor or any other obligor upon the Notes and
collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by
law out of the property of the Company, any Guarantor or any other obligor upon
the Notes, wherever situated.

 

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the
Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the
rights of the Holders under this Indenture and the Guarantees by such
appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem necessary to protect
and enforce any such rights, including seeking recourse against any Guarantor,
whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this
Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce
any other proper remedy, including but without limitation, seeking recourse
against any Guarantor.

 

SECTION 504.                                       Trustee May File Proofs
of Claim.

 

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

 

52

 

(i)                             to file and
prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (and premium, if any) and interest
owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes and to file such other papers or
documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the
Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the
Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and

 

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

 

and any custodian, receiver, assignee,
trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official in any such judicial
proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the
Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such
payments directly to the Holders, to pay the Trustee any amount due it for the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee,
its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 607.

 

Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to
authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf
of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or
composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to
authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such
proceeding.

 

SECTION 505.                                         Trustee May Enforce
Claims Without Possession of Notes.

 

All rights of action and claims under this Indenture
or the Notes may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the
possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any proceeding
relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be
brought in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of
judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be
for the ratable benefit of the Holders in respect of which such judgment has
been recovered.

 

SECTION 506.                                         Application of
Money Collected.

 

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

 

FIRST:  To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee
under Section 607 and the Notes Collateral Agent under Section 1412;

 

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

 

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

 

SECTION 507.                                         Limitation on
Suits.

 

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

 

53

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

SECTION 508.                                         Unconditional
Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest.

 

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

 

SECTION 509.                                         Restoration of
Rights and Remedies.

 

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

 

SECTION 510.                                         Rights and
Remedies Cumulative.

 

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

 

SECTION 511.                                         Delay or
Omission Not Waiver.

 

No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder
of any Note to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default
shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event 

 

54

 

of Default or an acquiescence
therein.  Every right and remedy given by
this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised
from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by
the Holders, as the case may be.

 

SECTION 512.                                         Control by
Holders.

 

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

 

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

 

(2)                                 
subject to Section 315 of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee may
take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent
with such direction, and

 

(3)                                 
the Trustee need not take any action which might involve it in personal
liability or be unjustly prejudicial to the Holders not consenting.

 

SECTION 513.                                         Waiver of Past
Defaults.

 

Subject to Sections 508 and 902 and the last
paragraph of Section 502, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal
amount of the Outstanding Notes may on behalf of the Holders of all such Notes
waive any past Default hereunder and its consequences, except a continuing
Default or Event of Default (1) in respect of the payment of interest on,
premium, if any, or the principal of any such Note held by a non-consenting
Holder, or (2) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article Nine
cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each
Outstanding Note affected.

 

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 Event of Default or impair any right
consequent thereon.

 

SECTION 514.                                         Waiver of Stay
or Extension Laws.

 

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

THE TRUSTEE

 

SECTION 601.                                         Duties of the
Trustee.

 

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

 

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

 

55

 

(2)                                 
in the absence of bad faith or willful misconduct on its part, the
Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the
correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions
furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture;
but in the case of any such certificates or opinions specifically required by
any provision hereof to be provided to it, the Trustee shall be under a duty to
examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements
of this Indenture, but not to verify the contents thereof.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

Defaults.

 

Within thirty days after the earlier of receipt from
the Company of notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default
hereunder or the date when such Default or Event of Default becomes known to
the Trustee, the Trustee shall transmit, in the manner and to the extent
provided in TIA Section 313(c), notice of such Default or Event of Default
hereunder known to the Trustee, unless such Default or Event of Default shall
have been cured or waived; provided, however, that, except in the case of a
Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if
any, on) or interest on any Note, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding
such notice if and so long as a trust committee of Responsible Officers of the
Trustee in good faith determine that the withholding of such notice is in the
interest of the Holders.

 

SECTION 603.                                         Certain Rights

(11)                              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.

 

The Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk
its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of
any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers
if it shall 

 

57

 

have reasonable grounds for
believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk
or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

 

SECTION 604.                                         Trustee Not
Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Notes.

 

The recitals contained herein and in the Notes,
except for the Trustee’s certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the
statements of the Company, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their
correctness.  The Trustee makes no
representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the
Notes, except that the Trustee represents that it is duly authorized to execute
and deliver this Indenture, authenticate the Notes and perform its obligations
hereunder and that the statements made by it in a “Statement of Eligibility” on
Form T-1 supplied to the Company are true and accurate, subject to the
qualifications set forth therein.  The
Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of
Notes or the proceeds thereof.

 

SECTION 605.                                         May Hold
Notes.

 

The Trustee, any Paying Agent, any Note Registrar or
any other agent of the Company or of the Trustee, in its individual or any
other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and, subject to TIA Sections
310(b) and 311, may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights
it would have if it were not the Trustee, Paying Agent, Note Registrar or such
other agent; provided, however,
that, if it acquires any conflicting interest, it must eliminate such conflict
within 90 days, apply to the Commission for permission to continue or resign.

 

SECTION 606.                                         Money Held in
Trust.

 

Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need
not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.  The Trustee shall be under no liability for
interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed in
writing with the Company.

 

SECTION 607.                                         Compensation
and Reimbursement.

 

The Company agrees:

 

(1)                                 
to pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation as shall be
agreed in writing between the Company and the Trustee for all services rendered
by it hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of
law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust);

 

(2)                                 
except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee
upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances
incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this
Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements
of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as
shall be determined to have been caused by its own negligence or willful misconduct;
and

 

(3)                                 
to indemnify the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee for, and to hold
it harmless against, any and all loss, liability, claim, damage or expense,
including taxes (other than the taxes based on the income of the Trustee)
incurred without negligence or willful misconduct on its part, arising out of
or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust, including
the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim regardless of
whether the claim is asserted by the Company, a Guarantor, a Holder or any
other Person or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any
of its powers or duties hereunder.

 

The obligations of the Company under this Section to
compensate the Trustee, to pay or reimburse the Trustee for expenses,
disbursements and advances and to indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee shall
constitute additional indebtedness hereunder and shall survive the satisfaction
and discharge of this Indenture and resignation or removal of the Trustee.  As security for the performance of such obligations
of the Company, the Trustee 

 

58

 

shall have a claim prior to
the Notes upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such,
except funds held in trust for the payment of principal of (and premium, if
any) or interest on particular Notes.

 

When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services
in connection with an Event of Default specified in Section 501(6), the
expenses (including the reasonable charges and expenses of its counsel) of and
the compensation for such services are intended to constitute expenses of
administration under any applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or
other similar law.

 

The provisions of this Section shall survive
the termination of this Indenture.

 

SECTION 608.                                         Corporate

which shall be eligible to act as Trustee under TIA Sections 310(a)(1), (2) and
(5) and shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least
$150,000,000.  If such corporation
publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the
requirements of Federal, State, territorial or District of Columbia supervising
or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined
capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined
capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so
published.  If at any time the Trustee
shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section,
it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter
specified in this Article.

 

SECTION 609.                                         Resignation and
Removal; Appointment of Successor.

 

(a)                                    No resignation
or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to
this Article shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by
the successor Trustee in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 610.

 

(b)                                   The Trustee may
resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Company.  Upon receiving such notice of resignation,
the Company shall promptly appoint a successor trustee by written instrument executed
by authority of the Board of Directors, a copy of which shall be delivered to
the resigning Trustee and a copy to the successor trustee.  If the instrument of acceptance by a
successor Trustee required by Section 610 shall not have been delivered to
the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the
resigning Trustee may petition, at the expense of the Company, any court of
competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

 

(c)                                    The Trustee may
be removed at any time by Act of the Holders of not less than a majority in
principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, delivered to the Trustee and to the
Company.  If the instrument of acceptance
by a successor Trustee required by Section 610 shall not have been delivered
to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation,
the resigning Trustee may petition, at the expense of the Company, any court of
competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

 

(d)                                   If at any time:

 

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

the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 608 and shall

who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note for at least six months, or

 

(3)                                 
the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged a
bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be
appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or
of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or
liquidation, then, in any such case, (i) the Company, by a Board
Resolution, may remove the Trustee, or (ii) subject

 

59

 

to
TIA Section 315(e), any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note
for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly
situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the
Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

 

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

 

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

 

SECTION 610.                                         Acceptance of
Appointment by Successor.

 

(a)                                    Every successor
Trustee appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company
and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and
thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become
effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or
conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties
of the retiring Trustee; but, on request of the Company or the successor Trustee,
such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver
an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and
trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to
such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee
hereunder.  Upon request of any such
successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more
fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such
rights, powers and trusts.

 

(b)                                   Upon request of
any such successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments
for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor
Trustee all rights, powers and trusts referred to in paragraph (a) of this
Section.

 

(c)                                    No successor
Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such
successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article.

 

SECTION 611.                                         Merger,
Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business.

 

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

SECTION 612.                                         Appointment of
Authenticating Agent.

 

At any time when any of the Notes remain
Outstanding, the Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents with
respect to the Notes which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee
to authenticate Notes and the Trustee shall give written notice of such
appointment to all Holders of Notes with respect to which such Authenticating
Agent will serve, in the manner provided for in Section 106.  Notes so authenticated shall be entitled to
the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all
purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder.  Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an
instrument in writing signed by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, and a
copy of such instrument shall be promptly furnished to the Company.  Wherever reference is made in this Indenture
to the authentication and delivery of Notes by the Trustee or the Trustee’s
certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include
authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent
and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an
Authenticating Agent.  Each
Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Company and shall at all times
be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United
States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, authorized
under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and
surplus of not less than $150,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination
by Federal or state authority.  If such
corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or
to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the
purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation
shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most
recent report of condition so published. 
If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in
the manner and with the effect specified in this Section.

 

Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent
may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any
corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which
such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to
all or substantially all the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an
Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent, provided such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under
this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act
on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.

 

An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by
giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Company.  The Trustee may at any time terminate the
agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such
Authenticating Agent and to the Company. 
Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination,
or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a
successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and
shall give written notice of such appointment to all Holders of Notes, in the
manner provided for in Section 106. 
Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment
hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its
predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an
Authenticating Agent.  No successor Authenticating
Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section.

 

The Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating
Agent from time to time such compensation for its services under this Section as
shall be agreed in writing between the Company and such Authenticating Agent.

 

If an appointment is made pursuant to this Section,
the Notes may have endorsed thereon, in addition to the Trustee’s certificate
of authentication, an alternate certificate of authentication in the following
form:

 

This is one of the Notes designated therein referred
to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

disposition is made, shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise
every right and power of, the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be,
under this Indenture and/or the Guarantees, as the case may be, with the same
effect as if such successor Person had been named as the Company or such

provided
that in the event of a transfer or lease, the predecessor shall not be released

The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such
designation or rescission and any change in the location of any such other

own Paying Agent, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of (or
premium, if any) or interest on any of the Notes, segregate and hold in trust
for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the
principal of (or premium, if any) or interest so becoming due until such sums

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

 

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

and

 

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

 

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

 

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any
Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the
principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Note and remaining
unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium or interest has become
due and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Request, or (if then
held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of
such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the
Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying
Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as
Trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being
required to make any such repayment, shall at the expense of the Company cause
to be published once, in a newspaper published in the English language,
customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation in the

force and effect the corporate existence and that of each Restricted Subsidiary
and the corporate rights (charter and statutory) and franchises of the Company
and each Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve

preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of
the Company and its Subsidiaries as a whole.

 

SECTION 1005.                                 Payment

be paid or discharged, before the same shall become delinquent, (a) all
taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed upon the Company
or any Subsidiary or upon the income, profits or property of the Company or any
Subsidiary and (b) all lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies,
which, if unpaid, might by law become a lien upon the property of the Company
or any Subsidiary; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay or
discharge or cause to be paid or discharged any such tax, assessment, charge or
claim whose amount, applicability or validity is being contested in good faith
by appropriate proceedings and for which appropriate reserves, if necessary (in
the good faith judgment of management of the Company) are being maintained in

judgment of the Company may be necessary so that the business carried on in
connection therewith may be properly and advantageously conducted at all times;
provided, however,

the maintenance of any of such properties if such discontinuance is, in the
judgment of the Company, desirable in the conduct of its business or the business
of any Restricted Subsidiary.

 

SECTION 1007.                                 Insurance.

Company will at all times keep all of its and its Subsidiaries properties which

like properties.

 

(b)                                 The Company and Guarantors (i) will
cause any insurance policies covering any Collateral to be endorsed or
otherwise amended to include a customary lender’s loss payable endorsement, in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, which endorsement
shall provide that, from and after the Issue Date, if the insurance carrier
shall have received written notice from the Trustee of the occurrence of an
Event of Default, the insurance carrier shall pay all proceeds otherwise
payable to the Company and the Guarantors under such policies directly to the

copies of all such policies to the Trustee; cause each such policy to provide
that it shall not be canceled, modified or not renewed (x) by reason of
nonpayment of premium upon not less than 10 days’ prior written notice thereof
by the insurer to the Trustee (giving the Trustee the right to cure defaults in
the payment of premiums) or (y) for any other reason upon not less than 30
days’ prior written notice thereof by the insurer to the Trustee; and (iii) will
deliver to the Trustee, prior to the cancellation, modification or 

 

69

 

nonrenewal of any such policy of insurance, a
draft copy of a renewal or replacement policy (or other evidence of renewal of
a policy previously delivered to the Trustee) and reasonably promptly
thereafter deliver a duplicate original copy of such policy together with evidence
satisfactory to the Trustee of payment of the premium therefor.

 

(c)                                  The Company and the
Guarantors will notify the Trustee promptly whenever any separate insurance
concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with that required to
be maintained under this covenant is taken out by the Company or any Guarantor,
and promptly deliver to the Trustee a duplicate original copy of such policy or
policies.

Subsidiaries to keep, observe, perform and fulfill its obligations under this
Indenture and further stating, as to each such officer signing such certificate,
that, to the best of his or her knowledge, the Company during such preceding
quarter or the preceding fiscal year, as the case may be, has kept, observed,
performed and fulfilled, and has caused each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to
keep, observe, perform and fulfill each and every such covenant contained in
this Indenture and no Default or Event of Default occurred during such quarter
or year, as the case may be, and at the date of such certificate there is no
Default or Event of Default which has occurred and is continuing or, if such
signers do know of such Default or Event of Default, the certificate shall
describe its status, with particularity and that, to the best of his or her
knowledge, no event has occurred and remains by reason of which payments on the
account of the principal of or interest, if any, on the Notes is prohibited or
if such event has occurred, a description of the event and what action each is
taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.  The Officers’ Certificate shall also notify
the Trustee should the Company elect to change the manner in which it fixes its
fiscal year-end.  For purposes of this Section 1008(a),
such compliance shall be determined without regard to any period of grace or
requirement of notice under this Indenture.

any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture,
or (ii) if the trustee for or the holder of any other evidence of
Indebtedness of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary gives any notice or
takes any other action with respect to a claimed default (other than with respect
to Indebtedness in the principal amount of less than $25,000,000), the Company
shall deliver to the Trustee by registered or certified mail or facsimile
transmission an Officers’ Certificate specifying such event, notice or other
action within five Business Days of its occurrence.

not be so obligated to file such reports with the Commission if the Commission
does not permit such filing, in which event the Company shall make available
such information to prospective purchasers of the Notes, in addition to providing
such information to the Trustee and the Holders in each case within 15 days
after the time the Company would be required to file such information with the
Commission, if it were subject to Sections 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange
Act; provided, further,
that nothing herein shall be construed so as to require the Company to include
in such reports any information specified in Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X
..

 

Delivery of such reports, information and
documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s
receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information
contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including
the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the
Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates).

 

For so long as Parent is a Guarantor of the
Notes, this Indenture will permit the Company to satisfy its obligations under
this Section 1009 with respect to financial information relating to the
Company by furnishing financial information relating to Parent; provided that the same is accompanied by consolidating information
that explains in reasonable detail the differences between the information
relating to Parent, on the one hand, and the information relating to the
Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries on a standalone basis, on the other
hand.

compensation claims, or other Indebtedness with respect to reimbursement type

however, that upon the drawing of such
letters of credit or the incurrence of such Indebtedness, such obligations are
reimbursed within 30 days following such drawing or incurrence;

 

(7)                                 Indebtedness
arising from agreements of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary providing for
indemnification, adjustment of purchase price or similar obligations, in each
case, incurred or assumed in connection with the disposition of any business,
assets or a Subsidiary, other than guarantees of Indebtedness incurred by any
Person acquiring all or any portion of such business, assets or a Subsidiary
for the purpose of financing such acquisition; provided
that the maximum assumable liability in respect of all such Indebtedness shall
at no time exceed the gross proceeds including non-cash proceeds (the fair market
value of such non-cash proceeds being measured at the time received and without
giving effect to any subsequent changes in value) actually received by the
Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with such disposition;

 

(8)                                 Indebtedness
of the Company to a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that
any such Indebtedness owing to a non-Guarantor is subordinated in right of
payment to the Notes; provided further that
any subsequent issuance or transfer of any Capital Stock or any other event
which results in any such Restricted Subsidiary ceasing to be a Restricted
Subsidiary or any other subsequent transfer of any such Indebtedness (except to
the Company or another Restricted Subsidiary) shall be deemed, in each case to
be an incurrence of such Indebtedness not permitted by this clause (8);

 

(9)                                 Indebtedness
of a Restricted Subsidiary to the Company or another Restricted Subsidiary; provided that:

 

(A)                              any
such Indebtedness is made pursuant to an intercompany note and

 

77

 

(B)                                if
a Guarantor incurs such Indebtedness to a Restricted Subsidiary that is not the
Company or a Guarantor such Indebtedness is subordinated in right of payment to
the Guarantee of such Guarantor; provided further that
any subsequent transfer of any such Indebtedness (except to the Company or
another Restricted Subsidiary) shall be deemed, in each case to be an incurrence
of such Indebtedness not permitted by this clause (9);

 

(10)                           shares
of preferred stock of a Restricted Subsidiary issued to the Company or another
Restricted Subsidiary; provided that
any subsequent issuance or transfer of any Capital Stock or any other event
which results in any such Restricted Subsidiary ceasing to be a Restricted
Subsidiary or any other subsequent transfer of any such shares of preferred
stock (except to the Company or another Restricted Subsidiary) shall be deemed
in each case to be an issuance of such shares of preferred stock not permitted
by this clause (10);

 

(11)                           Hedging
Obligations (excluding Hedging Obligations entered into for speculative purposes)

or liquidation preference which, when aggregated with the principal amount and
liquidation preference of all other Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock and preferred
stock then outstanding and incurred pursuant to this clause (14), does not at
any one time outstanding exceed the sum of:

 

(x)                                   $125.0
million; and

other investments, payments or exchanges pursuant to Section 1010(b) or
to make Permitted Investments (other than Permitted Investments specified in
clauses (a) and (c) of the definition thereof);

 

provided, further, however, that
the aggregate amount of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock and preferred stock
incurred by Restricted Subsidiaries (other than Guarantors) pursuant to this
clause (14) may not exceed $50.0 million outstanding at any one time (it being
understood that any Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock
incurred pursuant to this clause (14) shall cease to be deemed incurred or outstanding
for purposes of this clause (14) but shall be deemed incurred for the purposes
of Section 1011(a) from and after the first date on which the Company
or such Restricted Subsidiary could have incurred such Indebtedness,
Disqualified Stock or preferred stock under Section 1011(a) without
reliance on this clause (14);

 

78

 

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

 

(B)                               any
guarantee by a Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness of the Company, provided that such guarantee is incurred in accordance with Section 1015;

 

(16)                           the
incurrence by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness, Disqualified
Stock or preferred stock which serves to refund or refinance any Indebtedness,
Disqualified Stock or preferred stock incurred as permitted under Section 1011
(a) and clauses (3) and (4) above, this clause (16) and clause
(17) below or any Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock issued to
so refund or refinance such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock
including additional Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock
incurred to pay premiums, defeasance costs and fees in connection therewith
(the “Refinancing Indebtedness”) prior to its respective maturity; provided,
however, that such Refinancing Indebtedness

 

(A)                              has
a Weighted Average Life to Maturity at the time such Refinancing Indebtedness
is incurred which is not less than the remaining Weighted Average Life to
Maturity of the Notes, in the case of Refinancing Indebtedness refinancing the
Senior Subordinated Notes, or in all other cases, of the Indebtedness,
Disqualified Stock or preferred stock being refunded or refinanced,

 

(B)                                to
the extent such Refinancing Indebtedness refinances (i) the Senior Subordinates
Notes and related guarantees, such Refinancing Indebtedness is pari passu or subordinated in right of payment to the Notes
and Guarantees, (ii) Indebtedness subordinated or pari passu in
right of payment to the Notes or any Guarantee of the Notes (other than the
Senior Subordinated Notes or related guarantees), such Refinancing Indebtedness
is subordinated or pari passu in
right of payment to the Notes or such Gaurantee at least to the same extent as
the Indebtedness being refinanced or refunded or (iii) Disqualified Stock
or preferred stock, such Refinancing Indebtedness must be Disqualified Stock or
preferred stock, respectively, and

 

(C)                                shall
not include (x) Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock of a
Subsidiary that refinances Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock
of the Company, (y) Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock of

refinances Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock of an Unrestricted
Subsidiary;

 

(17)                           Indebtedness,
Disqualified Stock or preferred stock of Persons that are acquired by the
Company or any Restricted Subsidiary or merged into the Company or a Restricted
Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; provided that
such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock is not incurred in
contemplation of such acquisition or merger; provided
further that after giving effect to such acquisition or merger,
either

 

(A)                              the
Company would be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness
pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in Section 1011(a) or

 

(B)                                the
Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is greater than immediately prior to such acquisition
or merger;

 

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

 

79

 

(19)                           Indebtedness
of Foreign Subsidiaries in an aggregate amount not to exceed $15.0 million
at any time outstanding; provided
that Indebtedness under this clause (19) may be incurred under any Credit
Facility;

 

(20)                           Indebtedness
of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary supported by a letter of credit
issued pursuant to the Credit Agreement, in a principal amount not in excess of
the stated amount of such letter of credit; and

 

(21)                           Indebtedness
of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary consisting of (i) the financing
of insurance premiums or (ii) take-or-pay obligations contained in supply
arrangements, in each case, in the ordinary course of business.

 

(c)                                 For
purposes of determining compliance with this Section 1011, in the event
that an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock meets the
criteria of more than one of the categories of permitted Indebtedness,
Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock described in clauses (1) or (3) through
(21) of this Section 1011(b) or is entitled to be incurred pursuant
to Section 1011(a), the Company shall, in its sole discretion, classify or
reclassify such item of Indebtedness in any manner that complies with this Section 1011
and such item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock shall be
treated as having been incurred pursuant to only one of such clauses of this Section 1011(b) or
pursuant to Section 1011(a) except as otherwise set forth in clause
(14) of this Section 1011(b). 
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 1011.

 

(d)                                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.

 

(e)                                 The
principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to refinance other Indebtedness,
if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced,
shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the
currencies in which such respective Indebtedness is denominated that is in
effect on the date of such refinancing.

 

(f)                                   The
Company shall not, and shall not permit any Guarantor to directly or
indirectly, incur any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) that is
subordinated or junior in right of payment to any Indebtedness of the Company
or such Guarantor, as the case may be, unless such Indebtedness is expressly
subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee to
the extent in the same manner as such Indebtedness is subordinated in right of
payment to other Indebtedness of the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may
be.

 

(g)                                (x) Unsecured
Indebtedness shall not be treated as subordinated or junior to secured Indebtedness
merely because it is unsecured and (y) Senior Indebtedness shall not be
treated as subordinated or junior to any other Senior Indebtedness merely
because it has a junior priority with respect to the same collateral.

 

SECTION 1012.                                 Limitation
on Liens.

 

The Company shall not, and shall not permit
any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, create, incur, assume or otherwise cause
or suffer to exist or become effective any Lien that secures obligations under
any Indebtedness or any related Guarantees (the “Initial Lien”) of any kind
upon any of their property or assets, now owned or hereafter acquired, except:

 

80

 

(1)                                  in
the case of Initial Liens on any Collateral, any Initial Lien if (i) such
Initial Lien expressly has Junior Lien Priority on the Collateral relative to
the Notes; or (ii) such Initial Lien is a Permitted Lien; and

 

(2)                                  in
the case of any other asset or property, any Initial Lien if (i) the Notes
are equally and ratably secured with (or on a senior basis to, in the case such
Initial Lien secures any Subordinated Indebtedness) the obligations secured by
such Initial Lien or (ii) such Initial Lien is a Permitted Lien.

 

Any Lien created for the benefit of the
Holders pursuant to clause (2) of the preceding paragraph shall
provide by its terms that such Lien shall be automatically and unconditionally
released and discharged upon the release and discharge of the Initial Lien,
which release and discharge in the case of any sale of any such asset or property
shall not affect any Lien that the Notes Collateral Agent may have on the
proceeds from such sale.

 

SECTION 1013.                                 Limitations
on Transactions with Affiliates.

 

(a)                                  The
Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, make any
payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its
properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into
or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan,
advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Company
(each of the foregoing, an “Affiliate Transaction”)  involving
aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $5.0 million, unless:

 

(1)                                  such
Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are not materially less favorable to the
Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been
obtained in a comparable transaction by the Company or such Restricted
Subsidiary with an unrelated Person; and

 

(2)                                  the
Company delivers to the Trustee with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or
series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate payments or
consideration in excess of $10.0 million, a resolution adopted by the majority
of the Board of Directors approving such Affiliate Transaction and set forth in
an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies
with clause (1) above.

 

(b)                                 The
foregoing provisions will not apply to the following:

disinterested members of the Board of Directors;

 

(4)                                  the
payment of reasonable and customary fees paid to, and indemnities provided on behalf
of, officers, directors, employees or consultants of the Company, any of its
direct or indirect parents or any Restricted Subsidiary;

 

(5)                                  payments
by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary to Kohlberg Kravis Roberts &
Co. L.P., and its Affiliates made for any financial advisory, financing,
underwriting or placement services or in respect of other investment banking
activities, including, without limitation, in connection with acquisitions or
divestitures which payments are approved by a majority of the Board of
Directors of the Company in good faith;

 

(6)                                  transactions
in which the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, delivers
to the Trustee a letter from an Independent Financial Advisor stating that such
transaction is fair to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from a
financial point of view or meets the requirements of Section 1013(a)(1);

 

81

 

(7)                                  payments
or loans (or cancellation of loans) to employees or consultants of the Company,
any of its direct or indirect parents or any Restricted Subsidiary which are
approved by a majority of the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith;

 

(8)                                  any
agreement as in effect as of the Issue Date (including the Forward Purchase Contract),
or any amendment thereto (so long as any such amendment is not disadvantageous
to the holders in any material respect);

 

(9)                                  the
existence of, or the performance by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries
of its obligations under the terms of, any stockholders agreement (including
any registration rights agreement or purchase agreement related thereto) to
which it is a party as of the Issue Date and any similar agreements which it
may enter into thereafter; provided, however, that the existence of, or the performance by the
Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of obligations under any future amendment
to any such existing agreement or under any similar agreement entered into
after the Issue Date shall only be permitted by this clause (9) to the
extent that the terms of any such amendment or new agreement are not otherwise
disadvantageous to the Holders in any material respect;

 

(10)                            the

in each case in the ordinary course of business and otherwise in compliance
with the terms of this Indenture which are fair to the Company and the
Restricted Subsidiaries, in the reasonable determination of the Board of
Directors of the Company or the senior management thereof, or are on terms at
least as favorable as might reasonably have been obtained at such time from an
unaffiliated party;

 

(12)                            the

(13)                            sales
of accounts receivable, or participations therein, in connection with any Receivables

on Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries.

or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired;

 

(6)           contracts for the
sale of assets, including, without limitation, customary restrictions with

renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are,
in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company no more
restrictive with respect to such encumbrance and other restrictions than those
prior to such amendment, modification, restatement, renewal, increase,
supplement, refunding, replacement or refinancing; and

 

(13)         restrictions created
in connection with any Receivables Facility that, in the good faith determination
of the Board of Directors of the Company, are necessary or advisable to effect
such Receivables Facility.

 

SECTION 1015.           Limitation on Guarantees of Indebtedness by Restricted
Subsidiaries.

 

(a)           The Company shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary
that is a Domestic Subsidiary, other than a Guarantor or a special-purpose
Restricted Subsidiary formed in connection with Receivables Facilities, to
guarantee the payment of any Indebtedness of the Company or any other Guarantor
unless:

 

(1)           such Restricted
Subsidiary simultaneously executes and delivers supplemental indentures to this
Indenture providing for a guarantee of payment of the Notes by such Restricted
Subsidiary, except if such Indebtedness is by its express terms subordinated in
right of payment to the Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee of the Notes, any
such guarantee of such Restricted Subsidiary with respect to such Indebtedness
shall be subordinated in right of payment to such Restricted Subsidiary’s
Guarantee with respect to the 

 

83

 

Notes
substantially to the same extent as such Indebtedness is subordinated in right
of payment to the Notes;

 

(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 Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary as a result
of any payment by such Restricted Subsidiary under its guarantee; and

 

(3)           such Restricted
Subsidiary shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect
that

 

(A)          such Guarantee of the
Notes has been duly executed and authorized, and

 

(B)           such Guarantee of
the Notes constitutes a valid, binding and enforceable obligation of such
Restricted Subsidiary, except insofar as enforcement thereof may be limited by
bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws (including, without limitation, all laws
relating to fraudulent transfers) and except insofar as enforcement thereof is
subject to general principles of equity;

 

provided that this Section 1015(a) shall
not be applicable to any guarantee of any Restricted Subsidiary

 

(x)            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; or

 

(y)           of
Senior Indebtedness and any refunding, refinancing or replacement thereof, in
each case to the extent it is not incurred pursuant to a registered offering of
securities under the Securities Act or a private placement of securities
(including under Rule 144A) pursuant to an exemption from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act, which private placement provides for
registration rights under the Securities Act.

 

(b)           Notwithstanding the foregoing and the other provisions of
this Indenture, any Guarantee by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Notes shall
provide by its terms that it shall be automatically and unconditionally
released and discharged:

 

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

 

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

 

(3)           if such Subsidiary
Guarantor is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or otherwise ceases to be
a Restricted Subsidiary, in each case in accordance with the provisions of this
Indenture, upon effectiveness of such designation or when it first ceases to be
a Restricted Subsidiary, respectively; or

 

(4)           if the Company
exercises its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option as
described under Article Thirteen hereof or if its obligations under this
Indenture are discharged in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.

 

(c)           Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture,
Parent may be released from all of its obligations under its Guarantee and
shall cease to be a Guarantor for all purposes under this Indenture, including
without limitation Article Twelve, at the option of the Company and Parent
at any time following the Issue Date.

SECTION 1016.           [INTENTIONALLY DELETED]

 

SECTION 1017.           Change of Control.

 

(a)           If a Change of Control occurs, the Company 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 to the date of purchase, subject to the right of Holders of record on
the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest
Payment Date.  Within 30 days following
any Change of Control, the Company shall send notice of such Change of Control
Offer by first class mail, with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder to the
address of such Holder appearing in the Note Register with a copy to the
Trustee or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of DTC, with the following
information:

 

(1)           a Change of Control
Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 1017 and that all Notes
properly tendered pursuant to such Change of Control Offer will be accepted for
payment;

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

(6)           Holders will be
entitled to withdraw their tendered Notes and their election to require the
Company to purchase such Notes, provided that
the Paying Agent receives, not later than the close of business on the last day
of the Change of Control Offer period, a telegram, telex, 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 his tendered Notes and his election to have such Notes purchased;

 

(7)           if such notice is
mailed prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control, stating that the Change
of Control Offer is conditional on the occurrence of such Change of Control;
and

 

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

 

(b)           While the Notes are in global form and the Company makes
an offer to purchase all of the Notes pursuant to the Change of Control Offer,
a Holder may exercise its option to elect for the purchase of the Notes through
the facilities of Depositary, Euroclear and Clearstream Banking, subject to
their rules and regulations.

 

(c)           Prior to complying with the provisions of this Section 1017,
but in any event within 30 days following a Change of Control, the Company
shall either repay all its outstanding Senior Indebtedness that prohibits it
from repurchasing Notes in a Change of Control Offer or obtain the requisite
consents, if any, under any outstanding Senior Indebtedness in each case
necessary to permit the repurchase of the Notes required by this Section 1017,
provided that the failure to repay such
Indebtedness or obtain such consent shall not affect the obligation to make a
Change of Control Offer.

 

85

 

(d)           The Company 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 Indenture applicable to a Change of Control
Offer made by the Company 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.

 

(e)           The Company shall comply with the requirements of Section 14(e) under
the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to
the extent such laws or regulations are applicable in connection with the
repurchase of the Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer.  To the extent that the provisions of any
securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Indenture,
the Company 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.

 

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

 

(1)           accept for payment
all Notes 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 Officers’ Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof have
been tendered to and purchased by the Company.

 

(g)           The Paying Agent shall promptly mail to each Holder the
Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly
authenticate and mail to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to
any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided,
that each such new Note shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral
multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. 
The Company shall publicly announce the results of the Change of Control
Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

 

SECTION 1018.           Asset Sales.

 

(a)           The Company shall not, and shall not permit Holdings or
any Restricted Subsidiary to, cause, make or suffer to exist an Asset Sale of
any assets that do not constitute ABL Collateral, unless:

 

(1)           Holdings, the
Company 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 Company) of the assets sold or otherwise
disposed of;

 

(2)           except in the case
of a Permitted Asset Swap, at least 75% of the consideration therefor received
by Holdings, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is
in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents;

 

(3)           to the extent that
any consideration received by Holdings, the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary
in such Asset Sale constitute securities or other assets that constitute
Collateral, such securities or other assets, including the assets of any Person
that becomes a Guarantor as a result of such transaction, are concurrently with
their acquisition added to the Collateral securing the Notes; and

 

(4)           the Net Proceeds
from any such Asset Sale of Notes Collateral is paid directly by the purchaser
thereof to the Notes Collateral Agent to be held in trust in an Asset Sale
Proceeds Account for application in accordance with this Section 1018.

 

86

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of the
above paragraph, Holdings, the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries shall
not be required to cause any Net Proceeds to be held in an Asset Sale Proceeds
Account in accordance with clause (4) of the above paragraph except
to the extent the aggregate Net Proceeds from all Asset Sales of Notes
Collateral which are not held in an Asset Sale Proceeds Account, or have not
been previously applied in accordance with the provisions of the following
paragraphs relating to the application of Net Proceeds from Asset Sales of
Notes Collateral, exceeds $5.0 million.

 

Within 365 days after Holdings’, the Company’s
or a Restricted Subsidiary’s receipt of the Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale
covered by this clause (a), Holdings, the Company or such Restricted
Subsidiary, at its option, may apply the Net Proceeds from such Asset Sale:

 

(1)           to
make one or more offers to the Holders of the Notes (and, at the option of the
Company, the holders of Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations) to purchase Notes
(and such Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations) pursuant to and subject to the
conditions contained this Indenture (each, an “Asset Sale Offer”); provided,
however, that in connection with
any prepayment, repayment or purchase of Indebtedness pursuant to this
clause (1), Holdings, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary shall
permanently retire such Indebtedness and shall cause the related loan
commitment (if any) to be permanently reduced in an amount equal to the principal
amount so prepaid, repaid or purchased; provided
further that if Holdings, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary
shall so reduce any Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations, the Company shall
equally and ratably reduce Indebtedness under the Notes by making an offer to
all Holders of notes to purchase at a purchase price equal to 100% of the
principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and additional
interest, if any, the pro rata principal amount of the Notes, such offer to be
conducted in accordance with the procedures set forth below for an Asset Sale
Offer but without any further limitation in amount;

 

(2)           to
an investment in (a) any one or more businesses; provided that such Investment in any
business is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock and results in the
Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, owning an amount of the
Capital Stock of such business such that it constitutes a Restricted
Subsidiary, (b) capital expenditures or (c) acquisitions of other assets,
in each of (a), (b) and (c), used or useful in a Similar Business; provided, further,
that such investment is concurrently added to the Notes Collateral securing the
Notes;

 

(3)           to
an Investment in (a) any one or more businesses, provided that
such investment in any business is in the form of the acquisition of Capital
Stock and results in the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may
be, owning an amount of the Capital Stock of such business such that it
constitutes a Restricted Subsidiary, (b) properties or (c) other
assets that, in each of (a), (b) and (c) replace the businesses,
properties and assets that are the subject of such Asset Sale; provided further that such Investment is concurrently added
to the Notes Collateral securing the Notes; or

 

(4)           to
the extent such Net Proceeds are not from Asset Sales of Collateral, to
permanently reduce Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a
Guarantor, other than Indebtedness owed to the Company, a Guarantor or another
Restricted Subsidiary.

 

Any Net Proceeds from the Asset Sales covered by
this clause (a) that are not invested or applied as provided and
within the time period set forth in the first sentence of the immediately
preceding paragraph shall be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds.”  When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds
exceeds $15.0 million, the Company shall make an Asset Sale Offer to all
Holders, and, if required by the terms of any Other Pari Passu Lien
Obligations, to the holders of such Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations, to
purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes and such Other Pari Passu Lien
Obligations, that are $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, if any, to the date fixed for the closing of such offer,
in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture.  The Company shall commence an Asset Sale
Offer with respect to Excess Proceeds within ten business days after the date
that Excess Proceeds exceeds $15.0 million by mailing the notice required
pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, with a copy to the Trustee.  To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes
and such Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale
Offer is less 

 

87

 

than the Excess Proceeds,
the Company may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for general corporate purposes,
subject to other covenants contained in this Indenture.  If the aggregate principal amount of Notes or
the Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations surrendered by such holders thereof
exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes and
such Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations to be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the accreted value or principal
amount of the Notes or such Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations tendered.  Upon completion of any such Asset Sale Offer,
the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero.  After the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary
has applied the Net Proceeds from any Asset Sale of any Notes Collateral as
provided in, and within the time periods required by, this paragraph (a),
the balance of such Net Proceeds, if any, from such Asset Sale of Notes
Collateral shall be released by the Notes Collateral Agent to the Company or
such Restricted Subsidiary for use by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary
for any purpose not prohibited by the terms of this Indenture.

 

(b)           The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted
Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly consummate an Asset Sale of ABL
Collateral unless:

 

(1)           the
Company 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 Company) of the assets sold or otherwise
disposed of;

 

(2)           except
in the case of a Permitted Asset Swap, at least 75% of the consideration
therefor received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may
be, is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents; and

 

(3)           to
the extent that any consideration received by the Company and the Restricted
Subsidiaries in such Asset Sale constitute securities or other assets that
constitute Collateral, such securities or other assets, including the assets of
any Person that becomes a Guarantor as a result of such transaction, are
concurrently with their acquisition added to the Collateral securing the Notes.

 

Within 365 days after the Company’s or
Restricted Subsidiary’s receipt of the Net Proceeds from such Asset Sale, the
Company or such Restricted Subsidiary may at its option do any one or more of
the following:

 

(1)           permanently
reduce (x) any Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement or any Indebtedness
of the Company or a Guarantor that in each case is secured by a Lien on the ABL
Collateral that is prior to the Lien on the ABL Collateral in favor of Holders
or (y) any Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a
Subsidiary Guarantor (and, in the case of revolving obligations under
clauses (x) or (y), to correspondingly reduce commitments with
respect thereto), in each case other than Indebtedness owed to the Company or a
Subsidiary of the Company;

 

(2)           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 Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, as the
case may be, owning an amount of the Capital Stock of such business such that
it constitutes a Restricted Subsidiary, (b) capital expenditures or (c) acquisitions
of other assets, in each of (a), (b) and (c), used or useful in a Similar
Business; provided, further,
that such investment is concurrently added to the Collateral securing the
Notes; and/or

 

(3)           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 Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may
be, owning an amount of the Capital Stock of such business such that it constitutes
a Restricted Subsidiary, (b) properties or (c) other assets that, in
each of (a), (b) and (c) replace the businesses, properties and
assets that are the subject of such Asset Sale; provided,
further, that such investment is concurrently added to the Collateral securing
the Notes.

 

Any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale of ABL
Collateral that are not invested or applied as provided and within the time
period set forth in the first sentence of the immediately preceding paragraph
shall be deemed to constitute “Excess ABL Proceeds.”  When the aggregate amount of Excess ABL
Proceeds exceeds 

 

88

 

$15.0 million, the
Company shall make an offer to all Holders, and, if required by the terms of
any Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations, to the holders of such Other Pari Passu
Lien Obligations (an “ABL Asset Sale Offer”), to purchase the maximum principal
amount of Notes and such Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations, that is $2,000 or
an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof that may be purchased out of
the Excess ABL Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of
the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the
date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance with the procedures set
forth in this Indenture.  The Company
shall commence an ABL Asset Sale Offer with respect to Excess ABL Proceeds
within ten business days after the date that Excess ABL Proceeds exceeds
$15.0 million by mailing the notice required pursuant to the terms of this
Indenture, with a copy to the Trustee. 
To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes and such Other Pari
Passu Lien Obligations tendered pursuant to an ABL Asset Sale Offer is less
than the Excess ABL Proceeds, the Company may use any remaining Excess ABL
Proceeds for general corporate purposes, subject to other covenants contained
in this Indenture.  If the aggregate principal
amount of Notes or the Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations surrendered by such
holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess ABL Proceeds, the Trustee shall
select the Notes and such Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations to be purchased on
a pro rata basis based on the accreted
value or principal amount of the Notes or such Other Pari Passu Lien
Obligations tendered.  Upon completion of
any such ABL Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess ABL Proceeds shall be reset
at zero.

 

(c)           Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds pursuant
to clause (b) of this Section 1018, the Company or the
applicable Restricted Subsidiary 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.

 

(d)           For the purposes of this Section 1018, any sale by
Holdings, the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Capital Stock of the
Company or a Restricted Subsidiary that owns assets constituting Notes Collateral
or ABL Collateral shall be deemed to be sale of such Notes Collateral or ABL
Collateral (or, in the event of a Restricted Subsidiary that owns assets that
include any combination of Notes Collateral and ABL Collateral a separate sale
of each of such Notes Collateral and ABL Collateral).  In the event of any such sale (or a sale of
assets that includes any combination of Notes Collateral and ABL Collateral),
the proceeds received by Holdings, the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries
in respect of such sale shall be allocated to the Notes Collateral and ABL
Collateral in accordance with their respective fair market values, which shall
be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company or, at the Company’s
election, an independent third party.  In
addition, for purposes of this Section 1018, any sale by the Company or
any Restricted Subsidiary of the Capital Stock of any Person that owns only ABL
Collateral shall not be subject to paragraph (a) above, but rather
shall be subject to paragraph (b) above.

 

(e)           For purposes of this Section 1018, the following are
deemed to be cash or Cash Equivalents:

 

(1)           any
liabilities (as shown on the Company’s, or such Restricted Subsidiary’s, most
recent balance sheet or in the notes thereto) of the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary that have Pari Passu Lien Priority or superior Lien priority on the
Collateral relative to the Notes, that are assumed by the transferee of any
such assets and for which the Company and all Restricted Subsidiaries have been
validly released by all creditors in writing;

 

(2)           any
securities received by the Company, a Guarantor or such Restricted Subsidiary
from such transferee that are converted by the Company or such Restricted
Subsidiary into cash (to the extent of the cash received) within 180 days
following the closing of such Asset Sale; and

 

(3)           any
Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Company or any 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 (3) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed the
greater of (x) $50.0 million and (y) 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.

 

89

 

(f)            The Company 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 or ABL Asset Sale
Offer.  To the extent that the provisions
of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this
Indenture, the Company 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.  If
less than all of the Notes or such Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations are to be
redeemed, Section 1107 shall apply.

 

SECTION 1019.           Waiver of Certain Covenants.

 

The Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries may omit
in any particular instance to comply with any term, provision or condition set
forth in or Sections 1004 through 1008, inclusive, if before or after the time
for such compliance the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Notes, by Act of such Holders, waive such compliance in such
instance with such term, provision or condition, but no such waiver shall
extend to or affect such term, provision or condition except to the extent so expressly
waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the
Company and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such term, provision or
condition shall remain in full force and effect.

 

SECTION 1020.           Further Assurances and After-Acquired Property.

 

(a)           The Company and each Guarantor shall execute any and all
further documents, financing statements, agreements and instruments, and take
all further action that may be required under applicable law, or that the Notes
Collateral Agent may reasonably request, in order to grant, preserve, protect
and perfect the validity and priority of the security interests and Liens
created or intended to be created by the Security Documents in the
Collateral.  In addition, from time to
time, the Company will promptly secure the obligations under this Indenture,
Security Documents and Intercreditor Agreement by pledging or creating, or
causing to be pledged or created, perfected security interests and Liens with
respect to the Collateral.  Such security
interests and Liens will be created under the Security Documents and other
security agreements, mortgages, deeds of trust and other instruments and
documents in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, and the
Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Trustee all such instruments
and documents (including certificates, legal opinions, title insurance policies
and lien searches) as the Trustee shall reasonably request to evidence
compliance with this covenant.  The
Company agrees to provide such evidence as the Trustee shall reasonably request
as to the perfection and priority status of each such security interest and
Lien.

 

(b)           In furtherance
of the foregoing, promptly following the acquisition by the Company or any
Guarantor of any After-Acquired Property, the Company or such Guarantor shall
execute and deliver such mortgages, deeds of trust, security instruments,
financing statements and certificates and opinions of counsel as shall be
reasonably necessary to vest in the Notes Collateral Agent a perfected security
interest in such After-Acquired Property and to have such After-Acquired
Property added to the Notes Collateral or the ABL Collateral, as applicable,
and thereupon all provisions of this Indenture and the Security Documents
relating to the Notes Collateral or the ABL Collateral, as applicable, shall be
deemed to relate to such After-Acquired Property to the same extent and with
the same force and effect.

 

SECTION 1021.           Information Regarding Collateral.

 

(a)           The Company will furnish to the Notes
Collateral Agent, with respect to the Company or any Guarantor, prompt written
notice of any change in such Person’s (i) name, (ii) jurisdiction of
organization or formation, (iii) identity or corporate structure or (iv) Organizational
Identification Number.  The Company and
the Guarantors will agree not to effect or permit any change referred to in the
preceding sentence unless all filings have been made under the Uniform
Commercial Code or otherwise that are required in order for the Notes
Collateral Agent to continue at all times following such change to have a
valid, legal and perfected security interest in all the Collateral.  The Company also agrees promptly to notify
the Notes Collateral Agent if any material portion of the Collateral is
damaged, destroyed or condemned.

 

90

 

(b)           Each year, at the time of delivery of
the annual financial statements with respect to the preceding fiscal year, the
Company shall deliver to the Trustee a certificate of a financial officer
setting forth the information required pursuant to the schedules required by
the Security Documents or confirming that there has been no change in such
information since the date of the prior annual financial statements.

 

SECTION 1022.           Impairment of Security Interest.

 

Subject
to the rights of the holders of Permitted Liens, the Company will not, and will
not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, take or knowingly or
negligently omit to take, any action which action or omission would reasonably
be expected to have the result of materially impairing the security interest
with respect to the Collateral for the benefit of Noteholder Secured Parties,
subject to limited exceptions.  The
Company shall not amend, modify or supplement, or permit or consent to any
amendment, modification or supplement of, the Security Documents in any way
that would be adverse to the Holders of the Notes in any material respect,
except as permitted by Article Nine or Fourteen, the Security Documents or
the Intercreditor Agreement.

 

ARTICLE ELEVEN

REDEMPTION OF NOTES

 

SECTION 1101.           Right of Redemption.

 

(a)           Except as set forth below, the Notes are not redeemable at
the Company’s option until April 15, 2012.

days of the date of closing of each such Equity Offering.

 

(c)           Additionally, during any 12-month period commencing on the
Issue Date, the Company will be entitled at its option to redeem up to 10% of
the aggregate principal amount of the Notes issued under this Indenture at a redemption

relevant Interest Payment Date.  Notice

with a transaction (or series of related transactions) that constitute a Change
of Control may, at the Company’s option and discretion, be subject to one or
more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of an
Equity Offering or Change of Control, as the case may be.

Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice shall be
satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date and of
the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and shall deliver to the Trustee

redemption that relates to such Note shall state the portion of the principal
amount thereof that has been or is to be purchased or redeemed.

 

A new Note in principal amount equal to the
unpurchased or unredeemed portion of any Note purchased or redeemed in part
will be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the
original Note.  On and after the purchase
or Redemption Date, unless the Company defaults in payment of the purchase or
Redemption Price, interest shall cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof
purchased or called for redemption.

 

SECTION 1105.           Notice of Redemption.

 

Notice of redemption shall be given in the manner
provided for in Section 106 not less than 30 nor more than 45 days prior

for the principal amount thereof remaining unredeemed,

 

(5)           that on the
Redemption Date the Redemption Price (and accrued interest, if any, to the
Redemption Date payable as provided in Section 1107) will become due and
payable upon each such Note, or the portion thereof, to be redeemed, and that
interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date,

 

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

 

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

 

(8)           that Notes called

Notes pursuant to which the Notes are to be redeemed; and

 

(11)         any condition to such
redemption.

 

Notice of redemption of Notes to be redeemed at the
election of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company’s
request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company.

 

SECTION 1106.           Deposit of Redemption Price.

 

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

 

SECTION 1107.           Notes Payable on Redemption Date.

 

Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid,
the Notes so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and
payable at the Redemption Price therein specified (together with accrued interest,
if any, to the Redemption Date)(except as provided in Section 1101(e)),
and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment
of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Notes shall cease to bear
interest.  Upon surrender of any such
Note for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Note shall be paid by
the Company at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest, if any, to
the Redemption Date; provided, however, that installments of interest whose Stated Maturity
is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such
Notes, or one or more Predecessor Notes, registered as such at the close of
business on the relevant Record Dates according to their terms and the
provisions of Section 307.

 

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

 

93

 

SECTION 1108.           Notes Redeemed in Part.

 

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

 

ARTICLE TWELVE

GUARANTEES

 

SECTION 1201.           Guarantees.

 

Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally,
unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the Notes and obligations of the
Company hereunder and thereunder, and guarantees to each Holder of a Note
authenticated and delivered by the Trustee, and to the Trustee on behalf of
such Holder, that:  (a) the principal
of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Notes will be paid in full when
due, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise (including,
without limitation, the amount that would become due but for the operation of
the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Law),
together with interest on the overdue principal, if any, and interest on any
overdue interest, to the extent lawful, and all other obligations of the
Company to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder will be 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 of any such
other obligations, the same shall be paid in full when due or performed in
accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at Stated Maturity,
by acceleration or otherwise, subject, however, in the case of clauses (a) and
(b) above, to the limitation set forth in Section 1205 hereof.

 

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations
hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or
enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to
enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder with respect to any
provisions hereof or thereof, any release of any other Guarantor, the recovery
of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or any
other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable
discharge or defense of a Guarantor.

 

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

 

If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any
court or otherwise to return to the Company or any Guarantor, or any custodian,
trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the
Company or 

 

94

 

any Guarantor, any amount
paid by any of them to the Trustee or such Holder, the Guarantee of each of the
Guarantors, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full
force and effect.  Each Guarantor further
agrees that, as between each Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders and
the Trustee on the other hand, (x) subject to this Article Twelve,
the Maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as
provided in Article Five hereof for the purposes of the Guarantee of such
Guarantor notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing
such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in
the event of any acceleration of such obligation as provided in Article Five
hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith
become due and payable by each Guarantor for the purpose of the Guarantee of
such Guarantor.

 

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

 

SECTION 1202.           Severability.

 

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

 

SECTION 1203.           Restricted Subsidiaries.

 

(a)              The Company
shall cause any Restricted Subsidiary required to guarantee payment of the
Notes pursuant to the terms and provisions of Section 1015 to (i) execute
and deliver to the Trustee any amendment or supplement to this Indenture in
accordance with the provisions of Article Nine of this Indenture pursuant
to which such Restricted Subsidiary shall guarantee all of the obligations on
the Notes, whether for principal, premium, if any, interest (including interest
accruing after the filing of, or which would have accrued but for the filing
of, a petition by or against the Company under Bankruptcy Law, whether or not
such interest is allowed as a claim after such filing in any proceeding under
such law) and other amounts due in connection therewith (including any fees, expenses and
indemnities), on a senior secured basis, (ii) deliver to such Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Trustee to the effect that
such amendment or supplement has been duly executed and delivered by such
Restricted Subsidiary and is in compliance with the terms of this Indenture and
(iii) execute and deliver a supplement or such comparable documentation to
become a Grantor or Pledgor to the Security Agreement, Pledge Agreement and the
other Security Documents and to take all actions to cause the Lien created by
the Security Documents to be duly perfected to the extent required by such
agreement.  Upon the execution of any
such amendment or supplement, the obligations of the Guarantors and any such
Restricted Subsidiary under their respective Guarantees shall become joint and
several and each reference to the “Guarantor” in this Indenture shall, subject to Section 1208,
be deemed to refer to all Guarantors, including such Restricted
Subsidiary.  Such Guarantee shall be
released in accordance with Section 803 and Section 1015(b).

 

SECTION 1204.           Ranking of Guarantee.

 

The Guarantee issued by any Guarantor shall be a
senior obligation of such Guarantor and will be secured by a
first-priority lien on the Notes Collateral owned by such Guarantor and by a
second-priority lien on the ABL Collateral owned by such Guarantor.  The Guarantees shall: (a) rank equally
in right of payment with all existing and future Senior Indebtedness of the
Guarantor, (b) be senior in right of payment to all existing and future Subordinated
Indebtedness of each Guarantor, (c) be effectively senior to the guarantee
of the Convertible Notes and any future Third Lien Indebtedness by such
Guarantor to the extent of the value of the Collateral, (d) be effectively
senior to the guarantee of the Credit Agreement by such Guarantor to the extent
of the value of the Notes Collateral 

 

95

 

owned by such Guarantor, (e) be
effectively subordinated to the guarantee of such Guarantor under the Credit
Agreement to the extent of the value of the ABL Collateral owned by such
Guarantor and (f) be structurally subordinated to Indebtedness and other
liabilities of Subsidiaries of such Guarantor that do not Guarantee the Notes.

 

SECTION 1205.           Limitation of Guarantors’ Liability.

 

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

 

SECTION 1206.           Contribution.

 

In order to provide for just and equitable
contribution among the Guarantors, the Guarantors agree, inter se, that in the
event any payment or distribution is made by any Guarantor (a “Funding
Guarantor”) under a Guarantee, such Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a
contribution from all other Guarantors in a pro rata amount based on the
Adjusted Net Assets (as defined below) of each Guarantor (including the Funding
Guarantor) for all payments, damages and expenses incurred by that Funding
Guarantor in discharging the Company’s obligations with respect to the Notes or
any other Guarantor’s obligations with respect to the Guarantee of such
Guarantor.  “Adjusted Net Assets” of such
Guarantor at any date shall mean the lesser of (x) the amount by which the
fair value of the property of such Guarantor exceeds the total amount of
liabilities, including, without limitation, contingent liabilities (after
giving effect to all other fixed and contingent liabilities incurred or assumed
on such date), but excluding liabilities under the Guarantee of such Guarantor
at such date and (y) the amount by which the present fair salable value of
the assets of such Guarantor at such date exceeds the amount that will be
required to pay the probable liability of such Guarantor on its debts (after
giving effect to all other fixed and contingent liabilities incurred or assumed
on such date), excluding debt in respect of the Guarantee of such Guarantor, as
they become absolute and matured.

 

SECTION 1207.           Subrogation.

 

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

 

SECTION 1208.           Reinstatement.

 

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

 

SECTION 1209.           Release of a Guarantor.

 

Concurrently with the discharge of the Notes under Section 401,
the Legal Defeasance of the Notes under Section 1302 hereof, or the
Covenant Defeasance of the Notes under Section 1303 hereof, the Guarantors
shall be released from all their obligations under their Guarantees under this Article Twelve.  Any Guarantor shall be released from all its
obligations under its Guarantee in accordance with Section 803 and Section 1015(b).

 

96

 

SECTION 1210.           Benefits Acknowledged.

 

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

 

ARTICLE THIRTEEN

DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

 

SECTION 1301.           Company’s Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant
Defeasance.

 

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

 

SECTION 1302.           Legal Defeasance and Discharge.

 

Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 1301
of the option applicable to this Section 1302, each of the Company and the
Guarantors shall be deemed to have been discharged from its respective
obligations with respect to all Outstanding Notes on the date the conditions
set forth in Section 1304 are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”).  For this purpose, such Legal Defeasance means
that each of the Company and the Guarantors shall be deemed to have paid and
discharged the entire indebtedness represented by the Outstanding Notes, which
shall thereafter be deemed to be “Outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 1305
and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (A) and (B) below,
and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Notes and this
Indenture insofar as such Notes are concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense
of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same),
except for the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or
discharged hereunder: (A) the rights of Holders of Outstanding Notes to
receive payments in respect of the principal of (and premium, if any, on) and
interest on such Notes when such payments are due, solely out of the trust described
in Section 1304, (B) the Company’s obligations with respect to such
Notes under Sections 304, 305, 306, 1002 and 1003, (C) the rights, powers,
trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder, and the obligations of
each of the Company and the Guarantors in connection therewith and (D) this
Article Thirteen.  Subject to compliance
with this Article Thirteen, the Company may exercise its option under this
Section 1302 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 1303
with respect to the Notes.

 

SECTION 1303.           Covenant Defeasance.

 

Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 1301
of the option applicable to this Section 1303, each of the Company and the
Guarantors shall be released from its respective obligations under any covenant
contained in Sections 801, 802 and in Sections 1005, 1006, 1007, 1009 through
1022 with respect to the Outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions
set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the
Notes shall thereafter be deemed not to be “Outstanding” for the purposes of
any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or Act of Holders (and the
consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall
continue to be deemed “Outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder.  For this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance
means that, with respect to the Outstanding Notes, the Company or any
Guarantor, as applicable, 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 Sections 501(3),
501(4), 501(5) and 501(7) and, with respect to only any Significant
Subsidiary and not the Company, Section 501(6), but, except as specified
above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes shall be unaffected
thereby.

 

97

 

SECTION 1304.           Conditions to Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

 

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

 

(1)           The Company shall
irrevocably have deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee (or
another trustee satisfying the requirements of Section 608 who shall agree
to comply with the provisions of this Article Thirteen applicable to it)
as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the following payments,
specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to the benefit of
the Holders of such Notes; (A) cash in U.S. dollars, or (B) non-callable
Government Securities, or (C) a combination thereof, in such amounts as
will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of
independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof
delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by
the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee) to pay and discharge, the principal
of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Outstanding Notes on the Stated Maturity
(or Redemption Date, if applicable) of such principal (and premium, if any or,
interest due on the Notes; provided that
the Trustee shall have been irrevocably instructed to apply such cash or the proceeds
of such Government Securities to said payments with respect to the Notes.  Before such a deposit, the Company may give
to the Trustee, in accordance with Section 1103 hereof, a notice of its
election to redeem all of the Outstanding Notes at a future date in accordance
with Article Eleven hereof, which notice shall be irrevocable.  Such irrevocable redemption notice, if given,
shall be given effect in applying the foregoing;

 

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

 

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

 

(B)           since the issuance
of the Notes, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. Federal income tax
law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel
in the United States shall confirm that, subject to customary assumptions and
exclusions, the Holders of the Outstanding Notes will not recognize income,
gain or loss for U.S. Federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal
Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. Federal income tax on the same amounts,
in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such
Legal Defeasance had not occurred;

 

(3)           in the case of
Covenant Defeasance, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion
of Counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming
that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, the Holders of the
Outstanding 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
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 Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

 

(4)           no Default or Event
of Default (other than that resulting from borrowing funds to be applied to
make such deposit) 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 Credit Agreement or any other material
agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which, the Company or
any Guarantor is a party or by which the Company or any Guarantor is bound;

 

(6)           the Company shall
have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that, as of
the date of such opinion and subject to customary assumptions and exclusions
following the deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to the effect of any
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting
creditors’ rights generally under any applicable U.S. Federal or state law, and
that the 

 

98

 

Trustee
has a perfected security interest in such trust funds for the ratable benefit
of the Holders of the Outstanding Notes;

 

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

 

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

 

SECTION 1305.           Deposited Money and Government Securities to Be Held in
Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions.

 

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

 

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

 

Anything in this Article Thirteen to the
contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from
time to time upon Company Request any money or Government Securities held by it
as provided in Section 1304 which, in the opinion of a nationally
recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written
certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount
thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent
Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, as applicable, in accordance with this
Article.

 

SECTION 1306.           Reinstatement.

 

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

ARTICLE FOURTEEN

SECURITY

 

SECTION 1401.           Collateral and Security Documents.

 

(a)              The due and punctual payment
of the principal of and interest on the Notes when and as the same shall be due
and payable, whether on an Interest Payment Date, at maturity, by acceleration,
repurchase, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of
and interest on the Notes and performance of all other obligations of the
Company and the Guarantors to the Holders, the Trustee or the Notes Collateral
Agent under this Indenture, the Notes, the Intercreditor Agreement and the
Security Documents, according to the terms hereunder or thereunder, shall be
secured as provided in the Security Documents, which define the terms of the Liens
that secure the obligations, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor
Agreement.  The Trustee and the Company
hereby acknowledge and agree that the Notes Collateral Agent holds the
Collateral in trust for the benefit of the Noteholder Secured Parties, in each
case pursuant to the terms of the Security Documents and the Intercreditor
Agreement.  Each Holder, by accepting a
Note, consents and agrees to the terms of the Security Documents (including the
provisions providing for the possession, use, release and foreclosure of
Collateral) and the Intercreditor Agreement as the same may be in effect or may
be amended from time to time in accordance with their terms and this Indenture
and the Intercreditor Agreement, and authorizes and directs the Notes Collateral
Agent to enter into the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement and
to perform its obligations and exercise its rights thereunder in accordance
therewith; provided, however,
that if any of the provisions of the Security Documents limit, qualify or
conflict with the duties imposed by the provisions of the TIA, the TIA shall
control.  The Company shall deliver to
the Notes Collateral Agent copies of all documents pursuant to the Security Documents,
and will do or cause to be done all such acts and things as may be reasonably
required by the next sentence of this Section 1401, to assure and confirm
to the Notes Collateral Agent the security interest in the Collateral contemplated
hereby, by the Security Documents or any part thereof, as from time to time
constituted, so as to render the same available for the security and benefit of
this Indenture and of the Notes secured hereby, according to the intent and
purposes herein expressed.  The Company
shall, and shall cause the Subsidiaries of the Company to, use its commercially
reasonable efforts to take any and all actions reasonably required to cause the
Security Documents to create and maintain, as security for the Obligations, a
valid and enforceable perfected Lien and security interest in and on all of the
Collateral (subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement), in favor of
the Notes Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Noteholder Secured
Parties.  The Company shall, and shall
cause the Subsidiaries of the Company to, and each Subsidiary shall, make all
filings (including filings of continuation statements and amendments to
financing statements that may be necessary to continue the effectiveness of
such financing statements) and take all other actions as are necessary or
required by the Security Documents to maintain (at the sole cost and expense of
the Company and its Subsidiaries) the security interest created by the Security
Documents in the Collateral (other than with respect to any Collateral the
security interest in which is not required to be perfected under the Security
Documents) as a perfected security interest with the priority set forth in the
Intercreditor Agreement and subject only to Permitted Liens.

 

SECTION 1402.           Recordings and Opinions.

 

(a)           To the extent applicable, the Company will cause TIA
§ 313(b), relating to reports, TIA § 314(d), relating to the release
of property or securities subject to the Lien of the Security Documents and TIA
§ 314(b), to be complied with.

 

(b)           Any release of Collateral permitted by Section 1403
hereof will be deemed not to impair the Liens under this Indenture, the
Security Agreement, the Pledge Agreement and the other Security Documents in
contravention thereof.  Any certificate
or opinion required by TIA § 314(d) shall be made by an officer or
legal counsel, as applicable, of the Company except in cases where TIA
§ 314(d) requires that such certificate or opinion be made by an
independent Person, which Person will be an independent engineer, appraiser or
other expert selected by or reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee.

 

100

 

(c)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 1402,
the Company will not be required to comply with all or any portion of TIA
§ 314(d) if it reasonably determines that under the terms of TIA
§ 314(d) or any interpretation or guidance as to the meaning thereof
of the SEC and its staff, including “no action” letters or exemptive orders,
all or any portion of TIA § 314(d) is inapplicable to any release or
series of releases of Collateral. 
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company and the
Guarantors may, subject to the other provisions of this Indenture, among other
things, without any release or consent by the Noteholder Secured Parties, conduct
ordinary course activities with respect to the Collateral, including, without
limitation, (i) selling or otherwise disposing of, in any transaction or
series of related transactions, any property subject to the Lien of the
Security Documents that has become worn out, defective, obsolete or not used or
useful in the business;  (ii) abandoning,
terminating, canceling, releasing or making alterations in or substitutions of
any leases or contracts subject to the Lien of this Indenture or any of the
Security Documents; (iii) surrendering or modifying any franchise, license
or permit subject to the Lien of the Security Documents that it may own or under
which it may be operating; (iv) altering, repairing, replacing, changing
the location or position of and adding to its structures, machinery, systems,
equipment, fixtures and appurtenances; (v) granting a license of any
intellectual property; (vi) selling, transferring or otherwise disposing
of inventory in the ordinary course of business; (vii) collecting accounts
receivable in the ordinary course of business as permitted by Section 1018;
(viii) making cash payments (including for the repayment of Indebtedness
or interest) from cash that is at any time part of the Collateral in the
ordinary course of business that are not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture
and the Security Documents; and (ix) abandoning any intellectual property
that is no longer used or useful in the Company’s business.

 

SECTION 1403.           Release of Collateral.

 

(a)           Subject to Sections 1402(b) and
1404 hereof, Collateral may be released from the Lien and security interest
created by the Security Documents at any time or from time to time in
accordance with the provisions of the Security Documents, the Intercreditor
Agreement or as provided hereby.  The
Company and the Guarantors will be entitled to a release of property and other
assets included in the Collateral from the Liens securing the Notes and the
Guarantees, and the Trustee (subject to its receipt of an Officer’s Certificate
and Opinion of Counsel as provided below) shall release, or instruct the Notes
Collateral Agent to release, as applicable, the same from such Liens as the
Company’s sole cost and expense, under one or more of the following
circumstances:

 

(1)           to enable the
Company or any Guarantor to sell, exchange or otherwise dispose of any of the
Collateral to the extent not prohibited under Section 1018;

 

(2)           the release of
Excess ABL Proceeds or Excess Proceeds that remain unexpended after the
conclusion of an ABL Asset Sale Offer or Asset Sale Offer, as the case may be,
conducted in accordance with the terms of this Indenture;

 

(3)           in the case of a
Guarantor that is released from its Guarantee with respect to the Notes, the
release of the property and assets of such Guarantor;

 

(4)           pursuant to an
amendment or waiver in accordance with Article Nine of this Indenture; or

 

(5)           if the Notes have
been discharged or defeased pursuant to Article Four or Article Thirteen.

 

(b)           Upon receipt of an Officers’
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel certifying that all conditions precedent
under this Indenture and the Security Documents (and TIA Section 314(d)),
if any, to such release have been met and any necessary or proper instruments
of termination, satisfaction or release prepared by the Company, the Trustee
shall, or shall cause the Notes Collateral Agent to, execute, deliver or
acknowledge (at the Company’s expense) such instruments or releases to evidence
the release of any Collateral permitted to be released pursuant to this
Indenture or the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement.  Neither the Trustee nor the Notes Collateral
Agent shall be liable for any such release undertaken in good faith in reliance
upon any such Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel, and notwithstanding
any term hereof or in any Security Document to the contrary, the Trustee and
Notes Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to release any such
Lien and 

 

101

 

security interest, or execute and deliver any such
instrument of release, satisfaction or termination, unless and until it
receives such Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel.

 

SECTION 1404.           Certificates of the Trustee.

 

In the
event that the Company wishes to release Collateral in accordance with this
Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement at a time
when the Trustee is not itself also the Notes Collateral Agent and the Company
has delivered the certificates and documents required by the Security Documents
and Section 1403 hereof, if TIA § 314(d) is applicable to such
releases (the applicability of which will be established to the reasonable
satisfaction of the Trustee), the Trustee will determine whether it has
received all documentation required by TIA § 314(d) in connection
with such release (which determination may be based upon the Opinion of Counsel
hereafter described) and, based on an Opinion of Counsel pursuant to Section 102,
will deliver a certificate to the Notes Collateral Agent setting forth such
determination.  The Trustee, however,
shall have no duty to confirm the legality, genuineness, accuracy, contents or
validity of such documents (or any signature appearing therein), its sole duty
being to certify its receipt of such documents which, on their face (and
assuming that they are what they purport to be), conform to § 314(d) of
the TIA.

 

SECTION 1405.           Suits to Protect the Collateral.

 

Subject
to the provisions of Article Six hereof and the Intercreditor Agreement,
the Trustee in its sole discretion and without the consent of the Holders, on
behalf of the Holders, may or may direct the Notes Collateral Agent to take all
actions it deems necessary or appropriate in order to:

 

(a)           enforce any of the terms of the Security Documents; and

 

(b)           collect and receive any and all amounts payable in respect
of the obligations hereunder.

 

Subject
to the provisions of the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement,
the Trustee shall have power to institute and to maintain such suits and
proceedings as it may deem expedient to prevent any impairment of the
Collateral by any acts which may be unlawful or in violation of any of the Security
Documents or this Indenture, and such suits and proceedings as the Trustee, in
its sole discretion, may deem expedient to preserve or protect its interests
and the interests of the Holders in the Collateral (including power to
institute and maintain suits or proceedings to restrain the enforcement of or
compliance with any legislative or other governmental enactment, rule or
order that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid if the enforcement of,
or compliance with, such enactment, rule or order would impair the Lien on
the Collateral or be prejudicial to the interests of the Holders or the
Trustee). Nothing in this Section 1405 shall be considered to impose any
such duty or obligation to act on the part of the Trustee.

 

SECTION 1406.                                      Authorization
of Receipt of Funds by the Trustee Under the Security Documents.

 

Subject
to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Trustee is authorized to
receive any funds for the benefit of the Holders distributed under the Security
Documents, and to make further distributions of such funds to the Holders
according to the provisions of this Indenture.

 

SECTION 1407.           Purchase Protected.

 

In no
event shall any purchaser in good faith of any property purported to be released
hereunder be bound to ascertain the authority of the Notes Collateral Agent or
the Trustee to execute the release or to inquire as to the satisfaction of any
conditions required by the provisions hereof for the exercise of such authority
or to see to the application of any consideration given by such purchaser or
other transferee; nor shall any purchaser or other transferee of any property
or rights permitted by this Article Fourteen to be sold be under any
obligation to ascertain or inquire into the authority of the Company or the
applicable Guarantor to make any such sale or other transfer.

 

102

 

SECTION 1408.           Powers Exercisable by Receiver or
Trustee.

 

In case the Collateral shall be in the possession of
a receiver or trustee, lawfully appointed, the powers conferred in this Article Fourteen
upon the Company or a Guarantor with respect to the release, sale or other
disposition of such property may be exercised by such receiver or trustee, and
an instrument signed by such receiver or trustee shall be deemed the equivalent
of any similar instrument of the Company or a Guarantor or of any officer or officers
thereof required by the provisions of this Article Fourteen; and if the
Trustee shall be in the possession of the Collateral under any provision of
this Indenture, then such powers may be exercised by the Trustee.

 

SECTION 1409.           Release upon Termination of the
Company’s Obligations.

 

In the event that the Company delivers to the
Trustee, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to it, an Officers’
Certificate certifying that (i) payment in full of the principal of, together
with accrued and unpaid interest (including additional interest, if any) on,
the Notes and all other Obligations under this Indenture, the Guarantees and
the Security Documents that are due and payable at or prior to the time such
principal, together with accrued and unpaid interest, are paid or (ii) the
Company shall have exercised its Legal Defeasance option or its Covenant
Defeasance option, in each case in compliance with the provisions of Article Thirteen,
the Trustee shall deliver to the Company and the Notes Collateral Agent a
notice stating that the Trustee, on behalf of the Holders, disclaims and gives
up any and all rights it has in or to the Collateral (other than with respect
to funds held by the Trustee pursuant to Article Thirteen), and any rights
it has under the Security Documents, and upon receipt by the Notes Collateral
Agent of such notice, the Notes Collateral Agent shall be deemed not to hold a
Lien in the Collateral on behalf of the Trustee and shall do or cause to be
done all acts reasonably necessary to release such Lien as soon as is reasonably
practicable.

 

SECTION 1410.           Notes Collateral Agent.

 

(a)           The Trustee and each of the Holders
by acceptance of the Notes hereby designates and appoints the Notes Collateral
Agent as its agent under this Indenture, the Security Agreement, the Pledge
Agreement, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement and the
Trustee and each of the Holders by acceptance of the Notes hereby irrevocably
authorizes the Notes Collateral Agent to take such action on its behalf under
the provisions of this Indenture, the Security Agreement, the Pledge Agreement,
the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement and to exercise such
powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Notes
Collateral Agent by the terms of this Indenture, the Security Agreement, the
Pledge Agreement, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement,
together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  The Notes Collateral Agent agrees to act as
such on the express conditions contained in this Section 1410.  The provisions of this Section 1410 are
solely for the benefit of the Notes Collateral Agent and none of the Trustee,
any of the Holders nor the Company or any of the Guarantors shall have any
rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions contained herein
other than as expressly provided in Section 1403.  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary
contained elsewhere in this Indenture, the Security Agreement, the Pledge
Agreement, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, the Notes
Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly
set forth herein, nor shall the Notes Collateral Agent have or be deemed to
have any fiduciary relationship with the Trustee, any Holder or the Company or
any Guarantor, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties,
obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Indenture, the Security
Agreement, the Pledge Agreement, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor
Agreement or otherwise exist against the Notes Collateral Agent.  Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Indenture with reference
to the Notes Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other
implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any
applicable law.  Instead, such term is
used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect
only an administrative relationship between independent contracting
parties.  Except as expressly otherwise
provided in this Indenture, the Notes Collateral Agent shall have and may use
its sole discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising
any discretionary rights or taking or refraining from taking any actions which
the Notes Collateral Agent is expressly entitled to take or assert under this
Indenture, the Security Agreement, the Pledge Agreement, the Security Documents
and the Intercreditor Agreement, including the exercise of remedies pursuant to
Article Five, and any action so taken or not taken shall be deemed
consented to by the Trustee and the Holders.

 

103

 

(b)           The Notes Collateral Agent may
execute any of its duties under this Indenture, the Security Documents or the
Intercreditor Agreement by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact
and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to
such duties.  The Notes Collateral Agent
shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent,
employee or attorney-in-fact that it selects as long as such selection was made
without negligence or willful misconduct.

 

(c)           None of the Notes Collateral Agent or
any of its agents or employees shall (i) be liable for any action taken or
omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Indenture
or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own negligence or
willful misconduct) or under or in connection with the Security Agreement, the
Pledge Agreement, any Security Document or Intercreditor Agreement or the
transactions contemplated thereby (except for its own negligence or willful
misconduct), or (ii) be responsible in any manner to the Trustee or any
Holder for any recital, statement, representation, warranty, covenant or
agreement made by the Company or any Guarantor, contained in this or any Indenture,
or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or
provided for in, or received by the Notes Collateral Agent under or in
connection with, this or any other Indenture, the Security Agreement, the
Pledge Agreement, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement, or the
validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this or
any other Indenture, the Security Agreement, the Pledge Agreement, the Security
Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement, or for any failure of the Company or
any Guarantor or any other party to this Indenture, the Security Agreement, the
Pledge Agreement, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement to
perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder.  None of the Notes Collateral Agent or any of
its agents or employees shall be under any obligation to the Trustee or any
Holder to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of
the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this or any other Indenture, the
Security Agreement, the Pledge Agreement, the Security Documents or the
Intercreditor Agreement or to inspect the properties, books or records of the
Company or any Guarantor.

 

(d)           The Notes Collateral Agent shall be
entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing,
resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile,
telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed
by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the
proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel
(including, without limitation, counsel to the Company or any Guarantor),
independent accountants and other experts and advisors selected by the Notes
Collateral Agent.  The Notes Collateral
Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under
this or any other Indenture, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor
Agreement unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the
Trustee as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be
indemnified to its satisfaction by the Holders against any and all liability
and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to
take any such action.  The Notes
Collateral Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in
refraining from acting, under this or any other Indenture, the Security
Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement in accordance with a request or consent
of the Trustee and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant
thereto shall be binding upon all of the Holders.

 

(e)           The Notes Collateral Agent shall not
be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event
of Default, unless the Notes Collateral Agent shall have received written
notice from the Trustee or the Company referring to this Indenture, describing
such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of
default.”  The Notes Collateral Agent
shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may
be requested by the Trustee in accordance with Article Five (subject to Section 1410);
provided, however,
that unless and until the Notes Collateral Agent has received any such request,
the Notes Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such
action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or
Event of Default as it shall deem advisable.

 

(f)            The Bank of New York Mellon Trust
Company, N.A. and its Affiliates (and any successor Notes Collateral Agent and
its Affiliates) may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of,
accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any
kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting, or other business
with the Company and the Guarantors as though it was not the Notes Collateral
Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Trustee.  The Trustee and the Holders acknowledge that,
pursuant to such activities, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. or
its Affiliates (and any successor Notes Collateral Agent and its Affiliates)
may receive information regarding the Company and the Guarantors (including 

 

104

 

information that may be subject to
confidentiality obligations in favor of the Company and the Guarantors) and acknowledge
that the Notes Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to provide
such information to the Trustee or the Holders. 
Nothing herein shall impose or imply any obligation on the part of The
Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (or any successor Notes Collateral
Agent) to advance funds.

 

(g)           The Notes Collateral Agent may resign
at any time upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Trustee and the
Company, such resignation to be effective upon the acceptance of a successor
agent to its appointment as Notes Collateral Agent.  If the Notes Collateral Agent resigns under
this Indenture, the Trustee, subject to the consent of the Company (which shall
not be unreasonably withheld and which shall not be required during a
continuing Event of Default), shall appoint a successor Notes Collateral
Agent.  If no successor notes collateral
agent is appointed prior to the intended effective date of the resignation of
the Notes Collateral Agent (as stated in the notice of resignation), the Notes
Collateral Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Trustee, subject to the
consent of the Company (which shall not be unreasonably withheld and which
shall not be required during a continuing Event of Default), a successor notes
collateral agent.  If no successor notes
collateral agent is appointed and consented to by the Company pursuant to the
preceding sentence within thirty (30) days after the intended effective date of
resignation (as stated in the notice of resignation) the Notes Collateral Agent
shall be entitled to petition at the expense of the Company a court of
competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor. 
Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor notes collateral
agent hereunder, such successor notes collateral agent shall succeed to all the
rights, powers and duties of the retiring Notes Collateral Agent, and the term “Notes
Collateral Agent” shall mean such successor notes collateral agent, and the
retiring Notes Collateral Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as the Notes
Collateral Agent shall be terminated. 
After the retiring Notes Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder, the
provisions of this Section 1410 (and Section 1412) shall continue to
inure to its benefit and the retiring Notes Collateral Agent shall not by
reason of such resignation be deemed to be released from liability as to any
actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Notes Collateral
Agent under this Indenture.

 

(h)           The Trustee shall initially act as
Notes Collateral Agent and shall be authorized to appoint co-Notes Collateral
Agents as necessary in its sole discretion. 
Except as otherwise explicitly provided herein or in the Security
Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement, neither the Notes Collateral Agent
nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for
failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any
delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose
of any Collateral upon the request of any other Person or to take any other
action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof.  The Notes Collateral Agent shall be
accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the
exercise of such powers, and neither the Notes Collateral Agent nor any of its
officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible for any act or
failure to act hereunder, except for its own willful misconduct, gross negligence
or bad faith.

 

(i)            The Trustee, as such and as Notes
Collateral Agent, is authorized and directed to (i) enter into the
Security Agreement, the Pledge Agreement and the Security Documents, (ii) enter
into the Intercreditor Agreement, (iii) bind the Holders on the terms as
set forth in the Security Agreement, the Pledge Agreement and the Security
Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement and (iv) perform and observe its
obligations under the Security Agreement, the Pledge Agreement and the Security
Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement.

 

(j)            The Trustee agrees that it shall not
(and shall not be obliged to), and shall not instruct the Notes Collateral
Agent to, unless specifically requested to do so by a majority of the Holders,
take or cause to be taken any action to enforce its rights under this Indenture
or against the Company and the Guarantors, including the commencement of any
legal or equitable proceedings, to foreclose any Lien on, or otherwise enforce
any security interest in, any of the Collateral.

 

If at any time or times the Trustee shall receive (i) by
payment, foreclosure, set-off or otherwise, any proceeds of Collateral or any
payments with respect to the Obligations arising under, or relating to, this
Indenture, except for any such proceeds or payments received by the Trustee
from the Notes Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, or (ii) payments
from the Notes Collateral Agent in excess of the amount required to be paid to
the Trustee pursuant to Article Five, the Trustee shall promptly turn the
same over to the Notes Collateral Agent, in kind, and with such endorsements as
may be required to negotiate the same to the Notes Collateral Agent.

 

105

 

(k)           The Trustee is each Holder’s agent
for the purpose of perfecting the Holders’ security interest in assets which,
in accordance with Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code, can be
perfected only by possession.  Should the
Trustee obtain possession of any such Collateral, upon request from the
Company, the Trustee shall notify the Notes Collateral Agent thereof, and,
promptly upon the Notes Collateral Agent’s request therefor, shall deliver such
Collateral to the Notes Collateral Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral
in accordance with the Notes Collateral Agent’s instructions.

 

(l)            The Notes Collateral Agent shall
have no obligation whatsoever to the Trustee or any of the Holders to assure
that the Collateral exists or is owned by the Company and the Guarantors or is
cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered, or that the Notes
Collateral Agent’s Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully
created, perfected, protected, maintained or enforced or are entitled to any
particular priority, or to determine whether all of the Grantor’s property
constituting collateral intended to be subject to the Lien and security
interest of the Security Documents has been properly and completely listed or
delivered, as the case may be, or the genuineness, validity, marketability or
sufficiency thereof or title thereto, or to exercise at all or in any
particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to
continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or
available to the Notes Collateral Agent pursuant to this Indenture, any
Security Document or the Intercreditor Agreement, it being understood and
agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related
thereto, the Notes Collateral Agent may act in any manner it may deem
appropriate, in its sole discretion given the Notes Collateral Agent’s own
interest in the Collateral, and that the Notes Collateral Agent shall have no
other duty or liability whatsoever to the Trustee or any Holder as to any of
the foregoing.

 

(m)          If the Company (i) incurs any
obligations in respect of Lenders Debt at any time when no intercreditor
agreement is in effect or at any time when Indebtedness constituting Lenders
Debt entitled to the benefit of an existing Intercreditor Agreement is
concurrently retired, and (ii) delivers to the Notes Collateral Agent an
Officers’ Certificate so stating and requesting the Notes Collateral Agent to
enter into an intercreditor agreement (on substantially the same terms as the
Intercreditor Agreement) in favor of a designated agent or representative for
the holders of the Lenders Debt so incurred, the Notes Collateral Agent shall
(and is hereby authorized and directed to) enter into such intercreditor
agreement (at the sole expense and cost of the Company, including legal fees
and expenses of the Notes Collateral Agent), bind the Holders on the terms set
forth therein and perform and observe its obligations thereunder.

 

(n)           No provision of this Indenture, the
Security Agreement, the Pledge Agreement the Intercreditor Agreement or any
Security Document shall require the Notes Collateral Agent (or the Trustee) to
expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the
performance of any of its duties hereunder or thereunder or to take or omit to
take any action hereunder or thereunder or take any action at the request or
direction of Holders (or the Trustee in the case of the Notes Collateral Agent)
if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds
is not assured to it.

 

(o)           The Notes Collateral Agent (i) shall
not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it
reasonably believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers, or for any
error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it is
proved that the Notes Collateral Agent was grossly negligent in ascertaining
the pertinent facts, (ii) shall not be liable for interest on any money
received by it except as the Notes Collateral Agent may agree in writing with
the Company (and money held in trust by the Notes Collateral Agent need not be
segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law), and (iii) may
consult with counsel of its selection and the advice or opinion of such counsel
as to matters of law shall be full and complete authorization and protection
from liability in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered by it in
good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.  The grant of permissive rights or powers to
the Notes Collateral Agent shall not be construed to impose duties to act.

 

SECTION 1411.           Designations.

 

Except as provided in the next sentence, for
purposes of the provisions hereof and of the Intercreditor Agreement requiring
the Company to designate Indebtedness for the purposes of the terms “Lenders
Debt” and “Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations” or any other such designations
hereunder or under the Intercreditor Agreement, any such designation shall be
sufficient if the relevant designation is set forth in writing, signed on
behalf of 

 

106

 

the Company by an Officer and delivered to the
Trustee, the Notes Collateral Agent and the Bank Collateral Agent.  For all purposes hereof and the of
Intercreditor Agreement, the Company hereby designates the Obligations pursuant
to the Credit Agreement as “Lenders Debt.”

 

SECTION 1412.           Compensation
and Indemnification.

 

The Notes Collateral Agent shall be entitled to the
compensation and indemnification set forth in Section 607 (with the
references to the Trustee therein being deemed to refer to the Notes Collateral
Agent).

 

SECTION 1413.           Intercreditor
Agreement, Security Agreement, Pledge Agreement and Other Security Documents.

 

The Trustee and Notes Collateral Agent is each
hereby directed and authorized to execute and deliver the Intercreditor
Agreement, the Security Agreement, the Pledge Agreement and any other Security
Documents in which it is named as a party. 
It is hereby expressly acknowledged and agreed that, in doing so, the
Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent are not responsible for the terms or
contents of such agreements, or for the validity or enforceability thereof, or
the sufficiency thereof for any purpose. 
Whether or not so expressly stated therein, in entering into, or taking
(or forbearing from) any action under or pursuant to, the Intercreditor
Agreement, the Security Agreement, the Pledge Agreement or any other Security
Documents, the Trustee and Notes Collateral Agent each shall have all of the
rights, immunities, indemnities and other protections granted to it under this
Indenture (in addition to those that may be granted to it under the terms of
such other agreement or agreements).

(iv)    to seek the creation of,
or appointment to, any official committee representing creditors (or certain of

appointment of any professional person to serve in any capacity in any
Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or to support or object to any request for
compensation made by any professional person or others therein;

 

(vi)    to make, support or oppose
any request for order appointing a trustee or examiner in any Insolvency or
Liquidation Proceeding; or

or oppose any request for relief in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding
that it is permitted by law to make, support or oppose:

 

(x)           as
if it were a holder of unsecured claims; or

 

(y)           as to any matter
relating to any plan of reorganization or other restructuring or liquidation
plan or as to any matter relating to the administration of the estate or the disposition
of the case or proceeding (in each case set forth in this clause (vii) except
as set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement).

[REVERSE SIDE OF NOTE]

 

SEALY MATTRESS COMPANY

 

10.875% Senior Secured Note due 2016

 

1.             Principal and Interest; Subordination.

 

The Company will pay the principal of this
Note on April 15, 2016.

 

The Company promises to pay interest on the
principal amount of this Note on each Interest Payment Date, as set forth
below, at the rate of 10.875% per annum (subject to adjustment as provided
below).

 

Interest will be payable semi-annually (to
the Holders of record of the Notes (or any Predecessor Notes)) at the close of
business on April 1 or October 1 immediately preceding the Interest
Payment Date) on each Interest Payment Date, commencing October 1, 2009.

 

Interest on this Note will accrue from the
most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been
paid, from May 29, 2009; provided that,
if there is no existing default in the payment of interest and if this Note is
authenticated between a Regular Record Date referred to on the face hereof and
the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such
Interest Payment Date.  Interest will be
computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

 

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

 

2.             Method of Payment.

 

The Company will pay interest (except
defaulted interest) on the principal amount of the Notes on each April 15
and October 15 to the Persons who are Holders (as reflected in the Note
Register at the close of business on April 1 and October 1
immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date), in each case, even if the
Note is cancelled on registration of transfer or registration of exchange after
such Regular Record Date; provided that,
with respect to the payment of principal, the Company will make payment to the
Holder that surrenders this Note to any Paying Agent on or after April 15,
2016.

 

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

 

3.             Paying Agent and Note Registrar.

 

Initially, the Trustee will act as Paying
Agent and Note Registrar.  The Company
may change any Paying Agent or Note Registrar upon written notice thereto.  The Company, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate
of any of them may act as Paying Agent, Note Registrar or co-registrar.

 

4.             Indenture; Limitations.

 

The Company issued the Notes under an
Indenture dated as of May 29, 2009 (the “Indenture”), among the Company,
the Guarantors and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee
(the “Trustee”).  Capitalized terms
herein are used as defined in the Indenture unless otherwise indicated.  The terms of 

 

A-4

 

the Notes include those stated in the
Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture
Act.  The Notes are subject to all such
terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the Trust Indenture Act
for a statement of all such terms.  To
the extent permitted by applicable law, in the event of any inconsistency between
the terms of this Note and the terms of the Indenture, the terms of the
Indenture shall control.

 

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

 

5.             Redemption.

 

Optional Redemption.  Except as described below, the Notes are not
redeemable at the Company’s option until April 15, 2012.  From and after April 15, 2012, the
Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, upon not less than 30 nor
more than 60 days’ prior notice by first class mail, postage prepaid, with a

appearing in the Note Register at the Redemption Prices (expressed as
percentages of principal amount) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid
interest thereon, if any, to the applicable redemption date, subject to the
right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due
on the relevant Interest Payment Date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period
beginning on April 15 of each of the years indicated below:

In addition, prior to April 15, 2011,
the Company may, at its option, redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal
amount of Notes issued under the Indenture at a redemption price equal to
110.875% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid
interest thereon, if any, to the Redemption Date, subject to the right of
Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the
relevant Interest Payment Date, with the net proceeds of one or more Equity
Offerings of the Company or any direct or indirect parent of the Company to the
extent such net proceeds are contributed to the Company; provided that
at least 60% of the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Notes originally
issued under the Indenture remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence
of each such redemption; provided further that
each such redemption occurs within 90 days of the date of closing of each such
Equity Offering.

 

Additionally, during any 12-month period
commencing on the Issue Date, the Company will be entitled at its option to
redeem up to 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes at a redemption
price equal to 103.000% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued
interest thereon, if any, to the Redemption Date, subject to the right of
Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the
relevant Interest Payment Date.  Notice
of any such redemption must be mailed by first-class mail to each Holder’s
registered address, not less than 30 or more than 60 days prior to the
redemption date.

 

At any time prior to April 15, 2012, the
Company may also redeem all or a part of the Notes, upon not less than 30 nor
more than 60 days’ prior notice mailed by first-class mail to each Holder’s
registered address, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount
of notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, to the Redemption Date, subject to the rights of Holders of
Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest
Payment Date.

the Paying Agent will pay the money back to the Company at its written request.  After that, Holders entitled to the money

Documents, the Intercreditor Agreement or the Notes to, among other things,
cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency and make any change that does not adversely
affect the rights of any Holder.

 

12.           Restrictive Covenants.

in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be
immediately due and payable.  If a
bankruptcy or insolvency default with respect to the Company or any of its
Significant Subsidiaries occurs and is continuing, the Notes automatically
become immediately due and payable. 
Holders may not enforce the Indenture, the Security Documents, the
Intercreditor Agreement or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture.  The Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent
may require indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it before it enforces the
Indenture or the Notes.  Subject to

amount of the Outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any
trust or power.

under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the

FORM OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE

TO BE DELIVERED BY SUBSEQUENT GUARANTORS

 

SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE (this “Supplemental Indenture”), dated as of       , 200 , among (the “Guaranteeing Subsidiary”), a subsidiary of (or its permitted
successor), a [Delaware] corporation (the “Company”), the
Company, [Sealy Mattress Company] and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust
Company, N.A., as trustee and as collateral agent under the Indenture referred
to below (the “Trustee”).

 

W I T N E S S E T H

 

WHEREAS, the Company has heretofore executed
and delivered to the Trustee an indenture (the “Indenture”),
dated as of May 29, 2009 providing for the issuance of 10.875% Senior
Secured Notes due 2016 (the “Notes”);

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

2.             AGREEMENT TO GUARANTEE.  The Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby agrees as
follows:

 

(a)           The Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby becomes a
party to the Indenture as a Guarantor and as such will have all of the rights
and be subject to all of the obligations and agreements of a Guarantor under
the Indenture.  The Guaranteeing
Subsidiary agrees to be bound by all of the provisions of the Indenture applicable
to a Guarantor and to perform all of the obligations and agreements of a
Guarantor under the Indenture.

 

(b)           The Guaranteeing subsidiary agrees, on a
joint and several basis with all the existing Guarantors, to fully,
unconditionally and irrevocably Guarantee to each Holder of the Notes and the
Trustee the Obligations pursuant to Article Twelve of the Indenture of a
senior basis.

 

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

 

4.             NEW YORK LAW TO GOVERN.  SHALL BE GOVERNED AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

 

E-1

 

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

 

6.             EFFECT OF HEADINGS.  The Section headings herein are for
convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

 

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

 

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

      SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS CERTIFICATE
  SEALY CORPORATION
  TRANSFERABLE SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS FOR 8% SENIOR SECURED THIRD LIEN CONVERTIBLE NOTES DUE 2016
  THE OFFER EXPIRES AT 5:00 P.M., NEW YORK CITY TIME,
 ON JULY 2, 2009 UNLESS EXTENDED (THE "EXPIRATION DATE")    
    

IN
ORDER TO EXERCISE YOUR RIGHTS, YOU MUST COMPLETE THIS CARD AND RETURN IT TO THE SUBSCRIPTION AGENT. 

Dear
Shareholder: 

         You
are entitled to exercise the subscription rights (the "Rights") issued to you as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time on May 26, 2009, the record date for the offer, to
subscribe for the number of 8% Senior Secured Third Lien Convertible Notes due 2016 (the "Notes") issued by Sealy Corporation ("Sealy") and Sealy Mattress Company shown on this Subscription Rights
Certificate upon the terms and conditions specified in the Sealy Prospectus Supplement dated May 27, 2009, to the Prospectus dated April 9, 2009 (together, the "Prospectus"). A copy of
the Prospectus is included in the materials sent to you with this Rights Certificate. As a shareholder on the record date, you are receiving one Right for each share of Common Stock owned by you as of
the close of business on the record date. Every 13 Rights will allow the holder thereof to purchase one Note with a subscription price and an initial principal amount of $25.00 (the "Subscription
Price"). Each Note is convertible into 25 shares of Sealy's Common Stock ("Common Stock"), at a conversion price of $1.00 per share (the "Conversion Price"). To the extent you exercise your Rights in
increments of less than 13, the Rights that exceed the multiple of 13 will be returned to you, together with any subscription price relating to such excess, without deduction or interest. 

         In
order to exercise your Rights or the Rights of the beneficial owners on whose behalf you are acting, you must present to National City Bank, the subscription agent (the "Subscription
Agent"), by 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Expiration Date, either (i) a properly completed and executed Subscription Rights Certificate, with any required signature guarantees,
and full payment in an amount equal to the number of Notes subscribed for multiplied by the Subscription Price of $25.00, or (ii) a Notice of Guaranteed Delivery, guaranteeing delivery by
5:00 p.m. on the third business day after the Expiration Date of (a) a properly completed and executed Subscription Rights Certificate, with any required signature guarantees and
(b) full payment in an amount equal to the number of Notes subscribed for multiplied by the Subscription Price of $25.00. The Notice of Guaranteed Delivery must be received by 5:00 p.m.,
New York City time, on the Expiration Date. See "The Rights Offering—Method of Subscription—Exercise of Rights" and "The Rights Offering—Guaranteed Delivery
Procedures" in the Prospectus for more information. 

         You
are entitled to subscribe for additional Notes (up to the number of Notes for which you subscribed under your subscription privilege) at the same subscription price per Note if any
Notes are not purchased as of the expiration date by other holders of Rights under their subscription privileges. You must have subscribed for the maximum number of Notes permitted by your
subscription privilege in order to exercise your oversubscription privilege. Holders of Rights who submit oversubscription requests will receive their pro rata portion of the aggregate principal
amount of any unsubscribed Notes allocated to each such oversubscribing holder in proportion to the relative size of its oversubscription request or such lesser amount as is set forth in the
oversubscription request of such holder, subject to rounding and other adjustments. You must indicate below whether and to what extent you elect to exercise your oversubscription privilege. 

         Your
payment must be made in U.S. dollars for the full number of Notes subscribed for by (i) uncertified check, bank draft or certified check drawn on personal or business
accounts upon a U.S. bank made payable to "National City Bank;" (ii) cashier's check drawn upon a U.S. bank or express money order made payable to "National City Bank;" or (iii) wire
transfer of immediately available funds to the account maintained by the Subscription Agent for the purpose of the offer (see wire transfer instructions on the following page). Your payment will be
considered received by the Subscription Agent only upon (i) clearance of any uncertified check deposited by the Subscription Agent; (ii) receipt by the Subscription Agent of any
certified check, cashier's check or bank draft drawn upon a U.S. bank, any express money order or any wire transfer; or (iii) receipt of collected funds in the Subscription Agent's account. 

         The
Subscription Agent will send you a confirmation (or, if you own your shares through a depository or nominee, to such depository or nominee) showing (i) the number of Notes
acquired pursuant to the subscription privilege and any oversubscription privilege; (ii) the aggregate purchase price for the Notes acquired pursuant to the subscription and any
oversubscription privilege; and (iii) any excess payment to be refunded to you. Any excess payment to be refunded will be mailed as soon as practicable after the Expiration Date. 

         Shareholders
whose shares are held of record by Cede & Co. or by any other depository or nominee on their behalf or their broker-dealers' behalf will have any Notes
acquired during the subscription period credited to the account
of Cede & Co. or other depository or nominee. With respect to all other shareholders, stock certificates for all shares of Common Stock acquired will be mailed as soon as practicable
after the Expiration Date. 

To subscribe for your Notes, please complete line "A" and "B" if you choose to oversubscribe on the card on the next page.

																	
	
SAMPLE CALCULATION:
	

Every 13 Rights entitles you to purchase one Note. You must hold at least 13 Rights to purchase one Note. By way of illustration, if you hold 40 Rights, you may purchase 3 Notes. You divide 40 Rights by 13 and round down to the nearest whole number
to get the number of Notes which can be purchased, and multiply each note by the $25 subscription price to get the payment that must be remitted to purchase the Notes.
