(2)            Additional Notes from time to time for original issue after the Issue Date in aggregate principal amounts specified by the Issuer, subject to the terms of this Indenture,

in each case upon a written order of the Issuer signed by an Officer of the Issuer (an “Authentication Order”). The Authentication Order shall, in the case of any issuance of Additional Notes, specify the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be authenticated, the date on which the original issue of Notes is to be authenticated and whether the Notes will be in the form of Global Notes or Certificated Notes.

(d)                 In case the Issuer shall be consolidated or merged with or into or wound up into any other Person or shall sell, assign, convey, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the assets and properties of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and the successor Person resulting from such consolidation, or surviving such merger, or into which the Issuer shall have been merged or wound up into, or the Person which shall have received a sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer or other disposition as aforesaid, shall have executed an indenture supplemental hereto with the Trustee pursuant to Article 5, any of the Notes authenticated or delivered prior to such consolidation, merger, sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer 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 a written order of the successor Person signed by an Officer of the successor Person, shall authenticate and make available for delivery Notes as specified in such order 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 2.02(d) 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 2.03.      Registrar, Paying Agent and Authenticating Agent; Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust.

(a)                 The Issuer may appoint one or more Registrars and one or more Paying Agents, and the Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent, in which case each reference in this Indenture to the Trustee in respect of the obligations of the Trustee to be performed by that Agent will be deemed to be references to the Agent. The Issuer may act as Registrar or (except for purposes of Article 8) Paying Agent. In each case the Issuer and the Trustee will enter into an appropriate agreement with the Agent implementing the provisions of this Indenture relating to the obligations of the Trustee to be performed by the Agent and the related rights. The Issuer initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar and Paying Agent for the Notes. The Issuer may remove any Registrar or Paying Agent upon written notice to such Registrar or Paying Agent and to the Trustee; provided, however, that no such removal shall become effective until (i) acceptance of any appointment by a successor as evidenced by an appropriate agreement entered into by the Issuer and such successor Registrar or Paying Agent, as the case may be, and delivered to the Trustee or (ii) notification to the Trustee that the Trustee shall serve as Registrar or Paying Agent until the appointment of a successor in accordance with clause (i) above. The appointment of an Authenticating Agent shall be evidenced by an instrument signed by a Trust Officer, a copy of which shall be furnished to the Issuer. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, any such Authenticating Agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by the Authenticating Agent.

(b)                 The Issuer will require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust for the benefit of the Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes and will promptly notify the Trustee of any Default by the Issuer in making any such payment. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and account for any funds disbursed, and the Trustee may at any time during the continuance of any Payment Default, upon written request to a Paying Agent, require the Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed. Upon doing so, the Paying Agent will have no further liability for the money so paid over to the Trustee.

Section 2.04.     Replacement Notes. If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Issuer and the Trustee receive evidence to their satisfaction of the loss, destruction or theft of any Note, the Issuer will issue and the Trustee will, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate a replacement Note of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Issuer and entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. The Holder must furnish an indemnity or security that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee to protect the Trustee and in the judgment of the Issuer to protect the Issuer, the Trustee and any Agent from any loss they may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuer and the Trustee may charge the Holder for their fees and expenses in replacing a Note, including any amounts to cover any tax or assessment. In case the mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Issuer in its discretion may pay the Note instead of issuing a replacement Note. It is understood that, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, only an Authentication Order and not an Opinion of Counsel or Officer’s Certificate is required for the Trustee to authenticate such replacement Note.

Section 2.05.      Outstanding Notes.

(a)       Notes outstanding at any time are all Notes that have been authenticated by the Trustee except for:

(1)            Notes cancelled by the Trustee or delivered to it for cancellation;

(2)            any Note which has been replaced pursuant to Section 2.04 unless and until the Trustee and the Issuer receive proof satisfactory to them that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser; and

(3)            on or after the maturity date or any redemption date or date for purchase of the Notes pursuant to an Offer to Purchase, those Notes payable or to be redeemed or purchased on that date for which the Trustee (or Paying Agent, other than the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer) holds money sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date.

(b)                 A Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or one of its Affiliates holds the Note, provided that in determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of the outstanding Notes have given or taken any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action hereunder (other than in respect of any action pursuant to Section 9.02 that requires the consent of each Holder of an affected Note), Notes owned by the Issuer or any Affiliate of the Issuer will be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding, (it being understood that in determining whether the Trustee is protected in relying upon any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, only Notes which the Trustee knows to be so owned will be so disregarded). Notes so owned which have been pledged in good faith shall not be so disregarded and shall be regarded as outstanding if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right so to act with respect to such Notes and that the pledgee is not the Issuer or any Affiliate of the Issuer.

Section 2.06.      Temporary Notes. Until definitive Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the Trustee will, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes will be substantially in the form of definitive Notes but may have insertions, substitutions, omissions and other variations determined to be appropriate by the Officer executing the temporary Notes, as evidenced by the execution of the temporary Notes. If temporary Notes are issued, the Issuer will cause definitive Notes to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Notes, the temporary Notes will be exchangeable for definitive Notes upon surrender of the temporary Notes at the office or agency of the Issuer designated for the purpose pursuant to Section 4.02, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any temporary Notes the Issuer will execute and the Trustee will, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Notes of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes will be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Notes.

Section 2.07.      Cancellation. The Issuer at any time may deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Issuer may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated hereunder which the Issuer has not issued and sold. Any Registrar or the Paying Agent will forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to it for transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee will cancel all Notes surrendered for transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and dispose of all canceled Notes in accordance with its normal procedures and upon receipt of a written direction from the Issuer directing it to cancel any such Notes. Upon the written request of the Issuer, the Trustee shall deliver copies of such canceled Notes to the Issuer. The Issuer may not issue new Notes to replace Notes it has paid in full or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

Section 2.08.      CUSIP and ISIN Numbers. The Issuer in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP” and/or “ISIN” numbers, and the Trustee will use CUSIP numbers or ISIN numbers in notices of redemption or exchange or in Offers to Purchase as a convenience to Holders, the notice to state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption or exchange or Offer to Purchase. The Issuer will promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the CUSIP or ISIN numbers.

Section 2.09.      Registration, Transfer and Exchange.

(a)                 The Notes will be issued in registered form only, without coupons. The Trustee shall maintain a register (the “Register”) of the Notes, for registering the record ownership of the Notes by the Holders and transfers and exchanges of the Notes. Upon request from the Issuer, the Registrar shall provide the Issuer with a copy of such Register.

(b)                

(1)            The Notes shall initially be issued in the form of one or more Global Notes. Each Global Note will be registered in the name of the Depositary for such Global Note or its nominee and, so long as DTC is serving as the Depositary thereof, will bear the DTC Legend.

(2)            Each Global Note will be delivered to the Trustee as custodian for the Depositary. Transfers of a Global Note (but not a beneficial interest therein) will be limited to transfers thereof in whole, but not in part, to the Depositary, its successors or their respective nominees, except (i) as set forth in Section 2.09(b)(4), (ii) if the Issuer in its sole discretion determines that any Global Note (in whole but not in part) should be exchanged for Certificated Notes and delivers a written notice to such effect to the Trustee, and (iii) transfers of portions thereof in the form of Certificated Notes may be made upon request of an Agent Member (for itself or on behalf of a beneficial owner) if required to do so pursuant to any applicable law or regulation, by written notice given to the Trustee by or on behalf of the Depositary in accordance with customary procedures of the Depositary and the Registrar and in compliance with this Section and Section 2.10.

(3)            Members of, or participants in, the Depositary (“Agent Members”) will have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the Depositary, or the Trustee as its custodian, and the Depositary may be treated by the Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee as the absolute owner and Holder of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever, including but not limited to notices and payments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Issuer, the Trustee or any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or impair, as between the Depositary and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a Holder of any Note. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any notice to be delivered to DTC (including, but not limited to, a notice of redemption) may be delivered electronically by the Trustee or the Issuer in accordance with applicable procedures of DTC.

(4)            If (x) the Depositary notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for a Global Note and a successor depositary is not appointed by the Issuer within 120 days of the notice or (y) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Trustee has received a request from Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes, the Trustee will promptly exchange each beneficial interest in the Global Note for one or more Certificated Notes as provided by the Issuer in authorized denominations having an equal aggregate principal amount registered in the name of the owner of such beneficial interest, as identified to the Trustee by the Depositary, and upon completion of full exchange of the positions in the Global Notes, the Global Note will be canceled. If such Global Note does not bear the Restricted Legend or the Regulation S Legend, as the case may be, then the Certificated Notes issued in exchange therefor will not bear the Restricted Legend or the Regulation S Legend, as the case may be. If such Global Note bears the Restricted Legend or the Regulation S Legend, as the case may be, then the Certificated Notes issued in exchange therefor will bear the Restricted Legend or the Regulation S Legend, as the case may be.

(c)                 Each Certificated Note will be registered in the name of the Holder thereof or its nominee.

(d)                 A Holder may transfer a Note (or a beneficial interest therein) to another Person or exchange a Note (or a beneficial interest therein) for another Note or Notes of any authorized denomination by presenting to the Trustee a written request therefor stating the name of the proposed transferee or requesting such an exchange, accompanied by any certification, opinion or other document required by Section 2.10. The Trustee will promptly register any transfer or exchange that meets the requirements of this Section by noting the same in the register maintained by the Trustee for the purpose; provided that:

(x)       no such transfer or exchange will be effective until it is registered in such register; and

(y)       neither the Trustee nor the Issuer will be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Note for a period beginning (1) 15 days before the mailing of a notice of redemption of Notes or an Offer to Purchase or (2) 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or purchased pursuant to an Offer to Purchase, (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Note so selected for redemption or purchase in whole or in part, except, in the case of a partial redemption or purchase, that portion of any Note not being redeemed or purchased, or (iii) if a redemption or a purchase pursuant to an Offer to Purchase is to occur after a Regular Record Date but on or before the corresponding Interest Payment Date, to register the transfer of or exchange any Note on or after the Regular Record Date and before the date of redemption or purchase. Prior to the registration of any transfer, the Issuer, the Trustee and their agents may deem and treat the Person in whose name the Note is registered as the owner and Holder thereof for all purposes (whether or not the Note is overdue), including without limitation the transfer or exchange of such Note, and none of the Issuer, the Trustee or any Agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

(e)                 The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in the Global Notes shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with the provisions hereof and the applicable procedures of the Depositary. No written request with respect to any such transfer shall be required to be delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.09(d) to effect the transfer of a beneficial interest in a Global Note to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the same Global Note.

(f)                 From time to time the Issuer will execute and the Trustee will, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate Global Notes and Certificated Notes as necessary in order to permit the registration of a transfer or exchange in accordance with this Section 2.09.

(g)                 No service charge will be imposed in connection with any registration of any transfer or exchange of any Note, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than a transfer tax or other similar governmental charge payable upon exchange pursuant to subsection (b)(4)(y)).

(h)                 The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

(i)                 (1)          Global Note to Global Note. If a beneficial interest in a Global Note is transferred or exchanged for a beneficial interest in another Global Note, the Trustee will (x) record a decrease in the principal amount of the Global Note being transferred or exchanged equal to the principal amount of such transfer or exchange and (y) record a like increase in the principal amount of the other Global Note. Any beneficial interest in one Global Note that is transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in another Global Note, or exchanged for an interest in another Global Note, will, upon transfer or exchange, cease to be an interest in such Global Note and become an interest in the other Global Note and, accordingly, will thereafter be subject to all transfer and exchange restrictions, if any, and other procedures applicable to beneficial interests in such other Global Note for as long as it remains such an interest.

(2)            Global Note to Certificated Note. If a beneficial interest in a Global Note is transferred or exchanged for a Certificated Note, the Trustee will (x) record a decrease in the principal amount of such Global Note equal to the principal amount of such transfer or exchange and (y) deliver one or more new Certificated Notes in authorized denominations having an equal aggregate principal amount to the transferee (in the case of a transfer) or the owner of such beneficial interest (in the case of an exchange), registered in the name of such transferee or owner, as applicable.

(3)            Certificated Note to Global Note. If a Certificated Note is transferred or exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Global Note, the Trustee will (x) cancel such Certificated Note, (y) record an increase in the principal amount of such Global Note equal to the principal amount of such transfer or exchange and (z) in the event that such transfer or exchange involves less than the entire principal amount of the canceled Certificated Note, deliver to the Holder thereof one or more new Certificated Notes in authorized denominations having an aggregate principal amount equal to the untransferred or unexchanged portion of the canceled Certificated Note, registered in the name of the Holder thereof.

(4)            Certificated Note to Certificated Note. If a Certificated Note is transferred or exchanged for another Certificated Note, the Trustee will (x) cancel the Certificated Note being transferred or exchanged, (y) deliver one or more new Certificated Notes in authorized denominations having an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such transfer or exchange to the transferee (in the case of a transfer) or the Holder of the canceled Certificated Note (in the case of an exchange), registered in the name of such transferee or Holder, as applicable, and (z) if such transfer or exchange involves less than the entire principal amount of the canceled Certificated Note, deliver to the Holder thereof one or more Certificated Notes in authorized denominations having an aggregate principal amount equal to the untransferred or unexchanged portion of the canceled Certificated Note, registered in the name of the Holder thereof.

Section 2.10.      Restrictions on Transfer and Exchange.

(a)                 The transfer or exchange of any Note (or a beneficial interest therein) may only be made in accordance with this Section, Section 2.09 and Section 2.11, and, in the case of a Global Note (or a beneficial interest therein), the applicable rules and procedures of the Depositary. The Trustee shall refuse to register any requested transfer or exchange that does not comply with the preceding sentence.

(2)            The Person requesting the transfer or exchange must deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee a duly completed Regulation S Certificate; provided that if the requested transfer or exchange is made by the Holder of a Certificated Note that does not bear the Restricted Legend, then no certification is required.

(3)            The Person requesting the transfer or exchange must deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee (x) a duly completed Rule 144A Certificate, (y) a duly completed Regulation S Certificate or (z) a duly completed Institutional Accredited Investor Certificate, and/or an Opinion of Counsel and such other certifications and evidence as the Trustee or the Issuer may reasonably require in order to determine that the proposed transfer or exchange is being made in compliance with the Securities Act and any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States; provided that if the requested transfer or exchange is made by the Holder of a Certificated Note that does not bear the Restricted Legend, then no certification is required. In the event that (i) the requested transfer or exchange takes place after the Restricted Period and a duly completed Regulation S Certificate is delivered to the Trustee or (ii) a Certificated Note that does not bear the Restricted Legend is surrendered for transfer or exchange, upon transfer or exchange the Trustee will deliver a Certificated Note that does not bear the Restricted Legend.

(4)            The Person requesting the transfer or exchange must deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee a duly completed Rule 144A Certificate.

(c)                 No certification is required in connection with any transfer or exchange of any Note (or a beneficial interest therein) after such Note is eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or a successor provision) without the need for current public information; provided that the Issuer has provided the Trustee with an Officer’s Certificate to that effect, and the Issuer may require from any Person requesting a transfer or exchange in reliance upon this clause (c) an opinion of counsel and any other reasonable certifications and evidence in order to support such certificate. Any Certificated Note delivered in reliance upon this Section 2.10(c) will not bear the Restricted Legend.

(d)                 The Trustee will retain copies of all certificates, opinions and other documents received in connection with the transfer or exchange of a Note (or a beneficial interest therein), and the Issuer will have the right to inspect and make copies thereof at any reasonable time upon written notice to the Trustee.

Section 2.11.      Offshore Global Notes. Each Note originally sold in reliance upon Regulation S will be evidenced by one or more Offshore Global Notes that bear the Regulation S Legend. During the Restricted Period, beneficial interests in the Offshore Global Note may only be transferred to or for the account or benefit of Non-U.S. Persons, unless permitted by applicable law.

Section 3.02.      Mandatory Redemption. The Company shall not be required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.

Section 3.03.      Method and Effect of Redemption.

(a)                 If the Company elects to redeem Notes pursuant to Section 3.01 or Section 4.14(e), it shall furnish to the Trustee, at least two Business Days (or such shorter period as the Trustee may agree) before the notice of redemption is required to be mailed or caused to be mailed to Holders pursuant to Section 3.01 or Section 4.14(e), notification setting forth (i) the paragraph or subparagraph of such Note and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the redemption shall occur, (ii) the redemption date, (iii) the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (iv) the redemption price.

(b)                 Notices of redemption must be delivered or mailed by the Company or, at the Company’s request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company, at least ten days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at such Holder’s registered address or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary, except that, notwithstanding Section 3.01 and Section 4.14(e), redemption notices may be delivered or mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with Article 8 or Article 12 hereof.

(1)            the redemption date;

(2)            the redemption price;

(3)            the name and address of the Paying Agent;

(4)            Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent in order to collect the redemption price;

(5)            on the redemption date the redemption price will become due and payable on Notes called for redemption, and interest on Notes called for redemption will cease to accrue on and after the redemption date;

(6)            if any Note is redeemed in part only, on or after the redemption date, upon surrender of such Note for cancellation, a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the original Note will be issued in the name of the Holder upon cancellation of the original Note; and

(7)            if any Note contains a CUSIP or ISIN number, no representation is being made as to the correctness of the CUSIP or ISIN number either as printed on the Notes or as contained in the notice of redemption and that the Holder should rely only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes.

(d)                 If fewer than all of the Notes are being redeemed, selection of the Notes for redemption will be made by the Trustee in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed and in such manner as complies with applicable legal requirements and, in the case of Global Notes, the procedures of the Depositary; provided that the selection of Notes for redemption shall not result in a Holder with a principal amount of Notes less than the minimum denomination of $2,000. The Trustee will notify the Company promptly of the Notes or portions of Notes selected for redemption, and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.

(e)                 Once notice of redemption is delivered or mailed to the Holders in accordance with Section 3.03(b), Notes called for redemption become due and payable at the redemption price on the redemption date, and upon surrender of the Notes called for redemption, the Company shall redeem such Notes at the redemption price, subject in each case to the satisfaction or waiver of any conditions to such redemption set forth in the notice of redemption in the case of a conditional redemption pursuant to Section 3.01(g). Commencing on the redemption date, Notes redeemed will cease to accrue interest. A notice of redemption, if delivered or mailed in a manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to deliver or mail a notice of redemption or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Note designated for redemption in whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Note. Upon surrender of any Note redeemed in part to the Trustee for cancellation, the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to the Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the surrendered Note; provided that each such new Note shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. It is understood that, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, only an Authentication Order and not an Opinion of Counsel or Officer’s Certificate is required for the Trustee to authenticate such new Note.

Section 3.04.      Offer to Purchase.

(a)                 An “Offer to Purchase” means an offer by the Company to purchase Notes that is required by Section 4.10 or Section 4.14. The Company will notify the Trustee at least two Business Days (or such shorter period as the Trustee may agree) prior to the commencement of an Offer to Purchase.

The Offer to Purchase shall be made to all Holders. The notice of an Offer to Purchase, if delivered or mailed in a manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to deliver or mail an Offer to Purchase or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Note designated for purchase in whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the purchase of any other Note.

(c)                 The notice of an Offer to Purchase for an Asset Sale Offer must include or state the following:

(1)            that an Asset Sale Offer is being made pursuant to this Indenture;

(4)            an expiration date for the Offer to Purchase (the “Expiration Date”) not less than ten days or more than 60 days after the commencement of the Asset Sale Offer, and a settlement date for purchase (the “Purchase Date”) not more than five Business Days after the Expiration Date;

(5)            a Holder may tender all or any portion of its Notes, subject to the requirement that any portion of a Note tendered must be in minimum amounts of $2,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof only;

(6)            each Holder electing to tender a Note pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer will be required to surrender such Note, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Note completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Company, the Depositary, if appointed by the Company, or a Paying Agent, as applicable, at the address specified in the notice, prior to the time specified in the notice on the Expiration Date in order to be accepted for purchase in the Offer to Purchase (any such Note being duly endorsed or accompanied by a duly executed written instrument of transfer);

(7)            interest on any Note not tendered, or tendered but not accepted for purchase by the Company pursuant to the Offer to Purchase, will continue to accrue;

(8)            on the Purchase Date the purchase price will become due and payable on each Note accepted for purchase, and interest on Notes purchased will cease to accrue on and after the Purchase Date;

(9)            Holders are entitled to withdraw Notes tendered by giving notice, which must be received by the Company, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, not later than the time specified in the notice on the Expiration Date, setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the tendered Notes and a statement that the Holder is withdrawing its election to have such Notes purchased;

(10)            (i) if Notes and, if applicable, Pari Passu Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount less than or equal to the Purchase Amount are duly tendered or surrendered by the holders or lenders thereof and not duly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer to Purchase, the Company will purchase all such Notes, and (ii) if Notes and, if applicable, Pari Passu Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount in excess of the Purchase Amount are duly tendered or surrendered by the holders or lenders thereof and not duly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer to Purchase, that the Trustee shall select the Notes to be purchased in the manner provided in this Indenture and, if applicable, the amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness accepted for purchase shall be determined on a pro rata basis based on the principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness accepted for purchase (with such adjustments as may be appropriate so that only Notes in minimum amounts of $2,000 or in integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof are purchased);

(11)            if any Note is purchased in part only, on or after the Purchase Date, upon surrender of such Note for cancellation, a new Note or new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the original Note will be issued in the name of the Holder upon cancellation of the original Note; and

(12)            if any Note contains a CUSIP or ISIN number, no representation is being made as to the correctness of the CUSIP or ISIN number either as printed on the Notes or as contained in the notice of the Offer to Purchase and that the Holder should rely only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes.

(d)                 If any Note is to be purchased in part only pursuant to an Offer to Purchase, any notice of purchase from any Holder that relates to such Note shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof that has been or is to be purchased.

It is understood that, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, only an Authentication Order and not an Opinion of Counsel or Officer’s Certificate is required for the Trustee to authenticate such new Note.

(f)                 If fewer than all of the Notes are being purchased, selection of the Notes for purchase will be made by the Company in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed and in such manner as complies with applicable legal requirements and, in the case of Global Notes, the procedures of the Depositary; provided that the selection of Notes for purchase shall not result in a Holder with a principal amount of Notes less than the minimum denomination of $2,000. The Company will notify the Trustee promptly of the Notes or portions of Notes selected for purchase, and, in the case of any Note selected for partial purchase, the principal amount thereof to be purchased.

(g)                 The Company shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations, in each case to the extent such laws, rules or regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to the Offer to Purchase. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this covenant, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Indenture by virtue thereof.

Section 4.02.      Maintenance of Office or Agency.

(a)                 The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency (which may be an office of the Trustee or an affiliate of the Trustee or the Registrar) where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange or for presentation for payment and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served; provided that legal service of process on the Issuer may not be served at any such office of the Trustee or an affiliate of the Trustee. The Issuer hereby initially designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee as one such office or agency of the Issuer . The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Issuer fails to maintain any such required office or agency or fails to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations and surrenders may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee.

(b)                 The Issuer may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be surrendered or presented for any or all of such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations. The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

Section 4.03.      Reports and Other Information.

(a)                 Notwithstanding that the Company is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act or otherwise reports on an annual and quarterly basis on forms provided for such annual and quarterly reporting pursuant to rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC, the Company shall (a) file with the SEC (unless the SEC will not accept such filing), and (b) deliver to the Trustee and, upon written request, the registered Holders of the Notes, without cost to any Holder, from and after the Issue Date:

(2)            within the time periods specified by the Exchange Act (including all applicable extension periods), a quarterly report on Form 10-Q (or any successor or comparable form); and

(3)            all current reports that would be required to be filed with the SEC on Form 8-K (or any successor or comparable form).

The Company will hold quarterly conference calls (for the avoidance of doubt, the Company’s quarterly earnings call shall satisfy such requirement) for the Holders and securities analysts to discuss such financial information for the previous reporting period no later than ten Business Days after distribution of such financial information.

(c)                 In addition, to the extent not satisfied by the foregoing, the Company shall, for so long as any Notes are outstanding, make available to the Holders and to prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act so long as the Notes are not freely transferable under the Securities Act.

(d)                 Delivery of such reports and information to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of them will 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 Officer’s Certificates). The Trustee shall have no duty to review or analyze such reports, information or documents. The Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility for the filing, timeliness or content of any such reports, information or documents, and the Trustee shall have no duty to participate in or monitor any conference calls.

(e)                 The Company will be deemed to have satisfied the information and reporting requirements of this Section 4.03 if the Company (or any direct or indirect parent of the Company) has filed reports or registration statements containing such information with the SEC via the SEC’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval system (or any successor system) within the time periods specified above and such reports are publicly available.

(f)                 Notwithstanding the foregoing, such reports and other information required to be provided pursuant to this Section 4.03 may be, rather than those of the Company, those of any direct or indirect parent of the Company.

(b)                 If any Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee, as soon as possible and in any event within 30 days after the Company becomes aware of the occurrence of a Default, an Officer’s Certificate specifying the Default, and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

The Company shall pay or discharge, and cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to pay or discharge before the same become delinquent all material taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed upon the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary or its income or profits or property, other than any such tax, assessment or governmental charge that is being contested in good faith by appropriate legal proceedings or with respect to which the failure to make payment could not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect to the Holders of the Notes as determined in good faith by the Company.

Section 4.06.      Stay, Extension and Usury Laws. The Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor 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 or any usury law, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture. The Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby expressly waives, to the extent that it may lawfully do so, all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, 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.

No Subsidiary Guarantor will Incur any Indebtedness under Section 4.09(b) if the proceeds thereof are used, directly or indirectly, to refinance any Guarantor Subordinated Obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor unless such Indebtedness shall be subordinated to the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee to at least the same extent as such Guarantor Subordinated Obligations. No Non-Guarantor Subsidiary may Incur any Indebtedness if the proceeds are used to refinance Indebtedness of the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor.

(c)                 For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.09:

(1)            in the event that an item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt or is entitled to be Incurred or issued as Ratio Debt, the Company, in its sole discretion, will divide, classify or reclassify such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) on the date of Incurrence, and may at any later time and from time to time divide, classify or reclassify such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this Section 4.09; provided that all Indebtedness outstanding on the Issue Date under the Senior Credit Facilities shall be deemed Incurred on the Issue Date under clause (1) of Section 4.09(b) and not as Ratio Debt or under clause (3) of Section 4.09(b) and may not later be reclassified;

(2)            Guarantees of, or obligations in respect of letters of credit relating to, Indebtedness that are otherwise included in the determination of a particular amount of Indebtedness shall not be included in the determination of such amount of Indebtedness; provided that the Incurrence of the Indebtedness represented by such guarantee or letter of credit, as the case may be, was in compliance with this covenant;

(3)            the principal amount of any Disqualified Stock of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, or Preferred Stock of a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary, will be deemed to be equal to the greater of the maximum mandatory redemption or repurchase price (not including, in either case, any redemption or repurchase premium) or the liquidation preference thereof, exclusive of any accrued dividends;

(4)            the amount of Indebtedness issued at a price that is less than the principal amount thereof will be equal to the amount of the liability in respect thereof determined in accordance with GAAP;

(5)            accrual of interest, accrual of dividends, the accretion of accreted value, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness, the payment of dividends in the form of additional shares of Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock of the same class, the accretion of liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies will not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this covenant;

(6)            the amount of any Indebtedness outstanding as of any date shall be the accreted value thereof in the case of any Indebtedness issued with original issue discount or the aggregate principal amount outstanding in the case of Indebtedness issued with interest payable in kind and the principal amount or liquidation preference thereof in the case of any other Indebtedness; and

(7)            the principal amount of any Indebtedness Incurred to refinance or replace other Indebtedness, if Incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced or replaced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Refinancing Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

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

If at any time an Unrestricted Subsidiary becomes a Restricted Subsidiary, any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary shall be deemed to be Incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary as of such date (and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be Incurred as of such date under this Section 4.09, the Company shall be in Default of this Section 4.09).

For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the Incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was Incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first committed or first Incurred (whichever yields the lower U.S. dollar-equivalent), in the case of revolving credit Indebtedness; 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 (plus accrued and unpaid interest and the aggregate amount of premiums (including tender premiums), underwriting discounts, defeasance costs and fees, discounts and expenses in connection therewith).

Section 4.10.      Limitation on Asset Sales.

(a)                 The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate any Asset Sale unless:

(1)            the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, receives consideration at least equal to the Fair Market Value (as determined at the time of contractually agreeing to such Asset Sale) of the Capital Stock, assets or property sold or otherwise disposed of pursuant to such Asset Sale; and

(2)            except in the case of a Permitted Asset Swap, at least 75.0% of the consideration from such Asset Sale, together with all other Asset Sales since the Issue Date (on a cumulative basis), received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents; provided, however, to the extent that the assets sold in such Asset Sale were part of the Collateral, the assets received as non-cash consideration shall not be Excluded Assets and are required to be pledged as Collateral pursuant to the Security Documents reasonably promptly after receipt by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary thereof. For purposes of this clause (2) the amount of:

(A)            any liabilities (as shown on the Company’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet or in the notes thereto for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding such date or, if incurred or accrued subsequent to the date of such balance sheet, such liabilities that would have been reflected on the Company’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s balance sheet or in the notes thereto if such incurrence or accrual had taken place on or prior to the date of such balance sheet in the good faith determination of the Company) of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes) that are extinguished in connection with the transactions relating to such Asset Sale, or that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets, property or Capital Stock, in each case, pursuant to an agreement that releases or indemnifies the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, from further liability therefor;

(B)            any securities, notes or other obligations or other assets or property received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash or Cash Equivalents, or by their terms are required to be satisfied for cash or Cash Equivalents (to the extent of the cash or Cash Equivalents received), in each case within 180 days following the receipt thereof; and

(C)            any Designated Noncash Consideration received by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in such Asset Sale having an aggregate Fair Market Value, taken together with all other Designated Noncash Consideration received pursuant to this subclause (C) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed the greater of (x) $100.0 million and (y) 18.8% of Consolidated EBITDA of the Company for the most recently ended four consecutive fiscal quarters for which financial statements have been delivered, calculated at the time of the receipt of such Designated Noncash Consideration (with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Noncash Consideration being measured at the time received without giving effect to subsequent changes in value);

shall each be deemed to be Cash Equivalents.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company shall not nor shall it permit any Subsidiary to consummate an Asset Sale to an Unrestricted Subsidiary of intellectual property that is material to the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

(b)            Within 365 days after the Company’s or any Restricted Subsidiary’s receipt of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale, the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, at its option, may apply an amount equal to the Net Cash Proceeds from such Asset Sale (or any portion thereof) as follows:

(1)            if such Net Cash Proceeds are from an Asset Sale that is not a disposition of Collateral, to repay, prepay, defease, redeem, reduce, purchase or otherwise retire (and to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto in the case of revolving borrowings): (x) Indebtedness of the Company (other than any Disqualified Stock or Subordinated Obligations) that is secured by a Lien on assets that do not constitute a part of the Collateral (other than Indebtedness owed to an Affiliate of the Company) or (y) Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary (other than any Disqualified Stock or Guarantor Subordinated Obligations) that is secured by a Lien on assets that do not constitute a part of the Collateral (other than Indebtedness owed to the Company or an Affiliate of the Company);

(2)            if such Net Cash Proceeds are from an Asset Sale that is not a disposition of Collateral, in the case of an Asset Sale by a Restricted Subsidiary that is a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary, to repay, prepay, defease, redeem, reduce, purchase or otherwise retire (and to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto in the case of revolving borrowings) Indebtedness of such Restricted Subsidiary or any other Restricted Subsidiary that is a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary;

(3)            to repay, prepay, defease, redeem, reduce, purchase or otherwise retire (and to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto in the case of revolving borrowings other than commitments under the Revolving Facility), on a pro rata basis: (x) Indebtedness or other Obligations under the Senior Credit Facilities and any Pari Passu Lien Obligations (other than Indebtedness owed to the Company or an Affiliate of the Company and the Notes) and (y) the Notes by, at its option (i) redeeming Notes as provided under Section 3.01, (ii) purchasing Notes through open market purchases (to the extent such purchases are at or above 100.0% of the principal amount thereof), or (iii) making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for an Asset Sale Offer) to all Holders to purchase their Notes at 100.0% of the principal amount thereof, plus the amount of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the amount of Notes that would otherwise be prepaid;

(4)            to make an investment in, purchase or otherwise acquire any one or more businesses, assets (other than working capital assets), properties or capital expenditures, in each case used or useful in a Similar Business or to make payments (including without limitation prepayments and progress payments) in connection with such investment, purchase or other acquisition; provided, that if such investment, purchase or acquisition is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock of a Person, such investment, purchase or acquisition results in such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary; provided, further, that the assets acquired with the Net Cash Proceeds of a disposition shall not be Excluded Assets and are required to be pledged as Collateral pursuant to the Security Documents reasonably promptly after receipt by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary thereof;

(5)            to make an investment in, purchase or otherwise acquire any one or more businesses, assets (other than working capital assets) or properties that replace the businesses, assets and/or properties that are the subject to such Asset Sale; provided, that the assets acquired with the Net Cash Proceeds of a disposition shall not be Excluded Assets and are required to be pledged as Collateral pursuant to the Security Documents reasonably promptly after receipt by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary thereof; or

(6)            any combination of the foregoing,

provided, that the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries will be deemed to have complied with the provisions described in clause (4) or (5) of this Section 4.10(b) if and to the extent that, within 365 days after the Company’s or any Restricted Subsidiary’s receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds, the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, has entered into and not abandoned or rejected a binding agreement (an “Acceptable Commitment”) to make an investment, purchase or other acquisition in compliance with the provision described in clause (4) or (5) of this Section 4.10(b), and that investment, purchase or other acquisition is thereafter completed within 180 days after the end of such 365-day period or in the event any Acceptable Commitment is later cancelled or terminated for any reason before the Net Cash Proceeds are applied in connection therewith, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary enters into another Acceptable Commitment (a “Second Acceptable Commitment”) within 180 days of such cancellation or termination and that investment, purchase or other acquisition is thereafter completed within 180 days after the entry into the Second Acceptable Commitment.

(c)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that repatriation to the United States of any or all of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sales by a Foreign Subsidiary (x) is prohibited or delayed by applicable local law or (y) would have a material adverse tax consequence (taking into account any foreign tax credit or other net benefit actually realized in connection with such repatriation that would not otherwise be realized), as determined by the Company in its sole discretion, the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds so affected will not be required to be applied in compliance with this covenant; provided that clause (x) of this paragraph shall apply to such amounts so long, but only so long, as the applicable local law will not permit repatriation to the United States (the Company hereby agreeing to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to take all actions reasonably required by the applicable local law, applicable organizational impediments or other impediment to permit such repatriation), and if such repatriation of any of such affected Net Cash Proceeds is permitted under the applicable local law and is not subject to clause (y) of this paragraph, then, an amount equal to such Net Cash Proceeds will be promptly applied (net of additional taxes that would be payable or reserved against as a result of repatriating such amounts) in compliance with this covenant. The time periods set forth in this covenant shall not start until such time as the Net Cash Proceeds may be repatriated (whether or not such repatriation actually occurs).

(d)                 Pending the final application of any such Net Cash Proceeds, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries may temporarily reduce Indebtedness (including under a revolving Debt Facility) or otherwise invest or utilize such Net Cash Proceeds in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture. Any amount of Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale that is not applied or invested as provided and within the time period set forth in Section 4.10(b) will be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds”; provided, that any amount of proceeds offered to Holders pursuant to clause (3) of Section 4.10(b) or pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer made at any time after the Asset Sale shall be deemed to have been applied as required and shall not be deemed to be Excess Proceeds without regard to the extent to which such offer is accepted by the Holders. When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $75.0 million, the Company will be required to make an offer (“Asset Sale Offer”) to all Holders of Notes and, to the extent required by the terms of other Pari Passu Indebtedness, to all holders of other Pari Passu Indebtedness outstanding with similar provisions requiring the Company (or the Subsidiary Guarantor, as applicable) to make an offer to purchase such Pari Passu Indebtedness with the proceeds from any Asset Sale, to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes and any such Pari Passu Indebtedness to which the Asset Sale Offer applies that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds, at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100.0% of the principal amount of the Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness plus accrued and unpaid interest to (but not including) the date of purchase (or such lesser price with respect to the Pari Passu Indebtedness, if any, as may be provided by the terms of such Indebtedness), in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture or the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness, as applicable.

(e)                 The Company may satisfy the foregoing obligations with respect to any Net Cash Proceeds from an Asset Sale by making an Asset Sale Offer or other tender offer with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds prior to the time period that may be required by this Indenture with respect to all or a part of the available Net Cash Proceeds in advance of being required to do so by this Indenture so long as the offer price to holders equals or exceeds the price required in the immediately preceding paragraph.

(f)             To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness so properly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Company may use any remaining Excess Proceeds (the “Retained Excess Proceeds”) for any purpose not prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by Holders thereof and other Pari Passu Indebtedness surrendered by Holders or lenders, collectively, exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, selection of Notes for purchase will be made by the Company in accordance with Section 3.04(f). Upon completion of such Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero.

Section 4.11.      Limitation on Affiliate Transactions.

(a)                 The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, enter into or conduct any transaction (including for the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of any property or the rendering of any service) with any Affiliate of the Company involving aggregate consideration in excess of $50.0 million (an “Affiliate Transaction”) unless:

(1)            the terms of such Affiliate Transaction are not materially less favorable to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, when taken as a whole, than those that would have been obtained by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary in a comparable transaction at the time of such transaction on an arm’s-length basis with a Person who is not an Affiliate (as determined in good faith by the Company); and

(2)            in the event such Affiliate Transaction involves an aggregate consideration in excess of $150.0 million, the terms of such transaction have been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the Company and the Board of Directors of the Company shall have determined in good faith that such Affiliate Transaction satisfies the criteria in clause (1) above.

(b)                 Section 4.11(a) shall not apply to:

(1)            (i) any transaction between or among the Company and/or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or an entity that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such transaction); (ii) guarantees issued by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary for the benefit of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary in compliance with Section 4.09, as applicable; or (iii) the Security Documents, the Intercreditor Agreements or any documents effecting a joinder, accession, amendment or supplement thereto;

(2)            any Restricted Payments permitted by this Indenture or any Permitted Investments;

(3)            any employment, consulting, service or termination agreement, or indemnification arrangement, entered into by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary with a future, current or former director, officer, employee, manager, consultant or independent contractor of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary (or any direct or indirect parent of the Company to the extent such agreements or arrangements are in respect of services performed for the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries); the payment of compensation or expense reimbursement to any future, current or former director, officer, employee, manager, consultant or independent contractor of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary (including amounts paid pursuant to any benefit plan or arrangement, any health, disability or similar insurance plan or any stock option, employee stock purchase or similar plans); or any issuance of securities, or other payments, awards or grants in cash, securities or otherwise pursuant to, or the funding of, employment agreements and other compensation arrangements, options to purchase Capital Stock of the Company, subscription agreements, restricted stock plans, restricted stock unit plans, long-term incentive plans, stock appreciation rights plans, participation plans or similar employee benefits plans and/or indemnity provided on behalf of future, current or former directors, officers, employees, managers, consultants or independent contractors of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, in each case in the ordinary course of business or as otherwise approved by the Board of Directors of the Company or any direct or indirect parent of the Company;

(4)            payments, loans, advances or guarantees (or cancellation of loans, advances or guarantees) to employees, officers, directors, managers, consultants or independent contractors for bona fide business purposes or in the ordinary course of business, in an aggregate amount not in excess of $10.0 million outstanding at any time;

(5)            any agreement or arrangement as in effect as of the Issue Date (as such agreement or arrangement may be amended, modified, supplemented, extended, renewed or replaced from time to time, so long as any such amendment, modification, supplement, extension, renewal or replacement, when taken as a whole, is not materially more disadvantageous to the Holders (as determined in good faith by the Company) than the terms of the original agreement or arrangement in effect on the Issue Date) or any transaction contemplated thereby;

(6)            any agreement between any Person and an Affiliate of such Person existing at the time such Person is acquired by or merged, amalgamated or consolidated with or into the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, as such agreement may be amended, modified, supplemented, extended or renewed from time to time; provided that such agreement was not entered into contemplation of such acquisition, merger, amalgamation or consolidation, and so long as any such amendment, modification, supplement, extension or renewal, when taken as a whole, is not materially more disadvantageous to the Holders than the applicable agreement as in effect on the date of such acquisition, merger, amalgamation or consolidation (as determined in good faith by the Company);

(7)            transactions with customers, clients, suppliers, joint venture partners or purchasers or sellers of goods or services, in each case in the ordinary course of business and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture, in each case which are fair to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries or are on terms that are not materially less favorable, when taken as a whole, 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 unaffiliated party (as determined in good faith by the Company);

(8)            any transaction with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary) that would constitute an Affiliate Transaction solely because the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary owns Capital Stock of or otherwise controls such Person; provided that no Affiliate of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary) shall have a beneficial interest or otherwise participate in such Person;

(9)            transactions between the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and any Person that would constitute an Affiliate Transaction solely because such Person is a director, or such Person has a director who is also a director, of the Company or any direct or indirect parent of the Company; provided, however, that such director abstains from voting as a director of the Company or such direct or indirect parent of the Company, as the case may be, on any matter involving such other Person;

(10)            any issuance or sale of Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) to Affiliates of the Company and the granting of registration and other customary rights with respect thereto;

(11)            transactions in which the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary delivers to the Trustee a letter or opinion 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 stating that the terms are not materially less favorable, when taken as a whole, than those that might reasonably have been obtained by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary in a comparable transaction at such time on an arms-length basis from a Person that is not an Affiliate; and

(12)            transactions pursuant to Permitted Tax Restructurings.

Section 4.12.      Limitation on Liens.

(a)                 The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or permit to exist any Lien (except Permitted Liens) that secures Obligations under any Indebtedness or any related guarantee of Indebtedness of any kind (any such lien, the “Initial Lien”), on any asset or property of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries now owned or hereafter acquired, except in the case of any assets or property that do not constitute Collateral, any Initial Lien if the Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees are secured equally and ratably with (or prior to) the obligations secured by such Initial Lien (subject to Permitted Liens).

(b)                 Any Lien created for the benefit of the holders of the Notes pursuant to Section 4.12(a) shall provide by its terms that such Lien shall be deemed automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of each of the Initial Liens.

(c)                 If the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries creates any Lien upon any asset or property that is not at such time Collateral in order to secure any Pari Passu Lien Debt, it must concurrently grant a first-priority Lien upon such property or assets as security for the Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees, such that the asset or property subject to such Lien will constitute Collateral under this Indenture and the Security Documents, subject to Permitted Liens.

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.12, (x) a Lien securing an item of Indebtedness need not be permitted solely by reference to one category (or portion thereof) of Permitted Liens described in the definition thereof or by reference to Section 4.12(a), but may be permitted in part under any combination thereof and (y) in the event that a Lien securing an item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of one or more of the categories of Permitted Liens described in the definition thereof or is permitted by Section 4.12(a), the Company shall, in its sole discretion, be entitled to divide, classify or reclassify, or later divide, classify, or reclassify, in whole or in part, any such Lien (or any portion thereof) in any manner.

The expansion of Liens by virtue of accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of dividends on Preferred Stock in the form of additional shares of Preferred Stock of the same class accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference, increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies or increases in the value of property securing Indebtedness, will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Liens for purposes of this Section 4.12.

Section 4.13.      Existence. The Company shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence and the existence of each of its Restricted Subsidiaries in accordance with their respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time), and the material rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, provided that the Company is not required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the existence of any Restricted Subsidiary, in each case if the Company in good faith shall determine that the maintenance or preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole; and provided further that this Section does not prohibit any transaction otherwise permitted by Section 4.07 or Article 5.

Section 4.14.      Offer to Repurchase Upon a Change of Control.

(a)            Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, unless the Company has previously or concurrently exercised its right to redeem all of the Notes pursuant to Section 3.01, each Holder shall have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part of such Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101.0% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date falling on or prior to the date of purchase).

(b)            Prior to or within 30 days following any Change of Control, unless the Company has previously or concurrently exercised its right to redeem all of the Notes pursuant to Section 3.01, the Company shall deliver a notice (the “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder or otherwise give notice in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary, with a copy to the Trustee, stating:

(1)            that a Change of Control has occurred or, if the Change of Control Offer is being made in advance of a Change of Control, that a Change of Control is expected to occur, and that such Holder has, or upon such occurrence will have, the right to require the Company to purchase such Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101.0% of the principal amount of such Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on a Regular Record Date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date) (the “Change of Control Payment”);

(2)            the repurchase date (which shall be no earlier than ten days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered) (the “Change of Control Payment Date”);

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

(4)            the procedures determined by the Company, consistent with this Indenture, that a Holder must follow in order to have its Notes repurchased.

On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company shall, to the extent lawful:

(1)            accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

(2)            deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn; and

(3)            deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee for cancellation the Notes so accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Company in accordance with the terms of this covenant.

The Paying Agent shall promptly deliver to each Holder of Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any, in accordance with Section 3.04(e).

(c)            If the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after a Regular Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, shall be paid on the relevant Interest Payment Date to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such Regular Record Date.

(d)                 (i) The Company shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer; and (ii) the Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer if the Company has previously or concurrently exercised its right to redeem all of the Notes pursuant to Section 3.01 pursuant to a notice of redemption that is or has become unconditional.

(e)                 The Company or a third party may, at its option, redeem the Notes upon not less than ten nor more than 60 days’ notice, given not more than 30 days following the consummation of the Change of Control Offer, at a redemption price of 101.0% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date falling on or prior to such redemption date), in connection with the consummation of a Change of Control if at least 90.0% of the Notes outstanding prior to the Change of Control Payment Date are purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer with respect to such Change of Control.

(f)             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.

Section 4.15.      Future Subsidiary Guarantors.

(a)                 The Company shall cause each Restricted Subsidiary (x) that borrows under or Guarantees the Senior Credit Facilities, and (y) that Guarantees any other Indebtedness of the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor (other than Indebtedness owing to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) in an aggregate principal amount greater than or equal to $50.0 million, to execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture to this Indenture pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary will irrevocably and unconditionally Guarantee, on a joint and several basis, the full and prompt payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest in respect of the Notes on a senior basis and all other obligations under this Indenture. To the extent that the assets of any such future Subsidiary Guarantor are required to pledged as collateral pursuant to the Senior Credit Facilities or any such other Indebtedness, such assets will be pledged as Collateral pursuant to the Security Documents reasonably promptly after such Restricted Subsidiary issues its Guarantee of the Notes.

(b)                 Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event (i) a Subsidiary Guarantor is released and discharged in full from all of its obligations under its Guarantees of any other Indebtedness that gave rise (or would give rise) to its obligation to provide such Subsidiary Guarantee and (ii) such Subsidiary Guarantor has not Incurred any Indebtedness in reliance on its status as a Subsidiary Guarantor under Section 4.09 or such Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations under such Indebtedness are satisfied in full and discharged or are otherwise permitted to be Incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary (other than a Subsidiary Guarantor) under Section 4.09, then the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released or discharged.

Section 4.16.      Maintenance of Insurance. The Company will maintain or cause to be maintained, with financially sound and reputable insurers, insurance with respect to the business and assets of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, in such amounts and against such liabilities, casualties, risks and contingencies existing from time to time as is customary for prudent owners and operators of similar businesses and similar property. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if a mortgage is required pursuant to provisions set forth in the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement with respect to any Premises, and such Premises is designated as, or to be in, a “flood hazard area,” the Company will maintain or cause to be maintained, with financially sound and reputable insurers, flood insurance on such Premises in such total amount as required under applicable law and otherwise in compliance with the National Flood Insurance Program as set forth in the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973.

Section 4.17.      Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

(a)                 The Board of Directors of the Company or any direct or indirect parent of the Company may designate any Subsidiary of the Company (including any existing Subsidiary and any newly acquired or newly formed Subsidiary or a Person becoming a Subsidiary through merger, amalgamation or consolidation or Investment therein) to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary only if:

(1)            such Subsidiary or any of its Subsidiaries has not Guaranteed any Capital Stock or Indebtedness of and does not own any Capital Stock in, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary and does not hold any Liens on any property or assets of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than a Subsidiary of the Subsidiary to be so designated);

(2)            all the Indebtedness of such Subsidiary and its Subsidiaries shall, at the date of designation, and will for so long as it is an Unrestricted Subsidiary, consist of Non-Recourse Debt;

(3)            the aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in such Subsidiary complies with Section 4.07 or constitutes a Permitted Investment; and

(4)            except as permitted under Section 4.11, on the date such Subsidiary is designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary, such Subsidiary is not a party to any agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding with the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary with terms substantially less favorable to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, when taken as a whole, than those that would have been obtained from Persons who are not Affiliates of the Company.

Any such designation by the Board of Directors of the Company or any direct or indirect parent of the Company after the Issue Date shall be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the Trustee a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company or any direct or indirect parent of the Company giving effect to such designation and an Officer’s Certificate certifying that such designation complies with the foregoing conditions. If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet the foregoing requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it shall thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of this Indenture and any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary shall be deemed to be Incurred as of such date.

(b)                 The Board of Directors of the Company may designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that immediately after giving effect to such designation, no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof and either (i) the Company would be permitted to Incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness as Ratio Debt after giving effect to such designation or (ii) the Consolidated Coverage Ratio of the Company after giving effect to such designation would be equal to or greater than such ratio immediately prior to such designation.

Section 4.18.      Suspension of Certain Covenants.

(a)                 Following the first day (the “Suspension Date”) that:

(1)            the Notes have an Investment Grade Rating from both of the Rating Agencies; and

(2)            no Default has occurred and is continuing hereunder,

the Subsidiary Guarantees will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged and the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be subject to the covenants in Sections Section 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.15, 4.16 and clause (4) of Section 5.01(a) (collectively, the “Suspended Covenants”). If at any time following a Suspension Date the Notes’ credit rating is downgraded from an Investment Grade Rating by any Rating Agency such that the Notes do not have an Investment Grade Rating by both of the Rating Agencies, then the Suspended Covenants will thereafter be reinstated (such date, the “Reinstatement Date”) and be applicable pursuant to the terms of this Indenture with respect to future events, unless and until a subsequent Suspension Date occurs (in which event the Suspended Covenants shall no longer be in effect until a subsequent Reinstatement Date occurs). The period of time between Suspension Date and the Reinstatement Date is referred to as the “Suspension Period.”

(b)                 Notwithstanding the reinstatement of the Suspended Covenants upon a Reinstatement Date, no Default, Event of Default or breach of any kind shall be deemed to have occurred or exist under this Indenture, the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantees with respect to the Suspended Covenants based on, and none of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall bear any liability for, any actions taken or events occurring during the Suspension Period, or any actions taken at any time pursuant to any contractual obligation arising prior to the Reinstatement Date, regardless of whether such actions or events would have been permitted if the applicable Suspended Covenants remained in effect during such period. The Company and its Subsidiaries shall be permitted, without causing a Default or Event of Default or breach of any of the Suspended Covenants (notwithstanding the reinstatement thereof) under this Indenture, to honor, comply with or otherwise perform any contractual commitments or obligations entered into during a Suspension Period following a Reinstatement Date and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby; provided that, to the extent any such commitment or obligation results in the making of a Restricted Payment, such Restricted Payment shall be made under clause (C) of Section 4.07(a) or under Section 4.07(b) and, if not permitted by any of such provisions, such Restricted Payment shall be deemed permitted under clause (C) of Section 4.07(a) and shall be deducted for purposes of calculating the amount pursuant to such clause (C) (so that the amount available under such clause (C) immediately following such Restricted Payment shall be negative).

(c)                 On each Reinstatement Date, all Indebtedness Incurred during the applicable Suspension Period will be classified to have been Incurred pursuant to clause (3) of Section 4.09(b). Calculations made after each Reinstatement Date of the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 4.07 will be made as though Section 4.07 had been in effect prior to, but not during, the Suspension Period. Upon the Suspension Date, the amount of Excess Proceeds from Asset Sales shall be reset at zero. In addition, for purposes of Section 4.11, all transactions entered into by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary with an Affiliate of the Company during the Suspension Period shall be deemed to have been entered into pursuant to clause (5) of Section 4.11(b), and for purposes of Section 4.08, all agreements and instruments entered into during the Suspension Period that contain any of the restrictions contemplated by such covenant shall be deemed to have been entered into pursuant to clause (1) of Section 4.08(b).

(d)                 During any period when the Suspended Covenants are suspended, the Board of Directors of the Company may not designate any of the Company’s Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries pursuant to this Indenture.

(e)                 The Company shall provide written notice to the Trustee of the occurrence of any Suspension Date or Reinstatement Date. The Trustee shall have no obligation to (i) independently determine or verify if such events have occurred, (ii) make any determination regarding the impact of actions taken during the Suspension Period on future compliance by the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries with their covenants or (iii) notify the holders of the occurrence of any action that results in a Suspension Date or Reinstatement Date.

Section 4.19.      Post-Closing Deliveries. Within the periods of time set forth in Schedule 1, the Company shall deliver, or cause to be delivered to the Notes Collateral Agent copies of the Post-Closing Transaction Documents duly executed by the Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor, in each case, to the extent party thereto.

Article 5
Merger and Consolidation

Section 5.01.      Merger and Consolidation.

(a)                 The Company shall not consummate a Division as a Dividing Person, consolidate with or merge with or into or wind up into (whether or not the Company is the surviving corporation), or sell, assign, convey, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the assets and properties of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, in one or more related transactions, to any Person unless:

(1)            the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the “Successor Company”) or the Division Successor surviving any Division is the Company or will be a corporation, limited liability company, partnership, limited partnership or trust organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State of the United States or the District of Columbia; provided that if such Person is not a corporation, such Person will immediately cause a Subsidiary that is organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State of the United States or the District of Columbia and that is a corporation to be added as a co-issuer of the Notes under this Indenture;

(2)            (x) the Successor Company (if other than the Company) assumes all of the obligations of the Company under the Notes, this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements and the Security Documents pursuant to a supplemental indenture, amendments or other customary documents or instruments, or (y) in the case of a Division, where the Company is the Dividing Person, the Division Successor shall remain or become a co-issuer of the Notes;

(3)            immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

(4)            immediately after giving pro forma effect to such transaction and any related financing transactions, as if such transactions had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-fiscal-quarter period, either:

Article 6
Defaults and Remedies

Section 6.01.      Events of Default.

(a)                 An “Event of Default” means any one of the following events (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary):

(1)           default in any payment of interest on any Note when due, continued for 30 days;

(2)            default in the payment of principal of or premium, if any, on any Note when due at its Stated Maturity, upon optional redemption, upon required repurchase, upon acceleration or otherwise;

(3)            failure by the Company to comply with its obligations under Section 5.01 (other than its obligations under clause (5) of Section 5.01(a)) or the failure by any Subsidiary Guarantor to comply with its obligations under clauses (1)(b), (1)(c), (1)(d) and (2) of Section 5.01(b);

(4)            failure by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary to comply for 60 days after receipt of written notice as provided below with any of its obligations, covenants and agreements contained in this Indenture (other than a Default referred to in clause (1), (2) or (3) above);

(5)           default by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is Guaranteed by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), other than Indebtedness owed to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, whether such Indebtedness or Guarantee now exists or is created after the Issue Date, which default:

(A)            is caused by a failure, after the expiration of the grace period provided in such Indebtedness, to pay principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on such Indebtedness (“Payment Default”); or

(B)            results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its maturity;

and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, exceeds the greater of (i) $100.0 million and (ii) 18.8% of Consolidated EBITDA of the Company for the most recently ended four consecutive fiscal quarters for which financial statements have been delivered (the “Threshold Amount”);

(6)            an involuntary case or other proceeding is commenced against the Company or any Significant Subsidiary with respect to it or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect seeking the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official over it or substantially all of its property, and such involuntary case or other proceeding remains undismissed and unstayed for a period of 60 consecutive days; or an order for relief is entered against the Company or any Significant Subsidiary under the applicable bankruptcy laws as now or hereafter in effect that remains undismissed and unstayed for a period of 60 consecutive days;

(7)            the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries (i) commences a voluntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect with respect to itself, or consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case under any such law, (ii) consents to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator or similar official of the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or for all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or (iii) effects any general assignment for the benefit of creditors;

(8)            failure by the Company or any Significant Subsidiary to pay final and non-appealable judgments aggregating in excess of the Threshold Amount (net of any amounts that are covered by insurance provided by a reputable and creditworthy insurance company), which judgments are not paid, discharged, waived or stayed for a period of 60 consecutive days after such judgments become final;

(9)            any Subsidiary Guarantee of a Significant Subsidiary ceases to be in full force and effect in any material respect (except as contemplated by the terms of this Indenture) or is declared null and void in a judicial proceeding or any Subsidiary Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary denies or disaffirms its obligations under this Indenture or its Subsidiary Guarantee; and

(10)          with respect to any Collateral having a fair market value in excess of $100.0 million, individually or in the aggregate, (i) the failure of the security interest with respect to such Collateral under the Pari Passu Lien Security Documents, at any time, to be perfected or in full force and effect for any reason other than in accordance with their terms or the terms of this Indenture, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements, which failure continues for a period of 30 consecutive days after any Officer of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor becomes aware of such failure and has not been cured during such time period or (ii) the assertion by the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor, in any pleading in any court of competent jurisdiction, that any such security interest is invalid or unenforceable.

(b)                 However, a Default under clause (4) of Section 6.01(a) will not constitute an Event of Default until (1) the Trustee provides written notice to the Company of the Default or the Holders of 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes provide written notice to the Company of the Default, with a copy to the Trustee, and (2) the Company does not cure such Default within the applicable time specified in clause (4) of Section 6.01(a) after receipt of such notice.

Section 6.02.      Acceleration.

(a)                  If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in clauses (6) or (7) of Section 6.01(a)) occurs and is continuing, up to two years following the first public notice or notice to the Trustee of such event, the Trustee by notice in writing specifying the Event of Default and that it is a “notice” to the Company, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes by notice to the Company and the Trustee, may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes to be due and payable; provided that a notice of Default may not be given with respect to any action taken, and reported publicly or to Holders, more than two years prior to such notice of Default. Upon the effectiveness of such a declaration, such principal, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, shall be due and payable immediately.

(b)                 In the event of a declaration of acceleration of the Notes because an Event of Default described in clause (5) of Section 6.01(a) has occurred and is continuing, the declaration of acceleration of the Notes shall be automatically annulled if the Default triggering such Event of Default pursuant to clause (5) of Section 6.01(a) shall be remedied or cured by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary or waived by the holders of the relevant Indebtedness within 20 days after the declaration of acceleration with respect thereto and if the annulment of the acceleration of the Notes would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and all existing Events of Default, except nonpayment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes that became due solely because of the acceleration of the Notes, have been cured or waived.

(c)                  If an Event of Default described in clauses (6) or (7) of Section 6.01(a) occurs and is continuing, the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on all the Notes shall become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders.

(d)                 Any notice of Default, notice of acceleration or instruction to the Trustee to provide a notice of Default, notice of acceleration or take any other action (a “Noteholder Direction”) provided by any one or more Holders (other than a Regulated Bank) (each a “Directing Holder”) must be accompanied by a written representation from each such Holder delivered to the Company and the Trustee that such Holder is not (or, in the case such Holder is DTC or its nominee, that such Holder is being instructed solely by beneficial owners that are not) Net Short (a “Position Representation”), which representation, in the case of a Noteholder Direction relating to the delivery of a notice of Default shall be deemed a continuing representation until the resulting Event of Default is cured or otherwise ceases to exist or the Notes are accelerated. In addition, each Directing Holder is deemed, at the time of providing a Noteholder Direction, to covenant to provide the Company with such other information as the Company may reasonably request from time to time in order to verify the accuracy of such Holder’s Position Representation within five Business Days of request therefor (a “Verification Covenant”). In any case in which the Holder is DTC or its nominee, any Position Representation or Verification Covenant required hereunder shall be provided by the beneficial owner of the Notes in lieu of DTC or its nominee, and DTC shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such Position Representation and Verification Covenant in delivering its direction to the Trustee. In no event shall the Trustee have any liability or obligation to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Person is a Net Short Holder and/or whether such Net Short Holder has delivered any related certifications under this Indenture or in connection with the Notes or if any such certifications comply with this Indenture, the Notes, or any other document. It is understood and agreed that the Company and the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on each representation, deemed representation and certification made by, and covenant of, each Notes beneficial owner provided for in this paragraph. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the Notes or any other document, the provisions of this paragraph shall apply and survive with respect to each Notes beneficial owner notwithstanding that any such Person may have ceased to be a Notes beneficial owner, this Indenture may have been terminated, the Notes may have been redeemed in full or the Trustee may have resigned or been removed.

(e)                 If, following the delivery of a Noteholder Direction, but prior to acceleration of the Notes, the Company determines in good faith that there is a reasonable basis to believe a Directing Holder was, at any relevant time, in breach of its Position Representation and provides to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the Company has initiated litigation in a court of competent jurisdiction seeking a determination that such Directing Holder was, at such time, in breach of its Position Representation, and seeking to invalidate any Event of Default that resulted from the applicable Noteholder Direction, the cure period with respect to such Default shall be automatically stayed and the cure period with respect to such Event of Default shall be automatically reinstituted and any remedy stayed pending a final and non-appealable determination of a court of competent jurisdiction on such matter. If, following the delivery of a Noteholder Direction, but prior to acceleration of the Notes, the Company provides to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that a Directing Holder failed to satisfy its Verification Covenant, the cure period with respect to such Default shall be automatically stayed and the cure period with respect to any Event of Default that resulted from the applicable Noteholder Direction shall be automatically reinstituted and any remedy stayed pending satisfaction of such Verification Covenant. Any breach of the Position Representation shall result in such Holder’s participation in such Noteholder Direction being disregarded; and, if, without the participation of such Holder, the percentage of Notes held by the remaining Holders that provided such Noteholder Direction would have been insufficient to validly provide such Noteholder Direction, such Noteholder Direction shall be void ab initio, with the effect that such Event of Default shall be deemed never to have occurred, acceleration voided and the Trustee shall be deemed not to have received such Noteholder Direction or any notice of such Default or Event of Default.

(f)                  Notwithstanding anything in the preceding clauses (d) and (e) of this Section 6.02 to the contrary, any Noteholder Direction delivered to the Trustee during the pendency of an Event of Default as the result of a bankruptcy or similar proceeding shall not require compliance with the foregoing paragraphs. In addition, for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing paragraphs shall not apply to any Holder that is a Regulated Bank.

(g)                 For the avoidance of doubt, the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any Noteholder Direction delivered to it in accordance with this Indenture, shall have no duty to inquire as to or investigate the accuracy of any Position Representation, enforce compliance with any Verification Covenant, verify any statements in any Officer’s Certificate delivered to it, or otherwise make calculations, investigations or determinations with respect to Derivative Instruments, Net Shorts, Long Derivative Instruments, Short Derivative Instruments or otherwise. The Trustee shall have no liability to the Company, any Holder or any other Person in acting in good faith on a Noteholder Direction.

(h)                 The Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of an Event of Default under and until it obtains actual written notification of such Event of Default describing the circumstances of such and identifying the circumstances constituting such Event of Default. In order to be effective, such written notice must be actually received by a Trust Officer at the Corporate Trust Office; and the notice must state “Notice of Default.”

Section 6.03.      Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue, in its own name or as trustee of an express trust, any available remedy by proceeding at law or in equity to collect the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture. The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding.

Section 6.04.      Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes may, by written notice to the Trustee and on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, waive, rescind or cancel any declaration of an existing or past Default or Event of Default and its consequences under this Indenture if such waiver, rescission or cancellation would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest on, or the principal of, the Notes (other than such nonpayment of principal or interest that has become due as a result of such acceleration). Upon any such waiver, rescission or cancellation, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Section 6.05.      Control by Majority. Subject to Section 7.02(7), the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or that the Trustee determines in good faith is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder (it being 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) or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability; provided, however that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction. Prior to taking any action under this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification from the Holders satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.

Section 6.06.      Limitation on Suits. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee an indemnity or security satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest when due, no Holder may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless:

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

(2)            Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes have requested the Trustee, by notice in writing, to pursue the remedy;

(3)            such Holders have offered the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense;

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

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

Section 6.07.      Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the right of a Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal of or interest on its Note on or after the Stated Maturity thereof, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, may not be impaired or affected without the consent of that Holder. For the avoidance of doubt, no amendment to or deletion of any of the covenants set forth in Article 4 (other than Section 4.01) shall be deemed to impair or affect any rights of holders to receive payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Holder’s Notes.

Section 6.08.      Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default in payment of principal or interest specified in clause (1) or (2) of Section 6.01(a) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust for the whole amount of principal and accrued interest remaining unpaid, together with interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, overdue installments of interest, in each case at the rate specified in the Notes, and such further amount as is sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the compensation of the Trustee and reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

Section 6.09.      Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee may file proofs of claim and other pleadings, papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the compensation of the Trustee or for reasonable expenses, fees, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relating to the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor or their respective creditors or property (including any bankruptcy or insolvency cases or proceedings), and is entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money, securities or other property payable or deliverable upon conversion or exchange of the Notes or upon any such claims. Any debtor-in-possession, custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, if the Trustee consents to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, fees, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agent and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee hereunder. Nothing in this Indenture will be deemed to empower the Trustee to authorize or consent to, or cast a vote with respect to or otherwise 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 6.10.      Priorities. If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article (including upon exercise of remedies with respect to the Collateral), it shall pay out the money in the following order:

First: to the Trustee, the Notes Collateral Agent and the Agent, in each case for all amounts due to it hereunder;

Second: to Holders for amounts then due and unpaid for principal of and interest on the Notes, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal and interest; and

Third: to the Company or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

The Trustee, upon written notice to the Company, may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section.

Section 6.11.      Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted a proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and the proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to the Holder, then, subject to any determination in the proceeding, the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders will be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders will continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

Section 6.12.      Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, a court may require any party litigant in such suit (other than the Trustee) to file an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys fees, against any party litigant (other than the Trustee) in the suit having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.12 does not apply to a suit by a Holder to enforce payment of principal of or interest on any Note on the respective due dates, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes.

Section 6.13.      Rights and Remedies Cumulative. No right or remedy conferred or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders under this Indenture is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and all such rights and remedies are, to the extent permitted by law, cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or exercise of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, will not prevent the concurrent assertion or exercise of any other right or remedy.

Section 6.14.      Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default will impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

Article 7

(c)                 In case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise those 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 his or her own affairs.

(d)                 No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own gross negligent action, its own gross negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, as finally adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction, except that:

(1)            this Subsection shall not be construed to limit the effect of Section 7.01(b);

The Trustee, in its discretion, may make further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it sees fit.

(2)            Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting (except (x) as provided in Sections 2.04, 3.03(e) and 3.04(e) and (y) with respect to an Opinion of Counsel, in connection with the original issuance of any Notes or the execution of any amendment or supplement entered into in connection with adding any Subsidiary Guarantor under this Indenture), it may require an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel conforming to Section 13.03 and the Trustee will not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on the certificate or opinion.

(6)           The Trustee will not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith that it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers or for any action it takes or omits to take in accordance with the direction of the Holders in accordance with Section 6.05 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.

(7)            The Trustee may consult with counsel, and the advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel will be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon.

(8)           The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost of the Company and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation.

(9)           In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, punitive 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.

(10)          The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless a Trust Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof.

(11)         The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder and by the Notes Collateral Agent, and each Agent employed to act hereunder.

(12)         None of the permissive rights of the Trustee to do things enumerated in this Indenture shall be construed as a duty and, with respect to such permissive rights, the Trustee shall not be answerable for other than its gross negligence or willful misconduct, as finally adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction.

(13)         The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the performance of its powers and duties hereunder.

(14)         Neither the Trustee nor the Notes Collateral Agent shall be responsible for, and make no representation as to the existence, genuineness, value or protection of, any Collateral, for the legality, effectiveness or sufficiency of any Security Document or for the creation, perfection, continuation, priority, maintenance, sufficiency or protection of any Liens securing the Notes. Neither the Trustee nor the Notes Collateral Agent shall be responsible for filing any financing or continuation statements or recording any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise perfecting or maintaining the perfection of any Lien or security interest in the Collateral.

Section 7.03.      Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee. Any Agent may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee is subject to Trust Indenture Act Sections 310(b) and 311. For purposes of Trust Indenture Act Section 311(b)(4) and (6):

(a)                 “cash transaction” means any transaction in which full payment for goods or securities sold is made within seven days after delivery of the goods or securities in currency or in checks or other orders drawn upon banks or bankers and payable upon demand; and

(b)                 “self-liquidating paper” means any draft, bill of exchange, acceptance or obligation which is made, drawn, negotiated or incurred for the purpose of financing the purchase, processing, manufacturing, shipment, storage or sale of goods, wares or merchandise and which is secured by documents evidencing title to, possession of, or a lien upon, the goods, wares or merchandise or the receivables or proceeds arising from the sale of the goods, wares or merchandise previously constituting the security, provided the security is received by the Trustee simultaneously with the creation of the creditor relationship arising from the making, drawing, negotiating or incurring of the draft, bill of exchange, acceptance or obligation.

Section 7.04.      Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture, the Notes, the Intercreditor Agreements or the Security Documents, is not accountable for the Company’s use or application of the proceeds from the Notes and  is not responsible for any statement in the Notes other than its certificate of authentication.

Section 7.05.      Notice of Default. If any Default occurs and is continuing and is actually known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall deliver to each Holder notice of the Default within 90 days after it occurs or within 30 days after the Trustee has actual knowledge of the Default, whichever is later. Except in the case of a Default in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note, the Trustee may withhold notice if and so long as the Trustee in good faith determines that withholding notice is in the interests of the Holders.

Section 7.06.      [Reserved].

Section 7.07.      Compensation and Indemnity.

(a)                 The Company will pay the Trustee (acting in any capacity hereunder) compensation as agreed upon with the Trustee in writing between the Company and the Trustee for its services. The compensation of the Trustee is not limited by any law on compensation of a Trustee of an express trust. The Company will reimburse the Trustee (acting in any capacity hereunder) upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee, including the reasonable compensation and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel.

(b)                 The Company shall indemnify the Trustee (acting in any capacity hereunder) for, and hold it harmless against, any loss or liability or expense incurred by it without willful misconduct or negligence on its part, as finally adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this Indenture and the performance of its duties under this Indenture and the Notes, including attorneys’ fees and expenses and the reasonable costs and expenses enforcing this Indenture (including this Section 7.07), of defending itself against any claim whether asserted by any Holder or the Company, or liability and of complying with any process served upon it or any of its officers in connection with the acceptance, exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties under this Indenture and the Notes. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder. The Company shall defend any such claim and the Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to indemnify the Trustee with respect to any settlement made without the consent of the Company, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.

(c)                 To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section, the Trustee (acting in any capacity hereunder) will have a lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, in its capacity as Trustee, except money or property held in trust to pay principal of, and interest on particular Notes.

(d)                 When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(6) or Section 6.01(a)(7), the expenses (including the reasonable charges and expenses of its counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law (including, without limitation under Section 507 of the Bankruptcy Code).

(e)                 The provisions of this Article shall survive the termination of this Indenture.

Section 7.08.      Replacement of Trustee.

(a)                 The Trustee may resign at any time by written notice to the Company.

(1)           The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by written notice to the Trustee.

(2)            If the Trustee is no longer eligible under Section 7.10 or in the circumstances described in Trust Indenture Act Section 310(b), any Holder that satisfies the requirements of Trust Indenture Act Section 310(b) may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

(3)           The Company may remove the Trustee if: the Trustee is no longer eligible under Section 7.10;  the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent; a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or the Trustee becomes incapable of acting.

(4)           A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee will become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section.

(b)                 If the Trustee has been removed by the Holders, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may appoint a successor Trustee with the consent of the Company. Otherwise, if the Trustee resigns or is removed, or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Company will promptly appoint a successor Trustee. If the successor Trustee does not deliver its written acceptance within 30 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company or the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee at the Company’s expense.

(c)                 Upon delivery by the successor Trustee of a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company, the retiring Trustee will transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided for in Section 7.07, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee will become effective, and the successor Trustee will have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. Upon request of any successor Trustee, the Company will execute any and all instruments for fully and vesting in and confirming to the successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts. The Company will give notice of any resignation and any removal of the Trustee and each appointment of a successor Trustee to all Holders, and include in the notice the name of the successor Trustee and the address of its Corporate Trust Office.

(d)                 Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section, the Company’s obligations and the rights protections and indemnities afforded the Trustee under Article 7 will continue for the benefit of any retiring or removed Trustee and the maturity of the Notes and/or termination or discharge of this Indenture.

(e)                 The Trustee agrees to give the notices provided for in, and otherwise comply with, Trust Indenture Act Section 310(b).

Section 7.09.      Successor Trustee by Merger. If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation or national banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation or national banking association without any further act will be the successor Trustee with the same effect as if the successor Trustee had been named as the Trustee in this Indenture without the execution or filing of any instrument or paper or the performance of any further act.

Section 7.10.      Eligibility. This Indenture must always have a Trustee that satisfies the requirements of Trust Indenture Act Section 310(a) and has a combined capital and surplus of at least $25,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition.

Section 7.11.      Money Held in Trust. The Trustee will not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as it may agree with the Company. Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law and except for money held in trust under Article 8.

Section 7.12.      Security Documents; Intercreditor Agreements. By their acceptance of the Notes, the Holders hereby agree to be bound by, and authorize and direct the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent, as the case may be, to execute and deliver, the Intercreditor Agreements and any Security Documents in which the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent, as applicable, is named as a party, including any Security Document executed on or after the Issue Date.

Article 8

Legal Defeasance and Covenant Discharge

Section 8.01.      Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

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

Section 8.02.      Legal Defeasance and Discharge.

Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes and Subsidiary Guarantees on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (“Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (a) and (b) below, to have satisfied all of its other obligations under such Notes, the Subsidiary Guarantees and this Indenture including that of the Subsidiary Guarantors (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), and to have cured all then-existing Events of Default, except for the following provisions 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, or interest or premium, if any, on such Notes when such payments are due from the trust referred to in Section 8.04 hereof;

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

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

(d)                 this Section 8.02.

If the Company exercises the Legal Defeasance option, (a) the Subsidiary Guarantees in effect at such time shall terminate and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged from all of its obligations with respect thereto and (b) the Collateral will be released from the Liens securing the Notes in accordance with the provisions described above.

Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.03 hereof. If the Company exercises its Legal Defeasance option, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default with respect to the Notes.

Section 8.03.      Covenant Defeasance.

Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, terminate and be released from their obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.14, 4.15, 4.16 and 4.17 hereof and clause (3) and (4) of Section 5.01(a) and, clause (1)(b), (1)(c), (1)(d) and (2) of Section 5.01(b) hereof with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof are satisfied (“Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder. For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, Sections 6.01(a)(4), 6.01(a)(5), 6.01(a)(6) (with respect to Significant Subsidiaries only), 6.01(a)(7) (with respect to Significant Subsidiaries only), 6.01(a)(8), 6.01(a)(9) and 6.01(a)(10) shall not constitute Events of Default.

If the Company exercises the Covenant Defeasance option, (a) the Subsidiary Guarantees in effect at such time will terminate and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged from all of its obligations with respect thereto and (b) the Collateral will be released from the Liens securing the Notes in accordance with the provisions described above.

Section 8.04.      Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance.

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

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

(1)            the Company must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable U.S. Government Obligations, or a combination of cash in U.S. dollars and non-callable U.S. Government Obligations, in amounts as shall be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, or interest and premium, if any, on the outstanding Notes on the Stated Maturity or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Company must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to maturity or to a particular redemption date;

(2)           in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that (a) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (b) since the Issue Date, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the beneficial owners of the respective outstanding Notes shall not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and shall 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 has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, the beneficial owners of the respective outstanding Notes shall not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and shall 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 has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit and the grant of any Lien securing such borrowings) or insofar as Events of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds or insolvency events are concerned, at any time in the period ending on the 91st day after the date of deposit;

(5)           the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that, assuming, among other things, no intervening bankruptcy of the Company between the date of deposit and the 91st day following the deposit and assuming that no Holder is an “insider” of the Company under applicable bankruptcy law, after the 91st day following the deposit, the trust funds shall not be subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization of similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally;

(6)            the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Company with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding creditors of the Company or others; and

(7)            the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel (which Opinion of Counsel may be subject to customary assumptions and exclusions), each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, have been complied with.

Section 8.05.      Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations to Be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions.

Subject to Section 8.06 hereof, all money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof in respect of the outstanding 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 or a Subsidiary Guarantor acting as 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, premium and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes.

Anything in this Article 8 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon the request of the Company any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 8.04 hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(1) hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

Section 8.06.      Repayment to the Company.

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

Section 8.07.      Reinstatement.

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any U.S. dollars or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be; provided that, if the Company makes any payment of principal of, premium 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 held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

Section 2.05 hereof shall determine which Notes are considered to be “outstanding” for the purposes of this Section 9.02.

(b)                 Upon the request of the Company and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the consent of the Holders of Notes as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 9.04 and Section 13.03 hereof, as applicable, the Trustee shall join with the Company in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture or other document unless such amended or supplemental indenture or other document directly affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental indenture.

(c)                 It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders of Notes under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. A consent to any amendment, supplement or waiver under this Indenture by any Holder of Notes given in connection with a tender of such Holder’s Notes shall not be rendered invalid by such tender.

(d)                 After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Company shall deliver or mail to the Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment, supplement or waiver; provided that the failure to deliver or mail such notice to all the Holders, or any defect in the notice will not impair or affect the validity of the amendment, supplement or waiver.

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

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

(2)            reduce the stated rate of interest or extend the stated time for payment of interest on any Note;

(3)            reduce the principal of or extend the Stated Maturity of any Note;

(4)            waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on the Notes (except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes with respect to a Payment Default and a waiver of the Payment Default that resulted from such acceleration);

(5)            reduce the premium payable upon the redemption or repurchase of any Note or change the time at which any Note may be redeemed or repurchased under Section 3.01, Section 4.10 and Section 4.14 whether through an amendment or waiver of provisions in the covenants, definitions or otherwise (except amendments to the definition of “Change of Control”) (other than any change to the notice periods with respect to such redemption and provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of Section 4.14 relating to the Company’s obligation to make an offer to repurchase the Notes as a result of a Change of Control may be waived or modified with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding);

(6)            make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the Note;

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

(8)            make any change in the amendment provisions which require each Holder’s consent or in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of Defaults or Events of Default; or

(9)            modify the Subsidiary Guarantees in any manner materially adverse to the Holders of the Notes.

In addition, the consent of the Holders representing at least two-thirds of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes will be required to release the Liens for the benefit of the Notes Secured Parties on all or substantially all of the Collateral, other than in accordance with this Indenture.

Section 9.03.      Revocation and Effect of Consents.

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

Section 9.04.      Trustee and Notes Collateral Agent to Sign Amendments, etc.

The Trustee and Notes Collateral Agent (if applicable) shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent, as applicable. In executing any amendment, supplement or waiver, the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent (if applicable) shall be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01 and Section 7.02 hereof) shall be fully protected in relying upon the documents required by Section 13.03 hereof.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Opinion of Counsel with respect to conditions precedent or as to whether the supplement is authorized or permitted will be required for the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent to execute any amendment or supplement entered into solely in connection with adding Subsidiary Guarantors in the form of Exhibit B hereof.

Article 10
Subsidiary Guarantees

Section 10.01.  Subsidiary Guarantee.

(a)                 Subject to this Article 10, each of the Subsidiary Guarantors shall, jointly and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantee to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Company hereunder or thereunder, that: (a) the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other Obligations of the Company to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder shall be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (b) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same shall be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Subsidiary Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

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

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

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

(e)                 Each Subsidiary 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 or Subsidiary Guarantees, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent transfer” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Notes shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

(f)                 In case any provision of any Subsidiary 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.

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

(h)                 All provisions set forth herein with respect to the Subsidiary Guarantees are subject to the Agreed Security Principles.

Section 10.02.  Limitation on Subsidiary Guarantor Liability.

(a)                 Each Subsidiary Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Subsidiary Guarantee.

(b)                 To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee will be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor (including, without limitation, any Guarantees under the Senior Credit Facilities) that are relevant under such laws and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Subsidiary Guarantor under this Article 10, result in the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under applicable law. Any Subsidiary Guarantor that makes a payment under its Subsidiary Guarantee will be entitled upon payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations under this Indenture to a contribution from each other Subsidiary Guarantor in an amount equal to such other Subsidiary Guarantor’s pro rata portion of such payment based on the respective net assets of all the Subsidiary Guarantors at the time of such payment determined in accordance with GAAP.

Section 10.03.  Execution and Delivery.

To evidence its Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 hereof, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that this Indenture shall be executed on behalf of such Subsidiary Guarantor by an Officer of such Subsidiary Guarantor.

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

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

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

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

Section 10.04.  Subrogation.

Each Subsidiary Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of Holders of Notes against the Company in respect of any amounts paid by any Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.01 hereof; provided that, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Subsidiary 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 10.05. Benefits Acknowledged.

Each Subsidiary Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Indenture and that the guarantee and waivers made by it pursuant to its Subsidiary Guarantee are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

Section 10.06.  Release of Subsidiary Guarantees.

A Subsidiary Guarantee by a Subsidiary Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged, and no further action by such Subsidiary Guarantor, the Company or the Trustee is required for the release of such Subsidiary Guarantor’s Subsidiary Guarantee, upon:

(1)            the occurrence of any sale, exchange, transfer or other disposition (by merger, amalgamation, consolidation or otherwise) of all of the Capital Stock of such Subsidiary Guarantor (including any sale, exchange, transfer or other disposition after which the applicable Subsidiary Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary) or of all or substantially all of the assets and property of such Subsidiary Guarantor, which sale, exchange, transfer or other disposition is made in compliance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture (to the extent such provisions are required to be satisfied as of the date of the transaction); provided that such Subsidiary Guarantor is also released from all of its obligations in respect of the Senior Credit Facilities;

(2)            the release or discharge of such Subsidiary Guarantor from its Guarantee of Indebtedness of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors under the Senior Credit Facilities and the 2027 Notes, except a discharge or release by or as a result of payment under such Guarantee (it being understood that a release subject to a contingent reinstatement is still a release, and that if any such Guarantee is so reinstated, such Subsidiary Guarantee shall also be reinstated to the extent that such Subsidiary Guarantor would then be required to Guarantee the Notes pursuant to this Indenture);

(3)            the designation of any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Subsidiary Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in compliance with Section 4.17;

(4)            upon such Person becoming an Excluded Subsidiary as a result of a transaction or designation permitted by this Indenture;

Satisfaction and Discharge

Section 12.01.  Satisfaction and Discharge.

This Indenture shall be discharged and shall cease to be of further effect (and any Collateral then securing the Notes or any Subsidiary Guarantees shall be released) as to all Notes, when:

(1)            either:

(A)            all Notes that have been authenticated and delivered, except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced pursuant to Section 2.04 or paid and Notes for whose payment money has been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Issuer and thereafter repaid to the Issuer or discharged from trust, have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 12.01 hereof by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Issuer’s and any Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 12.01 hereof; provided that if the Issuer has made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

The Company promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note on each interest payment date, as set forth on the face of this Note, at the rate of 7.750% per annum.

Interest will be payable semiannually (to the Holders of record of the Notes at the close of business on the June 1 or December 1 immediately preceding the interest payment date) on each interest payment date, commencing December 15, 2022.

Interest on this Note will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid on this Note (or, if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest and if this Note is authenticated between a regular record date and the next interest payment date, from such interest payment date) or, if no interest has been paid, from the Issue Date. Interest will be computed in the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

The Company will pay interest on overdue principal, premium, if any, and, to the extent lawful, interest at the interest rate on the Notes.

This is one of the Notes issued under an Indenture dated as of June 14, 2022 (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as Trustee. Capitalized terms used herein are used as defined in the Indenture unless otherwise indicated. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture 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 will control.

The Notes are general senior obligations of the Company, pari passu in right of payment with any existing and future unsubordinated Indebtedness of the Company. The Indenture limits the original aggregate principal amount of the Notes to $500,000,000, but Additional Notes may be issued pursuant to the Indenture, and the originally issued Notes and all such Additional Notes vote together for all purposes as a single class. This Note may be guaranteed as set forth in the Indenture.

This Note is subject to optional redemption, and may be the subject of an Offer to Purchase, as further described in the Indenture. There is no sinking fund applicable to this Note and there is no mandatory redemption applicable to this Note.

The Trustee may require a Holder to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. Pursuant to the Indenture, there are certain periods during which the Trustee will not be required to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Note or certain portions of a Note.

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency), occurs and is continuing, up to two years following the first public notice or notice to the Trustee of such event, the Trustee by notice in writing specifying the Event of Default and that it is a “notice” to the Company, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes by notice to the Company and the Trustee, may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes to be due and payable; provided that a notice of Default may not be given with respect to any action taken, and reported publicly or to Holders, more than two years prior to such notice of Default. Upon the effectiveness of such a declaration, such principal, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, shall be due and payable immediately. If certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company occur and is continuing, the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all of the Notes automatically become due and payable.

The Indenture, the Subsidiary Guarantees or the Notes may be amended or supplemented as provided in the Indenture.

This Note is not valid until the Trustee (or Authenticating Agent) signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this Note.

This Note shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

(b)                The existence of a maximum claim with respect to any real property subject to a mortgage which applies to all Secured Obligations shall not be deemed to be a difference in Collateral among any series, issue or class of Senior Obligations or Second Priority Debt Obligations.

2.5             Perfection of Liens

Except for the limited agreements of the Senior Representatives pursuant to Section 5.5 hereof, none of the Senior Representatives or the Senior Secured Parties shall be responsible for perfecting and maintaining the perfection of Liens with respect to the Shared Collateral for the benefit of the Second Priority Representatives or the Second Priority Debt Parties. The provisions of this Agreement are intended solely to govern the respective Lien priorities as between the Senior Secured Parties and the Second Priority Debt Parties and shall not impose on the Senior Representatives, the Senior Secured Parties, the Second Priority Representatives, the Second Priority Debt Parties or any agent or trustee therefor any obligations in respect of the disposition of Proceeds of any Shared Collateral which would conflict with prior perfected claims therein in favor of any other Person or any order or decree of any court or Governmental Authority or any applicable Law.

2.6             Certain Cash Collateral

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other Senior Debt Documents or Second Priority Debt Documents to the contrary, collateral consisting of cash and cash equivalents (i) specifically pledged to secure Credit Agreement Obligations consisting of reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit or otherwise held by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Sections 2.2, 4.9 and 5.10 of the Credit Agreement (or any equivalent successor provision) or any applicable provision in connection with such pledge or (ii) to the extent the pledge thereof is permitted under the Senior Debt Documents and Second Priority Debt Documents then in effect, specifically pledged to any Second Priority Debt Party or a group of Second Priority Debt Parties to secure only the Second Priority Debt Obligations owing to such Second Priority Debt Parties shall, in each case be applied as specified in the Senior Debt Documents or the Second Priority Debt Documents, as applicable, and will not constitute Shared Collateral; provided, however, that if any Grantor shall fail to pay any of such Secured Obligations owing under such Senior Debt Document or Second Priority Debt Document as and when required thereunder, then the applicable Secured Party agrees that to the extent it seeks to satisfy any such Secured Obligations owing to it, such Secured Party shall first proceed to satisfy such Secured Obligations with the proceeds of any such cash collateral (or any letter of credit or other credit support specifically issued or pledged in favor of such Secured Party to support such Secured Obligations). If, following the application of any such cash collateral, letter of credit or other credit support to the repayment of such Secured Obligations owing to the applicable Secured Party, such Secured Party has not received the full amount of the Secured Obligations then due and owing to it, it shall be entitled to its pro rata share of any Proceeds as, and to the extent, provided in Section 4.1. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to impair the right of any Secured Party to recoup, set off, net or off-set amounts against any cash and cash equivalents (or letter of credit support) that does not constitute Shared Collateral and that was specifically pledged to such Secured Party as provided in this Section 2.6 (including amounts delivered as margin or cash collateral) to the extent permitted under the applicable Senior Debt Document or Second Priority Debt Document, or exercise its rights and remedies with respect to any such cash collateral pledged for its sole benefit or as a beneficiary under and pursuant to any other such credit support issued solely in its favor, each of which will be governed by the terms of such Senior Debt Document or Second Priority Debt Document, as applicable.

ARTICLE 3
Enforcement

3.1             Exercise of Remedies

(a)                So long as the Discharge of Senior Obligations has not occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against any of the Borrower or any other Grantor, (i) neither any Second Priority Representative nor any Second Priority Debt Party will (x) exercise or seek to exercise any rights or remedies (including setoff) with respect to any Shared Collateral in respect of any Second Priority Debt Obligations, or institute any action or proceeding with respect to such rights or remedies (including any action of foreclosure), (y) contest, protest or object to any foreclosure proceeding or action brought with respect to the Shared Collateral or any other Senior Collateral by any Senior Representative or any Senior Secured Party in respect of the Senior Obligations, the exercise of any right by any Senior Representative or any Senior Secured Party (or any agent or sub-agent on their behalf) in respect of the Senior Obligations under any lockbox agreement, control agreement, landlord waiver or bailee’s letter or similar agreement or arrangement to which any Senior Representative or any Senior Secured Party either is a party or may have rights as a third party beneficiary, or any other exercise by any such party of any rights and remedies relating to the Shared Collateral under the Senior Debt Documents or otherwise in respect of the Senior Collateral or the Senior Obligations, or (z) object to the forbearance by the Senior Secured Parties from bringing or pursuing any foreclosure proceeding or action or any other exercise of any rights or remedies relating to the Shared Collateral in respect of Senior Obligations and (ii) except as otherwise provided herein, the Senior Representatives and the Senior Secured Parties shall have the exclusive right to enforce rights, exercise remedies (including setoff, recoupment, and the right to credit bid their debt) and make determinations regarding the release, disposition or restrictions with respect to the Shared Collateral without any consultation with or the consent of or any other action from any Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Debt Party; provided, however, that (A) in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding commenced by or against any of the Borrower or any other Grantor, any Second Priority Representative may file a proof of claim or statement of interest with respect to the Second Priority Debt Obligations under its Second Priority Debt Facility, (B) any Second Priority Representative may take any action (not adverse to the prior Liens on the Shared Collateral securing the Senior Obligations or the rights of the Senior Representatives or the Senior Secured Parties to exercise remedies in respect thereof) in order to create, prove, perfect, preserve or protect (but not enforce) its rights in, and perfection and priority of its Lien on, the Shared Collateral, (C) to the extent not otherwise inconsistent with or in contravention of this Agreement, any Second Priority Representative and the Second Priority Debt Parties may exercise their rights and remedies as unsecured creditors, to the extent as provided in Section 5.4, (D) any Second Priority Representative may exercise the rights and remedies provided for in Section 6.1 and the Second Priority Debt Parties may file any necessary or appropriate responsive or defensive pleadings in opposition to any motion, claim, adversary proceeding or other pleading made by any Person objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims or Liens of the Second Priority Debt Parties or the avoidance of any Second Priority Lien to the extent not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, (E) any Second Priority Debt Party may vote on any plan of reorganization, plan of liquidation, agreement for composition, or other type of plan of arrangement proposed in or in connection with any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding that conforms to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and (F) from and after the Second Priority Enforcement Date, the Designated Second Priority Representative (or a Person authorized by it) may exercise or seek to exercise any rights or remedies (including setoff) with respect to any Shared Collateral in respect of any Second Priority Debt Obligations, or institute any action or proceeding with respect to such rights or remedies (including any action of foreclosure), but only so long as (1) the Designated Senior Representative (or a Person authorized by it) has not commenced and is not diligently pursuing any enforcement action with respect to any or all of the Shared Collateral or (2) the Grantor which has granted a security interest in any Shared Collateral is not then a debtor under or with respect to (or otherwise subject to) any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, in each case (A) through (F) above, to the extent such action is not inconsistent with, or could not result in a resolution inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement. In exercising rights and remedies with respect to the Senior Collateral, the Senior Representatives and the Senior Secured Parties may enforce the provisions of the Senior Debt Documents and exercise remedies thereunder, all in such order and in such manner as they may determine in the exercise of their sole discretion. Such exercise and enforcement shall include the rights of an agent appointed by them to sell or otherwise dispose of Shared Collateral upon foreclosure, to incur expenses in connection with such sale or disposition and to exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured lender under the Uniform Commercial Code or the PPSA of any applicable jurisdiction and of a secured creditor under Bankruptcy Laws, statutory or otherwise, of any applicable jurisdiction.

(b)                So long as the Discharge of Senior Obligations has not occurred, except as expressly provided in the proviso in clause (ii) of Section 3.1(a), each Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and each Second Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility, agrees that it will not take or receive any Shared Collateral or any Proceeds of Shared Collateral in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy (including setoff) with respect to any Shared Collateral in respect of Second Priority Debt Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, unless and until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, except as expressly provided in the proviso in clause (ii) of Section 3.1(a), the sole right of the Second Priority Representatives and the Second Priority Debt Parties with respect to the Shared Collateral is to hold a Lien on the Shared Collateral in respect of Second Priority Debt Obligations pursuant to the Second Priority Debt Documents for the period and to the extent granted therein and to receive a share of the Proceeds thereof, if any, after the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred.

(c)                Subject to the proviso in clause (ii) of Section 3.1(a), (i) each Second Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Second Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility, agrees that neither such Second Priority Representative nor any such Second Priority Debt Party will take any action that would hinder or delay any exercise of remedies undertaken by any Senior Representative or any Senior Secured Party with respect to the Shared Collateral under the Senior Debt Documents, including any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of the Shared Collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise, and (ii) each Second Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Second Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility, hereby waives any and all rights it or any such Second Priority Debt Party may have as a junior lien creditor or otherwise to object to the manner in which the Senior Representatives or the Senior Secured Parties seek to enforce or collect the Senior Obligations or the Liens granted on any of the Senior Collateral, regardless of whether any action or failure to act by or on behalf of any Senior Representative or any other Senior Secured Party is adverse to the interests of the Second Priority Debt Parties.

(d)                Each Second Priority Representative hereby acknowledges and agrees that no covenant, agreement or restriction contained in any Second Priority Debt Document shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of the Senior Representatives or the Senior Secured Parties with respect to the Senior Collateral as set forth in this Agreement and the Senior Debt Documents

(e)                Until the Discharge of Senior Obligations, except as expressly provided in the proviso in clause (ii) of Section 3.1(a), the Designated Senior Representative (or any Person authorized by it) shall have the exclusive right to exercise any right or remedy with respect to the Shared Collateral and shall have the exclusive right to determine and direct the time, method and place for exercising such right or remedy or conducting any proceeding with respect thereto. Following the Discharge of Senior Obligations, the Designated Second Priority Representative (or any Person authorized by it) who may be instructed by the Second Priority Majority Representatives shall have the exclusive right to exercise any right or remedy with respect to the Second Priority Collateral, and the Designated Second Priority Representative (or any Person authorized by it) who may be instructed by the Second Priority Majority Representatives shall have the exclusive right to direct the time, method and place of exercising or conducting any proceeding for the exercise of any right or remedy available to the Second Priority Debt Parties with respect to the Second Priority Collateral, or of exercising or directing the exercise of any trust or power conferred on the Second Priority Representatives, or for the taking of any other action authorized by the Second Priority Collateral Documents; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 3.1(e) shall impair the right of any Second Priority Representative or other agent or trustee acting on behalf of the Second Priority Debt Parties to take such actions with respect to the Second Priority Collateral after the Discharge of Senior Obligations as may be otherwise required or authorized pursuant to any intercreditor agreement governing the Second Priority Debt Parties or the Second Priority Debt Obligations.

3.2             Cooperation

Subject to the proviso in clause (ii) of Section 3.1(a), each Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and each Second Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility, agrees that, unless and until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, it will not commence, or join with any Person (other than the Senior Secured Parties and the Senior Representatives upon the request of the Designated Senior Representative) in commencing, any enforcement, collection, execution, levy or foreclosure action or proceeding with respect to any Lien held by it in the Shared Collateral under any of the Second Priority Debt Documents or otherwise in respect of the Second Priority Debt Obligations.

3.3             Actions upon Breach

Should any Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Debt Party, contrary to this Agreement, in any way take, attempt to take or threaten to take any action with respect to the Shared Collateral (including any attempt to realize upon or enforce any remedy with respect to this Agreement) or fail to take any action required by this Agreement, any Senior Representative or other Senior Secured Party (in its or their own name or in the name of any of the Borrower or any other Grantor) or any of the Borrower may obtain relief against such Second Priority Representative or such Second Priority Debt Party by injunction, specific performance or other appropriate equitable relief. Each Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and each Second Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Facility, hereby (i) agrees that the Senior Secured Parties’ damages from the actions of the Second Priority Representatives or any Second Priority Debt Party may at that time be difficult to ascertain and may be irreparable and waives any defense that any of the Borrower or any other Grantor or the Senior Secured Parties cannot demonstrate damage or be made whole by the awarding of damages and (ii) irrevocably waives any defense based on the adequacy of a remedy at law and any other defense that might be asserted to bar the remedy of specific performance in any action that may be brought by any Senior Representative or any other Senior Secured Party.

ARTICLE 4
Payments

4.1             Application of Proceeds

After an Event of Default (as defined therein) under any Senior Debt Document has occurred and until such Event of Default is cured or waived, so long as the Discharge of Senior Obligations has not occurred and regardless of whether an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has commenced, the Shared Collateral or Proceeds thereof received in connection with the sale or other disposition of, or collection on, such Shared Collateral upon the exercise of remedies shall be applied by the Designated Senior Representative to the Senior Obligations in such order as specified in the relevant Senior Debt Documents (including the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement) until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred. Upon the Discharge of Senior Obligations, each applicable Senior Representative shall deliver promptly to the Designated Second Priority Representative any Shared Collateral or Proceeds thereof held by it in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct, to be applied by the Designated Second Priority Representative to the Second Priority Debt Obligations in such order as specified in the relevant Second Priority Debt Documents.

Unless and until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, any Shared Collateral or Proceeds thereof received by any Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Debt Party in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy (including setoff) relating to the Shared Collateral, (except as otherwise set forth in Article 6) in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, or otherwise in contravention of this Agreement shall be segregated and held in trust for the benefit of and forthwith paid over to the Designated Senior Representative for the benefit of the Senior Secured Parties in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. The Designated Senior Representative is hereby authorized to make any such endorsements as agent for each of the Second Priority Representatives or any such Second Priority Debt Party. This authorization is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

ARTICLE 5
Other Agreements

(a)                Each Second Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Second Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility, agrees that, if in connection with (i) any sale, transfer or other disposition of any Shared Collateral by any Grantor (other than in connection with any enforcement or exercise of rights or remedies with respect to the Shared Collateral which shall be governed by clause (ii)) permitted under the terms of the Senior Debt Documents or consented to by the holders of Senior Obligations under the Senior Debt Documents (other than after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default under the Second Priority Debt Documents) or (ii) the enforcement or exercise of any rights or remedies with respect to the Shared Collateral by a Senior Secured Party, including any sale, transfer or other disposition of Shared Collateral so long as net proceeds of any such Shared Collateral are applied to reduce permanently the Senior Obligations, the Designated Senior Representative, for itself and on behalf of the other Senior Secured Parties releases any of the Senior Liens on any of the Shared Collateral (a “Release”), then the Liens on such Shared Collateral securing any Second Priority Debt Obligations shall be automatically, unconditionally and simultaneously released and each Second Priority Representative shall, for itself and on behalf of the other applicable Second Priority Class Debt Parties and at the sole cost and expense of the Grantors, promptly execute and deliver to the Senior Representative and the applicable Grantors such termination statements, releases, filings, recordings and other documents or instruments as the Senior Representative or any applicable Grantor may reasonably request to effectively confirm such Release; provided that, with respect to clause (ii) above, any proceeds received by the Senior Representatives and any other Senior Secured Parties in excess of those necessary to achieve the Discharge of Senior Obligations shall be distributed in accordance with Section 4.1. Similarly, if the equity interests of any Person are foreclosed upon or otherwise disposed of pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above and in connection therewith the Designated Senior Representative releases the Senior Liens on the Shared Collateral of such Person or releases such Person from its Guarantee of Senior Obligations, then the Second Priority Lien on such property or assets of such Person and such Person’s Guarantee of Second Priority Debt Obligations shall be automatically released to the same extent. Nothing in this Section 5.1(a) will be deemed to affect any agreement of a Second Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of the Second Priority Debt Parties under its Second Priority Debt Facility, to release the Liens on the Second Priority Collateral or to release any Person from its Guarantee of Second Priority Debt Obligations as set forth in the relevant Second Priority Debt Documents.

(b)                Each Second Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Second Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility, hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the each Senior Representative and any officer or agent of any Senior Representative, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Second Priority Representative or such Second Priority Debt Party or in such Senior Representative’s own name, from time to time in the Designated Senior Representative’s discretion, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of Section 5.1(a), to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents, filings, recordings and instruments that may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of Section 5.1(a), including any termination statements, endorsements or other instruments of transfer or release.

(c)                Unless and until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, each Second Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Second Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility, hereby consents to the application, whether prior to or after an Event of Default (as defined in any Senior Debt Document) of Proceeds of Shared Collateral to the repayment of Senior Obligations pursuant to the Senior Debt Documents; provided that nothing in this Section 5.1(c) shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of the Second Priority Representatives or the Second Priority Debt Parties to receive Proceeds in connection with the Second Priority Debt Obligations not otherwise in contravention of this Agreement.

(d)                Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Second Priority Collateral Document, in the event the terms of a Senior Collateral Document and a Second Priority Collateral Document each require any Grantor (i) to make payment in respect of any item of Shared Collateral, (ii) to deliver or afford control over any item of Shared Collateral to, or deposit any item of Shared Collateral with, (iii) to register ownership of any item of Shared Collateral in the name of or make an assignment of ownership of any Shared Collateral or the rights thereunder to, (iv) cause any securities intermediary, commodity intermediary or other Person acting in a similar capacity to agree to comply, in respect of any item of Shared Collateral, with instructions or orders from, or to treat, in respect of any item of Shared Collateral, as the entitlement holder, (v) hold any item of Shared Collateral in trust for (to the extent such item of Shared Collateral cannot be held in trust for multiple parties under applicable Law), (vi) obtain the agreement of a bailee or other third party to hold any item of Shared Collateral for the benefit of or subject to the control of or, in respect of any item of Shared Collateral, to follow the instructions of or (vii) obtain the agreement of a landlord with respect to access to leased premises where any item of Shared Collateral is located or waivers or subordination of rights with respect to any item of Shared Collateral in favor of, in any case, both any Senior Representative and any Second Priority Representative or Second Priority Debt Party, such Grantor may, until the applicable Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, comply with such requirement under the Second Priority Collateral Document as it relates to such Shared Collateral by taking any of the actions set forth above only with respect to, or in favor of, the Designated Senior Representative.

Unless and until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, the Designated Senior Representative and the Senior Secured Parties shall have the sole and exclusive right, subject to the rights of the Grantors under the Senior Debt Documents, (a) to adjust settlement for any insurance policy covering the Shared Collateral in the event of any loss thereunder and (b) to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding affecting the Shared Collateral, in each case in accordance with the Senior Debt Documents. Unless and until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, all Proceeds of any such policy and any such award, if in respect of the Shared Collateral, shall be paid (i) first, prior to the occurrence of the Discharge of Senior Obligations, to the Designated Senior Representative for the benefit of Senior Secured Parties pursuant to the terms of the Senior Debt Documents, (ii) second, after the occurrence of the Discharge of Senior Obligations, to the Designated Second Priority Representative for the benefit of the Second Priority Debt Parties pursuant to the terms of the applicable Second Priority Debt Documents, and (iii) third, if no Second Priority Debt Obligations or Senior Obligations are outstanding, to the owner of the subject property, such other Person as may be entitled thereto or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. If any Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Debt Party shall, at any time, receive any Proceeds of any such insurance policy or any such award in contravention of this Agreement, it shall pay such Proceeds over to the Designated Senior Representative in accordance with the terms of Section 4.2.

(a)                The Senior Debt Documents may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified in accordance with their terms, and the Senior Obligations may be Refinanced or replaced, in whole or in part, in each case, without the consent of any Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Debt Party, all without affecting the Lien priorities provided for herein or the other provisions hereof; provided, however, that, without the consent of the Second Priority Majority Representatives, no such amendment, restatement, supplement, modification or Refinancing (or successive amendments, restatements, supplements, modifications or Refinancings) shall contravene any provision of this Agreement.

(b)                Without the prior written consent of the Senior Representatives, no Second Priority Debt Document may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, or entered into, and no Debt under the Second Priority Debt Documents may be Refinanced, to the extent such amendment, restatement, supplement or modification or Refinancing, or the terms of such new Second Priority Debt Document, would contravene the provisions of this Agreement. The Borrower agrees to deliver to the Designated Senior Representative copies of (i) any amendments, restatements, supplements or other modifications to the Second Priority Collateral Documents and (ii) any new Second Priority Collateral Documents promptly after effectiveness thereof; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the effectiveness and validity thereof. Each Second Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Second Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility, agrees that each Second Priority Collateral Document under its Second Priority Debt Facility shall include the following language (or language to similar effect reasonably approved by the Designated Senior Representative):

“Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) the liens and security interests granted to the [Second Priority Representative] pursuant to this Agreement are expressly subject and subordinate to the liens and security interests granted in favor of the Senior Secured Parties (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement referred to below), including liens and security interests granted to ROYAL BANK OF CANADA, as Administrative Agent, pursuant to or in connection with the Credit Agreement, dated as of October 5, 2017 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time), among MAXAR TECHNOLOGIES INC., as borrower (the “Borrower”), the lending institutions from time to time parties thereto, ROYAL BANK OF CANADA, as the Administrative Agent, and the other parties thereto, and the liens and security interests granted to Wilmington Trust, N.A., as Notes Collateral Agent, pursuant to or in connection with the Indenture, dated as of [ ] (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time), among the Borrower, as issuer, Wilmington Trust, N.A., as the Trustee, and the other parties thereto and (ii) the exercise of any right or remedy by the [Second Priority Representative] hereunder is subject to the limitations and provisions of the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement dated as of [            ] (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Intercreditor Agreement”), among the Borrower, the other grantors party thereto from time to time, ROYAL BANK OF CANADA, as the Senior Representative for the Credit Agreement Secured Parties, Wilmington Trust, N.A., as Senior Representative for the Initial Additional Senior Debt Secured Parties, [            ], as Initial Second Priority Representative and each additional Second Priority Representative and Senior Representative from time to time party thereto. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and the terms of this Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern.”

(c)                In the event that each applicable Senior Representative and/or the Senior Secured Parties enter into any amendment, restatement, waiver or consent in respect of any of the Senior Collateral Documents for the purpose of adding to or deleting from, or waiving or consenting to any departures from any provisions of, any Senior Collateral Document or changing in any manner the rights of the Senior Representatives, the Senior Secured Parties, the Borrower or any other Grantor thereunder (including the release of any Liens in Senior Collateral) in a manner that is applicable to all Senior Facilities, then such amendment, restatement, waiver or consent shall apply automatically to any comparable provision of each comparable Second Priority Collateral Document without the consent of any Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Debt Party and without any action by any Second Priority Representative, the Company or any other Grantor; provided, however, that (i) no such amendment, restatement, waiver or consent shall (A) remove assets subject to the Second Priority Liens or release any such Liens, except to the extent that such release is permitted or required by Section 5.1(a) and provided that there is a substantially concurrent release of the corresponding Senior Liens or (B) impose duties that are adverse on any Second Priority Representative without its prior written consent and (ii) written notice of such amendment, restatement, waiver or consent shall have been given to each Second Priority Representative within ten (10) days after the effectiveness of such amendment, restatement, waiver or consent; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the effectiveness and validity thereof.

(d)                The Borrower agrees to deliver to each of the Designated Senior Representative and the Designated Second Priority Representative copies of (i) any material amendments, restatements, supplements or other modifications to the material Senior Debt Documents or the material Second Priority Debt Documents and (ii) any new material Senior Debt Documents or material Second Priority Debt Documents promptly after effectiveness thereof.

The Second Priority Representatives and the Second Priority Debt Parties may exercise rights and remedies as unsecured creditors against any Borrower and any other Grantor in accordance with the terms of the Second Priority Debt Documents and Law so long as such rights and remedies do not violate or are not otherwise inconsistent with any other provision of this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by any Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Debt Party of the required payments of principal, premium, interest, fees and other amounts due under the Second Priority Debt Documents so long as such receipt is not the direct or indirect result of the exercise by a Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Debt Party of rights or remedies in respect of Shared Collateral in contravention of this Agreement. In the event any Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Debt Party becomes a judgment lien creditor in respect of Shared Collateral as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor in respect of Second Priority Debt Obligations, such judgment lien shall be subordinated to the Liens securing Senior Obligations on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Second Priority Debt Obligations are so subordinated to such Liens securing Senior Obligations under this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall impair or otherwise adversely affect any rights or remedies the Senior Representatives or the Senior Secured Parties may have with respect to the Senior Collateral.

(a)                Each Senior Representative acknowledges and agrees that if it shall at any time hold a Lien securing any Senior Obligations on any Shared Collateral that can be perfected by the possession, control, or notation, of such Shared Collateral or of any account in which such Shared Collateral is held, and if such Shared Collateral or any such account is in fact in the possession or under the control of, or notation, in the name of, such Senior Representative, or of agents or bailees of such Person (such Shared Collateral being referred to herein as the “Pledged or Controlled Collateral”), or if it shall at any time obtain any landlord waiver or bailee’s letter or any similar agreement or arrangement granting it rights or access to Shared Collateral, the applicable Senior Representative shall also hold such Pledged or Controlled Collateral, or take such actions with respect to such landlord waiver, bailee’s letter or similar agreement or arrangement, as sub-agent or gratuitous bailee (such bailment being intended, among other things, to satisfy the requirements of Section 8-301(a)(2) and 9-313(c) of the Uniform Commercial Code, to the extent applicable) for the relevant Second Priority Representatives, in each case solely for the purpose of perfecting the Liens granted under the relevant Second Priority Collateral Documents and subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.5.

(b)                In the event that any Senior Representative (or its agents or bailees) has Lien filings against Intellectual Property that is part of the Shared Collateral that are necessary for the perfection of Liens in such Shared Collateral, such Senior Representative agrees to hold such Liens as sub-agent and gratuitous bailee (such bailment being intended, among other things, to satisfy the requirements of Section 8-301(a)(2) and 9-313(c) of the Uniform Commercial Code, to the extent applicable) for the relevant Second Priority Representatives and any assignee thereof, solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Liens pursuant to the relevant Second Priority Collateral Documents, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.5.

(c)                Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, the Senior Representatives and the Senior Secured Parties shall be entitled to deal with the Pledged or Controlled Collateral in accordance with the terms of the Senior Debt Documents as if the Liens under the Second Priority Collateral Documents did not exist. The rights of the Second Priority Representatives and the Second Priority Debt Parties with respect to the Pledged or Controlled Collateral shall at all times be subject to the terms of this Agreement.

(d)                The Senior Representatives and the Senior Secured Parties shall have no obligation whatsoever to the Second Priority Representatives or any Second Priority Debt Party to assure that any of the Pledged or Controlled Collateral is genuine or owned by the Grantors or to protect or preserve rights or benefits of any Person or any rights pertaining to the Shared Collateral, except as expressly set forth in this Section 5.5. The duties or responsibilities of the Senior Representatives under this Section 5.5 shall be limited solely to holding, controlling, or being notated on, the Shared Collateral and the related Liens referred to in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 5.5 as sub-agent and gratuitous bailee (such bailment being intended, among other things, to satisfy the requirements of Section 8-301(a)(2) and 9-313(c) of the Uniform Commercial Code, to the extent applicable) for the relevant Second Priority Representative for purposes of perfecting the Lien held by such Second Priority Representative.

(e)                The Senior Representatives shall not have by reason of the Second Priority Collateral Documents or this Agreement, or any other document, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Debt Party, and each Second Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Second Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility, hereby waives and releases the Senior Representatives from all claims and liabilities arising pursuant to the Senior Representatives’ roles under this Section 5.5 as sub-agents and gratuitous bailees with respect to the Shared Collateral.

(f)                 Upon the Discharge of Senior Obligations, each applicable Senior Representative shall, at the Grantors’ sole cost and expense, (i) (A) deliver to the Designated Second Priority Representative, to the extent that it is legally permitted to do so, all Shared Collateral, including all Proceeds thereof, held or controlled by such Senior Representative or any of its agents or bailees, including the transfer of possession and control, as applicable, of the Pledged or Controlled Collateral, together with any necessary endorsements and notices to depositary banks, securities intermediaries and commodities intermediaries, and assign its rights under any landlord waiver or bailee’s letter or any similar agreement or arrangement granting it rights or access to Shared Collateral, or (B) direct and deliver such Shared Collateral as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct, (ii) notify any applicable insurance carrier that it is no longer entitled to be a loss payee or additional insured under the insurance policies of any Grantor issued by such insurance carrier, and (iii) notify any governmental authority involved in any condemnation or similar proceeding involving any Grantor that the Designated Second Priority Representative is entitled to approve any awards granted in such proceeding. The Borrower and the other Grantors shall take such further action as is required to effectuate the transfer contemplated hereby and shall indemnify each Senior Representative for loss or damage suffered by such Senior Representative as a result of such transfer, except for loss or damage suffered by any such Person as a result of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. The Senior Representatives have no obligations to follow instructions from any Second Priority Representative or any other Second Priority Debt Party in contravention of this Agreement. No Senior Representative shall have any liability to any Second Priority Debt Party.

(g)                None of the Senior Representatives nor any of the other Senior Secured Parties shall be required to marshal any present or future collateral security for any obligations of the Borrower or any Subsidiary to any Senior Representative or any Senior Secured Party under the Senior Debt Documents or any assurance of payment in respect thereof or to any Second Priority Debt Party, or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of their rights in respect of such collateral security or any assurance of payment in respect thereof shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights, however existing or arising.

If, at any time substantially concurrently with or after the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, the Borrower or any other Grantor consummates any Refinancing or incurs any Senior Obligations (other than in respect of the payment of indemnities surviving the Discharge of Senior Obligations), then such Discharge of Senior Obligations shall automatically be deemed not to have occurred for all purposes of this Agreement (other than with respect to any actions taken prior to the date of such designation as a result of the occurrence of such first Discharge of Senior Obligations) and the applicable agreement governing such Senior Obligations shall automatically be treated as a Senior Debt Document for all purposes of this Agreement, including for purposes of the Lien priorities and rights in respect of Shared Collateral set forth herein and the agent, representative or trustee for the holders of such Senior Obligations shall be a Senior Representative for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon receipt of notice of such incurrence (including the identity of the new Senior Representative), each Second Priority Representative (including the Designated Second Priority Representative) shall promptly (a) enter into such documents and agreements (at the expense of the Borrower), including amendments, restatements or supplements to this Agreement, as the Borrower or such new Senior Representative shall reasonably request in writing in order to provide the new Senior Representative the rights of a Senior Representative contemplated hereby, (b) deliver to such Senior Representative, to the extent that it is legally permitted to do so, all Shared Collateral, including all Proceeds thereof, held or controlled by such Second Priority Representative or any of its agents or bailees, including the transfer of possession and control, as applicable, of the Pledged or Controlled Collateral, together with any necessary endorsements and notices to depositary banks, securities intermediaries and commodities intermediaries, and assign its rights under any landlord waiver or bailee’s letter or any similar agreement or arrangement granting it rights or access to Shared Collateral and (c) notify any governmental authority involved in any condemnation or similar proceeding involving a Grantor that the new Senior Representative is entitled to approve any awards granted in such proceeding.

Without prejudice to the enforcement of the Senior Secured Parties’ remedies, the Senior Secured Parties agree that following (a) the acceleration of the Senior Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Senior Debt Documents or (b) the commencement of an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding (each, a “Purchase Event”), within thirty (30) days of the Purchase Event, one or more of the Second Priority Debt Parties may request, and the Senior Secured Parties hereby offer the Second Priority Debt Parties the option, to purchase all, but not less than all, of the aggregate amount of outstanding Senior Obligations outstanding at the time of purchase at par, plus any premium that would be applicable upon prepayment of the Senior Obligations and accrued and unpaid interest, fees, and expenses without warranty or representation or recourse (except for representations and warranties required to be made by the Credit Agreement Secured Parties which are assigning lenders pursuant to the Assignment and Acceptance (as such term is defined in the Credit Agreement)). If such right is exercised, the parties shall endeavor to close promptly thereafter but in any event within ten (10) Business Days of the request. If one or more of the Second Priority Debt Parties exercise such purchase right, it shall be exercised pursuant to documentation mutually acceptable to each of the Senior Representative and the applicable Second Priority Representatives, subject to any consent rights of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement or any applicable Senior Debt Document. If none of the Second Priority Debt Parties timely exercise such right, the Senior Secured Parties shall have no further obligations pursuant to this Section 5.7 for such Purchase Event and may take any further actions in their sole discretion in accordance with the Senior Debt Documents and this Agreement.
