As provided for in Exhibit A hereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Securities which may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is unlimited.  All Securities shall be substantially identical in all respects other than issue prices, issuance dates and denominations.  The Securities may be issued in one or more series; provided, however, that any Securities issued with original issue discount (“OID”) for Federal income tax purposes shall not be issued as part of the same series as any Securities that are issued with a different amount of OID or are not issued with OID.

Subject to Section 2.03, the Trustee shall authenticate Initial Securities for original issue on the Issue Date in the aggregate principal amount of $600,000,000.  With respect to any Securities issued after the Issue Date (except for Securities authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for, or in lieu of, Initial Securities pursuant to Section 2.07, 2.09 or 3.06 or Exhibit A), there shall be established in or pursuant to a resolution of the Board of Directors, and subject to Section 2.03, set forth, or determined in the manner provided in an Officers’ Certificate, or established in one or more indentures supplemental hereto, prior to the issuance of such Securities:

(a)           whether such Securities shall be issued as part of a new or existing series of Securities and the title of such Securities (which shall distinguish the Securities of the series from Securities of any other series);

(b)           the aggregate principal amount of such Securities that may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture (which shall be calculated without reference to any Securities authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other

20

Securities of the same series pursuant to Section 2.07, 2.09 or 3.06 or Exhibit A or any Securities which, pursuant to Section 2.03, are deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder);

(c)           the issue price and issuance date of such Securities, including the date from which interest on such Securities shall accrue;

(e)           if applicable, that such Securities shall not be issued in the form of Initial Securities or Additional Securities, but shall be issued in the form of Private Exchange Securities or Exchange Securities.

If any of the terms of any series are established by action taken pursuant to a resolution of the Board of Directors, a copy of an appropriate record of such action shall be certified by the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary of the Company and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Officers’ Certificate or the trust indenture supplemental hereto setting forth the terms of the series.

Section 2.02.        Form and Dating.

Provisions relating to the Securities are set forth in Exhibit A, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made part of this Indenture.  The Securities of each series and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form of Appendix I to Exhibit A which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Indenture.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Securities offered and sold to QIBs in reliance on Rule 144A shall include the form of assignment set forth in Appendix I to Exhibit A and Securities offered and sold in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S (other than Initial Securities offered on the Issue Date) shall include the form of certificate set forth in Exhibit B.  The Securities of each series may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule, agreements to which the Company is subject, if any, or usage; provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company.  Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.  The terms of the Securities of each series set forth in Appendix I to Exhibit A are part of the terms of this Indenture.

Section 2.03.        Execution and Authentication.

Two Officers (or one Officer and the Vice President and Secretary of the Company) shall sign the Securities for the Company by manual or facsimile signature.

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

At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a written order of the Company in the form of an Officers’ Certificate for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, and the Trustee in accordance with such written order of the Company shall authenticate and deliver such Securities.

21

A Security shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on the Security.  The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Security has been authenticated under this Indenture.

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent reasonably acceptable to the Company to authenticate the Securities.  Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate Securities whenever the Trustee may do so.  Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent.  An authenticating agent has the same rights as any Registrar, Paying Agent or agent for service of notices and demands.

The Trustee shall not be required to authenticate such Securities if the issue thereof will adversely affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties, indemnities or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture.

Section 2.04.        Registrar and Paying Agent.

The Company shall maintain an office or agency where Securities may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the “Registrar”) and an office or agency where Securities may be presented for payment (the “Paying Agent”).  The Registrar shall keep a register of the Securities and of their transfer and exchange.  The Company may have one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents.  The term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent and “Registrar” includes any co-registrar.

The Company shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Registrar or Paying Agent not a party to this Indenture, which shall incorporate the terms of the TIA.  The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent.  The Company shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of any such agent.  If the Company fails to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 7.07.  The Company or any of its domestic Wholly Owned Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent, Registrar or transfer agent.

The Company initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar and Paying Agent in connection with the Securities.

Section 2.05.        Paying Agent To Hold Money in Trust.  Prior to each due date of the principal and interest on any Security, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such principal and interest so becoming due.  The Company shall require each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to agree in writing that the Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of or interest on the Securities and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Company or any Guarantor in making any such payment.  If the Company or a domestic Wholly Owned Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money held by it as Paying Agent and hold it as a separate trust fund.  The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by the Paying Agent.  Upon complying with this Section, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company or a domestic Wholly Owned Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the Trustee.

Section 2.06.        Holder Lists.  The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Holders and shall otherwise comply with TIA Section 312(a).  If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company on its own behalf and on the behalf of each of the Guarantors shall furnish to the Trustee, in writing at least five Business Days before each interest payment date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the

22

names and addresses of Holders and the Company and the Guarantors shall otherwise comply with TIA Section 312(a).

Section 2.07.        Replacement Securities.  If a mutilated security is surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder of a Security claims that such Security has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Security if the requirements of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code are met and the Holder satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Trustee.  If required by the Trustee or the Company, such Holder shall furnish an indemnity bond sufficient in the judgment of the Company and the Trustee to protect the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar and any co-registrar from any loss which any of them may suffer if a Security is replaced.  The Company and the Trustee may charge the Holder for their expenses in replacing a Security.

Every replacement Security is an additional obligation of Company.

Section 2.08.        Outstanding Securities.  Securities outstanding at any time are all Securities authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this Section as not outstanding.  A Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Security.

If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee and the Company receive proof satisfactory to them that the replaced Security is held by a protected purchaser.

If the Paying Agent segregates and holds in trust, in accordance with this Indenture, on a redemption date or maturity date money sufficient to pay all principal and interest payable on that date with respect to the Securities (or portions thereof) to be redeemed or maturing, as the case may be, and the Paying Agent is not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders on that date pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, then on and after that date such Securities (or portions thereof) cease to be outstanding and interest, on them ceases to accrue.

Section 2.09.        Temporary Securities.  Until definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Securities.  Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of definitive Securities but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Securities.  Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Securities and deliver them in exchange for temporary Securities.  After the preparation of definitive Securities, the temporary Securities shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities upon surrender of the temporary Securities at any office or agency maintained by the Company for that purpose and such exchange shall be without charge to the Holder.  Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery in exchange therefor, one or more definitive Securities representing an equal principal amount of Securities.  Until so exchanged, the Holder of temporary Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as a Holder of definitive Securities.

Section 2.10.        Cancellation.  The Company at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee for cancellation.  The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment.  The Trustee and no one else shall cancel (subject to the record retention requirements of the Exchange Act) all Securities surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation and deliver cancelled Securities to the Company upon a written direction of the Company.  Except as expressly permitted herein, the Company may not issue new Securities to replace Securities it has redeemed, paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

23

If the Company or any Guarantor acquires any of the Securities, such acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of the Indebtedness represented by such Securities unless and until the same are surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation pursuant to this Section 2.10.  The Company may not issue new Securities to replace Securities it has paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for any reason other than in connection with a registration of transfer or exchange of such Securities.

At such time as all beneficial interests in a Global Security have either been exchanged for definitive Securities, transferred, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, such Global Security shall be returned by DTC to the Trustee for cancellation or retained and canceled by the Trustee.  At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Security is exchanged for definitive Securities, transferred in exchange for an interest in another Global Security, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, the principal amount of Securities represented by such Global Security shall be reduced and an adjustment shall be made on the books and records of the Trustee (if it is then the Securities Custodian for such Global Security) with respect to such Global Security, by the Trustee or the Securities Custodian, to reflect such reduction.

Section 2.11.        Defaulted Interest.  If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Securities, the Company shall pay the defaulted interest (plus interest on such defaulted interest at the rate borne by the Securities to the extent lawful) in any lawful manner.  The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Security and the date (not less than 30 days after such notice) of the proposed payment (the “Special Interest Payment Date”), and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such defaulted interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such defaulted interest as in this clause provided.  Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a record date (the “Special Record Date”) for the payment of such defaulted interest, which date shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the Special Interest Payment Date and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment.  The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date, and in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such defaulted interest and the Special Record Date and Special Interest Payment Date therefor to be given in the manner provided for in Section 13.02, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date.  Notice of the proposed payment of such defaulted interest and the Special Record Date and Special Interest Payment Date therefor having been so given, such defaulted interest shall be paid on the Special Interest Payment Date to the Persons in whose names the Securities (or their respective predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable.

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

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

Section 2.12.        CUSIP Numbers, Common Codes or ISINs.  The Company in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” numbers, “Common Codes” or “ISINs” (if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers, “Common Codes” or “ISINs” in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that neither the Company nor the Trustee shall have any

24

responsibility for any defect in the “CUSIP” number, “Common Code” or “ISIN” that appears on any Security, check, advice of payment or redemption notice, and any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers.  The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the CUSIP number, Common Code or ISIN.

Section 2.13.        Computation of Interest.  Interest on the Securities shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

ARTICLE III

The Company shall give notice to the Trustee provided for in this Section 3.01 at least 45 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date unless the Trustee consents to a shorter period.  Such notice shall be accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel from the Company to the effect that such redemption will comply with the conditions herein.

Section 3.02.        Selection of Securities To Be Redeemed.  If less than all the Securities are to be redeemed at any time, not more than 60 days prior to the redemption date, the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed pro rata, by lot or by any other method that complies with applicable legal and securities exchange requirements, if any, and that the Trustee in its sole discretion deems fair and appropriate and in accordance with methods generally used at the time of selection by fiduciaries in similar circumstances.  The Trustee shall make the selection from outstanding Securities not previously called for redemption.  The Trustee may select for redemption portions of the principal of Securities that have denominations larger than $2,000.  Securities and portions of them the Trustee selects shall be in amounts of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 (but in any event not less than $2,000).  Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Securities called for redemption also apply to portions of Securities called for redemption.  The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of the Securities or portions of Securities to be redeemed.

Section 3.03.        Notice of Redemption.  At least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a date for redemption of Securities, the Company shall send a notice of redemption electronically or by first-class mail, with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder of Securities to the address of such Holder appearing in the security register or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of DTC.  Notice of any redemption upon any Equity Offering may be given prior to the completion of the related Equity Offering.

The notice shall identify the Securities (or portion thereof) to be redeemed (including CUSIP numbers if any) and shall state:

(a)           the redemption date;

(b)           the redemption price;

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

25

(d)           that Securities called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price;

(e)           if fewer than all the outstanding Securities are to be redeemed, or if a Security is to be redeemed in part only, the identification and principal amounts of the particular Securities (or portion thereof) to be redeemed;

(f)            that, unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment or the Paying Agent is prohibited from making such payment pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, interest on Securities (or portion thereof) called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date; and

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

At the Company’s written request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense.  In such event, the Company shall provide the Trustee with the information required by this Section at least 45 days before the redemption date, unless the Trustee consents to a shorter period.

Section 3.04.        Effect of Notice of Redemption.  Once notice of redemption is mailed, Securities called for redemption become due and payable on the redemption date and at the redemption price stated in the notice.  Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Securities shall be paid at the redemption price stated in the notice, plus accrued interest to the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the related interest payment date that is on or prior to the date of redemption).  Failure to give notice or any defect in the notice to any Holder shall not affect the validity of the notice to any other Holder.

Section 3.05.        Deposit of Redemption Price.  Prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the redemption date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or, if the Company or a domestic Wholly Owned Subsidiary is the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the related interest payment date that is on or prior to the date of redemption) on all Securities to be redeemed on that date other than Securities or portions of Securities called for redemption that have been delivered by the Company to the Trustee for cancellation.

Section 3.06.        Securities Redeemed in Part.  Upon surrender and cancellation of a Security that is redeemed in part, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder (at the Company’s expense) a new Security equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Security surrendered.

ARTICLE IV

27

Section 4.05.        Limitation on Consolidated Indebtedness.

(a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, Incur any Indebtedness unless after giving effect to such event on a pro forma basis, the Company’s Consolidated EBITDA Ratio for the four full fiscal quarters immediately preceding such event for which internal financial statements are available, taken as one period, is greater than or equal to 2.00 to 1.00 (such condition not being applicable to the Incurrence of Permitted Indebtedness).

(b)           For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.05, in the event that an item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of one or more of the categories of Permitted Indebtedness or is entitled to be Incurred pursuant to the ratio set forth in Section 4.05(a) hereof, the Company is entitled to Incur such Indebtedness in part under any combination thereof, and the Company shall, in its sole discretion, classify or reclassify, or later divide, classify or reclassify, such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this Section 4.05; provided that all Indebtedness outstanding on the Issue Date under the Credit Agreement shall be deemed to have been incurred on the Issue Date pursuant to clause (2) of the definition of “Permitted Indebtedness” and the Company shall not be permitted to later reclassify all or any portion of such Indebtedness outstanding on the Issue Date under the Credit Agreement.

Section 4.06.        Limitation on Restricted Payments.

(a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly:

(i)            declare or pay any dividend on, or make any distribution in respect of, any shares of the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s Capital Stock (excluding dividends or distributions payable in shares of the Company’s Capital Stock or in options, warrants or other rights to purchase such Capital Stock, but including dividends or distributions payable in Redeemable Capital Stock or in options, warrants or other rights to purchase Redeemable Capital Stock (other than dividends on such Redeemable Capital Stock payable in shares of such Redeemable Capital Stock)) held by any Person other than the Company or any of its Wholly Owned Subsidiaries; or

The foregoing restriction shall not apply to Liens securing Senior Indebtedness of the Company or any Guarantor.

Any Lien created for the benefit of Holders of the Securities pursuant to this Section 4.07 shall be deemed automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of each of the Liens described in clauses (i) and (ii) in the preceding paragraph.

Section 4.08.        Limitation on Transactions with Affiliates.

(a)           The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, enter into or suffer to exist any transaction or series of related transactions (including, without limitation, the sale, purchase, exchange or lease of assets, property or services) with any Affiliate of the Company (other than a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Company) involving aggregate consideration in excess of $10.0 million, unless: (i) such transaction or series of transactions is on terms that are no less favorable to the Company or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, than would be available at the time of such transaction or series of transactions in a comparable transaction in an arm’s-length dealing with an unaffiliated third party; (ii) such transaction or series of transactions is in the best interests of the Company; and (iii) with respect to a transaction or series of transactions involving aggregate payments equal to or greater than $50.0 million, a majority of disinterested members of the Board of Directors determines that such transaction or series of transactions complies with clauses (i) and (ii) above, as evidenced by a Board Resolution.

(iv)          the payment of compensation (including amounts paid pursuant to employee benefit plans) for the personal services of officers, directors and employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; and

(v)           the existence of, or the performance by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of its obligations under the terms of, any agreements that are described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 or the Parent’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (file number 333-190904) and any amendments thereto; provided, however, that the existence of, or the performance by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of its obligations under, any future amendment to such agreements shall only be permitted by this clause (v) to the extent that the terms of any such amendment, taken as a whole, are not more disadvantageous to the Holders of the Securities in any material respect than the terms of such agreements in effect on the Issue Date.

Section 4.09.        Limitation on Senior Subordinated Indebtedness.  The Company will not Incur any Indebtedness that is subordinate or junior in right of payment to any Senior Indebtedness and senior in right of payment to the Securities.  No Guarantor will Incur any Indebtedness that is subordinate or junior in right of payment to any Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor and senior in right of payment to such Guarantor’s Subsidiary Guarantee.

Section 4.10.        Future Guarantors.  After the Issue Date, the Company will cause each Subsidiary which guarantees obligations under the Credit Agreement, the Existing Notes or any other Indebtedness of the Company or any Guarantor to execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture, within 30 days of the date of such Subsidiary’s guarantee of such other Indebtedness, pursuant to which such Guarantor will unconditionally Guarantee, on a joint and several basis, the full and prompt payment of the principal of, premium, if any, interest and Special Interest, if any, on the Securities on a senior subordinated basis.  Each Subsidiary Guarantee will be limited to an amount not to exceed the maximum amount that can be guaranteed by that Subsidiary without rendering the Subsidiary Guarantee as it relates to such Subsidiary, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Guarantor is released and discharged in full from its obligations under its Guarantees of (a) the Credit Agreement and related documentation and (b) all other Indebtedness of the Company and its Subsidiaries, then the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged.

Section 4.11.        Change of Control.  Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, unless the Company has previously or concurrently delivered a redemption notice (that may only be conditional upon the occurrence of such Change of Control) with respect to all the outstanding Securities pursuant to Section 3.03 herein, the Company will be required to make an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) to purchase all outstanding Securities at a purchase price (the “Change of Control Purchase Price”) equal to 101% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date).

Within 30 days following the date upon which the Change of Control occurred, the Company must send, electronically or by first class mail to the address of such Holder appearing in the security register or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of the Depository, a notice to each Holder,

with a copy to the Trustee, which notice shall govern the terms of the Change of Control Offer.  Such notice will state, among other things, the purchase date, which must be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed, other than as may be required by law (the “Change of Control Payment Date”).  The Change of Control Offer is required to remain open for at least 20 Business Days and until the close of business on the Change of Control Payment Date.

The Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control if (i) 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 Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer, (ii) a notice of redemption to the Holders of the Securities has been given pursuant to the Indenture pursuant to Section 3.03 herein or (iii) in the event that upon the consummation of such Change of Control, the Company defeases or discharges the Securities as provided for under Article Seven herein.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditional upon such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of making of the Change of Control Offer.

In the event that the Company makes a Change of Control Offer to purchase the Securities pursuant to this Section 4.11, the Company will comply with any applicable securities laws and regulations, including any applicable requirements of Section 14(e) of, and Rule 14e-1 under, the Exchange Act.

Section 4.12.        Provision of Financial Information.

(a)           Notwithstanding that the Company may not be subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15 (d) of the Exchange Act, the Company shall file with the SEC and provide the Trustee and the Holders with such annual reports and such information, documents and other reports as are specified in Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act and applicable to a U.S. corporation subject to such Sections, such information, documents and reports to be so filed and provided at the times specified for the filing of such information, documents and reports under such Sections; provided, however, (i) that the Company shall not be so obligated to file such information, documents and reports with the SEC if the SEC does not permit such filings but shall still be obligated to provide such information, documents and reports to the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and (ii) that the Company’s obligations under this Section 4.12 shall be satisfied with respect to financial information relating to the Company by furnishing annual and quarterly reports prepared by the Parent and filed with the Commission; provided that the same is accompanied by consolidating financial information that explains in reasonable detail the differences between the information relating to the Parent, on the one hand, and the information relating to the Company and the Subsidiaries on a standalone basis, on the other hand.  Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from any information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates).

(b)           In addition, unless it is then subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13(d) or 15 of the Exchange Act, the Company will, upon request, furnish to any prospective purchaser of Securities or beneficial owner of Securities in connection with any sale thereof the information required by Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act, until such time as the Company has either exchanged the Securities for the Exchange Securities or until such time as the Holders thereof have disposed of such Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement.

Section 4.13.        Statement as to Compliance.  The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year ending after the date hereof, a brief certificate of its principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer stating whether, to such officer’s knowledge, the Company is in compliance with all covenants and conditions to be complied with by it under this Indenture in accordance with TIA Section 314(a)(4).  For purposes of this Section 4.13, such compliance shall be determined without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice under this Indenture.

When a Default has occurred and is continuing or if the Trustee, any Holder or the trustee for or the holder of any other evidence of Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary gives any notice or takes any other action with respect to a claimed Default, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate specifying such Default, notice or other action within 10 Business Days of its occurrence.

Section 4.14.        Waiver of Certain Covenants.  The Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with any covenant or condition set forth in Sections 4.03 to 4.11 and Section 4.12(a), if before the time for such compliance, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding shall, by written direction of such Holders, waive such compliance in such instance with such covenant or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such covenant or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such covenant or condition shall remain in full force and effect.

Section 4.15.        Further Instruments and Acts.  Upon request of the Trustee, the Company shall execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purpose of this Indenture.

Section 4.16.        Payment for Consent.  The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration, whether by way of interest, fee or otherwise, to any Holder for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture or the Securities unless such consideration is offered to be paid to all Holders that so consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment of consideration for, or as an inducement to, any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture, the Securities or any Guarantees in connection with an exchange offer, the Company and any of its Subsidiaries may exclude (i) Holders or beneficial owners of the Securities that are not “qualified institutional buyers” as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act, “non-U.S. Persons” as defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act, or institutional “accredited investors” as defined in subparagraphs (a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Rule 501 under the Securities Act and (ii) Holders or beneficial owners of the Securities in any jurisdiction (other than the United States) where the inclusion of such Holders or beneficial owners would require the Company or any such Subsidiary to comply with the registration requirements or other similar requirements under any securities laws of such jurisdiction, or the solicitation of such consent, waiver or amendment from, or the granting of such consent or waiver, or the approval of such amendment by, Holders or beneficial owners in such jurisdiction would be unlawful, in each case as determined by the Company in its sole discretion.

Section 6.02.        Acceleration; Rescission and Annulment.

(a)           If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(h), (i) or (j)) occurs and is continuing, then and in every such case the Trustee, by notice to the Company, or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities outstanding, 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 Securities to be due and payable; provided, however, that so long as any Indebtedness permitted to be incurred pursuant to the Credit Agreement shall be outstanding (including letters of credit and bankers’ acceptances), any such acceleration shall not become effective until the earlier of: (i) five (5) Business Days following delivery of written notice to the Company and the agent under the Credit Agreement; and (ii) the acceleration of any such Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement.  If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(h), (i) or (j) occurs and is continuing, then the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, all the Securities shall automatically become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.  The Company will deliver to the Trustee, within 10 days after the occurrence thereof, notice of any default or acceleration referred to in Sections 6.01(d) and 6.01(e).

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

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

37

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

(B)                               all overdue interest (including Special Interest) on all Securities;

(C)                               the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Securities that has become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and interest thereon at the rate borne by the Securities; and

(D)                               to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest at the rate borne by the Securities; and

(ii)           all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of principal of the Securities which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 6.04.

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

(c)           Notwithstanding clause (b) above, in the event of a declaration of acceleration in respect of the Securities because an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(e) shall have occurred and be continuing, such declaration of acceleration shall be automatically annulled if the Indebtedness that is the subject of such Event of Default (i) is Indebtedness in the form of an operating lease entered into by the Company or its Subsidiaries after May 21, 1998 and required to be reflected on a consolidated balance sheet pursuant to EITF 97-10 or any subsequent pronouncement having similar effect, (ii) has been discharged or the holders thereof have rescinded their declaration of acceleration in respect of such Indebtedness, and (iii) written notice of such discharge or rescission, as the case may be, shall have been given to the Trustee by the Company and countersigned by the holders of such Indebtedness or a trustee, fiduciary or agent for such holders, within 30 days after such declaration of acceleration in respect of the Securities, and no other Event of Default has occurred during such 30-day period which has not been cured or waived during such period.

Section 6.03.        Other Remedies.  If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal of or interest on the Securities or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Securities or this Indenture.

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Securities or does not produce any of them in the proceeding.  A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default.  No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy.  All available remedies are cumulative.

Section 6.04.        Waiver of Past Defaults.  Subject to Section 6.02, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may waive an existing Default and its consequences except (a) a Default in the payment of the principal of or interest on a Security, (b) a Default arising from a failure to make or consummate a Change of Control Offer in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.11, or (c) a Default in respect of a provision that under Section 9.02 cannot be amended without the consent of each Holder affected.  When a Default is waived, it is deemed cured, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any consequent right.

Section 6.05.        Control by Majority.  The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding

38

for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Securities.  However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or, subject to Section 7.01, that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders or would involve the Trustee in personal liability; provided, however, that subject to Section 315 of the TIA, the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction.  Prior to taking any action hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to reasonable indemnification against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.

Section 6.06.        Limitation on Suits.  A Holder may not pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Securities unless:

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

(b)           the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding shall have made a written request, and such Holder of or Holders shall have offered reasonably satisfactory indemnity against any costs, liabilities or expenses (including attorneys’ fees) to be incurred in compliance with such request, to the Trustee to pursue such proceeding as trustee; and

(c)           the Trustee has failed to institute such proceeding and has not received from the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, within 60 days after such notice, request and offer.

The foregoing limitations on the pursuit of remedies by a Holder shall not apply to a suit instituted by a Holder of Securities for the enforcement of payment of the principal of or interest on such Security on or after the applicable due date specified in such Security.  A Holder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder.

Section 6.07.        Rights of Holders to Receive Payment.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of and interest on the securities held by such Holder, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Securities, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

Section 6.08.        Collection Suit by Trustee.  If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a) or (b) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company for the whole amount then due and owing (together with interest on any unpaid interest to the extent lawful) and the amounts provided for in Section 7.07.

Section 6.09.        Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.  The Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company, its creditors or its property and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may vote on behalf of the Holders in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing similar functions, and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07.

39

Section 6.10.        Priorities.  If the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article Six, it shall pay out the money or property in the following order:

FIRST: to the Trustee for amounts due under Section 7.07;

SECOND: to holders of Senior Indebtedness to the extent required by Article Ten;

THIRD: to Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the securities for principal and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Securities for principal and interest respectively; and

FOURTH: to the Company.

The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section.  At least 15 days before such record date, the Company shall mail to each Holder and the Trustee a notice that states the record date, the payment date and amount to be paid.

Section 6.11.        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 in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant.  This Section does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.07 or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities.

Section 6.12.        Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws.  The Company (to the extent it may lawfully do so) shall not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

ARTICLE VII

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

Section 7.05.        Notice of Defaults.  If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if it is known to a Trust Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it is known to a Trust Officer or written notice of it is received by the Trustee.  Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of or interest on any Security, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Holders.

Section 7.06.        Reports by Trustee to Holders.  As promptly as practicable after each December 31 beginning with December 31, 2015, and in any event prior to March 31 in each year thereafter, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder a brief report dated as of March 31 each year that complies with TIA Section 313(a), if and to the extent required by such subsection.  The Trustee shall also comply with TIA Section 313(b) and (c).

42

A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Holders shall be filed with the SEC and each stock exchange (if any) on which the Securities are listed.  The Company agrees to notify promptly the Trustee whenever the Securities become listed on any stock exchange and of any delisting thereof.

Section 7.07.        Compensation and Indemnity.  The Company shall pay to the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee from time to time such compensation for its services as shall from time to time be agreed to in writing by the Company and the Trustee.  The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust.  The Company shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, in addition to the compensation for its services.  Such expenses shall include the documented compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts.  The Company shall indemnify the Trustee against any and all loss, liability or expense (including documented attorneys’ fees) incurred by it in connection with the acceptance and administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder.  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 the claim and the Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel.  The Company need not reimburse any expenses or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Trustee through the Trustee’s own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.  The Company need not pay for any settlement made by the Trustee without the Company’s consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.  All indemnifications and releases from liability granted hereunder to the Trustee shall extend to its officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns.

To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee other than money or property held in trust to pay principal of and interest on particular Securities.

The Company’s payment obligations pursuant to this Section shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee and the discharge of this Indenture.  When the Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 6.01(h), (i) or (j) with respect to the Company, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under the Bankruptcy Law.

The provisions of this Section shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee and the termination of this Indenture.

Section 7.08.        Replacement of Trustee.  The Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Company.  The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and may appoint a successor Trustee.  The Company shall remove the Trustee if:

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

(b)           the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;

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

(d)           the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

If the Trustee resigns, is removed by the Company or by the Holders a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding and such Holders do not reasonably promptly appoint a successor Trustee, or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason (the Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Trustee), the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee.

43

A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company.  Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture.  The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Holders.  The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided for in Section 7.07.

If a successor Trustee does not take office within 30 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee or the Holders of 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

Section 7.09.        Successor Trustee by Merger.  If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation or banking association without any further act shall be the successor Trustee.  In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture any of the Securities shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Securities so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Securities shall not have been authenticated; any such successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Securities either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Securities or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have.

Section 7.10.        Eligibility; Disqualification.  The Trustee shall at all times satisfy the requirements of TIA Section 310(a).  The Trustee shall have (or, in the case of a corporation included in a bank holding company system, the related bank holding company shall have) a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its (or its related bank holding company’s) most recent published annual report of condition.  The Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 310(b), subject to the penultimate paragraph thereof; provided, however, that there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA Section 310(b)(1) any indenture or indentures under which other securities or certificates of interest or participation in other securities of the Company are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA Section 310(b)(1) are met.

For purposes of this Section 7.10 and clause (i) of the first proviso contained in TIA Section 310(b); the indenture, dated as of December 15, 2010, as amended, among AMC Entertainment Inc. and U.S. Bank National Association providing for the issuance of the 9.75% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2020; and the indenture, dated as of February 7, 2014, as amended, among AMC Entertainment Inc. and U.S. Bank National Association providing for the issuance of the 5.875% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2022 are hereby deemed to be specifically described.

Section 7.11.        Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company.  The Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA Section 311(6): A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA Section 311(a) to the extent indicated.

44

ARTICLE VIII

Discharge of Indenture; Defeasance

Section 8.01.        Discharge of Liability on Securities; Defeasance.

(a)           When (i) either (A) all outstanding Securities that have been authenticated (other than Securities replaced pursuant to Section 2.07 and Securities for whose payment money has been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the Company) have been delivered by the Company to the Trustee for cancellation or (B) all outstanding Securities that have not been delivered by the Company to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable, whether at Maturity or upon redemption or will become due and payable within one year or are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption pursuant to Article Three and the Company irrevocably deposits or causes to be deposited with the Trustee funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest (including Special Interest, if any) to the date of Maturity or redemption; (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or shall occur as a result of such deposit and such deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other instrument to which the Company or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Company or any Guarantor is bound; (iii) the Company or any Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by it under this Indenture and the Securities; and (iv) the Company has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under this Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of such Securities at Maturity or the redemption date, as the case may be, then upon demand of the Company (accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, at the cost and expense of the Company, to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent specified herein relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with) this Indenture shall cease to be of further effect with respect to the Securities and the Trustee shall acknowledge satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

(b)           Subject to Sections 8.01(c) and 8.02, the Company may, at its option, and at any time elect to terminate (i) all of its and the Guarantors’ obligations under the Securities, the Subsidiary Guarantees and this Indenture (“legal defeasance option”) or (ii) its and the Guarantors’ obligations under Section 5.01(c) and Sections 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, and 4.12 and the operation of Section 6.01(c) (with respect to an Event of Default due to a failure to meet obligations under Section 5.01(c)) and Sections 6.01(d), (e), (f) and (g) (“covenant defeasance option”).  The Company may exercise its legal defeasance option notwithstanding its prior exercise of its covenant defeasance option.

If the Company exercises its legal defeasance option, payment of the Securities may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default.  If the Company exercises its covenant defeasance option, payment of the Securities may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.01(d) (with respect to Sections 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12(a) and 5.01(c)), (e), (f) or (g).

Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein and upon request of the Company, the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of those obligations that the Company terminates.

(c)           Notwithstanding subsections (a) and (b) above, the Company’s obligations in Sections 2.03, 2.04, 2.05, 2.06, 2.07, 2.08, 2.09, 4.01, 4.02, 4.03, 4.13, 7.07, 7.08, 8.03, 8.04, 8.05 and 8.06

45

Section 8.02.        Conditions to Defeasance.  The Company may exercise its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option only if:

(a)           The Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee satisfying the requirements of Section 7.10 who shall agree to comply with the provisions of this Article Eight applicable to it) as trust funds in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities, cash in U.S. Dollars, non-callable Government Securities or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge and which shall be applied by the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee) to pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest (including any Special Interest) on the outstanding Securities on the Stated Maturity (or redemption date, if applicable) of such principal (and premium, if any) or installment of interest; provided that the Trustee shall have been irrevocably instructed to apply such money or the proceeds of such Government Securities to said payments with respect to the Securities.  Before such a deposit, the Company may give the Trustee, in accordance with Section 3.01 hereof, a notice of its election to redeem all of the outstanding Securities at a future date in accordance with Article Three, which notice shall be irrevocable;

(b)           No Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or, insofar as Section 6.01(h), (i) or (j) is concerned, at any time during the period ending on the 91st day after the date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such period);

(c)           the deposit does not constitute a default hereunder or under any other material agreement binding on the Company and is not prohibited by Article Ten;

(d)           the Company delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the trust resulting from the deposit does not constitute, or is qualified as, a regulated investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940;

(e)           in the case of the legal defeasance option, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (i) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (ii) since the date of this Indenture 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 Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. Federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance and will be subject to U.S. Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such defeasance had not occurred;

(f)            in the case of the covenant defeasance option, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. Federal income tax purposes as a result of such covenant defeasance and will be subject to 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; and

(g)           the Company delivers to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to the defeasance and discharge of the Securities as contemplated by this Article Eight have been complied with.

46

Section 8.03.        Application of Trust Money.

The Trustee shall hold in trust money or Government Securities deposited with it pursuant to this Article Eight.  It shall apply the deposited money and the money from Government Securities through the Paying Agent and in accordance with this Indenture to the payment of principal of and interest on the Securities.  Money and Securities so held in trust are not subject to Article Ten.

Section 8.04.        Repayment to Company.  The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall promptly turn over to the Company upon request any excess money or securities held by them at any time.

Subject to any applicable abandoned property law, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Company upon request any money held by them for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest that remains unclaimed for two years, and, thereafter, Holders entitled to the money must look to the Company for payment as general creditors.

Section 8.05.        Indemnity for Government Obligations.  The Company shall pay and shall indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against deposited Government Securities or the principal and interest received on such Government Securities.

Section 8.06.        Reinstatement.  If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with this Article Eight by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company’s obligations under this Indenture and the Securities shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article Eight until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or Government Securities in accordance with this Article Eight; provided, however, that, if the Company has made any payment of interest on or principal of any Securities because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money or Government Securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

ARTICLE IX

Amendments

Section 9.01.        Without Consent of Holders.  The Company and the Trustee may amend this Indenture or the Securities without notice to or consent of any Holder:

(a)           to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency;

(b)           to comply with Article Five;

(c)           to provide for uncertificated Securities in addition to or in place of certificated Securities; provided, however, that the uncertificated Securities are issued in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of Title 26 of the United States Code or in a manner such that the uncertificated Securities are described in Section 163(f)(2)(B) of Title 26 of the United States Code;

47

(h)           to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder.

An amendment under this Section may not make any change that adversely affects the rights under Article Ten of any Holder of Senior Indebtedness then outstanding unless the holders of such Senior Indebtedness (or their Representative) consent to such change.

After an amendment under this Section becomes effective, the Company shall mail to Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment.  The failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section.

Section 9.02.        With Consent of Holders.  The Company and the Trustee may modify or amend this Indenture or the Securities without notice to any Holder but with the written consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the Securities).  However, without the consent of each Holder affected thereby, a modification or amendment may not:

(a)           change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any installment of interest (including Special Interest) on, any Security, or reduce the principal amount thereof or the rate of interest (including Special Interest, if any) thereon or any premium payable upon the redemption thereof, or change the coin or currency in which the principal of any Security or any premium or the interest (including Special Interest) thereon is payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment after the Stated Maturity thereof (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the redemption date);

(b)           reduce the amount of, or change the coin or currency of, or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of, the Change of Control Purchase Price;

(c)           reduce the percentage in principal amount of the outstanding Securities, the consent of whose Holders is required for any such supplemental indenture, or the consent of whose Holders is required for any waiver (of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and their consequences) provided for in this Indenture;

(d)           modify any of the provisions of this Section or Sections 6.04, 6.07 and 4.13, except to increase the percentage of outstanding Securities the consent of whose Holders is required for such actions or to provide that certain other provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each Security affected thereby; or

(e)           modify any of the provisions of this Indenture relating to the subordination of the Securities in a manner adverse to any Holder.

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

An amendment under this Section may not make any change that adversely affects the rights under Article Ten of any Holder of Senior Indebtedness then outstanding unless the holders of such Senior Indebtedness (or their Representative) consent to such change.

After an amendment under this Section becomes effective, the Company shall mail to Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment.  The failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section.

Section 9.03.        Compliance with Trust Indenture Act.  Every amendment to this Indenture or the Securities shall comply with the TIA as then in effect.

48

Section 9.04.        Revocation and Effect of Consents and Waivers.  A consent to an amendment or a waiver by a Holder of a Security shall bind the Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Security or portion of the Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security, even if notation of the consent or waiver is not made on the Security.  However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent or waiver as to such Holder’s Security or portion of the Security if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date the amendment or waiver becomes effective.  After an amendment or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder.  An amendment or waiver becomes effective upon the execution of such amendment or waiver by the Trustee.

The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to give their consent or take any other action described above or required or permitted to be taken pursuant to this Indenture.  Such record date shall be a date not more than 30 days prior to the first solicitation of Holders generally in connection therewith and no later than the date such solicitation is completed.  If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the immediately preceding paragraph or Section 316(c) of the TIA, those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent previously given or to take any such action, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date.  No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 180 days after such record date.

For all purposes of this Indenture, all Initial Securities, Additional Securities of the same series, Exchange Securities for the same series of Securities and Private Exchange Securities for the same series of Securities shall vote together as one series of Securities under this Indenture.

Section 9.05.        Notation on or Exchange of Securities.  If an amendment changes the terms of a Security, the Trustee may require the Holder of the Security to deliver such Security to the Trustee.  The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Security regarding the changed terms and return such Security to the Holder.  Alternatively, if the Company or the Trustee so determines, the Company in exchange for the Security shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Security that reflects the changed terms.  Failure to make the appropriate notation or to issue a new Security shall not affect the validity of such amendment.

Section 9.06.        Trustee To Sign Amendments.  The Trustee shall sign any amendment authorized pursuant to this Article Nine if the amendment does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee.  If it does, the Trustee may but need not sign it.  In signing such amendment the Trustee shall be entitled to receive indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it and to receive, in addition to the documents required by Section 13.04 and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Indenture.

ARTICLE X

Subordination

Section 10.01.      Agreement To Subordinate.  The Company covenants and agrees, and each Holder of a Security, by his acceptance thereof, likewise covenants and agrees, that, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth in this Article, the Obligations in respect of the Securities (the “Securities Obligations”) are hereby expressly made subordinate and postponed to and subject in right of payment as provided in this Article to the prior payment in full in cash or Cash Equivalents of all Senior Indebtedness, The Securities shall in all respects rank pari passu with the Existing Notes and any future senior subordinated Indebtedness and senior to all existing and future junior subordinated Indebtedness of the Company, and only Senior Indebtedness shall rank senior to the Securities in

49

accordance with the provisions set forth herein.  All provisions of this Article Ten shall be subject to Section 10.11.

This Article Ten shall constitute a continuing offer to all Persons who, in reliance upon such Article, become holders of, or continue to hold, Senior Indebtedness, and such provisions are made for the benefit of the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and such holders are made obligee hereunder and they or each of them may enforce such provisions.

Section 10.02.      Liquidation, Dissolution, Bankruptcy.  In the event of (a) any insolvency or bankruptcy case or proceeding, or any receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar case or proceeding in connection therewith, relative to the Company or to its assets, whether voluntary or involuntary from any source, (b) any liquidation, dissolution or other winding-up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary and whether or not involving insolvency or bankruptcy, or (c) any assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other marshaling of assets or liabilities of the Company, then and in any such event:

(i)            the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall receive payment in full in cash or Cash Equivalents of all amounts due on or in respect of all Senior Indebtedness, or provision shall be made for such payment in full in cash or Cash Equivalents to the satisfaction of the holders of Senior Indebtedness, before the Holders of the Securities are entitled to receive any payment or distribution of any kind or character from any source (other than Permitted Junior Securities) on account of the Securities Obligations or on account of the purchase or redemption or other acquisition of Securities; and

(ii)           any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character from any source, whether in cash, property or securities (other than a payment or distribution in the form of Permitted Junior Securities), including by way of set-off or enforcement of any guarantee or otherwise, which the Trustee or the Holders would be entitled to receive but for the provisions of this Article shall be paid by the liquidating trustee or agent or other person making such payment or distribution, whether a trustee in bankruptcy, a receiver or liquidating trustee or otherwise, directly to the holders of Senior Indebtedness or their authorized representative or representatives or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any of such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, ratably according to the aggregate amounts remaining unpaid on account of the Senior Indebtedness held or represented by each, to the extent necessary to make payment in full in cash or Cash Equivalents of all Senior Indebtedness of the Company remaining unpaid, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution, or provision therefor to the satisfaction of the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, to or for the holders of such Senior Indebtedness; and

(iii)          any taxes that have been withheld or deducted from any payment or distribution in respect of the Securities, or any taxes that ought to have been withheld or deducted from any such payment or distribution that have been remitted to the relevant taxing authority, shall not be considered to be an amount that a Holder or the Trustee is entitled to receive for the purposes of Section 10.02(ii).

The consolidation of the Company with, or the merger of the Company into, another Person or the liquidation or dissolution of the Company following the conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposal of its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to another Person upon the terms and conditions set forth in Article Five shall not be deemed a dissolution, winding-up, liquidation, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of creditors or marshaling of assets and liabilities of the Company for the purposes of this Section if the Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is merged or the Person which acquires such assets substantially as an entirety, as the case

50

may be, shall, as a part of such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, lease or disposal, comply with the conditions set forth in Article Five.

Section 10.03.                  Default on Senior Indebtedness.

(a)                                 Unless Section 10.02 shall be applicable, upon (i) the occurrence of a Payment Default and (ii) receipt by the Trustee from the Company or a holder of Senior Indebtedness of written notice of such occurrence, no payment (other than any payments made pursuant to the provisions contained in Section 8.03 from monies or Government Securities previously deposited with the Trustee) or distribution of any assets of the Company of any kind or character from any source, whether in cash, property or securities (other than Permitted Junior Securities), shall be made by the Company including by way of set-off or enforcement of any guarantee or otherwise, on account of the Securities Obligations or on account of the purchase, redemption, deposit for defeasance or other acquisition of Securities unless and until such Payment Default shall have been cured or waived in writing or shall have ceased to exist or such Senior Indebtedness shall have been discharged or paid in full in cash or Cash Equivalents, after which the Company shall resume making any and all required payments in respect of the Securities, including any missed payments.

(b)                                 Unless Section 10.02 shall be applicable, upon (i) the occurrence of a Non-Payment Default and (ii) receipt by the Trustee from an authorized representative of the holders of Designated Senior Indebtedness of written notice of such occurrence, then no payment (other than any payments made pursuant to the provisions contained in Section 8.03 from monies or Government Securities previously deposited with the Trustee) or distribution of any assets of the Company of any kind or character from any source, whether in cash, property or securities (other than Permitted Junior Securities), shall be made by the Company including by way of set-off or enforcement of any guarantee or otherwise, on account of the Securities Obligations or on account of the purchase, redemption, deposit for defeasance or other acquisition of Securities for a period (the “Payment Blockage Period”) commencing on the date of receipt by the Trustee of such notice from an authorized representative of the holders of Designated Senior Indebtedness or the Company at the direction of such representative unless and until (subject to any blockage of payments that may then be in effect under subsection (a) of this Section) (w) more than 179 days shall have elapsed since receipt of such written notice by the Trustee, (x) such Non-Payment Default shall have been cured or waived in writing or shall have ceased to exist, (y) such Designated Senior Indebtedness has been discharged or paid in full in cash or Cash Equivalents or (z) such Payment Blockage Period shall have been terminated by written notice to the Trustee from an authorized representative of the holders of Designated Senior Indebtedness initiating such Payment Blockage Period or from the holders of at least a majority in principal amount of such Designated Senior Indebtedness), after which, in the case of clause (w), (x), (y) or (z), the Company shall resume making any and all required payments in respect of the Securities, including any missed payments.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, in no event shall a Payment Blockage Period extend beyond 179 days from the date of the receipt by the Trustee of the notice referred to in clause (ii) above (the “Initial Blockage Period”).  No more than one Payment Blockage Period may be commenced during any period of 365 consecutive days.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, no event of default with respect to Designated Senior Indebtedness which existed or was continuing on the date of the commencement of any Payment Blockage Period initiated by an authorized representative of the holders of Designated Senior Indebtedness for such Designated Senior Indebtedness shall be, or be made, the basis for the commencement of a second Payment Blockage Period for such Designated Senior Indebtedness, whether or not within the Initial Blockage Period, unless such event of default shall have been cured or waived for a period of not less than 90 consecutive days.

(c)                                  In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, the Company shall make any payment to the Trustee (which is not paid over to Holders of Securities) prohibited by the foregoing provisions of this Section, then and in such event such payment shall be

51

paid over to the authorized representatives of such Designated Senior Indebtedness initiating the Payment Blockage Period, to be held in trust for distribution to the holders of Senior Indebtedness or, to the extent amounts are not then due in respect of Senior Indebtedness, promptly returned to the Company, or otherwise as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct.  The Trustee shall not be liable for any interest on any money received by it.

Section 10.04.                  Payment Permitted.  Nothing contained in this Article or elsewhere in this Indenture or in any of the Securities shall prevent the Company, at any time except during the pendency of any event referred to in clause (a), (b) or (c) of Section 10.02 or under the conditions described in Section 10.03, from making payments at any time of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on the Securities.

Section 10.05.                  Subrogation.  After all Senior Indebtedness is paid in full and until the Securities are paid in full, Holders shall be subrogated (equally and ratably with the holders of all indebtedness of the Company which by its express terms is subordinated and postponed to Senior Indebtedness to the same extent as the Securities are subordinated and postponed and which is entitled to like rights of subrogation) to the rights of holders of Senior Indebtedness to receive distributions applicable to Senior Indebtedness.  A distribution made under this Article Ten to holders of Senior Indebtedness that otherwise would have been made to Holders is not, as between the Company and Holders, a payment by the Company on such Senior Indebtedness.

Section 10.06.                  Relative Rights.  This Article Ten defines the relative rights of Holders and holders of Senior Indebtedness.  Nothing in this Indenture shall:

(a)                                 impair, as between the Company and Holders, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay principal of and interest on the Securities in accordance with their terms; or

(b)                                 affect the relative rights against the Company of Holders and creditors of the Company other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness; or

(c)                                  except as set forth in Section 6.02, prevent the Trustee or any Holder from exercising its available remedies upon a Default or an Event of Default, subject to the rights of holders of Senior Indebtedness to receive distributions otherwise payable to Holders.

Section 10.07.                  Subordination May Not Be Impaired by Company.

(a)                                 No right of any holder of Senior Indebtedness to enforce the subordination of the Indebtedness evidenced by the Securities shall be impaired by any act or failure to act by the Company or by its failure to comply with this Indenture.

(b)                                 Without in any way limiting the generality of subsection (a) of this Section, the holders of Senior Indebtedness may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to the Trustee or the Holders of the Securities, without incurring responsibility to the Holders of the Securities and without impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this Article or the obligations hereunder of the Holders of the Securities to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, do any one or more of the following:

(i)                                     change the manner, place or terms of payment or extend the time of payment of, or renew or alter, the terms of Senior Indebtedness or the terms of any instrument evidencing the same or any agreement under which Senior Indebtedness is outstanding (including any increase in the aggregate principal amount of any indebtedness thereunder, it being understood that any such additional indebtedness shall not constitute Senior Indebtedness to the extent Incurred in violation of Section 4.05 of this Indenture);

52

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

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

(iv)                              exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Company and/or any other Person.

(c)                                  If the Trustee on behalf of the Holders or any Holders should fail to file a proof of claim in any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding relating to the Company at least 30 days before the expiration of the time to file such claim or claims, each holder of Senior Indebtedness (or its representative) is hereby authorized to file an appropriate claim for and on behalf of all or any of the Holders.

Section 10.08.                  Rights of Trustee and Paying Agent.  Notwithstanding Section 10.03, the Trustee or Paying Agent may continue to make payments on the Securities and shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of facts that would prohibit the making of any such payments unless, not less than one Business Day prior to the date of such payment, a Trust Officer receives notice satisfactory to it that payments may not be made under this Article Ten.  The Company, the Registrar or co-registrar, the Paying Agent, a Representative or a holder of Senior Indebtedness may give the notice; provided, however, that, if an issue of Senior Indebtedness has a Representative, only the Representative may give the notice.

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

Section 10.09.                  Distribution or Notice to Representative.

Whenever a distribution is to be made or a notice given to holders of Senior Indebtedness, the distribution may be made and the notice given to their Representative (if any).

Section 10.10.                  Article Ten Not To Prevent Events of Default or Limit Right To Accelerate.  The failure to make a payment pursuant to the Securities by reason of any provision in this Article Ten shall not be construed as preventing the occurrence of a Default.  Nothing in this Article Ten shall have any effect on the right of the Holders or the Trustee to accelerate the maturity of the Securities; provided, however, that, so long as any Indebtedness permitted by this Indenture to be incurred pursuant to the Credit Agreement shall be outstanding (including letters of credit and bankers’ acceptances), upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under this Indenture, neither the Trustee nor any Holder shall be entitled to accelerate all or any of the Securities Obligations until the earlier to occur of the fifth Business Day following receipt by the Company and by an authorized representative of the holders of Designated Senior Indebtedness of a written declaration of acceleration as provided in Section 6.02 and the date of acceleration of any such Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement.

Section 10.11.                  Trust Moneys Not Subordinated.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, payments from money or the proceeds of Government Securities held in trust under Article Eight by the Trustee and which were deposited in accordance with the terms of Article Eight and not in violation of Section 10.03 for the payment of principal of and interest on the Securities shall

53

not be subordinated to the prior payment of any Senior Indebtedness or subject to the restrictions set forth in this Article Ten, and none of the Holders shall be obligated to pay over any such amount to the Company or any holder of Senior Indebtedness or any other creditor of the Company.

Section 10.12.                  Trustee Entitled To Rely.  Upon any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article Ten, the Trustee and the Holders shall be entitled to rely (a) upon any order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction in which any proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 10.02 are pending, (b) upon a certificate of the liquidating trustee or agent or other Person making such payment or distribution to the Trustee or to the Holders or (c) upon the Representatives for the holders of Senior Indebtedness for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such payment or distribution, the holders of Senior Indebtedness and other Indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article Ten.  In the event that the Trustee determines, in good faith, that evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person as a holder of Senior Indebtedness to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article Ten, the Trustee may request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of such Senior Indebtedness held by such Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Article Ten, and, if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to receive such payment.  The provisions of Sections 7.01 and 7.02 shall be applicable to all actions or omissions of actions by the Trustee pursuant to this Article Ten.

Section 10.13.                  Trustee To Effectuate Subordination.  Each Holder by accepting a Security authorizes and directs the Trustee on his behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to acknowledge or effectuate the subordination between the Holders and the holders of Senior Indebtedness as provided in this Article Ten and appoints the Trustee as attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.

Section 10.14.                  Trustee Not Fiduciary for Holders of Senior Indebtedness.  The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness and shall not be liable to any such holders if it shall mistakenly pay over or distribute to Holders or the Company or any other Person, money or assets to which any holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled by virtue of this Article Ten or otherwise.

Section 10.15.                  Reliance by Holders of Senior Indebtedness Upon Subordination Provisions.  Each Holder by accepting a Security acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing subordination provisions are, and are intended to be, an inducement and a consideration to each holder of any Senior Indebtedness, whether such Senior Indebtedness was created or acquired before or after the issuance of the Securities, to acquire and continue to hold, or to continue to hold, such Senior Indebtedness and such holder of such Senior Indebtedness shall be deemed conclusively to have relied on such subordination provisions in acquiring and continuing to hold, or in continuing to hold, such Senior Indebtedness.

ARTICLE XI

Guarantee

Section 11.01.                  Subsidiary Guarantee.  Subject to the provisions of this Article Eleven, each Guarantor hereby fully, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, jointly and severally with each other Guarantor, to each Holder of the Securities and the Trustee, the full and punctual payment when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest, including Special Interest, if any, on the

54

Securities and all other obligations and liabilities of the Company under this Indenture (including without limitation interest accruing after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy, or the commencement of any insolvency, reorganization or like proceeding, relating to the Company or any Guarantor whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed in such proceeding and the obligations under Section 7.07) (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the “Guarantor Obligations”).  Each Guarantor agrees that the Guarantor Obligations will rank equally in right of payment with other indebtedness of such Guarantor, except to the extent such other Indebtedness is subordinate to the Guarantor Obligations.  Each Guarantor further agrees (to the extent permitted by law) that the Guarantor Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound under this Article Eleven notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Guarantor Obligation.

Each Guarantor waives presentation to, demand of payment from and protest to the Company of any of the Guarantor Obligations and also waives notice of protest for non-payment.  Each Guarantor waives notice of any default under the Securities or the Guarantor Obligations.

Each Guarantor further agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee herein constitutes a Guarantee of payment when due (and not a Guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder to any security held for payment of the Guarantor Obligations.

Except as set forth in Section 11.02, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than payment of the Guarantor Obligations in full), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Guarantor Obligations or otherwise.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor herein shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by (a) the failure of any Holder to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Company or any other person under, this Indenture, the Securities or any other agreement or otherwise; (b) any extension or renewal granted; (c) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture, the Securities or any other agreement; (d) the release of any security held by any Holder or the Trustee for the Guarantor Obligations or any of them; (e) the failure of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy against any other Guarantor; (f) any change in the ownership of the Company; (g) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Guarantor Obligations; or (h) any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of such Guarantor as a matter of law or equity.

Subject to the provisions of Section 4.10, each Guarantor agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee herein shall remain in full force and effect until payment in full of all the Guarantor Obligations or such Guarantor is released from its Subsidiary in compliance with Section 11.03 hereof.  Each Guarantor further agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of or interest on any of the Guarantor Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company or otherwise.

In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Company to pay any of the Guarantor Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, each Guarantor hereby promises to and will, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Holders an amount equal to the sum of (i) the unpaid amount of such Guarantor Obligations then due and owing and (ii)

55

accrued and unpaid interest on such Guarantor Obligations then due and owing (but only to the extent not prohibited by law).

Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between such Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the Guarantor Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in this Indenture for the purposes of its Subsidiary Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Guarantor Obligations guaranteed hereby and (y) in the event of any such declaration of acceleration of such Guarantor Obligations, such Guarantor Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantor for the purposes of this Subsidiary Guarantee.

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

Section 11.02.                  Execution and Delivery of Subsidiary Guarantee for Future Guarantors.  To further evidence its Subsidiary Guarantee, each Subsidiary and other Person that is required to become a Guarantor hereby agrees to execute a supplement to this Indenture, substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto, or a Subsidiary Guarantee, substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto, and deliver it to the Trustee.  Such Subsidiary Guarantee or supplement to this Indenture shall be executed on behalf of each Guarantor by either manual or facsimile signature of one Officer or other person duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of each Guarantor who shall have been duly authorized to so execute by all requisite corporate action.  The validity and enforceability of any Subsidiary Guarantee shall not be affected by the fact that it is not affixed to any particular Security.

Each of the Guarantors hereby agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Security a notation of such Subsidiary Guarantee.

If an Officer of a Guarantor whose signature is on this Indenture or a Subsidiary Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Security on which such Subsidiary Guarantee is endorsed or at any time thereafter, such Guarantor’s Subsidiary Guarantee of such Security shall nevertheless be valid,

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

Section 11.03.                  Limitation on Liability; Termination, Release and Discharge.

(a)                                 Any term or provision of this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder will be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor (including, without limitation, any Guarantees under the Credit Agreement) and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee or pursuant to its contribution obligations under this Indenture, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under federal or state law and not otherwise being void or voidable under any similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

(b)                                 In addition, the Company shall not permit any Guarantor to consolidate with or merge with or into any person (other than another Guarantor) and shall not permit the conveyance, transfer or lease of substantially all of the assets of any Guarantor unless:

56

(i)                                     the resulting, surviving or transferee Person shall be a corporation, partnership, trust or limited liability company organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State of the United States or the District of Columbia and such Person (if not such Guarantor) shall expressly assume, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee, all the obligations of such Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee;

(ii)                                  immediately after giving effect to such transaction (and treating any Indebtedness that becomes an obligation of the resulting, surviving or transferee Person or any Subsidiary as a result of such transaction as having been Incurred by such Person or such Subsidiary at the time of such transaction), no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

(iii)                               the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger or transfer and such supplemental indenture (if any) comply with this Indenture; or

(iv)                              the transaction is made in compliance with Section 5.01 (other than clause (c) of Section 5.01).

Upon the sale or disposition of a Guarantor (by merger, consolidation, the sale of its Capital Stock or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets (other than by lease)) and whether or not the Guarantor is the surviving corporation in such transaction to a Person which is not the Company or a Subsidiary, such Guarantor will be automatically released from all its obligations under this Indenture and its Subsidiary Guarantee and the Registration Rights Agreement and such Subsidiary Guarantee will terminate; provided, however, that (1) the sale or other disposition is in compliance with this Indenture, including Section 5.01 (other than clause (c) thereof); and (2) all the obligations of such Guarantor under the Credit Agreement and related documentation and any other obligations of such Guarantor relating to any other Indebtedness of the Company or its Subsidiaries terminate upon consummation of such transaction.

(c)                                  Each Guarantor shall be deemed released from all its obligations under this Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement and such Subsidiary Guarantee shall terminate upon the legal defeasance of the Securities pursuant to the provisions of Article Eight hereof.

(d)                                 Each Guarantor shall be released from its obligations under this Indenture, its Subsidiary Guarantee and the Registration Rights Agreement if the Company designates such Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary and such designation complies with the other applicable provisions of this Indenture.

Section 11.04.                  Right of Contribution.  Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that any Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made on the obligations under the Subsidiary Guarantees, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against the Company, or any other Guarantor who has not paid its proportionate share of such payment.  The provisions of this Section 11.04 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of each Guarantor to the Trustee and the Holders and each Guarantor shall remain liable to the Trustee and the Holders for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder.

Section 11.05.                  No Subrogation.  Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by each Guarantor hereunder, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Trustee or any Holder against the Company or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Trustee or any Holder for the payment of the Guarantor Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Company or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Trustee and the Holders by the Company on account of the Guarantor Obligations are

57

paid in full.  If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Guarantor Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the Trustee and the Holders, segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Trustee in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to the Trustee, if required), to be applied against the Guarantor Obligations.

ARTICLE XII

Subordination of Guarantees

Section 12.01.                  Agreement To Subordinate.  Each Guarantor covenants and agrees, and each Holder of a Security, by his acceptance thereof, likewise covenants and agrees, that, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth in this Article, the Guarantor Obligations are hereby expressly made subordinate and postponed to and subject in right of payment as provided in this Article to the prior payment in full in cash or Cash Equivalents of all Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantors.  The Guarantor Obligations shall in all respects rank pari passu with the Guarantors’ guarantees of the Existing Notes and any future senior subordinated Indebtedness of the Guarantors and senior to all existing and future junior subordinated Indebtedness of the Guarantors, and only Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantors shall rank senior to the Guarantor Obligations in accordance with the provisions set forth herein.  All provisions of this Article Twelve shall be subject to Section 12.11.

This Article Twelve shall constitute a continuing offer to all Persons who, in reliance upon such Article, become holders of, or continue to hold, Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantors, and such provisions are made for the benefit of the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantors, and such holders are made obligee hereunder and they or each of them may enforce such provisions.

Section 12.02.                  Liquidation, Dissolution, Bankruptcy.  In the event of (a) any insolvency or bankruptcy case or proceeding, or any receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar case or proceeding in connection therewith, relative to any Guarantor or to its assets, whether voluntary or involuntary from any source, (b) any liquidation, dissolution or other winding-up of any Guarantor, whether voluntary or involuntary and whether or not involving insolvency or bankruptcy, or (c) any assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other marshaling of assets or liabilities of any Guarantor, then and in any such event:

(i)                                     the holders of Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor shall receive payment in full in cash or Cash Equivalents of all amounts due on or in respect of all Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor, or provision shall be made for such payment in full in cash or Cash Equivalents to the satisfaction of the holders of Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor, before the Holders of the Securities are entitled to receive any payment or distribution of any kind or character from any source (other than Permitted Junior Securities) on account of the Guarantor Obligations or on account of the purchase or redemption or other acquisition of Securities; and

(ii)                                  any payment or distribution of assets of any Guarantor of any kind or character from any source, whether in cash, property or securities (other than a payment or distribution in the form of Permitted Junior Securities), including by way of set-off or enforcement of any guarantee or otherwise, which the Trustee or the Holders would be entitled to receive but for the provisions of this Article shall be paid by the liquidating trustee or agent or other person making such payment or distribution, whether a trustee in bankruptcy, a receiver or liquidating trustee or otherwise, directly to the holders of Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor or their authorized representative or representatives or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any of such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, ratably according to the aggregate amounts remaining unpaid on account of such Senior

58

Indebtedness held or represented by each, to the extent necessary to make payment in full in cash or Cash Equivalents of all Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor remaining unpaid, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution, or provision therefor to the satisfaction of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, to or for the holders of such Senior Indebtedness; and

(iii)                               any taxes that have been withheld or deducted from any payment or distribution in respect of any Guarantor Obligations, or any taxes that ought to have been withheld or deducted from any such payment or distribution that have been remitted to the relevant taxing authority, shall not be considered to be an amount that a Holder or the Trustee is entitled to receive for the purposes of Section 12.02(ii).

The consolidation of any Guarantor with, or the merger of any Guarantor into, another Person or the liquidation or dissolution of any Guarantor following the conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposal of its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to another Person upon the terms and conditions set forth in Article Five shall not be deemed a dissolution, winding-up, liquidation, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of creditors or marshaling of assets and liabilities of such Guarantor for the purposes of this Section if the Person formed by such consolidation or into which such Guarantor is merged or the Person which acquires such assets substantially as an entirety, as the case may be, shall, as a part of such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, lease or disposal, comply with the conditions set forth in Article Five.

Section 12.03.                  Default on Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor.

(a)                                 No Guarantor may make any payment pursuant to any of its Guarantor Obligations (collectively, “pay its Subsidiary Guarantee”) if (i) any principal, premium, if any, interest or other amount payable in respect of any Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor is not paid within any applicable grace period (including at Maturity) or (ii) any other default on Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor occurs and the maturity of such Senior Indebtedness is accelerated in accordance with its terms unless, in either case, (A) the default has been cured or waived and any such acceleration has been rescinded or (B) such Senior Indebtedness has been paid in full in cash or Cash Equivalents; provided, however, that any Guarantor may pay its Subsidiary Guarantee without regard to the foregoing if such Guarantor and the Trustee receive written notice approving such payment from the Representative of the holders of such issue of Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor.  No Guarantor may pay its Subsidiary Guarantee during the continuance of any Payment Blockage Period after receipt by the Company and the Trustee of a Payment Blockage Notice under Section 10.03.  Unless the Representatives of the holders of such issue of Designated Senior Indebtedness giving such Payment Blockage Notice shall have accelerated the maturity of such Designated Senior Indebtedness and not rescinded such acceleration, any Guarantor shall resume (unless otherwise prohibited as described in the first two sentences of this clause (a)) payments pursuant to its Subsidiary Guarantee after the end of such Payment Blockage Period.

(b)                                 In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, any Guarantor shall make any payment to the Trustee (which is not paid over to Holders of Securities) prohibited by the foregoing provisions of this Section, then and in such event such payment shall be paid over to the authorized representatives of such Designated Senior Indebtedness initiating the Payment Blockage Period, to be held in trust for distribution to the holders of Senior Indebtedness or, to the extent amounts are not then due in respect of Senior Indebtedness, promptly returned to such Guarantor, or otherwise as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct.  The Trustee shall not be liable for any interest on any money received by it.

Section 12.04.                  Subrogation.  After all Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor is paid in full and until the Securities are paid in full, Holders shall be subrogated (equally and ratably with the holders

59

of all indebtedness of such Guarantor which by its express terms is subordinated and postponed to Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor to the same extent as the Securities are subordinated and postponed and which is entitled to like rights of subrogation) to the rights of holders of Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor to receive distributions applicable to such Senior Indebtedness.  A distribution made under this Article Twelve to holders of Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor that otherwise would have been made to Holders is not, as between such Guarantor and Holders, a payment by such Guarantor on such Senior Indebtedness.

Section 12.05.                  Relative Rights.  This Article Twelve defines the relative rights of Holders and holders of Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor.  Nothing in this Indenture shall:

(a)                                 impair, as between a Guarantor and Holders, the obligation of such Guarantor, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the Guarantor Obligations as set forth in Article Eleven; or

(b)                                 affect the relative rights against a Guarantor of Holders and creditors of a Guarantor other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor; or

(c)                                  except as set forth in Section 6.02, prevent the Trustee or any Holder from exercising its available remedies upon a default by such Guarantor of the Guarantor Obligations, subject to the rights of holders of Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor to receive distributions otherwise payable to Holders.

Section 12.06.                  Subordination May Not Be Impaired by Guarantor.

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

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

(i)                                     change the manner, place or terms of payment or extend the time of payment of, or renew or alter, the terms of Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor or the terms of any instrument evidencing the same or any agreement under which such Senior Indebtedness is outstanding (including any increase in the aggregate principal amount of any indebtedness thereunder, it being understood that any such additional indebtedness shall not constitute Senior Indebtedness to the extent Incurred in violation of Section 4.05 of this Indenture);

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

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

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

(c)                                  If the Trustee on behalf of the Holders or any Holders should fail to file a proof of claim in any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding relating to a Guarantor at least 30 days before the expiration of the time to file such claim or claims, each holder of Senior

60

Indebtedness of a Guarantor (or its representative) is hereby authorized to file an appropriate claim for and on behalf of all or any of the Holders.

Section 12.07.                  Rights of Trustee and Paying Agent.  Notwithstanding Section 12.03, the Trustee or Paying Agent may continue to make payments on any Subsidiary Guarantee and shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of facts that would prohibit the making of any such payments unless, not less than one Business Day prior to the date of such payment, a Trust Officer receives notice satisfactory to it that payments may not be made under this Article Twelve.  The Company, the Registrar or co-registrar, the Paying Agent, a Representative or a holder of Senior Indebtedness may give the notice; provided, however, that, if an issue of Senior Indebtedness of any Guarantor has a Representative, only the Representative may give the notice.

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

Section 12.08.                  Distribution or Notice to Representative.  Whenever a distribution is to be made or a notice given to holders of Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor, the distribution may be made and the notice given to their Representative (if any).

Section 12.09.                  Article Twelve Not To Prevent Events of Default or Limit Right To Accelerate.  The failure to make a payment pursuant to a Subsidiary Guarantee by reason of any provision in this Article Twelve shall not be construed as preventing the occurrence of a Default.  Nothing in this Article Twelve shall have any effect on the right of the Holders or the Trustee to make a demand for payment on any Subsidiary Guarantee pursuant to Article Eleven.

Section 12.10.                  Trustee Entitled To Rely.  Upon any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article Twelve, the Trustee and the Holders shall be entitled to rely (a) upon any order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction in which any proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 12.02 are pending, (b) upon a certificate of the liquidating trustee or agent or other Person making such payment or distribution to the Trustee or to the Holders or (c) upon the Representatives for the holders of Senior Indebtedness of any Guarantor for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such payment or distribution, the holders of Senior Indebtedness of any Guarantor and other Indebtedness of such Guarantor, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article Twelve.  In the event that the Trustee determines, in good faith, that evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person as a holder of Senior Indebtedness of any Guarantor to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article Twelve, the Trustee may request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of such Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor held by such Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Article Twelve, and, if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to receive such payment.  The provisions of Sections 7.01 and 7.02 shall be applicable to all actions or omissions of actions by the Trustee pursuant to this Article Twelve.

Section 12.11.                  Trustee To Effectuate Subordination.  Each Holder by accepting a Security authorizes and directs the Trustee on his behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to acknowledge or effectuate the subordination between the Holders and the holders of Senior

61

Indebtedness of any Guarantor as provided in this Article Twelve and appoints the Trustee as attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.

Section 12.12.                  Trustee Not Fiduciary for Holders of Senior Indebtedness of Guarantors.  The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness of any Guarantor and shall not be liable to any such holders if it shall mistakenly pay over or distribute to Holders or the Company or any other Person, money or assets to which any holders of such Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled by virtue of this Article Twelve or otherwise.

Section 12.13.                  Reliance by Holders of Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor Upon Subordination Provisions.  Each Holder by accepting a Security acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing subordination provisions are, and are intended to be, an inducement and a consideration to each holder of any Senior Indebtedness of any Guarantor, whether such Senior Indebtedness was created or acquired before or after the issuance of the Securities, to acquire and continue to hold, or to continue to hold, such Senior Indebtedness and such holder of such Senior Indebtedness shall be deemed conclusively to have relied on such subordination provisions in acquiring and continuing to hold, or in continuing to hold, such Senior Indebtedness.
