The aggregate principal amount of Notes which may be authenticated and delivered under the Indenture shall not, except as permitted by the provisions of (S)(S) 2.07, 2.08, 2.10, 2.11 or 3.02 of the Indenture, exceed $300,000,000.

(S) 1.
Prepayment of Notes (a) The Company at its option may, upon ten days' written notice to the Holders, at any time, prepay all or any part of the principal amount of Notes at a redemption price equal to 101% (or, if the Company shall have paid the fee required by Section 6.18(b), 100%) of the principal amount of Notes so prepaid, together with accrued interest through the date of prepayment; provided, 18 that the redemption price shall be 103% of par plus accrued interest if the Notes are refunded (whether at the time of redemption or maturity) with or in anticipation of funds raised by any financing transaction in which DLJSC has not acted as sole agent or underwriter to the Company (unless DLJSC, in its sole discretion, shall have consented thereto). (b) The Company shall, promptly upon the receipt by the Company of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Designated Transaction, prepay an aggregate principal amount of Notes equal to the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds, at a redemption price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes so prepaid, together with accrued interest through the date of prepayment; provided, that the redemption price shall be 103% of par plus accrued interest if the Notes are refunded (whether at the time of redemption or maturity) with or in anticipation of funds raised by any financing transaction in which DLJSC has not acted as sole agent or underwriter to the Company (other than a fully underwritten bank financing pursuant to a signed commitment letter containing only such conditions as are usual and customary in such financings and which does not contain any condition relating to the successful syndication of such transaction); and provided, further, that Notes shall be required to be so prepaid only to the extent that Net Cash Proceeds from all Designated Transactions on and after the date hereof exceed $1,000,000. (c) The Company shall, immediately upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, prepay all Notes then outstanding at a redemption price equal to 103% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued interest through the date of prepayment. (d) Any prepayment of the Notes pursuant to Section 2.6(a) shall be in a minimum amount of at least $1,000,000 and multiples of $1,000,000, unless less than $1,000,000 of the Notes remains outstanding, in which case all of the Notes must be prepaid. Any prepayment of the Notes pursuant to Section 2.6(b) shall be in a minimum amount which is a multiple of $1,000 times the number of Holders at the time of such prepayment. (e) Any partial prepayment shall be made so that the Notes then held by each Holder shall be prepaid in a principal amount which shall bear the same ratio, as nearly as may be, to the total principal amount being prepaid as the principal amount of such Notes held by such Holder shall bear to the aggregate principal amount of all Notes then outstanding. In the 19 event of a partial prepayment, upon presentation of any Note the Company shall execute and deliver to or on the order of the Holder, at the expense of the Company, a new Note in principal amount equal to the remaining outstanding portion of such Note.
Execution of Notes Notes shall be signed in the name and on behalf of the Issuer by the manual or facsimile signature of an Officer. The Trustee will, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate Notes for original issue that may be validly issued under this Indenture, including any Additional Notes. The aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding at any time may not exceed the aggregate principal amount of Notes authorized for issuance by the Issuer pursuant to one or more Authentication Orders, except as provided in Sections 2.07 and 2.08 hereof. Only such Notes as shall bear thereon a certificate of authentication substantially in the form set forth on the form of Notes attached as Exhibit A1 hereto, executed manually by the Trustee (or an authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee as provided by Section 16.11), shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose. Such certificate by the Trustee (or such an authenticating agent) upon any Note executed by the Issuer shall be conclusive evidence that the Note so authenticated has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and that the Holder is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. In case any Officer who shall have signed any of the Notes shall cease to be such Officer before the Notes so signed shall have been authenticated and delivered by the Trustee, or disposed of by the Issuer, such Notes nevertheless may be authenticated and delivered or disposed of as though the person who signed such Notes had not ceased to be such Officer, and any Note may be signed on behalf of the Issuer by such persons as, at the actual date of the execution of such Note, shall be the proper Officers, although at the date of the execution of this Indenture any such person was not such an Officer.
Amount of Notes The aggregate principal amount of Original Notes which may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture on the Issue Date is $[—]. All Notes shall be substantially identical except as to denomination. The Issuer may from time to time after the Issue Date issue Additional Notes under this Indenture in an unlimited principal amount, so long as (i) the Incurrence of the Indebtedness represented by such Additional Notes is at such time permitted by Section 4.03 and the Liens thereon are permitted by Section 4.12 and (ii) such Additional Notes are issued in compliance with the other applicable provisions of this Indenture. With respect to any Additional Notes issued after the Issue Date (except for Notes authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Notes pursuant to Section 2.07, 2.08, 2.10, 3.08, 4.06(e), 4.08(c) or the Appendix), there shall be (a) established in or pursuant to a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Issuer and (b) (i) set forth or determined in the manner provided in an Officer’s Certificate or (ii) established in one or more indentures supplemental hereto, prior to the issuance of such Additional Notes: (1) the aggregate principal amount of such Additional Notes which may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture; (2) the issue price and issuance date of such Additional Notes, including the date from which interest on such Additional Notes shall accrue; and (3) if applicable, that such Additional Notes shall be issuable in whole or in part in the form of one or more Global Notes and, in such case, the respective depositaries for such Global Notes, the form of any legend or legends which shall be borne by such Global Notes in addition to or in lieu of those set forth in Exhibit A hereto hereto, and any circumstances in addition to or in lieu of those set forth in Section 2.2 of the Appendix in which any such Global Note may be exchanged in whole or in part for Additional Notes registered, or any transfer of such Global Note in whole or in part may be registered, in the name or names of Persons other than the depositary for such Global Note or a nominee thereof. If any of the terms of any Additional Notes are established by action taken pursuant to a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Issuer, a copy of an appropriate record of such action shall be certified by the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary of the Issuer and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Officer’s Certificate or the indenture supplemental hereto setting forth the terms of the Additional Notes. The Original Notes and any Additional Notes, shall all be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture, including, without limitation, waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase. Any Additional Notes that are not fungible with the existing Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes shall bear a separate CUSIP number.
Replacement of Notes Upon receipt by the Company at the address and to the attention of the designated officer (all as specified in Section 18(iii)) of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note (which evidence shall be, in the case of an Institutional Investor, notice from such Institutional Investor of such ownership and such loss, theft, destruction or mutilation), and (a) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it (provided that if the holder of such Note is, or is a nominee for, an original Purchaser or another holder of a Note with a minimum net worth of at least $50,000,000 or a Qualified Institutional Buyer, such Person’s own unsecured agreement of indemnity shall be deemed to be satisfactory), or (b) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation thereof, within ten Business Days thereafter, the Company at its own expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Note, dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon.
Calculation of Principal Amount of Notes The aggregate principal amount of the Notes, at any date of determination, shall be the principal amount of the Notes at such date of determination. With respect to any matter requiring consent, waiver, approval or other action of the holders of a specified percentage of the principal amount of all the Notes, such percentage shall be calculated, on the relevant date of determination, by dividing (a) the principal amount, as of such date of determination, of Notes, the holders of which have so consented, by (b) the aggregate principal amount, as of such date of determination, of the Notes then outstanding, in each case, as determined in accordance with the preceding sentence, and Section 13.06 of this Indenture. Any calculation of the Applicable Premium made pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall be made by the Company and delivered to the Trustee pursuant to an Officers’ Certificate.
Form of Notes The Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication to be borne by such Notes shall be substantially in the respective forms set forth in Exhibit A, the terms and provisions of which shall constitute, and are hereby expressly incorporated in and made a part of this Indenture. To the extent applicable, the Company and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. In the case of any conflict between this Indenture and a Note, the provisions of this Indenture shall control and govern to the extent of such conflict. Any Global Note may be endorsed with or have incorporated in the text thereof such legends or recitals or changes not inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture as may be required by the Custodian or the Depositary, or as may be required to comply with any applicable law or any regulation thereunder or with the rules and regulations of any securities exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Notes may be listed or traded or designated for issuance or to conform with any usage with respect thereto, or to indicate any special limitations or restrictions to which any particular Notes are subject. Any of the Notes may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such notations, legends or endorsements as the Officer executing the same may approve (execution thereof to be conclusive evidence of such approval) and as are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture, or as may be required to comply with any law or with any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with any rule or regulation of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Notes may be listed or designated for issuance, or to conform to usage or to indicate any special limitations or restrictions to which any particular Notes are subject. Each Global Note shall represent such principal amount of the outstanding Notes as shall be specified therein and shall provide that it shall represent the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby may from time to time be increased or reduced to reflect redemptions, repurchases, cancellations, conversions, transfers or exchanges permitted hereby. Any endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee or the Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, in such manner and upon instructions given by the Holder of such Notes in accordance with this Indenture. Payment of principal (including the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, a Global Note shall be made to the Holder of such Note on the date of payment, unless a record date or other means of determining Holders eligible to receive payment is provided for herein.
