order to amend the Indenture; and
WHEREAS, the Issuer desires to amend the Indenture in accordance with the terms and
conditions set forth below;
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises, the parties mutually agree
as follows:
ARTICLE I
Definitions
SECTION 1.1. Defined Terms. Terms for which meanings are provided in the Indenture

below and effective as of the Third Supplemental Indenture Effective Date (as defined herein),
the Indenture shall be amended as follows:
(a) Amendments to Appendix A to the Indenture (Master Index of Defined Terms).
(i) Definition of Consolidated Subsidiaries. The following defined term is hereby
inserted in Appendix A to the Indenture:
“Consolidated Subsidiaries: This term shall have the meaning given to such term in
the Credit Agreement, as in effect on the Closing Date for the Series 2005-1
Supplement.”
(ii) Definition of Consolidated Tangible Net Worth. The definition of
“Consolidated Tangible Net Worth” is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the
following:
“Consolidated Tangible Net Worth. As of any date of determination with respect to
a Person, the excess of: (a) the tangible assets of such Person and such Person’s
Consolidated Subsidiaries calculated in accordance with GAAP plus the
aggregate amount of Consolidated Funded Debt of the type specified in clause (3) of
the definition of Consolidated Funded Debt, over (b) all Indebtedness of such
Person and its Consolidated Subsidiaries; provided, however, that (i) in no event
shall there be included in the above calculation any intangible assets such as
patents, trademarks, trade names, copyrights, licenses, goodwill, organizational
costs, amounts relating to covenants not to compete, or any impact from
applications of FASB 133, (ii) securities included as such intangible assets shall
be taken into account at their current market price or cost, whichever is lower,
and
(iii) in no event shall there be included in the above calculation, as of any date
of determination, any assets or obligation arising under any interest rate hedging
or under any similar type of agreement to the extent of the amount due to or by
such Person if such agreement were to be terminated on such date of determination.”
(b) For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that any term set forth in Appendix A to
the Indenture is defined by reference to the definition of such term in the Credit Agreement and
to the extent the definition of such term in the Credit Agreement includes the term “Consolidated
Tangible Net Worth,” the term “Consolidated Tangible Net Worth” shall be deemed to have the
definition set forth in Section 2.1(a)(ii) of this Third Supplemental Indenture.
