WHEREAS, Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $130,000,000 have been issued and are
outstanding;
WHEREAS, the Company and the Guarantors desire to amend the Indenture to revise the definition
of “Principal” in Section 1.01 of the Indenture;
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Indenture, the Company, the Guarantors and the
Trustee may amend, supplement or otherwise modify the Indenture without the consent of any Holder
of Notes to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of
the Notes;
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.02 of the Indenture, with the consent of the Holders of at

with Section 2.09 of the Indenture), the Company and the Trustee may amend, supplement or otherwise
modify the Indenture subject to specified exceptions;
WHEREAS, Section 2.09 of the Indenture provides that, in determining whether the Holders of
the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any consent, Notes owned by the Company or
any Guarantor, or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct
or indirect common control with the Company or any Guarantor, will be considered as though not
outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee will be protected in
relying on any such consent, only Notes that the Trustee knows are so owned will be so disregarded;
WHEREAS, $13,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Notes are owned by Persons who directly
or indirectly control or who are under direct or indirect common control with the Company or any
Guarantor, and no Notes are owned by the Company or any Guarantor or any Person controlled by the

accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended
or supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the
Trustee of the consent of the Holders of Notes, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents
described in Section 7.02 of the Indenture, the Trustee will join with the Company and the
Guarantors in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or
supplemental indenture affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities
under the Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but will
not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental indenture;
2

the documents described in Section 7.02 of the Indenture and required by Sections 9.06 and 13.04 of

Notes so considered outstanding, have validly delivered their consents pursuant to the Consent
Letter relating to the Consent Solicitation described in the Consent Solicitation Statement, dated
