SECTION 3.9 OFFER TO PURCHASE BY APPLICATION OF EXCESS PROCEEDS

In the event that, pursuant to Section 4.10 hereof, the Issuers shall be required to commence an Asset Sale Offer, they shall follow the procedures specified below.

The Asset Sale Offer shall remain open for a period of 20 Business Days following its commencement and no longer, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Offer Period”). No later than five Business Days after the termination of the Offer Period (the “Purchase Date”), the Issuers shall purchase the principal amount of Notes required to be purchased pursuant to Section 4.10 hereof (the “Offer Amount”) or, if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered in response to the Asset Sale Offer. Payment for any Notes so purchased shall be made in the same manner as interest payments are made.

If the Purchase Date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest shall be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer.

Upon the commencement of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuers shall send, by first class mail, a written notice to the Trustee and to each of the Holders, with a copy to the Trustee. The notice shall contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. The Asset Sale Offer shall be made to all Holders. The notice, which shall govern the terms of the Asset Sale Offer, shall state:

(a) that the Asset Sale Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3.9 and Section 4.10 hereof and the length of time the Asset Sale Offer shall remain open;

(b) the Offer Amount, the purchase price and the Purchase Date;

(d) that, unless the Issuers default in making such payment, any Note accepted for payment pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer shall cease to accrete or accrue interest after the Purchase Date;

(e) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer may only elect to have all of such Note purchased and may not elect to have only a portion of such Note purchased;

(f) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to any Asset Sale Offer shall be required to surrender the Note, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the Note completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Issuers, a depositary, if appointed by the Issuers, or a Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice at least three days before the Purchase Date;

(g) that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Issuers, the depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, not later than the expiration of the Offer Period, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note the Holder delivered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased;

(h) that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by Holders exceeds the Offer Amount, the Issuers shall select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Issuers so that only Notes in denominations of $1,000, or integral multiples thereof, shall be purchased); and

(i) that Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part shall be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer).

On or before the Purchase Date, the Issuers shall, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Offer Amount of Notes or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer, or if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered, and shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Issuers in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.9. The Issuers, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, shall promptly (but in any case not later than five days after the Purchase Date) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Issuers for purchase, and the Issuers shall promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order from the Issuers shall authenticate and mail or deliver such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Issuers to the Holder thereof. The Issuers shall publicly announce the results of the Asset Sale Offer on the Purchase Date.

Other than as specifically provided in this Section 3.9, any purchase pursuant to this Section 3.9 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.1 through 3.6 hereof.

(b) Each of the following sections of Article Four of the Indenture shall be eliminated in its entirety except for its heading and be replaced with the words “INTENTIONALLY OMITTED”:

SECTION 4.3 REPORTS.

(a) Whether or not required by the rules and regulations of the SEC, so long as any Notes are outstanding, the Issuers shall furnish to the Trustee and the Holders of Notes (i) all quarterly and annual financial information that would be required to be contained in a filing with the SEC on Forms 10-Q and 10-K if the Issuers were required to file such Forms, including a “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” that describes the financial condition and results of operations of the Issuers and their consolidated Subsidiaries (showing in reasonable detail, either on the face of the financial statements or in the footnotes thereto, the financial condition and results of operations of the Issuers and their Restricted Subsidiaries separate from the financial condition and results of operations of the Unrestricted Subsidiaries of the Issuers) and, with respect to the annual information only, a report thereon by the Issuers’ certified independent accountants and (ii) all current reports that would be required to be filed with the SEC on Form 8-K if the Issuers were required to file such reports, in each case within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations. For so long as the Parent is a Guarantor of the Notes, the Issuers shall satisfy their obligations in this covenant with respect to financial information relating to the Issuers by furnishing financial information relating to the Parent; provided that the same is accompanied by consolidating 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 Issuers and their Restricted

Subsidiaries on a stand-alone basis, on the other hand. In addition, following the consummation of the exchange offer contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement, whether or not required by the rules and regulations of the SEC, the Issuers shall file a copy of all such information and reports with the SEC for public availability within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations (unless the SEC will not accept such a filing) and make such information available to securities analysts and prospective investors upon request.

(b) For so long as any Notes remain outstanding, the Issuers and the Guarantors shall furnish to the Holders and to securities analysts and prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act.

SECTION 4.4 COMPLIANCE CERTIFICATE.

(a) The Issuers and each Guarantor (to the extent that such Guarantor is so required under the TIA) shall deliver to the Trustee, within 90 days after the end of each fiscal quarter, an Officers’ Certificate stating that a review of the activities of the Issuers and their Subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal year has been made under the supervision of the signing Officers with a view to determining whether the Issuers have kept, observed, performed and fulfilled their obligations under this Indenture, and further stating, as to each such Officer signing such certificate, that to the best of his or her knowledge the Issuers have kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every covenant contained in this Indenture and are not in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture (or, if a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred, describing all such Defaults or Events of Default of which he or she may have knowledge and what action the Issuers are taking or propose to take with respect thereto) and that to the best of his or her knowledge no event has occurred and remains in existence by reason of which payments on account of the principal of or interest, if any, on the Notes is prohibited or if such event has occurred, a description of the event and what action the Issuers are taking or propose to take with respect thereto.

(b) So long as not contrary to the then current recommendations of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, the year-end financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 4.3(a) above shall be accompanied by a written statement of the Issuers’ independent public accountants (who shall be a firm of established national reputation) that in making the examination necessary for certification of such financial statements, nothing has come to their attention that would lead them to believe that the Issuers have violated any provisions of Article 4 or Article 5 hereof or, if any such violation has occurred, specifying the nature and period of existence thereof, it being understood that such accountants shall not be liable directly or indirectly to any Person for any failure to obtain knowledge of any such violation.

(c) The Issuers shall, so long as any of the Notes are outstanding, deliver to the Trustee, forthwith upon any Officer becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, an Officers’ Certificate specifying such Default or Event of Default and what action the Issuers are taking or propose to take with respect thereto.

SECTION 4.5 TAXES.

The Issuers shall pay, and shall cause each of their Subsidiaries to pay, prior to delinquency, all material taxes, assessments, and governmental levies except such as are contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings or where the failure to effect such payment is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders of the Notes.

SECTION 4.6 STAY, EXTENSION AND USURY LAWS.

Each of the Issuers and the Guarantors covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Issuers and each Guarantor (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waive all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenant that they shall not, by resort to any such law, 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.

SECTION 4.7 RESTRICTED PAYMENTS.

The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly: (i) declare or pay any dividend or make any other payment or distribution on account of the Company’s or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Equity Interests (including, without limitation, any payment in connection with any merger or consolidation involving the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) or to the direct or indirect holders of the Company’s or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Equity Interests in their capacity as such (other than dividends or distributions payable in Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Company or to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company); (ii) purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire or retire for value (including, without limitation, in connection with any merger or consolidation involving the Company) any Equity Interests of the Company or any direct or indirect parent of the Company or other Affiliate of the Company (other than any such Equity Interests owned by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary); (iii) make any payment on or with respect to, or purchase, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value any Indebtedness that is subordinated to the Notes or any guarantee thereof, except a payment of interest or principal at Stated Maturity; or (iv) make any Restricted Investment (all such payments and other actions set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above being collectively referred to as “Restricted Payments”), unless, at the time of and after giving effect to such Restricted Payment:

(a) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof; and

(b) the Company would, at the time of such Restricted Payment and after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Restricted Payment had been made at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, have been permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in the first paragraph of the covenant described below under Section 4.9 hereof; and

(c) such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all other Restricted Payments made by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries after the date of this Indenture (excluding Restricted Payments permitted by clauses (ii), (iii), (iv), (vi), (vii), (viii) and (ix) of the next succeeding paragraph), is less than the sum, without duplication, of (i) 50% of the Consolidated Net Income of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries for the period (taken as one accounting period) from the beginning of the first fiscal quarter commencing after the date of this Indenture to the end of the Company’s most recently ended fiscal quarter for which internal financial statements are available at the time of such Restricted Payment (or, if such Consolidated Net Income for such period is a deficit, less 100% of such deficit), plus (ii) 100% of the aggregate net proceeds (including the fair market value of property other than cash (determined in good faith by the Board of Managers as evidenced by a certificate filed with the Trustee, except that in the event the value of any non-cash consideration shall be $15.0 million or more, the value shall be as determined based upon an opinion or appraisal issued by an Independent Financial Advisor)) received by the Company since the date of this Indenture as a contribution to its common equity capital or from the issue or sale of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Company (excluding any net proceeds from an Equity Offering or capital contribution to the extent used to redeem Notes in accordance with the optional redemption provisions of the Notes) or from the issue or sale of Disqualified Stock or debt securities of the Company that have been converted into such Equity Interests (other than Equity Interests (or Disqualified Stock or convertible debt securities) sold to a Subsidiary of the Company), plus (iii) to the extent that any Restricted Investment that was made after the date of this Indenture is sold for cash or otherwise liquidated or repaid for cash, the cash return of capital with respect to such Restricted Investment (less the cost of disposition, if any), plus (iv) any dividends (the fair market value of property other than cash shall be determined in good faith by the Board of Managers as evidenced by a certificate filed with the Trustee, except that in the event the value of any non-cash consideration shall be $15.0 million or more, the value shall be as determined based upon an opinion or appraisal issued by an Independent Financial Advisor) received by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary after the date of this Indenture from an Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Company, to the extent that such dividends were not otherwise included in Consolidated Net Income of the Company for such period, plus (v) to the extent that any Unrestricted Subsidiary is redesignated as a Restricted Subsidiary after the date of this Indenture, if as a result of such redesignation, (x) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of the Company on a pro forma basis is lower than such ratio immediately prior thereto, then the lesser of (A) the fair market value of the Company’s Investment in such Subsidiary as of the date of such redesignation or (B) such fair market value as of the date on which such Subsidiary was originally designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or (y) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of the Company on a pro forma basis is equal to or higher than such ratio immediately prior thereto, the fair market value of the Company’s Investment in such Subsidiary as of the date of such redesignation; provided, further that any increase in the amount of Restricted Payments permitted to be incurred as a result of application of subparagraphs (iii), (iv) or (v) above related to dividends, returns of capital or redesignation of foreign joint ventures shall be reduced by the difference between (A) the fair market value of any equipment (as determined by sales by the Company of comparable equipment to unaffiliated third parties) transferred to such joint ventures in reliance on subparagraph (xii) of the covenant entitled “Transactions with Affiliates” and (B) the value received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary from such joint venture with respect to such equipment transfer.

The foregoing provisions shall not prohibit (i) the payment of any dividend within 60 days after the date of declaration thereof, if at said date of declaration such payment would have complied with the provisions of this Indenture; (ii) the redemption, repurchase, retirement, defeasance or other acquisition of any Equity Interests of the Company or subordinated Indebtedness of the Company or any Guarantors in exchange for, or out of the net cash proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale (other than to a Subsidiary of the Company) of, other Equity Interests of the Company (other than any Disqualified Stock); provided that the amount of any such net cash proceeds that are utilized for any such redemption, repurchase, retirement, defeasance or other acquisition shall be excluded from clause (ii) of the preceding paragraph provided that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing immediately after such transaction; (iii) the defeasance, redemption, repurchase or other acquisition of subordinated Indebtedness with the net cash proceeds from an incurrence of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; (iv) the payment of any dividend by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company to the holders of its Equity Interests on a pro rata basis; (v) the repurchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement for value of any Equity Interests of the Parent, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company held by any member of the Company’s (or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’) management pursuant to any management agreement, stock option agreement or similar agreement; provided that the aggregate price paid for all such repurchased, redeemed, acquired or retired Equity Interests shall not exceed $5.0 million in the aggregate since the date of this Indenture (and shall be increased by the amount of any net cash proceeds to the Company from (x) sales of Equity Interests of the Parent to management employees subsequent to the date of this Indenture and (y) any “key-man” life insurance policies which are used to make such redemptions or repurchases) and no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing immediately after such transaction; provided further, that the cancellation of Indebtedness owing to the Company from members of management of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with such a repurchase of Capital Stock of the Parent will not be deemed to constitute a Restricted Payment under this Indenture; (vi) the making of distributions, loans or advances to the Parent in an amount not to exceed $1.5 million per annum in order to permit the Parent to pay required and ordinary operating expenses of the Parent (including, without limitation, directors’ fees, indemnification obligations, professional fees and expenses, but excluding any payments on or repurchases of the Seller Subordinated Note or the Seller Preferred Equity); (vii) distributions to the Parent to fund the required tax obligations of the Parent or its members related to income generated by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries and taxable to such members, including the tax distributions contemplated by Article IV of the LLC Agreement as in effect on the date of this Indenture; (viii) repurchases of Capital Stock deemed to occur upon the exercise of stock options if such Capital Stock represents a portion of the exercise price thereof; (ix) distributions to the Parent to fund the Transactions; (x) distributions to the Parent to purchase or redeem the Seller Subordinated Note and the Seller Preferred Equity pursuant to change of control provisions contained in the governing instrument relating thereto; provided, however, that (x) no offer or purchase obligation may be triggered in respect of such Seller Subordinated Note or Seller Preferred Equity unless a corresponding obligation also arises with respect to the Notes and (y) in any event, no repurchase or redemption of any such Seller Subordinated Note or Seller Preferred Equity may be consummated unless and until the Issuers shall have satisfied all repurchase obligations with respect to any required purchase offer made with respect to the

Notes; provided, however, that such purchases or redemption of the Seller Subordinated Note or the Seller Preferred Equity shall be included in the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payments and provided that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing as a consequence thereof; and (xi) if no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof, other Restricted Payments in an aggregate amount not to exceed $5.0 million since the date of this Indenture. In addition, any dividend which is declared but not paid shall not be included in the calculation of Restricted Payments under clause (c), and any divided which is declared and paid shall be included only once in the calculation of Restricted Payments under clause (c).

The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) shall be the fair market value on the date of the Restricted Payment of the asset(s) or securities proposed to be transferred or issued by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment. The fair market value of any non-cash Restricted Payment shall be determined by the Board of Managers of the Company whose resolution with respect thereto shall be delivered to the Trustee, such determination to be based upon an opinion or appraisal issued by an Independent Financial Advisor if such fair market value $15.0 million. Not later than the date of making any Restricted Payment, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that such Restricted Payment is permitted and setting forth the basis upon which the calculations required by this Section 4.7 were computed, together with a copy of any fairness opinion or appraisal required by this Indenture.

The Board of Managers may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if such designation would not cause a Default. For purposes of making such determination, all outstanding Investments by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries (except to the extent repaid in cash) in the Subsidiary so designated will be deemed to be Restricted Payments at the time of such designation and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under the first paragraph of this covenant. All such outstanding Investments will be deemed to constitute Investments in an amount equal to the fair market value of such Investments at the time of such designation. Such designation will only be permitted if such Restricted Payment would be permitted at such time and if such Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

Any designation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary by the Board of Managers shall be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the Trustee a certified copy of the resolution of the Board of Managers of the Company giving effect to such designation and an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such designation complied with the terms of the Indenture governing the designation of Unrestricted Subsidiaries and was permitted by this Section 4.7. If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary fails to meet the foregoing requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it shall thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of the Indenture and any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary shall be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company as of such date (and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under the covenant described under Section 4.9 hereof, the Company shall be in default of such covenant). The Board of Managers of the Company may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that such designation shall be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of

the Company of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary and such designation shall only be permitted if (i) such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 4.9 hereof calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the four-quarter reference period, (ii) such Subsidiary shall execute a Note Guarantee and deliver an Opinion of Counsel in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and (iii) no Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation.

SECTION 4.8 DIVIDEND AND OTHER PAYMENT RESTRICTIONS AFFECTING SUBSIDIARIES.

The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to (i) (a) pay dividends or make any other distributions to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (1) on its Capital Stock or (2) with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits, or (b) pay any Indebtedness owed to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, (ii) make loans or advances to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or (iii) transfer any of its properties or assets to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries. However, the foregoing restrictions will not apply to encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of (a) Existing Indebtedness as in effect on the date of this Indenture (b) the Senior Credit Facility as in effect as of the date of this Indenture, and any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings thereof, provided that such amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are no more restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions than those contained in the Senior Credit Facility as in effect on the date of this Indenture, (c) this Indenture and the Notes, (d) applicable law, (e) any instrument governing Indebtedness or Capital Stock of a Person acquired by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries as in effect at the time of such acquisition (except to the extent such Indebtedness was incurred in connection with or in contemplation of such acquisition), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired, provided that, in the case of Indebtedness, such Indebtedness was permitted by the terms of this Indenture to be incurred, (f) customary non-assignment provisions in leases entered into in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practices, (g) purchase money obligations for property acquired in the ordinary course of business that impose restrictions of the nature described in clause (iii) above on the property so acquired, (h) any agreement for the sale of a Restricted Subsidiary that restricts distributions by that Restricted Subsidiary pending its sale, (i) Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness, provided that the restrictions contained in the agreements governing such Permitted Financing Indebtedness are no more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in the agreements governing the Indebtedness being refinanced, (j) secured Indebtedness otherwise permitted to be incurred pursuant to the provisions of the covenant described in Section 4.12 hereof that limits the right of the debtor to dispose of the assets securing such Indebtedness, (k) provisions with respect to the disposition or distribution of assets or property in joint venture agreements and other similar agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business, (1) restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by customers under contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business, (m) any Purchase Money Note, or other

Indebtedness or other contractual requirements of a Securitization Entity in connection with a Qualified Securitization Transaction; provided that such restrictions apply only to such Securitization Entity, (n) other Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor permitted to be incurred subsequent to the date of this Indenture pursuant to the provisions of the covenant described in Section 4.9 hereof; provided that any such restrictions are ordinary and customary with respect to the type of Indebtedness or preferred stock being incurred or issued (under the relevant circumstances), and (o) any encumbrances or restrictions imposed by any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of the contracts, instruments or obligations referred to in clauses (a) through (n) above; provided that such amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are, in the good faith judgment of the Company’s Board of Managers, no more restrictive with respect to such dividend and payment restrictions than those contained in the dividend or other payment restrictions prior to such amendment, modification, restatement, renewal, increase, supplement, refunding, replacement or refinancing.

SECTION 4.9 INCURRENCE OF INDEBTEDNESS AND ISSUANCE OF PREFERRED STOCK.

The Issuers shall not, and shall not permit any of their Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) and the Issuers shall not issue any Disqualified Stock and shall not permit any of their Restricted Subsidiaries to issue any shares of preferred stock; provided, however, that the Company or any Guarantor may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue shares of Disqualified Stock or preferred stock if (i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of or as consequence of the incurrence of any such Indebtedness or the issuance of any such Disqualified Stock and (ii) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Company’s most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Stock is issued would have been at least 2.0 to 1.0, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred, or the Disqualified Stock had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such four-quarter period.

The provisions of the first paragraph of this Section 4.9 shall not apply to the incurrence of any of the following items of Indebtedness (collectively, “Permitted Debt”):

(i) the incurrence by the Company (and the guarantee thereof by the Guarantors) of Indebtedness and letters of credit under one or more Senior Credit Facilities; provided that the aggregate principal amount of all Indebtedness (with letters of credit being deemed to have a principal amount equal to the maximum potential liability of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries thereunder) outstanding under all Senior Credit Facilities after giving effect to such incurrence does not exceed an amount equal to the greater of (x) $275.0 million less the aggregate amount of all repayments of any term Indebtedness and all commitment reductions of any revolving Indebtedness, in each case, under one or more Senior Credit Facilities pursuant to

clause (i) of the third paragraph of the covenant described in Section 4.10 hereof and (y) the Company’s Borrowing Base;

SECTION 4.10 ASSET SALES.

The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless (i) the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value (evidenced by a resolution of the Board of Managers set forth in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee) of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of and (ii) at least 75% of the consideration therefor received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents; provided that the amount of (x) any liabilities (as shown on the Company’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet) of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any guarantee thereof) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to a customary novation agreement that releases the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from further liability and (y) any securities, notes or other obligations received by the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are immediately converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash (to the extent of the cash received) shall be deemed to be cash for purposes of this provision.

Notwithstanding the immediately preceding paragraph, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall be permitted to consummate an Asset Sale without complying with the prior paragraph if (i) the Company or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value of the assets or other property sold, issued or otherwise disposed of (as evidenced by a resolution of the Company’s Board of Managers set forth in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee) and (ii) at least 75% of the consideration for such Asset Sale constitutes a controlling interest in a Permitted Business, long-term assets used or useful in a Permitted Business and/or cash or Cash Equivalents; provided that any cash or Cash Equivalents received by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with any Asset Sale permitted to be consummated under this paragraph shall constitute Net Proceeds subject to the provisions of the next succeeding paragraph.

Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, the Company may apply such Net Proceeds, at its option, (i) to repay Senior Debt and, in the case of any Senior Debt under any revolving credit facility, effect a corresponding commitment reduction under such credit facility, (ii) to the acquisition of a controlling interest in a Permitted Business, the making of a capital expenditure or the acquisition of other Additional Assets or (iii) a combination of prepayment and investment permitted by the forgoing clauses (i) and (ii). Pending the final application of any such Net Proceeds, the Company may temporarily reduce revolving credit borrowings or otherwise invest such Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Indenture. Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in the first sentence of this paragraph will be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $10.0 million, the Issuers will be required to make an offer to all Holders of Notes (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds, at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages thereon, if any, to the date of purchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture (the first date the aggregate of all such Net Proceeds is equal to $10.0 million or more shall be deemed an “Asset Sale Offer Trigger Date”). Each Asset Sale Offer will be mailed to the record Holders as shown on the register of Holders within 25 days following the Asset Sale Offer Trigger Date, with a copy to the Trustee, and shall comply with the procedures set forth in this Indenture. Upon receiving notice of the Asset Sale Offer, Holders may elect to tender their Notes in whole or in part in integral multiples of $1,000 in exchange for cash. To the extent that any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company may use such Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes tendered into such Asset Sale Offer surrendered by Holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be purchased among the Holders of the Notes in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed or, if the Notes are not so listed, on a pro rata basis, by lot or in accordance with any other method the Trustee considers fair and appropriate. Upon completion of such offer to purchase, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero.

The Issuers shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Asset Sale provisions of this Indenture, the Issuers shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached their obligations under the Asset Sale provisions of this Indenture by virtue thereof.

SECTION 4.11 TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.

The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate (each of the foregoing, an “Affiliate Transaction”), unless (i) such Affiliate Transaction is on

terms that are no less favorable to the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person and (ii) the Company delivers to the Trustee (a) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $3.0 million, a resolution of the Board of Managers set forth in an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (i) above and that such Affiliate Transaction has been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Managers and (b) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $10.0 million, an opinion as to the fairness to the Holders of such Affiliate Transaction from a financial point of view issued by an Independent Financial Advisor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following items shall not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions: (i) any employment agreement entered into by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business and consistent with the past practice of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, (ii) transactions exclusively between or among the Company and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries, provided such transactions have not otherwise been prohibited by this Indenture, (iii) payment of reasonable directors fees to Persons who are not otherwise Affiliates of the Company, (iv) transactions effected as part of a Qualified Securitization Transaction, (v) Restricted Payments that are permitted by the provisions of Section 4.7 hereof, (vi) reasonable fees and compensation paid to, and indemnity provided on behalf of, officers, directors, employees or consultants of the Company or any Subsidiary as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Managers or senior management, (vii) the payment of consulting and advisory fees, annual management fees and related expenses to the Principals made pursuant to any financial advisory, financing, underwriting or placement agreement or in respect of other investment banking activities, including, without limitation, in connection with acquisitions or divestitures which are approved by the Board of Managers of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary in good faith, (viii) any agreement as in effect on the date of this Indenture or any amendment thereto or any transaction contemplated thereby (including pursuant to any amendment thereto) in any replacement agreement thereto so long as any such amendment or replacement agreement is not more disadvantageous to the Holders in any material respect than the original agreement as in effect on the date of this Indenture, (ix) payments or loans to employees or consultants which are approved by the Board of Managers of the Company in good faith, (x) the existence of, or the performance by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of its obligations under the terms of, any stockholders agreement (including any registration rights agreement or purchase agreement related thereto) to which it is a party as of the date of this Indenture and any similar agreements which it may enter into thereafter; provided, however, that the existence of, or the performance by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of obligations under, any future amendment to any such existing agreement or under any similar agreement entered into after the date of this Indenture shall only be permitted by this clause (x) to the extent that the terms of any such amendment or new agreement are not otherwise disadvantageous to the Holders of the Notes in any material respect, (xi) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers, joint venture partners or purchasers or sellers of goods or services, in each case in the ordinary course of business (including, without limitation, pursuant to joint venture agreements) and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture which are fair to the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries, in the good faith determination of the Board of Managers of the Company or the senior management thereof, or are on terms at least as favorable as might reasonably have been

obtained at such time from an unaffiliated party and (xii) in the case of foreign joint ventures, transfers of equipment for sale outside of North America in exchange for value not less than the Company’s cost of producing such equipment.

SECTION 4.12 LIENS.

The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any Lien of any kind securing Indebtedness or trade payables (other than Permitted Liens) upon any of their property or assets, now owned or hereafter acquired, unless (i) in the case of Liens securing Indebtedness that is expressly subordinated or junior in right of payment to the Notes, the Notes are secured on a senior basis to the obligations so secured until such time as such obligations are no longer secured by a Lien and (ii) in all other cases, the Notes are secured on an equal and ratable basis with the obligations so secured until such time as such obligations are no longer secured by a Lien.

SECTION 4.13 BUSINESS ACTIVITIES.

The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, engage in any line of business other than Permitted Businesses, except to such extent as would not be material to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole, and ALC shall not own any operating assets or other properties or conduct any business other than to serve as an Issuer and obligor on the Notes.

SECTION 4.14 CORPORATE EXISTENCE.

Subject to Article 5 hereof, the Issuers shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect (i) their limited liability company or corporate existence, and the corporate, partnership, limited liability company or other existence of each of their Subsidiaries, in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of the Issuers or any such Subsidiary and (ii) the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Issuers and their Subsidiaries; provided, however, that the Issuers shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the corporate, partnership, limited liability company or other existence of any of their Subsidiaries, if the Board of Managers or the Board of Directors, as the case may be, shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Issuers and their Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and that the loss thereof is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders of the Notes.

SECTION 4.15 OFFER TO REPURCHASE UPON CHANGE OF CONTROL.

(a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each Holder of Notes shall have the right to require the Issuers to repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof) of such Holder’s Notes pursuant to the offer described in this Section 4.15 (the “Change of Control Offer”) at an offer price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages thereon, if any, to the date of

purchase (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within 10 days following any Change of Control, the Issuers shall mail a notice to each Holder describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control and offering to repurchase Notes on the date specified in such notice, which date shall be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), pursuant to the procedures required by this Indenture and described in such notice. The Issuers shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control.

(b) On a Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuers shall, to the extent lawful, (i) accept for payment all Notes or portions thereof properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, (ii) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions thereof so tendered and (iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes so accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions thereof being purchased by the Issuers. The Paying Agent shall promptly mail to each Holder of Notes so tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee shall upon receipt of an Authentication Order authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that each such new Note shall be in a principal amount of $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof. Prior to complying with the provisions of this Section 4.15, but in any event within 90 days following a Change of Control, the Issuers shall either repay all outstanding Senior Debt or obtain the requisite consents, if any, under all agreements governing outstanding Senior Debt to permit the repurchase of Notes required by this Section 4.15. The Issuers shall publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

The Change of Control provisions described above will be applicable whether or not other provisions of this Indenture are applicable.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.15, the Issuers shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control (i) if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in a manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 4.15 and Section 3.09 hereof and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer or (ii) the Issuers exercise their option to purchase all the Notes upon a Change of Control as described in Section 3.07 hereof.

SECTION 4.16 NO SENIOR SUBORDINATED DEBT.

SECTION 4.17 LIMITATION ON ISSUANCES OF GUARANTEES OF INDEBTEDNESS.

The Company shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary, directly or indirectly, to guarantee or pledge any assets to secure the payment of any other Indebtedness of the Company unless such Restricted Subsidiary simultaneously executes and delivers a supplemental indenture to this Indenture providing for the Guarantee of the payment of the Notes by such Restricted Subsidiary, which Guarantee shall be senior to or pari passu with such Restricted Subsidiary’s Guarantee of or pledge to secure such other Indebtedness, unless such other Indebtedness is Senior Debt, in which case the Guarantee of the Notes may be subordinated to the Guarantee of such Senior Debt to the same extent as the Notes are subordinated to such Senior Debt. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such Guarantee by a Subsidiary of the Notes shall provide by its terms that it shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon any sale, exchange or transfer, to any Person not an Affiliate of the Company, of all of the Company’s stock in, or all or substantially all the assets of, such Restricted Subsidiary, which sale, exchange or transfer is made in compliance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture.

SECTION 4.18 PAYMENTS FOR CONSENT.

Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration, whether by way of interest, fee or otherwise, to any Holder of any Notes for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid or is paid to all Holders of the Notes that consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement.

(c) Section 5.1 of Article Five of the Indenture (as reproduced below) shall be eliminated in its entirety except for its heading and be replaced with the words “INTENTIONALLY OMITTED”.

Neither Issuer may consolidate or merge with or into (whether or not such Issuer is the surviving corporation), or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets in one or more related transactions, to another corporation, Person or entity unless (i) the Company is the surviving corporation or the entity or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Company) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition shall have been made is a corporation organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia; (ii) the entity or Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than such Issuer) or the entity or Person to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition shall have been made assumes all the obligations of the Issuers under the Registration Rights Agreement, the Notes and this Indenture pursuant to a supplemental indenture in a form satisfactory to the Trustee; (iii) immediately prior

thereto and immediately after such transaction no Default or Event of Default exists; and (iv) except in the case of a merger of the Company with or into a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company and except in the case of a merger entered into solely for the purpose of reincorporating the Company in another jurisdiction, the Company or the entity or Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Company), or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition shall have been made will immediately after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such transaction had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, (x) be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in the first paragraph of the covenant described in Section 4.9 hereof or (y) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Company or the entity or Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Company) would be greater than such ratio for the Company or such surviving entity immediately prior to such transaction.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall be permitted to reorganize as a corporation in accordance with the procedures established in this Indenture, provided that the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that such reorganization is not adverse to Holders of the Notes (it being recognized that such reorganization shall not be deemed adverse to the Holders of the Notes solely because (i) of the accrual of deferred tax liabilities resulting from such reorganization or (ii) the successor or surviving corporation (a) is subject to income tax as a corporate entity or (b) is considered to be an “includible corporation” of an affiliated group of corporations within the meaning of the Code or any similar state or local law) and certain other conditions are satisfied.

The entity or the Person formed by or surviving any consolidation or merger (if other than the Company) will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Issuers under this Indenture, but, in the case of a lease of all or substantially all its assets, neither Issuer will be released from the obligation to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes.

(d) Section 5.2(b)(iii) of Article Five of the Indenture (as reproduced below) shall be eliminated in its entirety and be replaced with the words “INTENTIONALLY OMITTED”:

(b)(iii) if such merger or consolidation is with a Person other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, (x) immediately after such transaction no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing any (y) the Company will, at the time of such transaction after giving pro forma effect thereto, be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in the covenant described in Section 4.9 hereof. The Successor Guarantor will succeed to, and be substituted for, such Guarantor under this Indenture, the Registration Rights Agreement and such Guarantor’s Guarantee.

(e) Each of the following sections of Article Eight of the Indenture shall be eliminated in its entirety except for its heading and be replaced with the words “INTENTIONALLY OMITTED”:

Upon the Issuers’ exercise under Section 8.1 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.3, the Issuers and each Guarantor shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.4 hereof, be released from its obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.7, 4.8, 4.9, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.15, 4.16, 4.18, 4.19, and 5.1 hereof with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.4 are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes, the Issuers may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.1 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.1 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.3 hereof, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8. hereof, Sections 6.1(d) through 6.1(f) hereof shall not constitute Events of Default.

(v) The Issuers shall not be required (A) to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange any Notes during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of any selection of Notes for redemption under Section 3.2 hereof and ending at the close of business on the day of selection, (B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part or (c) to register the transfer or to exchange a Note between a record date and the next succeeding interest payment date.

SECTION 6.2 ACCELERATION.

If any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (h) or (i) of Section 6.1 hereof with respect to the Issuers or any Subsidiaries) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may

declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately; provided, that so long as Senior Debt or any commitment therefore is outstanding under the Senior Credit Facility, any such notice shall not be effective until the earlier of (i) five Business Days after such notice is delivered to the representative for such Senior Debt or (ii) the acceleration of the Senior Debt under the Senior Credit Facility. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default specified in clause (h) or (i) of Section 6.1 hereof occurs with respect to the Issuers, any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company that constitutes a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, all outstanding Notes shall be due and payable without further action or notice. Holders of the Notes may not enforce this Indenture or the Notes except as provided in this Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes rescind an acceleration and its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default (except nonpayment of principal, interest or premium that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or waived.

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by written notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event or Default and its consequences under this Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest on, or the principal of, the Notes.

The Company is required upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, to deliver to the Trustee a written statement specifying such Default or Event of Default.

(i) Each of the following sections of Article Seven of the Indenture shall be amended as follows (with deleted language marked as stricken and added language underlined):

SECTION 7.7 COMPENSATION AND INDEMNITY.

The Issuers and the Guarantors jointly and severally agree to pay to the Trustee from time to time compensation as agreed upon by the Trustee and the Issuers, and, in the absence of any such agreement, reasonable compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuers and the Guarantors shall reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel .

The Issuers and the Guarantors shall indemnify the Trustee against any and all losses, liabilities or expenses incurred by it arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Issuers and the Guarantors (including this Section 7.7) and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Issuers, the Guarantors or any Holder or any other person) or liability in connection with, relating to, or arising out of (i) the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, or in connection herewith, and (ii) the validity, invalidity, adequacy or inadequacy of this Indenture, the Guarantees, the Notes, the Registration Rights Agreement and the Offering Memorandum, except to the extent any such loss, liability or expense may be attributable to its negligence or bad faith. The Trustee shall notify the Issuers and the Guarantors promptly of any claim for which it intends to seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Issuers and the Guarantors shall not relieve the Issuers and the Guarantors of their obligations hereunder. The Issuers and the Guarantors shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Issuers and the Guarantors shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. The Issuers and the Guarantors need not pay for any settlement made without their consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

The obligations of the Issuers and the Guarantors to the Trustee under this Indenture shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and shall be secured by a Lien as provided in Section 6.9 hereof.

To secure the Issuers’ and the Guarantors’ payment obligations in this Section, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal and interest on particular Notes. Such Lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(b) hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

The Trustee shall comply with the provisions of TIA §313(b)(2) to the extent applicable.

(j) Each of the following sections of Article Eight of the Indenture shall be amended as follows:

(d) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit) or insofar as Sections 6.1(h) or 6.1(i) hereof are concerned, at any time in the period ending on the 91st day after the date of deposit;

(k) Each of the following sections of Article Nine of the Indenture shall be amended as the follows (with deleted language marked as stricken and added language underlined):

After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section becomes effective, the Issuers shall mail to the Holders of Notes affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Issuers to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental Indenture or waiver. Subject to Sections 6.4 and 6.7 hereof, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding voting as a single class may waive compliance in a particular instance by the Issuers with any provision of this Indenture or the Notes. However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment or waiver under this Section 9.2 may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder):

(b) reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note or alter or waive any of the provisions with respect to the redemption of the Notes;

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

(f) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of Holders of Notes to receive payments of principal of or premium, if any, or interest or Liquidated Damages, if any, on the Notes;

(h) make any change in the foregoing amendment and waiver provisions.
