"indenture securities" means the Notes;

"indenture security holder" means a Holder of a Note;

"indenture to be qualified" means this Indenture;

"indenture trustee" or "institutional trustee" means the Trustee; and

Section 1.2. Compliance Certificates and Opinions. Upon any application or request by the Company to the Trustee to take any action under any provision of this Indenture, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee such certificates and opinions as may be required under Section 314(c) of the Trust Indenture Act, each such certificate stating that all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with and each such opinion stating that in the opinion of such counsel all such conditions precedent, if any, have been complied with. Each such certificate or opinion shall be given in the form of an Officers' Certificate, if to be given by an Officer of the Company, or an Opinion of Counsel, if to be given by counsel, and shall comply with the requirements of Section 314(c) of the Trust Indenture Act and any other requirements set forth in this Indenture.

Every certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture shall include:

a statement that each individual signing such certificate or opinion has read such condition or covenant and the definitions herein relating thereto;
a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based;
a statement that, in the opinion of each such individual, he or she has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable him or her to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such condition or covenant has been complied with; and
a statement as to whether, in the opinion of each such individual, such condition or covenant has been complied with.

Section 1.3. Form of Documents Delivered to Trustee. In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents.

Any certificate or opinion of an Officer of the Company may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, counsel, unless such Officer knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate or Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an Officer or Officers of the Company stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Company, unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations as to such matters are erroneous.

Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument.

Section 1.4. Acts of Holders.

Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing. Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are received by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "Act" of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 6.1) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section.
The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems reasonably sufficient.
The ownership of Notes shall be proved by references to the Register or in any other reasonable manner which the Trustee deems sufficient.
Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Note shall bind every future Holder of the same Note and the holder of every Note issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Company in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note.

However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to such Holder's Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date such action becomes effective.

If the Company shall solicit from the Holders any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, the Company may, at its option, by or pursuant to an Officers' Certificate delivered to the Trustee, fix in advance a record date (which shall not be more than sixty (60) days prior to the date of such solicitation) for the determination of Holders entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act in the circumstances permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, but the Company shall have no obligation to do so. If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be given before or after such record date, but only the Holders of record at the close of business on such record date shall be deemed to be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of Outstanding Notes have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose the Outstanding Notes shall be computed as of such record date; provided that no such authorization, agreement or consent by the Holders on such record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of clause (a) of this Section 1.4 not later than six months after the record date. If not set by the Company with respect to solicitations by the Company as described in this paragraph 1.4(e) or by the Trustee pursuant to Section 1.13 prior to the first solicitation of a Holder of Notes of such series made by any Person in respect of any such Act, or, in the case of any such vote, prior to such vote, the record date for any such Act or vote shall be the 30^th day (or, if later, the date of the most recent list of Holders required to be provided pursuant to Section 6.8) prior to such first solicitation or vote, as the case may be. With regard to any record date for an Act to be taken by the Holders of one or more series of Notes, only the Holders of Notes of such series on such date (or their duly designated proxies) shall be entitled to give or take, or vote on, the relevant action.

Section 1.5. Notices, etc., to Trustee, Company, and Guarantors. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with,

the Trustee by any Holder, by the Company or by any Guarantor shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office.
the Company by the Trustee, by any Guarantor or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Company addressed to it at Mesa Air Group, Inc., 000 Xxxxx 00xx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx 00000. Attention: General Counsel, or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company, or
any Guarantor by the Trustee, by the Company or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to such Guarantor addressed to it at c/o Mesa Air Group,

Inc., 000 Xxxxx 00xx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx 00000. Attention: General Counsel, or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Guarantor.

Section 1.6. Notice to Holders; Waiver. Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, registered mail, return receipt requested, to each such Holder at its address as it appears in the Register, not later than the latest date (if any), and not earlier than the earliest date (if any), prescribed for the giving of such notice and, in those cases where notice by publication is expressly permitted or expressly required by the terms of this Indenture or the TIA, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if published once in an Authorized Newspaper.

In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders of Notes given as provided herein. In any case where notice is given to any Holder by publication pursuant to the express provisions of this Indenture (unless otherwise herein expressly provided), neither the failure to publish such notice, nor any defect in any notice so published, shall affect the sufficiency of any notice by mail to other Holders of Notes given as provided herein. Any notice mailed to a Holder in the manner herein prescribed shall be conclusively deemed to have been received by such Holder, whether or not such Holder actually receives such notice.

If by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice as provided above, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder. If it is impossible or, in the opinion of the Trustee, impracticable to give any notice by publication in the manner herein required, then such publication in lieu thereof as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient publication of such notice.

Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver required or permitted under this Indenture shall be in the English language.

Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

Section 1.7. Headings and Table of Contents. The Article and Section headings herein, the cross-reference sheet and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and are not intended to be considered a part hereof and shall not affect the construction hereof.

Section 1.8. Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Company shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by any Guarantor shall bind such Guarantor's successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

Section 1.9. Separability. In case any provision of this Indenture or the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 1.10. Benefits of Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes, expressed or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors hereunder and the Holders, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

Section 1.11. Governing Law. THIS INDENTURE, THE NOTES AND THE NOTE GUARANTEES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF NEW YORK. This Indenture is subject to the Trust Indenture Act and if any provision hereof limits, qualifies, or conflicts with a provision of the Trust Indenture Act that is required hereunder to be a part of and govern this Indenture, the Trust Indenture Act shall control. If any provision of this Indenture modifies or excludes any provision of the Trust Indenture Act that may be so modified or excluded, then such provision of the Trust Indenture Act shall be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so modified or to be excluded, as the case may be.

Section 1.12. Legal Holidays. In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, or Stated Maturity of any principal of any Note shall not be a Business Day, then payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such date; provided that no interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, or Stated Maturity, as the case may be.

Section 1.13. Trustee to Establish Record Dates. The Trustee may (or, at the request of Holders holding a majority in aggregate principal amount of Notes, shall) fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to make, give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to be made, given or taken by Holders; provided that the record date for any such action solicited by the Company shall be governed by Section 1.4(e). If such a record date is fixed, the Holders on such record date and only such Holders, shall be entitled to make, give or take such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date.

Section 1.14. 8% Notes (Series A), 8% Notes (Series B), and US Airways Notes Relative to the Management Notes. The 8% Notes (Series A), 8% Notes (Series B), and US Airways Notes shall be senior and prior in right of payment to the Management Notes as provided in Article 12 hereof. The 8% Notes (Series A), 8% Notes (Series B), US Airways Notes and Management Notes shall be subject to mandatory prepayment following a Spirit Liquidity Event in the priority set forth in Section 10.6 of this Indenture.

Section 1.15. No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees and Stockholders. No past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the

Company or any Guarantor, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Company or any Guarantor under the Notes, this Indenture, the Note Guarantees or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws.

Section 1.16. Communication by Holders with Other Holders. Holders of Notes may communicate pursuant to Section 312(b) of the TIA with other Holders with respect to their rights under this Indenture or the Notes. The Company, the Trustee, the Registrar and anyone else shall have the protection of Section 312(c) of the TIA.

Section 1.17. Company Responsible for Making Calculations. Unless otherwise specified in this Indenture, the Company will be responsible for making all calculations called for under this Indenture and the Notes. These calculations include, but are not limited to, determination of the amount of accrued and unpaid interest payable on the Notes and the amount of Additional Notes issuable in lieu of interest pursuant to this Indenture and Section 1 of the Notes. The Company will make these calculations in good faith, and, absent bad faith or manifest error, these calculations will be final and binding on the Holders. Promptly after the calculation thereof, the Company will provide to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate setting forth a schedule of its calculations, and the Trustee is entitled to conclusively rely upon the accuracy of such calculations without independent verification. The Trustee will forward the Company's calculations to any Holder upon the request of such Holder.

Subject to the payment subordination provisions in Section 10.6 and Article 12 hereof, all Notes shall be substantially identical except as to denomination, Stated Maturity and the date from which interest, if any, shall accrue. All Notes of any one series need not be issued at the same time and, unless otherwise provided, a series may be reopened, without the consent

of the Holders, for issuances of additional Notes of such series in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.

Section 3.2. Denominations. Any Notes shall be issuable in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof.

Section 3.3. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating. The Notes shall be executed on behalf of the Company by the Chairman, President, Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer under its corporate seal reproduced thereon and attested to by the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary of the Company. The signatures of such Officers on the Notes may be manual or facsimile. The Notes bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper Officers of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Notes or did not hold such offices at the date of such Notes.

At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Notes of any series executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication, and make available for delivery such Notes, and the Trustee in accordance with the Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Notes.

Prior to the issuance of the Notes of any series after the date of this Indenture, the Trustee shall receive and (subject to Section 6.1) shall be fully protected in relying upon an Opinion of Counsel complying with Section 1.2 which shall also state:

that the form of such Notes has been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;
that the terms of such Notes have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;
that such Notes, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and other laws of general applicability relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights and to general equity principles;
that the Note Guarantees attached to such Notes will constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of the Guarantors, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and other laws of general applicability relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights and to general equity principles;
that all laws and requirements in respect of the execution and delivery by the Company of the Notes and the execution and delivery by the Guarantors of the Note Guarantees have been complied with; and

such other matters as the Trustee may reasonably request.

If the Notes of a series are to be issued in whole or in part in global form, then the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall, in accordance with this Section and the Company Order with respect to such series, authenticate and deliver one or more Notes in global form that (i) shall represent and shall be denominated in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes of such series to be represented by such Note in global form, (ii) shall be registered in the name of the Depositary for such Note or Notes in global form or the nominee of such Depositary and (iii) shall be delivered by the Trustee to such Depositary or pursuant to such Depositary's instruction.

Each Depositary designated by the Company for a Note in global form must, at the time of its designation and at all times while it serves as Depositary, be a clearing agency registered under the Securities Exchange Act and any other applicable statute or regulation. The Trustee shall have no responsibility to determine if the Depositary is so registered. Each Depositary shall enter into an agreement with the Company governing the respective duties and rights of such Depositary and the Company with regard to Notes issued in global form.

No Note shall be entitled to any benefits under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose until authenticated by the manual signature of one of the authorized signatories of the Trustee or an Authenticating Agent. Such signature upon any Note shall be conclusive evidence and the only evidence, that such Note has been duly authenticated and delivered under this Indenture and is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Note shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such Note to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 3.9 together with a written statement (which need not comply with Section 1.2 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel) stating that such Note has never been issued and sold by the Company, for all purposes of this Indenture such Note shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall not be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

Section 3.4. Temporary Notes. Pending the preparation of definitive Notes of any series, the Company may execute and, upon Company Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver temporary Notes of such series which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor and form of the definitive Notes in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the Officers executing such Notes may determine, as conclusively evidenced by their execution of such Notes. In the case of Notes of any series, such temporary Notes may be in global form.

Except in the case of temporary Notes in global form, each of which shall be exchanged in accordance with the provisions thereof, if temporary Notes of any series are issued, the Company will cause permanent Notes of such series to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After preparation of such permanent Notes of such series, the temporary Notes of such series shall be exchangeable for such permanent Notes of such series of like tenor upon surrender of the temporary Notes of such series at the office or agency of the Company pursuant to Section 9.2 in

a Place of Payment for such series, without charge to and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of permanent Notes of the same series of authorized denominations and of like tenor. Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as permanent Notes of such series.

Section 3.5. Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange. The Company shall cause to be kept at one of its offices or agencies to be maintained in accordance with Section 9.2 in a Place of Payment a register (the "Register") in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Notes and the registration of transfers and exchanges of Notes and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Trustee is hereby appointed as the initial "Registrar" for the purpose of registering Notes and transfers and exchanges of Notes as herein provided.

Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note of any series at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 9.2 in a Place of Payment for that series, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees one or more new Notes of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor.

At the option of the Holder of any series, Notes (except a Note in global form) may be exchanged for other Notes of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount containing identical terms and provisions, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Notes which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

Notwithstanding any other provision (other than the provisions set forth in the sixth and seventh paragraphs of this Section) of this Section, unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for Notes in certificated form, a Note in global form representing all or a portion of the Notes of a series may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary for such series to a nominee of such Depositary or by a nominee of such Depositary to such Depositary or another nominee of such Depositary or by such Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary for such series or a nominee of such successor Depositary.

If at any time the Depositary for the Notes of a series notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the Notes of such series or if at any time the Depositary for the Notes of such series shall no longer be eligible under Section 3.3, the Company shall appoint a successor Depositary with respect to the Notes of such series. If a successor Depositary for the Notes of such series is not appointed by the Company within ninety (90)　days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such ineligibility, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of certificated Notes of such series of like tenor, shall authenticate and deliver Notes of such series of like tenor in certificated form, in authorized denominations and in an aggregate

principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Note of Notes of such series of like tenor in global form in exchange for such Note or Notes in global form.

The Company may at any time in its sole discretion determine that Notes of a series issued in global form shall no longer be represented by such Notes in global form. In such event the Company shall execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of certificated Note or Notes of such series of like tenor, shall authenticate and deliver, Notes of such series of like tenor in certificated form, in authorized denominations and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Note or Notes of such series of like tenor in global form in exchange for such Note or Notes in global form.

The Depositary may surrender a Note in global form in exchange in whole or in part for Notes of such series in certificated form on such terms as are acceptable to the Company and such Depositary. Thereupon, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, without service charge,

to each Person specified by such Depositary a new certificated Note or Notes of the same series, of like tenor, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Person in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for such Person's beneficial interest in the Note in global form; and
to such Depositary a new Note in global form of like tenor in a denomination equal to the difference, if any, between the principal amount of the surrendered Note in global form and the aggregate principal amount of certificated Notes delivered to Holders thereof.

Upon the exchange of a Note in global form for Notes in certificated form, such Note in global form shall be cancelled by the Trustee. Notes in certificated form issued in exchange for a Note in global form pursuant to this Section shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary for such Note in global form, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee. The Trustee shall deliver such Notes to the Persons in whose names such Notes are so registered.

Whenever any Notes are surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Notes which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or upon any exchange of Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

Every Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company, the Registrar or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to those of the Company, the Registrar and the Trustee requiring such written instrument of transfer duly executed by the Holder thereof or such Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing.

No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any registration of transfer or for any exchange of Notes, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration or transfer or exchange of Notes, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 3.4 or Section 10.6 not involving any transfer.

The Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of, or exchange any Notes for a period beginning at the opening of business fifteen (15) days before the day of the mailing of a notice of redemption of Notes of that series selected for redemption under Section　10.3 and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing; or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Note so selected for redemption, in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.

Section 3.6. Replacement Notes. If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee, together with such security or indemnity as may be required by the Company or the Trustee to save each of them harmless, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver a replacement Notes of the same series, principal amount and Stated Maturity, if the Trustee's requirements are met.

If there shall be delivered to the Company and the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a replacement Note of the same series, principal amount and Stated Maturity containing identical terms and provisions and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay such Note.

Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.

Every new Note of any series issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes of that series duly issued hereunder.

The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

Section 3.7. Paying Agent. The Company shall maintain an office or agency in accordance with Section 9.2 in a Place of Payment where the Notes may be presented for payment to the Paying Agent. The Company may have one or more additional Paying Agents. The term "Paying Agent" includes any additional paying agent. Neither the Company nor any Affiliate or Guarantor may act as Paying Agent.

If the Company shall appoint any Agent not a party to this Indenture, the Company shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with such Agent. 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 such Agent. If the Company fails to maintain a Paying Agent, or fails to give the foregoing notice, the Trustee shall act as such.

The Trustee is hereby appointed as the initial Paying Agent. The Trustee may appoint such agents as it deems appropriate to act for it in performing such capacities.

Section 3.8. Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. Not later than [10:00 A.M. New York time] each due date of the principal and interest on any Notes, the Company or the Guarantors, as the case may be, shall deposit with a Paying Agent money sufficient to pay such principal, premium, if any, and interest so becoming due. Each Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Noteholders or the Trustee all money held by such paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Company (or by the Guarantors) in making any such payment. The Company at any time, and the Trustee at any time during the continuance of any Default, may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon doing so the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money.

Section 3.9. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved.

Interest, if any, on any Note which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest at the office or agency maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 9.2. In the case of an installment of interest which is due on any Interest Payment Date (excluding the final Stated Maturity), interest shall be paid by issuing Additional Notes in aggregate principal amount equal to the amount of interest due on the applicable Interest Payment Date in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and the Notes mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as it shall appear on the Register of Holders of Notes. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, all payments of interest that shall become due and payable on the final Stated Maturity with respect to any Note shall be payable in cash in the manner set forth herein.
Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.9 and Section 3.5, each Note delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Notes.

Section 3.10. Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentment of any Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Note is registered as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of, premium, if any, and (subject to Section 3.9) interest on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

None of the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Note in global form, or for maintaining supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Note in global form, nothing herein shall prevent the Company or the Trustee, or any agent of the Company or the Trustee, from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by any Depositary (or its nominee), as a Holder, with respect to such Note in global form or impair, as between such Depositary and owners of beneficial interests in such Note in global form, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of such Depositary (or its nominee) as Holder of such Note in global form.

Section 3.11. Cancellation. All Notes surrendered for payment, redemption or registration of transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and, upon receipt, shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Company at any time may deliver Notes previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee (or any other Person for delivery to the Trustee, on its behalf) for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated hereunder which the Company has not issued and sold, and all Notes so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Notes held by the Trustee shall be disposed of as directed by a Company Order at the sole expense of the Company.

Section 3.12. Computation of Interest. Interest on any Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year, consisting of twelve 30-day months.

Section 3.13. CUSIP Numbers. The Company in issuing the Notes may use "CUSIP" numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use "CUSIP" numbers (in addition to the other identification numbers printed on the Notes) in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers.

the Company or any Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company; and

the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as to such series have been complied with.

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the obligation of the Company to the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee under Section 6.9, the obligations of the Company to any Authenticating Agent under Section 6.14 and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (B) of clause (1) of this Section, the obligations under Sections 3.3, 3.5, 3.6, 3.10, and 4.2, the last paragraph of Section 9.3 and Article 5 as it relates to the above-mentioned Sections and Articles shall survive until the Notes have been indefeasibly paid in full; provided, however, that the Company shall reimburse the Trustee for any costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee in connection with effectuating the provisions of Sections 4.2 and 9.3.

Section 4.2. Application of Trust Funds. Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 9.3, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.1 shall be held in trust in the form of cash or Government Obligations and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal, premium, if any, and any interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with or received by the Trustee, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

Section 4.3. Company's Option to Effect Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The Company may at its option by Board Resolution, at any time, with respect to the Notes and the Note Guarantees related to such Notes, elect to have Section 4.4 (if applicable) or Section 4.5 (if applicable) be applied to such Outstanding Notes and the Note Guarantees related to such Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article 4.

Section 4.4. Defeasance and Discharge. Upon the Company's exercise of the option specified in Section 4.3 applicable to this Section with respect to the Notes of a series, the Company and the Guarantors shall be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to such Notes of such series and the Note Guarantees related to such Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 4.6 are satisfied (hereinafter "defeasance"). For this purpose, such defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by such Notes and the Note Guarantees related to such Notes which shall thereafter be deemed to be "Outstanding" only for the purposes of Section 4.7 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clause (ii) of this Section, and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Notes, such Note Guarantees and this Indenture insofar as such Notes and such Note Guarantees are concerned (and the Trustee, at the cost and expense of the Company, shall on Company Order execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (i) the rights of Holders of Outstanding Notes of such series to receive, solely from the trust funds described in Section 4.6(a) and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on such Notes when such payments are due; (ii) the Company's obligations with respect to such Notes under Section

Subject to compliance with this Article 4, the Company may exercise its option under this Section notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 4.5 with respect to such Notes and the Note Guarantee related to such Notes. Following a defeasance, payment of such Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default.

Section 4.5. Covenant Defeasance. Upon the Company's exercise of the option specified in Section 4.3 applicable to this Section with respect to any Notes of a series, the Company shall be released from its obligations under Section 7.1 and Section 9.5 with respect to such Notes and the Note Guarantees related to such Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 4.6 are satisfied (hereinafter, "covenant defeasance"), and such Notes shall thereafter be deemed to be 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 Section 7.1 and Section 9.5 but shall continue to be deemed "Outstanding" for all other purposes hereunder. For this purpose, such covenant defeasance means that, with respect to such Notes, the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such Section, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section or such other covenant or by reason of reference in any such Section or such other 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 5.1(4) or otherwise, as the case may be, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes and the Note Guarantees related to such Notes shall be unaffected thereby.

Section 4.6. Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The following shall be the conditions to application of Section 4.4 or Section 4.5 to any Notes of a series:

The Company shall have deposited or caused to be deposited irrevocably with the Trustee (or another trustee satisfying the requirements of Section 6.11 who shall agree to comply with, and shall be entitled to the benefits of, the provisions of Section 4.3 through Section 4.8 inclusive and the last paragraph of Section 9.3 applicable to the Trustee, for purposes of such Sections also a "Trustee") as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the payments referred to below, specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to, the benefit of the Holders of such Notes, with instructions to the Trustee as to the application thereof, (i) cash in United States dollars in an amount or (ii) Government Obligations which through the payment of interest and principal in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not later than one day before the due date of any payment, cash in United States dollars in an amount or (iii) a combination of cash in United States dollars and Government Obligations in an amount, sufficient, in each case, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee to pay and discharge, the principal of, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on such Notes on the Maturity of such principal or installment of principal or interest on the day on which such payments are due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and such Notes. Before such a deposit the Company may make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the redemption of Notes at a future date or dates in accordance with Article 10 which shall be given effect in applying the foregoing.

Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a Default or Event of Default under, this Indenture or result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other material agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound.
In the case of an election under Section 4.4, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, in each case in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, 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 execution of this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable Federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the Holders of such Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount and in the same manner and at the same times, as would have been the case if such deposit, defeasance and discharge had not occurred.
In the case of an election under Section 4.5, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders of such Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and covenant defeasance and will be subject to 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.
The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, in each case in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, each stating that all conditions precedent to the defeasance under Section 4.4 or the covenant defeasance under Section 4.5 (as the case may be) have been complied with and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that either (i) as a result of a deposit pursuant to subsection (a) above and the related exercise of the Company's option under Section 4.4 or Section 4.5 (as the case may be), registration is not required under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, by the Company, with respect to the trust funds representing such deposit or by the trustee for such trust funds or (ii) all necessary registrations under said act have been effected.
The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, stating that it has been informed by the relevant securities exchange(s) that the Notes, if then listed on any such securities exchange, will not be delisted as a result of such deposit.
No Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes of any series shall have occurred and be continuing (A) on the date of such deposit or (B) insofar as Section 5.1(5) and Section 5.1(6) are concerned, at any time during the period ending on the 121^st day after the date of such deposit or, if longer, ending on the day following the expiration of the longest preference period applicable to the Company in respect of such deposit (it being understood that the condition in this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such period).
Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not (A) cause the Trustee for the Notes of such series to have a conflicting interest as defined in Section 6.12 or for purposes of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act with respect to any securities of the Company or (B)

result in the trust arising from such deposit to constitute, unless it is qualified as, a regulated investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

Section 4.7. Deposited Money and Government Obligations to Be Held in Trust. Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 9.3, all money and Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.6 in respect of any Notes of any series shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

The Company shall indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge, cost or expense imposed on or assessed against the money or non-callable Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 4.7 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon Company Request any money or Government Obligations held by it as provided in this Section 4.7 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants satisfactory to the Trustee (including, without limitation, compliance with any applicable Financial Accounting Standards Board or Commission pronouncements, rules and regulations and computations set forth therein) expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent defeasance or covenant defeasance.

Section 4.8. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any money in United States dollars or Government Obligations in accordance with Section 4.4 or Section 4.5 by reason of any order or judgment or any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company's obligations under the Notes of such series shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article 4 until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 4.4 or Section 4.5; provided, however, that if the Company makes any payment of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any such Notes following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or the Paying Agent.

ARTICLE 5

Defaults and Remedies

Section 5.1. Events of Default. An "Event of Default" occurs with respect to the Notes of any series if (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):

subject to Section 3.9 hereof, the Company defaults in the payment of interest on any Notes when the same becomes due and payable and such Default continues for a period of thirty (30) days;

the Company or any Guarantor pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law (A) commences a voluntary case or proceeding, (B) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case or proceeding or the commencement of any case against it, (C) consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property, or (D) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors;

any Note Guarantee ceases to be in full force and effect or is declared null and void or any Guarantor denies that it has any further liability under any Note Guarantee, or gives notices to such effect (other than by reason of the termination of this Indenture or the release of any such Note Guarantee in accordance with this Indenture), and such condition shall have continued for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice of such failure requiring such Guarantor or the Company to remedy the same shall have been given to the Company by the Trustee or the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of 25% in the aggregate principal amount at maturity of the Notes Outstanding. For purposes of clarification, this 30-day grace period is in place of and not in addition to the 60-day grace period in Section 5.1(4) above; or

[the Company or any Guarantor defaults in any payment of principal of or interest on any other obligation or guarantee for money borrowed (or any lease capitalized under GAAP, any obligation under a conditional sale or other title retention agreement, any obligation issued or assumed as full or partial payment for property whether or not secured by a purchase money security interest or any obligation under notes payable or drafts accepted representing extensions of credit) beyond any period of grace provided with respect thereto, or the Company or any Guarantor fails to perform or observe any other agreement, term or condition contained in any agreement under which such obligation is created (or if any other event thereunder or under any such agreement shall occur and be continuing) and the effect of such failure or other event is to cause such obligation to become due prior to any stated maturity; provided that the aggregate amount of all obligations as to which such a payment default shall occur and be continuing or such a failure or other event causing acceleration shall occur and be continuing exceeds $[___].]

Section 5.2. Acceleration; Rescission and Annulment. If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes Outstanding (other than an Event of Default specified in Sections 5.1(5) and 5.1(6)) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of all of the Outstanding Notes, by written notice to the Company (and, if given by the Holders, to the Trustee), may declare the principal of and premium, if any, accrued and unpaid interest on, and all other amounts due with respect to all the Notes to be due and payable and upon any such declaration such principal, premium, interest and other amounts shall be immediately due and payable. In case an Event of Default specified in Sections 5.1(5) or 5.1(6) occurs and is continuing, the principal of, premium, if any, accrued and unpaid interest on, and all other amounts with respect to the Notes shall be automatically due and payable immediately without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or the Holders.

At any time after a declaration of acceleration under the first sentence of the immediately preceding paragraph with respect to Notes has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article 5 provided, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding

the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee additional Notes or a sum sufficient to pay:
1. all overdue installments of interest on all Outstanding Notes,
2. the principal of (and premium, if any, on, and all other amounts due with respect to) any Outstanding Notes which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and interest thereon at the rate borne by the Notes,

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

all existing Defaults and Events of Default with respect to Notes, other than the non-payment of the principal of and premium, if any, on, and other amounts due with respect to the Notes which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.7. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Section 5.3. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. The Company covenants that if an Event of Default specified in Section 5.1(1) or (2) occurs, the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of such Notes, the whole amount then due and payable on such Notes for principal, premium, if any, and interest with interest on any overdue principal, premium, if any, and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, on any overdue interest, at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Notes and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

If the Company fails to pay such amount forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same against the Company, any Guarantor or any other obligor upon the Notes and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company, any Guarantor or any other obligor upon the Notes, wherever situated.

If an Event of Default with respect to Notes occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of Holders of Notes by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy.

Section 5.4. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. In case of any judicial proceeding directly involving the Company (or any Guarantor or any other obligor upon the Notes), its property or its creditors acting as such, the Trustee shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, to take any and all actions authorized under Section 317(a)(2) of the Trust Indenture Act or otherwise in order to have claims of the Holders and the Trustee allowed in any such proceeding. In particular, the Trustee shall be authorized to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such 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 counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.9.

No provision of this Indenture shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

Section 5.5. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Notes. All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Notes may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto. Any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

Section 5.6. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of any Notes to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in any such Event of Default. Every right and remedy given by this Article 5 or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

Section 5.7. Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may waive on behalf of the Holders of all Notes a past Default or Event of Default and its consequences except (i) a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note or (ii) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which pursuant to Section 8.2 cannot be amended or modified without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note adversely affected. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. The Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate stating that the requisite percentage of Holders have consented to such waiver and attach copies of such consents. In case of any such waiver, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder and under the Notes, respectively.

Section 5.8. Control by Majority. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on it with respect to Notes of that series; provided, however, that the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that (i) conflicts with law or this Indenture, (ii) is (in the Trustee's reasonable judgment) prejudicial to the rights of another Holder or the Trustee or (iii) in the Trustee's reasonable judgment, may involve the Trustee in personal liability (unless the Trustee is offered indemnity, reasonably satisfactory to it, against the costs, expenses and liabilities the Trustee may incur to comply with such direction). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with any such direction.

Section 5.9. Limitation on Suits by Holders. No Holder of any Note shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a Custodian, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:

the Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Note;
the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes have made a written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder;
such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity and security against any loss, liability or expense to be, or which may be, incurred by the Trustee in complying with such request;
the Trustee for sixty (60) days after its receipt of such notice, request and the offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceedings; and
during such 60-day period, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes of that series have not given to the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such written request.

No one or more Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice, the rights of any other of such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all of such Holders.

Section 5.10. Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, any Holder of a Note shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, (i) to receive payment of principal of, premium, if any, and, subject to Section 3.5 and Section 3.7, interest on the Note, on or after the respective Stated Maturities expressed in the Note (or, in case of redemption, on the Redemption Dates) and (ii) to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, and such rights shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

Section 5.11. Application of Money Collected. If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article 5, it shall pay out the money in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal, premium, if any, or interest, upon presentation of the Notes and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

First: to the Trustee for amounts due under Section 6.9;

Second: subject to Sections 10.6 and Article 12, to Holders of Notes in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected for amounts due and unpaid on such Notes for principal of, premium, if any, and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of

any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Notes for principal, premium, if any, and interest, respectively; and

Third: to the Company.

Section 5.12. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

Section 5.13. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes in the last paragraph of Section 3.6, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

Section 5.14. 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, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, a court may require any party litigant in such suit to file an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and may assess costs against any such party litigant, in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 315(e) of the Trust Indenture Act; provided, that neither this Section nor the Trust Indenture Act shall be deemed to authorize any court to require such an undertaking or to make such an assessment in any suit instituted by the Company, by the Trustee, by a Holder pursuant to Section 5.10 or by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of Outstanding Notes.

Section 5.15. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. Each of the Company and each Guarantor covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will 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, which would prohibit or forgive the Company or any Guarantor from paying all or any portion of the principal of or premium on any Notes when the same becomes due and payable at Maturity or on redemption, repurchase at the option of Holders or otherwise as contemplated herein, or may affect the covenants contained herein or any usury or other law or the performance of this Indenture and each of the Company and any Guarantor (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

ARTICLE 6

The Trustee

Section 6.1. Certain Duties and Responsibilities.

Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:
1. The Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and
2. In the absence of negligence or willful misconduct on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture.
In case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Notes, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture with respect to the Notes, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own affairs.
No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that:
1. this subsection shall not be construed to limit the effect of subsection (a) of this Section;
2. the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and
3. the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture with respect to the Notes.
No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section.

Section 6.2. Notice of Defaults. If a Default occurs and is continuing with respect to the Notes of any such series and if it is known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall, within the earlier of ninety (90) days after it occurs or thirty (30) days after it actually becomes known to the Trustee, transmit, to the Holders, in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 313(c) of the Trust Indenture Act, notice of such Default; provided, however, that, in the case of a Default other than a Default in any payment on the Notes, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee or a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding such notice is in the interests of Holders of Notes; provided further that, in the case of any Default or breach of the character specified in Section 5.1(4) with respect to the Notes, no such notice to Holders shall be given until at least thirty (30) days after the occurrence thereof.

Section 6.3. Rights of Trustee. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.1 and Sections 313, 315 and 317 of the Trust Indenture Act:

The Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.
Any request or direction of the Company mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request or Company Order (other than delivery of any Note, to the Trustee for authentication and delivery pursuant to Section 3.3, which shall be sufficiently evidenced as provided therein) and any resolution of the Board of Directors may be sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution.
Whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of negligence or willful misconduct on its part, rely upon an Officers' Certificate.
The Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection and the written advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon.
The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.
The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request,

direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note or other paper or document, unless requested in writing to do so by the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company and the Guarantor, personally or by agent or attorney.

The Trustee may act through agents or attorneys and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent or attorney appointed with reasonable care by it hereunder.

Section 6.4. Trustee May Hold Notes. The Trustee, any Paying Agent, any Registrar or any other agent of the Company, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and, subject to Sections 310(b) and 311 of the Trust Indenture Act, may otherwise deal with the Company, an Affiliate or Subsidiary with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Paying Agent, Registrar or such other agent.

Section 6.5. Money Held in Trust. Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed in writing with the Company.

Section 6.6. Trustee's Disclaimer. The recitals contained herein and in the Notes, except the Trustee's certificate of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the Company's use of the proceeds from the Notes or for monies paid over to the Company pursuant to the Indenture. The Trustee shall be charged with no knowledge of or duties under the Plan.

Section 6.7. Reports by Trustee to the Holders. Within sixty (60) days after each May 15 of each year commencing with the first May 15 after the first issuance of Notes pursuant to this Indenture, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Holders of Notes as provided in Section 313(c) of the Trust Indenture Act a brief report dated as of such May 15 if required by Section 313(a) of the Trust Indenture Act. The Trustee also shall comply with Section 313(b) and (d) of the Trust Indenture Act; provided that with respect to the Trustee's obligation to file any report with a stock exchange, the Company will have provided prompt written notice to the Trustee that any such Notes are listed on a stock exchange within a reasonable period of time prior to the issuance of any such reports by the Trustee and at all other times the Company will reasonably promptly notify the Trustee when any Notes are listed on any stock exchange.

Section 6.8. Securityholder 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 of the Notes. Every Holder of Notes, by receiving and holding the same, agrees with the Company and the Trustee that neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any agent of either of them shall be held accountable by reason of any disclosure of information as to names and addresses of Holders made pursuant to Section 312(a) of the Trust Indenture Act. If the Trustee

is not the Registrar, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee semiannually on or before the last day of June and December in each year, 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, containing all the information in the possession of the Registrar, the Company or any of its Paying Agents other than the Trustee as to the names and addresses of the Holders of Notes.

Section 6.9. Compensation and Indemnity.

The Company covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee from time to time, and the Trustee shall be entitled to, such compensation as shall be agreed to in writing between the Company and the Trustee for all services rendered by it hereunder. The Trustee's compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Company shall pay or reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs or expenses or other charges, fees, fines or advances incurred or made by it in connection with the performance of its duties under this Indenture, except any such expense as may be attributable to its negligence or willful misconduct. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses of the Trustee's agents and counsel.
The Company and each Guarantor shall indemnify the Trustee (including in its individual capacity, and its officers, agents, directors and employees) for, and hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred by it without negligence or willful misconduct on its part arising out of or in connection with its acceptance or administration of the trust or trusts hereunder. The Trustee shall notify the Company reasonably promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity; provided that any failure to provide such notice shall not affect the Trustee's right to indemnification hereunder. The Company or the Guarantors shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall reasonably cooperate in the defense (it being understood that the Company will promptly upon request by the Trustee reimburse the Trustee for any out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred by the Trustee in connection with such claim). The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company or any Guarantors shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. Neither the Company nor any Guarantors need pay for any settlement made without its consent.
The Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss or liability incurred by the Trustee through negligence or willful misconduct.
To secure the payment obligations of the Company and the Guarantors pursuant to this Section 6.9, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Notes of any series on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except such money or property held in trust to pay principal, premium, if any, and interest on particular Notes.
When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an Event of Default specified in Section 5.1(5)or Section 5.1(6), the expenses (including the reasonable charges and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable Bankruptcy Law.
The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Indenture.

Section 6.10. Replacement of Trustee.

The resignation or removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee's acceptance of appointment as provided in Section 6.11.
The Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the Notes of any series by giving written notice thereof to the Company. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 6.11 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within thirty (30) days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Notes of such series.
The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Company and may appoint a successor Trustee with the Company's consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that no such consent on the part of the Company shall be required if an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing.
If at any time:
1. the Trustee fails to comply with Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note for at least six months;
2. the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 310(a) of the Trust Indenture Act and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder of a Note who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note for at least six months; or
3. the Trustee becomes incapable of acting, is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or a Custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,
then, in any such case, (i) the Company by or pursuant to a Board Resolution may remove the Trustee with respect to all Notes, or (ii) subject to Section 315(e) of the Trust Indenture Act, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note for at least six months may, on behalf of itself and all other similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all Notes and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees.
If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, with respect to the Notes, the Company, by or pursuant to Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee with respect to the Notes (it being understood that at any time there shall only be one Trustee with respect to the Notes) and shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the Notes has not been appointed by the Company and accepted such appointment, then a successor Trustee

shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Notes and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee with respect to the Notes appointed by the Company. If no successor Trustee of such series shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 6.11, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note for at least six months may, on behalf of itself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Notes.

Section 6.11. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.

In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee, every such successor Trustee shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment. Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee, without further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request of the Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder.
In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee, the Company, the retiring Trustee and such successor Trustee shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein such successor Trustee shall accept such appointment and which shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, such successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee and upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on request of the Company or any successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder.
Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, as the case may be.
No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under Section 310 of the Trust Indenture Act.
The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee and each appointment of a successor Trustee in the manner provided for notices to the

Holders of Notes in Section 1.6. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee and the address of its Corporate Trust office.

Section 6.12. Disqualification; Eligibility.

If the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within the meaning of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provision of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act and this Indenture.
There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be eligible pursuant to Section 310 of the Trust Indenture Act to act as Trustee and shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $100,000,000. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or the requirements of Federal, State, Territorial or District of Columbia supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article 6.

Section 6.13. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article 6, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Notes shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Notes so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Notes.

Section 6.14. Appointment of Authenticating Agent. The Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to one or more series of Notes which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Notes of such series issued upon original issue and upon exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof, and Notes so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an instrument in writing signed by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, a copy of which instrument shall be promptly furnished to the Company. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Notes by the Trustee or the 'Trustee's certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Company and shall at all times be a bank or trust company or corporation organized and doing business and in good standing under the laws of the United States of America or of any State or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as

Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less that $100,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by Federal, State, Territorial or District of Columbia authorities. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. In case at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section.

Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent, provided such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.

An Authenticating Agent for any series of Notes may at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to the Trustee for such series and to the Company. The Trustee of any series of Notes may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of termination to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be qualified and eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee for such series may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall give notice of such appointment to all Holders of Notes of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve in the manner set forth in Section 1.6. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent herein. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section.

The Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation including reimbursement of its reasonable expenses for its services under this Section.

If an appointment with respect to one or more series is made pursuant to this Section, the Notes of such series may have endorsed thereon, in addition to or in lieu of the Trustee's certificate of authentication, an alternate certificate of authentication substantially in the following form:

This is one of the Notes of a series issued under the within-mentioned Indenture.

Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors will be obligated, jointly and severally, to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder are unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor or surety, including but not limited to: (A) any right to require any of the Trustee, the Holders or the Company (each a "Benefited Party"), as a condition of payment or performance by a Guarantor, to (1) proceed against such Guarantor, the Company or any other Person, (2) proceed against or exhaust any security held from such Guarantor, the Company or any other Person or (3) proceed against or have to resort to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Benefited Party in favor of the Guarantor, the Company or any other Person, and (B) any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of the obligations under this Note Guarantee or any agreement or instrument relating hereto. Each Guarantor hereby waives the benefits of diligence, presentment, demand for payment and filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company and any right to require a proceeding first against the Company or any other Person, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever, and covenants that this Note Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture.
If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, any Guarantor or any Custodian acting in relation to either the Company or such Guarantor, any amount paid by either to the Trustee or such Holder, or any such amount paid is rescinded or reduced in amount, this Note Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, will continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, and be in full force and effect all as though such amount had not been paid.
Each Guarantor agrees that it will not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment and performance in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between such Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (1) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 5 hereof for the purposes of this Note Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (2) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 5 hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) will forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantor for the purpose of this Note Guarantee.

Each Guarantor hereby agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee or the Holders in enforcing their respective rights under the Note Guarantee.
The Note Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Company for liquidation or reorganization, should the Company become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a Custodian be appointed for all or any significant part of the Company's assets.

Each Guarantor and, by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Note Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to the Note Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor under its Note Guarantee and this Article 11 shall be limited to the greater of (i) the amount of any value received by such Guarantor and (ii) the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Note Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

Section 11.3. Execution and Delivery of a Note Guarantee. To evidence the Note Guarantee, each Guarantor hereby agrees that a notation of such Note Guarantee substantially in the form attached as Exhibit E hereto will be endorsed by an Officer of the Guarantor on each Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and that this Indenture will be executed on behalf of the Guarantor by one of its Officers.

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that the Note Guarantee will remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Note Guarantee.

If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture or on the Note Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note on which a Note Guarantee is endorsed, the Note Guarantee will be valid nevertheless.

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

Section 11.4. Guarantor May Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms.

Except as otherwise provided in this Section 11.4, a Guarantor may not sell, convey, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property or assets to, or consolidate with or merge with or into another Person, other than the Company, unless:
1. immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists or shall be caused by such transaction; and

either:
1. the applicable Guarantor is the surviving Person; or
2. the Person acquiring the property or assets in any such sale, conveyance, transfer or disposition or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger unconditionally assumes all the obligations of the Guarantor pursuant to a supplemental indenture executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, under the Notes, this Indenture and the Note Guarantee on the terms set forth herein or therein.

In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or disposition and upon the assumption by the successor Person, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the Note Guarantee endorsed upon the Notes and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be performed by such Guarantor, such successor Person will succeed to and be substituted for such Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named herein as the Guarantor; provided, however, that no such sale, conveyance, transfer or disposition shall have the effect of releasing the Person named as the "Guarantor" of this Indenture or any successor Person which shall theretofore have become such in the manner prescribed in this Article 11 from its liability as obligor on the Note Guarantee. Such successor Person thereupon may cause to be signed any or all of the Note Guarantees to be endorsed upon all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee. All the Note Guarantees so issued will in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Note Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Note Guarantees had been issued at the date of the execution hereof.

Nothing contained in this Indenture or in any of the Notes will prevent any consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into the Company, or will prevent any sale, conveyance, transfer or disposition of the property of the Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the Company.

Section 11.5. Subrogation of Noteholders and Guarantors. Until all the Notes are paid in full, no Guarantor shall exercise any rights that it may acquire by way of subrogation under this Article 11 by any payment made hereunder or otherwise, including the right to ask, demand, xxx for, take or receive from the Company such subrogation rights. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights in violation of the preceding sentence, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Trustee and the Noteholders and shall forthwith be paid to the Trustee to be credited and applied upon such Notes, in accordance with the terms hereof.

Section 11.6. Additional Guarantors. If the Company, after the date of this Indenture, acquires or forms any Subsidiary under the laws of the United States or any state or political subdivision thereof or the District of Columbia the Company shall cause any such Subsidiary to become a Guarantor by executing and delivering to the Trustee (a)　a supplemental indenture, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, which subjects such Subsidiary to the provisions of this

Indenture as a Guarantor and (b) an opinion of counsel to the effect that such supplemental indenture has been duly authorized and executed by such Subsidiary.

ARTICLE 12

SUBORDINATION OF MANAGEMENT NOTES

Section 12.1. Agreement to Subordinate. The Company covenants and agrees, and each Holder of Management Notes issued hereunder and under any supplemental indenture by such Holder's acceptance thereof likewise covenants and agrees, that all Management Notes shall be issued subject to the provisions of this Article　12; and each Holder of a Management Note, whether upon original issue or upon transfer or assignment thereof, accepts and agrees to be bound by such provisions.

The payment by the Company of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on all Management Notes issued hereunder and under any supplemental indenture shall, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, be subordinated and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all the 8% Notes (Series A), 8% Notes (Series B), and US Airways Notes, whether outstanding at the date of this Indenture or thereafter incurred.

No provision of this Article　12 shall prevent the occurrence of any default or Event of Default hereunder.

Section 12.2. Trustee to Effectuate Subordination. Each Holder of a Management Note by such Holder's acceptance thereof authorizes and directs the Trustee on such Holder's behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination provided in this Article　12 and appoints the Trustee such Holder's attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.

Section 12.3. Subordination May Not Be Impaired. No right of any present or future Holder of any the 8% Notes (Series A), 8% Notes (Series B), or US Airways Notes to enforce subordination as herein provided shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company, as the case may be, or by any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any such holder, or by any noncompliance by the Company, as the case may be, with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof that any such holder may have or otherwise be charged with.

This Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but such counterparts shall together constitute but one instrument.

The Company shall pay principal, premium, if any, and interest at the office or agency maintained by the Company for such purpose under the Indenture, in money (except as provided in paragraph 1 above) of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts ("U.S. Legal Tender"). However, the Company may pay interest by its check payable in such U.S. Legal Tender. The Company may deliver any such interest payment to the Paying Agent (and in case the Trustee shall then be acting as Paying Agent, the Company shall deposit the aggregate amount of such interest payment with the Trustee no later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such scheduled payment date, in immediately available funds and designated for and sufficient to pay all interest on the Notes then due) or to a Holder at the Holder's registered address set forth in the Register.
