(2) Assumption of the Obligations. The New Issuer hereby agrees, as of the date hereof, to assume, to be bound by and to be liable, as a primary obligor and not as a guarantor or surety, with respect to, any and all Obligations under the Indenture and the Notes on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture and all other obligations of the Original Co- Issuer under the Indenture and the Notes as if it were the Original Co-Issuer thereunder (so that from and after the date hereof, the provisions of the Indenture and the Notes referring to the Original Co-Issuer (referred to as the “Company” in the Indenture) shall instead refer to the New Issuer).

(3) Agreement to Guarantee. Each Guaranteeing Subsidiary acknowledges that it has received and reviewed a copy of the Indenture and all other documents it deems necessary to review in order to enter into this Supplemental Indenture and (i) hereby joins and becomes a party to the Indenture as indicated by its signature below as a Guarantor and (ii) acknowledges and agrees to (x) be bound by the Indenture as a Guarantor and (y) perform all obligations and duties required of a Guarantor pursuant to the Indenture.

Each Holder by accepting Notes waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes.
