(5) any Person that is not a Restricted Subsidiary on the Calculation Date will be deemed not to have been a Restricted Subsidiary at any time during such four-quarter period;

Section 4.08. Covenant Suspension.

During any period of time that (i) the GO Zone Bonds are rated Investment Grade and (ii) no Default or Event of Default under this Supplemental Indenture shall have occurred and be continuing, upon written notice from the Company to the Trustee that the conditions set forth in (i) and (ii) above are satisfied, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall no longer be subject to the following sections:

clause (4) of Section 5.01(a) (collectively, the “Affected Covenants”).

In the event that the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to the Affected Covenants for any period of time as a result of the preceding sentence and, subsequently, the GO Zone Bonds are not rated Investment Grade, then the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries will thereafter be subject to the Affected Covenants and compliance with respect to Restricted Payments made after the time of a rating withdrawal or downgrade will be calculated in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.09 as if such covenant had been in effect since the date of execution of this Supplemental Indenture.

(4) make any Restricted Investment in an Unrestricted Subsidiary

(all such payments and other actions set forth in these clauses (1) through (4) above being collectively referred to as “Restricted Payments”), unless, at the time of and after giving effect to such Restricted Payment:

(i) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur as a consequence of such Restricted Payment; and

(ii) the Company would, at the time of such Restricted Payment and after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Restricted Payment had been made at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, have been permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in the first paragraph of Section 4.11; and

(iii) such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all other Restricted Payments made by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries since the date of this Supplemental Indenture (excluding Restricted Payments permitted by clauses (2), (3), (4), (6), (7), (8), (9), (10), (11), (12) and (13) of Section 4.09(b)), is less than the sum, without duplication, of:

(a) 50% of the Consolidated Net Income of the Company for the period (taken as one accounting period) from October 1, 2003 to the end of the Company’s most recently ended fiscal quarter for which financial statements are available in accordance with Section 4.21 at the time of such Restricted Payment (or, if such Consolidated Net Income for such period is a deficit, less 100% of such deficit); plus

(b) 100% of the aggregate proceeds (including the Fair Market Value of any non-cash consideration) received by the Company since October 1, 2003 as a contribution to its common equity capital or by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries from the issue or sale of Equity Interests of the Company (other than Disqualified Stock) or from the issue or sale of convertible or exchangeable Disqualified Stock or convertible or exchangeable debt securities of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that have been converted into or exchanged for such Equity Interests (other than Equity Interests (or Disqualified Stock or debt securities) sold to a Subsidiary of the Company), plus

(c) to the extent that any Restricted Investment that was made after October 1, 2003 is sold for cash or otherwise liquidated, repaid for cash or otherwise reduced, including by way of dividend, on or before January 13, 2006 (or in the case of any Restricted Investment in any Unrestricted Subsidiary so designated after January 13, 2006, so sold, liquidated, repaid or otherwise reduced on or after January 13, 2006), the lesser of (i) the cash return of capital with respect to such Restricted Investment (less the cost of disposition, if any) and (ii) the initial amount of such Restricted Investment, plus

-31-

(d) to the extent that any Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Company designated as such after January 13, 2006 is redesignated as a Restricted Subsidiary, the Fair Market Value of the Company’s Investment in such Subsidiary as of the date of such redesignation, plus

(e) 50% of the net reduction in Investments in Unrestricted Subsidiaries designated as such January 13, 2006 or Joint Ventures resulting from any dividends, repayment of loans or other transfer of assets received by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company after October 1, 2003 from any such Unrestricted Subsidiary or a Joint Venture, to the extent that such dividends, repayments or transfers were not otherwise included in Consolidated Net Income of the Company for such period.

(b) So long as no Default has occurred and is continuing or would be caused thereby, the preceding provisions shall not prohibit:

(1) the payment of any dividend within 60 days after the date of declaration of the dividend, if at the date of declaration the dividend payment would have complied with the provisions of this Supplemental Indenture;

(2) the making of any Restricted Payment in exchange for, or out of the net cash proceeds of the substantially concurrent issuance or sale (other than to a Subsidiary of the Company) of, Equity Interests of the Company (other than Disqualified Stock) or from the substantially concurrent contribution of common equity capital to the Company; provided that the amount of any such net cash proceeds that are utilized for any such redemption, repurchase, retirement, defeasance or other acquisition will be excluded from clause (3)(b) of the preceding paragraph;

(3) the defeasance, redemption, repurchase or other acquisition of Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor that is contractually subordinated to the Notes or to any Guarantee with the net cash proceeds from a substantially concurrent incurrence of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness;

(4) the payment of any dividend (or, in the case of any partnership or limited liability company, any similar distribution) by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company to the Company or another Restricted Subsidiary, or the purchase, redemption, or other acquisition or retirement of any Equity Interests in a Restricted Subsidiary held by the Company or another Restricted Subsidiary;

(5) the repurchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement for value of any Equity Interests of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company held by any current or former officer, director or employee of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries pursuant to any equity subscription agreement, stock option agreement, shareholders’ agreement or similar plan or agreement; provided that the aggregate price paid for all such repurchased, redeemed, acquired or retired Equity Interests may not exceed the greater of (i) 0.2% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets and (ii) $5.0 million in any twelve-month period;

-32-

(6) the repurchase of Equity Interests deemed to occur upon the exercise of stock options to the extent such Equity Interests represent a portion of the exercise price of those stock options;

(9) the repurchase of any Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor that is contractually subordinated to the Notes or to any Guarantee at a purchase price not greater than 101% of the principal amount thereof in the event of (x) a Change of Control pursuant to a provision no more favorable to the holders thereof than the provision described in Section 4.13 or (y) an Asset Sale (pursuant to a provision no more favorable to the Holders thereof than the provision described in Section 4.12); provided that in each case, prior to such repurchase the Company has made a Change of Control Offer or Asset Sale Offer, as applicable, and repurchased all Notes that were validly tendered for payment in connection with such Change of Control Offer or Asset Sale Offer;

(10) the payment of dividends on common stock of the Company at a rate not to exceed $0.20 per share per quarter (such amount to be appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock split, reverse split, stock dividend or similar transaction made after the date of execution of this Supplemental Indenture so that the aggregate amount of dividends payable after such transaction is the same as the amount payable prior to such transaction);

(11) dividends or distributions on account of the Equity Interests of a Restricted Subsidiary made to its equityholders on either a pro rata basis or on a basis more favorable to either the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company;

-33-

(13) other Restricted Payments in an aggregate amount not to exceed the greater of (i) 5.0% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets and (ii) $100.0 million outstanding at any time.

(c) The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) will be the Fair Market Value on the date of the Restricted Payment of the asset(s) or securities proposed to be transferred or issued by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment. The Fair Market Value of any assets or securities of $50.0 million or greater that are required to be valued by this covenant will be determined by the Board of Directors whose resolution with respect thereto will be delivered to the Trustee.

(d) For purposes of this section, “substantially concurrent” shall be deemed to mean within at least 45 days.

Section 4.10. Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Subsidiaries.

(a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to:

(2) make loans or advances to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; or

(3) transfer any of its properties or assets to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries.

-34-

(1) agreements governing Existing Indebtedness and Credit Facilities as in effect on the date of this Supplemental Indenture and any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of those agreements; provided that the amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions than those contained in those agreements on the date of this Supplemental Indenture;

(2) this Supplemental Indenture, the Notes and the related Guarantees;

(3) applicable law, rule, regulation or order;

(4) any agreement or instrument governing Indebtedness or Capital Stock of a Person as in effect at the time of the acquisition by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of such Person or the properties or assets of such Person (except to the extent such Indebtedness or Capital Stock was incurred in connection with or in contemplation of such acquisition), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired; provided that, in the case of Indebtedness, such Indebtedness was permitted by the terms of this Supplemental Indenture to be incurred;

(5) customary non-assignment provisions in contracts and leases entered into in the ordinary course of business;

(6) construction loans and purchase money obligations for property acquired in the ordinary course of business and Capital Lease Obligations that impose restrictions on the property constructed, purchased or leased of the nature described in Section 4.11(b)(4);

(7) any agreement for the sale or other disposition of a Restricted Subsidiary that restricts distributions by that Restricted Subsidiary pending the sale or other disposition;

(8) Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; provided that the restrictions contained in the agreements governing such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in the agreements governing the Indebtedness being refinanced;

-35-

(9) Liens securing Indebtedness otherwise permitted to be incurred under the provisions of Section 4.15 that limit the right of the debtor to dispose of the assets subject to such Liens;

(12) any agreement or instrument governing Indebtedness permitted to be incurred under this Supplemental Indenture, provided that the terms and conditions of any such restrictions and encumbrances, taken as a whole, are not materially more restrictive than those contained in this Supplemental Indenture, taken as a whole; and

(13) restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by customers under contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business.

(c) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.10, in the event that a restriction meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of permitted restrictions described in clauses (1) through (13) above, the Company will be permitted to classify such restriction on the date of its incurrence, or later reclassify all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness, in any manner that complies with this Section 4.10.

Section 4.11. Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock.

(a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), and the Company will not issue any Disqualified Stock and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to issue any shares of preferred stock; provided, however, that the Company may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue Disqualified Stock and the Restricted Subsidiaries may incur Indebtedness or issue preferred stock, if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Company’s most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which financial statements are available in accordance with Section 4.21 would have been at least 2.0 to 1, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom and, in the case of Acquired Debt, giving pro forma effect to the applicable transaction related thereto), as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred (and such transaction had occurred) or the preferred stock or Disqualified Stock had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such four-quarter period.

-36-

(b) Section 4.11(a) will not prohibit the incurrence of any of the following items of Indebtedness (collectively, “Permitted Debt”):

(1) the incurrence by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness and letters of credit under one or more Credit Facilities in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding under this clause (1) (with letters of credit being deemed to have a principal amount equal to the maximum potential liability of the Company and its Subsidiaries thereunder) not to exceed the greater of (i) 30.0% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets or (ii) $600.0 million;

(2) the incurrence by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries of the Existing Indebtedness;

(3) the incurrence by the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors of Indebtedness represented by the Notes and the related Guarantees to be issued pursuant to this Supplemental Indenture;

(4) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness represented by Capital Lease Obligations, mortgage financings or purchase money obligations, in each case, incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or cost of design, construction, installation or improvement of property, plant or equipment used or usable in a Permitted Business, in an aggregate principal amount, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to refund, refinance or replace any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (4), not to exceed the greater of (i) 1.0% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets and (ii) $20.0 million at any time outstanding;

(5) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in exchange for, or the net proceeds of which are used to extend, refund, refinance, renew, defease or replace Indebtedness (other than intercompany Indebtedness) that was permitted by this Supplemental Indenture to be incurred under Section 4.11(a) or clause (2), (3), (4), (5), (16) or (17) of this Section 4.11(b);

-37-

(6) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of intercompany Indebtedness between or among the Company and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that:

(A) if the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor is the obligor on such Indebtedness and the payee is not the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor, such Indebtedness must be expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all Obligations then due with respect to the Notes, in the case of the Company, or the Guarantee, in the case of a Subsidiary Guarantor; and

(B)(i) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such Indebtedness being held by a Person other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company and (ii) any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person that is not either the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company will be deemed, in each case, to constitute an incurrence of such Indebtedness by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not permitted by this clause (6);

(7) the issuance by any of the Company’s Restricted Subsidiaries to the Company or to any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of shares of preferred stock; provided, however, that:

(A) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such preferred stock being held by a Person other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company; and

(B) any sale or other transfer of any such preferred stock to a Person that is not either the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company;

will be deemed, in each case, to constitute an issuance of such preferred stock by such Restricted Subsidiary that was not permitted by this clause (7);

(8) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Hedging Obligations in the ordinary course of business and not for speculative purposes;

(9) the guarantee by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company that was permitted to be incurred by another provision of this Section 4.11; provided that if the Indebtedness being guaranteed is subordinated to or pari passu with the Notes, then the guarantee shall be subordinated to the same extent as the Indebtedness guaranteed;

(10) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness in respect of workers’ compensation claims; self-insurance or similar obligations; the financing of insurance premiums; bankers’ acceptances; performance, appeal, bid completion, guarantee and surety bonds; or similar requirements (and, in all cases, letters of credit in respect thereof) in the ordinary course of business;

-38-

(11) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness arising from the honoring by a bank or other financial institution of a check, draft or similar instrument inadvertently drawn against insufficient funds, so long as such Indebtedness is covered within five Business Days;

(12) the incurrence by Foreign Subsidiaries of Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding pursuant to this clause (12), including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to refund, refinance, defease, renew, extend or replace Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (12), not to exceed the greater of (i) 5.0% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets and (ii) $100.0 million;

(13) the incurrence by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness arising from agreements of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary providing for indemnification, adjustment of purchase price or similar obligations, in each case, incurred in connection with the disposition of any business, assets or subsidiary, other than guarantees of Indebtedness incurred by any Person acquiring all or any portion of such business, assets or subsidiary for the purpose of financing such acquisition; provided that the maximum aggregate liability in respect of all such Indebtedness shall at no time exceed the gross proceeds actually received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary in connection with such disposition;

(14) the incurrence by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness consisting of take-or-pay obligations contained in supply agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business;

(15) the incurrence by the Company of Indebtedness to any of its Subsidiaries incurred in connection with the purchase of accounts receivable and related assets by the Company from any such Subsidiary which assets are subsequently conveyed by the Company in connection with a Receivable Facility; and

(16) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of additional Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) at any time outstanding, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to extend, refund, refinance, renew, defease or replace any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (16), and the issuance by the Company of any Disqualified Stock and by any Restricted Subsidiary of any additional preferred stock, not to exceed the greater of (i) 5.0% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets and (ii) $100.0 million; and

(17) the incurrence or issuance, as the case may be, by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of Acquired Debt, Acquired Preferred Stock or Acquired Disqualified Stock; provided that immediately after giving effect to such incurrence or issuance, as the case may be, (i) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Company’s most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which financial statements are available in accordance with Section 1.13 preceding the date of such incurrence or issuance, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom) as if such Acquired Debt, Acquired Preferred Stock or Acquired Disqualified Stock had been incurred or issued at the beginning of such four-quarter period, would be (x) at least 2.0 to 1 or (y) equal to or greater than it would have been immediately preceding such incurrence or (ii) the Consolidated Net Worth of the Company would be greater than the Consolidated Net Worth of the Company immediately prior to such transaction.

-39-

(c) The Company shall not incur, and shall not permit any Subsidiary Guarantor to incur, any Indebtedness (including Permitted Debt) that is contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Pari Passu Indebtedness of the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor unless such Indebtedness is also contractually subordinated in right of payment to the Notes and the applicable Guarantee on substantially identical terms; provided, however, that no Indebtedness will be deemed to be contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Company solely by virtue of being unsecured or by virtue of being secured on a first or junior Lien basis.

(d) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.11, in the event that an item of proposed Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (17) of Section 4.11(b), or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.11(a), the Company will be permitted to classify such item of Indebtedness on the date of its incurrence, or later reclassify all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness, in any manner that complies with this Section 4.11. Indebtedness under Credit Facilities outstanding on the date on which Notes are first issued and authenticated under this Supplemental Indenture will initially be deemed to have been incurred on such date in reliance on the exception provided by clause (1) of the definition of Permitted Debt. The accrual of interest, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, and the payment of dividends on Disqualified Stock in the form of additional shares of the same class of Disqualified Stock will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness or an issuance of Disqualified Stock for purposes of this Section 4.11; provided, in each such case, that the amount thereof is included in Fixed Charges of the Company as accrued. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.11, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may incur pursuant to this Section 4.11 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates or currency values.

-40-

Section 4.12. Asset Sales.

(a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless:

(1) the Company or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at the time of the Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value (as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors and evidenced by a resolution of the Board of Directors set forth in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee as to Asset Sales having a Fair Market Value of $50.0 million or greater) of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of; and

(2) at least 75% of the consideration received in the Asset Sale by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents, publicly traded equity securities of a Person with a market capitalization (not held by Affiliates of such Person) of at least $500 million or a controlling interest in, or long-term assets used or useful in, a business engaged in a Permitted Business. For purposes of this provision, each of the following will also be deemed to be cash:

(A) any liabilities, as shown on its most recent balance sheet, of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Guarantee) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to a customary novation agreement that releases the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from further liability;

(B) any securities, notes or other obligations received by the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are promptly, subject to ordinary settlement periods, converted or monetized by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash, to the extent of the cash received in that conversion or monetization; and

(b) Within 360 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, the Company or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, may apply those Net Proceeds, at its option, to any one or more of the following:

(1) to repay Indebtedness and other Obligations of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries;

-41-

(2) to acquire all or substantially all of the assets of, or any Capital Stock of, any Person or division conducting a Permitted Business, if, in the case of any such acquisition of Capital Stock and after giving effect thereto, such Person will be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company (or enter into a binding commitment for any such acquisition); provided that such binding commitment shall be treated as a permitted application of Net Proceeds from the date of such commitment until and only until the earlier of (x) the date on which such acquisition is consummated and (y) the 180th day following the expiration of the aforementioned 360-day period. If the acquisition or expenditure contemplated by such binding commitment is not consummated on or before such 180th day and the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary shall not have applied such Net Proceeds pursuant to clause (1), (3) or (4) of this Section 4.12(b) on or before such 180th day, such commitment shall be deemed not to have been a permitted application of Net Proceeds;

(3) to make a capital expenditure; or

(4) to acquire other assets that are not classified as current assets under GAAP and that are used or useful in a Permitted Business;

provided, however, that to the extent that the Asset Sale consists, directly or indirectly, of Domestic Assets, in order to qualify under any of the foregoing clauses (1) through (4) of this Section 4.12(b), the Company must apply such proceeds to acquire additional Domestic Assets, acquire assets located in the United States or a Person described in Section 4.12(b)(2) which will become a Domestic Subsidiary at the time it becomes a Restricted Subsidiary pursuant thereto, make domestic capital expenditures or repay Indebtedness that is an obligation of the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor.

(c) Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds, the Company may temporarily reduce revolving credit borrowings or otherwise invest the Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Supplemental Indenture. Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in Section 4.12(b) will constitute “Excess Proceeds.” On the 361st day after the Asset Sale (or, at the Company’s option, any earlier date), if the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $25.0 million, the Company will make an Asset Sale Offer to all Holders of the GO Zone Bonds and to all holders of other Pari Passu Indebtedness (collectively, an “Asset Sale Offer”) in respect of which an offer to purchase is also required to purchase the maximum principal amount of GO Zone Bonds and such other Pari Passu Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase, and will be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Supplemental Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of GO Zone Bonds and other Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered into such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee will select the GO Zone Bonds and such other Pari Passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero.

-42-

(d) To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control or Asset Sale provisions of this Supplemental Indenture, the Company shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and the Company will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control or Asset Sale provisions of this Supplemental Indenture by virtue of such conflict.

(e) Notwithstanding the provisions described in Sections 4.12(a), (b), (c) and (d) (other than the proviso to Section 4.12(b)), the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries may consummate an Asset Sale without complying with such provisions if (i) at least 80% of the consideration for such Asset Sale is in the form of assets used or useful in a Permitted Business and (ii) such Asset Sale is for at least Fair Market Value.

Section 4.13. Change of Control. In the event of a Change of Control, the Company shall promptly provide written notice to the Trustee. Additionally, in respect of a Change of Control, the GO Zone Indenture shall provide as follows (capitalized terms used herein have the meanings set forth in the GO Zone Indenture):

“(a) If a Change of Control occurs, each Bondholder shall have the right to require the Borrower, who may designate a third party for this purpose (in either case, the “Borrower Designee”), to repurchase all or any part (which shall be in an amount equal to an Authorized Denomination) of that Bondholder’s Bonds pursuant to an offer (the “Change of Control Offer”) on the terms set forth in this Indenture. In the Change of Control Offer, the Borrower Designee will offer a payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Bonds repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Bonds repurchased, to the date of purchase, subject to the rights of Bondholders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date (such payment, a “Change of Control Payment”). Within thirty (30) days following any Change of Control, at the direction of the Borrower Designee which shall be provided five (5) days prior to the mailing of the notice, the Trustee will mail a notice to each Bondholder describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control and offering to repurchase Bonds on the date specified in the notice (such date, the “Change of Control Payment Date”), which date will be no earlier than thirty (30) days and no later than sixty (60) days from the date such notice is mailed, pursuant to the procedures required by this Indenture and described in such notice.

-43-

(b) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Borrower Designee shall, to the extent lawful:

(i) accept for payment all Bonds or portions of Bonds properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

(ii) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Bonds or portions of Bonds properly tendered; and

(iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Bonds properly accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Bonds or portions of Bonds being purchased by the Borrower Designee.

(c) The Paying Agent shall promptly pay to each Bondholder of Bonds properly tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Bonds, and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Bondholder a new Bond equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Bonds surrendered, if any; provided that each new Bond will be in a principal amount equal to an Authorized Denomination.

(d) Section (a) and Section (b) will be applicable whether or not any other provisions of this Indenture are applicable to the transaction.

(e) The Borrower Designee shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if (1) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Borrower Designee and purchases all Bonds properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer, or (2) notice of redemption has been given pursuant to this Indenture as described in Section 3.4(f) unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable Redemption Price.”

-44-

Section 4.14. Transactions with Affiliates.

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

(1) the Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that might reasonably have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person; and

(2) the Company delivers to the Trustee:

(A) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $10.0 million, a resolution of the Board of Directors set forth in an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with this covenant and such Affiliate Transaction been approved by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors; and

(B) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $50.0 million, (i) a Board Resolution certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (1) above and that such Affiliate Transaction has been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors, if any, or if there are no such disinterested members, then (ii)(x) an opinion as to the fairness to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary of such Affiliate Transaction from a financial point of view issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing or (y) with respect to assets classified, in accordance with GAAP, as property, plant or equipment, a written appraisal from a nationally recognized appraiser showing the assets have a Fair Market Value of not less than the consideration paid (provided that if the Fair Market Value determined by such appraiser is a range of values or otherwise inexact, the Board of Directors shall determine the exact Fair Market Value within such range).

(b) The following items will not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of Section 4.14(a):

(1) any fees, compensation and other payments paid to any officer or employee pursuant to any employment agreement, employee or director benefit plan, officer and director indemnification agreement or any similar arrangement entered into by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business;

-45-

(2) transactions between or among the Company and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries;

(3) transactions with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Company) that is an Affiliate of the Company solely because the Company owns, directly or through a Restricted Subsidiary, an Equity Interest in, or controls, such Person;

(4) payment of reasonable directors’ fees to Persons who are not otherwise Affiliates of the Company;

(5) any issuance of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Company to Affiliates of the Company;

(6) Restricted Payments that do not violate the provisions of Section 4.09;

(7) loans or advances to employees in the ordinary course of business not to exceed $10.0 million in the aggregate at any one time outstanding;

(8) sales (including a sale in exchange for a promissory note of or Equity Interest in such Accounts Receivable Subsidiary) of accounts receivable, related assets and the provision of billing, collection and other services in connection therewith, in each case, to an Accounts Receivable Subsidiary in connection with any Receivables Facility;

(9) transactions pursuant to any contract or agreement in effect on the Issue Date, as the same may be amended, modified, extended or replaced from time to time, so long as any such contract or agreement as so amended, modified, extended or replaced is, taken as a whole, not materially less favorable to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries than under those agreements in effect on the Issue Date;

(10) any transaction or series of transactions between the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary and any of their Joint Ventures or any Unrestricted Subsidiary, provided that (a) such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (1) of the initial paragraph above, and (b) with respect to any such Affiliate Transaction involving aggregate consideration in excess of the greater of (i) 0.5% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets and (ii) $10.0 million, such Affiliate Transaction has been approved by the Board of Directors;

(11) transactions between the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries and any Person who becomes an Unrestricted Subsidiary or Joint Venture pursuant to agreements entered into before, and not in contemplation of, the consummation of any such transaction;

-46-

(12) Permitted Investments;

(13) transactions entered into by a Person prior to the time such Person becomes a Subsidiary or is merged or consolidated into the Company or a Subsidiary (provided such transaction is not entered into in contemplation of such event); and

(14) transactions with any customer, client, supplier, distributor or any other purchaser or seller of goods or services (including, without limitation, with any Unrestricted Subsidiary), in each case in the ordinary course of business and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Supplemental Indenture, which when taken together with other transactions with the same Person are, in the reasonable determination of the Board of Directors or senior management of the Company, fair to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries or on terms not less favorable than might have been obtained in a comparable transaction at such time on an arm’s length basis from a person who is not an Affiliate.

Section 4.15. Liens.

The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien, except Permitted Liens, to secure Indebtedness of any kind on any asset now owned or hereafter acquired, unless all payments due under this Supplemental Indenture and the Notes are secured on an equal and ratable basis with the obligations so secured (or, if such obligations are subordinated by their terms to the Notes or the related Guarantees, prior to the obligations so secured) until such time as such obligations are no longer secured by a Lien.

Section 4.16. Additional Guarantees.

If, after the date of this Supplemental Indenture, any Domestic Subsidiary of the Company that is not already a Subsidiary Guarantor (including, without limitation, any Domestic Subsidiary acquired or created after the date of this Supplemental Indenture) guarantees any other Indebtedness in excess of $5 million of either of the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor, then in either case that Subsidiary will become a Subsidiary Guarantor by executing a supplemental indenture and delivering it to the Trustee within 15 Business Days of the date on which it guaranteed or incurred such Indebtedness, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the preceding, any guarantee of a Domestic Subsidiary that was incurred pursuant to this Section 4.16 as a result of a guarantee of any other Indebtedness in excess of $5 million shall provide by its terms that it shall be automatically and unconditionally released upon the release or discharge of the guarantee that resulted in the creation of such Domestic Subsidiary’s Guarantee, except a discharge or release by, or as a result of payment under, such Guarantee.

-47-

Section 4.17. Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

The Board of Directors may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default. If a Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments owned by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary designated as Unrestricted will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and, to the extent not otherwise permitted by Section 4.09(b) or under one or more clauses of the definition of Permitted Investments, as determined by the Company, will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under Section 4.09. That designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. The Board of Directors may redesignate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if that redesignation would not cause a Default. If a Restricted Subsidiary that is a Subsidiary Guarantor is designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of this covenant, such Guarantee will be released.

Section 4.18. Sale and Leaseback Transactions.

The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, enter into any sale and leaseback transaction; provided that the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may enter into a sale and leaseback transaction if:

(1) the Company or that Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, could have (a) incurred Indebtedness in an amount equal to the Attributable Debt relating to such sale and leaseback transaction under the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test in Section 4.11(a) and (b) incurred a Lien to secure such Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.15;

(2) the gross cash proceeds of that sale and leaseback transaction are at least equal to the Fair Market Value, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors and set forth in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee, of the property that is the subject of that sale and leaseback transaction; and

(3) the transfer of assets in that sale and leaseback transaction is permitted by, and the Company applies the proceeds of such transaction in compliance with, Section 4.12.

Section 4.19. Accounts Receivable Facilities.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Indenture relating to the Notes, the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may sell (including a sale in exchange for a promissory note of or Equity Interest in such Accounts Receivable Subsidiary) at any time and from time to time, accounts receivable and related assets to any Accounts Receivable Subsidiary; provided that the aggregate consideration received in each such sale is at least equal to the aggregate Fair Market Value of the receivables sold.

-48-

Section 4.20. Payments for Consent.

The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration to or for the benefit of any Holder of Notes for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Supplemental Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid or agreed to be paid to all Holders of the Notes that consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement.

Section 4.21. Other Reports

(a) The Company will file with the SEC (unless the SEC will not accept such a filing):

(1) all quarterly and annual reports required to be filed with the SEC on Forms 10-Q and 10-K; and

(2) all current reports required to be filed with the SEC on Form 8-K,

for public availability within the time periods specified in the rules and regulations applicable to such reports.

(b) If, at any time the Company is no longer subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for any reason, the Company will nevertheless continue filing the reports specified in Section 4.21(a) with the SEC within the time periods specified in Section 4.21(a) unless the SEC will not accept such a filing. The Company agrees that it will not take any action for the purpose of causing the SEC not to accept any such filings. If the SEC will not accept the Company’s filings for any reason, the Company will post the reports referred to in Section 4.21(a) on its website within the time periods that would apply if the Company were required to file those reports with the SEC.

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities”), issued and issuable in one or more series under and equally secured by an Indenture, by and among the Company, the Potential Subsidiary Guarantors (as defined therein) and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (as successor to JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association), as trustee, dated as of January 1, 2006, as supplemented by the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, by and among the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors (as defined therein) and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), dated as of December 2, 2010 (the “Indenture”), to which Indenture reference is hereby made for a description of the nature and extent of the security and the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities thereunder and of the terms and conditions upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered and secured. The acceptance of this Note shall be deemed to constitute the consent and agreement by the Holder hereof to all of the terms and provisions of the Indenture. This Note is one of the series designated above.

Except as otherwise provided in this Note and the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, the Notes of this series will not be entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund or voluntary redemption provisions.

If an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, shall occur and be continuing, the principal of this Note may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

Except as otherwise provided in this Note and the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, this Note shall not be redeemable at the option of the Company or otherwise pursuant to the requirements of the Indenture, provided however that in the event of a redemption of GO Zone Bonds under Section 3.4 of the GO Zone Indenture and as reflected in the GO Zone Bonds set forth in Exhibit A thereto, the Company will redeem Notes equal in principal amount to the GO Zone Bonds to be redeemed at a redemption price equal to the redemption price of the GO Zone Bonds to be redeemed, plus accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the Trustee to enter into one or more supplemental indentures for the purpose of adding any provisions to, or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of, the Indenture with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of all series then outstanding under the Indenture, considered as one class; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if there shall be Securities of more than one series outstanding under the Indenture and if a proposed supplemental indenture shall directly affect the rights of the Holders of Securities of one or more, but less than all, of such series, then the consent only of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of all series so directly affected, considered as one class, shall be required; and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that if the Securities of any series shall have been issued in more than one tranche and if the proposed supplemental indenture shall directly affect the rights of the Holders of Securities of one or more, but less than all, of such tranches, then the consent only of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of all tranches so directly affected, considered as one class, shall be required; and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that the Indenture permits the Trustee to enter into one or more supplemental indentures for limited purposes without the consent of any Holders of Securities. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

A-3

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein and herein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust Office of The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., in Houston, Texas or such other office or agency as may be designated by the Company from time to time, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes of this series of authorized denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

The Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may deem and treat the person in whose name this Note shall be registered upon the Security Register for the Notes of this series as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal of and interest on this Note and for all other purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Company nor the Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary; and all such payments so made to such registered owner or upon his order shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability upon this Note to the extent of the sum or sums paid.

The Trustee may conclusively presume that the obligation of the Company to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Note shall have been fully satisfied and discharged unless and until it shall have received a written notice from the GO Zone Trustee, signed by an authorized officer of the GO Zone Trustee and attested by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the GO Zone Trustee, stating that the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on this Note has not been fully paid when due and specifying the amount of funds required to make such payment.

The obligation of the Company to make any payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on this Note, whether at maturity, upon redemption (including any redemption due to the occurrence of a Determination of Taxability, as such term is defined in subsection (c) of Section 3.4 of the GO Zone Indenture and reflected in the Form of the GO Zone Bonds set forth in Exhibit A thereof) or otherwise, shall be fully or partially, as the case may be, deemed to have been paid or otherwise satisfied and discharged to the extent that at the time any such payment shall be due, the then due principal, premium, if any, or interest on the GO Zone Bonds which corresponds to such amounts under this Note shall have been fully or partially paid, deemed to have been paid or otherwise satisfied and discharged. In addition, such obligation to make any payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on this Note at any time shall be deemed to have been satisfied and discharged to the extent that the amount of the Company’s obligation to make any payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on this Note exceeds the obligation of the Company at that time to make any Payment.

A-4

No recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement contained in the Indenture or in any indenture supplemental thereto, or in any Note or coupon thereby secured, or because of any indebtedness thereby secured, shall be had against any incorporator, member, manager, stockholder, officer, director or employee, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or any predecessor or successor corporation or company, either directly or through the Company or any predecessor or successor corporation or company, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise; it being expressly agreed and understood that the Indenture, any indenture supplemental thereto and the obligations thereby secured, are solely corporate obligations of the Company, and that no personal liability whatsoever shall attach to, or be incurred by, such incorporators, members, managers, stockholders, officers, directors or employees, as such, of the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation or company, or any of them, because of the creation of the indebtedness thereby authorized, or under or by reason of any of the obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Indenture or in any indenture supplemental thereto or in any of the Notes or coupons thereby secured, or implied therefrom.

The Holder of this Note by acceptance of this Note agrees to restrictions on transfer and to waivers of certain rights of exchange as set forth herein.

[FORM OF NOTATION ON SECURITY RELATING TO GUARANTEE]

GUARANTEE

The undersigned (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”) have unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally (such guarantee by each Subsidiary Guarantor being referred to herein as the “Guarantee”), (i) the due and punctual payment of the principal of and interest on the Notes, whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, the due and punctual payment of interest on the overdue principal and interest, if any, on the Notes, to the extent lawful, and the due and punctual performance of all other obligations of the Company to the Holders or the Trustee all in accordance with, and subject to the limitations of, the terms set forth in Article Ten of the Indenture and (ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that the same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise.

The obligation of the Subsidiary Guarantors to make any payment under this Guarantee shall be fully or partially, as the case may be, deemed to have been paid or otherwise satisfied and discharged to the extent that at the time any such payment shall be due, the then due principal, premium, if any, or interest on the GO Zone Bonds which corresponds to such amounts under this Guarantee shall have been fully or partially paid, deemed to have been paid or otherwise satisfied and discharged. In addition, such obligation to make any payment on this Guarantee at any time shall be deemed to have been satisfied and discharged to the extent that the amount of the Company’s obligation to make any payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Note exceeds the obligation of the Company at that time to make any Payment.

No past, present or future stockholder, officer, director, employee or incorporator, as such, of any of the Subsidiary Guarantors shall have any liability under the Guarantee by reason of such person’s status as stockholder, officer, director, employee or incorporator. Each holder of a Note by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. This waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Guarantees.

Each holder of a Note by accepting a Note agrees that any Subsidiary Guarantor named below shall have no further liability with respect to its Guarantee if such Subsidiary Guarantor otherwise ceases to be liable in respect of its Guarantee in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.

A-8

The Guarantee shall not be valid or obligatory for any purpose until the certificate of authentication on the Notes upon which the Guarantee is noted shall have been executed by the Trustee under the Indenture by the manual signature of one of its authorized officers.
