WHEREAS, also under the Original Indenture, guarantors with respect to a series of Debt Securities may be added as parties to the Indenture by a supplemental Indenture executed by themselves, the Issuer and the Trustee;

ARTICLE III
THE NOTES
Section 3.01. Form. The Notes shall be issued initially in the form of one or more Global Securities as Series A Notes, and the Series A Notes and Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, the terms of which are incorporated in and made a part of this Supplemental Indenture, and the Issuers and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Supplemental Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. The Series A Notes constituting Transfer Restricted Securities will be resold initially only to (a) Qualified Institutional Buyers (as such term is defined in Section 144A of the Securities Act) (“QIBs”) in reliance on Rule 144A of the Securities Act (“Rule 144A”) and (b) Persons other than U.S. Persons (as defined under Regulation S under the Securities Act (“Regulation S”)) (“U.S. Persons”) in reliance on Regulation S. Thereafter, the Series A Notes may be transferred to, among others, QIBs, purchasers in reliance upon Regulation S and institutional “accredited investors” (as defined in subparagraph (a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Rule 501 of the Securities Act (“IAIs”)) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Rule 501 of the Securities Act, provided that any Series A Notes constituting Transfer Restricted Securities that are transferred to IAIs who are not QIBs shall be issued only in definitive form. Pursuant to the terms of an Exchange and Registration Rights Agreement, upon consummation of the Exchange Offer contemplated thereby, the Series A Notes constituting Transfer Restricted Securities will be exchanged by the Holders for Series B Notes to be issued by the Issuers in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof. The Series B Notes shall be issued initially in the form of one or more Global Securities, and the Series B Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto.
Section 3.02. Issuance of Additional Notes. The Issuers may, from time to time, issue an unlimited amount of additional Series A Notes (“Additional Notes”) under the Indenture, which shall be issued in the same form as the Series A Notes issued on the Issue Date and which shall have identical terms as the Series A Notes issued on the Issue Date other than with respect to the issue date, issue price and date of first payment of interest. The Series A Notes issued on the Issue Date shall be limited in aggregate principal amount to $250,000,000. The Series A Notes issued on the Issue Date and any Additional Notes subsequently issued, together with any Series B Notes issued in exchange therefor pursuant to an Exchange Offer, shall be treated as a single series for all purposes under the Indenture, including waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase. If the Issuers issue additional Series A Notes prior to the completion of an Exchange Offer, the period of the resale restrictions applicable to any Series A Notes previously offered and sold in reliance on Rule 144A will be automatically extended to the last day of the period of any resale restrictions imposed on any such additional Series A Notes.
Section 3.03. Transfer of Transfer Restricted Securities.
(a) When Notes are presented to the Registrar with the request to register the transfer of such Notes or exchange such Notes for an equal principal amount of Notes of other authorized denominations, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange in
E-8
accordance with Article II of the Original Indenture. In addition, in the case of Series A Notes that are Transfer Restricted Securities, such request to register the transfer or make the exchange shall be accompanied by the following additional information and documents, as applicable, upon which the Registrar may conclusively rely:
(1) if such Transfer Restricted Securities are being delivered to the Registrar by a Holder for registration in the name of such Holder, without transfer, a certification from such Holder to that effect in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto; or
(2) if such Transfer Restricted Securities are being transferred (i) to a QIB in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act or (ii) pursuant to an exemption from registration in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act (and based upon an opinion of counsel if the Issuers or the Trustee so requests) or (iii) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, a certification to that effect from such Holder in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto; or
(3) if such Transfer Restricted Securities are being transferred to an IAI within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act pursuant to a private placement exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act (and based upon an opinion of counsel if the Issuers or the Trustee so requests), a certification to that effect from such Holder in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto and a certification from the applicable transferee in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto; or
(4) if such Transfer Restricted Securities are being transferred to Persons other than U.S. Persons in reliance on Regulation S, a certification to that effect from such Holder in substantially the form of Exhibit E hereto; or
(5) if such Transfer Restricted Securities are being transferred in reliance on another exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act (and based upon an opinion of counsel if the Issuers or the Trustee so requests), a certification to that effect from such Holder in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto.
(b) Upon any sale or transfer of a Transfer Restricted Security (including any Transfer Restricted Security represented by a Global Security) pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or an effective registration statement under the Securities Act:
(1) in the case of any Transfer Restricted Security that is in the form of a definitive Note, the Registrar shall permit the Holder thereof to exchange such Transfer Restricted Security for a definitive Note that does not bear the legend set forth in Section 3.04(a) below and rescind any restriction on the transfer of such Transfer Restricted Security; and
(2) in the case of any Transfer Restricted Security represented by a Global Security, such Transfer Restricted Security shall not be required to bear the legend set forth in Section 3.04(a) below if all other interests in such Global Security have been or are
E-9
concurrently being sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon consummation of an Exchange Offer, the Issuers shall issue and, upon receipt of an authentication order in accordance with Section 2.05 of the Original Indenture, the Trustee shall authenticate Series B Notes in exchange for Series A Notes accepted for exchange in the Exchange Offer, which Series B Notes shall not bear the legend set forth in Section 3.04(a) below, and the Registrar shall rescind any restriction on the transfer of such Notes, in each case unless the Holder of such Series A Notes is either (A) a Person participating in the distribution of the Series A Notes or (B) a Person who is an affiliate (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act) of the Issuers. The Issuers shall identify to the Trustee such Holders of the Notes in a written certification signed by an officer of each Issuer and, absent certification from the Issuers to such effect, the Trustee shall assume that there are no such Holders.
(c) Upon any sale or transfer of a Transfer Restricted Security (including any Transfer Restricted Security represented by a Global Security) initially resold to Persons other than U.S. Persons in reliance upon Regulation S pursuant to (i) Regulation S following 40 consecutive days beginning on and including the later of the day on which such Transfer Restricted Security was offered to Persons other than “distributors” (as such term is defined in Regulation S) and the date of the closing of the original offering, or (ii) an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, the Registrar shall permit the Holder thereof to exchange such Transfer Restricted Security for a definitive Note that does not bear the legend set forth in Section 3.04(b) below and rescind any restriction on the transfer of such Transfer Restricted Security.

COVENANTS
Section 5.01. Compliance Certificate. (a) In lieu of the Officers’ Certificate required by Section 4.05 of the Original Indenture, the Issuers and Subsidiary Guarantors shall deliver to the Trustee, within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year, an Officers’ Certificate stating that a review of the activities of the Partnership and its Subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal year has been made under the supervision of the signing Officers (one of whom shall be the principal executive, financial or accounting officer of each Issuer and Subsidiary Guarantor) with a view to determining whether the Issuers have kept, observed, performed and fulfilled their obligations under the Indenture, and further stating, as to each such Officer signing such certificate, that to the best of his or her knowledge the Issuers have kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every covenant contained in the Indenture and are not in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of the Indenture (or, if a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred, describing all such Defaults or Events of Default of which he or she may have knowledge and what action the Issuers are taking or propose to take with respect thereto) and that to the best of his or her knowledge no event has occurred and remains in existence by reason of which payments on account of the principal of or interest, if any, on the Notes is prohibited or if such event has occurred, a description of the event and what action the Issuers are taking or propose to take with respect thereto.
(b) The Issuers shall, so long as any of the Notes are outstanding, deliver to the Trustee, forthwith and in any event within five days upon any Officer becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default or an event which, with notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default, an Officers’ Certificate specifying such Default or Event of Default and what action the Issuers are taking or propose to take with respect thereto.
Section 5.02. Limitations on Liens. The Issuers will not, nor will they permit any Subsidiary of the Partnership to, create, assume, incur or suffer to exist any Lien upon any Principal Property or upon any Capital Interests of any Restricted Subsidiary, whether owned or leased on the Issue Date or thereafter acquired, to secure any Debt of an Issuer or any other Person (other than Debt Securities), without in any such case making effective provision whereby all of the Notes shall
E-12
be secured equally and ratably with, or prior to, such Debt so long as such Debt shall be so secured. This restriction shall not apply to:
(a) Permitted Liens;
(b) any Lien upon any property or assets created at the time of acquisition of such property or assets by an Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary or within one year after such time to secure all or a portion of the purchase price for such property or assets or Debt incurred to finance such purchase price, whether such Debt was incurred prior to, at the time of or within one year after the date of such acquisition;
(c) any Lien upon any property or assets to secure all or part of the cost of construction, development, repair or improvements thereon or to secure Debt incurred prior to, at the time of, or within one year after completion of such construction, development, repair or improvements or the commencement of full operations thereof (whichever is later), to provide funds for any such purpose;
(d) any Lien upon any property or assets existing thereon at the time of the acquisition thereof by an Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (whether or not the obligations secured thereby are assumed by an Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary); provided, however, that such Lien only encumbers the property or assets so acquired;
(e) any Lien upon any property or assets of a Person existing thereon at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary by acquisition, merger or otherwise; provided, however, that such Lien only encumbers the property or assets of such Person at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary;
(f) any Lien upon any property or assets of an Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary in existence on December 10, 2003 or provided for pursuant to agreements existing on December 10, 2003;
(g) Liens imposed by law or order as a result of any proceeding before any court or regulatory body that is being contested in good faith, and Liens which secure a judgment or other court-ordered award or settlement as to which an Issuer or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, has not exhausted its appellate rights;
(h) any extension, renewal, refinancing, refunding or replacement (or successive extensions, renewals, refinancing, refunding or replacements) of Liens, in whole or in part, referred to in clauses (a) through (h), inclusive, of this Section 5.02; provided, however, that any such extension, renewal, refinancing, refunding or replacement Lien shall be limited to the property or assets covered by the Lien extended, renewed, refinanced, refunded or replaced and that the obligations secured by any such extension, renewal, refinancing, refunding or replacement Lien shall be in an amount not greater than the amount of the obligations secured by the Lien extended, renewed, refinanced, refunded or replaced and any expenses of the Issuers and the Restricted Subsidiaries (including any premium) incurred in connection with such extension, renewal, refinancing, refunding or replacement; or
E-13
(i) any Lien resulting from the deposit of moneys or evidence of indebtedness in trust for the purpose of defeasing Debt of an Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.02, the Issuers may, and may permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, create, assume, incur or suffer to exist any Lien upon any Principal Property or Capital Interests of a Restricted Subsidiary to secure Debt of an Issuer or any Person (other than Debt Securities) that is not excepted by clauses (a) through (i), inclusive, of this Section 5.02 without securing the Notes, provided that the aggregate principal amount of all Debt then outstanding secured by such Lien and all other Liens not excepted by clauses (a) through (i), inclusive, of this Section 5.02, together with all Attributable Indebtedness from Sale-leaseback Transactions (excluding Sale-leaseback Transactions permitted by clauses (a) through (d), inclusive, of Section 5.03), does not exceed 10% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets.
Section 5.03. Restriction of Sale-Leaseback Transaction. The Issuers will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary of the Partnership to, engage in a Sale-Leaseback Transaction, unless:
(a) such Sale-Leaseback Transaction occurs within one year from the date of completion of the acquisition of the Principal Property subject thereto or the date of the completion of construction, development or substantial repair or improvement, or commencement of full operations on such Principal Property, whichever is later;
(b) the Sale-Leaseback Transaction involves a lease for a period, including renewals, of not more than three years;
(c) the Attributable Indebtedness from that Sale-Leaseback Transaction is an amount equal to or less than the amount the Issuers or such Subsidiary would be allowed to incur as Debt secured by a Lien on the Principal Property subject thereto without equally and ratably securing the Notes under Section 5.02; or
(d) the Issuers or such Subsidiary, within a one-year period after such Sale-Leaseback Transaction, applies or causes to be applied an amount not less than the net sale proceeds from such Sale-Leaseback Transaction to (A) the prepayment, repayment, redemption, reduction or retirement of any Pari Passu Debt of an Issuer or any Subsidiary of the Partnership, or (B) the expenditure or expenditures for Principal Property used or to be used in the ordinary course of business of the Partnership or its Subsidiaries.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.03, the Issuers may, and may permit any Subsidiary of the Partnership to, effect any Sale-Leaseback Transaction that is not excepted by clauses (a) through (d), inclusive, of this Section 5.03, provided that the Attributable Indebtedness from such Sale-leaseback Transaction, together with the aggregate principal amount of then outstanding Debt (other than Debt Securities) secured by Liens upon Principal Property not excepted by clauses (a) through (i), inclusive, of Section 5.02, does not exceed 10% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets.

(b) If such filings are not then permitted by the Commission, or such filings are not generally available on the Internet free of charge, the Issuers shall provide the Trustee with, and the Trustee will mail to any Holder of Notes requesting in writing to the Trustee copies of, such annual, quarterly and other periodic reports specified in Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act within 15 days after the respective Required Filing Dates.
(c) In addition, the Issuers shall furnish to the Holders of Notes and to prospective investors, upon the requests of Holders of Notes, any information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act, so long as the Notes are not freely transferable under the Securities Act.
(d) The Partnership shall provide the Trustee with a sufficient number of copies of all reports and other documents and information that the Trustee may be required to deliver to Holders of Notes under clause (b) of this Section 5.04.
(e) Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Partnership’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates).
Section 5.05. Additional Subsidiary Guarantees. If any Subsidiary (or its successor) of the Partnership that is not then a Subsidiary Guarantor guarantees Debt of either of the Issuers or any other Subsidiary of the Partnership, in either case after the Issue Date, then such Subsidiary (or successor) shall execute and deliver a supplemental Indenture providing for the guarantee of the payment of the Notes pursuant to Article IX hereof.
ARTICLE VI
SUCCESSORS

E-15
a series of related transactions, except (1) in accordance with the provisions of the Partnership Agreement, and (2) unless: (a) either (i) such Issuer shall be the surviving Person in the case of a merger or (ii) the resulting, surviving or transferee Person if other than such Issuer (the “Successor Company”) shall be a partnership, limited liability company or corporation organized and existing under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia (provided that PAA Finance may not merge, amalgamate or consolidate with or into another Person other than a corporation satisfying such requirement for so long as the Partnership is not a corporation) and the Successor Company shall expressly assume, by an indenture supplemental hereto, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, the due and punctual payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on all of the Notes, and the due and punctual performance or observance of all the other obligations under the Indenture to be performed or observed by such Issuer; (b) immediately after giving effect to such transaction or series of transactions, no Default or Event of Default would occur or be continuing; (c) if the Issuer is not the continuing Person, then each Subsidiary Guarantor, unless it has become the Successor Company, shall confirm that its Guarantee shall continue to apply to the obligations under the Notes and the Indenture; and (d) such Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, amalgamation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition and such supplemental Indenture (if any) comply with this Section 6.01 and any other applicable provisions of the Indenture.
Section 6.02. Rights and Duties of Successor. In case of any consolidation, amalgamation or merger where an Issuer is not the continuing Person, or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of an Issuer in accordance with Section 6.01, the Successor Company shall succeed to and be substituted for such Issuer with the same effect as if it had been named herein as the respective party to the Indenture, and the predecessor entity shall be released from all liabilities and obligations under the Indenture and the Notes, except that no such release will occur in the case of a lease of all or substantially all of an Issuer’s assets. In case of any such consolidation, amalgamation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition, such changes in phraseology and form (but not in substance) may be made in the Notes thereafter to be issued as may be appropriate.
Section 6.03. Supplemental Indenture. Section 9.01 of the Original Indenture is hereby amended, with respect to the Notes, by adding the words “or a Subsidiary Guarantor’s” immediately after the word “Issuer’s” in Section 9.01(c).

(i) the Issuers default for 60 days in the payment when due of interest on, or Additional Interest with respect to, the Notes;
E-16
(ii) the Issuers default in the payment when due of principal of or premium, if any, on the Notes at maturity, upon redemption or otherwise;

(iv) default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Debt of an Issuer or any of the Partnership’s Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries), whether such Debt or guarantee now exists or is created after the Issue Date, if that default (A) is caused by a failure to pay principal of or premium, if any, or interest on such Debt prior to the expiration of the grace period provided in such Debt (a ”Payment Default”) or (B) results in the acceleration of the maturity of such Debt to a date prior to its original stated maturity, and, in each case described in clause (A) or (B), the principal amount of any such Debt, together with the principal amount of any other such Debt under which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $25.0 million or more; provided, further, that if any such default is cured or waived or any such acceleration rescinded, or such Debt is repaid, within a period of 30 days from the continuation of such default beyond the applicable grace period or the occurrence of such acceleration, as the case may be, such Event of Default and any consequential acceleration of the Notes shall be automatically rescinded, so long as such rescission does not conflict with any judgment or decree;

and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days.
(b) In the case of an Event of Default arising from Section 7.01(a)(vi) or 7.01(a)(vii) hereof involving an Issuer (and, for the avoidance of debt, excluding any such Event of Default that involves only one or more Subsidiary Guarantors), the principal amount of all Outstanding Notes and interest thereon shall become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes may declare the principal amount of all the Notes and interest thereon to be due and payable immediately by a notice in writing to the Issuers (and to the Trustee if given by the Holders) and upon any such declaration such principal amount and interest thereon shall be due and payable immediately.
ARTICLE VIII
LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE
Section 8.01. Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The Issuers may, at the option of the Boards of Directors evidenced by a Board Resolution set forth in an Officers’ Certificate, at any time, elect to have either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof be applied to all outstanding Notes and Guarantees upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article VIII.
Section 8.02. Legal Defeasance and Discharge. Upon the Issuers’ exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, each of the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes and Guarantees on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that each of the Issuers shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Debt represented by the outstanding Notes, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “Outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 hereof and the other Sections of the Indenture referred to in (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Notes and the Indenture, and each of the Subsidiary Guarantors shall be deemed to have discharged its obligations under its Guarantee (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of
E-18
the Issuers, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:
(a) the rights of Holders of Outstanding Notes to receive solely from the trust fund described in Section 8.04 hereof, and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of, premium on, if any, interest and Additional Interest, if any, on such Notes when such payments are due (but not the Change of Control Payment or the payment pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer),
(b) the Issuers’ obligations with respect to such Notes under Sections 2.07, 2.08, 2.09 and 4.02 of the Original Indenture,
(c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the Issuers’ obligations in connection therewith,
(d) this Article VIII, and
(e) the Issuers’ rights of optional redemption under Section 4.01 hereof.
Subject to compliance with this Article VIII, the Issuers may exercise their option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of their option under Section 8.03 hereof.
Section 8.03. Covenant Defeasance. Upon the Issuers’ exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, each of the Issuers shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from its obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 5.02, 5.03, 5.04 and 5.05 hereof with respect to the Outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not “Outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “Outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the Outstanding Notes, the Issuers may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 7.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of the Indenture, the Guarantees and such Notes shall be unaffected thereby.
Section 8.04. Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. The following shall be the conditions to the application of either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof to the Outstanding Notes:
In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance:

E-19
independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, premium on, if any, interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the Outstanding Notes at the Stated Maturity thereof or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Issuers must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to maturity or to a particular redemption date;
(b) in the case of an election under Section 8.02 hereof, the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that (i) the Issuers have received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (ii) since the date of the 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 of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the Outstanding Notes shall not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and shall 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 Legal Defeasance had not occurred;
(c) in the case of an election under Section 8.03 hereof, the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that the Holders of the Outstanding Notes shall not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and shall 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;
(d) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing either (i) on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the incurrence of Debt all or a portion of the proceeds of which shall be applied to such deposit) or (ii) insofar as Section 7.01(a)(vi) or 7.01(a)(vii) hereof is concerned, at any time in the period ending on the 91st day after the date of deposit;

(f) the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that after the 91st day following the deposit, the trust funds shall not be subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally;

(h) the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for or relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with.

Section 8.05. Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. Subject to Section 8.06 hereof, all money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof in respect of the outstanding Notes shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and the Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any paying agent (including an Issuer acting as 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 on, if any, interest and Additional Interest, if any, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.
The Issuers shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the Outstanding Notes.
Anything in this Article VIII to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Issuers from time to time upon the written request of the Issuers any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 8.04 hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(a) hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.
Section 8.06. Repayment to Issuers. Any money deposited with the Trustee or any paying agent, or then held by the Issuers, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium on, if any, interest or Additional Interest, if any, on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium, if any, interest or Additional Interest, if any, has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuers on their written request or (if then held by the Issuers) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured creditor, look only to the Issuers for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such paying agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Issuers as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such paying agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Issuers cause to be published once, in the New York Times and The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining shall be repaid to the Issuers.
Section 8.07. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or paying agent is unable to apply any Dollars or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Issuers’ obligations under the Indenture and the Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ obligations under the Guarantees shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof until such time as the Trustee or paying agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Issuers make any
E-21
payment of principal of, premium on, if any, interest or Additional Interest, if any, on any Note following the reinstatement of their obligations, the Issuers shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or paying agent.
ARTICLE IX
SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES
Section 9.01. Subsidiary Guarantees. (a) Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby jointly and severally unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees on a senior basis to each Holder and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns (i) the full and punctual payment of principal, premium, if any, interest, and Additional Interest, if any, with respect to, the Notes when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, and all other monetary obligations of the Issuers under the Indenture (including obligations to the Trustee) and the Notes and (ii) the full and punctual performance within applicable grace periods of all other obligations of the Issuers under the Indenture and the Notes (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the “Note Obligations”). Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that the Note Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from each such Subsidiary Guarantor, and that each such Subsidiary Guarantor shall remain bound under this Article IX notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Note Obligation.
(b) Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives presentation to, demand of, payment from and protest to the Issuers of any of the Note Obligations and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives notice of any Default or Event of Default under the Notes or the Note Obligations. The obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by (i) the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Issuers or any other Person under the Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement or otherwise; (ii) any extension or renewal of any thereof; (iii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of the Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement; (iv) the release of any security held by any Holder or the Trustee for the Note Obligations or any of them; (v) the failure of any Holder or Trustee to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor of the Note Obligations; or (vi) any change in the ownership of such Subsidiary Guarantor, except as provided in Section 9.02 hereof.
(c) Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee herein constitutes a guarantee of payment, performance and compliance when due (and not a guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder or the Trustee to any security held for payment of the Note Obligations.
(d) The obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason other than indefeasible payment in full of the Note Obligations, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Note Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor herein shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under the
E-22
Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Subsidiary Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Subsidiary Guarantor as a matter of law or equity.
(e) Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal, premium, if any, interest or Additional Interest, if any, with respect to any Note Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder or the Trustee upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of either of the Issuers or otherwise.
(f) In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder or the Trustee has at law or in equity against any Subsidiary Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Issuers to pay the principal, premium, if any, interest or Additional Interest, if any, with respect to any Note Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, or to perform or comply with any other Note Obligation, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby promises to and shall forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Holders or the Trustee an amount equal to the sum of (i) the unpaid principal amount of such Note Obligations, (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such Note Obligations (but only to the extent not prohibited by law) and (iii) all other monetary Note Obligations of the Issuers to the Holders and the Trustee.
(g) Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any Note Obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all Note Obligations. Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that, as between it, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (i) the maturity of the Note Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article VII hereof for the purposes of any Subsidiary Guarantor’s Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Note Obligations guaranteed hereby, and (ii) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article VII hereof, such Note Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by such Subsidiary Guarantor for the purposes of this Section 9.01.
(h) Each Subsidiary Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Trustee or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section 9.01.
Section 9.02. Limitation on Liability. Any term or provision of the Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum, aggregate amount of the Note Obligations guaranteed hereunder by any Subsidiary Guarantor shall not exceed the maximum amount that, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor and to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of its obligations under its Guarantee, can be hereby guaranteed without rendering the Indenture, as it relates to any Subsidiary Guarantor, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer.
E-23
Section 9.03. Successors and Assigns. This Article IX shall be binding upon each Subsidiary Guarantor and, except as provided in Section 9.07, its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Trustee and the Holders and, in the event of any transfer or assignment of rights by any Holder or the Trustee, the rights and privileges conferred upon that party in the Indenture and in the Notes shall automatically extend to and be vested in such transferee or assignee, all subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture.
Section 9.04. No Waiver. Neither a failure nor a delay on the part of either the Trustee or the Holders in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Article IX shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege. The rights, remedies and benefits of the Trustee and the Holders herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits which either may have under this Article IX at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.
Section 9.05. Modification. No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Article IX, nor the consent to any departure by any Subsidiary Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Trustee, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on any Subsidiary Guarantor in any case shall entitle such Subsidiary Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.
Section 9.06. Execution of Supplemental Indenture for Future Subsidiary Guarantors. Each Subsidiary which is required to become a Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to Section 5.05 hereof shall promptly execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental Indenture in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto pursuant to which such Subsidiary shall become a Subsidiary Guarantor under this Article IX and shall guarantee the Note Obligations. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of such supplemental Indenture, the Issuers shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such supplemental Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Subsidiary and that, subject to the application of bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or transfer and other similar laws relating to creditors’ rights generally and to the principles of equity, whether considered in a proceeding at law or in equity, the Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor is a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Subsidiary Guarantor, enforceable against such Subsidiary Guarantor in accordance with its terms.
Section 9.07. Release of Guarantee. Provided that no Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing under the Indenture, the Guarantee of a Subsidiary Guarantor under this Article IX shall terminate and be of no further force and effect, and such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be released from the Indenture and all Note Obligations, upon the following events:
(a) upon any sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of such Subsidiary Guarantor (including by way of merger, consolidation or otherwise) to any Person that is not an Affiliate of either of the Issuers (provided such sale or other disposition is not prohibited by the Indenture);
E-24
(b) upon any sale or other disposition of all of the Equity Interests of a Subsidiary Guarantor, to any Person that is not an Affiliate of either of the Issuers; or
(c) following delivery of a written notice of such release or discharge from the Guarantee by the Issuers to the Trustee, upon the release or discharge of all guarantees by such Subsidiary Guarantor of any Debt of the Issuers and any Subsidiary of the Partnership (other than Debt Securities issued on or after the Issue Date).
