NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Issuers, the Guarantors, the Town & Country Guarantors, SFS, Stripes Acquisition and the Trustee mutually covenant and agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes and the Additional Notes as follows:
1. | Capitalized Terms. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. |
2. | Issuance of Additional Notes. The Issuers shall issue the Additional Notes under the Indenture, subject to compliance with the terms thereof, with such Additional Notes to have identical terms to those of the Notes; provided, that the Additional Notes shall (i) have a date of issuance of November 13, 2007, (ii) have an issue price of 102.5%, plus accrued interest from June 15, 2007 and (iii) accrue interest from June 15, 2007. The Additional Notes will initially be issued in the form of Restricted Global Notes. |
3. | Agreement to Guarantee. Each of the Town & Country Guarantors, SFS and Stripes Acquisition hereby agrees, effective as of the closing of the Merger, to provide an unconditional Guarantee on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Note Guarantee and in the Indenture, including but not limited to Article 11 thereof. |

Each Holder of the Notes, by accepting a Note, waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Additional Notes. Such waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws and it is the view of the SEC that such a waiver is against public policy. |
