(1)

if the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary:

(a)

has Incurred any Indebtedness since the beginning of such period that remains outstanding on such date of determination or if the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated Coverage Ratio is an Incurrence of Indebtedness, Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period will be calculated after giving effect on a pro forma basis to such Indebtedness as if such Indebtedness had been Incurred on the first day of such period (except that in making such computation, the amount of Indebtedness under any revolving credit facility outstanding on the date of such calculation will be deemed to be (i) the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during such four fiscal quarters or such shorter period for which such facility was outstanding or (ii) if such facility was created after the end of such four fiscal quarters, the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the period from the date of creation of such facility to the date of such calculation) and the discharge of any other Indebtedness repaid, repurchased, defeased or otherwise discharged with the proceeds of such new Indebtedness as if such discharge had occurred on the first day of such period; or

(b)

has repaid, repurchased, defeased or otherwise discharged any Indebtedness since the beginning of the period that is no longer outstanding on such date of determination or if the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated Coverage Ratio involves a discharge of Indebtedness (in each case other than Indebtedness Incurred under any revolving credit facility unless such Indebtedness has been permanently repaid and the related commitment terminated), Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period will be calculated after giving effect on a pro forma basis to such discharge of such Indebtedness, including with the proceeds of such new Indebtedness, as if such discharge had occurred on the first day of such period;

(2)

if since the beginning of such period the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary will have made any Asset Disposition or disposed of any company, division, operating unit, segment, business, group of related assets or line of business or if the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated Coverage Ratio is such an Asset Disposition:

(a)

the Consolidated EBITDA for such period will be reduced by an amount equal to the Consolidated EBITDA (if positive) directly attributable to the assets which are the subject of such Asset Disposition for such period or increased by an amount equal to the Consolidated EBITDA (if negative) directly attributable thereto for such period; and

(b)

Consolidated Interest Expense for such period will be reduced by an amount equal to the Consolidated Interest Expense directly attributable to any Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary repaid, repurchased, defeased or otherwise discharged with respect to the Issuer and its continuing Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with such Asset Disposition for such period (or, if the Capital Stock of any Restricted Subsidiary is sold, the Consolidated Interest Expense for such period directly attributable to the Indebtedness of such Restricted Subsidiary to the extent the Issuer and its continuing Restricted Subsidiaries are no longer liable for such Indebtedness after such sale);

(3)

if since the beginning of such period the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (by merger or otherwise) will have made an Investment in any Restricted Subsidiary (or any Person which becomes a Restricted Subsidiary or is merged with or into the Issuer) or an acquisition of assets, including any acquisition of assets occurring in connection with a transaction causing a calculation to be made hereunder, which constitutes all or substantially all of a company, division, operating unit, segment, business, group of related assets or line of business, Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period will be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto (including the Incurrence of any Indebtedness) as if such Investment or acquisition occurred on the first day of such period; and

(4)

if since the beginning of such period any Person (that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged with or into the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary since the beginning of such period) will have Incurred any Indebtedness or discharged any Indebtedness, made any Asset Disposition or any Investment or acquisition of assets that would have required an adjustment pursuant to clause (2) or (3) above if made by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary during such period, Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period will be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Asset Disposition or Investment or acquisition of assets occurred on the first day of such period.

For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to any calculation under this definition, the pro forma calculations will be determined in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Issuer (including pro forma expense and cost reductions calculated on a basis consistent with Regulation S-X under the Securities Act). If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest expense on such Indebtedness will be calculated as if the rate in effect on the date of determination had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Interest Rate Agreement applicable to such Indebtedness if such Interest Rate Agreement has a remaining term in excess of 12 months). If any Indebtedness that is being given pro forma effect bears an interest rate at the option of the Issuer, the interest rate shall be calculated by applying such optional rate chosen by the Issuer.

“Consolidated EBITDA” for any period with respect to any specified Person means, without duplication, the Consolidated Net Income for such period of such Person, plus the following to the extent deducted in calculating such Consolidated Net Income:

(1)

In each case on a consolidated basis and in accordance with GAAP.

“Consolidated Income Taxes” means, with respect to any Person for any period, taxes imposed upon such Person or other payments required to be made by such Person by any governmental authority which taxes or other payments are calculated by reference to the income or profits of such Person or such Person and its Restricted Subsidiaries (to the extent such income or profits were included in computing Consolidated Net Income for such period), regardless of whether such taxes or payments are required to be remitted to any governmental authority.

“Consolidated Interest Expense” means, for any period, the total interest expense of the Issuer and its consolidated Restricted Subsidiaries, whether paid or accrued, plus, to the extent not included in such interest expense:

(1)

interest expense attributable to Capitalized Lease Obligations and the interest portion of rent expense associated with Attributable Indebtedness in respect of the relevant lease giving rise thereto, determined as if such lease were a capitalized lease in accordance with GAAP and the interest component of any deferred payment obligations;

(2)

amortization of debt discount and debt issuance cost;

(3)

The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rules or usage. The Issuer and the Trustee shall approve the form of the Notes and any notation, legend or endorsement on them not inconsistent with the terms of this Indenture. Each Note shall be dated the date of its issuance and shall show the date of its authentication.

The terms and provisions contained in the Notes, annexed hereto as Exhibits A and B, shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture and, to the extent applicable, the Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Trustee, the Security Trustee, the Principal Paying Agent and the Luxembourg Paying Agent, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. The Notes will initially be represented by the Global Notes.

As long as the Notes are in global form, the Principal Paying Agent (in lieu of the Trustee) shall be responsible for:

(i)

effecting payments due on the Global Notes (following receipt of payment thereof from Issuer); and

(ii)

arranging on behalf of and at the expense of the Issuer for notices to be communicated to holders of the Notes in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.

Each reference in this Indenture to the performance of duties set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above by the Trustee includes performance of such duties by the Principal Paying Agent.

Notes offered and sold in their initial distribution in reliance on Regulation S shall be initially issued as one or more global notes, in registered global form without interest coupons, substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, with such applicable legends as are provided in Exhibits A hereto, except as otherwise permitted herein. Such Global Notes shall be referred to collectively herein as the “International Global Notes.” The aggregate principal amount of the International Global Notes may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee (following receipt by the Trustee of all information required hereunder), as hereinafter provided (or by the issue of a further International Global Note), in connection with a corresponding decrease or increase in the aggregate principal amount of the U.S. Global Note (as defined below) or in consequence of the issue of Definitive Notes or additional International Notes, as hereinafter provided. The International Global Note and all other Notes that are not U.S. Notes shall collectively be referred to herein as the “International Notes.”

Notes offered and sold in their initial distribution in reliance on Rule 144A shall be initially issued as one or more global notes in registered, global form without interest coupons, substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, with such applicable legends as are provided in Exhibit A, except as otherwise permitted herein.

The U.S. Global Notes and all other Notes, if any, evidencing the debt, or any portion of the debt, initially evidenced by such U.S. Global Note, shall collectively be referred to herein as the “U.S. Notes.”

SECTION 2.2 Execution and Authentication. One Officer shall sign the Notes for the Issuer by manual or facsimile signature.

If an Officer whose signature is on a Note was an Officer at the time of such execution but no longer holds that office or position at the time the Trustee authenticates the Notes, the Notes shall be valid nevertheless. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on such signature as authentic and shall be under no obligation to make any investigation in relation thereto.

A Note shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on the Note. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture.

Except as otherwise provided herein, the aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be outstanding at any time under this Indenture is not limited in amount. The Trustee shall authenticate such Notes which shall consist of (i) Original Notes for original issue on the Issue Date in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed €200,000,000 and (ii) Additional Notes from time to time for issuance after the Issue Date to the extent otherwise permitted hereunder (including, without limitation, under Section 4.3 hereof), in each case upon receipt by the Trustee of a Company Order in the form of an Officers’ Certificate. Additional Notes will be treated as the same series of Notes as the Original Notes for all purposes under this Indenture, including, without limitation, for purposes of waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase. Such Company Order shall specify the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be authenticated, the date on which the Notes are to be authenticated, the issue price and the date from which interest on such Notes shall accrue, whether the Notes are to be Original Notes or Additional Notes, whether the Notes are to be issued as Definitive Notes or Global Notes and whether or not the Notes shall bear the Private Placement Legend, or such other information as the Trustee may reasonably request.

In authenticating the Notes and accepting the responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to the Notes, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee stating that the form and terms thereof have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture, do not give rise to a Default and that the issuance of such Notes has been duly authorized by the Issuer and, if applicable, the Subsidiary Guarantors. Upon receipt of a Company Order, the Trustee shall authenticate Notes in substitution of Notes originally issued to reflect any name change of the Issuer.

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent (“Authenticating Agent”) reasonably acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate Notes. Unless otherwise provided in the appointment, an Authenticating Agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such Authenticating Agent. An Authenticating Agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with the Issuer and Affiliates of the Issuer.

The Notes shall be issuable only in denominations of €50,000 and any integral multiple of €1,000 in excess thereof.

SECTION 2.3 Registrar and Paying Agent. (a) The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, where Global Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”). The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency in London, England, where (i) Global Notes may be presented or surrendered for payment (“Principal Paying Agent”) and (ii) notices and demands in respect of such Global Notes and this Indenture may be served. In the event that Definitive Notes are issued, (x) Definitive Notes may be presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange, (y) Definitive Notes may be presented or surrendered for payment and (z) notices and demands in respect of the Definitive Notes and this Indenture may be served at an office of the Registrar or the Principal Paying Agent, as applicable, in London, England. The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Issuer, upon notice to the Trustee, may have one or more co-Registrars and one or more additional Paying Agents reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. The term “Registrar” includes any co-Registrar, and the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional Paying Agent. The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar for the Notes, provided that, for so long as the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and the rules of such stock exchange so require, the Issuer will appoint a person in The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg who is reasonably acceptable to the Trustee as an additional Paying Agent for the Notes. The Issuer initially appoints The Bank of New York Mellon, acting through its London Branch, as Transfer Agent and Principal Paying Agent until such time as The Bank of New York Mellon, acting through its London Branch, has resigned and a successor has been appointed. In addition, the Issuer appoints The Bank of New York Mellon (Luxembourg) S.A. as Registrar, Luxembourg Paying Agent, and Luxembourg Transfer Agent provided that, if the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and the rules of such stock exchange so require, the Issuer will continue to maintain a Paying Agent in The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg who is reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. In the event that a Paying Agent or Transfer Agent is replaced, the Issuer will provide notice thereof, published, if and so long as the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and the rules of such stock exchange so require, in a daily newspaper with general circulation in The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg (which is expected to be the d’Wort) or on the website of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange at xxx.xxxxxx.xx, and, in the case of Definitive Notes, in addition to such publication, mailed by first-class mail to each holder’s registered address, as it appears on the register of the Notes held by the Registrar, with a copy to the Trustee. The Issuer may change any Registrar or Paying Agent without prior notice to the holders of the Notes as long as a Luxembourg Paying Agent is kept so long as the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and the rules of such stock exchange so require. Payment of principal will be made upon the surrender of Definitive Notes at the office of any Paying Agent, including, if any, the Paying Agent in The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. In the case of a transfer of a Definitive Note in part, upon surrender of the Definitive Note to be transferred, a Definitive Note shall be issued to the transferee in respect of the principal amount transferred and a Definitive Note shall be issued to the transferor in respect of the balance of the principal amount of the transferred Definitive Note at the office of any Transfer Agent, including, if any, the Transfer Agent in The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg.

The Bank of New York Mellon, acting through its London Branch, will initially act as Principal Paying Agent for the Notes. The Issuer will also undertake, to the extent possible, to maintain a Paying Agent in a European Union member state that will not be obliged to withhold or deduct tax pursuant to the European Union Directive 2003/48/EC regarding the taxation of savings income (the “Directive”). The Issuer may change the Paying Agent or Registrar for the Notes without prior notice to the holders of the Notes, and the Issuer, or any of its subsidiaries, may act as Paying Agent or Registrar for the Notes. In the event that a Paying Agent or the Registrar is replaced, the Issuer will provide notice thereof in accordance with the procedures described below under Section 12.1.

Claims against the Issuer for payment of principal, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes will become void unless presentment for payment is made (where so required herein) within, in the case of principal and Additional Amounts, if any, a period of ten years or, in the case of interest, a period of five years, in each case from the applicable original date of payment therefor.

The obligations of the Agents are several and not joint.

SECTION 2.4 Paying Agent to Hold Assets. Each Paying Agent shall hold to the order of the holders of the Notes or the Trustee all assets received by the Paying Agent (whether such assets have been paid to it by the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor) for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on, the Notes, and shall notify the Trustee of any Default by the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor in making any such payment. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to distribute all assets held by it to the Trustee and account for any assets disbursed and the Trustee may at any time during the continuance of any payment Default, upon written request to a Paying Agent, require such Paying Agent to distribute all assets held by it to the Trustee and to account for any assets distributed. Upon distribution to the Trustee of all assets that shall have been delivered by the Issuer to the Paying Agent pursuant to this Section 2.4, the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for such assets. If the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the assets held by it as Paying Agent and hold it as a separate trust fund.

SECTION 2.5 List of Holders of Notes. In the event that Definitive Notes are issued, the Registrar shall preserve, in as current a form as is reasonably practicable, the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of holders of the Notes, together with the principal amount of Notes held by each such holder of the Notes and the aggregate principal amount of debt obligations outstanding. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee at least two Business Days before each Record Date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list as of such date, and in such form as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of holders of the Notes, which list may be conclusively relied upon by the Trustee.

SECTION 2.6 Book-Entry Provisions for Global Notes.(a) The Global Notes initially shall (i) be deposited with and registered in the name of a nominee for the Common Depositary of the Clearing Agencies and (ii) bear legends as set forth in Section 2.7(g) hereof.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, a Global Note may not be transferred as a whole except by a nominee for the Common Depositary to a successor nominee for the Common Depositary. Interests of beneficial owners in the Global Notes may be transferred or exchanged for Definitive Notes in accordance with the rules and procedures of the Clearing Agency and the provisions of Section 2.7 of this Indenture. All Global Notes shall be exchanged by the Issuer (with authentication by the Trustee) for one or more Definitive Notes if (a) any Clearing Agency (i) has notified the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as a clearing agency and (ii) a successor to the Clearing Agency is not appointed by the Issuer within 90 days of such notification, (b) any Clearing Agency so requests following an Event of Default hereunder and which Event of Default is continuing or (c) in whole (but not in part) at any time if the Issuer in its sole discretion so determines and notifies the Trustee in writing that it elects to issue Definitive Notes. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Issuer shall, at the written request delivered through a Clearing Agency of the holders of Notes thereof or of the holder of an interest therein, exchange all or part of a Global Note for one or more Definitive Notes (with authentication by the Trustee); provided, however, that the principal amount at maturity of such Definitive Notes and such Global Note after such exchange shall be €50,000 and any integral multiple of €1,000 in excess thereof. Whenever all of a Global Note is exchanged for one or more Definitive Notes, it shall be surrendered by the holder thereof to the Trustee for cancellation. Whenever a part of a Global Note is exchanged for one or more Definitive Notes, the Global Note shall be surrendered by the holder thereof to the Trustee, who shall cause an adjustment to be made to Schedule A of such Global Note such that the principal amount of such Global Note will be equal to the portion of such Global Note not exchanged, and shall thereafter return such Global Note to such holder. A Global Note may not be exchanged for a Definitive Note other than as provided in this Section 2.6(b).

(c) In connection with the transfer of Global Notes as an entirety to beneficial owners pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section 2.6, the Global Notes shall be deemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Company Order in the form of an Officers’ Certificate, authenticate and make available for delivery, to each beneficial owner in exchange for its beneficial interest in the Global Notes, an equal aggregate principal amount of Definitive Notes of authorized denominations.

(d) Any Definitive Note delivered in exchange for an interest in a Global Note pursuant to Subsection (b) of this Section 2.6 shall, except as otherwise provided by Section 2.8, bear the Private Placement Legend.

SECTION 2.7 Registration of Transfer and Exchange. (a) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, so long as a Note remains outstanding, transfers and exchange of beneficial interests in Global Notes or transfers and exchange of Definitive Notes, in whole or in part, shall be made only in accordance with this Section 2.7.

(b) If a holder of a beneficial interest in a U.S. Global Note wishes at any time to exchange its interest in such U.S. Global Note for an interest in the International Global Note of the same series, or to transfer its interest in such U.S. Global Note to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of an interest in such International Global Note, such holder may, subject to the rules and procedures of the Clearing Agency, to the extent applicable, and to the requirements set forth in this Subsection (b), exchange or cause the exchange or transfer or cause the transfer of such interest for an equivalent beneficial interest in such International Global Note. Such exchange or transfer shall only be made upon receipt by any Transfer Agent of (1) written instructions given in accordance with the procedures of the Clearing Agency, to the extent applicable, from or on behalf of a holder of a beneficial interest in the U.S. Global Note, directing the Trustee to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in the International Global Note of the same series in an amount equal to the beneficial interest in the U.S. Global Note to be exchanged or transferred, (2) a written order given in accordance with the procedures of the Clearing Agency, to the extent applicable, containing information regarding the account to be credited with such increase and the name of such account, and (3) a certificate in the form of Exhibit C given by the holder of such beneficial interest stating that the exchange or transfer of such interest has been made pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 903 or Rule 904 of Regulation S or Rule 144 under the U.S. Securities Act. Upon such receipt, the Transfer Agent shall promptly deliver appropriate instructions to the Clearing Agency to reduce or reflect a reduction of the relevant U.S. Global Note by the aggregate principal amount of the beneficial interest in such U.S. Global Note to be so exchanged or transferred from the relevant participant, and the Transfer Agent shall promptly deliver appropriate instructions to the Clearing Agency concurrently with such reduction to increase or reflect on its records an increase of the principal amount of such International Global Note by the aggregate principal amount of the beneficial interest in such U.S. Global Note to be so exchanged or transferred, and to credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in such International Global Note equal to the reduction in the principal amount of such U.S. Global Note.

(c) If a holder of a beneficial interest in an International Global Note wishes at any time to exchange its interest in such International Global Note for an interest in the U.S. Global Note, or to transfer its interest in such International Global Note of the same series to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of an interest in such U.S. Global Note, such holder may, subject to the rules and procedures of the Clearing Agency, to the extent applicable, and to the requirements set forth in this Subsection (c), exchange or cause the exchange or transfer or cause the transfer of such interest for an equivalent beneficial interest in such U.S. Global Note. Such exchange or transfer shall only be made upon receipt by a Transfer Agent of (l) written instructions given in accordance with the procedures of the Clearing Agency, to the extent applicable, from or on behalf of a beneficial owner of an interest in the International Global Note directing the Transfer Agent to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in the U.S. Global Note of the same series in an amount equal to the beneficial interest in the International Global Note to be exchanged or transferred, (2) a written order given in accordance with the procedures of the Clearing Agency, to the extent applicable, containing information regarding the account to be credited with such increase and the name of such account, and (3) prior to or on the 40th day after the later of the commencement of the offering of the Notes and the relevant Issue Date (the “Restricted Period”), a certificate in the form of Exhibit D given by the holder of such beneficial interest and stating that the Person transferring such interest in such International Global Note reasonably believes that the Person acquiring such interest in such U.S. Global Note is a Qualified Institutional Buyer (as defined in Rule 144A) and is obtaining such beneficial interest in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A and any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States or any other jurisdiction. Upon such receipt, the Trustee shall promptly deliver appropriate instructions to the Clearing Agency to reduce or reflect a reduction of the relevant International Global Note by the aggregate principal amount of the beneficial interest in such International Global Note to be exchanged or transferred, and the Trustee shall promptly deliver appropriate instructions to the Clearing Agency concurrently with such reduction, to increase or reflect an increase of the principal amount of such U.S. Global Note by the aggregate principal amount of the beneficial interest in such International Global Note to be so exchanged or transferred, and credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in such U.S. Global Note equal to the reduction in the principal amount of such International Global Note. After the expiration of the Restricted Period, the certification requirement set forth in clause (3) of the second sentence of this Section 2.7(c) will no longer apply to such transfers.

(d) Any beneficial interest in one of the Global Notes that is transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in one of the other Global Notes will, upon transfer, cease to be an interest in such Global Note and become an interest in one of the other Global Notes and, accordingly, will thereafter be subject to all transfer restrictions and other procedures applicable to beneficial interests in such other Global Note for as long as it remains such an interest.

(e) In the event that a Global Note is exchanged for Definitive Notes in registered form without interest coupons, pursuant to Section 2.6(b), or a Definitive Note in registered form without interest coupons is exchanged for another such Definitive Note in registered form without interest coupons, or a Definitive Note is exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Global Note, such Notes may be exchanged or transferred for one another only in accordance with such procedures as are substantially consistent with the provisions of Sections 2.7(b) and (c) above (including the certification requirements intended to ensure that such exchanges or transfers comply with Rule 144, Rule 144A or Regulation S, as the case may be) and as may be from time to time adopted by the Issuer and the Trustee.

(f) Prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period, beneficial interests in the International Global Notes may only be exchanged or transferred in accordance with the certification requirements of Section 2.7(c).

(g) Each Note issued under this Indenture shall, upon issuance, bear the legend set forth herein and such legend shall not be removed from such Note except as provided in the next sentence. The legend required for one of the U.S. Notes may be removed from such U.S. Note if there is delivered to the Issuer and the Trustee such satisfactory evidence, which may include an opinion of independent counsel licensed to practice law in the State of New York, as may be reasonably required by the Issuer and the Trustee, that neither such legend nor the restrictions on transfer set forth therein are required to ensure that transfers of such Note will not violate the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act, and the Issuer and the Trustee consent to such removal. Upon provision of such satisfactory evidence, the Trustee, at the written direction of the Issuer, shall authenticate and deliver in exchange for such Note, another Note or Notes having an equal aggregate principal amount that does not bear such legend. If such a legend required for one of the U.S. Notes has been removed from such U.S. Note as provided above, no other Note issued in exchange for all or any part of such Note shall bear such legend, unless the Issuer has reasonable cause to believe that such other Note is a “restricted security” within the meaning of Rule 144 and instructs the Trustee to cause a legend to appear thereon.

The Notes shall bear the following legend (the “Private Placement Legend”) on the face thereof:

THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “U.S. SECURITIES ACT”), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION. NEITHER THIS SECURITY NOR ANY INTEREST OR PARTICIPATION HEREIN MAY BE REOFFERED, SOLD, ASSIGNED, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, ENCUMBERED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR UNLESS SUCH TRANSACTION IS EXEMPT FROM, OR NOT SUBJECT TO, SUCH REGISTRATION.

THE HOLDER OF THIS SECURITY, BY ITS ACCEPTANCE HEREOF, AGREES ON ITS OWN BEHALF AND ON BEHALF OF ANY INVESTOR ACCOUNT FOR WHICH IT HAS PURCHASED SECURITIES, TO OFFER, SELL OR OTHERWISE TRANSFER SUCH SECURITY, PRIOR TO THE DATE (THE “RESALE RESTRICTION TERMINATION DATE”) THAT IS ONE YEAR AFTER THE LATER OF THE ORIGINAL ISSUE DATE HEREOF AND THE LAST DATE ON WHICH THE ISSUER OR ANY AFFILIATE OF THE ISSUER WAS THE OWNER OF THIS SECURITY (OR ANY PREDECESSOR OF SUCH SECURITY), ONLY (A) TO THE ISSUER, (B) PURSUANT TO A REGISTRATION STATEMENT THAT HAS BEEN DECLARED EFFECTIVE UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT, (C) FOR SO LONG AS THE SECURITIES ARE ELIGIBLE FOR RESALE PURSUANT TO RULE 144A UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT, TO A PERSON IT REASONABLY BELIEVES IS A “QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER” AS DEFINED IN RULE 144A UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT THAT PURCHASES FOR ITS OWN ACCOUNT OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OF A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER TO WHOM NOTICE IS GIVEN THAT THE TRANSFER IS BEING MADE IN RELIANCE ON RULE 144A UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT, (D) PURSUANT TO OFFERS AND SALES TO NON-U.S. PERSONS THAT OCCUR OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES WITHIN THE MEANING OF REGULATION S UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT, (E) TO AN INSTITUTIONAL “ACCREDITED INVESTOR” WITHIN THE MEANING OF RULE 501(a)(1), (2), (3) OR (7) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT THAT IS AN INSTITUTIONAL ACCREDITED INVESTOR ACQUIRING THE SECURITY FOR ITS OWN ACCOUNT OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OF SUCH AN INSTITUTIONAL ACCREDITED INVESTOR, IN EACH CASE IN A MINIMUM PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF THE SECURITIES OF $250,000, FOR INVESTMENT PURPOSES AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO OR FOR OFFER OR SALE IN CONNECTION WITH ANY DISTRIBUTION IN VIOLATION OF THE SECURITIES ACT, OR (F) PURSUANT TO ANOTHER AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT, SUBJECT TO THE ISSUER’S AND THE TRUSTEE’S RIGHT PRIOR TO ANY SUCH OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER PURSUANT TO CLAUSES (D), (E) OR (F) TO REQUIRE THE DELIVERY OF AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, CERTIFICATION AND/OR OTHER INFORMATION SATISFACTORY TO EACH OF THEM. THIS LEGEND WILL BE REMOVED UPON THE REQUEST OF THE HOLDER AFTER THE RESALE RESTRICTION TERMINATION DATE.

(h) By its acceptance of any Note bearing the Private Placement Legend, each holder of such a Note acknowledges the restrictions on transfer of such Note set forth in this Indenture and in the Private Placement Legend and agrees that it will transfer such Note only as provided in this Indenture.

Neither the Trustee nor the Principal Paying Agent, any Paying Agent, Transfer Agent or Registrar shall have any obligation or duty to, and shall not be liable for any failure to, monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any transfers between or among members of, or participants in, a Clearing Agency (“Agent Members”) or beneficial owners of interests in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

The Trustee shall retain copies of all letters, notices and other written communications received pursuant to Section 2.6 or this Section 2.7. The Issuer shall have the right to inspect and make copies of all such letters, notices or other written communications at any reasonable time upon the giving of reasonable written notice to the Trustee.

(i) Definitive Notes shall be transferable only upon the surrender of a Definitive Note for registration of transfer. When a Definitive Note is presented to the Registrar or a co-Registrar with a request to register a transfer, the Registrar shall register the transfer as requested if its requirements for such transfers are met. When Definitive Notes are presented to the Registrar or a co-Registrar with a request to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Definitive Notes of other denominations, the Registrar shall make the exchange as requested if the same requirements are met. When a Definitive Note is presented to the Registrar with a request to transfer in part, the transferor shall be entitled to receive without charge a definitive security representing the balance of such Definitive Note not transferred. To permit registration of transfers and exchanges, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Notes at the Registrar’s or co-Registrar’s request.

(j) The Issuer shall not be required to make, and the Registrar need not register transfers or exchanges of, Definitive Notes (i) for a period of 15 calendar days prior to any date fixed for the redemption of the Notes, (ii) for a period of 15 calendar days immediately prior to the date fixed for selection of Notes to be redeemed in part, (iii) for a payment period of 15 calendar days prior to any Record Date, or (iv) that the relevant holder of such a Note has tendered (and not withdrawn) for repurchase in connection with a Change of Control Offer or Asset Disposition Offer.

(k) Prior to the due presentation for registration of transfer of any Definitive Note, the Issuer, any Subsidiary Guarantor, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or any Transfer Agent, the Registrar or any co-Registrar may deem and treat the Person in whose name a Definitive Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Definitive Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal, interest or Additional Amounts, if any, on such Definitive Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Definitive Note is overdue, and none of the Issuer, any Subsidiary Guarantor, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or any Transfer Agent, the Registrar or any co-Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

(l) A holder of Notes may transfer or exchange Notes in accordance with this Indenture which shall provide that, for so long as the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and the rules of such stock exchange so require, holders of Notes will be able to transfer Notes at an office of the specified transfer agent in Luxembourg. The Registrar and the Trustee for the Notes may require a holder of a Note, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents, and the Issuer may require such holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by this Indenture. The Issuer is not required to transfer or exchange any Note selected for redemption. Also, the Issuer is not required to transfer or exchange any Note for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed. The registered holder of a Note will be treated as the owner of it for all purposes. No service charge will be made to any holder of Notes for any registration or transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or other similar government charge payable in connection therewith.

(m) All Notes issued upon any transfer or exchange pursuant to the terms of this Indenture will evidence the same debt and will be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as the corresponding Notes surrendered upon such transfer or exchange.

(n) Holders of Notes (or holders of interests therein) and prospective purchasers designated by such holders of the Notes (or holders of interests therein) will have the right to obtain from the Issuer upon request by such holders of the Notes (or holders of interests therein) or prospective purchasers, during any period in which the Issuer is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the U.S. Exchange Act, or is exempt from reporting pursuant to 12g3-2(b) under the U.S. Exchange Act, the information required by Subsection d(4)(i) of Rule 144A in connection with any transfer or proposed transfer of such Notes.

SECTION 2.8 Replacement Notes. If a mutilated Definitive Note is surrendered to the Registrar, if a mutilated Global Note is surrendered to the Issuer or if the holder of a Note claims that such Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note in such form as the Note being replaced if the requirements of the Trustee, the Registrar, the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors are met. If required by the Trustee, the Registrar, the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, such holder must provide an indemnity bond or other indemnity, sufficient in the judgment of the Issuer, any Subsidiary Guarantor, the Registrar and the Trustee, to protect the Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Trustee and the Registrar and any Agent from any loss which any of them may suffer when such Note is replaced. The Issuer may charge such holder of the Notes for its reasonable, out-of-pocket expenses in replacing a Note, including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel. Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Issuer. If any mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Note has become or is about to become due and payable the Issuer may, in its discretion, instead of issuing a replacement Note, pay such Note. The provisions of this Section 2.8 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement of mutilated, destroyed, lost, stolen or taken Notes.

SECTION 2.9 Outstanding Notes. Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes that have been authenticated by the Trustee except those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the Global Note effected in accordance with the provisions hereof and those described in this Section as not outstanding. Subject to Section 2.10, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or any of its Affiliates holds the Note.

If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.8 (other than a mutilated Note surrendered for replacement), it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it, and upon which it shall be entitled to rely without liability, that the replaced Note is held by a bona fide purchaser. A mutilated Note ceases to be outstanding upon surrender of such Note and replacement thereof pursuant to Section 2.8.

If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.1 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on it cease to accrue.

If on a Redemption Date or the Maturity Date the Paying Agent holds cash in euro sufficient to pay all of the principal, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, due on the Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes cease to be outstanding and interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on such Notes cease to accrue.

SECTION 2.10 Treasury Notes. In determining whether the holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Issuer or its Subsidiaries shall be disregarded, except that, for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that a Trust Officer actually knows are so owned shall be disregarded.

The Issuer shall notify the Trustee, in writing, when it or any of its Subsidiaries repurchases or otherwise acquires Notes of the aggregate principal amount of such Notes so repurchased or otherwise acquired. The Trustee may require an Officers’ Certificate, which shall be promptly provided, listing Notes owned by the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries.

SECTION 2.11 Temporary Notes. In the event that Definitive Notes become issuable under the Indenture, until permanent Definitive Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Definitive Notes upon receipt of a Company Order pursuant to Section 2.2. The Company Order shall specify the amount of temporary Definitive Notes to be authenticated and the date on which the temporary Definitive Notes are to be authenticated. Temporary Definitive Notes shall be substantially in the form of permanent Definitive Notes but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Definitive Notes. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate, upon receipt of a Company Order pursuant to Section 2.2, permanent Definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Definitive Notes.

SECTION 2.12 Cancellation. The Issuer at any time may deliver Notes to the Registrar for cancellation. The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall promptly forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for transfer, exchange or payment. The Registrar, or at the direction of the Registrar, the Paying Agent, and no one else, shall cancel and, at the written direction of the Issuer, shall dispose of (subject to the record retention requirements of the U.S. Exchange Act) all Notes surrendered for transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation. Upon completion of any disposal, the Registrar shall (at the Issuer’s expense) deliver a certificate of such disposal to the Issuer, unless the Issuer directs the Registrar in writing to deliver (at the Issuer’s expense) the cancelled Notes to the Issuer. Subject to Section 2.7, the Issuer may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or delivered to the Registrar for cancellation. If the Issuer shall acquire any of the Notes, such acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of the Indebtedness represented by such Notes unless and until the same are surrendered to the Registrar for cancellation pursuant to this Section 2.12.

SECTION 2.13 Defaulted Interest. If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it shall pay the defaulted interest, plus (to the extent lawful) any interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the holder of such Note thereof on a subsequent special record date, which date shall be the fifteenth day next preceding the date fixed by the Issuer for the payment of defaulted interest. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee and the Principal Paying Agent in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment (a “Default Interest Payment Date”), and at the same time the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee or the Principal Paying Agent an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such defaulted interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee or the Principal Paying Agent for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such defaulted interest as in this Section 2.13; provided, however, that in no event shall the Issuer deposit monies proposed to be paid in respect of defaulted interest later than 12:00 p.m. London time on the Business Day prior to the proposed Default Interest Payment Date with respect to defaulted interest to be paid on the Note. At least 15 days before the subsequent special record date, the Issuer shall mail to each holder of the Notes at its registered address, with a copy to the Trustee and the Principal Paying Agent, a notice that states the subsequent special record date, the payment date and the amount of defaulted interest, and interest payable on such defaulted interest, if any, to be paid.

SECTION 2.14 ISIN and Common Codes. The Issuer in issuing the Notes may use an “ISIN” or “Common Code” number, and if so, the Trustee shall use the ISIN and Common Codes in notices of redemption or exchange as a convenience to holders of the Notes; provided, however, that any such notice may state that no representation is made by the Trustee as to the correctness or accuracy of the ISIN and Common Codes printed in the notice or on the Notes, and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes. The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee of any change in any ISIN or Common Codes.

SECTION 2.15 Deposit of Moneys. Prior to 10:00 p.m. London time on the Business Day immediately preceding each interest payment date and the Maturity Date, the Issuer shall have deposited with the Trustee or its designated Paying Agent (which shall be the Principal Paying Agent unless otherwise notified to the Issuer by the Trustee) in immediately available funds money sufficient to make cash payments, if any, due on such interest payment date or Maturity Date, as the case may be, on all Notes then outstanding. Such payments shall be made by the Issuer in a timely manner which permits the Paying Agent to remit payment to the holders of the Notes on such interest payment date or Maturity Date, as the case may be. The Issuer shall, prior to 10:00 p.m. London time on the second Business Day prior to the date on which the Principal Paying Agent receives payment, procure that the bank effecting payment confirms by SWIFT message to the Trustee that an irrevocable payment instruction has been given.

SECTION 2.16 Certain Matters Relating to Global Notes. Agent Members shall have no rights under this Indenture or any of the Global Notes with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the Clearing Agency, the Common Depositary or its nominee, and the Clearing Agency, the Common Depositary or its nominee may be treated by the Issuer, any Subsidiary Guarantor, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer, any Subsidiary Guarantor or the Trustee as the absolute owner of the Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Issuer, any Subsidiary Guarantor, the Trustee or any agent of the Issuer, any Subsidiary Guarantor or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Clearing Agency or its nominee or impair, as between the Clearing Agency and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of any Note.

The holder of interest in any Global Note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any person, including Euroclear and Clearstream and their Agent Members and persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action which a holder of such interest in a Global Note is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Notes.

ARTICLE III

REDEMPTION

SECTION 3.1 Optional Redemption. The Notes may be redeemed, as a whole or from time to time in part, upon the terms and at the redemption prices set forth in each of the Notes. Any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.1 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of this Article III.

SECTION 3.2 Notices to Trustee. If the Issuer elects to redeem Notes pursuant to Paragraphs 7 or 8 of such Notes, it shall notify the Trustee and the Principal Paying Agent in writing of the Redemption Date, the amount of any premium and the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date (or such shorter period as the Trustee in its sole discretion shall determine). The Issuer shall give notice of redemption as required under the relevant paragraph of the Notes pursuant to which such Notes are being redeemed.

SECTION 3.3 Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed. If fewer than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, selection of such Notes for redemption will be made by the Trustee in compliance with the requirements of the principal securities exchange, if any, on which such Notes are listed, or if the Notes are not so listed or such exchange prescribes no method of selection, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion shall deem fair and appropriate (and in such manner as complies with applicable legal and exchange requirements); provided, however, that no Note of €50,000 in aggregate principal amount or less shall be redeemed in part. In the event of partial redemption by lot, the particular Notes to be redeemed shall be selected, unless otherwise provided herein, not less than 15 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee from the outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption. The Trustee assumes no liability in relation to selections made by it pursuant to this Section 3.3.

SECTION 3.4 Notice of Redemption. Other than as provided in the paragraph below, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a Redemption Date so long as the Notes are in global form, the Issuer (a) shall notify the Trustee, the Registrar and the Principal Paying Agent and (b) publish a notice of redemption in accordance with the provisions of Article 12.1 hereof, or in the case of Definitive Notes, in addition to such publication, mail such notice to each holder of the Notes by first-class mail, postage prepaid, with a copy to the Trustee at such holder’s address as it appears on the registration books of the Registrar. At the Issuer’s request made at least 30 days before the Redemption Date (or such shorter period as the Trustee in its sole discretion shall determine), the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Issuer’s name and at the Issuer’s expense; provided, however, that the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee (in advance) an Officers’ Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting forth in full the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the following items.

Each notice of redemption shall identify the Notes to be redeemed and shall state:

(a) the Redemption Date;

(b) the Redemption Prices and the amount of accrued and unpaid interest, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, to be paid (subject to the right of holders of record of Definitive Notes on the relevant Record Date to receive interest and Additional Amounts, if any, due on the relevant interest payment date);

(d) that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to a Paying Agent to collect the Redemption Price plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any;

(e) that, unless the Issuer defaults in making the redemption payment, then interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on Notes called for redemption cease to accrue on and after the Redemption Date, and the only remaining right of the holders of such Notes is to receive payment of the Redemption Price upon surrender to the Paying Agent of the Notes redeemed;

(f) (i) if any Global Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Note to be redeemed and that, after the Redemption Date, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, shall cease to accrue on the portion called for redemption, and upon surrender of such Global Note, the Global Note with a notation on Schedule A thereof adjusting the principal amount thereof to be equal to the unredeemed portion, will be returned and (ii) if any Definitive Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Note to be redeemed, and that, after the Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Definitive Note, a new Definitive Note or Notes in aggregate principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued in the name of the holder thereof, upon cancellation of the original Note;

(g) if fewer than all the Notes are to be redeemed, the identification of the particular Notes (or portion thereof) to be redeemed, as well as the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be outstanding after such partial redemption;

(h) the paragraph of the terms of the Notes pursuant to which the Notes are to be redeemed; and

(i) the ISIN or Common Code number, and that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the ISIN or Common Code, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes.

Prior to the giving of any notice of redemption pursuant to Paragraph 8 of the Notes, the Issuer will deliver to the Trustee (a) an Officers’ Certificate of the Issuer stating that the Issuer is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to the right of the Issuer so to redeem have occurred and (b) an Opinion of Counsel qualified under the laws of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction to the effect that the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor has or will become obligated to pay such Additional Amounts as a result of a Change in Tax Law, and that the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor cannot avoid such obligation by taking reasonable measures available to it.

SECTION 3.5 Effect of Notice of Redemption. Once notice of redemption is given in accordance with Section 3.4, Notes called for redemption become due and payable on the Redemption Date and at the Redemption Price plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any. Upon surrender to the Trustee or Paying Agent, such Notes called for redemption shall be paid at the Redemption Price (which shall include accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any, to the Redemption Date), but (in the case of Definitive Notes) installments of interest, the maturity of which is on or prior to the Redemption Date, shall be payable to holders of record at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates.

SECTION 3.6 Deposit of Redemption Price. Prior to 10:00 p.m. London time on the Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee or its designated Paying Agent (which shall be the Principal Paying Agent unless otherwise notified to the Issuer by the Trustee) cash in euro sufficient to pay the Redemption Price plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any, of all Notes to be redeemed on that date. The Paying Agent (including the Principal Paying Agent) shall promptly return to the Issuer any cash in euro so deposited which is not required for that purpose upon the written request of the Issuer. The Issuer shall, prior to 10:00 p.m. London time on the second Business Day prior to the date on which the Principal Paying Agent receives payment, procure that the bank effecting payment confirms by SWIFT message to the Trustee that an irrevocable payment instruction has been given.

If the Issuer complies with the preceding paragraph, then, unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of such Redemption Price plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any, then interest on the Notes to be redeemed will cease to accrue on and after the applicable Redemption Date, whether or not such Notes are presented for payment. With respect to Definitive Notes, if a Definitive Note is redeemed on or after an interest Record Date but on or prior to the related interest payment date, then any accrued and unpaid interest, and Additional Amounts, if any, shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such Record Date. If any Note called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender for redemption because of the failure of the Issuer to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the Redemption Date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.1.

SECTION 3.7 Notes Redeemed in Part. Upon surrender and cancellation of a Definitive Note that is redeemed in part, the Issuer shall execute and upon receipt of a Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate for the holder of the Notes (at the Issuer’s expense) a new Definitive Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Definitive Note surrendered and canceled; provided, however, that each such Definitive Note shall be in a principal amount at maturity of €50,000 and any integral multiple of €1,000 in excess thereof. Upon surrender of a Global Note that is redeemed in part, the Paying Agent shall promptly forward such Global Note to the Trustee who shall make a notation on Schedule A thereof to reduce the principal amount of such Global Note to an amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Global Note surrendered; provided, however, that each such Global Note shall be in a principal amount at maturity of €50,000 and any integral multiple of €1,000 in excess thereof.

ARTICLE IV

COVENANTS

SECTION 4.1 Payment of Notes.(a) The Issuer shall pay the principal, premium, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes in the manner provided in such Notes and this Indenture. An installment of principal of or interest on the Notes shall be considered paid on the date it is due if the Trustee or Paying Agent (including the Principal Paying Agent) holds prior to 12:00 p.m. London time on the Business Day immediately preceding any interest payment date and the Maturity Date money deposited by the Issuer in immediately available, freely transferable, cleared funds and designated for, and sufficient to pay the installment in full and is not prohibited from paying such money to the holders of the Notes pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.

(b) The Issuer shall pay, to the extent such payments are lawful, interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and on overdue installments of interest and, on any Additional Amounts from time to time on demand at the rate borne by the Notes plus 1.0% per annum (except that overdue interest shall bear interest at the rate borne by the Notes until the expiry of any grace period, after which it shall bear interest at the rate borne by the Notes plus 1.0% per annum). Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

SECTION 4.2 Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Issuer shall maintain the office or agency (which office may be an office of the Trustee or an affiliate of the Trustee, Registrar or co-Registrar) required under Section 2.3 where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Issuer shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the address of the Trustee set forth in Section 12.1. The Issuer hereby initially designates the office of The Bank of New York Mellon, acting through its London Branch, as its office or agency at Xxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx, X00 0XX, Xxxxxxx as required under Section 2.3 hereof. The Issuer has appointed The Bank of New York Mellon (Luxembourg) S.A., as an additional Paying and Transfer Agent.

SECTION 4.3 Limitation on Indebtedness. (b) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, Incur any Indebtedness; provided, however, that the Issuer and any Subsidiary Guarantor may Incur Indebtedness if on the date thereof the Consolidated Coverage Ratio for the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries is at least 2.00 to 1.00.

(b) Section 4.3(a) will not prohibit the Incurrence of the following Indebtedness:

(1)

Indebtedness of the Issuer and of its Restricted Subsidiaries Incurred under one or more Credit Facilities in an aggregate principal amount up to €150 million at any time outstanding;

(2)

Indebtedness of the Issuer owing to and held by any Restricted Subsidiary or Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary owing to and held by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that

(a)

if the Issuer is the obligor on such Indebtedness, such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all obligations with respect to the Notes;

(b)

if a Subsidiary Guarantor is the obligor on such Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or another Subsidiary Guarantor), such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all obligations with respect to the Notes and the relevant Subsidiary Guarantee; and

(c)

(i)

any subsequent issuance or transfer of Capital Stock or any other event which results in any such Indebtedness being beneficially held by a Person other than the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary; and

(ii)

any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person other than the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer

shall be deemed, in each case, to constitute an Incurrence of such Indebtedness by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be;

(3)

Indebtedness represented by Guarantees of the Notes;

(4)

Indebtedness represented by (a) the Notes issued on the Issue Date, (b) any Indebtedness (other than the Indebtedness described in clauses (1), (2), (3), (6), (7), (8), (9) and (10) of this Section 4.3(b)) outstanding on the Issue Date and (c) any Refinancing Indebtedness Incurred in respect of any Indebtedness described in this clause (4) or clause (5) or Incurred pursuant to Section 4.3(a);

(5)

Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary Incurred and outstanding on the date on which such Restricted Subsidiary was acquired by the Issuer (other than Indebtedness Incurred (a) to provide all or any portion of the funds utilized to consummate the transaction or series of related transactions pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary became a Restricted Subsidiary or was otherwise acquired by the Issuer or (b) otherwise in connection with, or in contemplation of, such acquisition); provided, however, that at the time such Restricted Subsidiary is acquired by the Issuer, the Issuer would have been able to Incur €1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.3(a) after giving effect to such acquisition and the Incurrence of such Indebtedness pursuant to this clause (5);

(6)

Indebtedness under Currency Agreements and Interest Rate Agreements; provided that in the case of Currency Agreements, such Currency Agreements are related to business transactions of the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries entered into in the ordinary course of business and not for speculative purposes and in the case of Currency Agreements and Interest Rate Agreements, such Currency Agreements and Interest Rate Agreements are entered into for bona fide hedging purposes of the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors or senior management of the Issuer);

(7)

Indebtedness of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries represented by Capitalized Lease Obligations, mortgage financings or purchase money obligations with respect to assets other than Capital Stock or other Investments, in each case incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or cost of construction or improvements of property used in the business of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed €50 million at any time outstanding;

(8)

(10)

Indebtedness arising from the honoring by a bank or other financial institution of a check, draft or similar instrument (except in the case of daylight overdrafts) drawn against insufficient funds in the ordinary course of business, provided, however, that such Indebtedness is extinguished within five Business Days of Incurrence; and

(11)

in addition to the items referred to in clauses (1) through (10) of this Section 4.3(b), Indebtedness of the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries in an aggregate outstanding principal amount which, when taken together with the principal amount of all other Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to this clause (11) and then outstanding, will not exceed €100 million at any time outstanding.

(c) For purposes of determining compliance with, and the outstanding principal amount of any particular Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to and in compliance with, this Section 4.3:

(1)

in the event that Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Indebtedness described in Section 4.3(a) and 4.3(b), the Issuer, in its sole discretion, will classify such item of Indebtedness on the date of Incurrence, and may from time to time reclassify such item of Indebtedness, and only be required to include the amount and type of such Indebtedness in one of such clauses;

(2)

all Indebtedness outstanding on the Issue Date under any Credit Facility (other than the Czech Working Capital Facility) shall be deemed initially Incurred on the Issue Date under Section 4.3(b)(1) and not under Section 4.3(a) or Section 4.3(b)(4)(b), and may not be reclassified pursuant to Section 4.3(c)(1); and

(3)

the amount of Indebtedness issued at a price that is less than the principal amount thereof will be equal to the amount of the liability in respect thereof determined in accordance with GAAP.

Accrual of interest, accrual of dividends, the accretion of accreted value, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness and the payment of dividends in the form of additional shares of Preferred Stock will not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this Section 4.3. The amount of any Indebtedness outstanding as of any date shall be (i) the accreted value of the Indebtedness in the case of any Indebtedness issued with original issue discount and (ii) the principal amount or liquidation preference thereof, together with any interest thereon that is more than 30 days past due, in the case of any other Indebtedness.

In addition, the Issuer will not permit any of its Unrestricted Subsidiaries to Incur any Indebtedness or issue any shares of Disqualified Stock, other than Non-Recourse Debt. If at any time an Unrestricted Subsidiary becomes a Restricted Subsidiary, any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary shall be deemed to be Incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer as of such date (and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be Incurred as of such date under this Section 4.3, the Issuer shall be in Default hereunder).

For purposes of determining compliance with any euro-denominated restriction on the Incurrence of Indebtedness, the euro-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a currency other than the euro shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was Incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit Indebtedness; provided that if such Indebtedness is Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a currency other than the euro, and such refinancing would cause the applicable euro-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such euro-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such Refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.3, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Issuer may Incur pursuant to this Section 4.3 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies. The principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if Incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Refinancing Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

SECTION 4.4 Limitation on Restricted Payments.(c) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, to:

(1)

declare or pay any dividend or make any distribution (including any payment in connection with any merger, amalgamation or consolidation involving the Issuer or any Subsidiary of the Issuer) on or in respect of its Capital Stock except:

(a)

dividends or distributions payable solely in Capital Stock of the Issuer (other than Disqualified Stock) or in options or warrants or other rights to purchase such Capital Stock of the Issuer; and

(b)

(2)

(3)

purchase, repurchase, prepay, repay, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value, prior to scheduled maturity, scheduled repayment or scheduled sinking fund payment, any Subordinated Obligations or Guarantor Subordinated Obligations (other than the purchase, repurchase, prepayment or repayment redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement of Subordinated Obligations purchased in anticipation of satisfying a sinking fund obligation, principal installment or final maturity, in each case due within one year of the date of purchase, repurchase or acquisition); or

(4) make any Restricted Investment in any Person;

(any such dividend, distribution, purchase, redemption, repurchase, defeasance, other acquisition, retirement or Restricted Investment referred to in clauses (1) through (4) (inclusive) of this Section 4.4(a) shall be referred to herein as a “Restricted Payment”), if at the time the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary makes such Restricted Payment:

(a)

a Default shall have occurred and be continuing (or would result therefrom); or

(b)

the Issuer is not able to Incur an additional €1.00 of Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.3(a) after giving effect, on a pro forma basis, to such Restricted Payment; or

(c)

the aggregate amount of such Restricted Payment and all other Restricted Payments declared or made subsequent to the Issue Date would exceed the sum of:

(i)

(a) 50% of Consolidated Net Income for the period (treated as one accounting period) from the Issue Date to the end of the most recent fiscal quarter ending prior to the date of such Restricted Payment for which financial statements are in existence (or, in the event Consolidated Net Income for such period is a deficit then, minus 100% of such deficit);

(ii)

100% of the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds received by the Issuer from the issue or sale of its Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) or other capital contributions subsequent to the Issue Date (other than Net Cash Proceeds received from an issuance or sale of such Capital Stock to a Subsidiary of the Issuer or an employee stock ownership plan, option plan or similar trust established by the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries to the extent such sale to an employee stock ownership plan, option plan or similar trust is financed by loans from or guaranteed by the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries unless such loans have been repaid with cash on or prior to the date of determination);

(iii)

the amount by which Indebtedness of the Issuer is reduced on the Issuer’s balance sheet upon the conversion or exchange (other than by a Subsidiary of the Issuer) subsequent to the Issue Date of any Indebtedness of the Issuer convertible or exchangeable for Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Issuer (less the amount of any cash, or other property, distributed by the Issuer upon such conversion or exchange); and

(iv)

the amount equal to the net reduction in Restricted Investments made after the Issue Date by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in any Person resulting from:

(A)

repurchases or redemptions of such Restricted Investments by such Person, proceeds realized upon the sale of such Restricted Investment to an unaffiliated purchaser, repayments of loans or advances or other transfers of assets (including by way of dividend or distribution) by such Person to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer not to exceed, in the case of any Person, the amount of Restricted Investments previously made by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary in such Person; or

(B)

the redesignation of Unrestricted Subsidiaries as Restricted Subsidiaries (valued in each case as provided in the definition of “Investment”) not to exceed, in the case of any Unrestricted Subsidiary, the amount of Investments previously made by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary in such Unrestricted Subsidiary,

which amount in each case under this clause (iv) was included in the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payments; provided, however, that no amount will be included under this clause (iv) to the extent it is already included in Consolidated Net Income.

(b) The provisions of Section 4.4(a) will not prohibit:

(1)

any purchase or redemption of Capital Stock or Subordinated Obligations of the Issuer made by exchange for, or out of the proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale of, Capital Stock of the Issuer (other than Disqualified Stock and other than Capital Stock issued or sold to a Subsidiary or an employee stock ownership plan or similar trust to the extent such sale to an employee stock ownership plan or similar trust is financed by loans from or guaranteed by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary unless such loans have been repaid with cash on or prior to the date of determination); provided, however, that (a) such purchase or redemption will be excluded in subsequent calculations of the amount of Restricted Payments and (b) the Net Cash Proceeds from such sale will be excluded from Section 4.4(a)(4)(c)(ii);

(2)

any purchase or redemption of Subordinated Obligations of the Issuer made by exchange for, or out of the proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale of, Subordinated Obligations of the Issuer or any purchase or redemption of Guarantor Subordinated Obligations made by exchange for, or out of proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale of Guarantor Subordinated Obligations that, in each case, is permitted to be Incurred pursuant to Section 4.3 above and that, in each case, qualifies as Refinancing Indebtedness; provided, however, that such purchase or redemption will be excluded in subsequent calculations of the amount of Restricted Payments;

(3)

so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any purchase or redemption of Subordinated Obligations from Net Available Cash to the extent permitted under Section 4.9 below; provided, however, that such purchase or redemption will be excluded in subsequent calculations of the amount of Restricted Payments;

(4)

dividends paid within 60 days after the date of declaration if at such date of declaration such dividends would have been permitted under this Section 4.4; provided, however, that such dividends will be included in subsequent calculations of the amount of Restricted Payments;

(5)

so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the purchase, redemption or other acquisition, cancellation or retirement for value of Capital Stock, or options, warrants, equity appreciation rights or other rights to purchase or acquire Capital Stock of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer or any parent of the Issuer held by any existing or former employees or management of the Issuer or any Subsidiary of the Issuer or their assigns, estates or heirs, in each case in connection with the repurchase provisions under employee stock option or stock purchase agreements or other agreements to compensate management employees; provided that such redemptions or repurchases pursuant to this clause will not exceed €3 million in the aggregate during any calendar year and €10 million in the aggregate for all such redemptions and repurchases; provided, however, that the amount of any such repurchase or redemption will be included in subsequent calculations of the amount of Restricted Payments;

(6)

repurchases of Capital Stock deemed to occur upon the exercise of stock options, warrants or other convertible securities if such Capital Stock represents a portion of the exercise price thereof or withholding tax thereon; provided, however, that such repurchases will be excluded from subsequent calculations of the amount of Restricted Payments;

(7)

so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (or would result therefrom), the declaration and payment by the Issuer of dividends or distributions on the common stock of the Issuer in an amount not to exceed in any fiscal year 6% of Net Cash Proceeds received by the Issuer from any Public Equity Offering; and

(8)

so long as no Default has occurred or is continuing or would be caused thereby, other Restricted Payments in an aggregate amount not to exceed €40 million since the date of this Indenture; provided, however, that such Restricted Payments will be included in subsequent calculations of the amount of Restricted Payments.

The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) shall be the fair market value on the date of such Restricted Payment of the asset(s) or securities proposed to be paid, transferred or issued by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to such Restricted Payment. The fair market value of any cash Restricted Payment shall be its face amount and any non-cash Restricted Payment shall be determined conclusively by the Board of Directors acting in good faith, such determination to be based upon a written opinion of an independent and reputable accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of internationally recognized standing if the fair market value of such Restricted Payment is estimated to exceed €75 million.

SECTION 4.5 Corporate Existence. Except as otherwise permitted by Section 4.18 and Article V hereof, the Issuer and each of the Subsidiary Guarantors shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its respective corporate existence and the corporate, partnership, limited liability or other existence of each of the Issuer’s Restricted Subsidiaries in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of each such Person and the rights (charter and statutory) of the Issuer’s and each of the other Subsidiary Guarantors’ Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be required to preserve any such right, or the corporate, partnership, limited liability or other existence of any of the Issuer’s Restricted Subsidiaries, if the Board of Directors shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Issuer and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

SECTION 4.6 Limitation on Liens. The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur or suffer to exist any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) upon any of its property or assets (including Capital Stock of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer), whether owned on the date of this Indenture or acquired after that date, which Lien is securing any Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary unless contemporaneously with the Incurrence of the Liens effective provision is made to secure the Indebtedness due under this Indenture and the Notes or, in respect of Liens on any Restricted Subsidiary’s property or assets, any Subsidiary Guarantee of such Restricted Subsidiary, equally and ratably with (or prior to in the case of Liens with respect to Subordinated Obligations or Guarantor Subordinated Obligations, as the case may be) the Indebtedness secured by such Lien for so long as such Indebtedness is so secured.

SECTION 4.7 Waiver of Stay, Extension or Usury Laws. The Issuer covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law or any usury law or other law that would prohibit or forgive the Issuer from paying all or any portion of the principal of and/or interest on the Notes as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture, and (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) the Issuer hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

SECTION 4.8 Limitation on Restrictions on Distributions from Restricted Subsidiaries.

(a) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, create or otherwise cause or permit to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or consensual restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to:

(1)

pay dividends or make any other distributions on its Capital Stock or pay any Indebtedness or other obligations owed to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary;

(iii)

any encumbrance or restriction with respect to a Restricted Subsidiary pursuant to an agreement effecting a refunding, replacement or refinancing of Indebtedness referred to in clause (i) or (ii) of this paragraph or this clause (iii) or contained in any amendment to an agreement relating to any Indebtedness referred to in clause (i) or (ii) of this paragraph or this clause (iii); provided, however, that any such restrictions contained in any such amendments or any agreement effecting refunding, replacement or refinancing referred to above, are no more restrictive than the encumbrances and restrictions contained in the agreements relating to the Indebtedness referred to in clauses (i) or (ii) of this paragraph in existence on the Issue Date or the date such Restricted Subsidiary became a Restricted Subsidiary, whichever is applicable;

(iv)

in the case of clause (3) of Section 4.8(a) above, any encumbrance or restriction:

(b)

contained in mortgages, pledges or other security agreements permitted under this Indenture securing Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary to the extent such encumbrances or restrictions restrict the transfer of the property subject to such mortgages, pledges or other security agreements; or

(vii)

encumbrances or restrictions arising or existing by reason of applicable law or any applicable rule, regulation or order, including applicable corporate law restrictions on the payment of dividends.

SECTION 4.9 Limitation on Sales of Assets and Subsidiary Stock. The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any Asset Disposition unless:

(1)

the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at the time of such Asset Disposition at least equal to the fair market value, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors (including as to the value of all non-cash consideration), of the shares and assets subject to such Asset Disposition;

(2)

at least 75% of the consideration from such Asset Disposition received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents or Additional Assets or a combination thereof; and

(3)

an amount equal to 100% of the Net Available Cash from such Asset Disposition is applied by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be:

(a)

first, to the extent the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, elects (or is required by the terms of any Indebtedness), to prepay, repay or purchase Indebtedness of the Issuer (other than Disqualified Stock or Subordinated Obligations) or Indebtedness (other than any Disqualified or Preferred Stock or Guarantor Subordinated Obligations of a Subsidiary Guarantor) of a Subsidiary Guarantor (in each case other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer) within 360 days from the later of the date of such Asset Disposition or the receipt of such Net Available Cash; provided, however, that, in connection with any prepayment, repayment or purchase of Indebtedness pursuant to this clause (a), the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary will retire such Indebtedness and will cause the related commitment (if any) to be permanently reduced in an amount equal to the principal amount so prepaid, repaid or purchased; and

(b)

second, to the extent the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary elects, to invest in Additional Assets within 360 days from the later of the date of such Asset Disposition or the receipt of such Net Available Cash;

provided pending the final application of any such Net Available Cash in accordance with clause (a) or clause (b) above, the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries may temporarily reduce Indebtedness or otherwise invest in such Net Available Cash in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture.

Any Net Available Cash from Asset Dispositions that is not applied or invested as provided in the preceding paragraph will be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds.” On the 361st day after an Asset Disposition, if the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds €15 million, the Issuer will be required to make an offer (“Asset Disposition Offer”) to all holders of Notes and to the extent required by the terms of other Pari Passu Indebtedness, to all holders of other Pari Passu Indebtedness outstanding with similar provisions requiring the Issuer to make an offer to purchase such Pari Passu Indebtedness with the proceeds from any Asset Disposition (“Pari Passu Notes”), to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes and any such Pari Passu Notes to which the Asset Disposition Offer applies that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds, at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes and Pari Passu Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, to the date of purchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture or the agreements governing the Pari Passu Notes, as applicable, in denominations of €50,000 and any integral multiple of €1,000 in excess thereof in the case of the Notes. To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes and Pari Passu Notes so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to an Asset Disposition Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Issuer may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for general corporate purposes, subject to the other covenants contained in this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by holders thereof and other Pari Passu Notes surrendered by holders or lenders, collectively, exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes and Pari Passu Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of tendered Notes and Pari Passu Notes. Upon completion of such Asset Disposition Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. The Trustee shall have no liability in relation to selections made by it pursuant to this Section 4.9.

Notice of the Asset Disposition Offer will be given in accordance with this Indenture. The Asset Disposition Offer will remain open for a period of 20 Business Days following its commencement, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Asset Disposition Offer Period”). No later than five Business Days after the termination of the Asset Disposition Offer Period (the “Asset Disposition Purchase Date”), the Issuer will purchase the principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Notes required to be purchased pursuant to this Section 4.9 (the “Asset Disposition Offer Amount”) or, if less than the Asset Disposition Offer Amount has been so validly tendered, all Notes and Pari Passu Notes validly tendered in response to the Asset Disposition Offer.

If the Asset Disposition Purchase Date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest will be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest will be payable to holders of the Notes who tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Disposition Offer.

On or before the Asset Disposition Purchase Date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Asset Disposition Offer Amount of Notes and Pari Passu Notes or portions of Notes and Pari Passu Notes so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Asset Disposition Offer, or if less than the Asset Disposition Offer Amount has been validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, all Notes and Pari Passu Notes so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, in case of the Notes in minimum denominations of €50,000 and any integral multiples of €1,000 in excess thereof. The Issuer will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Issuer in accordance with the terms of this Section 4.9 and, in addition, the Issuer will deliver all certificates and notes required, if any, by the agreements governing the Pari Passu Notes. The Issuer or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, will promptly (but in any case not later than five Business Days after termination of the Asset Disposition Offer Period) mail or deliver to each tendering holder of Notes or holder or lender of Pari Passu Notes, as the case may be, an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes or Pari Passu Notes so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn by such holder or lender, as the case may be, and accepted by the Issuer for purchase, and the Issuer will promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon delivery of an Officers’ Certificate from the Issuer will authenticate and mail or deliver such new Note to such holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered; provided that each such new Note will be in a principal amount of €50,000 and any integral multiple of €1,000 in excess thereof. In addition, the Issuer will take any and all other actions required by the agreements governing the Pari Passu Notes. Any Note not so accepted will be promptly mailed or delivered by the Issuer to the holder thereof. The Issuer will publicly announce the results of the Asset Disposition Offer on the Asset Disposition Purchase Date.

For the purposes of this Section 4.9, the following will be deemed to be cash:

(1)

the assumption by the transferee of Indebtedness (other than Subordinated Obligations or Disqualified Stock) of the Issuer or Indebtedness (other than Disqualified Stock or Guarantor Subordinated Obligations) of any Subsidiary Guarantor and the release of the Issuer or such Subsidiary Guarantors from all liability on such Indebtedness in connection with such Asset Disposition (in which case the Issuer will, without further action, be deemed to have applied such deemed cash to Indebtedness in accordance with clause (a) above); and

(2)

securities, notes or other obligations received by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary from the transferee that are converted within 90 days by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash.

The Issuer will comply, to the extent applicable, with any securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to this Indenture. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with provisions of this Section 4.9, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Indenture by virtue of any conflict.

SECTION 4.10 Limitation on Affiliate Transactions. (a) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, enter into or conduct any transaction (including the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of any property or the rendering of any service) with any Affiliate of the Issuer (an “Affiliate Transaction”) unless:

(1)

the terms of such Affiliate Transaction are no less favorable to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that could be obtained in a comparable transaction at the time of such transaction in arm’s length dealings with a Person who is not such an Affiliate;

(2)

in the event such Affiliate Transaction involves an aggregate amount in excess of €20 million, the terms of such transaction have been approved by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors and by a majority of the members of such board having no personal stake in such transaction, if any (and such majority or majorities, as the case may be, determines that such Affiliate Transaction satisfies the criteria in clause (1) above); and

(3)

in the event such Affiliate Transaction involves an aggregate amount in excess of €75 million, the Issuer has received a written opinion from an independent investment banking firm of internationally recognized standing that such Affiliate Transaction is not materially less favorable than those that might reasonably have been obtained in a comparable transaction at such time on an arms-length basis from a Person that is not an Affiliate.

The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, enter into or conduct any transaction (including the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of any property or the rendering of any service) with any Affiliate of a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer (a “Restricted Subsidiary Affiliate Transaction”) unless:

(1)

the terms of such Restricted Subsidiary Affiliate Transaction are no less favorable to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that could be obtained in a comparable transaction at the time of such transaction in arm’s length dealings with a Person who is not such an Affiliate; and

(2)

in the event such Restricted Subsidiary Affiliate Transaction involves an aggregate amount in excess of €5 million, the terms of such transaction have been approved by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors and by a majority of the members of such board having no personal stake in such transaction, if any (and such majority or majorities, as the case may be, determines that such Restricted Subsidiary Affiliate Transaction satisfies the criteria in clause (1) above);

(b) Section 4.10(a) shall not apply to:

(1)

any Restricted Payment (other than a Restricted Investment) permitted to be made pursuant to Section 4.4 hereof;

(2)

SECTION 4.13 Limitation on Lines of Business. The Issuer will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, engage in any business other than a Permitted Business.

Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuer will provide notice (the “Change of Control Offer”) in accordance with the procedures described under Section 12.1 stating:

(1)

that a Change of Control Triggering Event has occurred and that holders have the right to require the Issuer to purchase such holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount of such Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, and premium, if any, to the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment”);

(2)

the repurchase date (which shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed) (the “Change of Control Payment Date”);

(3)

the circumstances and relevant facts regarding the Change of Control; and

(4)

the procedures determined by the Issuer, consistent with this Indenture, that a holder of the Notes must follow in order to have its Notes repurchased.

(2)

If the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest will be payable to holders of the Notes who tender pursuant to the Change of Control Offer.

The provisions of this Section 4.14 will be applicable whether or not any other provisions of this Indenture are applicable.

The Issuer will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event if another 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 Issuer and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer.

The Issuer will comply, to the extent applicable, with any applicable securities laws or regulations, including any securities or other applicable laws of Bermuda and the requirements of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange or any other securities exchange on which the Notes are listed in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to this Section 4.14. To the extent that the provisions of any securities or other applicable laws or regulations conflict with provisions of this Indenture, the Issuer will comply with the applicable laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations described in this Indenture by virtue of the conflict.

SECTION 4.15 Additional Amounts. At least 30 days prior to each date on which payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes or any Subsidiary Guarantee is due and payable (unless such obligation to pay Additional Amounts arises shortly before or at some time after the 30th day prior to such date, in which case it shall be as soon as practicable after such obligation arises), if the Payor will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts pursuant to Paragraph 2 of the Notes (the “Additional Amounts”) with respect to any such payment, the Payor will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that such Additional Amounts will be payable, the amounts so payable and will set forth such other information necessary to enable the Trustee or the Principal Paying Agent, as the case may be, to pay such Additional Amounts to the holders of the Notes on the payment date. Each such Officers’ Certificate shall be relied upon until the receipt of a further Officers’ Certificate addressing such matters. The Payor will pay to the Trustee, or the Principal Paying Agent, as the case may be, such Additional Amounts and, if paid to a Paying Agent other than the Trustee, shall provide the Trustee with documentation evidencing the payment of such Additional Amounts. Copies of such documentation shall be made available to the holders of the Notes upon request.

The Payor will (i) make any required withholding or deduction and (ii) remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction in accordance with applicable law. The Payor will use all reasonable efforts to obtain certified copies of tax receipts evidencing the payment of any Taxes so deducted or withheld from each Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction imposing such Taxes and will provide such certified copy to each holder of a Note. The Payor will attach to each certified copy a certificate stating (x) that the amount of withholding Taxes evidenced by the certified copy was paid in connection with payments in respect of the principal amount of Notes then outstanding and (y) the amount of such withholding Taxes paid per €1,000 principal amount of the Notes.

The foregoing obligations of this Section 4.15 will survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of this Indenture and will apply with appropriate changes to any jurisdiction in which any successor Person to a Payor is organized or any political subdivision or taxing authority or agency thereof or therein.

Whenever in this Indenture or in the Notes there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, if any, or any other amount payable under or with respect to any Note and the Subsidiary Guarantees, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof.

SECTION 4.16 Payment of Non-Income Taxes and Similar Charges. The Payor will pay any present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes, or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise in any jurisdiction from the execution, delivery or registration of the Notes or any other document or instrument referred to therein (other than a transfer of the Notes), or the receipt of any payments with respect to the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantees, excluding any such taxes, charges or similar levies imposed by any jurisdiction other than a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, other than those resulting from, or required to be paid in connection with, the enforcement of the Notes, the Subsidiary Guarantees or any other such document or instrument following the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Notes.

SECTION 4.17 Compliance Certificate; Notice of Default. The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year an Officers’ Certificate stating (a) that in the course of the performance by the signers of their duties as Officers of the Issuer they would normally have knowledge of any Default and whether or not the signers know of any Default that occurred during such period. If they do, the certificate shall describe the Default, its status and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto and (b) that no recording, filing, re-recording or re-filing of this Indenture and the Security Documents is necessary to maintain the security interest intended to be created thereby for the benefit of the holders of the Notes.

Upon becoming aware of, and as of such time that the Issuer should reasonably have become aware of, a Default, the Issuer also shall deliver to the Trustee within five Business Days of the occurrence of such Default, written notice of such events which would constitute a Default, their status and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take in respect thereof.

SECTION 4.18 Merger, Amalgamation and Consolidation. (a) The Issuer will not consolidate with, amalgamate or merge with or into, or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all its assets to, any Person, unless:

(1)

the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the “Successor Company”) will be a corporation or limited liability company organized and existing under the laws of Bermuda, any member state of the European Union that was a member of the European Union as of the Issue Date, or of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia and the Successor Company (if not the Issuer) will expressly assume, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, all the obligations of the Issuer under the Notes and this Indenture;

(2)

immediately after giving effect to such transaction (and treating any Indebtedness that becomes an obligation of the Successor Company or any Subsidiary of the Successor Company as a result of such transaction as having been Incurred by the Successor Company or such Subsidiary at the time of such transaction), no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

(3)

immediately after giving effect to such transaction, the Successor Company would be able to Incur at least an additional €1.00 of Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.3(a); and

(4)

For purposes of this Section 4.18, the sale, lease, conveyance, assignment, transfer, or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of one or more Subsidiaries of the Issuer, which properties and assets, if held by the Issuer instead of such Subsidiaries, would constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Issuer on a consolidated basis, shall be deemed to be the transfer of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Issuer.

(b) The Successor Company will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Issuer under this Indenture, but, in the case of a lease of all or substantially all its assets, the Issuer will not be released from the obligation to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes.

(d) In addition, the Issuer will not permit any Subsidiary Guarantor to consolidate with, amalgamate or merge with or into any Person (other than another Subsidiary Guarantor), or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets in one or a series of related transactions to, another Person (other than another Subsidiary Guarantor) whether or not affiliated with such Subsidiary Guarantor unless:

(1) (a) the resulting, surviving or transferee Person will be a corporation or a limited liability company organized and existing under the laws of Bermuda, any member state of the European Union that was a member of the European Union as of the Issue Date, or the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia and such Person (if not the Subsidiary Guarantor) will expressly assume all the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under the Notes and this Indenture, including the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor, pursuant to a supplemental indenture executed and delivered to the Trustee in a form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee; (b) immediately after giving effect to such transaction (and treating any Indebtedness that becomes an obligation of the resulting, surviving or transferee Person or any Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such transaction as having been Incurred by such Person or Restricted Subsidiary at the time of such transaction), no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and (c) the Issuer will have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, amalgamation, merger or transfer and such supplemental indenture (if any) comply with the indenture; or

(2) the transaction is made in compliance with Section 4.9 above.

The Person formed by or surviving such consolidation, amalgamation or merger (if other than the Subsidiary Guarantor) or the Person to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition shall have been made will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, such Subsidiary Guarantor under this Indenture, but in the case of a lease of all or substantially all of its assets, such Subsidiary Guarantor will not be released from its obligation under its Subsidiary Guarantee to pay the principal of, premium, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes in the event of a default as described above.

(1)

to the Issuer or a Subsidiary of the Issuer; or

(2)

in compliance with Section 4.9 hereof and, immediately after giving effect to such issuance or sale, such Restricted Subsidiary would continue to be a Restricted Subsidiary.

Notwithstanding this Section 4.20, the Issuer may sell all the Voting Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary as long as the Issuer complies with Section 4.9 hereof.

SECTION 4.21 Limitation on Guarantees of the Issuer and Subsidiary Guarantor Indebtedness.

ARTICLE VI

(5) failure by the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries to comply for 60 days after notice with any of its other agreements contained in this Indenture;

(6) default under any charge, mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Issuer or any of its Significant Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is Guaranteed by the Issuer or any of its Significant Subsidiaries), other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary, whether such Indebtedness or Guarantee now exists, or is created after the date of this Indenture, which default:

(a)

is caused by a failure to pay principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on such Indebtedness prior to the expiration of the grace period provided in such Indebtedness; or

(b)

results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its maturity;

and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a payment default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $25 million or more;

(7) (A) a court having jurisdiction in the premises enters a decree or order for (i) relief in respect of the Issuer or any Significant Group in an involuntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect and such decree or order shall remain unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive days, (ii) appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, examiner, administrator, sequestration or similar official for the Issuer or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or for all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Issuer and any of its Significant Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis and such decree or order shall remain unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive days or (iii) the winding up or liquidation of the affairs of the Issuer or any of its Significant Subsidiaries and, in each case, such decree or order shall remain unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive days; or (B) the Issuer, any of its Significant Subsidiaries or any Significant Group (i) commences a voluntary case (including taking any action for the purpose of winding up) under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, examination, court protection or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or consents to the entry of an order for relief in an involuntary case under any such law, (ii) consents to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, examiner, administrator, sequestration or similar official of the Issuer, any of its Significant Subsidiaries or any Significant Group or for all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Issuer, any of its Significant Subsidiaries or any Significant Group or (iii) effects any general assignment for the benefit of creditors;

(8) failure by the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary to pay final judgments aggregating in excess of €25 million (net of any amounts that a reputable and creditworthy insurance company has acknowledged liability for in writing), which judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed for a period of 60 days;

(9) except as permitted by this Indenture, a Subsidiary Guarantee is held in one or more judicial proceedings to be unenforceable or invalid or shall cease for any reason to be in full force and effect or any Subsidiary Guarantor, or any Person acting on behalf of the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor, shall deny or disaffirm its obligations under this Indenture or the Subsidiary Guarantee;

(10) any security interest under the Security Documents shall, at any time, cease to be in full force and effect (other than in accordance with the relevant Security Documents or this Indenture) for any reason other than satisfaction in full of all obligations of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries under this Indenture or the release of any such security interest in accordance with the Security Documents or this Indenture or any such security interest created thereunder or hereunder shall be declared invalid or unenforceable or the Issuer shall assent that any such security is invalid or unenforceable or any pledgor disaffirms its obligations under the Security Documents; or

(11) default under any other Indebtedness that is secured by the Collateral if such default results in the creditors under such Indebtedness commencing an enforcement action of their security rights over the Collateral.

However, a Default under clauses (4) and (5) of this Section 6.1 will not constitute an Event of Default until the Trustee or the holders of 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes notify the Issuer of the default and such default is not cured within the time specified by clauses (4) and (5) of this Section 6.1 after receipt of such notice.

SECTION 6.2 Acceleration. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in clause (7) of Section 6.1) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee by notice to the Issuer, or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes by notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, may, and the Trustee at the request of such holders of the Notes shall, declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal, premium and accrued and unpaid interest will be due and payable immediately. In the event of a declaration of acceleration of the Notes because an Event of Default described in clause (6) of Section 6.1 has occurred and is continuing, the declaration of acceleration of the Notes shall be automatically annulled if the event of default or payment default triggering such Event of Default pursuant to clause (6) of Section 6.1 shall be remedied or cured by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer or waived by the holders of the relevant Indebtedness within 20 days after the declaration of acceleration with respect thereto and if (x) the annulment of the acceleration of the Notes would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (y) all existing Events of Default, except non-payment of principal, premium or interest on the Notes that became due solely because of the acceleration of the Notes, have been cured or waived. If an Event of Default described in clause (7) of Section 6.1 occurs and is continuing, the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on all the Notes will become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any holders of the Notes.

SECTION 6.3 Other Remedies. If an Event of Default of which a Trust Officer of the Trustee has knowledge occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy by proceeding at law or in equity to collect the payment of principal of or, premium, if any, interest, and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture.

SECTION 6.4 The Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities. All rights of action and claims under this Indenture and under any Note Guarantee may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name and as Trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the properly incurred compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the holders of the Notes in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

SECTION 6.5 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes in Section 2.8, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the holders of the Notes is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent or subsequent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

SECTION 6.6 Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any holder of the Notes to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Section 6.6 or by law to the Trustee or to the holders of the Notes may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the holders of the Notes, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.

SECTION 6.7 Waiver of Past Defaults. Subject to Sections 2.10, 6.10 and 9.2, at any time after a declaration of acceleration with respect to the Notes as described in Section 6.2, the holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes by written notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, may waive all past defaults (except with respect to nonpayment of principal, premium, interest or Additional Amounts) and rescind any such declaration of acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences if (i) the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (ii) all existing Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of or, premium, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived. Such waiver shall not excuse a continuing Event of Default in the payment of interest, premium, if any, principal or Additional Amounts, if any, on such Note held by a non-consenting holder of the Notes, or in respect of a covenant or a provision which cannot be amended or modified without the consent of all holders of the Notes. The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the requisite percentage of holders of the Notes has consented to such waiver and attaching copies of such consents. When a Default or Event of Default is waived, it is cured and ceases.

SECTION 6.8 Control by Majority. Subject to Section 2.10, the holders of the Notes of not less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. Subject to Section 7.1, however, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with any law or this Indenture or that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of another holder of the Notes, or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability; provided, however, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction.

SECTION 6.9 Limitation on Suits. Subject to Section 6.10 of this Indenture relating to the duties of the Trustee, if an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under this Indenture at the request or direction of any of holders unless such holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security against any loss, liability or expense satisfactory to the Trustee. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest when due, no holder of the Notes may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless:

(1) such holder has previously given the Trustee notice that an Event of Default is continuing;

(2) holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes have requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

(3) such holders have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense;

(4) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt of the request and the offer of satisfactory security or indemnity; and

(5) the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction that, in the opinion of the Trustee, is inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period.

SECTION 6.10 Rights of holders of the Notes to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture (including, without limitation, Section 8.9 hereof), the right of any holder of the Notes to receive payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest, and Additional Amounts, if any, on a Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Note, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such holder of the Notes.

SECTION 6.11 Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default in payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest and Additional Amounts, if any, specified in clause (1) or clause (2) of Section 6.1 occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other obligor on the Notes for the whole amount of principal and accrued interest remaining unpaid, together with interest on overdue principal and, to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest on overdue installments of interest, in each case at the rate per annum borne by the Notes and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the properly incurred compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.6.

SECTION 6.12 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the properly incurred compensation, expenses, disbursements, advances or any other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.6, its agents, appointees and counsel, accountants and experts) and the holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relating to the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, their creditors or their property or any other obligor on the Notes, its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same, and any Custodian in any such judicial proceedings is hereby authorized by each holder of the Notes to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the holders of the Notes, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the properly incurred compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agent and appointee and counsel, and any other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.6. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and appointees and counsel, and any other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.6 hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties which the holders of the Notes may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise.

SECTION 6.13 Priorities. If the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article VI, it shall pay out the money or property in the following order:

First: to the Trustee, the Agents and their agents and appointees and attorneys for amounts due under Section 7.6, including (but not limited to) payment of all compensation, fees, expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection;

Second: to holders of the Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, interest, and Additional Amounts, if any, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, respectively; and

Third: to the Issuer or any other obligor on the Notes, as their interests may appear, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

The Trustee, upon prior notice to the Issuer, may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to holders of the Notes pursuant to this Section 6.13; provided that the failure to give any such notice shall not affect the establishment of such record date or payment date for holders of the Notes pursuant to this Section 6.13.

SECTION 6.14 Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any holder of any Note has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such holder of the Notes, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Issuer, each Subsidiary Guarantor, the Trustee and the holders of the Notes shall be restored by the Issuer severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the holders of the Notes shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

SECTION 6.15 Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.15 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a holder of the Notes pursuant to Section 6.10, or a suit by a holder or holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes.

SECTION 6.16 Notices of Default. If a Default occurs and is continuing and is actually known to a Trust Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee must mail to each holder of the Notes notice of the Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest, if any, on any Note, the Trustee may withhold notice if and so long as the Trustee in good faith determines that withholding notice is in the interests of holders of the Notes.

ARTICLE VII

TRUSTEE

SECTION 7.1 Duties of Trustee.

(a) If an Event of Default actually known to a Trust Officer of the Trustee has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care, skill and diligence in its exercise as a reasonably prudent person would exercise or use in the conduct of his or her own affairs. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or the Indenture or that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any holder of the Notes or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability.

(b) (1) The Trustee and the Agents will perform only those duties as are specifically set forth herein and no others and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee or the Agents.

(2) In the absence of bad faith on their part, the Trustee and the Agents may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions and such other documents delivered to them and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. However, in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are required to be furnished to the Trustee or the Agents, the Trustee or the Agents, as applicable, shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

(c) The Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that:

(1) this Subsection (c) does not limit the effect of Subsection (b) of this Section 7.1;

(2) neither the Trustee nor Agent shall be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer of such Trustee or Agent, unless it is proved that the Trustee or such Agent was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

(3) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.8.

(d) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee or any Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or to take or omit to take any action under this Indenture or take any action at the request or direction of holders of the Notes if it does not receive such funds or an indemnity satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against such risk, liability, loss, fee or expense which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.

(e) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to Subsections (a), (b), (c) and (d) of this Section 7.1.

(f) Neither the Trustee nor the Agents shall be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee and any Agent may agree in writing with the Issuer. Money held in trust by the Trustee or any Agent need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

(g) Any provision hereof relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 7.1.

(h) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its rights to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by the Trustee in each of its capacities in which it may serve, and to each Agent, Custodian and other person employed to act hereunder.

SECTION 7.2 Rights of Trustee. Subject to Section 7.1:

(a) The Trustee and each Agent may rely conclusively on and shall be protected from acting or refraining from acting in good faith based upon any document believed by them to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper person. Neither the Trustee nor any Agent shall be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent order, approval, appraisal, bond, debenture, note, coupon, security or other paper or document, but the Trustee or its Agent, as the case may be, in its discretion, may make further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters stated in such document and if the Trustee or its Agent as the case may be, shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, at reasonable times during normal business hours, personally or by agent or attorney. The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice or any knowledge of any matter (including without limitation Defaults or Events of Default) unless a Trust Officer has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice thereof is received by the Trustee, (attention: Corporate Trust Services) and such notice clearly references the Notes, the Issuer or this Indenture.

(b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require (at the Issuer’s expense) an Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both, which shall conform to the provisions of Sections 12.2 and 12.3. Neither the Trustee nor any Agent shall be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such certificate or opinion.

(c) The Trustee and any Agent may act through their attorneys and agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent (other than an agent who is an employee of the Trustee or such Agent) appointed with due care.

(d) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it reasonably believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture; provided, however, that the Trustee’s conduct does not constitute willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.

(e) The Trustee or any Agent may consult with counsel of its selection and the advice or opinion of such counsel as to matters of law shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.

(f) The Trustee may act and rely and shall be protected in acting and relying in good faith on the opinion or advice of or information obtained from any accountant, appraiser, agents or other expert or adviser, whether retained or employed by the Issuer or by the Trustee, in relation to any matter arising in the administration of the trusts hereof provided that selection of such accountant, appraiser, agent or other expert or adviser, has been made in good faith by the Trustee.

(g) Prior to taking any action under this Indenture, the Trustee will be entitled to indemnification or security from the holders of the Notes satisfactory to it against any loss, liability and expense caused by taking or not taking such action.

(h) The permissive right of the Trustee to take the actions permitted by this Indenture will not be construed as a duty to do so.

(i) In no event, shall the Trustee be liable for any Losses arising to it from receiving any data from the Issuer, or its Authorized Person via any non-secure method of transmission or communication, such as, but without limitation, by facsimile or email.

(j) The Issuer accepts that some methods of communication are not secure, and the Trustee shall incur no liability for receiving Instructions via any such non-secure method. The Trustee is authorized to comply with and rely upon any such notice, Instructions or other communications believed by it to have been sent by an Authorized Person. The Issuer shall use all reasonable endeavors to ensure that Instructions transmitted to the Trustee pursuant to this Indenture are completed and correct. Any Instructions shall be conclusively deemed to be valid instructions from the Issuer to the Trustee for the purposes of this Indenture.

(k) In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of, or caused by, any change in applicable law, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God; it being understood that the Trustee shall use reasonable efforts that are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.

(l) Except with respect to Section 4.01, the Trustee shall have no duty to inquire as to the performance of the Issuer with respect to the covenants contained in Article 4.

SECTION 7.3 Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee or any Agent in its respective individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer, its Subsidiaries, or their respective Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee or an Agent.

SECTION 7.4 Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee shall not be responsible for and make no representation as to the validity, effectiveness, correctness or adequacy of this Indenture, the offering materials related to this Indenture or the Notes; it shall not be accountable for the Issuer’s use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Issuer or upon the Issuer’s direction under any provision hereof; it shall not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Agent and it shall not be responsible for any statement or recital herein of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, or any document issued in connection with the sale of Notes or any statement in the Notes other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication.

SECTION 7.5 Notice of Default. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing and such event is known to a Trust Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee must deliver to each holder of the Notes, as their names and addresses appear on the list of holders of the Notes described in Section 2.5, notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after the occurrence thereof. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, of any Note, including the failure to make payment on (i) the Change of Control Payment Date pursuant to a Change of Control Offer or (ii) the date required for payment pursuant to an Asset Disposition Offer, the Trustee may withhold the notice of Default or an Event of Default if and for so long as the Trustee in good faith reasonably believes that it is in the best interests of the holders of the Notes to withhold such notice.

SECTION 7.6 Compensation and Indemnity. The Issuer shall pay to the Trustee and Agents from time to time such reasonable compensation as the Issuer and the Trustee shall from time to time agree in writing for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder. The Trustee’s and the Agents’ compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer shall reimburse the Trustee and Agents upon request for all reasonable disbursements, expenses and advances (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel or appointees) incurred or made by them in addition to the compensation for their services, except any such disbursements, expenses and advances as may be attributable to the Trustee’s or any Agent’s negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s and Agents’ accountants, experts and counsel and any taxes or other expenses incurred by a trust created pursuant to Section 8.4 hereof.

The Issuer agrees to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of the Trustee’s legal counsel, Xxxxxx & Xxxxxxx (London) LLP, in connection with its review, preparation and delivery of this Indenture and related documentation.

The Issuer shall indemnify each of the Trustee, any predecessor Trustee and the Agents (which, for purposes of this paragraph, include such Trustee’s and Agents’ affiliates, officers, directors, employees and agents) and in any other capacity the Trustee may serve hereunder for, and hold them harmless against, any and all loss, damage, claim, proceedings, demands, costs, expense or liability including taxes (other than taxes based on the income of the Trustee or franchise, doing business or other similar taxes imposed on the Trustee) incurred by the Trustee or an Agent without negligence or willful misconduct on its part in connection with acceptance of administration of this trust and performance of any provision under this Indenture, including the properly incurred expenses and counsel fees and expenses of defending itself against any claim of liability arising hereunder. The Trustee and the Agents shall notify the Issuer promptly of any claim asserted against the Trustee or such Agent for which it may seek indemnity. However, the failure by the Trustee or the Agent to so notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer of its obligations hereunder. The Issuer need not reimburse or indemnify against any loss liability or expense incurred by the Trustee through its own willful misconduct or negligence. The Issuer shall defend the claim and the Trustee or such Agent shall cooperate in the defense, subject to the Issuer reasonably consulting with the Trustee or such Agent prior to commencing any such defense or, if prior consultation is not practicable, then as soon as practicable thereafter. In any such cases where the interests of the Issuer and the Trustee or the Agent are adverse, the Trustee or any such Agent may employ its own counsel, and the Issuer shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Issuer need not pay for any settlement made without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

To secure the Issuer’s payment obligations in this Section 7.6, the Trustee and the Agents shall have a claim prior to the Notes against all money or property held or collected by the Trustee and the Agents, in its capacity as Trustee or Agent, except money or property held in trust to pay principal or premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest on particular Notes.

When the Trustee or an Agent incurs expenses or renders services after the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in clause (7) of Section 6.1, the expenses (including the properly incurred fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) and the compensation for the services shall be preferred over the status of the holders of the Notes in a proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law and are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

The Issuer’s obligations under this Section 7.6 and any claim arising hereunder shall survive the termination of this Indenture, the resignation or removal of any Trustee or Agent, the discharge of the Issuer’s obligations pursuant to Article VIII and any rejection or termination under any Bankruptcy Law.

Save as otherwise expressly provided in this Indenture, the Trustee shall have absolute and uncontrolled discretion as to the exercise of the discretions vested in the Trustee by this Indenture but, whenever the Trustee is bound to act under this Indenture at the request or direction of the holders of the Notes, the Trustee shall nevertheless not be so bound unless first indemnified and/or secured and/or prefunded to its satisfaction against all proceedings, claims and demands to which it may render itself liable and all costs, charges, expenses and liabilities which it may incur by so doing.

Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to this Section 7.6.

SECTION 7.7 Replacement of Trustee. The Trustee and any Agent may resign at any time by so notifying the Issuer in writing; provided, however, that this Indenture, the Notes, and the Note Guarantees shall remain valid notwithstanding a material conflict of interest of the Trustee. The holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee or any Agent by so providing not less than 30 day’s written notice to the Issuer and the Trustee or such Agent, as the case may be, in writing and may appoint a successor Trustee or Agent with the Issuer’s consent. A resignation or removal of the Trustee or any Agent and an appointment of a successor Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s or Agent’s acceptance of appointment, as the case may be, as provided in this Section 7.7. The Issuer may remove the Trustee or any Agent upon no less than 30 day’s written notice if:

(1)

the Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, under any Bankruptcy Law;

(2)

a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, or its respective property; or

(3)

the Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, becomes incapable of acting with respect to its duties hereunder.

If the Trustee or an Agent resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee or Agent for any reason, the Issuer shall notify each holder of the Notes of such event and shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Agent, as the case may be. Within one year after the successor Trustee or Agent takes office, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may, with the Issuer’s consent, appoint a successor Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, to replace the successor Trustee or Agent appointed by the Issuer.

A successor Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee or Agent and to the Issuer. Immediately after that, the retiring Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, shall transfer, after payment of all sums then owing to the Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, pursuant to Section 7.6, all property held by it as Trustee or Agent to the successor Trustee or Agent, subject to the Lien provided in Section 7.6, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, shall become effective, and the successor Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee or Agent under this Indenture. A successor Trustee or Agent shall mail notice of its succession to each holder of the Notes.

The Issuer covenants that, in the event of the Trustee or any agent giving notice of its resignation pursuant to this Section 7.7, it shall use its best endeavors to procure a successor Trustee or Agent to be appointed. If a successor Trustee or Agent does not take office within 30 days after the retiring Trustee or Agent resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee or Agent (as the case may be), shall be entitled to appoint a successor Trustee or Agent reasonably acceptable to the Issuer (such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) or the retiring Trustee or Agent (as the case may be), the Issuer or the holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee or Agent.

If the Trustee, within 90 days after becoming aware that a conflict of interest exists between such Trustee’s role as a trustee and any other capacity, shall not have eliminated such conflict of interest or resigned from office, the Issuer or any holder of the Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

If the Trustee or any Agent after written request by any holder of the Notes who has been a holder for at least six months fails to comply with Section 7.8, such holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, and the appointment of a successor thereto.

Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee or an Agent pursuant to this Section 7.7, the Issuer’s obligations under Section 7.6 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, and the Issuer shall pay to any replaced or removed Trustee or Agent all amounts owed under Section 7.6 upon such replacement or removal.

SECTION 7.8 Successor Trustee by Merger, etc. If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall, if such resulting, surviving or transferee corporation is otherwise eligible hereunder, be the successor Trustee. In case any Notes shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by consolidation, merger or conversion to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Notes so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Notes.

ARTICLE VIII

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE

SECTION 8.1 Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The Issuer (hereafter in this Article VIII, the “Defeasor”) may, at any time, with respect to the Notes, elect to have either Section 8.2 or 8.3 be applied to all outstanding Notes and all obligations of the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors with respect to the Subsidiary Guarantees upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article VIII.

SECTION 8.2 Legal Defeasance and Discharge. Upon the Defeasor’s exercise under Section 8.1 of the option applicable to this Section 8.2, the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall be deemed to have paid and discharged all the obligations relating to the outstanding Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.6, Section 8.8 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to below in this Section 8.2, and to have satisfied all of their other obligations under such Notes, the Subsidiary Guarantees and this Indenture and cured all then existing Events of Default (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (a) the rights of holders of outstanding Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on such Notes when such payments are due or on the Redemption Date solely out of the Defeasance Trust created pursuant to this Indenture; (b) the Issuer’s obligations with respect to Notes concerning issuing temporary Notes, or, where relevant, registration of such Notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for security payments held in trust; (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee, and the Issuer’s and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ obligations in connection therewith; and (d) this Article VIII and the obligations set forth in Section 8.6 hereof.

Subject to compliance with this Article VIII, the Defeasor may exercise its option under this Section 8.2 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.3 with respect to the Notes.

SECTION 8.3 Covenant Defeasance. Upon the Defeasor’s exercise under Section 8.1 of the option applicable to this Section 8.3, the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall be released from any obligations under the covenants contained in Article IV (other than Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.5, 4.7, 4.15, 4.16, 4.17 and clauses (1), (2) and (4) of 4.18(a)) hereof with respect to the outstanding Notes and the Note Guarantees on and after the date the conditions set forth below 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 of the Notes (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, such Covenant Defeasance means that, (i) with respect to the outstanding Notes, the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors 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 (ii) payment on the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(3) (but only if such Event of Default is triggered solely by a failure to comply with the conditions set forth in clauses (3) and (4) of Section 4.18(a)), Section 6.1(4) or (5) (insofar as they relate to Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.6, 4.8, 4.9, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.14, 4.18, 4.19, 4.20, 4.21 or 4.22), 6.1(6), (7) (with respect to a Significant Subsidiary) or 6.1(8), (9) or (10).

SECTION 8.4 Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. In order to exercise either of the defeasance options under Section 8.2 or Section 8.3 hereof, the Defeasor must comply with the following conditions:

(1)

the Defeasor shall have irrevocably deposited in trust (the “Defeasance Trust”), with the Trustee for the benefit of the holders of the Notes, euro or euro-denominated Government Obligations in such amounts as will be sufficient for the payment of principal, premium, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes to redemption or maturity, as the case may be;

(2)

the Defeasor shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel (subject to customary exceptions and exclusions) to the effect that holders of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. Federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and defeasance and will be subject to U.S. Federal income tax on the same amount and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred. In the case of Legal Defeasance only, such Opinion of Counsel must be based on a ruling of the U.S. Internal Revenue Service or other change in applicable U.S. Federal income tax law;

(3)

the Defeasor shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in Bermuda (subject to customary exceptions and exclusions), to the effect that holders of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for income tax purposes of Bermuda as a result of such deposit and defeasance and will be subject to income tax in Bermuda for the same amount and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred;

(4)

no Default or Event of Default (other than to incur indebtedness used to defease the Notes under this Article VIII) shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit in the Defeasance Trust or insofar as Events of Default from bankruptcy or insolvency events are concerned, at any time in the period ending on the 91st day after the date or deposit;

(5)

such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is bound;

(6)

the Defeasor shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuer with the intent of preferring the holders of the Notes over any other creditors of the Issuer or with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any other creditors of the Issuer or others;

(7)

the Defeasor 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; and

(8)

ARTICLE IX

AMENDMENTS, SUPPLEMENTS AND WAIVERS

SECTION 9.1 Without Consent of holders of the Notes. Notwithstanding Section 9.2 hereof, the Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors, and the Trustee together may amend or supplement this Indenture or the Notes without the consent of any holder of a Note to:

(1) cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency;

(2) provide for the assumption by a successor corporation or limited company of all of the Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture in the case of amalgamation, merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Issuer’s assets;

(3) provide for the assumption by a successor corporation or limited liability company of all of the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor under this Indenture and the Subsidiary Guarantees;

(4) provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes;

(5) add Guarantees with respect to the Notes;

(6) secure the Notes, the Subsidiary Guarantees or any other Guarantee of the Notes;

(7) add to the covenants of the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries for the benefit of the holders of the Notes or surrender any right or power conferred upon the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries; or

(8) make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any holder of the Notes.

Upon the request of the Issuer, accompanied by a Board Resolution authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 9.5, the Trustee shall join with the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors in the execution of any amended or supplemental indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of this Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations which may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into such amended or supplemental indenture which adversely affects its own rights, duties or immunities hereunder or otherwise.

If and so long as the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and the rules of such exchange so require, the Issuer will inform the Luxembourg Stock Exchange of any of the foregoing amendments, supplements and waivers and provide, if necessary, a supplement to the Offering Memorandum setting forth reasonable details in connection with any such amendments, supplements or waivers.

The consent of the holders of the Notes is not necessary under this Indenture to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment. It is sufficient if such consent approves the substance of the proposed amendment. A consent to any amendment or waiver under this Indenture by any holder of Notes given in connection with a tender of such holder’s Notes will not be rendered invalid by such tender.

SECTION 9.2 With Consent of Holders of Notes. The Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Notes or any amended or supplemental indenture with respect to the Notes with the written consent of the holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, the Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.7 and 6.10, any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences or compliance with any provisions of this Indenture or the Notes may be waived with the consent of the holders of in excess of 50% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, the Notes). However, without the consent of each holder of an outstanding Note affected, no amendment or waiver may:

(1) reduce the amount of Notes whose holders must consent to an amendment;

(2) reduce the stated rate of or extend the stated time for payment of interest on any Note;

(3) reduce the principal of or extend the Stated Maturity of any Note;

(4) reduce the premium payable upon the redemption or repurchase of any Note or change the time at which any Note may be redeemed or repurchased as described in Paragraphs 7 and 8 of the Notes and Sections 4.9 and 4.14 hereof or any similar provision, whether through an amendment or waiver of provisions in the covenants, definitions or otherwise;

(5) make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the Note;

(6) impair the right of any holder of the Notes to receive payment of premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, principal of and interest on such holder’s Notes on or after the due dates therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such holder’s Notes;

(7) release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Subsidiary Guarantee or this Indenture, except in accordance with this Indenture;

(8) directly or indirectly release the pledges except as permitted by the terms of this Indenture and the Security Documents; or

(9) make any change in the amendment provisions which require the consent of each holder of the Notes or in the waiver provisions.

Upon the request of the Issuer, accompanied by a Board Resolution authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the holders of the Notes as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 9.5, the Trustee shall join with the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or supplemental indenture adversely affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities hereunder or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental indenture. It shall not be necessary for the consent of the holders under this Section 9.2 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.2 becomes effective, the Issuer shall mail to the holders of the Notes (with a copy to the Trustee) a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. However, the failure to give such notice to all holders of the Notes, or any defect therein, will not in any way impair or affect the validity of such amended or supplemented indenture or waiver. In addition, for so long as the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and the rules of such exchange so require, the Issuer will publish notice of any amendment, supplement and waiver in The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg in a daily newspaper with general circulation in The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg (which is expected to be the d’Wort) or on the website of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange at xxx.xxxxxx.xx.

SECTION 9.3 Revocation and Effect of Consents. Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the holder of a Note and every subsequent holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such holder of a Note or subsequent holder of a Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the waiver, supplement or amendment becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every holder of a Note.

The Issuer may fix a record date for determining which holders of the Notes must consent to such amendment, supplement or waiver. If the Issuer fixes a record date, the record date shall be fixed at (i) the later of 30 days prior to the first solicitation of such consent or the date of the most recent list of holders of the Notes furnished to the Trustee prior to such solicitation pursuant to Section 2.5 or (ii) such other date as the Issuer shall designate.

SECTION 9.4 Notation on or Exchange of Notes. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Issuer in exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver. Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

SECTION 9.5 Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc.. The Trustee shall execute any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article IX; provided, however, that the Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, execute any such amendment, supplement or waiver which adversely affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture. The Trustee shall be fully protected in relying upon an Opinion of Counsel and an Officers’ Certificate each stating that the execution of any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article IX is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Issuer enforceable in accordance with its terms. Any Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee.

ARTICLE X

In addition, any share pledge will be released if the Subsidiary whose Capital Stock is pledged is redesignated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in compliance with the terms and conditions of this Indenture. All of the Collateral shall be released upon the defeasance or discharge of the Notes in accordance with Sections 8.2, 8.3 or 8.5 of this Indenture.

Each holder of Notes by accepting a Note shall be deemed to have authorized and directed each of the Trustee and the Security Trustee to execute the Intercreditor Agreement. Each holder of Notes by accepting a Note consents and agrees to the terms of the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement (including, without limitation, the provisions providing for foreclosure and release of Collateral) as the same may be in effect or may be amended from time to time in accordance with their terms and authorizes the Trustee and the Security Trustee to perform their respective obligations and exercise their respective rights thereunder in accordance therewith and appoints the Trustee as his attorney-in-fact for such purpose, including, in the event of any liquidation, dissolution, winding up, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of creditors or marshaling of assets of any Guarantor tending towards liquidation or reorganization of the business and assets of any Guarantor, the immediate filing of a claim for the unpaid balance under its Guarantee obligations in the form required in said proceedings to cause said claim to be approved, provided that it is expressly understood that the Trustee shall not be required to exercise any such rights as attorney for any holders of Notes unless instructed to do so in accordance with Section 7.6

(d) The Security Trustee agrees that it will hold the security interests in the Collateral created under any Security Document to which it is a party as contemplated by this Indenture and any and all proceeds thereof, for the benefit of, among others, the Trustee and the holders of Notes, without limiting the Security Trustee’s rights to act in preservation of the security interest in the Collateral. The Security Trustee will take action or refrain from taking action in connection therewith only as directed by the Trustee and provided it has been indemnified and/or secured and/or prefunded to its satisfaction.

(e) Each holder, by accepting a Note, shall be deemed to have agreed to all the terms and provisions of the Security Documents.

(g) Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, the Notes are secured by Liens that rank junior under local law to the Existing Senior Notes, but, pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement, the parties thereto have agreed that the Notes shall rank pari passu in relation to the application or right in and priority of payment of any enforcement proceeds to the security interests securing the Existing Senior Notes, which are secured by the same Collateral.

(h) Each holder of Notes by accepting a Note and the related Guarantees agrees that enforcement of the Collateral is subject to certain limitations to the extent and in the manner provided in the Intercreditor Agreement and that the order of application of any enforcement proceeds means that holders of Notes shall receive enforcement proceeds, if any. after first being applied in paying all proper costs, charges and expenses incurred by Secured Parties (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) in enforcing against the Collateral or collecting the proceeds thereof.

The Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Security Trustee acknowledge that (i) for this purpose, the Parallel Debt constitutes undertakings, obligations and liabilities of the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors to the Security Trustee which are separate and independent from, and without prejudice to, the corresponding Principal Debt Obligations which the Issuer or the Subsidiary Guarantors have under this Indenture or under the Notes and (ii) that the Parallel Debt represents the Security Trustee’s own claims (vorderingen op naam) to receive payment of the Parallel Debt, provided that the total amount of the Parallel Debt shall never exceed the total amount of the Principal Debt Obligations.

(iv)

Every payment of monies made by the Issuer or by the Subsidiary Guarantors to the Security Trustee shall (conditionally upon such payment not subsequently being avoided or reduced by virtue of any provisions or enactments relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or similar laws of general application) be in satisfaction pro tanto of the covenant by the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors contained in Section (ii), provided that, if any such payment as is mentioned above is subsequently avoided or reduced by virtue of any provisions or enactments relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or similar laws of general application, the Security Trustee shall be entitled to receive a corresponding amount as Parallel Debt under Section (ii) from the Issuer or the Subsidiary Guarantors and each of the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall remain liable to satisfy such Parallel Debt and such Parallel Debt shall be deemed not to have been discharged.

(v)

Notwithstanding any of the other provisions of this Section 11.9:

(a)

the total amount due and payable as Parallel Debt under this Section 11.9 shall be decreased to the extent that, and at the same time as, the Issuer and/or the Subsidiary Guarantors shall have paid any amounts to reduce the outstanding Principal Debt Obligations; and

(b)

to the extent that, and at the same time as, the Issuer and/or the Subsidiary Guarantors shall have paid any amounts to the Security Trustee under the Parallel Debt or the Security Trustee otherwise shall have received monies in payment of the Parallel Debt, the total amount due and payable under the Principal Debt Obligations shall be decreased as if said amounts were received directly in payment of the Principal Debt Obligations.

(vi)

For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that the Issuer or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors is in default in respect of the Principal Debt Obligations, as set forth in this Indenture, each of the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall, at the same time, be deemed in default in respect of its obligations under the Parallel Debt.

(vii)

The terms of this Section 11.9 shall be interpreted according to the internal laws of the Netherlands, without having regard to any choice of law principles that would apply the laws of any other jurisdiction to this Section 11.9.

The Issuer, each Subsidiary Guarantor or the Trustee by written notice may designate additional or different addresses for notices. Any notice or communication to the Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors or the Trustee shall be deemed to have been given or made as of the date so delivered if personally delivered; when receipt is acknowledged, if telecopied; and five (5) calendar days after mailing if sent by first class mail, postage prepaid (except that a notice of change of address and a notice to the Trustee shall not be deemed to have been given until actually received by the addressee).

Any notice or communication mailed to a holder of the Notes shall be mailed to such Person by first-class mail or other equivalent means at such Person’s address as it appears on the registration books of the Registrar and shall be sufficiently given to him if so mailed within the time prescribed.

Failure to mail a notice or communication to a holder of the Notes or any defect in it shall not affect its sufficiency with respect to other holders of the Notes. If a notice or communication is mailed in the manner provided above, it is duly given, whether or not the addressee receives it.

Notices regarding the Notes will be sent to the Trustee and published in a leading newspaper having a general circulation in London (which is expected to be the Financial Times). Notices to holders of the Notes will be validly given if mailed to them at their respective addresses in the register of holders of such Notes, maintained by the Registrar. In addition, so long as any of the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and the rules of such stock exchange so require, notices will be published in a leading newspaper having a general circulation in The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg (which is expected to be the d’Wort) or on the website of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange at xxx.xxxxxx.xx, or, if in the opinion of the Trustee such publication is not practicable, in an English language newspaper having general circulation in Europe. In the case of Definitive Notes, all notices to holders of the Notes will be validly given if mailed to them at their respective addresses in the register of the holders of such Notes, if any, maintained by the Registrar. Each such notice shall be deemed to have been given on the date of such publication or, if published more than once on different dates, on the first date on which publication is made; provided that, if notices are mailed, such notice shall be deemed to have been given on the later of such publication and the seventh day after being so mailed. For so long as any Notes are represented by Global Notes, all notices to holders of the Notes will be delivered to Euroclear and Clearstream. Any notice or communication mailed to a holder of the Notes shall be mailed to such Person by first-class mail or other equivalent means and shall be sufficiently given to him if so mailed within the time prescribed. Failure to mail a notice or communication to a holder of the Notes or any defect in it shall not affect its sufficiency with respect to other holders of the Notes. If a notice or communication is mailed in the manner provided above, it is duly given, whether or not the addressee receives it.

SECTION 12.2 Certificate and Opinion as to Conditions Precedent. Upon any request or application by the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor to the Trustee, the Security Trustee or an Agent to take any action under this Indenture, the Issuer or such Subsidiary Guarantor shall furnish to the Trustee at the request of the Trustee:

(1) an Officers’ Certificate, in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee (which shall include the statements set forth in Section 12.3), stating that, in the opinion of the signers thereof, all conditions precedent and covenants, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been satisfied or complied with; and

(2) an Opinion of Counsel in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee or such Agent (which shall include the statements set forth in Section 12.3) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all such conditions precedent and covenants have been satisfied or complied with.

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

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

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

SECTION 12.3 Statements Required in Certificate or Opinion. Each certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture shall include:

(1) a statement that the Person making such certificate or opinion has read such covenant or condition;

(2) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based;

(3) a statement that, in the opinion of such Person, such Person has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable such Person to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition has been complied with; and

(4) a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of each such Person, such condition or covenant has been complied with.

SECTION 12.4 Rules by Trustee, Security Trustee, Paying Agent (Including Principal Paying Agent), Registrar. The Trustee, the Security Trustee, the Paying Agent (including the Principal Paying Agent) or the Registrar may make reasonable rules for its functions.

SECTION 12.5 Legal Holidays. If a payment date is not a Business Day, payment may be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, and no interest shall accrue for the intervening period.

SECTION 12.6 Governing Law. This Indenture and the Notes, and the rights and duties of the parties hereunder and thereunder, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, other than as provided in Section 11.9.

SECTION 12.7 Submission to Jurisdiction; Appointment of Agent for Service. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Issuer and each Subsidiary Guarantor irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of and venue in any federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of Xxx Xxxx, Xxxxxx xxx Xxxxx xx Xxx Xxxx, Xxxxxx Xxxxxx of America, in any suit or proceeding based on or arising out of or under or in connection with this Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees, and irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such suit or proceeding may be determined in any such court. Each of the Issuer and each Subsidiary Guarantor, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrevocably and fully waives the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such suit or proceeding and hereby irrevocably designates and appoints CT Corporation System (the “Authorized Agent”), as its authorized agent upon whom process may be served in any such suit or proceeding. CT Corporation System hereby agrees to act as the Authorized Agent, as the case may be, for the Issuer and each Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be and hereby irrevocably consents to be served with notice of service of process by delivery or by registered mail with return receipt requested to its registered office (which, as of the date hereof, is 000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000 (which service of process by registered mail shall be effective with respect to the Issuer and each Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, so long as such return receipt is obtained, or in the refusal to sign such receipt any holder of Notes or the Trustee is able to produce evidence of attempted delivery by such means). The Issuer and each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby irrevocably authorize and direct its Authorized Agent to accept such service. The Issuer and each Subsidiary Guarantor further agree that service of process upon its Authorized Agent and written notice of such service to the Issuer and each Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, as set forth above shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon the Issuer or each Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, in any such suit or proceeding. Nothing herein shall affect the right of any person to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. The Issuer and each Subsidiary Guarantor agree that a final action in any such suit or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other lawful manner.

The Issuer and each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby irrevocably waive, to the extent permitted by law, any immunity to jurisdiction to which it may otherwise be entitled (including, without limitation, immunity to pre-judgment attachment, post-judgment attachment and execution) in any legal suit, action or proceeding against it arising out of or based on this Indenture, the Notes or the transactions contemplated hereby.

The provisions of this Section 12.7 are intended to be effective upon the execution of this Indenture and the Notes without any further action by the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors, or the Trustee and the introduction of a true copy of this Indenture into evidence shall be conclusive and final evidence as to such matters.

SECTION 12.8 No Adverse Interpretation of Other Agreements. This Indenture may not be used to interpret another indenture, loan or debt agreement of the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries. Any such indenture, loan or debt agreement may not be used to interpret this Indenture.

SECTION 12.9 No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees, Incorporators or Stockholders. No director, officer, employee, incorporator or shareholder of the Issuer, or any of its Subsidiaries, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries under the Notes, this Indenture or the Subsidiary Guarantees herein or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes.

SECTION 12.10 Currency Indemnity. The euro is the sole currency of account and payment for all sums payable by the Issuer, or any Subsidiary Guarantor under this Indenture. Any amount received or recovered in a currency other than euro (whether as a result of the enforcement of, a judgment or order of a court of any jurisdiction, in the winding-up or dissolution of the Issuer, any Subsidiary or otherwise) by a holder of Notes in respect of any sum expressed to be due to it from the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor will constitute a discharge of the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantor only to the extent of the euro amount which the recipient is able to purchase with the amount so received or recovered in that other currency on the date of that receipt or recovery (or, if it is not possible to make that purchase on that date, on the first date on which it is possible to do so). If such euro amount is less than the euro amount expressed to be due to the recipient under any Note or any Subsidiary Guarantee, the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor of the Notes will indemnify the recipient against any loss sustained by it as a result. In any event the Issuer will indemnify the recipient against the cost of making any such purchase.

For the purposes of this Section 12.10, it will be sufficient for the holder of a Note to certify that it would have suffered a loss had an actual purchase of euro been made with the amount so received in that other currency on the date of receipt or recovery (or, if a purchase of euro on such date had not been practicable, on the first date on which it would have been practicable). These indemnities constitute a separate and independent obligation from the other obligations of the Issuer and Subsidiary Guarantors, will give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, will apply irrespective of any waiver granted by any holder of the Notes and will continue in full force and effect despite any other judgment, order, claim or proof for a liquidated amount in respect of any sum due under any Note or any Subsidiary Guarantee or any other judgment or order.

SECTION 12.11 Currency Calculation. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, for purposes of determining compliance with any euro-denominated restriction herein, the euro-equivalent amount for purposes hereof that is denominated in a non-euro currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such non-euro amount is incurred or made, as the case may be.

SECTION 12.12 Information. For so long as the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and the rules of such exchange so require, copies of this Indenture will be made available in The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg through the offices of the Paying Agent in Luxembourg.

SECTION 12.13 Successors. All agreements of the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors in this Indenture, the Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees shall bind their respective successors. All agreements of the Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successor.

SECTION 12.14 Counterpart Originals. All parties hereto may sign any number of copies of this Indenture. Each signed copy or counterpart shall be an original, but all of them together shall represent one and the same agreement.

SECTION 12.15 Severability. In case any one or more of the provisions in this Indenture or in the Notes shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, in any respect for any reason, the validity, legality and enforceability of any such provision in every other respect and of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, it being intended that all of the provisions hereof shall be enforceable to the full extent permitted by law.

SECTION 12.16 Table of Contents, Headings, etc. The Table of Contents and Headings of the Articles and Sections of this Indenture have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not to be considered a part of this Indenture and shall in no way modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Indenture to be duly executed, as of the date first written above.

[FORM OF REVERSE]

CENTRAL EUROPEAN MEDIA ENTERPRISES LTD.

Senior Note due 2016

(1) Interest. CENTRAL EUROPEAN MEDIA ENTERPRISES LTD., a company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of Bermuda (the “Issuer”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate of 11.625% per annum. Interest on this Note will be payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15, commencing on March 15, 2010. Interest on this Note will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from and including the Issue Date.

The Issuer shall pay interest on overdue principal and on overdue installments of interest and on any Additional Amounts as specified in the Indenture. Any interest paid on this Note shall be increased to the extent necessary to pay Additional Amounts as set forth herein.

(2) Additional Amounts. All payments made by the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor (each, a “Payor”) under, or with respect to, this Note or a Subsidiary Guarantee, will be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future tax, duty, levy, impost, assessment or other governmental charge (including penalties, interest and other liabilities related thereto) (collectively, “Taxes”) unless the Payor is required to withhold or deduct such Taxes by law or by the official interpretation or administration thereof. If the Payor is required to withhold or deduct any amount for or on account of Taxes imposed or levied by or on behalf of (i) Bermuda, Netherlands, and Netherlands Antilles or any political subdivision or governmental authority of any thereof or therein having the power to tax, (ii) any jurisdiction from or through which payment on the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantee is made, or any political subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein having the power to tax, or (iii) any other jurisdiction in which a Payor is organized or otherwise considered to be a resident for tax purposes, or any political subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein having the power to tax (any of the aforementioned being a “Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction”) from any payment made under or with respect to this Note or any Subsidiary Guarantee, the Payor will pay such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary so that the net amount received by each holder of this Note (including Additional Amounts) after such withholding or deduction will not be less than the amount such holder would have received if such Taxes had not been required to be withheld or deducted; provided, however, that the foregoing obligation to pay Additional Amounts does not apply to:

(1)

any Taxes that would not have been so imposed but for the existence of any present or former connection between the relevant holder, including, without limitation, such relevant holder being or having been a citizen or resident thereof or being or having been present or engaged in a trade or business therein or having or having had a permanent establishment therein (or between a fiduciary, settler, beneficiary, member or shareholder of, or possessor of power over the relevant holder, if the relevant holder is an estate, nominee, trust or corporation), and the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction other than a connection resulting from the mere ownership or holding of such Note or enforcement of rights thereunder or under the Subsidiary Guarantee or the receipt of payments in respect thereof;

A-4

(2)

any Taxes that would not have been so imposed if the holder had made a declaration of non-residence or any other claim or filing for exemption to which it is entitled (provided that (x) such declaration of non-residence or other claim or filing for exemption is required by the applicable law of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction as a precondition to exemption from the requirement to deduct or withhold such Taxes and (y) at least 30 days prior to the first payment date with respect to which such declaration of non-residence or other claim or filing for exemption is required under the applicable law of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, the relevant holder at that time has been notified (in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 12.1 of the Indenture) by the Payor or any other person through whom payment may be made that a declaration of non-residence or other claim or filing for exemption is required to be made);

(3)

any Note presented for payment (where presentation is required) more than 30 days after the relevant payment is first made available for payment to the holder (except to the extent that the holder would have been entitled to Additional Amounts had the Note been presented during such 30 day period);

(4)

any Taxes that are payable otherwise than by withholding from a payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest, on the Notes or under the Subsidiary Guarantee;

(5)

any estate, inheritance, gift, sale, transfer, personal property or similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge;

(6)

any withholding or deduction imposed on a payment to an individual and required to be made pursuant to the European Union Directive on the taxation of savings income (the “Directive”) which was adopted by the ECOFIN Council of the European Union (the Council of EU finance and economic ministers) on June 3, 2003 or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, the Directive; or

(7)

any Taxes which could have been avoided by the presentation (where presentation is required) of the relevant Note to another Paying Agent in a member state of the European Union.

Such Additional Amounts will also not be payable where, had the beneficial owner of the Note been the holder of the Note, it would not have been entitled to payment of Additional Amounts by reason of any of clauses (1) to (7) inclusive above.

Upon request, the Issuer will provide the Trustee with documentation satisfactory to the Trustee evidencing the payment of Additional Amounts. Copies of such documentation will be made available to the holders of the Notes upon request.

(3) Method of Payment. The Issuer shall pay interest on this Note (except defaulted interest) to the Person in whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on the Record Date for such interest. Holders of Notes must surrender Notes to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments. The Issuer shall pay principal and interest in euro. Immediately available funds for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on this Note due on any interest payment date, Maturity Date, Redemption Date or other repurchase date will be made available to the Paying Agent prior to 12.00 p.m. London time on the Business Day immediately preceding each interest payment date and the Maturity Date to permit the Paying Agent to pay such funds to the holders on such respective dates.

A-5

(4) Paying Agent. Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon, acting through its London Branch, will act as Principal Paying Agent. In the event that a Paying Agent or Transfer Agent is replaced, the Issuer will publish such notice thereof if and so long as the Notes are Global Notes and are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and the rules of such stock exchange shall so require, in a newspaper having a general circulation in The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg (which is expected to be the d’Wort) or on the website of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange at xxx.xxxxxx.xx, and (in the case of Definitive Notes), in addition to such publication, mail such notice by first-class mail to each holder’s registered address. The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar for this Note.

(5) Indenture. The Issuer issued the Notes under an Indenture, dated as of September 17, 2009 (the “Indenture”), among the Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors, The Bank of New York Mellon, acting through its London Branch, as Trustee, The Bank of New York Mellon, acting through its London Branch, as Transfer Agent and Principal Paying Agent, The Law Debenture Trust Corporation p.l.c., as Security Trustee, and The Bank of New York Mellon (Luxembourg) S.A. as Registrar, Luxembourg Transfer Agent and Luxembourg Paying Agent. This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Issuer designated as its Senior Notes due 2016 (the “Notes”). The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Notes are subject to all such terms, and holders of the Notes are referred to the Indenture for a statement of them. The Notes are general obligations of the Issuer. The Notes are not limited in aggregate principal amount and Additional Notes may be issued from time to time under the Indenture, in each case subject to the terms of the Indenture. Each holder of the Notes, by accepting a Note, agrees to be bound by all of the terms and provisions of the Indenture, as the same may be amended from time to time.

(6) Ranking. The Notes will be general, senior secured obligations of the Issuer. In addition, the Notes have the benefit of the senior secured Guarantees of the Issuer and certain of its Subsidiaries.

(7) Optional Redemption. On and after September 15, 2013, the issuer may redeem all or, from time to time, a part of the Notes upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the following redemption prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes, if any, to the applicable redemption date (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), if redeemed during the periods indicated below:

Any such redemption and notice may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent.

“Applicable Fixed Rate Premium” means with respect to any fixed rate note on any redemption date prior to September 15, 2013, the greater of (A) 1% of the principal amount of such fixed rate note and (B):

the excess of:

(1)

the present value at such redemption date of (i) the redemption price of such fixed rate note at September 15, 2013 (such redemption price (expressed in percentage of principal amount) being set forth in the table above under the first paragraph of this section), plus (ii) all required interest payments due on such fixed rate note to and including September 15, 2013 (including accrued but unpaid interest), computed upon the redemption date using a discount rate equal to the Bund Rate at such redemption date plus 50 basis points; over

(2)

“Bund Rate” means, with respect to any relevant date, the rate per annum equal to the equivalent yield to maturity as of such date of the Comparable German Bund Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable German Bund Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable German Bund Price for such relevant date, where:

(a) “Comparable German Bund Issue” means the German Bundesanleihe security selected by any Reference German Bund Dealer as having a fixed maturity most nearly equal to the period from such redemption date to September 15, 2013, and that would be utilized at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of euro-denominated corporate debt securities in a principal amount approximately equal to the then outstanding principal amount of the notes and of a maturity most nearly equal to September 15, 2013; provided, however, that, if the period from such redemption date to September 15, 2013, is less than one year, a fixed maturity of one year shall be used;

A-7

(b) “Comparable German Bund Price” means, with respect to any relevant date, the average of all Reference German Bund Dealer Quotations for such date (which, in any event, must include at least two such quotations), after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference German Bund Dealer Quotations, or if the Issuer obtains fewer than four such Reference German Bund Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations;

(c) “Reference German Bund Dealer” means any dealer of German Bundesanleihe securities appointed by the Issuer in consultation with the Trustee; and

(8) Special Tax Redemption. The Notes may be redeemed, at the option of the Issuer, in whole but not in part, at any time, upon giving not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice to the date fixed by the Issuer for Redemption (a “Tax Redemption Date”) to each holder of the Notes (which notice will be irrevocable), at a price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the redemption date, and Additional Amounts, if any (the “Redemption Price”), which otherwise would be payable, if the Issuer, with respect to the Notes, and a Subsidiary Guarantor, with respect to a Subsidiary Guarantee, is, or on the next interest payment date in respect of the Notes, would be, required to pay Additional Amounts in respect of any Note pursuant to the terms and conditions thereof which obligation cannot be avoided by the taking of reasonable measures available to it as a result of (i) any change in, or amendment to, the law or treaties (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction affecting taxation or (ii) any amendment to or change in position regarding the application, administration or interpretation of such laws, treaties, regulations or rulings (including a holding, judgment or order by a court of competent jurisdiction)(each of the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), a “Change in Tax Law” which becomes effective on or after the Issue Date; provided, however, that no such notice of redemption will be given (a) earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Payor would be obliged to make such payment or withholding if a payment in respect of the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantee were then due and (b) unless at the time such notice is given, such obligation to pay such Additional Amounts remains in effect.

(9) Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption will be given at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date, or Tax Redemption Date, as the case may be in accordance with Section 12.1 of the Indenture and, in the event the Notes are in the form of Definitive Notes, by mailing first-class mail, with a copy to the Trustee, postage prepaid, to each holder’s respective address as it appears on the registration books of the Registrar.

Except as set forth in the Indenture, from and after any Redemption Date, if monies for the redemption of the Notes called for redemption shall have been deposited with the Paying Agent for redemption on such Redemption Date, then, unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of such Redemption Price, the Notes called for redemption will cease to bear interest and Additional Amounts, if any, and the only right of the holders of such Notes will be to receive payment of the Redemption Price.
