Indenture, select the Notes to be redeemed in multiples of $1,000 pro rata, by
lot or in accordance with a method which the Trustee considers to be fair and
appropriate. On and after the redemption date interest ceases to accrue on

Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Company or any of
its Restricted Subsidiaries) whether such Indebtedness or guarantee now exists,
or is created after the date of the Indenture, which default (a) is caused by a
failure to pay principal of or premium, if any, or interest on such
Indebtedness prior to the expiration of the grace period provided in such
Indebtedness (a "Payment Default") or (b) results in the acceleration of such
Indebtedness prior to its express maturity and, in each case described in
clauses (a) and (b) of this subsection (v), 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 $10.0 million or more; (vi) failure by the Company

interest thereon and all other Obligations thereunder, to be due and payable

certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company, any

Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant
Subsidiary, all outstanding Notes shall become due and payable immediately
without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the
Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations,
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may direct the Trustee
in its exercise of any trust or power. The Company must furnish an annual
compliance certificate to the Trustee.
15. Trustee Dealings with Company. United States Trust Company
of New York, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other
capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with
the Company or its respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates with the same rights
it would have if it were not Trustee.
16. No Recourse Against Others. No past, present or future
director, officer, employee, agent or stockholder of the Company, as such,
shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes or
the Indenture 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 the issue of the Notes.
