The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding.  Except as set forth in Section 2.09, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds the Note.

If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser.

If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue.

If there has been irrevocably deposited with the Paying Agent (other than the Issuer, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof), on a redemption date or maturity date, money sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding and shall cease to accrue interest.

Section 2.09  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 any Guarantor, or by any Person directly or indirectly controlled by the Issuer or any Guarantor, shall be considered as though not outstanding, 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 Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded.

Section 2.10  Temporary Notes.

Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate temporary Notes.  Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as may be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.  Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes.

Holders of temporary Notes shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture.

Section 2.11  Cancellation.

The Issuer at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation.  The Registrar and Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment.  The Trustee and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall dispose of such canceled Notes in accordance with its then standard procedures (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act).  Certification of the disposal of all canceled Notes shall be delivered to the Issuer upon its written request therefor.  The Issuer may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

Section 2.12  Defaulted Interest.

If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it shall pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01.  The Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment.  The Issuer shall fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date; provided that no such special record date may be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest.  At least 15 days before the special record date, the Issuer (or, upon five Business Days’ prior written request of the Issuer, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuer) shall mail or cause to be mailed to Holders a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid.

- 35 -

Section 2.13  CUSIP Numbers.

The Issuer in issuing the Notes may use CUSIP numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee will use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption will not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers.  The Issuer will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the CUSIP numbers.

Section 2.14  Issuance of Additional Notes.

The Issuer will be entitled, from time to time, without consent of the Holders, to issue Additional Notes under this Indenture with identical terms as the Initial Notes issued on the Issue Date other than with respect to (i) the date of issuance and, if applicable, initial accrual of interest, (ii) the issue price and (iii) any adjustments in order to conform to and ensure compliance with the Securities Act (or other applicable securities laws).  The Initial Notes issued on the Issue Date and any Additional Notes will be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture; provided that in the event any Additional Notes are not fungible with the Initial Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such non-fungible Additional Notes will be issued with a separate CUSIP number.

With respect to any Additional Notes, the Issuer will set forth in an Officers’ Certificate or in a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Issuer, copies of which will be delivered to the Trustee, the following information:

(1) the aggregate principal amount of such Additional Notes to be authenticated and delivered pursuant to this Indenture;

In the event that less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time pursuant to a redemption made pursuant to paragraph 5 of the Notes, selection of the Notes for redemption shall be made on a pro rata basis (if the Notes are issued in physical form) or in accordance with the Depository’s applicable procedures (if the Notes are issued in global form) and, in each case, if the Notes are listed on a national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange on which the Notes are listed; provided, however, that no Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less shall be redeemed in part. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer in writing of the Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of any Notes selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption.

Section 3.03  Notice of Redemption.

At least 10 days, and no more than 60 days, before a Redemption Date, the Issuer shall mail or cause to be mailed, or deliver electronically or cause to be delivered electronically for any Notes held by the Depository, a notice of redemption to each Holder of a Note at his or her last address as the same appears on the registry books maintained by the Registrar pursuant to Section 2.04, except that redemption notices may be mailed, or delivered electronically for any Notes held by the Depository, more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with a Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance of the Issuer’s obligations pursuant to Article 8 or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Article 11, or if the Redemption Date is delayed as provided for in Section 3.04. If the Issuer mails such notice to Holders, it shall mail a copy of such notice to the Trustee at the same time.

The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed (including CUSIP Number(s)) and shall state:

(1) the redemption date;

(2) the redemption price;

(3) if any 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 Note, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion shall be issued in the name of the applicable Holder upon cancellation of the original Note;

(4) the name and address of the Paying Agent;

(5) that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price;

(6) that, unless the Issuer defaults in making such redemption payment, interest on Notes called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date;

(8) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP numbers, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes; and

(9) any condition precedent to the redemption and related information as required by Section 3.04.

- 37 -

At the Issuer’s written request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Issuer’s name and at its expense; provided, however, that the Issuer has delivered to the Trustee, at least 15 days prior to the redemption date (or such shorter period as the Trustee may agree (but in no case less than 10 days prior to the redemption date)), an Officers’ Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the preceding paragraph along with a copy of the redemption notice to be delivered to the Holders. The Issuer may provide in a notice of redemption that payment of the redemption price and the performance of the Issuer’s obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.

Section 3.04  Effect of Notice of Redemption.

Except as provided in the immediately following sentence, once a notice of redemption is delivered in accordance with Section 3.03, subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of any conditions precedent, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the Redemption Date at the redemption price. Any redemption or notice may, at the Issuer’s option, be subject to the satisfaction (or waiver by the Issuer in its sole discretion) of one or more conditions precedent. In addition, if such redemption or notice is subject to satisfaction (or waiver) of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall state that, in the Issuer’s discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Issuer in its sole discretion) or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been (or, in the Issuer’s sole determination, are not expected to be) satisfied by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date so delayed.

The Issuer may provide in any notice that payment of the redemption price and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, and the performance of the Issuer’s obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.

Section 3.05  Deposit of Redemption or Purchase Price.

Prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the relevant redemption date or required purchase date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption or purchase price of, and accrued interest on, all Notes to be redeemed or purchased on that date.  The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Issuer any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Issuer in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption or purchase price of, and accrued interest on, all Notes to be redeemed or purchased.

If the Issuer complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after the redemption or required purchase date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase.  If a Note is redeemed or purchased on or after an interest record date but on or prior to the related interest payment date, then any accrued and unpaid interest 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 or purchase is not so paid upon surrender for redemption or purchase because of the failure of the Issuer to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption or purchase 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 4.01.

Section 3.06  Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part.

Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed or purchased in part, the Issuer shall issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder at the expense of the Issuer a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered.

Section 3.07  Optional Redemption.

The Issuer may at any time and from time to time, at its option, redeem the Notes outstanding (in whole or in part) as provided in paragraph 5 of the Notes.

Section 3.08  Mandatory Redemption.

Section 4.01  Payment of Notes.

The Issuer shall pay or cause to be paid the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes on the dates and in the manner provided in the Notes.  Principal, premium, if any, and interest shall be considered paid on the date due if there has been irrevocably deposited with the Paying Agent, if other than the Issuer or a Subsidiary thereof, as of 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the due date money by or on behalf of the Issuer in immediately available funds and designated for and sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any, and interest then due.

Section 4.02  Maintenance of Office or Agency.

The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency (which may be an office of the Trustee or an affiliate of the Trustee, Registrar or co-registrar) 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 fails to maintain any such required office or agency or fails to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee.

The Issuer may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Issuer of its obligation to maintain an office or agency for such purposes.  The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

The Issuer hereby designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee as one such office or agency of the Issuer in accordance with Section 2.03.

Section 4.03  Reports.

(b)  With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the incurrence of such Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness and any Increased Amount shall not be considered an additional incurrence of secured Indebtedness for purposes of this covenant. The “Increased Amount” of any Indebtedness shall mean any increase in the amount of such Indebtedness in connection with any accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference, any fees, underwriting discounts, accrued and unpaid interest, premiums and other costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith and increases in the amount (or the dollar equivalent amount) of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies or increases in the value of property securing Indebtedness.

Section 4.06  Guaranteed Indebtedness.

(a)  So long as any of the Notes remain outstanding, the Issuer will not, nor will it permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that are Wholly Owned Subsidiaries to, Guarantee any Indebtedness for borrowed money or any Capital Markets Debt (other than Permitted Guaranteed Indebtedness) that is incurred, issued or assumed by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that are Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries or for which the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that are Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries otherwise becomes liable.

Section 4.07  Sales and Leasebacks.

So long as any of the Notes remain outstanding, the Issuer will not, nor will it permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, enter into any sale and leaseback arrangement involving any asset or property of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries which has a term of more than three years, except for sale and leaseback arrangements between the Issuer and a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Issuer that is a Restricted Subsidiary or between Wholly Owned Subsidiaries of the Issuer that are Restricted Subsidiaries, unless:

Section 4.08  Change of Control Offer.

(a)  If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, unless the Issuer has exercised its option to redeem the Notes in whole pursuant to this Indenture and the Notes, the Issuer shall make an offer (the “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder of Notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such Notes to, but not including, the repurchase date (the “Change of Control Payment”), subject to the rights of Holders of the Notes on a regular record date to receive interest due on the related interest payment date falling on or prior to the repurchase date. Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event or, at the Issuer’s option, prior to any Change of Control, but after public announcement of the transaction that constitutes or may constitute a Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuer shall transmit a notice to each Holder, with a copy to the Trustee, describing the transactions and events that constitute or may constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase the Notes on the date specified in the notice, which date shall be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (the “Change of Control Payment Date”). The notice, if transmitted prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, shall state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on the Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date. In the event that such offer to purchase fails to satisfy the condition in the immediately preceding sentence, the Issuer shall cause another notice meeting the aforementioned requirements to be transmitted to Holders.

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

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

The Paying Agent shall promptly transmit to each Holder of properly tendered Notes the Change of Control Payment for such Notes being repurchased, and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to the unrepurchased portion, if any, of any Notes surrendered; provided that each new Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

(c)  The Issuer shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by the Issuer and such third party repurchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer.

(d)  The Issuer shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any such securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Notes, the Issuer shall comply with those securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.08 by virtue of any such conflict.

(2) such Subsidiary and each of its Subsidiaries has not at the time of designation, and does not thereafter, incur any Indebtedness pursuant to which the lender has recourse to any of the assets of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (not including Standard Securitization Undertakings or a pledge of Equity Interests in such Unrestricted Subsidiary); and

(3) the aggregate Fair Market Value of each Subsidiary of the Issuer designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary (or the portion thereof allocable to the direct or indirect Investment of the Issuer therein in the case of a non-Wholly Owned Subsidiary) (as determined in good faith by the Issuer at the time of each such designation), together with the aggregate amount of all Investments made by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries in Unrestricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer pursuant to the proviso to the immediately succeeding paragraph, would not exceed the greater of (i) $500.0 million and (ii) 10% of the Consolidated Total Assets of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries.  If at any time an Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Issuer fails to comply with clauses (1) and (2) of this Section 4.09(a), such Subsidiary shall no longer constitute an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

 

- 42 -

(b)  The Issuer will not make and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to make any Investment in an Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Issuer; provided that the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries may make any Investment in an Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Issuer so long as the aggregate amount of all Investments made by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries in Unrestricted Subsidiaries, together with the aggregate Fair Market Value of each Subsidiary of the Issuer designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary (or the portion thereof allocable to the direct or indirect Investment of the Issuer therein in the case of a non-Wholly Owned Subsidiary) (as determined in good faith by the Issuer at the time of each such designation), would not exceed the greater of (a) $500.0 million and (b) 10% of the Consolidated Total Assets of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries measured at the time any such Investment is made.

(d)  Any such designation by the Board of Directors of the Issuer under Section 4.09(a) or Section 4.09(c) shall be evidenced to the Trustee by promptly filing with the Trustee a copy of the Board Resolution giving effect to such designation and an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such designation complied with the foregoing provisions.

Section 4.10  Additional Note Guarantees.

If, after the date hereof, (1) any Wholly Owned U.S. Subsidiary (including any newly formed or newly acquired Wholly Owned U.S. Subsidiary) of the Issuer that is a Restricted Subsidiary that is not then a Guarantor (x) incurs or guarantees any Indebtedness under the Existing Credit Agreement or (y) guarantees any Capital Markets Debt issued by the Issuer or any Guarantor with an aggregate outstanding principal amount in excess of $100.0 million or (2) the Issuer otherwise elects to have any of its Restricted Subsidiaries become a Guarantor, then, in each such case, the Issuer shall cause such Restricted Subsidiary to, within 30 days thereafter, execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary shall become a Guarantor under this Indenture and provide a Note Guarantee on the same terms and conditions as those set forth in this Indenture and applicable to the other Guarantors and deliver an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee.

(b)  If on any subsequent date two of the Rating Agencies shall have assigned to the Notes ratings below Investment Grade Ratings, the Suspended Covenants will be reinstated as of and from the time at which the Issuer obtains actual knowledge of such rating decline (any such time, a “Reversion Time”). The period of time between the suspension of covenants as set forth above and the Reversion Time is referred to as the “Suspension Period.” If at any time during a Suspension Period any Subsidiary of the Issuer issues, assumes, incurs, enters into any guarantee of or otherwise becomes liable for (collectively, “Incur”) Indebtedness or enters into any transaction that, in each case, if Incurred or entered into at a time other than during a Suspension Period would have required such Subsidiary to become a Guarantor with respect to the Notes pursuant to Section 4.10, then, within 30 days of the Reversion Time, such Subsidiary shall become a Guarantor of the Notes, execute a supplemental indenture to the Indenture in the form attached as Exhibit E hereto and deliver an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee. With respect to any designation of a Subsidiary of the Issuer as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or any Investment in an Unrestricted Subsidiary made, in each case, after any Reversion Time, the amount of the aggregate Fair Market Value of each Subsidiary of the Issuer designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary (or the portion thereof allocable to the direct or indirect Investment of the Issuer therein in the case of a non-Wholly Owned Subsidiary) (as determined in good faith by the Issuer at the time of each such designation), together with the aggregate amount of all Investments made by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries in Unrestricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer pursuant to the proviso to Section 4.09(b) will be calculated as if the covenant described under such caption had been in effect prior to, but not during, the Suspension Period.

If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(4) or Section 6.01(5) with respect to the Issuer occurs and is continuing, then all unpaid principal of, and premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on all of the outstanding Notes shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.

(b)  At any time after a declaration of acceleration with respect to the Notes as described in clause (a) of this Section 6.02, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may rescind and cancel such declaration and its consequences:

(1) if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree;

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding.  A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of a Note in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default.  All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

Section 6.05  Control by Majority.

Subject to all provisions of this Indenture and applicable law, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes have the right to 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.  However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not any such directions are unduly prejudicial to such Holders) or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability.

Section 8.02  Legal Defeasance and Discharge.

(1) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Notes when such payments are due from the trust fund referred to in Section 8.04;

Notwithstanding anything in this Article 8 to the contrary, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Issuer from time to time upon the written request of the Issuer any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 8.04 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(1)), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

(a)  Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture (including, without limitation, Section 4.08), the Note Guarantees or the Notes (and any documents related thereto) with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (including consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07, any existing Default or Event of Default or non-compliance with any provision of this Indenture, the Note Guarantees or the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes).

(b)  Upon the written request of the Issuer accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amendment or supplement to this Indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02(b), the Trustee shall join with the Issuer and the Guarantors in the execution of such amendment or supplement to this Indenture unless such amendment or supplement directly affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such amendment or supplement.

(c)  It is not necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or waiver, but it is sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

(d)  After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Issuer shall deliver to the Holders affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver.  Any failure of the Issuer to deliver such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amendment, supplement or waiver.  Subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, voting as a single class, may waive compliance in a particular instance by the Issuer and the Guarantors with any provision of this Indenture, the Notes, or the Note Guarantees.  However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment, modification, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder):

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

(2) reduce the rate of or change or have the effect of changing the time for payment of interest, including defaulted interest, on such Notes;

(3) reduce the principal of or change or have the effect of changing the fixed maturity of such Notes, or change the date on which such Notes may be subject to redemption or reduce the redemption price therefor;

- 57 -

(4) make such Notes payable in money other than that stated in such Notes;

(5) make any change in provisions of this Indenture providing for the contractual right of each Holder to receive payment of principal of and interest on such Notes on or after the due date thereof or to bring suit to enforce such payment, or permitting Holders of a majority in principal amount of such Notes to waive Defaults or Events of Default;

(6) modify or change any provision of such Indenture or the related definitions affecting the ranking of such Notes or the related Note Guarantees in a manner which adversely affects the Holders;

(7) release any Guarantor constituting a Significant Subsidiary from any of its obligations under its Note Guarantee relating to such Notes or such Indenture, except in accordance with the terms of such Indenture.

Section 9.03  Compliance with Trust Indenture Act.

Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes shall be set forth in an amended or supplemental indenture that complies with the TIA as then in effect, but only if this Indenture is then qualified under the TIA.

Section 9.04  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.

Section 9.05  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, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, 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 9.06  Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc.

The Trustee shall sign any amendment or supplement to this Indenture authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee.  The Issuer may not sign an amendment or supplement to this Indenture until the Board of Directors of the Issuer approves of such amendment or supplement.  In executing any amendment or supplement to this Indenture, the Trustee shall be provided with and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 12.03, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amendment or supplement is authorized or permitted by this Indenture, and is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer and the Guarantors, enforceable in accordance with its terms.

ARTICLE 10

NOTE GUARANTEES

Section 10.01  Guarantee.

(a)  Subject to this Article 10, each Guarantor hereby, jointly and severally with any other Guarantor, unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Issuer hereunder or thereunder, that:

(1) the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other Obligations of the Issuer to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder shall be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and

(2) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other Obligations, that same shall be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise.

Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, each Guarantor shall be obligated, jointly and severally with any other Guarantor, to pay the same immediately.  Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

(b)  The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder are unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a Guarantor.  Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of merger, insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that this Note Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture (including payment in full of the principal thereof and interest thereon or as otherwise provided in this Indenture) or by release in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.

(c)  If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Issuer or the Guarantors, any amount paid by either the Issuer or the Guarantors to the Trustee or such Holder, this Note Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.

(d)  Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all Obligations guaranteed hereby.  Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (1) the maturity of the Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 for the purposes of this Note Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Obligations guaranteed hereby, and (2) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such Obligations as provided in Article 6, such Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Note Guarantee.

- 59 -

(e)  At any time that there is more than one Guarantor party hereto, all Guarantors desire to allocate among themselves (collectively, the “Contributing Guarantors”), in a fair and equitable manner, the economic consequences resulting from the performance of their respective obligations arising under this Indenture.  Accordingly, in the event any payment or distribution is made on any date by a Guarantor (a “Funding Guarantor”) under its Notes Guarantee at any time that there is more than one Guarantor party hereto such that its Aggregate Payments exceed its Fair Share as of such date, such Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each of the other Contributing Guarantors in an amount sufficient to cause each Contributing Guarantor’s Aggregate Payments to equal its Fair Share as of such date.  “Fair Share” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (a) the ratio of (i) the Fair Share Contribution Amount with respect to such Contributing Guarantor, to (ii) the aggregate of the Fair Share Contribution Amounts with respect to all Contributing Guarantors, multiplied by (b) the aggregate amount paid or distributed on or before such date by all Funding Guarantors under their respective Notes Guarantees in respect of the obligations guaranteed.  “Fair Share Contribution Amount” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, the maximum aggregate amount of the obligations of such Contributing Guarantor under its Notes Guarantee that would not render its obligations hereunder or thereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or any comparable applicable provisions of state law; provided that solely for purposes of calculating the Fair Share Contribution Amount with respect to any Contributing Guarantor for purposes of this Section 10.01, any assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor arising by virtue of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification or any rights to or obligations of contribution hereunder shall not be considered as assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor.  “Aggregate Payments” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (1) the aggregate amount of all payments and distributions made on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor in respect of its Notes Guarantee (including in respect of this Section 10.01), minus (2) the aggregate amount of all payments received on or before such date by such Guarantor from the other Contributing Guarantors as contributions under this Section 10.01.  The amounts payable as contributions hereunder shall be determined as of the date on which the related payment or distribution is made by the applicable Funding Guarantor.  Each Contributing Guarantor is a third party beneficiary to the contribution agreement set forth in this Section 10.01(e).  For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 10.01(e) shall limit or impair, by implication or otherwise, each Guarantor’s obligations under its Note Guarantee.

Section 10.02  Limitation on Guarantor Liability.

Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Note Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Note Guarantee.  To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor shall be limited to the maximum amount that shall, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 10, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Note Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

Section 10.03  Execution and Delivery of Note Guarantee.

To evidence its Note Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01, each Guarantor hereby agrees that a notation of such Note Guarantee substantially in the form attached as Exhibit D hereto shall be endorsed by an Officer of such Guarantor on each Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee at the time such Guarantor provides its Note Guarantee and that this Indenture (or a supplemental indenture hereto as provided in Section 4.10) shall be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by one of its Officers.

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Note Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Note Guarantee.

- 60 -

If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture or on the Note Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note on which a Note Guarantee is endorsed, the Note Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless.

The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Note Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors.

Section 10.04  Releases.

(a)  The Note Guarantee of a Guarantor will be released:

(1) in connection with any sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of that Guarantor (including by way of merger or consolidation) to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer;

(2) in connection with any sale or other disposition of all of the Equity Interests of that Guarantor to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer;

(3) if the Issuer designates such Guarantor to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture;

(4) in connection with any merger or consolidation of that Guarantor with and into the Issuer or any other Guarantor that is the surviving Person in such merger or consolidation, or upon the liquidation of such Guarantor following the transfer of all of its assets to the Issuer or another Guarantor;

(5) at the election of the Issuer, upon or after the release or discharge of the Guarantee by such Guarantor under the Existing Credit Agreement or, as applicable, the Guarantee by such Guarantor in respect of the Capital Markets Debt that resulted in the obligation of such Guarantor to Guarantee the Notes, except in each case a release or discharge by or as a result of payment in connection with the enforcement of remedies under such Guarantee (it being understood that a release subject to contingent reinstatement is still a release, and that if any such Guarantee is reinstated, such Note Guarantee will also be reinstated to the extent that such Guarantor would then be required to provide a Note Guarantee pursuant to this Indenture); provided that after giving effect to the release of the Note Guarantee of such Guarantor under this clause (5) (and all other substantially concurrent releases of Guarantees made by such Guarantor), such Guarantor does not Guarantee the Existing Credit Agreement or any Capital Markets Debt issued by the Issuer or a Guarantor with an aggregate outstanding principal amount in excess of $100.0 million;

(6) in the case of any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer that becomes a Guarantor at the Issuer’s election pursuant to clause (2) under Section 4.10 upon written notice to the Trustee of the Issuer’s election to release such Guarantor (unless otherwise provided in the applicable supplemental indenture pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary becomes a Guarantor) or in any other circumstance described in the applicable supplemental indenture pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary becomes a Guarantor; or

(7) upon legal defeasance in accordance with Article 8 or satisfaction and discharge in accordance with Article 11.

(b)  Any Guarantor not released from its obligations under its Note Guarantee as provided in this Section 10.04 shall remain liable for the full amount of principal of and interest on the Notes and for the other obligations of such Guarantor under this Indenture as provided in and subject to any limitations contained in this Article 10.

(c)  Upon delivery to the Trustee of an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the applicable requirement set forth in any of clauses (1) through (7) of Section 10.04(a) has been complied with, the Trustee, at the Issuer’s expense, will execute any documents reasonably requested by the Issuer to evidence the release of the applicable Note Guarantee.

ARTICLE 11

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

Section 11.01  Satisfaction and Discharge.

This Indenture will be discharged with respect to the Notes and will cease to be of further effect (except as to surviving rights of transfer or exchange of the Notes, as expressly provided for in this Indenture) as to all outstanding Notes under this Indenture when:

(1) either:

(a) all the Notes theretofore authenticated and delivered (except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes which have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Issuer and thereafter repaid to the Issuer or discharged from such trust) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

(b) all the Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable within one year or as a result of a mailing of a notice of redemption and the Issuer or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee cash or non-callable U.S. Government Obligations or a combination thereof in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on such Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Notes to the date of deposit (in the case of Notes that have become due and payable), redemption or their Stated Maturity, as applicable, together with irrevocable instructions from the Issuer or such Guarantor directing the Trustee to apply such funds to the payment thereof at maturity or redemption, as the case may be;

(2) the Issuer or any Guarantor has paid all other sums payable under such Indenture in respect of such Notes by the Issuer; and

(3) the Issuer has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent under such Indenture relating to the satisfaction and discharge of such Indenture in respect of such Notes have been complied with.

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money has been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to sub-clause (b) of clause (1) of this Section 11.01, the provisions of Sections 11.02 and 8.06 shall survive.  In addition, nothing in this Section 11.01 shall be deemed to discharge those provisions of Section 7.06, that, by their terms, survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

Section 11.02  Application of Trust Money.

Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 11.01 shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law; provided that, if there is a tender offer by the Issuer for outstanding Notes that is in progress at the time of such deposit, such money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 11.01 may be applied to pay any cash consideration for any Notes validly tendered into such tender offer and not validly withdrawn so long as prior to any such application the Issuer delivers an Officers’ Certificate to the Trustee certifying that after giving effect to such application, the amount remaining on deposit with the Trustee will be sufficient, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes (excluding Notes delivered to the Trustee for cancellation and Notes to be repurchased in such tender offer) for principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption, as the case may be.

- 62 -

To the extent that and so long as the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with Section 11.01 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Issuer’s and any Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 11.01; provided, however, that if the Issuer has made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Notes following the reinstatement of their obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or Government Securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.
