In the case of a non-bank Subsequent Purchaser acting as a fiduciary for one or more third parties, in connection with an offer and sale to such purchaser pursuant to this Section 8.1, which is intended to be made in compliance with Rule 144A, such third parties shall be a Qualified Institutional Buyer, or a non- U.S. person outside the United States.

(d) Restrictive Legend. Upon original issuance by the Company, and until such time as the same is no longer required under the applicable requirements of the Securities Act, the Notes (and all securities issued in exchange therefor or in substitution thereof) shall bear such legends as are required under the Indenture and the Purchasers shall obtain such opinions or certificates required by the legend thereof in any sale or pledge or other transfer of the Notes.

(e) Restrictions on Sale/Confidentiality. Each Subsequent Purchaser must agree to be bound, and cause their transferees to be bound, by Sections 8, 10.2(c) and 10.14 of this Agreement as if it was a Purchaser hereunder.

(g) Rule 144A Information. The Company agrees that, in order to render the Notes eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act, while any of the Notes remain outstanding, and to the extent constitute registrable securities under the Registration Rights Agreement, it will make available, upon request, to any holder of Notes or prospective purchasers of Notes the information specified in Rule 144A(d)(4), unless the Company or Holdco is subject to the filing requirements of, and is in compliance with, Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

(h) Rule 144 Information. The Company agrees that, in order to render the Notes eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, while any of the Notes remain outstanding, it will make available “current public information” in a manner such that clause (c) of Rule 144 will be satisfied; provided such obligation does not require Holdco to file its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 during any specific time frame and for so long as Holdco is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and is guarantor of the Notes this covenant shall be deemed satisfied by Holdco making current public information available.

(i) [Reserved].

(j) European Economic Area. In relation to each Member State of the European Economic Area which has implemented the Prospectus Directive (each, a “Relevant Member State”), each Purchaser represents and agrees that with effect from and including the date on which the Prospectus Directive is implemented in that Relevant Member State (the “Relevant Implementation Date”) it has not made and will not make an offer of Notes to the public in that Relevant Member State prior to the publication of a prospectus in relation to the Notes which has been approved by the competent authority in that Relevant Member State or, where appropriate, approved in another Relevant Member State and notified to the competent authority in that Relevant Member State, all in accordance with the Prospectus Directive, except that it may, with effect from and including the Relevant Implementation Date, make an offer of Notes to the public in that Relevant Member State at any time:

(ii) to any legal entity which has two or more of (A) an average of at least 250 employees during the last financial year; (B) a total balance sheet of more than €43,000,000 and (C) an annual net turnover of more than €50,000,000, as shown in its last annual or consolidated accounts; and

(iii) in any other circumstances which do not require the publication by the Company of a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive.

For the purposes of this provision, the expression an “offer of Notes to the public” in relation to any Notes in any Relevant Member State means the communication in any form and by any means of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and the Notes to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase or subscribe the Notes, as the same may be varied in that Member State by any measure implementing the Prospectus Directive in that Member State and the expression “Prospectus Directive” means Directive 2003/71/EC and includes any relevant implementing measure in each Relevant Member State.

(k) Each Purchaser represents and agrees that:

(i) it has only communicated or caused to be communicated and will only communicate or cause to be communicated an invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity (within the meaning of Section 21 of the Financial Services and Markets Xxx 0000 (as amended) (the “FSMA”)) received by it in connection with the issue or sale of the Notes in circumstances in which Section 21(1) of the FSMA does not apply to the Company;

(ii) it has complied and will comply with all applicable provisions of the FSMA with respect to anything done by it in relation to the Notes in, from or otherwise involving the United Kingdom; and

(iii) none of it and its Affiliates have entered nor will enter into any contractual arrangement with respect to the distribution of the Notes except with the prior written consent of the Company.

8.2. Procedures and Management Cooperation in Private Offerings.

The Company agrees that, at the request of the Purchasers, the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Notes to (i) be registered in book-entry form in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC pursuant to a customary form DTC Agreement, and (ii) be eligible for the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. PORTAL market. At the request of the Purchasers, management of Holdco will in connection with a transfer of the Notes, use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Holders in any effort by the Holders to sell the Notes, including meeting with potential purchasers and providing due diligence information to potential purchasers; provided that (1) such efforts shall not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries; (2) the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not be required to provide any assistance at any time a Shelf Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) is effective and not suspended; (3) the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not be required to provide any assistance at any time any event or development which would permit them to suspend a Shelf Registration Statement has occurred; (4) the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not be obligated to provide assistance more often than once in each 12 month period or more than three times during the term of the Notes; (5) the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not be required to incur any expense or cost other than those associated with attending meetings in its offices and producing diligence materials at such location; (6) so long as Holdco or the Company is subject to or complying with the reporting requirements of Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, any private placement memorandum provided by the Company and Subsidiaries shall not be more extensive than that customarily provided by such reporting companies in a private placement; (7) other than as required by Law or as the Company may otherwise agree, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall have no indemnity obligations to the Purchasers or potential purchasers; and (8) each potential purchaser shall agree to be bound to confidentiality arrangements similar to those set for in Section 10.14 of this Agreement.

8.3. No Integration.

The Company will not, and will not permit its Affiliates to, make any offer or sale of securities of any class if, as a result of the doctrine of “integration” referred to in Rule 502, such offer or sale would render invalid, for the purpose of (i) the sale of the Notes by the Company to the Purchasers or (ii) the resale of Notes, as the case may be, by the Purchasers to Subsequent Purchasers or (iii) the resale of Notes by any such Subsequent Purchaser to others any applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by Section 4(2) thereof or by Rule 144A thereunder or otherwise.

9.3. Waiver of Punitive Damages.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, none of the parties hereto shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against the other parties (including their respective Affiliates, partners, stockholders, members, officers, directors, agents, employees and controlling persons), on any theory of liability for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out

The rights and remedies provided herein and in the Notes are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies that the parties or Purchasers would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on the Company in any case shall entitle the Company to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the other parties hereto or the Purchasers to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

Each Purchaser agrees that in the event it intends to disclose confidential information in accordance with clauses (ii), (iii) or (iv) above, it shall, to the extent reasonably practicable, provide the Company notice of such requirement prior to making any disclosure so that the Company may seek an appropriate protective order or confidential treatment of the information being disclosed.
