Section 2.20. Section 4.10 of the Indenture shall be amended by replacing all references therein to “Company” with “Parent” and by replacing all references therein to “pari passu Indebtedness” with “Pari Passu Indebtedness”.

Section 2.21. Section 4.11 of the Indenture shall be amended to:

Section 2.22. Section 4.13 of the Indenture shall be amended by deleting such section in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

If, after the date of this Indenture, any Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent that is not already a Guarantor or an Issuer guarantees any other Indebtedness of either of the Issuers or any Guarantor in excess of a De Minimis Guaranteed Amount, or any Domestic Subsidiary, if not then a Guarantor or an Issuer, incurs any Indebtedness under any Credit Facility, then in either case that Subsidiary will become a Guarantor by executing a supplemental indenture substantially in the form of Annex A hereto and delivering it to the Trustee within 20 Business Days of the date on which it guaranteed or incurred such Indebtedness, as the case may be, together with any Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel required by Section 9.06; provided, however, that the preceding shall not apply to Subsidiaries of the Parent that have properly been designated as Unrestricted Subsidiaries in accordance with this Indenture for so long as they

continue to constitute Unrestricted Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the preceding, any Guarantee of a Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent that was incurred pursuant to this Section 4.13 will be released at such time as such Guarantor ceases both (x) to guarantee any other Indebtedness of either of the Issuers and any other Guarantor in excess of a De Minimis Guaranteed Amount and (y) to be an obligor with respect to any Indebtedness under any Credit Facility.

Section 2.23. Section 4.14 of the Indenture shall be amended by replacing all references therein to “Company” with “Parent” except that clause (a) shall be amended by deleting such clause in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

(a) its corporate existence, and the corporate, partnership or other existence of each of its Restricted Subsidiaries, in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of the Parent or any such Restricted Subsidiary; and

Section 2.24. Section 5.01 of the Indenture shall be amended to be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

Neither the Parent nor any Issuer may, directly or indirectly, (1) consolidate or merge with or into another Person (whether or not the Parent or such Issuer is the survivor), or (2) sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets in one or more related transactions to another Person, unless:

(a) either (1) the Parent or such Issuer is the survivor or (2) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Parent or such Issuer, as the case may be) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition has been made is a Person organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state of the United States or the District of Columbia; provided, however, that Finance Corp. may not consolidate or merge with or into any Person other than a corporation satisfying such requirement so long as the Company is not a corporation;

(b) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Parent or such Issuer, as the case may be) or the Person to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition has been made assumes all the obligations of the Parent or such Issuer under the Notes, this Indenture and the applicable Registration Rights Agreement pursuant to a supplemental indenture or other agreement in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee;

(d) in the case of a transaction involving the Parent or the Company, but not Finance Corp., immediately after giving effect to such transaction and any related financing transactions on a pro forma basis as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, either;

(i) the Parent or the Company, as the case may be, or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Parent or the Company, as the case may be), or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition has been made would be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in the first paragraph of Section 4.09 hereof; or

(ii) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of the Parent, the Company or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Parent or the Company, as the case may be), or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition has been made, would be equal to or greater than the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of the Parent or the Company, as the case may be, immediately before such transactions; and

(e) the Parent or such Issuer, as the case may be, has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger or disposition and such supplemental indenture (if any) comply with this Indenture.

Notwithstanding the restrictions described in the foregoing clause (d), any Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent (other than the Issuers) may consolidate with, merge into or dispose of all or part of its properties and assets to the Parent without complying with the preceding clause (d) in connection with any such consolidation, merger or disposition.

Notwithstanding the second preceding paragraph of this Section 5.01, the Company may reorganize as any other form of entity in accordance with the following procedures provided that:

(i) the reorganization involves the conversion (by merger, sale, contribution or exchange of assets or otherwise) of the Parent or either Issuer into a form of entity other than a limited partnership formed under Delaware law;

(ii) the entity so formed by or resulting from such reorganization is an entity organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

(iii) the entity so formed by or resulting from such reorganization assumes all the obligations of the Parent or either Issuer under the Notes, this Indenture and the applicable Registration Rights Agreement pursuant to agreements reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee;

(iv) immediately after such reorganization no Default (other than a Reporting Default) or Event of Default exists; and

(v) such reorganization is not materially adverse to the Holders or Beneficial Owners of the Notes (for purposes of this clause (v), a reorganization will not be considered materially adverse to the Holders or Beneficial Owners of the Notes solely because the successor or survivor of such reorganization (a) is subject to federal or state income taxation as an entity or (b) is considered to be an “includible corporation” of an affiliated group of corporations within the meaning of Section 1504(b) of the Code or any similar state or local law).

Section 2.25. Section 5.02 of the Indenture shall be amended to be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

Upon any consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Parent or any Issuer in accordance with Section 5.01 hereof, the successor formed by such consolidation or into or with which the Parent or such Issuer, as the case may be, is merged or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition is made shall succeed to, and may exercise every right and power of, the Parent or such Issuer, as the case may be, under this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor had been named as the Parent or such Issuer herein and shall be substituted for the Parent or such Issuer, as the case may be (so that from and after the date of such consolidation, merger, sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition, the provisions of this Indenture referring to the “Parent,” the “Company” or “Finance Corp.,” as the case may be, shall refer instead to the successor and not to the Parent, the Company or Finance Corp., as the case may be); and thereafter (except in the case of a lease of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Parent or an Issuer, as the case may be), the Parent or such Issuer, as the case may be, shall be discharged and released from all obligations and covenants under this Indenture and the Notes. The Trustee shall enter into a supplemental indenture to evidence the succession and substitution of such successor and such discharge and release of the Parent or such Issuer, as the case may be.

(d) Delete clause (j) in its entirety and replace it with the following:

(j) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:

(1) is for relief against the Parent, the Company, Finance Corp., any of the Parent’s Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary of the Parent or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Parent that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary of the Parent in an involuntary case;

(2) appoints a Custodian of the Parent, the Company, Finance Corp., any of the Parent’s Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary of the Parent or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Parent that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary of the Parent or for all or substantially all of the property of the Parent, the Company, Finance Corp., any of the Parent’s Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary of the Parent or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Parent, that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary of the Parent; or

(3) orders the liquidation of the Parent, the Company, Finance Corp., any of the Parent’s Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary of the Parent or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Parent that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary of the Parent;

Section 2.27. Section 6.02 of the Indenture shall be amended to be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee, by notice to the Issuers, or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes, by notice to the Issuers and the Trustee, may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Upon any such declaration, the Notes shall become due and payable immediately, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, Additional Interest, if any, and premium, if any, thereon. Notwithstanding the preceding, if an Event of Default specified in clause (i) or (j) of Section 6.01 hereof occurs with respect to the Parent, the Company, Finance Corp., any of the Parent’s Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary of the Parent or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Parent that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary of the Parent, all outstanding Notes shall become due and payable without further action or notice, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, Additional Interest, if any, and premium, if any, thereon. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of all of the Holders rescind an acceleration and its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default (except with respect to nonpayment of principal, interest, premium or Additional Interest, if any, that have become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or waived.

Section 2.28. Section 8.03 of the Indenture shall be amended by deleting the first sentence of the first paragraph in its entirety and replacing with the following:

Upon the Issuers’ exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Issuers and the Parent shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from their obligations under the covenants contained in Article 4 (other than those in Sections 4.01, 4.02, 4.06 and 4.14) and in clause (d) of Section 5.01 hereof 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 (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder.
