The terms and provisions contained in the Securities, annexed hereto as Exhibits A and B, and the Guarantees, annexed hereto as Exhibit E, shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture and, to the extent applicable, the Issuer, the Guarantors, and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby.

Securities offered and sold in reliance on Rule 144A shall be issued initially in the form of one or more permanent global Securities in registered form, substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A (the “U.S. Global Securities”), deposited with the Trustee, as custodian for the Depository, duly executed by the Issuer and authenticated by the Trustee as hereinafter provided, and shall bear the legends set forth in Section 2.14.  The aggregate principal amount of the U.S. Global Securities may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee, as custodian for the Depository, as hereinafter provided.

Securities issued in exchange for interests in the U.S. Global Securities pursuant to Section 2.15 may be issued in the form of permanent certificated Securities in registered form and shall bear the first legend set forth in Section 2.14.

The Offshore Physical Securities and the U.S. Physical Securities are sometimes collectively herein referred to as the “Physical Securities.”  The U.S. Global Securities and the Offshore Global Securities are sometimes referred to herein as the “Global Securities.”

2.2.         Execution and Authentication.

One Officer or an Assistant Secretary, of the Issuer (each of whom shall, in each case, have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate actions) shall sign the Securities for the Issuer by manual or facsimile signature.

If an Officer whose signature is on a Security was an Officer at the time of such execution but no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Security, the Security shall nevertheless be valid.

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

The Trustee shall authenticate (i) Initial Notes for original issue on the Issue Date in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $300,000,000, (ii) pursuant to the Exchange Offer, Exchange Notes from time to time for issue only in exchange for a like principal amount of Initial Notes and (iii) subject to compliance with Section 4.4 and Section 4.16, one or more series of Securities for original issue after the Issue Date (such Securities to be substantially in the form of Exhibit A or B, as the case may be) in an unlimited amount (and if in the form of Exhibit A the same principal amount of Exchange Notes in exchange therefor upon consummation of a registered exchange offer), in each case upon written orders of the Issuer in the form of an Officers’ Certificate, which Officers’ Certificate shall, in the case of any issuance pursuant to clause (iii) above, certify that such issuance is in compliance with Section 4.4 and Section 4.16.  In addition, each such Officers’ Certificate shall specify the amount of Securities to be authenticated, the date on which the Securities are to be authenticated, whether the Securities are to be Initial Notes, Exchange Notes or Securities issued under clause (iii) of the preceding sentence and the aggregate principal amount of Securities outstanding on the date of authentication, and shall further specify the amount of such Securities to be issued as a Global Security or Physical Securities.  Such Securities shall initially be in the form of one or more Global Securities, which (i) shall represent, and shall be denominated in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of, the Securities to be issued, (ii) shall be registered in the name of the Depository for such Global Security or Securities or its nominee and (iii) shall be delivered by the Trustee to the Depository or pursuant to the Depository’s instruction.  All Securities issued under this Indenture shall vote and consent together on all matters as one class and no series of Securities will have the right to vote or consent as a separate class on any matter.

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent reasonably acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate the Securities.  Unless otherwise provided in the appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate Securities whenever the Trustee may do so.  Each reference in this Indenture

37

to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent.  An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with the Issuer and Affiliates of the Issuer.

The Securities shall be issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000.

2.3.         Registrar and Paying Agent.

The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, where (a) Securities may be presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”), (b) Securities may be presented or surrendered for payment (“Paying Agent”) and (c) notices and demands to or upon the Issuer in respect of the Securities and this Indenture may be served.  The Issuer may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Securities 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 in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, for such purposes.  The Issuer may act as its own Registrar or Paying Agent except that for the purposes of Articles Three and Eight and Sections 4.17 and 4.18, neither the Issuer nor any Affiliate of the Issuer shall act as Paying Agent.  The Registrar shall keep a register of the Securities 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 “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent.  The Issuer hereby initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar and Paying Agent until such time as the Trustee has resigned or a successor has been appointed.

The Issuer shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Agent not a party to this Indenture, which agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such Agent.  The Issuer shall notify the Trustee, in advance, of the name and address of any such Agent.  If the Issuer fails to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such.

The Trustee is authorized to enter into a letter of representations with the Depository in the form provided by the Issuer and to act in accordance with such letter.

2.4.         Paying Agent to Hold Assets in Trust.

The Issuer shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that each Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all assets held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, the Securities (whether such assets have been distributed to it by the Issuer or any other obligor on the Securities), and shall notify the Trustee of any Default or Event of Default by the Issuer (or any other obligor on the Securities) in making any such payment.  If either the Issuer or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate such assets and hold them as a separate trust fund.  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 or payment Event of 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

38

distributed.  Upon distribution to the Trustee of all assets that shall have been delivered by the Issuer to the Paying Agent, the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for such assets.

2.5.         Holder Lists.

The Trustee 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.  If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee on or before each Interest Payment Date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of Holders, which list may be conclusively relied upon by the Trustee.

2.6.         Transfer and Exchange.

(a)           Subject to the provisions of Sections 2.14 and 2.15, when Securities are presented to the Registrar or a co-Registrar with a request to register the transfer of such Securities or to exchange such Securities for an equal principal amount of Securities of other authorized denominations, the Registrar or co-Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested if its requirements for such transaction are met; provided, however, that the Securities surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Registrar or co-Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.  To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Securities at the Registrar’s or co-Registrar’s request.  No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes or similar governmental charge payable upon exchanges or transfers pursuant to Section 2.2, 2.10, 3.6, 4.17, 4.18 or 9.5).  The Registrar or co-Registrar shall not be required to register the transfer of or exchange of any Security (i) during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the mailing of a notice of redemption of Securities and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, (ii) selected for redemption in whole or in part pursuant to Article Three, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part, and (iii) during a Change of Control Offer, a Net Proceeds Offer or an ABL Net Proceeds Offer if such Security is tendered pursuant to such Change of Control Offer, Net Proceeds Offer or ABL Net Proceeds Offer and not withdrawn.  A Global Security may be transferred, in whole but not in part, in the manner provided in this Section 2.6(a), only to a nominee of the Depository for such Global Security, or to the Depository, or a successor Depository for such Global Security selected or approved by the Issuer, or to a nominee of such successor Depository.

(b)           If at any time the Depository for the Global Security or Securities notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depository for such Global Security or Securities or the Issuer becomes aware that the Depository has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, the Issuer shall appoint a successor Depository with respect to such Global Security or Securities.  If a successor Depository for such Global Security or Securities has not been appointed within 90 days after the Issuer receives such notice or become aware of such ineligibility, the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Officers’ Certificate

39

for the authentication and delivery of Securities, shall authenticate and make available for delivery, Securities in definitive form, in an aggregate principal amount at maturity equal to the principal amount at maturity of the Global Security representing such Securities, in exchange for such Global Security.  The Issuer shall reimburse the Registrar, the Depository and the Trustee for expenses they incur in documenting such exchanges and issuances of Securities in definitive form.

The Issuer may at any time and in their sole discretion determine that the Securities shall no longer be represented by such Global Security or Global Securities.  In such event the Issuer will execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a written order for the authentication and delivery of individual Securities in exchange in whole or in part for such Global Security or Global Securities, will authenticate and make available for delivery individual Securities in definitive form in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Global Security or Global Securities in exchange for such Global Security or Global Securities.

In any exchange provided for in any of the preceding two paragraphs, the Issuer will execute and the Trustee will authenticate and make available for delivery individual Securities in definitive registered form in authorized denominations.  Upon the exchange of a Global Security for individual Securities, such Global Security shall be cancelled by the Trustee.  Securities issued in exchange for a Global Security pursuant to this Section 2.6(b) shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depository for such Global Security, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee.  The Trustee shall make available for delivery such Securities to the Persons in whose names such Securities are so registered.

Neither the Issuer, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Registrar will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in a Global Security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.

2.7.         Replacement Securities.

If a mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee or if the Holder of a Security claims that the Security has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Security if the Trustee’s requirements are met.  If required by the Trustee or the Issuer, such Holder must provide an indemnity bond or other indemnity, sufficient in the judgment of both the Issuer and the Trustee, to protect the Issuer, the Trustee or any Agent from any loss which any of them may suffer if a Security is replaced.  The Issuer may charge such Holder for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in replacing a Security pursuant to this Section 2.7, including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel.

Every replacement Security is an additional obligation of the Issuer.

2.8.         Outstanding Securities.

Securities outstanding at any time are all the Securities that have been authenticated by the Trustee except those cancelled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described

40

in this Section as not outstanding.  A Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer, any Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates holds the Security.

If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.7 (other than a mutilated Security surrendered for replacement), it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Security is held by a bona fide purchaser or a protected purchaser.  A mutilated Security ceases to be outstanding upon surrender of such Security and replacement thereof pursuant to Section 2.7.  If the principal amount of any Security is considered paid under Section 4.1, it ceases to be outstanding and interest ceases to accrue.

If on a Redemption Date or the Maturity Date the Paying Agent (other than the Issuer or a Subsidiary) holds U.S. Legal Tender sufficient to pay all of the principal, premium, if any, and interest due on the Securities payable on that date, then on and after that date such Securities cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue.

2.9.         Treasury Securities.

In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Securities have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Securities owned by the Issuer, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its respective Affiliates 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 Securities that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee knows or has reason to know are so owned shall be disregarded.

2.10.       Temporary Securities.

Until definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Securities.  Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of definitive Securities but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Securities, as evidenced by execution of such temporary Securities by the Issuer.  Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Securities in exchange for temporary Securities.  Until such exchange, temporary Securities shall be entitled to the same rights, benefits and privileges as definitive Securities.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the Securities are represented by a Global Security, such Global Security may be in typewritten form.

2.11.       Cancellation.

The Issuer at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee for cancellation.  The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment.  The Trustee or, at the direction of the Trustee, the Registrar or the Paying Agent (other than the Issuer or a Subsidiary), and no one else, shall cancel and shall dispose of all Securities surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation.  Subject to Section 2.7, the Issuer may not issue new Securities to replace Securities that they have paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.  If the Issuer or any Guarantor shall acquire any of the Securities, such acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction

41

of the Indebtedness represented by such Securities unless and until the same are surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation pursuant to this Section 2.11.

2.12.       Defaulted Interest.

If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest on the Securities, it shall, unless the Trustee fixes another record date pursuant to Section 6.10, pay the defaulted interest, plus (to the extent lawful) any interest payable on the defaulted interest, in any lawful manner.  The Issuer may pay the defaulted interest to the Persons who are Holders 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 or the next succeeding Business Day if such date is not a Business Day.  At least 15 days before any such subsequent special record date, the Issuer shall mail to each Holder, with a copy to the Trustee, 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.

2.13.       CUSIP and ISIN Numbers.

The Issuer in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” and “ISIN” numbers, and if so, the Trustee shall use the CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption or exchange as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP and ISIN numbers printed in the notice or on the Securities, and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities and that any such redemption or exchange shall not be affected by any defect or omission of such CUSIP and ISIN numbers.  The Issuer will promptly notify the Trustee of any change in CUSIP or ISIN number.

2.14.       Restrictive Legends.

Unless and until a Security is exchanged for an Exchange Note or sold in connection with an effective registration statement under the Securities Act pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, (i) the U.S. Global Securities and U.S. Physical Securities shall bear the legend set forth below (the “Private Placement Legend”) on the face thereof and (ii) the Offshore Physical Securities, until at least the 41st day after the Issue Date and receipt by the Issuer and the Trustee of a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto, shall bear the legend set forth below on the face thereof.

Each Global Security shall also bear the following legend on the face thereof (the “Global Security Legend”):

2.15. Book-Entry Provisions for Global Security.

(a) Each Global Security initially shall (i) be registered in the name of the Depository or the nominee of such Depository, (ii) be delivered to the Trustee as custodian for such Depository and (iii) bear legends as set forth in Section 2.14.

Members of, or participants in, the Depository (“Agent Members”) shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Security held on their behalf by the Depository, or the Trustee as its custodian, or under any Global Security, and the Depository may be treated by the Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee as the absolute owner of each Global Security for all purposes whatsoever.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein

44

shall prevent the Issuer, the Trustee or any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depository or impair, as between the Depository and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a Holder of any Security.

3.2. Selection of Securities to Be Redeemed.

In the event that less than all of the Securities are to be redeemed at any time, selection of such Securities for redemption will be made by the Trustee in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which such Securities are listed or, if such Securities are not then listed on a national securities exchange, on a pro rata basis; provided, however, that no Securities of a principal amount of $2,000 or less shall be redeemed in part; and provided, further, that if a partial redemption is made with the Net Cash Proceeds of an Asset Sale or Equity Offering, or any Taking or Destruction, selection of the Securities or portions thereof for redemption shall be made by the Trustee on a pro rata basis or on as nearly a pro rata basis as is practicable (subject to the procedures of the Depository), unless such method is otherwise prohibited.

3.3. Notice of Redemption.

At least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a Redemption Date, the Issuer shall mail a notice of redemption by first class mail, postage prepaid, to each Holder whose Securities are to be redeemed at its registered address.  At the Issuer’s request at least 45 days before a Redemption Date (unless a shorter period shall be acceptable to the Trustee), the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Issuer’s name and at the Issuer’s expense.  Each notice of redemption shall identify the Securities to be redeemed and shall state:

(a) the Redemption Date;

(b) the Redemption Price and the amount of accrued interest, if any, to be paid;

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

(d) that Securities called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the Redemption Price plus accrued interest, if any;

49

(e) that, unless the Issuer defaults in making the redemption payment, interest on Securities called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the Redemption Date, and the only remaining right of the Holders of such Securities is to receive payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest, if any, upon surrender to the Paying Agent of the Securities redeemed;

(f) if any Security is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Security to be redeemed and that, after the Redemption Date, and upon surrender of such Security, a new Security or Securities in aggregate principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued;

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

(h) the Paragraph of the Securities pursuant to which the Securities are to be redeemed; and

(i) the CUSIP or ISIN number, if any, printed on the Securities being redeemed and a statement that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP or ISIN number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Securities.

The notice, if mailed in a manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice.  In any case, failure to give such notice by mail or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Security designated for redemption in whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Security.

3.4. Effect of Notice of Redemption.

Once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 3.3, Securities called for redemption become due and payable on the Redemption Date and at the Redemption Price plus accrued interest, if any.  Upon surrender to the Trustee or Paying Agent, such Securities called for redemption shall be paid at the Redemption Price (which shall include accrued interest thereon to the Redemption Date), but 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.

3.5. Deposit of Redemption Price.

On or before 11:00 a.m. New York time on the Redemption Date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent U.S. Legal Tender sufficient to pay the Redemption Price plus accrued interest, if any, of all Securities to be redeemed on that date.

If the Issuer complies with the preceding paragraph, then, unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of such Redemption Price plus accrued interest, if any, interest on the Securities to be

50

redeemed will cease to accrue on and after the applicable Redemption Date, whether or not such Securities are presented for payment.

3.6. Securities Redeemed In Part.

Upon surrender of a Security that is to be redeemed in part only, the Trustee shall upon written instruction from the Issuer authenticate for the Holder a new Security or Securities in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Security surrendered.

In addition, following the consummation of the Exchange Offer, whether or not required by the rules and regulations of the Commission, the Company shall file a copy of all such information and reports with the Commission for public availability within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and regulations (unless the Commission will not accept such a filing) and make such information available to securities analysts and prospective investors upon written request to the Company.

4.11. Waiver of Stay, Extension or Usury Laws.

The Company and each Guarantor covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will 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 Company or such Guarantor from paying all or any portion of the principal of, premium, if any, and/or interest on the Securities or the Guarantee of any such Guarantor 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) each 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.

4.12. Limitations on Transactions with Affiliates.

(a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, enter into or permit to exist any transaction or series of related transactions (including, without limitation, the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of any property or the rendering of any service) with, or for the benefit of, any of its Affiliates (each an “Affiliate Transaction”), other than (x) Affiliate Transactions permitted under paragraph (b) below and (y) Affiliate Transactions on terms that are no less favorable than those that could reasonably have been obtained in a comparable transaction at such time on an arm’s-length basis from a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary.  All Affiliate Transactions (and each series of related Affiliate Transactions which are similar or part of a common plan) involving aggregate payments or other property with a fair market value in excess of $10.0 million shall be approved by the Board of Directors of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case

57

may be, such approval to be evidenced by a Board Resolution stating that such Board of Directors has determined that such transaction complies with the foregoing provisions.  If the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company enters into an Affiliate Transaction (or a series of related Affiliate Transactions related to a common plan) that involves an aggregate fair market value of more than $25.0 million, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, shall, prior to the consummation thereof, obtain a favorable opinion as to the fairness of such transaction or series of related transactions to the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, from a financial point of view, from an Independent Financial Advisor and file the same with the Trustee.

(b) The restrictions set forth in Section 4.12(a) shall not apply to:

(iii) any agreement as in effect or entered into as of the Issue Date or any amendment thereto or any transaction contemplated thereby (including pursuant to any amendment thereto) or in any replacement agreement thereto so long as any such amendment or replacement agreement is not more disadvantageous to the Holders in any material respect than the original agreement as in effect on the Issue Date;

(iv) transactions effected as part of a Qualified Receivables Transaction;

(v) Restricted Payments and Permitted Investments permitted by this Indenture (other than transactions with a Person that is an Affiliate other than as a result of such Investment);

(vi) the issuance of securities or other payments, awards or grants in cash, securities or otherwise pursuant to, or the funding of, employment arrangements, stock options and stock ownership plans or similar employee benefit plans approved by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith; and

(vii) transactions with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary) that is an Affiliate of the Company solely because the Company owns, directly or indirectly, any Capital Stock of such Person.

4.13. Limitation on Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Subsidiaries.

The Company shall not, and shall not cause or permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than a Restricted Subsidiary that has executed a Guarantee) to, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or permit to exist or become effective any encumbrance or restriction on

58

the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company to (a) pay dividends or make any other distribution on or in respect of its Capital Stock; (b) make loans or advances or pay any Indebtedness or other obligation owed to the Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary of the Company; or (c) transfer any of its property or assets to the Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, except for such encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of:

(vi) agreements existing or entered into on the Issue Date to the extent and in the manner such agreements are in effect on the Issue Date;

(vii) purchase money obligations for property acquired in the ordinary course of business or Capitalized Lease Obligations that impose restrictions of the nature discussed in clause (c) above on the property so acquired;

(viii) contracts for the sale of assets, including, without limitation, customary restrictions with respect to a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company pursuant to an agreement that has been entered into for the sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the Capital Stock or assets of such Restricted Subsidiary;

(ix) secured Permitted Indebtedness and secured Indebtedness otherwise permitted to be incurred pursuant to Sections 4.4 and 4.16 that limit the right of the debtor to dispose of the assets securing such Indebtedness;

(xiv) any agreement governing Permitted Indebtedness or Indebtedness otherwise permitted to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.4; provided that the provisions relating to such encumbrance or restriction contained in such Indebtedness, taken as a whole, are no less favorable to the Company in any material respect as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in its reasonable and good faith judgment than the provisions contained in the Credit Agreement or in this Indenture as in effect on the Issue Date.

4.14. Limitation on the Issuance and Sale of Capital Stock of Restricted Subsidiaries.

The Company shall not sell, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, directly or indirectly, to issue or sell, any shares of Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary (including options, warrants or other rights to purchase shares of such Capital Stock) except:

(a) to the Company or a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of the Company;

(b) issuance of directors’ qualifying shares or sales to foreign nationals of shares of Capital Stock of Foreign Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company, to the extent required by applicable law;

(c) if, immediately after giving effect to such issuance or sale, such Restricted Subsidiary would no longer constitute a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company and any Investment in such Person remaining after giving effect to such issuance or sale would have been permitted to be made under Section 4.3 if made on the date of such issuance or sale; or

(d) the sale or issuance of Common Stock that is Qualified Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, if the proceeds from such issuance and sale are applied in accordance with Section 4.18.

The Company shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, directly or indirectly, to guarantee any Indebtedness of the Company or any Indebtedness of any Domestic Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, unless (i) such Restricted Subsidiary simultaneously executes and delivers a supplemental indenture to this Indenture providing for a senior secured Guarantee of payment of the Securities by such Restricted Subsidiary and (ii) such Restricted Subsidiary waives and will not in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of any rights of reimbursement, indemnity or subrogation or any other rights against the

60

Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary as a result of any payment by such Restricted Subsidiary under its Guarantee so long as any Securities remain outstanding.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, or Section 4.20, any Guarantee by a Restricted Subsidiary may provide by its terms that it shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon (i) any sale, exchange or transfer, to any Person not an Affiliate of the Company, of all of the Company’s and each Restricted Subsidiary’s Capital Stock in, or all or substantially all the assets of, such Restricted Subsidiary (which sale, exchange or transfer is not prohibited by this Indenture), (ii) the release or discharge of the guarantee, if any, which resulted in the creation of such Guarantee, except a discharge or release by or as a result of payment under such guarantee or (iii) the designation of such Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.

4.16. Limitation on Liens.

The Company shall not, and shall not cause or permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or permit or suffer to exist any Liens of any kind against or upon any property or assets of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries whether owned or leased on the Issue Date or acquired after the Issue Date, or any proceeds therefrom, or assign or otherwise convey any right to receive income or profits therefrom unless:

(a) in the case of Liens on any Collateral, such Lien expressly has Junior Lien Priority on the Collateral relative to the Securities, and the terms of the Indebtedness secured by such Liens having Junior Lien Priority are substantially identical to those of the Securities (other than as to issue price, interest rate, yield and redemption terms); provided that such Indebtedness may (a) contain terms and covenants that are, in the reasonable opinion of the Company, less restrictive to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries than the terms and covenants under the Securities and (b) contain terms and covenants that are more restrictive to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries than the terms and covenants under the Securities so long as prior to or substantially simultaneously with the issuance of any such Indebtedness, the Securities and this Indenture are amended to contain any such more restrictive terms and covenants; provided further, that such Indebtedness shall have (i) a Weighted Average Life to Maturity that is greater than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Securities and (ii) a stated maturity date that is the later than that of the Securities; and

(b) in all other cases, the Securities are equally and ratably secured (or secured on a senior basis to such Lien, if such Lien secures any subordinated Indebtedness),

except for the following Liens, which are expressly permitted:

(i) Liens existing as of the Issue Date (other than Liens referred to clause (iv) below); provided that in the case of any property encumbered by any Mortgage, such liens shall be limited to those that constitute Permitted Encumbrances (as defined in such Mortgage);

61

(ii) Liens on Collateral securing Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement permitted to be incurred pursuant to clause (2) of the definition of “Permitted Indebtedness”; provided that the holders of such Liens agree to be bound by the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement in their capacity as Bank Lenders;

(iii) Liens on Collateral securing Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations; provided that (i) on the date of the incurrence of such Indebtedness, and after giving pro forma effect thereto and to the application of the proceeds thereof, the Consolidated First Lien Leverage Ratio would be no greater than 2.0 to 1.0 and (ii) that the holders of such Liens agree to be bound by the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement in their capacity as holders of Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations;

(iv) Liens securing the Initial Notes issued on the Issue Date (but not any other Initial Notes) and the Exchange Notes with respect to such Initial Notes and any Guarantee thereof;

(v) Liens in favor of the Company or a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of the Company on assets of any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company; provided that such Liens are either junior in priority to the Liens securing the Securities or are not secured by Collateral;

(vi) Liens securing Refinancing Indebtedness which is incurred to Refinance any Indebtedness (including, without limitation, Acquired Indebtedness) which has been secured by a Lien permitted under this Indenture and which has been incurred in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture; provided, however, that such Liens:

(1) are no less favorable to the Holders and are not more favorable to the lienholders with respect to such Liens than the Liens in respect of the Indebtedness being Refinanced; and

(2) do not extend to or cover any property or assets of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries not securing the Indebtedness so Refinanced;

(vii) Liens securing Indebtedness of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company that are not Guarantors so long as such Indebtedness is otherwise permitted under this Indenture; and

(viii) Permitted Liens.

4.17. Change of Control.

(a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Company shall be obligated to make an offer to purchase (the “Change of Control Offer”), and shall purchase, on a Business Day (the “Change of Control Payment Date”) as described below, all or a portion of the then outstanding Securities at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the Change of Control Payment Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest

62

payment date).  The Change of Control Offer shall remain open for at least 20 Business Days and until the close of business on the Change of Control Payment Date.  Notwithstanding the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Company shall not be obligated to repurchase the Securities pursuant to this Section 4.17 in the event that the Company has exercised its right to redeem all the Securities under the terms of Article Three of this Indenture and paragraph 5 of the Securities.

(b) Within 30 days following the date upon which a Change of Control occurs, the Company shall send, by first class mail, a notice to each Holder, with a copy to the Trustee, which notice shall govern the terms of the Change of Control Offer.  The notice to the Holders shall contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Securities pursuant to the Change of Control Offer.  Such notice shall state:

(i) that the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.17 and that all Securities tendered and not withdrawn will be accepted for payment;

(ii) the purchase price (including the amount of accrued interest) and the Change of Control Payment Date, which shall be a Business Day, that is not earlier than 30 days or later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed, other than as may be required by law;

(iii) that any Security not tendered will continue to accrue interest;

(iv) that, unless the Company defaults in making payment therefor, any Security accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer shall cease to accrue interest after the Change of Control Payment Date;

(v) that Holders electing to have a Security purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender the Security, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the Security completed, to the Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third Business Day prior to the Change of Control Payment Date;

(vi) that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if the Paying Agent receives, not later than the second Business Day prior to the Change of Control Payment Date, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Securities the Holder delivered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Security purchased;

(vii) that Holders whose Securities are purchased only in part will be issued new Securities in a principal amount equal to the unpurchased portion of the Securities surrendered; and

(viii) the circumstances and relevant facts regarding such Change of Control.

The Company shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if any other Person makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and

63

otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 4.17 applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and purchases all Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer.  The provisions of this Section 4.17 and other provisions contained in this Indenture relating to the Company’s obligation to make a Change of Control Offer may be waived or modified with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Securities.

On or before the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company shall (i) accept for payment Securities or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, (ii) deposit with the Paying Agent U.S. Legal Tender sufficient to pay the purchase price plus accrued interest, if any, of all Securities so tendered and (iii) deliver to the Trustee Securities so accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the Securities or portions thereof being purchased by the Company.  The Paying Agent shall promptly mail to the Holders of Securities so accepted payment in an amount equal to the purchase price plus accrued interest, if any, and upon written order of the Company the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail to such Holders new Securities equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Securities surrendered.  Any Securities not so accepted shall be promptly mailed by the Company to the Holder thereof.  For purposes of this Section 4.17, the Trustee shall act as the Paying Agent.

Any amounts remaining with the Paying Agent after the purchase of Securities pursuant to a Change of Control Offer shall be returned by the Trustee to the Company.

The Company shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Securities pursuant to a Change of Control Offer.  To the extent the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.17, the Company shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.17 by virtue thereof.

4.18. Limitation on Asset Sales.

(a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale of any assets that do not constitute ABL Collateral unless:

(i) the Company or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value of the assets sold or otherwise disposed of (as determined in good faith by the Company’s senior management or, in the case of an Asset Sale in excess of $25.0 million, the Board of Directors of the Company);

(ii) at least 75% of the consideration received by the Company or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, from such Asset Sale shall be in the form of (x) cash or Cash Equivalents, (y) properties and assets to be owned by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and used in a Permitted Business; provided if the assets to be disposed of in such Asset Sale constitute Notes Collateral, such properties or assets to be owned by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary constitute Notes Collateral, or

64

(z) Capital Stock in one or more Persons engaged in a Permitted Business that are or thereby become Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company; provided, further, that if the assets to be disposed of in such Asset Sale constitute Notes Collateral, such properties or assets held by such Persons the Capital Stock of which is to be owned by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary constitute Notes Collateral, and, in each case, such consideration is received at the time of such disposition; provided, further, however, that the amount of (a) any liabilities (as shown on the Company’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet) of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary (other than (A) liabilities that are unsecured or secured by Liens junior to the Lien on the Collateral securing the Securities and (B) liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Securities) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets, and (b) any notes or other securities received by the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash or Cash Equivalents within 90 days after such Asset Sale (to the extent of the cash or Cash Equivalents so received) shall be deemed to be cash or Cash Equivalents actually so converted for the purposes of this provision only; and

(iii) upon the consummation of such Asset Sale, the Company shall apply, or cause such Restricted Subsidiary to apply, the Net Cash Proceeds relating to such Asset Sale within 365 days of receipt thereof to make an Investment (i) in properties and assets that replace the properties and assets that were the subject of such Asset Sale or (ii) in properties and assets that will be used by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary in a Permitted Business (clauses (i) and (ii) collectively referred to as “Replacement Assets”); provided that if the assets disposed of constituted Notes Collateral, any Replacement Assets constitute Notes Collateral; and

(iv) the Net Cash Proceeds from any such Asset Sale of Notes Collateral are paid directly by the purchaser thereof to the Notes Collateral Agent to be held in trust in an Asset Sale Proceeds Account for application in accordance with this covenant and, if any property other than cash or Cash Equivalents is included in such Net Cash Proceeds, such property shall be made subject to the Liens under the Security Documents.

On the 366th day after such Asset Sale or such earlier date, if any, as the Board of Directors of the Company or of such Restricted Subsidiary determines not to apply the Net Cash Proceeds relating to such Asset Sale as set forth in clause (iii) of the immediately preceding paragraph (each, a “Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date”), such aggregate amount of Net Cash Proceeds which have not been applied on or before such Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date (each a “Net Proceeds Offer Amount”) shall be applied by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary to make an offer to purchase from the Holders of the Securities, and, if required by the terms of any Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations, from the holders of such Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations (the “Net Proceeds Offer”) on a date (the “Net Proceeds Offer Payment Date”) not less than 30 nor more than 60 days following the applicable Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date, on a pro rata basis, an amount of Securities and Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations equal to the Net Proceeds Offer Amount at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities and Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the date of purchase.

65

If at any time any non-cash consideration received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, as the case may be, in connection with such Asset Sale is converted into or sold or otherwise disposed of for cash (other than interest received with respect to any such non-cash consideration), then such conversion or disposition shall be deemed to constitute an Asset Sale hereunder as of the date of such conversion or disposition and the Net Cash Proceeds thereof shall be applied in accordance with this Section 4.18.

The Company may defer the Net Proceeds Offer until there is an aggregate unutilized Net Proceeds Offer Amount equal to or in excess of $25.0 million resulting from one or more Asset Sales (at which time, the entire unutilized Net Proceeds Offer Amount, and not just the amount in excess of $25.0 million, shall be applied as required pursuant to the second preceding paragraph of this Section 4.18).

Notice of each Net Proceeds Offer pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 4.18 shall be mailed or caused to be mailed, by first class mail, by the Company within 25 days following the applicable Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date to all Holders at their last registered addresses, with a copy to the Trustee.  A Net Proceeds Offer shall remain open for a period of 20 Business Days or such longer period as may be required by law.  The notice shall contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Securities pursuant to the Net Proceeds Offer and shall state the following terms:

(1) that Holders may elect to have their Securities purchased by the Company either in whole or in part (subject to proration as hereinafter described in the event the Net Proceeds Offer is oversubscribed) in denominations of $2,000 or in integral multiples of $1,000 of principal amount, at the applicable purchase price;

(2) that the Net Proceeds Offer is being made pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 4.18 and that all Securities tendered will be accepted for payment; provided, however, that if the principal amount of Securities or other Pari Passu Lien Obligations tendered in the Net Proceeds Offer exceeds the aggregate amount of the Net Proceeds Offer Amount, the Company shall select the Securities or Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations to be purchased on a pro rata basis (based on amounts tendered);

(3) the purchase price (including the amount of accrued interest, if any) and the Net Proceeds Offer Payment Date (which shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date, other than as may be required by applicable law);

(4) that any Security not tendered will continue to accrue interest;

(5) that, unless the Company defaults in making payment therefor, any Security accepted for payment pursuant to the Net Proceeds Offer shall cease to accrue interest after the Net Proceeds Offer Payment Date;

(6) that Holders electing to have a Security purchased pursuant to the Net Proceeds Offer will be required to surrender the Security, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the Security completed, to the Paying

66

Agent at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third Business Day prior to the Net Proceeds Offer Payment Date;

(7) that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if the Paying Agent receives, not later than the second Business Day prior to the Net Proceeds Offer Payment Date, a facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Security, the Holder delivered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Security purchased; and

(8) that Holders whose Securities are purchased only in part will be issued new Securities in a principal amount at maturity equal to the unpurchased portion of the Securities surrendered.

On or before the Net Proceeds Offer Payment Date, the Company shall (i) accept for payment Securities or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Net Proceeds Offer, (ii) deposit with the Paying Agent U.S. Legal Tender sufficient to pay the purchase price, plus accrued interest, if any, of all Securities to be purchased and (iii) deliver to the Trustee Securities so accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the Securities or portions thereof being purchased by the Company.  The Paying Agent shall promptly mail to the Holders of Securities so accepted payment in an amount equal to the purchase price, plus accrued interest, if any, thereon, set forth in the notice of such Net Proceeds Offer.  Any Security not so accepted shall be promptly mailed by the Company to the Holder thereof.  For purposes of this Section 4.18, the Trustee shall act as the Paying Agent.

Any amounts remaining after the purchase of Securities pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer shall be returned by the Trustee to the Company.  To the extent that the aggregate amount of the Securities tendered pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer is less than the Net Proceeds Offer Amount, the Company may use such excess Net Proceeds Offer Amount for general corporate purposes or for any other purposes not prohibited by this Indenture.  Upon completion of any such Net Proceeds Offer, the Net Proceeds Offer Amount shall be reset at zero.

(b) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly consummate an Asset Sale of ABL Collateral unless:

(i) the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Issuer) of the assets sold or otherwise disposed of;

(ii) at least 75% of the consideration therefor received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of:

(A) cash or Cash Equivalents,

(B) properties and assets to be owned by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and used in a Permitted Business; provided that the assets to be owned by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries constitute Collateral; or

67

(C) Capital Stock in one or more Persons engaged in a Permitted Business that are or thereby become Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer; provided that the properties and assets of such Person constitute Collateral;

and, in each case, such consideration is received at the time of such disposition; provided that the amount of

(1) any liabilities (as shown on the Issuer’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet) of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary (other than (x) liabilities that are unsecured or secured by Liens junior to the Lien on the Collateral securing the Securities and (y) liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Securities) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets, and

(2) any notes or other securities received by the Issuer or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash or Cash Equivalents within 90 days after such Asset Sale (to the extent of the cash received)

shall be deemed to be cash for the purposes of this provision only; and

(iii) upon the consummation of such Asset Sale, the Issuer will apply, or cause such Restricted Subsidiary to apply, the Net Cash Proceeds relating to such Asset Sale within 365 days of receipt thereof either:

(A) reduce (x) any Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement or any Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Guarantor that in each case is secured by a Lien on the ABL Collateral that is prior to the Lien on the ABL Collateral in favor of Holders of the Securities or (y) any Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor (and, in the case of revolving obligations under clauses (x) or (y), to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto), in each case other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or a Subsidiary of the Issuer;

(B) make an investment in Replacement Assets; and/or

(C) a combination of prepayment and investment permitted by the foregoing clauses (iii)(A) and (iii)(B).

On the 366th day after an Asset Sale of ABL Collateral or such earlier date, if any, as the Board of Directors of the Issuer or of such Restricted Subsidiary determines not to apply the Net Cash Proceeds relating to such Asset Sale as set forth in clauses (iii)(A), (iii)(B) and (iii)(C) of the preceding paragraph (each, an “ABL Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date”), such aggregate amount of Net Cash Proceeds which have not been applied on or before such ABL Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date (each an “ABL Net Proceeds Offer Amount”) shall be applied by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary to make an offer to purchase from all holders of the Securities, and, if required by the terms of any Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations, from the holders of such Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations (an “ABL Net Proceeds Offer”), on a date (the “ABL Net Proceeds

68

Offer Payment Date”) not less than 30 nor more than 60 days following the applicable ABL Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date, on a pro rata basis, an amount of Securities and Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations equal to the ABL Net Proceeds Offer Amount at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities and Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the date of purchase.

If at any time any non-cash consideration received by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer, as the case may be, in connection with any Asset Sale of ABL Collateral is converted into or sold or otherwise disposed of for cash (other than interest received with respect to any such non-cash consideration), then such conversion or disposition shall be deemed to constitute an Asset Sale of ABL Collateral hereunder as of the date of such conversion or disposition and the ABL Net Cash Proceeds thereof will be applied in accordance with this covenant.

The Issuer may defer the ABL Net Proceeds Offer until there is an aggregate unutilized ABL Net Proceeds Offer Amount equal to or in excess of $25.0 million resulting from one or more Asset Sales of ABL Collateral (at which time, the entire unutilized ABL Net Proceeds Offer Amount, and not just the amount in excess of $25.0 million, shall be applied as required pursuant to the second preceding paragraph).

Notice of each ABL Net Proceeds Offer will be mailed to the record holders as shown on the register of Holders within 25 days following the ABL Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date, with a copy to the Trustee, and will comply with the procedures set forth in this Indenture.  Upon receiving notice of the ABL Net Proceeds Offer, Holders may elect to tender their Securities in whole or in part in denominations of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof in exchange for cash.  To the extent holders of Securities or Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations properly tender their Securities in an amount exceeding the ABL Net Proceeds Offer Amount, Securities of tendering Holders and Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations will be purchased on a pro rata basis (based on amounts tendered).  To the extent that the aggregate amount of the Securities and Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations tendered pursuant to an ABL Net Proceeds Offer is less than the ABL Net Proceeds Offer Amount, the Issuer may use such excess ABL Net Proceeds Offer Amount for general corporate purposes or for any other purposes not prohibited by this Indenture.  Upon completion of any such ABL Net Proceeds Offer, the ABL Net Proceeds Offer Amount shall be reset at zero.  An ABL Net Proceeds Offer shall remain open for a period of 20 business days or such longer period as may be required by law.

Pending the final application of any Net Cash Proceeds pursuant to clause (b) of this covenant, the Issuer or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary may apply such Net Cash Proceeds temporarily to reduce Indebtedness outstanding under a revolving credit facility or otherwise invest such Net Cash Proceeds in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture.

For the purposes of this covenant, any sale by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary that owns assets constituting Notes Collateral or ABL Collateral shall be deemed to be a sale of such Notes Collateral or ABL Collateral (or, in the event of a Restricted Subsidiary that owns assets that include any combination of Notes Collateral and ABL Collateral a separate sale of each of such Notes Collateral and ABL Collateral).  In the event of any such sale (or a sale of assets that includes any combination of Notes Collateral and ABL Collateral), the proceeds received by the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries in

69

respect of such sale shall be allocated to the Notes Collateral and ABL Collateral in accordance with their respective fair market values, which shall be determined by the Board of Directors of the Issuer or, at the Issuer’s election, an independent third party.  In addition, for purposes of this covenant, any sale by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Capital Stock of any Person that owns only ABL Collateral will not be subject to paragraph (a) above, but rather will be subject to paragraph (b) above.

The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Securities pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer or ABL Net Proceeds Offer.  To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.18, the Company shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.18 by virtue thereof.  The provisions of this Section 4.18 and other provisions contained in this Indenture relating to the Company’s obligation to make a Net Proceeds Offer or ABL Net Proceeds Offer may be waived or modified with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities.

4.19. Impairment of Security Interest.

The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, take, or knowingly omit to take, any action, which action or omission would have the effect of causing a Lien to be created in favor of the collateral agent for any Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations or Indebtedness secured by Liens with Junior Lien Priority or the Bank Lenders (in their respective capacities as such) on any property or assets of the type that would constitute Collateral unless a Lien is created in favor of the Notes Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Noteholder Secured Parties with respect to such property or assets (which Lien in favor of the Noteholder Secured Parties shall have the priority set forth in the Security Documents).  Such Lien in favor of the Notes Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Noteholder Secured Parties shall at all times be in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture and the Security Documents.

4.20. Future Guarantors.

(a) If the Company organizes or acquires any Domestic Restricted Subsidiary after the Issue Date (each a “New Domestic Restricted Subsidiary”) having total assets with a book value in excess of $1.0 million, the Company shall:  (i) execute and deliver to the Trustee (A) a supplemental indenture in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee pursuant to which each such New Domestic Restricted Subsidiary shall unconditionally guarantee all of the Company’s obligations under the Securities and this Indenture and (B) supplemental Security Documents; (ii) deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel that each such supplemental indenture and supplemental Security Document has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such New Domestic Restricted Subsidiary and constitutes a legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligation of such New Domestic Restricted Subsidiary; and (iii) cause each New Domestic Restricted Subsidiary to promptly execute and deliver to the Trustee a Guarantee and the Security Documents or a joinder thereto.

70

(b) After the execution of a supplemental indenture pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 4.20, each such New Domestic Restricted Subsidiary party thereto shall be a Guarantor for all purposes of this Indenture.

(c) In addition to the requirements set forth in Section 4.20(a) above, the following additional requirements shall apply:

(i) the Company and the new Guarantor will cause to be filed and recorded such instruments (including financing statements) in such jurisdictions as may be required by applicable law to perfect, preserve and protect the Lien of the Security Documents on the Collateral owned by or transferred to such new Guarantor;

(ii) any Collateral owned by or transferred to the new Guarantor shall:  (a) continue to constitute Collateral under this Indenture and the Security Documents; and (b) not be subject to any Lien other than Liens permitted by this Indenture and the Security Documents; and

(iii) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such Security Documents comply with the applicable provisions of this Indenture, that all conditions precedent in this Indenture relating to such transaction have been satisfied and that such Security Documents are enforceable, subject to customary qualifications.

4.21. Further Assurances and After-Acquired Property.

(a) The Company and each Guarantor shall execute any and all further documents, financing statements, agreements and instruments, and take all further action that may be required under applicable law, or that the Notes Collateral Agent may reasonably request, in order to grant, preserve, protect and perfect the validity and priority of the security interests and Liens created or intended to be created by the Security Documents on the Collateral.  In addition, from time to time, the Company will reasonably promptly secure the obligations under this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement by pledging or creating, or causing to be pledged or created, perfected security interests and Liens with respect to the Collateral.  Such security interests and Liens will be created under the Security Documents and other security agreements, mortgages, deeds of trust and other instruments and documents in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Notes Collateral Agent, and the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Notes Collateral Agent all such instruments and documents (including certificates, legal opinions, title insurance policies and lien searches) as the Trustee shall reasonably request to evidence compliance with this covenant.  The Company agrees to provide such evidence as the Notes Collateral Agent shall reasonably request as to the perfection and priority status of each such security interest and Lien.

(b) In furtherance of the foregoing, promptly following the acquisition by the Company or any Guarantor of any After-Acquired Property, the Company or such Guarantor shall, if and to the extent required by Sections 10.1 and 10.2, execute and deliver such mortgages, deeds of trust, security instruments, financing statements and certificates and opinions of counsel as shall be reasonably necessary to vest in the Notes Collateral Agent a perfected security interest in

71

such After-Acquired Property and to have such After-Acquired Property added to the Notes Collateral or the ABL Collateral, as applicable, and thereupon all provisions of this Indenture and the Security Documents relating to the Notes Collateral or the ABL Collateral, as applicable, shall be deemed to relate to such After-Acquired Property to the same extent and with the same force and effect.

4.22. Information Regarding Collateral.

The Company will furnish to the Notes Collateral Agent, with respect to the Company or any Guarantor, prompt written notice of any change in such Person’s (i) name, (ii) jurisdiction of organization or formation, (iii) identity or corporate structure or (iv) Organizational Identification Number.  The Company and the Guarantors agree not to effect or permit any change referred to in the preceding sentence unless all filings have been made under the Uniform Commercial Code or otherwise that are required in order for the Notes Collateral Agent to continue at all times following such change to have a valid, legal and perfected security interest in all the Collateral.  The Company also agrees promptly to notify the Notes Collateral Agent if any material portion of the Collateral is damaged, destroyed or condemned.

(iv) the failure to pay at final stated maturity (giving effect to any applicable grace periods and any extensions thereof) the principal amount of any Indebtedness of the Company or the Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company, or the acceleration of the final stated maturity of any such Indebtedness by the holders thereof if the aggregate principal amount of such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness in default for failure to pay principal at final stated maturity or which has been accelerated, exceeds $25.0 million at any time;

(v) one or more judgments in an aggregate amount in excess of $25.0 million shall have been rendered against the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and such judgments remain undischarged, unpaid or unstayed for a period of 60 days after such judgment or judgments become final and non-appealable;

75

(vi) the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries (i) commences a voluntary case or proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law with respect to itself, (ii) consents to the entry of a judgment, decree or order for relief against it in an involuntary case or proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law, (iii) consents to the appointment of a custodian of it or for substantially all of its property, (iv) consents to or acquiesces in the institution of a bankruptcy or an insolvency proceeding against it, (v) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors or (vi) takes any corporate action to authorize or effect any of the foregoing;

(viii) any Guarantee of a Significant Subsidiary ceases to be in full force and effect or any Guarantee made by a Significant Subsidiary is declared to be null and void and unenforceable or any Guarantee made by a Significant Subsidiary is found to be invalid or any such Guarantor denies its liability under its Guarantee (other than by reason of release of a Guarantor in accordance with the terms of this Indenture); or

(ix) so long as the Security Documents have not otherwise been terminated in accordance with their terms or the Collateral as a whole has not otherwise been released from the Lien of the Security Documents in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof, (a) a default by the Company or any Guarantor which is a Significant Subsidiary in the performance of the Security Documents which materially and adversely affects the enforceability, validity, perfection or priority of the Lien granted to the Notes Collateral Agent on the Collateral, in each case taken as a whole, (b) a repudiation or disaffirmation by the Company or any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary of the Company’s or such Guarantor’s material obligations under the Security Documents or (c) a Lien on any Collateral with a value in excess of $25.0 million created under any Security Documents shall become unenforceable or invalid against the Company or any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary for any reason.

If, pursuant to clause (iii) above, the Holders of at least 25% of the then outstanding principal amount of Securities notify the Company as specified in such clause, such Holders shall similarly notify the Trustee.  Any notice given pursuant to clause (iii) above or the immediately preceding sentence shall be given by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested.

6.2. Acceleration.

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (vi) or (vii) of Section 6.1 above with respect to the Company) shall occur and be continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of outstanding Securities may declare the principal

76

of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on all the Securities to be due and payable by notice in writing to the Company and the Trustee specifying the respective Event of Default and that it is a “notice of acceleration” (the “Acceleration Notice”), and the same shall become immediately due and payable.  If an Event of Default specified in clause (vi) or (vii) of Section 6.1 above with respect to the Company occurs and is continuing, then all unpaid principal of, and premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on all of the outstanding Securities 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.

At any time after a declaration of acceleration with respect to the Securities as described in the preceding paragraph, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities may rescind and cancel such declaration and its consequences (i) if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree, (ii) if all existing Events of Default have been cured or waived except non-payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest that has become due solely because of the acceleration, (iii) to the extent the payment of such interest is lawful, interest on overdue installments of interest and overdue principal and premium if any, which has become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration, has been paid, (iv) if the Company has paid the Trustee its reasonable compensation and reimbursed the Trustee for its expenses, disbursements and advances, and any other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.7 and (v) in the event of the cure or waiver of an Event of Default of the type described in clause (vi) or (vii) of Section 6.1, the Trustee shall have received an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel that such Event of Default has been cured or waived.  No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

6.3. Other Remedies.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent may pursue any available remedy by proceeding at law or in equity to collect the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Securities or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Securities, this Indenture or the Security Documents.

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Securities or does not produce any of them in the proceeding.  A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Securityholder 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.  No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy.  All available remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

6.4. Waiver of Past Defaults.

Subject to Sections 2.9, 6.2, 6.7 and 9.2, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities by notice to the Trustee may waive an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences, except a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Security as specified in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 6.1.  The Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the requisite percentage of Holders have consented to such waiver and attaching copies of such consents.  When a Default or Event of Default is waived, it is cured and ceases.

77

6.5. Control by Majority.

Subject to the terms of the Security Documents, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities 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 it.  Subject to Section 7.1, however, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with any law or this Indenture, that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of another Securityholder, or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability.

6.6. Limitation on Suits.

A Securityholder may not pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Securities unless:

(i) the Holder gives to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default;

(ii) the Holder or Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

(iii) such Holder or Holders offer and, if requested, provide to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense;

(iv) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 45 days after receipt of the request and the offer and, if requested, the provision of indemnity; and

(v) during such 45-day period the Holder or Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities do not give the Trustee a direction which, in the opinion of the Trustee, is inconsistent with the request.

A Securityholder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Securityholder or to obtain a preference or priority over such other Securityholder.

6.7. Rights of Holders to Receive Payment.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on a Security, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Security, 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 the Holder.

6.8. Collection Suit by Trustee.

If an Event of Default in payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest specified in clause (i) or (ii) 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 or any other obligor on the Securities for the whole amount of principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest and fees remaining unpaid, together with interest on overdue principal and premium, if any, and, to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest on overdue installments of interest, in each case at the

78

rate per annum borne by the Securities and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.7.

6.9. 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 reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.7) and the Securityholders allowed in any judicial proceedings relating to the Issuer, their creditors or their property and shall be entitled and empowered to participate as a member, voting or otherwise, of any official committee appointed for such matter, to collect and receive any monies or other securities or property payable or deliverable upon the conversion or exchange of the Securities or upon any such claims and to distribute the same, and any Custodian in any such judicial proceedings is hereby authorized by each Securityholder 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 Securityholders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agent and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.7.  Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Securityholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Securityholder in any such proceeding.

6.10. Priorities.

Subject to the terms of the Security Documents, if the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent collects any money or property pursuant to this Article Six, it shall pay out the money or property in the following order:

First:  to the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent for amounts due under Section 7.7 and Section 10.14;

Second:  to Holders for interest accrued on the Securities, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Securities for interest;

Third:  to Holders for principal amounts and premium, if any, due and unpaid on the Securities, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Securities for principal; and

Fourth:  to the Issuer or to the Guarantors as their respective interests may appear.

The Trustee, upon prior notice to the Issuer, may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Securityholders pursuant to this Section 6.10.

79

6.11. 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, 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 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.7, or a suit by a Holder or Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities.

6.12. Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

If the Trustee or any Holder 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, then, and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Issuer, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Issuer, Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

6.13. Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or wrongfully taken Securities in Section 2.7, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders 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 assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

7.1. Duties of Trustee.

(a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own affairs.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, 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:

82

(k) Delivery of reports, information and documents to the Trustee under Section 4.10 is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of the foregoing shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Issuer’s compliance with any of the covenants hereunder.

7.3. Individual Rights of Trustee.

The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Issuer, its Subsidiaries (including any Guarantors) or their respective Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.  Any Agent may do the same with like rights.  However, the Trustee must comply with Sections 7.10 and 7.11.

7.4. Trustee’s Disclaimer.

The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture, any Guarantee or the Securities, it shall not be accountable for the Issuer’s use of the proceeds from the Securities, and it shall not be responsible for any statement of the Issuer in this Indenture or any document issued in connection with the sale of Securities or any statement in the Securities other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication.  The Trustee makes no representations with respect to the effectiveness or adequacy of this Indenture.

7.5. Notice of Default.

If a Default or an Event of Default occurs and is continuing and the Trustee receives actual notice of such Default or Event of Default, the Trustee shall mail to each Securityholder notice of the uncured Default or Event of Default within 60 days after such Default or Event of Default occurs.  Except in the case of a Default or an Event of Default in payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any Security, including an accelerated payment and the failure to make payment on the Change of Control Payment Date pursuant to a Change of Control Offer, the Net Proceeds Offer Payment Date pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer or the ABL Net Proceeds Offer Payment Date pursuant to an ABL Net Proceeds Offer, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as the Board of Directors, the executive committee, or a trust committee of directors and/or Responsible Officers, of the Trustee in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interest of the Securityholders.

7.6. Reports by Trustee to Holders.

Within 60 days after each May 15, beginning with the first May 15 following the date of this Indenture, the Trustee shall, to the extent that any of the events described in TIA § 313(a) occurred within the previous twelve months, but not otherwise, mail to each Securityholder a brief report dated as of such date that complies with TIA § 313(a).  The Trustee also shall comply with TIA §§ 313(b), 313(c) and 313(d).

83

A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Securityholders shall be mailed to the Issuer and filed with the Commission and each securities exchange, if any, on which the Securities are listed.

The Issuer shall notify the Trustee if the Securities become listed on any securities exchange or of any delisting thereof and the Trustee shall comply with TIA § 313(d).

7.7. Compensation and Indemnity.

The Issuer and the Guarantors shall pay to the Trustee, from time to time, reasonable compensation for its services hereunder.  The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust.  The Issuer and the Guarantors shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable disbursements, expenses and advances (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services, except any such disbursements, expenses and advances as may be attributable to the Trustee’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.  Such expenses shall include the reasonable fees and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel.

The Issuer and the Guarantors shall indemnify the Trustee and its agents, employees, officers, stockholders and directors for, and hold them harmless against, any loss, liability or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by them except for such actions to the extent caused by any negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on their part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust including the cost and expense of enforcing this Indenture and the Securities against the Issuer and the Guarantors (including this Section 7.7) including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending themselves against or investigating any claim (whether asserted by the Issuer, the Guarantors, any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of the Trustee’s rights, powers or duties hereunder.  The Trustee shall notify the Issuer and the Guarantors promptly of any claim asserted against the Trustee or any of its agents, employees, officers, stockholders and directors for which it may seek indemnity, provided that any failure to so notify the Issuer and the Guarantors shall not relieve the Issuer and the Guarantors of their indemnity obligations hereunder.  The Issuer and the Guarantors may, subject to the approval of the Trustee, defend the claim and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense.  The Trustee and its agents, employees, officers, stockholders and directors subject to the claim may have separate counsel and the Issuer and the Guarantors shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel; provided, however, that the Issuer and the Guarantors will not be required to pay such fees and expenses if, subject to the approval of the Trustee, it assumes the Trustee’s defense and there is no conflict of interest between the Issuer and the Guarantors and the Trustee and its agents, employees, officers, stockholders and directors subject to the claim in connection with such defense as reasonably determined by the Trustee.  The Issuer and the Guarantors need not pay for any settlement made without their written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.  The Issuer and the Guarantors need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss or liability to the extent incurred by the Trustee through its negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

To secure the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ payment obligations in this Section 7.7, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Securities against all money or property held or collected

84

by the Trustee, in its capacity as Trustee (provided that any assets or money received in contravention of the Security Documents shall be applied as set forth in the Security Documents), except assets or money held in trust to pay principal of, premium, if any, or interest on particular Securities.

When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in clause (vi) or (vii) of Section 6.1 occurs, such expenses and the compensation for such services shall be paid to the extent allowed under any Bankruptcy Law.

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.7 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or the appointment of a successor Trustee.

7.8. Replacement of Trustee.

The Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Issuer in writing.  The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Issuer and the Trustee and may appoint a successor Trustee.  The Issuer may remove the Trustee if:

(i) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10;

(ii) the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;

(iii) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or

(iv) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting.

If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Issuer shall notify each Holder of such event and shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee.  Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities may appoint a successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Issuer.

A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuer.  Immediately after that, the retiring Trustee shall transfer, after payment of all sums then owing to the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.7, all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the Lien provided in Section 7.7, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture.  A successor Trustee shall mail notice of its succession to each Securityholder.

If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Issuer or the Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

85

If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10, any Securityholder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.8, the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ obligations under Section 7.7 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

7.9. 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, 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; provided that such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article Seven.

7.10. Eligibility; Disqualification.

This Indenture shall always have a Trustee who satisfies the requirement of TIA §§ 310(a)(1), 310(a)(2) and 310(a)(5).  The Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition.  In addition, if the Trustee is a corporation included in a bank holding company system, the Trustee, independently of the bank holding company, shall meet the capital requirements of TIA § 310(a)(2).  The Trustee shall comply with TIA § 310(b); provided, however, that there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA § 310(b)(1) any indenture or indentures under which other securities, or certificates of interest or participation in other securities, of the Issuer are outstanding, if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA § 310(b)(1) are met.  The provisions of TIA § 310 shall apply to the Issuer and any other obligor of the Securities.

7.11. Preferential Collection of Claims Against the Issuer.

The Trustee, in its capacity as Trustee hereunder, shall comply with TIA § 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA § 311(b).  A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA § 311(a) to the extent indicated.

After such delivery or irrevocable deposit, the Trustee upon request shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of the Issuer’s obligations under the Securities and this Indenture except for those surviving obligations specified above.

87

8.2. Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance.

(a) The Issuer may, at its option by Board Resolutions of the Boards of Directors of the Issuer, at any time, elect to have either paragraph (b) or (c) below applied to all outstanding Securities upon compliance with the conditions set forth in Section 8.3.

(b) Upon the Issuer’s exercise under paragraph (a) hereof of the option applicable to this paragraph (b), the Issuer and any Guarantor shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.3, be deemed to have been discharged from their respective obligations with respect to all outstanding Securities and the corresponding Guarantees on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”).  For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Securities, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.4 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (i) and (ii) below, and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Securities and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions, which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:  (i) the rights of Holders of outstanding Securities to receive solely from the trust fund described in Section 8.4, and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Securities when such payments are due, (ii) the Company’s obligations with respect to such Securities under Article Two and Section 4.2, (iii) the rights, powers, trust, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the Company’s obligations in connection therewith and (iv) this Article Eight.  Subject to compliance with this Article Eight, the Issuer may exercise its option under this paragraph (b) notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under paragraph (c) hereof.

(c) Upon the Issuer’s exercise under paragraph (a) hereof of the option applicable to this paragraph (c), the Issuer and each Guarantor shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.3, be released from their obligations, if any, under the covenants contained in Sections 4.3 and 4.4 and Sections 4.12 through 4.22, 10.1, 10.2, 10.4, 10.5 and Article Five with respect to the outstanding Securities and the corresponding Guarantees on and after the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Securities 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 (it being understood that such Securities shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes).  For this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Securities, the Company 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 such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.1(iii), but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities shall be unaffected thereby.  In addition, upon the Issuer’s exercise under paragraph (a) hereof of the option applicable to this

88

paragraph (c), subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.3 hereof, Sections 6.1(iii), 6.1(iv), 6.1(v), 6.1(viii) and 6.1(ix) and shall not constitute Events of Default.

(iii) in the case of an election under Section 8.2(c), the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders of the Securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

The Issuer shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the U.S. Legal Tender or U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 8.3 hereof or the principal, premium, if any, and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Securities.

Anything in this Article Eight to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Issuer from time to time upon the Issuer’s request any U.S. Legal Tender or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 8.3 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof

delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

8.5. Repayment to the Issuer.

The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Issuer upon request any money held by them for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest that remains unclaimed for two years; provided that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any payment, may at the expense of the Issuer cause to be published once in a newspaper of general circulation in The City of New York or mail to each Holder entitled to such money notice that such money remains unclaimed and that after a date specified therein which shall be at least 30 days from the date of such publication or mailing any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Issuer.  After payment to the Issuer, Holders entitled to such money must look to the Issuer for payment as general creditors unless an applicable law designates another Person.

8.6. Reinstatement.

(iii) reduce the principal of or change or have the effect of changing the fixed maturity of any Security, or change the date on which any Securities may be subject to redemption or reduce the Redemption Price therefor;

(iv) make any Securities payable in money other than that stated in the Securities;

(v) make any change in provisions of this Indenture protecting the right of each Holder to receive payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Security 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 the Securities to waive Defaults or Events of Default;

(vi) modify or change any provision of this Indenture or the related definitions affecting the ranking of the Securities or any Guarantee, in a manner which adversely affects the Holders;

(vii) amend, change or modify in any material respect the obligation of the Issuer to make and consummate a Change of Control Offer in the event of a Change of Control which has occurred or modify any of the provisions or definitions with respect thereto after a Change of Control has occurred;

93

(viii) make any changes in Sections 6.4, 6.7 or this Section 9.2; or

(ix) release any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary from any of its obligations under its Guarantee or this Indenture other than in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement 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 affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver.  Any failure of the Issuer to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture.

9.3. Compliance with TIA.

From the date on which this Indenture is qualified under the TIA, every amendment, waiver or supplement of this Indenture or the Securities or any Guarantee shall comply with the TIA as then in effect.

9.4. Revocation and Effect of Consents.

Until an amendment, waiver or supplement becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder is a continuing consent by the Holder and every subsequent Holder of a Security or portion of a Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Security.  However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to his Security or portion of his Security by notice to the Trustee or the Issuer received before the date on which the Trustee receives an Officers’ Certificate certifying that the Holders of the requisite principal amount of Securities have consented (and not theretofore revoked such consent) to the amendment, supplement or waiver.

The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any amendment, supplement or waiver.  If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the last sentence of the immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to revoke any consent previously given, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date.  No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 90 days after such record date.

After an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Securityholder, unless it makes a change described in any of clauses (i) through (vii) of Section 9.2, in which case, the amendment, supplement or waiver shall bind only each Holder of a Security who has consented to it and every subsequent Holder of a Security or portion of a Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security; provided that any such waiver shall not impair or affect the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on a Security, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Security, or to

94

bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates without the consent of such Holder.

9.5. Notation on or Exchange of Securities.

If an amendment, supplement or waiver changes the terms of a Security, the Issuer may require the Holder of the Security to deliver it to the Trustee.  The Issuer shall provide the Trustee with an appropriate notation on the Security about the changed terms and cause the Trustee to return it to the Holder at the Issuer’s expense.  Alternatively, if the Issuer or the Trustee so determines, the Issuer in exchange for the Security shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Security that reflects the changed terms.  Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Security shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

9.6. Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc.

The Trustee shall execute any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article Nine; provided that the Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, execute any such amendment, supplement or waiver which affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture.  The Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel and an Officers’ Certificate each complying with Sections 12.4 and 12.5 and stating that the execution of any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article Nine is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Issuer enforceable in accordance with its terms.  Such Opinion of Counsel shall be at the expense of the Issuer.

ARTICLE TEN

10.1. Security Documents; Additional Collateral.

(a)           In order to secure the due and punctual payment of the Securities and all other Obligations in respect of the Securities and this Indenture and the Security Documents, and the other amounts payable to the Trustee hereunder, the Company and the Guarantors shall, on the Issue Date or thereafter in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.1 and Section 10.2 hereof, enter into the applicable Security Documents to create the Lien on the Collateral in favor of the Notes Collateral Agent (subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement) for the benefit of the Noteholder Secured Parties and to provide for certain related intercreditor matters.  The Trustee and the Company hereby acknowledge and agree that the Notes Collateral Agent holds the Collateral in trust for the benefit of the Noteholder Secured Parties, in each case pursuant to the terms of the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement.  Each Holder, by accepting a Security (including any Indebtedness issued after the Issue Date pursuant to clause (iii) of the fourth paragraph of Section 2.2), consents and agrees to the terms of the Security Documents (including the provisions providing for the possession, use, release and foreclosure of Collateral) and the Intercreditor Agreement as the same may be in effect or may be amended from time to time in accordance with their terms and this Indenture and the Intercreditor Agreement, and authorizes and directs the Notes Collateral Agent to enter into the Security Documents and the

95

Intercreditor Agreement and to perform its obligations and exercise its rights thereunder in accordance therewith; provided, however, that if any of the provisions of the Security Documents limit, qualify or conflict with the duties imposed by the provisions of the TIA, the TIA shall control.  Any Guarantor shall, upon becoming a Guarantor, become a party to each applicable Security Document as shall be necessary or appropriate to grant and create a valid Lien on and security interest in the personal property of such Guarantor of the type described in the definition of “Collateral” in the Security Agreement and, to the extent required by Section 10.1(b), all real property owned by such Guarantor, in each case, subject to no Liens other than Liens permitted by this Indenture and the Security Documents.  In furtherance and in compliance with the provisions of Section 4.19 herein, after the Issue Date, to further secure the Obligations in respect of the Securities and this Indenture, the Company and the Guarantors shall enter into the applicable Security Documents to create a Lien in favor of Notes Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Noteholder Secured Parties on any and all Collateral (subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement) on which a Lien is granted to the Notes Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Noteholder Secured Parties.

(b) If the Company or any Guarantor acquires after the Issue Date (i) in fee simple any real property with book value or cost (whichever is greater) in excess of $2.5 million or (ii) any leasehold interests in any real property with annual rent in excess of $2.5 million, in either case as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors as evidenced by a Board Resolution, the Company or such Guarantor shall grant to the Notes Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Noteholder Secured Parties a Mortgage on such real property; provided that in the case of leaseholds only (but not with respect to owned real property) the Company and the Guarantors shall only be required to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain leasehold mortgages or other security interests with respect thereto and shall in no event be required to obtain such leasehold mortgages or other security interests if prohibited by applicable law, regulation or contract.  All such Mortgages shall be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Notes Collateral Agent.  In connection therewith, the Company shall deliver to the Notes Collateral Agent a Mortgage, title insurance policy, survey, legal opinion, Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC”) fixture filings and other documents and instruments meeting the requirements of Schedule III of the Purchase Agreement (as if such newly acquired real property were set forth on such Schedule), each in form and substance satisfactory to Notes Collateral Agent, and pay all costs and expenses in connection therewith.

(c) The Trustee (solely in its capacity as a trustee on behalf of the Holders pursuant to the Security Documents) and each Holder, by accepting a Security, agrees to all of the terms and provisions of each of the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, as the same may be amended from time to time pursuant to the provisions of Security Documents, the Intercreditor Agreement and this Indenture, and acknowledges that the Security Documents also may be amended to the extent permitted by law without the consent of the Trustee or the Holders to add additional Persons as Noteholder Secured Parties under the Security Documents and/or add new classes of creditors, in each case, to the extent such Indebtedness and Liens are permitted hereby.

(d) The Company and the Guarantors shall comply with the requirements of Section 5(i) of the Purchase Agreement.

96

10.2. Recording, Etc.

(a) The Company and the Guarantors shall take or cause to be taken all action required or desirable to be taken by the Company or such Guarantor to maintain and perfect the Lien on the Collateral granted by the Security Documents, to the extent required thereby, including, but not limited to, causing all financing statements, any mortgage or deed of trust, the Security Documents (or a short form version thereof), other instruments of further assurance, including, without limitation, continuation statements covering security interests in personal property to be executed and delivered to the Notes Collateral Agent to be promptly recorded, registered and filed, and at all times to be kept recorded and will execute and cause to be filed such financing statements and cause to be issued and filed such continuation statements, all in such manner and in such places as may be required by law fully to maintain the perfection of the Holders’ and the Trustee’s rights under this Indenture and the Security Documents to all property comprising the Collateral.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will cause each new Guarantor that becomes a Guarantor after the Issue Date pursuant to Sections 4.15 and 4.20 hereof to execute and deliver to the Notes Collateral Agent and the Trustee at such time as such Guarantor becomes a Guarantor and owns, possesses or acquires any property or assets of the type or nature that would constitute Collateral (i) a counterpart to the Security Agreement and such other documents as required by the Security Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement and (ii) any other Security Documents as shall be necessary or reasonably requested by the Notes Collateral Agent in order to grant and perfect the Lien on the Collateral of such Guarantor.

97

such counsel, no additional action is necessary to maintain perfection of such security interests.

10.3. Release of Collateral/Intercreditor and Subordination Agreements.

(a) Subject to the terms of Article Four, Collateral may be released from the Lien and security interest created by the Security Documents at any time or from time to time in accordance with the provisions of the Security Documents, the Intercreditor Agreement or as provided in this Indenture.  The Company and the Guarantors will be entitled to a release of property and other assets included in the Collateral from the Liens securing the Securities and the Guarantees, and the Trustee (subject to its receipt of an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel as provided below) shall release, or instruct the Notes Collateral Agent to release, as applicable, the same from such Liens at the Company’s sole cost and expense, under one or more of the following circumstances:

(1) to enable the Company or any Guarantor to sell, exchange or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral (other than any such sale or other disposition to the Company or another Guarantor) to the extent not prohibited under Article Four;

(2) in the case of a Guarantor that is released from its Guarantee with respect to the Securities, the release of the property and assets of such Guarantor;

(3) pursuant to an amendment or waiver in accordance with Article Nine;

(4) if the Securities have been discharged or defeased pursuant to Article Eight; or

(5) with respect to any ABL Collateral, if the ABL Collateral Agent releases such ABL Collateral from the Lien securing the ABL Obligations in accordance with the ABL Loan Documents.

(b) Upon receipt of an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel certifying that all conditions precedent under this Indenture and the Security Documents (and TIA § 314(d)), if any, to such release have been met and any necessary or proper instruments of termination, satisfaction or release prepared by the Company, the Trustee shall, or shall cause the Notes Collateral Agent to, execute, deliver or acknowledge (at the Company’s expense) such instruments or releases to evidence the release of any Collateral permitted to be released pursuant to this Indenture or the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement.  Neither the Trustee nor the Notes Collateral Agent shall be liable for any such release undertaken in good faith in reliance upon any such Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel, and notwithstanding any term hereof or in any Security Document to the contrary, the Trustee and Notes Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to release any such Lien and security interest, or execute and deliver any such instrument of release, satisfaction or termination, unless and until it receives such Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel.

98

10.4. Taking and Destruction.

Upon any Taking or Destruction of any Collateral, all Net Insurance Proceeds received by the Company or any Guarantor shall be deemed Net Cash Proceeds and shall be applied in accordance with Section 4.18 as if such Net Insurance Proceeds were Net Cash Proceds received by the Company or such Guarantor in connection with an Asset Sale.

10.5. Trust Indenture Act Requirements.

The release of any Collateral from the Lien of any of the Security Documents or the release of, in whole or in part, the Liens created by any of the Security Documents will not be deemed to impair the security interests in contravention of the provisions hereof if and to the extent the Collateral or Liens are released pursuant to the applicable Security Documents and pursuant to the terms hereof.  The Trustee and each of the Holders acknowledge that a release of Collateral or Liens strictly in accordance with the terms of the Security Documents and the terms hereof will not be deemed for any purpose to be an impairment of the security interests in contravention of the terms of this Indenture.  To the extent applicable following the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA, without limitation, the Company and the Guarantors will comply with TIA § 314(d) relating to the release of property or securities from the Liens hereof and of the Security Documents and TIA § 314(b) relating to reports.  At the request of the Trustee, the Company shall provide a certificate or opinion required by TIA § 314(d), which certificate or opinion may be made by an Officer of the Company, except in cases in which TIA § 314(d) requires that such certificate or opinion be made by an independent Person.

10.6. Suits To Protect the Collateral.

Subject to the provisions of Article Nine, the Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents, the Trustee in its sole discretion and without the consent of the Holders, on behalf of the Holders, may or may direct the Notes Collateral Agent to take all actions it deems necessary or appropriate in order to:

(1) enforce any of the terms of the Security Documents; and

(2) collect and receive any and all amounts payable in respect of the Obligations hereunder.

Subject to the provisions of the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, the Trustee shall have power to instruct the Notes Collateral Agent to institute and to maintain such suits and proceedings as it may deem expedient to prevent any impairment of the Collateral by any acts which may be unlawful or in violation of any of the Security Documents or this Indenture (including power to instruct the Notes Collateral Agent to institute and maintain suits or proceedings to restrain the enforcement of or compliance with any legislative or other governmental enactment, rule or order that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid if the enforcement of, or compliance with, such enactment, rule or order would impair the Security Interests).  Nothing in this Section 10.6 shall be considered to impose any such duty or obligation to act on the part of the Trustee.

99

10.7. Purchaser Protected.

In no event shall any purchaser in good faith of any property purported to be released hereunder or under any of the Security Documents be bound to ascertain the authority of the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent, as the case may be, to execute the release or to inquire as to the satisfaction of any conditions required by the provisions hereof for the exercise of such authority or to see to the application of any consideration given by such purchaser or other transferee; nor shall any purchaser or other transferee of any property or rights permitted by this Article Ten to be sold be under obligation to ascertain or inquire into the authority of the Company, to make any such sale or other transfer.

10.8. Powers Exercisable by Receiver or Trustee.

In case the Collateral shall be in the possession of a receiver or trustee, lawfully appointed, the powers conferred in this Article Ten upon the Company with respect to the release, sale or other disposition of such property may be exercised by such receiver or trustee, and an instrument signed by such receiver or trustee shall be deemed the equivalent of any similar instrument of the Company or of any officer or officers thereof required by the provisions of this Article Ten.

10.9. Determinations Relating to Collateral.

In the event (i) the Trustee shall receive any written request from the Company or any Guarantor under any Security Document for consent or approval with respect to any matter or thing relating to any Collateral or the Company’s or any Guarantor’s obligations with respect thereto (other than actions with respect to the Collateral on the part of the Trustee that do not, pursuant to the express terms of this Indenture, require the consent of the Holders); or (ii) there shall be required from the Trustee under the provisions of any Security Document any performance or the delivery of any instrument (other than the performance or delivery of any instrument with respect to the Collateral that does not require the consent of the Holders pursuant to the express terms of this Indenture); or (iii) a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall receive notice or have actual knowledge of any default by the Company or any Guarantor of any covenant or any breach of any representation or warranty of the Company or any Guarantor set forth in any Security Document, and, in the case of clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above, the Trustee’s response or action is not otherwise specifically addressed hereunder or under the applicable Security Document then, in each such event, the Trustee shall, within seven Business Days thereafter, advise the Holders, in writing and at the Company’s expense, of the matter or thing as to which consent has been requested or the performance or instrument required to be delivered or the default of which the Trustee has received notice or has actual knowledge.  Subject to Article Nine and the Security Documents, the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount at maturity of the outstanding Securities shall have the exclusive authority to direct the Trustee’s response to any of the circumstances contemplated in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above.  In the event the Trustee shall be required to respond to any of the circumstances contemplated in this Section 10.9, the Trustee shall not be required so to respond unless it shall have received written direction by Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount at maturity of the outstanding Securities and indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it; provided that the Trustee shall be entitled to hire experts, consultants, agents and attorneys to advise the Trustee on the manner in which

100

the Trustee should respond to such request or render any requested performance or response to such default (the expenses of which shall be reimbursed to the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.7).  The Trustee shall be fully protected in the taking of any action recommended or approved by any such expert, consultant, agent or attorney or agreed to by such Holders.

10.10. Release upon Termination of the Company’s Obligations.

In the event that the Company delivers an Officers’ Certificate certifying that its obligations under this Indenture have been satisfied and discharged by complying with the provisions of Article Eight and such other documents and/or funds as are required to be delivered or paid pursuant to Article Eight, the Trustee shall at the request of the Company instruct the Notes Collateral Agent to execute and deliver, in each case without recourse, representation or warranty, such releases, termination statements and other instruments (in recordable form, where appropriate) as the Company may reasonably request evidencing the termination of the Liens created by the Security Documents in favor of the Notes Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders and thereafter neither the Trustee nor the Notes Collateral Agent shall be deemed to hold the Liens for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders.

10.11. Limitation on Duty of Trustee in Respect of Collateral.

(a) Beyond the exercise of reasonable care by the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent, neither the Trustee nor the Notes Collateral Agent shall have any duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income thereon or as to preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto and neither the Trustee nor the Notes Collateral Agent shall be responsible for filing any financing or continuation statements or recording any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise perfecting or maintaining the perfection of the security interest in the Collateral.

(b) Neither the Trustee nor the Notes Collateral Agent shall be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens upon any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder, except to the extent such action or omission constitutes negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent, as applicable, for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of the Company to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral.

10.12. Successor Collateral Agent.

If the Notes Collateral Agent resigns or is otherwise removed or replaced, the Company may appoint a successor collateral agent (a “Successor Collateral Agent”) on behalf of the Trustee and Holders of Securities.  The Successor Collateral Agent shall be a bank, trust company or other financial institution having capital and retained earnings of at least $1,000,000,000.  Upon acceptance of any appointment as the Successor Collateral Agent, such Successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges,

101

duties and obligations of the retiring Notes Collateral Agent hereunder and under the Security Documents and the retiring Notes Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder.  In this connection, the Trustee shall, if requested by the Successor Collateral Agent and without the necessity of obtaining the consent of the Holders of Securities, so acknowledge such fact in writing in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Successor Collateral Agent.

10.13. Notes Collateral Agent.

(a) The Trustee and each of the Holders by acceptance of the Securities hereby designates and appoints the Notes Collateral Agent as its agent under this Indenture, the Security Agreement, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement and the Trustee and each of the Holders by acceptance of the Securities hereby irrevocably authorizes the Notes Collateral Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Indenture, the Security Agreement, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Notes Collateral Agent by the terms of this Indenture, the Security Agreement, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  The Notes Collateral Agent agrees to act as such on the express conditions contained in this Section 10.13.  The provisions of this Section 10.13 are solely for the benefit of the Notes Collateral Agent and none of the Trustee, any of the Holders nor the Company or any of the Guarantors shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions contained herein other than as expressly provided in Section 10.13.  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Indenture, the Security Agreement, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, the Notes Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall the Notes Collateral Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with the Trustee, any Holder or the Company or any Guarantor, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Indenture, the Security Agreement, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement or otherwise exist against the Notes Collateral Agent.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Indenture with reference to the Notes Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law.  Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.  Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Indenture, the Notes Collateral Agent shall have and may use its sole discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising any discretionary rights or taking or refraining from taking any actions which the Notes Collateral Agent is expressly entitled to take or assert under this Indenture, the Security Agreement, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, including the exercise of remedies pursuant to Article Six, and any action so taken or not taken shall be deemed consented to by the Trustee and the Holders.

(b) The Notes Collateral Agent may execute any of its duties under this Indenture, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties.  The Notes Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of

102

any agent, employee or attorney-in-fact that it selects as long as such selection was made without negligence or willful misconduct.

(c) None of the Notes Collateral Agent or any of its agents or employees shall (i) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Indenture or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own negligence or willful misconduct) or under or in connection with the Security Agreement, any Security Document or the Intercreditor Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby (except for its own negligence or willful misconduct), or (ii) be responsible in any manner to the Trustee or any Holder for any recital, statement, representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the Company or any Guarantor contained in this Indenture or any other indenture, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Notes Collateral Agent under or in connection with, this Indenture or any other indenture, the Security Agreement, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Indenture or any other indenture, the Security Agreement, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement, or for any failure of the Company or any Guarantor or any other party to this Indenture, the Security Agreement, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder.  None of the Notes Collateral Agent or any of its agents or employees shall be under any obligation to the Trustee or any Holder to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Indenture or any other indenture, the Security Agreement, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Company or any Guarantor.

(d) The Notes Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Company or any Guarantor), independent accountants and other experts and advisors selected by the Notes Collateral Agent.  The Notes Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this or any other Indenture, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Trustee as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Holders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.  The Notes Collateral Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Indenture or any other indenture, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement in accordance with a request or consent of the Trustee and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Holders.

(e) The Notes Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, unless the Notes Collateral Agent shall have received written notice from the Trustee or the Company referring to this Indenture, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.”  The Notes Collateral Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be

103

requested by the Trustee in accordance with Article Six (subject to Section 7.1); provided, however, that unless and until the Notes Collateral Agent has received any such request, the Notes Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable.

(f) U.S. Bank National Association and its Affiliates (and any successor Notes Collateral Agent and its Affiliates) may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting, or other business with the Company and the Guarantors as though it was not the Notes Collateral Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Trustee.  The Trustee and the Holders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, U.S. Bank National Association or its Affiliates (and any successor Notes Collateral Agent and its Affiliates) may receive information regarding the Company and the Guarantors (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Company and the Guarantors) and acknowledge that the Notes Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to provide such information to the Trustee or the Holders.  Nothing herein shall impose or imply any obligation on the part of U.S. Bank National Association (or any successor Notes Collateral Agent) to advance funds.

(g) The Notes Collateral Agent may resign at any time upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Trustee and the Company, such resignation to be effective upon the acceptance of a successor agent to its appointment as Notes Collateral Agent.  If the Notes Collateral Agent resigns under this Indenture, the Trustee, subject to the consent of the Company (which shall not be unreasonably withheld and which shall not be required during a continuing Event of Default), shall appoint a successor Notes Collateral Agent.  If no successor notes collateral agent is appointed prior to the intended effective date of the resignation of the Notes Collateral Agent (as stated in the notice of resignation), the Notes Collateral Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Trustee, subject to the consent of the Company (which shall not be unreasonably withheld and which shall not be required during a continuing Event of Default), a successor notes collateral agent.  If no successor notes collateral agent is appointed and consented to by the Company pursuant to the preceding sentence within thirty (30) days after the intended effective date of resignation (as stated in the notice of resignation) the Notes Collateral Agent shall be entitled to petition at the expense of the Company a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor.  Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor notes collateral agent hereunder, such successor notes collateral agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Notes Collateral Agent, and the term “Notes Collateral Agent” shall mean such successor notes collateral agent, and the retiring Notes Collateral Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as the Notes Collateral Agent shall be terminated.  After the retiring Notes Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Section 10.13 (and Section 10.15) shall continue to inure to its benefit and the retiring Notes Collateral Agent shall not by reason of such resignation be deemed to be released from liability as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Notes Collateral Agent under this Indenture.

(h) The Trustee shall initially act as Notes Collateral Agent and shall be authorized to appoint co-Notes Collateral Agents as necessary in its sole discretion.  Except as otherwise explicitly provided herein or in the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement, neither the

104

Notes Collateral Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof.  The Notes Collateral Agent shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither the Notes Collateral Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for its own willful misconduct, gross negligence or bad faith.

(i) The Trustee, as such and as Notes Collateral Agent, is authorized and directed to (i) enter into the Security Agreement, and the Security Documents, (ii) enter into the Intercreditor Agreement, (iii) bind the Holders on the terms as set forth in the Security Agreement, and the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement and (iv) perform and observe its obligations under the Security Agreement, and the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement.

(j) The Trustee agrees that it shall not (and shall not be obliged to), and shall not instruct the Notes Collateral Agent to, unless specifically requested to do so by a majority of the Holders, take or cause to be taken any action to enforce its rights under this Indenture or against the Company and the Guarantors, including the commencement of any legal or equitable proceedings, to foreclose any Lien on, or otherwise enforce any security interest in, any of the Collateral.

(k) The Notes Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the Trustee or any of the Holders to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by the Company and the Guarantors or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered, or that the Notes Collateral Agent’s Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected, maintained or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to determine whether all of the Grantor’s property constituting Collateral intended to be subject to the Lien and security interest of the Security Documents has been properly and completely listed or delivered, as the case may be, or the genuineness, validity, marketability or sufficiency thereof or title thereto, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Notes Collateral Agent pursuant to this Indenture, any Security Document or the Intercreditor Agreement, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, the Notes Collateral Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion given the Notes Collateral Agent’s own interest in the Collateral, and that the Notes Collateral Agent shall have no other duty or liability whatsoever to the Trustee or any Holder as to any of the foregoing.

(l) If the Company (i) incurs any ABL Obligations at any time when no intercreditor agreement is in effect or at any time when Indebtedness constituting ABL Obligations entitled to the benefit of an existing intercreditor agreement is concurrently retired, and (ii) delivers to the Notes Collateral Agent an Officers’ Certificate so stating and requesting the Notes Collateral Agent to enter into an intercreditor agreement (on substantially the same terms as the Intercreditor Agreement) in favor of a designated agent or representative for the holders of the ABL Obligations so incurred so long as such ABL Obligations (and any security interests granted in

105

connection therewith) are permitted to be incurred and granted under this Indenture, the Notes Collateral Agent shall (and is hereby authorized and directed to) enter into such intercreditor agreement (at the sole expense and cost of the Company, including legal fees and expenses of the Notes Collateral Agent), bind the Holders on the terms set forth therein and perform and observe its obligations thereunder.

(m) No provision of this Indenture, the Security Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement or any Security Document shall require the Notes Collateral Agent (or the Trustee) to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or thereunder or to take or omit to take any action hereunder or thereunder or take any action at the request or direction of Holders (or the Trustee in the case of the Notes Collateral Agent) if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds is not assured to it.

(n) The Notes Collateral Agent (i) 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, or for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it is proved that the Notes Collateral Agent was grossly negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts, (ii) shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Notes Collateral Agent may agree in writing with the Company (and money held in trust by the Notes Collateral Agent need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law), and (iii) 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 in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.  The grant of permissive rights or powers to the Notes Collateral Agent shall not be construed to impose duties to act.

10.14. Compensation and Indemnification.

The Notes Collateral Agent shall be entitled to the security, compensation and indemnification set forth in Section 7.7 (with the references to the Trustee therein being deemed to refer to the Notes Collateral Agent).

10.15. Intercreditor Agreement, Security Agreement, and Other Security Documents.

The Trustee and Notes Collateral Agent is each hereby directed and authorized to execute and deliver the Intercreditor Agreement, the Security Agreement, and any other Security Documents in which it is named as a party.  It is hereby expressly acknowledged and agreed that, in doing so, the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent are not responsible for the terms or contents of such agreements or documents, or for the validity or enforceability thereof, or the sufficiency thereof for any purpose.  Whether or not so expressly stated therein, in entering into, or taking (or forbearing from) any action under or pursuant to, the Intercreditor Agreement, the Security Agreement, or any other Security Documents, the Trustee and Notes Collateral Agent each shall have all of the rights, immunities, indemnities and other protections granted to it under this Indenture (in addition to those that may be granted to it under the terms of such other agreements or documents).

ARTICLE TWELVE

GUARANTEE OF SECURITIES

12.1. Unconditional Guarantee.

Subject to the provisions of this Article Twelve, each of the Guarantors, upon the execution and delivery of this Indenture or a Guarantee pursuant to Section 4.15 or 4.20, shall hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee, on a senior secured basis (such guarantees to be referred to herein as the “Guarantees”) to each Holder of a Security 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 Securities or the obligations of the Issuer or any other Guarantors to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder, that:  (a) the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities shall be duly and punctually paid in full when due, whether at maturity, upon redemption at the option of Holders pursuant to the provisions of the Securities relating thereto, by acceleration or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal and (to the extent permitted by law) interest, if any, on the Securities and all other obligations of the Issuer or the Guarantors to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder (including amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.7 hereof) and all other obligations shall be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (b) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Securities or any of such other obligations, the same shall be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise.  Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed, or failing performance of any other obligation of the Issuer to the Holders under this Indenture or under the Securities, for whatever reason, each Guarantor shall be obligated to pay, or to perform or cause the performance of, the same immediately.  An Event of Default under this Indenture or the Securities shall constitute an event of default under the Guarantees, and shall entitle the Holders of Securities to accelerate the

108

obligations of the Guarantors hereunder in the same manner and to the same extent as the obligations of the Issuer.

Each of the Guarantors, upon the execution and delivery of this Indenture or a Guarantee pursuant to Section 4.15 or 4.20, shall hereby agree that its obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Securities or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Securities with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, any release of any other Guarantor, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same, whether or not a Guarantee is affixed to any particular Security, or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a Guarantor.  Each of the Guarantors, upon the execution and delivery of this Indenture or a Guarantee pursuant to Section 4.15 or 4.20, shall hereby waive the benefit of diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that its Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Securities, this Indenture and the Guarantees.  Each Guarantee is a guarantee of payment and not of collection.  If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer or to any Guarantor, or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to such Issuer or such Guarantor, any amount paid by such Issuer or such Guarantor to the Trustee or such Holder, each Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.  Each Guarantor, upon the execution and delivery of this Indenture or a Guarantee pursuant to Section 4.15 or 4.20, shall hereby further agree that, as between it, on the one hand, and the Holders of Securities and the Trustee, on the other hand, (a) subject to this Article Twelve, the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article Six hereof for the purposes of the Guarantees, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (b) in the event of any acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article Six hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of the Guarantees.

No Affiliate, stockholder, officer, director, limited liability company member or employee, past, present or future, of any Guarantor, as such, shall have any personal liability under such Guarantor’s Guarantee by reason of his, her or its status as such Affiliate, stockholder, officer, director, limited liability company member or employee.

12.2. Limitations on Guarantees.

The obligations of any Guarantor under its Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum amount which, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under its Guarantee or pursuant to its contribution obligations under this Indenture, will result in the obligations of such Guarantor under the Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under federal or state law.  Each Guarantor that makes a payment or distribution under a Guarantee

109

shall be entitled to a contribution from each other Guarantor in an amount pro rata, based on the net assets of each Guarantor, determined in accordance with GAAP.

12.3. Execution and Delivery of Guarantee.

To further evidence the Guarantees set forth in Section 12.1, each Guarantor, upon the execution and delivery of this Indenture or a Guarantee pursuant to Section 4.15 or 4.20, hereby agrees that a notation of its Guarantee, substantially in the form of Exhibit E hereto, shall be endorsed on each Security authenticated and delivered by the Trustee.  The Guarantee of any Guarantor shall be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by either manual or facsimile signature of two Officers of such Guarantor, each of whom, in each case, shall have been duly authorized to so execute by all requisite corporate action.  The validity and enforceability of any Guarantee shall not be affected by the fact that it is not affixed to any particular Security.

Each of the Guarantors, upon the execution and delivery of this Indenture or a Guarantee pursuant to Section 4.15 or 4.20, hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 12.1 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Security a notation of such Guarantee.

If an Officer of a Guarantor whose signature is on this Indenture or a Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Security on which such Guarantee is endorsed or at any time thereafter, such Guarantor’s Guarantee of such Security shall nevertheless be valid.

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

12.4. Release of a Guarantor.

(a) If no Default or Event of Default exists or would exist under this Indenture, upon the sale or disposition of all of the Capital Stock of a Guarantor by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, in a transaction or series of related transactions that either (i) does not constitute an Asset Sale or (ii) constitutes an Asset Sale and such Asset Sale is not in violation of Section 4.18, or upon the consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into any Person in compliance with Article Five (in each case, other than to the Company or an Affiliate of the Company), or if any Guarantor is dissolved or liquidated in accordance with this Indenture, such Guarantor’s Guarantee will be automatically discharged and such Guarantor shall be released from all obligations under this Article Twelve without any further action required on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.  Any Guarantor not so released or the entity surviving such Guarantor, as applicable, shall remain or be liable under its Guarantee as provided in this Article Twelve.

(b) In addition, each such Guarantee will be automatically discharged and the Guarantor party thereto shall be released from all obligations under this Article Twelve without any further action on the part of the Trustee or any Holder upon (i) the release or discharge of the guarantee which resulted in the creation of such Guarantee under such Section 4.15, except a

110

discharge or release by or as a result of payment under such Guarantee or (ii) the designation of such Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.  Any Guarantor not so released or the entity surviving such Guarantor, as applicable, shall remain or be liable under its Guarantee as provided in this Article Twelve.

(c) The Trustee shall deliver an appropriate instrument evidencing the release of a Guarantor upon receipt of a request by the Issuer or such Guarantor accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel certifying as to the compliance with this Section 12.4; provided, however, that the legal counsel delivering such Opinion of Counsel may rely as to matters of fact on one or more Officers’ Certificates of the Company.

The Trustee shall execute any documents reasonably requested by the Issuer or a Guarantor in order to evidence the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under its Guarantee endorsed on the Securities and under this Article Twelve.

Except as set forth in Articles Four and Five and this Section 12.4, nothing contained in this Indenture or in any of the Securities shall prevent any consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into the Issuer or another Guarantor or shall prevent any sale or conveyance of the property of a Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the Issuer or another Guarantor.

12.5. Waiver of Subrogation.

Until this Indenture is discharged and all of the Securities are discharged and paid in full, each Guarantor, upon the execution and delivery of this Indenture or a Guarantee pursuant to Section 4.15 or 4.20, shall hereby irrevocably waive and agrees not to exercise any claim or other rights which it may now or hereafter acquire against the Issuer that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of the Issuer’s obligations under the Securities or this Indenture and such Guarantor’s obligations under its Guarantee and this Indenture, in any such instance, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification, and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Holders against the Issuer, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity, or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from the Issuer, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by setoff or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim or other rights.  If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor in violation of the preceding sentence and any amounts owing to the Trustee or the Holders of Securities under the Securities, this Indenture, or any other document or instrument delivered under or in connection with such agreements or instruments, shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall have been deemed to have been paid to such Guarantor for the benefit of, and held in trust for the benefit of, the Trustee or the Holders and shall forthwith be paid to the Trustee for the benefit of itself or such Holders to be credited and applied to the obligations in favor of the Trustee or the Holders, as the case may be, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.  Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Indenture and that the waiver set forth in this Section 12.5 is knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

111

12.6. Immediate Payment.

Each Guarantor, upon the execution and delivery of this Indenture or a Guarantee pursuant to Section 4.15 or 4.20, shall hereby agree to make immediate payment to the Trustee, on behalf of the Holders or itself, of all Obligations due and owing or payable to the respective Holders or the Trustee upon receipt of a demand for payment therefor by the Trustee to such Guarantor in writing.

12.7. No Setoff.

Each payment to be made by a Guarantor hereunder in respect of the Obligations shall be payable in the currency or currencies in which such Obligations are denominated, and shall be made without setoff, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any kind or nature.

12.8. Obligations Absolute.

The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are and shall be absolute and unconditional and any monies or amounts expressed to be owing or payable by each Guarantor hereunder which may not be recoverable from such Guarantor on the basis of a Guarantee shall be recoverable from such Guarantor as a primary obligor and principal debtor in respect thereof.

12.9. Obligations Continuing.

The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall be continuing and shall remain in full force and effect until all the obligations have been paid and satisfied in full.  Upon the execution and delivery of this Indenture or a Guarantee pursuant to Section 4.15 or 4.20, each Guarantor shall hereby agree with the Trustee that it will from time to time deliver to the Trustee suitable acknowledgments of its continued liability hereunder and under any other instrument or instruments in such form as counsel to the Trustee may advise and as will prevent any action brought against it in respect of any default hereunder being barred by any statute of limitations now or hereafter in force and, in the event of the failure of a Guarantor so to do, it hereby irrevocably appoints the Trustee the attorney and agent of such Guarantor to make, execute and deliver such written acknowledgment or acknowledgments or other instruments as may from time to time become necessary or advisable, in the judgment of the Trustee on the advice of counsel, to fully maintain and keep in force the liability of such Guarantor hereunder and under its Guarantee.

12.10. Obligations Not Reduced.

The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be satisfied, reduced or discharged solely by the payment of such principal, premium, if any, interest, fees and other monies or amounts as may at any time prior to discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Article Eight be or become owing or payable under or by virtue of or otherwise in connection with the Securities or this Indenture.

112

12.11. Obligations Reinstated.

The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment which would otherwise have reduced the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder (whether such payment shall have been made by or on behalf of the Issuer or by or on behalf of a Guarantor) is rescinded or reclaimed from any of the Holders upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of the Issuer or any Guarantor or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.  If demand for, or acceleration of the time for, payment by the Issuer is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of such Issuer, all such Indebtedness otherwise subject to demand for payment or acceleration shall nonetheless be payable by each Guarantor as provided herein.

12.12. Obligations Not Affected.

The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected, impaired or diminished in any way by any act, omission, matter or thing whatsoever, occurring before, upon or after any demand for payment hereunder (and whether or not known or consented to by any Guarantor or any of the Holders) which, but for this provision, might constitute a whole or partial defense to a claim against any Guarantor hereunder or might operate to release or otherwise exonerate any Guarantor from any of its obligations hereunder or otherwise affect such obligations, whether occasioned by default of any of the Holders or otherwise, including, without limitation:

(i) any limitation of status or power, disability, incapacity or other circumstance relating to the Issuer or any other Person, including any insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization, readjustment, composition, dissolution, winding-up or other proceeding involving or affecting such Issuer or any other Person;

(ii) any irregularity, defect, unenforceability or invalidity in respect of any indebtedness or other obligation of the Issuer or any other Person under this Indenture, the Securities or any other document or instrument;

(iii) any failure of the Issuer, whether or not without fault on its part, to perform or comply with any of the provisions of this Indenture or the Securities, or to give notice thereof to a Guarantor;

(iv) the taking or enforcing or exercising or the refusal or neglect to take or enforce or exercise any right or remedy from or against the Issuer or any other Person or their respective assets or the release or discharge of any such right or remedy;

(vi) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, any of the Securities, or any other amendment, variation, supplement, replacement or waiver of, or any consent to departure from, any of the Securities or this Indenture, including, without limitation, any increase or decrease in the principal amount of or premium, if any, or interest on any of the Securities;

113

(vii) any change in the ownership, control, name, objects, businesses, assets, capital structure or constitution of the Issuer or a Guarantor;

(viii) any merger or amalgamation of the Issuer or a Guarantor with any Person or Persons;

(ix) the occurrence of any change in the laws, rules, regulations or ordinances of any jurisdiction by any present or future action of any governmental authority or court amending, varying, reducing or otherwise affecting, or purporting to amend, vary, reduce or otherwise affect, any of the Obligations or the obligations of a Guarantor under its Guarantee; and

(x) any other circumstance, including release of a Guarantor pursuant to Section 12.4 (other than by complete, irrevocable payment) that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of the Issuer under this Indenture or the Securities or of another Guarantor in respect of its Guarantee hereunder;

provided that the provisions of this Section 12.12 are not intended to affect in any way any release of a Guarantor in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.4.

12.13. Waiver.

Without in any way limiting the provisions of Section 12.1 hereof, each Guarantor, upon the execution and delivery of a Guarantee pursuant to Section 4.15 or 4.20, shall hereby waive notice of acceptance hereof, notice of any liability of any Guarantor hereunder, notice or proof of reliance by the Holders upon the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder, and diligence, presentment, demand for payment on the Issuer, protest, notice of dishonor or nonpayment of any of the Obligations, or other notice or formalities to the Issuer or any Guarantor of any kind whatsoever.

12.14. No Obligation to Take Action Against the Issuer.

Neither the Trustee nor any other Person shall have any obligation to enforce or exhaust any rights or remedies or to take any other steps under any security for the Obligations or against the Issuer or any other Person or any property of such Issuer or any other Person before the Trustee is entitled to demand payment and performance by any or all Guarantors of their liabilities and obligations under their Guarantees or under this Indenture.

12.15. Dealing with the Issuer and Others.

The Holders, without releasing, discharging, limiting or otherwise affecting in whole or in part the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor and without the consent of or notice to any Guarantor, may

(i) grant time, renewals, extensions, compromises, concessions, waivers, releases, discharges and other indulgences to the Issuer or any other Person;

114

(ii) take or abstain from taking security or collateral from the Issuer or from perfecting security or collateral of the Issuer;

(iv) accept compromises or arrangements from the Issuer;

(v) apply all monies at any time received from the Issuer or from any security upon such part of the Obligations as the Holders may see fit or change any such application in whole or in part from time to time as the Holders may see fit; and

(vi) otherwise deal with, or waive or modify their right to deal with, the Issuer and all other Persons and any security as the Holders or the Trustee may see fit.

12.16. Default and Enforcement.

If any Guarantor fails to pay in accordance with Section 12.6 hereof, the Trustee may proceed in its name as trustee hereunder in the enforcement of the Guarantee of any such Guarantor and such Guarantor’s obligations thereunder and hereunder by any remedy provided by law, whether by legal proceedings or otherwise, and to recover from such Guarantor the obligations.

12.17. Amendment, etc.

12.20. No Merger or Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.

No Guarantee shall operate by way of merger of any of the obligations of a Guarantor under any other agreement, including, without limitation, this Indenture.  No failure to exercise

115

and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Trustee or the Holders, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under this Indenture or the Securities, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under this Indenture or the Securities preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.  The rights, remedies, powers and privileges in the Guarantee and under this Indenture, the Securities and any other document or instrument between a Guarantor and/or the Issuer and the Trustee are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privilege provided by law.

12.21. Survival of Obligations.

Without prejudice to the survival of any of the other obligations of any Guarantor hereunder, the obligations of each Guarantor under Section 12.1 shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations under the Securities, but only if and to the extent such payment is avoided, and in such case shall be enforceable against such Guarantor to the same extent as prior to any such payment and without regard to and without giving effect to any defense, right of offset or counterclaim available to or which may be asserted by the Issuer or any Guarantor.

12.22. Guarantee in Addition to Other Obligations.

The Obligations of each Guarantor under its Guarantee and this Indenture are in addition to and not in substitution for any other Obligations to the Trustee or to any of the Holders in relation to this Indenture or the Securities and any guarantees or security at any time held by or for the benefit of any of them.

12.23. Severability.

Any provision of this Article Twelve which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate the remaining provisions and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction unless its removal would substantially defeat the basic intent, spirit and purpose of this Indenture and this Article Twelve.

12.24. Successors and Assigns.

Each Guarantee shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each Guarantor and the Trustee and the other Holders and their respective successors and permitted assigns, except that no Guarantor may assign any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder, except as otherwise permitted in this Indenture.

[REVERSE OF SECURITY]

CLEAN HARBORS, INC.

75/8% Senior Secured Note due 2016

1. Interest.

CLEAN HARBORS, INC., a Massachusetts corporation (the “Company”, or the “Issuer,” which terms include any of its successors under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Security at the rate per annum shown above.  The Issuer will pay interest semiannually on February 15 and August 15 of each year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing February 15, 2010.  Interest on this Security will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from and including August 14, 2009.  Interest on this Security will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

The Issuer shall pay interest on overdue principal from time to time on demand at the rate borne by this Security plus 2% and on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) to the extent lawful.

2. Method of Payment.

The Issuer shall pay interest on the Securities (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are the registered Holders at the close of business on the Record Date immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date even if the Securities are canceled on registration of transfer or registration of exchange (including pursuant to an Exchange Offer (as defined in the Indenture)) after such Record Date.  Holders must surrender Securities to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments.  The Issuer shall pay principal, premium, if any and interest in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts (“U.S. Legal Tender”).  However, the Issuer may pay principal, premium, if any, and interest by wire transfer of federal funds, or interest by check payable in such U.S. Legal Tender.  The Issuer may deliver any such interest payment to the Paying Agent or to a Holder at the Holder’s registered address.

3. Paying Agent and Registrar.

Initially, U.S. Bank National Association (the “Trustee”) will act as Paying Agent and Registrar.  The Issuer may change any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-Registrar without notice to the Holders.  The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may, subject to certain exceptions, act as Registrar or co-Registrar.

A-4

4. Indenture.

The Issuer issued the Securities under an Indenture, dated as of August 14, 2009 (the “Indenture”), among the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee and Notes Collateral Agent.  This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the Issuer designated as their 75/8% Senior Secured Notes due 2016.  Capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture unless otherwise defined herein.  The terms of the Securities include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S.C. §§ 77aaa-77bbbb) (the “TIA”), as in effect on the date of the Indenture until such time as the Indenture is qualified under the TIA, and thereafter as in effect on the date on which the Indenture is qualified under the TIA.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Securities are subject to all such terms, and Holders of Securities are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of them.  The Securities are general obligations of the Issuer unlimited in amount.

5. Optional Redemption.

The Issuer may redeem all or any portion of the Securities, on and after August 15, 2012, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the following redemption prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount) if redeemed during the twelve-month period commencing on August 15 of the years set forth below, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption:

Year		Percentage
2012		103.813	%
2013		101.906	%
2014 and thereafter		100.000	%

At any time, or from time to time, prior to August 15, 2012, the Issuer may, at its option, use the Net Cash Proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings to redeem up to 35% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities originally issued under the Indenture at a Redemption Price equal to 107.625% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that after any such redemption the aggregate principal amount of the Securities outstanding must equal at least 65% of the aggregate amount of the Securities originally issued under the Indenture.  In order to effect the foregoing redemption with the net cash proceeds of any Equity Offering, the Issuer shall make such redemption not more than 90 days after the consummation of such Equity Offering.

At any time prior to August 15, 2012, the Issuer may, on one or more occasions, redeem all or any portion of the Securities, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities redeemed, plus the Applicable Premium as of the date of redemption, including accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date.

In addition, at any time and from time to time prior to August 15, 2012, but not more than once in any twelve-month period, the Issuer may redeem up to 10% of the original aggregate principal amount of Securities issued under the Indenture at a Redemption Price of 103% of the

6. Notice of Redemption.

Notice of redemption shall be mailed by first-class mail at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed at such Holder’s registered address.  Securities in denominations of $2,000 may be redeemed only in whole.  The Trustee may select for redemption portions (equal to $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 thereof) of the principal of Securities that have denominations larger than $2,000.

If any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to such Security shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.  A new Security in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Security.  On and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on Securities or portions thereof called for redemption, subject to the provisions of the Indenture.

7. Change of Control Offer.

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Issuer will be required, as and to the extent set forth in the Indenture, to offer to purchase all of the outstanding Securities at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of Securityholders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date); provided however, that notwithstanding the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Issuer shall not be obligated to repurchase the Securities pursuant to this paragraph 7 in the event that the Issuer have exercised their right to redeem all of the Securities under the terms of paragraph 5 hereof).

8. Limitation on Asset Sales.

The Issuer is, subject to certain conditions, obligated to make an offer to purchase Securities at 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the date of repurchase with certain Net Cash Proceeds of certain sales or other dispositions of assets in accordance with the Indenture.

9. Registration Rights.

Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Issuer will be obligated to consummate an exchange offer pursuant to which the Holder of this Security shall have the right to exchange this Security for the Issuer’s 75/8% Senior Secured Notes due 2016, which shall have been registered under the Securities Act, in like principal amount and having terms substantially identical in all material respects to this Security.  The Holders of this Security shall be entitled to receive certain additional interest payments in the event such exchange offer is not consummated and upon certain other conditions, all pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement.

A-6

10. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange.

The Securities are in registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000.  A Holder shall register the transfer of or exchange Securities in accordance with the Indenture.  The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay certain transfer taxes or similar governmental charges payable in connection therewith as permitted by the Indenture.  The Registrar need not register the transfer of or exchange any Securities or portions thereof selected for redemption, except the unredeemed portion of any security being redeemed in part.

11. Persons Deemed Owners.

The registered Holder of a Security shall be treated as the owner of it for all purposes.

12. Unclaimed Funds.

If funds for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest remain unclaimed for two years, the Trustee and the Paying Agent will repay the funds to the Issuer at their request.  After that, all liability of the Trustee and such Paying Agent with respect to such funds shall cease.

13. Discharge Prior to Redemption or Maturity.

The Issuer and any Guarantor may be discharged from their obligations under the Indenture or the Securities and any Guarantee except for certain provisions thereof, and may be discharged from obligations to comply with certain covenants contained in the Indenture and the Securities and any Guarantee, in each case upon satisfaction of certain conditions specified in the Indenture.

14. Amendment; Supplement; Waiver.

Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture and the Securities and any Guarantee may be amended or supplemented with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding, and any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding.  From time to time, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee, without the consent of the Holders, may amend the Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents to cure ambiguities, defects or inconsistencies, and to add Guarantees, to release the Noteholder Secured Parties’ Lien with respect to Collateral in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Indenture and the Security Documents or similar provisions, so long as such change does not, in the good faith determination of the Issuer’s Board of Directors, adversely affect the rights of any of the Holders of the Securities in any material respect. In addition, without the consent of the Holders of the Securities, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend the Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement to provide for the release of Collateral from the Lien of the Indenture and the Security Documents when permitted or required by the Security Documents, the Intercreditor Agreement or the Indenture, to secure any Other Pari Passu Lien

Obligations under the Security Documents and to appropriately include the same in the Intercreditor Agreement, to modify the Intercreditor Agreement to allow for Liens on the Notes Collateral which secure Indebtedness secured by Liens with Junior Lien Priority that are senior to the Liens on the Notes Collateral which secure the ABL Obligations, so long as such Liens with Junior Lien Priority are junior to the Liens securing the Securities to the extent set forth in the definition of “Junior Lien Priority” (or to include such Indebtedness secured by Liens with Junior Lien Priority in the Intercreditor Agreement) or to conform the Indenture, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement to the “Description of the Notes” contained in the Offering Circular.

16. Defaults and Remedies.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of Securities then outstanding may declare all the Securities to be due and payable immediately in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.  Holders of Securities may not enforce the Indenture, the Securities or any Guarantee except as provided in the Indenture.  The Trustee is not obligated to enforce the Indenture, the Securities or the Guarantees, unless it has received indemnity satisfactory to it.  The Indenture permits, subject to certain limitations therein provided, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding to direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power.  The Trustee may withhold from Holders of Securities notice of certain continuing Defaults or Events of Default if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest.

17. Trustee Dealings with Issuer.

The Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Issuer, their Subsidiaries or their respective Affiliates as if it were not the Trustee.

18. No Recourse Against Others.

No Affiliate, stockholder, director, officer, employee or limited liability company member of the Issuer or any of their Subsidiaries shall have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer under the Securities or any Guarantee or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of, such obligations or their creation.  Each Holder of a Security by accepting a Security waives and releases all such liability.  The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Securities.

CLEAN HARBORS, INC., a Massachusetts corporation (the “Company” or the “Issuer,” which terms include any of its successors under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Security at the rate per annum shown above.  The Issuer will pay interest semiannually on February 15 and August 15 of each year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing [          ], 20[ ].  Interest on this Security will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from and including [          ], 20[ ].  Interest on this Security will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

The Issuer shall pay interest on overdue principal from time to time on demand at the rate borne by this Security plus 2% and on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) to the extent lawful.

2. Method of Payment.

The Issuer shall pay interest on the Securities (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are the registered Holders at the close of business on the Record Date immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date even if the Securities are canceled on registration of transfer or registration of exchange (including pursuant to an Exchange Offer (as defined in the Indenture)) after such Record Date.  Holders must surrender Securities to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments.  The Issuer shall pay principal, premium, if any and interest in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts (“U.S. Legal Tender”).  However, the Issuer may pay principal, premium, if any, and interest by wire transfer of federal funds, or interest by check payable in such U.S. Legal Tender.  The Issuer may deliver any such interest payment to the Paying Agent or to a Holder at the Holder’s registered address.

3. Paying Agent and Registrar.

Initially, U.S. Bank National Association (the “Trustee”) will act as Paying Agent and Registrar.  The Issuer may change any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-Registrar without notice to the Holders.  The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may, subject to certain exceptions, act as Registrar or co-Registrar.

4. Indenture.

The Issuer issued the Securities under an Indenture, dated as of August 14, 2009 (the “Indenture”), among the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee and Notes Collateral Agent.  This

B-4

Security is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the Issuer designated as their 75/8% Senior Secured Notes due 2016.  Capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture unless otherwise defined herein.  The terms of the Securities include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S.C. §§ 77aaa-77bbbb) (the “TIA”), as in effect on the date of the Indenture until such time as the Indenture is qualified under the TIA, and thereafter as in effect on the date on which the Indenture is qualified under the TIA.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Securities are subject to all such terms, and Holders of Securities are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of them.  The Securities are general obligations of the Issuer unlimited in amount.

5. Optional Redemption.

The Issuer may redeem all or any portion of the Securities, on and after August 15, 2012, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the following redemption prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount) if redeemed during the twelve-month period commencing on August 15 of the years set forth below, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption:

At any time prior to August 15, 2012, the Issuer may, on one or more occasions, redeem all or any portion of the Securities, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities redeemed, plus the Applicable Premium as of the date of redemption, including accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date.

In addition, at any time and from time to time prior to August 15, 2012, but not more than once in any twelve-month period, the Issuer may redeem up to 10% of the original aggregate principal amount of Securities issued under the Indenture at a Redemption Price of 103% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the applicable Redemption Date.

If any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to such Security shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.  A new Security in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Security.  On and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on Securities or portions thereof called for redemption, subject to the provisions of the Indenture.

7. Change of Control Offer.

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Issuer will be required, as and to the extent set forth in the Indenture, to offer to purchase all of the outstanding Securities at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of Securityholders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date); provided, however, that notwithstanding the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Issuer shall not be obligated to repurchase the Securities pursuant to this paragraph 7 in the event that the Issuer have exercised their right to redeem all of the Securities under the terms of paragraph 5 hereof).

8. Limitation on Asset Sales.

The Issuer is, subject to certain conditions, obligated to make an offer to purchase Securities at 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the date of repurchase with certain Net Cash Proceeds of certain sales or other dispositions of assets in accordance with the Indenture.

10. Denominations, Transfer, Exchange.

The Securities are in registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000.  A Holder shall register the transfer of or exchange Securities in accordance with the Indenture.  The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay certain transfer taxes or similar governmental charges payable in connection therewith as permitted by the Indenture.  The Registrar need not register the transfer of or exchange any Securities or portions thereof selected for redemption, except the unredeemed portion of any security being redeemed in part.

11. Persons Deemed Owners.

The registered Holder of a Security shall be treated as the owner of it for all purposes.

B-6

12. Unclaimed Funds.

If funds for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest remain unclaimed for two years, the Trustee and the Paying Agent will repay the funds to the Issuer at their request.  After that, all liability of the Trustee and such Paying Agent with respect to such funds shall cease.

13. Discharge Prior to Redemption or Maturity.

The Issuer and any Guarantors may be discharged from their obligations under the Indenture or the Securities and any Guarantee except for certain provisions thereof, and may be discharged from obligations to comply with certain covenants contained in the Indenture and the Securities and any Guarantee, in each case upon satisfaction of certain conditions specified in the Indenture.

14. Amendment; Supplement; Waiver.

Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture and the Securities and any Guarantee may be amended or supplemented with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding, and any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding.  From time to time, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee, without the consent of the Holders, may amend the Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents to cure ambiguities, defects or inconsistencies, and to add Guarantees, to release the Noteholder Secured Parties’ Lien with respect to Collateral in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Indenture and the Security Documents or similar provisions, so long as such change does not, in the good faith determination of the Issuer’s Board of Directors, adversely affect the rights of any of the Holders of the Securities in any material respect. In addition, without the consent of the Holders of the Securities, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend the Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement to provide for the release of Collateral from the Lien of the Indenture and the Security Documents when permitted or required by the Security Documents, the Intercreditor Agreement or the Indenture, to secure any Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations under the Security Documents and to appropriately include the same in the Intercreditor Agreement, to modify the Intercreditor Agreement to allow for Liens on the Notes Collateral which secure Indebtedness secured by Liens with Junior Lien Priority that are senior to the Liens on the Notes Collateral which secure the ABL Obligations, so long as such Liens with Junior Lien Priority are junior to the Liens securing the Securities to the extent set forth in the definition of “Junior Lien Priority” (or to include such Indebtedness secured by Liens with Junior Lien Priority in the Intercreditor Agreement) or to conform the Indenture, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement to the “Description of the Notes” contained in the Offering Circular.

15. Restrictive Covenants.

The Indenture contains certain covenants that, among other things, limit the ability of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries to make restricted payments, to incur indebtedness, to create liens, to sell assets, to permit restrictions on dividends and other payments by Restricted

16. Defaults and Remedies.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of Securities then outstanding may declare all the Securities to be due and payable immediately in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.  Holders of Securities may not enforce the Indenture, the Securities or any Guarantee except as provided in the Indenture.  The Trustee is not obligated to enforce the Indenture, the Securities or the Guarantees, unless it has received indemnity satisfactory to it.  The Indenture permits, subject to certain limitations therein provided, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding to direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power.  The Trustee may withhold from Holders of Securities notice of certain continuing Defaults or Events of Default if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest.

17. Trustee Dealings with Issuer.

The Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Issuer, their Subsidiaries or their respective Affiliates as if it were not the Trustee.

2. We understand that any subsequent transfer of the Securities is subject to certain restrictions and conditions set forth in the Indenture relating to the Securities (as described in the Offering Circular) and the undersigned agrees to be bound by, and not to resell, pledge or otherwise transfer the Securities except in compliance with, such restrictions and conditions and the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

3. We understand that the offer and sale of the Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act, and that the Securities may not be offered or sold except as permitted in the following sentence.  We agree, on our own behalf and on behalf of any accounts for which we are acting as hereinafter stated, that if we should sell or otherwise transfer any Securities prior to the date which is two years after the original issuance of the Securities, and if such transfer is in respect of any aggregate principal amount of Securities of less than $250,000, also furnishes an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Issuer that such transfer complies with the Securities Act, we will do so only (i) to the Issuer or any of their subsidiaries, (ii) inside the United States in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act to a “qualified institutional buyer” (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act), (iii) inside the United States to an institutional “accredited investor” (as defined below) that, prior to such transfer, furnishes (or has furnished on its behalf by a U.S. broker-dealer) to the Trustee (as defined in the Indenture relating

4. We understand that, on any proposed resale of any Securities, we will be required to furnish to the Trustee and the Issuer such certification, legal opinions and other information as the Trustee and the Issuer may reasonably require to confirm that the proposed sale complies with the foregoing restrictions.  We further understand that the Securities purchased by us will bear a legend to the foregoing effect.

5. We are an institutional “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Regulation D under the Securities Act) and have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of our investment in the Securities, and we and any accounts for which we are acting are each able to bear the economic risk of our or their investment, as the case may be.

6. We are acquiring the Securities purchased by us for our account or for one or more accounts (each of which is an institutional “accredited investor”) as to each of which we exercise sole investment discretion, and we are acquiring the Securities not with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution in violation of the Securities Act.

You and the Issuer are entitled to rely upon this letter and are irrevocably authorized to produce this letter or a copy hereof to any interested party in any administrative or legal proceeding or official inquiry with respect to the matters covered hereby.
