Obligation.
----------
(a) This Guarantee shall be a continuing guarantee of the
payment and performance of all Indenture Obligations and shall remain in full

limiting the generality of the foregoing, Guarantor's liability shall extend to
all amounts which constitute part of the Indenture Obligations and would be owed

representations, warranties or promises have been made to Guarantor affecting
its liabilities hereunder, and that the Trustee shall not be bound by any
representations, warranties or promises now or at any time hereafter made by the
Company to Guarantor.
(e) This Guarantee is a guarantee of payment, performance and
compliance and not of collectibility and is in no way conditioned or contingent
upon any attempt to collect from or enforce performance or compliance by the
Company or upon any other event or condition whatsoever.
(f) The obligations of Guarantor set forth herein constitute the
full recourse obligations of Guarantor enforceable against it to the full extent
of all its assets and properties.

or taking advantage of any security;

(g) the Trustee's or the Holders' acceptance of compositions
from the Company or Guarantor;
(h) the application by the Holders or the Trustee of all monies

9
(n) any arrangement or plan of reorganization affecting the
Company or Guarantor;
(o) any failure, omission or delay on the part of the Company to
conform or comply with any term of the Indenture;

Company or any other person under the Indenture, or any discharge, termination,
cancellation, distribution, irregularity, invalidity or unenforceability, in
whole or in part, of the Indenture;
(q) any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a
defense available to, or discharge of, the Company or Guarantor; or

Trustee, or by operation law or otherwise, of the Indenture Obligations or the
liability of the Company or any other obligor under the Securities or of any
collateral, in whole or in part, and any refusal of payment by the Trustee, in
whole or in part, from any other obligor or other guarantor in connection with
any of the Indenture Obligations, whether or not with notice to or further
assent by, or any reservation of rights against, Guarantor.
2.4 Right to Demand Full Performance. In the event of any demand for
--------------------------------
payment or performance by the Trustee from Guarantor hereunder, the Trustee or
the Holders shall have the right to demand its full claim and to receive all
dividends or other payments in respect thereof until the
10
Indenture Obligations have been paid in full and Guarantor shall continue to be
liable hereunder for any balance which may be owing to the Trustee or the
Holders by the Company under the Indenture and the Securities. The retention by
the Trustee or the Holders of any security, prior to the realization by the
Trustee or the Holders of its rights to such security upon foreclosure thereon,
shall not, as between the Trustee and Guarantor, be considered as a purchase of
such security, or as payment, satisfaction or reduction of the Indenture
Obligations due to the Trustee or the Holders by the Company or any part
thereof. Guarantor, promptly after demand, will reimburse the Trustee and the
Holders for all costs and expenses of collecting such amount under, or enforcing
this Guarantee, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses
of counsel.
2.5 Waivers.
-------
(a) Guarantor hereby expressly waives (to the extent permitted
by law) notice of the acceptance of this Guarantee and notice of the incurrence,
existence, renewal, extension or the non-performance, non-payment, or non-
observance on the part of the Company of any of the terms, covenants, conditions
and provisions of the Indenture or the Securities or any other notice whatsoever
to or upon the Company or Guarantor with respect to the Indenture Obligations,
whether by statute, rule of law or otherwise. Guarantor hereby acknowledges
communication to it of the terms of the Indenture and the Securities and all of
the
11
provisions therein contained and consents to and approves the same. Guarantor
hereby expressly waives (to the extent permitted by law) diligence, presentment,
protest and demand for payment with respect to (i) any notice of any sale,
transfer or other disposition of any right, title to or interest in the
Securities by the Holders or in the Indenture, (ii) any release of Guarantor
from its obligations hereunder resulting from any loss by it of its rights of
subrogation hereunder and (iii) any other circumstance whatsoever that might
otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge, release or defense of a
guarantor or surety or that might otherwise limit recourse against Guarantor.
(b) Without prejudice to any of the rights or resources which
the Trustee or the Holders may have against the Company, Guarantor hereby
expressly waives (to the extent permitted by law) any right to require the
Trustee or the Holders to:
(i) enforce, assert, exercise, initiate or exhaust any
rights, remedies or recourse against the Company, Guarantor or any other
Person under the Indenture or otherwise;
(ii) value, realize upon or dispose of any security of the
Company or any other Person held by the Trustee or the Holders;
12
(iii) initiate or exhaust any other remedy which the Trustee
or the Holders may have in law or equity; or
(iv) mitigate the damages resulting from any default under
the Indenture;
before requiring or becoming entitled to demand payment from Guarantor under
this Guarantee.
2.6 Guarantor Remains Obligated in the Event the Company Is No Longer
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Obligated to Discharge Indenture Obligations. It is the express intention of
--------------------------------------------
the Trustee and Guarantor that if for any reason the Company has no legal
existence, is or becomes under no legal obligation to discharge the Indenture
Obligations owing to the Trustee or the Holders by the Company or if any of the
Indenture Obligations owing by the Company to the Trustee or the Holders becomes
irrecoverable from the Company by operation of law or for any reason whatsoever,
this Guarantee and the covenants, agreements and obligations of Guarantor
contained in this Article Two shall nevertheless be binding upon Guarantor, as a
principal debtor, until such time as all such Indenture Obligations have been
paid in full to the Trustee and all Indenture Obligations owing to the Trustee
or the Holders by the Company have been discharged, or such earlier time as
Section 402 shall apply to the Securities and Guarantor shall be responsible for
the payment thereof to the Trustee or the Holders upon demand.
13
2.7 Waiver of Rights. Guarantor agrees (to the extent permitted by
----------------
law) that it hereby waives and will not in any manner whatsoever claim or take
the benefit or advantage of, any rights of reimbursement, exoneration,
contribution, indemnity or subrogation (whether contractual, under Section 509
of Title Eleven of the United States Code, under common law or otherwise) or any
similar rights or "claims" (as such term is defined under Title Eleven of the
United States Code), against the Company or any Subsidiary arising from the
existence of, or performance by, Guarantor under this Guarantee.
2.8 Guarantee Is In Addition to Other Security.
------------------------------------------
This Guarantee shall be in addition to and not in substitution for any other
guarantees or other security which the Trustee may now or hereafter hold in
respect of the Indenture Obligations owing to the Trustee or the Holders by the
Company, and (except as may be required by law) the Trustee shall be under no
obligation to marshal in favor of Guarantor any other guarantees or other
security or any moneys or other assets which the Trustee may be entitled to
receive or upon which the Trustee or the Holders may have a claim.
2.9 Release of Security Interests. Without limiting the generality
-----------------------------
of the foregoing and except as otherwise provided in the Indenture, Guarantor
hereby consents and agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law,
that the rights of the Trustee hereunder,
14
and the liability of Guarantor hereunder, shall not be affected by any and all
releases for any purpose of any collateral, if any, from the Liens and security
interests created by any collateral document and that this Guarantee shall
continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time
any payment of any of the Indenture Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise
be returned by the Trustee upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of
the Company or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.
2.10 No Bar to Further Actions. Except as provided by law, no action
-------------------------
or proceeding brought or instituted under this Article Two and this Guarantee
and no recovery or judgment in pursuance thereof shall be a bar or defense to
any further action or proceeding which may be brought under this Article Two and
this Guarantee by reason of any further default or defaults under this Article
Two and this Guarantee or in the payment of any of the Indenture Obligations
owing by the Company.
2.11 Failure to Exercise Rights Shall Not Operate As a Waiver; No
------------------------------------------------------------
Suspension of Remedies.
----------------------
(a) No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the
part of the Trustee or the Holders, any right, power, privilege or remedy under
this Article Two and this Guarantee shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall
any single or partial exercise of any right, power, privilege or remedy preclude
any other or further exercise
15
thereof, or the exercise of any other rights, powers, privileges or remedies.
The rights and remedies herein provided for are cumulative and not exclusive of
any rights or remedies provided in law or equity.
(b) Nothing contained in this Article Two shall limit the right
of the Trustee or the Holders to take any action to accelerate the maturity of
the Securities pursuant to Article Five or to pursue any rights or remedies
hereunder or under applicable law.
2.12 Trustee's Duties; Notice to Trustee.
-----------------------------------
(a) Any provision in this Article Two or elsewhere in the
Indenture allowing the Trustee to request any information or to take any action
authorized by, or on behalf of, Guarantor shall be permissive and shall not be
obligatory on the Trustee except as the Holders may direct in accordance with
the provisions of the Indenture or where the failure of the Trustee to request
any such information or to take any such action arises from the Trustee's
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.
(b) The Trustee shall not be required to inquire into the
existence, powers or capacities of the Company, Guarantor or the officers,
directors or agents acting or purporting to act on their respective behalf.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article Two or any
other provision of the Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with
knowledge of the existence of any facts which would prohibit the making of any
payment
16
to or by the Trustee in respect of the Securities, unless and until the Trustee
shall have received written notice thereof from the Company; and, prior to the
receipt of any such written notice, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of
Section 601, shall be entitled in all respects to assume that no such facts
exist, provided however, that if a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall not
-------- -------
have received any such notice from the Company at least three Business Days
prior to the date upon which by the terms hereof any money may become payable
for any purpose (including, without limitation, the payment of the principal of,
premium, if any, or interest on, any Security), then, anything herein contained
to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall have full power and authority
to receive such money and to apply the same to the purpose for which such money
was received and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary which may
be received by it within two Business Days prior to such date; nor shall the
Trustee be charged with knowledge of the curing of any such default or the
elimination of the act or condition preventing any such payment unless and until
the Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received an Officers'
Certificate to such effect.
(d) In case that at any time any Paying Agent other than the
Trustee shall have been appointed by the Company and be then acting hereunder,
the term "Trustee" as used in this Article Two shall in such case (unless the
17
context otherwise requires) be construed as extending to and including such
Paying Agent within its meaning as fully for all intents and purposes as if such
Paying Agent were named in this Article Two in addition to or in place of the
Trustee.
2.13 Successors and Assigns. All terms, agreements and conditions of
----------------------
this Article Two shall extend to and be binding upon Guarantor and its
successors and permitted assigns and shall enure to the benefit of and may be
enforced by the Trustee and its successors and assigns; provided, however, that
-------- -------
Guarantor may not assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder other than
in accordance with Article Eight.
2.14 Release of Guarantee. Concurrently with the payment in full of
--------------------
all of the Indenture Obligations, Guarantor shall be released from and relieved
of its obligations under this Article Two. Upon the delivery by the Company to
the Trustee of an Officers' Certificate and, if requested by the Trustee, an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the transaction giving rise to the release
of this Guarantee was made by the Company in accordance with the provisions of
the Indenture and the Securities, the Trustee shall execute any documents
reasonably required in order to evidence the release of Guarantor from its
obligations under this Guarantee. If any of the Indenture Obligations are
revived and reinstated after the termination of this Guarantee, then all of the
obligations of Guarantor
18
under this Guarantee shall be revived and reinstated as if this Guarantee had
not been terminated until such time as the Indenture Obligations are paid in
full, and Guarantor shall enter into an amendment to this Guarantee, reasonably
satisfactory to the Trustee, evidencing such revival and reinstatement.
This Guarantee shall terminate upon a merger or consolidation of
Guarantor with the Company, in accordance with Article Eight.
This Guarantee shall be automatically and unconditionally released and
discharged upon the occurrence of any of the conditions set forth in
Section 1013(d) of the Indenture.
2.15 Execution of Guarantee. To evidence the Guarantee, Guarantor
----------------------
hereby agrees upon request of the Trustee to execute a guarantee substantially
in the form set forth in Section 205, with appropriate name and reference
changes, to be endorsed on each Security authenticated and delivered by the
Trustee and that this Supplemental Indenture shall be executed on behalf of
Guarantor by its Chairman of the Board, its President or one of its Vice
Presidents, under its corporate seal reproduced thereon attested by its
Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries. The signature of any of these
officers on the Securities may be manual or facsimile.
If an officer whose signature is on this Supplemental Indenture no
longer holds that office at the
19
time the Trustee authenticates a Security on which this Guarantee is endorsed,
such Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless.
2.16 Guarantee Subordinate to Senior Guarantor Indebtedness.
------------------------------------------------------
Guarantor covenants and agrees and each Holder of a Security, by his acceptance
thereof, likewise covenants and agrees, that, to the extent and in the manner
hereinafter set forth in this Article Two, this Guarantee is hereby subordinate
and subject in right of payment as provided in this Article to the prior payment
in full, in cash or Cash Equivalents or in any other manner acceptable to the
requisite holders of Designated Senior Guarantor Indebtedness, of all Senior
Guarantor Indebtedness; provided, however, that the Indebtedness represented by
-------- -------
this Guarantee in all respects shall rank equally with, or prior to, all
existing and future unsecured Indebtedness of Guarantor that is subordinated to
Senior Guarantor Indebtedness.
This Article Two shall constitute a continuing offer to all Persons
who, in reliance upon such provisions, become holders of, or continue to hold,
Senior Guarantor Indebtedness, and such provisions are made for the benefit of
the holders of Senior Guarantor Indebtedness; and such holders are made obligees
hereunder and they or each of them may enforce such provisions.

respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest on he Securities or on

may be received from the holders of Subordinated Indebtedness as a result of any
payment on such Subordinated Indebtedness) shall be paid over or delivered
forthwith to the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, liquidating trustee,
custodian, assignee, agent or other person making payment or distribution of
assets of Guarantor for application to the payment of all Senior Guarantor

consolidation or the surviving entity of such merger or the Person which
acquires by sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposal such

of the Securities or the Trustee, shall, as among Guarantor, its creditors other
than holders of Senior Guarantor Indebtedness, and the Holders of the
Securities, be deemed to be a payment or distribution by Guarantor to or on
account of the Senior Guarantor Indebtedness.
2.21 Provisions Solely to Define Relative Rights.
-------------------------------------------
The provisions of Section 2.16 through 2.30 of this Supplemental Indenture are
intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Holders
of the
26
Securities on the one hand and the holders of Senior Guarantor Indebtedness on
the other hand. Nothing contained in this Article or elsewhere in the Indenture
or in the Securities is intended to or shall (a) impair as among Guarantor, its
creditors other than holders of Senior Guarantor Indebtedness and the Holders of
the Securities, the obligation of Guarantor, which is absolute and
unconditional, to pay to the Holders of the Securities the principal of,
premium, if any, and interest on the Securities as and when the same shall
become due and payable in accordance with their terms; or (b) affect the
relative rights against Guarantor of the Holders of the Securities and creditors
of Guarantor other than the holders of Senior Guarantor Indebtedness; or
(c) prevent the Trustee or the Holder of any Security from exercising all
remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under the Indenture,
subject to the rights, if any, under this Article of the holders of Senior
Guarantor Indebtedness (1) in any case, proceeding, dissolution, liquidation or
other winding up, assignment for the benefit of creditors or other marshaling of
assets and liabilities of Guarantor referred to in Section 2.17 of this
Supplemental Indenture to receive, pursuant to and in accordance with such
Section, cash, property and securities otherwise payable or deliverable to the
Trustee or such Holder, or (2) under the conditions specified in Section 2.18 of
this Supplemental Indenture, to prevent any payment prohibited by such Section
27
or enforce their rights pursuant to Section 2.18(c) of this Supplemental
Indenture.
2.22 Trustee to Effectuate Subordination. Each Holder of a Security
-----------------------------------
by his acceptance thereof authorizes and directs the Trustee on his behalf to
take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the
subordination provided in this Article Two and appoints the Trustee his
attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes, including, in the event of any
dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization of Guarantor whether in
bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership proceedings, or otherwise, the timely
filing of a claim for the unpaid balance of the indebtedness of Guarantor owing
to such Holder in the form required in such proceedings and the causing of such
claim to be approved. If the Trustee does not file a proper claim at least 30
days before the expiration of the time to file such claim, then the holders of
Senior Guarantor Indebtedness, and their agents, trustees or other
representatives are authorized to do so on behalf of the Holders.
2.23 No Waiver of Subordination Provisions.
-------------------------------------
(a) No right of any present or future holder of any Senior
Guarantor Indebtedness to enforce subordination as herein provided shall at any
time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the
part of Guarantor or by any act or failure to act by any such holder, or by any
non-compliance by Guarantor with
28
the terms, provisions and covenants of the Indenture, regardless of any
knowledge thereof any such holder may have or be otherwise charged with.
(b) Without limiting the generality of Subsection (a) of this
Section, the holders of Senior Guarantor Indebtedness may, at any time and from
time to time, without the consent of or notice to the Trustee or the Holders of
the Securities, without incurring responsibility to the Holders of the
Securities and without impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this
Article Two or the obligations hereunder of the Holders of the Securities to the
holders of Senior Guarantor Indebtedness, do any one or more of the following:
(1) change the manner, place or terms of payment or extend the time of payment
of, or renew or alter, Senior Guarantor Indebtedness (or the Senior Indebtedness
guaranteed thereby) or any instrument evidencing the same or any agreement under
which Senior Guarantor Indebtedness (or the Senior Indebtedness guaranteed
thereby) is outstanding; (2) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any
property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing Senior Guarantor Indebtedness
(or the Senior Indebtedness guaranteed thereby); (3) release any Person liable
in any manner for the collection or payment of Senior Guarantor Indebtedness (or
the Senior Indebtedness guaranteed thereby); and (4) exercise or refrain from
exercising any rights against Guarantor and any other Person; provided, however,
-------- -------
that in
29
no event shall any such actions limit the right of the Holders of the Securities
to take any action to accelerate the maturity of the Securities in accordance
with provisions described under Article Five or to pursue any rights or remedies
hereunder or under applicable laws if the taking of such action does not
otherwise violate the terms of this Article Two.
2.24 Notice to Trustee by Guarantor.
------------------------------
(a) Guarantor shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of
any fact known to Guarantor which would prohibit the making of any payment to or
by the Trustee in respect of any Guarantee. Notwithstanding the provisions of
this Article Two or any provision of the Indenture, the Trustee shall not be
charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts which would prohibit the
making of any payment to or by the Trustee in respect of Securities, unless and
until the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof from Guarantor or a
holder of Senior Guarantor Indebtedness or from a representative of Senior
Guarantor Indebtedness or any trustee, fiduciary or agent therefor; and, prior
to the receipt of any such written notice, the Trustee shall be entitled in all
respects to assume that no such facts exist; provided, however, that if the
-------- -------
Trustee shall not have received the notice provided for in this Section at least
two Business Days prior to the date upon which by the terms hereof any money may
become payable for any purpose (including, without limitation, the payment
30
of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Security), then,
anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding but without limiting
the rights and remedies of the holders of Senior Guarantor Indebtedness or any
trustee, fiduciary or agent thereof, the Trustee shall have full power and
authority to receive such money and to apply the same to the purpose for which
such money was received and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary
which may be received by it within two Business Days prior to such date; nor
shall the Trustee be charged with knowledge of the curing of any such default or
the elimination of the act or condition preventing any such payment unless and
until the Trustee shall have received an Officers' Certificate to such effect.
(b) The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the delivery to it
of a written notice to the Trustee and Guarantor by a Person representing
himself to be a representative of a holder or a holder of Senior Guarantor
Indebtedness (or a trustee, fiduciary or agent therefor) to establish that such
notice has been given by a representative or a holder of Senior Guarantor
Indebtedness (or a trustee, fiduciary or agent therefor); provided, however,
-------- -------
that failure to give such notice to Guarantor shall not affect in any way the
ability of the Trustee to rely on such notice. In the event that the Trustee
determines in good faith that further evidence is required with respect to the
right of any Person as a holder of Senior Guarantor
31
Indebtedness to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this
Article Two, the Trustee may request such Person to furnish evidence to the
reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of Senior Guarantor
Indebtedness held by such Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to
participate in such payment or distribution and any other facts pertinent to the
rights of such Person under this Article Two, and if such evidence is not
furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such Person pending judicial
determination as to the right of such Person to receive such payment.
2.25 Reliance on Judicial Order or Certificate of Liquidating Agent.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Upon any payment or distribution of assets of Guarantor referred to in this
Article Two, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities shall be entitled to
rely upon any order or decree entered by any court of competent jurisdiction in
which such insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, reorganization,
dissolution, winding up or similar case or proceeding is pending, or a
certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, liquidating trustee,
custodian, assignee for the benefit of creditors, agent or other person making
such payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the Holders of
Securities, for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate
in such payment or distribution, the holders of Senior Guarantor Indebtedness
and other indebtedness of Guarantor, the amount thereof or payable
32
thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts
pertinent thereto or to this Article Two, provided that the foregoing shall
--------
apply only if such court has been fully apprised of the provisions of this
Article Two.
2.26 Rights of Trustee as a Holder of Senior Guarantor Indebtedness;
---------------------------------------------------------------
Preservation of Trustee's Rights.
--------------------------------
The Trustee in its individual capacity shall be entitled to all the rights set
forth in this Article Two with respect to any Senior Guarantor Indebtedness
which may at any time be held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of
Senior Guarantor Indebtedness, and nothing in the Indenture shall deprive the
Trustee of any of its rights as such holder. Nothing in this Article Two shall
apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to the
provisions in the Indenture regarding compensation and indemnification of the
Trustee.
2.27 Article Applicable to Paying Agents. In case at any time any
-----------------------------------
Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall have been appointed by the Company and
be then acting under the Indenture, the term "Trustee" as used in this Article
Two shall in such case (unless the context otherwise requires) be construed as
extending to and including such Paying Agent within its meaning as fully for all
intents and purposes as if such Paying Agent were named in this Article Two in
addition to or in place of the Trustee; provided, however, that Section 2.26 of
-------- -------
this Supplemental Indenture
33
shall not apply to Guarantor or any Affiliate of Guarantor if it or such
Affiliate acts as Paying Agent.
2.28 No Suspension of Remedies. Nothing contained in this Article Two
-------------------------
shall limit the right of the Trustee or the Holders of Securities to take any
action to accelerate the maturity of the Securities pursuant to the provisions
described in Article Five and as set forth in the Indenture or to pursue any
rights or remedies hereunder or under applicable law, subject to the rights, if
any, under this Article Two of the holders, from time to time, of Senior
Guarantor Indebtedness to receive the cash, property or securities receivable
upon the exercise of such rights or remedies.
2.29 Trustee's Relation to Senior Guarantor Indebtedness. With
---------------------------------------------------
respect to the holders of Senior Guarantor Indebtedness, the Trustee undertakes
to perform or to observe only such of its covenants and obligations as are
specifically set forth in this Article Two, and no implied covenants or
obligations with respect to the holders of Senior Guarantor Indebtedness shall
be read into this Article Two against the Trustee. The Trustee shall not be
deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Guarantor Indebtedness
and the Trustee shall not be liable to any holder of Senior Guarantor
Indebtedness if it shall mistakenly in the absence of gross negligence or
willful misconduct pay over or deliver to Holders of the Securities, Guarantor
or any other Person moneys or assets to which any
34
holder of Senior Guarantor Indebtedness shall be entitled by virtue of this
Article Two or otherwise.
2.30 Limitation of Guarantor's Guarantee. Notwithstanding any other
-----------------------------------
provision of this Article Two or of the Indenture to the contrary, in the event
that the Guarantee provided pursuant to this Article Two would constitute or
result in a violation of any applicable fraudulent conveyance or similar law of
any relevant jurisdiction, the liability of the Guarantor under this Guarantee
shall be reduced to the maximum amount permissible under such applicable
fraudulent conveyance or similar law after taking into account and giving effect
to all Senior Guarantor Indebtedness.
