SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE
SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE (this "Supplemental Indenture"), dated as of April
15, 2005 among AMR Brockton L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability (the
"Guaranteeing Subsidiary"), a subsidiary of American Medical Response of
Massachusetts, Inc. (or its permitted successor), a Delaware corporation, the
Issuers (as defined in the Indenture referred to herein), the other Guarantors
(as defined in the Indenture) and U.S. Bank Trust National Association, as
trustee under the Indenture referred to below (the "Trustee").
W I T N E S S E T H
WHEREAS, the Issuers and the Guarantors party thereto have heretofore
executed and delivered to the Trustee an indenture (the "Indenture"), dated as
of February 10, 2005 providing for the issuance of 10% Senior Subordinated Notes
due 2015 (the "Notes");
WHEREAS, the Indenture provides that under certain circumstances the
Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental
indenture pursuant to which the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall unconditionally
guarantee all of the Issuers' Obligations under the Notes and the Indenture on
the terms and conditions set forth herein (the "Subsidiary Guarantee"); and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Indenture, the Trustee is
authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the
Guaranteeing Subsidiary and the Trustee mutually covenant and agree for the
equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes as follows:
1. Capitalized Terms. Capitalized terms used herein without definition
shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.
2. Agreement to Guarantee. The Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby agrees as
follows:
(a) Along with all other Guarantors, to jointly and severally
unconditionally Guarantee to each Holder of a Note authenticated and
delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and
assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of the Indenture,
the Notes or the obligations of the Issuers hereunder or thereunder, that:
(i) the principal of and interest on the Notes will be
promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by
acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue
principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all
other obligations of the Issuers to the Holders or the Trustee
hereunder or thereunder will be promptly paid in full or performed,
all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and
(ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of
any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same will be
promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the
terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by
acceleration or otherwise. Failing payment when due of any amount so
guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the
Guarantors shall
be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each
Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a
guarantee of collection.
(b) The obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective
of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or the
Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or
consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof
or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuers, any action
to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise
constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a Guarantor.
Subject to Section 6.06 of the Indenture, each Guarantor hereby waives
diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court
in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of an Issuer, any right to
require a proceeding first against an Issuer, protest, notice and all
demands whatsoever and covenant that this Subsidiary Guarantee shall not
be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained
in the Notes and the Indenture.
(c) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or
otherwise to return to the Issuers, the Guarantors, or any Custodian,
Trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either
the Issuers or the Guarantors, any amount paid by either to the Trustee or
such Holder, this Subsidiary Guarantee, to the extent theretofore
discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.
(f) The Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall not be entitled to any right
of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations
guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed
hereby. The Guaranteeing Subsidiary further agrees that, as between the
Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other
hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be
accelerated as provided in Article 6 of the Indenture for the purposes of
this Subsidiary Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other
prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations
guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration
of such obligations as provided in Article 6 of the Indenture, such
obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due
and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Subsidiary
Guarantee. The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from
any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not
impair the rights of the Holders under the Guarantee.
(i) Pursuant to Section 10.02 of the Indenture, after giving effect
to any maximum amount and any other contingent and fixed liabilities that
are relevant under any applicable Bankruptcy or fraudulent conveyance
laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive
contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor
in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under Article 10 of
the Indenture shall result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its
Subsidiary Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.
3. Execution and Delivery. Each Guaranteeing Subsidiary agrees that the
Subsidiary Guarantees shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any
failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Subsidiary Guarantee.
4. Releases.
(a) The Subsidiary Guarantee of a Subsidiary Guarantor shall be released:
(i) in connection with any sale or other disposition of all or
substantially all of the assets of that Subsidiary Guarantor (including by
way of merger or consolidation), if the Issuer
2
that directly or indirectly owns such Subsidiary Guarantor applies the Net
Proceeds of such sale or other disposition, in accordance with the
applicable provisions of the Indenture;
(ii) in connection with the sale of all of the capital stock of a
Subsidiary Guarantor, if the Issuer that directly or indirectly owns such
Subsidiary Guarantor applies the Net Proceeds of that sale, in accordance
with the applicable provisions of the Indenture;
(iii) in connection with any transaction which results in a
Subsidiary Guarantor ceasing to be a Restricted Subsidiary of an Issuer,
if the transaction is not in violation of the applicable provisions of the
Indenture;
(iv) if an Issuer designates any Restricted Subsidiary of such
Issuer that is a Subsidiary Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, in
accordance with the applicable provisions of the Indenture; or
(v) if a Subsidiary Guarantor has no outstanding Indebtedness after
giving effect to such release other than pursuant to clause (2), (4), (5),
(6) (with respect to Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of
Indebtedness initially incurred under clause (2) or (5) only), (7), (10),
(11), (12), (13), (14) or (15) of Section 4.09 of the Indenture or
pursuant to clause (9) of Section 4.09 of the Indenture (with respect to
Indebtedness incurred under any of the foregoing clauses) and an Officers'
Certificate certifying the foregoing is presented to the Trustee together
with a request to release such Subsidiary Guarantor from its Subsidiary
Guarantee.
Upon delivery by the Issuers to the Trustee of an Officers' Certificate
and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such sale or other disposition was
made by the Issuers in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture,
including without limitation Section 4.10 of the Indenture, the Trustee shall
execute any documents reasonably required in order to evidence the release of
any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee.
(b) Any Subsidiary Guarantor not released from its obligations under its
Subsidiary Guarantee shall remain liable for the full amount of principal of and
interest on the Notes and for the other obligations of any Guarantor under the
Indenture as provided in Article 11 of the Indenture.
6. No Recourse Against Others. No past, present or future director,
officer, employee, incorporator, stockholder or agent of Parent or the
Guaranteeing Subsidiary, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations
of the Issuers, Parent or any Guaranteeing Subsidiary under the Notes, any
Guarantees, the Indenture or this Supplemental Indenture or for any claim based
on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each
Holder of the Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability.
The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes.
Such waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal
securities laws and it is the view of the SEC that such a waiver is against
public policy.
7. NEW YORK LAW TO GOVERN. THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL
GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THIS SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE BUT WITHOUT GIVING
EFFECT TO APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW TO THE EXTENT THAT THE
APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY.
8 Counterparts. The parties may sign any number of copies of this
Supplemental Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them
together represent the same agreement.

9. Effect of Headings. The Section headings herein are for convenience
only and shall not affect the construction hereof.
10. The Trustee. The Trustee shall not be responsible in any manner
whatsoever for or in respect of the validity or sufficiency of this Supplemental
Indenture or for or in respect of the recitals contained herein, all of which
recitals are made solely by the Guaranteeing Subsidiary and the Issuers.
