(a)  The New Parent Guarantor hereby assumes all obligations of the Parent Guarantor under the Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees and shall succeed to and be substituted for the Parent Guarantor with the same effect as if the New Parent Guarantor had been named in the Indenture and the Guarantee as a Parent Guarantor.
