Section 1. Definitions.
Unless otherwise stated or unless the context shall otherwise

Indenture, the New Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees to become a Subsidiary
Guarantor pursuant to the Indenture and to assume all obligations of the

hereafter authenticated and delivered under the Indenture as supplemented by the
Fifth Supplemental Indenture shall be entitled to the benefit thereof and hereof
and be bound thereby and hereby.

confirms that it is a solvent corporation, limited liability company, or other

for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or
