For purposes of determining the redemption price, the following definitions shall apply:

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the U.S. Treasury security or securities selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed (assuming, for this purpose, that the Notes matured on the Par Call Date (the “Remaining Life”)) that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of a comparable maturity to the Remaining Life of the Notes to be redeemed (including, with respect to the definition of the term “Remaining Life”).

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, for any Redemption Date, (1) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations or (2) if the Issuer obtains fewer than five such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.

“Independent Investment Banker” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by the Issuer.

“Reference Treasury Dealers” means each of Barclays Capital Inc., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and a Primary Treasury Dealer (as defined below) selected by MUFG Securities Americas Inc., or an affiliate or successor of the foregoing, and two Primary Treasury Dealers selected by the Issuer; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing shall cease to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in New York City (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Issuer shall substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, for each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Issuer, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Issuer by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the third business day preceding such Redemption Date.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date.

6. Mandatory Redemption. The Issuer shall not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes or to repurchase them at the option of the Holders.

Exhibit A-5

7. Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption shall be mailed by first class mail (or, in the case of Global Securities, transmitted electronically) at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address. Notes in denominations larger than $2,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed. On and after the Redemption Date interest shall cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption and with respect to which the redemption price has been paid.

8. Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents, and the Issuer may require a Holder to pay any taxes or other governmental charges imposed in relation thereto.

9. Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Holder of a Note shall be treated as its owner for all purposes.

10. Amendment, Supplement and Waiver. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes, and any existing default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture relating to the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes. Without the consent of any Holder of a Note, the Indenture may be amended or supplemented for any of the purposes set forth in Section 9.01 of the Indenture, including to provide for the assumption of the Issuer’s obligations to Holders of the Notes in case of a merger or consolidation of the Issuer or sale of all or substantially all of the Issuer’s assets, to add to the covenants of the Issuer or any Guarantor, to cure any ambiguity or omission or to correct any defect or inconsistency, to permit the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA, to add or reflect the release of Guarantors pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights under the Indenture of any Holder of the Notes, to add to, change or eliminate any of the provisions of the Indenture in respect of one or more series of Debt Securities in certain circumstances, to evidence or provide for the acceptance of appointment under the Indenture of a successor or separate Trustee or to establish the form or terms of any other series of Debt Securities.

11. Defaults and Remedies. Each of the following constitutes an Event of Default with respect to the Notes: (i) default in the payment of any installment of interest upon the Notes as and when due and payable, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days; (ii) default in the payment of all or any part of the principal on any of the Notes as and when the same shall become due and payable either at Stated Maturity, upon any redemption, by declaration or otherwise; (iii) default in the performance, or breach, of any covenant or agreement of the Issuer or the Guarantor in respect of the Notes (other than a covenant or agreement in respect of the Notes a default in the performance of which or the breach of which is elsewhere in Section 6.01 of the Indenture specifically dealt with) and continuance of such default or breach for a period of 60 days (or 180 days in the case of a Reporting Failure) after there has been given to the Issuer and the Guarantor by the Trustee or to the Issuer, the Guarantor and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of

Exhibit A-6

Default” hereunder; (iv) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization with respect to the Issuer or, if and so long as the Notes are guaranteed by a Guarantor, such Guarantor; (v) any Guarantee ceasing to be in full force and effect (except as otherwise provided in the Indenture), being declared in any judicial proceeding to be null and void, or being denied or disaffirmed by the applicable Guarantor; and (vi) either (1) default in the payment of any Indebtedness of the Issuer, the Guarantor or any Subsidiary of the Issuer after the expiration of any applicable grace period after final maturity or (2) the acceleration of Indebtedness of the Issuer, the Guarantor or any Subsidiary of the Issuer by the holders thereof because of a default and, in either case, the total amount of the Indebtedness unpaid or accelerated exceeds $50 million; provided, however, that the occurrence of any of the events described in clause (iii) above shall not constitute an Event of Default if such occurrence is the result of changes in generally accepted accounting principles as recognized by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants at the date as of which the Seventh Supplemental Indenture is executed and a certificate to such effect is delivered to the Trustee by the Issuer’s independent public accountants.

If any Event of Default, other than one described in clause (iv) above, occurs and is continuing, then, unless the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest on all the Notes shall have already become due and payable, either the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes may declare the principal of and interest on all the Notes to be due and payable. In the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, then in each and every such case, unless the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest on all the Notes shall have already become due and payable, the principal of and interest on all the Notes shall become due and payable immediately, without further action or notice.

Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default (except a Default relating to the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest) if the Trustee determines in good faith that withholding notice is in the Holders’ interests. The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any past Default or Event of Default and its consequences under the Indenture except a Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest on, the principal of, or premium, if any, on, the Notes or an Event of Default relating to a provision of the Indenture that cannot be amended without the consent of each Holder affected thereby. The Partnership is required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the Partnership is required within 30 days after it becomes aware of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of Default and certain additional information.

12. Authentication. This Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent.

13. Abbreviations. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).

Exhibit A-7

14. CUSIP and ISIN Numbers. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Issuer has caused CUSIP and corresponding ISIN numbers to be printed on the Notes, and the Trustee may use CUSIP and corresponding ISIN numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

The Issuer shall furnish to any Holder upon written request and without charge a copy of the Indenture. Requests may be made to:
