“Each holder agrees to the appointment of Trustee, as the initial trustee for the benefit of Holders under this Indenture. Each Holder authorizes the Trustee, through its agents or employees, to execute and deliver any Note Documents and take such actions on its behalf under the provisions of this Indenture and the other Note Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to such Trustee by the terms of this Indenture and the other Note Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.”
(g) The definition of “Notes” in the preamble of the Indenture is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
“Floating Rate Notes due 2012,”
and all corresponding references to “Notes” in the Notes shall mean and be references to the Notes as defined herein; and all references to “Second Priority Senior Secured Floating Rate Notes due 2012” in the Indenture and in the Notes shall be amended and restated to be references to “Floating Rate Notes due 2012.”
(h) Any definition in the Indenture and Notes, reference to which would be eliminated as a result of the elimination of the covenants set forth in Section 2(a) hereof, is hereby deleted.
               3. Indenture Ratified. Except as expressly modified hereby, the Indenture is in all respects ratified and confirmed and all the terms, conditions, and provisions thereof shall remain in full force and effect. This Supplemental Indenture shall form a part of the Indenture for all purposes, and every Holder shall be bound hereby and entitled to the benefits hereof.
               4. Operation of Amendments. This Supplemental Indenture will become effective upon the execution and delivery of this Supplemental Indenture by the Company, the Guarantors, and the Trustee; provided, however, that the Amendments contained herein will become operative only subject to and upon completion of the Debt Exchange (as that term is defined in the Support Agreement, dated as of October 23, 2009, as amended, by and among the Company and certain holders of outstanding Notes).
               5. Governing Law. THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THIS SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE 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.
               6. Severability. Should any provision of this Supplemental Indenture for any reason be declared invalid or unenforceable, such decision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any of the other provisions of this Supplemental Indenture, which other provisions shall remain in full force and effect and the application of such invalid or unenforceable provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable shall be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.
