From and after the date of this Supplemental Indenture, all references to the Indenture (whether in the Indenture or in any other agreements, documents or instruments) shall be deemed to be references to the Indenture as amended and supplemented by this Supplemental Indenture and every Holder of Notes heretofore or hereafter authenticated and delivered shall be bound hereby.

If the Issuers notify the Trustee in writing (email being sufficient) that the Issuers no longer wish to obtain the Amendments and do not intend to pay the Consent Fee at any time, this Supplemental Indenture shall, from and after the Issuers’ delivery of such notice to the Trustee, become and be null and void ab initio.
