12- 3/4% Senior Notes due 2009

 

Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

 

1. Interest. The Company promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate of 12- 3/4% per annum from the date of original issuance until maturity. The Company shall pay interest and Additional Interest semi-annually on April 15 and October 15 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each an “Interest Payment Date”). Interest on this Note will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance; provided that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date; provided, further, that the first Interest Payment Date shall be October 15, 2003. The Company shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue payments of the principal, Purchase Price and Redemption Price of this Note from time to time on demand at a rate that is 2% per annum in excess of the rate then in effect; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest and Additional Interest, if any (without regard to any applicable grace periods), hereon from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

 

2. Method of Payment. The Company shall pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) and Additional Interest, if any, to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the April 1 and October 1 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Any such installment of interest or Additional Interest, if any, not punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered Holders on such Interest Payment Date, and may be paid to the registered Holders at the close of business on a special interest payment date to be fixed by the Trustee for the payment of such defaulted interest, notice whereof shall be given to the registered Holders not less than 10 days prior to such special interest payment date, or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. The Notes will be payable as to principal, Redemption Price, Purchase Price, interest and Additional Interest, if any, at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose within or without the City and State of New York, or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest and Additional Interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders, provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal, Redemption Price and Purchase Price of, and interest and Additional Interest (if any) on, all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided wire transfer instructions to the Trustee or the Paying Agent. Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

 

3. Paying Agent and Registrar. Initially, HSBC Bank USA, the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company may act in any such capacity.

 

4. Indenture. The Company issued $157.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the Notes under an Indenture dated as of April 15, 2003 (the “Indenture”) between the Company, the Guarantors party thereto from time to time and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (15 U.S.C. Code §§ 77aaa-77bbbb). The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and such


Act for a statement of such terms. The Notes are general obligations of the Company. The Company may issue Additional Notes under the Indenture.

 

5. Optional Redemption. At any time, the Company may, at its option, redeem all or part of the Notes at any time at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (a) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed and (b) as determined by the Quotation Agent, the sum of the present value of the principal amount of such Notes at April 15, 2009 plus the present value of the remaining scheduled payments of interest on such Notes to and including April 15, 2009 discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 50 basis points, together, in either case with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the Redemption Date.

 

6. Special Redemption. At any time, or from time to time in the event the Company completes one or more Equity Offerings on or before April 15, 2006, the Company may, at its option, use the net cash proceeds from any such Equity Offerings to redeem up to 35% of the principal amount of the Notes (a “Special Redemption”) at a Redemption Price of 112.750% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to the Redemption Date, provided, however, that (a) at least 65% of the original principal amount of the Notes issued under the Indenture remains outstanding immediately after each such Special Redemption; and (b) each such Special Redemption shall occur not more than 120 days after the date of the closing of the applicable Equity Offering.

 

7. Mandatory Redemption. Except as set forth in Paragraph 9 below with respect to repurchases of Notes in certain events, the Company shall not be required to make mandatory redemption or repurchase payments with respect to the Notes.

 

8. Selection and Notice of Redemption. Subject to the provisions of the Indenture, a notice of redemption will be mailed 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 $1,000 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 ceases to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

 

If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select the Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed (a) in compliance with the requirements of the national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed; or (b) if the Notes are not listed on any national securities exchange, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate.

 

9. Repurchase at Option of Holder.

 

(a) Change of Control Offer. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control (unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem the Notes as described in paragraph 5 above and in the Indenture), the Company shall be required to make an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) to repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof) of each Holder’s Notes at a Purchase Price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to the date of repurchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture. Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Company shall mail a notice to each Holder setting forth the procedures governing the Change of Control Offer as required by the Indenture.

 

(b) Net Proceeds Offer. If on the 366th day after an Asset Sale the Company has not applied or invested the Net Cash Proceeds relating to such Asset Sale as set forth in clauses (3)(A) and (3)(B) of paragraph (a) of Section 4.10 of the Indenture (each, a “Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date”), such aggregate amount of Net Cash Proceeds which has not been applied or invested on or before such Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date as permitted in clauses (3)(A) and (3)(B) of paragraph (a) of Section 4.10 of the Indenture (each, a


Net Proceeds Offer Amount”) shall be applied by the Company to make an offer to purchase (the “Net Proceeds Offer”) pursuant to Sections 3.10 and 4.10 of the Indenture to all Holders and, and at the Company’s option, to all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes on a date (the “Net Proceeds Offer Payment Date”) not less than 30 days following the applicable Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date, from all Holders pro rata, the maximum amount of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness equal to the Net Proceeds Offer Amount with respect to the Notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the Purchase Date.

 

Each Net Proceeds Offer will be mailed to the record Holders as shown on the register of Holders within 30 days following the Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date, with a copy to the Trustee, and shall comply with the procedures set forth in the Indenture. Upon receiving notice of the Net Proceeds Offer, Holders may elect to tender their Notes in whole or in part in integral multiples of $1,000 in exchange for cash. To the extent Holders properly tender Notes (along with any other Indebtedness of the Company properly tendered) in an amount exceeding the Net Proceeds Offer Amount, the tendered Notes will be purchased pro rata based on the aggregate amounts of Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness of the Company properly tendered (and the Trustee shall select the tendered Notes of tendering Holders pro rata based on the amount of Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness of the Company properly tendered). A Net Proceeds Offer shall remain open for a period of 20 Business Days or such longer period as may be required by law.

 

(c) Excess Cash Flow Offer. If on the last day of each fiscal year of the Company (each, a “Measurement Date”), (1) the Company has any Term Loan Indebtedness outstanding, (2) the Company has Excess Cash Flow for the fiscal year ended on such Measurement Date, and (3) after giving effect to any repayment of Term Loan Indebtedness and/or Excess Cash Flow Offer (assuming the Company purchases the maximum amount of Notes possible in such offer), the sum of the Company’s cash, Cash Equivalents and amounts available for borrowing under the revolving portion of its Credit Facilities (after giving effect to any borrowing base limitations) would be equal to or greater than $38.0 million, then the Company shall, no later than the Excess Cash Flow Offer Date, apply an amount (the “Initial Excess Cash Flow Amount”) equal to (a) 75% of the Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year to prepay, repay, redeem or repurchase (and permanently reduce the commitments under) Term Loan Indebtedness (whether or not required by the terms of the documentation governing such Term Loan Indebtedness), and (b) 25% of the Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year (or, if less, the amount equal to the difference between (i) 75% of the Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year and (ii) the amount used to prepay, repay, redeem or repurchase Term Loan Indebtedness pursuant to clause (a) hereof) to make an offer (an “Excess Cash Flow Offer”) to the Holders of Notes and any other Indebtedness ranking equally with the Notes and having similar provisions requiring the Company to prepay, repay, redeem or repurchase such Indebtedness from Excess Cash Flow to purchase on a pro rata basis in proportion to the respective principal amounts (or accreted value, in the case of Indebtedness other than the Notes issued with original issue discount) of the Notes and such other Indebtedness then outstanding at a Purchase Price in cash equal to 100% of the principal amount (or accreted value, in the case of Indebtedness other than the Notes issued with original issue discount) of the Notes or such other Indebtedness to be purchased (the “Excess Cash Flow Purchase Price”), together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date fixed for the purchase of the Notes pursuant to such Excess Cash Flow Offer in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.

 

If on any Measurement Date, the Company (1) has no Term Loan Indebtedness outstanding, (2) has Excess Cash Flow for the fiscal year ending on such Measurement Date and (3) after giving effect to any Excess Cash Flow Offer contemplated hereby would have Minimum Liquidity, then the Company shall, no later than the Excess Cash Flow Offer Date, apply an amount (the “Reduced Excess Cash Flow Amount”) equal to 25% of the Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year to make an Excess Cash Flow Offer to the Holders of Notes and such other Indebtedness ranking equally with the Notes and having similar provisions requiring the Company to prepay, repay, redeem or repurchase such Indebtedness from Excess Cash Flow to purchase on a pro rata basis in proportion to the respective principal amounts (or accreted value, in the case of Indebtedness other than the Notes issued with original issue discount) of the Notes and such other Indebtedness then outstanding at a Purchase Price in cash equal to the Excess Cash Flow Purchase Price, together with accrued and


unpaid interest thereon to the date fixed for the purchase of the Notes pursuant to such Excess Cash Flow Offer in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.

 

Each Excess Cash Flow Offer will be mailed to all record Holders as shown on the register of Holders at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Excess Cash Flow Offer Date, with a copy to the Trustee, and shall comply with the procedures set forth in the Indenture. Upon receiving notice of the Excess Cash Flow Offer, Holders may elect to tender their Notes in whole or in part in integral multiples of $1,000 in exchange for cash. To the extent Holders properly tender Notes (along with any other pari passu Indebtedness of the Company properly tendered) in an amount exceeding the Excess Cash Flow Amount, the tendered Notes will be purchased on a pro rata based on the aggregate amounts of Notes tendered (and the Trustee shall select the tendered Notes of tendering Holders pro rata based on the amount of Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness of the Company properly tendered). An Excess Cash Flow Offer shall remain open for a period of 20 Business Days or such longer period as may be required by law.

 

10. Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. 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 Company may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, it need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a record date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date.

Without the consent of any Holder of a Note, the Indenture and the Notes may be amended or supplemented to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, to provide for the assumption of the Company’s obligations to Holders of the Notes in case of a merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets pursuant to Article V of the Indenture, to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of the Notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under the Indenture of any such Holder, or to comply with the Trust Indenture Act or to terminate, replace, amend, modify or supplement any Security Document as provided in Section 3(e) of the Deposit Agreement as in effect on the date of the Indenture.

No past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Company, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation.
