W I T N E S S E T H

WHEREAS, the Company has heretofore executed and delivered to the Trustee an indenture (as supplemented and in effect on the date hereof, the “Indenture”), dated as of June 26, 2013 providing for the issuance of 12.0% Senior Unsecured PIK Notes due 2018 (the “Securities”);

WHEREAS, the Indenture provides that under certain circumstances the Subsidiary Guarantor shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture pursuant to which the Subsidiary Guarantor shall unconditionally guarantee all of the Company’s Obligations under the Securities and the Indenture on the terms and conditions set forth herein (the “Note Guarantee”); and

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 8.01 of the Indenture, the Trustee is authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Subsidiary Guarantor and the Trustee mutually covenant and agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities as follows:

1. CAPITALIZED TERMS. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.
